The volcano snail may sound (and look) like something from a fantasy novel‚ but it is a real creature that has adapted to live in the inhospitable would at the bottom of the ocean.What is the volcano snail?Volcano snail is one of the common names for Chrysomallon squamiferum‚ a species of deep-sea gastropod mollusk. The snail was first discovered in 2001 and was then referred to as the scaly-foot gastropod‚ receiving its formal scientific name in 2015. It is also sometimes referred to as the scaly-foot snail or sea pangolin.All these names come from the fact that the volcano snail is equipped with what looks like scale-mail that covers its foot. These dermal scales have evolved to protect it from the deadly environment it lives in.Where do volcano snails live? Volcano snails are extremely rare. They are a species of vent-endemic gastropods that live among the deep-sea hydrothermal vents at the bottom of the Indian ocean. At present‚ these snails are most prominently found in the Kairei hydrothermal vent field‚ followed by the Solitaire field‚ along the Central Indian Ridge.In 2011‚ an expedition also found a previously unknown population of volcano snails living around the Longqi vent field‚ along the Southwest Indian Ridge.Why are volcano snail shells special?As with much of nature‚ the appearance of the volcano snail‚ with its large dark shell and armored foot‚ is a product of its environment. The hydrothermal vents themselves are located around 2.4 kilometers (1.5 miles) down‚ while the waters that issue from them can reach temperatures of over 371C (700F). As such‚ this critter needs a way to survive in these inhospitable waters‚ and its shell and scales are just that.The volcano snails shell is made up of three layers of varying levels of durability. The outer part is a harder armor-like structure made from iron sulfide. It encases a softer layer of organic periostracum‚ which tends to form the outer coating of other shelled mollusks. Finally‚ the third layer is a calcified material known as aragonite.The snails scales are also part of its defenses‚ but not in the way you would think. They are not intended to protect the fleshy soft parts of the mollusk from predators‚ but rather to save them from themselves‚ as it were. Volcano snails don';t hunt for food per se; they create their own food from bacteria that grows inside a special pouch in their throats. These bacteria convert chemicals from the hydrothermal vents into energy (probably in the form of sugar) and feed the snail everything it needs through a process known as chemosynthesis.However‚ the bacteria produce large amounts of sulfur as a byproduct of this symbiotic relationship‚ which is toxic to the snail. The snail has therefore developed its scales‚ which have a structure that draws the sulfur away from its body and leaves it as an iron compound on its outside. The volcano snail has specially developed scales (called sclerites) that helps protect it from the toxins produced by the friendly bacteria that live in its throat.Image credit: Nakamura et al‚ PLOS ONE 2012 (CC BY 2.5)Are volcano snails endangered?Volcano snails are hardy little specimens if ever there were any. But while they may have evolved and adapted to survive in such harsh environments‚ they have not developed to survive human activity. It turns out that the hydrothermal vents they live around are also hot-spots for deep-sea mining. In particular‚ these vents are exploited for the polymetallic sulfide minerals that accumulate around them.In 2019‚ the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) placed the volcano snail on its list of endangered species. Although they are still prevalent in the Longqi vent field‚ their numbers have dropped significantly around the other vent fields.

For the first time‚ an exotic material known as a Wigner crystal formed solely from electrons has been visualized. These impossible-sounding crystals had been claimed before‚ but never confirmed directly. As well as proving its existence‚ the images revealed unexpected aspects of the strange crystals nature.Materials are composed of protons and electrons‚ as well as neutrons‚ because the attraction between them is needed for stability. However‚ in the 1930s‚ Eugene Wigner predicted that repulsion can do just as good a job as attraction in maintaining order‚ under the right circumstances. You can draw your own conclusions as to whether that is true in human affairs but ninety years later‚ we finally know that Wigner was right about the structure of a crystal lattice.Without intervening protons to attract them‚ electrons will try to get as far apart as possible. Under most circumstances‚ this leads them to fly apart. However‚ if some way can be found to maintain the density of electrons‚ they will arrange themselves at regular intervals to maintain as much distance as possible from each other.Imagine a group of people who dont like each other trapped together in a room. They want to get further away from the person on their left‚ but that would mean getting closer to the one on their right‚ so they maintain a rigid order: ie a crystal.Theoreticians proposed so-called Wigner crystals should exist when the electric potential energy between the electrons is more than 40 times larger than their kinetic energy. Since kinetic energy can be reduced with a combination of low temperatures and a suitable magnetic field‚ this is testable.Classical Wigner crystals were created in the 1970s by spraying electrons on a helium surface. However‚ these electrons are so distant from each other that they are more like isolated particles‚ and therefore not particularly interesting. Physicists are much more excited about using quantum behavior to pack an electron crystal closely enough that the electrons show wave-like cohesion.By trapping electrons in semiconductor layers just a few atoms thick‚ physicists created what were suspected to be Wigner crystals‚ but had trouble proving it. The electrons in these cases respond to magnetic fields in ways theory suggests a Wigner crystal should‚ but everything has been happening on too small a scale to see. Moreover‚ its possible crystal imperfections could produce similar behavior.There are literally hundreds of scientific papers that study these effects and claim that the results must be due to the Wigner crystal‚ Princeton Universitys Professor Ali Yazdani said in a statement. But one cant be sure‚ because none of these experiments actually see the crystal.By joining carbon atoms in two graphene sheets as consistently as possible‚ Yazdani and colleagues reduced the danger of imperfections producing Wigner-like behavior. They then ran a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) over the material to confirm their work.Just by changing the density‚ you can initiate this phase transition and find electrons spontaneously form into an ordered crystal.Yen-Chen TsuiOur group has been able to make unprecedentedly clean samples that made this work possible‚ Yazdani said. With our microscope we can confirm that the samples are without any atomic imperfection in the graphene atomic lattice or foreign atoms on its surface over regions with hundreds of thousands of atoms.The sheets were then cooled to less than a degree above absolute zero and placed in a magnetic field at right angles to the sample‚ creating an electron gas one electron thick between the graphene sheets.In our experiment‚ we can image the system as we tune the number of the electrons per unit area‚ said graduate student Yen-Chen Tsui. Just by changing the density‚ you can initiate this phase transition and find electrons spontaneously form into an ordered crystal.When the densities are low‚ the forces from neighboring electrons are small enough that other factors take over‚ and the electrons arrange themselves chaotically. However‚ as the electrons get squeezed together their repulsion forces them to make an ordered lattice‚ which becomes an electron liquid when either the density or temperature is increased further.The transition from crystal to liquid could be visualized with the STM‚ and Tsui said. Our work provides the first direct images of this crystal. We proved the crystal is really there and we can see it.The crystal has a triangular configuration‚ and while it can be tuned as the density is adjusted‚ it turned out that repulsion alone keeps it stable over a wide range of conditions‚ contrary to expectations.One of the key features of quantum mechanics is that subatomic particles like electrons exist as a probability curve over a range of positions‚ rather than having a precise location. This range known as the zero-point motion of the electrons because it occurs without elevated energy levels creates a blurriness in the crystals electrons location when observed.The team was able to measure the extent of this blurriness and Yazdani said; It turns out this quantum motion covers a third of the distance between them‚ making the Wigner crystal a novel quantum crystal.The description of the first Wigner crystal visualization is published open access in the journal Nature.

Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre went solo for Thursdays White House press briefing‚ so she shouldered all the questions‚ including the Middle East and the economy. It was on this latter topic where she was put through the gauntlet by Fox Newss Jacqui Heinrich and Fox Businesss Edward Lawrence as they called out the administrations channeling of Jim Carey in Dumb and Dumber in denying persistently high inflation.Lawrence cut to the chase with a brutal inflation fact-check:Fox Businesss @EdwardLawrence: I';m gonna ask you about inflation. So yesterday in the Rose Garden‚ the president said that when he came into office‚ inflation was skyrocketing‚ but it was 1.4 percent in January of 2021 and that was the 11th consecutive month at that time under pic.twitter.com/6ySNilLwNV Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) April 11‚ 2024Unsurprisingly‚ Jean-Pierre refused to engage and instead doubled down about inflation having taken off because‚ when Biden took office‚ the country was a pandemic that was closing down businesses‚ closing down schools‚ uh‚ and so‚ it was drastically disrupting the supply chain followed by the war in Ukraine.Lawrence didnt buy it: But the President didnt say the supply chain was being disrupted. He said inflation was skyrocketing.Jean-Pierre doubled down on the dishonesty‚ leaving Lawrence to ask a third and final time if Bidens really being honest with Americans (click expand):JEAN-PIERRE: But thats what he was referring to‚ right? Thats what was going on. Those were the things that were happening right before us. The pandemic it was taking thousands of lives a day when he he took office‚ schools were closed or majority of schools were closed‚ businesses were closing and we had a supply chain that was disrupted. And so‚ thats what the President was speaking to and laying out and then‚ inflation‚ down the road became even more increased even more because of the war that Russia had taken on into Ukraine.LAWRENCE: But...the Feds supply chain measure actually went down in in November at that time. So so is the President being honest about inflation?JEAN-PIERRE: The President has said what he said what he saw when he was when he took when he took office. The pandemic was happening‚ right? It disrupted the supply chain. We know‚ you know what happens when the supply chain is disrupted. You know what that leads to. And so‚ thats what he was speaking to and not only that we he had to we also saw a war in Ukraine that Mr Putin an aggressive aggression that Mr Putin was was putting into Ukraine set forth. And so‚ the president had to take historic action take aggressive action in dealing with disruption in the supply chain. He had to he released a Strategic Petroleum Reserve‚ so that we can deal with the supply chain and he continued to take action to lower cost. And thats what weve seen‚ whether its health care costs‚ whether its dealing with junk fees‚ whether its prescription drugs‚ lowering those costs. Thats what the President took action in. But we saw what was happening when the President took office. We did.Heinrich cited a report in Politico from former Chief of Staff Ron Klain in which he allegedly said President Biden needs to focus more on soaring prices Americans are paying than fixing bridges.After bringing that up‚ Heinrich tied it to the lack of a White House statement on the latest Producer Price Index (PPI): We didnt get any statement today on the PPI index. You know‚ why arent we hearing more from the White House about the issues that people are facing at grocery stores and paying rent?Jean-Pierres prepared answer cited the State of the Union as proof Biden has made very clear about what he understands what the Americans are facing and hes talked at almost every every event that hes had....about lowering costs.Along with listing off five different events where an aspect of the economy came up‚ she closed with the reality that Klain still supports Biden and formulaic lies about Republicans wanting to end entitlements.Heinrichs other economic question was about the Federal Reserve: Is it all inappropriate for the President to be commenting on what the Fed might or might not do with interest rate cuts?Jean-Pierre went down the but‚ Trump route by claiming Biden has giv[en] the Fed the space to make independent decisions unlike the last [President].Heinrich did‚ however‚ first ask about Iran:JACQUI TIME: I just wanted to clarify one of your earlier answers. Did the administration sent a direct warning to Iran not to attack Israel?KJP: We';ve been very clear. I Ive we';ve been I mean‚ you heard from the President right and laid out our commitment to pic.twitter.com/1ZF0W2QdFC Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) April 11‚ 2024Elsewhere‚ CNNs Kayla Tausche strayed from Team Bidens lionization of the latest state dinner with the Japanese Prime Minister to grill Jean-Pierre over the ethical hypocrisy of inviting Amazons Jeff Bezos and Apples Tim Cook when regulators in the Biden administration have sued both Amazon and Apple‚ alleging anti-competitive behavior that has caused public harm.Jean-Pierre tried to meander with another mangled mess and affront to the English language about the necessity of bipartisanship and inviting different types of people to state dinners‚ but Tausche reiterated the inconsistency:The Justice Department said just less than a month ago that Apple uses its control over the iPhone to engage in a broad‚ sustained‚ and illegal course of conduct‚ saying that that lawsuit should send a strong signal to other companies. What signal is the White House sending?Jean-Pierre maintained a comical wall of separation between the White House and Justice Department‚ but Tausche pointed out the administration still invite[d] them to dinner and it would seem to show Biden doesnt think that those companies did anything wrong.And‚ from the left‚ The Independents Andrew Feinberg provided the anti-Israel side of things by lecturing Jean-Pierre and the administration that respectfully‚ its not true that Biden is doing everything he can on getting humanitarian aid into Gaza.His second question was even more lubricious as he argued Republican presidential candidates when challenging an incumbent Democrat interfere in elections and national security (click expand):FEINBERG: Earlier this week‚ the former President met with Lord Cameron‚ the British Foreign Secretary. He has‚ in recent weeks‚ met with Viktor Orbn‚ the leader of Hungary. He has said hes spoken to Mohammed bin Salman‚ the de facto leader of Saudi Arabia. There is a long history of Republican presidential candidates meddling in foreign policy to undermine their Democratic opponents. Without getting into Hatch Act territory you know‚ telling people to vote for or against someone is the administration concerned that this private citizen could be working against U.S. interests in the interests of his own political ones?JEAN-PIERRE: And youre talking about his meeting specifically with FEINBERG: With with foreign leaders: Lord Cameron‚ his talking with MBS‚ Viktor Orbn‚ and others possibly.JEAN-PIERRE: So‚ look‚ a- look‚ as it relates to other other leaders and those types of meetings specifically‚ lets lets talk about David Cameron. The UK noted earlier this week it is common for officials from other countries to meet with representatives of different parties. That includes the United States‚ as we routinely meet with political leaders of different parties as well. For instance‚ we hosted Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid yesterday at the beginning of the week at the beginning of the week. And so‚ its not uncommon. I am going to be really careful here‚ because youre talking about a presidential candidate. Im going to be really mindful. I used David Cameron as an example‚ but Im going to be really mindful. Im not speaking beyond that.To see the relevant transcript from the April 11 briefing‚ click here.

CNN correspondent Donie OSullivan went to bat for the Biden Campaign on Thursdays edition of Anderson Cooper 360‚ where he said of conservative Christian concerns about Biden‚ Some of these fears are fueled by misinformation. The segment would re-air on Fridays CNN New Central‚ but showing the segment a second time did not make OSullivans claims any truer.In a pre-recorded report‚ OSullivan reported on the dangers of so-called Christian Nationalism‚ a scary sounding phrase with no discernible definition other than traditionally understood social conservatism. He also cited polling showing‚ Forty-four percent of Americans say the Bible should have at least some influence on U.S. law.That poll question is meaningless because when some people hear the question‚ they think of Old Testament dietary laws‚ while other people think of not allowing men to compete on womens sports teams‚ which is something everyone agreed with until a couple of years ago‚ but such nuances werent the point of OSullivans segment. His point was to portray conservatives as a bunch of out-touch‚ paranoid weirdos.Interviewing an unidentified woman on the street‚ OSullivan asked‚ Do you think‚ is America a Christian country? After the woman affirmed she does‚ OSullivan argued with her‚ But obviously in the Constitution there is that separation of church and state.Earlier in the segment‚ OSullivan interviewed some anti-Trump pastors and they got much easier questions‚ such as Why is Christian nationalism? In your view‚ such a threat? They also cited the Bible to justify their opposition to Trumps policies on things like immigration‚ but they probably would answer no to the above poll question.The woman held her ground‚ recalling that Yes‚ but then there';s also‚ always‚ when I went to public school‚ we were allowed to pray.After OSullivan followed up by asking what exactly she meant‚ When you say Christianity is under attack in America‚ you';re talking about in the schools‚ the teaching of --She answered‚ Not so much in the schools‚ but just -- I just can';t come up with anything right now. But I think the biggest thing is I just don';t trust Joe Biden.In a voiceover‚ OSullivan claimed that some of these fears are fueled by misinformation.After a clip of Trump discussing Bidens Easter/Transgender Visibility Day proclamation‚ OSullivan spun International Transgender Visibility Day takes place every year on March 31. This year‚ Easter Sunday also happened to fall on that day.No matter how many times the media pretends that Biden had nothing to do with Transgender Visibility Day‚ it will not change the fact that he decided to issue the proclamation acknowledging it.A second unidentified woman was then shown claiming‚ I think more that Christians are going to be discriminated against under Biden or a second term.After OSullivan asked her what that meant‚ she added‚ By making yesterday‚ which was the worldwide Christian celebration of the resurrection‚ Transgender Day. That was quite a slap in the face.OSullivan‚ again‚ started spinning I will just say that the days‚ they';ve had the Trans Awareness Day on the same date the past few years. It just happened that this year it fell on Easter Sunday.The woman replied‚ Okay. Thank you for correcting me. I appreciate that.Two things could be said of that. First‚ the fact‚ that woman was willing to listen to facts shows that conservative Christians are not the intransigent people OSullivan and Biden are trying to portray them as. Second‚ OSullivans should make sure those facts are actually facts and not spin.Here is a transcript for the April 11 show:Anderson Cooper 3604/11/20248:36 PM ETDONIE O';SULLIVAN (voice-over): Forty-four percent of Americans say the Bible should have at least some influence on U.S. law.Do you think‚ is America a Christian country?UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I believed that growing up‚ I did.O';SULLIVAN: Yeah.

Democrat-run cities across the U.S. are fast burning through taxpayer funds and citizen resources in order to accommodate the multitudes of illegal aliens who took them up on their offer of sanctuary. Among these beleaguered cities is Denver‚ whose communications liaison just days ago pleaded with illegal aliens to seek out opportunities further afield.Denver‚ a city of roughly 710‚000 souls that saw over 40‚000 illegal aliens arrive just last year‚ appears to be taking another bold step in the wrong direction.The city';s Democratic leadership has decided to risk financially compromising the Denver Police Department';s ability to fight crime in order to service the foreign nationals whose very presence in the country is unlawful.The city confirmed to the Daily Caller News Foundation that it will be cutting the DPD';s budget by $8.4 million roughly 1.9% of its total operating budget along with other critical municipal services so that it can provide $89.9 million worth of services to inbound illegal aliens‚ $25 million that has already been spent in the first quarter of 2024.Democrat Mayor Mike Johnston';s office has attempted to put a positive spin on the police department budget cuts‚ telling DCNF in a statement‚ ";Mayor Johnston and the city has invested to add 167 new police recruits to our force in 2024. This puts us on the path to meet the full authorized strength of the police department and improve our ability to respond to 911 calls and follow up on investigations across the city.";It is presently unclear to what extent these cuts will impact the ability of police to address Denver';s rock-bottom score of 1 on the Neighborhood Scout total crime index‚ where 100 is safest. The chances of becoming the victim of a violent crime and property crime in the liberal city are 1 in 95 and 1 in 16‚ respectively.";After more than a year of facing this crisis together‚ Denver finally has a sustainable plan for treating our newcomers with dignity while avoiding the worst cuts to city services‚"; Johnson said in a statement Wednesday. ";So many times we were told that we couldnt be compassionate while still being fiscally responsible. Today is proof that our hardest challenges are still solvable‚ and that together we are the ones who will solve them.";Extra to defunding the police‚ Johnson';s ";sustainable plan"; involves reducing hiring for various other municipal positions‚ purchasing fewer supplies‚ and deferring numerous technology and capital projects.KDVR-TV reported that among the departments that will also see cuts are the Sheriff';s Department‚ by 2.2%; the Executive Director of Safety‚ by 2.4%; the Public Library‚ by 1.5%; the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure‚ by 3.8%; and Denver Economic Development‚ by 2.1%. The fire department will also suffer a $2.5 million reduction.These cuts will apparently free up $45.9 million to alternatively blow on illegal aliens.From the $89.9 million budgeted for ";newcomers"; this year‚ $3 million will reportedly go toward program administration; $51.7 million will go toward housing; $9.7 million will go toward workforce training‚ case management‚ and other support services; $6 million will go toward transportation; $9.5 million will go toward one-time capital costs; and another $10 million will be sunk into contingency costs.Johnston intimated during a press conference Wednesday that this is more or less an investment in a new workforce.In his remarks‚ Johnston conflated legal and illegal immigration‚ likening those now descending on his city to the Vietnamese‚ Irish‚ Chinese‚ and other waves of migrants who have in bygone decades legally settled in the United States. He further suggested that ";Denver';s dream for our city and the American dream of our newcomers are aligned‚"; suggesting the city will ultimately be able to take advantage of this unlawfully imported workforce.Like Blaze News?

Actor Alan Ritchson called President Donald Trump a ";rapist"; and attacked the Catholic church while also making comments about the modeling industry.The self-professed Christian shares video online for what he calls InstaChurch‚ a series in which the ";Reacher"; actor explores scripture and how it relates to his life.";Im a Christian quite simply because of what Jesus calls us to do. Love other people until death. It doesnt mean were all to be hung on a cross‚ but how can I suffer for you? That is a beautiful thing‚"; Ritchson said.Those comments did not come without deep criticism of Christians and the Catholic church. ";Christians today have become the most vitriolic tribe‚"; Ritchson claimed. ";It is so antithetical to what Jesus was calling us to be and to do.";The 41-year-old also seemingly called out all levels of the Catholic church other than the papacy. ";Its worth saying that the atrocities that are happening in the church that are being actively covered up‚ even to this day with people not being held accountable‚ is repulsive‚"; he told the Hollywood Reporter. ";I cant for one second support the Catholic Church while there are still cardinals‚ bishops‚ and priests being passed around with known pedophilic tendencies.";Despite his mother being Catholic‚ the outlet reported that Ritchson rejected any association with the church. He also took shots at Christians who have supported President Trump. Ritchson was described as being upset with said Christians over their alignment with the former president despite him being a ";rapist.";";Trump is a rapist and a con man‚ and yet the entire Christian church seems to treat him like hes their poster child and its unreal. I dont understand it.";Ritchson has embedded himself in activism in the past and has had some of that commentary resurface. This included a 2020 photo of the actor wearing a shirt that said ";arrest the cops that killed Breonna Taylor."; This was in reference to a woman who was shot by police during the execution of a warrant for a drug case.";That was a tragic case‚"; Ritchson said. ";Cops get away with murder all the time‚ and the fact that we cant really hold them accountable for their improprieties is disturbing to me.";Ritchson also called for complete ";reform"; and claimed it takes more time to get an education as a ";hairstylist than as a cop.";Ritchson also made claims about the modeling agency‚ which he was once a part of. He called the industry ";legalized sex trafficking‚"; adding that it is ";not regulated"; while likening being hired for a job to being ";trafficked"; to a photographer.";The number of times and situations where I was put in horrific environments where sexual abuse was the goal and the paycheck that you were desperate for in order to survive was the carrot‚ I cant count on two hands. It was quite often.";Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors‚ sign up for our newsletters‚ and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!
