Google announces quantum computing chip breakthrough
PHILADELPHIA — Heading into the third period the Flyers were singing the blues. The Chicago Blackhawks were playing like they had a full tank of gas thanks to a 2-0 lead on the hometown team. But then the Flyers put the band back together and found their game scoring a pair of goals in less than three minutes in the third period to tie things up. Getting the puck high in the offensive zone, Noah Cates got a chip pass from Bobby Brink before turning and scoring through a screen set by Cam York. The game was York’s first since October and the goal was Cates’ first of the season. In overtime, the Flyers got a power play. Matvei Michkov took a pass from Travis Konecny and buried the puck at the right post to give the Flyers a comeback 3-2 win. The win was the first of Aleksei Kolosov’s NHL career. Captain Couturier Sean Couturier looked like he was on a mission from God in this one, when it came to going to the front of the net. Down 2-0 he had a chance to bury one right atop the blue paint but somehow couldn’t finish. Earlier in the period, while on a power play — and after Michkov made a nifty move to enter the Blackhawks zone and set him up — he was stopped by former Flyers goalie Petr Mrázek. Couturier was doing a lot right offensively, except for scoring. And then he did. The Flyers captain got them on the board as he planted himself in front of the net and redirected a pass from Rasmus Ristolainen. Couturier was all alone for his fourth goal of the season and his first since notching a hat trick against the Minnesota Wild on Oct. 26. Shots After a game against the Carolina Hurricanes in which they were dominated, especially in the third period when coach John Tortorella said his club was “spanked,” the Flyers were owning the ice Saturday. Across the first two periods, the ice was tilted their way with a 21-14 shot attempts advantage in the first and a 19-13 in the second. But they couldn’t score. Mrázek robbed Scott Laughton on a two-on-none with Konecny on a Flyers penalty kill in the first period. Konecny had a pull-and-shoot chance later in the opening frame that went wide before Laughton made a slick move but was stopped again. The Flyers got their chances, putting 24 on net through the first period but couldn’t score. In the third, they scored twice on 12 shots and finished with 37 shots on goal. York, Andrae return The Flyers defense got a boost on Saturday as York returned after missing 13 games with an upper-body injury and Emil Andrae slotted back in after being out for a pair with a mid-body injury. York was back with his defensive partner Travis Sanheim, and Andrae skated alongside Ristolainen for most of the game. Andrae brought his legs, especially in the first period. Michkov got a stretch pass and skated down the right side before going between his legs and getting a backhand attempt on net. The Flyers defenseman used his motor to join the play and tried to through the legs across the crease before losing his handle on the puck. In the second period, Andrae put a shot on goal from the point with 2:05 left that Mrázek couldn’t control. Bobby Brink scooped it up and fed Tyson Foerster in the left face-off circle for a one-timer on an empty net — except veteran defenseman Alec Martinez got his stick in the way to block the sure-fire goal. Through two periods, Andrae had three shot attempts and two shots on goal. Skating in his first game in a month, York was on the ice for all four regulation goals, unfortunately, two of those were for the Blackhawks. On the first goal, the Flyers had a four-on-two but were unable to convert after Konecny’s pass hit the skates of Owen Tippett. Chicago went the other way and Pat Maroon’s pass went through two Flyers — Saheim and Couturier — right to Lukas Reichel for the slam-dunk goal. In the defensive zone, it was an eerily similar play to the Jack Roslovic goal in Wednesday night’s loss to the Hurricanes. On the second goal, Reichel got past the defense again on a chip pass from Maroon. He went in one-on-one with Kolosov and couldn’t score but the Blackhawks kept it going in the Flyers’ end. Maroon got the puck back and drew three Flyers to him — York, Sanheim, and Couturier — and still scored on a backhander. Breakaways Aleksei Kolosov made 19 saves on 21 shots. ... Egor Zamula and Erik Johnson were a healthy scratch. Up next The Flyers host the Vegas Golden Knights on Monday (7 p.m. ET, NBCSP). ©2024 The Philadelphia Inquirer, LLC. Visit at inquirer.com .

From toxicity in mushrooms to using artificial intelligence (AI) for early detection of blindness caused by diabetes, the Kozhikode edition of the Kerala Science Slam 2024 held on Saturday (November 23) showcased researchers explaining scientific facts to the people in a simple language. The event was organised by Luca, a science portal run by the Kerala Sasthra Sahithya Parishad, and the M.S. Swaminathan Chair of the University of Calicut, on the university campus. At the event, C. Bijeesh from Jawaharlal Nehru Tropical Botanical Garden and Research Institute, Palode, Thiruvananthapuram, spoke about the toxic varieties of mushrooms found in Kerala. He said that of them, 10 were highly poisonous. Mr. Bijeesh sought to allay the misconception that all mushrooms found in dark colours were poisonous. He said that most of the poisonous mushroom varieties were either white or seen in light shades. The perception that toxic mushrooms would become blue when they were cooked was also wrong, Mr. Bijeesh said. Sneha Das of the Amala Cancer Research Centre, Thrissur, spoke about a variety of mushrooms that can alleviate the side effects of chemotherapy performed on cancer patients. Morchella esculenta, also known as Guchi mushroom, has anti-oxidant properties, which would help resist cardiac contraction. C. Anjali, researcher, Department of Chemistry, University of Calicut, explained the possibilities of using graphene for collecting atmospheric water. V. Deepa, School of Artificial Intelligence, Mahatma Gandhi University, Kottayam, spoke about AI’s capabilities in detecting blindness in diabetes patients. Celine Ruth spoke about the world of gel, a semi-solid state, which is a mixture of both solid and liquid. These five researchers were selected for the final of the Kerala Science Slam to be held at the Indian Institute of Technology, Palakkad, on December 14. Twenty-four researchers participated in the Kozhikode edition of the event. Around 400 people were in the audience. C.C. Harilal, Dean, Faculty of Science, University of Calicut, opened it. Similar events were earlier held in Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram. The Kannur leg is scheduled for November 30.

Hegseth met with at least two Republican senators on Monday who had expressed concern about the allegations. In statements after the meetings, both Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa and Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina appeared more comfortable with Trump's pick. "As I support Pete through this process, I look forward to a fair hearing based on truth, not anonymous sources," Ernst said. Graham shared a similar sentiment about those anonymously making accusations involving the former Fox News personality's conduct. "The accusations being made regarding financial management of veterans service organizations and personal misconduct should only be considered by the committee if they are supported by testimony before Congress — not anonymous sources," he said. Hegseth has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing. Amid the reports on his alleged conduct, several Republican senators said they found the allegations "disturbing," including Graham. Before meeting with Hegseth on Monday, Ernst said she needed to hear more from him on his stance about women in combat and sexual assault in the military before she decided whether to back him. Ernst is a survivor of sexual assault and a military veteran. She said Monday she had received assurances from Hegseth about how both will be handled if he leads the Pentagon. "I appreciate Pete Hegseth's responsiveness and respect for the process. Following our encouraging conversations, Pete committed to completing a full audit of the Pentagon and selecting a senior official who will uphold the roles and value of our servicemen and women — based on quality and standards, not quotas — and who will prioritize and strengthen my work to prevent sexual assault within the ranks," her statement said. Pentagon Pete Hegseth Lindsey Graham Joni Ernst Caitlin Yilek is a politics reporter at CBSNews.com, based in Washington, D.C. She previously worked for the Washington Examiner and The Hill, and was a member of the 2022 Paul Miller Washington Reporting Fellowship with the National Press Foundation.Helping people overcome one of their greatest fears — public speaking
