James Harden Celebrates First Anniversary of Launching J-Harden Wines

J-Harden Wines

NBA superstar James Harden is celebrating the first anniversary of launching J-Harden Wines by expanding distribution internationally, giving back to his fans around the globe, and elevating his support for female minority-owned businesses. Harden launched J-Harden Wines through a partnership with Accolade Wines in the summer of 2022 to make quality wine more accessible to all consumers. “I’m incredibly proud of what we accomplished in our first year of J-Harden Wines, starting with massive success in the U.S. and now expanding worldwide,” said Harden. “As a black-owned business owner, I want to make wine more available to all communities. I want people to know they can enjoy some of the finer things in life and do it at an affordable price.” Harden added, “As you’ve probably seen on TikTok and across social media, I’m literally doing cartwheels over the response we’ve seen for J-Harden Wines. I can’t wait to see what we accomplish in year two.” Harden recently wrapped up a tour of China, which joined the United States, Canada, Japan, Philippines, and Malaysia as countries that distribute J-Harden Wines. With Harden in the market for a series of appearances, China’s initial allocation of 16,000 bottles of J-Harden Wines sold out in minutes when it was released this week. J-Harden Wines plans to restock the supply in China to match demand. The success of J-Harden Wines internationally is a result of the momentum that Harden created in his first year in the wine business. He will visit with his U.S. fans during a visit to Houston’s Total Wine & More (2857 Katy Freeway, Suite 100) on Thursday, Aug. 24, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. J-Harden Wines and Harden will also support business grants for female minority-owned businesses, which will be given away at the Women’s Empowerment Brunch at Harden’s Thirteen Restaurant in Houston on Sunday, Aug. 20. J-Harden Wines will then participate in JH-Town Weekend, a series of fundraising events that support the Impact 13 Foundation, happening at the end of the month. “James has brought an elevated energy and enthusiasm to the wine industry through the launch of J-Harden Wines and its success over the last year,” said Enrique Morgan, Accolade’s Managing Director of the Americas. “We’ve accomplished so much together in a short period of time, and the response from his fans and our consumers has been incredible. We plan to continue making the wine more accessible in the United States and grow its distribution internationally.” Harden’s involvement in the J-Harden label goes far beyond an equity stake. Combining his love for fashion, art, style, and wine, Harden worked closely with the Accolade team to offer his input on the taste, look, and feel that matched his personality. Harden plays a significant role in the wine’s creative direction, design, and style. As a 10-time NBA All-Star and third-leading three-point scorer in NBA history, Harden continues to share his wine journey with fans across the country. Available in a California Cabernet Sauvignon, California Red Blend, and Prosecco, J-Harden Wines is available through leading retailers across the United States, including Total Wine & More, Kroger, Albertson’s/Safeway, H-E-B, BevMo!, and Target.

G MEDICAL INNOVATIONS WILL PROVIDE SERVICES TO VETERANS AND MILITARY PERSONNEL BY PARTNERING WITH RESILIENT SUPPORT SERVICES

G-Medical Innovations Holdings Ltd

Rehovot, Israel, August 17 th, 2023 – G Medical Innovations Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq: GMVD) (“G Medical Innovations”), an industry innovator in comprehensive remote patient monitoring solutions, today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, G Medical Innovations USA, Inc., has entered into an agreement with Resilient Support Services Inc.

RSS is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business that partners with U.S. federal agencies and private sector businesses that are concerned with improving the medical care of veterans and the military community. G Medical Innovations’ innovative technology will help federal agencies and military personnel to better monitor and diagnose new onset cardiovascular symptoms as part of a growing need in virtual care. This will allow full access to near real-time patient information which will also be analyzed by certified cardiac monitoring technicians through G Medical Innovations’ own independent diagnostic testing facility. Available to both adult and pediatric patients, this cloud-based monitoring system includes a small, water-resistant monitor that patients will receive by mail or in person. Patient’s symptoms can then be monitored in near real-time from the comfort of their home. Those who experience unusual arrhythmias or other monitored symptoms receive immediate communication from providers, enabling greater access to care and, in some cases, earlier diagnoses of serious medical conditions. The use of the G Medical Prizma device will allow for state-of-the-art remote patient monitoring (RPM) in the comfort of their home. This care experience platform ensures that patients remain connected with their care teams through next-generation devices to improve clinical decision-making. The patients will be able to download the G Medical app and receive a digital health kit to measure biometric data in one single device. “We are excited to have G Medical Innovations provide their powerful technology and 31 test kits to those serving our country in veteran affairs and all military branches here and abroad. Innovations like this will help protect and improve the care of our veterans and military serving soldiers, now and into the future,” explained Robert Domenici, Lieutenant Colonel (USA Ret.) President and CEO, RSS Inc. “We are delighted to say that we could not find a better partner to serve veterans affairs and all military branches than RSS Inc. G Medical is committed to providing the highest level of care and service to our veterans and military personnel,” said Dr. Yacov Geva, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of G Medical Innovations.

Experts encourage including HPV vaccine in back-to-school preparation for kids

YourUpdateTV

Every year, nearly than 40,000 men and women are diagnosed with a cancer caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) and about 14 million people, including teens, become infected with HPV each year. Recently, Heather Brandt, PhD, the Director of the HPV Cancer Prevention Program at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, conducted a satellite media tour to increase awareness and education about the importance of HPV vaccination in preventing HPV-related cancers. Dr. Brandt is urging parents and caregivers to include HPV vaccination in their child’s back-to-school immunizations. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/36xZsO3L3U4 There are several good reasons to immunize children against HPV as early as possible. HPV vaccination is recommended for males and females ages 9-26. HPV vaccination is encouraged to be completed by the 13th birthday, well before the potential for exposure to HPV, which is why Dr. Brandt is encouraging including HPV vaccination as part of a child’s back-to-school preparation. HPV can cause six different types of cancers: cervical, vaginal, vulvar, oral, anal and penile. One of the biggest misconceptions is that HPV only affects women, which is false. Men can also be diagnosed with HPV and carry the virus, which is why HPV vaccination is encouraged for both females and males. It is important that parents know which vaccines are recommended for their children and why. This allows for parents to have a thorough discussion with their child's health care provider and can avoid surprises and last-minute decision-making on vaccines. For more information go to stjude.org/hpv. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- BIO: Heather M. Brandt, PhD, is the Director of the HPV Cancer Prevention Program at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Dr. Brandt, a social and behavioral scientist, focuses on working with stakeholders to prevent and control cancer by using evidence-based interventions through innovative, partnered approaches. About the HPV Cancer Prevention Program Launched in 2021, the HPV Cancer Prevention Program at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital has set out to increase awareness and education about the importance of HPV vaccination in preventing HPV-related cancers. As the only NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center dedicated solely to children, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital has an important role and responsibility in increasing HPV vaccination rates locally, regionally, and nationally.
