20.7.2021 14:32:08 CEST | ACCESS Newswire | Press release
TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / July 20, 2021 / Aberdeen Asia-Pacific Income Investment Company Limited (TSX:FAP) (the 'Company'), a closed-end investment company trading on The Toronto Stock Exchange ('TSX'), announced today that the TSX has accepted notice of its intention to make a normal course issuer bid, through which the Company will make open market purchases on the TSX or other Canadian alternative trading systems. During the bid, which will commence July 22, 2021 and end no later than July 21, 2022, the Company may purchase up to 2,537,230 ordinary shares, which is 5% of the total of the Company's 50,744,616 ordinary shares issued and outstanding as at July 12, 2021. The actual number of shares purchased, the time of the purchases and the prices at which the shares will be bought will depend upon future market conditions. The Company will not purchase in any 30 day period more than 1,014,892 ordinary shares, being 2% of the 50,744,616issued and outstanding ordinary shares as at July 12, 2021. The Company will cancel shares purchased under the bid.
Pursuant to a previous notice of intention to conduct a normal course issuer bid, under which the Company sought and received approval from the TSX to purchase up to 2,537,230 ordinary shares for the period July 22, 2020 to July 21, 2021, the Company did not buy back any ordinary shares for cancellation.
The Company's directors believe that from time to time the purchase of ordinary shares of the Company may be a worthwhile investment for the Company that should benefit continuing shareholders. The Company's directors believe that normal course issuer bid purchases of shares for cancellation may, by reducing the number of outstanding shares, reduce the discount that may exist between the market price of the shares and the Company's net asset value per share.

LiberNovo: From Spring Cleaning to Physical Renewal12.3.2026 09:00:00 CET | Press release
HONG KONG, HK / ACCESS Newswire / March 12, 2026 / As the annual ritual of spring cleaning approaches, a new movement in functional design is shifting the focus from tidying desks to restoring the bodies that sit at them. LiberNovo, a pioneer in health-first design, has announced its spring initiative: a fundamental reimagining of the smart workspace that prioritizes physical fluidity over static organization. New Season, New Standards For decades, office chair ergonomics centered on the "90-degree rule"-a rigid posture that modern research suggests is counterproductive. The true culprit of office fatigue isn't just sitting; it is the lack of movement. Prolonged static positions compress the spine and reduce circulation. LiberNovo's philosophy asserts that a "Spring Reset" is incomplete if it only addresses surface-level clutter while leaving the body in a state of constant strain. Engineering Movement At the core of this movement is the LiberNovo Omni, a chair designed to master Dynam

Liquid-Cooled Desktop System Runs Models up to 120B Parameters Locally With a Fully Open-Source Stack, Starting at $9,999 SANTA CLARA, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 11, 2026 / Tenstorrent, the AI computing company led by CEO Jim Keller, today announced TT-QuietBox™ 2 (Blackhole™). This whisper-quiet, liquid-cooled AI workstation runs models up to 120 billion parameters directly at your desk, ships with an entirely open-source software stack from compiler to kernel, and starts at $9,999. It marks the industry's first desktop AI workstation built on RISC-V architecture to deliver teraflop-class inference. The Inference Imperative The timing matters.
