Securities Litigation Partner James (Josh) Wilson Encourages Investors Who Suffered Losses Exceeding $50,000 In Bioventus To Contact Him Directly To Discuss Their Options
NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against Bioventus Inc. ("Bioventus" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: BVS).
If you suffered losses exceeding $50,000 investing in Bioventus stock or options and would like to discuss your legal rights, call Faruqi & Faruqi partner Josh Wilson directly at 877-247-4292 or 212-983-9330 (Ext. 1310). You may also click here for additional information: www.faruqilaw.com/BVS.
There is no cost or obligation to you.
Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading minority and Woman-owned national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia.
In February 2021, Bioventus conducted its initial public offering ("IPO"), selling 8 million shares of Class A common stock at $13 per share.
Then, on November 16, 2022, Bioventus issued a press release announcing that it could not timely file its quarterly report for the period ended October 1, 2022. Bioventus was "seeking resolution related to the validity of a revised invoice" regarding "rebate claims [that it received] from a large private payer in relation to our Pain Treatments vertical, which likely will adversely affect the Company's previously announced third quarter 2022 financial results." Moreover, the Company had determined preliminarily that it was required to record a non-cash impairment charge in the range of $185 million to $205 million. As a result, Bioventus disclosed that "its internal controls related to the timely recognition of quarterly rebates were inadequate."
On this news, Bioventus's stock price fell $1.00 per share, or 33.67%, to close at $1.97 per share on November 17, 2022, representing a total decline of 84.85% from the IPO price.

At 3.5 Years, 83% of Patients on BLINCYTO Plus Chemotherapy Were Alive Versus 65% of Patients on Chemotherapy Alone
Trial Design and Conduct Sponsored by the ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif., Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Amgen (NASDAQ: AMGN) today announced the ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group (ECOG-ACRIN) will present results from the E1910 randomized Phase 3 trial. This is the first study to demonstrate superior overall survival (OS) with BLINCYTO added to consolidation chemotherapy over current standard of care (multiagent consolidation chemotherapy) in newly diagnosed adult patients with Philadelphia chromosome-negative B-ALL who were measurable residual disease (MRD)-negative following induction and intensification chemotherapy. These results were featured in a press briefing on Monday, Dec. 12 at 8:30 a.m. CT and presented on Tuesday, Dec. 13 at 9 a.m. CT as a late breaking oral presentation (LBA1) at the 64th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting & Exposition in New Orleans.

"Treatment with BLINCYTO in addition to consolidation chemotherapy reduced the risk of death by 58% compared to chemotherapy alone. We are pleased by this remarkable improvement in overall survival, and we look forward to sharing these data with regulatory authorities as soon as possible," said David M. Reese, M.D., executive vice president of Research and Development at Amgen. "Amgen continues to advance a robust development program for BLINCYTO, with a focus on minimizing chemotherapy and a subcutaneous formulation to help address remaining unmet needs for patients with B-ALL."
The Phase 3 randomized trial (E1910), activated in December 2013, evaluated the safety and efficacy of BLINCYTO added to standard of care consolidation chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy alone in patients with newly diagnosed B-ALL with no MRD after induction and intensification chemotherapy. The primary endpoint was OS and key secondary endpoints included relapse-free survival, MRD status, and incidence of adverse events. Based on a recommendation by the ECOG-ACRIN Data Safety Monitoring Committee and consistent with the pre-defined efficacy threshold, results from the planned interim analysis are now reported due to overwhelming efficacy reported in the BLINCYTO arm.
With a median follow up of 43 months, the study met its primary endpoint with a significant improvement in overall survival favoring the BLINCYTO arm; median OS was not reached vs. 71.4 months in the control arm (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.42, 95% CI: 0.24 - 0.75; two-sided p=0.003). After about 3.5 years of follow-up, 83% of the patients who went on to receive additional standard consolidation chemotherapy plus experimental BLINCYTO were alive versus 65% of those who received chemotherapy only. No new safety signals were reported for the combination.
"Adults with newly diagnosed ALL can achieve a high rate of complete remission with chemotherapy, but frequently relapse and have disappointing survival rates.1,2 Historically, outcomes for newly diagnosed adults with ALL have been significantly worse than for children, where up to 90% of patients are cured with frontline therapy.3,4 In this study, survival rates for adults when blinatumomab was added to chemotherapy are significantly improved in patients with MRD-negative remission, approaching those we have seen in children," said Selina M. Luger, M.D., professor of hematology-oncology at the University of Pennsylvania's Abramson Cancer Center and Perelman School of Medicine, chair of the ECOG-ACRIN Leukemia Committee and an investigator on the study. "Moreover, the data provide additional clinical evidence supporting the recent guideline updates for adult ALL recommending blinatumomab as consolidation in both MRD-positive and MRD-negative patients."
Data from the trial will be submitted to global regulatory authorities, including where BLINCYTO has been previously approved.
Study E1910 was designed and conducted independently from industry with public funding. The ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group sponsored the trial with funding from the National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the National Institutes of Health. Other NCI-funded network groups took part in the study. In addition, Amgen provided BLINCYTO and support through an NCI Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA).
E1910 Study Design
In the E1910 Phase 3 randomized trial, 488 patients aged 30-70 with newly diagnosed B-ALL were enrolled. All participants initially received 2.5 months of combination induction chemotherapy (step 1). After remission induction (step 1), if patients were in complete remission, they continued on-study and received an intensification course of high dose chemotherapy (step 2). Subsequently, their remission and MRD status were determined. All patients were then randomized/assigned to receive four cycles of consolidation chemotherapy with or without four 28-day cycles of BLINCYTO (step 3). Following FDA approval of blinatumomab for MRD-positive patients in March 2018, MRD-positive participants were assigned to the blinatumomab arm. MRD-negative patients continued to be randomized. After completion of consolidation chemo +/- BLINCYTO, patients were given 2.5 years of chemotherapy maintenance therapy timed from the start of the intensification cycle (step 4).

About BLINCYTO® (blinatumomab)
BLINCYTO is a BiTE® (bispecific T-cell engager) immuno-oncology therapy that targets CD19 surface antigens on B cells. BiTE molecules fight cancer by helping the body's immune system detect and target malignant cells by engaging T cells (a type of white blood cell capable of killing other cells perceived as threats) to cancer cells. By bringing T cells near cancer cells, the T cells can inject toxins and trigger cancer cell death (apoptosis). BiTE immuno-oncology therapies are currently being investigated for their potential to treat a wide variety of cancers.
BLINCYTO was granted breakthrough therapy and priority review designations by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and is approved in the U.S. for the treatment of:
- relapsed or refractory CD-19 positive B-cell precursor ALL in adults and children.
- CD-19 positive B-cell precursor ALL in first or second complete remission with minimal residual disease (MRD) greater than or equal to 0.1% in adults and children. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on MRD response rate and hematological relapse-free survival. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in the confirmatory trials.
In the European Union (EU), BLINCYTO is indicated as monotherapy for the treatment of:
- adults with Philadelphia chromosome negative CD19 positive relapsed or refractory B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
- adults with Philadelphia chromosome negative CD19 positive B-precursor ALL in first or second complete remission with minimal residual disease (MRD) greater than or equal to 0.1%.
- pediatric patients aged 1 year or older with Philadelphia chromosome negative CD19 positive B-precursor ALL which is refractory or in relapse after receiving at least two prior therapies or in relapse after receiving prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING: CYTOKINE RELEASE SYNDROME and NEUROLOGICAL TOXICITIES
- Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS), which may be life-threatening or fatal, occurred in patients receiving BLINCYTO®. Interrupt or discontinue BLINCYTO® and treat with corticosteroids as recommended.
- Neurological toxicities, which may be severe, life-threatening or fatal, occurred in patients receiving BLINCYTO®. Interrupt or discontinue BLINCYTO® as recommended.
Contraindications
BLINCYTO® is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to blinatumomab or to any component of the product formulation.
Warnings and Precautions
- Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS): CRS, which may be life-threatening or fatal, occurred in 15% of patients with R/R ALL and in 7% of patients with MRD-positive ALL. The median time to onset of CRS is 2 days after the start of infusion and the median time to resolution of CRS was 5 days among cases that resolved. Closely monitor and advise patients to contact their healthcare professional for signs and symptoms of serious adverse events such as fever, headache, nausea, asthenia, hypotension, increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT), increased aspartate aminotransferase (AST), increased total bilirubin (TBILI), and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). The manifestations of CRS after treatment with BLINCYTO® overlap with those of infusion reactions, capillary leak syndrome, and hemophagocytic histiocytosis/macrophage activation syndrome. If severe CRS occurs, interrupt BLINCYTO® until CRS resolves. Discontinue BLINCYTO® permanently if life-threatening CRS occurs. Administer corticosteroids for severe or life-threatening CRS.
- Neurological Toxicities: Approximately 65% of patients receiving BLINCYTO® in clinical trials experienced neurological toxicities. The median time to the first event was within the first 2 weeks of BLINCYTO® treatment and the majority of events resolved. The most common (≥ 10%) manifestations of neurological toxicity were headache and tremor. Severe, life–threatening, or fatal neurological toxicities occurred in approximately 13% of patients, including encephalopathy, convulsions, speech disorders, disturbances in consciousness, confusion and disorientation, and coordination and balance disorders. Manifestations of neurological toxicity included cranial nerve disorders. Monitor patients for signs or symptoms and interrupt or discontinue BLINCYTO® as outlined in the PI.
- Infections: Approximately 25% of patients receiving BLINCYTO® in clinical trials experienced serious infections such as sepsis, pneumonia, bacteremia, opportunistic infections, and catheter-site infections, some of which were life-threatening or fatal. Administer prophylactic antibiotics and employ surveillance testing as appropriate during treatment. Monitor patients for signs or symptoms of infection and treat appropriately, including interruption or discontinuation of BLINCYTO® as needed.
- Tumor Lysis Syndrome (TLS), which may be life-threatening or fatal, has been observed. Preventive measures, including pretreatment nontoxic cytoreduction and on-treatment hydration, should be used during BLINCYTO® treatment. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of TLS and interrupt or discontinue BLINCYTO® as needed to manage these events.
- Neutropenia and Febrile Neutropenia, including life-threatening cases, have been observed. Monitor appropriate laboratory parameters (including, but not limited to, white blood cell count and absolute neutrophil count) during BLINCYTO® infusion and interrupt BLINCYTO® if prolonged neutropenia occurs.
- Effects on Ability to Drive and Use Machines: Due to the possibility of neurological events, including seizures, patients receiving BLINCYTO® are at risk for loss of consciousness, and should be advised against driving and engaging in hazardous occupations or activities such as operating heavy or potentially dangerous machinery while BLINCYTO® is being administered.
- Elevated Liver Enzymes: Transient elevations in liver enzymes have been associated with BLINCYTO® treatment with a median time to onset of 3 days. In patients receiving BLINCYTO®, although the majority of these events were observed in the setting of CRS, some cases of elevated liver enzymes were observed outside the setting of CRS, with a median time to onset of 19 days. Grade 3 or greater elevations in liver enzymes occurred in approximately 7% of patients outside the setting of CRS and resulted in treatment discontinuation in less than 1% of patients. Monitor ALT, AST, gamma-glutamyl transferase, and TBILI prior to the start of and during BLINCYTO® treatment. BLINCYTO® treatment should be interrupted if transaminases rise to > 5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) or if TBILI rises to > 3 times ULN.
- Pancreatitis: Fatal pancreatitis has been reported in patients receiving BLINCYTO® in combination with dexamethasone in clinical trials and the post-marketing setting. Evaluate patients who develop signs and symptoms of pancreatitis and interrupt or discontinue BLINCYTO® and dexamethasone as needed.
- Leukoencephalopathy: Although the clinical significance is unknown, cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) changes showing leukoencephalopathy have been observed in patients receiving BLINCYTO®, especially in patients previously treated with cranial irradiation and antileukemic chemotherapy.
- Preparation and administration errors have occurred with BLINCYTO® treatment. Follow instructions for preparation (including admixing) and administration in the PI strictly to minimize medication errors (including underdose and overdose).
- Immunization: Vaccination with live virus vaccines is not recommended for at least 2 weeks prior to the start of BLINCYTO® treatment, during treatment, and until immune recovery following last cycle of BLINCYTO®.
- Risk of Serious Adverse Reactions in Pediatric Patients due to Benzyl Alcohol Preservative: Serious and fatal adverse reactions including "gasping syndrome," which is characterized by central nervous system depression, metabolic acidosis, and gasping respirations, can occur in neonates and infants treated with benzyl alcohol-preserved drugs including BLINCYTO® (with preservative). When prescribing BLINCYTO® (with preservative) for pediatric patients, consider the combined daily metabolic load of benzyl alcohol from all sources including BLINCYTO® (with preservative) and other drugs containing benzyl alcohol. The minimum amount of benzyl alcohol at which serious adverse reactions may occur is not known. Due to the addition of bacteriostatic saline, 7-day bags of BLINCYTO® solution for infusion with preservative contain benzyl alcohol and are not recommended for use in any patients weighing < 22 kg.
Adverse Reactions
- The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) in clinical trial experience of patients with MRD-positive B-cell precursor ALL (BLAST Study) treated with BLINCYTO® were pyrexia (91%), infusion-related reactions (77%), headache (39%), infections (pathogen unspecified 39%), tremor (31%), and chills (28%). Serious adverse reactions were reported in 61% of patients. The most common serious adverse reactions (≥ 2%) included pyrexia, tremor, encephalopathy, aphasia, lymphopenia, neutropenia, overdose, device related infection, seizure, and staphylococcal infection.
- The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) in clinical trial experience of patients with Philadelphia chromosome-negative relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor ALL (TOWER Study) treated with BLINCYTO® were infections (bacterial and pathogen unspecified), pyrexia, headache, infusion-related reactions, anemia, febrile neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and neutropenia. Serious adverse reactions were reported in 62% of patients. The most common serious adverse reactions (≥ 2%) included febrile neutropenia, pyrexia, sepsis, pneumonia, overdose, septic shock, CRS, bacterial sepsis, device related infection, and bacteremia.
- Adverse reactions that were observed more frequently (≥ 10%) in the pediatric population compared to the adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor ALL were pyrexia (80% vs. 61%), hypertension (26% vs. 8%), anemia (41% vs. 24%), infusion-related reaction (49% vs. 34%), thrombocytopenia (34% vs. 21%), leukopenia (24% vs. 11%), and weight increased (17% vs. 6%).
- In pediatric patients less than 2 years old (infants), the incidence of neurologic toxicities was not significantly different than for the other age groups, but its manifestations were different; the only event terms reported were agitation, headache, insomnia, somnolence, and irritability. Infants also had an increased incidence of hypokalemia (50%) compared to other pediatric age cohorts (15-20%) or adults (17%).
Dosage and Administration Guidelines
- BLINCYTO® is administered as a continuous intravenous infusion at a constant flow rate using an infusion pump which should be programmable, lockable, non-elastomeric, and have an alarm.
- It is very important that the instructions for preparation (including admixing) and administration provided in the full Prescribing Information are strictly followed to minimize medication errors (including underdose and overdose).

Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains forward-looking statements that are based on the current expectations and beliefs of Amgen. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including any statements on the outcome, benefits and synergies of collaborations, or potential collaborations, with any other company (including BeiGene, Ltd., Kyowa-Kirin Co., Ltd., or any collaboration to manufacture therapeutic antibodies against COVID-19), the performance of Otezla® (apremilast) (including anticipated Otezla sales growth and the timing of non-GAAP EPS accretion), the Five Prime Therapeutics, Inc. acquisition, the Teneobio, Inc. acquisition, the ChemoCentryx, Inc. acquisition, or the proposed acquisition of Horizon Therapeutics plc, as well as estimates of revenues, operating margins, capital expenditures, cash, other financial metrics, expected legal, arbitration, political, regulatory or clinical results or practices, customer and prescriber patterns or practices, reimbursement activities and outcomes, effects of pandemics or other widespread health problems such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic on our business, and other such estimates and results. Forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, including those discussed below and more fully described in the Securities and Exchange Commission reports filed by Amgen, including our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and any subsequent periodic reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. Unless otherwise noted, Amgen is providing this information as of the date of this news release and does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this document as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed and actual results may differ materially from those we project. Discovery or identification of new product candidates or development of new indications for existing products cannot be guaranteed and movement from concept to product is uncertain; consequently, there can be no guarantee that any particular product candidate or development of a new indication for an existing product will be successful and become a commercial product. Further, preclinical results do not guarantee safe and effective performance of product candidates in humans. The complexity of the human body cannot be perfectly, or sometimes, even adequately modeled by computer or cell culture systems or animal models. The length of time that it takes for us to complete clinical trials and obtain regulatory approval for product marketing has in the past varied and we expect similar variability in the future. Even when clinical trials are successful, regulatory authorities may question the sufficiency for approval of the trial endpoints we have selected. We develop product candidates internally and through licensing collaborations, partnerships and joint ventures. Product candidates that are derived from relationships may be subject to disputes between the parties or may prove to be not as effective or as safe as we may have believed at the time of entering into such relationship. Also, we or others could identify safety, side effects or manufacturing problems with our products, including our devices, after they are on the market.
Our results may be affected by our ability to successfully market both new and existing products domestically and internationally, clinical and regulatory developments involving current and future products, sales growth of recently launched products, competition from other products including biosimilars, difficulties or delays in manufacturing our products and global economic conditions. In addition, sales of our products are affected by pricing pressure, political and public scrutiny and reimbursement policies imposed by third-party payers, including governments, private insurance plans and managed care providers and may be affected by regulatory, clinical and guideline developments and domestic and international trends toward managed care and healthcare cost containment. Furthermore, our research, testing, pricing, marketing and other operations are subject to extensive regulation by domestic and foreign government regulatory authorities. Our business may be impacted by government investigations, litigation and product liability claims. In addition, our business may be impacted by the adoption of new tax legislation or exposure to additional tax liabilities. If we fail to meet the compliance obligations in the corporate integrity agreement between us and the U.S. government, we could become subject to significant sanctions. Further, while we routinely obtain patents for our products and technology, the protection offered by our patents and patent applications may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by our competitors, or we may fail to prevail in present and future intellectual property litigation. We perform a substantial amount of our commercial manufacturing activities at a few key facilities, including in Puerto Rico, and also depend on third parties for a portion of our manufacturing activities, and limits on supply may constrain sales of certain of our current products and product candidate development. An outbreak of disease or similar public health threat, such as COVID-19, and the public and governmental effort to mitigate against the spread of such disease, could have a significant adverse effect on the supply of materials for our manufacturing activities, the distribution of our products, the commercialization of our product candidates, and our clinical trial operations, and any such events may have a material adverse effect on our product development, product sales, business and results of operations. We rely on collaborations with third parties for the development of some of our product candidates and for the commercialization and sales of some of our commercial products. In addition, we compete with other companies with respect to many of our marketed products as well as for the discovery and development of new products. Further, some raw materials, medical devices and component parts for our products are supplied by sole third-party suppliers. Certain of our distributors, customers and payers have substantial purchasing leverage in their dealings with us. The discovery of significant problems with a product similar to one of our products that implicate an entire class of products could have a material adverse effect on sales of the affected products and on our business and results of operations. Our efforts to collaborate with or acquire other companies, products or technology, and to integrate the operations of companies or to support the products or technology we have acquired, may not be successful. A breakdown, cyberattack or information security breach could compromise the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our systems and our data. Our stock price is volatile and may be affected by a number of events. Our business and operations may be negatively affected by the failure, or perceived failure, of achieving our environmental, social and governance objectives. The effects of global climate change and related natural disasters could negatively affect our business and operations. Global economic conditions may magnify certain risks that affect our business. Our business performance could affect or limit the ability of our Board of Directors to declare a dividend or our ability to pay a dividend or repurchase our common stock. We may not be able to access the capital and credit markets on terms that are favorable to us, or at all.
The scientific information discussed in this news release related to our product candidates is preliminary and investigative. Such product candidates are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and no conclusions can or should be drawn regarding the safety or effectiveness of the product candidates. Further, any scientific information discussed in this news release relating to new indications for our products is preliminary and investigative and is not part of the labeling approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the products. The products are not approved for the investigational use(s) discussed in this news release, and no conclusions can or should be drawn regarding the safety or effectiveness of the products for these uses.

NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A majority of CEOs say their companies are not fully prepared for a cybersecurity threat, and an increasing number say their companies are unable to absorb increasing costs stemming from inflation. These are some of the key findings in the latest CEO survey from Marcum LLP and Hofstra University's Frank G. Zarb School of Business.
Marcum-Hofstra CEO Survey No. 5 was conducted in November. Data compare to the previous survey in September.
Cybersecurity
Less than one-third of CEOs (31.8%) said their company is well-prepared for any cybersecurity threat they might face in the foreseeable future, while 58.1% said they are adequately prepared but could be doing more. Ten percent say they are behind in efforts to protect their companies from breaches.
CEOs revealed some of the best practices their companies are employing to minimize threats. Among their answers:
- "We perform a risk assessment before introducing new processes or activities, or changes to existing processes or activities, or when the company identifies a new hazard."
- "We are creating data backups and encrypting sensitive information, updating all security systems and software, conducting regular employee cybersecurity training, and requiring all employees to use strong and complex passwords."
- "Constant communication and training among the employees and doing outreach calls to test how they handle certain frauds and phishing emails that they have to detect and send up to our operations team."
- "We constantly update our security software and create alternative systems in case we are hacked."
- "We are providing second level security in all areas where before we didn't."
- "We network with peers and hire several consulting firms to help identify and mitigate all risks."
- "Two-level authentication sign-in, blocking more browsing on employees' computers, nightly sweeps of all computers."
Inflation, Recession & Staffing
Although slightly fewer CEOs reported their companies are being impacted by inflation (72.1% vs. 73.2%), there are more business leaders passing on increasing costs to their customers – 36.8% compared to 33.4% in the September Marcum-Hofstra survey).
A large majority of CEOs (89.9%) continue to say they are at least somewhat concerned about a recession in the coming year, but this represents an improvement over the 93.6% who expressed this concern in September. Just under half -- 46.5% -- indicated they are very concerned, compared to 54.6% previously.
About half of CEOs (47.7%) have begun to curtail or freeze hiring, or foresee doing so, while 9.3% say they anticipate having to lay off employees in the next year. Just over half (51.2%) are taking a wait-and-see position for now.
Business Outlook
While four out of five CEOs remained positive in their outlook on the business environment, as a whole they were less optimistic. The 10.5% who rated their outlook as very positive ("10" on a scale of 1-10) was virtually unchanged, but the 32.7% rating their outlook "8" or higher was a notable decrease from 39.0% in September. Overall, those on the positive side of the scale ("5" or higher) dropped from 84.0% to 80% in the current survey.
"Our index of CEO optimism has been remarkably steady throughout the five survey periods of 2022, starting out at 6.5 in January and ending at 6.4 in November, with only moderate fluctuations in between. This suggests that CEOs have business planning well in hand and are confident in how they are approaching their markets," said Jeffrey M. Weiner, Marcum's chairman & chief executive officer.
"Notably, we saw the greatest increases in outlook in the services sector, including financial services, healthcare, and food/beverage/hospitality, while CEOs in the construction, manufacturing/distribution, and retail and consumer goods industries were less sanguine. Hopefully they are leveraging their resources not only to drive efficiencies in the current inflationary environment but to invest in technology, staffing, training, and strategic analysis to position themselves for the near- and long-term future."
Janet Lenaghan, dean of the Zarb School of Business, noted that cybersecurity remains a challenge for mid-market CEOs, who recognize the risk but may not be making the necessary investment to fend off threats, particularly in this unpredictable economic climate.
"Major hacking episodes involving government or global companies get a lot of attention, but the risk to mid-market companies is just as serious, perhaps even higher, because they may lack the budget and expertise to protect themselves," Lenaghan said. "Like inflation and the supply chain, increasing cybersecurity threats are another unpredictable economic variable CEOs need to navigate."
Business Planning Influences
Continuing the trendline first established in June 2021, the top three influences on business planning were unchanged. Economic concerns was cited most often, ranked number one in 58.9% of responses, up from 50.6%. In the continuing tight labor market, 45.7% of CEOs cited availability of talent as a key influence, down slightly from 46.1% in September. Reflecting concerns about price inflation, rising material/operational costs was the third most common influence, cited by 41.9% of CEOs, up from 40.5%.
About the Survey
The Marcum-Hofstra CEO Survey is a periodic gauge of mid-market CEOs' outlook and their priorities for the next 12 months. The survey polls the leaders of companies with revenues ranging from $5 million to $1 billion-plus. The latest survey interviewed 269 mid-market CEOs.
It is conducted as part of the Zarb School of Business MBA curriculum, and developed and analyzed by Hofstra MBA students led by Dr. Andrew Forman, associate professor of international business and marketing, in partnership with Marcum.
"The ongoing concerns regarding cybersecurity and the recent inflationary cycle provide students with a valuable lesson in the need for leaders to simultaneously plan for the long term while addressing less foreseen shorter-term issues as they arise," Forman said.

"Efforts to advance equity and social justice in health care will require collaboration across multiple stakeholders in the healthcare ecosystem to address social determinants of health that underlie health equities. We are excited to partner with Aspen Institute Science & Society Program to welcome Dr. Uché Blackstock to our next Signature Series for a discussion on the underlying barriers and solutions to health equity," said Seema Kumar, chief executive officer of Cure.

CLASS ACTION CASE DETAILS: The filed complaint alleges that Torrid Holdings Inc. made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) in the first half of 2021, Torrid had experienced a temporary surge in demand as a result of changed consumer behaviors in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and government stimulus and that such ephemeral demand trends had dissipated and were not internally projected to continue following the initial public offering ("IPO"); (ii) Torrid was suffering from severe supply chain disruptions caused by the emergence of the Delta variant of COVID-19, which had first emerged in May 2021; (iii) Torrid was running materially below historical inventory levels as a result of supply chain disruptions; (iv) as a result, Torrid did not have sufficient inventory to meet expected consumer demand for its fiscal third quarter of 2021; (v) as a result, late inventory arrival had materially impaired the Company from effectively matching consumer buying trends, creating an undisclosed risk of increased markdowns and promotional activities necessary to sell undesirable inventory; (vi) Torrid's Chief Financial Office planned to retire shortly after the IPO; and (vii) as a result of the above, representations made in the Company's registration statement regarding Torrid's historical financial and operational metrics and purported market opportunities did not accurately reflect the actual business, operations, financial results, and trajectory of the Company at the time of the IPO, and were materially false and misleading and lacked a reasonable factual basis.

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- As Duke Energy continues to make significant progress in delivering the affordable, reliable and clean energy its customers and communities count on, the company was recently named to the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) for North America for the 17th consecutive year.
"As we lead the largest clean energy transition in the U.S., our stakeholders care about the impact we are making on topics like diversity and inclusion, climate change and economic development," said Katherine Neebe, Duke Energy's chief sustainability and philanthropy officer. "This recognition helps validate that our strategy delivers business results and societal outcomes."
Duke Energy believes in a responsible pace of change, one that balances the technologies of today with the innovations of tomorrow to drive out carbon emissions while preserving affordability and reliability for its customers and communities:
- The company is leading the industry by addressing 95% of its total Scope 1, 2 and 3 calculated greenhouse gas emissions.
- For Scope 1 emissions, the company is on track to exceed its 2030 goal of reducing carbon emissions from electricity generation by at least 50% and achieve its goals of an 80% reduction by 2040 against a 2005 baseline on its way to achieving net-zero carbon by 2050.
- Earlier this year, the company established a goal of 50% reduction by 2035 and net-zero by 2050 for Scope 2 and certain Scope 3 emissions, against a 2021 baseline for its electric generation and natural gas business unit.
- Nearly 85% of the company's 10-year, $145 billion capital plan is directed toward the clean energy transformation and will fund generation fleet transition and grid modernization.
- The company's overall carbon dioxide output is down 44% since 2005. The company has already retired 56 coal units since 2010, representing roughly 7,500 MW and, pending regulatory approval, committed to retire its entire coal fleet by 2035.
- The company is taking significant steps around customer affordability, including making investments to lower future fuel volatility and costs and leveraging clean energy tax credits.
- Duke Energy established a dedicated agency team of customer advocates to partner with nonprofit and government organizations, which has helped customers access more than $200 million in financial support over the last two years.
- The company published just transition principles focused on four key areas: employees, customers, communities and economic development.
It's critical the company transitions for tomorrow in a way that also benefits society today. That includes committing more than $8.6 million to social justice and racial equity organizations since 2020.
Since 1999, the DJSI has evaluated the sustainability of leading companies worldwide. In selecting the top performers in each business sector, the DJSI reviews companies on several general and industry-specific topics related to economic, environmental and social dimensions.
Included in the topics DJSI assesses are corporate governance, innovation management, environmental policy, climate strategy, human capital development and corporate citizenship. The index is compiled annually by S&P Dow Jones Indices.
Since 2007, Duke Energy has published an annual Sustainability Report. The 2021 ESG Report is available online.

Author is National Expert Susan Fink Childs, FACMPE
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- "The Emotionally Intelligent Physician Leader," a new book published by the American Association for Physician Leadership and written by national expert Susan Fink Childs, FACMPE, provides a guide to mastering the emotional quotient necessary to be successful in today's healthcare environment.
The book is now available for purchase.
Among the key areas Childs details:
- Physicians and managing up
- The six primary emotions
- Inter-departmental logistics
- Delegation and practice efficiency
- Basics of body language
- When we have to say no to a patient
- Patients making independent decisions
- How to deal with difficult patients
- Set the stage to establish boundaries
- Shape patient satisfaction
- Questions for peer discussions
- The provider's role and relationships
- Communicating effectively with staff
"Utilizing emotional intelligence also helps navigate relationships beyond the medical practice," Childs writes. "As a patient, the best support one could ask for is from the physician who partners with them in their healthcare decision-making. This relationship is what creates the bonding, trust, respect, and a familial culture that all humans seek."
"Emotional intelligence, as further delineated within the context of physician leadership in this book, essentially refers to an ability to identify and manage one's own emotions, as well as the emotions of others," writes Peter Angood, MD, FRCS(C), FACS, MCCM, FAAPL(Hon), president and CEO of AAPL in the book's forward. "Being cognizant of and demonstrating the practice of emotional intelligence will further consolidate the respect and reliance on physician leadership to create the needed and often required changes within our industry."
The American Association for Physician Leadership (AAPL) is focused on the personal transformation of all physicians, and through them the organizations they serve. With the goal of improving patient outcomes, workforce wellness, and a refinement of all healthcare delivery, AAPL has remained the only association solely focused on providing professional development, leadership education, and management training exclusively for physicians. Since its founding in 1975, AAPL has educated 250,000+ physicians across 40 countries—including CEOs, chief medical officers, and physicians at all levels of healthcare. www.physicianleaders.org

NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Guiding parents to play and read with their babies increased parental support of their children's cognitive development by the time they turned two—setting the stage for children's improved school readiness by age four.
This is the finding of a new study led by researchers at NYU Grossman School of Medicine; NYU Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development; and the University of Pittsburgh. The work evaluated the effects of a parental education and support program they developed, called Smart Beginnings, for primarily Black and Hispanic children growing up in low-income and under-resourced communities.
Smart Beginnings is an integration of two programs – Video Interaction Project (VIP) and the Family Check-Up (FCU).
Previous studies had shown that children in minoritized, low-income families are more likely to have behavioral problems, such as hyperactivity from prolonged toxic stress (an abnormal stress response that often coincides with lack of caregiver support and reassurance), and to perform more poorly in school, according to the researchers.
For the study, 403 newborns in New York and Pittsburgh were voluntarily enrolled by their mothers, with half randomly assigned to receive Smart Beginnings while the rest received standard pediatric primary care. Most of the mothers were married or had a live-in partner, and all were eligible for Medicaid. Almost all were Black or Hispanic.
As part of the VIP component of Smart Beginnings, mothers were videotaped with their infants for three to five minutes during routine monthly check-ups as they played with a new toy such as cars or black and white patterned blocks. A trained coach encouraged interaction as they played. Mothers took home the videotape and educational pamphlets and were encouraged to repeat the playtime at home. As the children got older, books were also given to the parents to read to the children.
In the FCU component of Smart Beginnings, at the six-month mark, the reading and playtime activities were followed up by a visit with a social worker at home or at the well-child clinic for families that had additional family management issues or child behavior problems. Lasting as long as two hours, these conversational sessions were designed to screen for signs of family problems such as symptoms of depression in the mother, evidence of family violence, and lack of food. Counseling and government services were offered as needed. The social worker conducted another in-depth visit a year later.
Analysis of the program, published in the Journal of Pediatrics online Dec. 5, showed that by two years of age, scores for parents of 203 children who were randomly assigned to receive Smart Beginnings were significantly higher among three broad survey and observational measures of cognitive development and the home environment compared with scores of parents for 200 children who had been randomly chosen to receive standard pediatric primary care. This group receiving standard care still went for monthly visits to the pediatrician but did not receive any videotaped play and coaching, nor any sessions with a social worker.
"Our study adds to the evidence that positively stimulating cognitive development from infancy to toddlerhood through coaching of parents and home visits that encourage play and reading can dramatically improve the child-parent relationship, and shape the child's social, emotional, and academic development later in life," says study lead investigator Elizabeth B. Miller, PhD, an assistant professor in the Department of Population Health at NYU Langone Health.
"Programs such as Smart Beginnings can possibly help reduce the disparities in early childhood development that disproportionately impact Black and Hispanic children in America," adds Miller.
"Smart Beginnings offers offers an efficient and effective strategy to promote childhood cognitive development from infancy through to toddlerhood," says senior study investigator Pamela Morris-Perez, PhD.
"Because our program is delivered directly from the pediatrician's office, it reaches mothers of newborns where they are most likely to go as part of their routine family care, and it tailors resources to family strengths and needs," says Morris-Perez, a professor of applied psychology at the NYU Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development and an affiliated professor at the NYU School of Global Public Health.
Miller says the cost of the Smart Beginnings program, which is ready to be implemented and scaled, is about one-tenth the cost of other interventional programs with similar goals.
Funding for the study was provided by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development of the National Institutes of Health, grant R01HD076390.
Besides Miller and Morris-Perez (co-principal investigator), other NYU study investigators are Alan Mendelsohn (co-principal investigator) Erin Roby, PhD; Lerzan Coskun, PhD; Marc Scott, PhD; and Juliana Gutierrez, BA. Other study co-investigators are Yudong Zhang, PhD, at Northwestern University in Chicago; Johana Rosas, PhD; and Daniel Shaw, PhD (co-principal investigator), at the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania.

WILMINGTON, Mass., Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Energetiq Technology, an innovative photonics manufacturer based in Wilmington, Massachusetts, announced today that it is creating a distinct business unit for its EUV light source products.
Energetiq's Electrodeless Z-Pinch® extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light sources emit light in the key 13.5 nm region used in advanced node semiconductor metrology.
"Given the growth and importance of our EUV business to the semiconductor industry, we are pleased to develop an independent business unit to support our customers," said Debbie Gustafson, CEO of Energetiq.
The new EUV Business Unit will assemble all the core technology, engineering, marketing, field service, and operations personnel under the management of an EUV General Manager.

The company has also announced that a research and development facility has been established in support of the EUV Business Unit at the headquarters of its parent company, Hamamatsu Photonics, in Japan. This facility will expand the R&D capacity of the business unit and facilitate the leveraging of Hamamatsu's substantial materials and metrology infrastructure. The laboratory and equipment will also become a hub for product and applications support for Energetiq's growing EUV customer base in Asia.
Dr. McDaniel commented, "We face an exciting and very challenging opportunity for rapid and substantial growth in EUV. Achieving the technical milestones and scaling our design and manufacturing capabilities will require a concentrated focus and dedication of resources.

Alongside a thriving professional esports scene and a community of over 80 million registered players, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege puts players in the middle of a fast-paced, ever-evolving multiplayer experience grounded in the selection of unique Operators.

Defenders prepare by transforming the environments around them into modern strongholds, while attackers use recon drones to gain intel for carefully planning their assault. With access to dozens of Operators inspired by real world counter-intelligence agents from around the globe, players can choose exactly how they want to approach each challenge they encounter. Through the constant addition of new Operators and maps that add to the depth of both strategy and combat, the unpredictability of each round of Rainbow Six Siege sets a new bar for intensity and competition in gaming.

Jay Leno has opened up for the first time about the accident that left him with severe burns to his face and body.
In an interview with Hoda Kotb from “Today,” his first since the November 12 incident, the comedian, 72, said he was working underneath an antique 1907 car alongside his friend Dave Killackey when a series of events led to his injuries.
“The fuel line was clogged so I was underneath it. It sounded clogged and I said, ‘Blow some air through the line,’ and so he did,” Leno, an avid car collector, recalled to Kotb. “And suddenly, boom, I got a face full of gas. And then the pilot light jumped and my face caught on fire.”
The “Jay Leno’s Garage” star said he told Killackey, “Dave, I’m on fire,” to which his friend at first simply responded, “All right.”
“I said, ‘No, Dave, I’m on fire.’ And then, ‘Oh, my God,’” Leno added. “Dave, my friend, pulled me out and jumped on top of me and kind of smothered the fire.”
Leno was first taken to a local hospital, and then he was transferred to the Grossman Burn Center in Los Angeles after the incident, CNN previously reported.
In a news conference on November 16, Dr. Peter Grossman, who treated the former “Tonight Show” host, said “it was noted that he had pretty significant burns to face and hands,” going on to say that the burns were on Leno’s “face, his hands, and his chest.”
The burns were a mixture of second-degree and possibly some third-degree burns, according to Grossman, who added that “some of the burns to the face are a little deeper and a little more concerning.”
Although Leno’s injuries were serious, Grossman said at the time that the funnyman was expected to make a full recovery.
Sure enough, just two weeks after the accident, Leno performed in front of a sold-out crowd at his regular haunt the Comedy and Magic Club in Hermosa Beach, California, according to a spokesperson for the club at the time.
According to NBC, Leno joked to reporters outside the venue, “We got two shows tonight. Regular and extra crispy.”
This week’s interview will appear on NBC News’ “Today” show on Wednesday.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) is committed to increasing its nature-positive finance and will continue its process to develop a green finance target. The IDB will also continue leading work with other multilateral development banks (MDBs) to develop a commonly agreed definition of nature-positive finance and a tracking methodology for the second quarter of 2023. The IDB announced its progress during the 15th UN Biodiversity Conference (CBD COP15), which is being held in Montreal, Canada.
A nature-positive economy can unlock $10 trillion in business opportunities by transforming the food, infrastructure, and energy sectors, which are responsible for almost 80% of nature loss. "At the IDB, we understand that supporting nature-positive investments is critical for the economies and people of Latin America and the Caribbean, and the global climate target of net-zero emissions by 2050," said Juan Pablo Bonilla, Manager of the Climate Change and Sustainable Development Sector.
The IDB is working to implement the IDB-led MDB Joint Statement on Nature, People, and Planet from COP26. From 2015 to 2020, the IDB invested over $800 million in 28 projects with nature-based solutions components. These projects leveraged an additional $437 million in financing from partners, amounting to nearly $1.25 billion in total project financing.
As part of an alignment with the UN's Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), the Bank has developed an action plan for mainstreaming natural capital and biodiversity across the institution for approval in early 2023. In addition, through concessional resources, the Bank supports countries in mainstreaming biodiversity across their governments, valuing natural capital, and integrating nature into planning processes. The IDB will accelerate this work to support the region in implementing the GBF and is initiating a process to review the portfolio's exposure to biodiversity loss.
The Bank approved a $100 million debt-for-nature swap project in Barbados that channels 100% of savings to conservation and marks a significant milestone for the IDB in helping its member countries to leverage innovative financial solutions to address biodiversity and climate change. The IDB was the first MDB to use such instruments and has several similar transactions in the pipeline.
Through the Natural Capital Lab (NCL), the IDB continues to work with partners such as France and the UK to deploy funds for ecosystem conservation. Through the Amazon Initiative, the IDB is supporting Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Suriname, incorporating regenerative activities in the Amazon Basin.

Management Commentary
"During the third quarter, we began seeing the results of our vendor rationalization and remediation strategy. Gross margin for the quarter improved to 22.6% from 19.8% in the second quarter and general and administrative expenses decreased $0.4 million from the prior year third quarter. Our focus for the fourth fiscal quarter is on prudent and strict inventory and cash flow management to set the foundation for fiscal 2023," said Kaspien interim CEO Brock Kowalchuk.
Fiscal Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Results compare 2022 fiscal Third quarter ended October 29, 2022 to 2021 fiscal Third quarter ended October 30, 2021 unless otherwise indicated.
- Net revenue decreased 9.4% to $29.1 million from $32.2 million in the comparable year-ago period. The decrease in net revenue was primarily attributable to declines in Fulfillment by Amazon United States ("FBAUS"). Gross merchandise value ("GMV") for the three months ended October 29, 2022 was $63.9 million as compared to $63.5 million for the three months ended October 30, 2021. Retail GMV decreased 7.8% to $30.4 million compared to $33.0 million in the comparable year-ago period. Subscription GMV increased 9.8% to $33.5 million, or 52.4% of total GMV, compared to $30.5 million, or 47.6% of total GMV, in the comparable year-ago period.
- Gross profit decreased 17.9% to $6.6 million or 22.6% of net revenue from $8.0 million or 24.9% of net revenue in the comparable year-ago period. The decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to a reduction in net revenue for FBAUS, and a decrease in merchandise margin. The table below summarizes the year-over-year comparison of gross margin:
- Selling, General & Administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $9.3 million or 31.8% of net revenue as compared to $10.0 million or 31.1% of net revenue in the comparable year-ago period. The decline in SG&A expenses was due to a reduction in Selling expenses related to the decline in Net revenue and a $0.4 million reduction in General and administrative expenses.
- Loss from operations was $2.7 million, compared to a loss from operations of $2.0 million in the comparable year-ago period. The increase in operating loss resulted from the decline in net revenue and a reduction in merchandise margin.

- Net revenue decreased 11.9% to $94.8 million from $107.7 million in the comparable year-ago period. This decrease in net revenue was driven by declines in the Company's FBAUS segment.
- Gross profit was $20.2 million or 21.3% of net revenue, compared to $26.6 million or 24.7% of net revenue over the comparable year-ago period. The decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to a reduction in net revenue on the Amazon US platform, a decrease in merchandise margin and increased warehousing and freight expenses. The table below summarizes the year-over-year comparison of gross margin:
- SG&A expenses decreased 2.9% to $30.0 million or 31.6% of net revenue from $30.9 million or 28.7% of net revenue in the comparable year-ago period. The decrease in SG&A expenses was primarily attributable to a $1.9 million decline in selling expenses partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in general and administrative expenses.
- Loss from operations totaled $9.8 million compared to a loss from operations of $4.3 million in the comparable year-ago period. The increased loss was due to lower Net revenue and gross margin.
- Net loss was $12.4 million, compared to a net loss of $2.2 million in the comparable year-ago period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss, adjusted to exclude: (i) income tax expense; (ii) Other income; (iii) interest expense; and (iv) depreciation expense. Our method of calculating adjusted EBITDA may differ from other issuers and accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. We use adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our own operating performance and as an integral part of our planning process. We present adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure because we believe such a measure is useful to investors as a reasonable indicator of operating performance. We believe this measure is a financial metric used by many investors to compare companies. This measure is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP in the United States and should not be considered as a substitute for operating earnings (losses), net earnings (loss) from continuing operations or cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- As a massive winter storm sweeps across a large swath of the United States this week, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is urging consumers to take steps to protect themselves from carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and fires.
Loss of Power—Using a Generator Safely
Consumers need to be especially careful when storms knock out electrical power. Portable generators create a risk of CO poisoning that can kill in minutes. CO is called the invisible killer because it is colorless and odorless. Exposed persons may become unconscious before experiencing CO-poisoning symptoms of nausea, dizziness or weakness, and it can lead to death.
An average of 85 consumers die in the U.S. each year from CO poisoning from portable generators.* A recent CPSC report, Fatal Incidents Associated with Non-Fire Carbon Monoxide Poisoning from Engine-Driven Generators and Other Engine-Driven Tools 2011-2021, shows that African Americans are at higher risk, accounting for 23 percent of generator-related CO deaths, nearly double their estimated 12 percent share of the U.S. population in that time frame.
In the case of a power outage, follow these important life-saving tips:
- NEVER operate a portable generator inside a home, garage, basement, crawlspace or shed. Opening doors or windows will not provide enough ventilation to prevent the buildup of lethal levels of CO.
- Operate portable generators outside only, at least 20 feet away from the house, and direct the generator's exhaust away from the home and any other buildings that someone could enter, while keeping windows and other openings closed in the path of the generator's exhaust. Do not operate a generator on an outside porch or in a carport. They are too close to the home.
- Check that portable generators have been maintained properly, and read and follow the labels, instructions, and warnings on the generator and in the owner's manual.
- Look for portable generators that have a CO shut-off safety feature, which is designed to shut the generator off automatically when high levels of CO are present around the generator. These models may be advertised as certified to the latest safety standards for portable generators–PGMA G300-2018 and UL 2201–which are estimated to reduce deaths from CO poisoning by 87% and 100%, respectively. UL 2201 certified models have reduced CO emissions in addition to the CO shut-off feature.
Check CO and Smoke Alarms
- Install battery-operated CO alarms or CO alarms with battery backup on each level and outside separate sleeping areas at home. Interconnected CO alarms are best; when one sounds, they all sound. A CO alarm is your last line of defense when using a generator–it can save your life!
- Make sure smoke alarms are installed on every level and inside each bedroom at home.
- Test CO and smoke alarms monthly to make sure they are working properly, and replace batteries, if needed. Never ignore an alarm when it sounds. Get outside immediately. Then call 911.
- Clear snow away from the outside vents for fuel-burning appliances such as furnaces so that dangerous carbon monoxide does not build up in the house.
Dangers with Portable Heaters
- Keep all sides of the portable heater at least 3 feet from beds, clothes, curtains, papers, sofas and other items that can catch fire.
- ALWAYS use a wall outlet; NEVER a power strip and NEVER run the heater's cord under rugs or carpeting.
- Make sure the heater is not near water. NEVER touch it if you are wet.
- Place the heater on a stable, level surface, located where it will not be knocked over.
- NEVER leave running unattended in a confined space to reduce hyperthermia hazards.
- If the heater's cord or plug is HOT, disconnect the heater and contact an authorized repair person. If any part of the outlet is hot, contact a certified electrician.
Dangers with Charcoal and Candles
- NEVER use charcoal indoors. Burning charcoal in an enclosed space can produce lethal levels of CO. Do not cook on a charcoal grill in a garage, even with the door open.
- Use caution when burning candles. Use flashlights instead. If using candles, do not burn them on or near anything that can catch fire. Never leave burning candles unattended. Extinguish candles when leaving the room and before sleeping.
Dangers with Gas Leaks:
- If you smell or hear gas leaking, leave your home immediately and contact local gas authorities from outside the home. Do not operate any electronics, such as lights or phone, before leaving.
Remember, stay informed, be prepared and keep safe!

About the U.S. CPSC
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury or death associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. CPSC's work to ensure the safety of consumer products has contributed to a decline in the rate of injuries associated with consumer products over the past 50 years.
Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.

Leading independent urology nonprofit explains efforts to reduce stress among urologists
CHICAGO, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Urologists have the most stressful job in the United States, according to recently released data from The Occupational Information Network (O*NET), part of the Department of Labor, which released rankings for 873 jobs in the United States. LUGPA, the national voice representing independent urology in the United States, is successfully working to address the variety of stressors that urologists face across the country.
The challenges and stress that urologists face stem in part from the escalating physician shortage in the United States, which has resulted in a significant demand for appointments, especially after many patients delayed care during the pandemic. This demand leads to longer wait times for urologic patients. Due to the number of retiring urologists, the workforce shortage is projected to become more severe over time, with a 2021 JAMA study estimating that there will be a continued decline in urologists per capita through 2060. Additionally, many practices are currently experiencing the effects of high inflation on top of the impending 4.5% Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) payment cut.
LUGPA is working to decrease stress within the urology field. The organization provides members with a variety of tools, including practice management resources. LUGPA also participates in advocacy efforts to reduce regulatory burdens and to level the playing field between hospital and independent physician reimbursement. Additionally, LUGPA supports young urology residents by providing them with networking opportunities and educational resources as they approach their transition to full-time practice.
"Multiple factors, including the escalating physician shortage in the United States, the high stakes decisions that urologists must make every day, the regulatory burdens and the decrease in financial reimbursement from CMS, create an increasingly stressful environment for urologists and their patients," said Evan R. Goldfischer, M.D., president of LUGPA. "LUGPA has made tremendous strides in addressing these issues and strengthening the field of independent urology, and we will continue expanding our efforts to reduce stress for urologists and create the best possible environment for them to be successful."
With these active challenges, urologists also must deal calmly and effectively with high-stress situations. This skillset is what enables urologists to clearly advise patients on next steps in life-or-death situations, including the diagnosis and treatment of prostate and bladder cancers.
"As independent urologists, we are trusted to counsel, diagnose and treat patients in medical situations that are incredibly personal and sometimes frightening," Goldfischer said. "This aspect of the field means that we must develop a significant level of trust with patients and create meaningful patient-provider relationships, which is a large part of what makes the specialty so rewarding. Urologists also must have the ability to communicate with patients with the utmost level of respect, patience and transparency."

America's Cutting Edge CNC Program Aims to Revitalize American Manufacturing
GREENSBORO, N.C., Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (N.C. A&T) and Alamance Community College (ACC) have kicked off the first Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining training of its kind in North Carolina. America's Cutting Edge (ACE), a U.S. Department of Defense program designed to reestablish American leadership in the machine tool industry, provides online and in-person training – all at no cost.
"Industry demand for machine tool operators, engineers, designers, and entrepreneurs far outpaces our manufacturing workforce supply in the U.S.," said Dr. Aixi Zhou, Chair and Professor in the Department of Applied Engineering Technology at N.C. A&T. "At North Carolina A&T, we are leveraging this opportunity with America's Cutting Edge to better serve the Piedmont Triad region."
The ACE program is comprised of two parts. The first is an online requirement that covers an introduction to CNC and 3D modeling using Fusion 360 and virtual machining applications. Upon completion, students become qualified to advance to a week-long, hands-on lab training "bootcamp." Bootcamps provide opportunities for eligible students to learn in a high-intensity environment through hands-on, in-person training.
Working with education partner N.C. A&T as an ACE regional machine tools innovation and workforce development hub, ACC has plans to make its new CNC program a model for the state.
"The ACE program asked us to be part of their extended team and we were the first community college in North Carolina to accept the invitation and be approved," said James Adkins, Department Head of ACC's Computer Integrated Machining (CIM) program. "CIM is a precision machining operation where students learn life skills that allow them to work anywhere in the world. This is especially true for female students who are in high demand in the industry."
ACE also hopes to attract another traditionally underserved community in manufacturing, while connecting with industry. "As the country's largest historically black university (HBCU) and leading producer of African American engineers, North Carolina A&T is uniquely positioned to increase diversity in manufacturing, particularly machining," said Dr. Zhou. "The Piedmont Triad region plays an important role in some niche manufacturing industries, such as aerospace, automotive, bio-manufacturing, and furniture."
When asked about her career plans, bootcamp participant Anaya Maxwell answered definitively, "THIS, exactly this. Today was my first experience working on a CNC machine, but last summer I took a summer camp in 3D printing and loved that too." From Houston, Texas, Anaya is a sophomore at N.C. A&T pursuing a degree in Applied Engineering Technology. "I'd like to own my own business that combines additive and subtractive and work with other black women, but I don't know where I'm going with that yet."
ACE is supported by the defense department's Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment (IBAS) Program. ACE brings together the scientific expertise of Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), advanced training tools and techniques developed by University of Tennessee, Knoxville Professor Tony Schmitz and the workforce development leadership of the Institute for Advanced Composites Manufacturing Innovation® (IACMI). More than 3,100 people from all 50 states are engaged in the online training that began in December 2020, and in-person training is expanding from Tennessee to hubs in North Carolina, Texas, West Virginia, and Florida. Machining and machine tools are at the foundation of America's manufacturing capability and its global competitiveness.

- Founder and CEO Rashida Karmali Ph.D., J.D., is a respected pioneer in cancer research, specializing in drug discovery and development
- Carboxyamidotriazole Orotate (CTO) shows promising results in pre-clinical and Phase I trials
- A privately funded clinical stage company, TTI is raising money for Phase II clinical trials
NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Tactical Therapeutics, Inc. (TTI), a clinical stage biopharma, has been selected to present at the MedInvest Oncology Investor Conference taking place December 14-15, 2022, in New York, N.Y.
"We are honored to be selected to present at this unique event," said Rashida Karmali, Ph.D., CEO of Tactical Therapeutics. "We welcome the chance to interact with many of the world's most accomplished leaders and investors who are all dedicated to improving the health and lives of patients with glioblastoma (GBM) and difficult to treat solid cancers."
Glioblastoma, the brain tumor that killed Senator Ted Kennedy, Beau Biden and Senator John McCain, is still mostly untreatable. Recent reports suggest veterans of Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan wars who were exposed to burn pits later developed GBM. GBM exhibits debilitating neurological symptoms and suicide rates for GBM patients are higher compared to those with other cancers.
Since 2005, GBM, an orphan disease (approximately 18,000/yr), has a median overall survival (OS) of between 12 to 20 months in newly diagnosed GBM with surgery, radiotherapy (with temozolomide) and adjuvant temozolomide, plus tumor treating fields. rGBM recurs frequently within a year with a median OS of 10 months.
TTI's oral, safe and brain-penetrating drug, Carboxyamidotriazole Orotate (CTO), showed efficacy with significantly improved OS from 10 months to 28 months+ in nGBM in Phase IB trial, with published results (J. Clin Oncology, (2018)36:1702-1709).
Dr. Antonio Omuro, who oversaw the CTO Phase I clinical trial, had this to say about the promising treatment:
"In 27 Recurrent GBM patients, 1 complete and 6 partial responses were observed in patients who had been in several previous trials, including patients previously exposed to bevacizumab, who are the most challenging patients to treat. Radiographic responses are rarely seen in glioblastoma trials, therefore these are really promising results. Excellent survival was observed in 15 newly diagnosed GBM (13/15), with median overall survival not reached after 28 months; 2-year survival 62%; 1-year survival 93%. Two patients remain recurrence free at 5 years.
"The safety profile was excellent, and we were also able to demonstrate that CTO crosses the blood brain barrier and can achieve high concentrations in brain tumors. Overall, the Phase IB trials of CTO in GBM patients showed highly promising efficacy and safety in patients with very advanced disease."
CTO is a patented first-in-class inhibitor of genes of non-voltage dependent calcium signaling associated with multiple oncolytic pathways and calcium channels. At clinically relevant CTO levels, differential expression of some mRNA showed inhibition of transcriptional signatures of several oncogenes, and in contrast activation of tumor suppressors.
The IP portfolio includes 8 U.S. and 75 International patents lasting to 2033.
Tactical Therapeutics, Inc., is a privately funded company that has developed a patented lead therapeutic, CTO, for glioblastoma and other solid cancers. Three Phase I trials have been completed. Two Phase II trials are planned for rGBM and nGBM. The company is pursuing partnering and licensing strategies.

"Adding AI copy generation to our already robust offering of marketing automation software adds another element of time-saving and relief to our busy users."
By returning examples of copy based on users' unique inputs, Ghostwriter can break writer's block and make users' marketing efforts more efficient and effective.

"Writing captions is what I dislike most about marketing my small business, so Tailwind Ghostwriter is amazing, said Gina Clark, one of Tailwind's members. "It's far easier for me to tweak something that's been generated for me than it is to come up with something from scratch."
Tailwind has found Ghostwriter to be remarkably high quality in its ability to generate marketing copy - with over 80% of Ghostwriter sessions resulting in a user publishing one or more pieces of copy written by the AI technology.

It is impossible to talk about “Avatar: The Way of Water” without sounding hyperbolic. But James Cameron's sequel is a truly dazzling cinematic experience that will have you floating on a blockbuster high.
No matter if you've spent a second of your life in the past 13 years thinking about what's happening on Pandora or how Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldana) are getting on, assuming you remember their characters' names. “The Way of Water” will make awe-struck believers out of even “Avatar” agonistics like me, at least for three hours and 12 minutes. The film isn't just visually compelling, either, it's spiritually rich as well - a simple but penetrating story about family and the natural world that is galaxies better than the first.
About that run time: Three hours and 12 minutes sounds excessive, but there is something decidedly decadent about really committing that much time to a movie in a theater. When the filmmaker is purposeful with that time, as Cameron is and many others have been before him, it's a uniquely rewarding experience. In other words, it's not a big ask. And you'll forget all about checking the time from the first shot of Pandora and Jake's earnest exposition about what's been going on in the past decade.
He and Neytiri have three kids now, Neteyam (Jamie Flatters), Lo'ak (Britain Dalton), Tuk (Trinity Jo-Li Bliss) and an adopted teenage daughter, Kiri (Sigourney Weaver), and they're happy living in the forest. “Happiness is simple,” he says. “Who ever thought that a jughead like me could crack the code?” So, of course, it can't last. The humans are on the hunt for Jake, with a familiar antagonist leading the charge. And soon his family is on the run, taking up home in another part of Pandora, on the water with a new tribe led by Ronal (Kate Winslet) and Tonowari (Cliff Curtis) who reluctantly grant them refuge and try to teach them how to live on the water.
It's worth noting that Cameron has not stuffed the film with mind-numbing, wall-to-wall action and needlessly complicated plot. There are long stretches of movie where we're simply exploring the environment with the characters, delighting in the intricacies of a reef or basking in the beauty of giant sea creatures. Sometimes we're just sitting in the water with Kiri who is also sitting in the water. It is not advancing the action in any obvious way. It is not even really developing characters. It just is, and it's serene. You imagine that anyone without his clout would have a hard time justifying something similar.
The action is there, too, of course, and it's exciting because you've become invested in the family and worried about the kids who are never where they're supposed to be and are often in danger because of it. And though we know there are more sequels coming, and one already wrapped, this is not the kind of franchise where anyone is guaranteed to get a fake superhero death. Sure there is some “Avatar” silliness, including the fact that the word “bro” is uttered about 8,000 times, but there is something admirable about the straightforward dialogue and emotions at play, too. No one is snarking their way through this ordeal.
“Never doubt James Cameron” has become a bit of a rallying cry lately, at least among those left on Twitter. It's all the more extraordinary as the once-mythical sequels had become a kind of joke in the years since the first movie. Even as “The Way of Water” release date actually approached the “who cares?” chorus intensified. Had anyone really thought twice about “Avatar”? But Cameron knows his way around a thrilling sequel, and the water for that matter (and references his own greatest hits in this film, too).
But then people saw it and the tune changed. There is something comforting about the fact that we are capable of intense, collective cultural whiplash. That “who cares?” can turn to uncynical amazement in an instant. Is that the magic of the movies? Of continuing to push the bounds of the big screen experience? Of betting big on weird-sounding stories about giant blue environmentalists instead of superheroes every so often? Maybe it's just the magic of James Cameron.
“Avatar: The Way of Water,” a 20th Century Studios release in theaters Thursday, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association for “partial nudity, intense action, sequences of strong violence, some strong language.” Running time: 192 minutes. Three and a half stars out of four.

Settlement Is One Of the Largest Agreements Ever For Timeshare Owners Seeking Exit
ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- More than 800 U.S. timeshare owners will be able to enjoy a new sense of freedom during the holidays as Timeshare Compliance, the leading timeshare exit company in America, secured their release from timeshare contracts owed to resort owners in one of the biggest timeshare exit settlements in the industry.
The resolution, which ends separate lawsuits involving two of the largest timeshare companies in the industry, is expected to relieve tens of millions of dollars of timeshare mortgages and maintenance fees for these owners. This settlement will result in canceling high monthly payments, loan interest, club fees and includes refunds to some previous owners. The names of the resort developers are being withheld until the settlement is finalized.
"This was the first time we had achieved a settlement at this scale and for such a large group of timeshare owners, and we're extremely happy for our clients in getting such an overwhelming victory for them," said Bo Wilson, co-Trustee of Timeshare Compliance.
Wilson founded Timeshare Compliance with his co-Trustee, Rich Folk, in 2012, after both worked in the timeshare sales industry and became disgusted with the high-pressure sales tactics and the hidden fees foisted on timeshare prospects and owners. Wilson noted that with this settlement, Timeshare Compliance will have successfully released over 800 timeshare owners from their contracts in 2022.
The settlement with the developers releases the owners that were part of the lawsuit from all obligations under their purchase agreements as well as their monthly payments and timeshare community association fees. Some clients will receive a rebate for payments already made, as well as zeroed-out balances for the remainder, Wilson said.
Under the settlement, the timeshare resorts are also required to ensure to all relevant credit reporting agencies that the Timeshare Compliance clients who were party to the suit are shown owing zero debts to the developers.
Timeshare Compliance will also help their client's post-settlement, with filing their individual release documents and securing the return of their deeds as well as continuing due diligence with all client's financial institutions and credit agencies to ensure their reports are free of any debt or derogatory credit information such as late or missed payments.
"We know we're not done yet here, and we won't stop helping our clients until this process is wrapped up and all our clients have fully exited their agreements and their credit restored," said Folk. "This type of settlement is why we got into this side of the business and we're confident we'll see more large settlements down the road as timeshare sales companies get the message that we're here to seek justice for our clients."
– Editors and producers: For a phone or TV interview with Rich Folk or Bo Wilson please call Rachel Tuhro.
Timeshare Compliance has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and a score of 4.5 (out of 5) or "EXCELLENT" on Trustpilot.com.

Marissa Myers has been shopping almost exclusively at second-hand stores for the past three years.
The 24-year-old sales associate at a non-profit consignment store in Calgary grew up shopping second-hand and is a self-proclaimed "avid thrifter."
"There's absolutely no way that I can justify shopping new and retail when there's already so many clothes in existence," she said.
Myers is not alone.
While many Canadians rely on thrift stores every day, the rising cost of living, as well as ethical concerns, is leading younger generations to make more second-hand purchases.
According to a report published by thrift-store chain Value Village, 80 per cent of generation Z in Canada and the U.S. have purchased clothing at a second-hand store in the last year.
And some are turning to used items this gift-giving season.
But the stigma of purchasing second-hand items still lingers, especially when it comes to gifts.
Myers said items may be perceived as dirty, less desirable or not fitting within social norms, holding some people back from thrifting.
This holiday season, however, Jeff Smail, vice president of business development at Value Village, said thrift stores are seeing more people purchase second-hand gifts, given the current economic climate.
To help reduce the stigma, Natacha Blanchard, a spokeswoman for reselling online platform Vinted, said people can start by requesting second-hand items for the holidays.
"If you want to help promote more second-hand gifts, why not make your wish list just with second-hand?" said Blanchard.
She said that in addition to being more ethical and price-conscious, gifting a used item can make for a unique and sentimental gift.
"I received a [second-hand gift] that had a little note that explained where the product comes from and what its past life was," she said. "Something you cannot really get new."
Throughout his 33 years working at Value Village, Smail said he has noticed that thrift shopping has always been popular with younger generations.
"I was the most popular dad around because I worked for Value Village and so it has always been the upcoming generations that have been interested in thrift," he said. "I think part of it is the uniqueness of the offering."
But this time around, Smail believes the trend among generation Z looks like it's here to stay, as younger Canadians are more concerned with the environmental impact of their actions compared with older generations.
Experts say that the clothing industry of today has many young people worried about how their shopping habits might be contributing to climate change.
Around 30 years ago, apparel companies offered two to three collections per year. Now, the average fast fashion company will offer up to 24 collections every year, said Javad Nasiry, associate professor of Operations Management at McGill University.
One way that fashion retailers have adapted to the growing demand is by reducing the quality of materials used for a garment, reducing its lifespan, said Nasiry.
In addition to the high concentration of resources like water used to create clothes, the textile industry contributes to mass amounts of landfill waste.
According to Value Village, 95 per cent of clothing and textiles thrown away in landfills could have been re-worn or repurposed.
While Nasiry recommends reducing overall consumption habits by repairing or renting clothing items, he said that thrifting is also a great way to reduce waste.
While the holiday season can create a lot of financial stress and waste, thrift stores and reselling platforms can offer a cheaper and more environmentally-friendly alternative to wish-list items.
Gifting used does not only apply to clothing, as second-hand jewelry, electronics, children's toys and books also make great gifts, said Blanchard.
"We need to understand that pre-loved doesn't mean second-best."
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Dec. 13, 2022.

At least one ambulance has been on standby every day at Toronto’s Hospital for Sick Children since last week, assigned to transfer patients if needed as the hospital continues to operate over capacity.
A spokesperson for SickKids said that the downtown pediatric hospital has had daily access to a designated EMS vehicle since Dec. 4 “to support timely transfers to other hospitals.” The ambulance would be available from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m.
“These transfers would typically be for pediatric patients who can be cared for in a pediatric unit at a community hospital that would often be closer to home,” the hospital said in a statement.
SickKids added that the transfers are being done to maintain or increase its capacity amid high-patient volumes.
“We have always worked with community hospital partners who have pediatric units to transfer patients who do not require the specialized, tertiary level of care that SickKids provides. This has been an important component of the system-level coordination required to safely and appropriately care for patients amid the current surge in volumes,” SickKids said.
The move is the latest measure from the hospital, which has seen its resources under immense pressure brought on by a combination of influenza, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and COVID-19.
To help ease the burden, in November SickKids put some surgeries on hold and redeployed some staff to preserve critical care, which has been overcapacity for the past few months.
The hospital’s emergency room has also been flooded by children suffering from respiratory illnesses, resulting in long wait times. One doctor who spoke to the Canadian Press said a child recently spent 36 hours in the ER waiting for an inpatient bed.
Dr. Jason Fischer, the division head of emergency medicine at SickKids, told CP that his department is on track to see more than 90,000 children this year – 8,000 more than the 65,000 patients it usually sees.
The province’s air ambulance service said it had seen an increase in pediatric transfers as hospitals deal with high volumes of sick children.

Peel police have arrested two suspects in connection with two separate armed robberies - one in Mississauga and one in Brampton - on Monday.
Police say that at around 2:30 p.m., a gold exchange store in the area of Dundas Street and Hurontario Street in Mississauga was robbed by five masked suspects who made demands for cash and gold.
Two of the suspects were allegedly armed with firearms.
The suspects fled the scene with a quantity of cash and gold and were seen entering a grey Honda CRV, which was driven by a sixth suspect.
During the robbery, a victim sustained minor injuries, according to police.
Later that day, at around 6:30 p.m., two masked suspects allegedly entered an electronics store in the area of Fogal Road and Highway 50 in Brampton.
“Both suspects were armed with firearms and made demands for cell phones. A number of phones were placed into a bag and the suspects fled the store,” Peel police said in a news release.
“The suspects were again seen entering a grey Honda CRV. No physical injuries were sustained.”
Less than an hour later, investigators located the suspect vehicle in the area of Islington Avenue and Albion Road in Toronto.
The vehicle was occupied by two suspects alleged to have been involved in both robberies.
Peel Regional Police (PRP), with the assistance of the Toronto Police Service (TPS), conducted a “coordinated takedown” and the suspects were arrested without incident.
A loaded 9mm Glock handgun and one replica handgun were recovered by police. All of the stolen cell phones were also recovered and the vehicle, believed to have been used in both robberies, was determined to be stolen as well.
Sameer Ejaz, 20, of Toronto, has been charged with nine offences including robbery with a firearm disguise with intent.
The second suspect, a 17-year-old from Toronto who cannot be identified under the terms of the Youth Criminal Justice Act, has been charged with similar offences.
Both were held for a bail hearing and appeared before the Ontario Court of Justice earlier today.
“Excellent work and display of inter-agency coordination with the Toronto Police Service in effecting these arrests in a safe and timely manner,” said Superintendent Sean Brennan of PRP.
“These criminal acts have no borders, Peel Regional Police remain committed to community safety and well-being as its top priority through continuous collaboration with our GTA partner agencies in apprehending those responsible.”
The investigations into the two robberies are ongoing and police say there are other suspects that remain outstanding.
Investigators are asking anyone with information regarding either incident to contact PRP’s Central Robbery Bureau.

What you're seeing in your feed on Twitter is changing. But how?
The social media platform's new owner, Elon Musk, has been trying to prove through giving selected journalists access to some of the company's internal communications dubbed “The Twitter Files” that officials from the previous leadership team allegedly suppressed right-wing voices.
This week, Musk disbanded a key advisory group, the Trust and Safety Council, made up of dozens of independent civil, human rights and other organizations. The company formed the council in 2016 to address hate speech, harassment, child exploitation, suicide, self-harm and other problems on the platform.
What do the developments mean for what shows up in your feed every day? For one, the moves show that Musk is prioritizing improving Twitter's perception on the U.S. political right. He's not promising unfettered free speech as much as a shift in what messages get amplified or hidden.
WHAT ARE THE TWITTER FILES?
Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion in late October and since then has partnered with a group of handpicked journalists including former Rolling Stone writer Matt Taibbi and opinion columnist Bari Weiss. Earlier this month, they began publishing - in the form of a series of tweets - about actions that Twitter previously took against accounts thought to have violated its content rules. They've included screenshots of emails and messaging board comments reflecting internal conversations within Twitter about those decisions.
Weiss wrote on Dec. 8 that the “authors have broad and expanding access to Twitter's files. The only condition we agreed to was that the material would first be published on Twitter.”
Weiss published the fifth and most recent installment Monday about the conversations leading up to Twitter's Jan. 8, 2021 decision to permanently suspend then-President Donald Trump's account “due to the risk of further incitement of violence” following the deadly U.S. Capitol insurrection two days earlier. The internal communications show at least one unnamed staffer doubting that one of the tweets was an incitement of violence; it also reveals executives' reaction to an advocacy campaign from some employees pushing for tougher action on Trump.
WHAT'S MISSING?
Musk's Twitter Files reveal some of the internal decision-making process affecting mostly right-wing Twitter accounts that the company decided broke its rules against hateful conduct, as well as those that violated the platform's rules against spreading harmful misinformation about COVID-19.
But the reports are largely based on anecdotes about a handful of high-profile accounts and the tweets don't reveal numbers about the scale of suspensions and which views were more likely to be affected. The journalists appear to have unfettered access to the company's Slack messaging board - visible to all employees - but have relied on Twitter executives to deliver other documents.
THE TWITTER FILES MENTION SHADOWBANNING. WHAT'S THAT?
In 2018, after then-CEO Jack Dorsey said Twitter would focus on the “health” of conversations on the platform, the company outlined a new approach intended to reduce the impact of disruptive users, or trolls, by reading “behavioral signals” that tend to indicate when users are more interested in blowing up conversations than in contributing.
Twitter has long said it used a technique described internally as “visibility filtering” to reduce the reach of some accounts that might violate its rules but don't rise to the level of being suspended. But it rejected allegations it was secretly “shadowbanning” conservative viewpoints.
Screenshots showing an employee's view of prominent user accounts disclosed through the Twitter Files show how that filtering works in practice. It's also led Musk to call for changes to make that more transparent.
“Twitter is working on a software update that will show your true account status, so you know clearly if you've been shadowbanned, the reason why and how to appeal,” he tweeted.
WHO'S MONITORING POSTS ON TWITTER NOW?
Musk laid off about half of Twitter's staff after he bought the platform and later eliminated an unknown number of contract workers who had focused on content moderation. Some workers who were kept on soon quit, including Yoel Roth, Twitter's former head of trust and safety.
The departure of so many employees raised questions about how the platform could enforce its policies against harmful misinformation, hate speech and threats of violence, both within the U.S. and across the globe. Automated tools can help detect spam and some suspicious accounts, but others take more careful human review.
It's likely the reductions will force Twitter to concentrate content moderation efforts on regions with stronger regulations governing social media platforms like Europe, where tech companies could face big fines under the new Digital Services Act if they don't make an effort to combat misinformation and hate speech, according to Bhaskar Chakravorti, dean of global business at the Fletcher School at Tufts University.
“The staff has been decimated,” Chakravorti said. “The few content moderators left are going to be focused on Europe, because Europe is the squeakiest wheel.”
HAS THERE BEEN AN IMPACT?
Since Musk bought Twitter a number of researchers and advocacy groups have pointed to an increase in posts containing racial epithets or attacks on Jewish people, gays, lesbians and transgender people.
In many cases, the posts were written by users who said they were trying to test Twitter's new boundaries.
According to Musk, Twitter acted quickly to reduce the overall visibility of the posts, and that overall engagement with hate speech is down since he purchased the company, a finding disputed by researchers.
The most obvious sign of change at Twitter are the formerly banned users whose accounts have been reinstated, a list that includes Trump, satire site The Babylon Bee, the comedian Kathy Griffin, Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson and, before he was kicked off again, Ye. Twitter has also reinstated accounts of neo-Nazis white supremacists including Andrew Anglin, the creator of the white supremacist website Daily Stormer -- along with QAnon supporters whom Twitter's old guard had been removing in masses to prevent hate and misinformation from spreading on the platform.
In addition, some high-profile tweeters like Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene who were previously banned for spreading misinformation about COVID-19 have resumed posting misleading claims about vaccine safety and sham cures.
Musk, who has spread false claims about COVID-19 himself, returned to the topic this with a tweet this week that mocked transgender pronouns while calling for criminal charges against Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert and one of the leaders of the country's COVID response.
Calling himself a “free-speech absolutist,” Musk has said he wants to allow all content that's legally permissible on Twitter but also that he wants to downgrade negative and hateful posts. Instead of removing toxic content, Musk's call for “freedom of speech, not freedom of reach” suggests Twitter may leave such content up without recommending it or amplifying it to other users.
But after cutting out most of Twitter's policy-making executives and outside advisers, Musk often appears to be the arbiter of what crosses the line. Last month, Musk himself announced that he was booting Ye after the rapper formerly known as Kanye West posted an image of a swastika merged with a Star of David, a post that was not illegal but deeply offensive. The move led to questions about what rules govern what can and can't be posted on the platform.

Partner results are promising, demonstrating MiniGame performance shows an average 27% engagement rate and an average click-through rate of 55.6%.

DETROIT, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Mellon Foundation awarded a $6 million grant to Wayne State University to launch a cluster hire program that will recruit and hire 30 new humanities faculty and create the Detroit Center for Black Studies. The grant advances Wayne State's work to build a more inclusive and equitable university by prioritizing faculty and research centered on the Black experience.
"We are grateful that the Mellon Foundation recognizes Wayne State's efforts to transform Black Studies at the university with this impactful support," said Wayne State Provost Mark Kornbluh.
"Wayne State is located in the largest majority-Black city in America, and our curricula should reflect that with more courses that center the Black experience and the role that race has played in American history, culture, and society. This grant propels us to build a more inclusive curriculum, a broader research agenda, and deeper impact on our community by dramatically increasing the number of faculty members whose work centers the Black experience."
With the funding from the Mellon Foundation, Wayne State will recruit 10 new early career scholars in the humanities for the Pathway to Faculty program, an initiative to guide and prepare pre-faculty fellows for tenure-track positions; 10 new tenure-track hires; and 10 tenured faculty members at the associate or full professor level.
The focus will be on scholars whose research interests expand knowledge about people of color and the issues that affect them, along with studies involving the impact of race, racism, inequality, and struggles for equality and justice. This includes scholars who are committed to creating more inclusive curricula for students, who have experience in or demonstrated commitment to teaching and mentoring students of myriad backgrounds, and who are committed to engaging in service with the Black community.
"What Wayne State will achieve with this grant aligns perfectly with the goals of the Mellon Foundation," said Phillip Brian Harper, program director for Higher Learning at the Mellon Foundation. "Working to ensure faculty members elevate humanities knowledge in their communities is critically important, as is the support of these faculty members in their efforts to build thoughtful, inclusive curricula."
A second initiative that the Mellon Foundation will support is the launch of the Detroit Center for Black Studies, a faculty-led multidisciplinary center at Wayne State that connects Black Studies faculty from institutions across the state of Michigan.
The goal is an inclusive center that brings together the breadth of scholars who work in African American, African, and African-diaspora studies and the interconnections with U.S. and global histories, culture, social, economic, legal, and health systems.
"With this Mellon-supported initiative, we aim to have a major impact on the key work of Wayne State: research, teaching, community engagement, and student success," said Wayne State University President M. Roy Wilson. "We are committed to building a much more inclusive public research university that better reflects and serves our city, state and nation. Ultimately, we believe that these hires and the curricula and community ties they develop will help us continue to increase success rates across our entire student population."
The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation is the nation's largest supporter of the arts and humanities. Since 1969, the Foundation has been guided by its core belief that the humanities and arts are essential to human understanding. The Foundation believes that the arts and humanities are where we express our complex humanity, and that everyone deserves the beauty, transcendence, and freedom that can be found there. Through our grants, we seek to build just communities enriched by meaning and empowered by critical thinking, where ideas and imagination can thrive. Learn more at mellon.org.
Wayne State University is a premier urban research institution offering approximately 350 academic programs through 13 schools and colleges to nearly 25,000 students.

Angelina and Neches River Authority board approves improvements to Prairie Grove Utilities
ANGELINA COUNTY, Texas (KTRE) - The Angelina and Neches River Authority approved Tuesday for a $200,000 temporary project and to begin the application process for a $7.2 million grant for a long-term fix to Prairie Grove’s water issues.
These projects are coming to repair an old system and will bring more water to the area. The area currently gets around 25 gallons per minute for water capacity.
The first is a short-term plan that brings water from Diboll to Prairie Grove and increases the water capacity to 100 gallons per minute for the area. General Manager for Angelina and Neches River Authority says this is a $200,000 project.
“What we’re planning on doing is laying a water line on top of the ground or very shallow in public right-aways from where the current master meter is in Diboll over to our Sherwood Forest treatment plant,” Holcomb said.
They also approved to submit their second application to get a grant from the Texas Water and Development Board for a long-term solution to the water issues. Holcomb explains they have made the first funding cut.
“There’s a line where they have the initial amount of money, and they are going to fund every project down to that line,” Holcomb said.
Holcomb says out of about 230 applications this project ranked 16th of being the most important.
“As a result, we have gotten the invitation to apply to submit the big, full application which is audits and contracts and all sorts of documentation associated with this,” Holcomb said.
Tuesday they approved to submit that application. From there the board will review those applications and will announce if the project will be funded. The $7.2 million project- if it is approved by the board, they will grant funds for 70% of the project, and ANRA will pay for the other 30%. Holcomb says that once the funds are secured, they will begin the prep work.
“You’re looking at the summer of 2024 before we are actually authorized to begin construction. Once construction begins, you’re talking about an 18-month window for construction, Holcomb said.”
The second application for The Texas Water Board grant is due December 19th.

FBI report shows high hate crime levels, but data missing
WASHINGTON (AP) — Hate crimes in the U.S. remained relatively high last year after a surge not seen in nearly two decades, according to a new FBI report. But experts say it is actually an undercount because thousands of police departments, including some of the country’s largest, didn’t report their data.
Major cities like New York and Los Angeles, as well as large swaths of states including Florida and California, didn’t send crime information to the FBI for 2021 due largely to changes in reporting requirements. The agency normally puts out the most comprehensive picture of hate crime in the nation, so this year’s report is concerning for advocates trying to address spikes in hate crimes that have heightened fears among marginalized groups and sparked calls to address the issue head on.
“Hate crimes tear at the fabric of our society and traumatize entire communities,” said Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League, as he called on law enforcement to commit to hate-crime data collection. “The failure by major states and cities across the country to report hate crime data essentially — and inexcusably — erases the lived experience of marginalized communities across the country.”
The troubling trend continued this year with a series of brutal, high-profile hate crimes, including a mass shooting at an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs and another that targeted Black people at a grocery store in Buffalo.
The nearly 7,300 hate crimes that were documented in the report are the third-highest total in the last decade and deeply alarming, Greenblatt said. The majority of victims were targeted due to their race, followed by sexual orientation and religion. But while the FBI report pointed to a small decrease from 2020 to 2021, other research has found that last year actually saw a troubling increase in hate crimes.
The Center for the Study of Hate & Extremism at California State University-San Bernardino found a 21% increase from 2020 to 2021 in an analysis of 20 states, drawing from police data.
In cities with more than 1 million people, meanwhile, hate crimes surged 39%, his research has found, with especially steep spikes in anti-Asian hate crime. Large cities are key to hate-crime data because they tend to be more diverse and have more ways for people to tell authorities about hate crimes, which are historically underreported, he said. But many were missing from this year’s FBI report.
“We’re talking about, quite possibly, a record for 2021 that America just doesn’t know,” said Brian Levin, a professor of criminal justice and the center’s director. “All data has limitations, but this data is so incomplete as to leave out heavy swaths of places where the most terrorized communities live.”
Less than two-thirds of the nearly 19,000 eligible law enforcement agencies reported hate crime data to the FBI for 2021, a steep decline compared to more than 80% the year before. That’s because the federal agency switched to a new, more detailed reporting system. Police departments, including those in the nation’s largest cities, said they weren’t able to make the transition to the new system in time. Crime data collection from police departments has always been voluntary, and the bumpy transition also hampered violent crime data.
Federal authorities acknowledge the shortfall, but say the new system will eventually provide the country with a “richer and more complete picture of hate crimes nationwide,” Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta said in a statement. The Justice Department is doing a number of things to address the increase in hate crimes, including prioritizing those investigations at field offices around the country, awarding millions in grant money to local police and adding new victim resources in more languages, she said.
“The Justice Department is committed to prioritizing prevention, investigation and prosecution of hate crimes,” she said. “The FBI’s 2021 Hate Crimes Statistics are a reminder of the need to continue our vigorous efforts to address this pervasive issue in America.”

Body bags market in Europe - Segmentation assessment
Segment overview
Technavio has segmented the market based on end-user and raw material.
- The morgue segment will grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. Morgues use body bags to transport and store corpses. The growth of this segment is driven by factors such as the rising prevalence of infectious diseases and the increasing number of new cremation centers being established across Europe.
Body bags market in Europe – Market dynamics
Key factors driving market growth
- The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is driving the growth of the body bags market in Europe.
- Some of the common chronic diseases include cancer, CVD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes, and viral diseases. The prevalence of these diseases is rising due to several lifestyle-related factors, such as smoking, drinking, exposure to biomass fuels, and air pollution.
- Old age also contributes to the rising prevalence of chronic diseases. Hence, the growth of the global geriatric population will increase the number of people at risk of developing chronic diseases.
- These factors will drive the demand for body bags in Europe during the forecast period.
Recent trends influencing the market
- The rise in traffic accidents is a key trend in the market.
- In 2020, traffic accidents in Europe caused more than 1.3 million injuries and approximately 26,000 death.
- The number of injuries and deaths caused by accidents per 10,000 people was the highest in Austria, followed by Germany and Portugal.
- Therefore, a rise in the number of people killed in traffic accidents will increase the demand for body bags, which, in turn, will contribute to the growth of the body bags market in Europe during the forecast period.
Major challenges hindering market growth
- The environmental impact of body bags is challenging the growth of the body bags market in Europe.
- Body bags are made from environmentally harmful compounds such as olefins, polypropylene, reinforced poly material, PVC, nylon, mesh PVC, and bioplastics such as polylactic acid (PLA) and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA). Nylon is non-biodegradable and remains in the environment indefinitely.
- Hence, recycling body bags is a major challenge, as it leads to a negative impact on the environment. The manufacturing process of body bags leads to the emission of toxic chemicals.
- These factors will hinder the growth of the body bags market in Europe during the forecast period.

Cohen & Steers Closed-End Funds Declare Distributions for January, February, and March 2023
NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Boards of Directors of the Cohen & Steers Closed-End Funds announced today the monthly distributions for January, February, and March 2023, as summarized in the charts below:
Distributions will be made on the following schedule:
Cohen & Steers Tax-Advantaged Preferred Securities and Income Fund has increased its monthly distribution by $0.004 per share, to $0.134 per share. The Fund's monthly distribution has been adjusted to reflect current market conditions.
Cohen & Steers Tax-Advantaged Preferred Securities and Income Fund and Cohen & Steers Real Estate Opportunities and Income Fund pay regular monthly cash distributions to common shareholders at a level rate that may be adjusted from time to time. Each of these fund's distributions reflect net investment income, and may also include net realized capital gains and/or return of capital. Return of capital includes distributions paid by a fund in excess of its net investment income. Such excess is distributed from the fund's assets. Under federal tax regulations, some or all of the return of capital distributed by a fund may be taxed as ordinary income. The amount of monthly distributions may vary depending on a number of factors, including changes in portfolio and market conditions.
______________________________________________________________________________
Cohen & Steers Closed-End Opportunity Fund, Inc., Cohen & Steers Limited Duration Preferred and Income Fund, Inc., Cohen & Steers Select Preferred and Income Fund, Inc., Cohen & Steers Total Return Realty Fund, Inc., Cohen & Steers REIT and Preferred and Income Fund, Inc., Cohen & Steers Infrastructure Fund, Inc., and Cohen & Steers Quality Income Realty Fund, Inc. only:

(each, a "Fund" and collectively the "Funds") declared their monthly distributions pursuant to such Fund's managed distribution plans. Each Fund implemented a managed distribution policy in accordance with exemptive relief issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The policy gives each Fund greater flexibility to realize long-term capital gains throughout the year and to distribute those gains on a regular monthly basis to shareholders. Information can also be found on the Funds' website at cohenandsteers.com. The Board of Directors of each Fund may amend, terminate or suspend the managed distribution policy at any time, which could have an adverse effect on the market price of each Fund's shares.
Distributions of a fund's investment in real estate investment trusts (REITs), master limited partnerships (MLPs) and/or closed-end funds (CEFs) may later be characterized as capital gains and/or a return of capital, depending on the character of the dividends reported to each fund after year end by the REITs, MLPs and CEFs held by a fund.
Each Fund's distributions may include net investment income, long-term capital gains, short-term capital gains and/or return of capital. Under the plan, prior to the payment date of the distribution every month, each Fund will issue a press release and a notice containing information about the amount and sources of the distribution and other related information to shareholders of record on the record date.

Cohen & Steers Quality Income Realty Fund, Inc. (RQI) Declares Year-End Capital Gain Distribution
NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Board of Directors of the Cohen & Steers Quality Income Realty Fund, Inc. (NYSE: RQI) (the "Fund") has declared a year-end capital gain distribution, as summarized in the chart below. In addition to the regular monthly dividend, this year-end capital gain distribution is being paid to allow the Fund to meet its 2022 distribution requirement for federal excise tax purposes. A substantial portion of the total distribution will be taxable to shareholders in 2022.
In December 2011, the Fund implemented a managed distribution policy in accordance with exemptive relief issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The managed distribution policy seeks to deliver the Fund's long-term total return potential through regular monthly distributions declared at a fixed rate per common share. This policy will give the Fund greater flexibility to realize long-term capital gains throughout the year and to distribute those gains on a regular monthly basis to shareholders. The Board of Directors of the Fund may amend, terminate or suspend the managed distribution policy at any time, which could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund's shares.
The Fund's monthly distributions may include long-term capital gains, short-term capital gains, net investment income and/or return of capital for federal income tax purposes. Return of capital includes distributions paid by the Fund in excess of its net investment income and net realized capital gains and such excess is distributed from the Fund's assets. A return of capital is not taxable; rather, it reduces a shareholder's tax basis in his or her shares of the Fund. In addition, distributions from the Fund's investments in real estate investment trusts (REITs) may later be characterized as capital gains and/or a return of capital, depending on the character of the dividends reported to the Fund after year-end by REITs held by the Fund. The amount of monthly distributions may vary depending on a number of factors, including changes in portfolio and market conditions.
At the time of each monthly distribution, information will be posted to cohenandsteers.com and mailed to shareholders in a concurrent notice. However, this information may change at the end of the year because the final tax characteristics of the Fund's distributions cannot be determined with certainty until after the end of the calendar year. Final tax characteristics of all of the Fund's distributions will be provided on Form 1099-DIV, which is mailed after the close of the calendar year.
The following table sets forth the estimated amounts of the current distributions and the cumulative distributions paid this fiscal year-to-date from the sources indicated. All amounts are expressed per common share.
You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Fund's managed distribution policy. The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this Notice are only estimates, are likely to change over time, and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for accounting and tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The amounts and sources of distributions year-to-date may be subject to additional adjustments.
*THE FUND WILL SEND YOU A FORM 1099-DIV FOR THE CALENDAR YEAR THAT WILL TELL YOU HOW TO REPORT THESE DISTRIBUTIONS FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES.
The Fund's Year-to-date Cumulative Total Return for fiscal year 2022 (January 1, 2022 through November 30, 2022) is set forth below. Shareholders should take note of the relationship between the Year-to-date Cumulative Total Return with the Fund's Cumulative Distribution Rate for 2022. In addition, the Fund's Average Annual Total Return for the five-year period ending November 30, 2022 is set forth below. Shareholders should note the relationship between the Average Annual Total Return with the Fund's Current Annualized Distribution Rate for 2021. The performance and distribution rate information disclosed in the table is based on the Fund's net asset value per share (NAV). The Fund's NAV is calculated as the total market value of all the securities and other assets held by the Fund minus the total liabilities, divided by the total number of shares outstanding. While NAV performance may be indicative of the Fund's investment performance, it does not measure the value of a shareholder's individual investment in the Fund. The value of a shareholder's investment in the Fund is determined by the Fund's market price, which is based on the supply and demand for the Fund's shares in the open market.
Fund Performance and Distribution Rate Information:
Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expense of the Fund carefully before investing. You can obtain the Fund's most recent periodic reports, when available, and other regulatory filings by contacting your financial advisor or visiting cohenandsteers.com. These reports and other filings can be found on the Securities and Exchange Commission's EDGAR Database. You should read these reports and other filings carefully before investing.

The market is segmented by type (sail yachts and motor yachts), application (commercial and private), and geography (Europe, APAC, North America, South America, and Middle East and Africa).
Segmentation by Type (Inclusion/Exclusion)
- Inclusion:
- Sail yachts:
The sail yachts segment grew gradually by 195 thousand units million in 2017 and continued to grow till 2021. In this segment, the absence of a large engine, increased automation employed in production, and the introduction of fiberglass hulls will keep the prices of luxury sail yachts lower than luxury motor yachts. In addition, these types of yachts feature all possible modern conveniences, such as ACs, television, navigation aids, radar, echo-sounding, autopilot, computer-controlled electric winches for controlling the sails, and a reliable power-generating system. Such factors will increase segment growth during the forecast period.

NeedsList urgently launches online aid marketplace 'RespondLocal' supported by Google.org as the crisis in Ukraine deepens
LONDON, Dec. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- As the war in Ukraine escalates, humanitarian tech company Needslist is urgently launching an online platform to help local organisations swiftly access large-scale donations of warm clothes, generators, food and other fundamental items.
The UN estimates 17.7m people in Ukraine are in urgent need, with plummeting temperatures and mass power outages further fuelling the humanitarian crisis. The platform allows businesses, large international NGOs and other suppliers to matchmake with small grassroots organisations, through an online marketplace.
Google.org supported NeedsList with a $1m grant and a team of 7 Google Fellows - engineers who worked full-time for 6 months, to strengthen security features and translate the platform into five languages,
Since NeedsList launched, the RespondLocal platform has delivered more than $19m of aid, to over 500,000 beneficiaries across 25 countries, supporting the resettling of Afghan, Ukrainian and Venezuelan refugees in the USA, and delivering locally made COVID PPE to refugee health workers in Bangladesh, Iraq, Uganda and Kenya.
Kat Sellers, CSO at NeedsList:
'The crisis in Ukraine is deepening and we need to be dynamic in what is an increasingly volatile environment. RespondLocal is designed to assist faster, more sustainable humanitarian action - matching the biggest multilateral NGOs with the smallest grassroots organisation in real-time. We are hugely excited at the potential for this and grateful to the team at Google.org for making this a reality".
Jen Carter, Global Head of Technology at Google.org: 'With record numbers of people needing humanitarian aid across the world, it's crucial that we provide aid in the most efficient way possible. Through a grant and a close pro-bono collaboration with the NeedsList team, the Google.org Fellows were able to help NeedsList build the Ukrainian instance of RespondLocal, a game-changing platform that will enable Needslist to support millions of Ukrainian people - including those still in Ukraine and those that have left for other European countries.'
All organisations who are onboarded are vetted through strict criteria to ensure donors and those receiving aid can have full confidence. Local organisations Team4UA and SpivDiia, have already delivered aid through the platform.
Kat continues, "We encourage every business, supplier or NGO interested in supporting the Ukraine response to get involved, whether through in-kind donations or funding, in order to ensure aid gets to those local organisations that need it most".
