The ATLAS and CMS collaborations are using state-of-the-art machine learning techniques to search for exotic-looking collisions that could indicate new physics. Credit: S Sioni/CMS-PHO-EVENTS-2021-004-2/M Rayner ============================================================================ Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing how new particles are detected in LHC experiments. By training AI to recognize and differentiate between typical and atypical jets, researchers can identify potential new physics hidden within particle collisions. Recent advancements were highlighted at a physics conference, showing the progress and potential of these AI applications. One of the primary goals of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments is to look for signs of new particles, which could explain...

Well, I hope the French election on Sunday offers a faint glimmer of hope. Across the United Kingdom almost every constituency voted for lefties of various stripes - not just victorious Labour lefties, but also Scots nationalist lefties, Irish republican lefties, eco-lefties, Islamo-lefties and, of course, duplicitous pseudo-conservative lefties: you can get it in any colour as long as it's red. So, if you're one of those Britons concerned about, say, transformative mass migration or the right to freedom of speech, things are going to spend the next few years getting worse before there is any prospect of course correction....

Curtis Murrah says he’d been a loyal customer with USAA for 28 years — until his wife rang him up one day saying she couldn’t make their mortgage payment because there wasn’t any money in their account. Murrah, who’s based in Georgia, says he took a closer look at his accounts and discovered someone was making deposits in and out of his accounts. “It was like they were playing mind games,” he told News 4 San Antonio. “They would deposit $9,800 then turn right around and withdraw $9,800. They would deposit $4,000, turn right around and withdrew it.” Murrah contacted...

On July 1, 2024, the US detained its most prominent political prisoner; its most obvious political prisoner probably since the incarceration of Japanese-Americans in World War 2. On July 1 2024, podcaster, entrepreneur, former Navy officer, and political advisor to President Trump, Stephen K Bannon, “surrendered”, in his words, to authorities, to begin serving four months’ incarceration at Danbury Federal Prison. FCI — Federal Correctional Institution – Danbury, in Danbury, Connecticut, is a serious prison. The handbook, which all inmates receive, reveals a range of minute restrictions on liberty, and even on any adult decision-making, that characterizes strict incarceration. Stephen...

Donald Trump has congratulated Nigel Farage on his General Election win in Clacton [District]. The former US president, who has long supported Mr Farage’s political career, posted about the victory on his social media platform, Truth Social. “Congratulations to Nigel Farage on his big WIN of a Parliament Seat Amid Reform UK Election Success,” he said. “Nigel is a man who truly loves his country.”

The Supreme Court’s decision on presidential immunity Monday made it more difficult for both special counsel Jack Smith and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to prosecute former President Donald Trump, throwing their indictments into serious question. The decision, which found former presidents are entitled to “at least presumptive immunity” from prosecution for all “official acts,” will force Smith to go back to the drawing board as Judge Tanya Chutkan weighs which portions of the indictment fall into that category and are covered by immunity. The process not only means a trial before the election is a virtual impossibility, but...

Couldn't be any worse than a live clown show......................

The January 6 Capitol breach has been called an attempted coup; it was not a coup, but a coup by the extreme left is possible in the future. Before I make my case, a few points should be made about January 6. David Harsany pointed out in the New York Post that the J6 protestors had no plan; a study at Harvard showed that most Jan 6 protestors did not believe they were overruling democracy, but preserving it: The documents show that Trump and his allies convinced an unquantifiable number of Americans that representative democracy in the United States was...

A Nigerian prophet has come under intense scrutiny after his prediction that the rapture and the end of the world would coincide on April 25, 2024, failed to materialise. Despite proclaiming to have been shown the date through divine revelations during trances, the prophet’s claims have sparked a mixture of ridicule and criticism across social media platforms. The prophet, with the handle @Prophetmetu on X, claimed he experienced the visions on two separate occasions, expressed his own trepidation about the revelations. In his statement, he emphasised the clarity of his visions, where he saw two distinct mountains and felt a...
