Chiropractor Launches Web site to Promote Supplement for Healthy Bones

Chiropractor Launches Web site to Promote Supplement for Healthy Bones

Founder of HealthyAsWeAge. com, Sandra Burns, created an online business to promote and distribute a variety of nutritional supplements that boost healthy bones and joints to a global market. As a chiropractor, she hand selected the best variety of essential supplements such as Osteo-Guard and vitamin D. Customers are encouraged to visit the site's blog to learn about osteoporosis and other ailments.

Portland, OR (PRWEB) November 7, 2009

Sandra Burns has dedicated the past 20 years of her life to helping and healing her patients with musculoskeletal disorders, which affect the nervous system and general health. As a chiropractic physician, she is an expert in regards to treating joint and muscle pain as well as a various amount of bone diseases. In an effort to extend her knowledge and services outside of her office, she developed www. HealthyAsWeAge. com to promote and distribute a variety of nutritional supplements that strengthen bones while reversing osteoporosis.

"Vitamin D is a huge bonus for people who live above the 35th parallel because they don't make enough activated vitamin D to absorb calcium from their diet to be transferred into their bloodstream," Burns said. "A deficiency of calcium in your bloodstream, when detected by the parathyroid glands, will cause your bones to yield calcium to the bloodstream. Thus, the patient will experience osteoarthritis."

In addition to her recommended supplements, Burns has also formulated a routine to reverse osteoarthritis. Inspired by Dr. Dean Ornish, author of "Reversing Heart Disease," her regime includes changing one's diet, exercise and meditation along with her own stipulations of having one's spine aligned and taking supplements.

Burns is also an advocate for the proper daily intake of vitamin C, which can be found in Osteo-Guard and Ultra C 500. She explains that it is a catalyst and a required element for more than 500 different reactions in the human body. Because the body doesn't naturally make vitamin C, it must be consumed in large quantities daily.

Burns plans to discuss a variety of general health information on her newly implemented blog, www. HealthyWithAge. com. Here shoppers can look forward to learning about ailments such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and joint pain. She also plans to write about the validity of bone density scans and the importance of a high-calcium diet, which can be attained through supplements for those who are dairy intolerant.

HealthyAsWeAge. com is dedicated to helping people stay happy and healthy with a daily recommended dose of nutritional supplements and expert advice.

The Changing CDN Market: The Media Delivery Market is Undergoing Rapid, Dramatic Changes

The Changing CDN Market: The Media Delivery Market is Undergoing Rapid, Dramatic Changes

Dublin (PRWEB) October 4, 2005

Research and Markets (http://www. researchandmarkets. com/reports/c25013 (http://www. researchandmarkets. com/reports/c25013)) has announced the addition of The Costs of CDN and Streaming Services: 3rd Edition (Vendor Pricing and Customer Expectations) to their offering

This report summarizes the results of three research studies conducted in Q2 of 2005. It is intended to provide buyers of media delivery services with guidance on industry pricing, best practices, and engagement methodologies that can be used to balance CDN costs with required service levels.

The Study is focused on the motivations for purchasing streaming services, the specific components and pricing models used, and the net costs of outsourced streaming. Three related research projects contributed to the study including a Web-based survey that was administered via the Web site, forty four half-hour telephone interviews with IT decision-makers who manage streaming media services for their companies and a survey of CDN vendors regarding list prices and service capabilities including Akamai, Limelight Networks, Mirror Image, SAVVIS, and VitalStream.

This report tells you the two or three data points that you, as a buyer of CDN services, can give to your current or future vendor in order for them to be able to provide a baseline quote. It also explores the variables that impact the price, and the trade-offs available to you to increase or decrease your overall costs for media delivery services. It is intended to provide buyers of media delivery services with guidance on industry pricing, best practices, and engagement methodologies that can be used to balance CDN costs with required service levels.

Most importantly, this report will show you that, in the end, price is not the most important element. What you really need is flexibility. CDN prices have plummeted over the last three years and will continue to drop (although not as fast). With enough accurate information about the changing market, contract terms that reflect a still-evolving marketplace, and a healthy and productive buyer-vendor relationship, you can ensure that you can reach the price points at the service levels you need.

Key findings of the report include details on:

The Pricing Disconnect: Not surprisingly, there is a wide gap between what buyers of media delivery services say they are paying and what suppliers say they are charging. This is to be expected-buyers often overestimate their savings, and vendors want to protect their margins. This report summarizes both ends of the spectrum and also provides the actual market norms for prices based on actual contract negotiations from the last three years.

The Changing CDN Market: The media delivery market is undergoing rapid, dramatic changes. With Akamai's acquisition of Speedera in the spring of 2005, buyers are scrambling to find a viable "number 2" vendor. This report provides a ranking of CDN vendors by buyers. Based on reputation, VitalStream and LimeLight Networks look to be the main contenders to fill the role vacated by Speedera. However, other vendors like AT&T and Mirror Image, and even software solutions like those provided by Kontiki have a chance to step up in this crucial post-consolidation environment.

Getting the Right Price: Buyers always say price is their primary consideration. But at what cost? Research results show how requirements relating to commit rates, uptime availability, security, and customer service impact the overall price.

WristbandConnection. com Launches BAND AGAINST BULLYING Wristband Campaign

WristbandConnection. com Launches BAND AGAINST BULLYING Wristband Campaign

Features one-of-a-kind wristbands, designed to create visibility, empower victims and ultimately save lives

Houston, TX (PRWEB) November 1, 2010 –

Wristband Connection (http://www. WristbandConnection. com) today announced the launch of its BAND AGAINST BULLYING wristbands and an awareness campaign. The campaign is centered around Wristband Connection’s one-of-a-kind wide silicone wristband, seen here at http://www. wristbandconnection. com/band-against-bullying. php. The wristbands were created as a way for students, faculty and parents to say no to bullying; whether it is by reporting an incident, actively stepping in, speaking up for a victim, or being there for someone who is the victim of bullying. BAND AGAINST BULLYING wristbands act as visible symbol. The hope is that bullies who see the bands worn by fellow students will reconsider their actions, knowing that they are being watched. BAND AGAINST BULLYING wristbands also send a message that times are changing and most importantly, that victims are not alone.

“Wearing a BAND AGAINST BULLYING wristband says that you are united in your pledge to stop this type of abuse,” says Victor Rey, Founder and CEO of Wristband Connection. “Bullying affects all of our children whether they are victims, perpetrators or witnesses.”

According to the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services, an estimated 30-percent of all children in grades six through twelve have been bullied or have bullied other children during a school year. But, it does not stop there. Bullying is taking its toll on college students, as reported recently in the news. Several students have committed suicide as a result.

The escalation of this problem has celebrities like Ellen DeGeneres, Tim Gunn, and Chelsea Handler pleading to put an end to bullying through public announcements. Councilman Joel Burns, Forth Worth, Texas recently shared his own emotional story on national television.

“Each day, the focus of bullying in the media grows more urgent. Each day another child finds they are unable to cope with the intimidation, the teasing, the beating, and the emotional scarring of being bullied,” says Rey.

According to statistics, 160,000 students miss one day of school each year out of fear or shame. “One thing is apparent,” says Rey. “It is time to take a stand against bullying.”

With the plan to take the BAND AGAINST BULLYING wristbands to schools, community centers, and organizations nationwide, Wristband Connection (http://www. WristbandConnection. com) will feature a model on its website where businesses and communities can participate in sponsoring these wristbands for the schools. Wristband Connection will also feature useful information on anti-bullying and will recognize businesses that are active sponsors.

Wristband Connection is impassioned about this campaign and feels that while public announcements are important in educating children about the harmful effects of bullying, it is important for students to become proactive and to become a part of the solution.

“With the BAND AGAINST BULLYING wristbands, no words or confrontation is necessary. The band represents zero tolerance. It will make bullies think twice. It will empower victims. And ultimately, it will save lives,” says Rey.

Wristband Connection is a Houston, Texas based national company whose passion is embedded in the messages they create and market to communities and organizations through wristbands. Some programs they have helped sponsor are The Red Cross, The Lance Armstrong Foundation, and various Breast Cancer Awareness Programs. Wristband Connection (http://www. WristbandConnection. com) is banding together with their BAND AGAINST BULLYING wristbands and urges people to join this worthy cause.

Some Pomegranate Juice Products Deceive Consumers with Dishonest Labels and Ingredients, Reveals Newly Published Consumer Guide on Newstarget. com

Some Pomegranate Juice Products Deceive Consumers with Dishonest Labels and Ingredients, Reveals Newly Published Consumer Guide on Newstarget. com

A new consumer guide published on NewsTarget. com reveals that some pomegranate juice products sold in grocery stores are actually made with sugar water and "junk juice" blends.

Tucson, AZ (PRWEB) September 13, 2007

A new consumer guide published on NewsTarget. com reveals that some pomegranate juice products sold in grocery stores are actually made with sugar water and "junk juice" blends. While pictures on the front of the juice products show pomegranates and blueberries, the juice inside the bottle is often little more than apple and grape juice, said Mike Adams, nutrition author and producer of the free online consumer guide. Consumers can view the guide online at www. NewsTarget. com.

The consumer shopping guide covers both pomegranate and blueberry juices, and it reviews nearly a dozen top brands to show which ones are telling the truth about their products vs. which ones are deceiving consumers with dishonest labeling. "The POM Wonderful brand is among the very best," explained Adams, "And the Tropicana Pure brand is among the worst. Some companies are selling products primarily made with apple juice and grape juice as pomegranate juice."

To create the free consumer guide, Adams reviewed pomegranate juice product ingredients, comparing them to the claims implied by the pictures and words on the front labels of such products. Some products made primarily with apple juice show no apples at all on the front label, instead depicting pomegranates and blueberries while claiming "100% Juice!" in big letters. "This misleads consumers into thinking these products are one hundred percent pomegranate juice," explained Adams, "When in fact, they may only be five or ten percent pomegranate juice."

Some pomegranate juice products were found to be made with high fructose corn syrup or sugar. These were blended with water, then color enhanced with purple carrot extract to make them appear like more substantial juice products. One was found to be nearly three-fourths sugar water, containing only about 25 percent actual fruit juice.

Surprisingly, one popular brand owned by Coca-Cola (Odwalla) performed very well in this consumer guide review, earning four out of five stars for its use of honest ingredients and product labeling. PepsiCo's Tropicana Pure brand, however, fared poorly, earning a very low rating and condemnation for its "deceptive" photograph on the front label that fails to accurately depict what's really in the bottle.

What is Your New Year Resolution? - Cruise Line Recruiter Reveals Hiring Secret: Erling Frydenberg, Executive Vice President Talent Acquisition & President of The Cruise Division of Executive Search International on

"Not What, Not How, but Who and How to Ensure Their Success" - Companies Face a Worldwide Talent Crunch: Talent has become a strategic issue, as companies increasingly make decisions based on the availability of labor and skills -- and face the challenges of finding and keeping good people.

Orlando, FL (PRWEB) January 14, 2009

Slayton Search Partners' survey of its clients reveals five key issues hiring organizations find themselves needing to address in order to woo the very best talent:
An unwillingness to relocate Changes in the decision making process from an executive decision to a family decision Greater focus on work-life balance, health and overall happiness and fulfillment Higher salary and compensation expectations Desire for altruistic working environment  Talent has become a strategic issue, as companies increasingly make decisions based on the availability of labor and skills -- and face the challenges of finding and keeping good people.

According to experts at Wharton and The Boston Consulting Group, firms are increasingly questioning their workforce requirements and quality, training and development, and wage levels. Responses include over-hiring to meet future needs, upgrading training in concert with universities and in-house corporate schools, and extracting greater productivity through innovation.

Four best practices are emerging, Jim Hemerling, senior partner and managing director at BCG in San Francisco says, referring to the findings published this year in a new book he co-authored with BCG's Hal Sirkin and Arindam Bhattacharya titled, GLOBALITY: Competing with Everyone from Everywhere for Everything. According to the book, they include
Recruiting for rapid growth Developing deep skills and commitment in their people Training and deploying new hires quickly for early results Allowing leaders to seize and build on opportunities Hemerling says corporations, especially Western companies, have until now "essentially relied on poaching from other companies" -- escalating talent costs in "a zero sum game." But that is changing.

In addition, firms are "accelerating leadership development" by "giving people more responsibility sooner, and identifying high-profile individuals and giving them more training and developmental experiences."

So how do we ensure our employees success?
Planning: develop a plan that ensures our HR program emphasizes employee success and optimizes organizational performance Staffing: recruit & retain quality employees to keep our organization successful and competitive Compensation: provide fair & equitable compensation program to drive the behavior that produces successful and loyal employees Development: direct employees to pursue avenues of career development that will yield future organizational growth Review: conduct performance evaluations to regularly connect with employees and provide guidance to help them maintain career goals

Rashad McCants NBA Player, 3rd Annual Shoot For The Cure Breast Cancer Walk In Los Angeles, California

Rashad McCants NBA Player, 3rd Annual Shoot For The Cure Breast Cancer Walk In Los Angeles, California

NBA Player Rashad McCants Son Of A Breast Cancer Survivor Brenda McCants On A Mission To Make A Difference And Bring Awareness To Brest Cancer Took To The Streets Of Los Angeles California Walikng With Cancer Survivors And They're Families

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) July 23, 2010

NBA player Rashad McCants gathers friends and celebrities to walk to help bring awareness to Breast Cancer in Los Angeles. McCants mother, Brenda McCants a Breast Cancer survivor is his world. “My mother’s survival is so important to me; I have to do all I can to show my love and support for her. She has always been there for me and now is the time for me to do the same for her, she has made tremendous sacrifices for my well being over the years,” says McCants.

On the court, McCants plays hard, loves to win, keeps his game face on, and looks pretty intimidating with his arms filled with tattoos. On the other hand off the court, Rashad is full of love and compassion; he’s soft-spoken, easy going and generous when it comes to helping others especially his mother. So it wasn’t difficult for him to make the decision to be at her bedside when she fell ill to breast cancer. “I believe most people would have made the same decisions I did, you only get one mother and my mother is a woman of love and support, we depend on each other.” continues McCants.

Realizing the high statistics of breast cancer victims, McCants knew he had to do something to help create awareness. He started Shoot for Cure Foundation which been around since 2007 this is his 3rd annual event. The Foundation’s mission is to help make a difference in the lives of people affected by Breast Cancer by bringing awareness of the disease, educating families of survivors, supporting walk/run events and raising money for research, cure and the affected families. McCants says, “Shoot for the Cure helps people to realize the importance of early detection and how it saves lives.”

When asked how he deals with his mother’s illness, McCants replies, “I take it one day at a time. I’m grateful for everyday that I can talk to my mom or see her. I’m in the gym every day when I’m not with my mother. I’m focused, I’m thankful for my health and I’m a strong believer that God won’t give us anything that we can’t handle. I love my mother so much because she taught me how to smile, how to be thankful, and how to appreciate life. She’s has always taught me that hard work pays off. When I was drafted to the NBA, she told me to be the best player that I could be. Even though she’s a strong woman, I realize that breast cancer is a disease that does not discriminate. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among African American women and more likely than all other women to die from the disease.”

Mentora To Teach at Software Quality Engineering's STAREAST

Dan Downing, Vice President of Testing, to conduct training on software load testing with the open source testing tool OpenSTA on May 5.

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) February 25, 2008

Mentora Group, Inc., a leader in application hosting and testing, announced today that Dan Downing will teach a half-day hands-on training class "Load Testing with OpenSTA" at Software Quality Engineering's STAREAST 2008 conference at the Rosen Centre Hotel in Orlando, FL on May 5.

"As an Open Source performance testing tool, OpenSTA offers an attractive alternative for load testing but it can be tough to use it efficiently and effectively without the training you can get for commercial products," said Dan Downing, Mentora VP of Testing. "I look forward to sharing the best practices for load testing and the OpenSTA-specific techniques and workarounds Mentora has developed through real-life experience."

The five steps of load testing: Discover, Develop, Run, Fix and Report, will be discussed and demonstrated as Mr. Downing uses OpenSTA on a real performance testing project. Templates and tools to supplement OpenSTA's features and overcome some of its limitations, particularly in that area of results analysis, will be provided. He will also provide insights into how best to access and leverage ongoing support from the online Open Source community. "Like many of the valuable STAREAST sessions I've attended, it's targeted to provide specific information that novice or experienced testers can apply on their next project", added Mr. Downing.

"For the past six years, Dan has been a favorite speaker at the STAREAST and STARWEST testing conferences. His presentations have added significantly to the field of performance testing by defining processes for effective load and stress testing. In addition, he explains how to produce compelling presentations of test results. His techniques are applicable both to internally developed applications and third-party systems such as Oracle, SAP and PeopleSoft," stated Lee Copeland, Senior Consultant at Software Quality Engineering.

Mentora Group uses OpenSTA for its value eCommerce load testing services and HP LoadRunner for its premium performance testing services for. Net, java, WebSphere MQ, EDI and ERP applications. It also offers Web-based training on both LoadRunner and OpenSTA.

Human Heart Found On Wall Street

Human Heart Found On Wall Street

Brokerage firms and traders alike, scramble to unscramble the mystery that could spell the end of life as they know it. Amidst the greed, corruption, and wealth building that has long been the hallmark of the "Belly of the Beast", a kinder gentler investor is emerging - The Christian Trader.

Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) August 4, 2004

Christian Traders (http://christiantraders. com/forum) continues to gather momentum as the Internet's fastest growing faith-based investment community.

For many years Wall Street has been accurately defined by what the movie of the same name portrayed. Today, there is a paradigm shift taking place. The greed we saw, and which many aspired to in the '80's, is being recognized by many investors for what it really is, a legacy they would rather future generations not read in their biography.

Like the final scene of "Schindler's List", aging Boomers are realizing there is more to life than a Presidential Rolex, or diamond studded earrings from Tiffany & Co. Compassion for the less fortunate is spreading quicker than the MyDoom Virus. Globally, investors are realizing that their clock won't tick forever, and as a result are searching for new and unique ways to leave behind a better world than the one in which they live.

Christian Traders (http://christiantraders. com/forum) is now ranked the premier destination on the Internet for philanthropic investors seeking to exchange innovative and charitable ideas with like-minded individuals. The free flow of discussion centers around more than "How much can I make?". The conversations, and even the philosophy behind the company itself, are geared more towards "What should I do with it?". On any given day, you're more apt to hear about someone's dream of building an orphanage in a third world country or feeding the homeless here in America, than which realtor they should use to purchase that Tuscan summer home.

Along with a sense of community and a place to connect, Christian Traders offers daily trading ideas, economic and market commentary, along with profiles of carefully selected companies. The hottest topic at the moment, is the anomaly called CMKM Diamonds Inc., traded on the Pink Sheets as CMKX. Although the profile carries a healthy disclaimer on the site, it can't be ignored, as it has become the most heavily traded stock in market history. More interesting than the sheer volume, is the excitement and drama that surrounds the company. Dividends, mergers, naked shorting, and almost daily headlines from a sub-penny stock, have investors on the edge of their seats as they mine the possibility of turning pennies into millions.

A "Global Prayer Chain" (http://christiantrader. proboards28.com/index. cgi? board=prayer) was recently started for key players of CMKX who are dealing with health issues. The outpouring of prayer and support has been overwhelming.

Other current profiles include AZMN (http://azco. com)- Azco Mining, DHPI (http://dhpi. com)- Desert Health Products, and DJRT (http://racingadventure. com)- Dale Jarrett's Racing Adventure.

Christian Traders Online Forum (http://christiantraders. com/forum)

CEO DeWayne Reeves recently stated, "Our growth is dynamic to say the least. We have been forced to rapidly advance our timeline for deployment of services as demand has exceeded our greatest expectations. Our infrastructure is being built out rapidly to accommodate our members needs. The CT Forum (http://christiantraders. com/forum) experienced over 210,000 hits during it's first month in operation. I believe essentially what's happened, is that we have simply tapped into the intrinsic 'goodness' of mankind. Our primary objective remains to teach the importance of becoming Kingdom Builders, not wealth builders. This is not a new concept, but one that is taking hold largely in part, as a direct result of Rick Warren's best-selling book, The Purpose Driven Life. We are grateful to Rick not only for his book, but for helping us all to understand - It's not about me."

Dealing with a Web of Trouble on the Face: Dermatologist Joshua Fox Explains Causes, Describes Treatment for Spider Veins

Dealing with a Web of Trouble on the Face: Dermatologist Joshua Fox Explains Causes, Describes Treatment for Spider Veins

Spider veins are caused by several factors including aging, pregnancy, childbirth, birth control pills, estrogen replacement therapy, sun damage and Rosacea. Fortunately, there are in-office treatments that your dermatologist can perform to remove these facial veins and improve your appearance.

Roslyn, New York (PRWEB) July 22, 2010

Dermatologist Dr. Joshua Fox addresses causes and treatment for spider veins on the face this summer. Among the many skin changes people notice as they age, one of the most disturbing may be the fine, red lines they begin to see on their noses, chins or cheeks, often by the time they reach age 30. These broken blood vessels or capillaries, also known as spider veins, or telangiectasias, are tiny vessels that are visible just beneath the skin’s surface. While not painful, they are often disconcerting since they can create large, unsightly red areas on the face. Sometimes people with these prominent veins are mistaken for alcohol abusers.

According to the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services, slightly more than half of American women and up to 45 percent of men suffer from some form of a vein problem, accounting for millions of Americans. “Spider veins are caused by several factors,” says leading dermatologist Joshua L. Fox, M. D. “These include aging, pregnancy, childbirth, birth control pills, estrogen replacement therapy, sun damage and Rosacea. Fortunately, there are in-office treatments that your dermatologist can perform to remove these facial veins and improve your appearance.

“The first way to avoid spider veins on your face is to try to make sure you don’t get them in the first place,” says Dr. Fox, founder of Advanced Dermatology PC and a spokesperson for the American Academy of Dermatology. He explains that while some such veins are promoted by genetics or hormones, “the main way to keep spider veins from appearing on your face is through constant and consistent protection from the damaging rays of the sun. Excess sun exposure over many years has numerous negative effects on the skin, including the development of tiny red lines or spider veins,” Dr. Fox says.

“Any time your skin is going to be exposed to the sun, you should liberally apply a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher with both UVA and UVB protection. “Regardless of the weather or time of year, protection from the sun is critical to your health and appearance and is important to protect delicate skin not only from unsightly spider veins but also from deadly cancers.

If spider veins are bothersome, Dr. Fox says, they can be treated in your dermatologist’s office. “Laser therapy is the preferred means of removing spider veins on the face and has been the gold standard for the past 20 years. The veins selectively absorb the laser’s wavelengths of light; this light destroys the blood vessels and restores the skin’s natural appearance. Laser treatment is quick, safe and the results are immediate.”

According to Dr. Fox, smaller veins on the face typically require only a single laser treatment that lasts about 10-15 minutes. Some people may choose to have a topical anesthetic or ice applied to the area being treated to reduce possible discomfort. Side effects are few and include temporary discoloration of the site, blistering, crusting, redness or occasional bruising. A key benefit is that laser treatment targets only the broken blood vessels and not the surrounding skin.

“Most people are quite pleased with their appearance following laser treatment,” Dr. Fox says. “In fact, there are multiple lasers to treat spider veins and there is an 80 - 90 % chance for a greatly improved appearance with laser treatment. However, Dr. Fox warns even after treatment new ones can and may appear.

Dr. Fox offers some questions to consider when thinking about spider veins on the face:

1. Does the redness cause me to feel embarrassed about the way I look?

2. Do I have spider veins or is the redness caused by another condition, such as Rosacea, melanoma or something else?

3. Do people ever ask you if you drink a lot? They may think that your face is red because you are drunk.

If the answer to any of these questions is yes, or if you simply have a concern about some change to the skin on your face, Dr. Fox recommends scheduling a visit with your Board-certified dermatologist, who knows your health history and can recommend the best ways to care for your skin and treat your specific conditions.

About Dr. Fox: Joshua L. Fox, M. D., F. A.A. D., earned his medical degree from the Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York. He completed an internship at Maimonides Hospital in Brooklyn, followed by a three-year dermatology residency at the New York University School of Medicine. A Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology, Dr. Fox is a leading authority in the field of dermatology, with an expertise in skin cancer, cosmetic surgery and laser procedures. He is the founder and director of Advanced Dermatology, P. C. of New York and New Jersey and the Center for Laser and Cosmetic Surgery (www. advanceddermatologypc. com) and is a spokesman for both the American Academy of Dermatology and the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery. He is founder and president of New Age Research Foundation, a non-profit committed to improving the quality of life of those with skin conditions (www. newageskin. org).

Baby Hands Productions Announces 'My Baby Can Talk - Exploring Signs' the Newest Release in the Award Winning 'My Baby Can Talk' DVD Series

Baby Hands Productions Announces 'My Baby Can Talk - Exploring Signs' the Newest Release in the Award Winning 'My Baby Can Talk' DVD Series

Educational program for babies and their parents inspires early language development - from sign language to first spoken words.

Scotts Valley, CA (PRWEB) October 15, 2007

Baby Hands Productions, a company founded on the principle that babies can effectively communicate before they can speak, today announced the release of "My Baby Can Talk™ - Exploring Signs," the third in the highly acclaimed and award winning "My Baby Can Talk™" DVD series. Based on American Sign Language (ASL), this series teaches preverbal babies to communicate with their parents using simple gestures.

"My Baby Can Talk™ - Exploring Signs" is produced with the same proven format that garnered fourteen prestigious parenting awards and made the first two DVDs in this series the most popular sign language program for hearing babies. This third DVD offers babies and their parents more advanced signs and words in a format that delights the senses while tapping into a baby's natural language abilities.

"My Baby Can Talk™ - Exploring Signs" introduces babies to twenty-four words and signs to encourage them to explore and begin to communicate about the wonders of the world around them. This playful exploration presents baby's expanding world in a fun and fascinating way -- offering words and signs for colors, foods, nature and play. Included is a Parent Tutorial focusing on key guidelines to begin signing with babies as well as additional signs for parents to teach their little ones -- including signs for emotions. This program also includes a printed Quick Reference Signing Card offering illustrations of the signs presented.

The format of the "My Baby Can Talk™" series is specifically designed to respect the developmental stage, attention span and intellect of babies from 10 to 36 months. This series features beautiful real world images, delightful puppet shows, colorful toys in motion and babies communicating with simple gestures. Each sign is demonstrated by babies and an adult, making the "My Baby Can Talk™" series the first baby sign language program to feature preverbal babies signing all the words presented.

"Sign language is helping parents to fully appreciate how truly brilliant their preverbal babies are simply because babies are now able to communicate before they can speak." said Kathleen Waidhofer, Creative Director of Baby Hands Productions. "The concept is very simple. At ten months of age the average hearing baby is unable to speak but is able to use simple hand movements to communicate basic wants and needs instead of crying."

Research has shown that babies are able to communicate using baby sign language well before their vocal capacity to formulate spoken words is developed. Babies who use sign language tend to speak sooner with larger vocabularies, show an increase in IQ scores and engage in more sophisticated play. Preverbal signing has also been shown to reduce the frustration broadly associated with "the terrible twos."

"My Baby Can Talk™ - Exploring Signs" is available now from the My Baby Can Talk web site at an MSRP of $19.95. This new release will also be available by the end of the year at the same fine retailers where "My Baby Can Talk™ - First Signs" and "My Baby Can Talk™ - Sharing Signs" are offered -- the Right Start, Babies R Us, Borders, buybuyBaby, and specialty retailers across the US. More information is available at www. MyBabyCanTalk. com.

About Baby Hands Productions:
Dedicated to providing babies with the power to communicate preverbally, Baby Hands Productions introduced the My Baby Can Talk™ product line in 2004. This remarkable educational program inspired the growing trend of teaching hearing babies to use baby sign language to communicate. Created to stimulate a baby's love for learning as well as a baby's natural drive to acquire language; My Baby Can Talk™ teaches babies and parents to communicate at an early age, reducing frustration and creating a special bond that is so important for healthy child development.

Honored with fourteen prestigious awards including Parents Choice and reviewed and endorsed by child psychologists, speech pathologists, professionals in the media as well as early childhood educators; My Baby Can Talk™ teaches preverbal communication using sign language and is the first program featuring preverbal babies signing all the words presented. Baby Hands Productions' products help babies and their parents realize the amazing benefits of using simple hand movements to communicate.

MyBabyCanTalk. com is the premier resource center on the Internet for babies and signing featuring detailed tutorials, background research, and a video dictionary with more than 200 ASL signs that are most important to and appropriate for babies and toddlers.

Security in Domain Registration – What's All the Hype About?

Security in Domain Registration – What's All the Hype About?

A breakdown of fundamental aspects you should consider when choosing the right registration company for your business, not only for your own peace of mind but for your clients and future business prospects.

Barcelona, Spain (PRWEB) January 18, 2006

When it comes to registering your domain name and establishing your presence online, there are fundamental aspects that need to be taken into consideration in order to prevent unnecessary hurdles from affecting both you and your customers.

Whether you are a small or large company, or simply interested in setting up your own personal website, what you need are effective solutions and the correct business tools at a respectable price to offer you peace of mind. I would strongly recommend not looking for cheap imitations of registrars offering you the best quality at ridiculously cheap prices as they don’t tend to go hand in hand. You should be looking for a registrar that will provide you a service that offers guaranteed performance, support, reliability, user-friendliness and, above all, SECURITY.

“But surely security is offered by all, right?”, I hear you ask. Although this statement is generally correct, this security aspect is often neglected by some registrars, even the top dogs in the business. Below are some key areas that you should consider regarding registration security, and will hopefully explain - without all the technical jargon - and assist you in deciding which registrar company suits your needs and expectations.

Why is security so important? 

Security issues adopted by the principal registration companies guarantee that your domain is safeguarded against domain highjackers or others who want to transfer your domain(s) to another registrar without your specific authorization. The knock-on effects will not only imply loosing your domain name but will also result in a costly downtime of yours and your customers´ websites. Furthermore, you could even look at it as a direct attack on your online identity, the traffic base you have worked so hard to attract on the reputation of your service and products.

Password based security

Let us take the example of Anakena. com, a leading European registrar whose company policy places an important emphasis on security, real-time customer support and a multilingual service. They use a system whereby all your communications are encrypted, which means that when you access your Anakena personal account page you are automatically transferred to a secured connection using the secured protocol https. This measure has been put in place to prevent possible uses of ‘sniffers’ in your online connection. Furthermore, their security procedure also prevents anyone using your email to reset your password. The procedure is simple, and requests that all those clients who have forgotten their password need to answer 2 questions before receiving an email to reset their new one. If that security hurdle isn’t enough to keep the most demanding client satisfied, then knowing that his/her password is then encrypted on the Anakena servers, where nobody is able to see it, is just another reassuring and preventive measure. As the saying goes, it is always better to prevent than to cure (especially if the curing period comes too late!).

Payment

Payment has always been a soft spot, due to the fear of your bank details, access codes and personal information falling into unknown hands. Not only this, but the majority of people who purchase a product or service over the web also want to know exactly how much it will cost (be sure to read the small print), what payment alternative payment methods exist and when you will get invoiced. This equation might simplify this:

Consolidated Payment Options* 

+ 

Secure & Automated Invoicing 

= 

RELIABLE PAYMENT PROCESS YOU CAN TRUST

Direct Debit, Wire Transfer and PayPal

On another note, you probably ask yourself, “Who keeps records of my credit card details?”. Well, Anakena, for example, doesn’t. Every payment is made with your bank directly and they do not have access to your card details. For them, there is nothing safer that your own bank processing your personal banking needs.

Account Lock

Another important factor you should consider when choosing the right registrar for you is the option of locking your account. The top players in the registration business may not even offer this feature in their service, resulting in greater exposure of your site to “domain predators” and infringing on the safety elements that a registrar might promise. A lock on the account allows only the website owner to modify features, personal information, and even transfer domain(s) to another registrar/customer. This locked status will remain until the owner wishes to remove it. The only downside to this is that a registrar cannot modify illicit signups where a customer doesn’t include valid information. In the case of Anakena, for example, this information is screened upon registration and the company will contact the customer to request further information in order to complete the signup process. Not only is the company looking out for the interest of the customer but also the partnership it hopes to consolidate in the future.

Email notification

The leading registrar companies, and the vast majority of service providers online, have automated email notification systems set up that send you relevant news or updates to the website, your account interface, etc. However, there have been examples in the past where companies or individuals have not been informed instantly of technical aspects or modifications to the service they receive from the particular registrar. It may even be a question of days before they actually realise that something has been modified, caused by a failure to communicate effectively with their customers. But those companies who do, and devote paramount importance to keeping their clients informed are consolidating themselves in the market thanks to growing customer loyalty and a healthy increase in their customer base.

The Nursing Home Complaint Center Wants To Team Up With Personal Injury Law Firms To Stop Nursing Home Abuse & Medicare Fraud

The Nursing Home Complaint Center Wants To Team Up With Personal Injury Law Firms To Stop Nursing Home Abuse & Medicare Fraud

The Nursing Home Abuse Center intends to go after nursing homes, that abuse their patients, and wants to assist law firms that also have an interest in Medicare-Medicaid fraud, Class actions, and employee wage and hour issues. According to the group, "we want to align ourselves with larger personal injury law firms in specific cities, where we know nursing home abuse, Medicare or Medicaid fraud, and employee wage, and hour issues are wide spread, to stop these types of practices.." Personal Injury Law Firms, class action law firms, or employment law firms that might have an interest in this are welcome to call the group at 866-714-6466, or visit their web site at Http://NursingHomeComplaintCenter. Com.

Washington, DC (PRWEB) June 8, 2009

The Nursing Home Complaint Center has been created to be the premier advocacy group in the nation, for senior citizens suffering wrongful death, abuse and neglect. At the same time the Nursing Home Complaint Center will focus on Medicare-Medicaid fraud, class actions, and wage and hour investigations in most major US cities. The Nursing Home Complaint Center wants to team up with law firms in each US state, that have a personal injury practice, with a focus on elder abuse, class actions, and/or employee wage and hour issues. This is a year-long project, and there will be a modest fee involved, for listing the participating law firms on the site. For more information, interested law firms can call Americas Watchdog's Nursing Home Complaint Center anytime at 866-714-6466, or contact the group via its web site at Http://NursingHomeComplaintCenter. com.

So what types of issues is the group looking for? Americas Watchdog says, "once our legal team is in place, the Nursing Home Complaint Center will focus weekly press releases on elder abuse, Medicare or Medicaid fraud, Class Actions, or Wage and Hour investigations." As follows:
Nursing home neglect that involves wrongful death Nursing homes not providing patients with minimum time per day. Nursing homes over billing Medicare for testing that was never done. Nursing homes not changing patients. (the patient then gets septic infections and then they often die) Nursing-homes, or elder care firms that, instead of sending an actual nurse, or LPN, send a undocumented worker to spend the day with the patient. Nursing homes not paying overtime to their employees, or abiding by FLSA. Possible class issues related to standard of care, drug costs, testing schemes, etc. The group says, "This is all about protecting our elderly, the taxpayer, and the employee, all at the same time."

According to the Nursing Home Complaint Center, "These are but a few of the issues that we intend to go after, and expose. The great thing for the personal injury law firm, class action firm, or wage and hour firm, is we have experience doing every aspect of the investigation, we know exactly what we are looking for, and we have a great plan that should produce dramatic results for everyone involved."

According to the Nursing Home Complaint Center, "The ideal medium, to large law firm would specialize in, personal injury, with a practice emphasis on wrongful death, nursing home abuse, class action type issues, and/or wage and hour issues, etc. These types of lawyers will know exactly what we are talking about, they will understand the scope of the problem, and if they are in one of our target markets/states, they will understand exactly why we intend to have an insider campaign as part of this initiative." These type of law firms are welcome to call Americas Watchdog anytime at 866-714-6466, or contact the group via their web site at Http://NursingHomeComplaintCenter. com.
