Agentic AI Revolution at Google

In silicon minds the future finds its spark, Where agents weave through code both day and night, Gemini’s glow ignites the eager dark, And turns our daily tasks to swift delight. From studio to workspace, visions gleam, Android dreams in minutes born anew, While science bows before this glowing stream Of hypotheses that cut the night in two. Yet limits tighten, credits ebb and flow, As users weigh what freedom still remains; This era’s dawn both promise and peril show, Where tools empower or bind with subtle chains. O agentic age, thy gifts we now embrace— May wisdom guide what algorithms chase.*

Pathways to Healthy Longevity

In garden plots where patient hands attend The living soil, a slower clock is found; While rhythms steady mark the body’s end Of youthful haste and grant the elder ground. From Lothian’s long-lived cohort we learn That trowel work preserves both mind and gait; Consistent days the epigenetic turn Can blunt, as rest and motion calibrate. O aging souls who seek the fountain’s art, Let ordered hours and earth-bound labor blend; For nature’s quiet gifts outlast the mart, And grant the twilight years a sweeter end.*

Seismic Shifts in American Politics

The polls now whisper what the ballots shout: A president’s grip tightens every race; Massie falls while Paxton rises stout, And Mangionistas shock the public space. From Trump’s endorsement to the courthouse floor, Where “blood money” cheers replace decorum’s grace, The nation watches as its factions war And foreign shadows cloud the common place. Yet in these tremors lies a clearer view Of power’s price and loyalty’s demand; The old consensus cracks, the center’s through— A colder, sharper future claims the land.*

Rethinking Climate Narratives

The apocalyptic chorus now grows faint, As models once proclaimed as iron law Are quietly retired without restraint, And affordability reclaims the public’s awe. From Steyer’s pivot to the Antarctic find, The frozen continent reveals new stakes; While Britain toys with caps of every kind, The science shifts, and old alarm awakes No longer. Nature’s facts will have their say, And cost and consequence return to view; The age of slogans slowly fades away— What once seemed settled now invites review.*

Cosmic and Scientific Frontiers

Beneath the Antarctic ice and ancient seas, New continents are mapped and riches shown; While boyish hands in Texas garages seize The atom’s spark and claim a record crown. SpaceX files its trillion-dollar dream, And planets gather near the moonlit swarm; The past and future in one vision gleam— From Pangea’s shore to fusion’s glowing form. O curious age, when children split the core And empires reach beyond the final shore.*

Miscellaneous

When timing fails and longing turns to dust, The things we crave arrive when we no more Require them; such is life’s ironic trust— A quiet lesson from the Königsberg shore.*

Tom Steyer, the Democratic billionaire climate activist, is running for California governor. | Meg Kinnard/AP By Tyler Katzenberger and Blake Jones05/19/2026 09:00 AM EDT SACRAMENTO, California — Democrat Tom Steyer’s position on a data-center moratorium is getting harder to pin down. In a candidate questionnaire released Monday by the environmental group Greenpeace, the billionaire climate activist and gubernatorial hopeful indicated he supports a temporary ban on new data center construction until California enacts new ratepayer protections and sustainability rules for the hulking AI factories. Earlier this year, however, Steyer told POLITICO that he didn’t think California needed a moratorium, but that he would be “absolutely maniacal” about enforcing two rules: “you can never raise people’s electric rates” and “you can absolutely never steal people’s water.” When asked to explain the discrepancy Monday, Steyer campaign spokesperson Kevin Liao said that the billionaire is not calling for a temporary ban on new data center construction — while maintaining that his broader position in favor of holding the facilities to strict ratepayer and sustainability protections remains unchanged. “As Tom has repeatedly said, any new data centers must not increase electricit...

Longitudinally, more frequent gardening was associated with slower declines in gait speed and a slower progression of cellular indicators of aging between ages 79 and 90. Comparing median values, frequent gardeners lived over a year longer than their peers not engaged in gardening. The paper was published in the Journal of Environmental Psychology. In modern times, people live longer than ever before, and as a result, the global population of older adults is increasing rapidly. Some estimates state that by 2030, one in six people worldwide will be aged 60 or over, and this number is expected to increase to over 2.1 billion people by 2050. Because of this, supporting healthy aging has become an urgent public priority. Healthy aging means growing older while maintaining as much physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being as possible. The goal is not simply to live longer, but to live better. It does not mean avoiding all illness, because health problems naturally become more common with age. Instead, it means preserving function, independence, dignity, and quality of life for as long as possible. Study author Janie Corley and her colleagues investigated whether gardening frequency is associated with baseline levels and long-term trajectories of a broad set of aging markers—psychological wellbeing, physical function, biological aging, and mortality risk. They analyzed data from the Lothian Birth Cohort 1921, a Scottish research cohort made up of people who were born in 1921 and who mostly lived in the Lothian region of Scotland, around Edinburgh. It is one of the longest-running longitudinal studies in the world, following individuals from early old age into their 90s with repeated health assessments. When the participants of this study were 11 years old, they took a national intelligence assessment (... [Truncated]",

Daily roundup Spark: Our top stories Contact Privacy Privacy Manager Accessibility Terms © 2026 ScienceAlert Pty Ltd YOUR DAILY RHYTHMS MAY HELP SLOW BIOLOGICAL AGING, STUDY SUGGESTS Health21 May 2026By David Nield Add ScienceAlert on Google (master1305/iStock/Getty Images) We're all a certain number of years and months and days old, but alongside this chronological age is a biological age: the rate at which our bodies are wearing down. Now it appears that steady and settled daily rhythms – with regular, consistent time carved out for both rest and activity – might help to slow down this biological aging. That's according to new research led by a team from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. We know that daily rhythms tend to change as we age, with older people tending to go to bed earlier, for example. The new findings suggest that these changes might be directly linked to biological aging. If it's put into place early enough, a routine that's predictable and balanced could hold the potential to have an anti-aging effect, and lead to a healthier, longer life, the research suggests. For now, though, these signals are just clues rather than definitive proof. \"Our findings suggest rest-activity rhythms may be useful markers of the rate of physiological aging in adults,\" says psychopathologist Adam Spira from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. \"If supported by future research, these rhythms might emerge as potential targets for interventions to slow the aging process.\" The researchers analyzed a week's worth of activity data from 207 elderly adults, checking for movement, sleep, and light exposure. The team looked at how consistent the patterns were, when rest and activity peaked, and how big the differences were between periods of rest and periods of activity. Four epigenetic clocks were used in the analysis to show how changes in the midpoint hour (x-axis) of rest (left) and sleep (right) were associated with biological aging (y-axis). (Lui et al., JAMA Netw. Open, 2026) This data was then checked against four 'epigenetic clock' scores. These clocks all use blood biomarkers in slightly different ways to assess biological age, looking at chemical markers on DNA that signify wear and tea... [Truncated]",

(Screenshot via @molcranenewman/X) The murder of Brian Thompson was, in the Mangionistas’ view, the propaganda of the deed that should galvanize similar acts of terror. Sign in here to read more. Paraphrasing a “radical” associated with the 1960s-era Students for a Democratic Society, the late David Horowitz once said of the activists’ outlook: “The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.” That quote came to mind when I heard a nauseating diatribe from a handful of women who showed up at a Manhattan courthouse on Monday in support of Luigi Mangione, the man accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December 2024. The three activists, who described themselves as “Mangionistas,” seemed to revel in the taboos they were violating. They were thrilled at the degree to which their antisocial celebration of this act of human sacrifice and the pain that reverberates from it shocked their audience. Indeed, the activists took turns one-upping one another in a ghoulish contest to see which of them could more profoundly offend the sensibilities of their well-adjusted spectators: See more “I’m saying fuck Brian Thompson. I don’t give a flying fuck he died,” says Ashley Rojas, wearing her press badge provided by @NYCMayorsOffice.

Two young women wearing city-issued press passes around their necks were saying things that reporters hardly ever say. “I’m standing on business, fuck Brian Thompson,” one of the women said about the CEO of UnitedHealthcare who was gunned down in cold blood outside a hotel in midtown Manhattan in December 2024. The woman slapped a paper fan in her palm for emphasis, then added: “I don’t give a flying fuck he died.” A video of that comment posted by a New York Daily News reporter on X has been viewed 3.8 million times. You could see their press credentials, which said: “Press Identification City of New York.” Just moments earlier, the same woman said that she and her two friends were part of a group called “The Mangionistas.” “We’re essentially here to be Luigi Mangione’s advocate as well as bring, um, social issues to light,” she said, her lips shiny with lip gloss.

Published on May 20, 2026 at 15:01 | Written by Arezki Amiri | Reading time : 4 minutes © Russia’s Reported 511 Billion Barrel Oil Find In Antarctica. Credit: ShutterstockShare this post Share on X Send through Whatsapp Copy the link Russian research ships have been firing sound waves at the seafloor in the Weddell Sea, a remote stretch of water off Antarctica claimed by the United Kingdom. The seismic readings they gathered point to an estimated 511 billion barrels of oil, a volume that nearly doubles Saudi Arabia’s known reserves. Britain’s House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee received that figure in evidence earlier this year, and the number has pulled a long-dormant question into open view. Russia holds no territorial claim in Antarctica. Argentina and Chile dispute Britain’s claim to the Weddell Sea. Yet Russian vessels continue surveying the seabed there, and lawmakers in London are now pressing a simple question: is this research, or is it prospecting under a scientific flag? Russian research ship Akademik Alexander Karpinsky undertook oil and gas surveys in previously-unexplored areas covered by treaty. Image credit: Rosgeo The answer cuts directly into the Antarctic Treaty. Signed in 1959, the pact dedicates the continent to peace and science. Its 1991 Environmental Protocol sharpens the restriction: any mineral resource activity not tied to scientific research is flatly prohibited. Russia has signed both agreements. A FINE LINE BETWEEN SCIENCE AND PROSPECTING The vessel Alexander Karpinsky, operated by the Russian mineral exploration firm Rosgeo, carried out the surveys during the 65th Russian Antarctic Expedition. Professor Klaus Dodds, a geopolitics specialist at Royal Holloway, University of London, told the committee in written testimony that the work could be construed as prospecting rather than genuine research. He described it as a possible precursor for future resource extraction, Newsweek reported. Seismic surveys map rock layers beneath the seabed with sound ... [Truncated]",

SpaceX on Wednesday submitted documents to move forward with its highly anticipated initial public offering (IPO), as the revolutionary company that's pursuing the eventual colonization of Mars and deploying space-based AI data centers. The company, led by CEO Elon Musk, has grown into the world's largest space business and is expected to become the first U.S. company to go public with a market value of more than $1 trillion at the time of its IPO. SpaceX plans to offer its shares on the Nasdaq stock exchange using the ticker symbol \"SPCX\" and will also trade on the recently launched Nasdaq Texas exchange, as the company is headquartered in Starbase, Texas. Founded by Musk in 2002, SpaceX has seen its business rise in recent years with the deployment of Starlink satellites that provide internet service to consumers, while it also pioneered the use of reusable rockets that can land and be relaunched to make space launches more commercially viable. MUSK SAYS TESLA, SPACEX TO BUILD ADVANCED CHIP MANUFACTURING FACILITY SpaceX's IPO may be the largest in history by a U.S. company. (Getty Images) Starlink has become a key driver of its business, accounting for most of its $18.67 billion in revenue last year. However, despite that revenue, there's a catch – it reported a loss of about $4.9 billion last year as it nearly doubled its capital expenditures to $20.7 billion in 2025. In 2024, SpaceX reported a profit of about $791 mil... [Truncated]",

Published on May 20, 2026 at 08:45 | Written by Sarah Jones | Reading time : 3 minutes © The Daily Galaxy --Great Discoveries Channel - Scientists Built an Earth Map Tool That Reveals Where Your Home Was 320 Million Years AgoShare this post Share on X Send through Whatsapp Copy the link A group of Earth scientists led by Utrecht University has created an online tool that shows where any place on Earth was located hundreds of millions of years ago. Using a refined geological reconstruction model, the platform lets users trace the movement of continents and tectonic plates all the way back to the age of Pangea. The research, published in PLOS One, gives scientists a much sharper view of Earth’s ancient geography. The model could help researchers studying climate history, fossils, biodiversity, and the evolution of long-vanished continents. That matters because latitude strongly influences climate. Scientists trying to understand ancient ecosystems therefore need to know not only the age of rocks and fossils, but also where those rocks originally formed. Earlier paleogeographic models already attempted this kind of reconstruction, though many lacked detailed information about smaller tectonic plates and fragmented continental blocks. EARTH’S CONTINENTS REBUILT The new platform, Paleolatitude.org, allows users to enter any modern location and see its estimated latitude at different points in Earth’s history. The current reconstruction stretches back 320 million years, covering the formation and breakup of Pangea. The U.S. capital once sat at a completely different latitude. Credit: Paleolatitude.org Researchers behind the project explain in PLOS One that the updated model includes the movement of smaller tectonic plates as well as “lost continents” that disappeared long ago into Earth’s mantle. Among them are Greater Adria, the Tethys Himalayas, and Argoland. Pieces of these ancient landmasses still exist today as folded rock formations inside mountain ranges across the Me... [Truncated]",

Trump won the future. T he initial read of the summit between President Donald Trump and Chairman Xi Jinping is that it was mostly a snooze. Trump didn’t get Xi to cry uncle on trade. Xi didn’t get geopolitical running room. But when you look at the sweep of the last decade, I don’t think there is anything but one conclusion: Trump defeated Xi Jinping. Go back to January 17, 2017. Just three days before Trump’s inauguration, Xi Jinping stepped onto the stage at Davos and delivered a full-throated defense of globalization and free trade. It drew almost universal admiration of the Davoisie elite. The symbolism was as explicit as it got: The Chinese Communist Party was pitching itself as the new custodian of the liberal economic order that America had built and that Trump was threatening to abandon. “No one will emerge as the winner in a trade war,” Xi said. But this wasn’t just a matter of one pilot taking charge for another. The whole ship was meant to be rebuilt along Chinese lines. The governance structures overseeing this order were “no longer appropriate” Xi declared. The replacement was to be the Belt and Road Initiative, which was enshrined in the CCP constitution that year. The idea was to connect 147 countries, two-thirds of the wo... [Truncated]",

(Jonathan Ernst/Reuters) Did they ever really mean it? Sign in here to read more. Did they ever really mean it? W hat killed the climate alarmism that was once common currency on the Democratic left? Instrumental political utility, and the diminishing returns that Democratic politicians were generating by preaching apocalypticism to the converted. At least, that is the lament of Syracuse University professor Matthew Huber in his widely read, mid-May New York Times op-ed. “For the past several months, Democratic elites have been debating how much to talk about climate change, if at all,” he wrote, “in part because these new candidates have narrowed their focus to energy affordability to win back the working class.” The tacit admission in that acknowledgment is that the activists’ go-to remedies for the ills of climate change are policies that limit the public’s access to goods and services by making them costlier. At a time when “affordability” is the problem, climate alarmism is just one of many expendable luxuries. The shift in Democratic messaging, Huber added, feels like “the end of an era.” For nearly 20 years, progressive activists and their representatives advocated a “New Deal–like investment program” designed to eliminate America’s contributions to atmospheric heat-trapping emissions. Only recently, though, have those activists and politicians noticed the ex... [Truncated]",

(Toby Melville/Reuters) It’s no revelation that the British economy is in a mess, and it’s no revelation that Britain’s Labour government rarely misses an opportunity to make things even worse. And so the country’s finance minister (chancellor of the exchequer) is now asking British supermarkets to put a cap on prices on certain staples. That’s bad enough, and so is the inducement she is offering these retailers to fall into line — the relaxation of certain regulations. And what are these regulations? According to the Financial Times, they could include packaging rules. This refers to (of course!) net zero regulations under which retailers are charged for the packaging they use. On top of that, the government could delay “costly changes to rules around healthy food.” The latter relates to the futile and patronizing war against obesity. These are regulations that should never have been introduced in the first place. That their relaxation can now be used by the government to induce supermarkets to adopt a bad (and, if these arrangements last any length of time, probably counterproductive) pricing policy is just another reminder that regulation should be confined to the essentials. The essentials include neither net zero nor the war against obesity, as the government has just proved by offering them as a bargaining chip. return-icon Return to The Corner Andrew Stuttaford is the editor of National Review's Capital Matters.

(Screenshot) The White House on Wednesday accused Tucker Carlson of spreading “fake news” a day after the controversial right-wing podcaster told an Israeli news station that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dragged the US into the war with Iran. In a statement to Channel 13, the White House said Carlson “is a low-IQ person who spreads fake news for cheap publicity,” repeating a slur US President Donald Trump has used himself to describe the podcaster.

President Trump took bold, decisive action to protect the American people — something presidents have talked about for 47 years, but only this President has had the courage to address.” Trump has vociferously denied that Netanyahu talked him into the war.

(Christine Olsson/Reuters) ‘The science” should not be a thing. Science is not dogma, but a voyage of endless intellectual exploration in which blind alleys are part of the process. Some scientific facts may be “settled,” but that’s a difficult determination when we are discussing projections far into the future. And so we come to Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 8.5. This was the gloomiest of the four main scenarios prepared for the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 2014. Each “pathway” described what was thought would happen if greenhouse gases reached a certain concentration in the atmosphere. If RCP8.5 was followed, the “likely” increase in mean global surface temperature by 2100 would have been 2.6-4.8°C, with a mean of 3.7 °C, a large-scale increase. RCP8.5 — and its roughly analogous but supposedly more sophisticated successor model, known as SSP5-8.5 — was always intended as an extreme scenario, but alarmist advocates and journalists often portrayed it as a baseline. Now, these trajectories have been found to have become “implausible” by the committee responsible for setting out the scenarios for the next IPCC assessment. President Trump reacted to the news with glee: “GOOD RIDDANCE! After 15 years of Dumocrats promising that ‘Climate Change’ is going to destroy the Planet, the United Nations TOP Climate Committee just admitted that its own projections (RCP8.5) were WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!” The truth is more complicated. T... [Truncated]",

General technology GOOGLE QUIETLY NERFED ITS AI PRO PLAN, AND HERE'S WHAT YOU GET NOW Google claims a fairer approach, while users call it a \"scam.\"By Tushar Mehta• 15 hours ago •0••Add AndroidAuthority on GoogleTL;DR After announcing a price cut for its AI Ultra plan, Google is imposing stricter usage limits on its AI Pro plan. Google says it is switching to a new credit system based on the compute utilized by your prompt. While Google says it’s more effective, some users call it a scam. Google made several AI-centric announcements at the I/O 2026 conference yesterday. Among them was the revised pricing for its AI Ultra plan, which has now been slashed by $50. While Google proudly announced the price cut for the uppermost plan, it also introduced a new $100 per month AI Ultra plan (slotted between the original $200 Ultra and the $20 Pro) with fewer perks and lower limits. However, it conveniently avoided talking about the revised usage limits it is now imposing on other plans’ prices below. Don’t want to miss the best from Android Authority?

Earlier today, Android Authority‘s Managing Editor, Adamya Sharma, received an email notifying her of the changes to the Google AI Pro. As per the email, Google is now switching to a new credit system that defines token usage limits based on the “complexity of your prompt, features you use, and the length of the chat.” Despite Google insisting on a fair mechanism, user on Reddit calls them “totally scam” because a single text prompt burned through 13% of their quota. Additionally, Google is now following Anthropic and will use five-hour windows to restrict usage, with the limits refreshing after each cycle completes until your weekly limit is reached. These limits will also apply to other AI products outside of Gemini, including Antigravity and Flow. However, it’s unclear whether there are any changes to the context windows as well. Google is also discontinuing 1,000 free AI credits for Flow, but says users’ experience shouldn’t change. Users can track their credit consumption from the Usage ... [Truncated]",

Billionaire Mark Cuban joined President Donald Trump at a May 18 event on drug prices. The Trump administration announced the expansion of TrumpRx.gov, a government website listing discounted prescription drugs negotiated by his administration. The website will refer people to private-sector online pharmacies and drug-pricing websites, including Cuban's Cost Plus Drugs, Amazon Pharmacy, and GoodRx. \"Republicans want cheaper drugs. Independents want cheaper drugs. Democrats want cheaper drugs,\" Cuban said at the event. \"I think we're going to do something special.\" Cuban's partnership with Trump may have raised eyebrows for some people, since the former \"Shark Tank\" judge and owner of the Dallas Mavericks endorsed Trump's opponent, former Vice President Kamala Harris.

CBS News reported in 2016 Cuban was escalating his criticism of Trump, saying the then-presumptive nominee was getting \"stupider\" before his eyes. \"I was supporting him.

(Kent Nishimura/Reuters) If there is a ‘chilling effect’ in Massie’s loss, it will also be one that reinforces the desirable stigma around antisemitic agitation. Sign in here to read more. Before his resounding primary loss on Tuesday night, outgoing Representative Thomas Massie lent credence to the notion that foreign interests and American fifth columnists beholden to them contributed to what his allies called a “billionaire plot” to oust him from Congress. Indeed, the opposition to Massie pumped millions of dollars into his race, among them “pro-Israel groups like the United Democracy Project and Trump allies like MAGA KY,” according to NOTUS. But these are Americans engaging in protected political speech. When I last checked, a self-described “libertarian Republican” would typically not object to, say, the Supreme Court’s decision in Citizens United. Rather, what Massie and his fans were attempting to launder into the discourse was the implied claim that his deep-pocketed adversaries were beholden more to Israel’s interests than America’s. “There’s going to be a chilling effect as a result of this race,” said one despondent Massie supporter, State Representative Steven Doan, following the representative’s loss. By that, it’s likely that he and his supporters meant the extent to which Donald Trump’s iron grip on his party will discourage Republicans from defying the president or offering reasonable criticisms of his conduct. That’s a f... [Truncated]",

On Tuesday at Google IO 2026, the company announced new native Android app creation capabilities in its web-based Google AI Studio, shrinking a process that takes weeks of setup and coding down to minutes. The company also said that consumers will be able to use Gemini AI to find the apps they need, both on the Play Store and the web, expanding opportunities for developers to have their apps discovered. Google says the new capabilities could make sense for anyone from a seasoned developer looking to prototype a new app quickly to a first-time creator. By offering the ability to essentially vibe-code Android apps via web-based tools, Google is ramping up the competition with other AI-powered development tools, like Cursor, Replit, Lovable, Claude Code, and others, while also opening up Android development to a new type of user: a non-technical creator. The news also represents an expansion of Google’s earlier addition of AI-powered coding with Gemini in its desktop version of Android Studio. The apps are built with the Kotlin programming language using Google’s Jetpack Compose toolkit and with support integration with hardware sensors like GPS, Bluetooth, and NFC, the company says. However, the resulting creations, for now, are only meant to be used personally, as publishing for family and friends is still on the roadmap. The company suggests the technology could be used for the creation of personal utilities and simple social apps, hardware-enabled experiences, or AI-powered experiences. For now, would-be app developers can use the embedded Android Emulator directly... [Truncated]",

By Jackson Chen May 19, 2026 4:15 pm EST Google As society helplessly watches tech giants infuse AI into everything, Google has at least introduced some new AI-powered tools that could help with the arduous work associated with scientific discovery. During Google I/O 2026, the tech giant announced Gemini for Science, a collection of experimental tools that can help researchers generate hypotheses, conduct testing and understand scientific literature. Gemini for Science includes three primary features: Hypothesis Generation, Computational Discovery and Literature Insights. As the name suggests, Hypothesis Generation will help the first few steps of the scientific method by digging through millions of scientific papers to come up with theories or challenges. That's all to say the tool will help a researcher create a hypothesis, but Google added that the claims generated by this tool are \"deeply verified and supported by clickable citations\" for \"absolute rigor.\" Once a hypothesis is created, researchers can move on to the Computational Discovery tool to put the theory to the test. Google describes this tool as \"an agentic search engine\" that can generate thousands of tests and experiments much faster than when done manually. Lastly, Gemini for Science will have Literature Insights, an AI-powered chat that looks through ... [Truncated]",

Image credit: NBC 5 NewsShare this post Share on X Send through Whatsapp Copy the link At eight years old, Aiden McMillan started reading about nuclear physics. He wasn’t doing it for school. He was just interested. For the next two years, he didn’t touch a single piece of equipment. He read, studied concepts, and ran calculations. Only then did he start building. By the time he was 12, that quiet start had become something few adults ever attempt. Working out of a spare room at home and a nonprofit workshop in West Dallas, the seventh-grader built a machine that produced nuclear fusion, putting him in line for a Guinness World Record. Aiden McMillan discussing fusion project. Image credit: NBC 5 News McMillan told NBC DFW that he pursued the project simply because he found it interesting. “It doesn’t make me jump higher. It doesn’t make me write faster. It doesn’t do anything for me,” he said. “But in the grand scheme of things, fusion as a whole, in my opinion, is the energy of the future.” TWO YEARS OF READING, THEN TWO YEARS OF BUILDING McMillan, a student in the Dallas Independent School District, spent the first two years of the project studying nuclear physics before he assembled anything. He needed to understand the underlying science before he could translate it into hardware. The next two years were spent building and testing. He worked through seven different prototypes before reaching a result. Components failed, designs were scrapped, and the process required skills well outside a standard middle school curriculum, including how to handle vacuum pumps and manage high-voltage equipment safely.

For years, scientists and pet owners believed they already had the answer. Catnip seemed like the perfect feline attractant. Cats rolled on it, rubbed their faces into it, and acted as if they had discovered pure joy in plant form. But a new study from Iwate University in Japan has complicated that familiar story. When cats had a real choice between catnip and another plant called silver vine, most of them ignored the catnip completely. The finding surprised researchers because catnip still contains the powerful chemicals known to trigger the classic feline response. Yet when cats could walk away freely, they often chose silver vine instead. The study raises a bigger question about animal behavior. Just because a chemical can trigger a response in a lab does not mean animals actually prefer it in nature. CATNIP’S FAMOUS REPUTATION Catnip has long enjoyed celebrity status among cat owners. Pet stores fill shelves with catnip toys, sprays, and dried leaves. Scientists also used it as a classic example of how plants influence animal behavior. The active compound behind catnip’s effects is called cis-trans nepetalactone. This chemical activates sensory receptors in many cats and leads to rolling, rubbing, licking, and playful behavior. LAB TESTS FAVORED CATNIP In laboratory tests, catnip performs extremely well. Researchers present cats with the plant or purified chemicals, and the animals usually respond enthusiastically. But laboratory settings create limits. Cats in these studies cannot freely wander away or compare different plants in a natural setting. “Catnip can make cats respond in laboratory tests, but that does not mean cats will choose it in a more natural, free-choice setting,” said Reiko Uenoyama, assistant professor at Iwate University and first author of the paper. “Our study shows that what cats can respond to and what they actually choose are not always the same.” CATS DIDN’T ENGAGE WITH CATNIP To explore what cats genuinely prefer, researchers created a more natural experiment in Morioka, northern Japan. They planted live catnip in a garden and placed freshly cut silver vine branches nearby. Then t... [Truncated]",

Your task is to produce a high-quality curated post using advanced grouping techniques:
- Employ sophisticated thematic analysis: detect latent connections, narrative arcs, opposing viewpoints, chronological progressions, intersections with current events, and deeper conceptual clusters.
- Create 3–7 meaningful, tightly coherent groups (avoid superficial or forced groupings; prefer fewer strong clusters over many weak ones).
- Choose precise, evocative topic names.

For each group:
- Start with "## Topic Name"
- Follow immediately with a classical rhymed and metrical poem (e.g., Shakespearean sonnet, Petrarchan sonnet, limerick sequence, heroic couplets, or similar form) that serves as an engaging, insightful preamble capturing the theme, context, and why it matters now. Present the entire poem in italicized Markdown by wrapping the whole poem block between * and * on their own lines (like a block). NEVER add **bold** around the ## group titles — output them exactly as plain ## Title Name.
- Then list the relevant bookmarks as bullet points:
  - **[og_title](url)**: One sharp, engaging sentence description (hooky, informative, and additive; refine og_description or write your own if better).
  - If og_image is a valid http/https URL, place the following immediately on the next line (no blank line):
    ![thumbnail](og_image)

Any true singletons go in a final "## Miscellaneous" section with the same format.  // ← CHANGED TO ##

Output EXACTLY the complete clean markdown body for the blog post (starting with the first ## header; no extra text, no introductions, no closing remarks, no separators).
