Technology Start-up’s Workspace Fitness Solutions Poised to Revolutionize Work From Home Fitness

0
The company’s innovative solutions will help boost employee output and overall health.
 

VICTORIA, BC – June 16, 2020 – Getting fit while on the job may soon become the new normal, if Victoria-based start-up, Ergonomyx, achieves their Kickstarter campaign goal to fund their innovative workspace fitness devices.

Ergonomyx is a digital health technology company that manufactures workspace fitness products that connect to cloud services and mobile apps. The company has created a line of workspace fitness products designed to encourage a healthier lifestyle while working at a desk. The products include a Smart Sit-and-Stand Desk and a Smart Under-the-Desk Bike.

The Smart Smart Sit-and-Stand Desk allows users to work at a higher function all day long.  This desk design is based on the fact that standing yields up to 10% more productivity with higher energy levels, improved concentration, fewer headaches and overall health improvement.  In fact, according to recent studies extended sitting during the day can increase blood pressure which is a major risk factor for heart disease; however, research has proven that using the Smart Sit-and-Stand DESK in the “stand” position directly after lunch decreases the risk of high blood pressure.

For those who prefer to alternate positions while working, the Smart under-the-Desk Bike is the other option.  This breakthrough equipment enables users to pedal while sitting at their desks and monitor their physical activity while working throughout the day.  It is especially useful for those suffering from restless legs syndrome.

But that’s not all. To optimise user results, the company has created the Ergonomyx app which allows users to connect to the workspace devices to set up their preferences and track their fitness data.

When asked about the motivation for creating the workspace fitness devices, R&D Engineer, Sergio Perez, explained: “Finding ways to keep active while at a desk for eight hours a day is a 21st century challenge faced by a very large percentage of the population. Many people with a sit and stand desk forget to use them.  We want to make it easier for people looking to combine work with fitness and so we created a fun and accessible gamified environment surrounding workspace fitness, while also filling a hole in the market.”

To realize their objective of revolutionizing workspace fitness, Ergonomyx has launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise $27,500. Anyone can back the campaign with as little as $5; however, donations of $329 CAD or more will be rewarded with one of the fitness solutions.

American investment firm Iconia Capital LLC releases explosive documentary exposing death threats, corrupt judges and violations of law in Georgia

0

The company is also awaiting a critical court decision this month from the Supreme Court of Georgia

 

The Republic of Georgia, a former member of the Soviet Union, has encouraged American investors to enter and help energize their economy. Unfortunately, this may just be theatrics as American real estate developer Iconia Capital LLC has found their project in the country’s capital to be under an ongoing, multi-year attack by opponents backed by local judges and political figures.

The American investment firm Iconia Capital LLC, which is fully owned and financed by U.S. citizens from Hawaii, continues to struggle against local adversaries who are backed by contacts in both the Georgian government and in the judiciary. However, the firm has recently released a short documentary, which, for the first time, has exposed a number of former and current officials involved in the attempted destruction of these guest investors in Georgia.

Formed in April 2014, Iconia Capital LLC has had its first real estate development project in Tbilisi, the Hippodrome Skytowers, under constant attack and harassment for the past five years by politically connected opponents with personal interests in illegally seizing the Americans’ property. Due to open attacks by government officials, irregular and biased court decisions, threats from former court officials, defamation by a pro-government television channel, and even threats of physical confrontations, the American investors have been frozen in time: unable to continue construction on the project, even as revenues are zero and company expenses continue to mount.

Iconia Capital’s CEO, Seth Char, notes the following message that he has delivered to the Georgian government and the High Council of Justice:

“Sometime this month, we are expecting a major decision from the Supreme Court of Georgia regarding the future of our investment in the country. We respectfully request, and require, that the Georgian government ensures we receive the decision with transparency, expediency, and honesty: under the standards of Georgian and international law. It is legally and ethically wrong for the courts to freeze our business indefinitely when we have violated no laws or codes in Georgia.”

“It is also necessary for the authorities to actually follow up on our evidence and control the “rogue elements” present in the court system: rogue elements that have personal financial interests and have been documented, on record, threatening myself and others.”

Mr. Char also notes that his company continues to pursue legal action via UNCITRAL arbitration against the Georgian government for past and present violations of the 1994 U.S. – Georgia Bilateral Investment Treaty, which requires guarantees of protection, security, and fair treatment to all Americans operating in the country.

Until the Georgian government can restore security and rule of law for the American businesses who have been harmed, or worse, bankrupted by rogue elements in Georgia, the investors of Iconia Capital maintain their position: that investing in Georgia continues to be an activity fraught with risks and dangers that are impossible to overcome.

Dylan Leibrich and Conan Mac introducing brand new EP release: Friends

0

June 16, 2020 – The current COVID-19 lockdowns have certainly been a very difficult time for artists all around the world. Thankfully, many of them have been able to keep recording, anreven team up with some other collaborators in order to create something unique. This is definitely the case of artist and songwriter Dylan Leibrich, who recently teamed up with UK-based pop artist Conan Mac. The artist has a unique background, and he also collaborated with other musicians, such as Scottish DJ Ashton as well as Drew Schiff, RYNO, Sandy Beales (from One Drection) and many others. At the young age of 15, Conan already has two hits on the iTunes charts, and it is not surprising to see that he is back for more quality music, this time along with Dylan, who is a very accomplished talent in his own right.

Their brand new collaborative EP captures the amazing nuances of the best pop music, and it goes for a one-of-a-kind vibe, which has a classic production and a distinctive sound that feels modern and punchy. Great pop music is all about connecting with the audience on a deeper level, and this is exactly what’s happening here with Dylan and Conan’s music.

One of the main things that you might notice is certainly the fact that the songs are mixed very well, in terms of recording aesthetics. The instrumental mix is balanced and direct, with a really deep low end and a crunchy mid-range that adds a lot of excitement to the track. In addition to that, the treble range is smooth and bright, adding a lot of silky edge to the mix, and allowing the vocals to really pop to the forefront of the mix.

Find out more about Dylan Leibrich and Conan Mac, and do not miss out on their most recent studio EP, “Friends,” which is currently streaming June 26th

Safe Company launches Ready-to-Use COVID-19 kits providing schools, homes, and businesses with essential PPE

Innovative safety company delivers FDA approved items from trusted manufacturers

 

June 16, 2020 – New York City, NY – The United States has experienced over 117,000 deaths from COVID-19 while more than 2.14 million people have contracted the deadly virus. Despite the health implications COVID-19 has on the population, restrictions on businesses have lifted around the US. Schools are also seeing restrictions reduced as a handful of states have allowed in-person summer school programs to take place.

The re-opening of businesses and schools could increase the spread of COVID-19, if both areas are not properly prepared. Safe Company, an outlet that enables the distribution of medical and protective materials, has launched its Ready-to-Use COVID-19 kits which contain all the necessary PPE equipment individuals need to stay safe. Each Ready-to-Use COVID-19 kit comes with FDA approved materials from trusted manufacturers to help keep individuals young and old from contracting the disease.

Safe Company offers three different styles of kits including a business, home, and school kit.  Buyers can determine which size kit they require and dependent on their needs. The kits come with a variety of safety items including masks, hand sanitizer, and gloves.

Kits can be purchased by schools to keep staff and students safe for in-person lessons. The home and school kits are especially handy due to parents sending their children back to school or to childcare. It isn’t just homework and lunches kids are sent off with nowadays as PPE is an important element for all children to take with them. School Ready-to-Use COVID-19 safety kits come with disposable products, so kids won’t reuse contaminated items. Students will even find PPE items for socializing in the kits. The company also provides a downloadable kit that schools can print out to show proper PPE use.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic hit, there have been a variety of companies to take advantage of individuals with subpar and defective PPE equipment. Safe Company has worked with its manufacturers for years and guarantees the reliability of its high-quality products.

As more people return to work and school, the use of PPE will become more commonplace around America to keep individuals safe. Safe Company’s Ready-to-Use COVID-19 safety kits can give parents, business owners, customers, and school employees some peace of mind as they return to normal.

Why George Floyd’s Murder & Not Other Similar Deaths Is Causing American Furor, Says Author Khefa Nosakhere

0
Nosakhere‘s new book, “Institutional Racism,” discusses Black masculinity in an American, 21st century context.

 

New Orleans, LA – Khefa Nosakhere spoke out on racism before George Floyd’s death dominated national and world news. He just released “Institutional racism and the search for African American masculinity and identity in selected works of Richard Wright,” a non-fiction work he says is especially timely.

“The reason all of this – the protests, the NFL response, the Corporate America response, the local governments’ responses to defund police departments – all of it is happening because everyone was at home under COVID-19 restrictions watching this man’s life be taken from him in real, slow time.”

George Floyd, 46, died after being handcuffed on the street in the custody of the Minneapolis police on Memorial Day. A 10-minute cell phone video of the encounter showed former Officer Derek Chauvin holding his knee on the back of Mr. Floyd’s neck for eight minutes and 46 seconds while Mr. Floyd repeatedly gasped, “I can’t breathe.” He and the three other officers on the scene all face criminal charges.

In preparing for interviews and lectures, he says, “George Floyd accomplished something in death he never could have accomplished in life. He is a transformative figure in that regard.”

“Institutional Racism” focuses on how white male supremacy has shaped the lives of Bigger Thomas (Native Son), Richard Wright (Black Boy), and Fred Daniels (The Man Who Lived Underground). The book also answers how social maladies negatively impact Black men to this day.

“As a Black male, you have white male supremacy all around you, and you have to understand that you are treated differently because of factors that started back in the 1700s, and are clearly still in place today,” he says.

Nosakhere, a native of New Orleans, LA, is also the author of, “America, the ‘Beautiful’,” a book of dystopian fiction. He holds a B.A. in Literature and Language from the University of Southern California. His Master’s Degree in Literature focused on literary criticism, and his literary specialties are 20th century American literature, major authors, African-American literature, scholarly essays, literary criticism, African diaspora literature, short stories, creative writing, and poetry.

Nosakhere proposes a solution: reparations, and outlines what that could look like. “A year-long festival similar to the celebrations that African Nations got as they achieved their independence,” he says, “elimination of student loan debt for all African descendants living in this country, and universal health care for life.”

Nosakhere envisions ultimately being able to impact such change in the future, by taking on an advisory role to Black lawmakers.

Indie singer-songwriter releases new single promoting message of unity during pandemic, protests

0
‘We are one’ from artist Shirra encourages Americans to come together to fight for good

Rising singer and songwriter Shirra has dropped a new single with deeply personal meaning that also has a message of hope for Americans in the midst of global unrest.

As Americans grapple with the COVID-19 pandemic and the civil unrest caused by George Floyd’s death in Minnesota, the artist Shirra has released the song “We Are One,” now available where songs can be downloaded.

According to Shirra, her new song’s lyrics resonate with current events across the U.S. today.

“From the pandemic to Black Lives Matter protests over George Floyd’s death, people are coming together,” she said. “Just as my song title says, I want to remind the world that we are one.”

Shirra believes her powerful new ballad’s larger message about resilience will have universal appeal.

“The chorus is about not giving up or giving in, even when everything is against you and you have nothing else,” she said. “It’s about faith, hope, and believing in yourself even when no one does.”

Shirra originally penned her song to express her own life experiences. It wasn’t until later that a new meaning emerged as people are uniting all over the world to fight for good.

“When I wrote the chorus, I was writing about my personal experiences,” Shirra said.

She now envisions the song as an anthem for crowds of protestors shouting “We Are One” in unison.

“I believe music is what binds us and reminds us how human we all are,” she said.

Is OTT business recession proof? – an insight by Bernard G

0

One of the coolest business models, which is quietly multiplying during the last 6 months all over the world is the OTT business. For those of you who don’t know… OTT business is the newest form of Video Sharing business and a part of the ever-growing Entertainment Industry. As per the recent report, the global over the top (OTT) streaming market is expected to grow from US $104.11 billion in 2019 to US $161.37 billion in 2020 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of a whopping 55%. The unexpected growth is mainly due to worldwide lockdown caused by the pandemic as we know, the COVID-19 outbreak, during these tough times for most businesses but this is the time when subscription to various Over The Top streaming channels in various countries and viewerships has increased phenomenally. As many industry reports say and predicted by industry experts, the market is then expected to stabilize and reach $169.4 billion in 2023 at CAGR of 14.0% from 2021. This is one of the industries which got benefited by the pandemic after the medical industry.

The ever increasing transformation in customer’s social patterns which is shifting from traditional subscriptions to broadcasting services and to over-the-top (OTT) on-demand video and music subscriptions every year, will drive this video streaming market in the next couple of years at an unexpected pace. Most of the segments of the population have started using video streaming services instead of regular television for entertainment, due to added benefits such as on-demand services and ease of access. Initially, it was said that this is for the Upper class or the High-income group of people and now it has reached the lower class or the lower-income people as well with the operators who have come out with interesting subscription models.

As this trend started to rise, some of the countries which entered the OTT segment recently like India and China are expected to see an exponential rise in the number of content streaming users in video-streaming and pay per view services. As many of us know in March 2018, the OTT content streaming service, Netflix, announced its plans to add 100 million users from India to their existing 125-million base worldwide. The increase in the customer base will boost the growth of the OTT streaming market.

Even though this industry is booming, many of the existing players are trying to change their offerings to attract more customers as well as getting updated frequently, before someone comes and disrupts them easily. As we all know Digital transformation is happening in every industry so the Media industry is no exception. The OTT industry has not tapped some of the interesting industries fully such as gaming, education, medical, sports etc. Looks like the post COVID era will boost the Video Streaming industry further-reaching various new segments, devices and age groups. As this pandemic is still continuing and film production companies across the globe are trying to release their projects through various OTT platforms. COVID has become a catalyst for the transformation of the Media industry.

The Indian market is still new for the OTT platforms and many corporate and other industry leaders are exploring opportunities in this industry to take a pie out of it. All the OTT players are coming out with new features, packages, and content to attract the never satisfying customer base from various countries. With the increasing speed of the internet and the reducing price of cloud storage will be a catalyst for the growth of this OTT business.

The OTT business has sunk video businesses including the traditional pay-TV revenues (cable, satellite, and telco-based services) dropping 5% to $76 billion in 2024 (from $99 billion in 2019; Likewise it has affected the traditional Cinema hall business as well were theatrical box office businesses are down by 3% to $8 billion (from $11 billion in 2019); and home video, losing 6% to $4 billion from $9 billion. To be frank we have been watching movies since the early 1900s, television since the 1940s, and the digital streaming platforms since 2010 in India. While I’m sure 2019 was a momentous year for India for many reasons, but to our surprise that this one phenomenon that has possibly gone unnoticed is – a four-year-old industry overtaking a 100-year-old industry in market size.
