Has Quark-Gluon Plasma Been Observed Yet?

- Tommaso Dorigo

I will start this brief post with a disclaimer - I am not a nuclear physicist (rather, I am a lesser being, a sub-nuclear physicist). Jokes aside, my understanding and knowledge of the dynamics of high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions and the phases of matter that can exist at those very high densities and temperatures is overall quite poor. read more [...]

Eggonomics: White Egg Donors Get Paid More, Is That Eugenics Or Just Demand?

- Hank Campbell

There are about 3X as many white women as black in the US but white women get 8X as much for donated eggs and Diane M. Tober in "Eggonomics" suggests wealthy people looking for specific traits has gotten to the point of being eugenics.read more [...]

The US Government's New Plan To Prevent Future Hobbit Behavior

- Hank Campbell

The Biden administration is in its waning days, but he is not letting up on his breathtaking levels of social authoritarianism. It's not bad enough that the average age of the young people who put men on the moon and World War II are no longer adult enough to be off mommy's health insurance, he has now declared that if they buy pipe tobacco they are at risk for cancer. Or becoming a hobbit.So if you are under age 30, get ready to show ID. It is federal law and one more thing store clerks have to obey government about.read [...]

The Biden Surgeon General Just Issued A Health Advisory...About Being A Parent

- Hank Campbell

One way to groom people into a social authoritarian, centralized government mindset is to keep them in a panic about everything. Then you give everyone a diagnosis and tell them it's not their fault. Using his agencies, President Biden has done a lot to erode confidence in government science and health. He bizarrely tried to use CDC to create nationwide rent control, he got EPA epidemiologists to hijack ponds on family farms under the pretense that they were "navigable waters of the United States", the list goes on.read more [...]

Tom Girardi, Lawyer In The 'Erin Brockovich' Case, Found Guilty Of Fraud

- Hank Campbell

Tom Girardi is one of the lawyers who shot to prominence after they got California utility PG&E to issue a shocking settlement in a case where it was alleged that hexavalent chromium was causing diseases in Hinckley, California.Where were the bodies? They didn't exist, according to science, and history has shown it to be a hoax. There are no more cases of cancer, disease, or anything else. Like President Biden claiming a "cancer alley" in, unsurprisingly, a state that votes Republican, it just exploited the average to get a jury to side against a company.read more [...]

California Claims 100 Days Of 100% Renewable Energy - Here's The Truth

- Hank Campbell

California activists are cheering a new report that claims for 100 days, the state was entirely powered by alternative energy and therefore solar and wind are ready to rule.This is a puzzle when California has America's most expensive electricity costs and people statewide are claiming about a 100% increase in electricity costs over the last 8 years and $500 bills last month.The details tell the three truths that paid activists for the solar and wind industry omit. read more [...]

Ford Just Walked Away From $9 Billion To Not Have To Make More Electric Vehicles

- Hank Campbell

American automobile companies have been dealing with government regulations for a hundred years so they know to go with the high-publicity political flow and then quietly fix the issues later.(1) During the housing bubble of 2008, Ford went to Congress and agreed car companies absolutely needed a bailout.Then they didn't take it while competitors did, and were suddenly stuck with caving in to government-enabled union demands to have janitors make $50 an hour while Ford stock took off. They didn't have bureaucrats wanting to sign off on every decision the way General Motors did.read more [...]

Dear Media: Fertility Isn't Lower, American Women Are Just Having Fewer Babies

- Hank Campbell

Progressives are concerned that some US states have adopted abortion cut-off dates equal to those of France, which only raised it to 14 weeks in 2022. CDC shows American births are dropping so low that the Biden administration may need to start subsidizing the pro-life movement.read more [...]

20 Years Of German Alternative Energy Cost Them $500,000,000,000 And Drove Consumers Costs Up

- Hank Campbell

There is now enough of data related to Germany lurching to the anti-science left this decade, both in food and energy, that is is easy to see why other companies should stop making the same mistake.Solar and wind not only don't work, they can't work as long as old technology is subsidized. It prevents better technology from being developed because that is not where the easy government money is.read more [...]

China Is About To Dominate The US and France In Actual Clean Energy

- Hank Campbell

American environmentalists and the solar and wind industries propped up by taxes on poor people love to talk about how much their business has increased.It certainly has. Mandates and subsidies will do that. What those cannot do is make a meaningful difference. The world has spent $4 trillion on solar and wind subsidies and conventional energy usage has only declined about 0.1%. Yet for that same $4 trillion we could've powered enough homes and businesses that climate change would be like Y2K - a conspiracy some claim was never going to happen because it was prevented.read more [...]

Science Leads To American Soybean Exports Boom

- Hank Campbell

Mexican farmers want to use more science in agriculture for two reasons. First, they don't trust the government officials they know are colluding with activists opposing science. Their country has vast oil reserves during record high prices and the industry is controlled by the government and still loses money.Mexican farmers know how to grow food, the last thing they want are urban activists and bureaucrats doing to food what they do to energy.The second is that they know science is why America can export to Mexico and China cheaper than countries with low labor costs can grow it.read more [...]

Proposal: Call Skoton The Dark Photon

- Tommaso Dorigo

I am presently in Cairns, sitting in a parallel session of the "Quark Confinement and the Hadron Spectrum" conference, where I am convening a session on Statistical Methods for Physics Analysis in the XXI Century, giving a talk on the optimization of the SWGO experiment, and playing the piano at a concert for the conference, in addition of course to visiting the area. Anyway, all of the above is too much information to you, as this post is about something else.read more [...]

WHO Extends Its Highest Emergency Level For...Monkeypox?

- Hank Campbell

The World Health Organisation, the last major body to accept that COVID-19 was a pandemic, is out in front extending its highest emergency level over, of all things, monkeypox.We now know WHO held off on declaring COVID-19 an emergency because former President Donald Trump said it was an emergency and we should cut travel from China. Then he instructed FDA to prepare emergency use authorization standards for a vaccine they believed the private sector could create fast if government got out of the way.(1) read more [...]

The Sound Of Martian Winds

- News Staff

Mars is no vacation paradise. The temperatures fluctuate dramatically and average minus 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The surface is red dust punctuated by craters, canyons, and volcanoes. On the plus side, the atmosphere is extremely thin, comprising only about 1% of the density of Earth’s, and gravity is 60 percent lower, so you can finally dunk a basketball.With all of those challenges, Martian landers have still been able capture wind measurements — some gauging the cooling rate of heated materials when winds blow over them, others using cameras to image “tell-tales” that blow in the wind. Both anemometric methods have yielded [...]

Astrologers Deduce Personalities As Poorly As Anyone Else

- Hank Campbell

Astrology is one of those things that makes no sense to literate people. The position of stars a billion light-years away determined your personality, but if you are in the eastern world that personality could be completely different than if you were born 2000 miles west? See: I was a Virgo this morning, now I am a Leo! I totally feel different.read more [...]

Drunk Tree Fall Hard: Older Adult Alcohol Doubles Risk Of Brain Bleeds From Falls

- News Staff

Alcohol is the best-marketed carcinogen out there. Cigarettes and obesity only wish they were able to devote the money to positive imaging that alcohol, one of the top three lifestyle killers, receives. Instead, governments devote billions to education and awareness of those two while the only tepid warning about alcohol is not to drive after you roll the dice on cancer.When it comes to BPA, PFAS, or weedkillers, government epidemiologists say any presence should be considered pathological but say nothing at all about alcohol use despite it being scientifically shown, unlike most epidemiology, and addictive.read more [...]

Antimatter Over Eurasia

Did Ancient Turks Beat The Greeks To Precession By 10,000 Years?

- Hank Campbell

If you ever get the chance to visit Turkey, I encourage you to do so. Like Civil War battlefields in the southern US, you can trip and stumble across something old - except in the case of Turkey it could be 2,000 years old.Some sites are archaeological research and you can't just wander around like you can in Cappadocia. That is the case with the Göbekli Tepe temples in southern Turkey. It was inhabited in neolithic times and is ground zero in the culture wars over whether agriculture begat civilization or the other way around. Archaeological evidence shows they processed [...]

USMCA Panel Likely To Side With Science Over Activists On Corn In Mexico

- Hank Campbell

Environmentalists prey on the poor, which ironically harms the poor the most because they are most impacted by high-cost foods like the kind made using the organic process of companies that fund environmentalists to undermine competitors.Mexico has many problems, and they are nearly all caused because people with money control too much of government. It's a country deep in oil, with a government monopoly on oil, that still somehow manages to lose money on oil during record oil prices. read more [...]
