This is a classic industrial optimization and waste-valorization problem. In large-scale EVA (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate) injection molding or compression molding (such as in rapid-production shoe factories), spew (the excess material from flash, vents, sprues, and runners) is generated in massive quantities. ​Because footwear EVA is typically cross-linked (vulcanized) using peroxide agents (like DCP) to give it that necessary bouncy, elastic foam structure, it becomes a thermoset-like material. Once cross-linked, it cannot simply be remelted and tossed back into the virgin batch without severely degrading the mechanical properties (split tear, compression set, and shrinkage) of the high-end shoes. ​If your rapid shoe…

I’ve written in the past about MCP (Model Context Protocol) for learning and training (via learning systems), albeit a link to a highly confusing and yet the best version of explanation on the net. MCP, which I will use going forward, is best in explanation to something everyone else can relate to. Let’s say back in the day, you had a DVD player, a Fire TV Stick, a TV remote, perhaps a soundbar remote. Or for plenty of folks nowadays, you have a remote for the soundbar, maybe a remote for a speaker system you want to use with the…

Apart from being close to last in any alphabetical list of plants, Zygophyllum zilloides is a species you need to travel to Morocco, or thereabouts, to see in the wild. It’s described as a western Saharan endemic, which means the drier parts of Morocco (including what has been separated out until recently as ‘Western Sahara’), Algeria and Mauritania. The genus Zygophyllum (in the family Zygophyllaceae), with more than 100 species, is far more widespread: from the broader Mediterranean region south into much of Africa, east through to northern China and the western side of the Americas. Mostly growing in arid or drier habitats,…

Article by Dr Raghuram Y.S. MD (Ay) & Dr Manasa S, B.A.M.S Presbycusis also called ‘age-related hearing loss’ is one of the most common sensory changes associated with aging. It is also called ‘old hearing’ or ‘elderly hearing’. When not treated promptly, it can significantly impact communication and social interaction. It would also badly impact overall quality-of-life. Hearing decline is one among the most prevalent health issues and most common physiological changes occurring among ageing people. It gradually develops over time. Presbycusis is classified as a sensorineural hearing loss. It is an effect of age-related damage occurring within the inner…

**Spoiler Alert: This article contains spoilers for Avatar: Fire and Ash and Avatar: The Last Airbender.**It’s not new for a big Hollywood movie to feature violence. It’s not new for a big Hollywood movie to feature the “little guys” taking on the “big guys.” It’s not new to be rooting for those bad guys to get their comeuppance.But sitting in a dark theater at the end of 2025, I witnessed Avatar: Fire and Ash tell me quite explicitly that, in certain circumstances, it was morally wrong to not commit violence. That kind of explicit theme is a lot more rare.That…

EDITOR’S NOTE: Because enterprise learning involves multiple disciplines and perspectives, we regularly invite experts from other organizations to share insights. Here, Frances Kleven, Sr. Director of Core Customer Experience at LearnUpon, outlines a proven framework for customer academy success.   Why Customer Education Deserves a Blueprint What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think about customer education? Many organizations treat it as a reactive support function based on a handful of product walkthroughs, a series of setup tutorials, or a basic guided onboarding path. While these elements may be essential, they’re not enough to build long-term relationships.…

It’s time for the second dance: Rumba’s targeted reentry is coming up, with the second Cluster satellite expected to reenter the atmosphere between 18:20 and 21:45 CEST on 22 October 2025.   As its four identical satellites each come down, ESA’s 24-year Cluster mission gives us a farewell present in style with a unique, quadruple boost to reentry science. The unpredictability of most reentries makes it hard to observe and learn from them, despite reentries having become an everyday occurrence. ESA’s new targeted reentry technique determines the reentry time and location, making a reentry both safer and better observable. It…

If you know anything about stinging nettle, you know not to touch it. Its stems and leaves come equipped with needle-like hairs that easily detach from the plant and pierce into bare skin. The real rub is that these needle-like hairs also act like hypodermic needles, injecting a combination of chemicals into your skin resulting in an obnoxious itching sensation that can last for hours. So why would I suggest using it to make tea? Shouldn’t I do the responsible thing and advise you to keep your distance? Stinging nettle actually has a long history of being consumed. Recipes abound…

Brown dwarfs are notoriously difficult to find. These “failed stars” aren’t big enough to sustain nuclear fusion, and therefore aren’t as bright as more traditional main sequence stars. In fact, they’re nearly invisible in optical light, and faintly visible in infrared. But thanks to dozens of citizen scientists combing through archival infrared datasets from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), and a paper published in the Astronomical Journal detailing their work, we now have an additional set of over 3,000 candidate new brown dwarfs in our stellar neighborhood, more than doubling the total number found so far. The volunteers were…

This year I grew some forbidden black rice plants (Oryza sativa).  I don’t know what I am doing when growing rice, and I am certainly not in their preferred climate, so it was all a bit of an experiment. There is not much advice available for backyard rice growers, so I had to largely work this out myself which is why I am writing this blog post.  I had a few plants so thought I would do some comparisons, see what works better for me, and share the results.  Hopefully someone finds this useful.  If nothing else, recording this here is useful for…

This week is about emotional realism. Not cynicism. Not detachment. Not pretending you are “fine” while stress-eating mozzarella sticks at 11:30 at night and calling it self-care. Emotional realism means recognizing what actually nourishes you versus what merely distracts you long enough to postpone the conversation you do not want to have. Venus is the VIP this week, and she is moving into Cancer, the sign of emotional attachment, memory, comfort, family, vulnerability, and the people who know exactly how you take your coffee and where all your emotional bodies are buried. Venus in Cancer wants connection that feels safe…

Parasitic infections are a major public health problem. They affect the lives of millions of people worldwide, but the burden is not evenly distributed. In Sub-Saharan Africa, for example, parasitic infections affect around 60% of adults, while in Latin America they affect 30%.

  TDS under Section 194A TDS stands for Tax Deducted at Source. The government implements TDS as a method to gather tax funds when income is produced instead of waiting until the annual tax period. Under this provision any person who receives interest payments exceeding specific amounts is required to have tax deductions made by banks or tax payers prior to distributing the interest funds. This deducted amount is then deposited with the government as advance tax on the recipient’s behalf. For example, if you have ₹60,000 as interest from a fixed deposit in a year, and the bank’s TDS…

Meaning and Objective of the Scheme Under the Goods and Services Tax law the GST Composition Scheme operates as a streamlined taxation system for business owners. It is aimed at small businesses that want relief from the complex GST filing process.

We take the ability to write for granted. It is actually quite a complex non-linear activity driven by our goals and purpose. To understand this process and how AI can support it while you maintain ownership, it’s helpful to understand the cognitive activities of writing. Several cognitive models explain the writing process, and the core of most models is based on Flower and Hayes’ cognitive activities of writing (1981). The model identifies the mental operations that underlie writing as distinct activities: planning, translation (text production), and reviewing. Their framework also recognizes that writing does not occur in a vacuum. The…

The production of High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) water pipes using modern extrusion lines is a continuous, highly automated process. Modern systems prioritize wall-thickness precision, energy efficiency, and material homogenization. Here is the step-by-step production process: 1. Raw Material Handling and Feeding​The process begins with HDPE resin pellets. Modern machines utilize a Gravimetric Feeding System. This system weighs the material in real-time, ensuring a precise mass flow rate. If the line speed changes, the feeder automatically adjusts the resin intake to maintain a constant weight-per-meter ratio, which is critical for meeting international pressure standards.​2. Plasticization (The Extruder)​The pellets enter the Single-Screw Extruder.…

LDPE (Low Density): This material has a high degree of short and long-chain branching. This means the polymer chains do not pack together very tightly in a crystal structure. It is more “open” and less dense, which results in a material that is highly flexible and ductile. While the industry often uses LLDPE (Linear Low-Density Polyethylene) for tanks, the “Low Density” family is preferred for several structural and manufacturing reasons: ​A. Rotational Molding Compatibility ​Most domestic and industrial water tanks are produced via Rotational Molding (Rotomolding). In this process, resin powder is placed inside a hollow mold, which is then…

  Introduction GST (Goods and Services Tax) is India’s biggest tax reform. It replaced many different taxes with just one. This helped make tax easier for businesses. But it also made it important for businesses to follow all rules carefully. When a business breaks a GST rule or does not follow the system properly, the tax department can take action. This action is sent in writing. This document is referred to as a GST order. It’s more than just a letter or a warning. It is a legal decision. All businesses registered under GST must comprehend the nature of a…

  Introduction to GST Cancellation and Suspension Orders in India GST registration is mandatory for businesses that meet the turnover criteria set under the Goods and Services Tax laws in India.

Simone de Beauvoir (1908 – 1986) It’s been a few months since my last Philosophy blog, which was about the Sagittarian Philosopher Spinoza.  In reviewing the series, I was astonished to find that I started it in January 2020, in the first year of my philosophical studies, with Rene Descartes for Aries.  For those of you who find the subject tedious, you’ll be glad to know I only have two more on the agenda (Aquarius and Pisces).  But this one belongs to the Existentialist Simone de Beauvoir. Birth Chart Simone was born under a Sun in Capricorn.  We have her…

Last year, we spoke with Gláucia Silva following the publication of her widely discussed paper exploring new ways to engage students with plants through pop culture. Her work, linking botany with cultural references, sparked conversations far beyond the plant science community, reaching educators, students, and curious readers around the world.Now, one year on, we caught up with her again to see what happened next. In this follow-up interview, she reflects on the impact of the “Taylor Method”, the role of emotion in plant awareness, and why creativity might be one of the most powerful tools we have to connect people with…

Some of the apes at Leipzig Zoo have been enrolled in cognitive experiments for nearly two decades. Not continuously — participation is always voluntary — but repeatedly, study after study, across a research career that spans a chimpanzee’s middle age. One individual appears in 122 published studies. The average, across all 81 apes in the dataset, is nearly 40.That single fact reveals the central problem in great ape cognition research. These are the animals closest to us in evolutionary time. Pan troglodytes and Pan paniscus diverged from our lineage roughly six million years ago. But they are rare, protected, and…

October 6, 2020 I have been cooking with plenty of different kinds of rices for the past few years. When the last of the precious Burma Black Rice (I had got from my Pondicherry trip early this year) showed signs of infestation, the last thought on my mind was to chuck it. Determined to fight the battle between insects v/s me, I had decided to salvage as many grains as possible till the last grain. So I did. Without bothering to make any Dosas, Idly etc like I do out of habit. What you see are Burma Black Rice Gondh…

(Photo: Ateneo VAMR Laboratory)For young Filipinos, the Martial Law era — those dark years from 1972 to 1981 that cast a long shadow until 1986 — is not a lived memory but a chapter in the nation’s history often encountered only at a distance.

However, these actions are not allowed without reason or process. The powers of search and seizure are governed by strict legal provisions and can only be exercised in specific situations. This blog explains what search and seizure under GST means, how it works, and…

    Introduction GST registration is a legal requirement for businesses that cross the prescribed annual turnover limit or plan to sell through online marketplaces. A critical part of this process is declaring your GST address the location from which your business operates. This address gets recorded in your GST certificate and becomes your official business location in the government records. But what if your business is small and you operate from home? Quite frequently, freelancers, small sellers, and online entrepreneurs are wondering whether they can obtain a GST number on their home address. The answer is yes It is…

Introduction For a long time, GST registration felt like a speed-breaker for new businesses. Clients would wait a week or more before the GSTIN received the invoice although the business idea was ready, clients had been lined up, and invoices were drafted. It represented wasted time, sluggish cash flow and customer and vendor onboarding. From 1 November 2025, this has changed in a very big way. The Government, through Notification No. 18/2025 – Central Tax, has added to the CGST Rules, Rule 9A and Rule 14A. These provisions combined provide a fast-track GST registration regime where eligible and low risk…

GST Registration in 2025: A System Finally Built to Reduce Delays GST registration has always felt like a guessing game. You upload documents, wait for updates, and hope the officer doesn’t ask for something new. That changes from 1 November 2025, when a new set of rules came into effect. These changes bring in two core ideas:(1) registration can be granted electronically when the system sees the applicant as low-risk, and(2) small B2B taxpayers get a separate, optional route with its own conditions.The new framework is built around Rule 9A and Rule 14A, and it affects every step from the…

Have you ever felt an ancient, untamed force stir within you? A longing to break free from the noise of the screens & schedules, to step outside and to feel the earth beneath your feet. To return to something deeper—something ancestral?This force has a name: Wild Woman.Clarissa Pinkola Estés, in her book Women Who Run with the Wolves, writes:”A healthy woman is much like a wolf—robust, chock-full, strong life force, life-giving, territorially aware, inventive, loyal, roving. Yet, separation from the wildish nature causes a woman’s personality to become meager, thin, ghostly, spectral.”To be wild does not mean to be unruly,…

Meaning of ShivaWhen we say “Shiva,” there are two fundamental aspects that we are referring to. The word “Shiva” means literally, “that which is not.”Shiva is NothingnessToday, modern science is proving to us that everything comes from nothing and goes back to nothing. The basis of existence and the fundamental quality of the cosmos is vast nothingness. The galaxies are just a small happening – a sprinkling. The rest is all vast empty space, which is referred to as Shiva. That is the womb from which everything is born, and that is the oblivion into which everything is sucked back.…

For years, instructional designers have leaned on color psychology as one of the most reliable levers to make eLearning stick. Blue for focus. Green for retention. Red for urgency.

usgsbiml:Parasite.  Nest parasite to be exact.  Formerly in the genus Psithyrus, these bees are now in the genus Bombus, with the rest of the bumble bees.  The idea is that they are just bumble bees that have decided that it is easier to invade other bumble bee nests and disable or kill the queen and have the old queen’s daughters do their bidding….easier than doing all that pollen collecting themselves.  This species appears to be associated with B. perplexus and B. rufocinctus, though there is certainly much more to learn and likely additional hosts.  This male came from the State College…

My amazing mother who is now 80, came to celebrate my 50th birthday. I should already be dead. I am a medical anomaly. Today my doctor said to me, “You are the only Multiple Myeloma patient I know of who has survived this long without medical treatment. It is unheard of.” I am preparing for my next transfusion in a few day’s time. The decision to have regular, 8-weekly blood transfusions was one we reached together almost 6 years ago. The donor blood doesn’t stop the cancer in my bone marrow from developing but it tops up my haemoglobin which…

The weather in Maryland this weekend is beautiful.  Cool crisp nights with today’s high in the low 70’s.  So, last night I turned on our whole house attic fan and pulled in all that crisp cool air.  Unfortunately, I also pulled in tons of pollen from all the flowers in my wife’s garden (she loves her flowers!). This morning I woke up to a scratchy throat, completely clogged sinuses, watery eyes and non-stop sneezing.  Did I immediately reach for my bottle of Antihistamines – NO!  I have an easier, healthier, and quicker solution with no toxic side effects. Instead, I…

5 Key Components Of Performance Management Training—Infographic Effective performance management training helps managers consistently align, evaluate, and develop their team members. Specifically, L&D leaders should focus on creating practical and repeatable behaviors that boost performance over time, rather than relying on compliance-based evaluations.

– Sponsored content – (Kevin Ku, Pexels.com) From Lurkers to a Lively Subreddit Many brands and creators discover Reddit the same way: a post goes mildly viral, traffic spikes for a few days, and then everything goes quiet. The platform can feel like a lottery instead of a repeatable channel. Turning that passive, one-time traffic into an active and loyal community requires deliberate strategy, consistent engagement, and, in some cases, the use of third-party growth tools such as pre-aged accounts and paid engagement services. This article walks through how some teams combine organic community building with tactics like buying Reddit…

Al-Thurayya, also known as the Rainy Ones, is the 3rd Lunar Mansion which is associated with the Pleiades. The Pleiades’ principle star is Alcyone, which is also the Mansion’s determinant fixed star. “The Arab Picatrix tells us though, that when the Moon is in al-Turajja, one should make talismans for sea travellers to free them from harm … Sometimes one can create talisman for the success of alchemical operations, … and to cause love between married couples. According to Pliny, Azoraye is for the acquisition of all good things. One should make a figure of a seated woman dressed in…

One: the article I mentioned writing last year for the Old Farmer’s Almanac Garden Guide is out; print copies have been available on their website for a few months. I’ve also heard of print copies being available in actual stores, though I have yet to witness this in the wild. Two: you’ve probably figured this out already, but I think I’m done writing the blog. Or at least I’m going to stop feeling bad about not writing posts, which probably amounts to the same thing in the long run. (It leaves the door open in case I later decide that…

The yeti, as every schoolboy knows, was introduced to the outside world in 1921 when Charles Howard-Bury, leader of the first Everest Reconnaissance Expedition reported a series of footprints in the Lhakpa Pass. Although he thought they were made by a “loping grey wolf”, his sherpas identified them as belonging to a metoh-kangmi. To this the Calcutta journalist, Harry Newman gave the whimsical, and no doubt very inaccurate translation of “abominable snowman” – thereby casting a cloud over the issue. After all, logic tells us that the presence of an unknown primate in the Himalayan wilderness cannot…
