U.S. Bank Expands Card Rewards MINNEAPOLIS -- BUSINESS WIRE -- U.S. Bank wants to make sure all drivers – regardless of what they drive – are rewarded for their purchases. That is why U.S. Bank has expanded the rewards on its business and consumer credit cards that reward cardmembers for gas station purchases to include equal rewards for electric vehicle (EV) charging transactions.

While many EV owners charge their vehicles at home, there are times on longer trips where they may use a public charging station. Cardmembers can now earn up to 4x points or 4% cash back for their EV charging transactions, depending on the terms and conditions of the rewards offered when using their cards for gas station purchases.

“We have expanded our card rewards to put EV charging transactions on par with gas,” said Steve Mattics, head of U.S. Bank Retail Payment Solutions. “We are continuously evaluating our credit card offerings to ensure we provide meaningful rewards to our customers, and as options for fueling vehicles expand from gas to a mix of gas and electric charging, we are making sure that our cards follow our customers’ needs and preferences.”

Mattics noted that, as an example, the U.S. Bank Altitude Connect® Visa Signature® Card provides cardmembers with 4X points for purchases at gas stations. Using this same card, cardmembers can now earn the same point value for their EV charges.

The United States has approximately 45,000 public EV charging stations, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.

U.S. Bancorp, with nearly 70,000 employees and $567 billion in assets as of September 30, 2021, is the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association. The Minneapolis-based company serves millions of customers locally, nationally and globally through a diversified mix of businesses: Consumer and Business Banking; Payment Services; Corporate & Commercial Banking; and Wealth Management and Investment Services. The company has been recognized for its approach to digital innovation, social responsibility, and customer service, including being named one of the 2021 World’s Most Ethical Companies and Fortune’s most admired superregional bank.

L’ORÉAL UNVEILS LATEST BEAUTY TECH INNOVATIONS

Coloright and Colorsonic, a 2022 CES Innovation Awards Honoree, reinvent consumer haircoloring experience through user-design breakthroughs at home and in the salon LAS VEGAS PRNewswire -- L’Oréal Group unveiled its latest beauty tech innovation to reinvent the entire hair coloration category: Colorsonic, a lightweight, handheld device that uses an innovative, mess-free process to mix hair color and apply it evenly, delivering consistent hair color results for consumers at home, and Coloright, an AI-connected hair color system for salon stylists that uses Virtual Try-on to project desired shades, and an algorithm that leads to an on-demand, customized hair color with more than 1,500 custom shades possibilities.

L’Oréal has the longest hair coloration heritage in the industry as it invented the world’s first safe, synthetic hair color formulation more than 100 years ago – creating what is now a $10 billion dollar industry. Today, a century later, the company once again reveals its hair coloration leadership by transforming the industry with two breakthrough innovations powered by cutting-edge technology alongside the most precise formulation.

“Our century-long, deep experience and leadership in hair coloration has allowed our researchers, data scientists and Tech engineers to completely revisit and reinvent the haircoloring experience for both: at home with Colorsonic, a unique Courtesy of L’Oréal user-designed re-usable device allowing a precise vibrant result of hair coloration, and for hair stylists with Coloright, the most personalized and advanced experience in hair salons to achieve desired hair color results anywhere in the world. L’Oréal’s BeautyTech leadership allows us to push the boundaries of tech multiplied by science for breakthroughs in more personalized, inclusive and sustainable beauty experiences,” said Barbara Lavernos, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, in Charge of Research, Innovation and Technology.

When the COVID-19 pandemic caused the temporary closure of many salons, the at-home hair color business grew by 6%. During this time, consumers experienced the challenges of an at-home haircoloring process that has remained virtually unchanged for decades, namely the messiness of hair dye and the difficulty of applying hair color to hard-to-reach places.

Developed in response to these consumer needs and refined over a five-year period, Colorsonic uses a custom mixer mechanism to combine a precise amount of developer and formula to create a hair color. The device then dispenses the right dose of hair color and applies it to the hair via an oscillating nozzle of bristles as they move in a zigzag pattern to evenly distribute it on the hair. In five steps, the consumer can: Select a hair color out of 40 shades on the Colorsonic website. The ammonia-free hair color kit is conveniently shipped directly to homes.

Load color cartridge into device for on-demand color mixing. The color and developer are kept separate until the device is turned on, a critical component to preserving the color and keeping it fresh.

Brush device from roots to ends for uniform color application. The oscillating nozzle—tested rigorously to prevent leaking, over saturation, and dripping—moves 300 times per minute to effectively cover hair quickly. An attachment is also included for those with long hair (shoulder length or longer).

Wait 30 minutes. Then rinse, style, and go.

Remove cartridge from device and store the remaining color, for easy touch-ups anytime. The cartridge system allows Colorsonic to store the remaining color for touchups and gray coverage.

thrilled to unveil technologies ahead of this year’s Consumer Electronics Show that modernize the experience for millions of people worldwide who color their hair at home and in the salon,” said Guive Balooch, Global Head of Research and Innovation’s Tech Incubator at L’Oréal. “We aim to leverage science and technology to solve age-old problems for consumers, and Colorsonic is a great example of the power of innovating for consumers by innovating with consumers.”

The unveiling of Colorsonic is a continuation of L’Oréal’s commitment to delivering exceptional personalized beauty experiences rooted in sustainability. Features that reflect this commitment include: Post-Consumer Recycled Plastic: Colorsonic is a reusable device with a recyclable formula cartridge that uses less plastic per application than home box hair color.

Reusable Gloves: Existing at-home hair color includes single-use gloves in every box. Colorsonic replaces single-use gloves with gloves that can be reused up to 10 times and are high-performing in protection.

Reduced Shipping Packaging: The Colorsonic device and color cartridges are shipped in certified recyclable paper mailers.

L’Oréal plans to launch Colorsonic to consumers in the U.S. beginning in early 2023.

L’Oréal will also unveil technology that modernizes the salon hair color experience.

The brand was created in 2017 by Amanda Harris, who proudly possesses over a decade in retail and IT. She has intertwined that prowess and adept skillfulness in project management and logistics with her desire to elevate black women everywhere with carefully formulated products.

Froliage was Harris’ ode to herself and her daughter. At the time she very first conceived the idea, a pregnant Harris spent her life up to that point with a relaxer. One day, it struck her. Her hair would vary from her daughter’s.

What started as a mother’s duty of teaching her daughter to love her natural tresses has exploded into a premier online store. However, Froliage is not merely just another web-based store. Froliage tells the story of every single Black woman who has her hair “tamed” with a heating tool to appear more refined. This line is a small black-owned business that creates jobs fostering the establishment of generational wealth for each person involved.

Not wanting to be outdone, Harris has continued to make purposeful strides in expanding her products. She has ventured beyond hair to skincare, cosmetics, a vegan line of products, and so much more.

ADAM GROSS TO SERVE AS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE COMMUNITY COMMISSION FOR PUBLIC SAFETY AND ACCOUNTABILITY CHICAGO – Today, Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot announced that Adam Gross has been appointed to serve as the first-ever Executive Director of the newly created and historic Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability. In this role, Executive Director Gross will be tasked with standing up the staff, operations, and budget of the newly created Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability.

“The establishment of a community-led Commission for oversight of the Chicago Police Department and its relevant agencies is a historic milestone for our city, and I am thrilled to announce that Adam Gross will serve as its first Executive Director,” said Mayor Lightfoot. “Under Adam’s leadership, the Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability will become a critically important piece of our city’s police accountability infrastructure and empower our communities to take the lead in this incredibly important work. I have the utmost confidence in Adam’s experience and ability to support and guide this new commission, and look forward to working with him as we work to make Chicago a national leader in police reform.”

Executive Director Gross is an attorney and policy expert with more than 30 years of experience in developing, advocating for, and implementing structural reforms. Most recently, he served as Director of the Police Accountability Program for Business and Professional People for the Public Interest, leading their efforts to increase public safety, enact systemic police reforms in Chicago, and ensure that those most directly affected by the reforms play an active role in

developing them. Since 2016, he has provided legal, policy, and technical support to community-based coalitions working on the ordinance that creates the Commission, including the Grassroots Alliance for Police Accountability and the Empowering Communities for Public Safety coalition.

Executive Director Gross also worked with Mayor Lightfoot on the Mayor’s Police Accountability Task Force and helped develop the Task Force’s key proposals for structural reform.

“I am honored and humbled to serve Chicago as the first-ever Executive Director of the newly created Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability,” said Executive Director Adam Gross. “Independent, civilian-led oversight of our police department and police accountability agencies is more important than ever before. I look forward to working with the Commission, District Councils, the Police Department, and partners across the city to give community members a greater opportunity to help build a safer and stronger Chicago. I am grateful to Mayor Lightfoot and the City Council for their leadership on this critical issue and appreciate their confidence in my leadership on this momentous and historic step for our city.”

The ordinance establishes a two-tiered model for civilian oversight including: The Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability: a city-wide, community-led oversight body (7 members, with four-year terms of office) District Councils: an elected body for each police district (3 members per district, 22 districts, with four-year terms of office)

As Executive Director, Adam will manage the team that supports the Commission and District Council’s work and will serve as the liaison and primary point of contact between the Commission and the Police Department, the Civilian Office of Police Accountability (COPA), the Police Board, the Deputy Inspector General for Public Safety, the Mayor’s Office, City Council, and the Consent Decree Monitor.

Executive Director Gross will also be responsible for hiring 14 full-time employees.

The City Council will nominate fourteen people and the Mayor will appoint seven of them to serve as interim commissioners until the first regular Commission is appointed. The Executive Director and staff will help support these seven interim commissioners and future permanent commissioners.

Once appointed, the Commission’s powers will include: Playing a central role in selecting and removing the Police Superintendent, COPA Chief Administrator, and Police Board members. When a vacancy occurs, interview, assess the qualifications of and recommend to the Mayor candidates having appropriate qualifications for the positions of Superintendent and Police Board member. The Commission may also introduce and by two-thirds majority vote adopt a resolution of no confidence in the Superintendent or a Police Board member. When a vacancy occurs, the Commission will appoint the COPA Chief Administrator with the advice and consent of the City Council. The Commission will have the authority to remove the COPA Chief Administrator for cause.

Urban Autism Solutions receives $20,000 grant from the Albert Pick, Jr. Fund Urban Autism Solutions has received a $20,000 grant from the Albert Pick, Jr. Fund to support STEM-focused learning opportunities at Growing Solutions Farm. The grant will help the farm maintain its busy production schedule while providing high-quality instruction to young adults with autism and related challenges who learn about urban agriculture and acquire transferrable job skills at the farm.

“The Albert Pick, Jr. Fund is pleased to partner with Urban Autism Solutions to support its Growing Solutions Farm, says Iris Krieg, executive director of the Albert Pick, Jr. Fund.

“The farm gives young adults with autism and related challenges an incredible opportunity to learn in a positive environment where their assets are valued and they are presented with exciting opportunities for their futures.”

Growing Solutions Farm is a 1.2-acre produce farm on Chicago’s West Side run by Urban Autism Solutions. The farm offers produce through a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) subscription and through weekly farm stands. It also donates 20 percent of the harvest to local food banks through Grace Seeds Ministry.

Transition-aged (16 – 22 years old) students with autism and related challenges from West Side Chicago public high schools learn through hands-on experience as they work at the farm while gaining transferrable job skills such as following directions, working as a team, getting to work on time, interacting effectively with co-workers and managing work tasks and schedules.

Guided by our lead grower, participants learn everything about urban agriculture including light construction, food safety and sanitation, how to plant and maintain crops, create nutrient-rich compost and how to harvest, wash and package food for sale at our farm stands, through our CSA and to small businesses, restaurants and wholesalers.

Much of the work at the farm requires basic math, geometry and science knowledge, such as determining the number of seeds needed to cover a specific area,

evenly spacing out seedlings, and measuring lumber or other materials needed for light construction projects.

Students learn basic geometry as they build garden beds and trellises (angles, rectangles) and think about supporting loads (how strong does a trellis need to be to support the weight of a vine as it grows). The concepts of volume and space are used as students determine how much produce is needed to fill different-sized containers (how many tomatoes fit in a pint-sized container). Students also use scales to weigh produce for packaging. Science plays a big role in urban agriculture from watching the weather to understanding basic earth science, and the layers of ground that need to be soaked for watering.

“This hands-on approach to STEM subjects is much more effective for this population than learning these

concepts in a classroom or reading a textbook,” says Heather M. Tarczan, executive director of Urban Autism Solutions.

“At the farm, students learn by doing and with the help of lots of visual aids. This grant will allow our lead grower to take the time to help students understand and apply STEM ideas like measurements and weights as well as some biology and soil science in a unique, immersive environment.”

Almost all UAS participants come from households with incomes at or below the federal poverty level. To support the health and well-being of families, students take home a bag of fresh produce from the farm each week. Many students live in food deserts where access to fresh produce is limited, and there are exceptionally high rates of diabetes and heart disease. By bringing home a bag of fresh produce each week, students incorporate fresh vegetables into their diets to displace empty calories from sugary snacks.

“The farm experience is so special because it’s so many things at once: it’s a place to try on what it’s like to work, it’s a hands-on STEM laboratory and it’s a place to just get outside, get your hands dirty and have fun,” says lead grower, Tucker Kelly. “To get to literally see the fruits of your labor is a very powerful thing for our students.”

The Albert Pick, Jr. Fund was established as a general-purpose, private foundation to meet the needs of the Chicago, Illinois area community.

The Foundation makes annual and multi-year grants to nonprofit organizations in Chicago.

Since its establishment in 2012, Urban Autism Solutions has served more than 1,000 young adults through innovative, person-centered programs that focus on the acquisition of life skills, community integration, social interaction, and vocational training. Whether we are serving West Side Chicago public high school students at our UAS West Side Transition Academy or at Growing Solutions Farm, or offering opportunities to the broader autism community for socialization through Network 1212 or our other programs, UAS believes that all young adults living with autism and other learning differences are valued members of society.
