In the bottom of the first inning of the Brewers' 8-1 win over the New York Mets at Citi Field, May was smoked by a 106 mph line drive. The 28-year-old threw a 96 mph fastball to Mets center fielder A.J. Ewing, and the ball came straight back at him, only harder. The ball was hit so hard that when it ricocheted off May, who did his best to turn away from the blazing liner, it went straight to third baseman David Hamilton, who then fired to first base to retire Ewing.

Who could potentially replace White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt?
Who could potentially replace White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt? The departure of White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt will create a major opening in President Donald Trump's administration, and the guessing-game of who will replace her has already begun. So far, the White House has not announced who will succeed Leavitt, and sources within and close to the administration said no decision has yet been made. Leavitt has worked closely with Trump for years, and finding someone to take over could prove difficult. In announcing she would step down at the end of the month, Trump called Leavitt one of his most trusted aides.
Intel receives 5.7bn as Trump administration buys 10 percent stake
The chief financial officer for the chip manufacturer Intel, David Zinsner, has announced his company received 5.7bn as part of a deal negotiated with the administration of United States President Donald Trump. During an investor conference on Thursday, Zinsner said that Intel, a leader in the US development of semiconductor chips, received the funds on Wednesday evening. Last week, the White House revealed the federal government would take a 10 percent stake in the struggling tech giant, based in Santa Clara, California. As part of the deal, the government negotiated a five-year warrant for an additional 5 percent of Intel's shares, in case the company should cease to own more than 51 percent of its manufacturing operations. "I don't think there's a high likelihood that we would take our stake below 50 percent," Zinsner said.
Trump reveals what New Jersey drones REALLY were as White House admits craft were conducting 'research'
President Donald Trump has revealed the mysterious drones over New Jersey were'not the enemy' and had been authorized to conduct'research'. In the first press briefing of Trump's second administration, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had been authorized to fly the drones for'research and various other reasons'. Leavitt said many of the drones were also'hobbyists, recreational and private individuals that enjoy flying drones' and claims that'in time, it got worse due to curiosity.' She added information had come'directly from the president of the United States that was just shared with me in the Oval Office'. But the White House's vague explanation has raised even more questions, especially after the FAA - which investigated the sightings after receiving reports from'concerned citizens' - failed to previously mention the alleged research.
President Donald Trump shares update on drones seen flying over New Jersey
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt shared a message from President Donald Trump on the source of drone sightings reported over New Jersey. The White House on Tuesday revealed that some of the drones seen flying over New Jersey and other parts of the country in November were authorized to be flown by the Federal Aviation Administration. Press secretary Karoline Leavitt shared an update "directly" from President Donald Trump that clarified the origin of the drones, which caused a national stir and captured headlines for weeks late last year. "After research and study, the drones that were flying over New Jersey in large numbers were authorized by the FAA for research and various other reasons," Leavitt said. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt holds her first news conference in the Brady Press Briefing Room at the White House on Jan. 28, 2025, in Washington, D.C.
White House, Biden campaign call Trump's cognitive ability into question
Rep. Jake Auchincloss, D-Mass., joins'America's Newsroom' to discuss reports of Democratic concerns about President Biden's 2024 candidacy. The White House and Biden campaign have questioned former President Trump's fitness to serve as questions continue to swirl around President Biden's mental acuity. Asked during a news conference Tuesday if Biden had Alzheimer's or any form of dementia, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said "no" while hinting that the "same exact question" should be asked of the "other guy," referring to Trump. The answer comes after Biden continues to face widespread skepticism about his ability to win the election and serve another term as president in the wake of a disastrous debate performance last week, resulting in many calling on the president to step aside and let a younger candidate take over at the top of the ticket. The Biden campaign has acknowledged the president's poor performance but pushed back against the idea he would drop out of the race, arguing Biden still has the ability to lead and is the party's best chance at defeating Trump. The campaign has also begun calling Trump's cognitive ability into question, citing times the former president has confused who he was talking about.
Higher-order mutual information reveals synergistic sub-networks for multi-neuron importance
Clauw, Kenzo, Stramaglia, Sebastiano, Marinazzo, Daniele
Quantifying which neurons are important with respect to the classification decision of a trained neural network is essential for understanding their inner workings. Previous work primarily attributed importance to individual neurons. In this work, we study which groups of neurons contain synergistic or redundant information using a multivariate mutual information method called the O-information. We observe the first layer is dominated by redundancy suggesting general shared features (i.e. detecting edges) while the last layer is dominated by synergy indicating local class-specific features (i.e. concepts). Finally, we show the O-information can be used for multi-neuron importance. This can be demonstrated by re-training a synergistic sub-network, which results in a minimal change in performance. These results suggest our method can be used for pruning and unsupervised representation learning.
