The Great BNHA Review: Characters or Check Lists?

Oh Characters...

The bread and butter to all stories.

The thing that gets a story from Point A to Point B, the thing that allows us to connect with the story and helps it feel alive. You can pretty much make any character for your story, from the gentle and kindhearted to the more rough around the edges... to making them likable or unlikable. There are many ways to write a character and how they can make your story come to life.

And by bringing this up you know where this is headed... that BNHA utterly failed at expanding their characters into being people we're supposed to care about.

I could make a long fucking list of how BNHA failed every single one of it's characters it introduced but to keep that from happening, I'm just going to either list certain characters or just group them together since some of them share one common thing that's holding them back from being good.

Starting off with!

Shota Aizawa:

He was supposed to a hardass with a hidden heart of gold for his students, but what he ENDED up as was a walking hypocrite who hated Izuku for no other than he was associated with All Might and couldn't control his quirk... and then CONTINUED to give Izuku a hard time and labeled him as the "problem child" like... I don't even have the energy to get mad here, I'm saving THAT for another time in this review.

Oh and then there's him holding up this ridiculously high standard for his students to reach or else he fails them... which is exactly what happened when he failed Sero in the finals but allowed Bakugou to pass for doing the same.

Which again his hypocrisy gets in the way of that!

And not once does he ever get called out or punished for his blantant abuse in power and instead gets complimented and praised for his methods as if he's the next Einstein.

Fucking end me.

The Todoroki Family:

Oh how Hori totally fucked you guys over in the end... Natsu I'd give a pass since he ended on a more believable note, but sadly I can't say the same for Rei and Fuyumi.

As they were never allowed to think bad of the guy that made their lives hell and were instead to jump on the forgiveness train and take Endeavor's side so they can be a "Happy family" again. Which... no, that's literally stockholm syndrome.

Class 1-A:

... (Sighs)

Oh my babies... oh my favorites... look how that monster Hori ruined you all...

He tried to have this found family dynamic for them all, only for it all to fall apart since... you know, they barely interacted at all and got any screentime.

And it also didn't help that Hori had all of them as bystanders to Izuku's suffering, make fun of his interests, and follow Bakugou when he led them to beat him into coming back. So it really doesn't work when you have these things on your mind and fails to convince you that they give a shit about Izuku and his wellbeing.

And the worst part is that they ALL look like they have stories waiting to be told, but we don't get any of that. At most they're only used to fight against the minions while the Cash Cow Triplets fight the big hero.

Every Female Character in this Series:

Oh boy what even is there to talk about? Since they barely have any personality of their own and are only made to be fanservice for the pervs that likes watching anime girls in bikinis. They definitely deserves much better and to be in a story that'll treat them with respect and dignity.

ESPECIALLY to those like Hagakure and Miruko.

All Might:

Oh All Might, how the story did you dirty.

If there's anyone in this story that I feel sorry for the most (That isn't Izuku) It's All Might.

All because of how he started off at the beginning, people clung to the idea that he's a quirkest asshole who Izuku needs to steer clear from... even though he's literally the one to save Izuku from literally living in misery.

All Might deserves to be an actual mentor and father figure for Izuku, not fucking Aizawa who openly expressed his hatred for the boy.

The League of Villains:

I already made a post on how the narrative did them dirty and I don't feel like repeating myself, so I'm just gonna leave a link here while adding this.

What was even the point of building them up to be forgiven by their foils if they were just gonna die in the end? It was all just a big time waster.

And of course, we can't talk about characters and how the author failed them without talking about...

Izuku Midoriya:

Oh Izuku... the most tragic and wasted main character I've ever seen in an anime series.

He started off so strong only to get worse as the series went on. He should've been the shining definition of what a hero SHOULD be! He should've been the one to realize how fucked their world was and strive to change it for the better and to prevent others like him from suffering like he did.

But... we didn't get any of that.

We don't get acknowledgment of his past, we don't get him rising from his pain and become something more. Instead we get a watered down version of him at the beginning who has NO reaction or introspection to anything whatsoever, not to the world they live in, to the way things are handled, and even to him losing OFA.

For some odd fucking reason, Izuku is never allowed to grow out "I'm worthless" mindset or realization that everyone in his life has failed him in one way or another. He just praises it all like the fanboy he is and just stays where he is.

And then there's the fact that he just flat out refuses to ever acknowledge his past in any meaningful way, as whenever he DOES bring it up, he talks about his past self as if he's a different person from him. To which I can kinda see how this could be symbolic of something... But it just doesn't work as it only makes him look horrible for forgetting his roots and just wanting to fit in with the other people with quirks. To which it somewhat feels like "Fuck the quirkless they're useless so why even focus on them?"

He's a hollow version of the idea of his character, just blankly reacting to things in front of him and praising Bakugou for being the best thing to come around. He honestly deserves better and deserves to be with a writer that won't bully him and give him the depth and development he needs.

Now who else am I missing...?

...

Oh yeah!

Katsuki Bakugou is still trash.

Look forward to the next part.

CAN WE HARNESS THE ENERGY OF A BLACK HOLE??

Blog#339

Wednesday, October 11th, 2023

Welcome back,

A remarkable prediction of Einstein's theory of general relativity -- the theory that connects space, time and gravity -- is that rotating black holes have enormous amounts of energy available to be tapped.

For the last 50 years, scientists have tried to come up with methods to unleash this power.

Now, in a U.S. National Science Foundation-funded study published in Physical Review D, physicists Luca Comisso of Columbia University and Felipe Asenjo of the Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez in Chile have found a new way to extract energy from black holes by breaking and rejoining magnetic field lines near the event horizon, the point at which nothing, not even light, can escape a black hole's gravitational pull.

"Black holes are commonly surrounded by a hot 'soup' of plasma particles that carry a magnetic field," said Comisso. "Our theory shows that when magnetic field lines disconnect and reconnect in just the right way, they can accelerate plasma particles to negative energies, and large amounts of black hole energy can be extracted."

The U.S. National Science Foundation-funded research results could allow astronomers to better estimate the spin of black holes and possibly discover a source of energy for the needs of an advanced civilization, Comisso said.

Comisso and Asenjo built their theory on the premise that reconnecting magnetic fields accelerates plasma particles in two different directions. One plasma flow is pushed against the black hole's spin, while the other is propelled in the spin's direction and can escape the clutches of the black hole. That releases power if the plasma swallowed by the black hole has negative energy.

"It is like a person could lose weight by eating candy with negative calories," said Comisso, who explained that essentially a black hole loses energy by eating negative-energy particles. "This might sound weird," he said, "but it can happen in a region called the ergosphere, where the spacetime continuum rotates so fast that every object spins in the same direction as the black hole."

Inside the ergosphere, magnetic reconnection is so extreme that the plasma particles are accelerated to velocities approaching the speed of light.

While it may sound like the stuff of science fiction, mining energy from black holes could be the answer to our future power needs.

"Thousands or millions of years from now, humanity might be able to survive around a black hole without harnessing energy from stars," Comisso said. "It is essentially a technological problem. If we look at the physics, there is nothing that prevents it."

Added Vyacheslav Lukin, a program director in NSF's Division of Physics, "The ideas and concepts in this work are truly fascinating, as is the potential translation of these studies of black hole astrophysics into the practical realm."

"WHATS INSIDE THE MOON??"

Physicists ‘bootstrap’ validity of string theory

NYU and Caltech scientists develop innovative mathematical approach to back existence of long-held framework explaining all physical reality

String theory, conceptualized more than 50 years ago as a framework to explain the formation of matter, remains elusive as a “provable” phenomenon. But a team of physicists has now taken a significant step forward in validating string theory by using an innovative mathematical method that points to its “inevitability.” 

String theory posits that the most basic building blocks of nature are not particles, but, rather, one-dimensional vibrating strings that move at different frequencies in determining the type of particle that emerges—akin to how vibrations of string instruments produce an array of musical notes.

In their work, reported in the journal Physical Review Letters, New York University and Caltech researchers posed the following question: “What is the math question to which string theory is the only answer?” This approach to understanding physics is known as the “bootstrap,” which is reminiscent of the adage about “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps”—producing results without additional assistance or, in this case, input.  

The bootstrap has previously allowed physicists to understand why general relativity and various particle theories—like the interactions of gluons inside of protons—are mathematically inevitable: they are the only consistent mathematical structures, under certain criteria.

However, the same question had not previously been answered for string theory: What criteria uniquely determine it by mathematically picking it out from the set of all possible theories? 

In the Physical Review Letters paper, the scientists discovered a way to bootstrap these string amplitudes—specifically, constructing them through the creation of mathematical formulas. By implementing special mathematical conditions on their formulas for scattering amplitudes—which describe how particles interact and ultimately form—the group found that the amplitudes of string theory emerged as the only consistent answer.

“This paper provides an answer to this string-theory question for the first time,” says Grant Remmen, a James Arthur Postdoctoral Fellow in NYU’s Center for Cosmology and Particle Physics and one of the authors of the paper. “Now that these mathematical conditions are known, it brings us a step closer to understanding if and why string theory must describe our universe.”

The paper’s authors, who also included Clifford Cheung, a professor of theoretical physics at Caltech, and Aaron Hillman, a Caltech postdoctoral researcher, add that this breakthrough may be useful in better understanding quantum gravity—it seeks to reconcile Einstein’s theory of relativity, which explains large-scale gravity, with quantum mechanics, which describes particle activity at the smallest scales.

“This approach opens a new area of study in analyzing the uniqueness of string amplitudes,” explains Remmen. “The development of tools outlined in our research can be used to investigate deformations of string theory, allowing us to map a space of possibilities for quantum gravity.”

Testosterone Therapy in a Transgender Male Patient as a cause of Acute Ischemic Stroke (P2-5.011)

Christina Tan, Lauren Kim Sing, Ron Danziger, Alex Aw, Chae Kim, Stephen Avila, Vilakshan Alambyan, Angud Mehdi, Michael Gezalian, Maranatha Ayodele, and Shahed ToossiAuthors Info & Affiliations

April 25, 2023 issue

Objective:

To share an intriguing case of a young transgender male patient receiving testosterone therapy who developed locked-in syndrome due to an acute ischemic stroke and to highlight potential risk factors for stroke in the LGBTQI+ community

Background:

There are many studies identifying risk factors for stroke in racially and ethnically diverse populations. However, there is little existing data for stroke risk factors in the LGBTQI+ community. Prior research has shown testosterone therapy in cis-gender men with initially low levels of testosterone increases the risk of stroke, especially in the first 2 years of use1. While testosterone therapy has been shown to increase the risk of venous thrombosis, its role in arterial thrombosis is unclear2. A proposed mechanism for thrombosis with testosterone replacement includes erythrocytosis, but the potential contribution of an independent pro-coagulant effect is yet to be determined3.

Design/Methods:

Literature review and case report.

Results:

An otherwise healthy 23-year-old transgender male on one year of testosterone therapy presented in an obtunded state. Examination revealed complete quadriplegia with sparing of vertical eye movements, consistent with locked-in syndrome. Imaging revealed complete occlusion of the basilar artery with distal reconstitution at the superior cerebellar arteries, and a large bilateral ischemic infarct of the pons. Computed tomography angiography did not demonstrate other large vessel disease or structural vascular abnormalities. Unfortunately, the patient was out of the time window for any acute stroke interventions. A hypercoagulable workup was performed but results were unrevealing and hematocrit was normal. Further investigation with transthoracic echocardiogram, transesophageal echocardiogram, and telemetry were negative for thrombus, patent foramen ovale, and atrial fibrillation.

Conclusions:

Acute ischemic stroke may be an under recognized complication of testosterone therapy in transgender males independent of degree of erythrocytosis. Further research is needed to establish a safety profile of testosterone therapy in this understudied population.

Movie Review | Cyclone (Ray, 1987)

Things I liked about this movie:

The motorcycle and car stunts, which are quite impressive for the budget.

Jeffrey Combs, even if he video calls the bulk of his performance from beyond the grave! Ooooohhhhh…. Okay, it’s not that spooky, he just left a bunch of video messages to be played by his girlfriend after his death. Even though he seems to pause for her reaction multiple times. Also, “I love it when you fuck up Einstein.”

Fred Olen Ray’s distinct brand of cinephilia, which leads him to cast such stars of the silver screen as Huntz Hall and Troy Donahue.

Heather Thomas and Ashley Ferrare duking it out in a surprisingly not terrible fight scene. And the earlier insult Thomas throws at Ferrare. “You’re as plastic as your tits!”

The rad motorcycle sweatshirt Thomas wears throughout the movie.

David Letterman’s method for differentiating Heather Thomas from Locklear.

The dangerous amount of hair product onscreen.

Things I didn’t like about this movie:

The knockoff Phil Collins on the soundtrack for the solid minute it attempts some real ‘80s neon mood. I’ve gotten multiple listens of “In The Air Tonight” recently thanks to Miami Vice and Risky Business, and a song trying to sound like it while skirting the boundaries of plagiarism sticks out like a sore thumb.

The closeup of Ashley Ferrare’s boobs that the movie opens with, which somehow seems pervier than having actual nudity. At least real nudity is honest about its intentions.

The clinical zoning out I experienced anytime this tried to push the plot along. This is the third Fred Olen Ray movie I’ve seen after Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers and Evil Toons. Those are naked exercises in exploitation, offering you a threadbare narrative upon which to hang a bunch of nude scenes and maybe some gags, and because of that, I enjoyed them enough. This one tries to be more of a real movie (a high tech vehicular conspiracy thriller, like Blue Thunder on the cheap), which Ray isn’t a good enough director to pull off.

Eventually All Stars and Planets Will Evaporate Via Hawking Radiation

Due to Hawking radiation, black holes will eventually evaporate, but the event horizon is not as crucial as had been believed. Gravity and the curvature of spacetime cause this radiation too. This means that all large objects in the universe, like the remnants of stars, will eventually evaporate.

Using a clever combination of quantum physics and Einstein’s theory of gravity, Stephen Hawking argued that the spontaneous creation and annihilation of pairs of particles must occur near the event horizon.

Researchers at Radboud University investigated whether or not the presence of an event horizon is indeed crucial. They combined techniques from physics, astronomy and mathematics to examine what happens if such pairs of particles are created in the surroundings of black holes. The study showed that new particles can also be created far beyond this horizon.

Physical Review Letters- Gravitational Pair Production and Black Hole Evaporation

They present a new avenue to black hole evaporation using a heat-kernel approach analogous as for the Schwinger effect. Applying this method to an uncharged massless scalar field in a Schwarzschild spacetime, they show that spacetime curvature takes a similar role as the electric field strength in the Schwinger effect. They interpret the results as local pair production in a gravitational field and derive a radial production profile. The resulting emission peaks near the unstable photon orbit. Comparing the particle number and energy flux to the Hawking case, they find both effects to be of similar order. However, the pair production mechanism itself does not explicitly make use of the presence of a black hole event horizon.

Best Greetings

The Refutation Of The Big Bang Theory

I try to show– the Big Bang idea is wrong – not only the big bang theory is wrong but even its whole description and concept is wrong – let's explain that in following

(A)

The big bang told the planet be created by random process and historical effects –this is NOT the fact – the planet be created based on geometrical rules and no random process affect on it – as the production of electron and position from Gamma ray- this process is done based on physical rules and not by any random process -  

My proof for this idea is (Planet Data Be Created Based On Exact Equations)

Means- planet diameter, mass, orbital distance, period, velocity, inclination, rotation period and axial tilt – all data be created based on exact equations and geometrical rules- MY FIVE EQUATIONS Conclude The Planets Data Theoretically –

This is similar to the industry of the planes and rockets

The manufacturer of a plane or rocket needs exact equations to define this plane length, width, weight and all other data – otherwise this plane or rocket can't fly safely – similar to that the planet data be created based on exact equations otherwise this planet can't move safely- by that – the planets data isn't defined by historical effects but defined by geometrical rules (only)

(B)

Here we have 2 different visions – because

The big bang theory told us – the solar system is created based on historical effects – means – NO DESIGN was found before the solar system creation – can this vision be seen?

The manufacturer of a plane or rocket needs to define the design and dimensions of this plane before its creation – the big bang told NO Design was found before- the creation process depends on (random process and historical effects)  

Look at any creature body – let's use a cat as example –

Can this cat be created without A Design Is Found Before The Creation –

Again – my powerful proof against this idea is (MY Five Equations)  

The planets data can be concluded theoretically by mathematical calculations only and without any observation – that can be done only if the data be created based on geometrical rules and one design-

Shortly

One Design And One Law Controls The Planets All Data.  

(C)

Now we have 2 points against the big bang – first (the planets data depend on exact equations) and – second (The Solar System Depends On One Design)

 The third point is the major one – it's a technical feature of the matter creation

The facts push us to conclude (Matter Creation Depends On Light Velocity)

I wish I make the idea as clear as possible

the facts tell the matter creation is related to light velocity- means – these 2 things are not independent from one another – the matter creation and light velocity are 2 dependent on one another – the facts prove this idea – for that – the whole historical description is just a false idea – no a piece of fact be found in it –

basically because – The Matter Creation Technically Depends On Light Velocity  

let's review these facts

(1)

light velocity 300000 km/s creates a limit - (No velocity is greater than 300000 km/s) (Einstein hypothesis) – why?

(2)

Matter energy is defined by light velocity (Einstein Equation E=mc^2)

(3)

Lorentz transformations be effective by light velocity

While a particles move by high velocity, its real dimensions be changed! Why?

(4)

(The observer effect on the observation results) this also be related to light velocity –

(5)

From Gamma ray can electron and positron be created – where – the creation system (male and female) gives a reference for similar creation method

(6)

The creature eyes can see the sun rays, it is unexplainable coincidence – why the sun rays can't be in some invisible light form? In this case the creature would see no light

(7)

More ideas

We may be at some preferred position, may be at the center of the universe

also – the speed of light may decide the parameters of expending universe.

 These facts show– the matter creation can't be independent from the light velocity effect – the facts show that a dilemma must be found behind the dependency between Matter creation and light velocity –

I want to say – we have no way to deny the dependency between Matter creation and light velocity because the facts prove it frequently and by different sides.

I provide a hypothesis tells

(The Creature Brain Causes Any Velocity 300000 Km/S To Be Seen As Matter)

This is my hypothesis – let's see its results

(1-1)

The light velocity 300000km/s be limit velocity based on (the creature brain capacity) and not by the universe creation – means- even if a higher velocity is found we can't discover it because the brain capacity limit at 300000 km/s (as the creature ears can listen a range of sounds only and for that it has a limit of sound)  

(2-1)

The hypothesis explains Einstein Equation (E= mc^2) – in fact all matters are made of light by effect of the creature brain –

(3-1)

Lorentz transformations be effective by light velocity

This is one more proof for my idea – the matter dimensions be defined originally by light velocity (in the creature brain) and when this matter moves by light velocity that changes its original dimensions

(4-1)

(The observer effect on the observation results) this also be related to light velocity –

This is one more proof for my idea – because– the wave was just a wave before the observer sees it – but – after its vision this wave be a particle –

(5-1)

From Gamma ray can electron and positron be created – where – the creation system (male and female) gives a reference for similar creation method

This is one more proof for my idea (Matter Is Created Of Light Beam Energy)

(6-1)

The creature eyes can see the sun rays- this is another proof for the idea  

(7-1)

More ideas

We may be at some preferred position, may be at the center of the universe

also the speed of light may decide the parameters of expending universe.

 It's interesting data because –if the matter be created by the creature brain effect on light motion that will make the solar system to be in The Center Of The Universe- that shows one more proof for the idea  

 (D)

One more refutation I suggest against the big bang theory and its historical effects-

The Solar System Creation And Motion Depends On A CONTINUUM OF DATA

Means –

The Geometrical Rules Be Persistent And Continuous Through The planets–

My proof is (My Five Equations Which Conclude The Planets Data Theoretically)

The rule passes through all planets showing (the planet data can't be independent)

Let's use one example – my fourth equation (Planet diameter equation)

(My fourth Equation) Planet diameter Equation ((v1/v2) =(s/r) = I)

v = Planet Velocity and r= Planet Diameter

s= Planet Rotation Periods Number In Its Orbital Period

I= Planet Orbital Inclination (a rate to inclination unit)

By this equation, planet diameter be defined based on its rotation period as be seen in the equation – the equation be tested and discussed in (page no. 476) of my paper

I put it here to explain the meaning of the continuum of data – where

The equation geometrical effect passes through (All Planets Data) and forces each planet diameter to be created as a function in its rotation period –

Notice

Newton equation of mass gravity is very similar to coulomb equation of charges attraction – this similarity by found because of rule caused the two equations – and this one rule be seen in mass and charges in different forms –

I wish I make my idea clear as possible – because

The facts contradict the big bang theory and its concept frequently and strongly – the wrong description of the historical creation and effects can be disproved and refuted simply by the analysis of the planets data which shows that the creation is a process has technical features disproves the historical effects – namely – the matter creation dependency on light velocity and the solar system continuum of data disproves clearly the big bang theory and the random concept of creation –

Shortly

The creation is done based on A Geometrical Design – namely

The designer had a design before the creation process and this design shows one law controls all data in the solar system – the facts contradict the big bang completely

 Thanks a lot Best regards and wishes

The Chapter of Preaching Tao, Article 6: The Unified Field of the Universe

Xuefeng

December 30, 2005

(Translation edited by Qinyou)

The term "universe" encompasses all infinite space (宇) and all infinite time (宙). Thus, the universe is a composite of material and nonmaterial components, constituted by infinite space and infinite time.

The "unified field of the universe" refers to the laws that universally apply to all times and spaces—essentially, "universal laws" that hold true everywhere.

Establishing a unified field of the universe has been the dream and pursuit of scientists. They envision using a simple, clear formula to describe this unified field theory—a formula that could be called the ultimate formula, applicable to all fields.

It is said that Einstein spent thirty years of his later life attempting to find this formula, but in the end, he was left lamenting and empty-handed. Modern scientists, whether globally renowned or obscure, have all employed various methods in their quest to solve the problem of the unified field of the universe, hoping to achieve the glory of solving this problem, akin in significance to the Goldbach conjecture.

The promising prospect is alluring, but it remains as elusive as a mirage—seemingly near, yet far. After reviewing the history and paths they have taken, I found that they have made a fundamental directional error.

First, let us consider the scientists' perspectives. Their views are uniformly focused on the material world, completely ignoring the nonmaterial world. It's like admiring a beautiful woman's smooth, tender skin and feeling the breath of love, while entirely overlooking the myriad charms and graces of her inner world. Thus, scientists are not masters of love in the unified field of the universe but are like jaded veterans lingering in the red-light district.

Scientists believe that there are four fundamental forces in the universe: magnetic force, gravitational force, strong nuclear force, and weak nuclear force. They think that if a formula or theory could seamlessly incorporate these four forces, a unified field of the universe could be established, allowing them to effortlessly enjoy the mysteries of the universe and marvel at its wonders.

They are deeply intoxicated by their own fantasies and find it difficult to extricate themselves. Not to mention establishing a unified field of the universe—they are currently unable to unify even these four forces with a single formula. Even if they were one day to unify them, it would be akin to Tang Monk encountering a false Thunder Sound Temple on his journey to the West, rather than the true Thunder Sound Temple where the Ancestral Buddha Tathagata resides.

How many fundamental forces are there in the universe?

Answer: There are eight—magnetic force, gravitational force, strong force, weak force, structural force, repulsive force, conscious force, and spiritual force.

Here is a brief description of these eight forces:

l Magnetic Force: The interaction between charged particles.

l Gravitational Force: The force of attraction between masses, caused by the curvature of spacetime due to mass and motion.

l Strong Force: The force that binds quarks together in protons and neutrons and binds protons and neutrons together in atomic nuclei.

l Weak Force: The force that acts on all matter particles but not on force-carrying particles.

l Structural Force: The force generated by the structure of material and nonmaterial components, with each structure having its unique energy absorption force.

l Repulsive Force: The force that causes like charges or poles to repel each other.

l Conscious Force: A force similar to the brain's ability to make the bladder and urethra start working when one wants to urinate.

l Spiritual Force: The force that causes mutual perception between things.

I have said that scientists cannot establish a unified field theory of the universe primarily because they cannot measure or calculate the latter four forces. Even though these four forces cannot be measured or calculated, we cannot deny or ignore their existence. Since they exist, and you cannot incorporate them into a single formula or theoretical system, you cannot establish a unified field of the universe. This is the fundamental reason why Einstein's efforts were in vain.

At this point, many "scientists" might mock Xuefeng. Go ahead and mock! Laugh to your heart's content! Let's see who will laugh last.

So, can the unified field of the universe not be established? No, it has already been established.

This is—the Tao of the Greatest Creator, also known as the holographic system, composed of the three elements of the universe: consciousness, structure, and energy.

The universe is holographic, and the Tao of the Greatest Creator encompasses the eight forces mentioned above, incorporating them wonderfully into a unified system.

Scientists have focused their attention only on the material world, ignoring the nonmaterial world. But the universe is composed of both material and nonmaterial components, existing in infinite time and infinite space. How can a unified field of the universe be established if the nonmaterial world is ignored?

This is Lifechanyuan's unified field theory of the universe.

The remaining task is to work on the "Tao."

Why is this called "The Chapter of Preaching Tao"? This should now be clear.

QLARANT: THE EINSTEIN WANNABEES THAT HAVE BEEN REWARDED BILLIONS OF DOLLARS CREATING JUNK SCIENCE: IT'S NOW TIME TO PUT THEM ON THE ELON-RAMASWAMY CHOPPING BUDGETARY BLOCK (PODCAST)

Qlarant's Methodology vs. Established Scientific Practices The sources you provided strongly criticize Qlarant's methodology, contrasting it with the rigor of established scientific practices. ● Instead of relying on peer review and validation, Qlarant is accused of using opaque and unreliable data models to identify "bad actor" physicians based on arbitrary factors. This methodology is compared to using "horoscopes and dice rolls" to build an atomic bomb, highlighting the perceived lack of scientific rigor. ● The sources specifically criticize Qlarant's "predictive analytics" system for assigning scores to physicians based on their perceived likelihood of committing fraud. These scores are: ○ Opaque: The calculation method is unclear, even to the accused doctors. ○ Biased: The system often targets minority physicians or those working in underserved communities. ○ Dangerously Inaccurate: The system fails to consider legitimate medical contexts, such as treating patients with complex conditions, and equates high prescription rates with wrongdoing. ● The sources argue that Qlarant's approach has not effectively addressed the opioid crisis, pointing to rising overdose deaths, veterans and chronic pain patients struggling to access care, and the increasing prevalence of illicit fentanyl. ● The sources draw a stark contrast between Qlarant's methodology and the scientific rigor of the Manhattan Project, which is held up as an example of harnessing science for progress. Overall, the sources portray Qlarant's methodology as lacking the transparency, validation, and accuracy expected of established scientific practices, ultimately resulting in negative consequences for healthcare professionals and the fight against the opioid crisis.

Origins of black holes are revealed in their spin, gravitational wave data analysis finds

The size and spin of black holes can reveal important information about how and where they formed, according to new research.

The study, led by scientists at Cardiff University, tests the idea that many of the black holes observed by astronomers have merged multiple times within densely populated environments containing millions of stars.

The work is published in the journal Physical Review Letters.

The team examined the public catalogue of 69 gravitational wave events involving binary black holes detected by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and Virgo Observatory for clues about these successive mergers, which they believe create black holes with distinctive spin patterns.

They discovered that a black hole's spin changes when it reaches a certain mass, suggesting it may have been produced through a series of multiple previous mergers. Their study shows how spin measurements can reveal the formation history of a black hole and offers a step forward in understanding the diverse origins of these astrophysical phenomena.

Lead author Dr. Fabio Antonini from Cardiff University's School of Physics and Astronomy said, "As we observe more black hole mergers with gravitational wave detectors like LIGO and Virgo, it becomes ever clearer that black holes exhibit diverse masses and spins, suggesting they may have formed in different ways. However, identifying which of these formation scenarios is most common has been challenging."

The team pinpointed a clear mass threshold in the gravitational waves data where black hole spins consistently change. They say this pattern aligns with existing models that assume black holes are produced through repeated collisions in clusters, rather than in other environments where spin distributions are different.

This result supports a robust and relatively model-independent signature for identifying these kinds of black holes, something that has been challenging to confirm until now, according to the team.

Dr. Isobel Romero-Shaw, a co-author and a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Cambridge, added, "Our study gives us a powerful, data-driven way to identify the origins of a black hole's formation history, showing that the way it spins is a strong indicator of it belonging to a group of high-mass black holes, which form in densely populated star clusters where small black holes repeatedly collide and merge with one another."

This study will now help astrophysicists further refine computer models which simulate the formation of black holes, helping to shape how future gravitational wave detections are interpreted.

Thomas Callister, one of the study's co-authors and a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Chicago, added, "Collaborating with other researchers and using advanced statistical methods will help to confirm and expand our findings, especially as we move toward next-generation detectors. The Einstein Telescope, for example, could detect even more massive black holes and provide unprecedented insights into their origins."

The lines are hard to distinguish because they lie on top of each other, showing the independence of these distributions on model assumptions and initial conditions.

Unlocking the Mysteries of Antimatter: Positronium Laser Cooling Breakthrough - Technology Org

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/unlocking-the-mysteries-of-antimatter-positronium-laser-cooling-breakthrough-technology-org/

Unlocking the Mysteries of Antimatter: Positronium Laser Cooling Breakthrough - Technology Org

The AEgIS experiment at CERN has made a groundbreaking advancement by successfully demonstrating laser cooling of positronium (Ps), an exotic atom composed equally of matter and antimatter.

This significant development, published in a paper in Physical Review Letters, marks a pivotal moment in the exploration of the fundamental symmetries of the universe and involved several members of Liverpool’s QUASAR Group.

Positronium, a unique atom made of an electron and its antimatter counterpart, the positron, stands out due to the absence of a hadronic nucleus, allowing for extremely precise numerical calculations of quantum states and transitions.

The transient nature of positronium, with its constituents usually annihilating each other in few hundred nanoseconds, along with their high velocities, has traditionally posed a formidable challenge to scientists attempting to study its properties experimentally.

The recent breakthrough by the AEgIS collaboration, where the UK’s contribution is supported by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), overcomes these challenges by employing broadband laser cooling.

This technique, which involves the transfer of momentum from specifically tailored laser light to the positronium atoms, allows for the cooling of the entire positronium ensemble in the direction of the laser. This approach differs from more selective narrow-band Doppler cooling methods and represents a significant innovation in the field.

Dr Benjamin Rienäcker, newly-elected AEgIS Physics Coordinator and a member of the Liverpool QUASAR Group based at CERN, said: “The implications of this achievement extend beyond the technical success of laser cooling positronium. It paves the way for more accurate measurements, crucial for advancing our understanding of antimatter and its role in the universe. I expect this breakthrough to enable new experiments, offering fresh insights into the cosmic matter-antimatter imbalance and the universe’s fundamental building blocks.”

The successful laser cooling of positronium significantly enhances the AEgIS experiment’s efforts towards antihydrogen formation. It opens up entirely new pathways for precision experiments in Quantum Electrodynamics and tests of the Equivalence Principle with positronium. Furthermore, it enables the formation of positronium beams and the exploration of Bose-Einstein condensates, expanding the scope for inertial tests and studies on macroscopic quantum objects.

Dr Ruggero Caravita, spokesperson for the AEgIS collaboration, has been awaiting this result for almost a full decade: “When I witnessed the first atomic excitation of positronium at AEgIS back in 2015, I knew we could be the ones to achieve this more than thirty years old dream of antimatter physicists. It has now become a reality, thanks to the efforts of everybody involved.”

Professor Carsten P Welsch, who leads the University of Liverpool contribution to the AEgIS experiment, added: “By exploring the properties and behaviour of exotic atoms like positronium, we are advancing our knowledge of fundamental physics at the same time as opening doors to technological innovations with potentially much wider applications. This fantastic result is testament to the excellent teamwork and collaboration within AEgIS.”

Liverpool physicists have made important contributions to the antimatter physics community for many years: The QUASAR Group has pioneered a large number of detector and sensor innovations for low energy antiproton beams, and Liverpool initiated and coordinated the multi-million Euro Accelerators Validating Antimatter physics (AVA) research network – the largest-ever research and training network on low energy antimatter physics.

The AEgIS breakthrough lays the foundation for an exciting physics programme ahead.

Integrating Creativity into Everyday Life: Practical Tips for Making Creativity a Daily Habit, Regardless of One's Profession

Creativity is contagious, pass it on.-Albert Einstein In today's fast-paced world, creativity is often relegated to the realm of artists, writers, and designers. However, the power of creative thinking extends far beyond the arts, offering valuable benefits in any profession. Integrating creativity into everyday life can enhance problem-solving skills, improve mental health, and lead to more fulfilling personal and professional lives. Here are practical tips for making creativity a daily habit, regardless of your profession. Start Small and Be Consistent The first step to integrating creativity into your daily routine is to start small. Dedicate a few minutes each day to a creative activity that you enjoy. This could be sketching, writing a journal, experimenting with a new recipe, or brainstorming ideas for a project. The key is consistency; even 10 minutes daily can spark creative thinking and gradually become a natural part of your routine. Create a Creative Space Designate a space in your home or office specifically for creative activities. This doesn't have to be a large area; even a small corner can be transformed into a creative oasis. Fill your space with inspiring objects, art supplies, or anything stimulating your creativity. A dedicated space makes it easier to get into the creative mindset and signals to your brain that it's time to think differently. Embrace Curiosity Curiosity is at the heart of creativity. Foster a curious mindset by asking questions, exploring new topics, and challenging assumptions. Try to learn something new every day, whether it's a word, a fact, or a skill. This habit of seeking new experiences and information can open up new pathways for creative thinking. Connect with Creative Communities Surrounding yourself with creative individuals can be incredibly inspiring. Join online forums, local clubs, or groups related to your interests. Participating in workshops, attending talks, or even having conversations with creative minds can provide fresh perspectives and stimulate your creativity. Practice Mindfulness and Reflection Mindfulness practices such as meditation, deep breathing, or yoga can clear your mind and enhance your ability to think creatively. Reflecting on your experiences, feelings, and thoughts can provide insights and ideas. Schedule regular intervals for reflection and mindfulness to cultivate a more receptive and creative mindset. Experiment and Take Risks Creativity often involves stepping out of your comfort zone and trying new things. Don't be afraid to experiment with different ideas, techniques, or approaches. Embrace failure as part of the creative process; each mistake is an opportunity to learn and grow. The willingness to take risks can lead to breakthroughs and innovative solutions. Integrate Creativity into Problem-Solving Regardless of your profession, approach challenges with a creative mindset. Instead of relying on conventional methods, try brainstorming a variety of solutions. Look at problems from different angles and consider unconventional approaches. This practice can enhance your thinking ability in professional settings and lead to more innovative outcomes. Keep a Creativity Journal A creativity journal can be valuable for recording ideas, sketches, and observations. Regularly jotting down thoughts can help you notice patterns, generate new ideas, and reflect on your creative journey. Reviewing your journal can inspire and motivate you to continue exploring your creativity. Conclusion Making creativity a daily habit is possible and beneficial for individuals in any profession. Anyone can integrate creativity into their daily life by starting small, creating a supportive environment, embracing curiosity, and practicing mindfulness. These practical tips can help unlock the creative potential within, leading to a more innovative, fulfilling, and joyful life. Remember, creativity is not a talent reserved for the few but a skill that can be cultivated by anyone willing to invest the time and effort. Read the full article

'Christopher Nolan’s epic blockbuster movie Oppenheimer charts the career of Robert Oppenheimer, a Jewish American, theoretical physicist from university to his involvement in the Manhattan Project and the building of his Los Alamos laboratory during World War Two. It then shows how McCarthyism in the 1950s witch-hunted him and destroyed his life.

Set against the backdrop of the rise of the Nazis, total war and then the Cold War, Cillian Murphy plays the eponymous character, Robert Oppenheimer, a conflicted and somewhat troubled man with socialist sympathies, including association with the American Communist Party and supporting the Spanish Civil War effort, sending aid to refugees of fascism.

Oppenheimer’s brilliance in the field of quantum physics is quickly recognised despite his frustrations within a laboratory setting, but his involvement in attempting to unionise professors in the radiation lab sees him being excluded initially from talks around developing nuclear weapons.

The film deals with a number of themes, one being the rise of communism and possible revolution across the world, and the capitalist classes’ brutal methods of quashing any such movements. The atomic bomb that Oppenheimer was instrumental in creating may have originally been intended for use in Germany, but the defeat of Hitler meant it was used instead on the Japanese. This was done, not to end the conflict, as the Japanese war effort was collapsing, but as a warning to the Soviet Union and the Stalinist bureaucracy to limit their plans of geopolitical dominance.

Another theme which Nolan tackles quite skilfully is the question of morals. Since the first splitting of the atom, the dropping of thousands of pounds of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan, and until this very day people have opposed nuclear weapons, including most of the scientists who worked on developing them at Alamos, who signed a petition against them.

The scientists, including Oppenheimer, faced the dilemma of their desire to advance their research and test their theories on the one hand, and the utter destruction that is caused by the results on the other. This is played out beautifully in the film in the interactions between Oppenheimer and Albert Einstein and the rivalry between Oppenheimer and fellow physicist Edward Teller.

Moral dilemma

The weaving of this moral dilemma throughout is given a sombre perspective with the use of effects as a vehicle to show Oppenheimer’s inner doubts and fears. When he addresses the community at Los Alamos after the first bomb has been dropped, he makes crude jokes about having won, and how the Japanese won’t have liked it. However, he can’t stop imagining the full horror of its consequences which are shown cleverly by the people in the crowd being stripped of their skin and vomiting due to radiation poisoning.

It is raised again through the hearing Oppenheimer is subsequently subjected to when he voices his objection to atomic bombs becoming part of US policy and against the hydrogen bomb suggested by Teller.

The film’s drama switches often to the issues surrounding his security clearance hearing in 1954. There, his opponents use his links to the US Communist Party – including his wife Kitty who was an ex-party member and whose union organiser ex-husband was killed fighting fascism in Spain, and the affair he had with Jean Tatlock, a full party member – as evidence of his threat to national security. His security clearance is rescinded meaning he could no longer influence policy during the Cold War and arms race that subsequently developed between the US and Soviet Union. They claimed the Soviets got the atomic bomb technology from a spy at Los Alamos.

The ensemble cast of Matt Damon as the colonel in charge of Los Alamos, Robert Downey Junior as Lewis Strauss the man behind the downfall of Oppenheimer, and Emily Blunt as his wife, Kitty, lends itself to the magnificence of the film alongside the beautiful and haunting score by Ludwig Göransson.

The film closes poignantly with Oppenheimer recalling his discussion with Einstein over whether there was a possibility of a never-ending chain reaction being sparked which could ignite the atmosphere and destroy the world, juxtaposed with the reality of a metaphorical chain reaction of continued war and human destruction.

Oppenheimer is a useful indictment of how capitalism and imperialism uses advances in technology for their own gains and why we should organise to stop them.'
