A Dent In The Earth

There’s a pretty hefty dent in the Earth's magnetic field and it’s giving scientists cause for concern.

The Earth’s magnetic field is vital for protecting the planet from the Sun’s rays, but an area of weakness in the field has been detected which is making experts nervous.

The weak area is a region called the South Atlantic Anomaly and it’s been studied by NASA over recent years.

According to ScienceAlert, the area in the field between South America and Africa is being described as a “pothole in space”.

While the region doesn’t post an immediate threat to life, it could have a big impact on man-made structures in our orbit.

It means that spacecraft and satellites which stay in the Earth’s magnetic field as they orbit the planet could face technical difficulties as the protection from the sun’s rays is reduced. Exposure in this way could lead to critical damage in the long term.

"The magnetic field is actually a superposition of fields from many current sources," geophysicist Terry Sabaka from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Centre said back in 2020.

"The observed SAA can be also interpreted as a consequence of weakening dominance of the dipole field in the region," said fellow NASA Goddard geophysicist Weijia Kuang.

"More specifically, a localized field with reversed polarity grows strongly in the SAA region, thus making the field intensity very weak, weaker than that of the surrounding regions."

"Even though the SAA is slow-moving, it is going through some change in morphology, so it's also important that we keep observing it by having continued missions," said Sabaka.  READ MORE...

KEEPING THE REPUBLICANS FROM POWER EVER AGAIN

My parents raised me a DEMOCRAT but after receiving an MBA, I decided that the Democratic Party was incorrect in its approach.

HOWEVER, the Republicans seem to care more about the wealthy than they do the middle class and/or the general public.  Yes, it is true that many billionaires are Democrats but they use Republican principles in managing their money and their companies.

The Republicans gave us NIXON and BUSH Jr who LIED about WMDs and as a result we went to war in the Middle East.  Then, we had Reagan who believed in supply side economics, followed by TRUMP who built up then destroyed America because of his polarization attitude and behavior.

The USA has been moving toward SOCIALISM ever since WWII even though the Republicans say they are against Socialism...   EVERYTHUING PUBLIC is SOCIALISM...  imagine that!!!  and, our biggest move towards SOCIALISM is SOCIAL SECURITY and MEDICARE...  the only real difference between a democratic republic and socialism is we do not own business and industry yet.

I have lived in the LOWER MIDDLE CLASS all my life and I personally believe that the WEALTHY MILLIONAIRES and BILLIONAIRES should pay for the rest of us.  Do you really think that they need all that money?

ROBOTS are going to replace jobs and it will be up to the BILLIONAIRES to give the rest of us an annual salary since we will no longer be able to work.

We should have the following FREE:

1. Education
2. Income
3. Housing
4. Food
5. Medical
6. Clothing
7. Transportation

In order to achieve these goals, we must keep the Republicans out of political office FOREVER...

• We need to resdistrict in all states to create Democratic Power Districts
• We need to make sure high education is liberal
• We need to make sure that mainstream media is liberal
• We need to make sure that the courts are liberal
• We need to make sure that DOJ/FBI are liberal
• We need to make sure the military is liberal
• We need to make sure the governors are liberal
• We need to make sure the supreme court always remains liberal

Article Referenced in Newspaper Never Published

OpenAI's ChatGPT is flooding the internet with a tsunami of made-up facts and disinformation — and that's rapidly becoming a very real problem for the journalism industry.

Reporters at The Guardian noticed that the AI chatbot had made up entire articles and bylines that it never actually published, a worrying side effect of democratizing tech that can't reliably distinguish truth from fiction.

Worse yet, letting these chatbots "hallucinate" — itself now a disputed euphemism — sources could serve to undermine legitimate news sources.

"Huge amounts have been written about generative AI’s tendency to manufacture facts and events," The Guardian's head of editorial innovation Chris Moran wrote. "But this specific wrinkle — the invention of sources — is particularly troubling for trusted news organizations and journalists whose inclusion adds legitimacy and weight to a persuasively written fantasy."

"And for readers and the wider information ecosystem, it opens up whole new questions about whether citations can be trusted in any way," he added, "and could well feed conspiracy theories about the mysterious removal of articles on sensitive issues that never existed in the first place."

It's not just journalists at The Guardian. Many other writers have found that their names were attached to sources that ChatGPT had drawn out of thin air.

Kate Crawford, an AI researcher and author of "Atlas of AI," was contacted by an Insider journalist who had been told by ChatGPT that Crawford was one of the top critics of podcaster Lex Fridman. The AI tool offered up a number of links and citations linking Crawford to Fridman — which were entirely fabricated, according to the author.  READ MORE...

My Corner of the World

I was born white or caucasian or non-hispanic white...  and, I don't really give a shit what you call me because I am what I am...  just like you are who you are.

• If you are black, that is NOT MY FAULT
• If you are a descendant of slavery, that is NOT MY FAULT
• If you are undeducated, THAT IS NOT MY FAULT
• IF you are addicted to drugs, THAT IS NOT MY FAULT

I had no influence over your parents

I had no influence over slave owners

I had no influence over your desire to be ignorant

I had no influence over your mental weaknesses

NOBODY GAVE ME ANYTHING after graduating from high school with a "C-" average...

I paid for my college education by working full time and I also paid for my education by enlisting in the military during the VIETNAM WAR...

No one pulled strings to get me my first job after college because I was already working at the company while attending college.

I have no athletic skills

I have no musical skills

I have no artistic skills

I have no acting skills

I have no mechanical skills

I have no handyman skills

And yet, I managed to earn both an undergraduate and graduate degree and work in middle to upper management jobs (Down South in Low Wage Jurisdictions) for 45 years...

And during those 45 years, my refusal to KISS ASS and follow the rules, got me FIRED 10 TIMES during my career...

I am probably one of the few people with a masters degree working for $10/hour answering phone calls taking orders for TALBOTS.

DOES THIS SOUND LIKE I AM A BENEFICIARY OF WHITE PRIVILEGE???

It just burns me up when I hear all about this white privilege shit and if you are white then you are automatically a recipient of the privilege.  Most of these intellectual black don't know what they are talking about...  and, instead of making me sympathetic to your cause, it has made me angry and resentful that you have the "balls" to make those claims towards white people in general.

I have earned my corner of the world and I am not giving it up for NOBODY...

Our Universe - Gravity Creates Light

A star is being consumed by a distant supermassive black hole. Astronomers call this a tidal disruption event (TDE). As the black hole rips apart the star, two jets of material moving with almost the speed of light are launched in opposite directions. One of the jets was aimed directly at Earth. Image credit: Carl Knox (OzGrav, ARC Centre of Excellence for Gravitational Wave Discovery, Swinburne University of Technology)

Physicists Discover that Gravity Can Create Light
Researchers have discovered that in the exotic conditions of the early universe, waves of gravity may have shaken space-time so hard that they spontaneously created radiation.

The physical concept of resonance surrounds us in everyday life. When you’re sitting on a swing and want to go higher, you naturally start pumping your legs back and forth. You very quickly find the exact right rhythm to make the swing go higher. If you go off rhythm then the swing stops going higher. This particular kind of phenomenon is known in physics as a parametric resonance.

Your legs act as an external pumping mechanism. When they match the resonant frequency of the system, in this case your body sitting on a swing, they are able to transfer energy to the system making the swing go higher.

These kinds of resonances happen all over the place, and a team of researchers have discovered that an exotic form of parametric resonance may have even occurred in the extremely early universe.

Perhaps the most dramatic event to occur in the entire history of the universe was inflation. This is a hypothetical event that took place when our universe was less than a second old. During inflation our cosmos swelled to dramatic proportions, becoming many orders of magnitude larger than it was before. The end of inflation was a very messy business, as gravitational waves sloshed back and forth throughout the cosmos.  READ MORE...

Let Them Have What They Want

A day or two ago, I read an article where the former AG Barr made some comments that I was against but the more I thought about them, the more I realized that he was right...

He said that Donald Trump was indicted exclusively to get him nominated as the GOP candidate for President in the 2024 election SO THAT BIDEN COULD BEAT HIM AGAIN...  and, while Biden is older than he should be to run for President, TRUMP is worse, so the election will go the the Democrats.

For 6 years now and it will continue for 2 more, the Democrats have been after TRUMP...  consequently, our nation is divided more than it has been divided since the civil war.

This political division is exacerbated by the BLM/CRT/Crime/Immigration movements in this country...  the hatred between the whites and blacks is increasing everyday...  and, will only get worse...

BEYOND THE POINT OF NO RETURN...  is where we are now in this country...

The Republicans can offer no solutions to counter the Democratic attacks...  all they want to do is hold hearings knowing that the Democratic DOJ/FBI will DO NOTHING about their recommendations...

While this is dangerous, it has gone beyond the point of turning back and our enemies like China and Russia will take advantage of our weaknesses.

THEREFORE...  I say give them what they want!!!

1. Give the blacks reparations
2. Teach CRT in public schools
3. Let's MANDATE WOKE nationwide
4. Hire blacks over whites
5. Let's go into SOCIALISM balls to the wall
6. Let's reduce the size of our military
7. Let's reduce the size of the police
8. Let's have OPEN BORDERS forever
9. Let's do away with grades in COLLEGES

George SOROS is a billionaire democrat who is funding the liberals for whatever reason.  He obviously has a hidden agenda and since he is a billionaire, HE MUST BE RIGHT...  so, let's follow his example and do what he says...

While we are doing this, I also think we should GO BALLS TO THE WALL on AI/ROBOTS and if we are lucky, we can have 80% of the jobs replaced by robots before Biden's second term ends...

FINALLY,  I think we should put all our resources into going green so that we can completely abandon fossil fuels by 2025...  It don't matter to us or to the rest of the world that China, Russia, South America, Africa, and the Middle East ARE NOT GIVING UP FOSSIL FUELS....  

Let's just give them the middle finger and do what the hell we want....

BTW, if we can DESTROY the republicans in the process so they never get into power again...  all the better...

Ancient City of Sigiriya

Rising majestically 650 feet (200m) above the Sri Lankan landscape, Sigiriya is an ancient city built on a megalithic rock that has puzzled visitors for centuries. This remote wonder, located in the Matale District, is designated a cultural World Heritage Site and continues to intrigue experts who seek to unravel its mysteries. From the fortress and palace to the pleasure garden, Sigiriya's history is steeped in intrigue, making it a fascinating site for research, study, and speculation.

5,000 Years of History
Archaeological evidence indicates that the area surrounding Sigiriya has been inhabited since prehistoric times, with rock shelters dating back almost 5000 years to the Mesolithic period. Moreover, many rock shelters and caves in the vicinity were used by Buddhist monks and ascetics from as early as the 3rd century BC. Despite this rich history, Sigiriya is perhaps best known for its transformation into a palace, fortress, and pleasure garden by King Kashyapa in the 5th century.

The Rise and Fall of King Kashyapa
King Kashyapa was the cunning son of Dhatusena. Kashyapa's thirst for power drove him to engineer the assassination of his own father and overthrow his rightful heir, Moggallana. Fearing retribution from his vengeful brother, Kashyapa retreated to the towering rock of Sigiriya, where he built a seemingly impenetrable palace fortress. But his reign was short-lived, as Moggallana's forces overtook the fortress in a battle that saw Kashyapa take his own life. After his demise, the site was returned to the peaceful hands of Buddhist monks and became a monastery for centuries to come.  READ MORE...
