  • MIL-OSI: Ethereum-Based Little Pepe Hits New Heights With $5,000,000 Raised in Presale

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, July 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Little Pepe (LILPEPE) continues its upward momentum, officially wrapping up Stage 4 of its presale with over $5 million raised. As the token price increases to $0.0014 in Stage 5, investor interest has reached new highs, positioning the project as a standout in the meme coin market. This new milestone demonstrates not just the growing popularity of meme coins in 2025 but also highlights the strength of projects that pair meme energy with real utility.

    Unlike traditional meme tokens that depend upon hype alone, Little Pepe has carved out its niche by imparting something more—a strong Layer 2 blockchain that enhances speed, scalability, and price performance. With every new funding milestone, the project isn’t simply growing in numbers however additionally in legitimacy as a next-gen crypto asset with the power to lead a new wave of network-based tokens.

    What Sets Little Pepe Apart

    At the core of Little Pepe’s offering is the Little Pepe Chain—an Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 protocol designed specifically for high-throughput, low-fee transactions. Built to solve congestion and scaling issues typically associated with Ethereum’s mainnet, this EVM-compatible chain delivers the speed and flexibility modern users demand.

    This technical foundation makes Little Pepe more than a meme. It positions $LILPEPE as a scalable, efficient token that can support future DeFi, and broader Web3 integrations, all while keeping the community-first ethos that makes meme coins so attractive. The chain isn’t just about moving fast—it’s about building something sustainable.

    Stage 5 Launches with Increased Demand

    Following the sold-out Stage 4 presale, the project wasted no time transitioning into Stage 5. With a new token price of $0.0014, the fifth phase is already seeing heightened activity. Many investors who watched earlier stages quickly fill are now rushing to get in before future price increases.

    This growing interest has been fueled by consistent development updates, community engagement across platforms like Telegram and X, and a clear roadmap that outlines what lies ahead for $LILPEPE holders. The project’s transparency and the community’s enthusiasm are proving to be powerful drivers.

    A Strong and Growing Community

    One of the most compelling components of Little Pepe’s rise is its community support. The project has cultivated an international network that resonates with both its meme aesthetic and critical infrastructure. Thousands of users are actively promoting and discussing the coin, fueling viral growth that no advertising price range ought to purchase.

    The conversation isn’t just hype—it’s backed by data. From impressive presale milestones to growing wallet counts, there are strong indicators that Little Pepe’s momentum is both organic and sustainable. This is a meme coin that people believe in, and they’re backing that belief with real capital.

    Why Stage 5 Matters Now More Than Ever

    Every presale stage has brought with it a price increase, and Stage 5 is no exception. Now priced at $0.0014, the token is still early in its lifecycle but has already demonstrated substantial growth potential. For many, this stage represents the perfect entry point before the token makes its way to public exchange listings.

    There’s also a psychological factor at play. The $5 million milestone adds legitimacy and builds FOMO (fear of missing out) among investors who were previously on the fence. The clock is ticking, and those who wait too long may find themselves entering at a significantly higher price point. The team behind Little Pepe has not only managed to deliver a strong presale campaign but has also laid the groundwork for what’s to come. Future updates promise increased functionality, ecosystem growth, and potential partnerships aimed at maximizing utility and adoption.

    With each new stage, Little Pepe is proving it’s more than a viral trend—it’s a long-term project in the evolving world of meme finance. From a custom-built Layer 2 solution to a thriving community and well-executed presale strategy, all signs point toward continued success.

    Little Pepe’s explosive rise past $5 million in presale funding isn’t just a number—it’s a statement. It signals that investors are looking for more from meme coins in 2025: real technology, real communities, and real roadmaps. With Stage 5 now active at $0.0014, $LILPEPE is inviting both early believers and new entrants to be part of what may be one of the year’s most promising crypto stories.

    1131 AM CDT Fri Jul 11 2025

    Valid 111630Z – 121200Z

    …THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM FAR
    NORTHEAST MO AND SOUTHEAST IA INTO NORTHWEST IL…

    …THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE CENTRAL
    AND SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS…

    …SUMMARY…
    Severe thunderstorms are expected this afternoon and evening across
    the Midwest to southern portions of the Great Lakes region,
    accompanied by a risk for damaging wind gusts, hail, as well as some
    tornado potential. Severe thunderstorms are also expected across the
    central/southern High Plains and Upper Midwest.

    …Lower MO and Mid MS Valleys into Great Lakes…
    Recent surface analysis places a low over far southeast NE. Residual
    cloudiness and showers northeast of this low are helping to
    reinforce a warm-front-like baroclinic zone that extends from low
    eastward along the IA/MO border through central IL and IN. This
    boundary will likely sharpen throughout the day as the cloudiness
    and showers persist to its north and temperatures warm into 90s to
    its south. As a result, a reservoir of strong buoyancy is
    anticipated south of this boundary from southern IA into
    northern/central MO and western IL.

    Lift associated with the surface low, as well as its parent
    convectively augmented shortwave trough, will interact with this
    destabilized and buoyant airmass to support thunderstorm development
    by the early afternoon. Moderate vertical shear will be in place
    throughout the base of the shortwave, helping to organize some of
    these storms. However, the corridor of strongest shear is relatively
    narrow, with the broader environment characterized by weak mid-level
    flow and limited vertical shear. As such, a somewhat messy
    convection evolution appears probable.

    Initial development is expected over southern IA during the early
    afternoon. This activity will likely be elevated just north of the
    warm front. Additional warm sector development is also possible
    farther east across west-central/northwest IL. This initial
    development could be more cellular, with both hail and damaging
    gusts as primary risks. However, given the presence of a surface low
    as well as the warm front, some tornado risk is possible with these
    initially more cellular storms as well.

    Convective coverage is expected to increase with overall evolution
    towards a more linear mode anticipated with time. Damaging wind
    gusts should become the more predominant potential hazard as this
    occurs with the line moving east/southeastward this evening. Threat
    for brief embedded tornadoes exists within this evolving convective
    line as well.

    …Central High Plains…
    The immediate post-frontal regime should be favorable for severe
    storm development this afternoon into evening across southeast WY
    and northeast CO into adjacent southwest NE/northwest KS. Some
    initial supercells capable of large hail can be expected, and one or
    more eastward-moving clusters may evolve by evening with
    severe-caliber winds also a possibility.

    …Southern High Plains…
    Moderate low-level moisture (i.e. dewpoints in the upper 50 to low
    60s) is currently in place across eastern NM, which will help offset
    some of the mixing anticipated as the airmass heats into the 90s
    this afternoon. Thunderstorm development is anticipated across the
    higher terrain of central/northern NM and the Raton Mesa, with these
    storms then progressing eastward/southeastward into the moderately
    moist, deeply mixed, and unstable airmass downstream across the
    southern High Plains. Numerous thunderstorms are expected, with the
    higher storm coverage likely facilitating cold pool amalgamation and
    the development of one or more forward-propagating convective
    clusters. Strong wind gusts would be possible within these clusters,
    with severe coverage expected to be high enough to merit introducing
    15% wind probabilities.

    …Upper Midwest…
    At least isolated strong to severe thunderstorms can be expected
    within a narrow corridor near the east/southeastward-moving front
    this afternoon from north-central MN southwestward into eastern SD,
    This will be influenced by the amplifying upper-level trough
    approaching the Dakotas/northern MN. The strongest winds
    aloft/vertical shear will tend to lag the front, but ample
    near/pre-frontal buoyancy will support storms capable of hail/wind.

    Click here or on the image above to watch Senator Capito’s questions. 

    WASHINGTON, D.C. — This week, U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), a member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, participated in a nominations hearing for Dr. Neil Jacobs to be Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere, Taylor Jordan to be an Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Environmental Observation and Prediction, and Harry Kumar to be an Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Legislative and Intergovernmental Affairs. 

    Senator Capito’s questions focused on West Virginia’s contributions to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) operations, as well as nominees’ plans to improve weather warning systems for communities across the country. 

    HIGHLIGHTS:

    ON NOAA’S ENVIRONMENTAL SECURITY COMPUTING CENTER IN FAIRMONT, WEST VIRGINIA: 

    SENATOR CAPITO: “The I-79 tech park in Fairmont is a unique asset for NOAA and the broader adoption of AI. The park houses the supercomputing operation with the high-performance computers named Hera and Raya…what is your institutionalization of AI at NOAA and how would you use these assets that I’ve referenced?” 

    ON IMPROVING WEATHER WARNING SYSTEMS: 

    SENATOR CAPITO: “I’d like to pivot to the storms in Texas and weather predicting. Obviously, I live in an area that is prone to rapid flooding like that, but the tragedy we see in Texas is like nothing I’ve seen. It’s unimaginable for many of us. Community engagement, community warning systems, how can that be improved?” 

    DR. JACOBS: “Even if you have a perfect forecast, if you can’t get the information to the people, it’s totally useless. So having a way to distribute the watches and warnings, and particularly in regions that don’t have good cell coverage, I think there’s an opportunity to modernize NOAA Weather Radio…Probably an all-of-the-above approach and modernizing these watches and warnings is something that’s going to be a top priority.”

  • MIL-OSI USA: Senator Peters Secures Funding for Michigan Priorities in Agriculture Appropriations Bill

    US Senate News:

    Source: United States Senator for Michigan Gary Peters

    WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Senator Gary Peters (MI) helped the Senate Appropriations Committee pass the Fiscal Year 2026 Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act. This bipartisan legislation would fund critical federal agencies and programs that support rural communities, food safety, and America’s robust agricultural economy. The bill also supports Michigan’s agriculture priorities as well as high-impact local projects across Michigan. The bill now advances to the full Senate. 

    “This bill makes investments that matter to Michigan, like strengthening local emergency response efforts, supporting our robust agricultural economy, and improving access to affordable food,” said Senator Peters. “It also delivers resources for food safety initiatives that will help keep all Americans healthy. I’ll keep advocating for these key priorities as this bill moves to the full Senate.” 

    Meanwhile, the House of Representatives is considering their own funding bills. The Senate and House will then need to reach an agreement on a final funding bill and have it pass both chambers before being sent to the President to be signed into law.

    The bill includes numerous measures led and supported by Peters, including: 

    Funding to Support Communities in Michigan:

    New Fire Truck for City of Alpena: Peters secured $1,105,000 in the bill for the City of Alpena to replace an essential aerial ladder fire truck to help ensure safe and efficient operations.

    Improving Public Safety in Bad Axe: The bill includes $850,000 to support the construction of a new public safety building for the City of Bad Axe. The project would help ensure that first responders have the resources they need to efficiently and effectively respond to emergencies.

    New Fire Engine for the City of Berkley: The bill would provide $385,000 to replace the City of Berkley’s primary front-line fire engine responsible for responding to fire and vehicle extraction emergencies.

    Upgrading Emergency Communications Infrastructure in Big Creek Township: Peters secured $74,000 for the Big Creek Township Fire Department to upgrade its radio system. The new system will ensure department staff can efficiently and effectively communicate when responding to emergencies. 

    New Fire Truck for City of Big Rapids: The bill includes $378,000 for the City of Big Rapids to purchase a new fire truck, which will improve community safety and be used to better protect both people and property. 

    New Aerial Ladder Truck for Escanaba: The bill would provide $700,000 for the Escanaba Public Safety Department to replace an aerial ladder fire truck essential to providing safe and efficient emergency and fire services for the community.

    Training First Responders in Grand Traverse County: Peters secured $80,000 in the bill to support the construction of a new training facility for the Northwest Regional Fire Training Center Authority. The facility would support education and training needs for fire, EMS, local and state law enforcement, and maritime professionals. 

    Improving Wildfire Response in Montcalm: The bill would provide $245,000 for the Lakeview District Fire Department in Montcalm to purchase equipment needed to adequately protect the community and property from growing threats of wildfires. 

    Expanding Access to Child Care in Stanton: Peters secured $225,000 to expand the Central Montcalm Public School’s Early Childhood Center to provide more childcare and educational services for the community. 

    New Plow Truck for Village of Ontonagon: The bill includes $169,000 for the Village of Ontonagon to purchase a new plow truck, which will help keep streets and alleyways clear of snow and ice for the safety of both residents and visitors to the nearby Porcupine Mountains State Park.

    New Fire Engine for the City of Rockwood: The bill would provide $765,000 for the City of Rockwood to purchase a new fire engine to help strengthen its fire response for the community. 

    Improving Library Access in Caro: The bill includes $200,000 secured by Peters, which will be used to modernize a 46-year-old elevator currently in use at the Caro Area District Library.

    Supporting Farmers & Michigan’s Agricultural Sector:

    Funding for Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS): This bill includes funding for APHIS, which helps farmers combat specialty crop pests. This funding would support Peters’ Spotted Wing Abatement Trust (SWAT) Act, legislation that aims to reduce the spread of, and advance research on, the spotted wing drosophila (SWD). SWD an invasive insect that harms fruit growers and their crops in Michigan and across the country.  

    Research to Advance Technology in Agriculture: Peters supported a provision in the bill to provide funding for the Agricultural Research Service Crop Production Program, which would allow researchers to identify and develop new methods for increasing crop production sustainably using emerging technologies. These methods include satellites, geospatial systems, and artificial intelligence. 

    Promoting Urban Farming and Indoor Agriculture Sector: The bill includes funding for the Urban Agriculture and Innovative Production Program, which seeks to promote urban, indoor, and other innovative agricultural practices that have been adopted for use in both urban and rural areas to bolster local food systems and extend short growing seasons. 

    Boosting Agricultural Research: The bill includes funding for the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA), which provides funding for key research projects that can contribute to substantial breakthroughs in food, agriculture, natural resources, and human sciences. Investments from NIFA help ensure that farmers, ranchers, and foresters have access to fair and competitive markets, while supporting resilient growing practices that produce nutritious and affordable foods for American families.

    Strengthen Public Health & Expand Nutrition Assistance:

    Funding to Protect Domestic Violence Survivors and Their Pets: Peters secured $3 million in funding for the Emergency and Transitional Pet Shelter and Housing Assistance Grant Program, which provides funding to facilities who harbor survivors of domestic violence, along with their pets, as well as animal shelters that partner with domestic violence service providers. This program was established by Peters’ PAWS Act, which was signed into law in 2018. 

    Funding to Improve Food Safety: The bill includes funding for the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Human Foods Program, which aims to ensure the food we consume is safe and nutritious, including baby food and infant formula. The bill’s report language will begin the work to support FDA’s oversight of baby formula production and update food labeling and consumer guidance. This language was inspired by Peters’ Protect Infant Formula from Contamination Act, which would strengthen FDA’s oversight of infant formula manufacturing and improve the security of our nation’s infant formula supply, ensuring American families have access to safe, affordable formula.

    Language Requiring the FDA to Develop Monitoring Guidelines for Human Cell and Tissue Products (HCT/P): The bill includes language Peters secured that would require the FDA to examine the feasibility of implementing tissue-tracking protocols for HCT/Ps, similar to those required for solid organs and blood products. The bill also requests that the FDA works with other federal agencies to develop routine post HCT/P implant monitoring guidelines similar to current practices for all tissue allograft recipients. This provision builds on Senator Peters’ previous efforts to prevent tuberculosis contaminations in HCT/Ps, including introduction last Congress of the Shandra Eisenga Human Cell and Tissue Products Safety Act, which would establish an education campaign to prevent tuberculosis (TB) outbreaks from infected HCTP donations. 

    Supporting Nutrition Assistance: The bill funds critical programs that help meet the nutrition needs of American families across the country. The bill funds the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), which provides nutrition assistance to millions of women and children nationwide and includes funding to support fruit and vegetable benefits. 

    The bill also funds the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) which assists millions of Americans every month. Additionally, the bill funds vital nutrition programs aimed at supporting children in school, such as the federal school lunch and breakfast programs, and the Summer EBT program. The funding provided by this bill will support approximately 5 billion lunches and 2.7 billion breakfasts to children across the country. 

    Improving Food Safety: The bill provides funding for the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), a vital agency that helps protect the safety and resiliency of America’s food supply. 

    Improving Transparency in FDA Oversight: Peters secured language in the bill that would prevent the FDA from using funds for activities that are non-compliant with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), which governs the establishment, operation, and termination of advisory committees within the executive branch of the federal government. FACA’s main purpose is to ensure transparency and improve public access to the guidance provided by these committees.

    Improving Public Infrastructure:

    Strengthening Dam Infrastructure: The bill includes $1 million for the Natural Resources Conservation Service’s Watershed Rehabilitation Program. This program provides technical and financial assistance to communities seeking to extend the service life of aging dam infrastructure and bring dams into compliance with current safety and performance standards. 

    Rental Assistance in Rural Communities: The bill provides funding for rental assistance for Americans living in rural areas to help expand access to safe and affordable housing options.

  • MIL-OSI: Remittix Confirms Native Solana Integration Ahead of RTX Wallet Launch in Q3 2025

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Crypto payments platform expands functionality with high-speed Solana blockchain support as wallet enters final testing phase.

    KOŠICE, Slovakia, July 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Remittix has officially announced that its upcoming RTX Wallet, set for full release in Q3 2025, will launch with native Solana integration . The feature will allow users to instantly swap Solana (SOL) and SPL stablecoins (USDC, USDT) directly into local currencies, alongside support for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP.

    The integration of Solana enhances the real-time functionality of the RTX Wallet, which is currently undergoing TestFlight trials on iOS. An Android beta release is scheduled for August, marking a significant milestone as the company prepares for its official rollout. The Solana upgrade is designed to increase transaction speed, lower settlement fees, and expand RTX’s usability for both consumers and merchants in high-frequency payment environments.

    “With Solana’s scalability and speed—capable of handling up to 50,000 transactions per second—we’re delivering near-instant conversions of digital assets into local currency,” said a Remittix spokesperson. “This means that a merchant in Bogotá or Nairobi can receive a crypto payment and see fiat arrive in their account in under 10 seconds, at a fraction of traditional processing costs.”

    Remittix reports it has surpassed $16 million in presale commitments, with over 549 million RTX tokens sold at a price of $0.0811, and is on track to complete its $18 million soft cap in the coming weeks.

    Designed to streamline global digital payments, RTX Wallet introduces a simplified user interface where cryptocurrency can be converted into local cash via a single tap. Its dual-key security system, combining encrypted mobile storage and facial-recognition-based cloud access, aims to balance ease-of-use with robust control. Built-in merchant features include automated tax savings and spare-change rounding to support micro-savings.

    Upcoming Developments

    • Public Android Beta: Launching in August 2025
    • Freelancer Plug-in: Scheduled for October, enables instant invoicing and settlement in RTX
    • Licensing: Near-final approvals in Brazil and Kenya, two key markets for cross-border transfers

    As Solana’s integration goes live and licensing expands, Remittix is positioning RTX Wallet as a gateway to fast, accessible, and secure real-world crypto payments.

  • MIL-OSI Analysis: The forgotten 80-year-old machine that shaped the internet – and could help us survive AI

    Source: The Conversation – UK – By Martin Rudorfer, Lecturer in Computer Science, Aston University

    Many years ago, long before the internet or artificial intelligence, an American engineer called Vannevar Bush was trying to solve a problem. He could see how difficult it had become for professionals to research anything, and saw the potential for a better way.

    This was in the 1940s, when anyone looking for articles, books or other scientific records had to go to a library and search through an index. This meant drawers upon drawers filled with index cards, typically sorted by author, title or subject.

    When you had found what you were looking for, creating copies or excerpts was a tedious, manual task. You would have to be very organised in keeping your own records. And woe betide anyone who was working across more than one discipline. Since every book could physically only be in one place, they all had to be filed solely under a primary subject. So an article on cave art couldn’t be in both art and archaeology, and researchers would often waste extra time trying to find the right location.

    This had always been a challenge, but an explosion in research publications in that era had made it far worse than before. As Bush wrote in an influential essay, As We May Think, in The Atlantic in July 1945:

    There is a growing mountain of research. But there is increased evidence that we are being bogged down today as specialisation extends. The investigator is staggered by the findings and conclusions of thousands of other workers – conclusions which he cannot find time to grasp, much less to remember, as they appear.

    Bush was dean of the school of engineering at MIT (the Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and president of the Carnegie Institute. During the second world war, he had been the director of the Office of Scientific Research and Development, coordinating the activities of some 6,000 scientists working relentlessly to give their country a technological advantage. He could see that science was being drastically slowed down by the research process, and proposed a solution that he called the “memex”.

    The memex was to be a personal device built into a desk that required little physical space. It would rely heavily on microfilm for data storage, a new technology at the time. The memex would use this to store large numbers of documents in a greatly compressed format that could be projected onto translucent screens.

    Most importantly, Bush’s memex was to include a form of associative indexing for tying two items together. The user would be able to use a keyboard to click on a code number alongside a document to jump to an associated document or view them simultaneously – without needing to sift through an index.

    Bush acknowledged in his essay that this kind of keyboard click-through wasn’t yet technologically feasible. Yet he believed it would be soon, pointing to existing systems for handling data such as punched cards as potential forerunners.

    Punched cards were an early way of storing digital information.
    Wikimedia, CC BY-SA

    He envisaged that a user would create the connections between items as they developed their personal research library, creating chains of microfilm frames in which the same document or extract could be part of multiple trails at the same time.

    New additions could be inserted either by photographing them on to microfilm or by purchasing a microfilm of an existing document. Indeed, a user would be able to augment their memex with vast reference texts. “New forms of encyclopedias will appear,” said Bush, “ready-made with a mesh of associative trails running through them, ready to be dropped into the memex”. Fascinatingly, this isn’t far from today’s Wikipedia.

    Where it led

    Bush thought the memex would help researchers to think in a more natural, associative way that would be reflected in their records. He is thought to have inspired the American inventors Ted Nelson and Douglas Engelbart, who in the 1960s independently developed hypertext systems, in which documents contained hyperlinks that could directly access other documents. These became the foundation of the world wide web as we know it.

    Beyond the practicalities of having easy access to so much information, Bush believed that the added value in the memex lay in making it easier for users to manipulate ideas and spark new ones. His essay drew a distinction between repetitive and creative thought, and foresaw that there would soon be new “powerful mechanical aids” to help with the repetitive variety.

    He was perhaps mostly thinking about mathematics, but he left the door open to other thought processes. And 80 years later, with AI in our pockets, we’re automating far more thinking than was ever possible with a calculator.

    If this sounds like a happy ending, Bush did not sound overly optimistic when he revisited his own vision in his 1970 book Pieces of the Action. In the intervening 25 years, he had witnessed technological advances in areas like computing that were bringing the memex closer to reality.

    Yet Bush felt that the technology had largely missed the philosophical intent of his vision – to enhance human reasoning and creativity:

    In 1945, I dreamed of machines that would think with us. Now, I see machines that think for us – or worse, control us.

    Bush would die just four years later at the age of 84, but these concerns still feel strikingly relevant today. While it’s great that we do not need to search for a book by flipping through index cards in chests of drawers, we might feel more uneasy about machines doing most of the thinking for us.

    Just 80 years after Bush proposed the Memex, AIs on smartphones are an everyday thing.

    Is this technology enhancing and sharpening our skills, or is it making us lazy? No doubt everyone is different, but the danger is that whatever skills we leave to the machines, we eventually lose, and younger generations may not even get the opportunity to learn them in the first place.

    The lesson from As We May Think is that a purely technical solution like the memex is not enough. Technology still needs to be human-centred, underpinned by a philosophical vision. As we contemplate a great automation in human thinking in the years ahead, the challenge is to somehow protect our creativity and reasoning at the same time.

  • MIL-OSI Analysis: Overhauling the NHS app is at the heart of UK healthcare plans, but it could leave some people behind

    Source: The Conversation – UK – By Catia Nicodemo, Professor of Health Economics, Brunel University of London

    The ‘doctor in your pocket’ will see you soon. CeltStudio/Shutterstock

    The UK government’s ten-year health plan promises a radical digital transformation of the NHS. A key part of this change is said to come from developing the NHS app, which is being hailed as a “doctor in your pocket”.

    The upgraded app will apparently offer features like instant health advice, appointment booking, prescription management and access to personal health records. It is hoped the software will become users’ “front door” to the NHS.

    It’s an ambitious vision which aims to empower patients, streamline services and reduce red tape. And for tech-savvy users, these innovations could significantly improve access to care, reduce waiting times and enhance patient autonomy.

    But while it may herald a new era of convenience for many, it risks leaving behind anyone who struggles with an increasingly digital world. This could then exacerbate health inequalities which already exist – and increase pressure on some areas of already strained services.

    Get your news from actual experts, straight to your inbox. Sign up to our daily newsletter to receive all The Conversation UK’s latest coverage of news and research, from politics and business to the arts and sciences.

    In particular, a digital-first approach to healthcare risks excluding older adults, who may lack the skills or resources to confidently navigate the necessary software. The media regulator Ofcom estimates that around 6% of UK households still lack internet access at home. Figures from the charity Age UK suggest that 33% of people over 75 in the UK lack basic digital skills.

    With regard to health specifically, a 2024 study found that older patients were more likely to misunderstand automated symptom checkers, leading to unnecessary anxiety or delayed care.

    For these people, the planned shift to app-based services could create new barriers to accessing care, potentially leading to delayed diagnoses and worsening health outcomes.

    The NHS plan does at least acknowledge this divide, and says it will confer with patient groups and work with other establishments (such as libraries) to support digital literacy. But these measures will not be enough without guaranteed funding.

    And older people, even those who are comfortable with technology, may face other challenges such as visual impairment or cognitive decline, which can make using apps difficult.

    Others who struggle to use the NHS App for routine care may delay seeking help until their conditions worsen, placing avoidable strain on overstretched hospitals.

    Digital diversion

    This strain might include digital triage inadvertently funnelling non-urgent cases to A&E if users misinterpret symptoms or find the app’s guidance unclear, a risk compounded by the lack of human oversight in automated systems. Or a patient with chronic pain might avoid the app due to digital anxiety or confusion, and end up going to A&E when their condition becomes unbearable and more costly to treat.

    Not everyone is comfortable with apps.
    Halfpoint/Shutterstock

    To avoid all of this, the NHS needs to maintain traditional communication options. Telephone and in-person services must remain accessible and widely available. The ten-year plan’s focus on “digital by default” should not become “digital only”.

    There should also be plenty of investment to help people feel digitally empowered and included. Places like libraries and community centres can certainly help, but targeted outreach will also be necessary, such as partnerships with charities.

    This is not to say the NHS should be overly wary of the benefits of increased digital capabilities. The ten-year plan highlights, for example, the app’s potential to alleviate some of the burdens on healthcare staff, with AI able to take care of admin, saving clinicians time which can be used for patient care instead.

    Such efficiencies are critical for a system grappling with workforce shortages and rising demand. Yet if digital tools are not universally accessible or usable, not everyone will benefit.

    So while the NHS’s digital ambitions are commendable, their success hinges on inclusivity. If it’s not careful, the system risks entrenching a two-tier system where younger, tech-literate patients benefit while older and disadvantaged groups face greater exclusion. As the NHS embraces innovation, it must ensure no one is left behind – especially those who rely on it the most.

    • Biweekly or monthly payment plans
    • Grace periods or extensions (at lender policy discretion)
    • Rollover conditions in allowed states

    Loan sizes, such as the $1000 payday loan, are subject to state lending regulations and lender policies.

    Use AnyDayCash to Get a Quick Loan with No Credit and Access the Funds You Need

    For individuals with little or no established credit, AnyDayCash might offer a route to emergency cash. Prospective borrowers may be considered by lenders with:

    • No FICO score or conventional credit history
    • Recent employment or steady income
    • Active checking accounts

    Credit Check Loans and Soft Credit Pulls Explained with AnyDayCash

    Most lenders do soft credit pulls, which are not recorded on credit reports or affect scores. They usually consist of:

    • Public credit file inquiries
    • History of transactions in bank accounts
    • Fraud and identity screening

    Hard credit checks, which may impact credit scores, only normally take place after a loan applicant has accepted a loan and opted to pursue a lender that demands such a check. AnyDayCash itself does not perform hard credit pulls.

    AnyDayCash’s Credit Builder Approach for Payday Loan Borrowers

    Even though payday loans are not intended to be credit-building, paying loans back on time can have a positive effect on credit if the lender reports to the bureaus. Not all lenders, though, report payday loan borrowing. Borrowers who want to build credit should:

    • Check with the lender if repayments are reported
    • Make on-time payments
    • Stay away from default or early rollover cycles

    AnyDayCash does not have any ability to direct how or if individual lenders report loan activity.

    The Benefits of Choosing AnyDayCash to Get a 1000 Dollar Loan Online

    Logistically, the web-based model of AnyDayCash provides a number of operational advantages:

    • Avoidance of in-person interactions
    • Submission of a single application to a variety of lenders
    • Live feedback from prospective lenders

    This process can prove to be time-saving for those pursuing short-term lending on periods of economic tightness.

    Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is rapidly coming into prominence in cancer treatment as a non-surgical, highly selective option that utilizes the accuracy of light activated therapeutics to kill cancer cells while sparing normal tissue. The method consists of administering a photosensitizing drug that selectively collects in cancer cells and then shining a particular wavelength of light on them to activate the drug and kill the cells. Since conventional cancer therapies tend to invoke significant side effects and collateral damage to normal tissues, PDT presents an attractive option with increasing popularity in clinical and research circles.

    The global landscape of PDT for cancer is undergoing transformation with ongoing innovation in photosensitizers as well as in light delivery systems. A prime example is Sun Pharmaceutical’s FDA cleared BLU-U Blue Light PDT Illuminator released in May 2025. This new generation device substitutes traditional fluorescent tube systems with small LED panels, which are energy-efficient and more comfortable for patients. For use with LEVULAN KERASTICK to treat actinic keratoses, the LED-based BLU-U is more flexible and portable and provides a simplified user experience without any compromise on clinical effectiveness. This is consistent with a larger trend towards the modernization of PDT equipment, increasing accessibility and portability of treatments to different healthcare environments.

    Biofrontera’s advancement with Ameluz® further exemplifies the development of PDT in dermatologic oncology. In January 2025, the company successfully completed one-year follow-up for its Phase 3 study assessing Ameluz® when used with the RhodoLED lamp to treat superficial basal cell carcinoma. With strongly statistically significant outcomes, Biofrontera is gearing up for a regulatory filing with a focus on broadening the treatment indication. In addition, the company announced official confirmation of a new patent for Ameluz nanoemulsion gel free from propylene glycol, providing protection through December 2043. This not only enables improved product safety and effectiveness but also enhances its competitive market standing, illustrating the value of formulation innovation in progressing PDT therapies.

    Outside of dermatology, photodynamic therapy is also demonstrating potential in treating more advanced and internal cancers. Emerging photosensitizers like padeliporfin in vascular-targeted PDT (VTP) are being tested for intermediate-risk prostate cancer and locally advanced pancreatic cancer. These drugs specifically target the vasculature of the tumor with high accuracy, allowing them to treat cancers that are conventionally difficult to reach or chemotherapy- and surgery-resistant. Such clinical applications reflect PDT’s move from surface applications to more profound oncologic issues driven by advances in molecular design and drug-delivery technology.

    Nanotechnology is central to this evolution. Scientists are constructing multifunctional nanoplatforms that integrate the functions of targeting, imaging, and therapy into one agent. These platforms are able to target photosensitizers directly to cancer cells via receptor-targeted pathways, greatly enhancing specificity of treatment and diminishing side effects. Nanomedicine innovations are especially promising in the treatment of drug-resistant cancers and improving PDT effectiveness against challenging malignancies such as lung or pancreatic carcinomas. Nanoparticles coated with monoclonal antibodies, for example, enable targeted delivery of photosensitizers to cancer cells, inducing localized cytotoxicity upon activation with light and avoiding damage to nearby healthy tissue.

    PDT’s combination with immunotherapy is another compelling avenue for the future. Since PDT causes immunogenic cell death, it has the potential to activate the immune system by releasing tumor antigens to trigger systemic priming. This makes it an ideal complement to immune checkpoint inhibitors, providing potential synergy for cancer treatments. Over the next several years, additional clinical trials will test these combinations, potentially delivering new, highly effective multimodal therapies.

    Technological advances in light delivery are also transforming the PDT horizon. The creation of wearable, flexible, and even domestic-use light systems is facilitating wider use, particularly for repeat or chronic skin cancers. Integration with artificial intelligence and digital health technologies, including real-time biosensing and patient-specific treatment algorithms, is enabling clinicians to dynamically modulate therapy according to patient-specific variables and treatment outcome. These innovations are not just maximizing results but also maximizing convenience and reducing the overall care burden.

    Multi-photon PDT, yet another developing innovation, applies longer-wavelength light to excite photosensitizers further into tissues. Two-photon and three-photon activation have been studied most extensively, and these two can be used to treat tumors that were previously out of reach with standard means. This method is high-tech in requiring very concentrated light sources, yet it holds promise for localized tumors like ocular melanoma, providing new treatment options.

    In coming years, further refinement of photosensitizers will focus on reducing post-treatment photosensitivity and enhancing the capacity for targeting deeply infiltrative lesions. Personalized PDT is also becoming more practical with treatment protocols customized to the individual tumor biology and clinical presentation of each patient. Real-time imaging agents are being employed to monitor drug distribution and activation, allowing for more effective and dynamic therapy.

    The impetus in PDT development and research mirrors an even broader movement towards personalized, minimally invasive cancer treatment. As clinical trials progress, regulatory milestones are reached, and technical advances are realized, photodynamic therapy is poised to increase its presence in oncology. Ranging from superficial skin lesions to complex intra-abdominal tumors, the advancing capabilities of PDT foretell an era when light-based therapy is an established component of integrated cancer care globally.

    Raleigh, NC

    Today Governor Josh Stein announced GMAX Industries, Inc., a manufacturer of medical products, will create 36 new jobs in Forsyth County. The company will invest $11.4 million to establish its first North American production facility in Winston-Salem.

    “I welcome GMAX Industries to the best state in the nation to do business,” said Governor Josh Stein. “North Carolina continues to build on its reputation as a manufacturing powerhouse with its world-class workforce, excellent infrastructure, and outstanding supply chain access that will support this company’s future success.”

    GMAX Industries, Inc. is a New York-based certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), and a manufacturer and global sourcing partner specializing in high-quality disposable medical supplies. With over 30 years of industry expertise, GMAX provides essential products, including medical textiles, patient bedside plastics and single-use OEM components. The company is expanding its U.S. footprint with a new 144,000 square foot facility to support domestic manufacturing and national distribution. This investment strengthens the healthcare supply chain by shifting production closer to patient demand and increasing resilience across the system.

    “We’re proud to introduce GMAX as a trusted partner in the healthcare supply chain,” said Eric Liu, President and CEO of GMAX Industries, Inc. “As we expand our U.S. manufacturing capabilities, our focus remains on delivering high-quality, dependable medical products with greater speed, control, and responsiveness. By investing in domestic production, we’re not only strengthening the supply chain but also supporting American jobs and healthcare resilience.”

    “Companies like GMAX benefit greatly from North Carolina’s legacy of manufacturing excellence and entrepreneurial spirit,” said Commerce Secretary Lee Lilley. “Our state has the largest manufacturing workforce in the southeastern United States, great partnerships, and a storied history of innovation that continues to take our economy, community, and businesses to new heights.”

    While wages vary by position, the annual average salary for the new positions will be $66,667, exceeding Forsyth County’s average of $65,319. These new jobs could potentially create an annual payroll impact of more than $2.4 million for the region.

    A performance-based grant of $75,000 from the One North Carolina Fund will help the company expand to North Carolina. The OneNC Fund provides financial assistance to local governments to help attract economic investment and to create jobs. Companies receive no money upfront and must meet job creation and capital investment targets to qualify for payment. All OneNC grants require matching participation from local governments, and any award is contingent upon that condition being met.

    “This is great news for Forsyth County and the surrounding communities,” said Senator Paul A. Lowe, Jr. “Our growing pool of talent and manufacturing environment are fueling the economy for companies like GMAX to operate, grow, and thrive.”

    London, UK, July 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — As the Ripple ecosystem continues to expand, XRP has become one of the strongest performing crypto assets in the past 24 hours, with prices reaching $2.64 at one point, a daily increase of more than 8%, and trading volume exceeding $7.8 billion, setting a new daily high in nearly three months. The rise was driven by two good news: first, Ripple and BNY Mellon established a custody partnership for the stablecoin RLUSD; second, the market heard that XRP is expected to be included in an upcoming blue-chip crypto ETF, triggering accelerated capital inflows.

    Many research institutions pointed out that the current rise in XRP prices is no longer a short-term market speculation, but a structural market driven by infrastructure construction, ecological synergy and institutional configuration. Against this background, more and more investors are turning from high-volatility currency price speculation to seeking more stable and predictable ways of making profits.

    JA Mining becomes a new entry point for structured crypto investment

    In this trend of “reshaping the logic of returns”, JA Mining, as a new generation of cloud mining platform, is gaining wide attention. The platform focuses on the three core positionings of “low threshold, high transparency, and strong compatibility”, helping users to participate in cryptocurrency mining through contracts, without the need to purchase mining machines, electricity bills, and technical maintenance, and can achieve daily automated returns.

    JA Mining currently supports mainstream crypto assets including BTC, DOGE, and XRP, and builds a global distributed mining architecture through intelligent allocation of multi-currency computing power and deployment of high-efficiency green data centers. Users can choose the contract amount and period as needed, the platform settles on a daily basis, and the returns are directly credited to the account, which is highly controllable and flexible.

    JA Mining has multiple advantages:

    • Equipment-free and maintenance-free: No need to purchase mining machines or management systems by yourself, all operations can be completed with one click, suitable for ordinary users to quickly get started.
    • Support mainstream currencies: Comprehensive coverage of popular assets such as BTC, DOGE, XRP, ETH, etc., to meet the investment preferences of different users.
    • Daily settlement of income: Daily income distribution within a fixed period, transparent process, and controllable risks.
    • Invitation rebate mechanism: Recommend others to join to enjoy up to 7% continuous commission rewards and build a personal mining network.

    Another advantage worth emphasizing is that:

    JA Mining adopts a daily income settlement mechanism denominated in US dollars to ensure that users lock in stable income during the entire contract period. After the contract expires, users can choose to withdraw their income to mainstream cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Dogecoin, and XRP. This design brings significant strategic flexibility – based on the certainty of income, users can choose to withdraw when the market price rises, thereby achieving the dual profit of “fixed US dollar income + currency price appreciation“. For example, if a user withdraws money when the price of a currency is rising, he or she will receive more equivalent cryptocurrencies at a higher exchange rate, thereby amplifying the actual returns.

    The following are some examples of popular contracts：

    Whether you are trying a small amount or pursuing high returns, JA Mining provides a flexible contract portfolio that suits various risk preferences and investment sizes.

    Investment behavior is being reshaped: “Trading thinking” gives way to “income model”

    Since the second quarter of 2025, the user structure of JA Mining has been changing. Data shows that the number of high-net-worth individuals and family office users has increased significantly, the average holding period has been extended to more than 4.2 days, and the reinvestment rate has exceeded 63%. This shows that the market is increasingly inclined to regard cloud mining as a “passive cash flow configuration tool” rather than a short-term gaming platform.

    Against the backdrop of continued increase in currency price volatility, the importance of structural income models has been re-recognized. The compound mechanism of “computing power leasing + US dollar income + withdrawal autonomy” represented by JA Mining may constitute a new framework for mainstream crypto investment in the future.

  • MIL-OSI USA: SASC Passes FY 2026 NDAA, Advances Major Victories for North Dakota and the Nation

    US Senate News:

    Source: United States Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND)
    ***Click here for audio.***
    BISMARCK, N.D. – The Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC) advanced the Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The legislation, which makes major investments in North Dakota’s contribution to national security and military readiness, will now head to the Senate floor for consideration.
    Among other provisions, this year’s NDAA codifies support for President Trump’s Golden Dome architecture, recognizes the importance of robust and timely mental health care for military personnel and their families by addressing staffing shortfalls at military medical treatment facilities, and improves the process for service members transitioning to civilian life.
    “Well, advancing the [National] Defense Authorization Act out of the Armed Services Committee really is an important first step to fulfilling our Constitutional duty by providing for the common defense,” said Cramer, chair of the SASC Airland Subcommittee and co-chair of the Senate Defense Modernization Caucus. “Whether it’s investing in Grand Forks’ intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities, modernizing our nuclear triad in Minot, or really upgrading the radar at Cavalier Space Force Station, the bill solidifies the crucial role that North Dakota plays in protecting our homeland. I really appreciate Chairman Wicker and Ranking Member Reed for their leadership, and I look forward to working with my colleagues to pass the bill on the Senate floor, hopefully very soon.”
    Cramer has consistently used his seat on SASC to strengthen North Dakota-based defense missions and military communities. The SASC FY26 NDAA authorizes multiple projects across North Dakota:
    Cavalier Space Force Station (SFS)
    This year’s NDAA provides $22 million for the modernization of the Perimeter Acquisition Radar Attack Characterization System (PARCS) at Cavalier SFS. The single-faced, multi-function, UHF-Band, and phased-array radar system tracks over half of all earth-orbiting objects. Modernizing PARCS improves detection of intercontinental and sea-launched missile threats, while improving space domain awareness capabilities.
    Cavalier SFS will play a central role in the Golden Dome initiative. President Trump’s vision for a layered missile defense shield for America calls for the modernization and expansion of U.S. missile defense capabilities across all domains to protect the homeland against ballistic, cruise and hypersonic missiles, and drone threats. Cramer and U.S. Senator Dan Sullivan (R-AK) introduced the bicameral Ground and Orbital Launched Defeat of Emergent Nuclear Destruction and Other Missile Engagements (GOLDEN DOME) Act, a sweeping legislative initiative which complements President Trump’s executive order directing the implementation of a next-generation missile defense shield for the nation.
    Grand Forks
    The bill includes investments in intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities at Grand Forks Air Force Base and maintains the base’s inventory requirements of RQ-4 Global Hawks. Further, the FY26 NDAA will provide: 
    $277 million for Tranche 3 of the Space Development Agency’s (SDA) Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture. According to SDA, Tranche 3 satellites will “accelerate the capability to provide global, persistent indications, detection, warning, tracking, and identification of conventional and advanced missile threats, including hypersonic missile systems.” 
    $17 million for the development of corrosion resistant coatings produced by Technology Applications Group (TAG) in Grand Forks. TAG is a leader in magnesium surface protection and inventor of the Tanite anodize coating.
    Minot
    The year’s NDAA secures $2 billion for the Sentinel intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) program. The Sentinel ICBM, which will replace 50-year-old Minuteman IIIs, is a key component of the nation’s nuclear deterrence. This is in addition to the $2.5 billion investment included in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act which was signed into law on July 4. The NDAA requires the ICBM count to be no less than 400 to adequately deter nuclear aggression abroad. 
    Additionally, the legislation encourages the U.S. Air Force to establish wing-level additive manufacturing facilities to better support conventional and nuclear long-range strike platforms. The initiative improves readiness while decreasing cost and time of repair. 
    Fargo
    North Dakota’s “Happy Hooligans” in Fargo operate MQ-9 Reapers, which are central to the state’s growing role in operating Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA). The NDAA establishes a formal combat identifier to recognize the participation of RPA crew members who conduct operations in direct support of combat missions. This identification would enable the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to administer benefits and services which account for combat-related service.
    Cramer and U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV) introduced the Combat Action Recognition and Evaluation (CARE) for Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) Crews Act which ensures provides RPA crew members with the recognition and access to services they deserve.
    North Dakota National Guard (NDNG)
    The SASC-passed version of the legislation authorizes $5 million for the planning and design of an Armory in Jamestown. The planned project is a top priority of the NDNG.

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    HONG KONG, July 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MultiBank Group, the world’s largest financial derivatives institution, has officially opened the waitlist for early access to its highly anticipated utility token, MBG. This marks a significant step in the company’s strategy to merge traditional finance with the Web3 ecosystem.

    All waitlist participants will receive early access to the token presale and automatically enter a raffle for a pool of 27,000 MBG tokens. Registration is now available on the official token website with a simplified process requiring no KYC procedures or financial commitments at this stage.

    Waitlist benefits

    The MBG token waitlist presents a unique opportunity to reserve early access before the public sale begins. By joining the waitlist, participants secure their place among the first invited to purchase the token.

    The early access program is designed to give the community time to study the project and make informed decisions about participating in the tokenized ecosystem of one of the world’s leading financial groups.

    Token built on MultiBank’s solid financial heritage

    The MBG token stands out in the volatile crypto market with its unique foundation—it is backed by real assets and revenues of MultiBank Group, a company with an impeccable 20-year reputation in the financial industry.

    MultiBank Group, established in 2005, today holds 17 regulatory licenses across five jurisdictions and serves over 2 million clients in more than 100 countries. With daily trading volume exceeding $35 billion and net profit of $275.9 million in 2024, the company demonstrates financial stability that is rare in the Web3 world.

    Notably, the token launch comes on the heels of MultiBank’s recent landmark $3 billion deal with MAG Lifestyle Development and Mavryk—the world’s largest real estate tokenization initiative. This deal, featuring premium properties like The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Dubai, Creekside at Keturah Resort, and Keturah Reserve, positions MBG as the next anticipated milestone in the company’s strategy, attracting attention from both institutional and retail investors.

    Four pillars of the MBG ecosystem

    The MBG token is integrated into MultiBank Group’s four-pillar ecosystem to maximize its utility:

    1. MultiBank FX (TradFi Platform)

    • Current daily volume: $35 billion
    • 2024 EBITDA: $284.9 million
    • Trading in Forex, metals, shares, indices, and commodities

    2. MEX Exchange (Institutional ECN)

    • Independent valuation: $23.7 billion
    • First institutional ECN for emerging markets
    • Projected volume: $460 billion per day by year five

    3. MultiBank.io (Crypto platform)

    • Regulated in UAE, Australia, India, and more
    • Spot and derivatives trading
    • Projected revenue by 2030: $1.4 billion

    4. MultiBank.io RWA (Real-World Assets marketplace)

    • Premium real estate tokenization
    • Initial portfolio: $3 billion
    • Expansion to $10 billion in assets

    MBG holders gain access to benefits across the entire ecosystem: from trading discounts and priority execution to staking rewards and exclusive access to tokenized real estate assets.

    MBG token benefits

    The token offers an 11-tier loyalty system where holders of 1,000 to 550,000+ tokens receive progressive benefits: spot trading discounts up to 23%, fixed staking yields up to 45% annually, and substantial FX/CFD trading discounts up to 22.5%.

    The staking program includes both fixed and variable APY options. Fixed programs offer predictable returns from 3% (30 days) to 29% (365 days), depending on the holder’s tier. The variable model is tied to ecosystem trading fees, creating a sustainable source of rewards.

    Holders also receive priority trade execution, access to exclusive trading pairs including tokenized RWA assets, and early access to IEO listings on the platform. For social traders, the token unlocks advanced portfolio copying capabilities and trading signals from top traders.

    At the institutional level, MBG provides on-chain trade recording for full transparency, simplified auditing for compliance requirements, and the ability to use tokenized assets as collateral for derivatives trading—creating a unique bridge between TradFi and DeFi.

    MBG token: A window to the future

    “MultiBank has extensive experience and an excellent reputation in the market, which allows us to proudly present a new promising project that will ensure seamless interaction between Web3 and traditional finance,” notes Zak Taher, founder and CEO of MultiBank.io.

    The token also includes a deflationary buyback and burn model tied to platform revenues. The program envisions cumulative burning of up to $440 million over the first four years, potentially removing up to 50% of the total token supply.

    Development prospects

    The official launch of the MBG token is scheduled for July 2025 with listings on leading centralized and decentralized exchanges. Waitlist participants will receive notifications about all key dates and early participation opportunities.

  • MIL-OSI Analysis: Why it can be hard to warn people about dangers like floods – communication researchers explain the role of human behavior

    Source: The Conversation – USA – By Keri K. Stephens, Professor & Co-Director, Technology & Information Policy Institute, The University of Texas at Austin

    How emergency alerts convey risks matters. AP Photo/Eric Gay

    Flash floods like the one that swept down the Guadalupe River in Texas on July 4, 2025, can be highly unpredictable. While there are sophisticated flood prediction models and different types of warning systems in some places, effective flood protection requires extensive preparedness and awareness.

    It also requires an understanding of how people receive, interpret and act on risk information and warnings. Technology can be part of the solution, but ultimately people are the critical element in any response.

    As researchers who study emergency communications, we have found that simply providing people with technical information and data is often not enough to effectively communicate the danger and prompt them to act.

    The human element

    One of us, Keri Stephens, has led teams studying flood risk communication. They found that people who have experienced a flood are more aware of the risks. Conversely, groups that have not lived through floods typically don’t understanding various flood risks such as storm surges and flash floods. And while first responders often engage in table-top exercises and drills – very important for their readiness to respond – there are only a few examples of entire communities actively participating in warning drills.

    Messages used to communicate flood risk also matter, but people need to receive them. To that end, Keri’s teams have worked with the Texas Water Development Board to develop resources that help local flood officials sort through and prioritize information about a flood hazard so they can share what is most valuable with their local communities.

    The commonly used “Turn Around Don’t Drown” message, while valuable, may not resonate equally with all groups. Newly developed and tested messages such as “Keep Your Car High and Dry” appeal specifically to young adults who typically feel invincible but don’t want their prized vehicles damaged. While more research is needed, this is an example of progress in understanding an important aspect of flood communication: how recipients of the information make decisions.

    Interviews conducted by researchers often include responses along these lines: “Another flash flood warning. We get these all the time. It’s never about flooding where I am.” This common refrain reveals a fundamental challenge in flood communication. When people hear “flood warning,” they often think of different things, and interpretations can vary depending on a person’s proximity to the flooding event.

    Some people equate flood warnings with streamflow gauges and sensors that monitor water levels – the technical infrastructure that triggers alerts when rivers exceed certain thresholds. Others think of mobile phone alerts, county- or geographic-specific notification systems, or even sirens.

    Beyond technologies and digital communication, warnings still come through informal networks in many communities. Emergency managers directly coordinate with and share information with major businesses and organizations, saying, “Hey, John, be sure you have somebody up tonight watching the National Weather Service alerts and rivers.”

    This human-centered approach, similar to neighborhood-level systems we have studied in Japan, can provide direct confirmation that warnings have been received. This is something mass media and mobile systems cannot guarantee, especially during infrastructure failures such as power and cell tower outages.

    Effective messages

    Research shows that effective warning messages need to include five critical components: a clear hazard description, location-specific information, actionable guidance, timing cues and a credible source. The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s integrated public alert and warning system message design dashboard assists authorities in rapidly drafting effective messages.

    This warning system, known as IPAWS, provides nationwide infrastructure for wireless emergency alerts and Emergency Alert System messages. While powerful, IPAWS has limitations − not all emergency managers are trained to use it, and messages may extend beyond intended geographic areas. Also, many older mobile devices lack the latest capabilities, so they may not receive the most complete messages when they are sent.

    Hyperlocal community opt-in systems can complement IPAWS by allowing residents to register for targeted notifications. These systems, which can be run by communities or local agencies, face their own challenges. People must know they exist, be willing to share phone numbers, and remember to update their information. Social media platforms add another communication channel, with emergency managers increasingly using social media to share updates, though these primarily reach only certain demographics, and not everyone checks social media regularly.

    The key is redundancy through multiple communication channels. Research has found that multiple warnings are needed for people to develop a sense of urgency, and the most effective strategy is simple: Tell another person what’s going on. Interpersonal networks help ensure the message is delivered and can prompt actions. As former Natural Hazards Center Director Dennis Mileti observed: The wireless emergency alerts system “is fast. Mama is faster.”

    A Colorado news report explains why emergency alerts have to be tailored for local needs and conditions and use multiple communication channels.

    Warning fatigue

    Professionals from the National Weather Service, FEMA and the Federal Communications Commission, along with researchers, are increasingly concerned about warning fatigue – when people tune out warnings because they receive too many of them.

    However, there is limited empirical data about how and when people experience warning fatigue – or about its impact.

    This creates a double bind: Officials have an obligation to warn people at risk, yet frequent warnings can desensitize recipients. More research is needed to determine the behavioral implications of and differences between warnings that people perceive as irrelevant to their immediate geographic area versus those that genuinely don’t apply to them. This distinction becomes especially critical when people might drive into flooded areas outside their immediate vicinity.

    The key to effective emergency communication is to develop messages that resonate with specific audiences and build community networks that complement technological systems. We are now studying how to do this effectively in the United States and internationally. It’s also important to apply behavioral insights to the design of every level of communication warning systems. And it’s important to remember to test not just the technology but the entire end-to-end system, from threat identification to community response.

    Finally, maintaining true redundancy across multiple communication channels is an important strategy when trying to reach as many people as possible. Technology supports human decision-making, but it doesn’t replace it.
