Indian consumers are becoming more and more knowledgeable about beauty and personal care. The beauty industry in India is growing at a break-neck pace, almost twice as fast as that of the markets in the United States and Europe. Beauty industry in India can be divided into some major segments like baby care, bath and shower, colour cosmetics, deodorants, depilatories, fragrances, hair care, men’s grooming, oral care, sets/kits, skin care, and sun care. The number of beauty salons in the country is increasing at a rate of almost 35 percent annually.

This UL white paper provides an overview of the issues related to the presence of
pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in drinking water. The paper
discusses the possible effects of PPCPs on humans and on the environment and
summarizes recent research conducted by U.S. government agencies, UL and others on
PPCP concentrations found in public drinking water supplies and wastewater facilities.
The white paper also discusses available water treatment options for reducing PPCP concentrations and their relative effectiveness. The paper concludes with areas for
further research and a preview of possible future regulatory actions.
Nanoparticles, pharmaceutical and personal care products in sewage sludgePravash Chandra Moharana
During the last decade the occurrence of engineered nanoparticles (NPs), pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in the environment have been well documented. Nanoparticles are released from different nanomaterials used in our household and industrial commodities whereas PPCPs are a diverse group of chemicals comprising all human and veterinary drugs, diagnostic agents and cosmetics such as fragrances and sun-screen agents which enter into environment by excretion of humans and domestic animals, disposal of unused or expired PPCPs to drain and ultimately contaminate the sewage sludge and soil. Toxicity of many nanoparticles in wastewater and sludge and their fate to soil are the unanswered question (Brar et al., 2010). The phytotoxicology of nanoparticles (multi-walled carbon nanotube, aluminum, alumina, zinc and zinc oxide) on seed germination and root growth of radish, rape, ryegrass, lettuce, corn, and cucumber are reported by Lin and Xing, 2007 and Oleszczuk et al., 2011. Application of higher doses of ZnO-NPs inhibited the production of methane, respiration and also nitrification during anaerobic digestion of waste activated sludge (Liu et al., 2011; Mu and Chen, 2011). Some of the nanoparticles like Fe3O4, FeS, CeO2, etc. are used for removal of pollutants from wastewater and sludge. The pharmaceuticals like ibuprofen, naproxen, ketoprofen, diclofenac, phenazone, bezifibrate, erythromycin, sulfamethazine, trimethoprim, triclosan, musk compounds, etc. are identified in wastewater and sludge (Daughton and Ternes, 1999). These PPCPs react with other organic molecules to produce Phase I and Phase II compound which are more toxic than parent compounds. Bioremediation by fungus Trametes versicolor is one of the option to reduce pharmaceuticals to toxicity from sewage sludge (Rodríguez-Rodríguez et al., 2011).

Choosing Interventions
Purpose
The purpose of this session is to explore how a psychologist chooses empirically supported interventions.
Objective(s)
To describe how one chooses empirically supported interventions.
1. To identify sources of information about empirically supported interventions.
2. To explore the advantages of using interventions that are supported by research
3. To identify ways in which one can contribute to the literature about interventions
(Working with Juveniles in the Juvenile Court System)
Locate at least one resource that provides guidelines for choosing empirically supported interventions in your specialty area or for the setting where you are working or for clients with whom you work. Please list this resource in your post this week.
This week we will discuss choosing interventions. It is always important to be able to explain why you are doing whatever it is you choose to do in counseling or other psychological interventions.
How do you choose specific interventions? Where does theory fit into your choices? Where does the treatment/care plan, the diagnosis (if you use one), the goal and/or objective fit? Where does the concept of "best practice" fit in? To what degree are interventions chosen based on the characteristics of the client? Of the problem? Is there a "preferred" (or even mandated) theoretical approach at your site? Incorporate your practicum experience into your response. If citing a case, please take care to appropriate mask specific details e.g. client's demographic information.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Editor's Notes
Gold module - Title Page
Key message – use of nanotechnologies not necessarily new – but we are learning how to use them more effectively and more safely. How do we make these decisions? More info at…. http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2006/10/02/1751084.htm
An article published in the Age newspaper – http://www.theage.com.au/news/national/women-rush-tiny-tubs-of-rolledgold-cream/2007/05/05/1177788470691.html “ Women rush tiny tubs of rolled-gold cream” -Natasha Hughes May 6, 2007 should provoke some interesting discussion- Is there a psychological aspect to this? Does the cream really work? Why is there such a high demand for high-end face creams? Who are the products aimed at? What is an "uber luxury shopper"? Who would pay $3500 for a "super serum" which lasts for 21 days? http:// www.theage.com.au/news/national/women-rush-tiny-tubs-of-rolledgold-cream/2007/05/05/1177788470691.html (image)
This slide should provoke some good discussion- Are all consumer products useful? Are we tricked into buying products we don’t need? Is it ignorance and lack of knowledge of what is in the product? How do we become more discerning buyers (consumers)? How is NT going to affect the cosmetic and personal care industry? A new food or beauty product is launched every three and a half minutes . (get students to calculate how many products are launched in a day, in a week, in a year. Experts predict that future products will make us smarter and younger. (what products do they have in mind?)
On what basis do you choose a shampoo? The media tells us that the shampoo we use will change aspects of our life. It makes us charming and sophisticated… students should be encouraged to find shampoo labels and list all the claims that are made eg Can a shampoo repair, restructure, or nourish damaged hair? When we know that hair is dead and it can not be repaired. Can shampoo really prevent your color from fading? Do volumizing shampoos really work? What does this mean? Ask students to give a list of properties they think a shampoo should have. Eg It must feel thick or creamy in the hands, and must produce a nice feeling lather. Should smell nice, and not be too expensive. What sells a shampoo? Herbal extracts, amino acids from exotic proteins such as silk , nano particles What is the main purpose of a shampoo? T he prime purpose of a shampoo is to clean the hair, however if the cleaning is over done the protective oils in the hair are stripped out.
Is the product useful? Where is the value?
A discussion should center on “What information would you need to know before you would consider Paying $960 or $10 for a cream? This should lead to reading labels and having an understanding of basic ingredients
Refer to http://www.science.org.au/nova/083/083print.htm and the data you collected from activity 1and 2 to answer these questions.
Reading labels has given an insight into what products contain. Now lets make our own product
What about nanoparticles in cosmetics? Is it safe, or more effective?.... Need to provide an explanation as to what this means, and what the current debates include.
Research nano safety issues An example article for students to research for http://prismwebcastnews.com/2008/02/16/2101/
How do we make informed decisions? A discussion should center on “What information would you need to know before you would consider buying this shampoo which uses 'NANO' directly as its brand and claims to contain titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) nanoparticles, which could penetrate more effectively into the hair and, thanks to its photo catalytic oxidation characteristics, oxidize the harmful residues after hair perming . For blog about the nano shampoo: http://andrewofftheroad.blogspot.com/2006/10/new-shampoo-movement-toward-nano.html Image source: Imageshack.us http://img331.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nanoshampoosmallei7.jpg Need to tie this back to the scientific uncertainties. There is a lack of data to say such products are safe or indeed unsafe
How do we make informed decisions when confronted with such information? What information would you need to know before you decided to buy this cream? In Australia, this product would be considered to be a therapeutic good and not a cosmetic (this is an important legal distinction)
http://www.crownlaboratories.com/bluelizard In Australia, this product would be considered to be a therapeutic good and not a cosmetic (this is an important legal distinction) Again, need to note the divergent scientific views here, and the lack of data here. /
The nanotechnology of making the ZnO transparent is a good reason for considering this nano product Could watch clip from CSIRO abut Australian made nano sunscreen http://www.csiro.au/multimedia/ppf33.html
Research or discussion questions
