MIL-OSI New Zealand: Elles Road roundabout, Invercargill, gets its fourth leg

Source: New Zealand Transport Agency

Invercargill’s Clifton industrial area will get a new, safer and more efficient access point from next week.

New Zealand Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) advises the new access off the Elles Road roundabout, across the recently upgraded KiwiRail level crossing, will be available from Monday 28 July. It will be the key route to the Invercargill City Council (ICC) Pound, ICC Wastewater Treatment Plant and Freight Haulage.

“The existing access via Lake Street, about 300 metres south of the Elles Road roundabout will be closed,” says Jason Forbes, Senior Project Manager for NZTA in Southland.

The additional access takes the Elles Road roundabout to four legs (as seen in the aerial map below).

Mr Forbes says there will be signs advising of the closure of Lake St ahead of 28 July and people should find the new, wider route preferable to Lake St.

“Lake St is attracting increasing numbers of large trucks and with further developments in this area now underway, this traffic growth means this intersection is no longer fit for purpose,” Mr Forbes says.

“The new access off the Elles Road roundabout will have new bells and barrier arms to protect road users at the rail line, there will also be a separated cycle path adjacent to the new road which will have automatic gates at the rail crossing to protect cyclists and pedestrians.”

MIL-OSI USA: ICE Boston arrest results in conviction for Dominican alien who illegally reentered US after deportation

Source: US Immigration and Customs Enforcement

BOSTON – The ICE Boston arrest of an illegal Dominican national unlawfully residing in Lawrence resulted in his conviction for illegally reentering the United States after deportation. Santo Beato Aybar-Aybar, 49, pleaded guilty to the charge June 16 at the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts.

“Santo Beato Aybar-Aybar repeatedly displayed a blatant disregard for U.S. immigration laws, and that resulted in his conviction for illegally reentering the country after deportation,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde. “We will not stand idly by as criminals subvert our immigration laws and take refuge in our neighborhoods. ICE Boston will continue to prioritize public safety by arresting and removing illegal alien offenders from our New England communities.”

Aybar-Aybar has been previously deported from the U.S. on three separate occasions, most recently on Sept. 21, 2021. Sometime after his 2021 removal, Aybar-Aybar illegally reentered the U.S. without being inspected, admitted or paroled by a U.S. immigration official.

Aybar-Aybar faces up to 20 years in prison, three years of supervised release and a fine of up to $250,000 at his sentencing, which is scheduled for Sept. 11. Furthermore, he is subject to deportation upon completion of any sentence imposed.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts is prosecuting this case.

Members of the public can report crimes and suspicious activity by dialing 866-DHS-2-ICE (866-347-2423) or completing the online tip form.

Source: New South Wales – News

Six teenagers have been arrested after a pursuit through metropolitan Adelaide and the arson of an Aldinga Beach house this morning.

About 12.50 am Monday 21 July Police and emergency services were called to a house at Pebble Court after reports of fire in the garage and house. Fortunately the occupants were not home at the time. MFS were quickly on scene and extinguished the blaze.

When police arrived, they saw a Subaru station wagon leaving the street. Police recognised the car as a stolen vehicle which had been stolen from a Mitchell Park home last week. Police attempted to stop the car, with the driver refusing to pull over.

The car was pursued by patrols along with the assistance from PolAir and Dog Operations Unit on South Road, along the Southern Expressway, through to the eastern suburbs before making its way to Two Wells where the tyres were successfully spiked by patrols at Port Wakefield Road and Mallala Road.

Six youths ran from the car and were arrested on Artisan Road with the assistance of PD Duke without incident.

MIL-OSI Security: ICE Arrests Criminal Illegal Alien Who Concealed and Abused Body of a Missing Woman After Sanctuary City Judge Freed Illegal Alien onto Streets of Chicago

Source: US Department of Homeland Security

President Trump and Secretary Noem stand with the victims of illegal alien crime

WASHINGTON — On July 19, 2025, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers in Chicago arrested Luis Mendoza-Gonzalez, a 52-year-old criminal illegal alien from Mexico, who was charged in April with concealing the body of a missing woman in a storage container on his yard for two months, abusing her corpse, and obstruction of justice.

Waukegan Police Department officers discovered the body of 37-year-old victim Megan Bos in a container in Mendoza’s yard in April after she had been reported missing on March 9, 2025.

Her body was found decapitated and in a bleach storage container by officers. Mendoza was charged in April. However, Lake County Judge Randie Bruno released him from custody at the conclusion of his court appearance, where he was immediately allowed to freely roam the Chicago streets.

This criminal illegal alien is currently being held at Lake County Jail in Waukegan, Illinois.

“Everyday ICE is arresting sickos like criminal illegal alien, Luis Mendoza-Gonzalez, and stopping them from terrorizing Americans. This depraved alien was charged with concealing the body of a missing woman in a storage container for months and abusing her corpse,” said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “It is absolutely repulsive that a judge freed this monster and allowed him to walk free on Illinois’s streets after allegedly committing such a heinous crime. Under President Trump and Secretary Noem, Megan Bos and her family will have justice.”

Secretary Noem relaunched the Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement (VOICE) office. The VOICE office was shuttered by the previous administration, which left victims of alien crime without access to many key support services and resources. The office was first launched in 2017 by the Trump administration as a dedicated resource for those who have been victimized by crime that has a nexus to immigration.

If you or a loved one has been impacted by a crime committed by an illegal alien, you are not alone. Call 1-855-48-VOICE (1-855-488-6423).

MIL-OSI United Kingdom: Fundamental lethality shift for British Army spearheaded by novel targeting tech ‘ASGARD’

Press release

Fundamental lethality shift for British Army spearheaded by novel targeting tech ‘ASGARD’

British Army showcase new technology that improves the accuracy of targeting enemies and reduces decision-making time for strikes.
A pioneering digital targeting web, called ASGARD, has been showcased this week, following successful trials by British soldiers deployed on NATO’s eastern flank. The project will enable soldiers to rapidly find and strike enemy targets at greater distances than ever before.

Following the Strategic Defence Review, the Army will deliver a tenfold increase in lethality over the next ten years by harnessing firepower, surveillance technology, autonomy, digital connectivity, and data – leading the way in NATO in its use of technology to change how it fights, improving speed and accuracy. ASGARD will exploit AI and novel communications networks, providing rapid targeting and decision-support to personnel.

The Ministry of Defence is committing funding for the next phase of ASGARD’s development. This will allow the Army to expedite its lethality and deepen its links with society through partnership with British industry, delivering on the Government’s Plan for Change by keeping the UK secure at home and strong abroad.

Minister for Defence Procurement and Industry, Rt Hon Maria Eagle MP said:

We are learning the lessons from Ukraine so our frontline personnel can strike further and faster and maintain advantage over our adversaries.

ASGARD exemplifies the vision of the Strategic Defence Review, with speed and world-class capability achieved by bringing together military, Government and industry professionals with a focus on rapid frontline delivery.

ASGARD forms part of the work to create a wider digital targeting web across the UK’s Armed Forces by 2027, backed by more than £1 billion in funding. It will better connect military weapons systems and allow battlefield decisions for targeting enemy threats to be made and executed faster.

ASGARD was showcased this week to international allies and industry partners in London, with participants shown the capability in action, including its overwhelming effect on adversaries.

Chief of the General Staff, General Sir Roly Walker said:

Project ASGARD proves we can do things differently. It’s not just a pathfinder for transformation; it’s a transformation in how we find, fund, and fight with cutting-edge capabilities.

ASGARD helps double our lethality and exponentially reduces the time to see, decide, and strike. What took hours, now takes minutes. Today, the UK possesses a similar Recce-Strike system to the one used by Ukraine to maul Russian forces in the Donbas. That system now sits at the heart of our Forward Land Forces in Estonia.

We are particularly proud of the collaboration between tacticians and technicians, between Defence and Industry, and the support of and to small and medium enterprises and jobs across the UK.

Using a novel acquisition approach, ASGARD was first announced by the Defence Secretary in October 2024 and progressed at an unprecedented pace, with contracts awarded in January 2025 and a prototype capability deployed only four months later for NATO Exercise Hedgehog in Estonia. ASGARD’s capabilities were successfully tested, increasing the UK and NATO Armies’ lethality by improving targeting precision and significantly cutting decision-making time.

This quick turn-around was achieved through a collaboration between industry technicians and military tradecraft experts, bringing together a consortium of military, civil service and industry partners to deliver the best possible product in the shortest amount of time.

The Strategic Defence Review recommended a shift towards greater use of autonomy and Artificial Intelligence within the UK’s conventional forces, facilitated by a Digital Targeting Web. The next phase of ASGARD will deliver on this, focusing on enhancing the lethality at the Corps and Divisional levels as the Army’s contribution to the Defence Targeting Web. It will exploit the Digital Decision Accelerators from the Defence Commercial framework to harness the talents across a broader array of industry partners to improve core capability.

MIL-OSI: New Prediction Emerges Around Elon Musk’s Next Big Move. Presentation Out Now.

Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

Austin, TX, July 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Could a private meeting featuring Elon Musk signal a major move for Starlink?

According to a newly published briefing by bestselling author and entrepreneur James Altucher, the answer may be yes. The presentation outlines three overlooked clues—each pulled from publicly available sources—that Altucher believes are converging on August 13, 2025, as a potentially historic milestone.

A Meeting That Sparked New Questions

Altucher opens his briefing by citing a recent private gathering with Musk, and industry insiders.

While details of the meeting have not been made public, Altucher suggests the takeaways coincide with a growing number of statements made by Musk and his executives in recent months.

A Timeline That Can’t Be Ignored

In his presentation, Altucher highlights August 13, 2025, as a key date to watch.

“After this date, the window could slam shut—and you may never have this same chance again,” he writes.

He calls it “the moment Elon’s been quietly preparing for—building toward it piece by piece over nearly two decades”.

Altucher: ‘Pay Attention Before the World Catches Up’

Altucher concludes the presentation with a call to awareness—not speculation.

“You don’t need to be an expert in satellites or data to understand what’s happening here,” he writes. “You just need to see the signs and act while most people are still asleep”.

“This is about recognizing a moment in history—before it becomes history,” he adds.

About James Altucher

James Altucher is a bestselling author, entrepreneur, and tech commentator. He’s founded or co-founded more than 20 businesses, and his books—Choose Yourself, Reinvent Yourself, and Skip the Line—have sold over 1 million copies worldwide. Altucher’s work has appeared in The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, Forbes, and Business Insider. He’s also been featured on CNBC, Fox Business, and other major media outlets.

TEHRAN, July 20 (Xinhua) — Iran and three European countries — France, Germany and Britain, known as the E3 group — have agreed to resume talks on Tehran’s nuclear program, the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported Sunday.

As the agency reports, citing an anonymous “informed source,” Iran and the E3 are holding consultations on the date and place of the talks.

The upcoming talks are expected to take place at the level of deputy foreign ministers.

Since September 2024, Iran and the E3 have held several rounds of talks on Iran’s nuclear program and the lifting of sanctions against it.

In recent months, three European countries have threatened Tehran with triggering the snapback mechanism under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, signed in 2015 between Iran and world powers. The mechanism allows other parties to restore all international sanctions if Iran fails to comply with the agreement.

Tehran has repeatedly warned that it will respond decisively to the E3’s actions if this mechanism is launched. –0–

MIL-OSI: Early Signups, Bigger Profits: Cloud Mining Platform, AIXA Miner Expands Its Contracts
Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

DENVER, Colorado, July 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — As cryptocurrency prices continue an upward trend—driven by Bitcoin’s recent rally past the $115,000 mark—cloud mining platforms are reevaluating how they onboard new users, particularly those entering the market amid increased competition for block rewards. In response, providers are introducing time-sensitive contract options designed to improve early access efficiency and reward entry-level participation with $20 bonus.

One such example comes from AIXA Miner, which recently adjusted its cloud mining contract structure to accommodate a broader segment of users entering during this bullish market cycle.

This development reflects a larger pattern within the industry, as cloud mining continues to evolve beyond static contract models toward more dynamic, reward-calibrated options. A 2025 report from Statista estimates that the global cloud mining market is on track to surpass $7.3 billion by 2028, driven largely by first-time users seeking to earn passive income without directly operating mining hardware.

“We’re seeing a measurable increase in first-time contract activations this quarter—many of which are coming from regions that were previously underrepresented in cloud mining,” said Amir Nadeem, Head of Product Modeling at AIXA Miner. “The design focus now is on flexible entry points that align with rising energy costs, blockchain congestion, and onboarding demand.”

AIXA’s recent move includes tiered contract durations and automated yield recalibration based on network fees and power availability. These modifications follow the introduction of AI-backed hash allocation systems earlier this month, allowing platforms to better manage resource deployment across different contract volumes and time zones.

Industry analysts note that entry-level participation is becoming more important not just for accessibility but for decentralization. As mining becomes more capital-intensive at the industrial scale, cloud mining provides a counterbalance by opening access to retail users—particularly in emerging economies with limited access to crypto infrastructure.

Additionally, the integration of green blockchain principles is influencing contract design. Energy inputs tied to clean energy crypto sources—such as solar, hydro, and wind—are being tracked more transparently and in some cases weighted into reward schedules. AIXA’s mining operations, for example, span facilities in the U.S., Southeast Asia, and South America, all selected for renewable grid compatibility and regional power subsidies.

From a sustainability standpoint, this represents a shift from traditional mining frameworks. The AIXA MIner’s Centre for Alternative Finance notes that nearly 40% of global Bitcoin mining is now powered by renewables, but the disparity in efficiency remains large across geographies. Cloud-based platforms that incorporate these considerations early in the user lifecycle are positioned to offer both ethical and financial advantages.

For users signing up amid this market cycle, the timing is particularly relevant. As network difficulty adjusts in response to increased transaction activity, earlier contracts tend to yield more favourable mining results, especially when tied to AI-optimised deployment strategies. These dynamics are pushing platforms to prioritise contract activation windows and improve time-to-reward for new users.

“What used to be a static engagement—sign up, lock capital, and wait—is becoming far more responsive,” added Nadeem. “It’s not just about passive income anymore; it’s about smarter income.”

As crypto mining continues to intersect with retail participation, environmental impact, and institutional demand, cloud mining platforms are under increasing pressure to adapt quickly and responsibly. Updates to user onboarding and contract modelling mark one of several steps toward meeting those expectations.

MIL-Evening Report: Does play belong in primary school? New research suggests teachers are not sure

Source: The Conversation (Au and NZ) – By Katy Meeuwissen, Lecturer in Early Childhood and Primary Education, University of Canberra

Jon Challicom/ Getty Images

Play is one of the most important parts of early childhood education in Australia.

We know children learn about the world through play and it helps them build creativity and independence.

There is also broad agreement among early childhood educators and policymakers about the importance of play from birth to five years.

But once children start school, there is less certainty. Despite growing research about the importance of play in primary school, play is not often used for learning in these years.

Our new study with Australian primary teachers highlights significant confusion about the role of play in their schools.

Play can benefit older kids

There is nothing to suggest the importance of play suddenly stops when children reach school age.

Research shows play can support learning well into the primary years, helping students develop critical thinking, problem-solving and social skills.

Recent studies even show play has learning benefits well beyond childhood. Young adults (aged 19–25) who engage in regular play have shown improved emotional intelligence and resilience.

What do we mean by play?

When we are talking about play in primary school, it is more than just playground time during recess and lunch.

Play is what children do naturally, whereas play-based learning is when teachers use that natural playfulness as a teaching tool. Teachers will deliberately incorporate various types of play with specific learning goals and varying levels of adult guidance.

For example, children might explore mathematical concepts such as geometry and spatial reasoning through LEGO construction. Teachers would guide discovery of patterns, measurements and problem-solving, and then step back to allow students to be creative.

There is also evidence play can support literacy, numeracy and other academic goals, because it supports attention, memory and planning skills that underpin academic learning.

Research shows it can also help maintain students’ enjoyment of and engagement in their studies.

So when used effectively, it could be used across the school curriculum.

Our research

To better understand what teachers think about play and why they hold these views, we surveyed 238 teachers across Australia primary schools. Teachers ranged from those teaching the first year of primary school through to Year 6.

Most of the teachers were from public schools. We used an online questionnaire and recruited participants through email and social media.

Teachers’ different views on play

The results revealed some inconsistencies in teachers’ views.

Teachers strongly agreed play benefits children’s development. More than three-quarters (77%) strongly agreed students develop social skills through play, with similar numbers supporting play’s role in emotional, physical and language development.

One teacher described play as “magic” and “where real learning happens”.

However, only 52% strongly agreed students develop academic skills during play, revealing uncertainty about play’s educational value. As another teacher told us:

Play is something that children do and it’s fun for them, however, [it] should be out of school. School is for learning.

Some teachers still viewed play as separate from learning, with 61% agreeing that “play is a necessary break from learning” – suggesting they see play and learning as distinct entities rather than integrated.

Adding to this confusion, teachers often used the terms “play” and “play-based learning” interchangeably, despite these being different concepts.

How should play-based learning be structured?

Even when teachers valued play in principle, they struggled to provide time for it in their classrooms. Teachers reported feeling caught between covering mandated content and providing meaningful play experiences. As one teacher told us:

Play is fantastic for children but a challenge when there is so much limited time to cover such a huge curriculum.

Teachers were also divided about their role in children’s play. Should they structure it? Leave kids alone? Supervise but not interfere?

Our analysis revealed several distinct approaches, from hands-off supervision to active involvement. This reveals confusion about best practice (the research suggests different approaches can work, depending on the context).

What can we do instead?

Our research suggest there is missed opportunity when it comes to structuring play as part of learning in primary schools.

To address this, we need several changes. Teacher education programs should include training in practical ways to use play as a teaching tool. For example, how to teach science concepts through games and experiments that feel like play to children.

Professional development should also help existing teachers understand how to structure meaningful play that supports the curriculum.

At a policy level, we also need better alignment between the early education and primary years, to ensure play does not disappear at the school gate.

MIL-Evening Report: Hold up, humans. Ants figured out medicine, farming and engineering long before we did

Source: The Conversation (Au and NZ) – By Tanya Latty, Associate Professor in Entomology, University of Sydney

Think back to a time you helped someone move a heavy object, such as a couch. While at first the task may have appeared simple, it actually required a suite of advanced behaviours.

The job needed verbal commands for social coordination (“pivot!”) and anticipation of near-future events (moving other furniture out of the way). It also required a clear, shared vision of the final goal (which room to take the couch to).

It’s a small but satisfying example of human cooperation. But before we all get too pleased with ourselves, consider that ants – creatures with tiny brains and no capacity for speech – routinely pull off feats that rival, and sometimes exceed, our own.

Understanding ant intelligence

Earth is literally crawling with ants. Scientists estimate there are at least 20 quadrillion ants on Earth. That’s 20 followed by 15 zeros – more ants than stars in our galaxy!

These incredible insects are amongst the most successful organisms on the planet. Part of the success comes from an ability to form complex societies, ranging from a few individuals to millions. And those societies, or colonies, are remarkably co-operative.

Take, for example, ants’ abilities to move large food items. To do it, they mobilise teams of dozens – or even hundreds – of fellow workers. Together, they efficiently work together to transport the load back to the nest.

Longhorn crazy ants (Paratrechina longicornis) are even known to clear debris from a path before a heavy object arrives – seemingly anticipating its trajectory and preparing the way.

One experiment pit longhorn crazy ants against humans, all tasked with moving T-shaped objects (scaled to body size) through tight spaces. In some trials, the human teams were not permitted to speak or use gestures.

And the result? Ants performed better in larger groups compared to smaller ones, showing the clear benefits of collective action. In contrast, human performance did not improve with group size. And when communication was restricted, human performance declined as group size increased.

All this highlights how ants rely on collective intelligence, without the need for central control or sophisticated cognition.

Expert farmers

Humanity’s invention of agriculture 12,000 years ago is understandably hailed as one of our greatest achievements.

But leaf cutter ants beat us to it. These ants (from the species Atta and Acromyrmex) evolved to undertake large-scale agriculture about 55 million years ago.

These ants cut and transport fresh leaves not to eat directly, but to feed a fungus that serves as their main food source.

This evolutionary partnership allows the ants to feed colonies with populations in the millions.

Remarkably, leaf cutter ants have also evolved a form of biological pest control to protect their crops from bacteria. Some worker ants patrol the gardens, detecting infected sections of the fungus. Then they apply antibiotics produced by bacteria that live on their bodies.

What’s more, many ant species farm aphids and other sap-sucking insects.

As these farmed insects feed on plant sap, they excrete a sugary liquid the ants eagerly collect. In return, ants serve as bodyguards, defending their tiny livestock from predators such as ladybirds and lacewings.

In some species, queen ants gently carry sap-sucking insects in their jaws as they fly off to start new colonies. Fossilised ants preserved in amber suggest this behaviour evolved up to 20 million years ago, long before humans domesticated animals.

Ant medicine

Medical care may seem like a distinctly human innovation. But several ant species have evolved sophisticated ways to treat injuries.

When a Florida carpenter ant (Camponotus floridanus) is injured during a battle between colonies, its nest-mates will amputate a damaged limb to prevent infection from spreading. Ants receiving this battlefield care are more likely to survive than ants left untreated.

Some ants can also detect infection and treat infected wounds by cleaning them and applying antimicrobial secretions from specialised glands.

Master builders

Some ant species are known to literally put their bodies on the line for the colony.

Army ants (Eciton burchellii) join their bodies together to form structures. These include bridges across gaps on the forest floor, and “scaffolds” across steep terrain to prevent other ants from slipping.

Even the nest is made of hundreds of thousands of ants joined together, complete with tunnels and chambers housing the larvae and the queen. The entire structure is packed up and rebuilt each day, after the colony emigrates a few hundred metres into the forest.

Weaver ants (Oecophylla smaragdina), meanwhile, self-assemble into rope ladders to span vertical gaps.

They also form a line of workers that pull leaves together in treetops to form nests. Once the leaves are winched into place, other ants arrive with ant larvae in their jaws. Each larva produces a tiny blob of silk which the ants use to glue the leaves together.

Fire ants (Solenopsis invicta), a major pest species, owes its invasive success partly to a unique method of dispersal.

When their underground nests are flooded by rain, the ants join together into a huge raft which floats on a layer of buoyant larvae. These rafts can ride floodwaters in safety for hundreds of kilometres, until the ants reach dry land.

Lessons for humanity?

Humans rightly take pride in our greatest achievements – agriculture, medicine, engineering and building civilisations. But remarkably, ants mastered these innovations millions of years before we did.

Ants may be tiny – but by working together they can build complex societies and solve many problems. They might even teach humans a thing or two.

MIL-Evening Report: Is spinal cord stimulation safe? Does it work? Here’s what you need to know if you have back pain
Source: The Conversation (Au and NZ) – By Caitlin Jones, Postdoctoral Research Associate in Musculoskeletal Health, University of Sydney

AsiaVision/Getty

Spinal cord stimulators are electrical devices that are surgically implanted in the body to treat long-term pain. They have a battery pack and leads that deliver electrical impulses directly to the spinal cord. The devices are thought to work by providing electrical impulses that interfere with how the brain senses pain.

Spinal cord stimulators are mainly used to treat chronic back pain, especially when other less invasive treatments have not worked. They also aim to reduce people’s reliance on risky pain medicines. These include opioids, which research shows are ineffective and harmful for low-back pain.

But research, including our own, shows spinal cord stimulators work no better than a placebo. And they can also carry risks.

Do they work?

In a 2023 Cochrane review, researchers reviewed data from 13 randomised controlled trials on low-back pain and found no benefits in the short and medium term. These international reviews draw together the most robust evidence to provide a detailed summary of what we know on a particular topic.

Only one of the trials in the review tested efficacy in the longer term (six months). That trial found no benefits of spinal cord stimulation.

An earlier Cochrane review looked at the evidence of spinal cord stimulation for chronic pain in general, including for neck pain. Reviewers looked at 15 randomised controlled trials and couldn’t be certain about its benefits, largely due to the quality and reliability of the available trials.

Are there side effects?

Aside from disappointing results for pain relief, there are risks and side effects to consider.

We co-authored an analysis of 520 adverse events reported to Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). We found 79% of reported events were rated as severe, with 13% life-threatening. The same research found 80% of events required surgery to correct.

Our recent analysis in the Medical Journal of Australia looked at data from private health insurers. These cover 90% of spinal cord stimulation implants in Australia. Five major insurers, which covered 76% of privately insured people, contributed de-identified data.

We found about one-quarter of people who had a spinal cord stimulator implanted needed corrective surgery afterwards. These surgeries occurred within a median of about 17 months. This indicates these surgeries are not routine or expected interventions, such as to replace batteries, which are meant to last five to ten years.

Our previous research shows the sorts of reasons for corrective surgery. These include to replace a malfunctioning device, or the person was in more pain, had an infection, or a puncture of the delicate tissues covering the spinal cord.

However, even our latest findings are likely to underestimate the risk of these devices.

Sometimes the lead delivering the electrical current moves away from the spinal cord to elsewhere in the body. This requires surgery to reposition the lead, but does not necessarily require new hardware, such as a brand new lead. So this type of corrective surgery is not counted in the data from the private health insurance companies.

How much does it cost?

We found spinal cord stimulators cost about A$55,000 per patient, including the device, its insertion, and managing any associated additional surgeries.

For people who only had a “trial” – where the leads are implanted temporarily but the battery pack remains outside the body – this cost was about $14,000 per patient.

These figures do not include any out-of-pocket costs.

What do regulators say about the devices?

In 2022 the TGA began a review of spinal cord stimulators on the market because of safety and performance concerns.

As a result, several devices were removed from the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods – that is, they were banned from use in Australia, but existing stock could still be used.

The rest of the devices had conditions imposed, such as the manufacturers being required to collect and report safety data to the TGA at regular time points.

Should I do my own online research?

Yes, but be careful. Unfortunately not all online information about spinal cord stimulators is correct.

Look for sites independent of those who manufacture or implant these devices.

Government agencies, health departments and universities that have no financial interests in this area may be a better option.

The Cochrane Library is also a reliable and independent source for trustworthy health information.

What shall I ask my doctor?

The Australian health department provides useful advice for consumers about medical implants.

It says medical implants “are considered higher-risk therapeutic goods, and the decision to get one should not be taken lightly”. It recommends asking your health professional these questions:
- do I really need this medical implant?
- what are the risks/benefits?
- is the medical implant approved?
- where can I get more information?
- what happens if I experience an adverse event?
What else could I do for my back pain?

There are other treatment options that are effective and have fewer risks than spinal cord stimulation.

For example, education about how to manage your pain yourself, exercise, cognitive behavioural therapy (a type of psychological therapy), and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines (such as ibuprofen) all have solid evidence to back them. All offer benefits that are not outweighed by their potential risks.

Australian research has shown other types of therapy – such as sensorimotor retraining and cognitive functional therapy – are also effective. You can discuss these and other options with your health professional.

Spinal cord stimulation is a good example of a treatment that got ahead of the evidence. Although the devices have been around since the 1960s, we’ve only had reliable trials to test whether they work in recent years.

Everyone wants to find ways to help people with chronic pain, but we must ensure medical care is grounded in reliable science.

MIL-Evening Report: Federal election feel like ages ago? Parliament is now back. Here’s your political refresher

Source: The Conversation (Au and NZ) – By Jill Sheppard, Senior Lecturer, School of Politics and International Relations, Australian National University

Tracey Nearmy/Getty

Despite many pre-election predictions, the 48th Australian parliament looks quite similar to the 47th. The Labor Party has greater representation than before: 94 Members of the House of Representatives (up from 77) and 29 Senators (up from 26).

The Coalition’s numbers were famously smashed at the election, and will be represented by 43 Members and 27 Senators.

Despite the landslide electoral victory, Labor’s parliamentary position is not materially improved. It retains a majority in the House of Representatives, but Prime Minister Anthony Albanese faces the problem of finding jobs to keep such a large backbench occupied. Restless politicians reliably create havoc for their leaders (just ask Keir Starmer).

In the Senate, Labor has more possible paths to a majority, but none is particularly pretty. Pre-election, the government required 12 additional senators to support its legislation. Often this support came from the Coalition, with the crossbench bypassed entirely, as in the case of political donation reforms.

Other reforms, including workplace relations, were passed by a combination of Greens and independent senators.

Labor can achieve a majority (38 votes) in the new Senate by negotiating with either the Greens or the Coalition. If neither is forthcoming, Labor can then turn to a disparate group of crossbenchers: four One Nation Senators, plus Fatima Payman, Jacqui Lambie, Ralph Babet and David Pocock.

Clearing the decks

How the new Senate configuration affects Labor’s legislative agenda depends on what exactly that agenda looks like.

Labor went into the 47th parliament emphasising the Voice referendum, COVID and rising inflation.

At the end of that term, ten bills were listed for debate but were “timed out” by the constitutional requirement to hold an election.

The most controversial of these is the proposal to add a new 15% tax on superannuation balances of more than $3 million. The Greens, under previous leader Adam Bandt, promised to support the bill in 2023 pending the government extending superannuation to paid parental leave (which was legislated in 2024 and came into effect on July 1 2025).

Read more:
Actually, Gen Z stand to be the biggest winners from the new $3 million super tax

The Greens continue to support the tax proposal in principle, but want the threshold lowered to $2 million.

One Nation is strongly opposed. The Coalition has expressed willingness to negotiate on the condition that unrealised gains are exempt from valuations.

The government has also proposed cutting the number of overseas students at Australian universities, ostensibly due to concerns over exploitation of the student visa program. The Greens have called the proposal “disastrous for tertiary education”.

Pocock and the Coalition have both called for key changes to the bill. Their primary concerns are about a ministerial power to decide appropriate student numbers without parliamentary approval.

Despite opposing the bill for different reasons, the Greens and Coalition were willing to team up against the government – perhaps foreshadowing strategy in the new parliament.

What’s on the horizon?

Labor announced just 15 specific policy proposals before the election. Only two costed promises are registered with the Parliamentary Budget Office. This gives Labor a free hand to determine its policy agenda in the 48th parliament.

Right out of the gate, the government promised to cut HECS debt by 20%. Given the Greens would wipe all current HECS debt, they seem likely to wave this through the Senate.

Treasurer Jim Chalmers has since declared that while “the first term was primarily inflation without forgetting productivity, the second term will be primarily productivity without forgetting inflation”.

In search of new thinking, the government has announced an economic reform roundtable comprising government, business and experts, and covering economic resilience, skills, new technologies, healthcare reform and clean energy.

Productivity is notoriously difficult to measure and improve. Whether policies arising from the roundtable will pass the parliament remains to be seen.

However, the government’s invitation to Shadow Treasurer Ted O’Brien was accompanied with commentary that Chalmers does not believe O’Brien or his leader Sussan Ley are “by their nature constructive, collaborative types”.

Other election policies should be legislated with ease. The Coalition has already supported purchasing the Port of Darwin, promised instant asset write-offs for small business, and pledged to match Labor’s Medicare spending dollar for dollar.

The Coalition is also likely to support new fast-track training for 6,000 tradies.

The Greens will likely support pro-worker reforms. These include legislated weekend penalty rates and new mental health spending.

In general, the government’s stated agenda is incremental and should be achievable in this parliament. If the Greens won’t play ball, the Coalition will be waiting in line.

This will probably lead to quixotic policymaking as Labor bounces between two ideologically opposed partners.

Elsewhere, as in the case of the government’s post-election approval of new licences for gas extraction, policy can happen without parliamentary approval at all.

In such cases, meaningful opposition will come from the cross- and backbenches, full of politicians eager to make a name for themselves.

- Congress passed President Trump’s historic rescissions package, which will save taxpayers $9 billion in wasteful, politically-motivated funding for leftwing foreign aid scams and biased NPR and PBS.
- The wholesale price of a dozen eggs is down 53%, or $3.09, since the inauguration and is down 62%, or $5.08, from its March peak.

- U.S. Customs and Border Patrol encountered just 6,070 illegal immigrants at the southern border in June — setting a new record low (15% lower than the previous record set in March). Additionally, zero illegal immigrants were released into the U.S. on parole in June, compared to 27,766 a year prior.
- The administration has ramped up deportations, breaking a record for the number of deportation flights in a month in June. President Trump’s self-deportation push has also been a massive success. Additionally, over 600 known and suspected terrorists have been removed from the United States.
- At President Trump’s direction, U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement has arrested over 100,000 illegal alien criminals, including over 2,700 members of the vicious Tren de Aragua gang.
- Following President Trump’s declaration of an energy emergency, the U.S. has reached its fastest rate of new oil and gas drilling permits in years, exceeding the Biden administration by 44%.
- Since President Trump took office, core inflation has tracked at just 2.1% — levels not seen since the first Trump Administration, when prices were low and stable — and has come in below or at economists’ expectations every single month. Meanwhile, wholesale inflation remained flat in June, while import prices came in far below expectations.
- Summer gas prices reached their lowest point since 2021, and, inflation-adjusted, are near a 20-year low.
- President Trump’s deregulatory efforts have already saved Americans over $180 billion, or $2,100 per family of four, with the rollback of automobile-related rules alone expected to save consumers more than $1.1 trillion.
- President Trump secured a historic agreement for NATO members to raise defense spending to 5% of GDP – a foreign policy feat long thought impossible.
- Under President Trump’s strong and decisive leadership, the U.S. obliterated Iran’s nuclear program.
- President Trump secured ceasefires between India and Pakistan and Israel and Iran, a peace agreement between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, and a pathway to stability for Syria.
- As a result of his historic peacemaking efforts, President Trump has already received three Nobel Peace Prize nominations since returning to office.

- Companies and foreign governments have pledged over $7.6 trillion in investments into the U.S.
- The U.S. Treasury has taken in nearly $90 billion in tariff duties since January 2025, with the agency posting a record $27.2 billion surplus in June – the first June surplus since 2005.
- President Trump has once again proved to be the Dealmaker-in-Chief, inking a minerals deal with Ukraine, a $14 billion “perpetual Golden Share” sale of U.S. Steel, and trade deals with the United Kingdom, China, and Indonesia.
- President Trump has signed over 170 executive orders, delivering on key campaign promises such as closing the border, protecting children from chemical and surgical mutilation, removing men from women’s sports, unleashing American energy, ending federal censorship, ending the radical indoctrination in K-12 schooling, and ending radical and wasteful government DEI programs and preferencing.
- The S&P 500 and Nasdaq market indices have reached multiple record highs.
- The Supreme Court consistently bolstered the Trump administration’s agenda, blocking activist judges from issuing nationwide injunctions, permitting “third-country deportations,” greenlighting the revocation of temporary protected status (TPS) from more than 500,000 migrants and approving efforts to shrink the federal bureaucracy.
- President Trump signed several pieces of landmark legislation, including the Genius Act, the Halt Fentanyl Act, the Laken Riley Act, and the Take It Down Act.
- The U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and Space Force all reached their recruitment goals months in advance.
- The Trump administration has made incredible strides in its effort to Make America Healthy Again, with roughly 35% of the American food industry making a commitment to eliminate the use of artificial dyes, including Hershey, Consumer Brands and dozens of ice cream companies representing more than 90% of the ice cream volume sold in the U.S.
- President Trump has ensured U.S. benefit programs serve U.S. citizens, with the administration now having protected more than $40 billion in benefit programs from illegal aliens since POTUS signed an Executive Order in February “Ending Taxpayer Subsidization of Open Borders.”
- President Trump inked an agreement to provide billions of dollars of military equipment to Ukraine, with NATO footing the bill.
- President Trump has cracked down on international cartels, designating eight Latin American cartels as terrorist groups, including Tren de Aragua, MS-13 and the Sinaloa Cartel.
- President Trump has solidified the U.S.’s position as the world leader in artificial intelligence, attracting north of $1 trillion in AI investment, including $90 billion in groundbreaking AI and energy investments in Pennsylvania.
- The U.S. is on track for its lowest murder rate on record following President Trump’s reinstatement of law and order.
- Following President Trump’s February executive order, universities and school systems have stopped allowing men in women’s sports, including the University of Pennsylvania, the Virginia High School League and the University of Maine System.
- Hospitals and hospital systems across the country have halted so-called “gender-affirming care” for minors following President Trump’s executive order “protecting children from chemical and surgical mutilation.”
- In his first six months, President Trump has met with 23 foreign leaders, including three visits from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as well as two visits from the NATO Secretary General — compared to thirteen foreign leaders and the UN Secretary General, the NATO Secretary General, and the Chinese Foreign Minister for Obama and just five in-person visits for Biden.

MIL-OSI: BTC and XRP Rally Strengthens Dual-Earnings Model at JA Mining

Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

New York, July 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Amid rising momentum in the digital asset market, JA Mining has enhanced its investment model to support direct participation using leading cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) and XRP (Ripple). All returns are calculated and distributed based on fixed USD-denominated yields, while withdrawal proceeds are reconverted into the original crypto asset at current market rates—allowing users to gain from both daily income and potential token appreciation.

According to recent market data, Bitcoin surged past $120,000 earlier this month, while XRP peaked at $3.65, marking a significant multi-year high. With institutional capital inflows accelerating, analysts are pointing to a structural uptrend. In response, JA Mining has streamlined its platform to accept BTC, XRP, ETH, USDT, and other major digital assets for cloud mining investments, eliminating the need for fiat conversion and reducing entry barriers.

Fixed Income + Market Gains: A Dual Approach to Crypto Returns

Within the JA Mining platform, users can select from a range of cloud mining plans, each offering fixed daily returns in USD. For example, a DOGE plan priced at $2,420 delivers $86.88 in daily earnings, totaling $260.63 over three days. All returns are calculated in USD; however, when users withdraw, the system reconverts the accumulated income into the originally invested cryptocurrency based on the prevailing market rate. This approach enables users to benefit from price appreciation if the token value rises during the investment period.

“We aim to offer users a stable, transparent, and flexible way to grow their digital assets,” a JA Mining spokesperson said. “In an environment where market optimism around BTC and XRP continues to build, our dual-income mechanism provides added upside.”

Mining Contract Examples (Updated July 2025)

LTC Classic Miner – $200 | 2 Days | $7/day → Total: $14

DOGE Innovative Miner – $2,420 | 3 Days | $86.88/day → Total: $260.63

DOGE Quality Choice – $12,500 | 3 Days | $535/day → Total: $1,605

BTC Intelligent Innovation – $55,600 | 2 Days | $4,770/day → Total: $9,540.96

BTC Efficient & Excellent – $258,000 | 5 Days | $24,664.80/day → Total: $123,324

Sustainability and Security at the Core

All of JA Mining’s mining operations are powered entirely by renewable energy, and its mining facilities are located in energy-efficient areas.

LANZHOU, July 20 (Xinhua) — Six people, including an investor, director and cooks of a kindergarten, were arrested in northwest China’s Gansu Province after deliberately adding toxic lead dyes to baby food, poisoning 247 preschoolers, the government’s investigation revealed Sunday.

An investigation by Gansu provincial authorities involving state environmental and health experts concluded that cooks at Heshi Peixin Kindergarten in Maiji District, Tianshui City added dyes labeled “inedible” to flour to make corn buns with sausage and date cakes. The baked goods were served to children and staff several times a month since May 2024.

The director of the kindergarten, with the approval of the investor, advised the cooks to make the food more colorful and attractive. Laboratory analysis of food samples from the kindergarten revealed excess lead concentrations, which amounted to 1,340 mg/kg in corn buns and 1,052 mg/kg in date cakes, which is significantly higher than the permissible levels.

Based on the testing results, 247 of the 251 children had abnormal blood lead levels, including 14 cases that were found on retesting. In addition, 28 staff members had elevated blood lead levels.

As of Sunday afternoon, all 247 children had been treated in hospital or with clinical nutrition at home. A total of 234 children had completed the first course of treatment and were discharged from hospitals, with one child still hospitalized. Five children who left the daycare last year were also found to have abnormal blood lead levels and are currently being treated at home with clinical nutrition.

According to the experts’ conclusion, after providing medical assistance, the level of lead in the patients’ blood decreased by 40.21 percent, which corresponds to the therapeutic goal.

Law enforcement arrested six suspects, two of whom were remanded in custody and three of whom were released on bail pending investigation. The investigation into the case is ongoing. The provincial disciplinary authorities are investigating 10 local officials, including the head of the provincial health committee and Tianshui city leaders.

The Gansu provincial government has promised to provide all-round support for medical care for children, including providing free treatment and financial assistance to families who choose to receive treatment in other regions. –0–

In a statement released on 19 July, MONUSCO said that the Declaration of Principles, signed in Doha under the mediation of Qatar, “reflects the parties’ resolve to prioritise peaceful means, establish a ceasefire, and set up a joint mechanism to define its practical implementation.”

“This important declaration marks a shift towards easing tensions and protecting civilians seriously affected by the conflict,” declared Mr. Bruno Lemarquis, Deputy Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General in the DRC and Acting Head of MONUSCO. “We commend the commitments made and call for their timely and good-faith implementation.”

These commitments include measures to facilitate the voluntary, safe, and dignified return of internally displaced persons and refugees to their places or countries of origin, and the encouragement of inclusive dialogue, seen as vital to addressing the root causes of the conflict and achieving lasting peace.

Earlier this year, the M23 launched an offensive in North and South Kivu provinces, capturing cities and villages, including provincial capitals Goma and Bukavu. Thousands of civilians were killed, hundreds of thousands more were displaced, and serious human rights violations were committed.

The Declaration of Principles comes less than a month after a peace agreement signed by Congo and Rwanda, long accused by the Congolese Government of supporting the M23.

The Mission’s statement highlighted the Declaration’s emphasis on civilian protection and support for the ceasefire, with assistance from MONUSCO and other partners, and reaffirmed its readiness to support the cessation of hostilities, particularly through the establishment of a credible and jointly agreed verification mechanism.

MONUSCO’s statement concluded by urging all parties to honour their commitments, act in good faith throughout the process, and prioritise human rights, security, and the aspirations of the Congolese people in all decisions.
