Sharon Personal Care Reveals New Products to be Introduced at in-cosmetics® global 2023

Sharon Personal Care

Sharon Personal Care, a global supplier of ingredient solutions for a broad range of personal care products, revealed the new products it will introduce at the in-cosmetics ® global event, taking place March 28-30, 2023, in Barcelona, Spain. Representatives from Sharon Personal Care will be at the event to introduce Pantrofina ® J-Gravity, a new ingredient to combat the effects of gravity on the skin and Emulpharma ® Mimesis, a green emulsifier that makes skin care ingredients more effective. Sharon is also expanding its SharoSENSE™ with a new preservation offering. Attendees can visit Sharon Personal Care in Stand R50 to learn about these new products as well as the company's complete line of beauty and personal care solutions. "Pantrofina J-Gravity stands out due to its innovative use of lavender essential oils as the primary carrier for quercetin, the main component found in bancha tea leaf extract, which can inhibit MMPs via Zn+ chelation," says Naama Eylon, CEO of Sharon Personal Care. "Typically, aromatherapy is considered a means of utilizing essential oils to achieve physical and mental wellness goals. However, with Pantrofina J-Gravity, we're going beyond that and exploring the physiological mechanisms that underpin the science behind essential oils, which is closely linked to cell-carrier technology." Pantrofina J-Gravity is a natural ingredient, palm-free, and derived from the extraction process of bancha tea in lavender essential oils. It has demonstrated excellent anti-aging properties during in-vivo testing, which also found that the ingredient redefines facial contour and decreases the depth of wrinkles in the eye area. Emulpharma Mimesis, Sharon's new green emulsifier, is based on a proprietary combination of lecithin and polyglycerols and is capable of creating a light and sprayable texture for skin care products. It creates lamellar structures that can form micelles with high skin affinity-and therefore high penetration capacity-which enables it to transport active ingredients across the skin barrier. The active ingredients contained in the formulation can then reach sub-epidermal layers more effectively and selectively. This allows for more economical use of ingredients in formulations. This new emulsifier is easy to use, energy efficient, and can be cold-processed in a "one-pot" procedure, greatly simplifying manufacturing practices and making processes more environmentally friendly. Its light, sensory profile helps it to adapt to a wide range of applications, from Asian beauty routines to baby care formulations. The new addition to the SharoSENSE line is Preservation from NATURE. Created in a lab, it answers the market demand for green and clean INCI preservation that is high in efficacy and safety. Sharon will present a line of preservation solutions that are COSMOS-approved, hydro soluble, broad spectrum and that are highly effective at a use level of lower than one percent. The products in the SharoSENSE line are odorless and colorless and are globally approved, including China compliance.

Sharon will introduce Preservation from NATURE, a new addition to its SharoSENSE™ line of preservatives, during in-cosmetics global 2023. Sharon Personal Care’s Emulpharma ® Mimesis will be introduced at in-cosmetics global 2023. It is a green emulsifier that makes skin care ingredients more effective.

Greene Concepts Secures New Retail Distribution to Five Hundred Grocery Stores

Greene Concepts, Inc.

McapMediaWire - - Greene Concepts, Inc. (OTC: INKW) is pleased to announce it has finalized a retail and distribution agreement with Merchants Distributors (MDI) and Lowes Foods. Both entities will shelf and carry BE WATER’s TM new six-pack configurations throughout the Eastern U.S. with a reach of nearly 500 grocery outlets. Distribution to the new retailers occurs March through late-April. The agreement includes 400 independent stores covered by MDI and 80+ Lowes Foods Stores throughout the region. 380 of the 650 MDI stores will utilize BE WATER planograms, a schematic tool used to plan a retail store layout. Planograms place special attention on product placement and displays, as well as point-of-sale locations. Brian Adkins, Greene Concepts Sales Consultant, notes, “We have worked aggressively to achieve the first large-scale grocery distribution deal for BE WATER. MDI and Lowes Foods are fantastic partners and I am very pleased that they see the value in bringing on our BE WATER six-packs. It takes time to secure retail relationships and share with distributors and retailers the benefits of BE WATER and its appeal to consumers. We have been able to secure both accounts resulting in the aggressive movement of BE WATER production and distribution. This is a significant step forward for us all.” Brian Adkins continues, “We have almost tripled Greene Concepts’ footprint of BE WATER throughout the country to bring the total store count of BE WATER to over 800 stores nationally. The availability of six-packs increases the entry point for consumers to purchase BE WATER at a reduced cost. Because of MDI and Lowes Foods, BE WATER will be seen and purchased by a larger audience before the end of April and I could not be happier for the company, our customers, and especially for Greene Concepts shareholders. Thank you for continuing to believe in us and in our progression together.” Lenny Greene, CEO of Greene Concepts, states, “The timing of these new distribution and retail deals coincides with the release of our new six-pack configuration which passed our sample tests and will come off the line in full production and begin reaching MDI and Lowes Foods stores in March with availability at each of their locations by the end of April. We are thrilled to have our BE WATER product line reach new audiences while vastly increasing our revenues and product reach. I would like to give a special thanks to Brian for making this happen and am blessed to have him as part of the Greene Concepts team.

Angie Avers Shares Why She Left Corporate World to Buy & Grow Minuteman Press Franchise in Phoenix, AZ

Minuteman Press International Inc

Angie Avers has owned her Minuteman Press franchise in Phoenix, Arizona since July of 2021. In this interview, Angie shares how she no longer felt valued as an employee working for others, why she felt comfortable taking the leap into business ownership with Minuteman Press, and how she has successfully grown her business. Angie’s Minuteman Press center is located at 2432 W. Peoria Ave., Suite 1023, Phoenix, AZ 85029. What does it mean to you to be a business owner? Why did you choose Minuteman Press? Angie Avers: “I left the corporate environment after nearly 30 years because I was tired of working for someone else and not feeling valued as an employee. I also struggled with finding a new job for over 2 years as well. One day on LinkedIn, the Minuteman Press opportunity presented itself and I inquired about it. I thought to myself, I have nothing to lose at this point so why not? I was later contacted by Brady Rockwell from the Minuteman Press Int’l team and it all started to become real. I started to panic and almost walked away from this opportunity, but after looking at what Minuteman Press International has accomplished and what they were about, I was sold! I knew they wouldn’t judge me for my age or my background and the key part of it all was ‘we’ll train you.’ My background is in marketing and communications, and why wouldn’t I want to help other business owners build their business with print and promotional products? I thought “this is a no brainer!” What has the support from Minuteman Press International been like for you? Angie Avers: “Minuteman support has been great. Whenever I have a problem with FLEX the team always helps me and if I have other issues, I’m always directed to the correct person. There is so much information in FLEX that I still would like to learn even more. Jack Panzer, my local RVP in Arizona, and Sky Hittle, our Field Rep, are always there to help and be there for when I need help or they direct me to where I need to be.” What do you think sets you apart from the competition? Angie Avers: “I describe my business as a ‘full-service print and marketing design company exclusively ran by women.’ We have a plethora of resources at our fingertips and if we can’t do it in-house, we always have resources to help. I believe what sets us apart is our strong work ethic, our honesty with our customers, and our customer service.” What are your high-demand products and key growth areas? Angie Avers: “It’s really hard to say what our high-demand products are. Our core is still paper products, but we are growing other areas. One area we have grown substantially is our design services. New business owners come into our shop all the time. We discuss what their initial needs are and we start with their logo and colors. From there, we build upon what their other needs are and help them brand other products they may need for their business. One customer comes to mind, where we started from scratch with their logo, then brochures and flyers, labels, and now trade show equipment and promotional products. It’s been super fun helping them build their brand and grow their business.” What are some of the key ways you’ve grown your business? Angie Avers: “One of the biggest ways I grew my business was through an acquisition and it doubled my business last year. I also network with BNI and other organizations when I have a chance. I have started doing more email marketing now that my learning curve has minimized some. Our foot traffic into the shop has also grown. When I took over the business, we put up all new window graphics and added two 14-ft. flags in front of the shop which is located on a main road. We have customers tell us all the time they saw our flags outside.” Why do you think printing remains so vital to businesses today? Angie Avers: “Print is vital because without it, everything would just be shapes and images. A world cannot go without print. We wouldn’t even know how to read if we didn’t have print. So, it is vital for sure.” What are the biggest personal and professional rewards of owning your business? Angie Avers: “Personally, I like answering to myself and making myself accountable for what is happening in my business. I thrive on giving my all to our customers and having a team that gets the job done without me chasing after them all the time. My goal is to be a million-dollar shop before I retire and professionally speaking, I just love helping businesses in my community come alive and building those relationships to sell other products.” What advice would you give to other business owners right now? Angie Avers: “Do your research, put together your pros and cons on being a business owner, and while it’s scary to take the plunge, you’ll never know unless you try. Change is hard for a lot of people, but you don’t grow staying in the same place where you are unhappy. Challenge yourself to be the best you. I did and it was the best decision I ever made. I love what I’m doing, and I wouldn’t change it for anything.” Angie Avers’ Minuteman Press franchise is located at 2432 W. Peoria Ave., Suite 1023, Phoenix, AZ 85029.

Shareholder Activist: Entire Disney Board Presided Over Last Year’s Disaster and Does Not Deserve Re-election

National Legal & Policy Center

National Legal and Policy Center, a shareholder in The Walt Disney Company, is calling upon investors in the company to take the extreme step of voting to oppose the entire slate of nominees for the board of directors, all of whom are carryovers that presided over the entertainment giant’s worst year since the 1970s. That’s right – after Disney emerged from a disastrous 2022 that saw extremists take control of their programming, the degradation of its valuable intellectual and creative properties, and the worst performance of its stock price since 1974, all the existing directors (minus one) have decided that each of them deserves to return to their company oversight roles. The Disney annual meeting is on April 3. NLPC is sponsoring Proposal No. 5, which asks the board to produce a report that identifies and itemizes the company’s risks from its extensive business ties to China. NLPC also issued an extensive memorandum for shareholders, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednesday, that outlines why the directors – including CEO Robert Iger – don’t deserve another term after Disney’s dysfunctional 2022, in which they extended the contract of former CEO Bob Chapek mid-year, only to terminate him within five months. The report also highlights several concerns pertaining to the company’s exposure in communist China. Following are excerpts from the memorandum to shareholders that was filed at the SEC on Wednesday: Disney – with its wealth of creative intellectual properties, automatic revenue generators at theme parks all over the planet, and nearly recession-proof entertainment- and media-delivery mechanisms – has seen an inexplicable decline in shareholder returns compared to the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index. As of January 10, 2023, the Company’s share price fell short against the Wall Street measuring stick over one year (by 24 percent), three years (by 60 percent), five years (by 66 percent), and ten years (by 116 percent). By March 15, 2023 – the date of the filing of this report with the SEC – the share price had descended even lower. Only two years ago Disney stock traded at its eight-year peak – $197.16 – and over the course of 2022, its value dropped by 44 percent. It was the worst year for the Company’s stock since 1974… The Company has squandered, wasted, devalued and ruined much of its content and beloved brands with the pursuit of a far-left political agenda – known in current-day parlance as “wokeness.” For that and because of those poor business decisions, we call for an overhaul of the current board, and also seek support for our own proposal (“Report on Operations Related to China”)…. Disney’s executive suite and its Board have allowed its signature brands and its once-beloved properties to become infected with divisive political agendas…. This is untenable for a Company that built its reputation on family-friendly programming and offerings, if it hopes to continue to attract a broad swath of viewers and customers…. While Disney was more than willing to go to battle (with Mr. Iger’s blessing) against Florida over the parental rights bill that opponents falsely nicknamed the “Don’t Say Gay” bill, the Company proactively waved the surrender flag in order to access TV audiences in the Muslim world….The Company only cares to “fight” for LGBTQ+ rights where they are free to do so. Otherwise, Disney is perfectly happy to bend its “principles” at the behest of dictators and oppressors in pursuit of revenues…. Mr. Iger has come under criticism for his succession planning…. Shareholder Abigail Disney (whose politics largely align with Mr. Iger’s), granddaughter of Company co-founder Roy O. Disney and grandniece of Walt, told Time in November, “The bottom line is that this was very poor succession planning and the onus of that has to land squarely on Bob Iger’s shoulders as well as the shoulders of the board of directors.” She also said, “I hope it triggers some reflection at the board level because ultimately, this is the board’s job, to hire and fire CEOs. I hope to see something better happening next time around. I hope Bob [Iger] has one foot out the door. The brand is taking a terrible beating right now for a lot of reasons….” “Disney shareholders may think we’re crazy for asking that they oppose the entire board’s re-election, but all the vote means is that it is a statement of no-confidence,” said Paul Chesser, director of NLPC’s Corporate Integrity Project. “After the company’s catastrophic 2022 and the persistent mundane performance of its share price, the current directors have failed miserably. A signal from shareholders would force them to revisit their board makeup and tell them to refresh their ranks.” You can read NLPC’s shareholder proposal on China risks at its website, and the full memorandum to Disney shareholders at the SEC website. Founded in 1991, NLPC promotes ethics in public life and government accountability through research, investigation, education, and legal action. ### For more information or to schedule an interview with Paul Chesser, contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or drene@nlpc.org.

American Center for Cures Co-Founder Appointed by President Biden to National Cancer Advisory Board

The American Center for Cures

The American Center for Cures (ACC) today announced its long-time partner and co-founder Dr. Richard Boxer has been selected by President Joseph Biden to the National Cancer Advisory Board. In this role, Dr. Boxer will use his years of medical expertise to help guide the Director of the National Cancer Institute in the development of the organization’s national cancer research. Along with venerated entrepreneur Lou Weisbach, Dr. Boxer co-founded the ACC as a bipartisan initiative that aims to unite medicine, science, pharmaceuticals, business, and government to seek out new treatments and cures for Alzheimer’s, diabetes, Parkinson’s, mental diseases, many forms of cancer, and several others. “Richard Boxer and I have worked together on this important endeavor for more than a decade. It’s an honor to see him elevated to the National Cancer Advisory Board,” said Lou Weisbach, CEO and Co-Founder of ACC. “I’ve been working in a bipartisan way with leaders of both parties and the quote from Tom Price, former Secretary of Health, tells you all you need to know about our mission: ‘When this plan is approved it will rival the greatest achievements in US history and offer the sense of urgency that all American families yearn for and deserve when battling disease.’” Dr. Boxer, a UCLA Clinical Professor and Co-Founder of the American Center for Cures added: “I’ve dedicated my professional career to compassionate and uncompromising care for cancer patients and educating the public and the medical community and preventing and curing disease is a critical single issue that all Americans can agree on. As a practicing urologist treating cancer patients and cancer survivor myself, the mission of the ACC and my role in its success is very personal.” Dr. Boxer, a Clinical Professor at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, himself a three-time cancer survivor, has been practicing medicine for 44 years, caring for more than 7,000 patients with cancer and tens of thousands of patients with other illnesses. He represented the U.S. at the World Health Organization as a private citizen, a finalist for Surgeon General of the United States in both a Democratic and Republican Administration, and he was recently on the Board of Directors of the American Society of Clinical Oncology Conquer Cancer Foundation. Dr. Boxer has published nearly 100 journal articles and book chapters on medical research and has also written extensively on health policy in national press outlets. He helped create the initial clinical protocols for telemedicine, becoming the Chief Medical Officer of numerous telemedicine companies. In April 2021, he was awarded the Distinguished Alumni Award by the University of Wisconsin’s Medical School, its highest honor. “This is a critical single issue that all Americans can agree on, whether they be black or white, rich or poor, Democrat or Republican,” declared Weisbach. “With kudos to all medical breakthroughs of the past, we still haven’t gotten the job done in a business-like fashion as a nation when it comes to prevention and cures. That ends today. We are not asking congress or both parties to move forward on this initiative, we are insisting that it be passed unanimously. This issue impacts all 335 million Americans in the same way, including everyone in The White House, as well as members of Congress and their families. If we cannot unite on this issue as Americans, then I submit there are no issues on which we can unite.” About American Center for Cures The American Center for Cures (ACC) initiative is a fully funded mission to prevent, treat or cure diseases that plague every American family. The initiative will be funded by the sale of $750B bonds by the Federal Reserve, providing the capital needed to accelerate the current trajectory of medicine. Annual interest will be paid through the licensing of new compounds and drugs to pharmaceutical companies. The principal will be repaid by savings provided to the United States Government through successes in the areas of prevention and cures. The ACC business model will cost the government and taxpayers nothing, making this the single most impactful investment on behalf of the American people in the nation’s history.
