FBI Arrests Two More Suspects Near Utah Site of Charlie Kirk Assassination for Placing Bomb Under News Vehicle– conservativeroof.com Source Link Excerpt:
The FBI arrested two men over the weekend after they allegedly placed an incendiary device under a local FOX affiliate’s vehicle in Utah.
The device was discovered beneath a FOX 13 Salt Lake City news vehicle in the suburb of Magna on Friday, and investigators determined that it failed to detonate after being lit. The suspects are Adeeb Nasir, 58, and Adil Justice Ahmed Nasir, 31. The men were booked into Salt Lake County Jail on Sunday and are being held without bail.
They were charged with threat of terrorism, possessing weapons of mass destruction, aggravated arson, and possessing explosive devices. Adeeb Nasir was born in Pakistan and is an American citizen, according to his booking information. The name “Eddie Nash” is listed as an alias.
“Due to the nature of the device and its placement, this incident constituted a significant threat to public safety,” Unified Fire Authority Investigations officer Jeffrey David Nelson said in an affidavit, according to CBS News.
Life on Mars: NASA rover discovers strongest sign of life on Mars to date; all you need to know |– timesofindia.indiatimes.com Source Link Excerpt:
NASA’s Perseverance rover has uncovered what scientists describe as the most compelling evidence yet of possible life on Mars. A mudstone core drilled in July 2024 from a rock named “Chevaya Falls” within the Bright Angel region of Jezero Crater has revealed minerals and textures commonly linked with microbial activity on Earth. The sample contains vivianite, an iron phosphate, and greigite, an iron sulfide, both often formed in water-rich, oxygen-poor environments. These patterns, including “leopard spot” textures, suggest ancient chemical reactions that may have supported microbial life. While NASA stresses this is not proof of life, the findings represent the closest scientists have come to identifying a potential biosignature on the Red Planet.
The drilled core revealed fine-grained mudstone with circular reaction fronts called “leopard spots” and nodules embedded within layered sediments. Instruments aboard Perseverance, SHERLOC and PIXL, mapped organic carbon alongside phosphate, iron, and sulfur arranged in repeating patterns. The minerals vivianite and greigite stood out because, on Earth, they form in microbial-influenced environments. This bullseye-like arrangement mirrors electron transfer reactions that microbes perform in oxygen-poor muds. Importantly, these features developed in water-laid sediments rather than volcanic rock, strengthening the case for ancient habitability.
Researchers embed digital ‘fingerprints’ into 3D printed parts — tech may make future ghost guns more traceable – Tom’s Hardware Source Link Excerpt:
Netanel Raviv and a team at the McKelvey School of Engineering (part of Washington University in St. Louis) are continuing to develop a way to embed traceable digital ‘fingerprints’ into 3D-printed objects.
Initially reported by 3D Printing Industry, the markers are designed in a way to be detectable, even if the printed object has been broken, because they can be identified with just a fragment of the object. Depending on the fingerprint, information such as what printer was used and when the object was created can be embedded in the print.
One of the biggest practical use cases for this development is, of course, forensics. Traceable fingerprints are crucial for helping law enforcement track ghost gun manufacturing operations. We reported on a similar approach just a few months ago in which police were able to identify markers left behind when printing.
The process, created by the team at Washington University, is known as Secure Information Embedding and Extraction (or SIDE for short). The fingerprinting process adds a permanent marker to the object, which can be deciphered later to determine any data factors that were put in during the printing process, such as the owner of the printer that was used.
Scientists test an anti-aging cream that actually works– www.sciencedaily.com Source Link Excerpt:
Against the backdrop of high market demand for effective anti-ageing cosmetics, a team of Chinese researchers assessed the clinical effectiveness of a 0.1 % pterostilbene-containing skincare emulsion against a control emulsion over 28 days with 31 participants.
The study employed a double-blind, split-face design, comparing the left and right sides of the face and using advanced instruments along with subject self-assessments. The set of instruments used, together with the findings, is reported in the team’s published article in the Journal of Dermatologic Science and Cosmetic Technology.
“Our results indicated that the pterostilbene emulsion remarkably improved skin elasticity, firmness, and reduced wrinkles, such as forehead, undereye, and Crow’s feet wrinkles, shares co-author Zhiyuan Chen, Founder of Guangzhou Luanying Cosmetics Co., Ltd. “It also increased the thickness of the epidermis layer, enhanced collagen and elastic fibers, and minimized skin pores.”
Compared to the control emulsion, the pterostilbene emulsion brought about statistically significant improvements, and all subjects expressed higher satisfaction with the pterostilbene emulsion. These results collectively demonstrated the superior anti-aging efficacy of the pterostilbene emulsion through multiple mechanisms.
Johnson Has No Plans To Punish Omar For Justifying Kirk’s Murder– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
House Speaker Mike Johnson won’t commit to taking any disciplinary action against Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar for her comments blaming Charlie Kirk for his own assassination, despite his power to strip her of committee assignments or put forward a resolution calling for her expulsion from Congress.
In a Sunday appearance on Face the Nation, Johnson decried the danger of name-calling. “I mean calling people Nazis and fascists is not helpful,” Johnson said. “Look, there are some deranged people in society, and when they see leaders using that kind of language so often now, increasingly, it spurs them onto action. We have to recognize that reality and address it appropriately.”
Americans should be able to debate policy without conservatives being murdered in front of their families by left-wing trans terrorists.
But Johnson didn’t offer details Sunday about what an appropriate response looks like, even though he has a responsibility to respond to the ugly statements Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., made during an interview on the Mehdi Hasan podcast while discussing the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
“There are a lot of people who are out there talking about [Kirk] just wanting to have a civil debate,” Omar said.
“It’s bullsh-t! A complete rewriting of history,” Hasan interjected.
