The most powerful environmental solutions might come from organisms too small to see. Microbes are everywhere — in soil, water, waste sites and ecosystems, and Waterloo researchers across the Faculty of Science are working to uncover how these tiny organisms can be harnessed as tools to address complex environmental challenges and drive lasting global impact. Methane is 20 times as potent as carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas, but it breaks down much faster in the atmosphere. As a result, reducing methane emissions is an important lever to tackle climate change.

Apple has been ordered to pay $5.7 billion in damages for infringing on two patents owned by a gaming headset company. Taction Technology, which also supplied the tech found in the Corsair HS60 headset, alleged in 2021 that Apple infringed on two patents related to its haptics systems in its Apple Watch and iPhone. The headset company’s complaint, which was heard before a jury in the District Court for the Southern District of California, alleged that Apple’s “Taptic Engine” was “capitalizing on Taction’s innovation and success.” Taction alleged that both systems used vibration-based, tactile transducer technology that helps users feel a device respond to their input, and argued that Apple used its inventions “without proper license or authority.” The jury agreed, but also found that Apple didn’t willfully infringe on the patents.

Porzingis will not join the Warriors in Hawaii for training camp. SAN FRANCISCO — Center Kristaps Porziņģis will be out indefinitely for the Golden State Warriors with a health issue, and general manager Mike Dunleavy offered no further details but wasn’t ready to call this a long-term concern.

And the cast is fire tooPublished Sep 28, 2026•4:08pmCourtesy of NetflixWhen it comes to rebooting a beloved show, things can go one of two ways. Viewers will either rave about the new take (hello, Fuller House and Cobra Kai) or wonder why anyone thought it was a good idea in the first place (sorry, Gossip Girl and Charmed). So, when a reboot actually manages to win over longtime fans, it’s kind of a big deal. And that seems to be exactly what Netflix has done with its new number one show, A Different World. A Different World is a revival of the beloved 1987–1993 NBC sitcom of the same name. The new series follows Deborah Wayne (Maleah Joi Moon) as she begins her freshman year at Hillman College, the fictional HBCU and alma mater of her parents. Across 10 episodes, the series explores the lives, loves and experiences of a new generation of students. The reboot also has plenty of familiar faces. Jada Pinkett Smith, Jenifer Lewis, Tichina Arnold and more make appearances, while Jasmine Guy and Kadeem Hardison reprise their roles from the original series as “special guest stars,” alongside several other returning actors.

The world learned her name after October 7. Now, Noa Argamani is joining Vine Ventures to open her network to Israeli founders. After 246 days in Hamas captivity, Israeli special forces rescued Noa Argamani and carried her by helicopter to a hospital outside Tel Aviv. There, a doctor turned to her and said, "Noa, we're really happy that you're here with us. "Argamani was confused. "The first thing I asked is, 'How do you know my name?'" she recalls. "I didn't realize the whole world knew who I was. "At 25, Argamani had become one of the faces of the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel. On the morning of her kidnapping, she was a college student about to begin her third year studying artificial intelligence. She imagined becoming a software engineer. Maybe she would start a company someday.

Dennis Haskins, an actor known best for playing Principal Richard Belding on the 1990s high school sitcom “Saved by the Bell,” died on Sunday night. He was 75. Haskins’ friend and longtime caretaker, Kimberly Snow, confirmed the actor’s death. A cause of death is unknown, but Haskins had quietly battled Parkinson’s disease and was candid about other health issues. According to Snow, the actor died around 11 p.m. in a Burbank assisted living facility. Snow, a former manager of Burbank’s since-shuttered Dimples Karaoke, shared the news of the actor’s death on Instagram, writing that Haskins was a staple at the joint, so much so that many of the patrons thought he owned it. “A lot of people thought he owned it, but he didn’t,” the tribute read. “He just loved the place and its people. He enjoyed singing for people, meeting them, and taking selfies with his fans. Dimples closed down about 11 years ago, and people still associate him with his beloved ‘second home.’ He was known to most as Mr. Belding from Saved by the Bell, but to us, he was much more than that. “About eight years ago, he became ill,” the post continued.

Golden State Warriors big man Kristaps Porzingis will be sidelined indefinitely due to a health issue, the team announced Monday. Porzingis was on the court last week, but the Warriors were informed of his health issue Sunday, general manager Mike Dunleavy said, according to ESPN's Anthony Slater. Golden State acquired Porzingis at the trade deadline last season and signed him to a two-year, $40-million extension in June. The 30-year-old averaged 16.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 1.2 blocks in 32 games last season split between the Warriors and Atlanta Hawks. Porzingis projected to begin the season as Golden State's starting center. Veteran Al Horford and rookie Yaxel Lendeborg could see increased usage out of the gate if Porzingis isn't ready for the start of the campaign. The Warriors open their season Oct. 21 against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Quality professionals are no strangers to standards revisions. A new version of ISO 9001 typically triggers gap assessments, documentation reviews, training updates, and transition planning alongside existing priorities.
