REUTERS/Mike Blake (UNITED STATES - Tags: BUSINESS) Acquire Licensing RightsNEW YORK, Aug 25 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Tupperware Brands (TUP.N) is struggling to stop the rot.

Enter Brownie Wise, the saleswoman credited with pioneering the “Tupperware effect” of teaching women how to flog to their friends by hosting themed gatherings in their living rooms.

The one major app that's eluded him: Twitter. Threads skyrocketed out of the gate in large part because it was easy for existing Instagram users to create accounts on the new messaging service and connect with their established following. watch nowCurrently, Threads users are unable to search for topics or hashtags that represent hot topics.

Like with Threads, creators will wait to see how Twitter works for their peers before "spending much more time making content there," Kaletsky said.

Stratasys (SSYS.O) for now prefers a merger with peer Desktop Metal (DM.N), but a sweetened bid from Nano Dimension (2N5By.F) complicates matters. A simpler two-dimensional financial analysis suggests a snubbed offer from 3D Systems (DDD.N) may wind up the best option. The company’s nominees favor the Desktop Metal deal, while Nano’s back the alternative transaction. On May 25, Stratasys agreed to combine with Desktop Metal in an all-stock deal valued at $1.8 billion. On the same day, 3D Systems offered to buy Stratasys for $7.50 a share in cash and 1.3223 3D Systems shares for each Stratasys share.

Scientists have dubbed the dinosaur Gonkoken nanoi and say it weighed up to a metric ton and could grow to 4 meters (13.12 feet) in length according to the study published in Science Advances. In 2013, an expedition led by the Chilean Antarctic Institute (INACH) discovered fragments of yellowish bones at the bottom of a hillside close to the major tourist destination Torres del Paine in Patagonia. "(The) Gonkoken nanoi is not an advanced duck-billed dinosaur, but rather an older transitional duck-billed lineage: an evolutionary link to advanced forms," said Alexander Vargas, another study author. "Gon" means similar or similar to and "koken" means wild duck or swan.
