Archaeologists working in Peru have uncovered a 3,000-year-old sealed corridor dubbed “the condor’s passageway” that likely leads to other chambers inside what was once a massive temple complex pertaining to the ancient Chavin culture. Located around 190 miles (306 km) northeast of Lima, the Chavin de Huantar archeological site is among the culture’s most important centers, thriving from around 1,500-550 B.C. The Chavin are well-known for their advanced art, often featuring depictions of birds and felines. They date back to the first sedentary farming communities in the northern highlands of the Peruvian Andes, more than 2,000 years before the Inca...

A Michigan hair salon owner says anyone who does not identify as either a man or woman is "not welcome" at her business and should instead go to a pet groomer — a statement that sparked outrage from the LGBTQ+ community. "If a human identifies as anything other than a man/woman, please seek services at a local pet groomer," a now-deleted Facebook post from Studio 8 Hair Lab read. "You are not welcome at this salon. Period. Should you request to have a preferred pronoun used please note we may simply refer to you as ‘hey you.’" A Michigan hair...

Billionaire Elon Musk said on Wednesday he thinks China is interested in a cooperative international framework on artificial intelligence, from conversations he had when he visited China a few weeks ago. Musk made the remarks in a Twitter Space event with two U.S. congressmen, Democrat Ro Khanna and Republican Mike Gallagher. "China is definitely interested in working in a cooperative international framework for AI regulation," Musk said. He added that he has advocated for artificial intelligence regulations and oversight, including in his meetings in China. The remarks came on the same day that Musk launched his long-teased artificial intelligence startup,...

Automated real-time fact-checking is the future, but current AI still has a long way to go towards achieving it, say Joel Skadiang and Jaga Naidu from independent fact-checking platform Black Dot Research.In an era of rapidly advancing technology, large language models (LLMs) have emerged as powerful tools capable of generating human-like text and transforming various industries. LLMs, a form of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, are computerised language models that have been pre-trained on large textual datasets. With these large databases at their disposal, these language models are capable of generating detailed text based on simple user prompts, capturing much of...

Just published my first ebook “The Combesville Dome 1888”. It is a story of a group of people who live in 2188. The Dome program is a recreational form where people can spend a weekend living their lives in a different era, completely cut off from the rest of the outside world. Not bad for an 82 year old, first time author, even if I do say so myself.

A Florida State Senator who represents Jacksonville is urging Gov. Ron DeSantis to call another special session on property insurance this summer with the single goal of creating savings and benefits for homeowners. “Governor, come home and take care of your state.

Diversity activists are accusing the entertainment industry of “corporate blackface” and running out of “White guilt” after a number of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) executives at top entertainment and media companies suddenly stepped down or were forced out of their roles. Between June 20 and July 3, at least five executives overseeing DEI initiatives at leading entertainment companies including Disney, Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery, left their posts. All the outgoing execs are Black women. An LA Times story published Tuesday linked the high-profile exits to the backlash against “wokeness” by conservative politics and pundits, as many speculate whether...

In the absence of official scrutiny of Washington’s spending spree on Ukraine, The Grayzone conducted an independent audit of US funding for the country. We discovered a series of wasteful, highly unusual expenditures the Biden administration has yet to explain. During a recent discussion with New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof, Administrator of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Samantha Power, touted her organization’s push to guarantee transparency for US taxpayer funds sent to Ukraine. “We are involved in funding efforts at ensuring judicial integrity, which is intrinsically important to building Ukraine’s democracy and its integration plans to...

Allan Lichtman – famous for correctly predicting the outcome of every U.S. presidential election since 1984 (barring 2000) – says Donald Trump is now the mainstream in the Republican Party, and no other GOP presidential hopeful stands a chance of winning the party’s nomination.The American University professor, himself a fierce critic of Trump, said ex-MAGA rival Ron DeSantis was an “abysmal candidate” who lacks Trump’s appeal and personal charm.Lichtman was clear that other candidates, sometimes described as standard-bearers of the “Republican mainstream”, had no chance – and were no longer the mainstream. “Here’s another mistake that all the commentators make…...

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on July 11 announced new proposed rules for lead paint in a bid to prevent hundreds of thousands of children from being exposed to the toxic substance. Officials predict that the rule will reduce lead exposures for 250,000 to 500,000 children younger than the age of 6 each year, the agency said in a statement. The mandate would enhance the EPA’s regulations under section 402 of the Toxic Substances Control Act, which would revise the standards for how much lead dust can be on floors, window sills, and other locations in older buildings. “The...

Former President Donald Trump continues to dominate the Republican primary field, more than doubling his closest competitor’s support, according to a YouGov/Economist poll. The poll also found President Joe Biden and Trump are neck and neck in a hypothetical general election race. Trump sits atop the field with 48 percent of support among registered voters who plan to vote in the GOP primary, placing him 26 points ahead of Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) with 22 percent. A YouGov poll conducted for Yahoo News last month showed similar results among a sample of U.S. adults. Trump landed at 48 percent in...

Mainor said legislative Democrats drove her out of the party for breaking what they think are party norms including being soft on crime. At a Tuesday news conference outside the Georgia Capitol, she said they...
