New Innovation: Smart App and Pillow Set Avoids Restless Sleep and Offers One Solution for Everyone — Developed by Several Times Winner of 'Innovation Award for Ergonomics'

aiLigner Release
'aiLigner \u2014 active sleep improvement' released

MUNICH, August 24, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Seventy percent of employees suffer from poor sleep. "aiLigner — active sleep improvement" is the new brand of Third of Life. The German manufacturer of sleep-optimized products from Munich takes up this fight and presents an innovative sleep set with a free app and two revolutionary pillows designed for optimal sleep ergonomics. The promise: Say goodbye to neck tension and restless sleep. Its pre-order period just started.

Most of the problems that come up during sleep and cause restless nights are due to an unergonomic sleeping posture. People sleep on unsuitable pillows and mattresses. This makes it nearly impossible to ensure a naturally ergonomic posture during sleep. Restless sleep has a negative influence on regeneration and causes tension in the neck and back, up to severe pain.

The free aiLigner app (download) allows the user to see pictures of the body and the sleep posture and analyze them. The user gets a detailed report that explains where tension and restless sleep come from. Users also get recommendations on how to sleep as ergonomically as possible, which is accurate to the inch.

This is where aiLigner pillows come in. With the innovative height-adjustable pillow, the neck and head can be optimally supported. It's made of three layers of different heights, which are removable from the cover. This allows more than 10 different height variations. The pillow is made of high-quality visco foam, which is considered the highest standard in the pillow industry.

To also perfectly support the body, especially the spine, in bed, the set also consists of the "Supporter Pad." This body support pillow, which can be inserted into the mattress cover, supports certain parts of the body. With the modular design, it allows users to improve the sleep setup for every body type.

Both pillows in combination ensure optimal sleep and prevent tension but are also available separately.

aiLigner has launched its pre-order and is offering attractive early-bird deals for the launch.

Hanno Deyle and Frieder Kuhn, the founders and managing directors of Third of Life — a successful and established German manufacturer (Multi Comparison Test winner and winner of the "Prize for Innovation in Ergonomics") of a wide range of innovative sleep-optimized products, have teamed up for aiLigner with leading sleep performance coach Nick Littlehales, who has coached soccer clubs, such as Real Madrid, in sleeping and is the bestselling author of "Sleep — Like a Pro."

Markus Kamps has also joined the team as an advisor and inventor. He is one of the biggest German sleep experts, a TV host, and a bestselling author.

The company promises optimal sleep and, as a result, the best possible regeneration. To learn more, please visit our release campaign: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ailigner/ailigner-active-sleep-improvement.

assisTek Announces Updated CORE Platform Release for Fall 2023

PA-based clinical technology provider assisTek has announced new features to its upcoming software release, including AI Integration, a Proprietary OS, SSO & Remote Provisioning, to add to its growing suite of eCOA & ePRO solutions.

DOYLESTOWN, Pa., August 24, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Pennsylvania-based Clinical Technology company assisTek is thrilled to announce their next-generation, advanced software platform designed to further streamline their current eCOA (electronic Clinical Outcome Assessments) and ePRO (electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes) solutions.

This cutting-edge platform adds an array of features and updates, including Single Sign-On (SSO), an AI-powered configurator, remote device provisioning for enhanced reusability, and a Proprietary Custom Operating System.

Single Sign-On (SSO): The new platform places security at the forefront with the integration of Single Sign-On functionality. This allows users to access multiple applications with a single set of credentials, instead of multiple logins for multiple systems.

AI-Powered Configurator: The AI-powered configurator sets a new benchmark for customization within eCOA and ePRO solutions. This technology recommends optimal settings based on user inputs, ensuring that studies are designed with precision and efficiency. This allows users to adapt the platform to their unique needs without the need for complex coding or technical expertise.

Remote Provisioning of Devices for Reuse: Optimizing resources and reducing waste are paramount considerations in healthcare solutions. The upgraded platform introduces remote provisioning of devices, enabling efficient device management and reusability across multiple studies. This not only contributes to cost savings but also minimizes the environmental impact associated with traditional single-use devices by allowing easy reconfiguration and reuse of devices.

Proprietary Custom OS: Building on a commitment to innovation, this proprietary OS is purpose-built to optimize the performance, security, and reliability of the platform, thus delivering a seamless user experience. By designing an OS tailored to the unique demands of eCOA and ePRO applications, they can ensure that every aspect of the software functions cohesively and efficiently.

"We are excited to unveil this game-changing software platform that redefines how eCOA and ePRO solutions are experienced," said Richard Gastineau, Chief Executive Officer at assisTek. "By combining each of these unique enhancements into our custom operating system, we are empowering study teams and patients to elevate their data collection processes and continue on our goal of patient engagement and ease of use."

AssisTek will be releasing this updated platform in the Fall of 2023.

A League of Their Own co-creator reacts to cancellation and shares hopes for season 2

A League of Their Own co-creator Will Graham reacts to cancellation and shares hopes for season 2 of the series.

Prime Video’s reimagining of Penny Marshall’s beloved 1992 classic A League of Their Own had been renewed for a second season, but fans were shocked when the streaming service reversed the renewal last week. Will Graham, who co-created A League of Their Own with Abbi Jacobson, took to X/Twitter to discuss the impact of the cancellation and his hopes for season 2.

“Making this show is so hard and so great,” Will Graham wrote. “There’s quite a bit to say about what’s been hard, but at this point that’s in the past. Of course, if we have an avenue to do it well, we will continue the show, and I love seeing the noise you’re making in support of that. The noise matters!“

Even if A League of Their Own doesn’t return for season 2 on Prime Video or another platform, Graham remains pround of the impact the series has had on the LGBTQIA+ community. “If we don’t find a good path forward, I will still know that League did what it came here to do and, in its own small way, changed the world,” Graham said. “And that’s because of all of you, and the light you continue to shine on the show — how you let it matter to you, how you let it become a mirror, how you let it change you. I’ve never experienced a response to a television show that’s as deep, personal, creative and meaningful as what the fans have done with League.”

Graham continued, “But, in a time when all queer people are personally and politically under attack across the country and HRC has declared a ‘state of emergency,’ my biggest fear is that the many queer fans of League will take this reversal as one more invalidation, one more blow, one more effect of the general politicization of our identities,” Graham went on. “In case anyone needs to hear it: You are not small, niche, modest, off-putting or marginal, and neither are your stories… We are still fighting for League. But whether we win or lose this one, I’m so proud.“

The reason for the cancellation has been has been blamed on the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike, which co-creator and star Abbi Jacobson called “bulls**t and cowardly.” A League of Their Own widened the lens of the original movie to tell the story of an entire generation of women who dreamed of playing professional baseball, both in the All-American Girls Professional League and outside of it.

David Ayer feels he has “nothing to show” for writing The Fast and the Furious

David Ayer feels he has “nothing to show” for writing The Fast and the Furious, the first installment of the billion dollar franchise.

If you’re like me, you may have forgotten that David Ayer had a hand in writing The Fast and the Furious. However, Ayer definitely hasn’t forgotten as he has “nothing to show” for writing the first installment of what became a multi-billion dollar blockbuster franchise.

David Ayer spoke on Jon Bernthal’s Real Ones podcast to discuss his part in The Fast and the Furious. “Biggest franchise in Hollywood, and I don’t have any of it,” Ayer said. “I got nothing to show for it, nothing, because of the way the business works.” The film was based on Racer X, a Vibe magazine article by Ken Li. Gary Scott Thompson and Erik Bergquist wrote the initial drafts, but David Ayer was brought in to rewrite it.

“When I got that script, that s— was set in New York, it was all Italian kids, right?” Ayer said. “I’m like, ‘Bro, I’m not gonna take it unless I can set it in L.A. and make it look like the people I know in L.A., right?’ So then I started, like, writing in people of color, and writing in the street stuff, and writing in the culture, and no one knew s— about street racing at the time.” Ayer continued: “I went to a shop in the Valley and met with like the first guys that were doing the hacking of the fuel curves for the injectors and stuff like that, and they had just figured it out and they were showing it, and I’m like, ‘Oh f— yeah, I’m gonna put that in the movie.’“

David Ayer feels that most people believe that he “didn’t do s**t” on the franchise. “It’s like people hijack narratives, control narratives, create narratives to empower themselves, right?” Ayer said. “And because I was always an outsider and because, like, I don’t go to the f—ing parties. I don’t go to the meals, I don’t do any of that stuff. The people that did were able to control and manage narratives because they’re socialized in that part of the problem. I was never socialized in that part of the problem so I was always like the dark, creative dude, beware.“

Following the release of Fast X earlier this year, we’ve got several more Fast & Furious movies to look forward to, including Fast X – Part Two and anther spinoff focusing on Dwayne Johnson’s character.

Colossal X Tony Hawk’s Skatepark Hero Announces Winners, Raises 8,498.50 Benefiting DTCare + The Skatepark Project

Michael Manion Wins Tony Hawk's Skatepark Hero
Colossal Raises Over $768K Benefiting The Skatepark Project

PHOENIX, August 23, 2023 (Newswire.com) - In an electrifying display of skill, passion, and camaraderie, the global skateboarding community united under the banner of Colossal's Tony Hawk's Skatepark Hero. This extraordinary online competition wasn't merely a showcase of tricks, but a celebration of creativity, purpose, and philanthropy.

Grand Prize Winner

The "People's Choice" winner, selected by public voting, was Michael Manion, a lifelong skateboarder who discovered a passion for helping open skateparks within his local community in Southern Georgia. Manion looks up to Hawk as someone who paved the way for him to do what he loves. Just like Hawk, who blazed a trail for skateboarders worldwide, Manion's dedication to taking the title exemplifies the profound impact skateboarding can have on individuals and communities.

Also Pretty Awesome

Robert Zamora secured the coveted "Tony's Pick" title. Hawk himself plucked Zamora from the ranks of contenders, captivated not only by the technical finesse of his boardslide trick but also by the artful synchronization of his moves to a perfectly curated musical backdrop. Zamora's attention to detail and artistic flair captured the essence of the competition's spirit, highlighting how skateboarding transcends the physical and becomes an art form that resonates deeply.

The Donation

Skatepark Hero was a fundraiser powered by Colossal, a global leader in modern giving. The competition raised a staggering $768,498.50, ultimately being granted to support The Skatepark Project, a nonprofit near and dear to Tony Hawk's heart since 2002. The organization's mission is to help underserved communities create safe and inclusive public skateparks for youth.

The competition served as a fundraising campaign for DTCare, a United States 501(c)(3) public charity organization, which granted donations to The Skatepark Project.

About Colossal

Colossal is the global leader in online competitions and one of the most effective fundraising platforms available for charities that lack the bandwidth to operate large-scale campaigns. While offering extraordinary opportunities to men and women worldwide, each online fundraising competition operated by Colossal has become a successful method of fundraising for nonprofits.

About The Skatepark Project

Founded by Tony Hawk, The Skatepark Project (TSP) is a nonprofit organization working to increase access to outdoor recreation and free play through the creation of safe and inclusive community skateparks. TSP provides the resources, advocacy skills, grants and fellowship programs that guide skaters in creating their own community skateparks, from conception through construction. This is a collaborative process between skaters and city authorities to invest in capital improvements that will enrich a community for decades. The Skatepark Project's grant programs have awarded over $11 million to help fund nearly 700 public skateparks in all 50 states, enjoyed by an estimated eight million people annually.

HHS Launches National Sarcopenia Awareness Campaign

WASHINGTON, August 23, 2023 (Newswire.com) - The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office on Women's Health (OWH) has launched a new nationwide campaign, "Stronger than Sarcopenia," [saar-ko-pee-ni-uh], to raise awareness of sarcopenia in women, a condition characterized by loss of muscle mass, strength, and function in adults 65 and older. Sarcopenia can significantly decrease a person's quality of life and lead to other health problems, including an increased risk of debilitating falls and fractures.

Studies have found a nationwide decline in physical activity in recent years due to changes in lifestyle during the COVID-19 pandemic. Sarcopenia is often made worse by a lack of physical activity. "As our understanding of sarcopenia has evolved, we have continued to learn more about the causes and effects of the condition. It's important that we keep women and health care professionals abreast of the latest information to help ensure the best care and outcome for patients," said ADM Rachel L. Levine, M.D., Assistant Secretary for Health, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

To better prepare health care professionals to identify and address sarcopenia among their patients, OWH collaborated with Medscape Education to develop continuing medical education (CME) credits for health care professionals. This peer-reviewed and accredited CME activity will improve health care professionals' knowledge and skills related to the screening, evaluation, treatment, and management of sarcopenia.

"The public is likely familiar with bone health disorders like osteoporosis and osteopenia, but muscle health disorders like sarcopenia can be equally as impactful on women's abilities to maintain function and mobility as they age," said Deputy Assistant Secretary for Women's Health Dr. Dorothy Fink.

Studies show that more than 45% of the older U.S. population is affected by sarcopenia, with millions of younger adults at risk for developing it later in life. OWH's "Stronger than Sarcopenia" campaign encourages women to speak to their health care professionals about sarcopenia and for health care professionals to screen for the condition and provide proper treatment if needed.

To help spread that message, OWH has created a toolkit with information and resources and formed a network of public and private sector collaborators.

Additional information about "Stronger than Sarcopenia" is available online at www.womenshealth.gov/sarcopenia.

Update: Sean Tuohy responds to Michael Oher allegations that the family never adopted him & exploited him for millions after The Blind Side

Michael Oher, whose story was told in The Blind Side, alleges that the Tuohy family never actually adopted him & exploited him for millions.

Update: Sean Tuohy has responded to the allegations made by Michael Oher that he and his family tricked Oher into a conservatorship and made millions off of the success of The Blind Side.

Sean Tuohy told the Daily Memphian that the conservatorship came about because they were told they couldn’t legally adopt anyone over the age of 18. “We contacted lawyers who had told us that we couldn’t adopt over the age of 18; the only thing we could do was to have a conservatorship,” Tuohy said. “We were so concerned it was on the up-and-up that we made sure the biological mother came to court.” He added that he’d “of course” end the conservatorship if that’s what Michael Oher wanted.

When it comes to the alleged millions made from The Blind Side, Sean Tuohy said that they didn’t make any money off the movie aside from what book author Michael Lewis shared with them. “We didn’t make any money off the movie,” Tuohy said. “Well, Michael Lewis [‘The Blind Side’ book author] gave us half of his share. Everybody in the family got an equal share, including Michael. It was about $14,000, each.” I’m sure we haven’t heard the last of this story.

Original article follows:

The Blind Side told the story of Michael Oher, a homeless and traumatized Black teenager who becomes an All-American football player and first-round NFL draft pick with the help of his caring adoptive parents played by Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw. The feel-good movie was a huge success in 2009, with Bullock even winning the Academy Award for Best Actress, but the truth seems to be much darker.

ESPN reports that Michael Oher has filed a 14-page petition in a Tennessee probate court that alleges that Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy never legally adopted him. Not only that but they also tricked him into signing a document making them his conservators. The pair allegedly used this power to make a deal which earned them and their two biological children millions of dollars in royalties from The Blind Side while Michael Oher got nothing. For the record, The Blind Side grossed $309 million worldwide on a reported $29 million budget.

“The lie of Michael’s adoption is one upon which Co-Conservators Leigh Anne Tuohy and Sean Tuohy have enriched themselves at the expense of their Ward, the undersigned Michael Oher,” the legal filing says. “Michael Oher discovered this lie to his chagrin and embarrassment in February of 2023, when he learned that the Conservatorship to which he consented on the basis that doing so would make him a member of the Tuohy family, in fact provided him no familial relationship with the Tuohys.“

The petition is seeking to end the Tuohys’ conservatorship over Michael Oher and stop them from using his name and likeness. It also wants a full accounting of money earned and for Oher to be paid his fair share. “Since at least August of 2004, Conservators have allowed Michael, specifically, and the public, generally, to believe that Conservators adopted Michael and have used that untruth to gain financial advantages for themselves and the foundations which they own or which they exercise control,” the petition says. “All monies made in said manner should in all conscience and equity be disgorged and paid over to the said ward, Michael Oher.” In a 2007 contract, Oher seemingly signed away the life rights to his story “without any payment whatsoever,” but the filing states that he “has no recollection of signing that contract, and even if he did, no one explained its implications to him.“

The Tuohy family hasn’t yet responded to the allegations, but their attorney, Steve Farese, said that they would be filing a legal response in the coming weeks.
