Pivotal Corporation, the Seattle start-up responsible for disrupting the wearable fitness marketplace with its $12 Pivotal Living Band, is pleased to announce pre-order availability for the Pivotal Living Smart Scale, a smarter scale with an even smarter price. Available for $39.95, just a fraction of the cost of most smart scales on the market, the elegant and efficient smart scale integrates seamlessly with the Pivotal Living app to provide a more intelligent way to manage body weight and overall health.
“Our mission has always been to spark a movement toward proactive health and wellness through affordable and powerful, personal health technology,” said David Donovick, CEO for Pivotal Corporation. “We are very proud to introduce a feature-rich smart scale to our family of products and software, and are thrilled to be able to offer it to our members at a pizza-dinner price!”
Using advanced bioimpedance technology, the Pivotal Living Smart Scale accurately measures key body weight and body fat percentage factors, helping people lose weight and stay healthy. Designed to help users identify when they are burning fat, building muscle and losing weight, the sleek smart scale displays weight on the scale’s easy-to-read LCD display screen and, when synced to the Pivotal Living mobile app, sends additional weight and body details. The scale’s four load sensors accurately assess body composition measurements based on weight and height data stored within the app. Working together, the scale and app measure and track.

Wine connoisseurs and novices alike can experience the art of winemaking at BLEND aboard Holland America Line’s new ms Koningsdam when the ship debuts in April 2016. In collaboration with Chateau Ste. Michelle, Washington State’s oldest and most acclaimed winery, the intimate venue will enable guests to blend their own wine and enjoy it at dinner or in the privacy of their stateroom.
BLEND — the first of its kind for Holland America Line and the only purpose-built wine-blending venue at sea — will have a tasting table that accommodates 10 guests who can create their own blend from a selection of five barrels of single-vineyard red wine. In addition to participating in the blending process, guests also will learn about wine from the ship’s wine expert, who leads the blending session.
“At the core of every Holland America Line cruise is our desire to offer unique, immersive and innovative experiences, and BLEND by Chateau Ste. Michelle is all of those things and more,” said Orlando Ashford, president of Holland America Line. “The BLEND experience on Koningsdam is designed to appeal to everyone, and it will be exciting for our guests to create an exclusive wine tailored to their personal taste that they can enjoy onboard with our exceptional cuisine.”
