May Great Spirit bless 🙏

Morning, everyone. I pray you are all safe and well on this Tuesday morning. It is supposed to be milder by morning, with a forecast of 39°F, but I just don't like the occasional snow forecast; I need to go see my denturist at his office out of town. Well, I need to go, but I'm certainly not impressed with the word "snow." The appointment is for 1:30 pm, and that's about a half-hour drive, with snow, probably more like an hour, so I am attempting to get most of my news report done this evening and finish publishing it in the morning.

You all know that there are some days I like to take a rest from the Trumpo the Clown garbage. I truly pray I never hear that name again once he's gone. I don't much care if he is walked out by force, arrested in handcuffs, or taken out feet first from a cardiac arrest, or an alien abduction. If it's an abduction, I hope the alien brought a lot of friends and takes Trumpo's cohorts too. Just one little kick in the shinbone, Orange Pus Bag! Once you get disappeared, I will play this song in commemoration of the peace that has come over the land. Then I'll go out to my Green Space and dance a little jig.

TODAY'S DISCUSSION SCIENCE:

THE BLACK HOLE PHENOMENA

Here is my breakdown on black holes.

My thoughts. I am aware that nebulae are clouds of dust, gas, and other matter that formed from clumps of ejecta from the Big Bang, possibly creating time and space as they went.

My question:* How are black holes and galaxies formed?

How does this work? As I see it, nebulae are giant clouds of dust, gas, and other matter, some spanning parsecs across in our own Milky Way Galaxy.

How is a black hole born? What's the chance that all that dust, matter, and gas from a nearby nebula cloud would suddenly come close enough to begin to swirl around a black hole, or vice versa? What's the chance the cloud will be in the right place for a supermassive black hole to begin its feast on the nebula cloud? Or is the black hole born in the cloud?

Answer below: (Where do supermassive black holes come from?)

My question:

How does a black hole exist in the vacuum of space with nothing to feed it? Where do they come from?

Can a black hole continue to exist in the vacuum of space where there is no material to feed it? Wouldn't they starve for lack of material to feed them? Fact: Black holes are powered by extreme gravitational activity, with a force strong enough to keep the event horizon open and stable around the black hole. With such a force, anything falling in never returns, not even light can return.

- Google Search -

🔹AI Overview

A black hole continues to exist in the vacuum of space without "feeding" because it is not a traditional, living entity that requires constant energy to stay "alive". Instead, it is a region of spacetime where mass is so densely packed that gravity overcomes all other forces. Once formed, a black hole is a stable structure that simply persists, maintaining its event horizon—the boundary of no return—even in the absence of surrounding gas, dust, or stars.

- Google Search -

🔹AI Overview

My question: Is a black hole a true perpetual motion machine?

No, a black hole is not a true perpetual motion machine. While black holes can exist for trillions of years and appear to operate in a cycle of consuming matter, they violate the thermodynamic requirements for perpetual motion because they slowly lose energy through Hawking radiation and will eventually evaporate.

Where do supermassive black holes come from? Are they also born in the same nebula cloud as the stars, whereupon a black hole can gravitationally draw in the nebula material around it to form a galaxy?

- Google Search -

🔹AI Overview

My question: Where do black holes come from?

Black holes are primarily formed by the gravitational collapse of massive stars at the end of their lives, which can result in a supernova explosion. When a star much larger than the Sun runs out of fuel, its core collapses, compressing mass into an extremely compact space.

- Google Search -

🔹AI Overview

My question: Where are the massive stars that form a black hole born?

Massive stars destined to become black holes are born within dense, cold molecular clouds and stellar nurseries located in the spiral arms of galaxies, or in the high-density environment of the early universe. These stars typically require at least 20–25 times the mass of the Sun to trigger a supernova that collapses into a black hole.

So even black holes have their humble beginnings in a nebula nursery and one hell of a metamorphosis. Some remnants can still be seen today, like the "Butterfly Galaxy." Just insert "Butterfly Galaxy" in Google Search for an image.

My question: Quantum mechanics postulates that information is never lost, regardless of changes to its form. What happens to information that enters a black hole?

I have entertained the idea that information trapped in a black hole would be like storing information in a master supercomputer memory bank. Well, how do you like that? I wasn't very far from being spot on with that one.

The answer to my question: Based on recent developments in quantum gravity, what happens to information that falls into a black hole?

- Google Search -

🔹AI Overview

Recent developments in quantum gravity, particularly since 2019, strongly support the idea that information falling into a black hole is not destroyed, aligning with the concept that black holes act as a memory bank or a holographic data storage device.

This means that while information seems to vanish, it is actually encoded in the outgoing Hawking Radiation or imprinted on the event horizon, allowing it to be preserved and potentially recovered.

Canada discreetly puts money down on 14 additional F-35s

Despite an ongoing review, Ottawa made payments related to the acquisition of more U.S.-built fighter jets

Ottawa has begun making payments for key components for 14 additional U.S.-built F-35s, even as the Carney government is reviewing future fighter-jet purchases amid trade tensions with Washington, sources have told CBC News.

The funding for these 14 aircraft is in addition to the contract for the first order of 16 F-35s, which will begin delivery to the Canadian Armed Forces at the end of the year. According to sources, the new expenses are related to the purchase of so-called “long-lead items,” which are parts that must be ordered well in advance of the delivery of a fully assembled aircraft...

My question: Evolution of Consciousness

The evolution of consciousness is theorized to have emerged as a survival advantage, moving organisms beyond simple reflexes to enable flexible, planned, and internally guided behavior, likely linked to nervous system complexity, especially the neocortex in mammals. Theories suggest it allows for better sensory integration, global information processing, self-awareness, and goal-directed actions, potentially starting in early bilaterians and advancing with brain structures, though some view it as a quantum phenomenon or an evolutionary byproduct.

Ontario policing inspector announces provincewide look at how police, boards can protect against corruption

Ontario's inspector general of policing will conduct a provincewide independent review of police in the wake of a corruption scandal involving more than half a dozen Toronto police officers. Ryan Teschner said incidents of corruption “understandably shake public trust” and a thorough independent investigation is needed to answer the public’s questions.

“People most often encounter police at moments of crisis, when they are frightened, injured, grieving or in immediate danger,” he said. “In those moments, public trust is not abstract. It determines whether people will seek help, whether they will cooperate, tell the truth and accept protection." ...

Good morning, welcome to another grey, cold mini iceage morning. The way I see it, predicting it from just going on feelings, like back in mom and dad's day, some people could feel a change in the weather coming the next day. I don't feel it, but I predict it from arthritis in my knee or hands. Mine is more like an inside job. I feel something like a switch flipping inside, but I just don't know exactly when or where, just that this weather pattern will come to an ABRUPT end within the next couple of days.

Which I will settle for and be happy. February is usually chilly; our normal maximum low is around +15 F, and a high of up to +35 to 40 F, but this year we were 15 F below our usual low of 15 F and an additional 15 F colder, for a total of 0 F. It is chilly, but there is usually plenty of bright sun here on the Niagara Peninsula in February. Another old saying is: "Winter comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb, or vice versa." I believe that saying holds more water than just by chance. So get the rain barrel out, Martha, it's a goin' ta rain!

PRAYER TIME:🙏

Let us all pray 🙏 that when the rains come, it's not too much too quick. We got lots of snow this year, which hopefully will replenish the reservoirs both west of the California mountains and on the East Coast. I especially pray that this will give Lake Mead and the Mississippi River a good kick in the pants as far as water level goes, at least for the springtime. I pray for more consistent rain in those areas during the summer, and please keep Canada free of major forest fires. Thank you, Great Spirit, for hearing this prayer, AMEN!

Epstein tried to cozy up to Russian officials, including Putin, documents show

Jeffrey Epstein had a message he wanted to get to Russian President Vladimir Putin. It was June 2018 – about a year after Russia's ambassador to the United Nations, Vitaly Churkin, had suddenly died. Churkin had been someone Epstein met with regularly in New York, according to new documents released by the Department of Justice, and Epstein had even offered to help Churkin's son, Maxim, get a job at a wealth management firm there.

Now, Epstein was looking to talk with a different Russian official: Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. On June 24, 2018, Epstein emailed Norwegian politician Thorbjørn Jagland, then the secretary general of the Council of Europe, "I think you might suggest to Putin, that Lavrov, can get insight on talking to me. Vitaly Churkin used (to) but he died. ?!"...

Tusk said:

"I don't need to tell you how serious the increasingly likely possibility that Russian intelligence services co-organized this operation is for the security of the Polish state," Tusk added. "This can only mean that they also possess compromising materials against many leaders still active today."

On May 9, 2013, according to the documents, Epstein wrote to former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak that Jagland "is going to see Putin in Sochi" on May 20 and that Jagland asked if Epstein would make himself available to meet with the Russian president "to explain how Russia can structure deals in order to encourage Western investment." ...

Gambling With The Devil

Question: What does gambling with the devil mean?

ANSWER:

"Gambling with the devil" is an idiom describing a situation where an individual takes a reckless, dangerous risk—often involving their morals, reputation, or long-term well-being—in exchange for immediate, fleeting rewards, such as wealth, power, or pleasure. It signifies a losing scenario where the "house" (the devil/sin) always wins, resulting in ultimate destruction, ruin, or the loss of one's soul. _*<- Big Period,_ that's it. I heard that expression way back since my grandad was still alive, and my dad, Dad, was a successful gambler, a sideline hobby, and he used that statement a lot.*_

Devil notwithstanding, it's all chance, and you set yourself up. The puddin' head part is: if you're not a good actor or a bluffer, and if you don't have a lot of self-confidence, and cannot be straight-faced, FORGET IT. You'll just end up with a broken leg and a busted head in the city dump.

Cooperation with ICE is the latest red vs. blue state divide

Cooperation with federal immigration enforcement is emerging as a major dividing line between red and blue states — and a source of intensifying conflict between President Donald Trump’s administration and local Democratic officials.

Even as Republicans and Democrats in Congress clash over setting new limits on the tactics used by federal immigration agents, red and blue states are pulling apart on whether to enlist in Trump’s agenda of mass deportation. Red states are now passing laws requiring all local law enforcement agencies to sign formal partnership agreements with US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, even as more blue states are moving to prohibit local law enforcement from entering such agreements.

As on many fronts, Trump and congressional Republicans are trying to pressure blue states into adopting the red-state policies. Trump has repeatedly sought to block federal funding for states and cities that do not provide unfettered cooperation with his deportation agenda —  only to have his attempts repeatedly stopped by courts...

Racist video is merely the latest in a long line of Trump's ugly social media posts

The White House has belatedly backed down from a racist video shared on President Donald Trump’s social media feed after blowback from Republicans.

The video promoting false claims of voter fraud concluded with a brief clip of images of former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama’s heads affixed to the bodies of apes. After initially trying to defend the post and leaving it up for hours — even labeling the outrage “fake” — the White House eventually gave in to bipartisan backlash, removed it, and changed its tack.

Its new explanation: The video was “erroneously” posted by a staffer. Trump later Friday expanded on that, saying he had reviewed the first section of the video and passed it along to a staffer, who then failed to review the whole thing and catch the offensive content at the end...

• New message: Officials are probing the authenticity of a new message sent to KOLD yesterday about Guthrie. The note included sensitive information and no deadline, according to an anchor at the outlet.

• Clues emerging: Authorities say they believe she was abducted from her home near Tucson last weekend. Blood found on her porch belonged to her and a front door camera is missing, authorities said. A camera also detected motion around 2 a.m. Sunday, around the time her pacemaker last pinged her phone...

‘I am so afraid of these policemen’: How an Alabama police force spiraled out of control

HANCEVILLE, Alabama

—

There’s a fog rolling through Hanceville.

It seeps out at night from the fields and the creeks, dancing in headlights after dark. It floats over the banks of the Black Warrior River, which snakes through the state but withers and dies north of town. It drifts towards the hills of the Tennessee Valley, which unfurls across the South but stops just shy of this neck of the woods. It settles in at this time of year, thick enough to hide one neighbor from the next.

But Evelyn remembers brighter days. She used to carry lemonade to Hanceville’s police officers when the Alabama sun hung white-hot overhead, Evelyn tells CNN. She’d take cookies each Thanksgiving – peanut butter and fudge, she says, a recipe perfected through the years. She’s the proud daughter of a cop: she says her father policed Birmingham during the civil rights protests of the 1960s...

And that’s how Evelyn thought her story would end: a terrifying personal ordeal, filed away among all the private injustices, big and small, that populate every street in every town in the country.

Hanceville, home to around 3,000 people, is now the unlikely site of a bold experiment in American policing.

CANADIAN NEWS:

Will Canada's new auto strategy put as many EVs on the road as Carney says?

Climate experts say emission rules still need to be worked out — and automakers hold much power

Despite widespread approval from provinces and auto manufacturers, Prime Minister Mark Carney's auto plan might not accelerate the transition to electric vehicles as fast as he says.

On Thursday, Carney ended Canada's electric vehicle mandate, resumed purchase incentives and said higher standards for fuel efficiency were coming. Ontario and Alberta's premiers said they were both "pleased" and car manufacturers said the move provided "welcome policy stability." Carney says his government expects EVs to hit 75 per cent of new car purchases in 2035 without a sales mandate. Some climate change experts not only doubt this — but say the new strategy undermines Canada's climate goals.

Warming temperatures are shrinking snowpack in key Canadian watersheds, a study suggests

This year’s record-low snowpack in the West is a preview of things to come

A record-breaking snow drought in the western U.S. is raising concerns about water scarcity and wildfires next summer. A new Canadian study suggests the conditions could signal a longer-term trend that threatens water supplies for millions across the country.

Snow cover in the western U.S. is well below what it normally is at this time of year, and the lowest ever recorded since NASA’s Terra satellite began monitoring in 2001. A warming climate is likely making this more common. The snow deposited in winter on parts of western Canada, and the water contained in that snow, declined from 2000 to 2019, according to the study from researchers at Concordia University in Montreal...
