Edging closer to nukes
US military fears Putin is planning to use a nuclear bomb in Kyiv and reveals he is working on new nuclear weapons that can BEAT Western defenses so he can 'inflict unacceptable damage on the West' DIA Director Lt. Gen. Scott Berrier revealed the concerns in a report Thursday The report on global threats noted that Putin would be likely to threaten use of nuclear weapons if Ukrainian defense forces continue to push back It's also believed that Putin intends to 'overturn the U.S.-led rules based post-Cold War international order' and reclaim former Soviet territories.The report also notes that Russia claims to be developing missiles that are capable of circumventing Western defenses It has already deployed non-nuclear weapons that come equipped with decoy projectiles, in a possible sign of what's to com

The LANL news highlights are showing and more pit productions stories. Now how do you make a pit production highlight interlining is beyond me but it shows you where things are going.

In light of a possible world war in which the US needs to have the best science to insure our stockpile it is in good shape
it is very reassuring to know what kind of top research in being published by the American Physical Society.

Observing whiteness in introductory physics: A case study
Amy D. Robertson and W. Tali Hairston
Phys. Rev. Phys. Educ. Res. 18, 010119 – Published 11 March 2022
Within whiteness, the organization of social life is in terms of a center and margins that are based on dominance, control, and a transcendent figure that is consistently and structurally ascribed value over and above other figures. In this paper, we synthesize literature from Critical Whiteness Studies and Critical Race Theory to articulate analytic markers for whiteness, and use the markers to identify and analyze whiteness as it shows up in an introductory physics classroom interaction. We name mechanisms that facilitate the reproduction of whiteness in this local context, including a particular representation of energy, physics values, whiteboards, gendered social norms, and the structure of schooling. In naming whiteness and offering a set of analytic markers, our aim is to provide instructors and researchers with a tool for identifying whiteness in their own contexts. Alongside our discussion, which imagines new possibilities for physics teaching and learning, we hope our work contributes to Critical Whiteness Studies’ goal of dismantling whiteness.

I read this "paper". Some say it is one those hoax articles but it is too crazy to be hoax article. It is the most bizarre paper I have ever seen. Even stuff like the Sokol hoax articles cannot compare to this. How did the editors let this slip through? It is open access so I suggest you look at the paper yourself. By the way as a nice touch it is very anti capitalism.
I will leave you with caption for Fig.5 which has to be weirdest figure caption of all time.
FIG. 5. Paris and Gail increasingly turn their attention to the whiteboard as they sense make. Arrows indicate participants’ gaze. Image description: A series of images that analyze Drake’s, Paris’, and Gail’s gaze. In the first image, Drake is facing Paris and Gail and they are looking toward him and the board. In the second image, Drake looks at the board and Paris and Gail look at one another. In the next four images, Paris and Gail alternate between looking at one another and looking at the board, and Drake looks exclusively at the board. In the final three images, Paris and Gail’s attention is more stably on the board.
Fig1 has pretty good caption as well.
FIG. 1.
Image description: A flowchart illustrating how multiple forms of oppression are related, and how these lead to multiple forms of harm. At the top is colonialism, which leads to capitalism and supremacism, which are themselves connected. These flow into white supremacy, patriarchy, and human supremacy, which fuel things like slavery, ecocide, and genocide, which all connect to trauma and then inflammation. Multiple forms of harm are connected back up to capitalism.
