Mortgage brokerage licensed in 16 states recognized for its people-first Culture of Admiration and commitment to integrity and leadership.

BOONE, NC, UNITED STATES, January 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Lendmire, LLC, a national mortgage brokerage licensed in 16 states, has been recognized as a 2026 Top Workplace by Scotsman Guide, a leading publication in the mortgage industry. The distinction highlights Lendmire’s commitment to building a people-first organization rooted in integrity, leadership, and long-term sustainability.

Founded by mortgage industry veteran Brandon A. Miller, Lendmire was built with a clear mission: to grow without sacrificing culture. That philosophy became the foundation of what the company calls its Culture of Admiration—an internal standard focused on respect, support, accountability, and genuine appreciation for the people behind the work.

“This recognition reinforces something we’ve believed from day one,” said Brandon A. Miller, Founder and CEO of Lendmire. “When you prioritize people, operate with integrity, and create real structure and support, strong performance follows. That approach is a major reason we’ve continued to grow rapidly—even in a challenging rate environment.”

The Scotsman Guide Top Workplace designation reflects feedback from team members and evaluates factors such as leadership, communication, support systems, and overall workplace satisfaction. For Lendmire, the recognition is less about the award itself and more about the people who make the company what it is.

“Our loan officers show up every day to guide clients through major life decisions,” Miller added. “Our operations and support teams handle the hard work behind the scenes that allows everything to run smoothly. This recognition belongs to them.”

Lendmire works with leading wholesale lenders nationwide and offers a broad range of mortgage solutions, including conventional, FHA, VA, jumbo, non-QM, DSCR, bank statement loans, HELOCs, and more. As the company continues to expand nationally, leadership remains focused on scaling responsibly while preserving the culture that defines the organization.

“This is not about chasing growth for growth’s sake,” said Miller. “Legacy is built by admiring the people who make it possible. That’s who we are, and that’s how we plan to keep building.”

A cinematic and sensorial new book unfolds like a live performance, an ode to Southern roots, sacred sensuality, and a woman returning to herself.

NEW YORK CITY, NY, UNITED STATES, January 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Poet and creative visionary Christina Victoria announces the release of The Peach Symphony, a richly layered poetry collection that blends memory, music, and movement into an intimate and immersive literary experience. Written as a poetic soundtrack in five distinct movements, the book invites readers into a world where ancestry, desire, softness, and survival coexist in harmony.

The Peach Symphony is structured like a live performance, guiding readers through a sequence of emotional movements that mirror the arc of becoming. Each poem unfolds as a cinematic scene, lush with imagery, rhythmic in cadence, and grounded in the sensory textures of Southern lineage. Christina Victoria composes a language of return, tracing how identity, womanhood, and inheritance live in the body and on the page.

The collection explores themes of sacred softness and quiet power, honoring the women who carry light through generations and the ancestors whose stories pulse beneath the surface. Through carefully crafted verse, the poems speak to love in its many forms, the ache of endurance, and the glow that emerges when a woman begins to reclaim herself fully. The work is both intimate and expansive, holding personal memory alongside collective inheritance.
Christina Victoria’s inspiration for The Peach Symphony lies in treating poetry as both sound and movement, something to be felt as much as read. The poems are composed with musical intention, allowing rhythm and emotion to guide the reader through moments of reflection, longing, and reverence. The result is a collection that feels lived-in and embodied, inviting readers to slow down and listen closely.

Written for lovers of soft power, sacred sensuality, Southern storytelling, and poetry that reads like a film, The Peach Symphony offers an experience rather than a lesson. It resists categorization, existing at the intersection of art, memory, and devotion. The book honors femininity not as performance, but as presence, rooted, radiant, and self-defined.

More than a poetry collection, The Peach Symphony is a journey and a performance, celebrating the music that emerges when personal history, ancestral voice, and creative expression move together. Christina Victoria reminds readers that poetry can be both sanctuary and stage, and that becoming is a process worthy of sound, color, and bloom.

AI can enhance this culture by moving from reactive to proactive strategies. AI allows for real-time monitoring and predictive analysis to detect contamination.

LUNENBURG, NOVA SCOTIA, CANADA, January 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — In a time when consumers expect food to be both tasty and safe, eHACCP.org emphasizes how artificial intelligence can transform Food Safety Culture, which is essential to the global food industry.

Food Safety Culture includes the shared values, beliefs, and day-to-day actions adopted by organizations and professionals in the food sector. It focuses on:

– Preventing foodborne illnesses before they happen
– Ensuring consistent, thorough compliance with regulations
– Maintaining high standards of hygiene, quality, and traceability

While a strong food safety culture has traditionally depended on food safety training (HACCP training), management commitment, and human oversight (personnel responsibility), artificial intelligence (AI) is quickly becoming a very strong partner this shared effort. AI may be the biggest change the food safety culture has ever seen.

AI is set to change food safety culture by providing real-time information, predictive abilities, and visibility that human teams can’t achieve alone on a large scale. It can identify tiny dangers that are invisible to the naked eye, analyze trends across millions of data points from production, and tailor training for each team member. AI doesn’t replace food safety culture; it strengthens and embeds it deeper into every part of an organization.

“Food safety culture has always been about people caring enough to do things right, every single time,” said Stephen Sockett, eHACCP.org’s food-safety futurist who has a good sense of humor. “Now imagine giving those caring people a tireless, super-smart teammate that never sleeps, never forgets, and can spot issues before breakfast is even served. That’s not science fiction; it’s the near future we’re creating.”

As food supply chains become more complex and consumer expectations rise, Sockett believes AI tools will be as vital to today’s food safety culture as handwashing and temperature checks.

The future of safe, reliable food combines human effort with smart technology.

AI can enhance this culture by moving from reactive to proactive strategies. For example, AI allows for real-time monitoring and predictive analysis to detect contamination risks early, encouraging a prevention mindset. It automates tasks like analyzing microbial data for root cause investigations and interpreting regulatory updates, making processes simpler and helping teams focus on finding insights instead of doing manual work. This approach reduces human error by using tools like computer vision for detecting pathogens and identifying anomalies, allowing smaller teams to manage safety measures effectively and fostering a culture of precision and responsibility. Additionally, AI aids training and improves behaviors through methods like vision AI that reinforce best practices, helping to build consumer trust and lower the chances of contamination. Overall, by making sense of unstructured data and encouraging exploration, AI promotes curiosity and trust in human-AI collaborations, resulting in better decisions and lasting safety measures.

How AI Could Hurt Food Safety Culture

Despite its promises, AI might harm food safety culture if not handled carefully:

Poor quality data can lead AI to misjudge risks, causing wrong decisions that undermine trust in technology and complicate professionals’ duties.

High costs and access issues could leave small operations behind, keeping manual processes in place and creating divides that obstruct a forward-thinking industry culture.

Regulatory challenges and the necessity for human oversight might slow down adoption, keeping practices experimental rather than established, and creating doubt.

Food safety experts often aren’t well-versed in AI, making it tough to validate results, while AI’s risk of producing false data (like hallucinations) could mislead teams and cause public health issues, shifting blame and weakening accountability.

Privacy issues and low confidence among stakeholders might slow integration and maintain traditional practices over newer ones, possibly misusing AI for efficiency at the cost of thorough safety.

Without clear regulations and government support for data integration, these challenges could delay broad benefits and weaken overall commitment to safety.

However, AI will not replace proper HACCP training soon and well-trained people remain essential. In fact, the overwhelming consensus from food safety experts, regulators, and industry leaders is that AI is a powerful co-pilot, not a replacement for human expertise, judgment, and behavior. Here’s why having properly HACCP-trained people is still critically important and how AI makes trained teams even more effective.

eHACCP.org: The Trusted Global Leader in Online HACCP Training and Certification. Since 2007 eHACCP.org has trained tens of thousands of food safety professionals worldwide, helping organizations meet regulatory and third-party audit requirements with confidence and credibility.

An unsettling psychological suspense novel exposes the devastating consequences of missed diagnoses, manipulation, and silence.

NEW YORK CITY, NY, UNITED STATES, January 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Author Billie Longo delivers a gripping and unsettling psychological suspense novel with Charmingly Undiagnosed, a work based on true events that examines the dangerous fallout of untreated psychological disorders and the emotional toll they exact on families. With a tense, character-driven narrative, the book challenges readers to confront how charm, denial, and misjudgment can mask deeply destructive behavior.

At the center of the story is Riley Venturi, a young woman struggling to understand what is happening to her brother, Dillon, and why no one else seems willing—or able—to see the truth. As Dillon spirals through a life marked by drugs, deception, reckless behavior, and escalating violence, Riley becomes increasingly isolated in her attempts to hold him accountable. Her parents’ refusal to acknowledge the severity of his actions leaves her questioning not only her brother’s sanity, but the family system protecting him.

Dillon is portrayed as disturbingly untouchable. His ability to charm, manipulate, and evade consequences allows him to move through life unchecked, even as his behavior crosses irreversible lines. Longo’s narrative explores how psychological disorders that go undiagnosed—or are willfully overlooked—can become weapons in the hands of those who know how to perform normalcy. The novel’s tension builds as Riley realizes that she may be the only one capable of seeing through Dillon’s carefully constructed façade.

What sets Charmingly Undiagnosed apart is its focus on the systems surrounding mental illness rather than sensationalizing violence itself. The story delves into institutional failure, family denial, and the limitations of psychiatric evaluation when faced with individuals skilled at masking their pathology. Longo presents a sobering portrayal of how accountability can be avoided when perception outweighs truth.

Written for readers of psychological suspense, true-crime-inspired fiction, and character-driven thrillers, Charmingly Undiagnosed resonates with those interested in the darker intersections of mental health, family dynamics, and justice. Its emotional weight and unsettling realism linger long after the final page.

Ultimately, Charmingly Undiagnosed is a cautionary tale about what happens when warning signs are ignored and accountability is deferred. Through Riley’s voice, Billie Longo gives form to the often-silenced experience of those who see the truth—and are forced to live with the consequences when no one listens.

The AI-generated art collection delivers a romantic visual journey through Italy’s landscapes, towns, and coastal beauty, inspired by classical artistry.

NEW YORK CITY, NY, UNITED STATES, January 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Visual artist and curator Art Cofre invites readers into a richly atmospheric exploration of one of the world’s most beloved destinations with Charm and Beauty of Italy Paintings to Inspire Your Creativity. Part of the ongoing AI Generated Paintings series, this thoughtfully designed paperback art book captures the soul of Italy through more than 35 evocative images created with advanced artificial intelligence.

The collection presents a painterly journey across Italy, from the rolling hills of Tuscany to the sunlit shores of the Mediterranean. Each page reflects the warmth of Italian light and the timeless harmony between nature and architecture, portraying landscapes that feel both romantic and serene. Vineyard-lined valleys, olive groves, and countryside retreats unfold alongside dramatic coastal cliffs, quiet harbors, and shimmering blue waters.

Italian towns are depicted with particular charm, featuring cobblestone streets, terra-cotta rooftops, and intimate village scenes that evoke nostalgia and a sense of slow living. Lush gardens filled with fountains, cypress trees, and classical symmetry add to the book’s tranquil rhythm, inviting readers to linger and reflect with each turn of the page.

Curated to guide viewers visually from northern to southern Italy, the book highlights the country’s diverse moods, seasons, and color palettes. While the artwork is AI-generated, it is intentionally composed to honor classical artistic traditions, blending modern innovation with timeless aesthetic values. The result is a collection that feels both contemporary and enduring.

Art Cofre’s inspiration for the book lies in Italy’s lasting influence on global art and culture. Rather than serving as a travel guide, Charm and Beauty of Italy Paintings to Inspire Your Creativity functions as a source of visual meditation—encouraging viewers to dream, imagine, and create. Art enthusiasts will find inspiration in the compositions, palettes, and implied brushwork, while aspiring painters may feel motivated to reinterpret the scenes through their own artistic lens.

More than a collection of images, the book gently invites readers to imagine future journeys—wandering through vineyards, coastal villages, and historic towns—while appreciating the beauty of Italy from wherever they are. It stands as both a celebration of visual artistry and a timeless source of inspiration.

The book is now available — secure your copy here: https://a.co/d/jksX5HW
