Based upon a recent review, the Board of Trustees of the Direxion Shares ETF Trust has decided to liquidate and close 15 ETFs (each, a \"Fund\" and collectively, the \"Funds\"), based on the recommendation of the Funds' adviser, Rafferty Asset Management, LLC (\"Rafferty\"). Rafferty believes they cannot continue to operate the Funds in an economically efficient manner, due to the their inability to attract sufficient investment assets. As a result, the Board concluded that liquidating and closing the Funds would be in the best interest of the Funds and their shareholders. The Funds closing are as follows: Fund Ticker Direxion Russell Large Over Small Cap ETF RWLS Direxion Russell Small Over Large Cap ETF RWSL Direxion MSCI USA Cyclicals Over Defensives ETF RWCD Direxion MSCI USA Defensives Over Cyclicals ETF RWDC Direxion MSCI Developed Over Emerging Markets ETF RWDE Direxion MSCI Emerging Over Developed Markets ETF RWED Direxion FTSE Russell US Over International ETF RWUI Direxion FTSE Russell International Over US ETF RWIU PortfolioPlus S&P 500 ETF PPLC PortfolioPlus S&P Small Cap ETF PPSC PortfolioPlus S&P Mid Cap ETF PPMC PortfolioPlus Developed Markets ETF PPDM PortfolioPlus Emerging Markets ETF PPEM Direxion Daily 20+ Year Treasury Bear 1X Shares TYBS Direxion Daily Small Cap Bull 2X Shares SMLL The Funds will cease trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (\"NYSE\") and will be closed to purchase by investors as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on September 25, 2020 (the \"Closing Date\"). The Funds will not accept purchase orders after the Closing Date. Shareholders may sell their holdings in a Fund prior to the Closing Date subject to customary brokerage charges. However, from September 25, 2020 through October 2, 2020 (the \"Liquidation Date\") shareholders may only be able to sell their shares to certain broker-dealers and there is no assurance that there will be a market for a Fund's shares during this time period. Between the Closing Date and the Liquidation Date, each Fund will be in the process of closing down and liquidating its portfolio. This process will result in a Fund increasing its cash holdings and, as a consequence, not pursuing its investment objective. On or about the Liquidation Date, each Fund will liquidate its assets and distribute cash pro rata to all shareholders who have not previously redeemed or sold their shares. These distributions are taxable events. In addition, these payments to shareholders may include accrued capital gains and dividends. As calculated on the Liquidation Date, each Fund's net asset value will reflect the costs of closing the Fund. Once the distributions are complete, the Funds will terminate.

The use of derivatives such as futures contracts and swaps are subject to market risks that may cause their price to fluctuate over time. The ETFs do not attempt to, and should not be expected to, provide returns which are a multiple of the return of their respective index for periods other than a single day.

Dr. Eisen said, \"I really enjoyed the debates. Everyone was so nice. There was a real exchange of ideas. We agreed on so much until we got to talking about ideology.\" Candidates did not attack or disrespect one another. The Eisen campaign says that continued civil debate will benefit the winner and can serve as a model for meaningful dialogue. Two virtual debates were held earlier this week on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, offering the first opportunity for the candidates to interact, exchange ideas, and challenge each other on key issues since the primary. The first debate was hosted by the League of Women Voters and the second was hosted by the NAACP and The Journal News. \"While we were ambivalent about debates going in, we are energized by the class of the other candidates and by the elegant manner in which the debates unfolded,\" said Josh Smus, an Eisen campaign spokesperson. Dr. Eisen told his senior colleagues, \"This is an opportunity to go deep on ideas. But the district deserves longer and in-person debates where we can continue the dialogue.\" The Eisen campaign is looking forward to something working out. \"We hope someone steps up fast and offers to host two or three debates in a safe and socially distant way,\" Smus told reporters while preparing for the first of a series of community events throughout the district organized by the Eisen campaign.

Eliot Engel (N.Y.) and Rep. Pete King's (N.Y.) commitment to America's health by introducing the Medical Nutrition Therapy Act of 2020. The bill would provide coverage for Medicare beneficiaries to obtain treatment from registered dietitian nutritionists and other qualified nutrition experts for many common and costly chronic diseases. Many diet-related chronic conditions are contributing to poor COVID-19 outcomes. Minority populations have long faced chronic disease health disparities due to socioeconomic inequalities and reduced access to health care, healthful foods and safe places to be active. It is these same groups that are now disproportionately impacted by COVID-19. Increasing access to medical nutrition therapy is a critical part of the solution and the Academy calls on policymakers to take action. \"Medical nutrition therapy administered by a registered dietitian nutritionist is critical in helping clients manage chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, cancers, obesity and kidney disease,\" said registered dietitian nutritionist and Academy President Terri J. Raymond. \"Seniors deserve to have access to this cost-effective medical treatment.\" The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion reports that 90 percent of the country's $3.5 trillion in annual health care costs go to the treatment of people with chronic diseases and mental health conditions. More than two-thirds of seniors receiving Medicare live with multiple chronic conditions. The Medical Nutrition Therapy Act of 2020 would expand Medicare Part B coverage of outpatient medical nutrition therapy services for people with prediabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, malnutrition, eating disorders, cancer, celiac disease, HIV/AIDS and any other disease or condition causing unintentional weight loss or as determined necessary by the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services. This would add to existing Medicare Part B coverage for MNT for people with diabetes and renal disease. In addition, the bill would authorize nurse practitioners, physician's assistants, clinical nurse specialists and psychologists to refer patients for MNT. \"The Academy thanks Reps. Engel and King for their continued efforts on behalf of New York and their recognition of the importance of nutritional services in improving America's health,\" Raymond said. Representing more than 100,000 credentialed nutrition and dietetics practitioners, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is the world's largest organization of food and nutrition professionals. The Academy is committed to improving the nation's health and advancing the profession of dietetics through research, education and advocacy. Visit the Academy at www.eatright.org.

HELENA, Calif., Dec. 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --For the first time ever, aline of glassware designedaround the flavor of wine has been released to tradeand consumers in the United Statesby The Oneida Group. The set of three glasses correspondsto three keyflavor/stylesfound in wine: Crisp & Fresh, Creamy & Silky and Bold & Powerful, intuitively putting the power of glass selection in the hands ofwine consumersandtrade professionals. Liberating and simple in premise, the Flavor First line of glassware was meticulously designedoverthree years by wine expert and lauded author Karen MacNeil in collaboration with Senior Vice President of Design andCreative Director, Paul Gebhardt of The Oneida Group,producer since 1880 of fine table and kitchenware to homes and restaurants worldwide. Their idea was simpledesign wine glasses around wine flavor,not around wine regions or wine varietals. Taking into consideration the architecture of the glass, the nature of the human palate, and the desire of consumers and food service professionals to simplify this complex subject, MacNeil and Gebhardt had an \"aha\" moment together at a wine training Karen conducted for The Oneida Group. Why, they asked, wasn't there a stem that took the overthinking out of glassware? Why not focus on the fundamental pleasure and flavor of wine itself? Trials, tastings, iterations over time, and testing of 40 different design options yielded a simple solution. MacNeil stated, \"As a writer and wine teacher who's taught thousands of people how to taste and evaluate wine, I listen carefully to how people talk about wine and the words they use. Most people are non-technical; they use ideas such as 'bold reds' or 'creamy chardonnays' to describe what they like. In other words, they use flavor words.\" Always academic and thoughtful in her approach, Karen looked at 35 major grape varieties and realized that the glass diameter at the widest part of the glass had the greatest impact on the expression of the wines. As she states, \"Oxygen has a profound effect on wine. For each of our three glasses, the widest part of the glass is at a different position.\" Gebhardt, said of the collaboration, \"Karenand her team areamazing, and together we made the idea a reality. Along with flavor as a driver of form, I wanted to create a line that had as many back-of-the-house operational advantages as possible. The design needed to be easy to live with at home, as well as ina commercial operation,both of which are key audiences for our company.\" Importantly, the vessels were designed for daily life at the table, and as such are dishwasher safe. While each glass is endowed with a precision bowl shape and a thin rim typically reserved for glassware three times the price, the carefully calibrated \"pulled\" stem and foot ensure that the glasses will endure through meals and explorations. All three stems are the same height, making a seamless presentation for a wine tasting or meal with different pairings and ease of storage. The glasses are American designed and made in Germany from lead-free crystal. The core stems include (all sold at retail in sets of four and six): Crisp & Fresh for champagne, prosecco, sparkling wine, sauvignon blanc, riesling, and pinot grigio plus light ross and all wines with a fresh, bright quality Creamy & Silky for chardonnay, chenin blanc, pinot gris plus richer ros wines and pinot noir, chianti, shiraz and all wines with a round, silky texture Bold & Powerful for very full bodied, oaky chardonnay, cabernet sauvignon, merlot, Bordeaux, zinfandel, malbec, Barolo, syrah and all wines that feature a bold texture and firm structural backbone Petite Stem: Designed for more casual gatherings, a next generation version of the stemless glass but, importantly, with a foot to allow for swirling and easier handling. It's also great for beer, iced tea, and select cocktails such as a classic Gin & Tonic. Available for sale in sets of four and six or as a variety set of six with two stems of each, the glasses are available at a number of retailers such as Amazon, wine.com, Macy's, Dillard's, TheBay.com (Canada) and are also available at Oneida.comand KarenMacNeil.com.Priced at $74.99 per set of six, the per stem price averages $12.50, extremely affordable when compared to other similar quality wine glasses on the market today.

That's why Davtyan Medical Weight Loss & Wellness of Los Angeles and Community Bariatrics Hamilton of Indianapolis are encouraging individuals with obesity to explore options to reduce the health risks associated with COVID-19. Recent concerning studies have linked the influence of obesity to COVID-19 cases. In fact, there is a higher prevalence of COVID-19 hospitalizations among those with obesity.ii Research also indicates that people with obesity have worse outcomes with COVID-19 infection, including respiratory failure, need for mechanical ventilation, and higher mortality.iii \"The worldwide novel virus pandemic combined with the global obesity epidemic is a dangerous situation,\" commented Keith McEwen, M.D., medical director at Community Bariatrics Hamilton, Indianapolis,IN. \"Consumers need to have a comprehensive understanding of the link between obesity and the virus. We encourage our patients to take control of their health by taking action now to reduce their risk of developing severe COVID-19 illness. As medical experts warn that a second wave of COVID-19 this fall or winter could be more serious than the first, now is the time for people with obesity to seek surgical options for losing weight.\" David Davtyan, M.D., bariatric surgeon at Davtyan Medical Weight Loss & Wellness of Los Angeles said, \"We intentionally create personalized programs that include an adjustable and reversible surgery like the Lap-Band Program, combined with support tools and resources to experience long-term weight loss and improved health.\" Although the surgical treatment of obesity and its complications has been postponed in many states during the COVID-19 pandemic, the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) states that metabolic and bariatric surgery should be resumed as it is medically necessary and the best treatment for those with the life-threatening and life-limiting disease of severe obesity.iv The Lap-Band Adjustable Gastric Banding System, manufactured by ReShape Lifesciences, is the only FDA-approved, laparoscopic weight-loss device indicated for a BMI of 30 or higher commercially available in the U.S. The procedure has been performed over 1,000,000 times since 1993 worldwide, it's covered by most insurance companies and backed by over 25 years of clinical evidence. Notably, the Lap-Band is proven to be the safest bariatric procedure available on the market,vbacked by 20 years of clinical data demonstrating lower complication rates compared to other surgical procedures. The Lap-Band provided an average of 46% excess weight loss at one year,vi and if for any reason a Lap-Band needed to be removed, it is easily reversible. In obese and severely obese patients that had less weight to lose (BMI 30-40), percent excess weight loss was significantly higher; ~70%.vii Both Dr. Davtyan and Dr. McEwen report that in their comprehensive programs they commonly see 60-65% excess weight loss at one year. The procedure is typically performed in less than an hour and can be done at an ambulatory surgery center, with patients typically returning home the same day. The Lap-Band features an adjustable gastric band that is placed around the upper stomach to help limit food intake and promote a feeling of fullness. With regular adjustments that help a patient to continue losing weight, the Lap-Band is a long-term tool that gives one more power over hunger and more control over weight loss. Community Bariatrics Hamilton in Indianapolis offers several weight-loss options to improve health and reduce the health risks associated with COVID-19. Dr. McEwen offers the Lap-Band Program and an Intragastric Balloon.He has performed over 2,000 Lap-Band Procedures. Davtyan Medical Weight Loss & Wellness of Los Angelesoffers the Lap-Band Program, gastric balloons and gastric sleeve.Dr. Davtyan has performed over 2,000 Lap-Band Procedures. He personally had a Lap-Band in Belgium in 2001 and did the first outpatient Lap-Band Procedure in California.

Reflective of its surging client base, DGTL is posting blowout revenues. The company's revenue rose 83% year over year during Q1 FY2021, ended August 31, 2020, to $1.16 million. In Q2, revenue increased to $1.25 million, up 70% from the year prior quarter. DTGL has another potential catalyst in the coming weeks when it discloses financial results for the latest quarter, and if the past is any indication, the numbers could be exceptional. Hitting on all cylinders, DGTL also just signed a joint venture agreementto collaborate with Loop Insights to provide social media and advanced data-collection programs to its respective sports entertainment and fantasy gaming clients surrounding major league sports leagues such as the NCAA, PGA, NFL, MLB and others. Loop Insights chose DGTL to gain direct access to these major brands and more, and to improve its presence in the $355 billion global digital advertising market. Top-Notch Clients DGTL is in a prime situation by combining top trends and tech under one roof. Tier-one clients have signed on in spades, including DGTL activating a recent campaign for a client described as\"a Nasdaq-listed Digital Sports Gaming and Entertainment brand\" during 2021 PGA Masters tournament. Disclosure policies don't allow DGTL to state its client's name, but a quick examination of the description (global leader in \"fantasy sports and mobile sports betting applications,\" $25-plus billion market cap) points squarely to DraftKings. The new deal comes on the heels of completing a NCAA March Madness basketball tournament campaign with DraftKings. DraftKings' fantasy and online betting platform covers essentially every major sport worldwide from college through pros, which speaks to the opportunity for continuous campaigns across multiple verticals going forward. In addition, last month a DGTL campaign was activated for \"a globally recognized CPG brand company.\" Having to be opaque, DGTL also called the client, which looks to be Quaker Oats, \"150 years old. . . an American food conglomerate based in Chicago. . . owned and operated as a subsidiary of PepsiCo.\"If the quality and efficacy of Hashoff's technology can be measured by the quality of companies employing it, then it's leading the pack. Ad Dollars Go Where Consumers Go There's been a steady erosion of time spent on traditional media in the United States for more than a decade with digital dominance in emerging in 2018. Since 2011, average daily time spent on traditional media (TV, print, terrestrial radio, billboards) has fallen about 20% to approximately 360 minutes. At the same time, usage of digital media more than doubledfrom about 210 minutes to 450 minutes and the pandemic only accelerated the digital trend. Social media and influencer spending are where companies now devote a bulk of their advertising and marketing capital rather than traditional broadcast and print media. Out of an estimated $572 billion in total global ad spend in 2020, $291.7 billion was allocated to digital ads. Social ad spending rose 20% year over year to $43 billion, while social media influencer/content marketing a hot new trend jumped 50% to $9.7 billion last year and is expected to double again in the coming 12 to 18 months. This tsunami of digital ad spend plays directly to the strengths of tech accelerator DGTL, as the company builds a portfolio of B2B enterprise SaaS in the digital media, martech, adtech and e-commerce sectors. Last year, DGTL (an acronym for Digital Growth Technologies and Licensing) acquired Hashoff, an enterprise-level, self-service CaaS built on artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) technology. DGTL's deal to acquire 100% of Hashoffrequires the AI startup to meet or exceed annual sales revenue of up to $8 million, which is a +400% revenue growth from the date of acquisition, in order to receive 100% of cash payments. DGTL's recognized Hashoff's prowess at the forefront of technical and consumer trends including social, influencer, AI/ML and the gig economy to level the playing field and capture market share from larger peers. The company excels in operational efficiencies, which contains costs and results in savings passed on to clients while simultaneously improving efficacy and margins. The company offers a full-service platform that includes more than 150 million freelance content creators. Using cutting-edge AI/ML tech, global brands have the ability to identify the top-ranked digital content publishers for their specific needs, subsequently engaging them, managing marketing campaigns and tracking the performance all within the Hashoff architecture. Carving an Enviable Niche Investors will be listening for rumblings of any additional M&A activity from DGTL. Management, which includes former senior executives from companies including Hearst, Yahoo, AOL-Time Warner, RocketFuel, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, RBC, and IPG, have made it clear that the intent is to grow the company both organically and inorganically. The explosive growth of Hashoff puts the company's ability on full display with the first martech SaaS acquisition within its portfolio-based development model. Importantly, the leadership team has kept the cap structure tight with only 36 million shares outstanding, with approximately $1.5 million in cash and no debt. Unabated Demand With traditional media flailing, the ethos of the marketing community is next-generation digital processes. Even traditional digital methods, such as pop-up ads and auto-play videos, are becoming quickly archaic. Targeted marketing that feels native, such as with a social media influencer, using AI and ML to most effectively inform both market and strategy are the technologies that will drive the market for decades.

Use your understanding of the content to express the main ideas and crucial details in a shorter, coherent, and natural sounding text. \nText: MCLEAN, Va. & BEDFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MITRE Engenuity will assess commercial cybersecurity products ability to detect the threat posed by the groups commonly known as Sandworm and Wizard Spider, both of whom have used data encryption as a key element of their attacks. Applications for evaluation are available through May 28. Analysts believe that Sandworm used data encryption to incur more than $10 billion in damage to industry in attacks with its NotPetya malware. The group is also widely suspected of attacks that have shut down the Ukrainian electrical grid on multiple occasions. Wizard Spider has reportedly used data encryption to steal more than $150 million through ransomware attacks. The evaluations will use ATT&CK, a MITRE-curated knowledge base of adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures that is based on published threat reporting. ATT&CK is freely available and is used by cyber defenders in areas including finance, healthcare, energy, manufacturing, retail, and government to understand adversary behavior and tradecraft. MITRE Engenuity will evaluate each participating vendors ability to detect the threats posed by Sandworm and Wizard Spider in two distinct scenarios during the evaluation. All results will be released, and the format will allow the public to see them in their entirety or filtered by adversary. Sandworm and Wizard Spider use a range of strategies and tactics that are typical of a broad range of adversaries that employ data encryption to achieve their goals, said Frank Duff, ATT&CK Evaluations lead. Were increasingly receiving requests to address high-impact techniques like data encryption, which can devastate healthcare organizations, municipal governments, and a wide range of other critical infrastructure, Duff said. However, these emulated scenarios will still include the full range of tactics and techniques that these groups use as they penetrate and operate on networks prior to encrypting data. MITRE Engenuity plans to announce results shortly from its evaluations based on Carbanak and FIN7, groups that analysts believe have stolen more than $1 billion across hundreds of businesses in the financial services and hospitality industries over the past five years. Earlier ATT&CK evaluations examined the threat posed by APT3, a Chinese-based threat group that analysts believe has targeted U.S. organizations and Hong Kong-based political targets, and APT29, a group attributed to the Russian government and the compromise of the Democratic National Committee that started in 2015. Cybersecurity vendors may apply for an evaluation via [email protected]. The evaluations are paid for by vendors and are intended to help vendors and end users better understand their products capabilities in relation to the ATT&CK framework. MITRE Engenuity makes the methodology and resulting data publicly available so other organizations may benefit and conduct their own analysis and interpretation. The evaluations do not provide scores, ranks, or endorsements. Results will be announced in early 2022. Vendors can sign up for an optional extension to their detection evaluation that will exercise their ability to protect against specific adversary techniques utilized by these groups. About MITRE Engenuity MITRE Engenuity is a tech foundation that collaborates with the private sector on challenges that demand public interest solutions, to include cybersecurity, infrastructure resilience, healthcare effectiveness, microelectronics, quantum sensing and next generation communications. www.mitre-engenuity.org",

The cloud, Internet of Things (IoT), big data analytics, and virtualization technologies are helping organizations transform into digital businesses. However, several enterprises' networks are not built for the change as per the digital business requirements. As organizations progress to cloud and adopt new technologies, the way they architect and set up network infrastructure must change. Several organizations still prefer a hybrid approach to internet connectivity that adds endpoints based on project-specific needs. The managed network services market size is expected to grow from USD 52.7 billion in 2020 to USD 71.6 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period. Managed network services offer a systematic approach to manage an organization's network and security needs. Managed network services enable effective monitoring and reduce support time, enabling enterprises to prevent network downtime and hiccups. The key managed network services types include managed Local Area Network (LAN), managed Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi), managed Virtual Private Network (VPN), managed Wide Area Network (WAN), network monitoring, and managed network security.

The company has released two new products: Broad-SpectrumCBD Vegan and Full-Spectrum Multivitamin Gummies. These new products are designed to give customers a less-intimidating method to incorporate infused organic CBD as a part of their health and wellness routines. Continue Reading Best CBD Products Vegan CBD Gummies While CBD gummies have been on the market from competing brands for some time, BlosumCBD has become one of the first companies to take the extra step of ensuring that their gummies are not only completely THC-free but are also vegan-friendly and third-party lab tested for potency and quality. The Broad-Spectrum Organic Vegan CBD Gummies is available with a dosage of 25 mg of CBD per gummy. Unlike other brands, these gummies are made with only natural ingredients, including MCT coconut oil. As for the second new product that BlosumCBD has released, Full-Spectrum Multivitamin CBD Gummies. These gummies contain 10 mg of CBD per gummy. Like the Broad-Spectrum Organic Vegan CBD Gummies, these gummies are GMO-free. \"This is a very exciting time for BlosumCBD as we explore new ways to help people improve their lives. We are experiencing a dramatic shift in the wellness industry as more people are turning to CBD products to help their bodies achieve the best performance possible,\" said Anthony Kay, director of operations at BlosumCBD.With the addition of these new products, consumers will now have the option to decide if they prefer full-spectrum or broad-spectrum CBD products. Some customers have concerns about low levels of THC in full-spectrum CBD products. This is despite the fact that BlosumCBD's full-spectrum products contain less than 0.3 percent of THC and do not get you high at all! Now, the broad-spectrum CBD product gives consumers an option that is completely THC-free. Instead, BlosumCBD has confirmed that its broad-spectrum products contain flavonoids and terpenes for added health benefits. Given the popularity of CBD gummies as an easy method for consuming CBD, BlosumCBD's newest gummy products have been developed specifically to mimic the taste and consistency of gummy bear candies. With the addition of natural flavors including strawberry, orange and grape juice concentrate, elderberry juice concentrate, and annatto, customers have the option to purchase either product in several fruit flavors.As a result, BlosumCBD has managed to produce full-spectrum and broad-spectrum CBD products that offer several benefits to consumers. They are easy to administer, highly portable, and can be discreetly used. As a disclaimer, consumers are urged to consult a physician before incorporating CBD products as part of any ongoing regime as the new products are not intended to diagnose or treat any pre-existing medical conditions and they're not FDA approved.BlosumCBD only uses hemp oil that is derived from cannabis plants that are produced according to the guidelines set for by GMP or ISO certified processes (0.3% THC). The new products will now be available for sale on the company's website located at blosumcbd.com and they're currently offering up to 30% discount on all CBD products including free shipping.Media contact:Shane Anthony888-938-7837[emailprotected] SOURCE BlosumCBD Related Links http://www.blosumcbd.com",

We are strategically reducing spending and consolidating our company-wide footprint. These actions will enable us to maintain a competitive cost structure and position us for growth.\" \"Aerial Work Platforms (AWP) improved its operating performance delivering 3.0% operating margin reflecting the gradual sequential improvement in business activity.

These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures being disclosed by other companies. In addition, the Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures. Terex believes that this non-GAAP information is useful to understanding its operating results and the ongoing performance of its underlying businesses. Management of Terex uses both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to establish internal budgets and targets and to evaluate the Company's financial performance against such budgets and targets. The amounts described below are unaudited, are reported in millions of U.S. dollars (except share data and percentages), and are as of or for the period ended September30, 2020, unless otherwise indicated. After-tax gains or losses and per share amountsare calculated using pre-tax amounts, applying a tax rate based on jurisdictional rates to arrive at an after-tax amount. This number is divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding to provide the impact on earnings per share. The Company highlights the impact of these items because when discussing earnings per share, the Company adjusts for items it believes are not reflective of ongoing operating activities in the periods. Restructuring and related charges are a recurring item as Terex's restructuring programs usually require more than one year to fully implement and the Company is continually seeking to take actions that could enhance its efficiency. Although recurring, these charges are subject to significant fluctuations from period to period due to varying levels of restructuring activity and the inherent imprecision in the estimates used to recognize the costs and taxes associated with severance and termination benefits in the countries in which the restructuring actions occur.

The Company defines free cash flow as Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, plus (minus) increases (decreases) in Terex Financial Services finance receivables consisting of sales-type leases and commercial loans (\"TFS Assets\"), less Capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sale of capital assets. The Company believes that this measure of free cash flow provides management and investors further useful information on cash generation or use in our primary operations.

AllianceRx Walgreens Prime, one of the largest specialty and home delivery pharmacies in the country, helps patients prepare for this challenge through multidisciplinary, holistic patient care, including access to more than 60 limited distribution oncology drugs. Most recently, Pfizer added to this list by granting the specialty pharmacy access to four targeted cancer therapies that treat metastatic melanoma, metastatic colorectal cancer, and two types of leukemia. These include: Besponsa (inotuzumab ozogamicin), an antibody-drug conjugate used to treat adults with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who achieved remissionwith previous cancer treatment, but whose ALL has returned (relapsed), or those whose ALL did not respond to previous treatment (refractory). Mylotarg (gemtuzumab ozogamicin), an antibody-drug conjugate used in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of newly diagnosed CD33-positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in adults and pediatric patients one month and older. Braftovi (encorafenib) and Mektovi (binimetinib), kinase inhibitors indicated for use in combination for the treatment of patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma with a BRAF V600E or V600K mutation as detected by an FDA-approved test. Braftovi is a prescription medicine used in combination with cetuximab for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic colorectal cancer with a BRAF V600E mutation, as detected by an FDA-approved test, after prior therapy. \"We are proud of our longstanding relationship with Pfizer,\" says Tracey James, RPh, senior vice president of pharmacy services at AllianceRx Walgreens Prime. \"Our team members are specially trained to support patients with rare cancers at every step of the way, so they can concentrate on their health.\" What makes rare cancers rareRare cancers are those with an incidence of fewer than six cases per 100,000 individuals per year in the U.S. Overall, approximately 20% of patients with cancer in the U.S. are diagnosed with a rare cancer.1 Compare that to 123 cases per 100,000, the incidence rate for both breast and prostate cancer the most common cancers in women and men, respectively according to the American Cancer Society. \"Rare cancers present unique and greater challenges than other cancers. They are more difficult to diagnose than other cancers, often requiring more physician visits and expense. As a result, the cancer may be more advanced when diagnosed,\" says Amy Pfeifer, PharmD., oncology clinical program manager at AllianceRx Walgreens Prime. \"Treatment options as well as patient information may be limited. Emotional support, which is so important for cancer patients, can present challenges, because finding someone else with the same rare cancer may be difficult.\" A unique and holistic approach to careAfter diagnosis,AllianceRxWalgreens Prime cliniciansreviewprescribedmedications with the patient, as well asany applicable warningsor potential side effects. However,medicationisonlyonecomponentofthepatient's care journey atAllianceRxWalgreens Prime.Patients on self-administeredoncologymedications benefit from the pharmacy's Connected Care Oncologyclinical managementprogram, whosepatented technologyguidesinteractions with patients, helping them stay on treatment and manage any possible side effects. \"Our pharmacists are actively involved in the management of the patient using Connected Care's system-driven activities to monitor adherence, side effects and other triggered activities or tasks,\" says Pfeifer. \"Depending on the prescribed treatment, a patient's support program may include our Cycle Management Program which offers additional pharmacist support during the first month of therapy.\" AllianceRxWalgreens Prime's specialty pharmacistsalso connect patients and caregivers with resources including support groups, financial and co-payassistance,counselors,andanything else the patientand his or her familymayneed. An additional show of support is the pharmacy's relationship with various advocacy organizations. \"We're a proud sponsor of CancerCare, which provides access to educational information to all patients and families affected by cancer. Supporting organizations like CancerCare aligns with our core values. We want to support organizations that support our patients,\" says James. Simplifying the patient experience with innovationEarlier this year,AllianceRxWalgreens Prime announced the release of new digital tools allowing patients with rare cancers to manage their care online. The digital clinical assessments, available only through AllianceRx Walgreens Prime, simplify patients' online experience when refilling their prescriptions. This means patients with rare cancers who are handling their treatment well can choose to order refills online rather than calling the pharmacy. The tools' proprietary algorithms use patient-provided information to ask relevant questions and identify specific needs for individual support. Patients complete their entire transaction online and still have the option to speak to a pharmacist if they desire, or if their responses necessitate follow up with a clinician. \"We are engaging with patients on their terms. These tools help us know if patients are safely taking their medicine and achieving benefit from their therapy. Our patient-focused and holistic approach to care, combined with maintaining our leading limited distribution access so our patients can have the latest drugs on the market, continues to be a focus for us,\" says James. \"It's how AllianceRx Walgreens Prime shows up for every patient with rare cancer and beyond.\" For full prescribing information, black box warnings for Besponsa and Mylotarg, and any other warnings for these medicines, visit Pfizer.com or dailymed.nlm.nih.gov.

(\"NMM\"), who were NMM shareholders at the time of closing of the merger, as they have yet to submit properly completed letters of transmittal to ApolloMed in order to receive their pro rata portion of ApolloMed's common stock and warrants as contemplated under that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 21, 2016, among ApolloMed, NMM, Apollo Acquisition Corp. (\"Merger Subsidiary\") and Kenneth Sim, M.D., as amended, pursuant to which Merger Subsidiary merged with and into NMM, with NMM as the surviving corporation. Pending such receipt, such former NMM shareholders have the right to receive, without interest, their pro rata share of dividends or distributions with a record date after the effectiveness of the merger. Our consolidated financial statements have treated such shares of common stock as outstanding, given the receipt of the letter of transmittal is considered perfunctory and ApolloMed is legally obligated to issue these shares in connection with the merger. Shares of ApolloMed's common stock owned by APC, a VIE of the Company, are legally issued and outstanding but excluded from shares of common stock outstanding in the Company's consolidated financial statements, as such shares are treated as treasury shares for accounting purposes. Such shares, therefore, are not included in the number of shares of common stock outstanding used to calculate the Company's earnings per share. About Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc.

(\"UCI\") to Bright Health Company of California, which closed on April 30, 2020 pursuant to the stock purchase agreement as disclosed on the current report on form 8-K filed on May 6, 2020. UCAP is a 100% owned subsidiary of APC and its 48.9% investment in UCI is an excluded asset and as such remained solely for the benefit of APC and its shareholders. As such, any proceeds or gain on sale will not affect the net income and adjusted EBITDA attributable to ApolloMed. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release contains the non-GAAP financial measures earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (\"EBITDA\") and adjusted EBITDA, of which the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (\"GAAP\") is net income (loss). These measures are not in accordance with, or alternatives to GAAP, and may be different from other non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company uses adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure of our operations, for financial and operational decision-making, and as a supplemental means of evaluating period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, excluding (income) loss from equity method investments and other income earned that are not related to the Company's normal operations. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes the effect on EBITDA of certain IPAs we recently acquired. The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with relevant and useful information, as it allows investors to evaluate the operating performance of the business activities without having to account for differences recognized because of non-core and non-recurring financial information. When GAAP financial measures are viewed in conjunction with non-GAAP financial measures, investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of the Company's ongoing operating performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among those indicators the Company uses as a basis for evaluating operational performance, allocating resources, and planning and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures. To the extent this release contains historical or future non-GAAP financial measures, the Company has provided corresponding GAAP financial measures for comparative purposes. Reconciliation between certain GAAP and non-GAAP measures is provided above. SOURCE Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. Related Links http://apollomed.net",

I highly recommend Tugboat Logic to anyone needing to prepare for a SOC 2 audit,\" said Jim Burke, Executive Vice President at CheckpointID. \"Without a doubt, Tugboat allowed us to reach our SOC 2 compliance faster than we ever believed we could. This was not only a cost savings for us, but opened new revenue opportunities with customers. The Questionnaire add-on has, in just a few short months, already saved us at least 100 hours and over time, with its machine learning capabilities, it will become even more efficient and save us even more time,\" said Karin Cross-Smith, President at Jorsek, makers of easyDITA. \"After evaluating several other solutions, our search team unanimously agreed that Tugboat Logic was the best solution, based on its usability, intuitiveness and feature set.The Security Questionnaire Response feature is a significant time saver when it comes to working with customer and prospect compliance requirements,\" said Brett Allison, Director of Technical Services at IntelliMagic.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresAdjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share attributable to common stockholders are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude merger, acquisition, restructuring and certain legal costs, income taxes, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share attributable to common stockholders exclude merger, acquisition, restructuring and certain legal costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense and other nonrecurring items as well as the income tax effects of these non-GAAP adjustments. We use these non-GAAP financial measures as key performance measures because we believe they facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period by excluding potential differences primarily caused by variations in capital structures, tax positions, the impact of acquisitions, restructuring and certain legal costs, the impact of depreciation and amortization expense on our fixed assets and the impact of stock-based compensation expense.

Use your understanding of the content to express the main ideas and crucial details in a shorter, coherent, and natural sounding text. \nText: PARK RIDGE, Ill., Feb. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --(AANA)Leaders of the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA) congratulated Denis McDonough on his confirmation as Secretary of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and pledged the AANA's continued support of the VA to ensure the nation's veterans receive timely, expert, quality care. In a Feb. 8 letter to the secretary, AANA CEO Randall D. Moore, DNP, CRNA, MBA, highlighted the critical role Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) play in the VA healthcare system. Moore requested a meeting with the new secretary to continue the AANA's discussions with the agency on the need for permanently expanding full practice authority within the scope of CRNA licensing for providing anesthesia services to veterans in every state. Permanently removing barriers for CRNAs mean less staff shortages in VA medical facilities, easing the back log of waiting patients, said Moorehimself a veteran. A retired commissioned officer of the Army Reserve with more than 22 years of military service, Moore served as an infantryman, combat medic, and nurse anesthetist. He served as an active-duty CRNA with the Army, including with forward surgical teams in Afghanistan. \"Nurse anesthetists are experienced and highly trained anesthesia professionals who provide high-quality patient care, demonstrated through evidence in decades of scientific research,\" wrote Moore. \"By standardizing care delivery models across the country via permanent full practice authority for CRNAs, veterans will receive consistently safe and high-quality care delivery in any VHA facility. More than 1,000 CRNAs are available in the VHA to provide every type of anesthesia care as well as chronic pain management services to veterans.\" \"We appreciate the work the agency has already accomplished to protect our nation's veterans, especially during the [COVID-19] public health emergency,\" wrote Moore. The public health emergency \"has shown the urgent need for healthcare professionals to care for patients and also highlights the important role that CRNAs play in our healthcare system, especially when workforce barriers to practice are eliminated both at the state and federal levels,\" he said. In April 2020, the VA issued Directive 1899, which allowed healthcareprofessionals, including CRNAs, to practice and operate within the full scope of the license, registration, or certification. This past fall, the VA issued an interim final rule confirming that VA healthcare professionals, including CRNAs, may practice their profession consistent with the scope and requirements of their VA employment, notwithstanding any state license, registration, certification, or other requirements that unduly interfere with their practice. The rulemaking also confirms the VA's authority to establish national standards of practice for healthcare professionals, which will standardize a healthcare professional's practice in all VA medical facilities. CRNAs are the primary providers of anesthesia to U.S. military personnel. The ability of CRNAs to provide high-quality care, even under the most difficult circumstances, has been recognized by every branch of the U.S. military. CRNAs have full practice authority in the Army, Navy, and Air Force and are the predominant provider of anesthesia on forward surgical teams and in combat support hospitals, where 90 percent of forward surgical teams are staffed by CRNAs. \"We appreciate the VA and VHA's recognition of CRNAs' value and skill to healthcare, including the work on Directive 1899 that emphasized the importance of allowing CRNAs to practice to the full extent of their training,\" said Moore. \"We strongly applaud the move by the VHA to remove barriers to care for our nation's veterans, including encouraging facilities to implement full practice authority for CRNAs, to allow them to practice to the top of their scope and education. This move allowed the VHA greater flexibility to care for our veterans, in a more efficient and cost-effective way that increases access to care,\" he wrote. \"While we applaud the temporary removal of workforce barriers during this emergency, our nation's veterans deserve access to timely, cost-effective and high-quality care within the VA health system at all times, and we think that it's critical that full practice authority for CRNAs working within the VA be made permanent.\" SOURCE American Association of Nurse Anesthetists Related Links www.aana.com",

The global asthma therapeutics market grew at a CAGR of around 4% during 2014-2019. Looking forward, the global asthma therapeutics market to continue its moderate growth during the next five years. Asthma therapeutics refer to various pharmaceutical drugs that are used for the treatment of asthma. Asthma is usually triggered by indoor and outdoor causative agents, including pollution, allergens and dust. These therapeutics are usually bronchodilators and anti-inflammatory drugs, which include corticosteroids, long-acting beta-agonists (LABA), methylxanthine, immunomodulators and leukotriene modifiers. A number of combination therapy drugs are also used that can be inhaled, injected, or orally administered. These drugs expand the passageway into the lungs and enable the movement of air to improve breathing. They also aid in clearing mucus from the lungs that gets coughed out with ease. The increasing prevalence of asthma and other respiratory disorders, along with improvements in the diagnostic technologies, is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. Furthermore, rising awareness among the masses regarding the availability of effective asthma therapeutics is also driving the market growth. For instance, asthmatic patients are primarily treated with inhaled corticosteroids and patients with advanced conditions or persistent asthma are treated with target-specific drugs. There is also an extensive demand for monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that block immunoglobulin E and specific cytokines. The development of combination therapies for the treatment of respiratory diseases is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Increasing healthcare expenditures, extensive research, and development (R&D) activities in the field of medical sciences and improvements in the healthcare infrastructure are some of the other factors that are expected to drive the market further.

In addition, Workhorse has entered into an exchange agreement (the \"Exchange Agreement\") with the holder of its existing 4.5% convertible notes (the \"Existing Notes\") to exchange the full $70.0 million outstanding principal amount of those notes for shares of the Company's common stock. After the closing and release of the proceeds, the Company will have over $270 million in cash available. The NPA provides that the Notes will initially be convertible into common stock by the holders at $36.14 per share, which is a premium of 35% over the closing price of the common stock on Friday, October 9th, subject to certain potential closing adjustments based on the average trading price for the two trading days prior to closing, and further subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments and adjustments for certain corporate events. The Note will mature in four years and will bear interest at a rate of 4.0% per year paid quarterly starting on January 15, 2021, which rate may be reduced to 2.75% if the Company meets certain conditions. Interest can be paid at the Company's option either in cash or, subject to certain conditions, stock. \"With this financing in place, we can more quickly advance our production efforts heading into 2021 by increasing our supply chain component volumes, hiring more manufacturing employees and automating certain sub-assembly processes,\" said Workhorse CEO Duane Hughes. \"We can also accelerate our production timeline for new, high-demand customer products, including a refrigeration truck for grocery applications as well as a purpose-built class 2 delivery van, allowing us to address one of the fastest growing vehicle markets in the U.S. These new vehicles within our portfolio of products, along with the expanding operations of our drone business, will help to further solidify our leadership and reach in the last-mile EV delivery segment.\" The Noteswill be guaranteed by all the Company's current and future subsidiaries, will be secured by liens on substantially all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and will rank senior in right of payment to all the unsecured debt of the Company and its subsidiaries.

With the majority (61%) of employed Americans working from home due to COVID-19, for many there likely isn't a definitive timeline in place for a return to the traditional workplace, and employers may not be in a rush to have them come back. According to the survey, an overwhelming majority of employed Americans working from home due to COVID-19(70%) say they can get more work done while working from home now that they don't have as many in-person meetings. 76% ofemployed Americans working from home due to COVID-19 are using video conferencing more often, and most (63%) said they can accomplish more during a video conference meeting while working from home than in an in-person meeting. \"We've seen remote work and digital transformation accelerate faster in the last three months than in the last three years. As we approach our 'next normal,' we're recognizing that we can be productive without being in a physical office or attending a physical event,\" said Mark Roberts, CMO, PGi. \"Millions of people around the world were forced to work from home due to the pandemic, and we've seen new industries and new applications for collaboration software and services that keep businesses running and workers productive over video from the comfort and safety of our homes.\" PGi, a business communications provider,commissioned The Harris Poll to better understand employed Americans' sentiment and the impact working from home has had on their views regarding work and productivity. This survey was conducted online within the United States by TheHarrisPoll on behalf ofPGifrom June 11-15, 2020 among 2,026 U.S. adults ages 18 and older (745employed Americans working from home due to COVID-19). When Will In-Person Events and Meetings Come Back? Highlights from the PGi survey show 75% of employed Americans working from home due to COVID-19 say working from home made them realize in-person meetings aren't always needed. In fact, 69% said working from home made them realize how many unnecessary in-person meetings they previously attended. The data shows that working from home seems to be just as productive if not more so than being in the office. Given the success of working from home, it's not surprising that 54% of employed Americans working from home due to COVID-19 would not be comfortable attending large, in-person work-related conferences or events this year. \"The unwillingness to attend in-person events doesn't surprise us at all,\" added Roberts. \"We've seenrecord-breaking usage and demand for our webcasting and streaming eventsover the past few months, including a 350% increase in demand for our virtual events and a 500% increase in the number of people engaging with our streamed events.In fact, we envision that events in the future will require a hybrid approach to ensure safety and comfort for all attendees to participate in-person or virtually. Many of our customers have commented that this is simply a better way to attend an event.\" Broader Implications Surprisingly, only 8% of employed Americans worked from home before COVID-19. Yet, pre-COVID survey datafrom PGi found that the most productive place for working adults aside from their desk is home, proving people wanted the freedom and flexibility to work remotely long before the pandemic forced the issue. While the benefits of working from home are clear, work/life balance remains elusive. The PGi survey found 41% of employed Americans working from home due to COVID-19 said working from home has had a very or somewhat positive impact on work/life balance, while 34% said it's had a very or somewhat negative impact. However, the survey found broader implications and benefits that come with working from home. Among employed Americans working from home due to COVID-19: More than two in five (44%) say it has had a positive impact on their personal development 59% say it has had a positive impact on their time spent with family About Premiere Global Services, Inc. | PGiPGi provides business communications that unleash productivity at work.

I am optimistic that we are on the cusp of an exciting period for the luxury hospitality industry, as we continue to create inspiring and exceptional design experiences for our guests, residents and employees.\" Evolution of the Guest ExperienceFour Seasons has a long history of anticipating the evolving needs of guests, and in the process, continually raising the standard of luxury hospitality at every touchpoint. In 2015, the same year that Four Seasons unveiled the industry's first fully branded Private Jet, it introduced the Four Seasons App, placing the ability to customise the guest experience in the palm of one's hand. Two years later, the Chat function was added, connecting guests to Four Seasons employees in real time, and in 100+ languages. Built with best-in-class technology, with continued enhancements to improve user experience, the Four Seasons App and Chat allow guests to customise and control their experience from the moment they start dreaming of a trip to opting for contactless check-in, booking spa appointments, planning activities with the help of the concierge team, and so much more. In 2020, Four Seasons received more than six million Chat messages a record annual number despite reduced occupancy caused by the global pandemic. As the company quickly responded to evolving guest expectations, it launched its innovative and enhanced health and safety program in May 2020, Lead With Care. Grounded in the trust the brand has built over six decades, the program focuses on genuine, intuitive service, ensuring a luxury experience with health and safety top of mind. Working with leading medical experts, the program enhances guest comfort and care while also ensuring employees feel safe and confident at work, equipping them with the tools and training they need to feel secure.\"Four Seasons commitment to innovation has never wavered. Our response to the global pandemic is a testament to our ability to introduce new, meaningful innovations, such as Lead With Care,\" says Clerc. \"Our goal has always been to stay one step ahead of the needs of our guests. Today, our approach to innovation is all encompassing, as we look to enhance the Four Seasons experience at every phase of the guest journey from the lighting in a guest room and how that impacts sleep, to creating restaurant and bar offerings that become a destination in their own right, to maintaining a distinctly human touch with the Four App and Chat functionality. Ultimately, each innovation creates a better platform on which our guests can experience the highest levels of care and exceptional service in the moments that matter most.\"Accelerated Residential Development Four Seasons brand expansion has also been achieved through the success of the company's entry into branded residential offerings more than 35 years ago. Today, nearly 90% of upcoming openings and pipeline developments include a residential component, and Four Seasons remains one of the only hospitality companies to also act as the property manager for its residential owners. Four Seasons continues to enhance the residential experience, and most recently introduced a residential digital experience, built on the sameplatform as the award-winning Four Seasons App, for homeowners to opt for contactless services or manage and maintain their home from afar.This year, following the very successful opening of Twenty Grosvenor Square, Four Seasons will unveil three new standalone residential projects, including the first Four Seasons residences in Los Angeles, as well as new residential offerings in San Francisco and Marrakech. Currently, Four Seasons has a five-year pipeline of USD 6 billion in gross sales value comprising 30 projects around the world, with 14 due to commence sales this year alone.Now more than ever, travellers are looking for additional space and privacy, and Four Seasons Private Retreats offer a luxury rental experience with more flexibility and exclusivity. With exceptional homes and villas in more than 20 destinations around the globe, and another 16 locations to be added by 2025, guests can choose multi-bedroom villas, penthouses and chalets to reconnect with extended family, friends and loved ones. Private Retreats also often include fully equipped kitchens, pools and outdoor spaces, and always include access to the services and amenities of the neighbouring Four Seasons hotel or resort. Four Seasons Private Retreats are included in the Extend Your Stay program, where guests are invited to live, work, learn and play at Four Seasons for 30 days or more. And for those spending more time at home than ever before, the brand also makes it easy to capture the feeling of a Four Seasons stay at home with its online retail offering, first introduced in 2019 and growing in scope to include a range of signature linens, bed and bath items, gifts and more including the legendary, fully-customisable Four Seasons Bed. Strategic Portfolio Growth Four Seasons approach to development and growth has been intentional and focused, opening in key destinations, setting the standard for luxury in each new market it enters. No matter the location, Four Seasons success is grounded in its partnerships with hotel owners, who share the brand's vision for creating the pinnacle of luxury with each new hotel, resort or residence. In 2020, Four Seasons signed nine new hotel, resort and residential projects, tying a record for the most new deals in the company's 60 year history. Most recently, Four Seasons announced its expansion in Europe with an exceptional Mediterranean property. In Italy's southern region of Puglia, Four Seasons will be one of few beachfront hotels with direct access to the sea, developing an all-new resort with views from Italy's stunning Adriatic coast. And, following the opening of Four Seasons Hotel and Private Residences Madrid in late 2020, Four Seasons will continue to expand its Spanish portfolio with a resort in Mallorca, as the brand will manage the historic Hotel Formentor, introducing it as a Four Seasons experience in 2023.The strength of Four Seasons portfolio continues to build upon the brand's momentum in 2020, when it opened a number of landmark properties. Recent new openings include an expanded presence in Tokyo and San Francisco, as well as the brand's spectacular return to Thailand's capital in Bangkok. \"With each new property, our goal is to create the best luxury experience in that market by offering a product of exceptional quality combined with unparalleled service. Each new hotel, resort and residence is a unique reflection of its local market while also representing the future of what Four Seasons will deliver for years to come,\" says Clerc. \"This momentum continues in 2021 and beyond as we open new properties globally and continue our drive towards an elevated service experience grounded in trust, care and authenticity.\"Offering a mix of state-of-the-art new builds and historic restoration projects, upcoming Four Seasons openings will provide unique opportunities to explore some of the world's most exciting destinations. In the United States, Four Seasons will enter new markets such as Napa Valley, New Orleans, Fort Lauderdale, Minneapolis and Nashville with new hotels and Private Residences. In Taormina, Italy and Cartagena, Colombia, Four Seasons is bringing new life to historic properties while maintaining their legacy and charm. Adding to a growing resort portfolio, Four Seasons will introduce an all-new secluded oceanfront oasis in Tamarindo, Mxico.Four Seasons also continues to focus on innovative restaurant and bar concepts for travellers and locals alike that build upon the brand's reputation for culinary excellence, including a record number of Michelin-starred restaurants. For example, whether beachfront dining at Taverna 37 at Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel Athens, French cuisine inspired by the Japanese terroir at est at Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Otemachi, or custom curated cocktails at BKK Social Club at Four Seasons Hotel Bangkok at Chao Phraya River, Four Seasons continues to elevate its food and beverage offering through dynamic drink and dining experiences.

Years after donating bone marrow to his mother, Nadia Sheikh, Khan engaged State Representative Dr. Tom Oliverson to create HB 780, legislation that would establish a Texas bone marrow donor recruitment program in partnership with the Texas Department of Public Safety. HB 780 has passed the House and is moving to a vote in the Senate. Be The Match will present Khan with a letter of commendation from Governor Abbott on Tuesday, April 7, to recognize his advocacy to diversify the Nation's registry. \"Many people are unaware of the ability to join the Be The Match Registry with a simple cheek swab and potentially become a lifesaving donor,\" said Rep. Oliverson. \"Yusuf continues to be an example for us all by acting selflessly, first for his mother and now for other patients who need a matching donor. HB 780 will undoubtedly help improve the likelihood of patients battling leukemia and other blood diseases to find matching donors.\" Despite the large number of individuals on the registry, more than 10,000 patients each year will not find a matching donor. This was the situation Khan's mother faced. With no matching donors on the worldwide registries, she received a half-matched or haplo-identical transplant using Khan's bone marrow. She often wonders if her recovery would have been easier if she had a matching donor on the registry. \"It has been three years since my transplant and my recovery has been slow. I have been hospitalized over the years more times than I can remember, and my battle is not over, but I am safe at home with my loved ones and enjoying life,\" Sheikh said. \"I am grateful that I was fortunate enough to have a son who was at least a 50 percent matching donor. I wonder what would have happened if I didn't have a child. There are so many patients in that situation. I am proud of my son for being my donor and also for wanting to add more diversity to the national bone marrow registry and help more patients find their match.\"Currently, Texans represent the second highest number of registry members with more than 800,000 potential donors. Texas also leads the nation for the number of Black and Hispanic donors who have selflessly donated marrow or blood stem cells. This is important because ethnicity and geographic ancestry matter in matching tissue types for a successful transplant and there is a disparity affecting people of color searching for a match. Less than 1 in 3 Black patients will find a matching donor and less than half Asian or Hispanic patients will find a matching donor, whereas 3 out of 4 White patients will find a match. Addressing this disparity is another goal of HB 780. \"We are dedicated to delivering cures to all patients regardless of racial or ethnic background,\" said Jon Hudson, NMDP/Be The Match Regional Director of Engagement and Enrollment. \"Yusuf's passion around helping more Texans learn about the chance to save a life by joining the Nation's registry through HB 780 will save lives.\" Since its inception in the mid-1980s, NMDP/Be The Match has been entrusted by Congress to operate the Nation's registry and has facilitated more than 105,000 transplants, giving patients with otherwise fatal blood cancers or blood disorders a second chance at life. This includes 3,936 patients from Texas.Potential donors between the ages of 18-44 can join the Be The Match Registry by texting TXSaves to 61474. A cheek swab kit will be mailed to the registrant's home to complete the registration process and find out if they are a match for a searching patient. Be The Match will be set up at the Capitol on April 27 to inform legislators about the national marrow donor program and how individuals can volunteer, support or advocate for the Be The Match Registry and the patients it serves. About Be The MatchFor people with life-threatening blood cancerslike leukemia and lymphomaor other diseases, a cure exists. Be The Match connects patients with their donor match for a life-saving marrow or umbilical cord blood transplant. People can contribute to the cure as a member of the Be The Match Registry, financial contributor or volunteer. Be The Match provides patients and their families one-on-one support, education, and guidancebefore, during and after transplant.Be The Match is operated by the National Marrow Donor Program(NMDP), a nonprofit organization that matches patients with donors, educates health care professionals and conducts research through its research program, CIBMTR(Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research), so more lives can be saved.

The round was led by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) with participation from Placeholder VC, Galaxy Digital, Variant Fund, and Coinbase Ventures. Other notable investors include Polychain Capital, Slow Ventures, Dekrypt Capital, Scalar Capital, a_capital, zkValidator, Balaji Srinivasan and Ethereal Ventures, a new venture fund established by Joseph Lubin. Aleo is the first platform for fully private applications. Aleo uses blockchain and zero-knowledge cryptography to deliver a new web experience as it should be: one that is both personal and private. With Aleo, developers can write private applications even if they are not experts in blockchain or cryptography. At its core, Aleo uses zero-knowledge proof (ZKPs), a cryptographic technique that proves a statement or fact without revealing what makes it true. Originally conceived of in the 1980s, ZK cryptography has become practical in the last decade, and is now being adopted by blockchain developers to achieve scalability, privacy, and interoperability for executing transactions off-chain in a manner that can be verified. While use cases for ZK are growing exponentially in popularity, until now they have mostly been applied to solving niche problems in blockchain. Aleo seeks to unlock the full potential of ZK as a breakthrough technology for the web. Aleo offers a full-stack solution for zero-knowledge, making ZK programmable at every level of the application stack for real-world use to enable decentralized private computing at scale. Aleos platform provides end-to-end tools that enable the development, deployment, and sustainability of privacy-preserving applications. With Aleo, applications and user interactions are private-by-default. With this as the foundation, developers can reimagine web applications that are both fully private and totally personal. User privacy is a fundamental part of any Aleo application, eliminating concerns of trust and empowering users. Aleos unique architecture makes it more scalable than a traditional blockchain. \"We are thrilled to support the stellar team behind Aleo as they bring private programmable applications to the wider market. Privacy-preserving applications allow users to navigate digital interactions without bias, which, coupled with blockchain technology, will create new opportunities for value creation, says Katie Haun, General Partner at a16z, adding, Aleo's tech has solved critical issues in scaling applications built with zero-knowledge technology, enabling any developer or organization to build and scale a truly private application.\" Aleo was originally conceived in 2016 as research into programmable zero-knowledge. The company was officially established in 2019 by Howard Wu, Michael Beller, Collin Chin, and Raymond Chu. The team is composed of world-class cryptographers, engineers, designers, and operators that come from companies like Google, Amazon, and Facebook, and research universities such as UC Berkeley, Johns Hopkins, NYU, and Cornell. Aleos breakthrough approach to privacy technology has garnered widespread support from academic researchers, blockchain developers, web developers, and open-source communities. \"Aleo will reshape the role decentralized systems play in our society and introduce new paradigms for how we live our digital lives. Privacy will no longer be merely a feature but will become a core function. In order to build that future, Aleo is harnessing two cutting edge technologies blockchains and zero-knowledge proofs and leveraging the innovations of each to deliver a full-stack solution that allows anyone to build a web application that is private-by-default. We are thrilled to have the support of visionary investors who recognize the role privacy will play for this next decade,\" said Aleo co-founder Howard Wu. This funding is accompanied by the launch of Aleos Developer Preview II, a suite of new tools for developers to build on Aleo ahead of the public network launch. In addition, Aleo is inviting the community to participate in its universal setup ceremony for the Aleo network this spring. Aleo is focused on building tools that enable developers to create new use cases for private applications, such as in gaming and consumer finance. About Aleo Aleo is the first platform to offer fully private applications. Aleo leverages decentralized systems and zero-knowledge cryptography to offer users unbounded compute with absolute privacy. By architecting a blockchain that is private-by-default, open-source, and built for the web, Aleo is uniquely positioned to address the shortcomings of blockchain adoption. With Aleo, users have access to a world of truly personalized web services without giving up control of their private data. For more information, visit Aleo.org.",

Nationally, the decrease in revenue for large hospitals was 16 percent. These are among the findings of FAIR Health's second COVID-19 study, Illuminating the Impact of COVID-19 on Hospitals and Health Systems: A Comparative Study of Revenue and Utilization. Illuminating the Impact of COVID-19 on Hospitals and Health Systems: A Comparative Study of Revenue and Utilization, A FAIR Health Brief, May 12, 2020 The third week of March 2020 was the week when thousands of new COVID-19 cases became commonplace in certain parts of the United States, particularly in the Northeast. Hospitals and health systems underwent financial strain as many elective procedures were deferred. FAIR Health's new brief illuminates the financial impact on hospitals by comparing revenues based on estimated in-network amounts on private insurance claims submitted by facilities in the first quarter (January to March) of 2020 with the first quarter of 2019 (adjusted by Consumer Price Index). The first quarter is analyzed month by month, and March is analyzed week by week. Also studied are discharge volume, settings, and diagnoses and procedures. The study was based on claims data received by April 30, 2020, which meant some claims for services during the period examined were incurred but not reported (IBNR)valid claims for covered services that had been performed but not yet reported to the insurer. For that reason, the 2019 claims used for the study were limited to those received by April 30, 2019, to produce an \"apples to apples\" comparison. Notwithstanding the IBNR issue, FAIR Health found that the impact of COVID-19 on hospitals was already substantial and of such public health relevance that it deemed it worthwhile to issue this report. FAIR Health will continue to monitor the data volume in the coming weeks. Findings include: In general, there was an association between larger hospital size and greater impact from COVID-19. Nationally, in large facilities (over 250 beds), average per-facility revenues based on estimated in-network amounts declined from $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2019 to $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2020. The gap was less pronounced in midsize facilities (101 to 250 beds) and not evident in small facilities (100 beds or fewer). March was the month when COVID-19 had its greatest impact in the first quarter of 2020. Nationally, in that month, in midsize facilities, the decrease in average per-facility revenues based on estimated in-network amounts in 2020 from 2019 was four percent; in large facilities, five percent. Facilities in the Northeast experienced a greater impact from COVID-19 than those in the nation as a whole. For example, in the Northeast, the decline in average per-facility revenues based on estimated in-network amounts in March 2020 from March 2019 was five percent for midsize facilities, nine percent for large ones. Both nationally and in the Northeast, the decrease in facility discharge volume (i.e., patient discharges) from March 2019 to March 2020 was greater on a percentage basis than the decrease in revenues based on estimated in-network amounts. For example, in large facilities nationally, the drop in volume was 32 percent; in the Northeast, 40 percent. Nationally, the decrease in facility discharge volume in the third week of March 2020 from the corresponding week in 2019 grew significantly compared to the first two weeks; it also appears greater than the decrease in the fourth week. But in the Northeast, in midsize facilities, the fourth week of March had a greater drop (34 percent) than the third week (30 percent). From March 2019 to March 2020, the outpatient share of the distribution of estimated in-network amounts by settings decreased relative to the inpatient share. The effect was more pronounced in the Northeast than nationally. The third and fourth weeks of March 2020, compared to the corresponding period in 2019, saw several changes in the most common diagnostic categories in the inpatient and ER settings. Nationally and in the Northeast, in the inpatient setting, diseases and disorders of the respiratory system rose in share of distribution by volume and estimated in-network dollars, while in the ER setting, acute respiratory diseases and infections rose. FAIR Health President Robin Gelburd stated: \"With this second study, we again use our data repository to shed light on the impact of COVID-19. As the pandemic continues to test the entire healthcare system, FAIR Health seeks to provide data and analysis to support all the system's participants.\"For the new FAIR Health brief on COVID-19, Illuminating the Impact of COVID-19 on Hospitals and Health Systems: A Comparative Study of Revenue and Utilization,click here.For the first FAIR Health brief on COVID-19, COVID-19: The Projected Economic Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the US Healthcare System, click here.Follow us on Twitter @FAIRHealthAbout FAIR HealthFAIR Health, a national, independent nonprofit organization that qualifies as a public charity under section 501(c)(3) of the tax code, is dedicated to bringing transparency to healthcare costs and health insurance information through data products, consumer resources and health systems research support.

Accelerating growth in the adoption of 3D printing for manufacturing of metal parts, especially for the aviation and healthcare industries, is the crucial factor driving the market. Metal is a primary focus area in additive manufacturing (AM).Investments in metal AM have increased at a rapid pace in recent years. AM process offers exceptionally high-performance parts made from aluminum, steel, nickel, titanium, and others for demanding, high-value industries, such as medical and aerospace. These industries have observed faster penetration of AM on account of its ability to manufacture complex parts, decreased part weight, and material needs. The 3D printing metal industry is witnessing growing demand from the aerospace and defense sectors owing to the rising capabilities to reduce aerospace part weight and focus toward improving overall efficiency, which otherwise proves costly and time consuming through traditional manufacturing process. The ability to print cheaper equipment in less time on demand is expected to be the key factor driving the industry. North America accounted for the largest share in the utilization of additive manufacturing metals for the aerospace and defense industry. Recently mandated policies of U.S. to increase the defense investment by significant levels are expected to bolster the regional market growth. Involvement of private players in space exploration projects is further expected to augment the market growth across the region. The potential cost savings are stimulating the growth of the market in aerospace and defense. For instance, in November 2018, Lockheed Martin, U.S.-based global aerospace and defense company, announced that due to 3D printed parts, there was reduction in the price of its F-35 Full Mission Simulator (FMS) unit and has led to the savings of nearly USD 45.0 million. 3D Printing Metal Market Report Highlights Aerospace and defense is expected to emerge as the fastest growing application segment from 2020 to 2027 owing to increasing demand for highly customizable parts and reduced lead time offered by additive manufacturing Titanium dominated the market with 65.3% share of the global revenuein 2019 due to its large scale adoption in the aerospace and healthcare industries Asia Pacific is predicted to expand at the fastest CAGR of 31.6%, in terms of volume, from 2020 to 2027 as the region is largely untapped and is therefore predicted to witness substantial investments in metal 3D printing over the coming years In 2018, Norsk Titanium used a new technology called rapid plasma deposition (RPD), which is considered a superior technology to produce mechanically enhanced structural metal components.

The Diverse Organization of Firms' (DOF) goal is to increase public awareness of the existence of Black-owned CPA and financial services firms that provide a myriad of accounting, auditing, tax, consulting and financial services to corporations, small businesses, government agencies and individuals, as well as employment opportunities to thousands across the country. \"For businesses, government agencies and individuals wanting to work with Black-owned accounting and financial services firms, it is essential to be able to identify them in various regions of the United States,\" said Odysseus Lanier, CPA, DOF chairman. \"Our new website (http://www.dofinc.org) makes it easy to locate our firms not only by city and state, but also by service and practice area, professional and firm certification, and North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes.\" \"Our website also makes it easy for members to collaborate to pursue and secure business opportunities, including mentoring emerging firms who lack the experience to win significant contracts,\" said Lanier, who is consulting/management advisory partner with McConnell & Jones, LLP, in Houston, Texas, the second-largest Black-owned accounting firm in the United States. DOF, formerly the Division of Firms, has a mission to empower, educate and advocate for the accounting profession to ensure innovation, mentorship, relevancy and continued value. A key organization accomplishment, working with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, was work to increase the U.S. Small Business Administration's small business revenue size standards in the accounting sector. \"This increased business opportunities for Black-owned accounting firms by allowing them to compete for federal contracts as 'small businesses' rather than in full and open competition with accounting firms designated by the SBA as large businesses,\" Lanier said. DOF NAME CHANGE - Page 2 \"Doing business with Black-owned accounting and financial services firms provides America's corporations facing changing demographics the opportunity to gain a competitive advantage,\" said Lanier added. Acknowledging a dearth of opportunities afforded to Black-owned firms particularly in the service sectors Lanier said, \"It is important to include our firms in strategic procurement initiatives to maintain a competitive advantage in the marketplace.\" About the Diverse Organization of Firms The Diverse Organization of Firms was established in 1986 as the Division of Firms of the National Association of Black Accountants. In 2015, DOF became an independent 501 (c)(3) organization and in July 2020, changed its name. DOF's mission is to empower, educate and advocate for the accounting profession to ensure innovation, mentorship, relevancy and continued value. ***EDITOR'S NOTE: The DOF Virtual Press Conference will be held at Noon, Nov. 12, 2020.
