Editors Note: There is a photo associated with this press release.

On Tuesday May 29, 2012, nogginPro Inc. will be holding a press conference at 11:00 a.m. at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto to introduce a new piece of protective headgear to the media and sports world. Confirmed speakers include Wendel Clark (former Toronto Maple Leaf), Dr. Glenn Copeland (Chief Medical Officer of nogginPro Inc. and Team Podiatrist of the Toronto Blue Jays), Nat Rea (President of the Toronto Nationals Hockey Club) and Kerry Goulet (Director of stopconcussions.com).

Endorsed by former Captain of the Toronto Maple Leafs, Wendel Clark, and former Major League Baseball player Shawn Green, a new advancement in headwear protection, the nogginâ¢, is a fitted skull cap designed and tested to reduce the impact of blows to the head when worn under a certified helmet. The nogginâ¢ is designed with strategically placed gel packs adhered to a stretchable, breathable fabric. With head injuries on the rise in hockey, football, baseball and other contact sports, the nogginâ¢ proves to be the start of a new trend in safety.

The motivation for Armando Pagliari to create the nogginâ¢ came from being a concerned parent, and was backed by having over 20 years of experience in sports therapy treating professional athletes in the National Hockey League, Canadian Football League and Major League Baseball.

The nogginâ¢ is the new "standard of protection to be worn under a certified helmet to maximize protection against direct blows to the head."

Dr. Glenn Copeland - Chief Medical Officer of nogginPro Inc. and Team Podiatrist of the Toronto Blue Jays

San Antonio Digital Creative Agency Wins Healthy Workplace Award

Thu, 24 May 2012 20:00:00 +0000

esd and associates Receives Gold-Level Recognition From the Mayor's Fitness Council

People expect major employee health and wellness benefits from high profile businesses. What comes as a surprise, however, is when smaller organizations do their part to enhance employee health and wellness. San Antonio advertising agency, esd and associates, the city's leading digital creative agency, has made waves recently with an employee health and wellness plan that sets a gold standard.

And on May 22, 2012, the 25-employee ad agency received the recognition of the City of San Antonio's San Antonio Business Group on Health's (SABGH) 2012 Healthy Workplace Recognition Program, receiving Gold Level status for a small worksite (1-200 employees).

For years now, San Antonio has been heralded as a metropolis of poor health. Inspired by Mayor Julian Castro and other local leaders, local organizations have begun to prioritize the city's health. SABGH's 2012 Healthy Workplace Recognition Program is a way to build, encourage and reward a culture of employer-supported health in San Antonio.

"Health has always been an important value at esd and associates," explained Erik Simpson, two-time Iron Man Finisher and creative director of esd and associates. "Being an active member of the Mayor's Fitness Council and working alongside organizations like the Bexar County Health Collaborative and San Antonio Sports has helped us to gain a real prospective on how problems like obesity impact our community."

"We were already doing so many health and wellness programs at esd, it seemed logical to just share our concepts with other businesses in the community."

For the past two years, esd and associates has developed an internal culture of fitness, health and wellness.

"We encourage our employees to do outside fitness activities like marathons, sports clinics and health seminars and then we do what we can to make participation easier by picking up the tab for the activity," said Christine Kleha, primary owner and CEO of esd and associates.

"A healthy workplace benefits both the individual and the organization. People are happier, have fewer sick days and keep the business' insurance costs low. We've had many employees who've lost weight, reduced their blood pressure and developed more active lifestyles thanks to our BMI incentive program and onsite workout boot camp."

SABGH rewards healthy, qualifying worksites with four available levels of recognition: honorable mention, bronze level, silver level and gold level status. "We are happy for the honor and stunned and grateful to learn that we qualified for the highest employer site status available," gushed Kleha.

esd and associates plans to develop additional health programs to encourage health at work. Among them are a massage/relaxation area and healthy snack program.

ABOUT ESD AND ASSOCIATES
esd and associates, San Antonio's leading digital creative agency, is a full-service advertising and communications firm. esd provides a full spectrum of advertising, design, public relations and web development services, including digital and traditional marketing campaigns.

Rhode Island Personal Injury Law Firm Bottaro Law Urges Boating Safety

Thu, 24 May 2012 20:00:00 +0000

As the warm weather arrives and many people begin to participate in recreational boating, Rhode Island personal injuries resulting from boating accidents occur more frequently.

AV-Rated Providence personal injury lawyer Mike Bottaro, founder of The Bottaro Law Firm, LLC, urges Rhode Islanders to stay safe on the water this season to avoid personal injuries from boating accidents. "We have over 400 miles of beautiful coastline here in Rhode Island. The Narragansett Bay is a true natural resource and great place to enjoy the outdoors through boating, diving, and fishing," explained Bottaro. "As a RI personal injury lawyer, I see the consequences of poor choices on the water, so at the beginning of the season this is a great time to remind ourselves of some basic safety measures."

The US Coast Guard Boating Safety Resource Center compiles yearly statistics on recreational boating accidents. Last year, there were over 4,500 boating accidents, resulting in greater than 700 deaths and approximately $50 million in property damage. Factors such as operator inattention and inexperience, improper lookout, excessive speed, and alcohol use were major contributors to boating accidents. Drowning caused most deaths resulting from boating accidents, and of those victims, more than 80 percent did not wear life jackets.

Boating accidents, like many causes of personal injury, are preventable. Boating is an activity that has the potential to harm many people if carried out irresponsibly. Therefore safety should be emphasized, as it could be the difference between life and death. May 19-25 is recognized by the National Safe Boating Council ("NSBC") as National Safe Boating week. Organizations like NSBC and the American Boating Association ("ABA") stress the issue of boating safety year-round and work to inform the public about how to responsibly enjoy this widely popular recreational activity.

These organizations encourage everyone to take the issue of boating safety seriously. New and experienced boaters alike should seek out the appropriate kind and amount of training for the type of boating they will be doing. The ABA urges people to "BESAFE" by knowing their:

Boat
Equipment
Safety devices and PFDs
Alcohol limits
First aid and emergency procedures and
Environment (area and weather)

Adhering to simple guidelines such as these can help save lives and promote safe waterways for all boaters to enjoy.

About Bottaro Law, LLC
Bottaro Law's Rhode Island personal injury lawyers serve clients throughout Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts. The firm's practice areas include general personal injury, car accidents, motorcycle accidents, medical malpractice and more.

Tim Tebow Takes to the Turf at Qualcomm Stadium This Father's Day

Thu, 24 May 2012 19:30:00 +0000

Treat Dad to an Inspirational and Encouraging Morning With Tim Tebow and Dr. David Jeremiah, Senior Pastor of Shadow Mountain Community Church, at Qualcomm Stadium

New York Jets quarterback Tim Tebow, one of the most dynamic players in the National Football League and a follower of Christ known for sharing his faith openly and unabashedly, will join Dr. David Jeremiah, the senior pastor of Shadow Mountain Community Church, for a very special event Father's Day morning at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, the church has announced.

"Father's Day 2012 - Encouraging Men To Live, Love & Lead" presented by Shadow Mountain Community Church is scheduled to kick off at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, June 17. Tebow, who is known as much for his late-game heroics as his open professions of his Christian faith, will share his story and encourage men young and old to live their lives in faith, love those around them and lead courageously.

"As a football player, Tim Tebow is the real deal, a gifted athlete who is capable of taking over a game at any moment," said Dr. Jeremiah. "But far more importantly, at the age of 24 he is also the kind of man any young boy would do well to emulate. Tim recognizes that the real game changer is Jesus Christ, and he passionately lives out his faith every day, both publically and privately. Tim gives Christ the glory and honor at every turn and he embraces the label 'role model' in this time when most athletes shun the title."

Worship will be provided by nationally renowned Christian recording artist Charles Billingsley, and ESPN Senior NFL Analyst Chris Mortensen is also expected to be in attendance.

In just two years, Tebow has established himself as one of the most high-impact players in the National Football League. Before being traded to the Jets earlier this year, he spent his first two NFL seasons with the Denver Broncos, starting the final three games of his rookie season in 2010 and the last 11 of the 2011 season. After taking over the team in week six, he led the Broncos to five dramatic come-from-behind victories, including three in overtime, and their first playoff appearance since 2005.

Prior to his selection in the first round of the 2010 NFL draft by the Denver Broncos, Tebow was a standout quarterback at the University of Florida, where he led the Gators to two national championships (2006 and 2008), became the only sophomore and the only homeschooler to win the Heisman Trophy (2007), and received the James E. Sullivan Award as the nation's most outstanding amateur athlete in any sport.

The event is free, including parking, and open to the public. The Qualcomm Stadium parking lot and stadium gates open at 8:00 a.m. and individuals and small groups are encouraged to tailgate prior to and after the event.

For more information visit the Shadow Mountain Community Church Web site at www.shadowmountain.org or call the church's event hotline at 619.590.2100.

About Shadow Mountain Community Church

Shadow Mountain Community Church is an evangelical Christian church in El Cajon, California, a suburb of San Diego. Since its founding in 1909, Shadow Mountain has grown to be one of the largest churches in California. Dr. David Jeremiah has served as senior pastor since 1981, when he succeeded noted author Tim LaHaye.

GiftBasket4Kids Reveals Common Mistakes to Avoid with a Birthday Gifts for Kids

Thu, 24 May 2012 19:18:21 +0000

05/15/2012 (press release: GiftBasket4Kids) // Canoga Park, CA, USA // GiftBasket4Kids

People tend to get extremely confused when it comes to choosing birthday gifts for kids. From coming up with an idea for party favors for kids, to selecting a nice birthday theme, planning birthdays has become ever more complicated today. In this aspect, GiftBasket4Kids.com brilliantly takes the burden off the parent’s and organizer’s shoulders by presenting wonderful gift basket ideas for kids and pre-teens.

As a part of their service, the website regularly shares information, news, reviews and tips regarding ideas related to birthday gift for kids and party favors for kids. Recently, the website shared a very informative and interesting article in this aspect. The article highlights more than one common birthday gift for kids that can actually create conflict and problems.

According to a spokesperson for GiftBasket4Kids.com, “We offer plenty of ideas for party favors for kids and birthday gifts for kids, but we do not want to restrict the choice and freedom of our customers. However, we feel it is extremely important to keep in mind if the gift is appropriate, suitable and most importantly desirable for the kid or not.”

Talking about the very first mistake to avoid in this regard, the spokesperson warned against choosing pets and animals as a birthday gifts for kids. The reason why they are inappropriate for kids is because most kids are not able to properly take care of them. Due to their annoying behavior, they might end up hurting the animal or themselves. Moreover, in case of a pet’s demise, the child has to go through an emotionally disturbing and turbulent time.

Another piece of advice coming from GiftBasket4Kids.com is to avoid any kind of gift that is in any way inappropriate for the child’s age. “An age inappropriate gift is a broad term,” adds the spokesperson, “Such gifts can be either too boring or mature like books, or may affect their behavior in a negative manner like violent video games.”

The article suggests that it is best to stay away from such birthday gifts for kids, which are fundamentally unsafe and harmful. While this includes darts and BB guns, skateboards and rollerblades may also be counted in the same category. However, sport equipment, knowing that parents would love to supervise their kids while playing, is a nice birthday gift idea with no exception of age and gender.

GiftBasket4Kids shares numerous informative articles on a regular basis. The website provides great help and information related to gift baskets and gift ideas.

ScholarShare, California's 529 college savings program, announces that they will host their first ever sweepstakes on Twitter, giving all qualified entries the chance to win a $1,529 ScholarShare account for future college costs. There will also be two $529 accounts available to use for a child's college future. Any California resident, 18 years and over, with a Social Security Number or Tax Payer ID number, can enter the sweepstakes through the popular social media site. The winners will be able to start a brand new college savings account or contribute to an existing account. The #CA529Day sweepstakes will begin on May 8 and run through May 28, with the winners announced on May 29, 2012, 529 Day.

May 29 was declared 529 Day to help bring attention to the fact that saving for college is one of the most significant things families can do for the children in their lives. With rising college tuition costs, those who begin putting away money early and save, over time, could make their college savings add up to a significant amount. Since establishing a college fund early in life is so important, California families are encouraged to consider opening a ScholarShare 529 Savings Account for a special child in their life.

To enter the sweepstakes, California parents can log on to their Twitter account and tweet at ScholarShare's official account (@ScholarShare529) with their child's dream school and the hashtag #CA529Day. All qualified applicants must follow the @ScholarShare529 account to be eligible to win. One winning account will be selected at random to win a $1,529 contribution to be used to start a new ScholarShare 529 College Savings Plan or contribute to an existing ScholarShare account. A t-shirt of their selected dream school will also be provided. Two other winners will also be selected at random to receive a $529 account and t-shirt.
