The compatibility studies of a new controlled-release repellent formulation (NSN 6840-01-284-3982, insect repellent personal application) and a new camouflage face paint (NSN 6850-01-262-0635) indicated that the repellent did not interfere with the use of face paints when repellent was applied first, and the face paints did not reduce the effectiveness of the repellent against mosquitoes.

The fine-grained functional organization of the human lateral prefrontal cortex (PFC) remains poorly understood. Previous fMRI studies delineated focal domain-general, or multiple-demand (MD), PFC areas that co-activate during diverse cognitively demanding tasks. While there is some evidence for category-selective (face and scene) patches, in human and non-human primate PFC, these have not been systematically assessed.

Pigment production has a substantial negative impact on the environment, since mining for natural pigments causes ecosystem degradation, while synthetic pigments, derived from petrochemicals, generate toxic by-products that accumulate and persist in aquatic systems due to their resistance to biodegradation. Despite these challenges, pigments remain essential across numerous industries, including the cosmetic, textile, food, automotive, paints and coatings, plastics, and packaging industries. In response to growing consumer demand for sustainable options, there is increasing interest in eco-friendly alternatives, particularly bio-based pigments derived from algae, fungi, and actinomycetes.

Shock wave boundary/layer interactions (SWBLIs) are critical in high-speed aerodynamic flows, particularly within supersonic regimes, where unsteady dynamics can induce structural fatigue and degrade vehicle performance. Conventional measurement techniques, such as pressure-sensitive paint (PSP), face limitations in frequency response, calibration complexity, and intrusive instrumentation. Similarly, MEMS-based sensors, like Kulite sensors, present challenges in terms of intrusiveness, cost, and integration complexity.

Taro Okamoto, a famous Japanese artist, theorist, and writer developed Parkinson's disease during the later years of life. Facial pareidolia associated with Parkinson's disease led to the idea of "Glass with Face." Color vision impairment and reduced contrast sensitivity affected the use of colors in his paintings, and the focus of his creative activities shifted from painting to ceramics and sculpture.
