Mick Cronins blunt answer about what it will take for a deep UCLA run
UCLA's hopes of returning to the Sweet 16 were dashed on Sunday night.
The No. 7-seeded Bruins were bounced in the March Madness Round of 32 by No. 2-seeded UConn in a 73-57 blowout loss. Mick Cronin's team reached the Final Four in 2021 and the Sweet 16 in the two seasons that followed, but it has yet to reach the second weekend for the third straight season.
After the game, Cronin was his typical blunt self when asked what it would take to get UCLA back to making deep runs in the NCAA tournament.

A laser-beam dream team has been **** embled to advance nuclear fusion, the near-limitless energy source that is being researched in labs around the world.
The promising effort has pooled knowledge from scientists at the United States Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology, bringing together "heavyweights" of laser expertise, according to a news release.

U.S. President Donald Trump and top Iranian officials exchanged dueling threats Friday as widening protests swept across parts of the Islamic Republic, further escalating tensions between the countries after America bombed Iranian nuclear sites in June.
At least eight people have been killed so far in violence surrounding the demonstrations, which were sparked in part by the collapse of Iran’s rial currency but have increasingly seen crowds chanting anti-government slogans.
The protests, now in their sixth day, have become the biggest in Iran since 2022, when the death of 22-year-old Mahsa A

BitMEX co-founder and Maelstrom CIO Arthur Hayes thinks 2026-2027 will see the "meat of money printing" which will be beneficial to Bitcoin (BTC).
During a recent interview with CoinDesk, Hayes talked in detail about the upcoming U.S. midterm election in November 2026 and its impact on Bitcoin's price.
Hayes argued the midterm election will see the Republicans printing money and handing out "goodies" to gain votes as their odds of winning the House are around 50% on Polymarket.

The origins of complex, nucleated cellular life – everything from amoebas to humans – may date back a lot further in Earth's history than we thought.
A new study tracing the earliest steps toward complex life suggests that this transformation from simpler ancestors began almost 3 billion years ago – long before our planet had the oxygen levels needed to support a thriving eukaryotic biosphere.
That's almost a billion years earlier than some estimates place the rise of complex cells, pointing to a surprisingly long, drawn-out evolutionary buildup rather than a rapid leap in complexity.

'Off-the-shelf' cancer therapy hunts and kills deadly tumors, new study finds
Scientists at UCLA have developed an "off-the-shelf" cell-based immunotherapy that was able to track down and kill pancreatic cancer cells even after they had spread to other organs.
In a mouse study, the treatment slowed cancer growth, extended survival and remained effective even within the harsh environment of solid tumors.

The same tools that allow artificial intelligence to help design life-saving vaccines could also be used to build bioweapons, Anthropic’s head of the safety team said recently.
“We focus on CBRN—chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear,” Logan Graham told CBS’s “60 Minutes.” in an interview aired last week. “And right now, we’re at the stage of figuring out, can these models help somebody make one of those?” He said Anthropic’s Claude AI model has been tested under extreme conditions to gauge how far it could go in helping humans do harm.

Fusion energy, the result of two lighter atoms coming together to form a heavier one, can release massive amounts of energy without harmful carbon pollution, making its potential widespread use a goal for many. Not only could its use eliminate reliance on dirty energy sources, but, in theory, it could provide humanity with virtually limitless, incredibly affordable, clean energy.
By diversifying clean energy sources with nuclear energy, like fusion, the atmosphere would contain fewer heat-trapping gases, which would cool the planet and lead to cleaner air and water, reducing pollution-related
