Thu, Jan 08, 2026 10:58 EST
Russell Roof Tiles has surpassed its fundraising target - raising more than £60,000 as part of its 60 th , diamond jubilee year in 2025. The pioneering firm has boosted its support for good causes, raising a total of £60,448.16 for its community fund Give4Good, which supports local and international organisations, chosen by its staff and close to its three sites. Give4Good was launched in 2022 as a way of supporting local initiatives with fun and challenging events championed by staff, suppliers, customers, and partners. Donations of £8,731.40 each were handed out to charities close to its Burton sites, Staffordshire, Cheshire and Shropshire Blood Bikes, Burton YMCA, Burton Albion Community Trust and Scropton Riding for the Disabled. In Lochmaben, £4701.53 was presented to Veterans Gardens Dumfries, Sports Drive Unlimited, D&G Canine Rescue Centre and Lockerbie Wildlife Trust, as well as £6714.44 to the Kenya-based Footprints Family. Fundraising events have included the firm's Annual Big Quiz, hosted at Burton Albion FC's Pirelli Stadium in November which added an impressive and record £20,950 to the total. Managing Director Andrew Hayward said: "It's an important part of our company values that we support our local communities, recognising those who make a real difference to people's lives. It's fitting that in our diamond jubilee year; we boosted this support even further." Russell Roof Tiles has achieved 15 years of significant independence and growth, which has included extensive development across all three of its sites, two in Burton and one in Scotland. A focus on people and place has underpinned the company's growth strategy. Its team are actively participating with Give4Good, donating through Give as you Earn, as well as taking part in events and challenges. 2025 marked an important year for the company, with £100,000 investment made into its Burton training facilities and the same amount spent on new machinery to speed up output to meet continued market demand. Across its whole portfolio, the firm has invested in modernising and futureproofing its facilities - boosting capacity, production speeds, and manufacturing efficiency. The company, a major producer of concrete roof tiles and accessories, has also launched a revolutionary new product Bute3® , which combines the aesthetic appeal of traditional plain tiles with the efficiency of a modern interlocking design, a result of five years and £2 million in product development. Bute3 ® is now in full production at the manufacturer's new £18.5 million fully automated line at its Nicholson Way site in Burton on Trent. Andrew added, "I am incredibly proud to lead a dedicated team that consistently innovates and outperforms expectations. We remain focused on transforming our operations, improving manufacturing efficiency and delivering better, more sustainable products. We are looking forward to another decade, and beyond to continued growth and success."

The Grand Prize is a firearm and ammunition prize package (to be announced at a later date). Regional Operations and firearms media personality Jake Holth will host the event. There is no general admission charge to attend the range day. Following the range day, sponsors and special guests will gather for an evening cocktail reception at the AC Hotel at Sawgrass Mills, just minutes from the range. This will provide a more relaxed networking environment for industry leaders, athletes, and veteran advocates to unwind and relax over drinks and light fare. On Saturday, March 21, the Legends & Heroes Shootout moves to Trump National Doral in Miami for a limited-entry charity golf event, hosted by MLB Legend Raul Ibanez. The tournament will feature a fun and competitive scramble-style format. This event is limited to eight total foursomes, including Shell Tech leadership, MLB legends, and up to five corporate sponsor teams. The tournament will conclude with cocktails, an outdoor grill lunch, and an awards presentation. There will also be a whiskey tasting held by Heritage Distilling Company. "The Legends & Heroes Shootout is about more than marksmanship and networking; it's about rallying our industry to make a measurable difference," commented Peter Foss , Managing Partner and CEO of Shell Shock Technologies. "With the Navy SEAL Foundation joining K9 Heroes 4 Heroes as a beneficiary, our $50,000 fundraising goal reflects the commitment to support the warriors and families who sacrifice for this nation."

US CPSC Introduces Federal Safety Standard for Neck Float Toys
Thu, Jan 08, 2026 04:14 EST
SGS, the world's leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published SafeGuardS 191.25 to inform stakeholders of the US Consumer Product Safety Commission's (CPSC) approval of a new mandatory consumer product safety standard for neck floats. On December 15, 2025, the CPSC published a final rule establishing 16 CFR 1250.5 under the toy safety regulation to address drowning hazards associated with neck floats. The rule also adds neck floats to the CPSC's Notice of Requirements and will take effect on June 15, 2026, applying to neck floats manufactured on or after that date. The standard applies to neck floats intended for children up to and including four years of age for use in sinks, bathtubs, paddling pools and swimming pools. US Coast Guard-approved lifesaving devices, including neck-attached devices, are excluded from the scope. The new requirements introduce specific performance criteria covering conditioning, minimum buoyancy, restraint systems and neck opening dimensions to reduce the risk of unintentional release and submersion. In addition, the rule mandates enhanced warning labels and instructions consistent with ANSI/NEMA Z535.4-2023, supplementing existing toy labeling requirements. Required warnings emphasize drowning risks, potential expansion of the neck opening during use and the need to inspect inflatable products for leaks. SGS publishes SafeGuardS to help businesses stay informed of key regulatory developments. SafeGuardS 191.25 summarizes the implications of the new federal safety standard for manufacturers, importers and distributors of neck float toys supplied to the US market. SGS Toy & Juvenile Product Services SGS offers a wide range of services to ensure that products comply with relevant standards for childcare articles and children's equipment. They provide consulting, training, product development, testing, audit and inspection services to ensure that products comply with strict regulations worldwide, demonstrating the safety and quality of juvenile products being brought to the market.

Expert: Millions of CPUs will die in storage before anyone makes a dime from AI
Wed, Jan 07, 2026 15:58 EST
In a recent article for The Information, digital infrastructure reporter Anissa Gardizy predicted that data center delays will be one of the defining themes of 2026 . Reportedly, builders say projects are running behind "because of the complexity of delivering infrastructure at this scale and speed." Some of the reported concerns relating to projects for Nvidia, Microsoft, OpenAI, Alphabet, Oracle and others include access to power, equipment delivery, labor shortage, permitting problems and NIMBY resistance. While these are all valid concerns, the underlying issue comes down to ONE all-encompassing bottleneck: Construction . Without construction there are no data centers, no means to power them, and no networks to connect them. Yet, according to a widely-sourced report by McKinsey & Company 98% of projects over $1B are late (by an average of 20 months) and over budget (by an average of 80%). Todd Zabelle laid all of this all out in his 2024 book, " BUILT to FAIL: Why Construction Projects Take So Long, Cost Too Much, And How to Fix It " ( www.B2FBook.com ; Forbes Publishing). " AI is colliding with a physical reality that Wall Street and Silicon Valley must recognize and address ," Zabelle warns. "Companies think they have a technology problem...a power problem... a transmission problem... a labor problem... a permit problem... BUT it's really a construction problem - all roads lead to construction ." In an interview, Zabelle can break down: Why the accepted (100-year-old) approach doesn't work Where the true bottlenecks are in AI and data center buildouts Why millions of CPUs and chips will likely die in storage before anyone sees a dime from them How tech giants and hyperscalers can actually reach revenue targets sooner "if they figure out how to build stuff ." What boards and investors should look for in company reports to get to the root of the problem Why modular construction is not the "easy button" solution everyone thinks it is When would you like to schedule an interview with Todd Zabelle?

"Kentucky is strategically important to us, with Louisville and Lexington serving as critical hubs for delivering legal services across the region.

Storm Goretti to Batter Britain: Experts Reveal How to Protect Your Home Before 60mph Winds Hit
Wed, Jan 07, 2026 09:13 EST
Met Office weather warnings have revealed that the UK could be in for further heavy snow, accompanied by strong winds of up to 60mph, as the UK's first named storm of the season, Storm Goretti , looks set to wreak havoc across the nation. According to the Met Office, the average cost of storm damage is at least £300 million per storm , with a large proportion of that damage affecting homeowners. Sales Director of Localists.com, Michael Marshall , said that just days after Storm Darragh passed in 2024, demand for roofers and fencers jumped by over 50% year-on-year . "Storm Darragh caused widespread damage for homeowners, particularly across western regions such as Wales, Devon and Somerset," he said. "Demand for roof repairs and tree surgery surged, with requests for local roofers rising by 52% , while fence repair enquiries increased by 59% during this period." Marshall also noted that tree surgeons and gutter cleaners experienced sharp increases in demand, reporting a 31% and 28% rise in service requests, respectively. In light of reports that Storm Goretti may soon reach UK shores, Scott Abram-Evans, Home & Garden expert at Localists.com has provided a checklist of things homeowners should check before the storm hits. 1) Clear your pipes Ensure your guttering and pipes are securely fixed and free from debris. Heavy rain combined with strong winds and blocked gutters can cause water to back up under roof shingles, leading to leaks or rot. Additionally, water pooling around your home's foundation can cause cracks as it freezes and expands during winter. 2) Check your roof Inspect your roof for missing or damaged tiles or shingles and replace them where possible using roofing adhesive or nails, ensuring they overlap correctly with surrounding tiles. If you spot small leaks, roofing cement can be used as a temporary fix until a professional can carry out proper repairs. Also check for gaps, cracks or deteriorating flashing around vents, skylights and chimneys, as these areas are particularly susceptible to leaks. Applying a waterproof sealant (after cleaning the area thoroughly) can help prevent water ingress. 3) Prune and secure your trees If you have trees in your garden, inspect them for loose or overhanging branches and remove them where possible. These can become hazardous in high winds and may cause damage if they break off. Smaller leaning trees can often be straightened using a stake driven into the ground with rope or string. Larger trees may require cabling, in which case it's best to call out a local tree surgeon. 4) Secure your fences Rotting posts are often the main reason fence panels become loose or blow over in strong winds. Inspect fence posts carefully, particularly at ground level where rot is most common. If you notice partial rot or breakage, repair kits such as post buddies, concrete repair spurs or fence post support spikes can often be used to reinforce the structure. 5) Secure loose items in your garden Plant pots, trampolines and garden furniture are especially vulnerable to high winds. If possible, store them temporarily in a shed or garage. If storage space is limited, secure items using bungee cords or zip ties. Free weight plates can also be used as temporary weights (at least 20kg ) to hold items down but be cautious as metal weights can rust if left outside. For more information, visit: Localists.com

The New Menopause Conversation for 2026: Why Winter Exacerbates Symptoms and the Natural Supplement That May Help
Wed, Jan 07, 2026 04:58 EST
For many women navigating menopause, it may feel as though winter makes everything harder - and it's not just their imagination. Sleep becomes more fractured, energy drops faster and familiar symptoms such as low mood or mental fog often feel more pronounced. While menopause is increasingly discussed, the seasonal pressures that sit alongside it are still rarely acknowledged. Shorter days, less sunlight and colder weather can disrupt sleep patterns and daily routines. At the same time, people tend to move less, crave heavier foods and spend more time indoors. Over time, this combination can affect nutrient intake and absorption, particularly minerals and vitamins linked to energy production, nervous system health and hormonal balance. So, what can be done to counter that? Irish Sea Moss is just the kind of whole-food supplement that can help support women's bodies through this period. Harvested by hand from the Atlantic coast of Ireland, The Moss Way's Sea Moss has undergone laboratory testing that confirms the presence of nutrients commonly associated with menopause support. These include magnesium, which contributes to normal psychological function and helps reduce tiredness, alongside potassium for nervous system balance and a range of B vitamins involved in energy metabolism and hormonal regulation. Iodine is another key nutrient found in Irish Sea Moss. It contributes to normal thyroid function, which plays a role in regulating metabolism and energy levels. During menopause, when fatigue and temperature sensitivity are common complaints, maintaining thyroid health becomes increasingly important. Harry Morgan, founder of The Moss Way, said, "A lot of women tell us that their symptoms feel sharper once winter sets in. That's often when sleep is disrupted and nutrient gaps start to show. Sea Moss offers broad nutritional support at a time when the body is under more strain." What sets Sea Moss apart from many supplements is its natural structure. Rather than delivering isolated nutrients, it provides them as part of a wider matrix of minerals, amino acids and bioactive compounds. This allows the body to absorb and utilise what it needs without the peaks and troughs associated with synthetic formulations. With its nutrient density and minimal processing, Irish Sea Moss is becoming part of a more effective and natural approach to supporting women through the colder months.

ResearchCollab.ai, the first all-in-one AI research hub built to replace today's fragmented academic and scientific workflows, has officially launched to the public. At a time when researchers face mounting pressure to produce faster and verify more, while navigating unreliable AI tools and scattered applications, ResearchCollab.ai offers what the team calls "Structured Intelligence". This new approach moves beyond simple text generation to visualise the knowledge gap, turning access to millions of papers into a strategic, high governance workflow. Designed as a complete research operating system, it unifies discovery, analysis, organisation, writing, and collaboration in a single environment. The platform introduces a new user experience that bridges the gap between raw data and final drafting, ensuring the human remains the architect of the research. ResearchCollab integrates unified search across more than 250 million papers, advanced PDF interrogation, structured notetaking, AI-driven analysis, and blockchain-backed verification, enabling users to complete literature reviews up to 10x faster with documented transparency. "Research is not just about finding data; it is about connecting ideas," said Imran Chughtai, Founder of ResearchCollab.ai. "Current AI tools force researchers to choose between speed and control, often yielding generic content. We built ResearchCollab.ai to end the era of 'black box' research. We do not just generate text; we visualise the intersection of concepts and give the user total governance over the output." Chughtai's own experience as a doctoral researcher and an executive leader at a research think tank shaped the platform. "The tools we had were either fast but unreliable, or reliable but painfully slow. We built ResearchCollab.ai to combine speed with rigour, something the research community has been asking for since generative AI first entered the academic mainstream." Unlike generic AI assistants, ResearchCollab.ai introduces a transformational UX built for scientific and academic standards: Visual Topic Search: A visual mind map interface that reveals the intersection of related concepts and subtopics. This allows researchers to move from simple searching to strategic exploring, identifying relevant connections they might have missed. Outline Generator: A governance tool that allows the user to act as the architect. Users control the content generation by curating outlines based on previously selected research interests, ensuring the AI adheres strictly to the user's structure. AI Notes Editor: An advanced drafting tool that integrates human personas and personality. It maintains the individual writing style of the researcher while speeding up the content creation process, ensuring every sentence is backed by data rather than hallucination. AI Cross-Validation: One model checks another's output for accuracy. Multi-Model Chat: Access to more than 50 leading models, including GPT-5, Claude, Gemini 2.5 Pro, and open-source systems. Unified research workspace: Search, reading, note-taking, analysis, planning, writing, and collaboration all in one place. Over the next three months, the platform will roll out a series of major integrations, including a browser extension and Microsoft Word Add in, alongside new capabilities such as AI assisted personalised research, multilingual support, and a mobile app. These updates will move the platform even closer to its goal of becoming the single environment researchers rely on, from idea to publication to helping address global challenges.

The Bikeability Trust welcomes the Road Safety Strategy and stands ready to bring our expertise in road safety to support implementation. "We particularly welcome the creation of the National Work-Related Road Safety Charter. We have already proposed revisions to the National Standard for Cycle Training to ensure that all types of cycles and journeys, including those for work, are governed by our proven training, which builds positive, safe and responsible road culture. "We have experience working with Approved Driving Instructors through Cycle Savvy Driving, and will shortly launch new National Standards-based e-learning for adults wishing to cycle for work and leisure. This product will be key in addressing inconsistent and inadequate training and bring confidence to insurers and businesses to support cycling for work and lead to safer riding and a reduction in incidents. National Standards must be robust and include all legal forms of cycle, from cargo bikes to dockless bikes, e-scooters and pedicabs, and be future-proofed for all forms of transport. "In our Safer Streets for All joint report with Living Streets, we recommended a range of measures to strengthen road safety and we will look forward to the detail in the strategy realising some of the recommendations."

Click here to read the KLAS First Look Survey. The just published KLAS First Look Report "ScribeEMR ScribeRyte AI 2026: Reducing Clinical Documentation Burden with Accurate, Efficient AI-Powered Scribe Solutions addresses the burdens manual clinical documentation places on healthcare organizations, which can lead to increased stress, reduced patient throughput, and extended after-hours work. ScribeEMR resolves these challenges with ScribeRyte AI-an AI-powered, human assisted, medical scribing tool that improves workflow and provider productivity. The report provides feedback from early interviewed customers on their experiences with ScribeRyte AI and ScribeRyte AI Plus (an option that utilizes both AI and human scribes), focusing on how the solution impacts efficiency, documentation quality, and physician burnout. Overall, customers interviewed are highly satisfied, reporting they have achieved their desired outcomes. Respondents say ScribeRyte AI "effectively reduces documentation workload, leading to faster, more accurate note generation and higher provider productivity." They describe the solution as "reliable and easy to use" and say its automation decreases errors and costs. Key Performance Indicators include an A* grade for " supports integration goals ," and A+* grades for having " needed functionality ," " executive involvement" and being " likely to recommend ." "ScribeRyte AI rates highly in key metrics essential for practices to easily, and comfortably, rely on AI documentation, which many providers continue to resist," says Terry Ciesla, Senior Vice President of Sales and Business Development for ScribeEMR. "We appreciate KLAS for capturing and sharing early customer feedback on our solution." Respondent Reviews: Customer quotes from the KLAS report best describe the advantages of ScribeRyte's instant AI and hybrid, remote human scribe supported, clinical documentation solutions: "ScribeRyte AI is very easy to use. There is not a lot to click on, so there is not a lot of room for error. The workflow is easy. The amount of effort that the computer needs to make, like the bandwidth requirements and things like that, seems to be very easy ... Even with people who have strong dialects, ScribeRyte AI does great, and we are happy with the voice recognition." -CEO/president "The biggest positive is savings for the company. We can automate a lot more. We can complete an entire section of the report just based on the data sent to the system. The ability to automate and customize the output of a report is definitely a huge positive." -Manager "The strengths of ScribeRyte AI are speed and accuracy. Also, the product is not very expensive. We are able to do in an hour the charting and finalizing of what used to take us several hours. Our patient throughput has increased by probably 25% because we are not afraid to take on more patients since we don't have to extend our work into the wee hours of the morning." -CEO/president ScribeEMR recently completed both its PwC HIPAA Security & Privacy Assessment and its Accorp SOC 2 Type II Audit to ensure enterprise-grade security standards for all AI-driven and remote scribing workflows. ScribeEMR's AI-powered medical scribing solution is unique in that it benefits from the knowledge gained by thousands of encounters with dedicated virtual medical scribes who communicate with clinicians during patient visits and enter notes directly into the EMR in real-time, according to the provider's specific charting style.
