Fam Organics Revolutionizing CBD Industry with Elevated Standards

AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Only two months since its May debut, Fam Organics has cemented itself as an emerging leader in the CBD market with its USDA certified organic oils and topicals. The new product line drew immediate interest, due to the company’s superior standards, exhaustive research and third-party lab testing. From doctors to families, Fam Organics has had an immediate impact on the lives of those suffering from chronic ailments that remained incurable until now.

AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Only two months since its May debut, Fam Organics has cemented itself as an emerging leader in the CBD market with its USDA certified organic oils and topicals. The new product line drew immediate interest, due to the company’s superior standards, exhaustive research and third-party lab testing. From doctors to families, Fam Organics has had an immediate impact on the lives of those suffering from chronic ailments that remained incurable until now.

«For 11 years, I’ve had trouble falling asleep,» said 47-year-old Jordan Casas. «I’ve tried over-the-counter sleeping aids, but had a hard time waking up. Taking Fam Organics CBD drops one hour before bed made all the difference in the world. Fam Organics has changed my life.»

Casas was so thrilled with the results that she encouraged her 20-year-old daughter, 67-year-old father and a family friend to try it – a true testament to the remarkable trust that comes with this product. Suffering from poor sleep and anxiety, Casas’ daughter has felt both ailments subside. Likewise, her father and family friend experienced positive change with sleep issues, anxiety, high blood pressure and sore muscles.

Dr. Nathan Barrientez, a chiropractor in Bee Cave, Texas, has suffered from wrist pain due to working with patients. He attempted to rehabilitate the pain himself, but never with success.

«When my wrists give me issues, I use Fam Organics topical cream which not only alleviates the pain, but also helps with joint issues. I’ve also started using CBD oil every morning to help with back stiffness that comes with adjusting patients all day, as well as before bed which has resulted in great sleep.»

Like Casas, Dr. Barrientez has such trust in Fam Organics that he shared it with his fiancée for lower back pain and future father-in-law for elbow pain. Perhaps the biggest testimony to his faith in the product is that he has recommended it to multiple patients – specifically those experiencing neck pain, with each reporting the topical cream helps take the «sharp edge» off.

Fam Organics currently has three CBD drops of various milligram sizes as well as a creamy salve. All products utilize certified USDA organic hemp, with six third-party tests conducted on every batch by an unbiased, accredited laboratory to ensure the highest standards.

In Takeout: The Documentary, Emmy-nominated filmmaker Michal Siewierski has embarked on an audacious journey to expose the real reasons behind the Amazon forest fires and the alarming rate of deforestation in Brazil, the world’s largest exporter of beef. Takeout is now available on Amazon and iTunes.

«Mainstream media coverage of the catastrophic destruction of the Amazon doesn’t paint the full picture,» said Siewierski. «With Takeout, I wanted to show how the choices we make about what we eat and consume thousands of miles away directly impact the rainforest.»

The film — produced along with music icon and activist, Moby, and entrepreneur and activist Peter Eastwood — highlights how corporate greed, global food consumption, and political corruption create conditions that are irreparably harming our ecosystem.

Siborg Presents LCR-Reader MPA at Nepcon Asia in Shenzhen

WATERLOO, Ontario, Aug. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — LCR-Reader-MPA was introduced in 2019 as an affordable, multi-purpose Digital Multimeter. Since then, Siborg has attended events to display the device and provide a hands-on experience for customers. At Nepcon Asia in Shenzhen, Siborg drew…

WATERLOO, Ontario, Aug. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — LCR-Reader-MPA was introduced in 2019 as an affordable, multi-purpose Digital Multimeter. Since then, Siborg has attended events to display the device and provide a hands-on experience for customers. At Nepcon Asia in Shenzhen, Siborg drew attention while presenting the LCR-Reader-MPA; the devices’ ability to quickly and accurately test components showed great enthusiasm. In that case Siborg partnered with a Chinese company based in Shenzhen, AI-ROX Polytronics, representing Siborg in China.

The LCR-Reader-MPA is a lightweight alternative to bench-type LCR/ESR meters. The MPA is able to determine the type of component and the best test parameters before measuring with a 0.1% basic accuracy. The device does most of the work; when in automatic mode, the MPA will do all the guesswork, and display only highly accurate measurement results on the OLED display, including any secondary values. Easy Short/Open calibration of the device significantly simplifies the removal of parasitic tweezer impedance.

Nepcon Asia in Shenzhen showed great interest in the device. Many manufacturers come to the show looking for new and exciting technology; many were enthusiastic about the ability to test unknown components with speed and accuracy. But most were excited about the large range of test options available on the device.

«There was definitely a buzz from the audience,» said Michael Obrecht, Director of Siborg Systems Inc., «people were excited about fast and accurate measurements; no set-up was also mentioned a lot. When we started presenting the device and mentioned that there would be a Bluetooth model in the future, people really got excited. Major manufacturing companies from Shenzhen were there and spoke highly of the ability to remotely record test measurements in real-time. This is a very practical ability for quality control.»

Features on LCR-Reader-MPA:

  • Test frequency 100, 120 Hz, 1, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 75 and 100 kHz
  • 0.1% Basic accuracy
  • Manual and full automatic LCR, ESR, LED/Diode testing
  • Easy Open/Short calibration and offset removal
  • 3.2 Volt LED test voltage
  • Test Signal Reduction to 0.1V for in-circuit measurements
  • Test Signal levels of 0.1, 0.5 and 1 Vrms
  • NIST Traceable Calibration Certificate
  • Large and Super Large Capacitance testing to 640 mF
  • Signal Generator with Sine wave up to 100 kHz
  • Li-Poly battery with micro-USB charging
  • 1 oz. weight
  • Gold-plated test leads

LCR-Reader was introduced in 2014 as a budget alternative to other tweezer-multimeters with a 0.5% basic accuracy and the ability to change only the test mode. In 2017, Siborg released the LCR-Reader-MP as a device between Smart Tweezers meters and LCR-Reader; this model offered a 0.1% basic accuracy and more features, including an oscilloscope mode.

There are now three models of LCR-Reader-MPA: the base MPA model, the MPAL with lower range of test frequencies, and LCR-Reader-MPA BT with Bluetooth. The Bluetooth model can connect to PC and Android and automatically records measurement data remotely in real-time. Users are able to save the measurement results to a file or database. Profiles can also be set to automatically grant a pass/fail depending on the parameters set, if a component does not reach these parameters, it is granted a fail.

Siborg’s devices are available in their online LCR-Reader Store, along with other test equipment and many accessories and parts. Some of the other test equipment available is the Kelvin Probe Connector kit that allows any LCR-Reader, MPA or Smart Tweezers device as a probe station. Siborg offers many of their products on their Amazon sales channels in Europe and North America.

Africare Commemorates Its 50th Anniversary With Planned Sunset Of All U.S. Operations And Assisting In Standing Up A New «PanAfricare» On The Continent

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Crowning an impressive fifty-year legacy of high-impact programming within Africa, the Africare Board of Directors and President & CEO Robert L. Mallett today announced both the planned cessation of Africare operations in the US and the endorsement of a newly created independent entity,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Crowning an impressive fifty-year legacy of high-impact programming within Africa, the Africare Board of Directors and President & CEO Robert L. Mallett today announced both the planned cessation of Africare operations in the US and the endorsement of a newly created independent entity, «PanAfricare» based in Senegal, West Africa. The birth of PanAfricare will coincide with the planned sunset of Africare. The new PanAfricare has established its own board of directors and will operate autonomously from the existing organization. Africare will transition its entire portfolio of projects to PanAfricare.  As the legacy Africare closes its operations, a new «Friends of PanAfricare» has also been established.  Its sole, independent purpose will be to support the new PanAfricare and other organizations with similar missions in sub-Saharan Africa with fundraising from donors who support the mission of Africare.

Upon inception, PanAfricare can demonstrate extensive reach with a presence in each region of Sub-Saharan Africa  — Angola, Burkina Faso, Chad, Nigeria, Kenya, Zimbabwe and, of course, Senegal where the new PanAfricare headquarters will be based. Programs are within the core competencies of legacy Africare and the new PanAfricare, including: Agriculture, Nutrition, Health, Women’s and Youth Empowerment.

«It has been my great honor to serve as a steward of Africare’s enormous impact of transforming lives in Africa – from agricultural innovation, food security and nutrition to empowering women and youth.  Now is simply the right time to pass this baton of stewardship not only to the capable Gorgui Diallo and the talented field staff – but to the entire continent of Africa via the new PanAfricare. I have great confidence that governments and donors committed to capacity building will take note and support this bold new venture,» said President & CEO Robert Mallett

«It was indeed the appropriate moment to dually celebrate Africare’s wonderful legacy while also looking forward to ensure PanAfricare would be in a position to deliver services to the people of Africa,» said Board Chair Stephen D. Cashin. «We are greatly appreciative of all the global ‘Africare alumni’ who have provided their energies and idea capital towards reaching this milestone.» 

«We are also grateful to our many government, international and corporate partners, foundations, sororities, churches and individual donors over this period who have underwritten the delivery of valuable services to the people of Africa.  Africare has long enjoyed a widely diverse base of donor support,» he added.

The new PanAfricare will be headed by the experienced and respected former Africare country director Gorgui Diallo and many talented country-based project teams will join him in this new venture.  «I am humbled, honored and energized to become the inaugural CEO of the new PanAfricare. We appreciate the confidence of existing donors such as Bayer, Exxon Mobil and others who have reauthorized former Africare grants to PanAfricare.  The new PanAfricare is excited about many projects such as nurturing a highly innovative initiative converting mining waste to fertilizer in Chad.» 

Africare is inviting existing staff, dedicated Africare Alumni, donors and all our loyal supporters to adopt the hashtags «#AfricareGoldenYear2020» and «#MyAfricareMemory» on social media and share their sentiments, participation and even photos in support of the collective work in Africa. During the 1970-2020 period, Africare invested approximately $2 billion across 38 African countries.

«#AfricareGoldenYear2020 is dually a recognition of our great fifty-year legacy in Africa while highlighting the promising planned programming on the continent,» said President & CEO Robert Mallett.  «As we are on the ground every day, we increasingly see effective solutions towards uplifting people’s lives developed locally throughout our operating countries vs. imported from the US.  A new autonomous PanAfricare is dedicated to delivering programming which directly benefits people,» Mallett added.

Additional details regarding Africare, Africare House, PanAfricare and past influential leaders such as C. Payne Lucas can be found on Africare’s website at www.africare.org.

Africare was founded in 1970 as a leading non-governmental organization committed to addressing African development  and policy issues by working in partnership with African people to build sustainable, healthy and productive communities.  During its fifty years, it has invested approximately $2 billion in 38 African countries . In 2020, Africare announced a planned sunset of US operations coinciding with the formation of an autonomous new Senegal headquartered entity named PanAfricare.  PanAfricare will continue Africare’ s legacy of implementing programs with a commitment towards ‘improving lives and building futures’  on the African continent.  Africare concurrently also facilitated the formation of the «Friends of PanAfricare» non-profit entity which will support PanAfricare and other organizations with similar missions in sub-Saharan Africa.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Momentus (http://www.momentus.space), provider of in-space transportation services for satellites, today announced a hosting service for customer payloads, providing a platform for in-space demonstrations at a fraction of the cost of designing, building, launching and operating a dedicated smallsat.

Beginning in June of 2021 excess capacity will be made available to hosted payload customers on Momentus’ vehicles for customers’ technology demonstrations, qualifications or short-term experiments. These missions will be self-contained and can be hosted by our Vigoride transfer vehicle from the end of the shuttle logistics mission, to the end of its mission life prior to deorbiting. Two service models are available: Charter and Shuttle Service. The Charter Service will allow payloads to be the sole customer onboard with maximum lifespan, power and data download capacity attributed to the single customer. In the Shuttle Service model, the hosted payload will be a rideshare along with other payloads hosted or deployed from the Vigoride transfer vehicle.

To view full specifications for Hosted Payloads visit https://momentus.docsend.com/view/yfang5zijksh843f

The in-Space collaborative/sharing economy has disruptive ramifications for the industry. By lowering the barriers to entry and increasing the launch cadence, access to space becomes widely affordable for the masses including universities, startups, entrepreneurs and governments. This Satellite-as-a-Service business model sees Momentus providing «white glove» service, with the customer being responsible to furnish the payload. The scientific applications alone raised an industry-wide proof of concept because of the rising need from scientists and environmentalists to monitor climate change. For example, now research institutes can deploy new solar cell technologies, large unfurlable antennas and payloads requiring up to 1 kW of power or up to 300 kg of mass without having to worry about building their own satellite or operating it on orbit.

As a SpaceX rideshare partner, Momentus is manifested on rides to Sun-synchronous and mid-inclined low Earth orbits, where Vigoride will be deployed to access custom deployment altitudes and orbits in space.

Momentus is a Space Transportation and Space Logistics company and a graduate of the prestigious Y Combinator program based in Silicon Valley. Momentus employs new and proprietary technologies, including water plasma propulsion to enable revolutionary low-cost orbital shuttle and charter services. Momentus has already demonstrated its core technology in space and is currently preparing for its next two customer test missions starting later this year.

About Momentus
Momentus is the first company providing in-space transportation services for satellites. The company was founded in 2017 in Santa Clara, CA. Momentus designs and builds transfer vehicles propelled by proprietary water plasma thrusters. The vehicles ferry satellites to a custom orbit after they are delivered by conventional rockets to their initial orbit. Momentus is a 70 person team growing rapidly.

Glances Partners With DreamFactory to Create Internal System APIS for Use in Single Customer Views

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The developers of Glances, the no-code solution that unifies multiple apps with a simplified customer view, have officially announced a partnership with the team at

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The developers of Glances, the no-code solution that unifies multiple apps with a simplified customer view, have officially announced a partnership with the team at DreamFactory, experts in creating secure APIs without code and leading integration strategies.

Working together, Glances and DreamFactory will help businesses seamlessly connect even more of their applications – even out-of-date and hard-to-access internal systems – to achieve the time-saving benefits of a real-time, single view of customer data. The more systems and software businesses can connect with the help of DreamFactory REST APIs, the more powerful Glances will be in helping professionals that work in CRMs, support systems, marketing platforms, and other necessary apps stay in their program of choice, but still gain access to a holistic view of each customer.

Partnership benefits will include the ability to:

  • Enable customers to now connect their internal systems
  • Grow Glances reach so it is compatible across more platforms
  • Save time and boost productivity with more connected software and systems
  • Give DreamFactory customers more value out of creating secure APIs
  • Get covered with 16 different database engines supported
  • Create instant APIs without the need for any code

«Businesses want to easily access a single, more complete view of their customer data. That is hard and extremely expensive to truly do if your data lives in internal or outdated applications that do not have a modern, publicly available API. DreamFactory changes everything. Now our customers can add an API to their systems within minutes, using zero lines of code, and connect them to Glances to achieve the holy grail of a single customer view,» said Jason Eggers, co-founder and CEO of Glances.

An Application Programming Interface (API) defines certain interactions between software programs, such as specific calls or requests for data. According to Forrester* research, «APIs are critical for digital transformation. Beyond their architectural role in app integration, APIs enable new business strategies, rapid business change, broad ecosystem connectivity, and world-class customer engagement.»

After years of helping companies manage their data, DreamFactory saw a desperate need for an affordable solution that took the complexities out of hard-to-master and inconsistent APIs.

«We have seen for years the struggles, high cost, and increasing business risk around building APIs on
top of existing applications. DreamFactory is the optimal no-code solution to instantly build secure APIs, completely eliminating that risk. With the ability to spin up an API for internal applications in just minutes and layer granular security controls, DreamFactory brings even more value to customers as they are then able to leverage world-class, API-based tools such as Glances,» noted Jason, CTO and Chief Architect of DreamFactory.

Glances was created to be a user-friendly standout in the Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) industry because it unifies customer data from numerous applications without the need for any coding, data syncing, or scheduling jobs. DreamFactory is the perfect partner because it enables Glances to expand its reach to even more systems – specifically those that were formally internal only, archaic, or did not have a public API to access.

«Providing a no-code solution to integrations is extremely important to the success of any Customer Data Platform (CDP) project. Having a singular source of truth is more important than ever. However, the cost and time investment has always been too out of reach for the vast majority of businesses out there. We built Glances to bring what was once only attainable by enterprise companies to the masses. DreamFactory takes that to a whole new level by making any internal application available to plug-and-play with no-code needed, just like for Glances. Within minutes you can have a true CDP at your fingertips,» said Chad Hutchins, co-founder and CTO of Glances.

Ultimately, Glances works to empower users with immediate access to the most updated customer information, exactly when and where they need it. DreamFactory helps expand the options of connected apps for Glances, so users can view their crucial customer data without tab switching, searching, and clicking around to find it. New users to Glances can take advantage of its DreamFactory partnership by requesting APIs to be built for any company system that is currently not compatible.

In this month’s cover feature, we speak to Ciara Mullan, VP of Transition and Transformation at renowned IT services provider T-Systems. Mullan informs us about what it takes to implement transformation projects in such challenging times as we are now in.

Mullan believes her role delivering transformation requires a specific culture to be implemented. «We’re transforming our tools and our operations,» she says. «That means having programmes in place, being of an open mindset and working with people that share our culture, on a cultural transformation. That is leading to a focus on reducing complexity, optimising speed and giving the right focus to our customers.»

We also hear from SAP’s Lorraine Longato and Nicholas Nicoloudis, who inform us on the topic of human-centric innovation and what it means to use technology to change lives..
