haha 777 agent login NEW YORK (AP) — Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Jose D. Hernandez was suspended for next year's Arizona Complex League season on Wednesday following a positive test for boldenone and nandrolone under baseball's minor league drug program. The 21-year-old Hernandez hit .302 with four homers and 21 RBIs in 26 games this year for the ACL Dodgers. The Venezuelan agreed to a contract with the Dodgers in 2019 that included a $10,000 signing bonus. Twenty players have been suspended this year for positive drug tests, including nine under the minor league program and nine under the new program for minor league players assigned outside the United States and Canada. Two players have been suspended this year under the major league drug program. Noelvi Marté , a 22-year-old infielder who was considered Cincinnati's top prospect, missed the first 80 games following a positive test for boldenone. Toronto infielder Orelvis Martínez was suspended for 80 games on June 23 following a positive test for the performance-enhancing drug clomiphene, an announcement made two days after his major league debut . ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb The Associated Press

As science continues its evolution, discoveries and technologies can act like a master key that opens doors that lead to novel advancements. Artificial intelligence is one such key, making innovations possible by solving complex problems, automating tasks and enabling research that would have been impossible, or very time-consuming, without it. But do we want to do research on all topics, and shall we try the AI master key on every door? To explore this question, let’s consider the use of AI by genomics experts as an example. In recent years, genomics experts have added unbelievable depth to what we know about the world and ourselves. For example, genetics researchers have revealed facts about when certain animals and plants were domesticated. In another example, DNA found in 30,000-year-old permafrost was used to create fertile samples of a plant called narrow-leafed campion. Importantly, genetic engineering techniques such as CRISPR facilitate extraordinary advances in the treatment of complicated conditions, such as sickle-cell anemia. Thanks to AI developments, we are witnessing a dramatic increase in the pace and scalability of genomic techniques, which will allow researchers to embark on exploratory journeys — and at the same time, add urgency to already-existing ethical issues. AI companies are also most interested in the scientific implications of this technology. We see this demonstrated in a recent interview between Harvard Business School officials and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. In response to the question, “What are the pieces of AI that you are most excited about?” Altman said: “Greatly increasing the rate of scientific discovery is what I’m most excited about.” However, given the risks and possible consequences of AI use in science, should we rush headlong into using AI in all kinds of projects? One relevant example is research on Neanderthals, our closest relatives, who lived until about 40,000 years ago. Neanderthals have been studied for several years now through genetic investigation of their fossils and their DNA. Genetic engineering can potentially use ancient DNA and genome editing methods to re-create a Neanderthal or aspects of a Neanderthal’s genetics and physiology. To do this, scientists could start by figuring out the DNA sequence of a Neanderthal by comparing it with the DNA of modern humans, since they are closely related. Then, scientists could use CRISPR to swap out parts of human DNA with Neanderthal DNA. This process would require a lot of trial and error and might not succeed soon, but based on what we know about genetics, if something is possible, AI can help make it happen faster, cheaper and with less effort. Scientists are excited about these developments because they could facilitate new discoveries and open up many new research opportunities in genetic research. With or without AI, research on Neanderthals will proceed, but the extraordinary power of AI could give the final push to these discoveries and facilitate this kind of resurrection. At that point, the scientific community must develop norms and guidelines about how to treat these resurrected beings with dispositions very similar to humans. We would need to carefully consider their rights and well-being almost in the same way as when humans are involved and not as research subjects or artifacts of scientific curiosity. These ethical issues are discussed in more detail in a new paper published in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence. A more holistic question to consider is: Should we prioritize the use of resource-intensive AI, researchers’ time and public funds to resurrect extinct beings? Or should we invest these resources into conserving species that are critically endangered today to prevent biodiversity from more degradation?Presbyterian 67, Youngstown St. 42

The five-part series will debut globally on December 10, following elite global players on and off the field as they compete in the US Open Polo Championship in Wellington, Florida. A trailer for the series titled Polo, executive produced by Harry and Meghan, was released on Thursday, giving a behind-the-scenes look at the “fast-paced and glamorous world of polo”. In a statement, Harry said: “This series offers audiences an unprecedented, behind-the-scenes look into the passion and determination driving some of the world’s elite polo players, revealing the grit behind the glamour. “We’re proud to showcase the true depth and spirit of the sport — and the intensity of its high-stakes moments.” It has been produced by the Sussexes’ Archewell Productions, having previously released three documentaries with Netflix as part of a multimillion-pound deal with the streaming giant.

Nicaragua Enacts Law Nullifying Foreign SanctionsAmerican softball greats Cat Osterman and Lisa Fernandez are among the general managers who will lead teams in the new format of the Athletes Unlimited Softball League. Athletes Unlimited announced on Monday that four general managers and coaches have been selected for the league, which will start with a new touring format in June before becoming city-based in 2026. Games will be played in several cities in 2025, including Chicago and Wichita, Kansas. Kelly Kretschman will coach Osterman's team and Howard Dobson will coach Fernandez's squad. Jenny Dalton-Hill will be the general manager for a team coached by Stacey Nuveman-Deniz and Dana Sorensen will be the general manager for a squad Alisa Goler will coach. They will be part of an overall leadership group. It includes Kim Ng, the league's senior adviser in charge of launching the league, and advisers Osterman, Jennie Finch, Jessica Mendoza and Natasha Watley. "This unprecedented collection of general managers and head coaches, with their decades of elite softball experience, unique perspectives, and intense drive, sets the stage for AUSL to meet the moment to deliver an action-packed, world-class softball league that this sport has deserved for so long," Ng said. Fernandez, a three-time Olympic gold medalist, is associate head coach at UCLA. The Bruins have won five national titles in her 26 years on the staff, and she won two as a player for the team. Osterman is a three-time Olympian and was a four-time All-American at Texas. She won the Athletes Unlimited individual softball championship in 2020. Athletes Unlimited Softball has featured an individual format since 2020. This will be the first time it will have a traditional team-based league. There will be two seasons next summer, with the second maintaining the individual format. ESPN, the founding broadcast partner of the AUSL, will carry at least 30 games on its platforms. Each team will play 30 games. Team names and logos have not yet been determined.

An Arizona man has been arrested for allegedly threatening to kill President-elect Donald Trump through “numerous lengthy videos” on Facebook, according to court documents. Manuel Tamayo-Torres was charged with one count of making threats against Trump, referred to in the documents as “Individual 1,” and a president’s successor. The documents allege he made “vague yet direct threats” toward the president-elect, his family and law enforcement agents. The documents state that on Thursday, Tamayo-Torres posted a video in which he said, “You’re gonna die, your son’s gonna die. Your whole family is going to die. This is reality for you now. This is the only reality you have in your future, dying.” He also claimed in the video that the “Secret Service, FBI, CIA and the military are all defenseless.” In another video, Tamayo-Torres was reportedly seen threatening to shoot Trump while holding “what appears to be a white AR-15-style rifle with a 30-round magazine inserted into it,” according to the documents. Officials said Tamayo-Torres posted “on a near-daily basis” about “[Individual 1] and his family kidnapping and sex-trafficking his children.” Tamayo-Torres also claimed in a video posted Aug. 23 from Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona, where Trump was holding a rally, that he “observed [Individual 1] and Secret Service kidnap his daughter there.” While investigating the alleged threats, a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives task force officer said they found photos on Facebook showing Tamayo-Torres holding a bullpup-style shotgun, a rifle and the AR-15-style rifle seen in one of his videos. Tamayo-Torres was arrested in California after he posted a video from his vehicle indicating he was in San Diego. The charges against him were filed in Arizona. In recent months, Trump has faced two assassination attempts — one at a rally in Pennsylvania and another at a golf course in Florida. A report released earlier this month by the Secret Service highlighted “communication failures” that allowed Thomas Matthew Crooks to get close enough to shoot the president-elect in the ear and kill a man at the rally. Crooks was shot and killed by the Secret Service shortly after opening fire. In the second assassination attempt in West Palm Beach, authorities said Ryan Wesley Routh was captured after a Secret Service agent saw the barrel of a rifle poking out from trees. Routh allegedly waited on the golf course for 12 hours. Have a news tip? Contact Alexx Altman-Devilbiss at aaltman-devilbiss@sbgtv.com .
