										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<img width="300" height="200" src="https://www.hopegirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/bounty.jpg" class="webfeedsFeaturedVisual wp-post-image" alt="ICE officers crack down on protesters outside immigration facility in Illinois" style="display: block; margin: auto; margin-bottom: 5px;max-width: 100%;" link_thumbnail="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" /><p>In addition to the extensive technology at its disposal, Immigration and Customs Enforcement is devising plans for a bounty-hunting program that would enlist private contractors to help carry out Donald Trump’s mass deportations.</p>
<section id="ch-0" class="po-cn__intro po-wp__intro">In February, at the start of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, news broke that a group of military contractors was circulating a blueprint for mass deportations, to be carried out by private contractors.</p>
<p>Led by Erik Prince, Donald Trump ally and founder of the notorious mercenary firm Blackwater, the group proposed (among other ideas) that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) create a “skip tracing team” that would send out private contractors to hunt down immigrants targeted for deportation, per <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/02/25/documents-military-contractors-mass-deportations-022648">reporting</a> at the time by <em>Politico</em>.</p>
<p>Now, there are indications ICE is carrying out those plans.</p>
<p>Last month, <em>t</em><em>he Lever </em><a href="https://www.levernews.com/ice-just-bought-a-social-media-surveillance-botice-just-bought-a-social-media-surveillance-bot/">revealed</a> that ICE had signed a $7 million contract with defense contractor SOS International for “skip tracing services.” SOS International, also known as SOSi, has long done business with the federal government, including working with the <a href="https://www.occrp.org/en/investigation/how-afghanistans-president-helped-his-brother-and-a-us-contractor-secure-a-lucrative-mineral-processing-permit">US military</a> in Afghanistan — and has business ties to one of the military contractors whose name was listed alongside Prince’s in the proposal.</p>
<p>It was the first time, per online federal procurement databases, that an ICE contract description contained the phrase “skip tracing,” a term usually associated with debt collection and bounty hunting. There was little further detail about the services SOSi would provide to Trump’s immigration enforcers.</p>
<p>The contract — with its eerie callback to the Prince deportation blueprint — appears not to be a fluke. Several days later, ICE signed another “<a href="https://www.usaspending.gov/award/CONT_AWD_70CDCR26FR0000003_7012_GS23F0026U_4730">skip tracing</a>” contract, this time worth up to $33.5 million, with international debt collector Global Recovery Group LLC.</p>
<p>Then, on Friday, October 31, as the<em> Intercept </em>first <a href="https://theintercept.com/2025/10/31/ice-plans-cash-rewards-for-private-bounty-hunters-to-locate-and-track-immigrants/">reported</a>, ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations bureau, the agency’s primary deportation arm, released <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/26217479-november-2025-ice-skip-tracing-rfi/">procurement documents</a> that mapped out new plans to create a bounty-hunting program that would deploy skip tracing methods. Though the documents are preliminary, ICE’s proposed program hews closely to the blueprint drawn up in February by Prince and his cadre of military contractors.</p>
<p>Under the program, private contractors will deploy “all technology systems available” to locate ICE’s targets, the documents say. Contractors would be given a list of ten thousand names at a time and be allowed to ultimately locate “up to 1,000,000” individuals, per the records.</p>
<p>ICE already has plenty of technology at its disposal to identify and track down immigrants, an arsenal that the agency is further<a href="https://www.levernews.com/ice-just-bought-a-social-media-surveillance-botice-just-bought-a-social-media-surveillance-bot/"> building out</a> now that it is flush with cash. But the “skip tracing team” appears distinct in that its mandate would include sending out privately contracted bounty hunters to systematically identify immigrants’ residences and workplaces.</p>
<p>The bounty hunting program would include “performance-based incentives” — cash bonuses for vendors who successfully hunt down immigrants for ICE. This cash payout idea appears to be pulled directly from the Prince memo, which suggested that ICE build out a “bounty program which provides a cash reward for each illegal alien held by a state or local law enforcement officer.”</p>
<p>To judge from ICE’s first skip tracing contracts with SOSi and Global Recovery Group LLC, which are together worth over $40 million, the program will prove yet another gold mine for the military contractors clamoring for their cut of the Trump administration’s multibillion-dollar immigration spending blitz. And that makes sense: it was drafted by those same vendors.</p>
</section>
<section id="ch-1" class="po-cn__section po-wp__section">
<h1 class="po-cn__subhead po-wp__subhead">From Blackwater to Bounty Hunting</h1>
<p>The core message of Prince’s deportation plan was this: If President Donald Trump wanted to carry out his stated goals of mass deportations, he couldn’t do so alone. “The government,” the plan said, “should enlist outside assistance.”</p>
<p>Although <em>Politico </em>did not publish the complete text of the proposal, what has been made public from the document indicates that Prince was making the suggestion as part of the “special entity” 2USV, a group of defense contractors. (An LLC with the same name has been <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/04/11/military-contractors-prison-plan-detained-immigrants-erik-prince-00287208">registered</a> in Wyoming, but many details about the project remain unclear.)</p>
<p>The contractors include former Blackwater employees like Bill Mathews, the company’s former vice president, who <a href="https://www.justice.gov/usao-ednc/pr/previous-officers-corporate-entity-formerly-known-blackwater-plead-guilty-are-sentenced">pleaded guilty</a> to <a href="https://www.justice.gov/usao-ednc/pr/previous-officers-corporate-entity-formerly-known-blackwater-plead-guilty-are-sentenced">violating</a> firearms records law related to his work at the mercenary firm, as well as Richard Pere, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/richard-pere-39928736/">former head</a> of a Blackwater <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/national/2010/03/26/exblackwater-aviation-firm-is-sold-to-aar/d11af990-dca5-4bf5-bb27-cb51cbd0517f/">aviation subsidiary</a>. Most of the Blackwater alumni have not been formally associated with the company in years. Blackwater has gone through a series of acquisitions and name changes since Prince <a href="https://archive.nytimes.com/dealbook.nytimes.com/2010/12/16/blackwater-founder-in-deal-to-sell-company/">sold the firm</a> in 2010; its latest form is the private security conglomerate Constellis, which <a href="https://constellis.com/what-we-do/training-services/advanced-security-military-training/">still operates</a> the flagship Blackwater training center in North Carolina and is now <a href="https://x.com/ktyschwnk/status/1980736009127289070">trying</a> to “drive strategic growth” in its border-operations work.</p>
<p>So far, there are no clear ties between Prince’s current business ventures — including Vectus Global, a murky security firm that is <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/trump-ally-erik-prince-plans-keep-personnel-haiti-10-years-fight-gangs-collect-2025-08-14/">sending</a> drones and mercenaries to the Haitian government — and the vendors now inking deals to carry out ICE’s new bounty-hunting program. But at least one other contractor involved in the initial proposal has business ties to the companies that have been tapped to carry out the plans.</p>
<p>Louis Gobern, one of the names listed in the initial Prince memo, is currently the <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/louieg/">president</a> of Resilient Logistics Services &amp; Solutions, a defense contractor that <a href="https://rls-2.com/services/">advertises</a> its work with the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Defense. The company names <a href="https://rls-2.com/services/">SOS International</a>, ICE’s new skip tracing contractor, as an “industry partner,” and both companies have previously worked as <a href="https://www.highergov.com/contract/GS10F0262P-70B03C23F00000282/">subcontractors</a> on the same Customs and Border Protection contract.</p>
<p>SOS International has been vying for Department of Homeland Security contracts in recent months, <a href="https://www.levernews.com/ice-just-bought-a-social-media-surveillance-botice-just-bought-a-social-media-surveillance-bot/">poaching</a> one of ICE’s top intelligence chiefs, Andre Watson, in August. The company <a href="https://www.sosi.com/press-releases/sosi-hires-former-hsi-executive-andre-watson-to-bolster-law-enforcement-partnerships/">boasted</a> that Watson, who <a href="https://knightcolumbia.org/content/i-signed-letters-referring-student-protesters-for-deportation-ice-official-testifies">helped run</a> the ICE program targeting students for political speech, would help the contractor “expand its business and deliver capabilities to the federal and state law enforcement agencies.”</p>
<p>When <em>Politico </em>contacted Mathews, one of the former Blackwater executives, about the proposal in February, he claimed he had heard nothing from the Trump administration about moving forward with the bounty hunter program.</p>
<p>“There has been zero show of interest or engagement from the government, and we have no reason to believe there will be,” he said.</p>
<p>If ICE’s recent multimillion-dollar spending spree is any indication, that is changing.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<img width="300" height="200" src="https://www.hopegirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/tent-camp-300x200.jpg" class="webfeedsFeaturedVisual wp-post-image" alt="East Montana Detention Facility, the new ICE detention facility being built in El Paso, Texas" style="display: block; margin: auto; margin-bottom: 5px;max-width: 100%;" link_thumbnail="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" /><p>WASHINGTON (AP) — When President Donald Trump’s administration last month awarded a contract worth up to $1.2 billion to build and operate what it says will become the nation’s largest immigration detention complex, it didn’t turn to a large government contractor or even a firm that specializes in private prisons.</p>
<p>Instead, it handed the project on a military base to Acquisition Logistics LLC, a small business that has no listed experience running a correction facility and had never won a federal contract worth more than $16 million. The company also lacks a functioning website and lists as its address a modest home in suburban Virginia owned by a 77-year-old retired Navy flight officer.</p>
<p>The mystery over the award only deepened last week as the new facility began to accept its first detainees. The Pentagon has refused to release the contract or explain why it selected Acquisition Logistics over a dozen other bidders to build the massive tent camp at Fort Bliss in west Texas. At least one competitor has filed a complaint.</p>
<p>The secretive — and brisk — contracting process is emblematic, experts said, of the government’s broader rush to fulfill the Republican president’s pledge to arrest and deport an estimated 10 million migrants living in the U.S. without permanent legal status. As part of that push, the government is turning increasingly to the military to handle tasks that had traditionally been left to civilian agencies.</p>
<p>A member of Congress who recently toured the camp said she was concerned that such a small and inexperienced firm had been entrusted to build and run a facility expected to house up to 5,000 migrants.</p>
<p>“It’s far too easy for standards to slip,” said Rep. Veronica Escobar, a Democrat whose district includes Fort Bliss. “Private facilities far too frequently operate with a profit margin in mind as opposed to a governmental facility.”</p>
<p>Attorney Joshua Schnell, who specializes in federal contracting law, said he was troubled that the Trump administration has provided so little information about the facility.</p>
<p>“The lack of transparency about this contract leads to legitimate questions about why the Army would award such a large contract to a company without a website or any other publicly available information demonstrating its ability to perform such a complicated project,” he said.</p>
<p>Ken A. Wagner, the president and CEO of Acquisition Logistics, did not respond to phone messages or emails. No one answered the door at his three-bedroom house listed as his company’s headquarters. Virginia records list Wagner as an owner of the business, though it’s unclear whether he might have partners.</p>
<h2>Army declines to release contract</h2>
<p>Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth approved using Fort Bliss for the new detention center, and the administration has hopes to build more at other bases. A spokesperson for the Army declined to discuss its deal with Acquisition Logistics or reveal details about the camp’s construction, citing the litigation over the company’s qualifications.</p>
<p>The Department of Homeland Security, which includes U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, declined to answer questions about the detention camp it oversees.</p>
<p>Named Camp East Montana for the closest road, the facility is being built in the sand and scrub Chihuahuan Desert, where summertime temperatures can exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit and heat-related deaths are common. The 60-acre (24-hectare) site is near the U.S.-Mexico border and the El Paso International Airport, a key hub for deportation flights.</p>
<p>The camp has drawn comparisons to “Alligator Alcatraz,” a $245 million tent complex erected to hold ICE detainees in the Florida Everglades. That facility has been the subject of complaints about unsanitary conditions and lawsuits. A federal judge recently ordered that facility to be shut down.</p>
<p>The vast majority of the roughly 57,000 migrants detained by ICE are housed at private prisons operated by companies like Florida’s Geo Group and Tennessee-based CoreCivic. As those facilities fill up, ICE is also exploring temporary options at military bases in California, New York and Utah.</p>
<p>At Fort Bliss, construction began within days of the Army issuing the contract on July 18. Site work began months earlier, before Congress had passed Trump’s big tax and spending cuts bill, which includes a record $45 billion for immigration enforcement. The Defense Department announcement specified only that the Army was financing the initial $232 million for the first 1,000 beds at the complex.</p>
<p>Three white tents, each about 810 feet (250 meters) long, have been erected, according to satellite imagery examined by The Associated Press. A half dozen smaller buildings surround them.</p>
<p>Setareh Ghandehari, a spokesperson for the advocacy group Detention Watch, said the use of military bases hearkens back to World War II, when Japanese Americans were imprisoned at Army camps including Fort Bliss. She said military facilities are especially prone to abuse and neglect because families and loved ones have difficulty accessing them.</p>
<p>“Conditions at all detention facilities are inherently awful,” Ghandehari said. “But when there’s less access and oversight, it creates the potential for even more abuse.”</p>
<h2>Company will be responsible for security</h2>
<p>A June 9 solicitation notice for the Fort Bliss project specified the contractor will be responsible for building and operating the detention center, including providing security and medical care. The document also requires strict secrecy, ordering the contractor inform ICE to respond to any calls from members of Congress or the news media.</p>
<p>The bidding was open only to small firms such as Acquisition Logistics, which receives preferential status because it’s classified as a veteran and Hispanic-owned small disadvantaged business.</p>
<p>Though Trump’s administration has fought to ban diversity, equity and inclusion programs, federal contracting rules include set-asides for small businesses owned by women or minorities. For a firm to compete for such contracts, at least 51% of it must be owned by people belonging to a federally designated disadvantaged racial or ethnic group.</p>
<p>One of the losing bidders, Texas-based Gemini Tech Services, filed a protest challenging the award and the Army’s rushed construction timeline with the U.S. Government Accountability Office, Congress’ independent oversight arm that resolves such disputes.</p>
<p>Gemini alleges Acquisition Logistics lacks the experience, staffing and resources to perform the work, according to a person familiar with the complaint who wasn’t authorized to discuss the matter and spoke on the condition of anonymity. Acquisition Logistics’ past jobs include repairing small boats for the Air Force, providing information technology support to the Defense Department and building temporary offices to aid with immigration enforcement, federal records show.</p>
<p>Gemini and its lawyer didn’t respond to messages seeking comment.</p>
<p>A ruling by the GAO on whether to sustain, dismiss or require corrective action is not expected before November. A legal appeal is also pending with a U.S. federal court in Washington.</p>
<p>Schnell, the contracting lawyer, said Acquisitions Logistics may be working with a larger company. Geo Group Inc. and CoreCivic Corp., the nation’s biggest for-profit prison operators, have expressed interest in contracting with the Pentagon to house migrants.</p>
<p>In an earnings call this month, Geo Group CEO George Zoley said his company had teamed up with an established Pentagon contractor. Zoley didn’t name the company, and Geo Group didn’t respond to repeated requests asking with whom it had partnered.</p>
<p>A spokesperson for CoreCivic said it wasn’t partnering with Acquisition Logistics or Gemini.</p>

<p>Sweden has become the first European country to join forces with NATO and secure land to bury millions of its citizens.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.infowars.com/posts/nato-state-seeking-more-cemetery-space-for-potential-future-war-casualties" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Infowars.com</a> reports: The burial association in Sweden’s second-largest city, Gothenburg, is trying to acquire additional land to ensure casket sites for some 30,000 dead, on top of what is needed for graveyards for regular use, AP wrote on Saturday.</p>
<p>Swedish media outlets reported earlier this month that the authorities were bracing for up to half a million potential fatalities if the country were to enter a full-scale war.</p>
<p><em>In big cities… land resources are scarce to begin with and not always sufficient to meet burial ground needs even in times of calm and peace,”</em> AP quoted Katarina Evenseth, senior advisor at the Goteborg Burial Association, as saying.</p>
<p>In October, the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) released updated civil preparedness guides with instructions on how to survive during an armed conflict. The brochure, dubbed <em>“In case of crisis or war,”</em> contains advice on evacuation, how to stop bleeding, and other recommendations.</p>
<p><em>“The national security situation has changed drastically, and we all need to strengthen our resilience to various crises and, ultimately, war,”</em> MSB Director General Mikael Frisell said in a statement last month.</p>
<p>Stockholm dropped decades of military non-alliance and joined NATO in March, amid the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The US-led bloc has been supporting Kiev by providing military aid, and in November, Washington authorized strikes using its missiles deep inside Russian territory. France has also suggested that Ukraine should be allowed to fire its missiles into Russia in self-defense, and Moscow has claimed that British-supplied Storm Shadows have already been used in such strikes.</p>
<p>Moscow has reiterated that the move makes NATO a direct party to the conflict.</p>
<p>According to critics of Stockholm’s accession to NATO, Sweden has become a potential target in the event of a war.</p>
<p>”<em>The Swedish people are facing a brutal reality where they are expected to adapt to a rhetoric of war that is not only foreign, but also deeply frightening… Instead of prioritizing peacekeeping efforts, politicians choose to place the country in a position where it risks becoming a battlefield for the power games of major powers</em>,” Swedish conservative online platform Kulturbilder wrote earlier this month.</p>
<p>Swedish Defense Minister Pal Jonson stated in October that Russia posed a threat to Sweden, and that the country could not rule out a Russian attack. Several other NATO members, such as Poland and the Baltic countries, have voiced similar concerns.</p>
<p>Russian President Vladimir Putin has dismissed the claims as nonsense. Last week the Russian leader reiterated that Moscow was <em>“striving to end the conflict.”</em></p>

<p>The United Nations will be meeting soon to secretly negotiate a series of pacts at its so-called <em>Summit of the Future</em>. The goal, in the words of the UN and its top officials, is to establish the framework for a new one-world “system” tailored to the digital age in a restructured world.</p>
<p>No matter how they try to dress it up with euphemistic buzzwords — spouting off promises of more <em>equality</em> and a world that’s more <em>inclusive</em>, more <em>efficient</em>, and more <em>resilient </em>— this new system will not be a friend of freedom.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://expose-news.com/2024/09/11/un-is-hoping-to-establish-one-world-government/" rel="">The Exposé</a></strong> notes that there is no lawful authorization for delegates to vote on any of the pacts being negotiated — the so-called <em>Pact for the Future</em>, the <em>Declaration for Future Generations</em>, the <em>Global Digital Compact</em> or what UN Secretary General António Guterres is calling <em><a href="https://www.un.org/en/common-agenda" rel="">Our Common Agenda</a></em>.</p>
<p>The <em><a href="https://unric.org/en/summit-of-the-future/" rel="">Summit of the Future</a></em> is a high-level United Nations summit scheduled for September 22 and 23 in New York City, with “action days” being held on September 20 and 21. The summit will culminate in the adoption of a “<em><strong>Pact for the Future</strong></em>.”</p>
<p>My gut tells me this <em>Pact for the Future</em> will be a pact with the devil.</p>
<p>Leaders from UN member states will attend the summit to <em>reaffirm </em>their “unwavering commitment” to the UN, its charter, its principles and its Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. They will vow to submit to all UN agencies including the World Health Organization and the International Court of Justice. All of this is designed to move us towards what the <a href="https://unric.org/en/summit-of-the-future/" rel="">UN is calling</a> a “reinvigorated multilateral system better positioned to impact people’s lives positively.”</p>
<p>We must ask ourselves: When has the UN “system” ever impacted our lives in a positive way?</p>
<p>About the <em>Pact for the Future</em>, the UN says on its <strong><a href="https://unric.org/en/summit-of-the-future/" rel="">website</a></strong>: “This actionable document will be negotiated and endorsed by countries during the September 2024 <strong><a href="https://www.un.org/en/summit-of-the-future" rel="">Summit</a></strong>, fostering a more resilient global community for current and future generations.”</p>
<p>Participants will include representatives from various UN agencies, selected non-governmental organizations, selected businesses and industries, selected representatives from universities and research institutions, selected municipalities, regional governments and local authorities.</p>
<p>They’re all gathering to unite under the slogan of “representatives of future generations.”</p>
<p>Buried deep in the bowels of this document is this little gem, requiring member states to embed UN “agreements and resolutions” into their national laws:</p>
<blockquote><p>“[Member states will] deepen United Nations’ engagement with national parliaments in United Nations intergovernmental bodies and processes, in accordance with national legislation, including through building on the efforts of the United Nations and Inter-Parliamentary Union to engage parliamentarians to maintain support for the implementation of relevant UN agreements and resolutions.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Guterres, the unapolagetic Portugese socialist who runs the UN, says, “We can’t build a future for our grandchildren with a system built by our grandparents.”</p>
<p>So they’re talking about scrapping the current world order based on sovereign nation-states and switching over to a new one — one that will be fully integrated under a centralized power structure and fully digital for maximized control of the masses.</p>
<p>Everyone will be expected to have a biometric digital ID that marks them not just as citizens of their individual country but as <em>global citizens</em>. Dissident opinions or unapproved expressions of reality will be dismissed as “misinformation,” “disinformation” or “malinformation” and memory-holed. Perpetrators of such unapproved information will be fact-checked and punished by the system, which will be operated and enforced by the most efficient of means — artificial intelligence. Punishments will include being locked out of one’s bank account, being unable to make certain purchases, unable to get on a plane or subway or drive on public roads. This is the future according to the world’s self-appointed overlords at the UN.</p>
<p>There are two chapters in the draft <em>Pact of the Future </em>document: a chapter on science, technology, innovation and digital cooperation, and a chapter on youth and future generations. The draft chapter on youth and future generations builds on the 1997 <a href="https://en.unesco.org/about-us/legal-affairs/declaration-responsibilities-present-generations-towards-future-generations" rel="">UNESCO Declaration on Responsibilities towards Future Generations</a>.</p>
<p>Patrick Wood, editor-in-chief at <strong><a href="https://www.technocracy.news/pact-for-the-future-nations-to-swear-fealty-to-un/" rel="">Technocracy.News</a></strong>, says the <em>Pact for the Future</em> will be where nations swear fealty to the UN.</p>
<p>Fealty is defined as “the fidelity of a vassal or feudal tenant to his lord.”</p>
<p>Wood adds that, “These national leaders aren’t free agents but rather behave like they are members of a cult, given over to self-harm. The UN mixes the magic potion that is willingly consumed, converting them into global citizen/slaves. If the U.S. were to stop funding the UN, it would fold like a deck of cards.”</p>
<p>Trust me, nothing good will come out of this globalist conference in New York.</p>
<p>The only way around it will be through official declarations by state legislatures, county commissions, city councils and, <em><strong>most importantly our</strong></em> <em><strong>sheriffs</strong></em><strong>, </strong>saying that any UN dictates will be considered null and void in their jurisdictions, regardless of whether such dictates are being enforced by the county, the state or the rogue entity in Washington that refers to itself as the federal government.</p>
<p><strong>We need to elect more</strong> <em><strong><a href="https://cspoa.org/" rel="">Constitutional Sheriffs</a></strong></em>. They will be our best defense against the unique form of globalist tyranny coming down from the United Nations and its subsidiary organizations (these subsidiaries include the U.S. federal government and any state or municipal government that is in compliance, officially or unofficially, with any UN goals, guidelines or dictates).</p>
<p>Do you have a Constitutional Sheriff in your county of residence? Do you know of a current candidate for sheriff who you know will stand up to the globalists that you’d like to support or give a shout out to? If so, please let us know in the comments below your county and the name of your sheriff or sheriff candidate.</p>

Their findings suggest that a red bread mold could be the key to producing more sustainable electrochemical materials for use in rechargeable batteries.</p>
<p>The researchers show for the first time that the fungus Neurospora crassa can transform manganese into a mineral composite with favorable electrochemical properties.</p>
<p>&#8220;We have made electrochemically active materials using a fungal manganese biomineralization process,&#8221; says Geoffrey Gadd of the University of Dundee in Scotland. &#8220;The electrochemical properties of the carbonized fungal biomass-mineral composite were tested in a supercapacitor and a lithium-ion battery, and it [the composite] was found to have excellent electrochemical properties. This system therefore suggests a novel biotechnological method for the preparation of sustainable electrochemical materials.&#8221;</p>
<p>Gadd and his colleagues have long studied the ability of fungi to transform metals and minerals in useful and surprising ways. In earlier studies, the researchers showed that fungi could stabilize toxic lead and uranium, for example. That led the researchers to wonder whether fungi could offer a useful alternative strategy for the preparation of novel electrochemical materials too.</p>
<p>&#8220;We had the idea that the decomposition of such biomineralized carbonates into oxides might provide a novel source of metal oxides that have significant electrochemical properties,&#8221; Gadd says.</p>
<p>In fact, there have been many efforts to improve lithium-ion battery or supercapacitor performance using alternative electrode materials such as carbon nanotubes and other manganese oxides. But few had considered a role for fungi in the manufacturing process.</p>
<p>In the new study, Gadd and his colleagues incubated N. crassa in media amended with urea and manganese chloride (MnCl2) and watched what happened. The researchers found that the long branching fungal filaments (or hyphae) became biomineralized and/or enveloped by minerals in various formations. After heat treatment, they were left with a mixture of carbonized biomass and manganese oxides. Further study of those structures show that they have ideal electrochemical properties for use in supercapacitors or lithium-ion batteries.</p>
<p>&#8220;We were surprised that the prepared biomass-Mn oxide composite performed so well,&#8221; Gadd says. In comparison to other reported manganese oxides in lithium-ion batteries, the carbonized fungal biomass-mineral composite &#8220;showed an excellent cycling stability and more than 90% capacity was retained after 200 cycles,&#8221; he says.</p>
<p>The new study is the first to demonstrate the synthesis of active electrode materials using a fungal biomineralization process, illustrating the great potential of these fungal processes as a source of useful biomaterials.</p>
<p>Gadd says they&#8217;ll continue to explore the use of fungi in producing various potentially useful metal carbonates. They&#8217;re also interested in investigating such processes for the biorecovery of valuable or scarce metal elements in other chemical forms.</p>

<p>Tesla’s Spirit Radio uses a simple crystal radio circuit connected to a computer sound-in jack to generate spooky sounds from all <span id="IL_AD6" class="IL_AD">kinds</span> of <span id="IL_AD5" class="IL_AD">electromagnetic</span> sources. As you <span id="IL_AD2" class="IL_AD">will see</span>, it creeped the hell out of Tesla himself.</p>
<p><em>“My first observations positively terrified me as there was present in them something mysterious, not to say supernatural, and I was alone in my laboratory at night.”</em><br />
<em>– <span id="IL_AD7" class="IL_AD">Nikola Tesla</span> 1901</em></p>
<p><em>“The sounds I am listening to every night at first appear to be human voices conversing back and forth in a language I cannot understand. I find it difficult to imagine that I am actually hearing real voices from people not of this planet. There must be a more simple explanation that has so far eluded me.”</em><br />
<em>– Nikola Tesla 1918</em></p>
<p>Is it science or the supernatural? Check out the <span id="IL_AD1" class="IL_AD">video</span> to see what the radio is capable of and, if your are so inclined, build one and decide for yourself. Needless to say, this would be a hit at a Halloween party. Hit the link for a <span id="IL_AD4" class="IL_AD">complete</span>set of instructions.
