RadSciences Group Announces Release of 2008 Radiology Compensation Review

RadSciences Group Announces Release of 2008 Radiology Compensation Review

RadSciences Group is releasing the results of the most recent Radiology Compensation Review that focuses on real-time wage changes and staffing trends that have affected radiology groups and hospitals over the past year, including their recruitment and retention efforts. The Compensation Review is a free resource that provides a summary of current data and market trends in all modalities of radiology.

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) February 22, 2008

2008 Radiology Compensation Review -- The latest figures show a continued market demand for Sonographers, Vascular Sonographers, Cardiac Sonographers and Interventional Technologists. The number of General, Vascular and Cardiac Sonographer searches conducted by RadSciences Group increased from 47.9 percent of overall searches in 2006 to 58.5 percent in 2007.

The U. S. Department of Labor projects the need for an additional 23,000 Ultrasound Technologists by 2014. The aging "baby boomer" population and the advancement in imaging technology will likely drive the demand for imaging procedures to nearly half a billion outpatients and 100 million inpatient scans by 2008 according to recent research released by independent healthcare research firms. Considering the nation's aging population -- and looming healthcare staffing crisis, as reported by USA Today -- healthcare administrators must take heed to improve retention and increase recruiting efforts. There is an increasing need for hospitals to fill urgent radiology department needs and retain existing providers.

RadSciences Group works with healthcare leaders to improve retention and talent selection by specializing in providing organizational development programs and recruitment services to hospitals throughout the country. By partnering with clients, RadSciences Group is able to provide experienced Allied Health Professionals with the best information available and help healthcare organizations everywhere to secure the talent necessary to achieve proper staffing ratios.

Mission Statement: At RadSciences Group, our mission is to be a recognized leader in talent selection, leadership development and recruitment within hospitals and medical imaging organizations. More than just a professional search firm, RadSciences Group desires to be a resource and partner to healthcare leaders who believe that talent selection is more than just education and credentials, but also the science of understanding an individual's beliefs, motivators and values.

ACF Car Finance Report UK Car Sales Up Despite Credit Crunch

ACF Car Finance Report UK Car Sales Up Despite Credit Crunch

UK car sales rose in September, showing that despite the credit crunch, the car industry is still healthy, according to ACF Car Finance.

(PRWEB) November 7, 2007

The much publicised "credit crunch" which has seen interest rates rise sharply this year has not scared off UK car buyers, says ACF Car Finance.

The UK market came in at 419,000 units (+1.3%) in September, which is thought to have been spurred on by the new registration plate which pushed private retail sales up by 1.5%. The UK market performed better than was expected, despite fears of a slowing economy and the increased cost of borrowing money.

A spokesman for ACF Car Finance (http://www. acfcarfinance. co. uk/ (http://www. acfcarfinance. co. uk/)) said:

"Despite predictions that the car sales would fall in light of the recent credit crunch, we have in fact seen a small increase in the market. It's impossible to know what will happen over the next few months, and yes, car credit (http://www. acfcarfinance. co. uk/car-credit/ (http://www. acfcarfinance. co. uk/car-credit/)) may be affected along with other forms of borrowing, but we're hopeful that the car retail industry will continue to prosper".

Car sales and related markets such as car finance (http://www. acfcarfinance. co. uk/ (http://www. acfcarfinance. co. uk/)) have seen steady growth in Eastern Europe and Asia, in line with the rapidly developing economies of these areas.

Poland has seen growth of 19.6% compared with last year; Indonesia has seen a rise of 20% and Russia claims to have experienced a massive rise of 50% in September. Similar stories are being reported in China, Vietnam and Korea. Increased infrastructures and a rise in the standard of living and more disposable income, are leading to a greater number of people being able to afford to buy a car (http://www. acfcarfinance. co. uk/used-cars/makes-model/ (http://www. acfcarfinance. co. uk/used-cars/makes-model/)).

About ACF Car Finance

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 23, 2003—Innovative Ideas International, Ltd., today announced the launch of Advertising Revenue Service (ARS), its new pay-for-performance affiliate marketing network. The launch marks the opening of the network to all advertisers and publishers.

The ARS network (http://www. advertisingrevenueservice. com (http://www. advertisingrevenueservice. com)), comprised of more than 5,000 high-performing affiliates who operate websites that generate 70 million-plus unique visitors a month, and is now one of the largest affiliate programs in the world.

Founded in 1996, The ARS success story, according to Rebecca Deforest, president and CEO, is due to the loyalty of its publishers.

“Simply put, our webmasters call the shots,” Deforest said. “When our affiliates talk, we listen. We are all about giving our webmasters the right tools to grow their business and make money.”

The company expects to do the same for advertisers who can now add their products to the ARS system.

“The ARS system is robust and scalable and is driven by the demands of advertisers and merchants who want real results from their e-commerce efforts,” said Matt Borgman, vice president of ARS. “We expect our advertising clients to settle for nothing less than results and profits.”

The ARS Media Services Team works with network publishers to ensure those advertisersÂ’ offers are only delivered to prospects who take action.

“Our advertisers want sales, not eyeballs,” said John Valigorsky, vice president of customer service and marketing. “Instead of paying for impressions, they pay for results. We ask them, for example, how many sales, leads, or downloads they want, and then we turn on our network and fulfill it.”

The ARS tracking system is second-to-none, allowing advertisers and publishers to check their statistics in real time. To ensure the integrity of the network, ARS operates comprehensive fraud control. Publishers are rewarded with weekly pay-outs, free health insurance, and an industry leading loyalty program.

Euro Puppy Goes East; European Champion-line Puppies for Sale in Dubai

Euro Puppy Goes East; European Champion-line Puppies for Sale in Dubai

Euro Puppy offers tailor-made services whereby dog-lovers are helped in finding the best European puppies and dogs of their choice. The puppies being shipped to Dubai are healthy, beautiful and have an exceptional pedigree. A lifetime guarantee is given for each puppy that is purchased.

Budapest, Hungary (PRWEB) December 13, 2007

Euro Puppy, an international company that offers only the highest quality of purebred puppies to satisfied customers from over 50 countries, has decided to expand further -- the Middle East, to be precisely correct. Over the last few years, there has been a significant increase in customers who visited Euro Puppy from the Middle-East.

More and more pet lovers are browsing the "puppies for sale" ads in Dubai. The concept behind Euro Puppy will be perpetuated further to suit the needs of dog-lovers living in the Middle-East. A very large percentage of the population of the United Arab Emirates is made up of expatriates and there have always been extraordinary possibilities to drill for black gold. Euro Puppy has tried it themselves, and surfaced with more puppy love than before. There are only a few pet stores available in Dubai to cater for the needs of the expatriate community. However, the need for canine companionship is still very much felt.

Euro Puppy offers tailor-made services whereby dog-lovers are helped in finding the best European puppies and dogs of their choice. Euro Puppy now offers puppies for sale in Dubai as well. The puppies being shipped to Dubai are healthy, beautiful and have an exceptional pedigree. A lifetime guarantee is given for each puppy that is purchased.

There is a strict quality assurance program to validate all breeders and a staff veterinarian verifies the health of all the puppies before they are safely shipped to their new homes. Euro Puppy is more than just about selling dogs. The tiresome procedure of finding and interviewing the right breeders is side-stepped.

Euro Puppy goes straight to the breeders, and thus the whole procedure of buying a puppy is more humane. Puppies are not taken away from their mothers too early, as is often the case with puppies that are placed in pet stores. They are healthy and of top quality. All the regulations and shipping of puppies and dogs to Dubai is taken care of by the dedicated team of dog lovers at Euro Puppy. All that is left is to take home the bundle of joy and to shower it with praise and love. So while the Pet Shop Boys Go West, Euro Puppy has decided to Go East...all the while remaining true to their calling of building families.

About Euro Puppy
Euro Puppy is widely recognized as the most reputable source of pure-bred puppies and dogs from the champion-lines of Europe. A dedicated team of dog-lovers, Euro Puppy is dedicated to bringing only high quality, healthy and well-bred puppies to its customers around the globe and now to the Middle East as well. With customers on five continents, Euro Puppy has built solid relationships with respectable breeders of exceptional lines to earn them the reputation as a premier provider of top breeds.

SAT Corporation and PDC Partner to Lower Cost of EPA Compliance for Refining and Petrochemical Industries

SAT Corporation and PDC Partner to Lower Cost of EPA Compliance for Refining and Petrochemical Industries

SAT and PDC join technologies to offer a solution to the rising costs of regulatory compliance in the refining and petrochemical industries.

(PRWEB) September 7, 2002

HOUSTON - (September 9, 2002) SAT Corporation, the leader in providing integrated field force automation solutions to process manufacturing industries, and Process Data Control Corporation (PDC), providers of regulatory compliance systems and services, announced today that they have entered into a business and technical alliance to help process-intensive industries, including refining and petrochemical, combat the increasing costs of regulatory compliance for Title V of the Clean Air Act and other Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reporting requirements.

¡§According to an EPA hearing in Chicago on November 9, 2001 regarding the Proposed Establishment of Electronic Reporting and Electronics Records Rule of Title V, the EPA¡¦s conservative estimate amounted to the refining and petrochemical industry incurring at least $68 billion to the 1.7 million facilities required to report recordkeeping just to meet upgrade and maintenance costs of the recordkeeping section of the Title V regulation. Our alliance with SAT allows our technologies to combine for a low-cost, sustainable solution that provides seamless EPA compliance from data collection to back-end auto-reporting to regulatory agencies,¡¨ PDC vice president, Paul Nix, said.

As companies have been challenged to demonstrate compliance with current regulations, SAT and PDC are helping companies meet the challenge by leveraging their expertise in reliability analysis, human workflow management and compliance assurance. SAT¡¦s IntelaTrac„µ, the company¡¦s premier mobile computing software, helps control the scheduling, completion and reporting of various manual inspections related to compliance with EPA regulations may now be integrated with PDC¡¦s Compliance Assurance System (COMPASS) to furnish critical regulatory information to ensure that mobile computing systems collect and store compliance data required by applicable rules and permits.

Don Frieden, SAT¡¦s chief executive officer, stated, ¡§The SAT-PDC alliance will be valuable to plant management interested in reducing cost of compliance and affecting positive change on best practices. Since the ultimate penalties for failure to comply with regulations may lead to loss of operations license, those in the process manufacturing industry realize the need to have a cost effective process from which they can confidently attest to the accurate collection, reporting, and monitoring of EPA required data at their facilities.¡¨

Today, SAT and PDC are jointly presenting a white paper, ¡§Use of IntelaTrac Software on Mobile, Handheld Computers to Manage Compliance and Auditing of Different EPA Protocols Included Within Title V and Other Regulatory Agencies,¡¨ at the afternoon poster session of the National Petrochemical & Refiners Association¡¦s (NPRA) Environmental Conference in New Orleans. The NPRA Environmental Conference is focused on Title V compliance and certification.

Atlanta Skydiving Center Supports the Community, Offering Young People Healthy Lifestyle Choices to Promote Positive Youth Development

Atlanta Skydiving Center Supports the Community, Offering Young People Healthy Lifestyle Choices to Promote Positive Youth Development

Located near Atlanta, GA, Atlanta Skydiving Center, one of the nation’s premier skydiving centers, supports the community by offering young people healthy activity options to promote positive development.

Smyrna, GA (PRWEB) March 1, 2006

Located near Atlanta, GA, in Cedartown, GA, Atlanta Skydiving Center is one of the nation’s premier skydiving centers. Recently, Atlanta Skydiving Center focused its attention on the community’s young people, offering them healthy activities to promote positive youth development.

On February 9, Atlanta Skydiving Center participated in a “Lunch and Learn” held at Wheeler High School, in Marietta, GA. Over 200 high school students enjoyed brown bag lunches while listening to various presenters discuss healthy activities for them to enjoy. The Lunch and Learn was designed to support the community’s young people by urging them to adopt healthy lifestyles rather than destructive ones.

Of the various activities presented, the skydiving segment, delivered by skydiving coach, Dan McAllister, of Atlanta Skydiving Center, appeared to garner the most interest.

During a video presentation showcasing young people skydiving at Atlanta Skydiving Center, the students’ eyes were glued to the projection screen. The Wheeler High School students sat quietly and spellbound as the young people in the video leapt out of a plane, freefalling through the fathomless sky.

After the video, McAllister discussed the enthralling world of skydiving. McAllister tapped his wealth of knowledge, garnered from almost 1,000 jumps, to paint a verbal portrait of skydiving enthusiasts.

McAllister ended his presentation by fielding the eager students’ questions.

The students inquired about such items as:

What happens if you jump out of a plane and faint before you open your parachute? (Answer: Today, due to advanced technology in the sport of skydiving, if a skydiver does not open his or her main parachute, the reserve chute will automatically deploy at 1,000 feet.)

How fast does a person fall through the air before opening the parachute? (Answer: Around 125 miles an hour)

Do people ever die when skydiving? (Answer: Yes, but a person’s chances of being hit by lightning and bitten by a shark at the same time are greater than the chance of dying while skydiving.)

The Adolescent Health and Youth Development Center, the YMCA of East Cobb County, and Hands on Atlanta also presented positive lifestyle activities at the “Lunch and Learn.”

In addition to being a leader in the skydiving industry, Atlanta Skydiving Center is also committed to supporting the community. Atlanta Skydiving Center appreciates the opportunity to provide young people with positive lifestyle choices and will continue supporting the community’s young people in the future.

Whole Food Farmacy demonstrates Healthy Diet Information who's Time has come!

(PRWEB) September 19, 2003

Great American, The Wholefood Farmacy is an idea whose time has come. On the edge of an industry whose market share is almost a billion dollars a day, Great American, The Wholefood Farmacy combines the best of the golden treasures of a forgotten age-old wisdom with todayÂ’s need for health and weight loss, beauty, and vitality.

This is the message of Great American, The Wholefood Farmacy. We believe it is time for people to get the truth about health, weight loss, and disease prevention and also give people the products, education and support they need to take control, lose the weight on their own and do so in a safe and healthy manner.

The truth about weight loss and disease prevention is this. There is no magical pill or concoction, medical procedure or fast fix that is safe or healthy. According to all the major health organizations, American Heart Association, American Diabetes Association, Mayo Clinic, Harvard School of Medicine, National Cancer Society, Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine and others say the following:

To lose weight you need to eat a healthy whole foods diet which is abundant in fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains, legumes, walk 30 minutes a day at least 3 times a week, and drink 8 to 12 glasses of water a day. You should also reduce your consumption of saturated fat, processed sugar, sodas, flour, and limit meats to 3 ounces a day.

Management at the major weight loss companies estimates that 70% of dieting attempts are of the self-help type, but they are usually not effective. In fact, we seem to be in the middle of another do-it-yourself dieting cycle right now. A lot more dieters are using appetite suppressants and weight loss products sold by multi-level marketers such as Metabolife and Herbalife than in past years. Some infomercials have been hot as well, but there is a short life cycle for products and programs sold by them.

According to the NIH and the major health organizations, obesity is an epidemic in the U. S. The most alarming fact is that 27% of all children in the U. S. are overweight. Studies also show that these children will most likely transition into adulthood with this affliction and are more likely to contract type 2 diabetes as well as other obesity related diseases.

Over the last 30 years, we have learned that pills and capsules and herbal supplements do not work. These products are ruining peopleÂ’s lives. Consumers are frustrated and they just want to know the truth. They want to know what is the real answer. What is the healthiest and safest way to lose weight and prevent disease and cancer.

The truth about weight loss and disease prevention is this. There is no magical pill or concoction, medical procedure or fast fix that is safe or healthy.

Bethlehem, PA (PRWEB) May 20, 2007

Glemser Technologies, a Pennsylvania-based pharmaceutical software and services company, today revealed plans for xmContentTM, its Documentum-based structured content authoring platform designed to manage controlled content in XML format.

With the large number of legacy document management systems currently in place at many life sciences companies, xmContent is an ideal platform for document management upgrade and consolidation initiatives as companies seek to reduce their portfolio of supported applications, even as they embrace the use of new XML technologies. xmContent is a comprehensive, configurable application environment for managing controlled content in a variety of formats, including XML, MS Word, PDF and others.

XmContent enables companies to manage XML-based content at the document level or as re-usable content fragments that can be assembled into multiple documents. Since regulatory content is commonly shared across multiple documents, the componentization and re-use of content provides significant operational efficiencies.

XmContent is built on Documentum 5.3 using the Webtop interface and supports a variety of XML editors, including Arbortext Editor (formerly Epic Editor) from PTC and Xpress Author from In. vision. xmContent includes comprehensive 21 CFR Part 11 support, including audit trails and eSignatures. It can be configured for the effective management of manufacturing, clinical, marketing, labeling and other types of other controlled content.

According to Ray Glemser, the President of Glemser Technologies, "xmContent is the logical next offering in Glemser's product development roadmap. Our first packaged solution, xmLabeling®, is optimized for the specific tasks associated with global eLabeling business processes and the submission of labeling content in SPL and PIM formats. xmContent is a general-purpose application that addresses the requirements for managing any type of controlled content in XML format. XML enables companies to focus their efforts on content development, not on low-value content-formatting activities. xmLabeling and xmContent share a common architecture. Our vision is to provide a solution to the evolving needs of pharmaceutical companies for a single architecture to manage structured content in any format."

A 20-year old firm, Glemser focuses exclusively on the life sciences market. Today, Glemser is adding software applications and solution frameworks to its portfolio of service offerings to provide complete solutions to its clients with reduced risk, reduced total cost, and increased value.

G&F Financial Group Partners with BC Firm to Ease the Bite of Costly Dental Bills

G&F Financial Group Partners with BC Firm to Ease the Bite of Costly Dental Bills

50 Per Cent Avoid Dental Treatment - Increasing Dental Costs One of the Reasons

Vancouver (PRWEB) October 15, 2010

G&F Financial Group, a Lower Mainland based credit union, has partnered with PatientLink Healthcare Plans, a California and B. C. based health care firm, to help British Columbians manage the increasing costs of dental care.

Under the partnership, PatientLink and G&F Financial Group are now providing a B. C. based financing program to benefit both dentists and their patients. Dentists are guaranteed immediate payment, while patients get quick financing to pay for expensive dental procedures that may not be covered by insurance due to policy restrictions and limitations.

The only dental financing program designed and managed by dentists in Canada, the PatientLink Plan provides loans up to $50,000 and includes fast credit approvals and low fixed interest rates starting at 9.9 per cent. The plan covers all procedures over $2,500 such as orthodontic and cosmetic work, dentures, root canals and dental implants. Patients are able to pay over a period ranging from six months to fix years and can pay off the loan at any time without penalty.

Dr. Edward Lowe, a PatientLink partner who heads the West End Dental Centre in Vancouver notes, "Since the time we launched the program back in 2000, dramatic advances in dental technology have continued to drive up the cost of delivering dental care, while basic dental insurance has not kept pace."

PatientLink was started ten years ago by a group of Vancouver dentists who were surprised to discover that twenty per cent of their patients were not getting the dental procedures they needed due to money concerns. "We look forward to continuing to expand our program with a local community focused financial partner like G&F and in combining our resources to assist B. C. patients in accessing the treatment they need and want," says Dr. Doug Liu, a PatientLink founding partner and partner at Broadway Station Dental Centre.

Market research gathered by PatientLink shows that another 30 per cent don't even visit the dentist - cost being one of the reasons. "In a tough economy, expensive dental procedures can fall low on the priority list pretty quickly. It's common for patients to use high interest loans or credit cards to pay dental bills or avoid the dentist altogether, which can have greater health implications," Dr. Lowe says.

PatientLink also benefits dentists who may have trouble collecting for procedures. Many dentists will accept post-dated cheques in lieu of insurance coverage, which can turn into an administrative nightmare and financial liability. "Statics show that five per cent of dentists' invoices never get paid," Dr. Lowe says. "Most dentists don't have the time or resources for aggressive credit collections. This not only compromises their practice, but the patients themselves, who may be reluctant to return for follow up or future treatment."

The partnership will see G&F Financial Group provide patient financing to PatientLink clients. Credit applications are reviewed immediately with local customer support provided by G&F Financial Group. "Consumers are increasingly turning to the convenience of point of service financing alternatives and we are excited to partner with PatientLink to provide this unique loan solution" says Richard Davies, Chief Executive Officer of G&F.

G&F Financial Group is a Burnaby based credit union with 12 branches throughout Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, New Westminster, Port Coquitlam and Richmond. Founded in 1940, G&F Financial Group is guided by a commitment to corporate social responsibility and to improving the quality of life in the communities where we live and work.

PatientLink Healthcare Plans Inc. is a health care services company that provides dental and medical value-fee plans and health care financial services to thousands of consumers and employers across Canada and the United States. The PatientLink offering is a combination of consumer and employer programs offering patients access to quality health care services both on a direct customer representative base or online via the http://www. patientlinkfinance. com website.

Smart Fabrics and Interactive Textiles Market Projected to Reach $1.31 Billion by 2012, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

Driven by growing interest from the medical, consumer and military sectors, the global market for smart fabrics and interactive textiles is projected to reach a value of US$1.31 billion by 2012.

San Jose, CA (PRWEB) March 3, 2008

The market for smart fabric and interactive textile technologies, although in embryonic stages, is poised for tremendous growth. Despite slow adoption rates in several markets, demand for SFIT technology is expected to escalate driven by emergence of advanced products and new application areas with significant potential. The market witnessed substantial growth in the past few years owing to the product's interactive properties and unique features. Biophysical monitoring solutions and phase change materials are expected to be major growth sectors in the future. The level of seamless integration between electronics and fabrics will drive the adoption of electro-active smart fabrics in future applications. Growth will be propelled by niche but lucrative applications in the military, consumer, medical, and industrial markets where the need for SFIT-enabled products is high.

The global landscape is dominated by the United States, which is characterized by the presence of numerous companies and research organizations engaged in research, development, and manufacture of these specialized products. United States is the single largest market for smart fabrics and interactive textiles (http://www. strategyr. com/Smart_Fabrics_and_Interactive_Textiles_Market_Report. asp) worldwide. The market is forecast to be about US$193 million in 2008 as stated by Global Industry Analysts, Inc. Consumer products is the largest end-market with an estimated 50% share in 2007. Biomedical and military segments are projected to witness tremendous growth through 2012. Non-US markets are projected to record growth with a compounded annual rate exceeding 12% through 2012.

Competition in the sector is relatively low due to the highly diverse nature of the technology. Several players from various industries dot the competitive landscape - ranging from performance clothing manufacturers, textile component makers, electronic component manufacturers, electronic OEMs and system integrators to niche fabric and garment manufacturers. Market participants include Du Pont, Peratech Limited, Foster-Miller, Gorix, Intelligent Clothing, Interactive Wear AG, International Fashion Machines, Kimberly-Clark Health Care, Marktek Inc, Milliken & Company, Noble Biomaterials, Outlast Technologies Inc, Royal Philips Electronics, Schoeller Textiles, Sensatex, Smartex, Softswitch, Textronics, Toray Industries, VivoMetrics and others.

Holistic Primary Care now Available in Washington D. C. at NIHA

National Integrated Health Associates (NIHA), announced that it has expanded its integrative medicine practice to include Holistic Primary Care.

Washington, DC (Vocus) June 30, 2010

National Integrated Health Associates (NIHA) announced the expansion of the Washington D. C. integrative medical and dental center to include Holistic Primary Care. The expansion is in response to a recent patient survey, where 75% of respondents would prefer "a primary care provider with a holistic approach." The holistic primary care model offers traditional primary care but also incorporates the best of complementary and alternative therapies to help a patient achieve optimum wellness, not just freedom from disease.

The addition of Holistic Primary Care is in response to patient requests and a high level of interest from the recent patient survey. In addition, in a recent Washington Post article 'Having health insurance doesn't ensure it will be easy to find a doctor' by Ruth Samuelson, Ms. Samuelson highlights the difficulties in finding a primary care physician in the Washington D. C. area due to the shortage of primary care physicians. The addition of Holistic Primary Care to the services offered at NIHA will more fully serve patients in the Washington D. C. region with coordinated care in one comprehensive medical and dental center.

Tracy Freeman, M. D.and Cathlene Scoblionko, N. P. comprise the Holistic Primary Care team. They will partner with and guide patients to achieve their health goals for wellness, prevention of illness, chronic disease management, nutrition and lifestyle.

New Code for Pools, Spas and Hot Tubs to Focus on Safety

The International Code Council (ICC) and the Association of Pool & Spa Professionals (APSP) announced that they will collaborate on a comprehensive pool and spa code for release in 2012. The new code will comprise the most-current thinking on pool and spa safety, energy efficiency and best practices. It will be the only code that addresses all types of pools, spas and hot tubs — both public and residential — as well as aquatic recreation facilities.

(Vocus) August 18, 2010

The International Code Council (ICC) and the Association of Pool & Spa Professionals (APSP) announced that they will collaborate on a comprehensive pool and spa code for release in 2012. The new code will comprise the most-current thinking on pool and spa safety, energy efficiency and best practices. It will be the only code that addresses all types of pools, spas and hot tubs — both public and residential — as well as aquatic recreation facilities.

“The ICC develops codes that focus on keeping people safe where they live, work and play,” said Jay Peters, Code Council Plumbing, Mechanical and Fuel Gas Group (PMG) Executive Director. “This new pool and spa code in particular will impact safety as soon as it is put into use because it will become part of codes that are already adopted in 50 states.”

This landmark code will draw on APSP’s ANSI-approved American National Standards for pools, spas, hot tubs and other recreational water along with ICC’s expertise in building-safety codes, fire-prevention codes and energy-efficiency codes for residential and commercial construction. The provisions of the code will increase consistency in pool and spa construction, maintenance and operation across the country and internationally.

“Finally, builders, manufacturers and code officials will have a uniform reference wherever the ICC codes are in use,” said Carvin DiGiovanni, Senior Director of Technical and Standards for APSP. “We are looking forward to getting started on the development of what promises to be the most comprehensive pool and spa code possible.”

The Association of Pool & Spa Professionals is the largest international trade association representing the swimming pool, spa and hot tub industry. APSP’s mission is promoting consumer safety and enhancing the business success of its members. Members adhere to a code of business ethics and share a commitment to public health and safety in the use of pools, spas and hot tubs. APSP member companies include manufacturers, distributors, manufacturers' agents, designers, builders, installers, retailers, and service professionals. For more information visit www. APSP. org.

Veterinary Practice Marketing Program by TR Cutler, Inc. Identifies Best Marketing Opportunity Areas: Detroit Suburbs

(PRWEB) September 7, 2004

TR Cutler, president of the proprietary TR Cutler, Inc. Veterinary Practice Marketing program, just two years old, announced that two hundred veterinary practices are now using the variable data program which provides specific reminders to pet owners with 4 color photographs of their breed of dog or cat every month.

Cutler noted, “We are thrilled that so many veterinary practices that started with the three month trial have now extended to a year long program. Our demographic pet ownership research confirms that veterinarians in the Detroit suburbs (from Southfield to Rochester) will be among the best served by this program” The average practice sees 212% revenue growth by using the program.

No other veterinary marketing program has come close to the extraordinary results of this program. Cutler concluded that pet owners want to see a picture of their breed based on the near fanatically devotion to the pet owners breed dedication. According to Cutler, “When we show people of picture of their family member, it makes all the difference in the world. If they didn’t know about allergy-testing or a senior screening, these reminders make all the difference in the world in driving increased revenue for veterinarians.”

Cutler who edited a pet magazine and produced a pet television show before developing this key marketing outreach program in 2002, suggested that pet owners simply have to be informed what healthcare options are available for their pets to live long and healthy lives.

Starlight Support Supreme all Foam Crib Mattress Chosen as our Thumbs Up - Review of the Month at Family Review Center

Starlight Support Supreme all Foam Crib Mattress Chosen as our Thumbs Up - Review of the Month at Family Review Center

Family Review Center reviews products that families need and enjoy. Need a product review? Visit us today to request yours free! www. familyreview. org

(PRWEB) March 5, 2005

I recently reviewed the Starlight Support Supreme All Foam Crib Mattress, from Moonlight Slumber. I found it to be by far the greatest I have seen in the crib mattress line.

Our babies need as much or more support in a mattress than we as adults do, because their bones are very soft and pliable for the first stages. Those delicate bones need to have the support to firm up properly. The Starlight Support Supreme All Foam Crib Mattress, from Moonlight Slumber meets this need in a manner you cannot beat.

Designed by a mother, who was concerned with the health, safety and comfort of her infants, she has developed this support mattress that is a premium quality crib mattress for the most discerning of parents.

The Starlight Support Supreme Crib Mattress offers two levels of firmness. Turning it over is all it takes to adjust it to your baby's needs. There is an extra firm side for your infant. Then as your baby grows older (9+ months), you simply turn the mattress over and have an ultra supportive, yet ultra comfortable layer of memory foam over the firm mattress.

The memory foam is known as Viscoelastic foam, originally created by NASA. You have most likely heard of this being offered in adult mattresses as of late. It has been the desire of many adults and now can be the delight of infants as well. Viscoelastic foam conforms to the childÂ’s body, and supports their growing bones and joints, keeping their spine in perfect alignment.

I like the shape and size of this mattress. It has solid squared corners instead of the rounded ones usually found in a crib mattress. It is also the perfect size to be snug in place on all four sides. This makes for a perfect fit within the crib, not leaving open areas for things to fall through and makes it that much safer for baby. Still easy to lift for changing sheets, etc. but snug enough one has no worries.

Another great feature is that it's completely antimicrobial and has been treated on the inside as well as the outside, to eliminate the worry of bacteria growth for the life of the mattress.

It offers welded seams which means there are no needle holes in the mattress, preventing dust mites and germs from entering. Now there will be no need to say "Don't let the bed bugs bite", because there will be no bed bugs (dust mites) to be concerned with.

The premium four-way stretch ticking eliminates the need for a mattress cover, which also attract dust mites. This feature also keeps it stain resistant, waterproof, and completely antiallergenic, antimicrobial, and hypoallergenic. Simply wipe it clean with a damp sponge or cloth and it will be as good as new. Last but not least it makes it crack resistant, so it wears well instead of wearing out and helps the mattress to warm under the baby, making for a warm and cuddly nights sleep.

The Starlight Support Supreme Mattress has an internal Fire Barrier which makes it resistant to open flames. Their complete mattress line exceeds all current and planned Federal standards for fire safety and meets Cal. TB603.

Many of these features are not visible to the eye, yet so important for the health, comfort and safety of your baby. These unseen features added to the ones you will easily see when looking at it the first time, make this a great matress choice.

Thank you, Moonlight Slumber, for keeping my baby's safety and comfort in mind!

A novel DNA in vitro transfection reagent ----- GenJet™ is introduced by SignaGen Laboratories (SignaGen) at $139 per ml, only 55% of cost compared with major brand name products. GenJet™ DNA In Vitro Transfectio Reagent, a hybrid of cationic liposome and polymer, exhibits superior transfection efficiency with extremely low toxicity at affordable price, especially benefiting those high-volume users and low-budget laboratories.

Gaithersburg, Maryland (PRWEB) January 18, 2007

SignaGen Laboratories (SignaGen) today announced that it has introduced a novel DNA in vitro transfection reagent, GenJet™ DNA In Vitro Transfection Reagent at $139/ml, only about 55% of cost compared with major brand name products. GenJet™, based on proprietary lipid conjugation and polymer synthesis technologies, is formulated by covalently crosslinking polymer to cationic liposome, giving rise to superior efficiency and extremely low toxicity on a variety of mammalian cells, either adherent or suspension. Its simple protocol and high efficiency enables researchers to get satisfactory results easy, fast, and cost-effective, which is critical for low-budget laboratories and high-volume users.

Due to declining federal research budgets and increasing labor and material costs, more and more researchers have to cut their expenses by seeking inexpensive alternatives with high quality. SignaGen realizes this market need and keeps working on new product development at low cost, GenJet™ is the result of its efforts.

"We have been striving to develop and manufacture novel transfection reagents. We hope GenJet™ could be the top choice for these low-budget laboratories and high volume users for transfecting mammalian cells. To provide high-quality products at affordable price is always our philosophy and priority, we are continuing to offer more innovative products to these customers." said Dr. Jeffrey Zhou, one of Marketing Managers of SignaGen. "The chimera combines the advantages of both liposome and polymer with terrific transfection efficiency and invisible cytotoxicity. This product is absolutely better than those brand name products in terms of efficiency, cytotoxicity and price. I got more than 20% of GFP positive on mouse primary skin fibroblast while Lipofectamine 2000™ killed more than 90% of primary fibroblast after 4 hours serum-free incubation. I'll order more…" A beta-tester at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) said after testing GenJet™.

OnlineAdviser Offers Tips to Diabetics Looking for Health Insurance

OnlineAdviser Offers Tips to Diabetics Looking for Health Insurance

Diabetics have difficulty finding affordable health insurance because the law in most states only ensures availability of health insurance without regard to the price of the coverage.

(PRWEB) February 19, 2005

Tony Novak of Freedom Benefits Association addresses the most common questions of individuals with diabetes searching for health insurance. Novak works through OnlineAdviser service that provides support to individuals health care advocates. Diabetics need to pay close attention to the health insurance laws in their state that are designed to ensure that they have access to medical care through health insurance plans. Unfortunately, these laws are not designed to ensure that the insurance will be affordable. Many diabetics are simply unable to afford the most obvious health insurance alternatives. Many have a need to search for supplemental or less expensive coverage options.

Novak says that most questions from diabetics fall into one of these six commonly misunderstood issues:

Open Enrollment Plans - Each state now has at least one health insurance plan open to all individuals including diabetics. In most states this is offered through a high-risk health insurance pool that covers pre-existing conditions after satisfying the waiting period (usually 6 to 18 months). Those who had prior insurance coverage are exempt from the waiting period but because these rules vary state-to-state, it is best to look up your stateÂ’s specific laws before you change health plans. These plans are not available on the internet, so contact your state insurance department for the name of this special insurance provider (usually a local Blue Cross Association) and call the insurer directly for more information. These plans can be very expensive. If you do not want to tackle this search on your own, OnlineAdviser offers personal assistance for a flat fee of $150 at http://www. tonynovak. com/ (http://www. tonynovak. com/).

Employer-Provided Group Health Insurance Plans - Employer-provided group health insurance plans always accept diabetic employees but require that the applicant be a full time employee who has been employed for the waiting period established by the health plan (usually 30 to 90 days) and be working at least 30 hours per week. Specific eligibility provisions vary as set by state law and the employer. In order to get gain immediate coverage under an employer-provided health plan for diabetes treatment, it is important to have a “certificate of creditable coverage” from your prior health plan. See the article “Understanding a Certificate of Creditable Coverage” at http://www. tonynovak. com/ARTICLES/Understanding%20Certificate%20of%20Creditable%20Coverage. htm (http://www. tonynovak. com/ARTICLES/Understanding%20Certificate%20of%20Creditable%20Coverage. htm) and #2 “short term medical insurance” below for more information.

Short Term Medical Insurance - Short-term medical insurance is available to diabetics in most states who are not insulin-dependent at www. MedSave. com listed under the brand names “Select” or “HPA”. Although these policies last only 6 months, most states allow subsequent policies to stretch the coverage to fill longer time periods. Short-term policies never cover pre-existing medical conditions, but are a great value to diabetics in covering any other problems that might come up in the near future. This coverage is only ¼ to ½ of the cost of other health plans. Most importantly, this is the least expensive way for a person who is in between jobs to ensure that the next employer’s health plan will offer coverage for a pre-existing diabetic condition from the first day of coverage – without the need to satisfy a waiting period again. These plans are not available in all states.

Basic Health Insurance - Basic Health Insurance at http://www. basichealthinsurance. net (http://www. basichealthinsurance. net) is available in most states to all applicants regardless of health history. These plans pay for diabetic treatment after 6 months. But as the name implies, these are limited insurance policies that will not pay for catastrophic bills. Be aware that this insurance plan pays a specific dollar amount that is almost always less than the amount charges by a medical provider, but it may still be better than no insurance at all. The complete listing of benefits, rates and enrollment are offered entirely online. Some diabetics use this insurance to pay for deductibles, co-pays and out-of-pocket costs not covered by other health insurance because the benefits are paid in addition to (no offset by) other health insurance plans. These plans are not available in all states.

Discount Plans - Those low priced “health plans” advertised to diabetics are really not health insurance at all but health discount plans. Many have been fooled into thinking these are more than they really are. Discount plans do have value in reducing out-of-pocket costs, but not if you pay too much for them. A good discount plan should cost no more than $20 per month and offer a full refund of all fees for a reasonable time (at least 10 days, 30 days is preferable) if you are not satisfied. The best of these is available online at http://www. ehealthdiscountplan. com (http://www. ehealthdiscountplan. com). This plan is issued by a large national health plan administrator and used the same national Preferred Provider network that was so highly rated by Consumer Reports although they are not allowed to use the same name by contract rights. There is a complete satisfaction or full refund guarantee for 30 days to give members a chance to test the discounts on their own.

Health Savings Accounts - Individual health insurance plans for diabetics that allow participation in the Health Savings Account (HSA) program are not available yet. There are exceptions in a few states, but the cost of this coverage is still so high that these plans might as well not even be available. This may change in the future if Congress gets around to loosening HSA laws. More information about Health Savings Accounts, including an extensive listing of Frequently Asked Questions is available at http://www. healthsavingsaccount-hsa. com (http://www. healthsavingsaccount-hsa. com).

CitiStreet Deploys Third Brigade Host Intrusion Defense System

CitiStreet Deploys Third Brigade Host Intrusion Defense System

Benefits provider protects servers from attacks and ensures compliance.

Ottawa, ON and Reston, VA (PRWEB) October 18, 2006

Third Brigade (www. thirdbrigade. com)], a security software company that specializes in host intrusion defense systems, today announced the deployment of its software by CitiStreet.

CitiStreet is one of the largest and most experienced global benefits providers servicing over 11 million plan participants across all markets, with $200 billion in assets under administration in the US for defined contribution, defined benefit and health and welfare plans of corporate, government, health care, Taft-Hartley and not-for-profit organizations. CitiStreet, a joint venture between State Street Corp. and Citigroup, brings together the unique expertise and strengths of two trusted financial institutions.

“Protecting mission critical servers is a top priority for us,” said Jim Bearce, Technical Information Security Officer of CitiStreet. “After rigorously evaluating the leading alternatives over an extended period of time, we concluded that Third Brigade provides the most effective, deployable solution, and backs it up with highly responsive, professional support. Third Brigade software will allow us to provide additional security which builds upon our existing network and host-based security controls. “

Third Brigade’s host intrusion defense system uses deep packet inspection to detect and prevent known and zero-day attacks. It is quickly becoming a standard part of the server build in companies that have a defense-in-depth strategy and recognize the need to stay ahead of the latest threats.

Third Brigade allows CitiStreet to meet its corporate compliance requirements, and its customers’ requirements to comply with tough industry regulations such as the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act (GLBA) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

“The financial services sector is demanding when it comes to IT security,” said Wael Mohamed, President and CEO of Third Brigade. “But our open architecture allows companies to readily integrate host-based intrusion defense with security information and event management (SIEM) and other infrastructure investments, to create their own security rules, and to have complete visibility of the defense process.”

About Third Brigade

Third Brigade specializes in providing intrusion defense systems to financial services, health care, government, telecommunications and other organizations that need to detect and prevent attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in commercial and custom software, including web applications. It enables you to create and enforce comprehensive security policies that proactively protect critical applications, sensitive data, and hosts, ensure regulatory compliance, and maximize the performance of your people, processes and hosts. Unlike others, Third Brigade software is not intrusive: it is smaller, faster and simpler. Third Brigade. That’s control.

Barack Obama Seen as Military Boon, says new Website Militaryhub. com

Advertise Military, a leading military services advertising firm, launched Militaryhub. com Internet portal to provide in-depth news and insightful information for military lifestyle management in areas ranging from military auto insurance to military banking, from GI Bill Education to VA Loans, healthcare, military deployment, higher education, military family life, all the topics of military lifestyle success.

Houston, TX (PRWEB) November 21, 2008

Well before his Presidential victory, President Elect Barack Obama enjoyed two large military victories: the endorsement of Gen. Colin Powell, who called Obama a transformational figure, and a surge of support among the military, noted the founders of the newly launched Militaryhub. com for active military and veterans (http://www. militaryhub. com/).

"In many ways, Barack Obama's goals for today's men and women of the military echo our goals in launching Militaryhub. com: to ensure that enlisted military and veterans can access all the benefits military service affords (http://www. militaryhub. com/article/what-educational-benefits-does-mgib-for-active-duty-offer-me)," commented Bruce Reichstein, PR Manager for Advertise Military LLC.

Advertise Military, a leading military services advertising firm, launched Militaryhub. com Internet portal to provide in-depth news and insightful information for military lifestyle management (http://www. militaryhub. com/cat/military-lifestyle) in areas ranging from military auto insurance (http://www. militaryhub. com/cat/auto-insurance) to military banking, from GI Bill Education (http://www. militaryhub. com/cat-gi-bill-education) to VA Loans, healthcare, military deployment, higher education, military family life, all the topics of military lifestyle success.

"From enlisted military to veterans, Militaryhub. com offers access to information that supports a successful military lifestyle," commented Bruce Reichstein "We're keeping them abreast of products and services that support those in the military."

"The issues facing military families today are becoming more complex," stated Reichstein. "We founded Militaryhub. com because, after many years experience, we determined that there was a need for one complete website that addressed all the challenges of living today's military lifestyle."

And those challenges have increased, according to military servicemen who say that the past eight years have been very stressful.

"Having access to information as well as products and services can make the difference between a thriving military lifestyle and just getting by," commented Jerald Reichstein, President of Advertise Military. "Militaryhub. com offers guidance in managing military home and family, health and insurance, banking and money - and we plan to continue adding more military topics as military readers request."

"Life in the military includes a myriad of regulations and details; Militaryhub. com speaks clearly and concisely about leveraging the benefits available to the military," commented Elliott Easterling, VP of Advertise Military.

MilitaryHub. com also cites famous veterans including actors, congressmen and Presidents, musicians and rock stars who were all enlisted in the armed forces; and noting children of the military who went on to fame.

"At a time when choosing to be in the military is a more challenging decision, Militaryhub. com shows that a military lifestyle can still be managed successfully and has indeed been the proving ground for achieving even greater success after military duty," added Bruce Reichstein.

Are We Poisoning Our Seniors?

Are We Poisoning Our Seniors?

Accidental poisoning of seniors is a silent epidemic plaguing our generation of elderly. It is important to know the hazards and safety practices involved with medications.

(PRWEB) March 12, 2004

Accidental poisoning of seniors is a silent epidemic plaguing our generation of elderly. Many medications, which are beneficial to others, are inappropriate for seniors and can be deadly if taken in combination with other remedies. Over-the-counter medications, vitamins, herbs, sedatives, antidepressants, pain medication and even prescription medications can cause adverse drug reactions and side effects resulting in fatal or life-threatening injuries.

Frequently, the reactions to these medications include dizziness, instability with walking, falling, and disorientation or confusion. These signs are often dismissed simply as the consequences of growing older, or as symptoms of another disease which may result in additional medications being prescribed. The following are measures that seniors and their families can take to avoid a potential problem:

1. Make sure the individual can read the medication labels. Often they attempt to do so without their glasses or in the dark, causing mistakes in taking the correct medication or dose of medication.

2. A record of all medications, along with the dose and time they are supposed to be taken, should be kept and updated frequently. Include all over-the-counter drugs and all prescribed medications from each physician the individual sees for care. This record should be taken to each doctorÂ’s visit to assist with the coordination of care.

3. Store all medications in the original containers and in the same area. Seniors often reach for a medication in a “familiar location” and if it has been moved from its usual place, they may accidentally pick something else up by mistake. This will also eliminate the potential for outdated drugs to accumulate and inadvertently be taken.

4. Choose an individual to coordinate and manage the care of the senior with all of the doctors that they see and the medications they take and select a single pharmacy to fill all prescriptions. Often times a family member or reliable friend can assist in this process, or you can hire a consulting pharmacist or a geriatric care manager to assist.

5. Search the web for general information on medications and drug interactions or expected geriatric reactions. Some examples of websites that can help include: www. ccgp. org, www. drugdigest. org, www. webmd. com and www. seniorcarepharmacist. com.

Make certain the senior understands that misusing medications is a leading cause of death in their age group. Taking a variety of different prescriptions may be necessary in a handful of patients. However, for the majority of seniors, a good diet and daily exercise can play key roles in helping to keep them healthy.

A Shortcut to Reducing Logistics Costs By Up To 40%

A Shortcut to Reducing Logistics Costs By Up To 40%

TourSolver Route Planning Software Calculates Cost-Effective Routes. New Version Helps Companies Improve Fleet Efficiency by up to 40%

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) December 11, 2005

Many companies in industries such as business-to-business services (vending machine operators, maintenance, industrial cleaning), sales, pharmaceutical distribution, business-to-customer services (home delivery, healthcare) rely on fleets of vehicles. In the present era of climbing fuel prices outpacing economic growth, the latest version of TourSolver vehicle fleet-management software is an ideal solution for companies seeking to lower their transportation costs. Developed by European logistical software company Magellan Ingénierie, this version includes new and enhanced constraint-management features to quickly and easily create cost-effective routes that improve vehicle usage.

The new constraints were added to further broaden the software’s appeal and to provide better results for route planning. These constraints include: enhanced management of delivery days and time slots, frequency of visits, distinct places of departure and arrival, variable mileage costs, new legal constraints, and speed weighting. Companies can now choose up to 60 constraints.

Since 2002, the software has established itself as an affordable, simple solution for complex transportation problems, at an estimated cost of less than $4,000 for a 10-vehicle fleet. Due to its affordability and user-friendly interface, this version’s multifaceted accessibility is particularly attractive for small businesses.

“If you can use spreadsheet software, you can use TourSolver,” says Benoît Quévy, Magellan Ingénierie CEO. Low prices combined with ease of use allow companies to recoup their investment quickly and painlessly. “By reducing mileage, planning time and maybe even some unnecessary vehicles, our customers can quickly put the savings back at the bottom line,” Quévy says.

Companies worldwide rely on the software for improving operations. Recently, La Normande, a subsidiary of Sodexho, a world leader in the food and facilities management market, used it and was able to reduce its fleet from 30 to 25 vehicles. This reduction saved more than $75,000 on vehicle rental contracts and more than $45,000 on fuel costs compared to the previous year. “Since TourSolver handles and complies with the customer-mandated delivery-time slots, the quality of customer service has considerably improved,” says Yves Foutrel, an independent consultant who managed the software’s implementation for La Normande.

Magellan Ingénierie will be at SITL 2006, an international transport and logistics trade show in Paris, from March 7 to 10 at booth M63.

About Magellan Ingénierie:

Magellan Ingénierie develops solutions for companies to utilize road network data for route optimization, location intelligence and geo-marketing applications. These products calculate access times, distances and costs, generate directions and optimize vehicle routes, while taking the means of transport and the types of roads into account. Business-to-business, business-to-customer, commercial fleet management, transport and geo-marketing professionals worldwide rely on Magellan Ingénierie’s technology. The range of products is available either as "turnkey" solutions (TourSolver, ChronoMap), or programming components (TourSolver Developer Kit, ChronoMap Developer Kit, ChronoX Routing Engine, ChronoX TourSolver and ChronoJ). TourSolver software is available as an add-on for Microsoft MapPoint or for MapInfo Professional.

ChicExecs PR Announces: Baby Banz Launches their New Adventure Banz Line

ChicExecs PR Announces: Baby Banz Launches their New Adventure Banz Line

Australian Based Company finds an efficient and stylish way protect babies eyes from harmful UV Rays with their new line of Adventure Banz sunglasses.

Vista, CA (Vocus) September 28, 2009

Baby BanZ Inc., launches their newest line in eye protection with their Adventure BanZ sunglasses. Clinically tested by one of the world’s leading authorities on sunglasses, Baby Banz products have passed the most stringent standards on sunglasses in the world.

Baby BanZ was founded in 2001 in one of the harshest UV climates in the world: Australia. There simply aren’t many baby and toddler sized sunglasses on the market, and like their parents, kids are subject to the sun too. Until the age of 8 or 9, children have no filters in their eyes to block out harmful UV light which can potentially damage their eyes. To counteract the terrorizing rays of the sun on young children’s eyes and to fill this gap in the market, the people behind Baby BanZ created the ultimate product in children’s sun protection with their Original Baby BanZ sunglasses.

Their new Adventure BanZ have taken the original design and added an embedded silicone nose and brow piece for added comfort. The lenses offer 100% UVA and UVB protection, high sun glare reduction, and are of Ophthalmic quality. Neoprene elastic straps reach around the head to keep the glasses in place, and come with a side adjustable Velcro closure that allows for years of wear as the child grows. The strap matches one of the 13 possible colors of the sunglasses and allows for flexibility, breathability, and comfort during use. The frame is made of shatter-resistant polycarbonate which keeps children’s eyes safe. Regular lenses can be replaced with prescription ones, and can come in a polarized version.

The Adventure BanZ come in both Baby BanZ sizes for ages 0-2, and Kids BanZ sizes for ages 2-5. Kids will love accessorizing like their mommies and daddies in these sleek and sporty sunglasses! Baby BanZ is also expanding to take on the market of kids fashion with their UV protection shirts, adjustable toddler sun hats, and swimwear.

Baby BanZ won the 2009 Toy Man Award of Excellence and were the first product in the award’s history to get all 5 stars in each category! Their products have been featured in magazines such as Babycouture, Better Homes, and Green Living. After making their debut in Australia, Baby BanZ came to the American market and then expanded into South Africa, Japan, Germany, China, Greece, Switzerland, France, and many more gaining success in each location. Baby BanZ is also a part of InfantSEE, a public health program that promotes a lifetime of healthy vision for all children.
