​नीदरलैंड्स के स्कूलों में दो साल पहले लागू स्मार्टफोन बैन का असर अब साफ दिखने लगा है। क्लासरूम, गलियारों और कैंटीन में मोबाइल के साथ स्मार्टवॉच और टेक्कनेट भी बाहर कर दिए गए हैं। स्कूल गेट पर लगे बोर्ड छात्रों को याद दिलाते हैं कि फोन सिर्फ लॉकर में रहेगा। सरकार अब इसे आगे बढ़ाते हुए 16 साल से कम उम्र के बच्चों के लिए सोशल मीडिया पर पाबंदी की वकालत कर रही है। सरकार के 317 माध्यमिक स्कूलों पर कराए अध्ययन में करीब 75% स्कूलों ने कहा कि छात्रों की एकाग्रता बढ़ी है। 66% स्कूलों ने सामाजिक माहौल बेहतर होने की पुष्टि की। वहीं, करीब एक-तिहाई स्कूलों में शैक्षणिक प्रदर्शन में भी सुधार दर्ज किया गया। कई छात्र कह रहे हैं कि डिजिटल दुनिया से बाहर निकलकर वे वर्तमान को ज्यादा जी पा रहे हैं। कानून नहीं, राष्ट्रीय सहमति से लागू हुआ बैन बनाना आसान हुआ है और बच्चे सरकार ने सख्त कानून बनाने के बजाय स्कूलों, अभिभावकों और शिक्षकों के साथ राष्ट्रीय समझौता किया था। मकसद लंबी कानूनी प्रक्रिया से बचते हुए सभी का सहयोग लेना और नियम तुरंत लागू करना था। शिक्षकों के मुताबिक फोन न होने से अनुशासन पढ़ाई पर ज्यादा ध्यान दे रहे हैं। ब्रेक और गलियारों में भी पहले जैसी अफरा-तफरी कम हुई है, जिससे माहौल ज्यादा शांत हुआ है। सुरक्षा बढ़ी, बुलिंग के मामले घटे फोन बैन के बाद छात्रों मे  

TAMPA, Fla., March 27, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — What if the smallest act of kindness could change the world? That’s the question at the heart of “My Ripple Effect,” a bold new faith and family film from JC Films and Joshuacord – hitting screens this week and starring fan favorites Dean Cain, Kevin Sorbo, Eddie McClintock and Michael Sigler.

“My Ripple Effect” follows a recently divorced dad (Dean Cain) who encounters a mysterious man named Raphael (Kevin Sorbo) at an abandoned church, and discovers his life has far more meaning than he ever imagined. Together with his best friend (Eddie McClintock), he embarks on a journey that reveals how ordinary people and everyday moments can create long‑lasting, generational impact.

This isn’t just a movie about characters on a screen. It’s a story about all of us – parents, students, pastors and neighbors – who wonder if our small efforts really make a difference, and what God can do with one obedient “yes.” By the end of this story, viewers will question not just ‘What if?’ but, ‘What if God uses this moment to change my world?’”

The film is the product of a unique partnership between Jason Campbell, writer, director and executive producer at JC Films, and Patrick Carberry, founder of Joshuacord, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness and support for persecuted Christians around the world.

“My Ripple Effect” follows ordinary people whose everyday choices set off extraordinary waves of change – a timely reminder that no act of faith, courage or compassion is ever wasted.

For Carberry, the message is personal.

“We all impact each other for good or for evil,” he says. “This film is an invitation. Your prayers, your voice and your giving are ripples that reach people you may never meet, especially our persecuted brothers and sisters around the world, reminding them that they are seen, known, and deeply loved.”

Carberry founded Joshuacord 15 years ago to shine a light on the ongoing persecution of Christians globally. The organization’s previous film, “Christians in the Mirror” (2019), featured on-the-ground interviews with persecuted believers and religious leaders in Syria, India, Iraq, South Sudan and Egypt.

“We want our Christian brothers and sisters in the Middle East, Asia and Africa to know they are not alone,” says Paul Jallo, president of Jallo Oil and senior vice president of Joshuacord, who also serves as Executive Producer of the film alongside Campbell. “God has given me more than I deserve, and I want to pay it forward with ‘My Ripple Effect.’”

The film’s message echoes the famous words often attributed to Irish statesman Edmund Burke: “Evil prevails when good men do nothing.” Campbell and Carberry see this as a call to purpose. They believe audiences are ready to move beyond watching from the sidelines and begin responding with prayer, conversation and faithful steps that create real change, one ripple at a time.

“My Ripple Effect” will be available on The Trinity Broadcasting Network, YouTube’s Christian Movies channel and major streaming platforms including Amazon and Hulu.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., March 26, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — GeekyAnts, a ​​global technology consulting and product development company, today announced the formal launch of GeekyAnts AI and AI Pods, a two-tier delivery program built to take enterprise AI systems from proof of concept to production, addressing the infrastructure and accountability failures that have stalled most AI pilot programs in 2026.

Image caption: GeekyAnts.

According to EY, 82 percent of enterprises are running active AI proofs of concept. Gartner estimates that more than half of those pilots never reach full deployment. The failure point is rarely the model. It is the operational layer that the model depends on to function reliably, securely, and within compliance boundaries.

“Building an agent that works in a demo is no longer the hard problem, as the tooling for that is widely available and improving every quarter,” said Kumar Partik, CEO of GeekyAnts. “The hard problem is building the operational layer that makes it work in production: across real transaction volumes, inside regulated data environments, and under the scrutiny of a compliance audit the demo never anticipated. That is exactly what we built AI Pods to solve.”

THE PRODUCTION GAP

Building a working AI agent takes days, sometimes hours, with the tooling available today. Taking it to production is a different problem entirely. The agent itself is roughly ten percent of the work. The remaining 90% is infrastructure: deployment pipelines, latency benchmarks under real-world load, token-cost guardrails, monitoring for output drift, human-in-the-loop checkpoints, governance frameworks that survive a compliance audit, and the observability tooling that tells an engineering team what the system is actually doing at any given moment.

In financial services, the gap has a specific shape. A real-time fraud detection system that performs accurately in a test environment degrades silently in production because no monitoring layer was built to catch decision drift over time. A pilot that processed 50 transactions a day falls under 1.2 million because the underlying infrastructure was never stress-tested under production load. And in a regulated environment, a system that cannot generate a forensic audit trail for every decision it makes is not a production system. It is a liability. Compliance review halts the deployment. The initiative gets deprioritized. The AI budget gets questioned.

In healthcare, the failure mode is equally predictable. Clinical documentation systems and patient triage tools built on AI require accuracy at a level that no generalist engineering team can validate without a purpose-built evaluation framework. A system with 80 percent accuracy in a demo is a 20 percent error rate in a patient record. Healthcare AI that cannot demonstrate its decision trail, its accuracy benchmarks, and its monitoring layer will not clear a security or legal review. Most do not.

The root cause is organizational as much as technical. Enterprise engineering teams are evaluated on shipping a prototype that impresses in a review meeting, not on building the operational layer that keeps it running a year later. Infrastructure design gets deferred because it slows the demo cycle. A senior AI engineer with LLM orchestration and observability experience costs $180,000 or more in base salary, requires three to six months to recruit, and represents a single point of failure if they leave mid-project. The delivery model breaks before production code ships.

HOW AI PODS WORK

GeekyAnts has structured its AI delivery program around two tiers. GeekyAnts AI is a full-stack consulting and delivery practice for enterprise AI transformation. AI Pods is a pre-configured embedded team model for organizations that need continuous delivery capacity rather than a project engagement. Both tiers operate on the same production standard: infrastructure is not a second phase. It is designed from day one.

The structural differentiation is in the accountability model. AI Pods engagements are priced by outcome, by feature shipped, migration completed, or integration live, and not by hours billed or tokens consumed. Every custom agent configuration and RAG knowledge base built during an engagement is the client’s property from day one, not held on the vendor’s infrastructure. And GeekyAnts backs its AI-generated code with a six-month warranty: if a severity-one defect traceable to a Pod’s output surfaces within six months of delivery, the company fixes it at zero cost. In an industry where liability for AI-generated code failures typically transfers to the buyer at handoff, that warranty is not a standard term.

PRODUCTION RESULTS

A fintech client running a real-time transaction monitoring system built through an AI Pod reached 92 percent fraud detection accuracy across 1.2 million daily transactions, with sub-second response latency. The system shipped with token cost guardrails, a defined audit trail for every decision, and a monitoring layer that tracks output drift without manual intervention. The engagement moved from proof of concept to production in four weeks on a fixed-outcome model.

A second engagement, for an enterprise SaaS client running vendor risk and compliance workflows, reduced vendor onboarding time by 65 percent through an AI-powered intelligence platform automating risk scoring, compliance tracking, and contract monitoring. The platform was built audit-ready by design, so procurement teams could approve vendors faster without sacrificing the documentation trail required for regulatory review. Delivery completed in twelve weeks, on time, with zero launch blockers.

GeekyAnts AI and AI Pods are active across fintech, healthcare, and enterprise SaaS engagements in North America. Engineering and technology leaders working through a specific use case, whether an AI feature stalled in prototype, a system without a monitoring layer, or a compliance review that halted a deployment, can reach the team at geekyants.com

EDINBURGH, UK, March 26, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Today, we at FAXVIN are proud to mark 16 years in business. Since our founding on March 26, 2010, we have focused on one core mission: helping buyers, sellers, and automotive businesses make more informed decisions by giving them easier access to vehicle history information.

Image caption: FAXVIN logo.

What began as VINCarHistory has grown into FAXVIN, a broader vehicle intelligence platform offering vehicle history reports, VIN checks, VIN decoding, license plate lookup, recalls, and other VIN-based research tools designed to reduce uncertainty before a purchase, trade, or inventory decision.

As of March 2026, our platform has provided more than 3,000,000 reports, built a database of more than 14 billion records, and covers over 820 million vehicles, with historical data collected since 1981. FAXVIN also reaches more than 280,000 monthly unique visitors.

Our reports compile records from licensed data providers and official databases into a single time-stamped report. Depending on source availability, that may include title history and brands, odometer readings, total-loss indicators, theft indicators, prior registration jurisdictions, recalls, lien or impound-related flags, and service, inspection, or auction entries from partner sources. FAXVIN reports also include NMVTIS data obtained through approved NMVTIS data providers.

For sixteen years, our goal has stayed the same: make vehicle history easier to access, easier to understand, and more useful when a real decision has to be made. We believe buyers and dealers should be able to review critical vehicle records in a format that is direct, practical, and built for action, not confusion.

This anniversary also marks the start of our next chapter. In March 2026, we welcomed Kevin Carter as Head of Product. As we continue to improve report clarity, usability, and decision-support tools across the platform, his leadership will help guide the next phase of product development at FAXVIN.

“Sixteen years in this market means sixteen years of earning trust one report at a time,” said a FAXVIN spokesperson. “We built FAXVIN to help people understand a vehicle’s past before they commit money, time, or risk. That remains our focus today, and it will remain our focus as we keep improving the platform for both consumers and businesses.”

As we look ahead, we remain committed to accuracy, accessibility, and continuous product improvement. Our job is simple: give people a clearer picture of a vehicle’s history so they can make better decisions with fewer surprises.
