As the founding guitarist of Type O Negative‚ Kenny Hickey combined the darkness of horror films with gargantuan six-string chops‚ creating a sound that had never been heard before or since. These days‚ the sounds Hickey helped create are called “gothic metal.” If that’s new to you‚ take a ride down memory lane and dig into records like Bloody Kisses (1993)‚ October Rust (1996)‚ and Life is Killing Me (2003)‚ and you’ll catch the vibe. That aside‚ when Hickey isn’t building the most killer pedalboard you’ve ever seen‚ he can be found working on new music with EYE AM‚ a seething project loaded with the same The post Kenny Hickey Interview: 11 Albums That Changed My Life appeared first on ClassicRockHistory.com.

The hunt is on to find meteorites from an object that hit the Earth’s atmosphere 100 kilometers (62 miles) west of Berlin over the weekend. Although bits of rock would be most prized‚ scientists are also keen to collect as many photographs of the descent of the meteor 2024BX1 as possible.Central Europeans awake at the right time were given warning of the arrival of a 1-meter (3-foot) wide asteroid in the early hours of Sunday morning. This probably represents the most populated area for an anticipated impact by a space rock yet‚ although the timing meant only night owls saw it.Until recently‚ meteors came entirely out of the blue (or the black‚ depending on the time of day/night). However‚ increasing observations of the skies mean we sometimes spot small asteroids shortly before they hit the atmosphere‚ creating the opportunity to issue alerts. One such case achieved meme-worthy status when the incoming object was described as being the size of half a giraffe.However‚ that space rock went down off the coast of Iceland‚ leaving no chance of finding debris and a very small pool of potential observers. It’s inevitable that with most of the planet covered by oceans and much of the rest barely populated desert even when we predict an object’s arrival few will get to witness it. A subsequent smaller asteroid burned up over the English Channel last year‚ ensuring no one was directly beneath it‚ but thrilling photographers from the heavily populated coasts.The 2024BX1 meteor was seen from eastern Germany‚ Poland‚ and Czechia. Had it been a few hours earlier it might have been seen by millions. Instead‚ it arrived at 1:32 am local time – not the best time to attract crowds‚ particularly with overnight temperatures well below zero.Nevertheless‚ some people were onto it.    IFLScience is not responsible for content shared from external sites.Like last year’s event‚ the prediction came from prolific minor planet hunter Krisztián Sárneczky‚ who noticed the flicker in his images.             IFLScience is not responsible for content shared from external sites.Sárneczky’s alert‚ shared to a wider audience by the International Meteor Organization and NASA Asteroid Watch gave a 75-minute warning for those who were awake and online. The IMO even provided anyone too far away to view the event themselves with links to webcams‚ some of which turned out to be pointed appropriately.         Research into these events always benefits from more data‚ and anyone who saw‚ or better still recorded‚ the meteor‚ is invited to report it here. Space rocks usually need to be bigger than this for pieces to survive the atmosphere and reach the ground. However‚ there has been speculation online that the steep angle of entry and low velocity relative to Earth might have enabled pieces to survive. If so‚ hunters probably have until the next snowfall to maximize their chances.If any pieces are found‚ it would be the second fresh asteroid discovery of the year. On December 29‚ almost a hundred people across four American states reported seeing a fireball. Their assistance‚ along with CCTV recordings and the AllSky7 video network allowed meteorite hunters to pinpoint the location near the California/Arizona border. On New Year’s Day‚ three fragments weighing 450 grams (16 ounces) were collected from the Arizona desert.

PBS’s weekly political roundtable show Washington Week with The Atlantic lamented that Republican voters would never heed the wisdom of the Washington Post’s fact checker. In the latest edition‚ two pundits from The Atlantic responded to comments by Wall Street Journal reporter Nancy Youssef considering how potential candidates Biden and Trump could respond to the current international instability. Nancy Youssef: ….To me‚ it could go one of two ways in that you could argue that the world is so unstable right now in conflict in so many places and that the Biden Administration is not handling it well. You could also argue that because the world is so complex and there are so many conflicts going on and they're so nuanced‚ you need somebody with decades of experience to manage it. So‚ it seems to me‚ if you're a voter‚ I think that's the question you're asking yourself. That leaves out the question of how the current president's policies may have caused the current instability. Host Jeffrey Goldberg‚ who is also editor of The Atlantic‚ pivoted to his staff writer Adam Harris to take up the thread. Goldberg: But‚ Adam‚ I somehow don't think that Donald Trump is going to take the position just articulated by Nancy that‚ oh well [laughter]. Donald Trump is going to say‚ hey‚ look‚ Joe Biden‚ he's an old guy and he can't handle all this. Adam Harris: Well‚ one of the first things‚ a couple of days ago‚ maybe about a week ago‚ Trump actually said on the campaign trail‚ right‚ I am the first president in years and years that didn`t have any wars‚ right? So‚ and to voters‚ are they going to go back and check that? Are they going to read [laughter] the Washington Post fact-check? Is this base actually going to be--” Goldberg: I mean‚ if there's a meme on TikTok‚ then they will definitely go check it but I'm not so confident that they're going to fact-check it…. Behind the mockery of those Republicans that barely read‚ perhaps the liberal press sees some anti-Democratic vulnerability in the fact that under the supposedly dangerously nutty Trump the United States didn’t actually invade any countries or start any wars‚ unlike the progressive Obama administration. The Washington Post did run a typical 'Four Pinocchios' fact-check on Trump’s town hall statement (“I had no wars. I’m the only president in 72 years‚ I didn’t have any wars”) by its chief “fact checker‚” Glenn Kessler‚ who has a substantial presence here at NewsBusters. Older voters remember that Jimmy Carter never started any wars. He just managed 444 days of American hostages in Iran‚ briefly interrupted by a disastrous rescue attempt. Joe Biden had a disastrous pullout from Afghanistan‚ which this group aggressively forgets.  Kessler compiled over 30‚000 "false or misleading" statements by President Trump for a database‚ which the paper promptly discontinued when Biden entered office. That makes the Post the gold standard for reliability at Washington Week. One can’t imagine the taxpayer-supported Washington Week ever urging Biden supporters to race to a fact-check‚ perhaps because there have been few fact-checks of the Democratic president‚ who keeps telling whoppers without consequence.
