An act of friendship toward new teammates has turned into a full-fledged philanthropic endeavor for Cincinnati Bengals player Ted Karras. Fans and local media have quickly taken notice of Karras and other players wearing new "Cincy" hats in the locker room. Starting tonight at 7 p.m. EST, the hats are being made available to the public for the first time.
"The Cincy Hat" will be sold online, with the proceeds going to the Village of Merici in Indianapolis. The organization provides direct support services, learning opportunities, and independent living through partnerships with various developers. The Village of Merici currently supports more than 75 people throughout Indianapolis with a goal of self-reliance.
"The hats were originally a fun gift for my new teammates through a family friend's golf supply business," Karras says. "I figured everyone loves to get a piece of gear, and the response from my teammates, Bengal fans, and media members was extraordinary. The demand for the hats grew rapidly thanks to my teammates wearing them in interviews, and we decided to sell them, but it had to benefit Village of Merici."
Karras' involvement with Village of Merici is thanks to childhood friend Matt Renie. Karras and Renie were high school classmates at Cathedral High School in Indianapolis.
"Ted grew up as a family friend observing his friend's brother who has intellectual and developmental disabilities," says Colleen Renie, Executive Director of Village of Merici. "Ted also has a family member with autism. He saw the potential in individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their desire to live independently as they grew up."
There are currently three hats available, with a fourth in the works. The hats retail for $35 each, and customers can choose from black, orange or white. The fourth hat will be white with a black logo.
The funds will go to supporting the Village of Merici programs that teach and support individuals in independent living skills to enable them to be successful.
"I am so grateful that a fun gift and project has found a special purpose," Karras says. "It's a great hat with an awesome design that I hope can become the unofficial hat of the Bengals. The Village of Merici is a very special place that does so much good. Any way I can ever help their cause is a special opportunity for me."
To purchase a hat, visit thecincyhat.com. The website also offers a link for donations for Village of Merici. For more information regarding Village of Merici, visit villageofmerici.org or call Karyl Davis, Director of Development, at 317-601-0513.

Incredible discounts offered on doctor-recommended TV listening systems, headsets and speakers during its weeklong Black Friday sale
SPRING VALLEY, Calif. - November 22, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
There may be no battle more contested over the holidays than the volume of a living room television.
But thanks to an innovative television listening solution and a weeklong Black Friday sale, this year's holidays may sound a bit clearer and less jarring to others in homes across the U.S. and beyond.
TV Ears® Doctor Recommended TV Listening Systems & Headsets is pleased to announce from midnight Wednesday, Nov. 23 to 11:59 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 30, all orders are eligible for a full 35 percent off of regular price using the promo code THANKS35.
"It is gratifying to be able to offer our TV listening systems this holiday season at a record low price," said Nino Wehbe, TV Ears general manager. "Since 1998, we have been working to help millions of customers enjoy their favorite television programs, news and sports. With this offer, we look forward to helping countless more."
Featured in AARP Magazine, the easy-to-use tool has a five-year warranty and works with all hearing types, he said.
"While new technologies come out every day, they are often difficult to use and often fail to deliver the crisp and clear volume needed to positively impact television watching," Wehbe said. "Our solution is different. We specifically designed TV Ears to be a simple solution that allows anyone to enjoy watching television."
He said Bluetooth headphones and hearing aids are notoriously unreliable for this purpose and can create an unrewarding experience.
"With TV Ears, there is no complicated pairing process required to use it correctly," Wehbe said. "Unlike rivals, TV Ears products provide an enjoyable and hassle-free TV listening experience without relying on Bluetooth and its inconsistent sound quality."
TV Ears utilize proprietary Voice Clarifying Technology to create clear, real-time television audio for the wearer.
"For more than 20 years, TV Ears has assisted people in hearing television clearly without disturbing others," Wehbe said. "Using Voice Clarifying Circuitry, TV Ears manufactures and sells voice-clarifying television headphones and speakers. This proprietary audio curve makes television dialogue clearer while background noise, such as music and sound effects, is reduced."
"With TV Ears' Speed of Light Infrared Technology (SoLIT) and 'wall-breaking' 5.8 GHz technology, television audio can be distributed throughout the house to compatible headsets and speakers," he continued. "And with a max volume of 120 decibels, TV Ears is twice as loud as other systems, with no pairing required."
"For those parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles dealing with hearing loss, being able to connect with others through entertainment like music and television can mean everything," Wehbe said. "With our Black Friday deal, you can give the gift of gathering and celebration this year, and at a low cost."

SAN FRANCISCO - November 22, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Arterys, developer of the world's first internet platform for medical imaging, now part of Tempus, announced its organic growth of products and partnerships to serve radiologists with even faster and more accurate diagnostic tools.
"Arterys is at a pivotal point in time in which we are really uniquely positioned to scale our solutions," said Arterys CEO John Axerio-Cilies. "We're excited to introduce new partnerships and product updates that will support physicians in delivering personalized, data-driven patient care."
Arterys Breast AI gains traction concluding Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Arterys' Breast AI product has seen rapid expansion, with several new customers recently adopting the cloud-based solution and many more committed to 2023.
Three recent technology adopters chose Arterys for different reasons:
In Salina, Kansas, Arterys Breast AI's SaaS model allowed the site to implement advanced technology with an operational budget.
In Florida, a national breast company was excited by the breast triage worklist combined with the CAD case score results, helping to direct patients to advanced diagnostic imaging immediately — they will expand the solution over multiple sites nationwide over the next year
A third site in Montana found that Arterys was agnostic to multiple gantry vendors and that the cloud solution could be added to the new gantry and deployed to older ones without capital equipment.
Arterys enhances ecosystem with new strategic partnerships
InferVision — Arterys and InferVision have partnered to offer an optimized AI-driven lung oncology workflow with FDA-cleared detection, segmentation, and follow-up. Using the partnership's automated selection of nodule types and automated Lung-rads scoring and RECIST increases reporting efficiency.
DeepLook Medical — Arterys and DeepLook Medical have joined forces to offer physicians efficiency and remove subjectivity from their oncology workflow. DeepLook's FDA-cleared DL Precise™ automated segmentation tool has been added to the Arterys radiology platform. Precise measurements are crucial to accurately characterize tumors for cancer treatment plans, as well as to assess the tumor's growth rate over time or tumor shrinkage in response to therapy. This partnership created a one-click tool to automate the segmentation and measurement of suspicious objects in all imaging modalities, moving one step closer to delivering on a vision of precision medicine and personalized patient care.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) — Arterys is working with AWS, related to the recently announced Amazon HealthLake Imaging, a new HIPAA-eligible capability for storing, sharing, and analyzing medical images at petabyte scale, now available in preview. As an AWS Partner, Arterys is leveraging HealthLake Imaging to enhance performance and responsiveness across its applications, such as Lung AI, which helps physicians analyze and track lung nodules. Arterys will demonstrate the use of HealthLake Imaging in the AWS booth (#6958) during RSNA.
HealthLake Imaging enables access to medical imaging data with sub-second image retrieval latencies at scale powered by cloud-native APIs and applications from AWS Partners. Providers eliminate the burden of infrastructure management and enable AI/ML to drive increased value from imaging data with support from other services. This allows providers to focus resources on meeting the growing demands of clinical workflows and delivering high-quality patient care.
Arterys has been recently acquired by Tempus, a technology company advancing precision medicine through the practical application of AI. Launched in 2015, the company's platform helps enable physicians to make near real-time, data-driven decisions to deliver personalized patient care and, in parallel, facilitates discovery, development, and delivery of optimal therapeutics to enable doctors to make data-driven treatment decisions, drug companies to make better drugs, and patients to live longer and healthier lives.

Next-generation proteomics technology made available to the biotech and pharmaceutical industry through the acquisition of Methuselah Health by leading R&D services provider, RxCelerate
CAMBRIDGE, England - November 22, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
RxCelerate, a leading international out-sourced drug discovery and development platform, today announced the acquisition of drug discovery company Methuselah Health UK Ltd for an undisclosed sum. Methuselah Health was founded in 2015 to discover drugs for age-related diseases driven by proteomic instability and has developed the world's most powerful proteomics platform to power its discovery efforts.
"Until now, the ProQuant™ proteomics technology has only been available for the internal discovery programs at Methuselah Health," said Jill Reckless, CEO at RxCelerate. "But as soon as we saw just how powerful this technology was, we had to add it to our service offering. Through this acquisition, the proprietary ProQuant™ platform will be exclusively available to our clients, giving them access to the best proteomics technology available anywhere."
The development of ProQuant™ was led by David Mosedale, Chief Technical Officer at Methuselah Health since its foundation in 2015. "Proteomics has been an important tool in drug discovery for decades, but existing methods typically focus on the number of proteins identified at the expense of quantitative accuracy. ProQuant™ is a step-change in quantitative accuracy for bottom-up LC-MS-MS-based proteomics, which enables a whole range of applications that are difficult or impossible with existing technology. For example, ProQuant™ can better quantify post-translational modifications, including proteolytic cleavages, in complex protein mixtures, which opens up a new domain for target identification and validation, biomarker discovery and reaction monitoring."
ProQuant™ moves the goalposts for proteomics through proprietary improvements in both the analytical and bioinformatic domains. "The key development," says Mosedale, "was identifying a way to assess quantitative accuracy across the whole proteome simultaneously, even without knowing the true concentration of any of the components. That allowed us to optimize the methodology beyond anything that has been possible before."
ProQuant™ has numerous applications across the drug discovery and development domains. It turbo-charges chemoproteomics during discovery of covalent binders (including protacs), allows the accumulation of post-translational modifications on biologic drugs to be accurately monitored during manufacture, storage and, most importantly, after administration in vivo, and delivers accurate quantitation of protein labelling.
"Unfortunately, many drug developers do not realise the extent to which the poor quantitative accuracy of traditional proteomics has limited its usefulness. ProQuant™ really is a game-changer," explains Mosedale.
"Over the last several years, we have acquired or developed a unique toolkit of cutting-edge technologies to improve drug discovery and development," said Nick Tait, Chief Financial Officer at RxCelerate. "Galaxy™, our platform to discover better monoclonal antibody drugs at RxBiologics, and RxNfinity™, our dynamic chemical space to improve small molecule discovery, deliver best-in-class capabilities to our clients. With the acquisition of Methuselah Health and its ProQuant™ proteomics technology, we have taken another step towards our vision of making the best technologies out there available to everyone."

E Woman is shifting its business model to offer critical aid to single mothers with special needs children.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - November 22, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
E Woman, a social networking platform for women, is pleased to announce its transition to a nonprofit organization to provide critical aid to single mothers who have special needs children. This initiative will start in Uzbekistan, with the goal of expanding globally. While the company will remain a social networking platform as well, it is now expanding its reach so its ability to offer support can be taken to the next level.
In Uzbekistan, women still have limited opportunities to control their own futures due to societal restrictions. In addition, with some having special-needs children, many women are abandoned by their partners and left to fend for themselves. For Amy Shakhlo Karaman, founder and CEO of E Woman and a native of the country, this cause matters deeply.
"As a woman who has experienced the traditions in Uzbekistan first-hand, I recognize it's not always easy to establish your independence given these incredibly difficult circumstances," said Karaman. "At E Woman, we aim to support women in all aspects of their lives and look forward to the opportunity to offer additional aid through our new status as a nonprofit organization."
As E Woman shifts to a nonprofit, it has several upcoming initiatives that aim to provide assistance:
Through its Bright Soul Bracelets program, E Woman is able to travel to Uzbekistan and provide jobs to women by teaching them how to make bracelets. These bracelets are then sold in the U.S., and all profits raised go to single mothers.
In Uzbekistan, E Woman has partnered with the Committee on Women and Gender Equality and the Commission on Ensuring Gender Equality from the Senate of the Oliy Majlis, which is the parliament of the country.
Through the above partnership, E Woman has a goal to build at least five safe houses. The Gender Equality Commission is looking into ways to provide the necessary land to accomplish this mission.
E Woman also plans to serve women facing gender discrimination in Iran and Afghanistan.
In Tennessee, E Woman is working to have 10 female artists from Central Asia come to the U.S. to have a chance to showcase their artwork in a display called The Inside World of Central Asian Women.
The E Woman app was created to serve as an online women's support group and give women a safe place to empathize with others who may be going through similar experiences. It also provides forums for different events and stages in a woman's life, including single moms, working moms, finding work-life balance and coping with a loss.
E Woman is available on www.ewoman.world and offered in every language. Members can join categorized groups anonymously or with their usernames to share their stories and connect in a judgment-free space.
E Woman is a social media platform dedicated to every woman who feels alone. Founded by Amy Shakhlo Karaman, an immigrant who escaped an arranged marriage in Uzbekistan and came to America to build her life from the ground up, this online community allows women around the world to discuss similar struggles. E Woman is now available on www.ewoman.world and offers every language. Members can join categorized groups anonymously or with their usernames to share their stories and connect in a judgment-free space. To learn more, visit www.ewoman.world.

Since 2010, No.3 Gin has been the winner of the World's Best Gin four times and the first gin to win the Supreme Champion Spirit at the International Spirits Challenge naming it The Perfect Gin, featuring a special recipe of six botanicals created by the celebrated Berry Bros & Rudd. The collaborative event has been designed to feed into Miami's thirst to explore and discover the parallels between art and modern expression.
Commenting on the collaboration, Edrington's No.3 Gin said: 'We can't wait to host this fabulous event at Basel 22. ARES Modena's commitment to legacy and their never-ending pursuit to evolve their craft, makes ARES the perfect match to collaborate with No.3 Gin. The collaborations combine the artistic and modern expressions in a way that celebrates uniqueness and where better to unveil this stunning collection than Miami.'
Mo Elarishy, Head of Business Development at ARES Miami, said: 'The shape of a vehicle provides an artist a unique canvas to express their passion and vision. The combination of curves on the exterior body with art can create an emotional influence and arouse desire, it is all about having a meaningful aesthetic feel. Collaborating during Art Basel Miami was the perfect time to showcase Daniela Boo's artwork.'

We know how valuable this program is to improving their health and extending their life, but the biggest challenge continues to be patients showing up and sticking with the program," said Kathy Sturm, VP & Chief Nursing Officer, Davis Health System. "With Recora expanding our cardiac rehab program to a virtual environment, we believe this will increase patient participation and eliminate many of the challenges that have prevented patients from engaging, or even being able to participate, especially in the rural community we serve. Given the assistance and coach provided to each patient enrolled in this virtual program, Recora is set up to help patients overcome technical concerns as well."
Through virtual tools provided to patients and on-demand access to care teams and other resources, the program empowers patients to manage their heart health from home while enabling providers and plans to provide comprehensive cardiac care and strengthen patient relationships. Recora's Cardiac Recovery Program moves beyond 12 weeks of rehabilitation to deliver comprehensive care management that focuses on a patient's overall health and wellness.
Recora currently serves cardiac patients in the U.S. across health systems, health plans and medical groups in urban, suburban and rural communities.
"Davis Health System has taken a critical step forward serving their community in cardiac rehab, and we are proud to partner with them in these efforts," said Recora CEO Abhishek Chandra. "Currently only about 1 in 4 eligible patients ever start a center-based program. The addition of a virtual program with an outreach strategy has been shown to engage more patients overall, including a 15% increase in center-based patients."
