    Headline: How AI is helping build new solutions for government social services 

    An indigenous elder suffering chronic health conditions in a remote village needs help traveling to receive medical care. A single mother in in a crowded city loses her job and seeks unemployment and childcare benefits. A young worker in a multilingual country cannot access housing assistance because he doesn’t speak the official language. 

    These are just a few of the incredibly broad range of scenarios in which people around the world look to government social services entities for help and support. In fact, more than half the world’s population (52.4%) are covered by at least one social protection benefit.1 As these services expand, dedicated public organizations and agencies strive to administer benefits programs, enhance access to healthcare, and protect vulnerable populations—even as they face growing pressure to do more with less. 

    Helping government agencies and organizations explore the potential of AI and build new solutions that deliver both near-term impact and long-term transformation is central to our work at Microsoft for Government. We cultivate longstanding partnerships with government organizations of all types to help innovate and deliver secure, trustworthy services that promote safety, health, and prosperity.

    How generative AI is opening new avenues of impact 

    Fueled by a convergence of modern challenges, AI has quickly emerged as a uniquely transformative solution in delivering social services. Budgetary and workforce pressures, the proliferation of data, and constituents’ demands for services that mirror private sector offerings all add to the pressure. And that’s not to mention escalating cyberthreats and the complexity of business and technology.  

    Generative AI—with its unique abilities to synthesize data, understand natural language, retain contextual information, summarize content, and write documents and code—is uniquely suited to help answer these challenges. With powerful solutions like Microsoft 365 Copilot, custom-developed agents and chatbots, and other innovations that integrate AI into regular workflows and processes, governments have the opportunity to not just fix the old but invent the new.  

    Around the world, agencies and organizations have had remarkable success in early AI use cases designed to help improve efficiency, streamline service delivery, and gain powerful insights from data and predictive analytics. Here are three examples of critical impact we’ve seen in the past year:  

    1. Enhance constituent experiences with easier access to information 

    As expectations for fast, personalized digital services grow, many governments are seeing immediate impact with AI-powered chatbots or other virtual assistants to handle ranges of inquiries and assistance.  

    These innovations are available at any hour of the day and are well equipped to handle large volumes of requests for help with things like licensing, transit, taxation, and more. They let people engage on the channel of their choice—such as phone calls, digital chat, and social media—and use different languages to rapidly get the right information, apply for benefits, receive updates, and report incidents. 

    A great example is a chatbot called Boti, which the government of the City of Buenos Aires recently revamped using Microsoft Azure OpenAI services to revolutionize public interactions. Trained on an extensive government database, the chatbot uses natural language interaction to handle 2 million queries per month, helping citizens find services—everything from basic services like driver’s license renewals to public health information and personalized information for tourists. Along the way, it has lowered the operational burden by 50%. 

    The beauty of these kinds of solutions is that they ease the burden of finding and getting the best possible service, even when people have little idea of who or what agency to contact. AI makes it easier for a constituent to explore their options. And then, when they do engage, they only need to provide their critical information one time.

    Not forcing someone to continually supply the same information as they move through the system is a huge consideration in cases where people have experienced traumatic, emotional, or embarrassing events. Participation is strained when a person is forced to re-explain and re-live unpleasant experiences. So, AI’s ability to retain essential details through a case management process and retain context from queries helps ensure an experience that is not only more efficient but also more dignified.  

    AI also plays a role in helping constituents when they are unhappy with their services. An AI-powered contact center, like Microsoft Dynamics 365 Contact Center, can provide new levels of support that can enhance human decision-making. For example, an AI-powered contact center can trigger an escalation to a customer service representative when sentiment analysis detects a person getting frustrated or upset. Using intelligent routing, it can connect the constituent to the best representative based on context and need, and assist the representative by summarizing the person’s situation, suggesting optimal solutions, and even drafting response recommendations. 

    2. Boost the efficiency and effectiveness of staff 

    One of the most vital advances in the digital evolution of government is the shift away from cumbersome tasks involving antiquated websites, electronic forms, even paper-based processes, to automated, intelligent systems that not only ease data collection but also interpret data, learn from it, and even act on it.  

    With AI acting as an intelligent, ever-present assistant, social services case workers and caregivers are able to focus more on helping people and spend less time on tedious tasks than before. These new tools give workers instant access to relevant information from across data silos—including unstructured data such as content in PDFs, files, websites, and even digitized hand-written documents—all of which had largely been unavailable to analysis before. 

    For example, the Torfaen County Borough Council in Wales, United Kingdom, saw gains in productivity after they adopted Microsoft 365 Copilot, which integrates generative AI into everyday applications including Word, Excel, and Outlook. The process of taking and recording notes, for example, has been dramatically simplified, which is freeing workers to spend more time engaging with residents and providing personalized services. 

    With the help of AI assistance, a case worker can serve constituents far more effectively. Client meetings, for example, can be completely transformed. Meeting preparation can be done faster and far more comprehensively, with insights and recommendations gleaned from information across the enterprise, including from files that were previously inaccessible, restricted, or difficult to extract meaningful insights from. The meeting can be recorded and automatically transcribed, which enables the case worker to focus on their client versus note-taking. Afterwords, Microsoft Teams can transcribe and summarize the meeting, with details and action items imported directly into case management systems. 

    3. Enhance processes and outcomes with advanced analytics 

    Perhaps the most transformative aspect of AI is the power of advanced analytics. This refers to AI’s unique ability to turn raw data into actionable insights by identifying patterns, making connections, and even predicting outcomes. In health and social services, this can translate into a variety of useful benefits. 

    For instance, AI can help turn the often-cumbersome process of evaluating applications for benefits or other social services into a faster, more precise, and user-friendly process. It can analyze information against policy rules, interpret regulations to help ensure criteria are met, and cross-check submitted data with official records. This means fewer errors that might lead to incorrect approvals or denials, and greater client satisfaction. 

    Collectively, these abilities can transform important social services initiatives. For example, they play a crucial role in a new digital platform built by the Department of Human Services (DHS) in South Australia to modernize how high-risk domestic violence cases are managed. Previously, agencies relied on physical documents and semi-structured Excel spreadsheets to track cases, which hindered information sharing, decision making, and coordination across agencies. The new Family Safety Portal, integrating AI with Microsoft Power BI, transformed DHS’s domestic violence response into a proactive, highly adaptive, and evidence-based system. Referrals that once took days are now done in real-time, and 10 agencies now share data in a centralized system that is highly secure.  

    In terms of improving public health and wellbeing, AI and analytic tools can collect, analyze, and report on public health or program data to gain a holistic view of individuals receiving services to improve care. A case worker, for example, can use AI to see beyond isolated data points and gain a far more complete view of a person’s situation, needs, and history. With less administrative burden, this provides critical context to ensure that the constituent receives precisely the right support and enhance care coordination and interventions.  

    The other essential benefit provided by analytics is in the realm of fraud, waste, and abuse. By analyzing vast amounts of information in real time and leveraging data from past records and experiences, AI can spot patterns, identify irregularities, and flag suspicious behaviors far more effectively and faster than traditional methods. This can help organizations proactively detect and mitigate fraud risks—for example, by evaluating submissions as they arrive instead of through audits, automating verification in seconds by cross-checking IDs and application details, or comparing an applicant’s behavior with previous submissions to ensure they are legitimate. 

    Move forward in your AI journey 

    Virtually any government agency can derive immediate benefits from generative AI. However, to unlock the full power of modern analytics and advanced AI, an organization needs to modernize their cloud environment and ensure an AI-ready data estate.  

    Every organization’s journey is unique, and it’s important to build a long-term strategy with trusted technology partners.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Wyoming National Guard joins Colorado, South Dakota in support of DEA’s 28th National Drug Take Back Day

    Source: US State of Wyoming

    Wyoming National Guard

    CHEYENNE, Wyo. — The Wyoming National Guard teamed up with the Colorado and South Dakota National Guard Counterdrug Aviation Teams to support the Drug Enforcement Administration’s 28th National Drug Take Back Day—a nationwide effort aimed at providing a safe, responsible way to dispose of unused prescription medications.

    For nearly 30 years, the DEA has hosted this event to help communities across the country reduce the risk of medication misuse and overdose. This year, Wyoming’s own Counterdrug Program members, Tech. Sgt. Shayne Andren and Sgt. 1st Class Ty Nieters, led the Guard’s efforts across the state.

    Why Drug Take Back Day Matters

    Nieters said unused prescriptions can often be the first step toward substance abuse.

    “Prescription drug misuse remains a major public health concern, with unused medications often becoming a gateway to addiction,” Nieters said.

    Research shows many cases of opioid misuse begin with drugs taken from family or friends. Drug Take Back Day helps break that cycle by encouraging proper disposal—and in doing so, it helps protect families and the environment from harm.

    A Unified Guard Effort

    Planning for the event spanned four months. Andren worked directly with the DEA to coordinate logistics, tapping into the National Guard’s regional network for help. Thanks to support from Colorado and South Dakota’s Counterdrug Aviation Programs, the team was able to move fast and efficiently.

    Using UH-72 Lakota helicopters, the aviation crews transported 1,639.25 pounds of unwanted medications from 20 participating law enforcement agencies across Wyoming.

    “This mission was about more than logistics: It was about ensuring the safe disposal of thousands of pounds of medication that could have otherwise contributed to substance misuse,” Andren said. “By working with multiple National Guard Counterdrug teams, we were able to take a proactive approach to prevention and strengthen partnerships for future initiatives.”

    Beyond Drug Take Back: Ongoing Prevention

    While Drug Take Back Day occurs every year, it’s just one piece of the Wyoming National Guard’s larger prevention strategy.

    The Drug Demand Reduction and Outreach or DDRO Team continues working year-round to educate communities, equip first responders, and support at-risk populations. Ongoing initiatives include:

    • Narcan Training: Helping first responders, community groups and families learn to reverse opioid overdoses.
    • Positive Action Training: Bringing proven prevention programs into schools and youth organizations to promote healthy behavior.
    • Hidden in Plain Sight Trailer: A mobile, interactive exhibit that shows parents and educators how to spot subtle signs of teen substance use.
    • DDRO Mobile App: A soon-to-launch resource offering educational tools and local prevention support right from your phone.

    “Our mission doesn’t stop at drug take back. This is just one piece of a larger strategy,” Nieters said. “The DDRO Team is committed to taking proactive steps to prevent substance misuse before it starts. Whether it’s educating families with hidden in plain sight or equipping first responders with Narcan training, we are focused on making a lasting impact.”

    As the fight against substance misuse evolves, the Wyoming National Guard continues to make an impact.

    “This operation was an excellent example of interagency collaboration at its finest,” said Brig. Gen. Michelle Mulberry, director of the joint staff for the Wyoming National Guard. “The teamwork displayed by Wyoming, Colorado and South Dakota National Guard units in coordination with the DEA showcases the importance of multi-state partnerships in addressing substance misuse prevention. The success of this mission sets a high standard for future prevention efforts.”

    New York City, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — As record heatwaves continue to sweep across the United States this summer, a newly upgraded device known as ChillWell 2.0 is making headlines as one of the most talked-about innovations in portable air cooling. Engineered with a focus on compact power, eco-responsibility, and user-first features, ChillWell 2.0 has quickly captured public attention—becoming a breakout product in both urban apartments and off-grid retreats.

    A Timely Solution in a Warming World

    With climate concerns dominating global discourse and utility costs steadily rising, American consumers in 2025 are seeking solutions that are both functional and forward-thinking. ChillWell 2.0’s launch enters this landscape with precise timing—offering an accessible, energy-efficient option that cools personal spaces without the complexity or cost of traditional HVAC systems.

    Early user reports and product demonstrations suggest the device delivers a blend of speed, portability, and customization that suits a broad range of indoor environments. Whether in a college dorm, home office, RV, or studio apartment, ChillWell 2.0 is making an impression on those searching for focused cooling relief.

    What Is ChillWell 2.0? A New Era of Personal Climate Control

    ChillWell 2.0 is a cordless, portable evaporative cooler that combines hydro-cooling technology with multi-speed airflow for adjustable climate control. Unlike wall-mounted air conditioners or heavy window units, this lightweight device can be placed on desks, nightstands, and countertops, offering direct, localized cooling where and when it’s needed most.

    Built with refillable cooling cartridges, quiet fan operation, and rechargeable battery power, ChillWell 2.0 is optimized for individual comfort—without reliance on centralized infrastructure. This makes it particularly appealing in scenarios where central air is absent, too expensive, or overburdened during extreme heat surges.

    The ChillWell Development Team: Innovation with Accessibility at Its Core

    According to official website, The ChillWell concept originated in response to widespread frustrations with limited options for cooling single rooms or personal spaces. The product team—composed of engineers, environmental designers, and product strategists—sought to close the gap between high-performance air conditioners and unreliable USB fans.

    In doing so, they prioritized:

    • Energy-conscious design
    • Water-based cooling mechanisms
    • USB-C fast charging
    • Tool-free operation

    The result is a unit designed not only for performance but also for simplicity—no hoses, no installation, no complicated apps. The vision behind ChillWell 2.0 was clear: to democratize access to functional cooling during peak heat seasons.

    ChillWell 2.0 Technology: Built for Simplicity and Performance

    What sets ChillWell 2.0 apart is its hybrid hydro-cooling core—a blend of water curtain filtration and fan-assisted vapor dispersion. As air passes through the moist cooling cartridge, it emerges cooler and more humidified, making it especially beneficial in dry or arid climates.

    Key technical features include:

    • Four fan speeds: Low, medium, high, and turbo for varying heat conditions
    • Personal cooling radius: Designed to affect a 3–5 foot zone, ideal for solo work or relaxation
    • Quiet operation: Maintains noise levels under 60 dB, making it suitable for bedrooms and workspaces
    • Cordless runtime: Up to 8 hours per charge depending on settings
    • Built-in LED nightlight: Optional ambient lighting for nighttime use

    This minimalist, plug-and-play system is one of the most adaptable on the market—empowering users to cool without structural alterations, wires, or technician support.

    Designed for the New American Lifestyle

    With an increasing number of people working remotely, traveling in vans, and downsizing to smaller living arrangements, ChillWell 2.0 aligns with lifestyle shifts that prioritize flexibility and function. Many users report using ChillWell during:

    • Zoom calls in home offices
    • Afternoon naps in sunlit bedrooms
    • Reading sessions on balconies or porches
    • Travel stops in RVs and campers

    Its USB-C compatibility and compact dimensions make it travel-ready and functional across a wide variety of power sources—including laptops, solar chargers, and power banks.

    Energy Efficiency Without Sacrificing Comfort

    One of the most attractive elements of ChillWell 2.0 is its energy footprint. With U.S. households spending hundreds of dollars on electricity during peak cooling months, ChillWell 2.0 presents an electricity-light alternative for reducing total energy usage.

    Estimates suggest ChillWell 2.0 consumes less than 10% of the electricity required by traditional air conditioners. This not only makes it budget-friendly for students, retirees, and renters, but also contributes positively toward carbon reduction goals for eco-conscious buyers.

    Summer 2025 Use Cases: From Coast to Coast

    As per official website reports show ChillWell 2.0 being adopted in various American climates:

    • Southwest States (Arizona, Nevada): Residents praise the device’s humidification feature during arid heatwaves.
    • East Coast Cities (New York, D.C.): Apartment dwellers appreciate its portability in buildings with strict AC regulations.
    • Midwest & Plains (Ohio, Kansas): Farmers and field workers use it as a cooling station inside barns or garages.
    • Florida & Gulf States: Users report enjoying ChillWell 2.0 on patios and porches during muggy evenings.

    Its cordless build and intuitive refill design allow it to be used virtually anywhere a USB port or charging block is available.

    How to Use ChillWell 2.0: Setup in Seconds

    Using ChillWell 2.0 requires no tools or professional setup. The process is designed to be quick:

    1. Unbox the unit and insert the cooling cartridge
    2. Fill the water reservoir with cool tap water
    3. Choose your fan speed and direction
    4. Recharge using the USB-C cable provided

    The water cartridge can be reused for weeks with regular rinsing, and users can add ice cubes to enhance the cooling effect in especially hot environments.

    How ChillWell 2.0 AC Works: A Simple Yet Effective Hydro-Cooling System

    According to official website, At the heart of ChillWell 2.0 is a hydro-chill evaporative cooling process—a method engineered to deliver rapid, focused comfort using water-based airflow mechanics.
    Unlike conventional air conditioners that rely on chemical refrigerants, ducts, or compressors, ChillWell 2.0 leverages natural water evaporation to lower air temperature in a compact zone around the user.
    Here’s how the technology works:

    1. Water Tank Activation – The user fills the built-in reservoir with cold tap water. For enhanced effect, ice cubes can be added to intensify cooling during extreme heat.
    2. Cooling Cartridge Engagement – The replaceable hydro-cooling cartridge absorbs the water and allows air to pass through its moisture-rich filter.
    3. Airflow & Fan Control – Once the device is powered on, an internal fan pulls in warm air from the environment and passes it through the wet cartridge.
    4. Evaporative Cooling Effect – As air moves through the damp filter, evaporation draws heat away from the air, lowering its temperature and re-releasing it as a cool, moistened breeze.
    5. Adjustable Climate Comfort – Users can choose from four fan speeds—Low, Medium, High, and Turbo—to adjust intensity, direction, and coverage based on their needs.

    Because it does not cool the entire room but rather creates a microclimate in a 3–5 foot radius, ChillWell 2.0 is ideal for personal spaces such as desks, bedsides, kitchen counters, RV tabletops, or reading nooks.
    The entire process uses minimal electricity and no chemical refrigerants, making it both eco-responsible and cost-conscious—a practical solution for modern users seeking immediate relief without increasing their power bill.

    Remote workers also appreciate ChillWell 2.0 for its unobtrusive sound, space-saving footprint, and portability between rooms. As flexible work becomes the norm, having a climate tool that adapts as quickly as the workday is invaluable.

    The Sustainability Angle: Reusable, Rechargeable, Minimal Waste

    Packaging is also eco-aware, with recyclable materials used in both the box and internal wrapping. In 2025, where conscious consumerism is top-of-mind, ChillWell 2.0 delivers comfort with minimal ecological cost.

    Consumer Demand, Availability & USA Rollout

    Since its launch in the United States, demand for ChillWell 2.0 has surged. Reports indicate a consistent sell-out cycle, especially in states facing frequent heat advisories.

    Its cordless runtime and USB-C compatibility allow it to function without fixed power sources, making it ideal for RV travelers, tailgaters, and campers using solar power banks or portable chargers. When positioned near outdoor seating or under covered gazebos, ChillWell 2.0 delivers a focused cooling zone that enhances comfort during peak heat—without requiring noisy generators or invasive installations.
    In a market flooded with large, power-hungry equipment, ChillWell 2.0 offers a minimalist alternative tailored for the modern, mobile lifestyle.

    Why College Students Are Choosing ChillWell This Summer

    In university dormitories and off-campus housing across the country, ChillWell 2.0 is rapidly becoming a seasonal essential among college students navigating the challenges of extreme heat in compact, shared living spaces.
    Many dormitories restrict window AC installations for safety or energy policy reasons, leaving students with limited cooling options during peak summer terms. ChillWell 2.0 provides a compliant, non-disruptive alternative that allows students to cool their personal zones without violating building guidelines or disturbing roommates.
    The appeal is rooted in its plug-and-play functionality and low power requirements—perfect for crowded desks, bunk beds, or study nooks with limited outlets. With rising awareness of climate impact and cost-consciousness among Gen Z consumers, students are gravitating toward ChillWell 2.0’s sustainable design, rechargeable battery, and water-based cooling mechanism.
    Beyond the dorm, the device travels easily to libraries, shared kitchens, summer internships, or co-working lounges—empowering students to create a comfort zone wherever they go. Compact enough to fit in a backpack and versatile enough to operate via laptop USB, ChillWell 2.0 is redefining how students approach summer survival on campus.
    As universities prepare for another record-hot season, ChillWell 2.0 is emerging as a must-have accessory for academic comfort and personal climate control.

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    NEWTON, Mass., June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HAProxy Technologies, the company behind HAProxy One, the world’s fastest application delivery and security platform, today announced a landmark achievement in the G2 Summer 2025 Grid® and Index Reports, showcasing unprecedented momentum and sustained leadership. The company was named a Leader in 24 Grid® Reports and five Momentum Grid® Reports. Along with an exceptional Satisfaction Score of 99 and badges including Best Results, Best Relationship, and Best Usability, HAProxy was recognized across multiple G2 categories with Leader positions in Load Balancing, DDoS Protection, Web Application Firewall (WAF), Web Security, API Management, Container Networking, and DevOps.

    HAProxy has the distinction of being named a Leader in every G2 category where it is listed, demonstrating the breadth and depth of the HAProxy One platform in comparison with traditional load balancing appliances, single-purpose security or API tools, and products that are available only as-a-service and in the cloud. HAProxy One is perfectly positioned to enable significant cost reduction, enhanced privacy and security, and new use cases such as LLM routing and cloud mesh.

    “HAProxy’s industry leadership tells a unique story of a company and community that are dedicated to user satisfaction, continually adapting to a changing tech landscape, with performance and security in the DNA of everything we do,” said Dujko Radovnikovic, CEO, HAProxy Technologies. “As a result, our unified platform delivers unbeatable value – as shown in the hundreds of user reviews on G2.”

    G2 category leadership builds on 2025 momentum

    These impressive results wrap up an outstanding Spring season for HAProxy Technologies, in which the company continued to build momentum in cloud native and security categories, while pushing the limits of performance at scale.

    HAProxy was created in 2001, and next year will celebrate its twenty-fifth anniversary. Speaking in his keynote at HAProxyConf earlier this month, Kelsey Hightower, a well-known technologist and cloud computing expert, said, “When you do something really well, for a really long time, you become legendary.”

    Also at HAProxyConf, Ben Meidell, Sr. Site Reliability Engineer at Roblox, showed how the immersive gaming and creation platform uses hundreds of HAProxy instances to manage and secure millions of requests per second. Commenting on the performance impact of HAProxy Enterprise WAF, Meidell said, “One of the big points about scaling up a web application firewall is the potential impact. We have been extremely impressed with the performance of HAProxy Enterprise WAF. When we first activated it, CPU increase was so negligible that I wondered if I’d made a mistake somewhere. But then I saw all the violations it was catching and realized just how effective it was.”

HAProxy’s support team sets a new standard.”

    These and other G2 user reviews show why HAProxy has become the most recommended enterprise-grade solution for high-performance traffic management, security, and observability.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Kamlager-Dove Delivers Fiery Remarks in Opposition to Trump’s Reckless Rescissions Package with Cuts to USAID, PBS

    Source: United States House of Representatives – Congresswoman Sydney Kamlager California (37th District)

    WASHINGTON, DC — Today, Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (CA-37) spoke on the House Floor in strong opposition to Trump’s rescissions package codifying DOGE’s cuts to USAID, PBS, and other Congressionally-appropriated funding. The package passed the House on a party-line vote of 214-212.

    The clawback of $9.4 billion in funding that House Republicans themselves voted for last Congress would cut programs that prevent deadly diseases and pandemics, support democracy abroad, create markets for American businesses, and provide trusted public news, emergency alerts, and educational programming. 

    Her remarks as delivered can be viewed here or read below: 

    “Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong opposition to this package. It is embarrassing, it is trifling. This is a funding package that Republicans actually agreed to and voted on last Congress when they were in the majority. Republicans must be missing Biden now because they actually had more influence under him than under Trump. 

    Now Republicans are going back on their own agreement and giving up their own power with this package. The real question is, why show up here if you have an orange daddy doing your work for you? 

    This vote actually puts every Republican on record as supporting Elon’s attack on democracy when even Steve Bannon said that Elon and DOGE found no waste. 

    With this package Republicans are one step closer to a country that looks more like the adversaries we profess to oppose. Americans will be left to clean up this mess. We will have zero standing in the international community and we will have zero claim to global leadership–while you all have killed off Elmo. 

    I urge my colleagues to vote no on this trash and I yield back.”

  • MIL-OSI USA: King, Blumenthal Call for Investigation into Cancelled Contracts Impacting Veterans

    US Senate News:

    Source: United States Senator for Maine Angus King

    WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Senator Angus King (I-ME) and Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee (SVAC) Ranking Member Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) are calling on the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Office of Inspector General to launch an investigation into the Trump Administration’s controversial, unilateral cancellation of VA contracts at the direction of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Despite multiple requests from Senators King and Blumenthal, VA Secretary Doug Collins refuses to send Congress the complete and updated list of VA contracts canceled or proposed for cancellation — a list Secretary Collins consistently touts in public hearings, on social media and in interviews.

    The Senators began, “We write to request the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Office of Inspector General (OIG) initiate a review of the mass cancellation of VA contracts launched by the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Secretary Collins, and other officials of the Department and the impact of these actions on veterans and VA operations. These activities began soon after January 20 and are ongoing.”

    “Since February of this year, Committee Minority staff have investigated these activities using public government contracting databases, internal VA documents, conducting interviews with VA employees and contractors, and other methods. The preliminary findings after analyzing more than 650 VA contracts ‘terminated for convenience’ between January 20 and May 30, 2025, extracted from federal contracting databases, are that a majority appear to be for services directly for veterans or critical VA operations to include for safe health care delivery,” wrote the Senators. While Collins and VA officials have refused to turn over the complete and updated list of contracts canceled, contract data is available online in near real time — including information on the cancellation of VA contracts.

    “To add to these alarming facts, recent media investigations, to include two stories released by ProPublica on June 6, have found evidence that DOGE and VA officials used ill-conceived Artificial Intelligence (AI) formulas and algorithms to make or inform contract cancellation decisions — cutting out meaningful input from VA career experts to assess the impact of ending these services. This adds an entire new level of unease connected to the decision-making, security, governance, and quality control of the entire process,” continued the senators. The damning reporting from ProPublica outlined in the letter exposes the careless nature of Secretary Collins and DOGE’s contract cancellation process at VA, including the use of flawed, error-prone AI tools to determine what contracts would be canceled.

    “However, this process which included cancelling hundreds of contracts, many in a several-day period, then restoring dozens just a few days later, is not an indication of good program management but rather waste, carelessness, and chaos. We are deeply concerned about how these cancellations, which are ongoing, are or will impact veterans’ health care, benefits, and other services; harm VA’s ability to perform oversight and program improvement; and eliminate or significantly hinder the availability of critical tools to maintain safe and clean facilities. A non-partisan and independent review of these matters is critical,” concluded the Senators.

    Representing one of the states with the highest rates of military families and veterans per capita, Senator King is a staunch advocate for America’s servicemembers and veterans. A member of the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee (SVAC), he works to ensure American veterans receive their earned benefits and that the VA is properly implementing various programs such as the PACT Actthe State Veterans Homes Domiciliary Care Flexibility Act, and the John Scott Hannon Act. Recently, in a letter to VA Secretary Doug Collins, Senator King joined his colleagues in urging for immediate action to secure veterans’ personal information provided by VA or other agencies to Elon Musk and his “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE), a measure that would protect millions of veterans’ medical records stored in VA’s computer systems. In addition, he helped pass the Veterans COLA Act, which increased benefits for 30,000 Maine veterans and their families.

    Recently, Senator King introduced bipartisan legislation alongside SVAC Chairman Senator Jerry Moran (R-KS) to improve care coordination for veterans who rely on both VA health care and Medicare. In February, Senator King was honored by the Disabled American Veterans as its 2025 Legislator of the Year. Last year, he was recognized by the Wounded Warrior Project as the 2024 Legislator of the Year for his “outstanding legislative effort and achievement to improve the lives of the wounded, ill, and injured veterans.” Senator King recently joined SVAC Ranking Member Senator Blumenthal in writing a letter to Secretary Collins raising concerns over proposed $1 spending limits on VA purchase cards which are used to pay for gas to transport disabled veterans to apportionments, buy medical supplies and more. Senator King also joined his colleagues in raising concerns over proposed plans to terminate 83,000 VA employees, and participated in a special investigative SVAC hearing to question witnesses who were terminated due to DOGE cuts. Last month, Senators King and Blumenthal wrote again to Secretary Collins demanding an explanation for DOGE cuts at VA that would impact health care for Maine veterans.

    The full text of letter can be found here or below.

    Dear Acting Inspector General Case,

    We write to request the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Office of Inspector General (OIG) initiate a review of the mass cancellation of VA contracts launched by the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Secretary Collins, and other officials of the Department and the impact of these actions on veterans and VA operations. These activities began soon after January 20 and are ongoing.

    Since February of this year, Committee Minority staff have investigated these activities using public government contracting databases, internal VA documents, conducting interviews with VA employees and contractors, and other methods.

    The preliminary findings after analyzing more than 650 VA contracts “terminated for convenience” between January 20 and May 30, 2025, extracted from federal contracting databases, are that a majority appear to be for services directly for veterans or critical VA operations to include for safe health care delivery. They include more than two dozen for medical supplies and equipment; four for cancer and tumor registries; more than 110 for construction and infrastructure services to include maintenance of boilers; prosthetics, including the conversion of a van for a veteran; more than 15 nursing home care contracts; more than 150 dealing with a wide range of quality of care, medical oversight, and hospital accreditation preparedness services; PACT Act implementation; and more. These are all areas that have been the subject of hundreds of OIG reports and investigations and known to be matters in which VA needs more support, not less. In addition, to date, no evidence has been provided by VA that any thoughtful contingency planning was put into place before these services were cancelled. Compounding our concerns are the hiring freeze, deferred resignations, terminations, and planned mass reductions of VA’s workforce that in theory is responsible for absorbing some of this work.

    To add to these alarming facts, recent media investigations, to include two stories released by ProPublica on June 6, have found evidence that DOGE and VA officials used ill-conceived Artificial Intelligence (AI) formulas and algorithms to make or inform contract cancellation decisions—cutting out meaningful input from VA career experts to assess the impact of ending these services. This adds an entire new level of unease connected to the decision-making, security, governance, and quality control of the entire process.

    As way of background, on February 24 and 25, 2025, Secretary Collins announced on social media his plan, carried out with Elon Musk and DOGE, to cancel hundreds of VA contracts he claimed were for “PowerPoint slides and meeting minutes” and indicated were valued at $2 billion. After directing career officials in the Department to start the cancellations, a list of more than 870 contracts was leaked to Congress and the media. The reality was that these contracts were predominantly for direct services for veterans or supporting VA operations including: suicide prevention and mental health treatment; disability claims processing, exams and auditing; radiology services; outreach regarding burial benefits and health care services; and contracts to conduct oversight activities to identify and prevent waste, fraud, and abuse.

    When the true content of mass contract cancellations was exposed, VA’s leadership team directed career officials to pause some cancellations. Public records show some contracts previously cancelled at the Secretary’s direction were then reversed while others remain cancelled and new contracts are being cancelled each week. On March 3, 2025, VA announced that instead of more than 870 contracts, it would cancel 585 contracts with an alleged value of $1.8 billion but provided no details. This has been a consistent pattern and problem. Despite repeated requests in letters to the Secretary, questions at hearings, and dozens of emails to VA officials, as of the date of this letter, the Department has not provided a single briefing or a complete and accurate list of the contracts it has cancelled, descoped, modified, or otherwise changed as part of this process or the underlying methodology, reasoning, and contingency planning. On May 16, VA provided Congress with a list of more than 445 contracts which it indicated were “terminated and closed.” This list was so riddled with errors and inaccuracies to call into question the veracity of the entire document.

    Since the beginning of this process, Secretary Collins and VA officials have repeatedly denied—without supporting evidence—that the cancellations will negatively affect veterans or VA operations, including saying:

    • “[t]he termination of these contracts will not negatively affect Veteran care, benefits or services, and will help VA better focus on its core mission: providing the best possible care and services to Veterans, their families, caregivers and survivors”, VA Press Release, March 3, 2025;
    • “as part of its review, VA career subject-matter expert employees responsible for the contract cancelations were given the option to stop a cancellation if they felt it would negatively impact health care, benefits or services for Veterans or VA beneficiaries”, VA Press Release, March 3, 2025;
    • “VA will not cancel contracts for work that provides services to veterans or that the agency cannot do itself without a contingency plan in place”, VA Spokesperson, “DOGE Developed Error-Prone AI Tool to “Munch” Veterans Affairs Contracts,” ProPublica, June 6, 2025;
    • “[c]ontracts that directly support Veterans, beneficiaries or provide services VA cannot do itself, such as a nurse who sees patients or an organization that provides third-party certification services, respectively, were not canceled. Contracts that involved services VA has the ability to perform itself were typically canceled”, Secretary Collins, letter to Congress, May 2, 2025.

    Based on these findings and information, we ask VA OIG to conduct a review of these matters which may include a focus on:

    • the impact of these cancellations on veterans, their families, caregivers and survivors health care, benefits, memorial affairs and related services;
    • the impact of these cancellations on VA operations such as quality of care oversight, patient safety, accreditation, medical supplies and equipment, IT security, research, construction and maintenance;
    • the use of AI and/or algorithms to guide decision-making to include the recipient and purpose each VA contract identified by DOGE VA employee Mr. Sahil Lavingia that has been terminated; the formal assignment and instructions given to Mr. Lavingia with respect to assessment of VA contracts to include whether they included the use of AI and the approval of relevant code; the data integrity and protection measures taken, if any, to ensure the safeguarding of any personally identifiable information; and the extent to which this and any other related use of AI by DOGE or the VA violated any policy, procedure, regulation, or statute;
    • the extent, timing, and substantive involvement, if any, of VA career subject matter experts in the decision-making regarding cancellations;
    • the existence of contingency plans to replace the services prior to contract cancellations;
    • an identification of the contracts cancelled, descoped, stopped or allowed to expire at part of this mass cancellation effort;
    • the financial transfer of funding from cancelled contracts to other VA activities; and
    • other relevant matters as determined by VA OIG

    We firmly support VA efforts to regularly review services procured by the Department and that process should be built into any functioning acquisition and program management operation at VA. However, this process, which included cancelling hundreds of contracts, many in a several-day period, then restoring dozens just a few days later, is not an indication of good program management but rather waste, carelessness, and chaos. We are deeply concerned about how these cancellations, which are ongoing, are or will impact veterans’ health care, benefits, and other services; harm VA’s ability to perform oversight and program improvement; and eliminate or significantly hinder the availability of critical tools to maintain safe and clean facilities.

    A non-partisan and independent review of these matters is critical. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

    Sincerely,

  • MIL-OSI China: Scientists join classrooms to inspire teenagers to become innovators

    Source: People’s Republic of China – State Council News

    Peking University life sciences professor Zhang Yan, who has been researching Alzheimer’s disease for two decades, has taken on a new mission this semester: educating young teens.

    Beyond lectures and experiments, Zhang is committed to giving her young students an authentic glimpse into the world of scientific research. She believes such hands-on learning should begin early in basic education, and as a scientist, she sees it as her responsibility to contribute.

    Zhang is one of thousands of researchers to be appointed as a “vice principal of science” — a position introduced by China’s Ministry of Education two years ago, in an initiative aiming to ensure every primary and secondary school engages the services of at least one scientific researcher from a university, research institute or technology company to strengthen science education.

    Scientist-led classes

    Dressed in a T-shirt and jeans, sipping milk tea and switching seamlessly between Chinese and English, Zhang teaches her middle school students much like she does her doctoral candidates in university labs.

    This casual approach is the first message she hopes to convey: scientists are not always solemn, bookish or eccentric. During her first lecture at Beijing Guangqumen Middle School in late May, she said that in reality, many scientists have diverse interests, lead balanced lives and possess both intellectual and emotional intelligence.

    Similarly, Zhang seeks to dispel another common misconception about careers in science: success comes solely from hard work, much like scoring high in college entrance exams.

    “You may spend years with few breakthroughs, and that is the first challenge scientists must face — learning to deal with frustration,” she said in English during a recent class.

    Her students listened carefully, not distracted by phones or computers. They are preparing to enter senior high school after their summer vacation, and in three years, they will choose a university and a major.

    “The earlier they learn, the more they benefit,” Zhang said, noting that understanding scientific careers as teens will help them make choices in the future.

    Using examples ranging from the discovery of penicillin to the gene-editing of white mice in labs, Zhang also encouraged her young students to develop habits of critical thinking, questioning authority and pursuing lifelong learning.

    Next month, she plans to take them to her university lab, where they will observe and conduct basic scientific experiments.

    “They will experience real scientific work,” she said.

    National push

    To make classes more engaging, researchers nationwide are adopting diverse approaches. Besides lab experiments, some organize field expeditions or showcase models of scientific facilities such as lunar probes, submarines and large telescopes.

    The study of emerging technologies like AI and humanoid robots has also made its way into classrooms, becoming part of the content being taught by scientists.

    Tasked with more than teaching, these vice principals of science also help schools with science curriculum planning, teacher training and bringing in scientific resources, forming part of the country’s broader picture of science education.

    Since 2023, under a national “double reduction” policy launched in 2021 to ease the burdens of excessive homework and off-campus tutoring that students face in their compulsory education years, greater emphasis has been placed on enhancing science education and nurturing young people with both the potential to become scientists and aspirations to dedicate themselves to scientific research.

    According to a January report by the state broadcaster CCTV citing the latest data from the Ministry of Education, 45 percent of primary and secondary schools have appointed a vice principal specializing in science over the past two years.

    Schools are also striving to nurture their own science teaching staff. Beijing Haidian Aerospace Tuqiang Primary School, for example, employs 15 full-time or part-time science teachers. The number of science teachers in the country’s junior high schools has increased by more than 8,400 nationwide, and by over 28,000 in senior high schools.

    And technology firms are also joining this national push for improved science education. Leading AI company iFlytek has launched study tour programs to showcase its voice-recognition tools and robots to students, and carmaker Geely has opened its workshops to students, allowing young people to learn about the manufacturing process of new energy vehicles.

    Duty of educators

    However, serving as a school educator does not offer extra pay or benefits for her research work, Zhang said. “It is purely driven by a sense of duty.”

    China has intensified efforts to encourage scientist participation in science education. A revised Science and Technology Popularization Law came into effect last year and introduced concrete measures, such as those on professional recognition and evaluation, to reward researchers for public engagement.

    Zeng Fankui, a researcher at the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is passionate about popularizing his potato studies and serves as vice principal of science at three local schools.

    He applauds the progress the country has made in science education, but points to some problems: many rural schools lack proper science equipment and specialized teachers, and traditional mindsets that prioritize rote learning over scientific thinking remain.

    Xiong Bingqi, dean of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, said that the goal of the vice principal of science role is to cultivate true scientific literacy.

    “If science classes only assign mechanical exercises, AI could replace them,” he warned, adding that science education should shift focus from knowledge delivery to the cultivation of self-directed learning and nurturing innovation.

    Students crammed with scientific knowledge alone will find it difficult to adapt to the rapid changes of the future, Xiong said.

  • MIL-OSI China: AIIB’s first decade marks a path of multilateral, sustainable development

    Source: People’s Republic of China – State Council News

    As the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) marks its 10th anniversary, the multilateral development bank is playing an increasingly prominent role in advancing connectivity, green growth, and sustainable development across regions.

    Founded in 2015, AIIB has grown from 57 founding members to 110 across six continents, covering 81 percent of the world’s population and 65 percent of global GDP.

    Over the past decade, it has approved over 60 billion U.S. dollars in financing for 320 projects, leveraging more than 200 billion U.S. dollars in infrastructure investment.

    From electrifying rural Bangladesh to building roads in Cote d’Ivoire, AIIB-supported projects are narrowing infrastructure gaps and improving lives across continents.

    Infrastructure transforming lives

    In Padmo Para village near Dhaka, Bangladesh, local resident Najma Aktar recalls a time when her family studied by the light of a kerosene lamp. That changed in 2016, when the AIIB provided a 165 million U.S. dollar loan to upgrade the local power grid.

    As the bank’s first standalone financed investment, it brought electricity to 12.5 million rural residents, transforming their daily lives.

    By the end of 2024, AIIB has supported over 51,000 kilometers of transport infrastructure — enough to circle the Earth more than once — and benefited more than 410 million people.

    In Indonesia, AIIB supported the upgrading of urban slums, improving the lives of nearly 10 million people. In China’s Yunnan Province, airport expansion enhanced flower exports and boosted farmers’ incomes by 25 percent. In Uzbekistan, AIIB helped extend access to clean water for 660,000 residents.

    “AIIB’s concrete actions have effectively helped bridge global infrastructure investment gaps, advanced regional development, and contributed positively to global economic growth,” said Lu Feng, professor at Peking University.

    Multilateral platform for cooperation

    “AIIB was established on the principles of multilateralism and high international standards,” the bank’s president Jin Liqun told Xinhua in a recent interview, noting that these principles have enabled the bank to earn broad trust and participation across the globe.

    AIIB’s investments span not only Asia but also Africa, Latin America, and beyond, reflecting its commitment to promoting global sustainable development.

    “Asia cannot thrive in isolation,” Jin said, noting that while the bank’s primary focus is Asia, its work also supports broader cooperation that contributes to meaningful development outcomes around the world.

    Reflecting this vision, AIIB has actively expanded its global partnerships and collaborative financing efforts. It is now the largest co-financing partner of the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank, and has built partnerships with over 100 organizations, including multilateral and regional institutions, policy banks, private sector players and philanthropy foundations.

    On the capital markets side, AIIB had issued over 54 billion U.S. dollars equivalent bonds in multiple currencies as of the end of May, and has consistently maintained triple-A credit ratings from Moody’s, S&P, and Fitch. Moody’s, for instance, credited the bank’s top rating to its strong financial footing, well-performing assets, and ample liquidity.

    “AIIB has become a new model for multilateral cooperation through its innovative operations and collaborative approach,” said Bai Chong’en, dean of the School of Economics and Management at Tsinghua University, noting its flexible and pragmatic support for infrastructure development in developing countries.

    Investing in infrastructure for tomorrow

    Amid rising global challenges, AIIB is positioning itself as a future-oriented development bank that supports both traditional and digital infrastructure for the long haul.

    In 2020, the bank launched its corporate strategy themed “Infrastructure for Tomorrow,” with priorities including green infrastructure, technology-enabled infrastructure, connectivity and cross-border cooperation, and private capital mobilization.

    By 2025, at least 50 percent of its approved financing was expected to support climate-related projects, a target the bank achieved in 2022, three years ahead of schedule.

    In Cote d’Ivoire, an AIIB-financed rural road project approved in 2023 has made it easier for villagers to reach hospitals and sell cashews and cocoa, even during flood seasons. Local project coordinator Gilbert Ekpini said residents were thrilled with the changes.

    By the end of 2024, AIIB-supported projects had added 21.3 gigawatts of installed power generation capacity of renewable energy, helping to reduce nearly 30 million tonnes of CO2-equivalent greenhouse gas emissions annually.

    The bank is increasingly helping its members embrace the digital era. Last year, AIIB launched InfraTech Portal, a digital platform that shares comprehensive, neutral and free information on infrastructure technologies.

    “Artificial intelligence holds vast potential and offers developing countries an opportunity to leap ahead in their development,” Jin said.

    “That’s why our infrastructure investments must evolve with the times. We should ensure that emerging technologies like AI help narrow, but not widen, the digital divide, especially for the developing world,” he added.

  • MIL-OSI Europe: ASIA/CAMBODIA – Apostolic Prefect of Battambang on the closure of the border with Thailand: “The crisis affects ordinary people above all”

    Wiki Commons gary4now

    Battambang (Agenzia Fides) – The government of Cambodia has confirmed that the Thai army unilaterally closed all border crossings with Cambodia on the night of June 23. According to the Thai army, border crossings in six Thai provinces bordering Cambodia have been closed, with few exceptions for students or people receiving medical treatment. All other human or vehicle traffic is currently prohibited. The closure is the latest in a series of reprisals that have intensified since the border incident on May 28, in which a Cambodian soldier was killed in gunfire in the so-called “Emerald Triangle,” a small green area on the border between Thailand, Cambodia, and Laos.It is one of several disputed regions that both Thailand and Cambodia claim as part of their territory. The two armies accused each other of firing first. On June 7, the Thai army temporarily closed the border and then reduced its opening hours. On June 12, Cambodia announced the suspension of electricity imports and closed the international border at Daung, in Battambang province, for “security reasons.”Thailand and Cambodia are separated by a border approximately 820 kilometers long, which runs through several disputed territories. “This dispute has existed for more than a century and dates back to the time of the French colonial empire,” explains Bishop Enrique Figaredo, Apostolic Prefect of Battambang (Cambodia), in an interview with Fides.”The parties involved are basing their decision on a map from 1907, which France, which occupied Cambodia as a colonial power until 1953, first used to draw the border between the two countries. Thailand argues that the map is not binding. Cambodia has appealed to the International Court of Justice to determine the territorial ownership of four disputed territories. Thailand also does not agree to appeal to the Court,” the Prefect said.”It should be noted that this crisis,” he added, “is causing hardship and inconvenience for ordinary people. The border between Cambodia and Thailand is indeed very porous and is constantly crossed by a lively trade and workers. The closure of the border blocks the flow of people and goods, so vital to social, economic, and cultural life.” Bishop Figaredo says that many people in the province of Battambang, the territory of his apostolic prefecture, are affected by these flows. “The local people are experiencing this phase with great disappointment, surprise, and confusion,” he notes. “There are also hundreds of displaced people, people stuck on the other side of the border who cannot return home,” he says. The dispute has aroused nationalist sentiments in both countries. Thailand has banned tourists and Thai citizens from visiting or working in Poipet, a Cambodian city whose economy relies on the presence of eight casinos frequented almost exclusively by Thai citizens. In this context, Thailand has also included security measures to paralyze transnational criminal activities in the dispute with Cambodia, as declared by Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra.The measures against fraud centers were implemented in early 2025, when Thailand cut off electricity, internet, and fuel supplies to some areas of Myanmar where cyber fraud activities were taking place. Thailand and Cambodia jointly dismantled a fraud center that housed hundreds of trafficked foreign workers in the city of Poipet. Cyber fraud and so-called “scam cities” have spread throughout Southeast Asia, especially in Laos, Cambodia, and Myanmar. (PA) (Agenzia Fides, 24/6/2025)

  • MIL-OSI: BarxBuddy 2025: This Dog Training Device Gains Momentum Among Pet Owners, According to Reports

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Phoenix, AZ, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In a year marked by increasing interest in at-home pet solutions, the BarxBuddy ultrasonic dog training device has gained renewed momentum among pet owners across the United States. This behavioral training tool—designed to deter excessive barking and help reinforce positive habits—has become one of the most talked-about non-invasive pet training products in 2025, according to new industry analyses.

    The BarxBuddy device utilizes a high-frequency ultrasonic tone, imperceptible to human ears, which captures a dog’s attention without causing physical harm or distress. Marketed as a humane alternative to shock collars and more aggressive behavioral correction techniques, BarxBuddy has positioned itself at the intersection of modern training philosophy and technological simplicity.
    Surge in Adoption Reflects Broader Shift in Dog Training Trends
    Data emerging from multiple online retail channels and behavioral study groups suggests a broader shift in how pet owners approach canine discipline. Where previous decades favored punitive correction models, the modern era has seen a sharp pivot toward non-violent reinforcement.
    BarxBuddy’s appeal lies in its compact design and ease of use. Requiring no specialized training, the device allows pet owners to press a single button to emit the corrective tone. It has been particularly popular among urban dog owners who face challenges with excessive barking in high-density living environments.
    A 2025 trend analysis by CanineTech Insights indicated a 32% increase in the use of ultrasonic bark deterrent tools over the last 12 months, with BarxBuddy leading the segment in brand recognition and reported effectiveness.
    Technology Rooted in Behavioral Science
    At the core of the BarxBuddy device is a simple but deliberate mechanism: a focused ultrasonic pulse that interrupts undesirable behavior by redirecting the dog’s attention. The principle draws on operant conditioning, a well-documented psychological framework that encourages behavior modification through stimulus and consequence.
    Unlike shock-based systems, which have drawn increasing scrutiny from veterinary ethics boards, ultrasonic tools are gaining favor for their minimal invasiveness. While not all dogs respond identically to ultrasonic tones—a point echoed by several animal behaviorists—the consistency of results across varied breeds has bolstered interest from both first-time pet owners and experienced trainers.
    Veterinary Community Shows Cautious Optimism
    While some segments of the veterinary and training communities remain cautious in endorsing any at-home corrective tool, many professionals acknowledge the utility of ultrasonic devices when used correctly. Emphasis remains on pairing any corrective action with positive reinforcement and avoiding overuse.
    Dr. Elaine Moretti, a behavioral veterinarian based in New Jersey, notes that tools like BarxBuddy “can provide a useful starting point for dog owners struggling with minor behavioral issues, especially barking, jumping, or lunging.”
    However, she also underscores the need for comprehensive care: “No tool should replace responsible training, regular exercise, and proper socialization.”

    How Does BarxBuddy Work?

    According to the official product website BarxBuddy device works by emitting an ultrasonic sound that instantly captures a dog’s attention. This frequency, while inaudible to humans, is calibrated to be safe yet noticeable for most dogs. When activated during moments of undesirable behavior—such as barking, jumping, or lunging—the tone interrupts the action and redirects the dog’s focus.

    Accompanying the sound is a built-in LED light, which serves both as a visual cue and a practical tool during evening walks. This multimodal design supports behavioral training by engaging multiple senses in a gentle, non-confrontational way.

    Experts advise pairing the device’s use with verbal commands and rewards to reinforce good behavior. With regular use, dogs are expected to associate negative behavior with the ultrasonic tone and adapt accordingly.

    Who Is the BarxBuddy Anti-Barking Device For?

    BarxBuddy is designed for a broad audience of dog owners looking for a humane, user-friendly approach to behavioral training. The device is particularly well-suited for:

    • Urban dog owners managing noise concerns in apartment buildings
    • First-time pet owners unfamiliar with traditional training tools
    • Busy individuals seeking a quick-response option for spontaneous training moments
    • Pet parents with sensitive or small-breed dogs who may not respond well to harsher methods

    While effective for many breeds and behavior types, BarxBuddy is best used as part of a holistic training plan that includes praise, treats, and consistency. It is not intended for use on dogs with hearing impairments or extreme behavioral aggression without professional oversight.

    Consumer Demand Reflects Broader Interest in DIY Pet Solutions
    BarxBuddy’s rise mirrors a growing trend among consumers seeking convenient, at-home alternatives to formal obedience training. According to data from the American Pet Products Association (APPA), spending on training aids and behavioral tools increased 18% in the past fiscal year, outpacing the growth of in-person dog training services.
    The uptick is attributed to rising pet ownership during the post-pandemic years and an accompanying desire for accessible, time-saving solutions. BarxBuddy, with its one-touch functionality and portability, appears well-positioned to meet this demand.
    Increased Media Attention and Retail Availability
    As media outlets across the U.S. cover the surge in interest, BarxBuddy has expanded its availability through a growing network of e-commerce platforms. Initially sold exclusively through its official website, the device is now accessible through select retail affiliates and direct-to-consumer marketplaces.
    Public interest was further amplified by media coverage earlier this year highlighting BarxBuddy in consumer advocacy segments focusing on humane pet care. These features emphasized the product’s non-invasive nature, battery efficiency, and built-in flashlight for nighttime visibility.
    Public Discourse and Social Sentiment
    Online discourse surrounding BarxBuddy continues to grow, with a mix of endorsements, debates, and case studies circulating in digital forums. While advocates praise its simplicity and quick impact, some skeptics raise concerns over its long-term behavioral impact without complementary training.
    Nonetheless, the dominant narrative has remained largely favorable, especially among pet owners looking for tools that don’t rely on pain-based deterrents. This sentiment aligns with a 2025 YouGov survey, which found that 71% of dog owners prefer behavioral correction devices that do not use electric shocks or pronged pressure.
    How to Start Using BarxBuddy
    According to the official product website, Getting started with BarxBuddy requires no professional training or special setup. Pet owners can begin using the device by following these steps:

    1. Insert the batteries that come included with the device.
    2. Hold the device comfortably in hand and keep it within reach when around your dog.
    3. Wait for a behavioral trigger, such as barking, jumping, or aggression.
    4. Press the ultrasonic button while pointing the device toward the dog. Use a firm voice command such as “Stop” or “Quiet” simultaneously.
    5. Reinforce positive behavior by offering praise or a treat after the dog responds appropriately.

    The key is consistency—using the device regularly while pairing it with encouragement ensures long-term success. BarxBuddy can also be used during walks or playtime to prevent unwanted behaviors from developing.
    Compliance and Safety Considerations
    The BarxBuddy device complies with consumer safety standards applicable to non-contact ultrasonic equipment. Independent safety testing has verified that the decibel range used in the product falls within established auditory safety margins for canines.
    Manufacturers continue to advise users to limit deployment to short training intervals and to combine its use with praise-based reinforcement. Importantly, usage guidelines recommend avoiding activation near overly anxious or noise-sensitive dogs without prior behavioral consultation.
    Looking Ahead: Future Iterations and Expansion Plans
    Sources close to the manufacturing team have indicated that future iterations of the BarxBuddy may include customizable frequency settings and app-based integration to monitor behavioral responses. These developments are aimed at personalizing the training process while collecting anonymous user feedback to inform design enhancements.
    In anticipation of growing international demand, distribution channels are also being explored in Canada, Australia, and select European markets. As pet care standards evolve globally, products like BarxBuddy are likely to play an increasingly visible role in shaping at-home training norms.

    Features of the BarxBuddy Ultrasonic Device
    As per official product website BarxBuddy stands out due to its blend of functionality, safety, and design. Key features include:

    • Ultrasonic Frequency (Non-Audible to Humans): Specifically calibrated to get dogs’ attention without causing harm.
    • LED Flashlight: Integrated light adds visibility for nighttime walks and offers an additional visual stimulus during training.
    • Compact, Handheld Design: Lightweight and easy to carry during daily activities or walks.
    • One-Button Operation: Simplifies the training process for beginners and experienced owners alike.
    • Battery Operated: Ensures portability without needing frequent recharging.
    • Non-Contact Training Method: Provides a safe alternative to prong, shock, or vibration collars.

    Together, these features create a training solution that is both pet-friendly and owner-approved.
    Conclusion: A Marker of a Changing Pet Landscape
    BarxBuddy’s emergence as a favored solution among dog owners reflects a broader societal embrace of humane, technology-assisted pet training tools. While no single device offers a cure-all for behavioral challenges, the rise of products like BarxBuddy signifies a noteworthy pivot in how Americans think about pet discipline in the digital age.
    As training philosophies continue to evolve, devices that merge science-backed methodology with ease of use may redefine the future of responsible dog ownership.

  • MIL-OSI: Nearly Half of Companies Opt to Pay the Ransom, Sophos Report Finds

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    OXFORD, United Kingdom, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sophos, a global leader of innovative security solutions for defeating cyberattacks, today released its sixth annual State of Ransomware report, a vendor-agnostic survey of IT and cybersecurity leaders across 17 countries that studies the impact of ransomware attacks on businesses. This year’s survey found that nearly 50% of companies paid the ransom to get their data back – the second highest rate of ransom payment for ransom demands in six years.

    Despite the high percentage of companies that paid the ransom, over half – 53% – paid less than the original demand. In 71% of cases where the companies paid less, they did so through negotiation – either through their own negotiations or with help from a third party. In fact, while the median ransom demand dropped by a third between 2024 and 2025, the median ransom payment dropped by 50%, illustrating how companies are becoming more successful at minimizing the impact of ransomware.

    Overall, the median ransom payment was one million dollars, although the initial demand varied significantly depending on organization size and revenue. The median ransom demand for companies with over $1 billion in revenue was five million dollars, while organizations with $250 million revenue or less, saw median ransom demands of less than $350,000.

    For the third year in a row, exploited vulnerabilities were the number one technical root cause of attacks, while 40% of ransomware victims said adversaries took advantage of a security gap that they were not aware of – highlighting organizations’ ongoing struggle to see and secure their attack surface. Overall, 63% of organizations said resourcing issues were a factor in them falling victim to the attack, with lack of expertise named as the top operational cause in organizations with more than 3,000 people and lack of people/capacity most frequently cited by those with 251-500 employees.

    “For many organizations, the chance of being compromised by ransomware actors is just a part of doing business in 2025. The good news is that, thanks to this increased awareness, many companies are arming themselves with resources to limit damage. This includes hiring incident responders who can not only lower ransom payments but also speed up recovery and even stop attacks in progress,” says Chester Wisniewski, director, field CISO, Sophos.

    “Of course, ransomware can still be ‘cured’ by tackling the root causes of attacks: exploited vulnerabilities, lack of visibility into the attack surface, and too few resources. We’re seeing more companies recognize they need help and moving to Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services for defense. MDR coupled with proactive security strategies, such as multifactor authentication and patching, can go a long way in preventing ransomware from the start.”

    Additional Key Findings from the State of Ransomware 2025 Report:

    • More Companies are Stopping Attacks in Progress: 44% of companies were able to stop the ransomware attack before data was encrypted – a six-year high. Data encryption was also at a six-year low with only half of companies having their data encrypted.
    • Backup Use is Down: Only 54% of companies used backups to restore their data – the lowest percentage in six years.
    • Silver Lining: Ransomware Payments and Recovery Costs are on the Decline: The average cost of recovery dropped from $2.73 million in 2024, to $1.53 million in 2025. While ransom payments are high, they declined by 50% from $2 million in 2024 to $1 million in 2025.
    • Ransom Payments Vary by Industry: State and local government reported paying the highest median amount ($2.5 million), while healthcare reported the lowest ($150,000).
    • Companies are Getting Faster at Recovery: Over half (53%) of organizations fully recovered from a ransomware attack in a week – up from 35% last year. Only 18% took more than a month to recover – down from 34% in 2024.

    Sophos recommends the following best practices to help organizations defend against ransomware and other cyberattacks:

    • Take steps to eliminate common technical and operational root causes of attacks, such as exploited vulnerabilities. Tools like Sophos Managed Risk can help companies access their risk profile and minimize their exposure.
    • Ensure all endpoints (including servers) are well-defended with dedicated anti-ransomware protection.
    • Have an incident response plan in place and tested for when things go wrong. Have good backups and practice restoring data regularly.
    • Companies need around-the-clock monitoring and detection. If they do not have the resources in-house for this, they can work with a trusted managed detection and response (MDR) provider.

    Data for the State of Ransomware 2025 report comes from a vendor-agnostic survey of 3,400 IT and cybersecurity leaders in organizations that were hit by ransomware in the previous year. Organizations surveyed ranged from 100 – 5,000 employees and across 17 countries. The survey was conducted between January and March 2025, and respondents were asked about their experience of ransomware over the previous 12 months. Sophos will be releasing additional industry findings throughout the year.

  • MIL-OSI: LeptiCell 2025: This Natural Metabolism Support Supplement Gains Momentum in Weight Management Circles, According to Reports

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    New York City, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In a wellness industry marked by rapid innovation and increasing consumer demand for effective, natural solutions, LeptiCell has emerged as a notable name in the metabolic health space. According to recent reports and market trend analyses, this metabolism support supplement is quietly reshaping how consumers approach weight management in 2025.

    While the weight-loss market continues to evolve beyond stimulants and crash diets, LeptiCell distinguishes itself by aligning with modern preferences for non-stimulant, plant-based, and science-informed supplements. Its rise in popularity is not the result of flashy advertisements or overnight hype but rather the cumulative trust of a steadily growing user base and a formulation that appears to reflect the changing priorities of today’s health-focused population.

    Who Developed LeptiCell?

    According to the official product website (https:://lepticell.com/) LeptiCell was formulated by a team of nutritional scientists, endocrinologists, and holistic wellness experts committed to creating a sustainable approach to metabolic health. The development was spearheaded by Nutrivanta Labs, a U.S.-based research group known for its focus on hormone health and nutritional synergy.
    According to the development team, the goal behind LeptiCell was to formulate a supplement that specifically supports leptin sensitivity—believed to be a core factor in appetite regulation and energy utilization. Drawing from both modern clinical insights and time-tested plant compounds, the creators emphasized safe, natural, and non-stimulant pathways for metabolic support.

    A Shift Toward Natural Metabolic Support

    As global interest in holistic health intensifies, so too has the appetite for metabolic support that doesn’t rely on harsh stimulants. LeptiCell’s positioning as a non-stimulant metabolism support supplement appears to resonate particularly well among individuals seeking to enhance their body’s natural energy balance, regulate appetite, and improve fat metabolism without compromising mood or cardiovascular health.

    Nutritional biochemist and wellness researcher Dr. Karen Elston of the Institute for Nutritional Science notes:

    “The popularity of LeptiCell reflects a larger movement we’re observing—a pivot away from synthetic quick-fix formulas toward natural blends that work with the body’s metabolic pathways rather than override them. Consumers are smarter and more skeptical, and they want their supplements to support long-term wellness.”

    What’s Behind the Buzz?

    At the core of LeptiCell’s appeal is its unique formula. While proprietary in nature, the brand discloses its key active ingredients, which include naturally sourced metabolic regulators believed to aid leptin sensitivity, appetite control, and fat utilization.

    Although the formulation remains confidential in its exact proportions, reports highlight the inclusion of:

    • African Mango Extract – Often cited for its potential to support leptin signaling and fat metabolism.
    • Green Tea Leaf Extract – A source of catechins that may assist thermogenic activity.
    • Chromium Picolinate – Commonly used for blood sugar support and appetite modulation.
    • Garcinia Cambogia – Recognized for its hydroxycitric acid content, which some studies associate with reduced hunger.
    • Vitamin B Complex – Contributing to normal energy-yielding metabolism and reduced fatigue.

    According to official website, the careful combination of these ingredients may explain why users report feeling more in control of their appetite and experiencing steadier energy levels throughout the day.

    How Does LeptiCell Work?

    According to the official product website, LeptiCell is designed to support the body’s natural metabolism by enhancing leptin function, balancing appetite hormones, and promoting efficient fat utilization. Leptin is a hormone produced by fat cells that signals the brain when the body has sufficient energy stored, helping to regulate hunger and energy expenditure.
    Many individuals struggling with weight management may be experiencing what researchers term “leptin resistance,” where the body produces leptin, but the brain no longer responds to it properly—leading to constant hunger and inefficient fat burning.
    LeptiCell aims to support this system through three primary mechanisms:

    1. Leptin Sensitivity Support – Ingredients such as African Mango and chromium are believed to help the body become more responsive to leptin signals, reducing persistent hunger and food cravings.
    2. Metabolic Efficiency – Green tea extract and B vitamins contribute to thermogenesis and cellular energy production, helping the body burn calories more efficiently.
    3. Appetite Regulation – Compounds like Garcinia Cambogia and fiber-rich botanicals help reduce emotional and stress-based eating by promoting feelings of fullness.

    Together, these pathways create a framework for metabolic balance that doesn’t rely on aggressive stimulants or crash-diet tactics. Users often report more stable energy levels, fewer cravings, and a more sustainable approach to maintaining a healthy body composition.

    Market Trends Signal Broader Adoption

    LeptiCell’s rise coincides with macro trends across both the health supplement and weight management industries. According to data from the U.S. Dietary Supplement Association, 2024–2025 has seen a 38% increase in demand for non-stimulant metabolism aids, particularly among adults aged 30–55.

    A spokesperson from Natural Insights Weekly, a wellness industry trend tracker, remarked:

    “LeptiCell is gaining attention not because it’s trying to reinvent the wheel, but because it’s quietly delivering on what people are actually looking for—support for their natural biology. The blend of appetite modulation, energy balance, and real-world usability seems to be working.”

    The Science of Leptin and Its Role in Weight Regulation

    Why Leptin Matters More Than You Think
    In recent years, leptin has become a focal point in metabolic research. Known as the “satiety hormone,” leptin plays a critical role in telling the brain when the body has enough stored energy. LeptiCell’s formulation is built on this foundational principle—supporting the body’s ability to respond effectively to leptin signals.
    Understanding this mechanism gives users a deeper grasp of why traditional diets fail and how supporting leptin function can offer a more sustainable path to weight wellness.

    Consumer Stories Add to the Momentum

    What sets LeptiCell apart from many of its contemporaries is not only its formulation but also the grassroots nature of its visibility. Consumers, particularly within wellness forums and online communities, have begun to share anecdotal accounts of how LeptiCell fits into their health routines.

    Monica J., 42, from Charlotte, NC, noted in a user forum:

    “I didn’t expect much at first, but after four weeks of taking LeptiCell in the mornings, I noticed a subtle but noticeable improvement in my cravings. I wasn’t reaching for snacks between meals as often. My energy didn’t spike or crash—it just stayed steady.”

    Andre M., 36, from San Diego, CA, wrote:

    “I’ve tried fat burners before, and they made me jittery. LeptiCell felt different—more like a support system. It hasn’t changed my lifestyle, but it complements it.”

    These reports, while anecdotal, have become increasingly common on third-party review sites and weight management discussion groups. As word-of-mouth continues to build, LeptiCell is benefiting from an organic form of trust—social proof without the overt push of traditional advertising.

    LeptiCell and the Rise of Non-Stimulant Formulas

    A Growing Trend Among Health-Conscious Consumers
    Caffeine-heavy fat burners once dominated the market, but rising concerns over side effects—such as insomnia, irritability, and rapid heart rate—have shifted consumer interest. LeptiCell’s stimulant-free approach places it firmly in the new category of calm, consistent metabolic support.
    Search trends reveal increased interest in terms like “non-stimulant fat burner” and “natural appetite suppressant without caffeine,” making LeptiCell a timely and relevant solution for today’s more discerning buyer.

    How Users Are Incorporating LeptiCell into Daily Routines

    As per official website, Whether used alongside intermittent fasting, walking regimens, or mindful eating, LeptiCell is designed to complement—not replace—existing wellness routines. Morning intake with a full glass of water is the most common use pattern, with many users reporting better portion control and sustained energy throughout the workday.
    Wellness coaches and lifestyle bloggers have begun including LeptiCell in digital detox and “reset” challenges, further embedding it in holistic health discussions.

    Behind the Brand: Science-Backed Mission and Responsible Sourcing

    The team behind LeptiCell emphasizes a commitment to transparency and integrity. In a statement issued earlier this year, LeptiCell’s development lead described the product as:

    “A convergence of nutritional science and modern wellness needs. We developed LeptiCell for people who wanted to feel in control of their health journey—without sacrificing safety, sustainability, or sanity.”

    According to the official website, all ingredients are sourced through GMP-certified partners, and each batch is tested for purity and potency before distribution.

    Furthermore, the supplement is manufactured in the United States, aligning with rising consumer demand for domestically produced health products with traceable origins.

    How LeptiCell Fits into Today’s Wellness Culture

    Modern consumers are increasingly embracing routines rather than resolutions. LeptiCell, in this context, functions not as a dramatic intervention, but as a quiet companion to existing wellness habits. It’s being paired with mindful eating, walking routines, and intermittent fasting protocols by those looking to reinforce their efforts.

    LeptiCell’s approach appeals to individuals who don’t identify with the high-intensity fitness community, but who still prioritize metabolic health. This inclusion-based model has enabled the supplement to reach a wide and diverse user demographic.

    Availability and Accessibility

    LeptiCell is currently available exclusively through its official website, with limited-time offers periodically introduced to accommodate first-time users. The company’s direct-to-consumer model allows for tighter quality control and access to customer service.

    Standard purchases are backed by a refund policy, allowing customers to evaluate the product over a period of time before committing long-term.

    As of June 2025, LeptiCell remains unavailable in traditional retail chains or on third-party e-commerce marketplaces to prevent counterfeiting and unauthorized reselling.

    Expert Voices: What the Future Might Hold

    Several integrative health practitioners and nutritionists have begun monitoring LeptiCell’s uptake as part of broader conversations on leptin resistance and chronic low-energy states.

    Dr. Nina Talbot, a board-certified specialist in metabolic health, commented:

    “We’re just beginning to understand how lifestyle factors, environmental toxins, and long-term stress affect metabolic hormones like leptin. Supplements like LeptiCell may offer practical support, especially if paired with sustainable dietary changes and stress reduction.”

    She cautions, however, that no supplement alone can replace a foundational wellness plan. “LeptiCell is potentially helpful, but not magical. Its best use case is in synergy with mindful living.”

    Responsible Wellness: What Makes LeptiCell a Trusted Option

    Beyond Ingredients: Ethics, Testing, and Transparency
    LeptiCell isn’t just about what’s inside the capsule—it’s also about the standards behind its production. The product undergoes third-party testing, is manufactured in GMP-certified facilities, and avoids fillers, synthetic dyes, and unverified claims.
    This level of transparency builds consumer trust and helps the supplement stand out in a crowded space, particularly among readers researching safe, long-term health solutions.

    Closing Thought: A Quiet Evolution in Weight Wellness

    As the supplement market continues its expansion, LeptiCell’s growth underscores a growing sophistication among consumers—those looking for gradual, real-world support rather than hollow promises.

    With increasing adoption, consistent user satisfaction, and a formulation that respects both science and sustainability, LeptiCell may well represent the next generation of metabolic wellness support in 2025.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Postgraduate student of SPbGASU is the winner of the All-Russian engineering competition

    Fourth-year postgraduate student Mikhail Lobovsky became the winner of the All-Russian Engineering Competition (VIC) 2024/2025, organized by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation.

    This year, 10,000 participants competed for the title of the best engineers in the country, of which only 110 made it to the final. The final stage took place in Moscow, where the finalists presented their projects to experts from leading industry companies.

    Mikhail presented research on the topic of “Improving the method for calculating the stability of through two-branch elements of steel structures”, carried out under the supervision of Doctor of Technical Sciences, Honored Scientist of Russia, Professor-Consultant of the Department of Reinforced Concrete and Masonry Structures of St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering Grigory Ivanovich Bely.

    “The existing methods for calculating the overall stability of lattice elements, presented in SP 16.13330.2017 “Steel structures”, have a number of assumptions that do not allow for taking into account the actual loading along the length of the element, the influence of defects and damage, and also lead to an underestimation of the bearing capacity of building structures. Therefore, in order to determine the actual bearing capacity of operated and designed through two-branch elements, modern calculation methods require improvement,” Mikhail said about the topic of his work.

    VIC is one of the most prestigious platforms for young engineers. Winners receive support from key industry players, including Rosatom, Roscosmos, Rostec, RusHydro, Russian Railways and other corporations. In addition to diplomas and valuable prizes, the competition laureates have advantages when entering the next level of education.

    According to Mikhail, he plans to continue research and implement developments in real projects.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Bioinspired Materials Can Take a Punch

    Source: US Government research organizations

    Certain creatures have unique microstructures in their exoskeletons that enable them to withstand heavy impacts continuously over time. These Bouligand structures can be found in the mantis shrimp, blue crab, glorious beetle and many more (shown here).

    Credit: Shutterstock, B. Hayes/NIST

    Some of the most innovative and useful inventions have been inspired by nature. Take the Shinkansen bullet train in Japan, whose aerodynamic design is modeled after the kingfisher bird. Or Velcro, which a Swiss engineer invented after observing that the burrs that stick to a dog’s fur have tiny hooks in them.

    Now, scientists have turned to a small underwater predator for inspiration. The mantis shrimp is a colorful invertebrate that packs a powerful punch. It can crack clamshells with the force of a .22 caliber bullet, thanks to unique structures that make its exoskeleton surprisingly strong.

    Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have made synthetic versions of these structures and tested their impact performance by blasting microprojectiles at them. They discovered that adjusting specific parameters of the structures changed how they absorbed and dissipated the impact energy.

    “The results and insights of this research mark an important advance in bioinspired materials design with applications for aerospace, such as helping spacecraft survive the impact of micrometeoroids and protecting orbiting satellites that collide with debris,” said NIST materials research engineer Edwin Chan.

    Other potential applications include better bullet-resistant glass, blast-resistant building materials, and more protective helmets.

    Chan and his colleagues published their findings in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

    This research idea came from Sujin Lee, who came to NIST as a National Research Council (NRC) postdoctoral fellow. Lee wanted to understand why the mantis shrimp’s appendage didn’t break as it smashed the shells of other creatures. Chan was also intrigued by this concept, and the two developed a research project to find out.

    “When a person punches someone, their hand hurts, but with a mantis shrimp, it doesn’t,” said Chan. Or it doesn’t seem to, anyway. Lee and Chan already knew that this was related to microscopic “Bouligand structures” in the shrimp’s exoskeleton.

    “Bouligand structures are a universal material platform for impact resistance in nature, and we wanted to learn more about them, so we produced and tested them in the lab,” said Chan.

    Lee and Chan synthesized the structures from cellulose nanocrystals, which are found in plant fibers. The nanocrystals self-assembled into plates, which layered on top of each other like rotating stacks of plywood.

    Those stacks formed their synthetic Bouligand structures. Researchers then modified the crystals using high-frequency sound waves before assembling them into thin films that served as their test material.

    Next, they tested the impact resistance of the thin films by firing microprojectiles at them at speeds of up to 600 meters per second. The microprojectiles, made of silica, were propelled toward their target by a high-intensity laser. The researchers recorded images of the microprojectiles impacting the thin films with an ultrafast camera.

    Microprojectile Hitting CNC Film

    NIST researchers tested the impact performance of synthetic versions of structures found in the exoskeleton of mantis shrimp. They used high-intensity lasers to fire microprojectiles made of silica at thin films of these synthetic structures.

    Based on those images, the researchers observed that a microprojectile can leave a permanent indentation while also bouncing back like a tennis ball hitting the ground. The degree of indentation and the amount of bounce-back depended on how the energy dissipated or spread out in shockwaves after the microprojectile’s impact.

    The researchers discovered that they could adjust how the energy dissipated by fine-tuning various factors that affected the sample’s mechanical properties, such as making the nanocrystals thicker or changing their density. They found that the microprojectiles left permanent indentations in the thinner films, but the thicker films excelled at redirecting the shockwaves from the impact.

    NIST worked on this project as part of its mission to develop advanced measurement methods that can be useful to U.S. industry. Researchers can use the measurement methods developed for this project to further develop impact-resistant materials based on Bouligand structures as well as other types of advanced materials with special properties.

    “These findings suggest that there are different ways to design materials to absorb impact, and we can use this knowledge to create more resilient and longer-lasting materials,” Chan said. “If you’re a boxer in the ring, you want to fight nine rounds, not just one.”

  • MIL-OSI: Strata Decision Technology Launches StrataJazz Position Control to Streamline Healthcare Hiring Processes, Optimize Financial Performance

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    CHICAGO, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Strata Decision Technology, LLC (Strata), a leader in the development of cloud-based financial planning, analytics, and performance tools for healthcare, today announced the launch of its innovative new solution, StrataJazz® Position Control. StrataJazz Position Control automates routine and clear-cut hiring decisions so healthcare teams can dedicate valuable resources to positions that require more complex decision-making.

    The solution helps healthcare organizations streamline and improve the accuracy of planning for new positions, making it easier for finance, operations, and human resources (HR) to stay aligned with data-driven decisions. The product was unveiled this week at the Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA) Annual Conference.

    In today’s complex healthcare landscape, managing labor expenses — the single largest cost for hospitals and health systems — is more critical than ever. Finance leaders often face numerous hurdles in managing open positions, such as manually pulling data from multiple systems to validate requests. Misalignment between financial budgets and HR’s position tracking adds extra work, slows down reviews, and makes it harder to drive strategic decisions — leading to unfilled roles, lost candidates, and higher costs.
