You may ignore the obvious puns. Some of us don't have the same self-control.
Scotland is not a rich country. For this new announcement I wonder what the 'monthly' expenditure is.

We have 3 kinds of neutrinos that change as they travel, maybe just maybe dark neutrinos don't travel. Speculation ain't news by a long shot but the Cosmos is a stage for entertainment. My human bias
is believing one thing leads to another. Its probably 2 things create a third....

If you got lost just remember that the magical transformation begins when Time stops, making the black hole an eternal space making factory.
Eternal up until energy and space can balance no longer and rips bringing the entire cosmos into a lower energy state - even black holes die in such a rip.

We see what dark energy is doing but how?
By converting time into space inside a singularity.
Not just converting mass into energy like a star but something bigger.

I don't know what comprises dark matter exactly but I know where it came from. It came from the annihilation of matter and anti matter, Besides the energy release from matter being converted, there is a certain amount of residue in which the energy converted to matter. But what kind of matter? Certainly one which had the property of gravity but not made of normal atoms.
How about an experiment to create dark matter? We need a shitload (scientific term) of antimatter and measure what dissappears in annihilation radiation (E) and how much is converted to Mass and how much disappears (C). This will be a first measurment. The results will give us more understanding and questions.

I have a sneaking suspicion the mass is all quarks and neutrinos with no protons, neutrons and electrons. If they loan me the LHC I might blow it up but at least learn something new.

4 helicopters it seems were used to fast rope down to the tanker. It took just 7 minutes for our excellent SBS boys to secure the ship, and detain the hijackers who will now doubt face substantial prison terms and subsequent deportation!!!!!!!

The hit was not caught in right field and when he finally threw to 3rd base the runner was on his way home when he FELL DOWN. The pitcher got distracted and forgot to back up home plate. The runner got up and the 3rd baseman threw home which the catcher could not catch. With no back up the ball sailed away allowing the runner to reach home which he kept comicly pounding with his hands.

whirlled series game 4 was won on the last play which contained 5 errors on that 1 play alone. Still that was better than the Washington football team. They didnt even bother to recover their own fumble on the goal line. What I see is that sports are not taking 2o2o seriously and why should they. There are more serious things.

The motion of sperm mirrors the sprial progression of DNA.
The same motion of the solar system in its orbit around the galaxy.
Its the same mathematic and geometric path a pendulum takes through time. The human egg also sprials in its free fall journey through the Fallopian tube.

Ain't life cool. At least its the way I see it.

My random thoughts are not news either but why be critical?
Watch a baseball game and you may see statisics being made or an unlikely tremendous play so while we see the same game we each bring something different to the experience. Parts of the 'unlikely' IS enjoyment of the game. SO this is why baseball entertains us. It is a demonstration of the wierdness of quantum mechanics. It is true anyone who says they understand quantum mechanics - doesn't.

Sometimes it may even be a boring game, which is wierd in itself.
I've wondered about the split screen experiment since I was 13
Probabilities have shown us that we can get entangled with a destructive moron becoming President. We can complain when reality isn't rational BUT ITS NOT. Perhaps we should make a new kind of computer that uses spooky action at a distance and employ only entangled atoms - instead of electrons and calculate an accidental utopia just for grins and giggles.
But a game of all home runs would not appeal to us for long.
Wierdness is a strength And Not A Weakness.
It is our raison d'etre.

I listened to the show about sperm this morning on NPRs Science Friday. But somehow I cannot imagine that is news. I'm pretty sure I've seen some HD documentaries which show sperm doing the corkscrew motion. Plus, from Antonie van Leeuwenhoek who first saw (his own) magnified sperm in motion, people weren't stupid and so must have appreciated that they were observing what they could see only in 2 dimensions. So, interesting story, but I think it's being hyped.
