Weekend Unlimited Strengthens Cash Position Through Sale of Property in Washington, Redirects Capital from Northern Lights Organics to Oklahoma Operations, and Responds to OTC Inquiry

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 26, 2020 / Weekend Unlimited Industries Inc. ("Weekend" or the "Company") (CSE:POT)(FSE:0OS2)(OTCQB:WKULF)

Sale of Property in Washington

Weekend is pleased to announce it has strengthened its cash position through the sale of its facility and equipment in Wenatchee, Washington. The transaction was for a total of USD$400,000, with USD$300,000 paid at the completion of the property transfer and the remaining USD$100,000 distributed over 12 consecutive monthly payments commencing in January of 2021.

Weekend purchased this facility in 2018 and from that date it has not served in any active operations for the company. The purchasers will rent the facility to licensed cannabis producers who will formulate Weekend Unlimited Products once the transfer application has been approved to this new address.

"The sale of our Washington facility comes at the right time when this capital can be used to further develop our growing operations in Oklahoma," said Chris Backus, President and CEO. "The deal we've made still allows WKND! brands to have a footprint in Washington. We believe this is the best decision to continue to grow Weekend as a revenue generating company for our investors."

Reallocation of Capital from Northern Lights Organics to Oklahoma

Weekend's Executives and Board of Directors have unanimously decided to redirect the 2020 operational budget from Northern Lights Organics to our revenue generating Oklahoma operations.

With a recent surge of biomass production and decrease in biomass price in the Canadian hemp industry, Weekend determined the risk of further pursuing Northern Lights Organics operations this year was not in the best interest of the company and its investors.

The business model to plant, harvest, dry, and transport hemp from 40 acres was projected to exceed Cdn$350,000 while wholesale cost of distillate has significantly decreased as volume floods the market making Weekend's profitability uncertain.

Additionally, the operational plans to dry harvested biomass called for several employees to work in small enclosed greenhouses with industrial sized dryers circulating air which would be contrary to safe and recommended COVID-19 prevention measures.

"Weekend's management team strongly believe this is the most strategic decision we could make at this time." stated Chris Backus, President and CEO. "WKND! And Orchard Heights Cannabis brands are growing dramatically in Oklahoma and we believe our efforts and capital are best allocated to a proven business model that is earning Weekend growing and consistent profits. This decision is a strong positive for the company and we are very excited and optimistic about our growing footprint in Oklahoma."

"Strengthening our cash position, and re-allocating capital to Oklahoma, could not come at a better time given our recently announced letter of intent with Ruby Maes," said CEO, Chris Backus. "We are simply making a methodical decision to move cash from a crop commodity asset with several uncertain factors, and place it into Oklahoma operations which is proven by its month-over-month revenue growth to have less risk and more upside".

Response to OTC Inquiry

Weekend Unlimited provides the following information about its marketing and promotional activities ("Marketing Activities") at the request of OTC Markets.

On June 22nd, 2020 the Company engaged Emerging Markets Consulting LLC on June 22nd, to assist with promotional marketing to raise the Company profile among investors and email campaigns. Emerging markets wrote an article that made reference to the Company's previously reported revenue increases and offered additional non-Weekend focused macro projections of the cannabis industry. Specifically, the company confirms that the disclosed revenue numbers in the Emerging Markets article are neither false nor materially misleading and that such statements were accurate and correspond to the Company's press release issued on June 15th, 2020 which was approved by the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC). With respect to Emerging Market's overall Cannabis Industry projections the company has no reason to believe those are inaccurate and received assurance from Emerging Markets that such information had been subject to review by Emerging Markets legal council. Although the Emerging Market article disclosed that it was a paid advertisement by Weekend Unlimited, the company has instructed Emerging markets to more clearly identify in the future that their campaigns are paid promotional features funded by the Company and to include the full company name in the headers of all email campaigns. The company does not believe the services provided by Emerging Markets had a direct and significant impact on trading activity on the OTC Company's stock or the market price thereof. Any increase on trading activity is most likely attributable to the company's recent and publicly disclosed financial results.

The Company's management, led by the Company's CEO, has overseen all Marketing Activities respecting the Company. Since listing on the OTCQB the Company believes it has complied with the OTC Markets Group policies on stock promotion. The Company has been successful in achieving operational milestones for its business, and since completing its initial public offering, it has issued many press releases disclosing these achievements. These press releases form part of the Company's public disclosure record with the Canadian securities regulators, and are available with the Company's other public filings under its profile at www.sedar.com.

All Directors, officers and insiders of the Company are required to report their trades by filing insider reports with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities. These reports are available for review at www.sedi.ca. All such trades – including those which have taken place over the past 90 days – have been reported on SEDI in compliance with applicable securities laws. The Company also confirms there is no purchases of the Company's stock by Third Party Providers over the past 90 days.

The following is a list of all third party providers who have been engaged directly by the Company to provide investor relations services, public relations services, marketing, or other related services including the promotion of the Company or its securities in the last 12 months: Emerging Markets Consulting, Hybrid Financial, Investing Channel, Investor News Network, Stockhouse, FYI Communications and Marketing, Whoa is Media, Atkiencheck and Proactive Investors (the "Third Party Providers"). The Company believes that all of its Third Party Providers provide valuable services and contribute to the successful marketing of the Company and its products and services. The Company endeavours to work with the Third Party Providers to ensure all disclosures are made in accordance with OTC Markets' policies and guidelines on marketing. The Company intends to continue engaging some or all of the Third Party Providers on an ongoing basis.

The Company's management has been directly involved in engaging and working with the Third Party Providers undertaking Marketing Activities on the Company's behalf. Approved content is sometimes displayed on media properties owned by companies that do not have a direct relationship with the Company but have been selected by or through Third Party Providers. The Company's management is often directly involved in the creation of content used in Marketing Activities. The Company's management makes its best efforts to approve all content about the Company prior to its release, and at no time has the Company approved of any content or made any disclosure that is false or misleading. The Company's management is not aware of any disclosure respecting the Company that has been made by any Third Party Provider that is false or misleading.

The following is a description of issued shares or convertible instruments allowing conversion to equity securities at prices constituting a discount to the current market rate at the time of issuance. All issuances were priced in accordance with applicable Canadian Stock Exchange policies.

On April 20, 2020 the company issued 3,348,147 common shares at a price of CAD $0.09 for debt when the closing market price on the day preceding the issuance was CAD $0.12 representing a 25% discount to market. No warrants were granted.

Found nationwide and exclusively at The Home Depot, Behr paints have been coloring our world for over 70 years! Since the beginning, the Behr brand has realized that color is both a journey and a celebration.

A "Blueprint" for the Future of Color

It is official, Behr unveiled their 2019 Color of the Year: Blueprint S470-5. "Much like the sketches builders rely on to bring an architectural design to life, Blueprint S470-5 lays a foundation for consumers to make their unique vision a reality," said Erika Woelfel, Vice President of Color & Creative Services at Behr.

Influencing decor and design, Blueprint served as the foundational hue for the annual Behr 2019 Color Trends event in New York. As a mid-toned and refined blue, "Blueprint" frees professionals and Do-it-yourselfers to re-imagine design – effectively charting a new and confident course in color with a palette of 15 supporting colors. Erika also declared, "This universally appealing hue provides a steady stream of positivity and is poised to be an instant classic for years to come." Of course, Blueprint S470-5 remains authentic standing on its own yet can anchor bolder palettes by behaving like a neutral. Adding depth and variety when paired with other colors further contributes to Blueprint's versatility.

Resources abound at Behr.com where you can "Ask an expert" about color coordination as well as take advantage of "ColorSmart by Behr®" when choosing and ordering samples or gallons of Blueprint S470-5. Best of all, Behr's color experts provide personalized color consultations and advice on the "Colorfully Behr" blog for those eager to refresh their spaces with the Blueprint hue.

Be sure to use Behr color cards when re-imagining colors for the various spaces around you to best match the beautiful Blueprint hue with the several palettes (Monochromatic, Earth Tones, Pastels, and Jewel Tones) it serves as the foundation for them. The new BEHR PROTM Commercial Color Inspiration Cards, developed by designers and color experts, include warm and cool colors for multi-family, welcoming hues for hospitality, a spectrum of calming colors for healthcare, and dynamic hues that entice alertness, spark productivity and raise the energy levels for the commercial market.

 

The Universal Appeal of Blueprint S470-5

As a starting place for personalizing and transforming spaces to match your taste, the 2019 Color Trends palette offers several solutions.

Blueprint S470-5 can be utilized as a theme color inside and out. Homes and other buildings are planned with blueprints. Now you can choose to paint the entire exterior or just a door and trim with the hero hue named "Blueprint."

For the interior, a family, living, or great room can always be updated with this blue hue that immediately offers the welcoming feeling of hospitality. You may also wish to make a connection between your kitchen and dining room with Blueprint S470-5 as either a solid supporting color or the star of the show as the main wall color.

You can even use Blueprint to transform your bathroom into paradise retreat when relaxation and the desire to unwind is your goal. Blueprint's blue hue surrounds showers and tubs in a soothing manner.

With a spectacular supporting cast of trending colors, you can create any theme you want in any room with Blueprint S470-5. A virtual walk-through of any space will reveal at least one opportunity to refresh a room with the Blueprint hue. When you renew, do it with blue.

 

Strong Past, Fantastic Future

With an unwavering commitment to quality, innovation, and value, Behr is known as one of the largest suppliers of paints, decorative finishes, and surface preparation products in the United States and Canada.

Masco Corporation (MAS) is the parent company for Behr brand paints with Keith Allman as the current President and CEO. Masco is a global leader in the design, manufacture and distribution of branded home improvement and building products. Their portfolio of products enhances the way consumers all over the world experience and enjoy their living spaces.

Behr has been meeting the coating and coloring demands of Do-it-yourselfers, architects, and design professionals since its founding in 1947. After only one short year, Otho Behr's business outgrew the family garage, expanding in 1948 on the principle of commitment to integrity and boldly embodying the entrepreneurial spirit as its cornerstone.

Many decades later, Home Depot followed a very similar path. After being founded in 1978, Home Depot opened another location the very next year and went public by 1981. From the beginning, Home Depot created welcome waves by revolutionizing the DIY market – for the better.

Today, the Home Depot Inc. (HD) is the fifth-largest private employer in the United States with about 406,000 employees at 2,200+ retail locations spanning from Canada, through the United States (including Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands and the territory of Guam), and into Mexico. Craig Menear is the current Chairman, President and CEO.

As the world's largest home improvement specialty retailer with sales topping $100.9 billion, Home Depot proudly and exclusively features Behr products for all your painting projects. With premium paints from Behr, such as "2019 Color of the Year" Blueprint S470-5, Home Depot has solidified its top spot and stellar reputation in the home improvement arena.

 

Define Your Mood with 2019 Color of the Year

From "I can't wait to paint with this color" to "Awesome blue" and even "Blueprint blue looks exactly right. I love this color!" we found almost endless praise for Blueprint S470-5.

People tackling DIY projects, as well as designers and architects in search of a brilliant base color or supporting accent hue, are admiring the positive results Blueprint S470-5 consistently delivers. There is no denying the depth and stability blue hues provide.

After all, blue is the color of our sensational skies and opulent oceans. Blue is often described as being tranquil, peaceful, secure, and full of serenity. Best of all, colors enhance our life, lift our mood, and improve the energy of a space.

Color is critical. Whether you realize it or not, that immediate feeling you get when entering a room has a lot to do with its color and its effect on the mind and body. According to color and home improvement experts, as well as focused research, the primary reason people change the color in a room is to create a new mood or feeling for that space.

Blueprint S470-5 has proven to be beneficial for all types of spaces whether used generously as a foundational hue or sparingly in a complementary/transitioning color role. With its distinguishing universal appeal, any space is the perfect space to splash some Blueprint S470-5 into your life.

 

Make a Colorful Statement

In name and color, the Blueprint hue adds character and enhances the underlying architecture of which it becomes a part of. Refreshing in nature and soothing to the soul, Blueprint S470-5 lays the foundation for a new beginning. "Good. Better. Behr." That Behr tag line gives you the courage to show your true-blue colors and helps create the perfect ambiance in your personal space. Blueprint S470-5 grants you the freedom to show off the colorful blueprint of your style and life.

Meet Joel Patrick, “The Legendary Black Redneck”

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / June 26, 2020 / There are numerous ways a 12-year-old can contribute to society. Raising $15,000 for a charity is definitely uncommon for someone at such a young age, but that was precisely what Joel Patrick did.

There are numerous ways a 12-year-old can contribute to society. Raising $15,000 for a charity is definitely uncommon for someone at such a young age, but that was precisely what Joel Patrick did.

A native of Beavercreek, Ohio, Patrick was exposed and involved with issues in his community early on in his life. He was the third youngest of seven children.

Patrick made his way into the social media scene in the fall of 2017 when Joshua Feuerstein, an American internet personality, shared one of his videos. Since then, Patrick has amassed over 500 million views on different social media platforms and has been a tireless advocate for several issues in America, contributing to the recent discussion on the Black Lives Matter movement.

Black Lives Matter (BLM) is a movement that aims to uphold fundamental human rights and condemn systemic racism and violence towards black people. This international movement originated from the African-American community.

Patrick is quick to point out this movement's dangerous potential to create unnecessary division amongst people. He expressed in Twitter:

"We can seek justice for #GeorgeFloyd and for #AhmaudAubrey without making it about race…don't believe me?…look at the color of the investigators that charged both the Officers and the McMichaels.

We must fight injustice together and not needlessly divide.

#lovethyneighbor"

Additionally, he advocates against the term "racist" being an adjective to describe only white people-slamming black supremacy and emphasizing that anyone who believes a particular race is superior to another can, in fact, be considered racist.

Dubbed as "The Legendary Black Redneck," Patrick exudes courage and commitment towards the betterment of his homeland. He continues to use his platforms to voice out injustices in his community. An up and coming artist himself, Patrick uses his music as an instrument of his beliefs.

Fed up with the constant oppression by the Left towards causes and people he holds dear, Patrick is inspired to use his talents to influence and educate his fellowmen. The young activist hopes to educate anyone, whatever their political stand. He continues to travel across the country to participate as a public speaker in schools and various events. Among the topics he has a passion for are the rights of unborn babies, the suppression of conservatives and Christians in the mainstream media, and the 2nd Amendment.

Liberty Hangout, The White House Brief on The BlazeTV, ABC Nightline, The Epoch Times, Fox News Special Report, The Hodgetwins, Brietbart, and Glen Beck Radio Show are some of the TV shows he has appeared in.

Like many activists, Patrick hopes for America to be great again. He calls out to his fellow Americans to join hands and work towards that. He says on his official website, "I believe that the silent majority will win. I believe that hard work, loving God, and your fellow man and woman is the way to a better, and more fulfilling life. The truth may set you free, but may ruffle some feathers along the way. I won't apologize for my beliefs, but I will try and speak the truth in love."

You may connect with Patrick through Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube. For bookings, you may visit his website. Connect with him via email or call 937 219 1827.

Daylight: Vetrotech Saint-Gobain, Greenlite Glass Provide Key Element to Salesforce Transit Center

SAN FRANCISCO, CA and AUBURN, WA / ACCESSWIRE / June 26, 2020 / When travelers start their journey at the Salesforce Transit Center, the new central hub of public transportation in San Francisco, the first thing they will notice is Contraflam® Liteflam XT-120, developed by Vetrotech Saint-Gobain and Greenlite Glass Systems, Inc.

Award-winning Pelli Clark Pelli Architects designed the Salesforce Transit Center with "soaring light-filled spaces" to give "San Francisco a grand entrance that befits its status as one of the world's great cities." Inside the airy and spacious Grand Hall, sunshine is filtered more than 100 feet below the center's above-street-level park by the Contraflam Liteflam XT-120 walkable fire-rated glass floor and skylight. More than 4,000 sheets of glass make up almost 300 panels, providing daylight for the Grand Hall. A second installation brings natural light down below street level.

 

Vetrotech Saint-Gobain, Greenlite Glass Provide Key Element to Salesforce Transit Center

"When ground broke on this project, this technology didn't exist," says Kevin Norcross, General Manager, Vetrotech Saint-Gobain North America. "It has extremely specific specifications that have never been incorporated into a single project, ever. The fire rating combined with the loading requirements and seismic resistance make it an engineering feat. It's a testament to the innovation of our team."

Pelli Clarke Pelli specified the most demanding requirements for a fire-rated glass floor and skylight to date for this project, and Contraflam Liteflam XT 120 is the only exterior multi-panel system to meet some of the world's most stringent specifications and pass all tests, including two-hour fire rating, seismic resistance, live loading for foot traffic and waterproofing.

Teams from Vetrotech and Greenlite Glass Systems Inc. worked in close collaboration with Roger Wilde Ltd., RDH, Larson Engineering and Pelli Clarke Pelli to on a design-assist for the project.

Experts came together and used the combined decades of experience to produce and rigorously test an innovative, multifunctional solution involving horizontal fire-rated glass, structural glass, and spacers with airgaps to avoid replacing glass due to dirt and condensation issues that would develop with foot traffic and the outdoor environment.

"Architectural design is, in some ways, about imagining the unimaginable and bringing it to life," said Darin Cook, senior associate principal with Pelli Clarke Pelli. "It became clear to us early on that the floor/skylight wasn't going to be an off-the-shelf solution that just anyone could bid, price and build. We're incredibly happy with what Vetrotech and Greenlight came up with-it helps push the limits of opportunity in our industry."

Each panel of the floor was designed to fit a specific area and fit in concert with the unique function of the building-including special seismic protections that allow certain areas to move independently of others in case of earthquakes.

"I knew the project specifications and new challenges were going to be a feat of modern glass technology that only Vetrotech could help us solve," said Ryan Dennett, Greenlight Glass Systems Inc., Canada. "I could not have asked for a better project team to collaborate within the Vetrotech group. We are all enormously proud of our group accomplishments."

Once the floor panels were manufactured, each was specially assembled in a packing crate and shipped in a configuration that allowed construction crews on site to quickly fit each piece to its individual frame in the building with minimal handling.

"Since Salesforce Transit Center opened, the daylight filled Grand Hall has been a feature photographed and shared across social media by San Francisco residents and visitors alike," Norcross said. "We're proud of it and can't wait to overcome the next architectural challenge that comes our way."

 

Salesforce Transit Center Quick Facts

• 1,400 square feet of glass flooring/skylight, about 2.5 football fields in length

• 298 individual glass panels

• More than 4,000 individual pieces of glass

• Nearly twice as heavy as a blue whale at 222 tons of glass

• Only two-hour fire rated horizontal glass floor of its size in the United States

 

Salesforce Transit Center's $110 Million Naming-Rights Investment

Salesforce.com, Inc. (CRM) purchased the naming rights in 2017, paying a reported $110 million over 25 years for this sponsorship deal for the Salesforce Transit Center.

At times, the building process is not as straight forward as it seems. However, with the right expert as your partner, all bumps in the road will be smoothed out and before you know it, you will be holding the new keys to your shining new project.

 

Building with a Purpose

If we build it, will they come?

Reaping the fruits of full potential requires congregations to ponder many questions during the quest for spreading the Good Word as far as possible. Growth enables church bodies to share the Word which leads to another question:

"How do we lead our church through a building campaign? Can we afford it?"

"A conscientious architect won't allow a church to fall into or become chained to a burdensome project," says Siebenlist founder Buddy Siebenlist.

All churches have unique building needs which require a strategic process guided by a dedicated architect. Like the biblical "Romans Road", building projects have a definitive sequence that allow for the best possible outcome while staying true to the personality of the congregation, its needs and mission.

 

Miami Miracle in the Making

Being certified nationally with licensing in 17 states, Siebenlist Architect's spectacular niche in church building projects caught the attention of The Tabernacle of Glory in Miami.

Directing the explosive growth of this young Church is a rising star and an incredibly dynamic leader and speaker, Pastor Gregory Toussaint.

Siebenlist has continually and successfully completed projects of all types and sizes from Albuquerque to Miami, and beyond, with recognition achieved in various publications and magazines. Even with this stellar background in building, The Tabernacle of Glory presented Siebenlist with the challenge of a fast-growing congregation that demanded top notch construction guidance for an almost $17 million budget covering 60,000 square feet.

While other project types are taken on with equal dedication, Siebenlist shines in the church building sector with cutting edge expertise. With a seating capacity of almost 3,000, The Tabernacle of Glory space required a "going big" attitude while respecting the spirit of a close-knit church family to make it all come together.

On the outside, a tall tower will encase a cascading waterfall below a flame accenting the churches "TG" initials. The rounded shell of building flows freely into terraced and partitioned side walls wrapping around toward the rear. A creatively curved and elongated eave hangs high above over the spacious main entrance and terrific transom window. With a phenomenal audio system, holograms, backlit ceiling, and top end video and lighting system, The Tabernacle of Glory ensured that everyone will remain connected during services. A 65-foot LED video wall in the Worship Center backs up the commitment that all who come will surely experience the blessings of the Lord in sound, sight, and Spirit.

 

Going All Out for God's Glory

"‘The silver is mine and the gold is mine,' declares the Lord Almighty" is posted on Tabernacle of Glory's web site. And so it follows that The Tabernacle of Glory, in keeping with the Lord's Great Commission, set out on a bold mission to continue promoting and spreading the gospel of Christ to their community, nation, and the world with a bold building endeavor.

Although zoning variances can be tough to get, Siebenlist assisted Tabernacle of Glory, who was granted an increase in project size over the original permit to accommodate the blessing of expanding project scope. Specializing in church projects, Siebenlist ensures flexibility by developing a master plan for every project as a matter of professionalism.

As a result, Siebenlist declares that "Siebenlist Architects has never had to redesign or rework a project." He also stated that "Architects must respect the budget. It's about reputation and not hurting the church." That mindset has been the central theme Siebenlist lives and works by. With 25 years under his belt exclusively designing churches Siebenlist explains that there is more to it than guarding the integrity of a budget. "Church expansions are not as predictable as other project types" he says. In many cases a typical architect's work can be recognized by its style and materials. Due to the uniqueness of each church body, Siebenlist avoids "canned" and "cookie cutter" project plans thereby respecting the individuality of each congregation.

There is a higher standard that must be met in these circumstances, it is called an accounting via transparency. Siebenlist ensures all church projects he oversees include all stakeholders so that costs are balanced, and the well-informed decisions are made. Siebenlist Architects understand that the body of believers are investing in the Kingdom of God and as such, creatively can bring beauty without a burdensome price tag. After all, beauty is often found in simplicity.

 

Beyond Brick and Mortar

Buildings serve people. People make up congregations. The church body serves a higher purpose that transcends brick and mortar and thus the driving force behind any growth must reflect that core belief. As Siebenlist instructed, properly budgeting in advance guarantees that funds needed to "do" the ministry remain well after the church building is completed. To preserve church unity, Siebenlist reminds us that the church is the body of believers.

"Over 90% of church projects have many people involved. Architects must be conversant, effectively deal with committees, and keep projects moving forward all while remaining conscientious to the congregation's goals."

Siebenlist was honored to serve as the Architect Consultant to the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention, utilizing his experience in church master planning, design, construction, and development to assist the needs of many churches. Siebenlist has overseen $500,000 to $20,000,000 projects and understands that "plate capital" can be a limiting, yet promising, resource of growth at the same time.

As founder of Siebenlist Architects, Siebenlist "sees the big picture" when it comes to the vision of church project criteria while also attending to an array of details that comes with every unique project.

 

Begin Your Project on the Bedrock of Trust

As with every Siebenlist Architects' project, Siebenlist has successfully partnered with owners and numerous other professionals on the path of expansion and new construction dreams. No matter what path you choose, the first step is establishing solid relationships – with trust as the foundational bedrock.

Great outcomes require great teams. Before embarking on a building project of your own, be sure your team consists of true experts who are up front and transparent in their dealings.

Here are a few fundamental questions Siebenlist has guided many clients with.

 

Good Questions to Ask When Planning Your Project

Would more space or renovations best fit your needs? How much growth is realistic? Will your current location suffice or is new land in the cards to accommodate development?

For your faith-based project and more, reach out to Siebenlist Architects to benefit from their many decades worth of church construction expertise, that spans master planning, design, development, acoustics, and facilities management.

Waldorf Astoria New York: Luxurious 5-Star NYC Hotel Icon

NEW YORK, NY and LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 26, 2020 / Even right in the middle of a complex multi-year renovation project, Cumming Corporation's New York based project management team knows one thing: when it comes to the color of the new bricks, they must remain that iconic "Waldorf Gray," just like the originals.
 

New York's Iconic Waldorf Astoria: Second Phase of Major Renovations Begins

Cumming was brought onboard to oversee the Waldorf Astoria New York's complete revitalization, whereby the historic New York City landmark is being thoughtfully restored during a multi-phased development.

Anbang Insurance Group, the Waldorf's owner, selected Cumming to help ensure that the hotel's one-of-a-kind glamour will be reintroduced to a modern generation of guests and residents from around the world. With the initial pre-construction and demolition finally completed, AECOM Tishman, is beginning the extensive interior renovations and reconstruction.

The Waldorf Astoria New York will feature approximately 350 luxurious hotel rooms and suites, and approximately 350 branded and hotel-serviced condominium residences. The interiors of the 1.65 million square foot historic hotel require tremendous attention to detail and quality.

Work includes an authentic restoration of the paneled main lobby with its signature clock, the dramatic mosaic-tiled Park Avenue Lobby, the opulent multi-level Grand Ballroom, and many other historic landmark spaces and features.

The residences at the Waldorf will be among the world's greatest and most desirable private residential destinations, instantly recognizable and providing a modern level of service and glamour not found anywhere else.

As for the exterior, the renovation will replace the more than 5,300 existing windows with those featuring thinner frames to replicate the original design.

The renovations will also create separate residential and hotel porte cocheres, introduce parking below grade, and faithfully clean and restore the landmark façade with authentic materials and treatments.

Ensuring the historic building remains true to its past while embracing its future, the architectural team at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) has reviewed decades of rich architectural archives in preparation for the major renovation and will continue to collaborate with the project teams through completion in 2021.

LOPE DEADLINE ALERT: The Law Firm of Barbuto & Johansson, P.A. Reminds Investors of the LOPE Class Action Deadline and Encourages Shareholders with Losses Exceeding $100,000 To Contact The Firm

WELLINGTON, FL / ACCESSWIRE / June 26, 2020 / Barbuto & Johansson, P.A. ("BARJO") and Of Counsel, Neil Rothstein, Esq. (with over 30 years of Securities Class Action experience, including cases against ENRON and HALLIBURTON) remind shareholders of the upcoming July 13, 2020 deadline to petition the court to serve as a lead plaintiff in the GRAND CANYON EDUCATION, INC. (NASDAQ:LOPE) (the "Company") securities class action lawsuit. Investors who purchased shares of the Company between January 5, 2018 and January 27, 2020, inclusive (the "Class Period"), are encouraged to contact the Firm to learn more about their rights as class members and petitioning the court for lead appointment.

The Class Action, The City of Hialeah Employees' Retirement System v. Grand Canyon Education, Inc., et al., Case No.: 1:20-cv-00639, was filed in the US District Court for the District of Delaware on behalf of shareholders seeking damages for alleged violations of federal securities laws. Specifically, the lawsuit involves the Company's July 2018 spin-off of its education assets through a sale to purported non-profit entity, Grand Canyon University ("GCU"), whereby GCU would operate as a separate, non-profit entity. It is alleged, however, that in reality, GCU functioned as an off-balance-sheet entity to which the Company was able to funnel expenses and costs in exchange for a disproportionate amount of revenue, thereby inflating the Company's financial results.

If you purchased shares of GRAND CANYON EDUCATION, INC. during the Class Period and would like to discuss this case, you may, without obligation or cost, contact attorney Anthony Barbuto, at (888) 715-2520 or via email at anthony@barjolaw.com; and/or attorney Neil Rothstein via email at neil@barjolaw.com. Shareholders can also visit the Firm's website at: https://barjolaw.com/case/lope to fill out the Class Action Inquiry Form.

Deisy Suarez-Giles and DESUAR Spa: a Beauty Interest Transformed into a “Spa Connoisseur” Career

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / June 25, 2020 / Breaking the glass ceiling for women continues to be a gender battle for aspiring femme bosses in different fields. It takes not just exceptional knowledge and expertise, but also guts and perseverance to make a name in one's chosen path. Success has been redefined by "spa connoisseur" Deisy Suarez-Giles, or simply Deisy, as she has transformed her passion for cosmetics to a dedicated life in health and wellness. Deisy now shares with her clients in a luxurious LA day spa, DESUAR Spa.

She first started as an entrepreneur 16 years ago when she opened her own cosmetics line, Desuar Cosmetics. Back then, she was a makeup artist based in New York City. Her career in the beauty and wellness industry kept growing until she eventually founded DESUAR Spa. As its Chief Operator, Deisy is well trained as a licensed esthetician and a certified massage therapist. She continues to trailblaze in the industry of esthetics, skincare, spa & wellness. Her educational background includes a Certification in Spa and Hospitality Management from the University of California Irvine Continuing Education Division.

Deisy Suarez-Giles is not only a businesswoman but also a speaker, philanthropist, wife, and mother of two boys under two. She has made a name as the "spa connoisseur," after having visited over 150 spas globally. Her expertise in the beauty and wellness industry is taken from her 15 years of collective experience. She continues to innovate and be on top of the game with her PR and Marketing background.

DESUAR is not your ordinary private day spa. It is strategically located at the heart of downtown LA. They offer healing as well as high-end relaxing treatments fit for royalty, be it massage, waxing, facials, body scrubs, saunas, or even CBD treatments. Their team is composed of passionate and committed staff dedicated to being of service in improving clients' wellbeing and lifestyle. Every individual's needs are surely catered with their tailored-fit services.

Deisy and her team in DESUAR believe in treatments that harmonize the mind and body. A balanced lifestyle incorporated into the human experience is their fundamental philosophy, as written in their slogan, "Where communicating with your body means listening with our hands." This stability between the two creates a state of being beneficial not only to a person's mental and physical health but also to one's beauty and self-esteem.

Despite being a successful businesswoman with her spa, Deisy is not immune to the challenges the world is facing. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced her to close her business and meet the uncertainty that lies ahead. Losing a job is a threat that makes anyone anxious. Deisy keeps her thoughts away from worries by making her idle time productive. Her multi-tasker personality drives her to keep going in life and her career. She has so far succeeded in this endeavor by authoring her book, one of her long-desired projects. Her desired audience is book readers enthusiastic about topics on relationships, marriage, dating, family, skincare, and of course, beauty, spa, and wellness.

With community quarantines ordering people to stay at home, Deisy focused on her writing for almost a month long. Her efforts are unwasted as she has wrapped up and is about to launch on June 15th, her first book entitled "Marriage Material." It is about the challenges and travels of a woman in search of love to marry her destined partner. It's a true story that opposites attract and the truth that what we may be looking for may just be right in front of us.

Explore their unique and luxurious treatments at DESUAR Spa by visiting its website. Learn more about Deisy Suarez-Giles and her thoughts on beauty and wellness through her blog or please feel free to give her a call on 213-265-7908 or send her an email at deisy@desuar.com.
