Introducing Fine Arts Skin and Laser’s Newest Arrival: EMsculpt®


This fall, patients gained more options for body contouring at Fine Arts Skin & Laser Facial Plastic Surgery in Ohio. EMsculpt® joined the extensive roster of available non-surgical body services, including WarmSculpting™ with SculpSure® laser technology and EndyMed™ radiofrequency technology. EMsculpt® is the first fat reduction device of its kind that also builds muscle tissue during a treatment session. It is cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for enhancing contours and definition on the abdomen, buttocks, arms, and legs.

The high-intensity machine, which recently debuted in the plastic surgery world, is designed for both fat reduction and muscle conditioning. It works by applying electromagnetic energy (hence the first two letters in its name, “EM”) to stimulate intense muscle contractions in localized areas. These powerful “super maximal contractions” are too strong for the body to achieve with traditional workouts alone. Within just one 30-minute session, EMsculpt® stimulates 20,000 contractions (the equivalent of 20,000 repetitions of crunches or squats). The body grows muscle mass in response to this treatment, as well as destroys fat cells in the same area. The treatment requires no downtime afterward and results in an average 23 percent increase in muscle and 27 percent decrease in fat.

Sometimes, you can do all the right things, but attaining your dream body may still be a challenge due to age, genetics, your natural body type, or hormones. Eating clean and exercising regularly are good habits to maintain for your health and to keep overall weight down, but what about those small, tricky fat bulges that never seem to slim down?

Note that EMsculpt® is not a weight loss procedure, but works best for women and men who are already close to their ideal size, active, and healthy, but simply want to add extra refinements.

To learn more about the benefits of EMsculpt®, reach out to Ohio’s Fine Arts Skin & Laser Facial Plastic Surgery, serving Dover and surrounding locales. Call 330-364-5656 or fill out a contact form online.

Granular Adds New Labor and Equipment Functionality to Improve Productivity and Deliver Accurate Field-Level Financials


Farmers need a clear view of their field ROI, and the new labor and equipment features improve that level of detail.

Granular, the leading farm management software platform, announced new functionality designed to help farmers easily assess the impact of labor and equipment on their profitability across the operation, down to the field level. This new functionality builds on existing features, enabling farmers to more efficiently manage team productivity and coordination across tasks. Equipment cost analysis can be customized to evaluate such items as fuel expenses, machine wear-and-tear, and payment data.

On average, labor and equipment expenses account for up to 25 percent of a farm’s budget. Yet farmers often struggle in-season to quickly pinpoint true costs and productivity differences for their work crew and equipment fleet. Granular’s new features can collect detailed labor and equipment costs based on actual work completed in the field.

Granular has talked with growers who understand the importance of analyzing their utilization of labor and equipment, in order to support hiring decisions, equipment purchases, and efficient time management. Granular’s new functionality will help farmers analyze these costs, while supporting growth during challenging economic times, and ultimately boosting their bottom line.

“I spend a lot less time on the phone now,” said Steve Frank, partner at Frank Ag in Johnstown, Colorado. “Granular Business helps our operation by tracking everything, including fuel costs, tractors, and labor costs. Now we have a lot more information on where we’re adding to our farm and what our costs are. It saves us a lot of time and money.”

“Farmers need a clear view of their field ROI, and the new labor and equipment features improve that level of detail,” said Andrew Meyers, Vice President of Product at Granular. “As farmers manage rent negotiations, implement crop plans, and consider expansion, they must have an accurate view of their financials to make the best decisions for their operation. This added functionality provides a clear view of field-level profitability.”

First to market: A coveted spot one aspires to reach in the crowded life sciences arena. There are multiple SOPs in place to improve efficiency and ease of use, in an effort to minimize wasted time and win that sought-after place.

But one is far more likely to be first to market when SOPs and digital solutions are integrated, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. After all, if one doesn’t know there’s a problem, one can’t address it.

Patricia Santos-Serrao, RAC — Director, Product Strategy at MasterControl — explains that, while individual systems are each valuable alone, when targeted tools are integrated, they offer benefits that are exponentially powerful. Especially since 80% of quality issues are due to inefficient corrective action from previously identified issues.

Connected technology — the integration of electronic document management, training management, risk mitigation, risk management, deviation and CAPA management, and audit management systems — will trigger the kinds of checks and balances across systems that increase compliance and reduce risk.

Attend this session to:

  • Save time and money by streamlining processes, automating and consolidating tasks
  • Build a robust risk management protocol that automates vital actions in other systems
  • Optimize document controls to automatically trigger important updates that might otherwise take weeks to notice
  • Implement a learning management system that goes beyond “read and understood” to ensure compliance
  • Ensure audit tools are flexible and powerful enough to capture compliance issues meaningfully, both internally and externally
  • Create an integrated document control and training management strategy to take advantage of automation features of technology
  • Incorporate business processes into technology to automate tasks and reduce risk of critical tasks being missed


Win that coveted first-to-market spot. Integrate digital solutions, streamline operations, improve quality and mitigate risk. First to market is just around the corner.

Cybereason Launches Free Emotet-Locker Tool to Help Global Organizations and Local and State Governments Combat Emotet Malware Attacks


Cybereason, creators of the leading Cyber Defense Platform, today announced that its Nocturnus researchers have made available a Free Emotet-Locker Tool to help organizations defend against a surge in Emotet malware attacks. The Emotet-Locker tool can be downloaded here:Cybr.ly/emotet. Emotet-Locker will prevent certain variants of Emotet on Windows machines.

According to DHS’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), Emotet infections can cost local and state governments up to $1 million per incident in remediation costs. Cyberscoop reported on Monday that Berlin’s highest court was recently victimized by an Emotet attack with lasting damage and a recommendation that the court rebuild its entire network.

Emotet Malware Explanation

Emotet was first identified as early as 2014 as a trojan used to steal banking credentials. Since then, its capabilities have evolved significantly into a type of modular malware. Because of its modular nature and the practicality of Emotet’s distribution features, it is often used by attackers to gain a foothold in a target environment.

Emotet’s main infection vector is through phishing attacks, which use email with malicious links, attached PDFs, or Macro-embedded Microsoft Word files to spread. Once deployed, Emotet can launch different malware payloads based on the target machine and its goal. In recent years, it has become one of the most commonly employed commodity malware.

Cybereason’s Nocturnus researchers recently released the ‘Triple Threat’ research report with details of a nefarious campaign combining Emotet, TrickBot, and Ryuk that poses significant risk for victims. It shows how attackers are becoming more daring and opting to combine multiple types of malware to achieve maximum damage.

This campaign again originates from a phishing attack. The use of phishing to perpetrate a widespread attack continues to be a leading issue. This will continue to be an effective attack vector until we are able to prevent human manipulation in phishing attacks.

About Cybereason

Cybereason, creators of the leading Cyber Defense Platform, gives the advantage back to the defender through a completely new approach to cybersecurity. Cybereason offers endpoint prevention, detection and response and active monitoring. The solution delivers multi-layered endpoint prevention by leveraging signature and signatureless techniques to prevent known and unknown threats in conjunction with behavioral and deception techniques to prevent ransomware and fileless attacks. Cybereason is privately held and is headquartered in Boston, with offices in London, Sydney, Tel Aviv, Tokyo, Asia-Pacific and continental Europe.

Mark Hyman, MD to deliver keynote address at The Integrative Healthcare Symposium


Mark Hyman, MD will be the keynote speaker at the forthcoming Integrative Healthcare Symposium, taking place Feb. 20-22, in New York City.

Dr. Hyman, who crafted and helped introduce the Take Back Your Health Act of 2009 to the United States Senate, has devoted his life to helping others discover optimal health and address the root causes of chronic disease through the power of Functional Medicine. An eleven-time #1 New York Times best-selling author, he is a regular medical contributor to several television shows and networks, including CBS This Morning, Today, Good Morning America, The View, CNN, and is an advisor and guest co-host of The Dr. Oz Show. Dr. Hyman achievements in the healthcare and wellness community include having presented at the Clinton Foundation’s Health Matters, Achieving Wellness in Every Generation conference and the Clinton Global Initiative.

He has consulted with the surgeon general on diabetes prevention and participated in the 2009 White House Forum on Prevention and Wellness. Senator Tom Harkin of Iowa nominated Dr. Hyman for the President’s Advisory Group on Prevention, Health Promotion, and Integrative and Public Health.

In his Integrative Healthcare Symposium keynote talk, scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 20, 8:45 a.m. at the New York Hilton Midtown, Dr. Hyman will lead practitioners in identifying the role of the food system in the causes of chronic disease, discuss the economic impact of chronic disease and the food system; and list the ways the food system influences policy, science, health, social justice and environment and climate change.

Several others will explore the interdisciplinary approach of breaking down practice group silos and how they see the human body holistically to enable optimal patient outcomes and how practitioners should move past these perceptual limits and specialties to see patients as individuals, and not cases.

Will Cole, DC, IFMCP and Alessio Fasano, MD will both address inflammation in their respective conference sessions. Dr. Cole — named one of the top fifty functional-medicine and integrative doctors in the nation and a health expert for mindbodygreen and goop – will explore the entire inflammation spectrum and the impact it has on anxiety, depression, fatigue, digestive problems, hormone imbalances, diabetes, heart disease, autoimmune conditions and more.

Chan School of Public Health, and Director of the Mucosal Immunology and Biology Research Center at MassGeneral Hospital for Children (MGHfC) – will discuss why a balanced microbiome is essential for good human health and will explain what key factors are necessary and sufficient for the development of chronic inflammatory diseases.

These speakers will join more than 40 others who will share the latest intelligence on subjects ranging from environmental toxicity to brain health, and more, with an audience of over 1,600 multi-disciplinary practitioners. The full conference schedule can be viewed at ihsymposium.com/conference-program.

In addition to the main educational program, attendees can also choose to participate in non-CME activities like one of the pre-conference workshops, drop in to daily yoga and movement classes, browse the product showcase, meet with more than 200 companies representing the industry over the three-floored exhibit hall, and connect with like-minded peers at the speakers’ reception & book signing, daily lunch & learn presentations, morning and evening symposia, or the Wellness & Community Corner.

Exhibit Hall passes are free with the purchase of a Conference Pass and can also be purchased separately. The pre-conferences are ticketed separately but can be bundled with a full conference pass for a discounted rate. Full details are available at ihsymposium.com/register.

Qualified members of the press employed by accredited consumer or trade news organizations are invited to attend, and must pre-register for a press pass at ihsymposium.com/press.
