Key Takeaways

- Harmonic's cOS™ virtualized platform enables Lightcurve to deliver up to 8 Gbps downstream and 1 Gbps upstream to MDUs over existing coax infrastructure.

- Reusing in-building wiring, Lightcurve can offer competitive speeds without the cost of fiber overbuild.

- The virtualized access architecture supports multi-gigabit speeds over DOCSIS while preserving optionality for fiber in the future.

SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Harmonic (NASDAQ: HLIT) today announced that broadband service provider Lightcurve, serving communities across central and western Washington state, is delivering multi-gigabit services to Multi-Dwelling Units (MDUs) over existing coax wiring using Harmonic's cOS™ virtualized broadband platform. The Harmonic solution enables Lightcurve to offer fiber-like speeds of up to 8 Gbps downstream and 1 Gbps upstream without replacing the buildings' existing coax wiring. This approach helps Lightcurve strengthen its competitive market positioning and meet subscriber demand for higher speeds while maximizing the value of its network investments.

"By pairing Harmonic's Oyster solution with cOS and with the coax infrastructure already in place in the communities we serve, we're able to bring multi-gigabit speeds to our MDU customers quickly and cost-effectively, while keeping the door open to fiber as our network continues to evolve," said Dr. Pao Lo, COO at Lightcurve. "It's the kind of practical, forward-looking approach our subscribers in Washington state have come to expect from Lightcurve."

Lightcurve is advancing its multi-gigabit broadband service strategy through a swift, efficient software upgrade of the cOS Core combined with the deployment of Harmonic's compact low-power Oyster nodes equipped with Pebble Remote PHY devices in a distributed access architecture (DAA). The cOS virtualized platform supports both DOCSIS and fiber, giving the operator the optionality to evolve its network as customer demand and investment priorities shift.

Lightcurve is also using Harmonic's Central AI-driven network intelligence and operations to gain continuous network analytics and visibility. This enables Lightcurve to proactively identify and troubleshoot service issues, supporting a consistent subscriber experience.

"Lightcurve's network strategy is a solid example of how operators can deliver true fiber-like performance without the time, cost and disruption of a fiber overbuild," said Jeffrey Glahn, Senior Vice President of Global Sales at Harmonic. "With our open cOS platform, Lightcurve can unlock multi-gigabit speeds over its existing coax infrastructure while preserving full optionality to bring fiber to the network on its own timeline. This is exactly the flexible, capital-efficient path to multi-gigabit broadband that many operators need today."

Harmonic will showcase its market-leading cOS virtualized broadband platform and latest broadband innovations at SCTE TechExpo26, Sept. 29-Oct. 1, in booth A153. To schedule a meeting with Harmonic, visit www.harmonicinc.com/events/scte-techexpo.

When the Moment Clicks, the Z5IIC is for Those Ready to Embrace the Superior Image Quality of a Full-Frame Mirrorless Camera with Intuitive Features and Easy Operation

MELVILLE, N.Y., Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Nikon announced the new Z5IIC, a compact, everyday-carry mirrorless camera designed to make the move to full-frame photography feel natural and approachable. Built on the proven performance of the award-winning Z5II, the Z5IIC combines a sleek, flat-top design with intuitive features such as Scene Modes, helping those beginning their photography journey achieve satisfying results without first mastering complex settings. Users can stay present and confidently capture spontaneous everyday moments with rich color, natural depth and sharp detail, even in low light or motion-filled situations where smartphones may struggle.

The Z5IIC is designed around a screen-first shooting experience that helps users remain immersed in the moment. Omitting a viewfinder reduces the size of the camera but also keeps users connected to what's going on around them. A beautiful touchscreen feels instantly familiar and invites a more casual, expressive way of shooting and sharing.

"The Nikon Z5IIC represents an important step in expanding access to full-frame photography for a new generation of creators," said Fumiko Kawabata, Sr. Vice President of Marketing and Planning, Nikon Inc. "As more consumers look beyond smartphones and seek higher image quality without added complexity, the Z5IIC delivers the performance, creativity and confidence they need in a compact, approachable design."

Capture The Spark: User-Friendly Features for First-Time Mirrorless Camera Users

The Z5IIC brings the proven performance of the Z5II into a more accessible, screen-centric design. Its 24.5-megapixel full-frame sensor, EXPEED 7 image-processing engine and advanced shooting capabilities deliver the impressive image quality and responsiveness users expect from a more advanced camera. Yet the "C" stands for casual: intuitive controls and automated features help first-time mirrorless users achieve satisfying photos and videos quickly, without first mastering complex camera settings. As their confidence and skills grow, the camera's deeper controls and access to the NIKKOR Z lens system provide a dependable platform they can continue using for years. Key features include:

- For the first time in a Nikon full-frame mirrorless camera, Scene Modes simplify the process of choosing the right settings for different subjects and situations. Users simply select the scene that best matches what they are photographing, and the camera automatically optimizes color, brightness, white balance, Picture Control and other imaging settings. Fifteen Scene modes are available, ranging from portraits, pets and food to more challenging situations such as night landscapes and twilight, helping users capture each scene with settings tailored to the moment.

- The Nikon Z5IIC features a dedicated button that gives users instant access to colorful and expressive Imaging Recipes, to easily capture impressive photos and video without concern for shooting settings. A full library of recipes, including those created by Nikon Ambassadors and leading creators is available on Nikon Imaging Cloud.

- Fast, precise autofocus built on deep-learning technology automatically detects and tracks people, dogs, cats, birds, vehicles, aircraft and fish1, helping maintain sharp focus on the intended subject, including locking into the eyes. For first-time full-frame users, reliable subject detection removes much of the guesswork, making it easier to capture sharp photos and video of fast-moving children, pets, sports and everyday moments.

- Setting the Z5IIC to AUTO mode analyzes the subject and scene, then automatically optimizes autofocus, aperture, shutter speed and ISO sensitivity. This gives newer photographers a dependable starting point, helping them achieve satisfying results immediately while learning more advanced controls at their own pace.

- Five-axis In-camera vibration reduction (VR) image stabilization with up to 7.5 stops*2 of correction allows users to capture blur-free photos and shake free videos, even when the perfect shot presents itself unexpectedly.

- The Z5IIC features the Film Grain function3 making it easy to capture photos and video with a nostalgic film look. This is a dynamic and organic-feeling film simulation that allows the user to adjust the size and intensity of the grain to suit their personal taste.

A Compact and Stylish Design Ideal for Everyday Carry

- The smooth, streamlined flat-top design slips easily in and out of a bag, helping users keep the camera close and ready for everyday moments.

- The Z5IIC is available in two colors; silver and black, allowing users to choose the one that best suits their preferences. The model is constructed of durable magnesium alloy for a premium, metallic feel.

- The Z5IIC's new design weighs in at just 21.9 ounces / 620 grams, making it a must-pack companion for any excursion, whether it's down the street or across the globe.

- The large and bright 3.2-inch vari-angle monitor enables shooting from a variety of positions, from low angles to over-the-head shots. The monitor can also be turned around for simple vlogging and selfies.

- Careful attention to dust- and drip-resistance, combined with a body that uses magnesium alloy in key areas for added rigidity lets users shoot confidently outdoors.

Outstanding Image Quality Made Possible by a Full-Frame Mirrorless Camera

- The Z5IIC pairs a 24.5-megapixel Full Frame backside-illuminated CMOS sensor with Nikon's EXPEED 7 image-processing engine – the same technology platform used in Nikon's flagship cameras. Together with NIKKOR Z lenses, it captures rich color, smooth sunset gradations, natural background blur and cleaner detail in dimly lit scenes. For first-time full-frame users, that means visibly superior photos and videos with less noise and blur, even when the light is challenging.

- High-speed continuous shooting at up to approximately 14 fps enables users to capture the decisive moments of fast-moving subjects. Users can also shoot up to 15-30 fps for extreme speed.

- The Pre-Release Capture function can be set to record up to one second before the shutter is released in High-Speed Frame Capture +4 mode, which enables continuous shooting at up to 30 fps.

Video Features for all Kinds of Creators

- The Z5IIC supports recording at frame sizes and rates up to 4K UHD at 60 fps5 and Full HD at 120 fps, as well as slow-motion recording at 4× and 5×6, making it easy to produce impressive short-form videos without post-processing.

- When recording video, the REC lamp / tally light is lit and a red frame indicator is shown around the monitor display, so users know when they're recording.

- Product Review Mode smoothly shifts focus to an item brought close to the camera, making it easy to record review and product centric videos.

- Support for H.265 10-bit (MOV) and N-Log7 recording that enables users to take the next step into more advanced video production.

- With UVC / UAC support, the camera can also be used for live streaming simply by connecting it to a PC via USB cable, and offers a range of video features.

- Recording of N-RAW8 video to an SD memory card is also supported, as well as N-LOG capture.

Price and Availability

The new Nikon Z5IIC will be available in mid-October 2026 for a suggested retail price of $1399.95* for the body only, or $1699.95* packaged with the NIKKOR Z 24-50mm f/4-6.3 lens. Soft bundles with the 26mm f/2.8 pancake and 40mm f/2 will also be available through various retailers.

New RADAR integrations bring OOH into the measurement systems marketers already use to make media investment decisions

NEW YORK, Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Clear Channel Outdoor (NYSE: CCO) today announced the expansion of its Clear Channel Outdoor RADAR® data platform, connecting out-of-home (OOH) audience, exposure and delivery data with the omnichannel measurement solutions marketers already use.

The expansion includes an industry-first partnership with LiveRamp's Cross-Media Intelligence, making Clear Channel the first OOH media company integrated into the solution, as well as integrations with TransUnion's Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM) and Multi-Touch Attribution (MTA) solutions. Together, these enhancements enable OOH exposure to flow into the same measurement frameworks used to evaluate CTV, social, search, digital video and audio, giving marketers greater visibility into OOH's contribution to campaign performance and media investment decisions.

"OOH has always been a powerful medium, but marketers need to be able to see its contribution within the same measurement frameworks they use across the rest of their media plans," said Dan Levi, EVP and Chief Marketing Officer at Clear Channel Outdoor. "By expanding RADAR through integrations with LiveRamp and TransUnion, we're making it easier for brands and agencies to understand how OOH contributes to campaign performance and make more informed decisions about where to invest their next media dollar."

As marketing budgets become increasingly guided by measurement, marketers need to understand how each channel contributes to campaign performance and where future investment can have the greatest impact. Historically, OOH has not always been represented in measurement models with the same level of audience and exposure detail available for other media channels. OOH is often excluded, grouped into "offline/other" categories, or represented primarily through a spend line, making it harder to accurately assess its contribution to marketing results.

Through LiveRamp's Cross-Media Intelligence, OOH exposure can be measured and deduplicated against other media exposures, giving marketers a unified view into which audiences are responding, interacting and converting across publishers and channels. Separately, TransUnion allows RADAR exposure data to be resolved against identity for MTA, while granular OOH delivery data feeds MMM. Together, these capabilities give brands and agencies greater visibility into OOH's contribution alongside other channels and customer touchpoints.

The integrations extend how marketers can measure OOH across the media plan. OOH exposure can be incorporated into LiveRamp's Cross-Media Intelligence alongside CTV, social, programmatic, audio and other media, and measured across the full media plan without double-counting exposures across channels. This provides marketers with a more complete view of campaign performance rather than requiring OOH to be evaluated separately. As the first OOH media company integrated into LiveRamp's Cross-Media Intelligence, Clear Channel is continuing to advance how OOH is incorporated into cross-media measurement.

"Cross-media measurement is most valuable when it gives marketers a complete picture of performance across their media mix," said Adam Solomon, VP, Product Management at LiveRamp. "By integrating Clear Channel Outdoor's data into Cross-Media Intelligence, we're helping marketers understand how OOH contributes alongside other channels and make more informed decisions about where to invest."

RADAR data also feeds TransUnion's MMM and MTA solutions, bringing OOH delivery and exposure data into both portfolio-level media modeling and customer-level attribution. Granular OOH delivery data provides a more meaningful input for evaluating OOH's contribution and informing future media allocation, while RADAR exposure data can be resolved against TransUnion's identity foundation, enabling OOH to be incorporated as a touchpoint within the customer journey.

"Marketers need measurement approaches that can connect media investment to business outcomes across the full customer journey," said Julie Clark, SVP of media and entertainment at TransUnion. "Bringing Clear Channel Outdoor's RADAR data into our MMM and MTA solutions gives marketers more meaningful inputs to assess OOH's contribution at both the portfolio and customer levels, helping inform future media allocation and optimization."

About Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc.

Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings Inc. (NYSE: CCO) is at the forefront of driving innovation in the out-of-home advertising industry. Our dynamic advertising platform is broadening the pool of advertisers using the medium through the expansion of digital billboards and displays and the integration of data analytics and programmatic capabilities that deliver measurable campaigns that are simpler to buy.

The Green Bay Packers, an iconic professional American football team established in 1919, are the only community-owned team in U.S. professional sports, with more than half a million fans owning shares in the club. Remarkably, though the team plays in Green Bay, Wisconsin—by far the smallest city in the National Football League with just over 100,000 residents—the Packers are the league's most successful franchise, with 13 championships, including four Super Bowls. The club's legendary home stadium, Lambeau Field, has sold out every game since 1960 and is celebrated as one of the best gameday experiences in sports. Generations of Packers season ticket holders are known to warmly welcome all fans to their pregame tailgate parties. The entire state of Wisconsin rallies behind the Packers, with fans proudly referring to themselves as "Cheeseheads" in a nod to the state's dairy heritage, made famous by the foam cheese hat now recognized worldwide as a symbol of the team. The Packers are more than an American football club; they are a beloved tradition that unites a community, a state and fans around the world.

EAST LYME, Conn., Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Chad and Jennifer Sklodosky are bringing Stretch Zone's practitioner-assisted stretching services to their hometown with today's opening of East Lyme Stretch Zone.

The new studio marks the Sklodoskys' second Stretch Zone opening, with a third location also in development. For the couple, the East Lyme studio carries special significance.

"This location is special to us because both my wife and I grew up in East Lyme where we met in high school and eventually got married," said Chad Sklodosky, owner of East Lyme Stretch Zone. "We are excited to bring something new to the community that can help people improve their flexibility and mobility and stay active."

Chad was initially drawn to Stretch Zone because of the brand's focus on wellness and its straightforward business model. Before becoming a Stretch Zone franchise owner, he spent more than 30 years working for a local Fortune 500 company, focusing on business administration and operational excellence.

Today, one of his favorite parts of owning Stretch Zone locations is hearing directly from clients about how their stretching sessions have impacted their daily lives.

"Hearing the feedback from our clients on how much better they feel after a good stretch, or hearing their stories on how they can now be more active as a result of our services," Chad said, is one of the most rewarding aspects of owning a Stretch Zone.

Stretch Zone uses a practitioner-assisted stretching method designed to help clients improve flexibility and mobility. During a session, trained practitioners guide clients through stretches while using specialized tables and a patented strapping system to help isolate specific muscle groups and provide stability throughout the session.

The approach is designed to make stretching accessible to people who may struggle to maintain a consistent stretching routine on their own.

"Everyone knows that they should stretch, but few actually do it, or do it correctly," said Chad. "Our goal is to give the East Lyme community an easy, approachable way to make flexibility and mobility part of their wellness routine."

East Lyme Stretch Zone will be led by General Manager and Regional Manager Amanda Gray. The studio will serve residents looking to incorporate practitioner-assisted stretching into their wellness and fitness routines.

For the Sklodoskys, opening in East Lyme is also an opportunity to contribute to the community that shaped them.

"We are proud to come back to the community where our story began and introduce our neighbors to a different approach to stretching and mobility," said Chad.

Chad also has deep roots in the local area. He is the youngest of 10 children and comes from a family of carpenters who have built and refurbished many homes throughout the community.

About Stretch Zone

Stretch Zone is a practitioner-assisted stretching concept focused on helping clients improve flexibility and mobility. Stretch Zone practitioners use a proprietary stretching method, specialized equipment, and a patented strapping system to provide clients with a customized assisted stretching experience.

East Lyme Stretch Zone is located in East Lyme, Connecticut. The studio is owned by Chad and Jennifer Sklodosky and opened today, September 24.

Gauff to compete for the Florida Flamingos this December

Gauff, who grew up in Delray Beach, has a history of building community and honoring her hometown, from refurbishing the Pompey Park tennis courts in partnership with the USTA's US Open Legacy Initiative in 2024 and launching the Coco Delray shoe collaboration with New Balance in 2025, to her ongoing work through the Coco Gauff Foundation. World Team Tennis and the Florida Flamingos are another opportunity to cultivate community and shape how the next generation of local fans experience the sport.

As part of WTT's relaunch this December, the league is focused on value through variety by providing fans the opportunity to watch eight elite players compete in a traditional match window that typically showcases two.

The luxury performance brand introduces a new vision for strong women, bringing high fashion, performance design and proprietary fit research into the gym and beyond.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Danimás, the luxury performance brand founded by visionary businesswoman, producer, sports league owner, and former professional bodybuilder Dany Garcia, today announced its expansion into ready-to-wear, with the launch of its Fall/Winter 2026 collection.

As more women embrace strength training, their bodies—and their expectations of fashion—are changing. Danimás was created around the belief that fashion, fit and the culture surrounding women has not evolved at the same pace. Fall/Winter 2026 introduces a new wardrobe for the Athlete of Life™: a woman who brings the strength, discipline and ambition she builds through training into every part of her life.

"Women should be able to express themselves in the gym with the same freedom, confidence and glamour they bring to every other part of their lives," said Dany Garcia, Founder and Co-CEO of Danimás. "That was a void I experienced personally. I could find extraordinary fashion for the rest of my life, but when I walked into the gym, the choices became much narrower. Danimás was created to change that. We are bringing luxurious materials, exceptional design and true performance into the training environment—so women never have to compromise and leave their sense of style at the door. For me, muscle is luxury, and the clothes we train in should reflect the same ambition."

Danimás first established its design language through a growing collection of elevated training and lifestyle accessories, including weight belts created with Cardillo USA, technical lifting gloves engineered with Harbinger Fitness, and Italian-made gym bags that bring the craftsmanship and polish of luxury leather goods to the training category. Ready-to-wear is the next expression of that vision, expanding Danimás from the products women train with and carry, into a wardrobe built around how strong women live.

Rather than relying solely on conventional fashion sizing and proportions, Danimás developed the collection's fit architecture through proprietary research into the bodies and wardrobes of women who strength train. The study examined how muscular development can influence proportion, garment balance and fit across key areas of the body, with those insights informing the brand's approach to patternmaking and product development. The result is apparel designed around the realities of the strength-trained female form—for women with muscle, and those on their way to building it.

For Fall/Winter 2026, Danimás introduces 28 styles across 60 SKUs, beginning with a Fall delivery in September and followed by a Holiday drop in October. These collections focus on lifestyle pieces designed to move in and beyond the gym, with every style considering range of motion for a distraction-free fit and fabrics chosen for breathability, comfort, handfeel and luxury.

Among the collection's signatures is the Everything Jogger, offered in breathable taffeta for $325 and nappa leather for $1,995. Adjustable ankle snaps allow the silhouette to cinch at the calf for leg-day workouts, transforming a familiar athletic staple through the Danimás lens of fashion, function and versatility.

The Warm-Up Jacket and Pant, each retailing for $425, pair recycled Italian matte nylon with contrasting shine "D" inserts that introduce a signature Danimás design code. Two-way zippers on the jacket and full-length zippers along the pants allow each piece to adjust for movement, styling and ease.

The MVP Tracksuit rounds out the collection's core statements. Made from LuminousTricot selected for its exceptional handfeel and fluid drape, the MVP Jacket ($495) and MVP Pant ($425) elevate the ease of a traditional tracksuit into a modern wardrobe staple.

The collection is manufactured in New York City and Portugal using textiles sourced from leading mills in Italy and France. Performance materials are BPA and PFA free and adhere to EU environmental requirements, bringing together performance functionality with the construction, materiality and finish of luxury fashion.

"Women who strength train have historically been asked to compromise—on fit, function or fashion," said Liz Edmiston, Co-CEO of Danimás. "We saw an opportunity to build the category differently from the ground up: beginning with research, developing fit around the strength-trained female body, sourcing exceptional European fabrics and creating products with the standards of a fashion house. Ready-to-wear is an important step toward our ambition to build Danimás into the defining lifestyle brand for the Athlete of Life."

The Danimás Fall/Winter 2026 Ready-to-Wear collection launches September 24, 2026, exclusively at danimas.com, with prices ranging from $150 to $1,995. The Holiday collection will drop in October, with activewear debuting in Spring 2027.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- LandSouth Construction, a leading multifamily general contracting company serving developers across the Southeast, has launched a new website designed around the way today's developers research, evaluate, and select construction partners.

More than a refreshed digital presence, the new LandSouth website, www.LandSouth.com is built to make decades of construction experience easier to find, explore, and put to work.

Developers, owners, investors, and project partners, want an easy way to see relevant experience, understand the market, explore past projects, and feel confident that a general contractor partner can deliver. The new website puts all that information in one place, making it simpler to find what matters most for each project.

"We created the website with today's developers in mind," said Jason Cromer, President of LandSouth. "Most people do their homework before they pick up the phone. They want to see the work like theirs, understand what we do and where we do it, and quickly get a sense of whether LandSouth could be the right partner. The new site makes those answers easier to find."

Built Around the Developer's Search

The new website reflects LandSouth's experience across the multifamily construction industry, with a structure that makes it easier to explore projects by market, location, and construction expertise.

Developers can more easily discover LandSouth's work across multifamily luxury housing, HUD/affordable housing, and other specialized development sectors.

The site also brings greater visibility to the depth of LandSouth's project history, giving prospective clients a clearer view of the company's experience and the types of projects it has helped developers navigate over the course of its nearly 30-year history.

A Digital Platform for the Next Generation of Development

The launch represents another step in LandSouth's broader evolution of its digital infrastructure and communications strategy.

As developers increasingly use digital search, data, and emerging AI-powered tools to identify potential partners, LandSouth is creating a digital experience that makes its expertise more accessible, structured, and relevant to the questions developers are asking.

The result is a website designed not just to tell LandSouth's story, but to help developers find the information they need to make better-informed decisions.

"A strong construction partnership often starts well before the first proposal or preconstruction meeting," said Jason Cromer. "We want developers to be able to tap into LandSouth's experience from the moment they start exploring a project and looking for answers."

The new LandSouth Construction website is now live at www.LandSouth.com.

Panel at Harvard University will explore translating evidence in diseases of aging into new therapeutics and regulatory pathways

SEATTLE, Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Atossa Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATOS) ("Atossa" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced that Steven Quay, M.D., Ph.D., Atossa's President and Chief Executive Officer, will participate as a panelist at the 13th Aging Research and Drug Discovery Meeting (ARDD 2026), being held October 1–3, 2026, at the David Rubenstein Treehouse at Harvard University in Boston, MA.

The discussion will explore the translation of scientific evidence in aging and age-related diseases into clinical development programs, including the design of clinical trials, development of new therapeutics and regulatory considerations for advancing potential treatments to patients.
