CardSnacks Helps Loved Ones Send the Perfect E-Card with AI-Powered, Personalized Greeting Suggestions

CardSnacks

With Mother’s Day and Father’s Day holidays approaching, CardSnacks, the leading platform for individuals and businesses to send personalized e-greetings and gift cards, has introduced an artificial intelligence feature to assist senders in finding the right words to express their love and appreciation. For the first time, CardSnacks users will be able to employ AI-powered technology to build personalized greetings or use AI to suggest the right sentiment and approach for their own words. “Anyone who has ever sat down to write a personalized greeting knows that finding the right words to say is often hard,” said Mark Wachen, founder and CEO of CardSnacks. “With our new AI technology, users can now bring to life their own feelings faster and easier. Whether they adopt the AI suggestions fully or simply use them as a starting point for their own creativity, we are providing our users with a faster, more simplified approach to best express how they feel about those they love or respect.” The new AI feature allows users to set the stage for what they want to say. After choosing from one of the thousands of card options available, senders can then select their relationship to the recipient and the emotion they want to convey. Afterwards, CardSnacks provides AI-powered, personalized greetings to consider. For example, senders could choose a Mother’s Day card cover and then provide the app with details on the recipient and the type of message they want to create. Should the card be funny, sentimental, or heartfelt? Does your mother have specific interests or hobbies you want to mention? Do you want to send a regular message, or perhaps a rhyme? Through CardSnacks proprietary, easy-to-use AI card builder, a sender can input this information, and a customized greeting will be created in just seconds. Here’s a video that shows an example of what the experience would be like for a user of the CardSnacks app: cardsnacks.net/AI This does not mean, however, that you must use what the CardSnacks AI engine suggests. Users can edit the responses or create their own, using the AI feature solely as a way to get the thoughts started. Indeed, users can further add their own personalization by adding photos, videos, stickers and choosing music from tens of thousands of popular songs available in the app. And they can also include a gift by attaching a gift card from the over 400 leading retailers available in the CardSnacks app. “Until now, people had a choice that fell between pre-printed, canned messages and blank cards that sometimes challenged them to be creative,” Wachen said. “Our new feature is an ideal application of AI as it provides a fun easy way to take the thoughts in your head and instantly turn them into a fun, personalized greeting.” The feature is available now to all CardSnacks premium members, and for a limited time, can be sampled by free users as well. The feature is available on iOS, and will be coming to Android and the Web soon. About CardSnacks CardSnacks is the leading platform for individuals and businesses to send personalized e-greetings, invitations, and gift cards. It is based in New York, with employees in California, London, and Israel. CardSnacks is available in the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and on the web.

Introducing Mother Science: A Revolutionary Biotech Skincare Brand Bringing Patented Ingredient Malassezin to Market with Molecular Hero Serum

Mother Science

Introducing Mother Science: A Revolutionary Biotech Skincare Brand Bringing Patented Ingredient Malassezin to Market with Molecular Hero Serum Mother Science is Engineering the Next Generation of Skincare Through Cutting-Edge Science, Technology, & Innovation Mother Science, a revolutionary biotech skincare brand, launches today with its first proprietary product - Molecular Hero Serum - that harnesses the power of Malassezin, a breakthrough, patented and first-to-market ingredient that is a 10x more powerful antioxidant than Vitamin C. This molecule, which naturally occurs on skin, has the unique ability to target hyperpigmentation, improve the skin’s moisture barrier, and provide potent antioxidant protection for powerful benefits without irritation. After extensive laboratory studies and two clinical trials, Mother Science is the first brand in skincare to use this novel molecule. The serendipitous discovery of Malassezin was fueled by the curiosity of co-founders and husband-wife duo, Mike Einziger, founding guitarist of Incubus, and renowned violinist, Ann Marie Simpson-Einziger. In addition to their passion for music, Mike and Ann Marie have always been enthralled by science. Mike studied the history of science at Harvard and Ann Marie studied biology at The University of Virginia and later taught high school physics and chemistry. In 2016 while on tour, Ann Marie developed a harmless skin condition that caused lightened patches of skin on her back. She had a hypothesis: could whatever caused them be used to intentionally reduce the look of dark spots on her face. The couple assembled a team of leading scientists, and together, over the course of six years, uncovered the power of Malassezin, which led to the inception of Mother Science. Mother Science’s first product, Molecular Hero Serum, features Malassezin. This first-of-its-kind serum dramatically reduces the appearance of dark spots and sun damage, for an overall brighter, smoother, more youthful-looking complexion. The clinically-tested serum delivers proven results starting in just two weeks and can be used AM and PM. CLINICAL RESULTS In just 4 weeks*: 100% of participants had a reduction in the appearance of dark spots. 100% saw brighter, smoother skin. 100% had a visible improvement in lines and wrinkles. 94% said their skin looked more youthful. “True molecular innovation is rare, and discovering Malassezin required a mix of luck, curiosity, scientific rigor, and passion,” said Ann Marie Simpson-Einziger, Co-Founder of Mother Science. “I’ve always called myself a ‘citizen scientist,’ and the Mother Science brand embodies this ethos of entrepreneurship, curiosity, continuous learning, and innovation,” added Mike Einziger, Co-Founder of Mother Science. “With over six years of rigorous testing and research, we are thrilled to launch the next generation biotech skincare company, and we’re just getting started.” Mike and Ann Marie brought on Jessica Goldin as Mother Science’s CEO and Co-Founder to build the brand and shepherd its go-to-market strategy. Goldin is a 20-year beauty industry veteran who previously served as the founding CEO of Shani Darden Skin Care and held various leadership and executive marketing roles at Beautycounter, Murad, Clinique, and Victoria’s Secret Beauty. Mother Science’s team also includes Dr. Pearl Grimes, the brand’s Chief Dermatologist, a globally recognized expert and leading authority in hyperpigmentation. Dr. Grimes has spent the past six years leading extensive scientific studies on Malassezin. "Consumers are becoming more and more interested in science-based skincare, " said Jessica Goldin, Mother Science’s CEO and Co-Founder. "As a biotech beauty brand with a proprietary, novel ingredient, we are excited to introduce a highly efficacious serum based on a new approach to treating dark spots and sun damage." Mother Science’s seed round was led by Female Founders Fund with participation from defy.vc, Founders Fund, KarpReilly, H Venture Partners, NewBound Ventures, BFG Partners, Tuesday Capital, Olive Capital, Liquid 2 Ventures, and Hawktail. Other investors include Drew Houston, Founder and CEO of Dropbox, John Paul DeJoria, Co-Founder of Paul Mitchell, Hedi Gores, Co-Founder of Pressed Juicery, Jared Smith, Co-Founder of Qualtrics, Toni Ko, Founder of NYX, Carlos Cashman, Co-Founder of Thrasio, Cyan Banister, Sabrina Hahn, and Molly DeWolf Swenson. “We are thrilled to support Mother Science in their mission to bring an innovative, science-based solution to the market that addresses one of the most prevalent skincare concerns: dark spots,” said Anu Duggal, Partner, Female Founders Fund. “Today's consumers are increasingly focused on skincare efficacy, and the clinical results of the Molecular Hero Serum are very promising in this regard. With its unique formulation and demonstrated effectiveness, we believe that this product has the potential to make a significant impact in the skincare industry and help people feel more confident in their skin.” Mother Science’s Molecular Hero Serum ($89) is available for purchase starting today at motherscience.com. For additional information, please visit Mother Science’s website, and follow @motherscience on Instagram. *Based on a clinical study using instrumentation, VISIA photography, expert grading, and consumer perception. Participants used the serum twice a day. ### About Mother Science Mother Science is a revolutionary biotech beauty brand creating next-generation skincare solutions. The brand is pushing the boundaries of skincare formulations with cutting-edge science, beginning with its never-before-used ingredient, Malassezin. Born out of curiosity and a passion for science, Mother Science aims to build a community inspired by learning and innovation.

All content on the site is written, created and produced by women content creators to explicitly provide sports betting news, information, odds and statistics for women bettors of all skill levels.

I looked for content to help educate myself as a bettor, but found the majority of resources were clearly created to be consumed by a male audience,” said Val C. Martinez, CEO and founder of BettingLadies.com. “Multiple studies have found that nearly a third of the betting market is women, however the opportunities for female-centric content have been limited. While there are women content creators in the market, I strategically saw whitespace and wanted to create a new space where bettors could consume content from like-minded female sports fans, as well as build a platform where female creators can find a voice in the emerging sports betting market.” Martinez brings more than 20-years experience as a banker and financial executive, leading large business groups in major financial institutions, to her role as founder of BettingLandies.com.

The site’s most noted content creator is a professional wrestler and sports broadcast talent Danielle Kamela. In addition to writing for BettingLadies.com, Kamela creates the site’s signature digital asset, the daily “Lady Locks” series, which posts to Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. “What drew me to working with BettingLadies.com was Val’s vision to create an approachable, judgement free and inclusive community, built on educating and supporting the growth of women bettors across the country,” Kamela said. “As a fan and bettor of all sports, Lady Locks provides me the opportunity to be flexible in the content I create, moving seamlessly from NBA to MLB games and NFL games in the fall. I’m excited about the future of this site and giving a voice to women bettors.” In addition to Kamela, BettingLadies.com has plans to expand to more than a dozen featured personalities in the coming months. “Beyond the launch, our goal is to evolve BettingLadies.com to be synonymous with the betting experience for women.

NUTRACOLLAGEN® INTRODUCES NEW SPECIALTY VARIETIES OF THEIR POPULAR COLLAGEN COFFEE

NutraCollagen

Grand Rapids, MI based Advanced Protein Technology, which has been in the collagen business since 2004 introduces new buzz worthy variations of its widely popular classic; COLLAGEN COFFEE with three new incredibly nutritious and delicious flavors; Salted Caramel, Chai Latte, and Mocha Hazelnut under the NutraCollagen ® brand. The NutraCollagen ® brand first introduced the world to Collagen Coffee in 2017, when the growing trend of adding collagen to coffee as a “health & beauty” type of creamer first began as a trend. Collagen’s benefits, like supporting healthy hair, skin, nails, joints, and bones are best met when consumed daily, and what better way to work that consumption into a routine than to combine it with that daily cup (or two) of coffee. Coffee, of course has been proven to have several health benefits of its own. Nothing made better sense at the time than pairing this duo of superfood together. The idea seemed obvious to the team at NutraCollagen ® and the first premixed Collagen Coffee was born. Premium, real Columbian Coffee, micro ground and instantized, then blended with Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides derived from grass-fed bovine. To make this Collagen Coffee beauty blend even more of an ultimate boost for health, wellness, and pick-me-up energy, MCT from coconut oil was added to provide a source of healthy fats that act as an instant source of energy for the body and the brain. Easy-to-use, all of the Collagen Coffee flavor varieties are instantized to prepare effortlessly with hot water without clumping, or simply to infuse collagen into your coffee, or add to any recipe or beverage that you may want to have a coffee flavor and nutritional boost. Also great for refreshing cold shakes and smoothies! Collagen Coffee can also be used to make ice cream, sauces, creamers, cookies, cakes, etc. There is no limit to what you can make! Each COLLAGEN COFFEE smooth and creamy blend has been scientifically crafted to be well-balanced with the highest-quality collagen peptides and a rich blend of real coffee to come out perfectly light and creamy. One serving of Collagen Coffee provides 10-11g of Premium Protein with 11-12g of Collagen Peptides from grass fed bovine. The formulas range from 60-90 calories, contain either 0g to 1g Sugar, are non-GMO, Gluten-free and support KETO and low-carb diets. Best of all, real coffee is used in the COLLAGEN COFFEE blends, naturally providing 40mg of caffeine. Enough to give a much-needed lift without an unwanted lift-off! To find out more about what’s brewing, visit www.collagencoffee.com NUTRACOLLAGEN® brand of collagen products are formulated, manufactured, and distributed by Grand Rapids, Michigan based Advanced Protein Technology, LLC. Dedicated to delivering superior nutritional ingredients with the highest quality for the best price, producing all products while strictly adhering to HACCP, ISO, and GMP standards.

Berkshire Hathaway Shareholder to Criticize Warren Buffett and Bill Gates for Politicized Philanthropy

National Legal & Policy Center

National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC) is the sponsor of a Berkshire Hathaway shareholder proposal to separate the roles of Chairman and CEO. On April 21, we filed a proxy memo in support of our resolution, explaining why we believe the succession plan is inadequate and that the company should be less identified with Warren Buffett’s politics. Here is the statement NLPC Chairman Peter Flaherty plans to make at the Berkshire annual meeting on Saturday, April 6 in Omaha, Nebraska: I am Peter Flaherty, Chairman of the National Legal and Policy Center. If we had an independent chair, the Company would be less identified with Mr. Buffett’s political activities. He’s donated more than $100 billion to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. As Bill Gates explained when the couple was still together, “ although the foundation bears our names, basically half our resources have come from Warren Buffett.” If “woke” culture is a disease, then philanthropy is the virus. The Gates Foundation bankrolls the teaching of Critical Race Theory around the country, including that math is inherently racist. The Gates Foundation offers a Gender Identity Toolbox, which asserts that gender is the result of “socially and culturally constructed ideas.” This is a lie. Gender is not a cultural construct. It is a genetic and biological fact. We know how much Bill Gates cares about children. He met and traveled with Jeffrey Epstein MANY times AFTER Epstein was convicted of sex crimes. The Gates Foundation had a huge influence over the COVID response fiasco. Bill Gates defended China’s COVID policies and still discounts the possibility that the virus originated from a lab, even though U.S. intelligence agencies disagree. The Gates Foundation may be the largest single donor to the “dark money” machine known as Arabella Associates which funds causes like defunding the police that are making American cities unlivable. Money goes, too, to groups conducting threatening and vulgar protests at their homes of Supreme Court Justices. Mr. Buffett has quietly funneled more than $4 billion to groups supporting abortion on demand through the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation. That’s $4 billion, with a B. Advocacy disguised as philanthropy. Bill Gates has lamented political polarization and even worried aloud about a civil war. But it is billionaires who are funding the most shrill and extreme activists who are tearing our country apart. Ironically, Mr. Buffett has pointed out that corporate executives can make a lot of people mad when they insert themselves into controversy. Anheuser-Busch is finding that out. It cannot renounce its Dylan Mulvaney transgender promotion because it is handcuffed by its longtime support for activists who would turn on them in a minute. Anheuser-Busch gets a perfect grade on the Human Rights Campaign scorecard, as do Berkshire portfolio companies like Coca-Cola, Bank of America, and Apple. Bank of America and Apple help bankroll this group, which wants biological men to compete in women’s sports. Worse, it is currently pressuring state legislatures to allow sex change operations on children, and to keep their parents out of the decision. Let’s revisit Coca-Cola, which I discussed at last year’s meeting. CEO James Quincey, a British citizen, tried to kill Georgia’s voter integrity law in 2021 by making inaccurate and inflammatory statements about it. That’s the law that President Biden called “Jim Crow 2.0,” and which prompted Major League Baseball to move the All-Star game out of Atlanta. Mr. Buffett jumped on the bandwagon, too, by signing a statement by corporate leaders suggesting that Republicans seek to restrict ballot access based on race. Two years later, we can now evaluate that accusation. Last year, an election was held in Georgia. Turnout was record breaking. According to an independent poll, 99% of voters said they had “no problem” casting ballots. 92% said the new law either had no impact on their ability to vote or made it easier. James Quincey was wrong, and Mr. Buffett, so were you. ### To schedule an interview with Peter Flaherty, please contact Dan Rene at drene@nlpc.org or Jackie Jones at jackie@truthpr.com Founded in 1991, NLPC promotes ethics in public life and government accountability through research, investigation, education, and legal action.

Yellow Labrador Retriever, Sage, Deployed on USS Gerald R. Ford as Part of the FIRST Expanded Operational Stress Control Canine Pilot Program

Mutts with a Mission

NORFOLK, VA, May 05, 2023 - McapMediaWire - Sage, a three-year-old female yellow Labrador Retriever, has been deployed aboard the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford, as part of the Expanded Operational Stress Control Canine pilot program. This innovative program is aimed at providing a unique outlet and comfort for Sailors during deployment, with the goal of helping them cope with the operational stress associated with their work. Sage is part of the warfighter toughness mental health and resiliency team on the Gerald R. Ford and is specially trained to help Sailors deal with the challenges of deployment. Animals have been proven to be an effective form of stress relief and can provide a sense of companionship, which is why Sage is expected to be an invaluable asset to the crew during their deployment. Allen Fabijan or “Some Guy Named Allen” a Puppy Raiser and trainer with Mutts with a Mission, a Virginia-based non-profit organization accredited by Assistance Dogs International, helped to raise and train Sage. “We knew Sage was special, we just had no idea what a special role Sage would have the honor of playing for so many deserving sailors. There is no doubt she is the best choice for the Crew of the Gerald R. Ford and the EOSC program,” said Fabijan. The Gerald R. Ford will be the first U.S. Navy ship to have an expanded operational stress control (EOSC) canine as part of the crew throughout deployment. Chaplain Genevieve Clark, Gerald R. Ford and Carrier Strike Group 12’s Chaplain, will serve as Sage’s primary handler while on deployment. In preparation for deploying with Sage, Clark completed 120 hours of handler training with Mutts with a Mission. Three other volunteer handlers aboard the Ford also support Clark in Sage's care and mission. “One of the positives of having Sage aboard the ship is her help in breaking down some barriers to utilizing mental, emotional, and spiritual resiliency resources,” said Clark. “Sailors are coming to more warrior toughness events and improving their morale through the vast network of resiliency resources the ship offers with Sage now present at these opportunities.” During deployment, all Sailors will benefit from spending time with Sage, who will be present with Chaplains, Resiliency Providers, and Mental Health professionals. Sage will be available to Sailors during ship-wide Morale, Welfare, and Recreation events, and her daily schedule will be made available to Sailors for general visitation and morale boosts throughout the day. Mutts with a Mission sent Sage with all necessary supplies for deployment, including a waste collection mat, proper bedding located in the handler’s stateroom, personal protective gear including paw, hearing, and eye protection, and a life vest. “The Sailors of Gerald R. Ford are excited to welcome Sage to the ship. Mutts with a Mission provides an invaluable service to Sailors, one that will aid in stress relief during the ship’s deployment,” said Capt. Rick Burgess, Ford’s commanding officer. “Sage is one of the many resources aboard the ship to help Sailors build resiliency and enhance morale.” The deployment of the USS Gerald R. Ford Carrier Strike Group (GRFCSG) is currently ongoing in the Atlantic Ocean in support of interoperability and maritime security. In total, the GRFCSG is deployed with more than 6,000 Sailors across all platforms ready to respond globally to combatant commander tasking.

As a result of FSD Pharma’s failure to comply with a Cease-and-Desist letter sent by GBB on April 14 th, 2023, the Company has subsequently filed a $53 million complaint for material breach of a mutual nondisclosure agreement and trade secret misappropriation. Filed on May 1 st, 2023, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, the complaint alleges that after seven months of exploring a business opportunity of mutual interest and benefit revolving around GBB’s blood alcohol detoxification drink, FSD Pharma publicly announced the misappropriation of GBB’s trade secrets to current and prospective investors in one of its press releases.

The Company is seeking compensatory and punitive damages as well as an injunction against FSD Pharma preventing further unlawful disclosure and use of the Company’s trade secrets.

Can Someone Explain the Snail Secretion Skincare Craze?

Caracol Natural Skincare

Caracol Natural Skincare, NEW to the US, is a natural skincare brand that uses snail secretion as the key ingredient. Steeped in tradition, this Chilean based family-owned skincare brand has combined Chilean ancient medicine with modern technology and is now available in the US on AMAZON. Founded in 2006, Caracol Natural is a beautiful story of people in harmony with nature, with high admiration for Chilean and global ancestral medicine, and with the conviction that skincare with natural eco-friendly ingredients, along with premium actives, can offer better-faster-stronger results. The use of snail secretion (also known as snail mucin) in cosmetics can be traced back to ancient Greece, where Hippocrates reportedly prescribed snails for skin inflammation. In the 20th century, snail farmers in Chile noticed that their hands became softer and smoother after handling snails, which led to the development of snail-based creams for hand care. The use of snail secretion in skincare products again gained popularity in the 1990s, when a group of Chilean farmers developed a snail cream that became a best-seller in Korea. Since then, snail secretion has been incorporated into a wide range of skincare products, including creams, serums, masks, and lotions. One of the most interesting aspects of snail secretion is its ability to improve skin health in multiple ways. Snail secretion is a complex mixture of compounds, including hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid, allantoin, antioxidants, and peptides, that can work together to provide a range of benefits for the skin. Another interesting aspect of snail secretion is that it is a natural ingredient that is sustainably sourced. Snail farming is a relatively low-impact agricultural practice that doesn't require large amounts of water or land, making it an environmentally friendly option. Here are some of the main benefits of snail secretion: Hydration: Snail secretion contains hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid, and allantoin, which help to hydrate and moisturize the skin. This can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and leave the skin looking plump and supple. Anti-aging: Snail secretion contains antioxidants, peptides, and other compounds that can help to reduce the signs of aging. It may help to improve skin elasticity, reduce the appearance of dark spots, and improve skin texture. Healing: Allantoin, a compound found in snail secretion, has been shown to have wound-healing properties. It may help to reduce inflammation, speed up the healing process, and reduce the risk of scarring. Soothing: Snail secretion has a soothing effect on the skin, which can help to reduce redness and irritation. This makes it particularly beneficial for people with sensitive skin. Brightening: Snail secretion contains glycolic acid, which can help to brighten the skin and reduce the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation. The Caracol Natural lineup includes: The Gentle Cleanser - $22.99 The Gentle Cleanser Facial Foam Expert gently removes impurities while respecting your natural skin barrier. This gentle face wash formula includes Snail Secretion Filtrate plus 8 Clearing Vegetal Extracts like Nettle, Aloe Vera, Sage and Rosemary that helps restore skin balance. Our formula is fitter for sensitive, delicate, dry, flaky, worn, dull, sallow skin, nevertheless is recommended for balancing oily skin and suitable for all skin types The Eye Contour Serum - $32.99 The Eye Contour Serum hydrates, moisturizes, refreshes and restores the healthy appearance of the delicate skin around the eye. It helps to depuff, reduce dark circles and sagginess, lessen oxidative stress, minimize and prevent fine lines and crow's feet. Our Eye Contour Serum helps to brighten, firm, plump, lift, soothe and smooth skin to sustain and recover a radiant, lively and healthier look. The Gentle Serum - $35.99 The Premium Gentle Serum is designed to restore and maintain firmer, denser, flexible, healthier, radiant and bouncier skin. Our Skin Care Gentle Serum for Face and Neck helps subside fine lines, wrinkles, sagginess and dullness. It lessens oxidative stress, it hydrates, moisturizes, softens, calms, plumps, and boosts skin wellbeing, bestowing a beautiful and youthful complexion.
