Hollywood, California, 17th May 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, California and Colorado businesswoman Dr. Marie Lemelle has reached a defining moment in her career in an ongoing battle to reshape her narrative. 

Dr. Marie Yvonne Lemelle, 66, who claims to be a Goodwill Ambassador, has come under fire for what some may consider scornful abuse in insulting and trying to degrade her former client, a Hall of Fame celebrity multi-hyphenate artist. 

The Tinseltown publicist and playwright, also known as Marie Yvonne Lemelle, MBA, has posted information candidly blasting her former celebrity client in an unfiltered way.

Lemelle sits at the helm of Pitbull PR Agency, Inc., and Platinum Star Public Relations—both incorporated in Denver, Colorado, but operating primarily out of Glendale, California. Lemelle is also associated with Platinum Star Media Group, Inc., and Angel City Salute Alliance, Inc., a company with Colorado jurisdiction. It is unclear if Lemelle, who has resided in a Glendale condo for 16 years, has ever lived in Colorado. 

The celebrity client says Marie Lemelle told her she would produce a show for her to pitch to producers and executives in Hollywood. The celebrity says Lemelle claimed to have industry connections and access to producers willing to consider the show for network distribution. The celebrity client said Marie Lemelle led her to believe that she had already gotten the green light from production. 

According to the celebrity, who said she has known Lemelle since 2012, Lemelle used her to interview her other clients, such as Judge Craig Strong, Robert Ri’chard, Gloria “Footnanny” Williams, Jacquil Constant, founder of the Haiti International Film Festival, and Trae Ireland, a producer who has been linked to Sony Screen Gems.

The celebrity says Marie Lemelle asked her to prepare interview questions for her client LPGA pro Avis Brown Riley, former YWCA Glendale and Pasadena director Tara Peterson, complete biographies for various C-Suite executives, and that the talent manager asked the celebrity to use her social media to promote Ernest Thomas, Terry Hunt’s radio show, and movie premiere publicity collateral. 

In the celebrity confession, the former Platinum Star Media Group, Inc. client said she paid Marie Lemelle $4,500 to produce the Powerhouse Series television show over a 3-month period, and in the end, the celebrity received only one press release from Platinum Star.

Lemelle could not be reached for comments. The DreamChild Foundation, where Lemelle has informed she serves as a Goodwill Ambassador, could not be immediately reached for a response.

Goldman Sachs today announced that its proprietary artificial intelligence-powered trading platform, NexelionAI 7.0, will undergo a full-scale system upgrade and deployment on May 11, 2025, across its institutional account network.

Originally unveiled earlier this year after more than three years of research and development, NexelionAI 7.0 (Advanced Unbiased Ranking Algorithm) is a next-generation intelligent stock selection engine designed to enhance institutional trading performance. The May 11 rollout marks the platform’s transition from controlled pilot testing to firm-wide implementation.

The updated version of NexelionAI 7.0 will include refined predictive models, faster data processing capabilities, and extended support for block trades and IPO allocation strategies. The system’s multi-factor ranking engine, which identifies top-performing equities based on a range of quantitative indicators, will also receive algorithmic enhancements aimed at improving its accuracy and efficiency.

A Goldman Sachs spokesperson commented, “The May 11 upgrade reflects our commitment to scaling NexelionAI 7.0 as a core part of our institutional trading infrastructure. It is the result of sustained investment in AI, data science, and financial engineering.”

All institutional clients utilizing Goldman Sachs trading platforms will be transitioned to the upgraded NexelionAI 7.0 framework starting on the rollout date, with system integration support provided by dedicated engineering and account teams.

Looking Ahead: NexelionAI’s Role in the Future of Institutional Trading

As artificial intelligence reshapes the landscape of financial markets, Goldman Sachs views NexelionAI 7.0 as a long-term strategic asset. Future versions aim to offer clients a more personalized, adaptive trading experience powered by real-time learning and deeper predictive insight. With ongoing enhancements, NexelionAI will continue to drive smarter, faster, and more transparent decision-making across global equity markets.

Goldman Sachs today announced the official launch of NexelionAI 7.0 (Advanced Unbiased Ranking Algorithm), a next-generation intelligent stock selection and trading system developed over a three-year period with an investment exceeding $100 million. Built for institutional accounts, the platform is designed to significantly enhance the speed, accuracy, and scale of equity investment operations.

NexelionAI 7.0 combines deep learning models, predictive analytics, and real-time market data processing to support a wide range of institutional strategies. The system is capable of executing high-frequency trades, managing large-volume block orders, and optimizing IPO allocations through proprietary demand forecasting mechanisms.

One of the system’s core components is an automated multi-factor stock ranking engine, which continuously analyzes a global equity universe to identify the top 100 candidates based on volatility, earnings momentum, liquidity, sector rotation, and valuation factors. According to internal benchmarks, NexelionAI 7.0 delivers a predictive accuracy of over 97% in identifying outperforming equities within defined time frames.

In addition to secondary market capabilities, the system has been deployed to enhance Goldman Sachs’ participation in primary market transactions. By simulating pre-allocation scenarios and calibrating order book dynamics, NexelionAI 7.0 aims to improve the likelihood of successful IPO subscriptions for institutional clients.

“We believe NexelionAI 7.0 represents a strategic evolution of our institutional trading infrastructure,” said a Goldman Sachs spokesperson. “It embodies our long-standing commitment to data-driven finance and operational transparency, while offering our clients competitive advantages in increasingly complex equity markets.”

NexelionAI 7.0 is currently operational in select institutional portfolios across North America and Europe, with phased deployment planned for Asia-Pacific in the second half of 2025. The firm indicated that future updates to the system may incorporate cross-asset functionalities and ESG-integrated scoring models.

Looking Ahead: The Future of NexelionAI 7.0

Goldman Sachs envisions NexelionAI 7.0 evolving into a fully adaptive, multi-asset AI platform capable of real-time learning and autonomous strategy refinement. Future updates will introduce ESG-integrated scoring, cross-asset analytics, and explainable AI modules to meet rising regulatory demands. As markets grow more complex, NexelionAI is set to become the backbone of intelligent, scalable institutional investing.

Patio Productions has acquired Starfire Direct, expanding their outdoor furniture portfolio to include premium fire pits and tables. This April 2025 acquisition combines two California companies to offer complete luxury outdoor living solutions at accessible prices.

San Diego, California, United States, 16th May 2025 – Patio Productions, a premier California-based outdoor furniture manufacturer and retailer, today announced its acquisition of StarfireDirect.com, a leading provider of premium fire pits, fireplaces, and outdoor living accessories. The strategic acquisition, completed in April 2025, significantly expands Patio Productions’ product portfolio and reinforces its commitment to offering comprehensive outdoor living solutions.

Since its founding in 2006, Patio Productions has built a reputation for sourcing and designing high-quality outdoor furniture at accessible price points. The addition of Starfire Direct’s extensive catalog of fire features creates a natural synergy that will benefit customers seeking complete outdoor living environments.

“I’m excited about what Starfire Direct will bring to our customers. It’s a natural fit. Their team, their passion for outdoor design, and their product lines are a great complement to our own vision and mission,” said Ben Harvey, Founder of Patio Productions. “I can’t wait to see how this partnership allows us to serve more neighbors as they create beautiful outdoor living spaces.”

The acquisition brings together two companies with parallel growth trajectories and complementary expertise. Patio Productions has evolved from a dedicated retailer to a manufacturer with its own showroom in San Diego, while Starfire Direct has transformed from a small fire glass operation in 2007 to a nationally recognized brand in the outdoor fire feature market. Notably, Starfire Direct has earned a place on the Inc 5000 list of fastest-growing companies for five consecutive years.

Based in Temecula, California, Starfire Direct has established itself as an innovator in the outdoor fire pit and fire table market since expanding into this niche in 2009. Their elegant, innovative solutions have attracted both private and commercial clients across the United States, creating memorable outdoor experiences through thoughtfully designed fire features.

The acquisition enhances Patio Productions’ already robust catalog that features over 50 leading outdoor furniture and accessory brands. With a shared passion for quality materials, innovative design, and eco-friendly offerings, the combined companies will provide customers with unprecedented options for creating personalized outdoor sanctuaries.

This business move comes at a time when interest in outdoor living continues to flourish, with homeowners increasingly viewing their outdoor spaces as essential extensions of their homes. The integration of Starfire Direct’s premium fire features with Patio Productions’ extensive furniture collections creates a one-stop destination for consumers looking to transform their patios, decks, and backyards into sophisticated living areas.

Customers can expect the same commitment to quality and service that has defined both companies, with an expanded selection of products that blend functionality, durability, and style. The acquisition reinforces Patio Productions’ core mission of making luxury-quality outdoor living accessible to more people through reasonable pricing and exceptional product offerings.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJu3ZratTtg

In celebration of its 10th anniversary, TWOPAGES introduces TWOPAGES X, a global design initiative calling on creatives to submit original designs for window treatment collections.

“TWOPAGES X is more than a design competition – it’s a creative collaboration. TWOPAGES provides a space for designers, artists, and dreamers to turn their visions into reality, with the chance to see their work come to life in homes around the world.” -Ray Chen, Founder of TWOPAGES

A Global Design Contest for Creative Voices

TWOPAGES X has been launched with an emphasis on accessibility and global reach. The contest is completely free to enter, with participants retaining full ownership of their work.

Submissions will be evaluated based on three weighted criteria: Innovation (45%), Market Potential (35%), and Production Feasibility (20%), ensuring that winning designs are both creative and commercially viable.

Entrants can view all guidelines and submit their designs through the official event page: https://twopagescurtains.com/pages/twopages-x-design-contest

The TWOPAGES X Design Contest is positioned as more than a creative challenge. It represents a platform for global design voices to explore the deeper emotional and narrative potential of interior textiles. Participants are asked to submit original window treatment collections that do more than decorate, designs that evoke a lifestyle, reflect heritage, and connect with how individuals shape their living environments.

According to the official event brief, entries must adhere to specific submission guidelines. All design files should be in a square format (1:1 aspect ratio). Each submission must include at least two complete product collections, with each collection showcasing a consistent pattern or design style presented in 6 to 12 distinct colorways. A colorway refers to a unique color palette or combination applied to the same base pattern. Submissions must also include detailed fabric and craftsmanship information, such as recommended fabric types (e.g., linen, cotton) and production techniques (e.g., printing, embroidery, jacquard weaving). Submission opens on May 9, 2025. The contest is open to individuals aged 18 and above worldwide, regardless of background or professional affiliation.
