Lifeables Will Make Sure Parents Never Miss a Memory

New service automates the collection of memories for today's digital family

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 10, 2012 -- Because of work conflicts, distance, or mismatched schedules, members of today's modern family often miss a memorable event like a game, school play or birthday party. Those who attend capture great pictures and videos on their mobile phones and digital cameras. They might even share funny stories or pictures on Facebook or Flickr. But in the end, no one knows exactly who has managed to capture what, and on which device or social network, making it nearly impossible to later relive the event and protect its memories.

Lifeables will make sure family members "Never Miss a Memory" -- it's the ultimate collection (and curation) engine for today's modern family, retrieving pictures, videos and posts from every possible source while eliminating the privacy concerns still plaguing other social networks.

According to Lifeables' CEO Karen Macumber, "Today's digital family generates more content -- in more formats (pictures, videos, posts, Tweets) than ever before. Yet this content is spread everywhere. There's no simple way to retrieve it, find the really meaningful memories, pull them together in a way that tells a story, and make sure that story is safeguarded for all generations. That's why we've created Lifeables."

With just one click, Lifeables starts pulling in pictures and posts from across all family member social accounts, using advanced filtering to eliminate the clutter and highlight the best content. And best of all, the Lifeables system learns as it goes -- the more it is used, the more accurate it becomes. Along with mining items from social networks, Lifeables also allows family members to chronicle memories from items stored in their e-mail, mobile phone, and computer.

The true value of Lifeables goes well beyond collection, with easy-to-use tools that give families the flexibility to organize the memories they've found (or created) into living collections -- by person, event, date or theme -- whatever makes sense to them. Each collection is then continuously updated as Lifeables finds new content related to memories in that collection. The service goes further, allowing individual memories or entire Lifeable collections to be selectively shared with trusted family and friends in the format they each prefer without extra work. So Grandma gets her email, Aunt Cathy views rich displays within Lifeables (which can be turned into hard-copy keepsakes), and Facebook friends get to enjoy posts from mom and dad's wall.

Simply stated, Lifeables creates a new paradigm for family memory collection and curation by:

• Allowing the preservation of a family's history to become full-blown multimedia collections that constantly evolve
• Involving all generations -- parents, kids and grandparents -- and all family members (not just Mom) in both the telling and recollection of the family's story
• Creating an ultra-secure environment where elements for precious family memories (digital pictures, personal reflections, etc.) can be safely stored and shared

Lifeables.com (beta) is available free to all consumers, with mobile/tablet extensions to be available soon.

"She works hard and plays hard and that's what makes her performance on the KCA's one to look forward to."

Fans can now vote for their favorite stars on Nick.com and via a Facebook application that will live on the Nickelodeon Facebook page. Users will be able to vote from a tab on the page and, for the first time ever, the entire voting experience can be embedded directly into Facebook wall posts. Also new this year, fans will be able to vote for their favorite nominees on Twitter through the use of custom hash tags.

This year, kids not only pick the winners, but they get to help host Will Smith pull off the greatest celebratory silver anniversary slime moment. Through a brand-new iPad, iPhone and iPod app, and the KCA website , kids need to find slime hidden throughout the photo galleries, news, and videos. If kids collect enough slime, Will Smith will pull off the biggest slime event ever in this year's show. Aided by weekly mission videos featuring iCarly's Jennette McCurdy, Jerry Trainor, and Nathan Kress, kids will have the chance to earn digital rewards and move up the slime operative ranks.

Dribble, Dunk and Dazzle on the Basketball Court, Without Injury

ROSEMONT, Ill., March 5, 2012 -- The basketball season is in full swing, and while players and spectators love the on-court action, all that fancy foot and hand movement can cause a wide range of injuries – from sprained ankles and knees, to jammed fingers and stress fractures.

STATISTICS
According to the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission, nearly 1.5 million basketball injuries, in children and adults, were reported in 2010.

EXPERT ADVICE
"Basketball is a fast moving, intensely competitive sport, with a significant potential for injury," said J.R. Rudzki, MD, a Washington D.C. orthopaedic surgeon specializing in sports medicine, and spokesperson for the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS). "Dressing appropriately, ensuring a safe play environment, and maintaining consistent flexibility and strength training can help avoid injury."

AAOS BASKETBALL SAFETY TIPS
The AAOS has recommendations to help you enjoy the game of basketball, without injury:

• Wear appropriate equipment. Shoes should fit snugly and offer support. Ankle supports can reduce the incidence of ankle sprains in patients with a history of injury (this should be discussed with your doctor); protective knee and elbow pads can protect players from bruises and abrasions. Consider wearing a mouth guard. Do not wear jewelry or chew gum while playing. Other helpful equipment may include eye protection, ankle braces or sports tape.
• Ensure a safe play environment. Outdoor courts should be free of rocks, holes and other hazards. Players should avoid playing on outdoor courts that do not have appropriate lighting. Indoor courts should be clean, free of debris and have good traction. Baskets and boundary lines should not be too close to walls, bleachers, fountains or other structures. Basket goal posts, and the walls behind them, should be padded.
• Maintain fitness throughout the year. Ideally, players should maintain an exercise and training regimen during the basketball season, and throughout the year.
• Warm up before play. Consistent warm up and stretching exercises may reduce injuries. Initially stretch the spine and legs in a relaxed but thorough fashion. Warm up with jumping jacks, stationary cycling, or running or walking in place for 3 to 5 minutes. This should be followed by slow and gentle stretching, holding each stretch for 15-20 seconds.
• Stay hydrated. Even mild levels of dehydration can hurt athletic performance. Ideally, players should drink 24 ounces of non-caffeinated fluid two hours before exercise, and an additional 8 ounces of fluid or sports drink immediately before play. While playing, break for an 8 ounce cup of water every 20 minutes.
• Use proper passing and play techniques. Practice good technique. For example, when you jump for the ball, land on a bent knee rather than a straight knee. Play only your position and know where other players are on the court to reduce the chance of collisions. Do not hold, block, push, charge, or trip opponents. Use proper techniques for passing and scoring, and most importantly, don't forget sportsmanship!
• Prevent overuse injuries. Because many young athletes focus on just one sport and train year-round, doctors are seeing an increase in overuse injuries. The AAOS has partnered with STOP Sports Injuries to help educate parents, coaches, and athletes on how to prevent sports injuries. STOP Sports Injuries recommends:
  • limiting the number of teams in which your child is playing on in one season
  • not letting your child play one sport year round, and
  • taking regular breaks and playing other sports to improve skill development and prevent injury.

New App for Teaching Language to Children with Autism is Now Available!

NEW YORK, March 5, 2012 -- Different Roads to Learning, Inc., a global retailer of educational products for children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder and other developmental disabilities, today announced the launch of Tell Me About It! Learning Language by Receptive Function, Feature & Category , an iPhone/iPad app for developing early language skills.

This app uses Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), a systematic teaching approach that involves breaking down skills into small, easy-to-learn steps. ABA is the only evidence-based effective intervention treatment for Autism endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the United States Surgeon General. The Tell Me About It! App is now available for $9.99 at iTunes.

"A new wave of educational apps has been on the rise since the iPad first launched; now, they are more efficient and visually stimulating than ever. These apps are especially pertinent in the early education of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders. We are pleased to develop the Tell Me About It! App, which covers the basic foundations of language for children diagnosed with Autism. Our Tell Me About It! App for the iPhone and iPad allows parents and professionals to apply ABA in any setting," said Julie Azuma, CEO of Different Roads to Learning, Inc., which she founded in 1995 after her daughter was diagnosed with Autism.

"Mimicking an actual one-on-one instructional session with a therapist, the app utilizes Discrete Trial Teaching, a method of teaching students with Autism and other language or developmental delays by breaking skills into the smallest possible steps, teaching each step intensively until its mastered, providing repetition, prompting incorrect responses, and using positive reinforcement. It's like having a personal tutor at your fingertips," said Abigail Schlaifer, VP Sales & Marketing. She added, "Teachers, parents, and psychologists can delve into the Teacher's Console to control the difficulty settings for each student, and will appreciate the Student Report Card, which displays data for each student with an option to email results."

About the Development of the Tell Me About It! App
The concept for this app was developed by Stacy Asay, LMSW, and Abigail Schlaifer for Different Roads to Learning and created by Infusion, which combines expert software engineering with appealing user experiences.

Different Roads to Learning was one of ten small businesses selected for the CEO-UBS Small Business Advisory Program, a philanthropic partnership between UBS Wealth Management Americas and the William J. Clinton Foundation. As a participant in the Program's New York Metro Area pilot, Different Roads to Learning received six months of pro-bono strategic financial and business advice from a UBS Financial Advisor and a dedicated client. The app is a product of this mentorship program. For more information, visit iTunes.

Here are the reviews on the app:

• Best Apps for Kids (editor's choice!)
• I Heart This App
• Special Apps, Special Kids
