We take another look at Enoch "Nucky" Johnson, the legendary political boss who ruled Atlantic City during its wild Prohibition era. From his early days in Galloway Township to becoming the "Czar of the Ritz," Nucky turned Atlantic City into "The World's Playground" by embracing vice—liquor, gambling, and more—in defiance of Prohibition laws.Subscribe to our YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/@bangdangnetworkBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/outlaws-gunslingers--4737234/support.

Sorin Grindeanu, Ilie Bolojan, Dominic Fritz și Kelemen Hunor s-au întâlnit luni / Scenariile și calendarul discutat (HotNews)Cei patru lideri de la PSD, PNL, USR și UDMR s-au întâlnit de la ora 16:00, iar în jurul orei 18:00 discuția s-a încheiat, conform surselor HotNews. Întâlnirea a avut loc la biroul lui Ilie Bolojan de la Senat, iar presa nu a fost informată în avans.În timpul discuției, Sorin Grindeanu, Ilie Bolojan, Dominic Fritz și Kelemen Hunor au stabilit să formeze 16 grupuri de lucru – câte unul aferent pentru fiecare minister. PSD are trei scenarii de lucru în acest moment privind viitorul guvern: să accepte un premier politic care să conducă coaliția până la viitoarele alegeri, să forțeze instalarea unui premier desemnat prin rotativă guvernamentală sau să aleagă să rămână în opoziție.Întrebat luni dacă PSD susține varianta unei rotative sau dacă partidul l-ar accepta drept variantă de premier pe Ilie Bolojan, Sorin Grindeanu a spus că „toate variantele sunt pe masă”. Ilie Bolojan a dat de înțeles, tot luni, după o ședință a liderilor PNL, că nu este de acord cu varianta rotativei guvernamentale.Liderii PSD, PNL, USR și UDMR și-ar dori ca săptămâna viitoare să aibă loc desemnarea premierului de către președintele Nicușor Dan, astfel încât pe 16-17 iunie să aibă locul votul în Parlament privind învestirea noului Guvern, conform surselor HotNews.Primele tăieri gândite la nivelul Guvernului: voucherele de vacanță, indemnizația de hrană și sporul de antenă la bugetari. Cât s-ar economisi (Libertatea)Viitorul guvern al României intenționează să taie inițial sporul de antenă primit de bugetari, dar și voucherele de vacanță și indemnizația de hrană, arată sursele Libertatea.Tăierile amintite vor duce la economii totale de 7,5 miliarde de lei, conform calculelor Libertatea. Suma este însă pe un an întreg, dar noi suntem deja la jumătatea anului, astfel că în mod realist se vor strânge din acestea maximum 4,2 miliarde de lei.Potrivit calculelor înaintate până în acest moment, Guvernul României trebuie să economisească aproximativ 30 de miliarde de lei pentru a reduce deficitul, preconizat până la finalul anului 2025, de la 9,3% din Produsul Intern Brut (PIB) la 7,5%.Este nevoie ca statul să taie masiv din investițiile inutile pentru a realiza deficitul scontat. Economiștii consultați de Libertatea au indicat programul Anghel Saligny, cel prin care primarii fac investiții de drumuri și gaze.În fine, experții spun că mai trebuie tăiate și alte programe: Rabla, Start-Up Nation, Femeia Antreprenor, Subvențiile pentru partide, Sumele forfetare acordate în Parlament, Construcția de stadioane prin Compania Națională de Investiții.Scurta lună de miere, săbiile din aceeași teacă și rana închisă. Concluziile primelor sondaje după alegeri (SpotMedia)În analiza editorialistei SpotMedia sunt sondajele NSCOP și AVANGARDE au fost realizate telefonic la final de mai, 26 -30 mai, respectiv 23- 28 mai.Ce ar fi de remarcat?1.Încrederea de care beneficiază președintele Nicușor Dan nu este nici pe departe atât de mare după cum era vehiculat. Este o cotă de încredere sub 50 % în ambele sondaje.Încrederea sub 50% arată că luna de miere a președintelui ar putea fi mai scurtă decât a altor președinți care au avut scoruri de încredere postelectorale mai mari- Iohannis 60%, Băsescu 63%.Dl Dan trebuie să înceapă să livreze rapid, iar în mare măsură campania electorală, implicit așteptările, nu a fost despre atribuțiile președintelui, ci ale premierului.2.Ilie Bolojan este cu doar câteva procente în urma lui Nicușor Dan, dar cu o notorietate mai mică.3.Analiza detaliată a sondajului INSCOP, realizată de Remus Ștefureac, arată România rămâne fracturată. Încrederea noului președinte în zona AUR este de numai 6%. Principala misiunea a președintelui ar trebui să fie să acceseze zona aceasta ostilă, să o capteze, să îi câștige încrederea.4.George Simion este în scădere. Și cel mai probabil ea va continua.5.Sondajul INSCOP l-a măsurat pe locul al patrulea în clasamentul încrederii, cu 26%, pe liderul UDMR Kelemen Hunor. El capitalizează acum imaginea muncită ani de zile de lider serios, echilibrat, elegant.  În acest moment, dl Kelemen Hunor nu mai este doar liderul maghiarilor, ci unul dintre liderii politici ai României, a schimbat liga.Încrederea atât de mare pentru liderul UDMR, mult dincolo de bazinul electoral tradițional maghiar, marchează un moment istoric. Între atâtea răni care sfâșie societatea, iată că una se închide, ceea ce este esențial în fața filonului naționalist care, cel puțin o vreme, nu se va diminuaMoștenirea lui Nicușor Dan la Primăria Capitalei (Snoop)În patru ani și șapte luni, Nicușor Dan nu a reușit să livreze rezultate pe măsura așteptărilor bucureștenilor și a problemelor cronice ale orașului. Asta însă într-un context dificil: preluarea mandatului cu datorii de 3 miliarde lei la Primăria Capitalei și un Guvern care a redus în mod constant bugetul PMB în favoarea județului Ilfov și a primăriilor de sector. Plusuri: investiții în termoficare, desființarea majorității companiilor municipale, limitare a dezvoltării urbanistice haotice, finalizarea stației de epurare de la Glina.Minusuri: traficul rămâne aglomerat, poluarea ridicată, lipsa consolidării clădirilor cu risc seismic, problemele cu apa caldă și căldura persistă. Dar aceste disfuncționalități nu pot fi corectate în doar patru ani, ci cer decenii de investiții și politici susținute, atarge atenția jurnalista Catiușa Ivanov în analiza sa de pe Snoop.ro.Protest anunțat marți în Piața Victoriei, după crima din Cosmopolis. Printre revendicări, recunoașterea femicidului în legislație (Buletin de București)Centrul FILIA, Centrul pentru Resurse Juridice și Feminism România organizează marți, 3 iunie, un protest în Piața Victoriei, sub mesajul „Niciuna înfrântă. Niciuna uitată. Niciuna mai puțin.” Manifestația vine în contextul crimei din 31 mai, când o femeie însărcinată a fost împușcată mortal, în timp ce se afla cu fiica ei de trei ani într-un complex rezidențial din județul Ilfov.Cazul Teodorei Marcu este al 25-lea femicid înregistrat în România în ultimele cinci luni, potrivit organizatorilor, care atrag atenția asupra lipsei unor măsuri eficiente de prevenție și protecție a victimelor violenței de gen.Autorul faptei, un bărbat de 49 de ani, fusese denunțat de victimă pentru ani de abuzuri sexuale, fizice și psihice. Abuzul a început când aceasta avea doar 14 ani.Pe larg, pe pagina Buletin de București.

In April  Time magazine published a story entitled The Return of The Dire Wolf. Having roamed America's continent for thousands of years, the dire wolf had gone extinct around 10,000 years ago. Until, that is, a company called Colossal Biosciences claims that it has managed to bring the species back to life in the form of two wolf pups: Romulus and Remus. But despite the scientific wonders of gene editing, can we be sure that these pups are genetically identical to the dire wolfs of the past? Are genetics all that matters in the identity of a species? And even if it is practically possible to bring back to life species that have gone extinct - is it a good idea? Are we are morally obliged to bring lost species back to life if we can, especially if humans were responsible in their extinction? Or would such a practices risk "Jurasic Park"-like scenarios and our limited resources for environmental conservation are best channelled in preserving existing species?Jay Odenbaugh is the James F. Miller Professor of Humanities at Lewis & Clark College in Portland, USA.  His research is in the philosophy of science, especially ecology and conservation biology, and environmental philosophy. He is the author of the book Ecological Models (Cambridge University Press)  and has written about the ethics and aesthetics of species conservation and de-extinction. If you enjoyed the episode, please leave us a rating and a review on Apple Podcasts.This podcast is created in partnership with The Philosopher, the UK's longest running public philosophy journalm founded in 1923.

MG - invitat Remus Ștefureac (INSCOP Research)

In this howlingly strange mini, we sink our teeth into the buzz around Colossal Biosciences' claim that they've resurrected the dire wolf—yes, the same fang-faced legends from Game of Thrones. But are these snow-white pups really ancient predators reborn, or just very expensive cosplay wolves? We sniff out the science behind gene editing, prehistoric DNA, and some eyebrow-raising semantics as scientists clash over whether Romulus, Remus, and Khaleesi are breakthroughs in de-extinction—or just glorified gray wolves with a dramatic backstory. Spoiler alert: evolution is messier than your average family tree.As always... like, share and follow to show us you love us Source: https://www.livescience.com/animals/extinct-species/colossals-de-extincted-dire-wolf-isnt-a-dire-wolf-and-it-has-not-been-de-extincted-experts-say

The world of science was rocked early last month when U.S. company Colossal Biosciences announced that it had resurrected the dire wolf—a species that went extinct more than 10,000 years ago. Three pups, named Remus, Romulus, and Khaleesi are now living on a 2,000-acre enclosure in a secret location. Videos of the wolf pups howling went viral across the internet, as did photographs of their snowy white fur. How did Colossal achieve this? Through genetic editing. After first extracting DNA from an ancient dire wolf skull and tooth and studying its genome, the company claims it then took the genome of a grey wolf, the closest living ancestor of the dire wolf, and made precise edits at 20 locations across 14 genes. Most of these edits were cosmetic changes—to do with fur colour and size. The modified genome was then implanted in embryos, and surrogate dog mothers gave birth to the wolf pups. While the science sounds immensely exciting, several experts have contested the claim that these pups are dire wolves. Can a few edits in a genome truly recreate a lost species? Can these wolves behave just as the real dire wolves did, given that the ecology and environment that the dire wolves existed in no longer exist? The company claims that it wants to secure the health and biodiversity of our planet's future—its next project is to ‘de-extinct' the woolly mammoth. Is this the right way to go about conservation, and can it even work?

Non, ce n'est pas un scénario de science-fiction. Et pourtant, en 2025, une start-up américaine de génie génétique, Colossal Biosciences, affirme avoir réussi l'impensable : ressusciter une créature disparue depuis des millénaires, le loup terrible ou Canis dirus. Ce prédateur emblématique de l'Amérique du Nord, plus massif que le loup gris et rendu célèbre par la série Game of Thrones, a disparu il y a plus de 10.000 ans. Mais trois petits louveteaux blancs, prénommés Remus, Romulus et Khaleesi, viennent tout juste de voir le jour en laboratoire. Alors… miracle ou manipulation ?Tout commence par une dent vieille de 13.000 ans et un fragment de crâne datant de 72.000 ans. Grâce à ces fossiles, les scientifiques ont pu extraire de l'ADN ancien, un exploit en soi. En comparant ce patrimoine génétique à celui du loup gris actuel, les chercheurs ont identifié les différences clés qui caractérisaient le loup terrible. Résultat : 20 modifications génétiques ont été apportées dans 14 gènes du loup gris. Ensuite, les cellules modifiées ont été clonées, puis implantées dans des ovules de chiens domestiques. Et ça a marché.Mais attention, ces animaux ne sont pas des copies exactes du Canis dirus. Comme le souligne la paléontologue Julie Meachen, ce sont des créatures nouvelles, génétiquement proches, mais pas identiques. L'objectif de Colossal n'est pas de recréer des espèces à 100 %, mais de produire des individus « fonctionnels », c'est-à-dire ressemblants, capables d'évoluer dans un environnement donné.Pourquoi faire cela ? Selon Colossal, il s'agit de repousser les limites de la biologie pour mieux préserver la biodiversité. En ressuscitant des espèces éteintes, ils espèrent aussi sauver celles qui sont en voie de disparition. Par exemple, ils ont déjà cloné quatre loups rouges, une espèce menacée. Et ils ambitionnent désormais de ramener à la vie le mammouth laineux d'ici 2028, ainsi que le dodo ou le tigre de Tasmanie.Mais ce projet fascine autant qu'il inquiète. Quel rôle joueraient ces nouveaux animaux dans nos écosystèmes ? Seront-ils vraiment utiles ? Ou risquent-ils de perturber des équilibres fragiles ? Le professeur Christopher Preston, spécialiste de philosophie environnementale, met en garde : « Il est difficile d'imaginer que des loups géants soient relâchés un jour dans la nature. »Finalement, la science montre ici qu'elle en est capable. Mais la grande question demeure : faut-il vraiment ressusciter le passé ? Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

P&C drink and review a blonde ale from the Brookeville Beer Farm, then discuss the process of de-extinction -- bringing animals back from the graves of history. Using DNA from dire wolf fossils from 13,000 and 72,000 years ago, Colossal Biosciences claims to have brought the dire wolf back from extinction. What they really did was edit the genes of a gray wolf to look a little more like a dire wolf. The pups -- Romulus, Remus, and Khaleesi -- are white and a little large, but they're not dire wolves. They're just gray wolves that have had some work done. The project raises larger questions. Is de-extinction a good idea? Should we bring back extinct species? The boys discuss.

El a depus sesizări la mai multe instituții ale statului, la instituții europene și la marile platforme sociale.Faptul că s-a întâmplat ceva neobișnuit pe contul său de Instagram se poate vedea și din raportul socialblade.com, o platformă care analizează conturile de social media.Într-o singură zi, pe 12 aprilie, numărul de urmăritori ai lui Nicușor Dan pe Instagram a crescut cu peste 10.000. Peste încă două zile, pe 14 aprilie, s-au adăugat alți peste 53.000, iar de atunci numărul lor crește zilnic cu peste 10.000.Creșterea organică a numărului de urmăritori era, până atunci, de câteva sute zilnic.Specialiștii consultați de Europa Liberă spun că e aproape imposibil de aflat cine a plătit respectivii boți. Pentru că efectul utilizării lor poate fi și de creștere a vizibilității, dar poate îi poate aduce și acuzații grave candidatului, așa cum s-a întâmplat la alegerile anulate din noiembrie 2024.„Este un atac menit să îl discrediteze pe candidat, operat de echipa neasumată a unui oponent, în ideea: «Iată, am găsit boți și la independent!». Sau, este un «cadou» neinspirat de la un fan/ susținător persoană fizică sau juridică dornică să contribuie la succesul candidatului, fără acordul explicit al echipei acestuia.Iar ultima variantă ar fi aceea a unei mișcari de apărare, executată strategic, ca un răspuns preventiv la eventuale întrebări legate de această practică operată, poate, de cineva care are legătură cu candidatul”, rezumă situația Dragoș Stanca, antreprenor social media și expert social media.Ghid de supraviețuire în războiul sondajelor electorale. Ștefureac: „80% din ce s-a publicat până acum sunt advertoriale electorale” (Adevărul)Rezultatele foarte diferite ale sondajelor electorale, publicate cu două săptămâni înainte de alegerile prezidențiale, îi bulversează pe alegătorii români. Trei specialiști de top au realizat pentru „Adevărul” un ghid de utilizare a sondajelor electorale, în condițiile în care ne aflăm în plină campanie electorală: politologul Remus Ștefureac, director al INSCOP Research, sociologul Vladimir Ionaș și profesorul Cristian Pîrvulescu.Importante sunt istoricul firmei, cine lucrează la institutul respectiv, dar și cine a comandat sondajul. Directorul INSCOP Research este foarte critic vis-a-vis de sondajele publicate până acum: „80% din ce s-a publicat până acum sunt advertoriale electorale”.Profesorul și politologul Cristian Pîrvulescu susține că primul lucru la care trebuie să ne uităm este credibilitatea institutului, care depinde în foarte mare măsură de acuratețea sondajelor care au fost făcute în trecut. În plus, atrage atenția Pârvulescu, „sondajul este o radiografie de moment, nu o predicție”.„Să nu considere că ceea ce apare în spațiu public reprezintă și modul în care vor arăta rezultatele”, spune la rândul său sociologul Vladimir Ionaș.Mitul celor care „vor salva alegerile”: cât reprezintă de fapt nehotărâții în sondajele de la prezidențiale. „Cam atâta vor decide să voteze” (HotNews)Cu două săptămâni înaintea primului tur se vehiculează că, pentru prima oară, 45% dintre români nu știu cu cine să voteze. Suporterii fiecărui candidat se așteaptă ca acești indeciși să încline balanța. Dar cifrele sondajelor, analizate de specialiști, proiectează ce e cel mai probabil să se întâmple cu cei care se declară nehotărâți.În ultimul sondaj AtlasIntel pentru HotNews.ro, cei care au răspuns că „nu știu” cu cine vor vota reprezentau doar 1%. În precedentul sondaj din luna martie, acest procent era de 2,1%. Directorul INSCOP susține că în analizele lor sociologice există un procent al nehotărâților care a variat în ultimele luni. „În ultimele 2 luni, ponderea nehotărâților în măsurătorile noastre nu a depășit 15%. Variază între 10 și 15%. Dintre aceștia, de regulă cam o treime decid să voteze. Restul, de regulă, nu votează”, a declarat pentru cititorii HotNews directorul INSCOP, Remus Ștefureac. Potrivit acestuia, ponderea nehotărâților poate crește doar dacă se întâmplă ceva ieșit din comun, cum ar fi o catastrofă sau un eveniment cu impact emoțional.Sociologul Barbu Mateescu a nuanțat situația.„Peste 20% ar fi enorm, sub 5% ar fi puțin. Mulți nehotărâți de fapt ascund faptul că nu au de gând să vină la vot”, a explicat Mateescu pentru cititorii HotNews.  Și Mateescu crede că „cei 45%” sunt în realitate un mit și că, în realitate, schimbările de ultim moment în opțiunile de vot nu se măsoară niciodată în doze atât de mari.Guvernul caută noi șefi pentru AMEPIP, după ce Economedia a dezvăluit probleme și cu a doua procedură de selecție. Secretariatul General al Guvernului a publicat miercuri seară un anunț privind reluarea procesului de selecție a candidaților pentru funcțiile de președinte și vicepreședinți la Agenția pentru Monitorizarea și Evaluarea Performanțelor Întreprinderilor Publice.Prima procedură de selecție pentru conducerea AMEPIP s-a finalizat în decembrie 2023, dar în iulie 2024 cei trei și-au dat demisia după ce Economedia a dezvăluit că ei au fost aleși prin conflict de interese sau nu aveau experiența necesară.Dacă România ratează alegerea conducerii AMEPIP, țara noastră ar putea pierde 400 milioane de euro din Planul Național de Redresare și Reziliență (PNRR).

Alegerile prezidențiale din România amenință să zguduie UE și NATO, dacă Bucureștiul se va deplasa de pe calea pro-europeană. Iată ce scrie ediția europeană Politico, într-o analiză consacrată scrutinului din țara noastră. Articolul îi descrie pe principalii candidați și evaluează șansele fiecăruia în diferite scenarii pentru turul doi. Acum, că ultranaționalistul Călin Georgescu, susținut de Moscova, a fost descalificat din alegerile reînnoite, George Simion, liderul Alianței pentru Uniunea Românilor (AUR), de extremă dreaptă, a urcat în frunte.Un auto-proclamat fan al premierului italian Giorgia Meloni, Simion s-a prezentat ca un agent al schimbării. Partidul său a trecut de la o mișcare anti-vaccinare la o forță politică majoră, pe o platformă trumpistă. El a promis că se va situa pe poziții contrare față de Bruxelles și va suspenda ajutorul militar pentru Ucraina.Despre Nicușor Dan, Politico scrie că este un matematician care a fondat partidul Uniunea Salvați România (USR), dar acum candidează ca independent.În comparație cu Simion, baza sa electorală este cu mult diferită: are un sprijin puternic la București, unde este primar, și în alte zone urbane mari, dar mai puțin în orașele mai mici și mediile rurale.Crin Antonescu, soțul fostului comisar european al României, Adina Vălean, candidează cu sprijinul partidelor de guvernare, PSD, PNL și UDMR.Sprijinul instituțional este un avantaj clar pentru Antonescu. Dar el este dezavantajat la votul diasporei: între 5% și 7% din totalul voturilor.Fost premier și fost președinte al PSD, Victor Ponta a fost nevoit să demisioneze în urma unui incendiu mortal dintr-un club în 2015, pe care protestatarii l-au pus pe seama corupției.El merge pe o platformă suveranistă, promițând că va opri exporturile de cereale ucrainene prin porturile românești (o rută cheie pentru țara devastată de război). Dar Ponta s-a împușcat în picior recunoscând că a permis ca patru sate românești de pe fluviul Dunărea să fie inundate pentru a salva capitala sârbă, Belgrad, în 2014.La fel ca Simion, el încearcă să strângă sprijinul foștilor alegători ai lui Georgescu.Politico mai amintește că liderii USR și-au manifestat sprijinul pentru Nicușor Dan în locul propriei candidate, Elena Lasconi, în încercarea de a-l împiedica pe Ponta să prindă locul doi. O confruntare între Simion și Ponta ar fi un scenariu „toxic”, au avertizat aceștia.Deși amândoi prezintă o imagine naționalistă și anti-UE, Ponta ar fi probabil „perceput, în comparație cu Simion, ca un candidat mai pro-european”, spune directorul INSCOP, Remus Ștefureac, pentru Politico.Simion s-a confruntat cu acuzații (pe care le-a negat în mod repetat) de întâlnire cu spioni ruși. Are interdicție să intre în Moldova și Ucraina. Cu toate acestea, în perioada premergătoare alegerilor, el a etichetat Rusia lui Putin drept o mare amenințare; în schimb s-a apropiat de mișcarea MAGA a lui Trump.Reputația sa de candidat pro-rus l-ar putea costa, în cele din urmă, a spus Ștefureac. Potrivit unui sondaj recent, aproape 90% dintre români sunt în favoarea aderării la UE și NATO.România este una dintre cele mai mari țări ale UE, după populație, o națiune cheie pe flancul estic al Europei și NATO și o putere militară serioasă.O victorie a unui politician sceptic atât cu UE, cât și cu NATO ar da o lovitură planurilor blocului de a sprijini Ucraina în lupta sa împotriva Rusiei, mai scrie Politico. Articolul integral din Politico aici.

The US company Colossal claim to have brought back the dire wolf from extinction after 12,000 years through genetic engineering. The three pups, called Romulus, Remus and Khaleesi, are now living in an undisclosed nature preserve, unaware that their existence has made headlines around the world. But Colossal aren't finished yet, they want to continue to “de-extinct” other animals, such as the woolly mammoth. BBC Science Correspondent Victoria Gill explains how the experiment was done. How realistic is “de-extinction”? And are these actually dire wolves?Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 0330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: William Lee Adams Producers: Josh Jenkins and Emilia Jansson Editor: Emily Horler

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesWarner Bros. now has the biggest movie opening of the year so far, as A Minecraft Movie raked in more than $300 million dollars globally in its opening weekend. If you're surprised, don't be, as video game movie adaptations seem to be the hot ticket. Minecraft's opening marks the largest ever for actor Jason Momoa and comes in second for Jack Black. Tom Cruise's seemingly last outing as Ethan Hunt was finally shown in a full trailer for Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, hitting theaters on May 26. The high-octane trailer looks back at previous Mission: Impossible entries and hints that all that has happened to the main character has been on purpose. Lightcycles meet the real world in the trailer for Tron: Ares, Disney's newest entry to the Tron universe. The trailer, featuring music for the film by Nine Inch Nails, shows us what it will look like when the digital Tron world infiltrates the real world. The film stars Jared Leto and the cast includes Greta Lee, Gillian Anderson, Jeff Bridges, Evan Peters, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Cameron Monaghan. The film marks a nearly 15-year gap since the last Tron entry.Colossal Biosciences has gene-edited a modern wolf species to re-create a new version of the extinct species used in fantasy lore such as Game of thrones, Dire Wolves. They are returning to the world after being extinct for more than 12,000 years. The first two new dire wolves, Romulus and Remus, were born in October. Colossal has a mission of de-extinction and claims this is proof it can be done.After the debut of a sizzle reel for upcoming shows this year on Max that featured some very brief shots of Peacemaker season 2, Jame Gunn confirmed that the series will begin streaming on August 21.Tangled, Disney's live-action reimagining of its 2010 animated film, has been put on pause, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The project had been in active development, with The Greatest Showman helmer Michael Gracey on board to direct and a script by Jennifer Kaytin Robinson. As of now, the future of the film remains uncertain.HBO has officially renewed The Last of Us for a third season ahead of its second season premiere this weekend.

If you want an ad-free experience, you can subscribe below underneath the show description.Colossal Biosciences has announced the successful resurrection of a set of Dire Wolves that have officially been extinct for 10-13,000 years. Time Magazine reported how the company can now “summon back species from the dead,” which “could prevent existing but endangered animals from slipping into extinction themselves.” Colossal Biosciences plans to birth a Mammoth by late 2028, having already in March announced it had copied mammoth DNA to create a woolly mouse,” which is admittedly a “chimeric critter.” In other words, as with the dire wolves, it's a mix of various pieces merged into one, i.e., it's a manmade creation. As Time reports, the company “rewrote the genetic code of the common gray wolf to match it [dire wolf], and, using domestic dogs as surrogate mothers,” resurrected the dead. Since April is the anniversary of the founding of the city of Rome in roughly 753 BCE it's all the more interesting that the company name their wolves after Romulus and Remus. One question is left unaddressed among the spectacle, magic, science, and obvious questions of morality or playing god: how do we define extinction or endangered. It's simple; the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), which once defined the former term as an animal not spotted in 50 years, now says an animal is extinct if there is “no reasonable doubt that the last individual member has died.” Better yet, these observations are often made not by the IUCN, but by citizens, as is common for bird watchers. The conservation status of each animal, plant and fungi species is compiled by the IUCN in what is called the "Red List,” which has over 41,000 species. And it is this arbitrary list which gives moral licensing and justification to those like Colossal Bioscences.  -FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKMAIN WEBSITECashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

In a stunning scientific breakthrough, biotech company Colossal Biosciences has successfully brought the extinct dire wolf back to life, using advanced gene-editing techniques to “turn on” ancient DNA within modern gray wolves. Dubbed Romulus, Remus, and Khaleesi, the recreated pups are genetically identical to their Ice Age ancestors and mark the first of their kind seen in 13,000 years. This Jurassic Park-like moment has sparked awe—and concern—about the future of de-extinction, as the company sets its sights next on resurrecting the woolly mammoth by 2028.

US and Israel discuss Gaza, hostages at White House Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced fresh hostage release negotiations for besieged Gaza in a White House meeting with US President Donald Trump. Trump, on the other hand, reiterated his controversial idea of ethnic cleansing and US takeover of Palestinian territory during the same meeting. While acknowledging ongoing efforts, Trump called securing all hostages ""a long process"" and suggested the Gaza war's end wasn't far off. He also predicted Israel's war would end “not in the too-distant future.” Separately, hundreds of pro-Palestinian demonstrators in New York City halted Grand Central Terminal, demanding an end to the ""genocide"" and US support for Israel. Trump threatens 50 percent tariff hike on Chinese imports President Trump has threatened a staggering 50 percent hike in tariffs on Chinese imports unless Beijing backs off its retaliatory plans, raising total US duties to a sky-high 104 percent. The move builds on previous levies tied to fentanyl trafficking and alleged trade abuses. Trump declared talks with China are off the table while negotiations with other nations will begin immediately. The US President's latest move is seen as throwing gasoline on the fire. Beijing is set to retaliate with matching tariffs and export controls on rare earths. Global markets have plunged since Trump announced his tariff policy. Report accuses 10 Brits of war crimes in Gaza A legal bombshell drops in London. About 240-page war crimes dossier has been submitted to London's Metropolitan Police, accusing 10 British nationals of involvement in atrocities in Gaza. Spearheaded by famed barrister Michael Mansfield KC, the report cites crimes against humanity and demands urgent prosecutions. Filed by UK and Palestinian legal groups, the report arrives amid Israel's intense bombardment and violence in Gaza. Pro-Israel groups, including UK Lawyers for Israel, dismiss it as a “publicity stunt,” while supporters call it a bold bid for global justice. US-Iran diplomatic discussions set to take place in Oman Diplomatic channels have opened as Iran announces indirect high-level talks with the US in Oman this Saturday. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirmed the meeting, calling it a "test" for America. While US President Donald Trump suggested direct negotiations over Tehran's nuclear programme, Araghchi dismissed the notion, stating that the ball is in America's court. Trump, continuing his threats of military action, emphasised that the talks are in Iran's best interests but warned of ""great danger"" if an agreement fails. Both sides are now preparing for pivotal discussions. Three dire wolf pups bring back an ancient predator to the wild In an almost secluded 8-kilometre-square preserve, three dire wolf pups — Romulus, Remus and Khaleesi — roam once more, marking the revival of an ancient predator. After 13,000 years, the biotech firm Colossal Biosciences has successfully resurrected these Ice Age creatures, blending science with fantasy. This is the first successful de-extinction. Using ancient DNA, the pups serve as a powerful symbol of de-extinction and conservation. With Indigenous collaboration, the project could also help in saving other endangered species, like the red wolf.

Dezbaterile dintre candidații la alegerile prezidențiale vor fi mai importante decât oricând, spune la RFI directorul INSCOP, Remus Ștefureac. Pe de altă parte, el nu crede în sondajele prezentate public în ultima perioadă. Remus Ștefureac, despre sondajele electorale, înainte de alegerile prezidențiale: ”În acest moment, pare și văd această tendință, am văzut-o și anul trecut, în care unele sondaje sunt transformate mai degrabă în instrumente de marketing politic, de promovare a intereselor unor candidați”.Despre dezbaterile dintre candidații la alegerile prezidențiale: ”Dezbaterile vor fi mai importante decât oricând. Nici un candidat nu-și permite de această dată să evite dezbaterile, mai ales când diferența dintre ei e foarte strânsă, pentru că va părea ca o abdicare de la jocul politic”.Remus Ștefureac vorbește în interviul acordat RFI și despre prima criză din coaliția de la guvernare, privind posibila demitere a ministrului de Externe, Emil Hurezeanu.

The Wizarding World is leaning fascist, Remus is chain-smoking and head-butting with the best of them, and Sirius is charmingly mispronouncing the word cigarette.

On this week's remastered episode, we head back to the Prohibition Era! We kick things off with one of the first well known bootleggers after the Volstead Act was passed, George Remus. Through his profession as a pharmacist, he would get legal booze, have it hijacked by his men, and then sell it on the illegal market for millions. It all went downhill after he got busted and sent to prison where his then wife stole all his money and that's where the story gets even more crazy!  Subscribe to our YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/@bangdangnetworkBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/outlaws-gunslingers--4737234/support.

We're talking Alien Romulus in this week's episode of (Not So) Live from Asteroid G. The interquel / reboot / side-story for the franchise came and went, doing decent numbers but getting lambasted by critics. We take a look back at it to see if it really was that bad. Spoilers: it was.

The narrative surrounding Valentine's Day includes an appreciation for its origins and lesser-known traditions, such as Lupercalia, which was celebrated on February 15. Both events share common themes, particularly in their rituals and associations with fertility. Additionally, the legend of Romulus and Remus, who are credited as the founders of Rome, has been connected to Valentine's Day, though the precise nature of this relationship remains ambiguous.

Welcome to this week's special Valentine's Day episode of The Produce Buzzers Podcast, where we're diving into the most romantic fruits and vegetables to set the mood for love. From the aptly named passion fruit to mythical artichokes to heart-healthy beets and the silky sweetness of strawberries, we'll explore the aphrodisiac powers, symbolism, and delicious ways to incorporate these love-boosting foods into your Valentine's Day celebrations.
