An illegal alien from El Salvador has been arrested on charges of raping and murdering a Maryland mother of five.

Victor Antonio Martinez-Hernandez, 23, crossed the U.S. southern border illegally in February 2023, according to Harford County Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler. Six months later, in August 2023, Hernandez is suspected of attacking, raping, and killing Rachel Morin while she exercised on the MA & PA Heritage Trail in Bel Air, Maryland, about 30 miles northeast of Baltimore.

“We are 1,800 miles away from the southern border and the American citizens are not safe because of failed immigration policies,” Gahler said during a press conference Saturday, directing this remark specifically to “1600 Pennsylvania Ave and to every member of both chambers of Congress.”

“This is the second time, in just two years, that an innocent Harford County woman has lost her life to a criminal in our country illegally,” the sheriff said.

The convergence of artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance cloud computing is dramatically reshaping the landscape of scientific research and discovery. Scientific breakthroughs that once took years to achieve are emerging in weeks, presenting new and powerful solutions to address complex global challenges.

However, the accelerating rate of innovation also raises critical strategic questions for government and public policy institutions and whether they are prepared for the surge, suggests a new report.

AI’s emerging impact in the laboratory has made one thing clear: The scientific and research community is at the cusp of a new era when AI-propelled science will move at unprecedented speed and likely reshape priorities for government agencies responsible for agriculture, environmental protection, health, national security and other domains.

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Almost all U.S. hospitals were hurt financially by the cyberattack on United Health Group’s Change Healthcare unit earlier this year, according to a survey from the American Hospital Association (AHA).

The AHA said that 94% of hospitals reported damage to cash flow and more than half reported significant or serious financial damage due to Change’s inability to process claims.

“While this event had disparate impacts on providers, all communities felt the effects in some way,” the AHA wrote in a letter to leadership of the U.S. Senate Finance and House Energy and Commerce committees.

The association, which represents almost 5,000 hospitals and healthcare systems in the United States, sent the letter on Monday ahead of Wednesday’s Congressional hearings on cybersecurity vulnerabilities in the healthcare sector.

HELSINKI (AP) — The World War II mystery of what happened to a Finnish passenger plane after it was shot down over the Baltic Sea by Soviet bombers appears to finally be solved more than eight decades later.

The plane was carrying American and French diplomatic couriers in June 1940 when it was downed just days before Moscow annexed the Baltic states. All nine people on board the plane were killed, including the two-member Finnish crew and the seven passengers — an American diplomat, two French, two Germans, a Swede and a dual Estonian-Finnish national.

A diving and salvage team in Estonia said this week that it had located well-preserved parts and debris from the Junkers Ju 52 plane operated by Finnish airline Aero, which is now Finnair. It was found off the tiny island of Keri near Estonia’s capital, Tallinn, at a depth of around 70 meters (230 feet).

A thousand days have passed since girls in Afghanistan were banned from attending secondary schools, according to the U.N. children’s agency, which said Thursday that “no country can move forward when half its population is left behind.”

UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell in a statement urged Taliban authorities to allow all children to resume learning immediately, and called on the international community to support Afghan girls, who she said need it more than ever. The agency estimates that more than 1 million girls are affected.

The U.N. has warned that the ban on girls’ education remains the Taliban’s biggest obstacle to gaining recognition as the legitimate rulers of Afghanistan.

For those not yet in the know, here’s a quick recap: Furlow-Smiles held prominent DEI roles at Nike and Facebook (now Meta) and was allegedly in the running for a role at Pixar before news broke that she’d been accused of stealing $5 million to fund a high-priced luxury lifestyle. In May, a judge sentenced her to five years in prison and ordered her to return the stolen funds.

At first glance, this seems like any other white-collar scheme. But in a deeply riveting and colorfully written feature, my colleague Lila MacLellan uncovers the humanity behind the crime and explores what led someone who, by many accounts, seemed to live comfortably—and made her name in a field that’s perceived as more values-driven and moralistic than others—to steal millions of dollars earmarked for underrepresented people.

It appears that global warming experts have some major explaining to do.

The state of Montana is expected to get 12 inches of snow next week as a cold front is expected to hit the state.

The National Weather Service in Montana has warned residents in higher elevations near the Continental Divide are expecting snowfall on Monday that will last until Thursday.

The NWS warned, “Travel could be difficult, especially on backcountry roads. Those in the backcountry should ensure they have appropriate knowledge and gear and may want to consider alternate plans.”

UFO mystery may be result of advanced ‘stealth civilization’ living on Earth among us, say Harvard scientists – as they reveal where their secret bases could be located

But two Harvard scientists suspect the beings may have been here all along.

In a new research paper, they estimate there is a one in 10 chance the true solution to the UFO mystery could be ‘cryptoterrestrial’ — meaning they belong to an advanced species hiding on Earth.

‘While this notion may sound unlikely on first hearing, many observers are persuaded that it is at least conceivable,’ the team wrote in their new study, ‘not least because whole swathes of our planet remain virtually unexplored and uncharted.’

With 80 percent of our oceans unmapped, and still revealing ancient mysteries like Yonaguni Jima, the ‘Japanese Atlantis,’ not to mention unexplored caves and the dark side of the moon, they argue there’s plenty of space for a ‘stealth’ civilization.

The researchers described, as one example of a potentially hiding advanced species, a massive submerged stone structure discovered by a diver off the coast of Yonaguni Jima in Japan that some marine geologists argue are might be the remnants of a ‘Japanese Atlantis’

‘If another intelligent species had inhabited Earth (or Mars) long before Homo sapiens, it is possible that we could have no idea,’ the trio notes in their article, which is set to appear in the journal Philosophy and Cosmology this June.

Ukraine is preparing to fight Putin – with a robot army.

The beleaguered country is crowdfunding for bots to fight the Russians, who invaded in February 2022.

The first fundraiser towards terrestrial robotic platforms was announced at the recent UNITED24 anniversary summit by the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

As well as robots to carry supplies and wounded soldiers, there will also be squadrons of kamikaze bots sent to take out enemy troops and vehicles.

UNITED24, Ukraine’s official fundraising platform, says: “Squads of robots will save the lives of our military and civilians. They will become logistics devices, tow trucks, minelayers and deminers, as well as self-destructive robots. They will fight alongside people and for people.

“The first robots are already proving their effectiveness on the battlefield, but there are many more required.”
