Jeremy Corbyn says the UK government is endangering pro-Palestine hunger strikers
Former UK Labour leader Cornyn has issued a statement in solidarity with Amu Gib, who is accused of participating in the Palestine Action break-in of RAF Brize Norton airbase this summer.
The action,
carried out in protest of Israel’s genocide in Gaza and the UK government’s participation in it,
led to the proscription of the group under “anti-terrorism” laws.
Dozens of protesters h…

Palestine Action activists on trial in UK over Israeli arms maker protest
The judge urged the jury to do away with personal feelings about the war on Gaza or the legality of the proscription.

one time when i was like 11 and we were living in a hotel in poland for a month it was my lil brothers birthday and i dont remember this perfect but for some reason i stayed behind while my family was out and i screamed and cried for hours feeling like every inch of me was being torn apart and later when i joined them for something else i was still like that prolly acted like that in public but then i got a lollipop with a smiley face on it and looking at it thru my tears made me smile so th…

No Sign of a Magnetar Remnant Following the Kilonova-Producing Long GRB 211211A $\sim 1.7~$Years Later
In addition to a $γ$-ray burst (GRB), the merger of two neutron stars may produce a temporarily or indefinitely stable neutron star remnant with a strong magnetic field (a "magnetar"). As this magnetar remnant spins down, it can deposit its rotational energy into the surrounding kilonova ejecta, producing synchrotron emission that peaks in the radio bands $\sim$months-years after the merger ("boosted kilonova"). The nearby ($z=0.0763$) long-duration GRB 211211A, which has an apparent kilonova …

Superconductivity in the repulsive Hubbard model on different geometries induced by density-assisted hopping
We study the effect of density-assisted hopping on different dimerized lattice geometries, such as bilayers and ladder structures. We show analytically that the density-assisted hopping induces an attractive interaction in the lower (bonding) band of the dimer structure and a repulsion in the upper (anti-bonding) band. Overcoming the onsite repulsion, this can lead to the appearance of superconductivity. The superconductivity depends strongly on the filling, and present a pairing structure more…

60 years ago today (maybe), the muir beach acid test, during which the grateful dead & owsley stanley encounter one another for the very first time & owsley promptly freaks out & drives his car into a ditch. muir beach photo from later in the '60s. (sometimes the palo alto acid test is placed on 12/11 & muir beach on 12/18, but rosie mcgee says she met phil lesh for the 1st time on 12/11 & attended palo alto the following week, which seems to settle the matter.)

Trump asks Supreme Court to throw out Carroll verdict
President Donald Trump has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to throw out a jury’s finding in a civil lawsuit that he sexually abused writer E. Jean Carroll at a Manhattan department store in the mid-1990s and later defamed her. Trump’s lawyers argued in a lengthy filing with the high court Monday that allegations leading to the $5 million verdict were “propped up” by a “series of indefensible evidentiary rulings” that allowed Carroll’s lawyers to present “highly inflammatory propens…

The Senate on Thursday night approved its $925 billion version of the
National Defense Authorization Act,
the annual must-pass Pentagon policy blueprint,
setting up what is expected to be a lengthy negotiation with the House to finalize the bill.

The legislation, deadlocked for weeks over various partisan disagreements,
advanced by a margin of 77 to 20 following amendment votes earlier in the evening.

Senate and House staff will next reconcile their bills…
