CV Sciences, Inc. Responds to Class Action Lawsuit

LAS VEGAS, Aug. 28, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CV Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB:CVSI) (the “Company”, “CV Sciences”, “our”, “us” or “we”) has been informed of a class action lawsuit filed against the Company that alleges violations of federal securities laws.  The Company disputes the allegations in the complaint and will vigorously defend this lawsuit.“We believe that any claims alleging violations of securities laws by the Company are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend our position,” stated Joseph Dowling, Chief Executive Officer of CV Sciences.

The lawsuit piggy-backs on allegations made in a public “report” by Citron Research, a firm that sources indicate is run by an activist short seller.  Citron issued its report on Monday, August 20^th, after the Company’s stock had risen more than 25% in the day. 

Both the Citron report and the newly filed lawsuit allege, in pertinent part, that the Company violated securities laws by failing to disclose that it had received notice from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) that its pending patent application, U.S. Patent Application No. 15/426,617 (the ‘617 Application), had been “finally rejected” by the USPTO.  The complaint draws the conclusion that this notice from the USPTO terminated the Company’s patent application, and that the Company’s efforts to obtain patent protection for the inventions disclosed in the ‘617 Application have therefore failed.

“The conclusions in the complaint and in the ‘report’ by Citron Research are outright false, and demonstrate either an ignorance, a disregard, or both, of the basics of patent prosecution,” stated Mr. Dowling.  “A ‘final rejection’ in the context of patent prosecution is anything but final.  It by no means indicates that the applicant has failed in its efforts to obtain an issued patent.” We will continue to prosecute the ‘617 Application and plan to file and prosecute several more applications related to the inventions described in the ‘617 Application.” 

Mr. Dowling continued, “While the end result is not assured, both the Company and our patent counsel at Banner & Witcoff continue to have comfort that we will obtain an issued patent pursuant to the ‘617 Application.”

--------------------Billionaires aren't all born with silver spoons in their mouths.

In fact, many came from nothing at all.

The "rags-to-riches" trope may be a cliché, but it's one that's definitely grounded in reality for some famous billionaires.

Through extraordinary grit and perseverance, individuals across the globe have beat the odds and achieved their own rags-to-riches stories.

Here are 21 people who started off life poor and went on to become billionaires:

*Net worth: *$1.2 billion

At the beginning of his career, Laliberté had fire in his belly — literally. The Canadian-born circus busker played the accordion, walked on stilts, and ate fire.

Later on, Business Insider previously reported, he took a chance and flew a troupe from Quebec to Los Angeles without purchasing a return fair. The circus troup traveled to Las Vegas and became Cirque du Soleil.

Laliberté is now the CEO of Cirque de Soleil.-Alan Gerry kickstarted a TV network that went on to become Cablevision.-

*Net worth: *$1.4 billion

The son of Russian immigrants, Alan Gerry dropped out of high school in order to pursue a career in the Marines.

Bloomberg reported that, after his stint in the military, Gerry went on to found "a tiny television repair business after training via the G.I. Bill."

In 1956, Gerry made the decision to take the $1,500 he earned from his small business, and found a cable company. The company went on to become known as Cablevision, which sold to Time Warner for an estimated $2.7 billion in 1996, according to Forbes.-Kenny Troutt, the founder of Excel Communications, paid his way through college by selling life insurance.-

*Net worth: *$1.4 billion

Troutt grew up with a bartender dad and paid for his own tuition at Southern Illinois University by selling life insurance. He made most of his money from phone company Excel Communications, which he founded in 1988 and took public in 1996. Two years later, Troutt merged his company with Teleglobe in a $3.5 billion deal.

He's now retired and invests heavily in racehorses.

WALTHAM, Mass., Aug. 28, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NeuroMetrix, Inc. (Nasdaq:NURO), today reported that it will present three scientific posters at the upcoming PAINWeek 2018 National Pain Conference to be held in Las Vegas, NV, September 4-8. The PAINWeek 2018 Abstract Book may be accessed here. The three NeuroMetrix abstracts are:

*Pilot Study of Fixed-Site High-Frequency Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation **in Fibromyalgia.*  Quell^® efficacy was evaluated in a 30-day open-label study of 12 subjects with confirmed fibromyalgia.  A majority of subjects demonstrated clinically meaningful improvement in Fibromyalgia impact and pain level.  This study was conducted in collaboration with Mauro Zappaterra, M.D., Ph.D., of Synovation Medical Group.   Abstract #81

*Real-Word Effectiveness of Fixed-Site High-Frequency Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation in Chronic Low Back Pain.*  Quell effectiveness was evaluated in a 10-week real-world retrospective study using propensity score matching.  843 Quell users with chronic low back pain (CLBP) were evaluated using the Quell Health Cloud.  Regular Quell use was found effective in improving pain outcomes in CLBP.  Abstract #107

*Effectiveness of Fixed-Site High-Frequency Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation among Individuals with Chronic Pain and Abnormal Sleep.  *In this real-world retrospective study of 2034 Quell users from the Quell Health Cloud, one-quarter had substantially impaired sleep based on the device’s objective sleep tracking.  In addition, Quell effectiveness, over 10-weeks, was found to be generally independent of baseline sleep characteristics.  Abstract #122

"We are pleased to present important and interesting clinical and scientific data at this year’s PAINWeek conference.  These poster presentations reflect our ongoing commitment to building the clinical and scientific foundation for the use of non-invasive neurostimulation, and Quell specifically, to treat chronic pain," said Shai N. Gozani, M.D., Ph.D., President and CEO of NeuroMetrix. "Two of the studies inform use of Quell in Fibromyalgia and Chronic Low Back Pain, which according to our Quell Health Cloud data are among the most common applications for Quell.  The third poster demonstrates that Quell effectiveness is not diminished in users with poor sleep at onset of therapy.  This is an important finding given the reciprocal interactions between poor sleep and chronic pain.  The study also highlighted the importance of sleep monitoring and treatment personalization."

*About Quell*

Quell is an advanced, wearable technology for treating chronic pain. It can be worn during the day while active and at night while sleeping. Quell is drug-free and has been cleared by the FDA for treatment of chronic pain without a prescription. Quell has been shown in multiple clinical studies to relieve chronic pain and, in a published study, 4 out of 5 users reported improvement in chronic pain.  Quell users can personalize and manage therapy discreetly via the Quell app.  Quell also offers health tracking relevant to chronic pain sufferers including pain, sleep, activity, and gait. Quell users can synchronize their data with the Quell Health Cloud, which provides customized feedback and powers one of the world’s largest chronic pain databases. Quell is available online and through select retailers. Visit QuellRelief.com for more information.

*About NeuroMetrix*

NeuroMetrix is an innovation driven healthcare company combining neurostimulation and digital medicine to address chronic health conditions including chronic pain, sleep disorders, and diabetes. The company's lead product is Quell, an over-the-counter wearable therapeutic device for chronic pain.

365 Cannabis chosen as California's #1 Cannabis ERP Software Choice for Licensed Cultivators

365 Cannabis has been chosen as California's #1 Cannabis ERP Software solution for its ability to track Biological Assets, Work-in-Progress and integration with the CCTT-METRC system.

LAS VEGAS (PRWEB) August 29, 2018

365 Cannabis has been chosen as the #1 Cannabis ERP Software solution in California for its ability to track Biological Assets, Work-in-Progress, and comply with California's Cannabis Track-and-Trace (CCTT) system. 365 Cannabis is honored to be selected as a top Cannabis ERP Software solution by MG Magazine.

The California Cannabis Track-and-Trace (CCTT) system is the program used statewide to record the inventory and movement of cannabis and cannabis products through the commercial cannabis supply chain — from cultivation to sale.

All state-issued annual cannabis licenses are required to use the CCTT-METRC system to maintain information about their cannabis and cannabis-product inventories and activities, and 365 Cannabis integrates completely with the METRC system.

365 Cannabis is the ultimate seed-to-sale experience, powered by Microsoft Dynamics. 365 Cannabis not only integrates seamlessly with METRC, but also Microsoft Office 365, so email, calendar and files merge seamlessly with data, reports and business processes to improve workflow and efficiency. The biggest feature and greatest benefit of 365 Cannabis is the Biological Asset Tracking, Work-in-Progress and Cost per Gram Tracking for cultivation and production.

Agribusiness companies required to comply with Accounting Standards currently value agricultural assets at their fair value less cost to sell. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) is proposing to change this standard in regards to plants that bear produce (such as grape vines, fruit trees, rubber tree plantations and cannabis) so that produce-bearing plants are valued at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment (as is the case for property, plant and equipment) with the output from these assets to be classified as inventory (and the accounting treatment being the lower of cost or net realizable value).

This is where 365 Cannabis ERP software comes in for it’s ability to track Biological Assets, Work-in-Progress and Cost per Gram. 365 Cannabis is a comprehensive vertically integrated cannabis solution built on Microsoft Dynamics platform (http://d365cannabis.com).

In MG Magazine’s August 2018 feature story “A Closer Look at Tech-Savvy Cannabis” the magazine takes a look at leading companies offering innovative products that are taking cannabis into the future.

According to MG Magazine, “Cannabis is bringing out the techie in everyone – and for good reason. In the hottest growth industry in the nation, technological superiority could spell the difference between success and failure, especially with scaled cultivation.”

365 Cannabis is the #1 cannabis ERP software solution in the United States and Canada that bears watching for its robust agribusiness tracking and accounting methodologies.

California Licensed Cultivators may contact 888-609-6766 or info(at)365vertical.com to start using 365 Cannabis ERP software at their organization. Reported by PRWeb 3 hours ago.

New Features in Brazen’s Chat-based Recruiting Software Improve Connection Between Candidates and Recruiters

New Live Chat, Text Messaging and A.I.-powered Chatbot Features Transform the Brazen Platform into a Powerful “Conversational Recruiting” Suite

ARLINGTON, Va., Aug. 28, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brazen Technologies, Inc., a global leader in chat-based recruiting solutions, today unveiled new features that leverage its proprietary chat technology to engage candidates “conversationally” in new ways. Based on Brazen’s proven “Conversational Recruiting” model, the new live chat, text messaging and A.I.-powered chatbot features augment the company’s market leading chat event and scheduled chat modules. Job application abandonment rates are at an all-time high due to lengthy applications with a poor mobile experience or multiple registration requirements due to disparate systems. Fully integrated into an employer’s job requisitions and career site pages, Brazen’s new chat and messaging suite brings human interaction back into what is often an impersonal experience. This provides candidates alternatives to ‘Apply Now.’ Before committing their time to completing an application, candidates can now choose to chat with a recruiter or hiring manager (1) immediately, (2) at a scheduled date and time, or (3) during an online chat event.  “Candidates want to make sure a job and an employer are a good fit before they apply,” said Becki Feldmann, System Leader – Employee and Candidate Experience at SSM Health. “We need to give them options to connect in the way they feel most comfortable. Brazen allows us to do that, while keeping our recruiters’ bandwidth and availability in mind.”

“As is the case for many organizations, traffic to our career site was high but conversions were low,” says Amy Gabbard, Talent Acquisition Partner at Appalachian Regional Healthcare System. “We knew we needed a different way to engage with qualified candidates which is why we chose to use Brazen's new chat features. We started seeing results immediately.”

Brazen pioneered the use of text-based chat for recruiting in 2013, allowing employers to engage candidates through chat-based events (“Chat Events”).
