- Jack Henry will be the first core banking technology provider to integrate with Google Cloud Universal Ledger (GCUL)

- Expanded capabilities help financial institutions innovate, retain deposits, and deliver new digital experiences

- The announcement builds on the strategic relationship Jack Henry and Google Cloud established in 2022

MONETT, Mo., Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Jack Henry® (Nasdaq: JKHY) today announced an expansion of its collaboration with Google Cloud designed to pave the way for banks and credit unions to offer tokenized deposits through Google Cloud Universal Ledger (GCUL). As part of the expanding relationship, Jack Henry will become the first core technology provider to integrate with GCUL, helping financial institutions modernize deposit offerings, strengthen accountholder relationships, and introduce new payment and settlement capabilities. GCUL is a fully managed, distributed ledger service that enables financial institutions to tokenize and transfer money and assets on a shared, real-time record with programmable, 24/7 settlement capabilities.

As consumer and business expectations continue to evolve toward real-time, programmable, and seamless financial experiences, community and regional financial institutions face growing competition from large banks and fintech providers. By integrating tokenized deposit infrastructure into Jack Henry's ecosystem, banks and credit unions can explore new transactional use cases, enhance digital experiences, and position themselves to meet emerging market demands.

"Tokenized deposits have the potential to reshape how money moves across the financial ecosystem," said Jack Henry Chief Technology Officer Ben Metz. "Our strategy is centered on helping financial institutions navigate emerging technologies and access innovative capabilities through trusted, scalable infrastructure. By expanding our work with Google Cloud and serving as the first core technology provider to use GCUL, we're helping community banks and credit unions explore new opportunities while building on the relationships, service, and expertise that have always set them apart."

Jack Henry and Google Cloud established their strategic relationship in 2022 to accelerate Jack Henry's cloud-native technology modernization strategy. Last June, the companies announced plans to deliver AI-driven security capabilities, integrating Google Cloud's agentic defense solutions to protect banks and credit unions against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. The integration with GCUL combines modern ledger technology with secure, scalable cloud infrastructure to help financial institutions explore new digital asset and payment capabilities.

Key benefits of tokenized deposits through GCUL include:

- Deposit Retention and Growth: Helps financial institutions retain deposit relationships while offering emerging digital payment and value-transfer capabilities.

- 24/7 Programmable User Experience and Near Real-Time Settlement: Provides end clients with instant, 24/7/365 payment execution and automated, programmable workflows across an expanding network of institutional participants, currencies, and asset classes. Supports automated settlement processes and programmable payment workflows that can improve efficiency and flexibility.

- Seamless Integration: Leverages Jack Henry's modern architecture to simplify adoption and reduce operational complexity.

- Trusted Enterprise Infrastructure: Blends Jack Henry's modern architecture to minimize operational friction and simplify adoption with Google Cloud's secure, scalable, and resilient distributed ledger infrastructure.

- Capital Efficiency: Maximizes capital efficiency through automated clearing and multilateral netting without requiring liquidity tie-ups or pre-funded accounts, enabling institutions to scale digital asset capabilities while fully preserving core reserves and primary deposit relationships.

"Financial innovation should be accessible to institutions of all sizes," said James Tromans, director, Web3 and Digital Assets at Google Cloud. "Google Cloud Universal Ledger provides a secure and scalable foundation for programmable value exchange. Through our collaboration with Jack Henry, we are bringing advanced digital asset capabilities to community and regional financial institutions, helping them build on the relationships and trust they have established with their customers."

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- DPR Construction, a forward-thinking, self-performing contractor, ranked No. 3 on Engineering News-Record's 2026 Top Green Contractors list, up from No. 4 in 2025.

ENR's annual Top Green Contractors list ranks firms based on revenue from construction services on projects registered with or certified by third-party organizations that establish standards for environmental impact, energy efficiency or carbon footprint.

"Every year, we challenge ourselves to find new and better ways to build more responsibly," said George Pfeffer, DPR Construction CEO and Leadership Team member. "The decisions made on a project can have an impact long after construction is complete. That responsibility drives our teams to keep improving and innovating alongside our customers and partners to deliver industry leading results."

The recognition comes as DPR continues to integrate sustainability into how projects are planned and delivered. Teams are incorporating environmental considerations into preconstruction, procurement and self-perform work, while expanding lifecycle analysis, developing guidance for lower-carbon materials and improving access to environmental product data. These efforts are helping teams evaluate options and reduce environmental impacts across projects.

"We are focused on demonstrating how our sustainability efforts translate into measurable results," said Ryan Poole, who leads sustainability at DPR Construction. "That means evaluating embodied carbon to make smarter material choices, conserving water, advancing zero-waste practices and accelerating the use of lower-emission equipment. The goal is turning innovation into practical solutions our teams can scale across every project."

Water strategies on major DPR projects saved more than 48 million gallons of freshwater in 2025 alone, according to DPR's 2025 Global Social Responsibility Annual Report. The report also details expanded use of lower-carbon concrete, cleaner equipment and lower emission fuels.

DPR is also working to make its environmental performance more transparent. Its Path to Regeneration provides a roadmap for reducing carbon emissions across its value chain and strengthening accountability over time. Ongoing improvements to environmental data and reporting are helping DPR better understand its impacts and track progress.

Across ENR's Top 100 Green Contractors, green contracting revenue increased 5.9% in 2025 to $101.9 billion. ENR also noted a more complex operating environment, with owners weighing sustainability goals alongside rising construction costs, labor constraints and shifting federal policies.

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Florida's housing market showed signs of stability in September and third quarter (3Q) 2026, with quarterly existing single-family home sales edging up 0.2% and condo-townhouse sales rising 3.1% year-over-year, according to Florida Realtors®' latest housing data. Median sales prices remained relatively steady while inventory tightened compared to a year ago.

"Florida's housing market continues to move at a more measured pace, with encouraging signs of stability heading into the final months of the year," said 2026 Florida Realtors President Chuck Bonfiglio, broker-owner of AAA Realty Group in Plantation. "Third-quarter sales remained steady, prices showed modest changes, and homes generally moved through the market faster than they did a year ago. That's a positive sign for buyers and sellers who are ready to make a move.

"Today's market rewards preparation and realistic expectations. A local Realtor® can help buyers understand their options and sellers position their homes competitively to achieve their goals."

Last month, closed sales of existing single-family homes statewide totaled 20,537, down 3.5% year-over-year, while existing condo-townhouse sales totaled 7,179, about the same (-0.1%) as September 2025, according to data from Florida Realtors Research Department in partnership with local Realtor boards/associations. For 3Q 2026, statewide existing single-family home sales totaled 65,904, up 0.2% the same time last year, while statewide existing condo-townhouse sales totaled 22,664, up 3.1% year-over-year. Closed sales may occur from 30- to 90-plus days after sales contracts are written.

With the year winding down, Florida Realtors Chief Economist Dr. Brad O'Connor notes that rising mortgage rates is the biggest story for the housing market, not only in Florida but throughout the United States.

"The fluctuation in rates over the last two years has not been significant by historical standards but given that the home sales growth we experienced over the past 12 to 14 months was rather modest, the rise in interest rates that's occurred so far this year has been enough to put a halt to this growth," he said. "So, we now find ourselves with a second straight month of declining year-over-year sales. It's not a major shift in the sales trend by any stretch, but whenever you go from positive to negative growth, there is a potential psychological impact.

"It's important to consider that the overall trend for home sales is not overwhelmingly different from what it was earlier this year. Still, the gap between where mortgage rates are right now and where they were a year ago is not doing the housing market any favors."

The statewide median sales price for single-family existing homes in September was $415,000, up 1.2% from a year ago, while the statewide median price for condo-townhouse units was $293,5000, down 1.8% compared to September 2025. For 3Q 2026, Florida's single-family median sales price was $420,000, up 2.4% compared to the same quarter a year ago; the condo-townhouse median for 3Q was $295,000, the same as it was a year ago. The median is the midpoint; half the homes sold for more, half for less.

On the supply side of the market, single-family existing homes were at a 4.4-months' supply in September and 3Q 2026, while condo-townhouse properties were at a 7.7-months' supply for both timeframes.

"As we head into the final quarter of 2026, the story remains one of a housing market that has lost some momentum, but certainly hasn't fallen apart," O'Connor said. "Higher mortgage rates are weighing on sales, particularly in the single-family market, but inventory and prices remain relatively stable, and the upper end of the market continues to perform quite well."

The article outlines how grip wear, performance changes, and maintenance needs affect golf club consistency in Mechanicsburg.

MECHANICSBURG, Pa., Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- How can golfers tell when it is time to repair or regrip their golf clubs?

HelloNation has published an article that provides the answer, featuring insights from David Klock of Next Shot Golf in Mechanicsburg, PA.

The HelloNation article explains that golf clubs play a direct role in performance, and even small changes can affect consistency. Many golfers in Mechanicsburg begin to notice subtle differences when their equipment no longer feels the same. Recognizing these changes early can help determine when golf club repair or golf club regripping is needed.

One of the most common signs involves the condition of golf club grips. Over time, golf club grips wear down from repeated use, moisture, and environmental factors. The article notes that worn golf grips may feel slick, smooth, or less responsive, making it harder to maintain control. Visible cracks or hardened areas are also clear indicators that it may be time to regrip golf clubs.

Performance changes are another important signal. The article describes how worn golf grips can lead to reduced control and inconsistent results, even when a golfer's swing remains the same. Golf grip replacement helps restore stability and improve confidence during play. Addressing these issues through golf club regripping can quickly improve how the club feels and performs.

The article also highlights that not all issues are related to grips. Changes in how the club feels at impact may point to structural concerns that require golf club repair. Loose heads, shaft problems, or unusual vibrations can all affect performance and safety. In these cases, proper golf club repair is necessary to restore the club's condition.

Routine golf club maintenance plays a key role in preventing larger problems. The article explains that regularly inspecting equipment helps identify worn golf grips and other issues before they worsen. Golf club maintenance includes checking for loose components, unusual sounds, or signs of wear that could affect performance over time.

Comfort is another factor that can indicate when to regrip golf clubs. The article notes that hardened or uneven golf club grips can create tension in the hands and arms. This tension may impact swing mechanics and reduce consistency. Golf grip replacement can restore a more comfortable feel, allowing for smoother motion and better control.

Environmental conditions can also accelerate wear. Golfers in Mechanicsburg who play frequently may notice worn golf grips developing more quickly due to heat, humidity, and regular use. The article emphasizes that monitoring golf club grips throughout the season and scheduling golf club regripping when needed helps maintain performance.

In addition to grip wear, the article explains that structural damage should not be ignored. Small cracks, loose ferrules, or rattling sounds are all signs that golf club repair may be required. Prompt attention to these issues helps prevent further damage and ensures equipment remains safe to use.

Understanding when to regrip golf clubs or pursue golf club repair comes down to paying attention to both feel and performance. The article concludes that consistent golf club maintenance, along with timely golf grip replacement, helps golfers maintain reliable equipment and improve overall consistency on the course.

The article outlines safe inspection steps, repair timelines, and insurance considerations after storm damage in Easton.

EASTON, Pa., Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- What should homeowners do after roof storm damage in Easton, PA?

The answer is detailed in a HelloNation article featuring Mike Fleck of Fleck Roofing & Construction, which explains how to safely assess damage, begin the insurance claim process, and move forward with roof repair.

The HelloNation article emphasizes that safety should come first after storm damage. Homeowners are advised not to climb onto the roof, as wet or damaged surfaces can be dangerous. Instead, a visual inspection from the ground is recommended to identify signs of storm damage such as missing shingles, broken gutters, or debris around the property.

Documenting storm damage is a critical early step. The article explains that taking clear photos of the roofline and any visible issues, along with interior signs like water stains, helps create a record that can support an insurance claim. Even minor storm damage can worsen quickly, making early documentation especially important for homeowners in Easton.

After documenting the situation, contacting a qualified roofing contractor is the next step. A professional roof inspection allows for a thorough evaluation of both visible and hidden damage. In many Easton homes, underlying issues such as weakened decking or worn materials may not be obvious without a full roof inspection. A knowledgeable roofing contractor can identify these concerns and recommend the appropriate roof repair plan.

Understanding the insurance claim process is another key part of recovery. Many policies in Easton cover storm damage caused by wind, hail, or debris, but proper documentation is essential. Working with a roofing contractor who is familiar with insurance claim requirements can help ensure that estimates and reports align with what insurers expect, reducing delays or complications.

In some cases, temporary protection may be necessary before full roof repair can begin. The article notes that tarping or patching can help prevent further water intrusion, but these measures should be handled by a professional roofing contractor. Attempting temporary repairs without proper experience can create safety risks and potentially affect an insurance claim.

Material selection also becomes important when planning repairs. Asphalt shingles are commonly used in Easton due to their affordability and reliability in local conditions. For homeowners seeking enhanced durability, metal roofing may be considered, especially in areas prone to heavy snow or hail. A roofing contractor can help determine which option best fits the property and budget.

The article stresses that delaying roof repair after storm damage can lead to more serious problems. Water infiltration, mold growth, and structural damage can develop quickly if issues are not addressed. Acting promptly helps minimize long-term costs and protects the integrity of the home.

Once repairs are complete, homeowners should review the work with their roofing contractor. Understanding what was repaired, along with any warranties on materials or workmanship, provides added peace of mind. Ongoing roof inspection and maintenance can also help identify future issues early and reduce the likelihood of repeated storm damage concerns.

The article concludes that taking immediate, organized steps after storm damage helps Easton homeowners protect their property and navigate the repair process more effectively. From initial documentation to professional roof inspection and timely roof repair, each step plays a role in reducing risk and ensuring long-term performance.

What Easton Homeowners Should Do After Roof Storm Damage features insights from Mike Fleck, Roofing, Siding, & Gutters Expert of Easton, PA, in HelloNation.
