Stock market today: Stocks waver in thin trading after US markets reopen following a holiday pauseCARLSBAD, Calif. , Dec. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ourself, a leader in the next generation of skincare, today announced that clinical data evaluating Ourself's patented delivery technology, Tiered-Release VesiclesTM (TRVs), was published in Dermatologic Surgery , the official journal of the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery. The publication highlights that TRVs have the potential to revolutionize skincare by enabling the delivery of large, bioactive molecules directly into the epidermis and dermis. The Ourself delivery method promises to reshape the way we care for our skin and opens new possibilities for enhancing cosmetic outcomes topically. "Publication of this data reinforces that Ourself is setting a new standard in topical delivery," said Jim Hartman , Ourself's Chief Executive Officer. "We are excited to lead these advancements and look forward to the growth and innovation this breakthrough will inspire for our brand and the industry as a whole." "Tiered-Release Vesicles represent a revolutionary advancement in dermal delivery technology, addressing a stagnation in the industry that has persisted for over four decades," said Ashish C. Bhatia , MD, FAAD, author and board-certified dermatologist and Mohs surgeon at Oak Dermatology. For decades, the skin's outermost layer, the stratum corneum, has long been a barrier that limits the effectiveness of skincare products, blocking essential ingredients from reaching deeper layers. Traditional delivery systems like liposomes have failed to penetrate deeply enough to achieve substantial results—TRVs change this paradigm. "It's not just about the ingredients but also how the ingredients get to where they need to go. Ourself is revolutionary and a game changer in our industry because we've had the same delivery systems for 40 years. Now we have something better," said Amy B. Lewis , MD, board-certified dermatologist at Lewis Dermatology and Associates. "The Tiered-Release Vesicle delivery system is a major step forward for skincare. These developments redefine what is now achievable in topical delivery, unlocking limitless potential for the future of skincare," said Amir Moradi , MD, MBA lead author and double board-certified facial plastic and otolaryngology-head and neck surgeon at Moradi MD. ABOUT OURSELF Leveraging decades of biotech and skincare expertise, Ourself developed a new, scientifically advanced delivery technology to broaden the capabilities of cosmetic skincare forever. Utilizing patented Tiered-Release VesiclesTM, Ourself "hero" products ensure deep ingredient delivery, sending larger molecules, powerful peptides and all-in-one formulations directly to the layer of the skin where they're needed most to improve loss of volume, lines & wrinkles, and uneven pigmentation. Ourself developed the first non-injectable Lip Filler clinically proven to restore volume by delivering two sizes of hyaluronic acid into the lips, topically. Ourself is based in Carlsbad, CA.

Liverpool have opened up a seven-point lead at the top of English football's Premier League, coming back from a goal down to beat Leicester City 3-1 at Anfield. Struggling Leicester took a shock early lead just six minutes into the match before Liverpool equalised on the stroke of half-time. They took the lead early in the second half and netted their third late in the match. The victory extends Liverpool's unbeaten league run to 13 games and moves them up to 42 points at the top of the standings. Defending champions Manchester City continued their slide down the standings with a 1-1 draw with Everton. City have just one win to show for their last 13 matches across all competitions, tumbling to seventh in the table, five points behind Arsenal in fourth place, having played a game more. Nottingham Forest moved up to third with a 1-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur. Fulham came from behind to put a dent in second placed Chelsea's title ambitions with a 2-1 win in their London derby, scoring their first win at Stamford Bridge in 45 years. Newcastle United crushed 10-man Aston Villa 3-0 and Manchester United lost for the fourth time in five Premier League games, going down 2-0 at Wolverhampton Wanderers. West Ham United edged bottom of the table Southampton 1-0. Bournemouth slipped to sixth after being held to goal-less draw by Crystal Palace. - ReutersSimone Biles learned the hard way that WAG life isn’t always glamorous — even during the holiday season. Biles, 27, and her husband, Jonathan Owens , were forced to spend Christmas evening in a hotel ahead of Owens and the Chicago Bears facing off against the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday, December 26. “Christmas looks a lil different when ya man gotta report to the hotel,” Biles posted via her Instagram Story on Wednesday, December 25. Despite the Bears playing at Chicago’s Soldier Field on Thursday evening, many NFL teams will stay in hotels — with curfews — the night before home games. Despite Owens’ strict schedule, Biles did manage to make it out for a little festive fun with Torrie Brown , the partner of Bears tight end Marcedes Lewis . “Merry christmas @torriesbrown,” Biles posted via her Instagram Story with the pair holding up a couple of orange cocktails. Brown reposted the image to her own Instagram Story , calling Biles her “Christmas boo.” Biles has been a regular fixture at Owens’ games, both home and away, since wrapping the Gold Across America tour in early November. The celebrated gymnast has been forced to adapt to a new kind of normal when it comes to the holidays, as she exclusively told Us Weekly ahead of the Bears game in Detroit against the Lions on Thanksgiving last month. “I’ll fly up in the morning and fly right back, just so we can still spend Thanksgiving together,” Biles told Us. “Holidays are revolving around sports right now, especially in the football world with them sometimes playing.” While she was at the game cheering on her husband, Biles employed a crew back at the house to make sure everything ran smoothly. “We’ll just have a chef come and cook,” Biles explained. “I think some of his teammates will come through and grab a plate, especially if they don’t have family in the area. It is a little bit more difficult, but it is kind of nice that we can just relax.” After the Bears Thursday Night Football game against the Seahawks, Chicago will conclude its season on Sunday, January 5 in Green Bay against the Packers.

Jonathan wanted a half-basketball court, a barbeque pit, all of the good stuff. We did put an in-ground trampoline and a pool.” Biles continued, “We’re literally almost there.”

CBC resurrects plans for live New Year’s Eve broadcast specialsGerry Hutch is in danger of having to give up his Dail seat if he is elected to Leinster House to represent the Dublin Central Constituency . Under the rules of the Oireachtas and the constitution no member can serve in the Dail if they are serving a current jail sentence of six months or more. The Monk is currently out on bail and facing serious money laundering accusations in Spain. READ MORE - Dee Devlin accompanies Conor McGregor in court as sex assault case jury resumes deliberations READ MORE - Mountjoy prisoner rushed to hospital after being slashed in stomach by fellow inmate However, if he is charged and convicted by the authorities in Lanzarote he will face a lengthy jail sentence and a very hefty fine. Hutch was given bail of more than €100,000 a few weeks ago so he could return home to stand in the General Election. He had been living in Lanzarote most of the time since he was released from jail over 18 months ago following his acquittal at the Special Criminal Court over the Regency Hotel murder of David Byrne. He had pleaded not guilty. It could take prosecutors on the Canary Islands at least a year before deciding if the Monk has a case to answer. They are investigating where he got the cash to pay for a large number of rental holiday homes and apartments which he owns in Lanzarote. Hutch denies any wrong-doing and claims it is all paid for by legitimate income. The bookies and many political pundits believe Hutch could be the surprise package in the General Election and has a good chance of winning one of the four seats in the constituency. No private opinion polls have been carried out in the constituency so no one has a clue how he is doing. There is no love lost between Hutch and the Sinn Fein leader Mary Lou McDonald. A Sinn Fein source said: "We definitely have not carried out any private polling but we do not believe Gerry Hutch is a danger to Mary Lou McDonald's seat. "The ironic thing is if he is charged and then convicted in Spain and the sentence is more than six months he will have to resign his Dail seat if he is elected under the Constitution and then be sent to Spain to go to jail. There will be some fun and games then. "But the voters should know what the rule is before they elect him." There is no issue with people with previous criminal convictions serving in the Dail. Ironically, a number of those who did are former Sinn Fein members like infamous IRA gun runner and Kerry TD Martin Ferris and Dessie Ellis the Dublin North-West Sinn Fein TD who was convicted and sentenced to 10 years jail here for making bombs for the IRA . Deputy Ellis was extradited to Britain and accused of both the 1982 Hyde Park and Regents Park bombings in London as well as the 1983 Harrods bombing. However he was acquitted of all charges in 1991.

Johnnies don't fold in the cold to win D-III playoff openerCOLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A fight broke out at midfield after Michigan stunned No. 2 Ohio State 13-10 on Saturday as Wolverines players attempted to plant their flag and were met by Buckeyes who confronted them.

Ohio State police said in a statement “multiple officers representing Ohio and Michigan deployed pepper spray.” Ohio State police will investigate the fight, according to the statement. After the Ohio State players confronted their bitter rivals at midfield, defensive end Jack Sawyer grabbed the top of the Wolverines’ flag and ripped it off the pole as the brawl moved toward the Michigan bench. Eventually, police officers rushed into the ugly scene. Ohio State coach Ryan Day said he understood the actions of his players. “There are some prideful guys on our team who weren’t going to sit back and let that happen,” Day said. The two Ohio State players made available after the game brushed off questions about it. Michigan running back Kalel Mullings, who rushed for 116 yards and a touchdown, didn’t like how the Buckeyes players involved themselves in the Wolverines’ postgame celebration. He called it “classless.” “For such a great game, you hate to see stuff like that after the game,” he said in an on-field interview with Fox Sports. “It’s just bad for the sport, bad for college football. But at the end of the day, you know some people got to — they got to learn how to lose, man. ... We had 60 minutes, we had four quarters, to do all that fighting.” Michigan coach Sherrone Moore said everybody needs to do better. “So much emotions on both sides,” he said. “Rivalry games get heated, especially this one. It’s the biggest one in the country, so we got to handle that better.” — By MITCH STACY, Associated Press
