New Book ‘Personality Intelligence: Master the Art of Being You’ by Merrick Rosenberg Unlocks the Power of Personality to Transform Work, Relationships, and Life

MARLTON, N.J., Sept. 2, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — After helping more than 15 million people worldwide discover their personality style, Merrick Rosenberg -entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and the creative force behind the popular “bird” framework of personality – announces the release of his groundbreaking new book, “Personality Intelligence: Master the Art of Being You (For Your Sake and Everyone Else’s)” (ISBN: 978-1959554080; hardcover), available September 2, 2025.

Image caption: Cover, “Personality Intelligence: Master the Art of Being You” by Merrick Rosenberg.

Rosenberg, widely known as “The Bird Guy,” has spent more than three decades pioneering innovative approaches to personality-based learning. His reimagining of the traditional DISC model into four instantly recognizable birds – Eagle, Parrot, Dove, and Owl – has made understanding personality fun, intuitive, and unforgettable. With “Personality Intelligence,” Rosenberg takes his work to the next level, introducing a fresh, practical framework that helps readers not only understand themselves but also grow into the best version of who they can become.

“An understanding of all the personality styles, not just our own, reveals the path to becoming the highest expression of ourselves,” Rosenberg says.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Merrick Rosenberg is a trailblazing entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and the foremost expert on how personality shapes behavior, relationships, and success. In 2012, he revolutionized the DISC personality model by reimagining the classic letters as four memorable birds – Eagle, Parrot, Dove, and Owl – making the styles instantly visual, relatable, and unforgettable.

Merrick is the co-founder of Team Builders Plus (1991) and Take Flight Learning (2012), and has brought his innovative approach to more than two-thirds of the Fortune 100. He’s the author of eight award-winning books on personality and leadership, including Taking “Flight!,” “The Chameleon,” and “Which Bird Are You?,” and is the creative force behind the acclaimed short film “BirdBrains, Inc.,” winner of 23 film festival awards.

His upcoming book, “Personality Intelligence: Master the Art of Being You (For Your Sake and Everyone Else’s),” will be released in September 2025 and offers a bold new framework for personal and professional transformation.

Merrick’s journey began in management consulting, where he quickly realized that real change requires more than process, it demands people who understand and work well with each other. Driven by this insight, he earned an MBA in Organizational Development and founded one of the first team-building companies in the U.S. From there, he pioneered a new era of personality-based training that blends self-awareness with interactive learning.

Through his energetic keynotes, engaging programs, and innovative tools, Merrick continues to help people unlock their potential by mastering the one thing they carry with them everywhere: their personality.

ABOUT THE BOOK

“Personality Intelligence: Master the Art of Being You” offers a bold new perspective on personal growth and interpersonal success. While most personality assessments label people in fixed categories, Rosenberg argues that personality is not a box to sit in, it’s a springboard for transformation.

The book introduces the four familiar bird styles – Eagle (direct and results-driven), Parrot (social and enthusiastic), Dove (harmonious and compassionate), and Owl (logical and detail-oriented) – and explores how each plays out in everyday life.

Readers are then guided through the four levels of Personality Intelligence (PIQ):

Level 1: The Unevolved State – unaware individuals whose personalities work against them.
Level 2: The Typical State – people whose style serves them but occasionally sabotages them.
Level 3: The Master State – those who have elevated their personality to its best expression.
Level 4: The Chameleon State – rare individuals who seamlessly adapt to any style and thrive in every situation.

Through engaging fables, neuroscience insights, celebrity stories, and colorful characters like Dawn Eagleton, Ian Parrotti, Scarlett Doveridge, and Carter Barnowl, Rosenberg paints a vivid roadmap for readers to recognize themselves as they were, are, and could be.

“Personality Intelligence” is both a mirror and a guide, offering readers the tools to better understand themselves, build stronger relationships, and create greater success in all areas of life.

ABOUT TAKE FLIGHT LEARNING

Take Flight Learning is the leading provider of personality-based training solutions, founded by Merrick Rosenberg in 2012. The company has brought its dynamic and interactive programs to organizations across industries, helping individuals and teams improve communication, collaboration, and performance through the power of personality.

Special Operations Group: Christophe Glasl Returns with the Unflinching Memoir of Life Inside Australia’s Elite Police Unit

MELBOURNE, Australia, Sept. 2, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — After years of silence, former Victoria Police officer Christophe Glasl is reclaiming his story. His memoir, “Special Operations Group” (ISBN: 978-1998482726; paperback), is once again available to readers, offering a raw, unfiltered look inside one of Australia’s most secretive and dangerous law enforcement units.

Image caption: Cover, “Special Operations Group” by Christophe Glasl.

When “Special Operations Group” was first released by Hachette, it drew immediate attention, not only for its explosive content but also for the controversy it sparked. Police publicly challenged parts of Glasl’s story, and the publisher pulled the book from sale.

Glasl, however, has never wavered in his position. With full ownership of his work, he is determined to ensure that the truth is heard, and the book is now available for readers to purchase.

“This book is about truth, my truth,” says Glasl. “It was never written out of revenge. It was written to shed light on what really goes on inside the Special Operations Group and to reveal the personal toll of serving in that world. Institutions can push back, but the lived experience of those on the inside cannot be erased.”

Glasl joined Victoria Police at 19 with a singular ambition: to earn a place in the Special Operations Group (SOG). After enduring one of the most brutal selection processes in Australian policing, he entered a career defined by high-stakes operations including hostage rescues, counter-terrorism, drug busts worth hundreds of millions, and some of the darkest days in modern Australian history.

But “Special Operations Group” is more than a catalogue of missions. It is an insider’s revelation of a unit plagued by bullying, toxic culture, and immense psychological strain. Glasl writes candidly about the trauma of the job, the pressure to remain silent, and his own struggle with drug use as a desperate escape. His book exposes both the thrill and the devastating cost of serving in the SOG, a story few in power wanted told.

“Readers expect tales of heroics and headlines,” Glasl reflects. “What I wanted to give them is honesty. Behind the armour and tactics are men who carry scars, both physical and psychological. This book is about acknowledging that, and hopefully giving others the courage to speak out and seek help.”

Equal parts gripping frontline action and deeply human storytelling, “Special Operations Group” offers a rare inside perspective on what it takes to serve, survive, and eventually heal.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Christophe Glasl joined Victoria Police at nineteen and went on to serve in the Special Operations Group during the 1990s, taking part in some of Australia’s most high-risk operations. Today, he shares his story with honesty and humility, advocating for greater awareness of the mental health struggles faced by frontline officers. He continues to live a life grounded in fitness, gratitude, and resilience.

Ryan Abramson, Bucks County Admissions and Marketing Expert, Champions Authentic College Essays for Students

Langhorne communications consultant at Oakridge Leaders emphasizes equity, authenticity, and personal storytelling in the college admissions process

LANGHORNE, Pa., Sept. 2, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Oakridge Leaders, a Bucks County-based communications consultancy led by admissions and marketing strategist Ryan Abramson, today announced a renewed initiative to help high school students in Bucks County, Langhorne, and the greater Philadelphia region craft authentic, meaningful college application essays that reflect their unique voices and experiences.

Image caption: Ryan Abramson, Admissions and Marketing Strategist at Oakridge Leaders.

As the college admissions landscape grows more competitive each year, students in communities like Langhorne, Newtown, Yardley, and across Bucks County face unique challenges in making their applications stand out. Abramson, a seasoned communications consultant and admissions strategist, believes the key lies in authentic storytelling.

“Admissions officers want to meet the real you,” Abramson explained. “Too often, students feel pressured to write what they think colleges want to hear. The most powerful essays are honest, thoughtful, and deeply personal.”

For Abramson, equity in admissions is just as important as authenticity. In articles and interviews he emphasized that all students — regardless of school, background, or ZIP code — should have the tools and guidance to present their true selves. His coaching approach focuses on building confidence and clarity, empowering students to articulate their values, passions, and future goals.

Bucks County families often seek guidance rooted in over 25 years of experience in communications, marketing, and education. In communities such as Langhorne, throughout the Lehigh Valley and the broader United States, students are increasingly exploring strategies — from reflective writing exercises to collaborative workshops — that help them craft essays which clearly and authentically communicate their stories to admissions readers.

The focus on local students and community connections makes Oakridge Leaders a trusted partner for families navigating the admissions process in the Philadelphia region. “Every student deserves the opportunity to tell their story in a way that reflects who they are,” Abramson shared. “It’s not just about getting into college — it’s about owning your voice.”

About Ryan Abramson:

Ryan Abramson is a Pennsylvania-based author, consultant, and founder of Oakridge Leaders. Known for his authentic, strategic approach to communication, he brings more than 20 years of experience helping families, schools, and nonprofit leaders tell their stories, secure vital resources, and build trust with the communities they serve. He resides in Middletown Township, Langhorne, Bucks County. Learn more: https://ryantabramson.com/ryan-abramson-a-great-story/

‘Websites are a thing of the past’ declares GPT AI Corporation, Inc. with Launch of EdGPT.ai Platform for Educational Institutions

Advanced conversational AI technology addresses widespread website accessibility failures affecting 94.8% of websites, according to WebAIM Million 2025 study

BUENA PARK, Calif., Aug. 28, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Educational institutions from preschools to universities adopt AI-powered communication platform that eliminates traditional website barriers, GPT AI Corporation, Inc. today announced the launch of EdGPT.ai, an advanced conversational AI platform specifically designed for educational institutions, while declaring that “websites are a thing of the past” based on comprehensive research showing widespread website accessibility failures.

Image caption: EdGPT.ai from GPT AI Corporation, Inc.

The announcement comes as the 2025 WebAIM Million study reveals that 94.8% of the top one million websites contain accessibility barriers, with educational institutions particularly affected by communication challenges that traditional websites fail to address.

RESEARCH VALIDATES WEBSITE COMMUNICATION CRISIS

“The data clearly shows that traditional websites systematically fail users,” said Aftab Jiwani, Founder of GPT AI Corporation, Inc. “When 94.8% of websites contain accessibility barriers and users encounter errors on 1 in every 24 website elements, it’s evident that websites are a thing of the past.”

EDUCATIONAL SECTOR FACES UNIQUE COMMUNICATION CHALLENGES

Educational institutions experience particular communication difficulties, with administrative staff spending 15-20 hours weekly answering repetitive questions about schedules, policies, and procedures that should be accessible through digital channels. Research indicates that 73% of parents will not return to a school website after experiencing poor usability.

The communication gap becomes more pronounced during non-business hours, with 68% of school information requests going unanswered for over 24 hours, leaving families frustrated and disconnected from essential school information.

EDGPT.AI PLATFORM ADDRESSES EDUCATIONAL COMMUNICATION NEEDS

The EdGPT.ai platform serves educational institutions across all levels, from preschools through higher education, including both public and private sectors.

The platform replaces traditional website navigation with conversational AI that provides instant, accessible responses to common inquiries.

Early implementation results demonstrate measurable improvements in educational communication efficiency. Initial school users report a 65% reduction in administrative phone calls and a 75% improvement in prospective family engagement. The platform provides 24/7 accessibility, addressing the communication gaps that occur when school offices are closed.

COMPREHENSIVE EDUCATIONAL SPECTRUM COVERAGE

The platform addresses specific communication needs across different educational levels:

Preschool and early childhood centers utilize the technology to handle parent inquiries about daily schedules, pickup procedures, meal programs, and developmental policies without requiring staff intervention for routine questions.

Elementary schools implement the platform to address homework policies, lunch menus, after-school programs, and classroom procedures, reducing the administrative burden on school staff while improving parent access to information.

Middle schools leverage the technology for complex scheduling questions, extracurricular activities, and academic policies as students transition to more independent learning environments.

High schools utilize the platform for graduation requirements, college preparation information, athletic eligibility, and career planning guidance, reducing pressure on guidance counselors while providing immediate student and parent support.

Higher education institutions, including community colleges, universities, and graduate schools, implement the technology to address admissions requirements, financial aid information, course catalogs, campus services, and academic policies for prospective students, current students, parents, and faculty.

TECHNOLOGY ADDRESSES WEBSITE ACCESSIBILITY FAILURES

The EdGPT.ai platform utilizes Generative Pre-trained Transformer technology specifically configured for educational communication. Unlike traditional websites that present static information through complex navigation structures, the conversational AI system understands educational context and provides personalized responses based on user needs.

The technology directly addresses the accessibility failures identified in the WebAIM Million 2025 study by providing 100% accessible interfaces that eliminate navigation requirements and offer unlimited personalization capabilities. This approach removes the barriers that affect 94.8% of traditional websites.

IMPLEMENTATION RESULTS DEMONSTRATE EFFECTIVENESS

Educational institutions implementing the EdGPT.ai platform report significant operational improvements:

Administrative efficiency increases through an 80% reduction in repetitive staff inquiries, allowing educational professionals to focus on direct student support rather than answering routine questions.

Parent engagement improves with 24/7 instant support capabilities, enabling families to access information about schedules, policies, events, and procedures regardless of office hours.

Communication accessibility reaches 100% compliance, eliminating the barriers that affect nearly 95% of traditional websites according to the WebAIM research.

Response time improvements provide immediate answers to replace the 24-48 hour email response delays common in educational settings.

PRIVACY AND SECURITY COMPLIANCE

The EdGPT.ai platform maintains educational privacy standards by utilizing only publicly available information from school websites and approved materials. The system complies with Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) requirements while providing comprehensive communication capabilities without compromising student privacy.

IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS DESIGNED FOR EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENTS

Educational institutions can implement the platform through a streamlined process that recognizes the unique operational requirements of schools. The setup involves entering the current school website URL, allowing EdGPT.ai to automatically gather necessary information. Additional school data, including handbooks, calendars, policies, and staff directories, can be uploaded to the knowledge base, enabling the school’s conversational AI site to become operational within minutes.

RISK-FREE EVALUATION FOR EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

GPT AI Corporation, Inc. offers educational institutions free trial periods specifically designed for school evaluation cycles. This approach allows administrators to assess the platform’s effectiveness before making financial commitments, reducing barriers to adoption while demonstrating the advantages of conversational AI over traditional website communication.

MARKET IMPACT ON EDUCATIONAL COMMUNICATION

The EdGPT.ai launch represents a comprehensive approach to addressing educational website communication failures. By targeting the specific needs of educational institutions across all levels and sectors, the platform demonstrates that website accessibility and usability problems span the entire educational spectrum.

The platform’s focus on educational communication recognizes that schools have unique requirements that generic website solutions cannot adequately address. Each educational level faces distinct communication challenges that require specialized approaches while maintaining the conversational intelligence that eliminates traditional website barriers.

Pokémon GO Level Cap Rises to 80: LocaChange Guides Trainers into the Next Era of High-Level Play

NEW YORK CITY, N.Y., Aug. 27, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Pokémon GO is about to enter a new era. Niantic (Scopely) has officially announced that the trainer level cap will be raised from 50 to 80 starting October 15, 2025, marking the biggest progression update in the game’s history since the jump from Level 40 to 50 in 2020, says LocaChange.

Image caption: LocaChange Guides Trainers into the Next Era of High-Level Play.

With this update, trainers will face millions of XP requirements, advanced level-up challenges, and exclusive milestone rewards. To help players prepare, Niantic has launched an XP Celebration event (Aug 25 – Oct 14) featuring boosted XP, Timed Research, and special bonuses for trainers eager to climb the ranks.

WHAT LEVEL 80 MEANS FOR POKÉMON GO

According to Philip Williams, Pokémon GO columnist at LocaChange, this update represents a long-term evolution of the game: “The new Level 80 cap is one of the most significant milestones in Pokémon GO’s history. Trainers will need to rethink their XP strategies and adopt more efficient gameplay methods if they want to stay ahead. This isn’t just about grinding; it’s about adapting to a more competitive and global Pokémon GO community.”

Williams also highlighted that Niantic may not stop at Level 80. Following the game’s progression pattern—Level 40 (2016), Level 50 (2020), and now Level 80 (2025)—a future Level 100 milestone seems increasingly likely, alongside possible features such as global rankings, exclusive tournaments, and elite trainer events.

“Reaching Level 80 will demand more than just dedication—it requires smarter strategies,” added Williams. “Tools like LocaChange give trainers the ability to compete on a truly global stage, ensuring that they don’t fall behind in this new era of high-level play.”

A MILESTONE FOR THE COMMUNITY AND THE INDUSTRY

Beyond gameplay, this update signals a strategic push by Niantic to sustain player engagement and strengthen revenue in Q4 2025. Analysts expect that the Level 80 cap, combined with potential high-level exclusive events, will reignite competition and extend the game’s lifecycle.

For trainers, however, the message is clear: the race to Level 80 begins now. And with LocaChange’s expertise and professional-grade spoofing technology, the global community has a trusted partner to navigate this exciting new challenge.

‘The Logic of Psychology’ 2nd Edition Unveils a Bold New Framework for Understanding the Human Mind

Peter McQuaig Redefines Psychology with Groundbreaking Insights in Updated 2nd Edition

TORONTO, Ontario, Canada, Aug. 27, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — “The Logic of Psychology: Of Science at Large, and Everyday Life” (2nd Edition; ISBN: 978-1779625847; released by Tellwell Publishing) by Peter McQuaig is now available, delivering a bold new framework for understanding human psychology and its place within science. With renewed clarity and expanded insights, this updated edition repositions psychology as a discipline with its own inherent logic – giving it a unity, power, and articulation of a renewed, more befitting relationship to physical science.

Image caption: Cover, “The Logic of Psychology” 2nd Edition.

While psychology has often been viewed as a fractured field—its theories and schools of thought seemingly at odds—McQuaig shows us how this fragmentation is not inevitable. Instead, he identifies a critical oversight in classical rationality: the absence of a logic specifically applicable to psychological subject matter. His work reveals that this not only exists, but could transform psychology into a science that has a power parallel to, yet very different than, that of physics.

“Psychology has its own logic and rationality, and this is now made explicit,” says McQuaig. “With its universality and depth, this logic facilitates insight and offers a satisfying, well-founded understanding of self and world.”

The new edition of “The Logic of Psychology” expands on the original with refined explanations, broader applications, and a deeper dive into the philosophical and scientific implications of this novel framework. It speaks not only to psychologists and philosophers, but to anyone seeking a clearer understanding of human nature, cognition, and behavior.

“The Logic of Psychology is not limited in its scope to psychology proper, but has important lessons for diverse subject areas, for example, cognitive science, linguistics and philosophy. This is a ground-breaking work and a must-read for academic and layperson alike.”
— Brian Baigrie, Professor of Philosophy and author of Scientific Revolutions

“McQuaig’s conception is powerful.”
— David Bakan, Professor Emeritus of Psychology and author of The Duality of Human Existence

“Once you grasp [this], it changes everything.”
— Keiller Mackay

Peter McQuaig is a past president of the McQuaig Institute, a leading psychological consulting firm in Canada. A graduate of the University of Toronto in psychology, McQuaig has led the development of cutting-edge psychological assessments and has long studied the intersections of physical science, social science, and philosophy. “The Logic of Psychology” reflects decades of inquiry and offers essential insight for scientists, thinkers, and everyday readers alike.

“The Logic of Psychology: Of Science at Large, and Everyday Life” (2nd Edition) is available now in print and digital formats through Amazon and other major retailers.

New Jersey’s Save LBI Unveils Plan to Secure Reliable and Affordable Electricity, Urges Lawmakers to Act on Escalating Energy Crisis and Reconsider Offshore Wind Development

LONG BEACH ISLAND, N.J., Aug. 26, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Save Long Beach Island, Inc. (Save LBI), a grass-roots organization with more than 10,000 supporters dedicated to sound energy policies and preserving our shore and ocean environment, today urged the New Jersey Legislature to put politics aside and enact meaningful laws that address the mounting energy crisis and reconsider the role of offshore wind development.

Image caption: Save Long Beach Island, Inc. (Save LBI).

The organization is proposing a multifaceted plan that would:

Reduce the cost of importing electricity from PJM Interconnection by restoring affordable in-state baseload and high-demand “peaking” capacity.
Shield NJ ratepayers from high costs associated with the significant energy demands of AI data centers.
Reconsider the role of offshore wind development, a failed experiment that depends on billions of dollars in taxpayer subsidies to deliver intermittent power while destroying the environment and disrupting local shore communities.
Demonstrate leadership on greenhouse-gas reduction by increasing in-state nuclear capacity and deploying other carbon reducing measures that could be used worldwide — without mandating artificial renewable-energy quotas.

A Path to Energy Stability

“Delivering reliable, affordable energy is vital to New Jersey residents and businesses and should be the responsibility of all of the State’s elected representatives,” said Save LBI president Bob Stern. “Even before electricity rates jumped 20% in June, New Jersey rates were already among the highest in the nation at 33% above the national average. [*note 1] And two-thirds of that increase is tied to surging data-center demand across the PJM grid system [*note 2] on which the State now heavily relies.”

The State’s reliance on out-of-state power stems from the misguided belief that reliable, in-state “baseload” power could be shut down and replaced by intermittent offshore wind energy that is costly as well as damaging to the environment and local shore communities. Today, New Jersey imports more than 25% of its power (about 5,000 megawatts) [*note 3] from PJM at premium rates. By 2030, demand is projected to rise by another 1,200 megawatts — driven largely by new data centers that require steady baseload power [*note 4] — which will lead to even higher costs and potential supply shortages. [*note 5] (For more background on the impact of current energy policy, see “The Rising Cost of Electricity in New Jersey” on SaveLBI.org.)

“Save LBI is calling on the legislature to assert leadership over the NJ Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU), regardless of who occupies the Governor’s office,” Stern said. “It is the responsibility of our elected representatives — not regulators — to set energy policy.”

Save LBI’s energy plan includes five distinct actions:

Expand nuclear power. New Jersey’s nuclear facilities in Salem and Hope Creek now supply more than 20 percent of the state’s electricity and are critical to maintaining baseload reliability — the ability to generate a continuous supply of electricity across NJ. Several thousand megawatts of capacity could be added to these sites, as well as at the shuttered Oyster Creek Power Station in Lacey Township, by deploying Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and using existing transmission infrastructure. [*note 3] Under recent licensing streamlining procedures, the SMRs could come online in the 2029 to 2032 time frame.
Deploy natural gas to ensure a reliable supply of energy. Modern combined-cycle and peaking units can deliver thousands of megawatts of reliable power and could be operational within three years.
Reconsider Offshore Wind. In recent years, the industry has faced significant public opposition, escalating costs, and widespread cancellations. Offshore wind projects are heavily dependent on taxpayer subsidies, unable to meet baseload demand, interfere with the accuracy of radar used for national defense and navigation, harm coastal tourism, and pose a serious threat to marine mammals, including the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale, to name a few of the many negatives. Offshore wind is also the most expensive source of energy:
- The cost per unit (1 megawatt-hour) for offshore wind of power delivered, including grid backup and interconnection costs, is about $300, which is two to almost four times higher than nuclear ($141/MWh for large reactors, $101/MWh for small modular reactors) or combined-cycle gas ($78/MWh). [*note 6]
- The 20-year cost to New Jersey ratepayers for the current 11,000 MW offshore wind plan is staggering: $101 billion — adding roughly $11,000 per household, $95,000 per commercial user, and $796,000 per industrial user. [*note 7] And these are conservative estimates that reflect outdated, lower pricing and exclude the cost of grid backup.
- On a percentage basis, the Atlantic Shores South project (off the coast of Long Beach Island, Brigantine, and Atlantic City) alone would increase bills by 11% for residential users, 13% for commercial users, and 15% for industrial users. [*note 8]
- New Jersey’s full 11,000-megawatt plan would raise average bills by 33 percent in 2035 and 89% in 2045. [*note 9] Again, these estimates are conservative and do not factor in transmission and grid backup costs.
- State taxpayers have already spent nearly $1 billion to build the unused Paulsboro Offshore Wind Manufacturing Facility and the New Jersey Wind Port staging area in Lower Alloways Creek. Billions more may be needed for turbine removal since current rules do not obligate developers to bear that cost. The U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) has announced plans to revise leasing and permitting rules — rules that should stipulate turbine removal.
Make data centers pay their fair share. AI/data center demand is a major driver of PJM price increases. Without corrective measures, costs will continue to be unfairly shifted to households. The Legislature should direct BPU to ensure data centers cover the full cost of their demand, including transmission upgrades.
Assume a global leadership position. Climate change is a global challenge. New Jersey alone cannot make a measurable impact, but it can lead by funding a comprehensive study of greenhouse-gas reduction and climate-preparedness strategies that can be deployed worldwide, and then demonstrating and exporting the most promising solutions.

Given the status and history of offshore wind in New Jersey, the Legislature should consider rescinding the Offshore Wind Economic Development Act (OWEDA), which mandates artificial renewable energy goals, or — at a minimum — prohibit new offshore wind procurements until federal rules are revised and a plan for the removal of wind turbines is assured. (Notably, New Hampshire has already cancelled its offshore wind program.)

“All energy sources have their pluses and negatives,” concluded Stern, who served as a manager at the U.S. Department of Energy at a time when the country was looking to reduce its dependency on foreign oil. “Selecting the best mix requires consideration of many factors, including availability, reliability, cost, longevity, and long-term environmental and social impact. Whenever you base policy on just one factor — especially something like climate change that the State can’t meaningfully influence — you run into trouble.”

NotaryCam helps major credit card issuers fight fraud and reduce time to resolution with RON-based identity verification

HOUSTON, Texas, Aug. 26, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — NotaryCam®, a Stewart-owned company and a pioneering provider of remote online notarization (RON) and identity verification/authentication technology for real estate and legal transactions, today announced the continued expansion of its fraud prevention use cases within the credit card industry. Through its secure, on-demand RON platform, NotaryCam enables major U.S. card issuers to accelerate identity verification, reduce time to resolution and intervene earlier in the fraud lifecycle, often before financial losses are incurred.

Image caption: NotaryCam logo.

Global payment card fraud losses reached $33 billion in 2023 and are expected to cumulatively total more than $403 billion over the next 10 years, with a disproportionate amount occurring in the United States [*note:1]. Meanwhile, U.S.-based fraud prevention efforts remain costly and reactive. Each $1 of fraud loss costs financial firms more than $5 when accounting for investigation, recovery and operational burden [*note:2].

By integrating NotaryCam’s platform into their customer identity verification workflows, credit card issuers can shift from reactive fraud mitigation to proactive fraud prevention. For one major issuer, NotaryCam is flagging an average of 7 to 10 potentially fraudulent transactions per week, streamlining decision-making while strengthening compliance and audit trails.

“Most identity fraud is caught eventually, but it’s often too late. The financial damage has already been done,” said Brian Webster, president of NotaryCam. “By embedding RON earlier in the customer journey, NotaryCam helps card issuers detect and resolve identity mismatches before accounts are misused or fraudulent applications are approved.”

The time savings are equally significant. Before adopting RON, cardholders were required to locate and visit an in-person notary, a process that introduced delays of several days. Now, applicants can schedule and complete a secure online notarization through NotaryCam in minutes, 24/7. For example, one credit card provider uses NotaryCam to validate identities for applicants whose submissions trigger enhanced verification, while another requires identity validation before reactivating cards flagged as lost or compromised.

NotaryCam supports its credit card clients through a flexible service model: institutions can either license NotaryCam’s platform for internal use or refer customers to NotaryCam’s professional notary pool. The platform is integrated across fraud prevention, banking, deposit and card operations functions, delivering reliable performance at scale.

“With fraud attacks growing more complex and costly, card issuers need identity verification solutions that work in real time and across multiple departments,” added Webster. “NotaryCam delivers a seamless experience for both customers and compliance teams while helping issuers avoid the long-tail costs of identity fraud.”

‘My Husband Almost Killed Me’ is a powerful memoir of survival and resilience

VICTORIA, BC, Canada, Aug. 25, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — In “My Husband Almost Killed Me” (ISBN: 978-1779626462; Released June, 2025 by Tellwell Publishing), the late author Linda Beason shares her harrowing true story of abuse, survival, and the strength to rebuild a life for herself and her children. The book has already resonated with readers worldwide, appearing on more than 1,200 reader lists on Goodreads.

Image caption: “My Husband Almost Killed Me,” by the late author Linda Beason.

The memoir opens with the chilling words spoken by Linda’s husband: “If you ever leave me, I will kill the kids then I will kill you.” What follows is Linda’s candid account of seven years in a violent marriage that culminated in an attempt on her life.

Raised on a farm in Indiana, Linda’s early life was rooted in responsibility and resilience. She served three years in the Marine Corps before marrying her college sweetheart. But her marriage quickly unraveled into years of domestic abuse driven by alcohol and rage. After surviving his attempt to kill her, Linda fled with her three children to Florida, determined to protect them and find a new path forward.

“My Husband Almost Killed Me” not only reveals the private struggles of living with an abusive partner, but also speaks to other women who may feel trapped in similar circumstances. With honesty and courage, Linda reminds readers that even in the darkest times, there is always the possibility of choosing a different life.

Linda Beason passed away in 2024 before the book’s publication, but her words live on as a testament of resilience and hope for others facing toxic relationships.

Linda grew up in Indiana, studied at Purdue University, and worked in both agriculture and accounting for companies such as the Green Giant Company. She was also a proud veteran of the United States Marine Corps. Her life story reflects not only hardship, but also perseverance, faith, and the love she carried for her family.

City of Dania Beach Selects RMA to Prepare CRA Operational Analysis

DANIA BEACH, Fla., Aug. 25, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — RMA (rma.us.com), a leading economic development firm, has been awarded a contract by the Dania Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) to assess the current operations of the Agency, as well as identify strategic economic opportunities.

Singapore firm challenges industry giants with breakthrough technology that cuts multi-gigabyte transfer times from hours to minutes

SINGAPORE, Aug. 22, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Raysync, an established provider of enterprise file transfer solutions, today announced significant performance benchmarks that position its proprietary UDP Transfer Protocol as a game-changing alternative to traditional file transfer methods. Independent testing shows Raysync’s technology delivers transfer speeds up to 100 times faster than conventional FTP protocols, enabling enterprises to transfer multi-terabyte datasets in minutes rather than hours.

Image caption: Raysync: The smarter way to move big data.

The breakthrough addresses a critical bottleneck facing data-intensive industries including media production, scientific research, manufacturing, and financial services, where large file transfers often create project delays and operational inefficiencies.

“Traditional file transfer methods weren’t designed for today’s massive data requirements,” said Jack Zhou, CTO at Raysync. “While competitors focus on incremental improvements to legacy protocols, we’ve built a fundamentally different approach. Our clients regularly transfer 100GB+ files in under 10 minutes—something that would take hours using standard methods.”

PROVEN PERFORMANCE IN ENTERPRISE ENVIRONMENTS

Raysync’s technology has been battle-tested across diverse industries since 2017, with clients reporting:

Media & Entertainment: 4K/8K video file transfers reduced from 6 hours to 15 minutes
Manufacturing: CAD file synchronization between global offices accelerated by 95%
Research Institutions: Multi-terabyte scientific datasets transferred 50x faster than previous solutions

The software’s core differentiators include:

Breakthrough Speed: Proprietary UDP Transfer Protocol achieves consistent high-performance transfers regardless of distance or network conditions, with speeds regularly exceeding 10 Gbps on standard enterprise networks
Enterprise-Grade Security: Bank-grade TLS 1.3 encryption ensures data integrity without compromising transfer speed—a common trade-off in legacy solutions
Zero-Disruption Integration: Seamless deployment within existing IT infrastructure without requiring network architecture changes or specialized hardware
Intelligent Automation Features: Advanced P2P transfer capabilities and auto-sync functions streamline workflows, enabling seamless file distribution across multiple endpoints without manual intervention

MARKET DISRUPTION IN $2.8 BILLION FILE TRANSFER INDUSTRY

Raysync’s approach challenges established players like Aspera and Signiant by offering enterprise-grade performance at a fraction of traditional licensing costs. The company’s growth trajectory—serving Fortune 500 clients across 40+ countries—demonstrates market demand for next-generation file transfer solutions.

“The file transfer industry has been dominated by incremental improvements to 30-year-old protocols,” Zhou continued. “We’re not just faster—we’re fundamentally reimagining how large-scale data movement should work in modern enterprise environments.”

IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY AND DEMONSTRATION

Companies seeking to eliminate file transfer bottlenecks can schedule live demonstrations showcasing Raysync’s performance advantages with their actual data workloads. The platform offers flexible deployment options including on-premises and cloud configurations.

For companies wishing to see a demonstration of Raysync’s capabilities, please get in touch with us here.

About Raysync

Established in 2017, Raysync specializes in high-performance enterprise file transfer solutions that eliminate data movement bottlenecks for global organizations.

EZpooling – Sole Provider of Lottery Pools in AZ Celebrates 30 Years

PHOENIX, Ariz., Aug. 22, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — PowerPick Players Club is the oldest and most established lottery service provider in the USA, with an A+ Rating by the Better Business Bureau. Today it celebrates its 30th year providing players with more chances of winning jackpots and other large prizes through its website ezpooling.com.

Photo caption: Andy & Judy Amada, Founders, PowerPick, Inc.

The website offers lottery pools in Powerball, Mega Millions, Fantasy 5 and The Pick and Scratcher tickets. Players just click a button to instantly join a pool with other Arizona players. By participating in a pool, the costs of the tickets are shared so that players can share up to 100 tickets for as little as $3.25. And with today’s jackpots, players can still win millions or tens of millions.

“Lottery Pools provide players with more chances of winning than any other way of playing – It’s simply the smartest, most entertaining and least expensive way of playing,” said Andy Amada, of PowerPick, Inc. “Those who pool see more winning tickets than any other way of playing. Traditional purchases, with only one or two tickets are very unsatisfying to most players because they see no winners drawing after drawing after drawing. That rarely happens with lottery pools due to the volume of tickets in each pool.”

It All Began in 1994:

It was holiday time and the lottery jackpot was high. Andy’s nephew asked him if he could buy tickets for the family and they would pool their money together, share the tickets and the winnings. And so the idea of PowerPick Players Club was born. It took a year to program and started in 1995.

“Uncle” Andy took that idea and turned it into the one and only Lottery Pooling Service of its kind in the country. PowerPick has evolved over the 30 years into what the family believes is the best and easiest way to play the lottery games offered by the State of Arizona.

What started as three selections has grown to HUNDREDS. Pick your game, pick your group size, decide when to play. PowerPick does all the work. Players just click a button.

Based in Phoenix, Arizona, PowerPick Players Club gives players an opportunity to play with hundreds more tickets in Powerball and other jackpot games for only pennies per ticket by pooling with others.

“It’s all about more tickets, more winners, and more excitement,” said Amada.

PowerPick is not a lottery and does not sell lottery tickets. It provides a pooling service to players throughout Arizona. So, all those who don’t work in large office environments, where pooling is more accessible, can also enjoy the benefits of pooling.

Although PowerPick has a brick-and-mortar location, players throughout Arizona are able to join a lottery pool through PowerPick’s ordering website https://www.ezpooling.com/.

CONTACT INFO:

Players within Arizona who are at least 21 years old can also reach PowerPick at 602-995-9200 or 800-274-7529. Email contact is azplayers@powerpick.com. Office – 8024 N. 24th Ave Suite B, Phoenix, AZ 85021. (NE corner of I-17 & Northern).

DISCLAIMER:

PowerPick operates independently from the Arizona Lottery and makes no claim of any state endorsement or affiliation.

“Our goal is to ensure every Chandler resident—no matter their background—has access to resources, mentorship and opportunities to start and grow their own business,” Tapia said.

Attendees responded positively to the event, with many saying they finally felt seen, supported and connected. “There’s relief knowing these programs exist,” one participant shared. “I don’t feel like I’m building my business alone anymore.”

Chandler continues to stand out as a hub for entrepreneurial growth, consistently ranking among Arizona’s top cities for startup activity and small business support, according to state and regional data.

“Chandler is proud to foster a welcoming and inclusive business environment where every entrepreneur can access the tools, networks and opportunities they need to succeed.

New Jersey’s Save LBI Applauds Federal Offshore Energy Process Reform, Calls for Early Public Engagement and Major Rule Revisions

LONG BEACH ISLAND, N.J., Aug. 21, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Save Long Beach Island, Inc. (Save LBI), a grass-roots organization with more than 10,000 supporters dedicated to sound energy policies and preserving our shore and ocean environment, today praised the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) Secretary Douglas Burgum for announcing a long overdue overhaul of the federal rules governing offshore renewable energy development on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS).

Photo caption: Visual simulation of what the Atlantic Shores South project would look from Holgate on Long Beach Island, NJ. Source: Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM).

The group, which has long raised concerns about a flawed decision-making process that has resulted in unbalanced and environmentally damaging offshore projects, welcomed the Department’s August 7 announcement as a critical step toward restoring transparency, accountability, and alignment with the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA).

“This reform effort is a clear response to concerns we raised in our July 2025 petition calling for cancellation of the Atlantic Shores South and North lease areas off the coast of Long Beach Island, Brigantine, and Atlantic City,” said Dr. Bob Stern, president of Save LBI. (The petition is available at https://www.savelbi.org/communications.) “We thank Secretary Burgum for his leadership in reexamining a regulatory framework that has failed both communities and the environment.”

In a letter of August 11, 2025, Stern urged the DOI to create an early opportunity for stakeholder engagement — before the draft rules are written — through mechanisms such as an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM). This would allow community advocates, scientists, industry, and local governments to offer innovative solutions while the new regulations are still being shaped, instead of after draft regulatory language is published.

Image caption: Save Long Beach Island (Save LBI) logo.

The organization highlighted several key reforms it believes must be included in the new rules:

Flip the Wind Energy Area Designation Process: Define off-limits zones for wind development upfront based on clear criteria, such as distance from shorelines, military radar, and whale migration corridors.
End Segmented Decision-Making: Require integrated project proposals linking location and project design, evaluated through a single regional environmental impact statement treating all proposals in a region as alternatives, to enable fair, transparent, legally required comparisons.
Strengthen Marine Mammal Protections: Establish rigorous, standardized methods for calculating potential harm, developed jointly with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Mandate Turbine Removal: Require enforceable removal plans and financial assurances to prevent abandoned offshore structures.

“Flawed siting decisions and a dismissive approval process have fueled public outcry,” Stern concluded. “If this rulemaking is to succeed, the process must be transparent, science-based, and responsive to the communities most affected.”

Save LBI pledged to contribute policy expertise and constructive solutions throughout the reform effort.

‘Unforgiving Thresholds’ – Book Five in ‘The Shaman Speaks’ Series by Don Trudeau Calls Urgent Attention to Humanity’s Tipping Points

WHITEHORSE, Yukon, Canada, Aug. 19, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Ojibwe of Ontario elder, storyteller, and author Don Trudeau announces the release of “Unforgiving Thresholds” (ISBN: 978-1834182582), the fifth installment in his acclaimed ‘The Shaman Speaks’ series. Drawing on more than seven decades of observation as a Shaman in the First Nation depiction, Trudeau offers a powerful warning about the environmental, social, and spiritual crises that humanity has brought upon itself.

Image caption: Cover, ‘Unforgiving Thresholds’ – Book Five in ‘The Shaman Speaks’ Series by Don Trudeau.

“Given that Mother Nature tends to correct unfavorable exceptions of the whole, then change is in order, soon to come,” Trudeau writes. In “Unforgiving Thresholds,” he explores how humanity’s actions have created ripples – like stones thrown into a pond – that expand outward, merging into an unstoppable collapse of thresholds. Some readers may revisit the book’s message multiple times, while others may only see its truth when events make its warnings undeniable.

WHY HE WROTE THE BOOK

“My book is about the many thresholds that mankind is currently witnessing the results of, setting the stage for our own downfall,” says Trudeau. “Mankind’s rise in numbers, polluting habits has gone unchecked for millennia, placing us outside the environmental balance to contribute to a healthy world.”

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Don Trudeau was taught observance from a young age and has practiced it throughout his 78 years. As a Shaman, he has witnessed profound changes in wildlife, climate, economy, health, weather patterns, and catastrophic land events. He served as a caretaker at Fort Selkirk in the Yukon where he worked to preserve Indigenous history through storytelling and the written word.

“Unforgiving Thresholds” joins previous volumes in ‘The Shaman Speaks’ series, including “The Shaman Speaks, Volume 1: Gather You My Wisdom,” “Volume 2: The Teachings” and “Volume 3: The Elder’s Tears.” With more books in progress and planned, the series remains a vital part of Trudeau’s mission to pass on the wisdom, traditions, and cautionary lessons of the First Nations People.

AVAILABILITY

“Unforgiving Thresholds” is available now through Amazon and other major booksellers.

Life Plan Humboldt Unveils Humboldt Commons, a National Model for Community-based Aging

MCKINLEYVILLE, Calif., Aug. 19, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Life Plan Humboldt (LPH), the nonprofit organization creating Humboldt County’s first resident-driven senior living community, proudly announces the name of its first community: Humboldt Commons. The name was selected from more than 300 submissions gathered through a community-wide naming campaign that invited the entire Humboldt community to participate.

Photo Caption: Life Plan Humboldt volunteers look out at the McKinleyville location of their new senior community, Humboldt Commons. Photo by JoAnn Schuch.

Hundreds of neighbors, friends, and future residents shared ideas reflecting the North Coast’s core values of local connection, nature, simplicity, sustainability, and community. “Commons” appeared in many of the suggestions, emphasizing mutual support and shared spaces. Ultimately, “Humboldt Commons” was chosen to acknowledge pride of place—symbolizing independence, self-reliance, and a willingness to innovate.

“We heard from many in our community that the name ‘Life Plan Humboldt’ wasn’t a welcoming name,” said Dr. Ann Lindsay, Board President. “Our new name reflects warmth, local identity, and the community spirit of what we’re creating together.”

Founded in 2020 through a grassroots effort, LPH is one of only a few community-led senior living developments in the country. With the purchase of 14.58 acres in the McKinleyville Town Center now complete, plans are advancing for a campus of approximately 101 cottages and apartments, purpose-built to support independence, active lifestyles, and community connection.

Residents will enjoy walking paths, gardens, communal dining areas, and social opportunities, all rooted in a mission of environmental sustainability and aging in place.

Part of the McKinleyville property will be used to include an affordable housing component that will redefine what inclusion can look like in senior living. LPH is working with Rural Community Housing Development Corporation (RCH) to develop a two-acre portion of the site for up to 50 affordable senior apartments. The plan is to have RCH nonprofit build and manage that part of the site, and residents of those homes would have access to the same amenities and activities as all others on campus—an approach rarely seen in traditional senior housing.

“This is about more than housing,” said Lindsay. “It’s about building a village, one that reflects Humboldt’s values of care, community, and resilience.”

With a name that honors both place and purpose, Humboldt Commons will move forward with development in phases. Architects are currently refining site plans based on feedback from a recent survey sent to more than 4,000 potential residents in Humboldt County. A Welcome Center is slated to open in McKinleyville later this year, and a Future Residents List will be launched to help interested individuals track progress and express their interest.

Construction could begin as soon as 2026, with the community expected to open in 2028.

ABOUT HUMBOLDT COMMONS (A community developed by Life Plan Humboldt):

Founded by a local grassroots effort, Humboldt Commons will be the region’s first nonprofit community committed to establishing Humboldt County’s first and only resident-driven senior lifestyle community for adults aged 62+. The community of cottages and apartments will be built on a walkable 14.6-acre site in the McKinleyville Town Center and will feature many walking paths and gardens, communal spaces for dining and activities, an outdoor area for food, music, and events, and more. A separate nonprofit will develop affordable senior residences on the same campus. Construction could begin as early as 2026, with the community opening as soon as 2028.

California Parents, Guardians, and Teachers: Opt-In for School Pesticide Notifications

LOS ANGELES, Calif., Aug. 18, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — California Safe Schools, a nonprofit dedicated to children’s environmental health and safety, reminds parents, guardians, teachers and school staff at all California K-12 public schools and child care centers to file the Right to Know Pesticide Use Notification form at the start of the school year. This form is mandated under California legislation, The Healthy Schools Act.

Image caption: California Safe Schools.

Filing this form with your school office ensures you receive advance notification of any pesticide applications in or around the school site. It is a critical safeguard and part of each school’s commitment to maintaining a safe and healthy learning environment.

Under The Healthy Schools Act, a “schoolsite” is defined as:

Any facility used for public day care, kindergarten, elementary, or secondary school purposes. The term includes the buildings or structures, playgrounds, athletic fields, school vehicles, or any other area of school property visited or used by pupils. “Schoolsite” does not include postsecondary educational facilities attended by secondary pupils or private day care or school facilities.

The Right to Know Notification requires schools to provide at least 72 hours’ advance notice before any pesticide application on a campus.

Emergency Applications: In rare cases when pesticides must be used immediately to address a health or safety emergency, schools may apply them without the standard 72-hour advance notice. However, The Healthy Schools Act requires that the school district designee make every effort to provide the required notification even under emergency conditions.

Filing the Right to Know Pesticide Use Notification with your school’s Main Office ensures you will receive alerts before applications occur. This allows parents, guardians or teachers to make informed decisions on application days. Importantly, notification can be requested for any reason, not solely for known health concerns.

HISTORY

The Right to Know Pesticide Use Notification program began with the Los Angeles Unified School District’s (LAUSD) groundbreaking Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Policy in 1999. This policy embraces the Precautionary Principle – the idea that if an action or policy has a suspected risk of causing harm to the public or environment, precautionary measures should be taken even without conclusive scientific evidence. As part of this approach, LAUSD has not used Roundup for more than 20 years, setting an important precedent in protecting children’s health. The success of the LAUSD IPM policy led directly to the passage of The California Healthy Schools Act of 2000.

The “Right to Know” notifications are a critical tool that ensures parents, guardians, teachers and staff remain informed, connected, and empowered within their school community. For more information about pesticide application policies at your school, visit your school’s website or contact the school or school district directly” said Robina Suwol, founder and executive director of California Safe Schools.
