Scientists from Newcastle University and the University of Birmingham developed a room-temperature Teflon recycling method that turns Teflon waste into sodium fluoride using mechanical shaking with sodium metal. The process breaks strong carbon-fluorine bonds without heat or solvents, producing pure sodium fluoride for toothpaste, water treatment, and pharmaceutical applications.

A once-in-a-generation discovery is transforming a Michigan dairy farm
At first glance, the 400 acres of soybeans growing on the Preston family's dairy farm in southern Michigan looks like a typical field. But these aren't ordinary soybeans. They represent a breakthrough partnership with Michigan State University that's saving the family tens of thousands of dollars a month in livestock feed costs—and it could change the dairy industry forever.

At the beginning of every new semester, I reflect on how much work I have that my professorial forebears did not. Email is perhaps the most obvious, and it certainly occupies more time than I'd like. Attention to the bureaucratic demands on syllabus composition is also way more demanding than it should be. Canvas is the one, though, that rankles the most in terms of time suck.
I can't imagine any of the crusty old men who taught at my university in the mid-20th century doing an…

Very good. All public institutions, like universities, should follow suit! Especially those at the forefront of IT.

More big cuts to Universities and Colleges in Canada/BC.
This time it's smaller colleges in the Interior of BC. Coast Mountain College in Prince Rupert/Northwest, and Selkirk College in the SE/Nelson.
The Hazelton campus of CMC is being closed as is the Fine Arts campus of Selkirk.
All because successive Provincial and Federal governments in Canada thought the gravy-train of International students would last forever, allowing them to redirect funding for Post Secondary to other parts of the budget.
I don't think the system has found the bottom yet, and at the end, it will be Domestic students who suffer most from hugely diminished services at their local, and regional, and national colleges and Universities.
