Hola Weddings, a destination wedding travel agency, has expanded its portfolio of all-inclusive wedding packages across Mexico, Costa Rica, and the Dominican Republic in response to increasing demand from couples seeking affordable luxury ceremonies in tropical locations.
The expansion comes as destination weddings continue to gain popularity among couples looking to combine their celebration with a vacation experience for their guests. The agency now offers comprehensive packages at over 50 resort properties across seven Mexican destinations, three Dominican Republic locations, and throughout Costa Rica.
“We’re seeing more couples recognize that destination weddings can actually be more affordable than traditional hometown celebrations while offering an unforgettable experience for everyone involved,” said a Hola Weddings spokesperson. “Our expanded portfolio means we can match every couple with their ideal venue, whether they envision barefoot vows on a secluded beach or an elegant ceremony in a tropical garden setting.”

WILLOW GROVE, PA – October 21, 2025 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
All Pro Gutter Guards has announced the expansion of its service line to include aluminum seamless gutters, marking a new development in the company’s range of professional rainwater management solutions. The expansion, effective immediately at its Willow Grove, Pennsylvania location, supports the company’s continued focus on durable, professionally installed gutter systems designed for long-term structural protection.
“All Pro Gutter Guards is committed to delivering dependable installation practices that meet the needs of both new and existing homeowners,” said Pete Letushko, company representative at All Pro Gutter Guards. “Our addition of aluminum seamless gutters reflects our goal of offering solutions that combine precision fabrication with proven installation methods.”
Aluminum seamless gutters are designed to minimize the risk of leaks by eliminating joints along the length of the gutter system. Fabricated on-site for each property, these systems provide an uninterrupted channel for water flow, directing rainwater away from the structure to prevent erosion or water intrusion. By reducing seams, homeowners benefit from lower maintenance requirements and enhanced water management under typical weather conditions.
The installation process for seamless aluminum gutters at All Pro Gutter Guards involves precise measurement, custom fabrication, and secure mounting. Each system is manufactured using continuous aluminum coils, formed to specification, and professionally attached to ensure consistent alignment along the roofline. The company’s technicians undergo regular training and adhere to industry standards for both safety and performance.
Founded with a focus on gutter protection and maintenance, All Pro Gutter Guards operates from its Willow Grove office at 2220 Maplewood Avenue and serves clients throughout the surrounding Pennsylvania region. The company’s services include installation, inspection, and replacement of gutter systems, as well as the addition of protective covers to reduce debris accumulation. Its expansion into seamless aluminum gutters strengthens its ability to provide a full range of water diversion systems suitable for residential properties.
Industry data indicates that aluminum continues to be one of the most widely used materials for gutters due to its corrosion resistance, light weight, and ability to maintain structural integrity over time. Seamless fabrication techniques have become increasingly common among professional installers, as they improve system longevity and visual uniformity. The company’s integration of these methods aligns with general best practices recommended by construction and home improvement associations.
All Pro Gutter Guards’ addition of seamless aluminum gutters complements its existing offerings, which include traditional sectional gutters and protective gutter guard systems. While gutter guards focus on minimizing clogs from leaves and debris, the seamless aluminum option focuses on structural continuity and long-term performance. By providing both, the company enhances its capacity to address varied architectural and environmental needs.
The company’s operational model emphasizes measured fabrication and precision installation rather than mass production. Technicians use specialized roll-forming equipment on-site, allowing each system to be formed to the specific dimensions of the property. This approach ensures that each installation meets both design and functionality standards without relying on pre-cut segments or joints.
As part of the service expansion, All Pro Gutter Guards will continue to maintain its core installation and maintenance services for gutter protection systems. The introduction of seamless aluminum gutters will be available as an additional service for both new installations and replacement projects. The company aims to assist property owners seeking long-term drainage solutions designed to integrate with existing roof structures and exterior finishes.
All Pro Gutter Guards has grown its regional presence through consistent workmanship and adherence to established installation protocols. By expanding into seamless aluminum systems, the company reinforces its role as a professional service provider in the home exterior maintenance field, contributing to improved drainage performance and building protection.

After a year away from public appearances to recover from colorectal cancer, Dr. Andrea Adams-Miller, CEO of The RED Carpet Connection, LLC, is returning to the stage at the Million Dollar Mingle Business Symposium on Friday, November 7, 9 am- noon, as part of the Million Dollar Mingle Celebrity Charity Polo Weekend Experience, November 6-9, 2025. Hosted by AC Caswell, former Oakland Raider, entrepreneur, and philanthropist, the event will take place in Mesa, Arizona, bringing together athletes, executives, and influencers to raise proceeds for local community organizations. Dr. Adams-Miller’s presentation will explore how neuroscience and communication science strengthen resilience, adaptability, and influence in leadership.
Her return coincides with a growing national focus on leadership resilience and workplace adaptability. According to a 2024 report from the American Psychological Association, adaptability and emotional regulation are among the top predictors of long-term executive success. Dr. Adams-Miller’s keynote will connect these findings to decision-making, clarity, and effective communication in high-stakes environments.
“It’s an honor to host speakers like Dr. Andrea Adams-Miller,” said AC Caswell, founder of the Million Dollar Mingle and creator of the We Fight for Life campaign. “The symposium unites athletes, entertainers, and executives to raise proceeds for community-based charities that make a measurable difference in people’s lives.”
The Million Dollar Mingle Business Symposium crowd of over 3000+ attendees benefits several charitable initiatives, including: Mechelle Cares Foundation, providing resources and mentorship to help entrepreneurs build sustainable businesses; Arizona Smashers Foundation, empowering youth through baseball and softball programs that build teamwork, life skills, and confidence; Real Fathers Charity, supporting single fathers with education, entrepreneurship training, and job readiness programs to promote family stability and reduce poverty; and Rise & Dream Foundation, serving at-risk children and families through education, health, and wellness initiatives that restore hope and opportunity.
During her hiatus, Dr. Adams-Miller focused on research and strategic development within the Wealth and Legacy Alliance, an initiative uniting entrepreneurs, athletes, and executives who value purposeful growth and measurable impact. Her return marks a continuation of her work with the subconscious, studying how the brain processes influence, stress, and leadership decisions under pressure.
Dr. Adams-Miller’s research on the neuroscience of influence and decision-making directly aligns with the symposium’s mission to equip business leaders with tools for sustainable growth and social responsibility. Her work illustrates how cognitive science and communication strategy can be applied to philanthropy, entrepreneurship, and community building—the same principles driving the We Fight for Life campaign and its partner charities.
“Time away allowed for impact reflection and deeper study,” Dr. Adams-Miller said. “I’m returning to share insights on how leaders can rebuild clarity, confidence, and communication in changing times.”
Her presentations integrate neuroscience, influence psychology, and communication strategy, offering practical frameworks for executives and entrepreneurs. The focus is on applying evidence-based methods—rather than motivation alone—to improve leadership performance, focus, and emotional regulation.
The Mesa-based symposium will feature networking sessions, educational panels, and live entertainment, creating opportunities for collaboration among professionals, athletes, and philanthropists committed to social impact. Attendees can expect to gain research-informed tools to strengthen their leadership mindset and communication effectiveness.
“Speaking again is less about performance and more about contribution,” Dr. Andrea Adams-Miller added. “This next chapter is about using science and service to help others lead with impact, purpose, and resilience.”
Future speaking engagements for Dr. Adams-Miller will continue exploring topics such as neuro-leadership, strategic influence, and evidence-based communication frameworks for high-performance leadership.

Felipe’s Taqueria, a restaurant known for its scratch-made Mexican cuisine and community-centered approach, is celebrating ten years of serving guests in Naples with a special Tacoversary Fiesta. The event, set for Friday, October 24, will take place at both of the brand’s Naples locations and will feature music, food specials, and festivities designed to express gratitude for the support and relationships formed over the past decade.
Since opening its first Naples outpost in 2015, Felipe’s Taqueria has become a local favorite, recognized for its authentic menu and welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant entered the Naples dining scene with a commitment to bringing genuine Mexican flavors to the area. That mission resonated with residents and visitors alike, helping the restaurant grow into a gathering place for families, friends, and neighbors. Over time, Felipe’s Taqueria has become part of the community’s rhythm: a stop after a beach day, a destination for happy hour, and a place for shared meals and memories.
Over the years, Felipe’s has also become a bridge between cultures, introducing traditional Mexican flavors to new audiences while celebrating local diversity. The menu, which features recipes inspired by family traditions and regional Mexican cooking, has evolved to reflect both authenticity and inclusivity. Seasonal dishes, local sourcing, and rotating specials have helped the restaurant remain fresh and relevant within Naples’ growing food scene.
The Tacoversary Fiesta is designed as a celebration of these shared traditions and community bonds. Felipe’s Taqueria has created an event that reflects both the diversity and the loyalty of its clientele. Attendees this year can expect $10 lunch specials from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., with options including super burritos, quesadillas, bowls, platos, and three-taco plates.
Happy hour follows from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m., featuring Felipe’s signature margaritas and additional drink specials. The evening will feature live performances by The Nestor Loreal Band and David Riveron from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m., along with community giveaways and festive activities.
Felipe’s Taqueria credits much of its success to its dedicated and consistent team. From the earliest days, the staff has emphasized care, pride, and hospitality in every menu item served, from burritos to margaritas. Many team members remain from the restaurant’s early days, helping to shape its enduring culture. Among them is Jairo Navarro, who relocated from New Orleans to oversee the Naples expansion and now serves as Multi-Unit Manager for both locations. Navarro’s leadership earned national recognition in 2019, when El Restaurante Magazine named him Manager of the Year.
“Jairo is the kind of leader who never asks for recognition—he earns it every single day,” said co-owner Pike Howard. “His dedication has played a vital role in our growth and the positive culture we’ve built in Naples.”
Throughout its ten years in the community, Felipe’s Taqueria has faced challenges together with its guests and neighbors. The team has navigated hurricanes, power outages, and storms, capitalizing on its spirit of resilience and support.
Following Hurricane Irma, for example, the team provided meals to those affected, continuing to support the community during difficult times. These efforts have strengthened the restaurant’s relationship with Naples residents and contributed to its loyal customer base.
As Felipe’s Taqueria celebrates this ten-year milestone, the team extends gratitude to everyone who made the decade possible. The management acknowledges the efforts of the staff, the loyalty of the guests, and the hospitality of the Naples community. While the Tacoversary event is a celebration of the restaurant’s history, it is also a forward-looking toast to future milestones and to sustaining relationships and traditions in the years to come.

Ginza Diamond Shiraishi Hong Kong announces the continuation of its longstanding dedication to precision, artistry, and design in the creation of 結婚戒指 (wedding rings). With a heritage deeply rooted in fine jewelry craftsmanship, the brand’s Hong Kong presence reflects an enduring commitment to providing couples with rings that embody both aesthetic refinement and symbolic significance.
Ginza Diamond Shiraishi has consistently emphasized the connection between timeless design and the personal meaning of marriage. Each wedding ring is designed with careful attention to balance, comfort, and durability—ensuring that the piece represents not only the beauty of craftsmanship but also the enduring bond it symbolizes.
At the core of Ginza Diamond Shiraishi’s design philosophy is the concept of harmony. The company’s designers and craftsmen focus on achieving a precise equilibrium between form and function, resulting in wedding rings that combine graceful contours with practical wearability. This balance allows each ring to serve as both a daily adornment and a lifelong keepsake. The attention to fine detail—from diamond setting to band curvature—is integral to the overall experience of wearing the ring.
Ginza Diamond Shiraishi’s diamond selection process reflects stringent quality standards. Each diamond undergoes an evaluation based on the internationally recognized “Four Cs”—cut, color, clarity, and carat weight. These standards ensure that every diamond used in a Ginza Diamond Shiraishi wedding ring meets the expectations of excellence and consistency. The brand also places importance on transparency and traceability, reflecting the broader jewelry industry’s growing attention to ethical sourcing and consumer trust.
Ginza Diamond Shiraishi Hong Kong has aligned its operations with this global standard, emphasizing craftsmanship rooted in responsible practices. The company maintains close relationships with trusted suppliers and certified gemological partners, ensuring that materials used in its wedding rings are sourced with care and integrity. This approach not only guarantees quality but also supports the long-term sustainability of fine jewelry production.
Technological precision also plays a significant role in the creation of Ginza Diamond Shiraishi wedding rings. Modern tools such as high-accuracy casting systems, digital modeling, and microscopic diamond setting ensure that each ring achieves exacting standards of finish and structure. These technologies, combined with human craftsmanship, produce a seamless result—one where artistry and innovation coexist. The goal is to achieve perfection not only in visual form but in how the ring feels when worn.
In Hong Kong, where traditions blend with contemporary lifestyle influences, the symbolism of the wedding ring (結婚戒指) continues to hold deep cultural resonance. Ginza Diamond Shiraishi recognizes this duality and designs its rings to suit diverse expectations—some couples value understated elegance, while others prefer designs that reflect individuality or family heritage. The brand’s artisans work to accommodate both, creating wedding rings that are versatile in design yet consistent in quality.
Another hallmark of Ginza Diamond Shiraishi’s approach is its emphasis on personal consultation. The process of selecting a wedding ring often includes detailed discussions about design options, ring fit, and diamond selection. Each element is explained in detail to ensure that the couple understands the craftsmanship and materials involved. This transparent and educational approach has contributed to the brand’s longstanding reputation for reliability within the bridal jewelry sector.
Cultural symbolism remains an integral part of the design process. Many of the brand’s wedding ring collections feature motifs inspired by nature, balance, and the cyclical nature of time. Rings are crafted with smooth inner surfaces for comfort, while outer details—such as gentle curves, engravings, or subtle diamond placements—express the continuity of love and commitment. The interplay between simplicity and sophistication defines much of Ginza Diamond Shiraishi’s work, appealing to those who value quiet elegance over excess ornamentation.
The company’s continued investment in craftsmanship training ensures that skills are passed on to new generations of artisans. Precision techniques, such as hand-polishing and setting, are still central to production even as the brand incorporates digital design tools. This combination of tradition and technology underscores Ginza Diamond Shiraishi’s philosophy that true craftsmanship evolves without losing its foundational artistry.
In Hong Kong’s dynamic bridal jewelry market, Ginza Diamond Shiraishi serves as a representative of craftsmanship that values authenticity and care. While design trends may evolve, the brand’s commitment to its guiding principles—refinement, precision, and emotional connection—remains unchanged. Its approach reflects an understanding that a wedding ring is not merely a decorative accessory but a meaningful artifact that records one of life’s most important commitments.
By emphasizing integrity in sourcing, meticulous craftsmanship, and timeless design, Ginza Diamond Shiraishi continues to contribute to the global standard for wedding rings (結婚戒指). The Hong Kong boutique’s operations mirror the brand’s heritage of combining artistry with quality assurance, ensuring that each piece upholds both technical excellence and emotional value.
This continued dedication to fine jewelry craftsmanship reinforces Ginza Diamond Shiraishi’s place among the leading names in bridal jewelry. The wedding ring, as interpreted through the brand’s design ethos, stands as a testament to enduring craftsmanship—a tradition that celebrates not only the artistry of creation but the promise it represents between two people.

KTM Exteriors & Roofing, a family-owned exterior services company serving the Greater Boston area for over 40 years, is reminding property owners about the critical importance of winter roof inspections as New England experiences increasingly unpredictable weather patterns this season.
With recent temperature fluctuations causing repeated freeze-thaw cycles throughout the Boston metropolitan area, roofs face heightened stress that can lead to damage if left unaddressed. The company reports seeing increased demand for inspection services as property owners recognize the value of preventative maintenance during challenging weather conditions.
“Winter weather in New England presents unique challenges for both residential and commercial roofing systems,” said a representative of KTM. “Ice dams, snow accumulation, and rapid temperature changes can all contribute to roof deterioration. Regular inspections help identify potential issues before they become costly repairs, especially given the architectural diversity and varying building codes across Boston’s neighborhoods.”
The company’s inspection services cover comprehensive evaluations of roofing materials, flashing, gutters, and other exterior components that work together to protect properties from the elements. Their team examines shingle integrity, checks for proper ventilation, and assesses areas prone to ice dam formation, providing detailed reports to property owners.
As a roofing contractor Boston residents have relied on for four decades, the company brings extensive experience with various roofing materials, including asphalt, rubber, and specialty shingle designs. This expertise proves particularly valuable when evaluating how different materials respond to New England’s harsh winter conditions.
The importance of professional inspections extends beyond immediate damage prevention. Regular maintenance can significantly extend roof lifespan, improve energy efficiency, and maintain property values. For commercial properties, proper roof maintenance also ensures compliance with local building codes and insurance requirements.
“Property owners often underestimate how much damage can occur during winter months,” the representative continued. “Small issues like loose shingles or minor flashing gaps can quickly escalate when exposed to snow, ice, and freezing temperatures. Our inspection services help identify these vulnerabilities early, allowing for timely repairs that prevent more extensive damage.”
The company’s approach to winter inspections includes thorough documentation of current roof conditions, identification of potential problem areas, and recommendations for necessary repairs or maintenance. Their team also provides guidance on preventative measures property owners can take to minimize winter-related roof stress.
KTM Exteriors & Roofing is a full-service exterior contractor specializing in roofing, siding, windows, and related services for residential and commercial properties throughout the Greater Boston area. The woman-owned business maintains full licensing and insurance while offering comprehensive warranties on workmanship and materials. Their services encompass installation, replacement, repair, and maintenance of roofing systems, along with additional exterior services including window installation, siding, and gutter cleaning. The company has built its reputation on quality craftsmanship, transparent communication, and deep knowledge of local architectural styles and building requirements.

SAN BERNARDINO, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / October 27, 2025 / Dateline Resources Limited (ASX:DTR)(OTCQB:DTREF)(FSE:YE1) (Dateline or the Company) is pleased to provide an update on the drilling activities underway at its 100%-owned Colosseum Gold-REE Project in California, USA.
Three drill rigs are currently operating on site, one diamond rig and two reverse circulation (RC) rigs and until recently, the program was supported by an additional sonic rig that has now completed its tailings stability work and has been demobilised.
The current drilling phase is focused on compact infill, extensional, geotechnical, and tailings stability holes as part of the Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS). The broader program will shortly transition to testing several newly defined, high-priority gold and rare earth targets identified from recent geophysical and geochemical work across the Colosseum system.
Highlights
BFS Drilling: The compact BFS drill program of 32 holes for 4,257 metres (13,968 feet) is 67% complete with an estimated end date of November 7, 2025.
Stockpile Drilling: Approximately 1Mt of historical stockpiles grading ~1 g/t Au will be RC drilled to confirm grade continuity and support inclusion in the mine plan, potentially adding already mined ~30,000oz of gold to the feasibility inventory.
Tailings Stability Drilling: A sonic drilling program over the existing tailings storage facility was completed, confirming the foundation is stable and suitable for additional lifts as part of the planned development.
Exploration Targets: The major phase of the drilling campaign will focus on newly defined gold and rare earth targets, with both programs to be drilled concurrently. Drilling will begin on the high-priority gold breccia pipe targets (Targets 1, 5 and 6) alongside the 2200N REE target, the first of three defined anomalies to be tested.
Dateline’s Managing Director, Stephen Baghdadi, commented:“Having multiple rigs on site has allowed us to accelerate the program so we can focus our efforts sooner on the new gold and rare earth targets. With over 1,400 samples already at the lab, we look forward to reporting the results as they become available and are analysed.
“Our geology team is eager to commence drilling the new gold and REE targets in early November.”
BFS Drill Program Status
Infill and Extensional Program
The Scoping Study outlined 16.6 Mt of ore, with 81% classified as Measured and Indicated and the remaining 19% as Inferred. The current drill program is designed to infill these Inferred areas and support upgrades to Indicated or Measured categories, providing greater confidence in mine scheduling and production planning.
The infill component comprises 32 holes for 4,257 metres (13,968 feet) and is now 67% complete. Samples from the completed holes have been dispatched to ALS Reno for analysis.
Figure 1: RC rig infill drilling the North Pipe at Colosseum
Stockpile Drilling
When Dateline acquired the Colosseum Project in 2021, it inherited an existing ore stockpile left on site following the suspension of operations in 1993. Historical mine records indicate the stockpile contains approximately 1Mt grading 1.0 g/t Au for an estimated 30,000 ounces of gold.
To date, Dateline’s work has focused on expanding the in-situ Mineral Resource, and the stockpile has not yet been drilled or included in the current mine plan. The Company now intends to complete reverse-circulation (RC) drilling to confirm the tonnes and grade of this material, enabling it to be incorporated into the development schedule.
This mined stockpile has the potential to be processed during the commissioning phase of the operation, providing an early source of mill feed, accelerating gold production, and enhancing overall project economics.
Figure 2: Stockpiles to be assessed with RC drilling
Tailings Stability Drilling
Dateline plans to reutilise the existing tailings storage facility (TSF) at Colosseum as part of the proposed mine development. The design involves filter pressing the tailings prior to deposition, allowing the material to be stacked dry on top of the existing facility. This approach enables water recirculation, significantly reducing overall water consumption and supporting construction of additional TSF lifts.
To confirm the suitability of this approach, a program of sonic drilling was completed across the TSF site. The recovered core was reviewed by the Company’s hydrogeological consultants, who have provided their findings to the BFS team. Results confirmed the foundation stability and suitability of the existing TSF for future use as a dry-stack tailings and waste rock facility.

Figure 4: Existing TSF area drilled with sonic drilling
New Target Drilling
The BFS drilling programs were prioritised for completion ahead of the new target testing, as they form part of the critical path for the Colosseum development timeline. With these programs now nearing completion, the focus is shifting to the next phase of drilling-testing the newly defined gold and rare earth element (REE) targets.
Dateline has ranked several high-priority targets for initial assessment, with Gold Targets 1, 5 and 6 and REE Target 2200N to be drilled first as part of the expanded exploration campaign.

Based on results from the Phase 2b ANTHEM-UC study, Johnson & Johnson has initiated the ICONIC-UC Phase 3 protocol in adults and adolescents with moderately to severely active UC, as well as the ICONIC-CD Phase 2b/3 protocol in adults with moderate to severely active Crohn’s disease.
Additionally, new long-term 52-week data from the Phase 3 ICONIC-TOTAL study e , presented last week at the 2025 Fall Clinical Dermatology Conference, show icotrokinra demonstrated high and durable rates of site-specific psoriasis clearance affecting these high-impact and difficult-to-treat areas of the body. [2]
72% of patients with scalp psoriasis achieved a scalp-specific Investigator’s Global Assessment (ss-IGA) 0/1 score and 57% achieved ss-IGA 0 f
85% of patients with genital psoriasis achieved a Physician’s Global Assessment of Genitalia (sPGA-G) 0/1 and 73% achieved sPGA-G 0 g
In the smaller subset of patients with hand/foot psoriasis, treatment with icotrokinra showed a numerically higher rate of skin clearance at Week 16, which increased through Week 52 with patients achieving a hand and/or foot Physician’s Global Assessment (hf-PGA) h score of 0/1 increasing from 42% to 62%.
Overall response rates among patients treated with once-daily icotrokinra were maintained through Week 52, with 67% of patients treated with icotrokinra achieving clear or almost clear skin (Investigator’s Global Assessment (IGA) i 0/1) and 44% achieving completely clear skin (IGA 0) at Week 52. The overall response rates were also comparable among patients who received icotrokinra for all 52 weeks and those who transitioned from placebo to icotrokinra at Week 16 (67% versus 68% achieved IGA0/1, respectively). Across treatment groups, adverse event and serious adverse event rates were similar through Week 52 compared to those through Week 16, with no new safety signals identified.
“Additional data from Phase 2b ANTHEM-UC and Phase 3 ICONIC-TOTAL studies continue to show a strong durability of response and clinical benefit of icotrokinra treatment in a range of inflammatory and immunological diseases,” said Dinesh V. Patel, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer at Protagonist. “We are very pleased to see that the ICONIC development program now includes both ICONIC-UC, a Phase 3 study in adults with moderately to severely active UC, and ICONIC-CD, a Phase 2b/3 study in adults with moderate to severely active Crohn’s disease. Our goal continues to be delivering well-differentiated oral targeted therapy treatments for patients as we continue to advance our oral peptides-based scientific and innovation leadership in the I&I field.”
Editor’s notes:
Clinical response was defined as a decrease from baseline in the modified Mayo score by greater than or equal to (>=) 30 percent (%) and >=2 points, with either a >=1-point decrease from baseline in the rectal bleeding subscore or a rectal bleeding subscore of 0 or 1.
Clinical remission was defined as a stool frequency subscore of 0 or 1, a rectal bleeding subscore of 0, and an endoscopy subscore of 0 or 1.
Endoscopic improvement was defined as an endoscopy subscore of 0 or 1.
Histologic-endoscopic mucosal improvement (HEMI) was defined as histologic remission (absence of neutrophils from the mucosa in both lamina propria and epithelium, no crypt destruction, and no erosions, ulcerations, or granulation tissue according to the Geboes grading system) and endoscopic improvement (MES of 0 or 1).
ICONIC-TOTAL evaluates the efficacy and safety of icotrokinra compared with placebo in participants with at least moderate scalp, genital, and/or hand/foot PsO with once-daily icotrokinra or placebo, with placebo-to-icotrokinra transition at Week 16.
The ss-IGA is a five-point scale where scalp lesions are assessed in terms of clinical signs of redness, thickness, and scaliness on a severity score ranging from 0 to 4, where 0 indicates absence of disease, 1 is very mild, 2 is mild, 3 is moderate and 4 indicates severe disease.
The sPGA-G is a six-point scale used to evaluate the severity of genital psoriasis at a given time point ranging from 0 to 5, where 0 indicates clear, 1 is minimal, 2 is mild, 3 is moderate, 4 is severe and 5 indicates very severe disease. [3]
The Physician’s Global Assessment of Psoriasis on the Hands and/or Feet (hf-PGA) assesses the severity of hand and foot psoriasis using a 5-point scale to score the plaques on the hands and feet as: clear (0), almost clear (1), mild (2), moderate (3) and severe (4). [4]
The IGA is a five-point scale with a severity score ranging from 0 to 4, where 0 indicates clear, 1 is minimal, 2 is mild, 3 is moderate, and 4 indicates severe disease. [5]
About ANTHEM-UC
ANTHEM-UC ( NCT06049017 ) is a Phase 2b multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of icotrokinra (JNJ-77242113, JNJ-2113) in patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who had an inadequate response or intolerance to conventional therapy (e.g., thiopurines or corticosteroids), prior biologics (TNF antagonists or vedolizumab) and/or ozanimod or approved JAK inhibitors. The study is evaluating three once-daily dosages of icotrokinra taken orally. Participants who complete the Week 28 assessments and have achieved clinical response at Week 28 and who, in the opinion of the investigator, will continue to benefit from treatment with study intervention will continue in the 48-week long term extension (LTE) period and receive the same treatment up to Week 76.
About Ulcerative Colitis Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic disease of the large intestine, also known as the colon, in which the lining of the colon becomes inflamed and develops tiny open sores, or ulcers, that produce pus and mucus. It is the result of the immune system’s overactive response.Symptoms vary but may typically include loose and more urgent bowel movements, rectal bleeding or bloody stool, persistent diarrhea, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, weight loss, and fatigue.
About the ICONIC Clinical Development Program The pivotal Phase 3 ICONIC clinical development program of icotrokinra (JNJ-2113) in adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with moderate-to-severe plaque PsO was initiated with two studies in Q4 2023 – ICONIC-LEAD and ICONIC-TOTAL – pursuant to the license and collaboration agreement between Protagonist Therapeutics, Inc. and Janssen Biotech, Inc., a Johnson & Johnson company.
ICONIC-LEAD ( NCT06095115 ) is a RCT to evaluate the efficacy and safety of icotrokinra compared with placebo in participants with moderate-to-severe plaque PsO, with PASI 90 and IGA score of 0 or 1 with at least a 2-grade improvement as co-primary endpoints.
ICONIC-TOTAL ( NCT06095102 ) is a RCT to evaluate the efficacy and safety of icotrokinra compared with placebo for the treatment of PsO in participants with at least moderate severity affecting special areas (e.g., scalp, genital, and/or hands and feet) with overall IGA score of 0 or 1 with at least a 2-grade improvement as the primary endpoint.
Other Phase 3 studies in the development program include ICONIC-ADVANCE 1 ( NCT06143878 ) and ICONIC-ADVANCE 2 ( NCT06220604 ), which are evaluating the efficacy and safety of icotrokinra compared with both placebo and deucravacitinib in adults with moderate-to-severe plaque PsO. ICONIC-ASCEND will evaluate the efficacy and safety of icotrokinra compared with placebo and ustekinumab in participants with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. ICONIC-PsA 1 ( NCT06878404 ) and ICONIC-PsA 2 ( NCT06807424 ) will evaluate the efficacy and safety of icotrokinra compared to placebo in participants with active psoriatic arthritis.
Johnson & Johnson has also initiated the ICONIC-UC Phase 3 protocol in adults and adolescents with moderately to severely active UC as well as the ICONIC-CD Phase 2b/3 protocol in adults with moderate to severely active Crohn’s disease.
About Plaque Psoriasis Plaque psoriasis (PsO) is a chronic immune-mediated disease resulting in overproduction of skin cells, which causes inflamed, scaly plaques that may be itchy or painful. It is estimated that 8 million Americans and more than 125 million people worldwide live with the disease. Nearly one-quarter of all people with plaque PsO have cases that are considered moderate-to-severe.Plaques typically appear as raised patches with a silvery white buildup of dead skin cells or scales.Plaques may appear red in lighter skin or more of a purple, gray or dark brown color in patients with darker skin tones. Plaques can appear anywhere on the body, although they most often appear on the scalp, knees, elbows, and torso.Living with plaque PsO can be a challenge and impact life beyond a person’s physical health, including emotional health, relationships, and handling the stressors of life. Psoriasis on highly visible areas of the body or sensitive skin, such as the scalp, hands, feet, and genitals, can have an increased negative impact on quality of life.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / October 27, 2025 / Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX:ASM)(NYSE American:ASM)(FSE:GV6) (“Avino” or “the Company”) reports results of four additional drill holes from La Preciosa which were drilled to twin previous drilling. Assay results for the intercepts of the La Gloria and Abundancia veins continued to be very positive and are shown in Table 1. Previous drill results can be found here .
Selected Intercept Highlights:
Hole PMLP 25-06: 787 g/t Ag and 0.51 g/t Au over 5.22 metres true width
including 3,206 g/t Ag and 1.02 g/t Au over 0.77 metres true width
Hole PMLP 25-08 at Gloria: 306 g/t Ag and 1.15 g/t Au over 3.98 metres true width
including 699 g/t Ag and 5.80 g/t Au over 0.63 metres true width
Hole PMLP 25-08 at Abundancia: 463 g/t Ag and 0.61 g/t Au over 4.00 metres true width
including 642 g/t Ag and 0.60 g/t Au over 0.95 metres true width
Based on previous drill results, the variation of grades and thicknesses within relatively short distances (under 10 metres) compared with previously drilled intercepts were expected due to the “pinch and swell” geometry of the La Preciosa veins and the high nugget effects. The drill results exceeded grade expectations and verified the geometry of the current vein-based resource model.
“We’re excited to share continued strong results from four new drill holes at La Preciosa, each returning excellent grades that exceed the current resource average. These results reinforce the strategy of using underground mining methods to unlock the value of the deposit” said David Wolfin, President and CEO. “Notably, the wider intercepts at La Gloria and Abundancia highlight the deposit’s potential, especially early in the mine life. We’ll continue to refine our geological model, expand drilling into underexplored areas, and integrate ongoing channel sampling data as development advances on both veins, in both direction at level 3.”
Drilling Results
Assays were received on four holes totalling 915 metres drilled at La Preciosa, intersecting the La Gloria vein in all four holes, the Abundancia vein in three holes, and additional unnamed and splay veins in one of the holes. Assays were processed under Avino’s standard QA/QC program, with no indications of bias or contamination detected. Unlike the Avino Mine, the La Preciosa deposit contains no notable copper mineralization, so no copper values are reported.

Geological Description
La Preciosa deposit is situated on the eastern flank of the Cretaceous to mid-Tertiary Sierra Madre Occidental. The SMO is the largest silicic igneous province in North America, and it stretches from the USA-Mexico border to the latitude of Guadalajara, where the SMO is covered by the late Miocene to Quaternary Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt.
Mineralization at the La Preciosa is hosted within multiple discrete poly-phase quartz veins, often displaying banded, smoky, drusy, and chalcedonic textures. Also, in each stage, there is variably crustiform banded fracture fill/breccia cement mineralogy. Fluorite, amethyst, a substantial number of barite laths, calcite, and rhodochrosite may also be present, and sulphide mineralization in the form of sphalerite, galena, pyrite, chalcopyrite, acanthite, sparse native silver, and free gold, as well as iron and manganese oxides have been noted in drill core. The principal silver-bearing mineral at the La Preciosa is acanthite-pseudomorphic after argentite or as microcrystalline to amorphous grains.
The main vein system on the Abundancia ridge consists of dominantly north-south-striking and westward-dipping veins plus east-southeast-striking, south-dipping crosscutting veins. The Abundancia vein system has been traced on the surface for over 1.5 km. In the eastern part of the Project, a north- to northwest-striking, shallow west-dipping vein system with associated hanging wall veining and alteration is exposed in a series of hills. This vein system is referred to as the Martha vein and has been traced by drilling for over 2.5 km along the strike.
The mineralization in the area occurs in veins, veinlets, and stockwork. These veins average in true width less than 15 m (Martha Vein) and consist of several stages of banded crustiform to colloform, quartz (and cryptocrystalline quartz at shallow depths), adularia, barite, and typically later carbonates (both calcite and rhodochrosite); illite commonly replaces the adularia. There are variable amounts of pyrite, sphalerite, and galena plus argentite, and variable amounts of tetrahedrite – tennantite, freibergite, and Ag sulfosalt.
There are steep-dipping veins in the west, such as the La Gloria vein. These steep veins can be considered as a mineralized zone or lode of stock work, silicification, breccias, veins, vein breccias, veinlets, and a general mix of multiple styles of mineralization.
The mineralization displays characteristics typical of epithermal veins in Mexico, particularly of the Ag-rich variety. Quartz veins are accompanied by adularia, barite, calcite, and rhodochrosite of variable timing, as well as acanthite, freibergite, Ag sulfosalts and minor electrum, plus variable amounts of pyrite, honey-coloured sphalerite, tennantite/tetrahedrite, chalcopyrite and galena, and supergene Fe and Mn oxides; the hypogene minerals are characteristic of intermediate-sulphidation deposits in Mexico. Mineralization is believed to be Tertiary in age, and both the Lower Volcanic Supergroup (LVS) and Upper Volcanic Supergroup (UVS) are mineralized, but the overlying basalts are recent and not mineralized.
Sampling and Assay Methods
Following detailed geological and geotechnical logging, selected drill core areas were cut in half. One half of the core was submitted to the SGS Laboratory facility in Durango, Mexico, and the other half was retained on-site for verification and reference. Gold is assayed by fire assay with an AA finish. Any samples exceeding 3.0 gold g/t are re-assayed and followed by a gravimetric finish. Multi-element analyses are also completed for each sample by SGS ICP14B methods. Silver is fire assayed with a gravimetric finish for samples assaying over 100 g/t. Avino uses a series of standard reference materials, blank reference materials, and duplicates as part of their QA/QC program during assaying.

Cautionary note to U.S. Investors concerning estimates of Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources
All reserve and resource estimates reported by Avino were estimated in accordance with the Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) Definition Standards. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) now recognizes estimates of “measured mineral resources,” “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” and uses new definitions of “proven mineral reserves” and “probable mineral reserves” that are substantially similar to the corresponding CIM Definition Standards. However, the CIM Definition Standards differ from the requirements applicable to US domestic issuers. US investors are cautioned not to assume that any “measured mineral resources,” “indicated mineral resources,” or “inferred mineral resources” that the Issuer reports are or will be economically or legally mineable. Further, “inferred mineral resources” are that part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade are estimated on the basis of limited geologic evidence and sampling. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
Neither TSX nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
