DANA POINT, Calif., Nov. 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TRULẼY INCREDIBLE™ Inc. is building an influential, two-sided products platform with a global reach for buyers and sellers of INCREDIBLE PRODUCTS®. The platform is being created to launch better products and influence purchase decisions by introducing products that are good for people and or our planet, providing distinction and a competitive advantage for product makers, small manufacturers, S.M.B.s and retail merchants. The result elevates brands producing better engagements and experiences, creating an infinite tool and market fit, using brand licensing to form an exclusive multichannel retail merchant and products media network.

With e-commerce and product content exploding, brands are getting lost. Pricing tools are being used in browsers while marketing costs are increasing. More often, inconsistent pricing occurs when improper distribution methods are used, squeezing margins. This trend shortens product lifecycles and reduces future revenue opportunities.

The company is interested in forming partnerships and are currently accepting inquiries to establish an influential global products platform, enhancing the wholesale and retail launch solution by providing intelligent distribution supporting product lifecycles, brand value and margins and attracting better products by offering product makers benefits, resources, representation, and accreditation.

TRULẼY INCREDIBLE™’s platform is different, it extends and integrates across borders, industry and consumer channels. The company is building a broad and “exclusive network” of retailer merchants, publishers, digital media and broadcast channels to produce continual industry and consumer visibility, using innovative and engaging technologies and content syndication to present an INCREDIBLE PRODUCT™ experience.

“Utilizing existing infrastructures and collaborative teams and the latest in technologies to accelerate the formation allows us to swiftly develop into a significant enterprise, reducing customer acquisition costs, improving customer engagements and retention rates, increasing reoccurring revenue and CLV and delivering better products to consumers and increasing retention,” says Eli Bakofsky, CFO

“The intent of our INCREDIBLE PRODUCTS® platform is to become the company that makers of new products seek out first, prior to launching their product into retail channels,” says Dan Cwieka, founder of TRULẼY INCREDIBLE™. When someone creates an INCREDIBLE PRODUCT™, there’s significant value in sales, factoring, licensing, funding, media, advertising and distribution. Original product makers and support groups should receive the benefits and the distinction that comes with inventing an INCREDIBLE PRODUCT™. It’s a reflection of their work, passion and commitment.

Using LinkedIn®, TRULẼY INCREDIBLE™ experienced a great platform firsthand. The company received input, accessed resources, and even validated our brand by connecting with leading collegiate entrepreneurial programs, advertisers, product buyers, financial institutions, crowdfunding platforms, celebrities, influencers, inventors, inventor networks, associations, retailers, publishers, digital media firms, broadcasters and tech firms.

“Innovation is our brand and our networks advantage is unparalleled by its memorable and inherent attributes, fostering expectations used to create first look opportunities, producing both a customer draw and returning customers. Its authoritative, allowing for brand advocacy to influence purchase decisions across industries,” says Matt Genandt co-founder.

China slams Taiwan’s invite to Biden democracy summit, fines Taiwan firms

China on Wednesday hit out at U.S. President Joe Biden’s inclusion of democratic Taiwan in his forthcoming online democracy summit, with no invitation extended to Beijing, while fining Taiwanese companies that have donated to the island’s “secessionist” Democratic Progressive Party (DPP).

“China firmly opposes the U.S.’s invitation to the Taiwan authorities to participate in the so-called Democracy Summit,” foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian told a regular media briefing in Beijing.

“We solemnly urge the U.S. to … stop providing a platform to “Taiwan independence” forces,” Zhao said, adding: “Those who play with fire get burned.”

Zhao’s comments came after China launched a nationwide probe into the activities of companies under Taiwan’s Far Eastern Group, which is a donor to Taiwan’s ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), the party of president Tsai Ing-wen.

Some of the companies had been fined for environmental and other violations, amid a crackdown on “diehard secessionists.”

“We will never allow [companies] that support Taiwan secession … or those that bite the hand that feeds them, to make money [here],” China’s Taiwan Affairs Office spokesman Zhu Fenglian told reporters.

Taiwan secessionists, their affiliated enterprises and their investors must be punished, he said.

Taiwan has never been ruled by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), nor formed part of the People’s Republic of China, and Tsai has repeatedly rejected Beijing’s insistence on “unification” under CCP rule, saying Taiwan’s 23 million people have no wish to give up their democratic way of life or self-rule as the 1911 Republic of China government.

Publicly available figures show that Far Eastern made a number of political donations during the 2000 presidential and legislative election campaigns, including one to pro-China opposition candidate Han Kuo-yu, and not to Tsai.

However, out of 47 donations to Legislative Yuan election candidates, 32 were from the DPP, which strongly supports Taiwan’s continued sovereignty, and which says the island is already independent, rejecting China’s territorial claims.

DPP lawmaker Chen Ting-fei said the idea that Far Eastern is somehow “pro-independence” is laughable.

“If you were to accuse them of that here in Taiwan, people would think you were joking,” Chen told RFA.

Actions likely counterproductive

Fellow DDP lawmaker Cheng Yun-peng, who has received a million Taiwan dollars in donations from Far Eastern, said: “Any business from around the world that does business in China suffers in the same way.”

And opposition KMT lawmaker Lai Shih-pao, who has also received donations from Far Eastern, said such donations were made entirely legally and transparently.

“Everyone at Far Eastern knows that they are betting both ways [on the DPP and the KMT],” Lai told RFA.

He said China’s actions would likely be counterproductive, however.

“They want to win the support of the people of Taiwan, but it is getting further and further from their grasp,” he said. “To some extent, it’s actually helping the DPP win elections.”

Former Taiwan defense minister Tsai Ming-hsien said the overall effect of such attacks would be to discourage Taiwanese investment in China.

“The more China targets Taiwanese businesses, the less they will be willing to invest in China, because they don’t want China to hold any political influence,” Tsai said.

“Such political targeting and intervention is unfair to Taiwan businesses and will have a negative impact on China.”

But KMT lawmaker Wu Si-huai said DPP lawmaker Su Chiao-hui, daughter of Taiwan premier Su Chen-chang, would likely see a fall in donations from bigger companies with interests in China at the next election, giving rise to a chilling effect.

“This is one step in the CCP’s stealth offensive,” Wu told RFA. “Russian leader Vladimir Putin said China doesn’t need to invade Taiwan, because it has many other ways to [defeat it].”

“This right now is the first step,” he said.

Hong Kong libraries remove books for ‘violating’ national security law

Public libraries in Hong Kong have been quietly removing books from the shelves deemed politically “sensitive” under a national security law imposed on the city by the ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

More than 100 titles — many of them referencing the 1989 Tiananmen massacre — are believed to have disappeared from Hong Kong’s network of public libraries since the law took effect on July 1, 2020.

While the city’s leisure and cultural services department has made a list of more than 70 books deemed to be in breach of the law, which criminalizes public criticism of the Hong Kong and Chinese authorities, regular readers have spotted many more, according to local media reports.

Stand News, the Ming Pao newspaper and the English-language Hong Kong Free Press (HKFP) have listed books by jailed 2014 protest leader Joshua Wong, as well as dozens of books about the 1989 student-led protests in Tiananmen Square, and the June 4 massacre by the People’s Liberation Army that ended them.

While some books about the 1989 pro-democracy movement remain on library shelves, the number of copies has been slashed, forcing readers to order them via an inter-library loan scheme, the HKFP reported on Nov. 21.

Among the “disappeared” books are The Factual Account of a Search for the June 4 Victims (Vol. 1 – Vol. 2) by Ding Zilin, the founder of the Tiananmen Mothers victims campaign group.

Many of the books quietly disappeared from libraries after denunciations in the CCP-backed media, which said they broke the national security law.

As national security police raided and effectively shut down the pro-democracy Apple Daily newspaper and founder Jimmy Lai’s Next Digital media empire in June 2021, more than 30 books referencing the paper and Lai were removed from Hong Kong libraries after a complaint from a pro-CCP politician.

Books by Occupy Central founder and former law professor Benny Tai were also taken down following criticism in the Beijing-backed Wen Wei Po and Ta Kung Pao newspapers.

The Hong Kong government has previously said the leisure and cultural services department “regularly writes off dilapidated, damaged and outdated material, as well as items that no longer hold any value as reference or research resources.”

“If any content is found to violate the National Security Law for Hong Kong or other relevant legislation, it will be … taken seriously, and suspended from our collection,” it has said in response to previous media inquiries.

‘They just do whatever they want’

Veteran publisher Jimmy Pang, who has said the national security law has forced publishing houses and writers to halt projects and printers, distributors, and bookstores to reject sensitive books, said his Sub-Culture publishing house had had at least one title removed from libraries in May.

“In the past, we had clear boundaries … but now it’s not based on whether we understand or comply with [a set of rules],” Pang said. “They just do whatever they want now.”

He said the removal of Lai’s books on food and business was particularly strange.

“How did Jimmy Lai’s books about food and how to get ahead in business violate the national security law?” he said. “Another book by [journalist] Allan Au was based on a doctoral dissertation completed before 2017 … so how do they determine how far back to go?”

“We don’t know how many copies have been taken off the shelves,” he said, adding that the practice is already having a “chilling effect” on Hong Kong’s once-vibrant publishing industry.

“They will need to pore over every page, every word in every book to meet the government’s requirements,” he said.

Au recently told Stand News he wasn’t surprised that his work is now disappearing from libraries.

“A lot of voices have disappeared or been silenced in the current climate,” Au said. “Will libraries only offer books about food, travel and romance, or official history books in future?”

Repeated attempts to contact the leisure and cultural services department for a comment went unanswered at the time of writing on Wednesday.

Philips collaborates with leading institutes to bring its breakthrough spectral CT imaging into the interventional suite

November 24, 2021

  • Philips showcases world’s first spectral detector angio-CT solution at RSNA 2021
  • Solution combines breakthrough spectral detector CT imaging and real-time fluoroscopy in a flexible environment where all modalities are operated through Philips Image-Guided Therapy System – Azurion with FlexArm
  • Philips’ Spectral detector CT imaging in the interventional suite brings valuable additional information in minimally-invasive procedures for areas such as oncology, stroke, and trauma care

Amsterdam, the Netherlands – Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA), a global leader in health technology, today unveiled its vision for interventional medicine by bringing its breakthrough spectral CT imaging technology into a hybrid Angio CT suite. By combining the company’s unique Spectral CT 7500 system and its Image-Guided Therapy System – Azurion with FlexArm in a single interventional suite solution, Philips aims to give interventionalists immediate table-side access to these two key imaging modalities so they can perform procedures requiring both CT and angio guidance in one room. For the development of this integrated solution Philips is closely collaborating with leading clinical institutes such as Mayo Clinic (Rochester, MN, U.S.) and Baptist Health’s Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute (Miami, FL, U.S.). It is being presented at the 2021 Radiological Society of North America Annual Meeting (Chicago, USA, November 28 – December 2).

The goal of combining the breakthrough, first of a kind Spectral CT 7500 with the Azurion platform is to provide a seamless workflow environment in which all the necessary imaging modalities – are available directly at the patient table, fully controllable from the table-side work spot. When not in use, each modality glides smoothly away from the patient table into a parking position, giving the interventional team unrestricted access to the patient. Each system can work stand-alone if required. For interventionalists, it enables seamless efficient workflows without the need to move the patient from one imaging suite to another. For patients, this means their physicians can leverage the strengths of both systems during a single procedure.

Requiring just one scan to capture all the spectral information required to differentiate and quantify different tissues, Philips’ always-on spectral CT technology enables improved detection, delineation, and quantification of lesions, leading to better-informed planning for minimally-invasive procedures and more precise interventions. In oncology, spectral CT has also demonstrated a higher sensitivity in detecting malignant findings and has improved readings of incidental findings [1] [2].

“There has been a tremendous evolution in the image-guided therapy environment,” said Dr. Barry T. Katzen, founder and chief medical executive of Baptist’s Health’s Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute. “We are really excited about the merger and integration of these technologies in that it might allow us to look at the treatment of a number of diseases in very new and innovative ways, potentially offering new treatment opportunities and improving patient care. I am looking forward to investigating the possibilities of this promising innovation.”

“With this innovation, we are taking a uniquely patient-centric approach, aimed at bringing the latest interventional imaging modalities to the patient table rather than moving the patient to the individual modalities,” said Karim Boussebaa, General Manager of Image Guided Therapy Systems at Philips. “We are excited to be co-creating the future of image guided therapy with leading clinical partners by combining the best of our award-winning modalities into a single suite.”
