Billions of tiny particles packed into rechargeable lithium-ion battery electrodes are responsible for storing charge and making it available when it's needed to do work. X-ray movies of this process show the particles absorbing and releasing lithium ions as the battery charges and discharges. Now, in an important step forward, researchers have used a type of machine learning called "computer vision" to dig even deeper, analyzing each and every pixel of those X-ray movies to discover physical and chemical details of battery cycling that couldn't be seen before.

A deputy from Kazakhstan's lower chamber of Parliament, the Mazhilis, has made an outrageous proposal to punish women for provoking abuse by their husbands. This, in a country where police receive more than 100,000 domestic violence complaints annually. In a September 26 meeting, where parliament's Legislation and Judicial Reform Committee was discussing measures to combat domestic violence, Amantai Zharkynbek, a deputy from the ruling Amanat political party, said that if a woman's husband is sentenced to 15 days of administrative arrest for domestic violence, then 'it follows that his wife should be detained too,' for 'provoking' the abuse.

Today, we acknowledge the 105 th anniversary of the Battle of Amiens - a crucial engagement that opened the door to victory in the final phase of the First World War. It was the start of three months of stunning battlefield achievements that became known as "Canada's Hundred Days," where the actions of our soldiers helped define the Canadian Corps as one of the most effective fighting forces on the Western Front. The Germans launched a series of offensives in March 1918 aimed at breaking a stalemate following years of bitter trench warfare.

Poverty Bay fullback Ricardo Patricio finishes off an early contender for the individual try of the season in the Bay's Heartland Championship clash with Mid Canterbury at the Oval on Saturday. With around 20 minutes of the match remaining, Patricio fielded a clearing kick a couple of metres inside the Bay 10-metre line. He proceeded to chip kick the ball over incoming Mid Canterburyplayers, got the bounce, stepped inside one defender and left another two smelling his fumes as he put on the afterburners and sprinted to the try line for a five-pointer he will never forget.
