Tron: Ares: Cillian Murphy rumored to be reprising Tron: Legacy role

Tron: Ares: Cillian Murphy rumored to be reprising Tron: Legacy role

Oppenheimer star Cillian Murphy rumored to return for Tron: Ares, reprising his Tron: Legacy role of Edward Dillinger Jr.

According to scooper Daniel Richtman via his Patreon, Cillian Murphy is set to reprise his Tron: Legacy role in the upcoming Tron: Ares as the villain. You should consider this to be a rumor for the time being, but Richtman does have a pretty good track record with these scoops.

If it’s been a while since you last watched Tron: Legacy, you might not even remember that Cillian Murphy was in it. He played Edward Dillinger Jr., the head of ENCOM’s software design team and the son of former ENCOM senior executive Ed Dillinger, the character played by David Warner in the original Tron. The role was more of a cameo, but felt like it was setting the stage for something bigger in the next movie.

Jared Leto is still attached to star in Tron: Ares, and Disney has been talking with Joachim Rønning (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales) to direct. A report from earlier in the year claimed that production was looking to get underway in Vancouver this August, but we haven’t heard all that much since.

The road to another Tron movie has been a long one. Even before the release of Tron: Legacy, a third film was in the early stages of development. Disney greenlit the project with Tron: Legacy director Joseph Kosinski set to direct and Garret Hedlund and Olivia Wilde returning, but in 2015, they pulled the plug. Kosinski later suggested that Disney scrapped the sequel because of their new toys — Marvel and Star Wars. “When I made Tron: Legacy, they didn’t own Marvel; they didn’t own Star Wars,” Kosinski said. “We were the play for fantasy and science fiction. And once you’ve got those other things under your umbrella, it makes sense that you’re going to put your money into a known property and not the weird art student with black fingernails in the corner — that was Tron.“

Jared Leto gave an update about the project last year. “I’m a super fan of Tron, and we are working hard on Tron with our incredible partners at Disney,” Leto said. “Just an amazing group of creative people. We’re getting closer. We’re getting closer and closer, and who knows? Something may be [coming] sooner than later.”

Cillian Murphy will next be seen starring as J. Robert Oppenheimer in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, which opens in theaters on July 21st. Would you like to see Cillian Murphy return for Tron: Ares?

Compass Health Center Launches OCD & Complex Anxiety Program for Children in Western Suburbs to Address Youth Mental Health Crisis

Compass Health Center's Oak Brook location has opened its new Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) & Complex Anxiety Program for children ages 8-13.

Oak Brook OCD & Complex Anxiety Program for Children

CHICAGO, May 2, 2023 (Newswire.com) - According to recent data collected by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) between 2016-2019, more than 5.8 million children between the ages of 3-17 in the United States had been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. These numbers have only increased since the start of the pandemic. In response to this need, Compass Health Center's Oak Brook location has opened its new Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) & Complex Anxiety Program for children ages 8-13.

This new program complements Compass's Adolescent program for ages 13-18 and supports children whose OCD and other more complex anxiety symptoms persistently interfere with daily functioning. In children, these diagnoses often present as refusal to leave home or attend school, refusal to participate in the classroom, excessive worry, sleep disturbances, and physical health concerns like chronic headaches and stomachaches.

"Since opening our doors to the child population in the West suburbs, we have seen the continued need for more specialized treatment when it comes to OCD and other anxiety disorders. We are excited to offer a more tailored approach to treating OCD and Anxiety with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Having recently launched this specialty in our Adolescent Program, we have seen improved outcomes with these patients and their families and look forward to offering this to our child patients and families as well," said Katrina Shannon, LMFT, Director of Child and Adolescent Programs, Compass Health Center - Oak Brook.

Compass's evidence-based OCD and Complex Anxiety Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) programming introduces children to exposure therapy, one of the most effective treatments for OCD and other anxiety disorders, such as Separation Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, and Panic Disorder. In addition to attending group and family therapy sessions, children in the program meet with dedicated exposure therapists to address their fears and the avoidance strategies the patients have adopted to manage their fears.

Children are taught to recognize the negative impact these avoidance strategies are having on their lives and are supported in gradually decreasing their avoidance behaviors. As the child slowly comes into contact with their fears, they learn to function in the presence of their fears and eventually to think about their fears differently. As part of Compass's individualized care model, children participate in family therapy with one or more of their family members, allowing for the family to learn how best to support their anxious child and how not to support their avoidance strategies.

Ninety percent of Compass's child program participants successfully complete the program and experience a significant reduction in anxiety symptoms. In addition, 95 percent of children in Compass programming avoid hospitalization due to mental health symptoms.

"We successfully treat these symptoms and diagnoses in our specialty programs for adolescents and adults in Oak Brook and for all ages at our other locations. We are excited to expand these services in a specialized way to children as young as 8 years old and their families in the communities served by our Oak Brook location," said Kerry Lusignan, LCSW, Chief Clinical Officer, Compass Health Center - Oak Brook.

Compass's expert clinical team of masters-level clinicians understands and focuses on the individualized approach to treatment, which helps children in moving towards achieving a meaningful and functional life. Learn more: https://compasshealthcenter.net/

KYT Launches Designer Bags for Diabetics

KYT redefining diabetes by designing an innovative bag range that merges medicine and fashion.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand, May 2, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Diabetics now have their own designer bags to streamline their daily treatment. KYT, which stands for Keeping You Together, has revealed three new contemporary, premium bags purpose-built for the everyday needs of people with diabetes - a chronic condition that the World Health Organization (WHO) says affects 422 million people worldwide.

Crafted with the insights of hundreds of diabetics from around the world, the bags have innovative features, smart layouts, premium materials like gold-rated Italian leather and solid brass hardware, and ethical craftsmanship. A contemporary exterior discreetly hides diabetes supplies like a testing kit, pump consumables, and insulin pens. The bags now available for global pre-order are:

SideKYT: a contemporary crossbody bag that streamlines users' essential diabetes supplies. The bag splits in two: life essentials up front and diabetes equipment out back. A testing station allows blood glucose levels to be tested straight from the bag.

SideKYT+: a larger crossbody built for pump users or those who want to take more equipment or spares.

StarterKYT: a compact case that lets users take their supplies on the sly. The size of a sunglasses case, it smartly locks together with magnets, unfolds completely flat to create a testing station, and then folds back together in a snap.

KYT is also committed to ethical production and materials, and a donation from every bag sold helps diabetes charities get crucial supplies to those in need.

At age 20, Designer & KYT Founder Bridget Scanlan was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. As her pancreas stopped producing insulin, she had to learn to manage multiple blood glucose tests and insulin injections every day. Along with all the equipment that came with it.

"From talking to diabetics around the world, I got universal insights into the daily diabetes struggle," Scanlan says. "It sparked a thought: could smarter design empower people to feel better about dealing with daily treatment? I wanted to redesign diabetes so we could all redefine it."

Combining her background in fashion design and entrepreneurship, Scanlan was inspired to channel her chronic condition to help empower other diabetics by creating designer bags specifically for diabetics.

"Every zip, every angle, every equipment detail has been influenced by the insights gathered from the hundreds of incredible diabetics who have opened up and shared their diabetes stories (and gripes) with me," Scanlan says.

According to WHO, globally 8.5% of adults aged 18 and older have diabetes, making it one of the most prevalent chronic conditions worldwide.

Stanford University research estimates that people managing diabetes make around 180 extra health-related decisions every day to keep themselves safe.

Here is some of the feedback from diabetics using KYT's original Crossbody bag:

"I've been waiting 50 years for a bag like this....it is so easy to 'keep me together.' Pick it up and off I go, and no one knows what I am having to carry around." - Joy, New Zealand Diabetic

"I am loving my KYT for travel! It's such a great bag, I now take it with me whenever I go away." - Megan, London Diabetic

"Cannot be more excited for this amazing bag designed for diabetics. Fully functional & more importantly so stylish!" - Kyoko, Tokyo Diabetic

KYT stands for KEEPING YOU TOGETHER. We're redefining diabetes by redesigning it. With look-good, feel-good, do-good bags designed to help you feel great about doing diabetes on the daily.

Study Reveals the World’s Best Observation Decks for Travelers on a Budget

Travel experts at Omio have analyzed 70 of the world's most popular observation decks and their entrance fees, which reveal the best and most affordable views for budget-conscious travelers. The study includes 8 of the most popular viewing decks in the United States.

Viewing Deck

BERLIN, May 2, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Omio, Europe's leading booking platform for travel, has released a ranking of the world's most affordable observation decks. The study analyzes the entrance fees for the 70 most popular viewing platforms in the world, followed by an offset of the ticket prices against the official height of the building. The result is a well-curated list of the best views for the best price.

In almost every city, observation decks are among the most popular attractions for tourists. This ranking reveals the wide range of ticket prices, starting at $1.14 for the Torre Panorâmica in Curitiba (Brazil) to the Empire State Building in New York City (United States), where the entrance costs around $79.

"Top of Africa" offers the best price for money

The popular viewing platform "Top of Africa" (732ft) on the top floor of the Carlton Centre in Johannesburg offers visitors a unique panoramic view as far as Soweto and the best deal for the money. The entrance fee only costs $1.67 and beats all other observation decks surveyed in the price per foot category ($0.002 per ft). The deck is finally scheduled to reopen in summer 2023.

Table 1: Top 10 best observation decks for travelers on a budget.

	Destination	Observation deck	Height	Ticket	Price per ft.
1	Johannesburg, South Africa	Top of Africa	732ft	$1.67	$0.002
2	Istanbul, Turkey	Istanbul Sapphire	856ft	$2.68	$0.003
3	Curitiba, Brazil	Torre Panorâmica	359ft	$1.14	$0.003
4	Riga, Latvia	Riga TV tower	1,207ft	$3.96	$0.003
5	Cairo, Egypt	Cairo Tower	614ft	$2.14	$0.004
6	Belgrade, Serbia	TV tower Avala	673ft	$2.78	$0.004
7	Plzeň, Czech Republic	Cathedral of St. Bartholomew	338ft	$1.56	$0.005
8	Rio de Janeiro, Brazil	Christ the Redeemer	2,297ft	$14.36	$0.006
9	Barcelona, Spain	Torre de Collserola	945ft	$6.00	$0.006
10	Warsaw, Poland	Palace of Culture and Science	945ft	$5.68	$0.007

From $24 to $79: Observation decks in the US are expensive

The Empire State Building in New York City is probably the most famous observation platform in the world. The viewing deck attracts around 3.5 million visitors per year. The study reveals that visiting a skydeck in the US is rather expensive. The most expensive observation deck is the Empire State Building and a ticket to the 102nd floor costs around $79.

Good that the Big Apple offers plenty of alternatives. The deck of the One World Trade Center only costs about $47 and a ticket to the Top of the Rock observation deck costs about $43.

The Statue of Liberty offers the worst deal for travelers. The monument that includes a viewing deck in the crown is only 305ft tall but one ticket costs $24. A ticket to The Strat in Las Vegas is also around $24 but at least the building is 1,148ft tall.

The best deal for an observation deck in the US is the Willis Tower in Chicago. A ticket to the visitors' floor on top of the 1,450ft-tall building costs only $30.

Nedap iD Cloud will be deployed to enable omnichannel and stock visibility

Swedish fashion retailer Lindex chooses Nedap for large-scale RFID deployment

Groenlo, the Netherlands, May 2, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Nedap (AMS:NEDAP), the global leader in RFID solutions, has been selected by Lindex to deploy Nedap iD Cloud. Lindex aims to increase inventory accuracy, which leads to higher product availability across all channels. The roll-out involves 400+ Lindex-stores across the Nordics, the United Kingdom, and eastern Europe.

As part of the deployment, Nedap will provide Lindex with its iD Cloud platform to help streamline its inventory management and enhance the customer experience. By using RFID, Lindex will be able to more accurately track and manage its inventory, leading to improved stock availability and reduced stock-outs.

By adopting RFID technology, Lindex takes an essential step in its Digital Store Program, which aims to digitize products and processes within the organization. Florian Westerdahl, Head of Technology at Lindex, comments: "As part of our digitalization strategy, we need to uniquely identify each item. This eventually leads to full item visibility throughout our supply chain. We selected Nedap because of its proven track record, both in the Nordics and on a global level. The company's leading technology, pragmatic approach, willingness to truly seek and understand where we want to go to and the clear and transparent model also contributed to our decision to start our RFID journey with Nedap. The unlimited access to RFID data in iD Cloud lays the ideal foundation to optimize our inventory information across all customer touchpoints. This way, we always have the right product available across all sales channels without overstocking, allowing us to meet customer demand sustainably."

The Lindex RFID journey's first step involves increasing stock accuracy and optimizing in-store operations. With 40K -50K items in stores on average, Lindex will significantly lower the time spent counting and refilling the sales floor. Using the iD Cloud app, Lindex store staff receive refill suggestions on their smartphone and will be guided to the item that needs to be picked.

Bruno Bakker, Global Account Executive at Nedap, comments: "The cooperation between Lindex and Nedap is an excellent example of how technology is in the service of people rather than the other way around. We are proud that Lindex is embarking on its RFID journey in partnership with us and will always be ready to help them get the most out of this to maximize product availability across all channels.

About Nedap

Nedap focuses on the development and supply of Technology for Life: technological solutions that make people more comfortable and successful in their professional lives.
