Partnership Between Ursa Major and JobsOhio Establishes Additive Manufacturing and Materials Development Hub in Youngstown 

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, July 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Ursa Major, America’s leading privately funded company focusing solely on rocket propulsion, is establishing a new research-and-development center in Youngstown, Ohio, to advance additive manufacturing and materials development technology for liquid rocket engines and solid rocket motors. The center represents a capital investment of $14.5 million, which includes $4 million in assistance in the form of a JobsOhio R&D Grant. Ursa Major worked closely with JobsOhio Network partner Team NEO to secure funding for the expansion, which will be in the new Lake to River region.

The R&D center marks an expansion in Ohio, where Ursa Major already 3D prints hardware for propulsion systems. In the coming years, the company will expand its workforce from three to eighteen people.

Liquid rocket engines and solid rocket motors power platforms that are essential for America’s security, including high-performance munitions, hypersonic weapons, in-space propulsion systems, and space launch. Ursa Major is expanding its R&D efforts to meet a rapidly growing portfolio of U.S. Department of Defense development contracts.      

“The new R&D center in Youngstown takes advantage of Ohio’s manufacturing heritage and uniquely skilled workforce to advance manufacturing in service to our national security,” said Ursa Major CEO Joe Laurienti. “Raw material access, supply chain, and a vibrant additive manufacturing ecosystem as a result of the America Makes program make Youngstown an ideal home for this center.”

“Ursa Major’s R&D center plans in the Mahoning Valley represent Ohio’s strong aerospace and manufacturing legacy and how this state is driving the future of how things are made in America and worldwide,” said JobsOhio President and CEO J.P. Nauseef. “Innovation from Mahoning County is rapidly advancing additive manufacturing technology, and Ursa Major’s investment is an example of how that attracts extraordinary companies.”

The new center will be located in Boardman and will accelerate new material development and qualification processes for aerospace applications of additive manufacturing. This includes developing metallic alloys for solid rocket motors and development of copper and nickel alloys for liquid rocket engines. The center will be home to multiple Laser Powder Bed Fusion 3D Printers, which are state-of-the-art machines that enable unparalleled speed for rapid prototyping and material development.

Life After Hate Launches HateEraser–A Revolutionary Spray Paint Remover to Eliminate Hate-Based Graffiti

HateEraser removes hate-based graffiti in communities and gives first-time offenders a second chance through judge-mandated service

NEW YORK, Nov. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, on the International Day for Tolerance and in response to the alarming 600% rise in hate-based graffiti, the Chicago-based nonprofit Life After Hate has launched HateEraser—the first aerosol-gel based formula designed to quickly eradicate hate speech from most surfaces.

Life After Hate is partnering with police stations across the country to distribute HateEraser as part of a new program in which first-time offenders are required to use it during court-mandated community service. This initiative is based on the belief that educating offenders on the damage their actions cause can help prevent them from continuing a life of hate.

“We know that hate-based speech and hate-based graffiti are the first steps to hate-based violence,” remarked Life After Hate Director Pat Riccards. “HateEraser works to change the futures of people motivated by hate and extremist ideologies through education, community service, and helping people alter their path away from a life of continued radical hate.”

The HateEraser formula contains acetone, xylene, and multiple varieties of alcohol and hydrocarbons. “This unique combination of active ingredients,” according to Savannah Technical College Chemistry Professor Ujjvala Bagal, “removes hateful markings as quickly as they were made.”

Street artists do not want to be associated with hate-based graffiti. That’s why they joined in on the HateEraser effort. The cans were designed by street artists from across the country to help inspire change in their communities, with every design telling a different story of acceptance, anti-hate, and empathy. “The hope is that through the HateEraser program, education, action, and strengthening hate crime laws, we can help foster a safe and more accepting community,” said Dina Peck, Chief Creative Officer of The Purpose Group.

“Hate has no place in our art,” Jax, one of the artists on the project, said. “And I’m proud to be a part of something that makes real change in my community.”

Today’s news is the latest glimpse into how Life After Hate has been embracing several innovative solutions for helping individuals disengage from hateful violence and make our communities safer. Last May, the organization unveiled Daily Former Discord, a multi-level public engagement tool. It’s designed to help those currently engaged in violent extremism, those looking to exit such hate groups, and those who have successfully left lives of hate behind reengage in society.

DermRays Black Friday Event Offers Year’s Biggest Savings and Industry Recognition

PLEASANTON, Calif., Nov. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — This Black Friday, DermRays is excited to announce its most significant sale of the year, offering $130 off sitewide from November 16-30th, 2024. With this limited-time discount, customers can experience the brand’s advanced home laser hair removal technology at unbeatable prices. Don’t miss out on this exclusive opportunity to invest in smoother, hair-free skin for less.

In recognition of our commitment to quality and innovation, DermRays V6S model was recently ranked second among the top ten at-home laser hair removal devices globally by Harper’s Bazaar. In their article, “The 10 Best At-Home Laser Hair Removal Devices, According to the Pros“, DermRays stood out as a trusted leader, celebrated for delivering professional-grade results in a convenient, at-home device. For more details, you can explore the full article from Harper’s Bazaar.

It’s essential to clarify the long-term goals of laser hair removal. Technically, it is a process of “laser hair reduction” rather than complete “removal,” as some hair regrowth is normal over time. Even with consistent treatments, new hair from dormant follicles may appear after one to three years. At-home laser devices offer a manageable, convenient skincare routine, giving lasting, visible results in a way that’s easier, faster, and more affordable than traditional methods like waxing or shaving. DermRays aims to set realistic expectations and empower customers with effective, salon-quality solutions at home.

Join us this Black Friday to experience DermRays’ transformative technology at our lowest prices ever, and enjoy smoother, more radiant skin.
