Muisjes
Muisjes (Dutch: [ˈmœyɕəs] ⓘ; lit. 'little mice') are aniseed comfits and are a traditional Dutch bread topping. While customary on bread, they are traditionally eaten on beschuit, or rusk. Muisjes is a registered trademark of Koninklijke De Ruijter BV. Muisjes are made of aniseeds with a sugared and colored outer layer. They are currently only produced by the Dutch food processing company De Ruijter, a brand acquired by Heinz in 2001.

Comfit
Comfits are confectionery consisting of dried fruits, nuts, seeds or spices coated with sugar candy, often through sugar panning. Almond comfits (also known as sugared almonds or Jordan almonds) in a muslin bag or other decorative container are a traditional gift at baptism and wedding celebrations in many countries of Europe and the Middle East, a custom which has spread to other countries such as Australia and Puerto Rico. Licorice comfits (sometimes sold as torpedoes)  are typically multi-colored, while almond comfits are usually white for weddings and may be brightly colored for other occasions.

A late medieval recipe for comfits is based on anise seeds, and suggests also making comfits with fennel, caraway, coriander, and diced ginger. These aniseed comfits seem to be a precursor of modern aniseed balls.

French almond comfits for a baptism

Red almond comfits, called confetti rossi, are used in Italy to celebrate the conferring of a degree.

It was colloquially known within the fledgling Royal Air Force as the "Super Handley".
The V/1500 which was shipped to Canada to attempt a transatlantic flight was flown in the US, and in 1919 crash-landed in a field at Mount Jewett, Pennsylvania. Photos appeared in the 20 February 1919 issue of the Bradford Journal newspaper.

Tritrans,polycis-undecaprenyl-diphosphate synthase (geranylgeranyl-diphosphate specific)
Tritrans,polycis-undecaprenyl-diphosphate synthase (geranylgeranyl-diphosphate specific) (EC 2.5.1.89) is an enzyme with systematic name geranylgeranyl-diphosphate:isopentenyl-diphosphate cistransferase (adding 7 isopentenyl units). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

geranylgeranyl diphosphate + 7 isopentenyl diphosphate  7 diphosphate + tritrans,heptacis-undecaprenyl diphosphate

This enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of the glycosyl carrier lipid in some archaebacteria.

Isopentenyl pyrophosphate
Isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP, isopentenyl diphosphate, or IDP) is an isoprenoid precursor. IPP is an intermediate in the classical, HMG-CoA reductase pathway (commonly called the mevalonate pathway) and in the non-mevalonate MEP pathway of isoprenoid precursor biosynthesis.

Interactive voice response
Interactive voice response (IVR) systems are automated telephony systems that interact with callers, gather information, and route calls to the appropriate recipient. They operate using voice recognition and Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) input from a telephone keypad. IVR systems are widely used to manage customer interactions efficiently, improve service accessibility, and streamline business operations.

IVR systems can be used to create self-service solutions for mobile purchases, banking payments, services, retail orders, utilities, travel information and weather conditions. In combination with systems such an automated attendant and automatic call distributor (ACD), call routing can be optimized for a better caller experience and workforce efficiency. IVR systems are often combined with automated attendant functionality. The term voice response unit (VRU) is sometimes used as well.
