Vinpearl Golf: Embarking on a Global Odyssey of Excellence

Vinpearl

HANOI, VIETNAM - Media OutReach Newswire - 12 December 2023 - In an extraordinary convergence of 60 globally renowned golf legends and hundreds of golf enthusiasts from across the globe, Vinpearl DIC Legends Vietnam 2023 has etched a unique mark on the international stage. Nestled against the picturesque backdrop of Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa, this remarkable event stands as a testament to Vinpearl Golf's commitment to excellence, transcending the realms of competitive prowess and embracing an unparalleled resort experience amidst the breathtaking allure of Hon Tre. A Golf Extravaganza at Vinpearl Nha Trang Initiating within the esteemed Legends Tour, a premier professional golf tour in Europe, the revered golfing legends commenced their journey to claim the championship cup from the iconic Tram Huong Tower, symbolizing the heart of Khanh Hoa. The procession gracefully wound along the Tran Phu coastal road, circumscribing Nha Trang port in VinFast VF 9 vehicles, receiving an awe-inspiring welcome from the sports community at Hon Tre. From November 28 to December 2, 2023, Vinpearl Nha Trang hosted a spectacle of competition, witnessing 60 golf "legends," including luminaries such as Euan McIntosh, Emanuele Canonica, John Price, James Kingston, Adilson Da Silva, Stephen Dodd, Joakim Haeggman, Peter Baker, and Markus Brier. This historic event marked the inaugural hosting of a European professional golf tournament in Southeast Asia. After two days of Pro-Am camaraderie with Vietnamese and international golfers, the legendary golfers embarked on three riveting official rounds. Adilson da Silva, the Brazilian maestro, displayed exceptional form, leading the scoreboard after the initial two days and continuing his stellar performance on the final day to claim a deserving victory. The accolades included the Dong Son Bronze Drum replica trophy—a poignant symbol of Vietnamese tradition—and a prize package valued at an impressive 93,500 USD. Scott Hend secured second place, while Ricardo Gonzalez and Michael Campbell, the US Open 2005 champion, shared third place. The top three contenders were awarded prizes totaling 200,000 USD, with the organizers revealing plans to elevate future event prize funds to an astounding 1 million USD. Vinpearl DIC Legends Vietnam 2023 unfolded at Vinpearl Golf Nha Trang, an 18-hole golf masterpiece nestled on the island paradise of Hon Tre. With its internationally acclaimed design, this course seamlessly blends the dreamy expanse of the azure sea with the majestic grandeur of the mountains, offering legendary golfers undulating fairways, hilly terrain, and ever-changing sea breezes—a concoction of challenges that captivated players. Over three days of competition at Vinpearl Golf Nha Trang, 60 legendary golfers delivered awe-inspiring performances, showcasing perfect swings, precise putts, and astonishing ball trajectories. Notably, on the second day of competition, a Hole-In-One (HIO) was recorded at the par 3 Hole 13 by legendary English golfer Malcolm MacKenzie after an exquisite swing. This particular hole, characteristic of Vinpearl Golf Nha Trang, provides a panoramic view of the sea, a sloping terrain towards the green area, and presents various challenges to golfers with wind, undulating terrain, and deep sand traps. Therefore, when the English legend sent the ball over a distance of 150 yards from the green tee straight into the hole, onlookers erupted in cheers, astonishment, and admiration. The prestigious prize for Malcolm MacKenzie included an "all-in-one" vacation at Vinpearl valued at 250 million VND and a one-year stay at the Pullman Vung Tau Hotel, part of the DIC resort system, worth 100 million VND. A Legendary Journey of Golfing Experience Beyond the confines of a golf tournament, Vinpearl DIC Legends Vietnam 2023 transcended into a luxurious travel journey, offering golfers an unparalleled experience within the distinctive ecosystem of Vinpearl Nha Trang. This includes five opulent beach resorts, the 50-hectare VinWonders theme park, the 18-hole 71-standard international golf course Vinpearl Golf, the Vinpearl Convention Center capable of hosting events for over 1,000 people, and the Vinpearl Theater with seating for 1,500. Set against the backdrop of the exquisite Nha Trang Bay, Hon Tre and Hon Tam serve as idyllic coordinates for resort experiences, high-end relaxation, and ensuring maximum privacy for visitors. The pathways on the island are adorned with radiant rows of shimmering trees, creating a magical and ethereal atmosphere as they sway in the wind. Various scenes are adorned with a simultaneous burst of "festival colors," recreating special occasions such as Christmas and welcoming the new year in 2024, providing a sense of familiarity to international visitors. In the four days of complete relaxation before venturing into the mentally challenging rounds on the Vinpearl Golf Nha Trang course, seasoned golfers immersed themselves in boundless joy through an unforgettable experiential journey. This included a splendid stay in luxurious beachfront villas amidst the ocean, overwhelming emotions and awe while enjoying the multimedia Tata Show performance at the renowned VinWonders Nha Trang theme park, health and spirit rejuvenation through premium spa treatments at Akoya Spa, natural mud baths on Hon Tam Island, and indulging in dinners featuring high-quality local specialties and global culinary excellence in the romantic setting of resort restaurants nestled in the bay. Legendary golfer Michael Campbell, ambassador of Vinpearl DIC Legends Vietnam 2023, who has treaded upon many world-famous beach paradises, did not hesitate to laud Vinpearl Nha Trang: "These experiences are beyond amazing! I will definitely return to Nha Trang with friends and family on future vacations to explore more local experiences, at Vinpearl, and especially the fascinating islands here." In a post-tournament statement, Ms. Nguyen Thi Mai Huong, Deputy General Director of Golf Operations at Vinpearl Joint Stock Company, shared, "With the vision of becoming a leading golf management and operation unit in Vietnam and among the top in the world, Vinpearl Golf is actively finalizing plans for larger and more prestigious tournaments in 2024, bringing many exciting surprises to the international golf community. With each event, we expect that the Vinpearl tourism ecosystem and famous destinations in our country will become favorite destinations for golfers and tourists worldwide.

New Report Highlights Weight Stigma in Media and Calls for Change

Media Empathy Foundation

A new national survey conducted for the Media Empathy Foundation sheds light on pervasive weight stigma in media, revealing that individuals with higher body weight perceive negative stereotypes, body shaming, weight blaming and exclusion from leading roles in TV and other forms of media. The report, titled “Weight Stigma and Media: Assessing the Impact”, draws attention to harmful impact and emphasizes the need for more inclusive and respectful representations across all channels. The study surveyed more than 1,200 U.S. adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, a demographic that accounts for 42% of American adults within the range of obesity according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The findings reveal a concerning pattern of problematic media portrayals with potentially detrimental consequences and underscores the need for consistent, compassionate, and accurate representation of individuals with higher body weight in media. The findings were discussed by a panel of leaders in media (Deborah Roberts, Al Roker and David Sloan) and academia (Rebecca Puhl, PhD and Holly Lofton, MD) at the Edge in NYC. “Weight stigma in the media exists in both blatant and subtle ways, reinforcing harmful attitudes and societal weight bias of people with higher body weight. There is a clear need for more respectful and compassionate media portrayals of people of diverse body sizes,” said Rebecca Puhl, PhD, Deputy Director for the Rudd Center for Food Policy & Health and Professor in the Department of Human Development and Family Sciences at the University of Connecticut. Key findings from the report include: High Prevalence: Most respondents assert that social media (73%), TV shows and movies (65%) and TV news (55%) often or sometimes perpetuate negative stereotypes about individuals with higher body weight. Only a small minority (5% or less) feel that this never happens. Health News Stereotyping: Respondents say that health news reports tend to blame people for their weight (70%) and suggest that all people with higher body weight are unhealthy (79%). Terminology Matters: A notable 88% of those surveyed find the term “fat” to be offensive or inappropriate, more so than “morbidly obese”, while “plus-size” and “overweight” are seen as appropriate by more than half. Negative Personal Impact: One in three respondents report that media portrayals have made them feel disrespected, with about as many reporting negative effects on their body image and self-esteem. One in four report negative effects on their mental health. Desired Change: Respondents are calling on creators to focus on character attributes beyond body type and to eliminate weight-based stereotypes, humor, or derogatory portrayals, advocating for more inclusive roles and realistic character development, as well as emphasizing health and wellness without resorting to shaming. Holly Lofton, MD, Clinical Associate Professor of Medicine and Surgery and Director of the Medical Weight Management Program at NYU Langone Health added, “It’s important that health news media more consistently report on the complex causes of obesity rather than assuming it’s the result of poor willpower or self-discipline.” “The media industry shapes the way we think and has the power to create a more aware and supportive culture for people with higher body weight,” said Helene Ellison, Founder and President of the Media Empathy Foundation. “That’s our hope in bringing weight stigma to the forefront.” The report was produced for the Media Empathy Foundation by Langer Research Associates and was made possible thanks to the support of Novo Nordisk Inc.

Galaxy Fox's Stage 3 is Almost Sold-Out. Here's Why It’s So Hot

RoundHouse Media

Watching for boisterous early movers proved a reliable strategy for turning modest sums into huge crypto stacks in 2017 and 2021. Luckily for investors, 2024 will offer a repeat of the pattern, and finding these small-cap gems before they launch is a one-way ticket to netting 1000X returns in this cycle. Galaxy Fox ’s ( $GFOX ) stage 3 is about to sell out. Could it be one of these early movers and a top crypto to buy in 2023? Here’s what we know. Galaxy Fox ($GFOX): A New Generation of P2E Galaxy Fox is leading the next generation of play-to-earn tokens, and this unique hybrid has risen rapidly, establishing itself as a top crypto to invest in before the 2024 GameFi-driven bull market. One of the only tokens uniquely positioned to enjoy two narratives. Galaxy Fox’s viral aesthetic, micro-cap, and deflationary tokenomics put it in the memecoin race, and its runner game puts it on the GameFi stage. The team has purposely enhanced the protocol's viral nature, allowing the possibility of it mooning overnight. A highly novel introduction from Galaxy Fox is a protocol-level marketing budget. Marketing is the key component of success in a bull. Galaxy Fox routing 2% of buy and sell taxes to the protocol Treasury- responsible for funding community initiatives and marketing efforts- outlines a constant revenue stream for ecosystem expansion. Additionally, revenue generated by real-world merchandise feeds the Treasury. As marketing attracts more users, the Treasury will accrue greater revenue, and further efforts will draw in new users. This is how Galaxy Fox activates a powerful flywheel for acquiring users. This business sense naturally makes $GFOX one of the best cryptocurrencies to buy for people who understand marketing dynamics and the importance of new users. All users in the Galaxy Fox ecosystem can compete in its Web3 runner game. Those skilled enough to end the season in the top 20% will earn prizes exchangeable for $GFOX tokens- a top crypto to buy in 2023 for any users confident in their gaming abilities. But Galaxy Fox offers more earning opportunities and moves away from the classic play-to-earn model, which only rewards a small percentage of skilled players. Instead, everybody staking $GFOX earns. Investors earn residual income via Stargate – the protocol’s staking module. Stargate accrues 2% of all ecosystem transactions and distributes these among stakers. Using taxes as opposed to emissions means these rewards have no theoretical cap and will grow in tandem as the ecosystem expands. $GFOX Full Scale Rush Into Stage 3 Galaxy Fox has blitzed past $750,000 and already entered stage 3. Those lucky enough to buy during stage 1 have already enjoyed two price increases. Given its current pace, investors who want to lock in the remaining seven price increases will have to move fast. The window of opportunity steadily closes- the days when investors can buy discounted $GFOX are numbered. Closing Thoughts: Move Fast and Securing Upside Crypto has always rewarded investors who move fast, take risks, and try new things. Galaxy Fox’s genre-bending approach to product development- releasing a memecoin/ P2E hybrid- makes it one of this year’s most exciting propositions. And its sub $1 million market cap looks primed to fly in the current market environment. Participate in the presale today and enjoy all the incoming staggered price increases. There is no telling how high $GFOX can soar, and entering price discovery in current market conditions could see prolonged vertical growth. Discover why analysts call $GFOX a top crypto to buy in 2023 and get an allocation before the GameFi bull market begins. Learn more about $GFOX here: Visit Galaxy Fox Presale | Join the Community Memecoin market is saturated with silly dog coin knock-offs and dodgy Pepe joke coins. What was once a thriving and fun-filled space has lately devolved into a wasteland of coins that lack real utility or serious development – or even something just to make you laugh, like OG memcoins of the past Doge and Shiba Inu once inspired.

AirConsole strikes strategic investment from KPIT Technologies to expand in-car gaming solution

AirConsole

Leading in-car gaming platform AirConsole (owned by N-Dream) has secured strategic investment from KPIT Technologies, an independent software integration partner to the automotive and mobility ecosystem to increase AirConsole’s lead in in-car gaming. The AirConsole in-car gaming solution was launched in new BMW vehicles earlier this year. With KPITs extensive experience in software development, integration and validation in Cockpit, Cloud and Connectivity domains, they are the ideal integration partner for N-Dream to scale the rollout of AirConsole to more models and brands. The innovative collaboration can be experienced at CES 2024, where KPIT will present their Cockpit of the Future together with AirConsole. Anthony Cliquot, CEO of N-Dream. “It's been a transformational year at AirConsole and in the industry. We have scaled our BMW partnership and have extended that to the MINI brand. Not only this, but we struck a partnership with Sony’s Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and will be launching the game in 2024. Now, working KPIT will take AirConsole to the next level. This investment will enable us to provide even more impressive games in the near future, increase our footprint in the automotive industry and overall establish ourselves as the ideal gaming solution for car makers and passengers. We look forward to CES 2024 where the world will get to see AirConsole in action.” KPIT’s equity investment in N-Dream will allow the company to grow their team, as well as enabling AirConsole to build out its game portfolio with well known gaming brands, creating more immersive experiences designed for the car. “Casual gaming is a fast-growing use case in a modern cabin. AirConsole is one of the industry’s early movers in the In-vehicle game aggregation space. KPIT is excited to strategically complement its software development and integration capabilities with AirConsole to realise new experiences for the Cockpit of the Future. Together, we will help OEM clients create monetizable Digital Services for existing vehicles and new launches”, said Mr. Pushpahas Joshi, EVP and member of the Executive Board at KPIT Technologies. The AirConsole in-car gaming solution allows passengers to play a diverse library of casual video games on the car’s entertainment system. AirConsole transforms the whole vehicle into a gaming console by using its surround sound system, big displays and interior lighting with smartphones as controllers. This unique experience is specifically designed for cars and catered to a broad audience from occasional players to hardcore gamers. “We are thrilled to have such a strong partner from the automotive industry. With autonomous driving, the way we commute will change forever. Together with KPIT we will spearhead in-car gaming, in a world where passengers will be able to spend much more time on entertainment.” says Andrin von Rechenberg, founder of N-Dream. AirConsole’s latest gaming software technology is able to run the games directly inside the vehicle and the service does not rely on streaming the games from the cloud, which would require more mobile bandwidth than is available in many cases. AirConsole is using smartphones to control the games, with each game having its own unique game controller design on the phone. Compared to controlling games with touch input on a flat head unit display, AirConsole is far more ergonomic, feels more natural and allows any passenger inside the car to participate in a multiplayer experience. About AirConsole AirConsole was founded in 2015 and is currently located in Zurich, Switzerland. AirConsole is the leading casual gaming platform for in-car entertainment. Its games are seamlessly played using smartphones as controllers while playing games on a big screen, eliminating the need for additional hardware. The Swiss gaming company recently launched a successful partnership with the BMW Group globally, making their games available in millions of vehicles. Over 18 million players have already played the AirConsole experience on TV and Web.

Crypto Christmas Comes Early as Pre-Holiday Market Heats Up. Where Are the Biggest Gains?

RoundHouse Media

Often dubbed the “Santa Claus Rally,” the cryptocurrency market has a history of experiencing gains before the holiday season. 2023 has brought a different level of excitement, with the rally beginning just before the Christmas season. While Bitcoin has remained the pioneer of the rally, it has been outperformed by several altcoins. ORDI ($ORDI), Celestia ($TIA), and Galaxy Fox ($GFOX) are among the best altcoins to buy now. Let’s find out what the driving force is behind their rallies. >>BUY $GFOX TOKENS<< Galaxy Fox ($GFOX) Leads the Altcoin Rally As Interest Rise Amidst the recent market rally, Galaxy Fox ($GFOX) has recorded a surge of interest from investors. The project has gained attention because of its unique reward system and tokenomics. As a result, the project has $600,000 within just a few weeks of its introduction. Players are rewarded for conquests in the virtual world as they journey through different worlds. Their in-game rewards can be converted to cash on the ecosystem’s marketplace. In addition, the game’s Stargate module offers potential for residual income. Galaxy Fox’s ecosystem is supported by a 6% transaction tax, which is distributed among staking rewards, the project’s treasury, and a liquidity pool. Because of its dedication to rewarding its community, Galaxy Fox has been voted as the best way to earn passive income with cryptocurrency in 2023. This has contributed to the increased attention and price growth of its $GFOX token. Its value has risen by over 33% in the last week to $0.0008778. Analysts expect the coin to gain even more during its crypto presale. In addition, $GFOX has been anticipated to rise by up to 1,000% by Q1 2024, making it the best crypto to invest in for the bull market. >>BUY $GFOX TOKENS<< ORDI ($ORDI) Outperforms Bitcoin With Massive Gains In January 2023, Casey Rodarmor introduced the first Bitcoin ordinals. By June, ORDI ($ORDI) was launched as the native token for the asset class, making it one of the best altcoins to buy. ORDI has seen tremendous success in the last month, outperforming Bitcoin in the process. The token has gained more than 170% weekly, making it one of the best cryptocurrencies to buy. Its price briefly increased above $70 before dropping back to $52. As a result, $ORDI has become the first BRC-20 currency to achieve a $1 billion market cap. Celestia ($TIA) Resumes Uptrend, Touches $10 Celestia launched its mainnet on October 31. The project introduced a network to make the development and implementation of modular blockchains easier. Celestia’s price skyrocketed following the mainnet’s introduction. From $2.31 on October 31, $TIA rallied as high as $7 by mid-November. After a brief retracement, Celestia has resumed its uptrend, gaining 56% in the first week of December. This massive rally has sent the price of $TIA above $10 for the first time ever. Closing Thoughts The massive gains of Galaxy Fox ($GFOX), ORDI ($ORDI), and Celestia ($TIA) have made them the best altcoins to buy for the bull market. However, given its greater upside potential, $GFOX has seen a surge of interest over the last few weeks.

Let's look at the components that make it an irresistible force in the crypto space. The Galaxy Fox Ecosystem: The Future of Web3 Gaming Galaxy Fox is a multi-faceted ecosystem. At its heart is a Web3 endless runner game that adds a layer of excitement and rewards skillful players. The top 20% of players each season receive incentives from a pool funded by in-game purchases, fostering a competitive yet cooperative community. Beyond gaming, Galaxy Fox introduces an attractive staking system. There’s a 6% fee on all transactions, and this is distributed to the treasury, Stargate staking pool, and liquidity pool. 2% of the transaction fees are allocated to stakers. This mechanism encourages active participation and rewards those contributing to the project's growth. With an overall supply of 5 billion tokens, Galaxy Fox strategically allocates tokens to liquidity, ecosystem development, and rewards, ensuring the project’s long-term success. Token burning, a deliberate strategy, reduces the circulating supply, potentially supporting token prices.
