ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, New Jersey, May 7, 2019 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — AXE believes there’s no one way to be attractive, and this year the brand is bringing that notion to life through the Find Your Magic Tour with the mission to help teens find their magic within their passions. To accomplish this, AXE is giving guys the tools and platforms they need to stay chill, showing them that they can be their most attractive selves while pursuing what they love.

To help guys confidently connect with their passions, the brand is launching the AXE Gaming Contest, which is designed to highlight up-and-coming players who show off their creativity. AXE knows that guys are passionate about gaming and streaming online, but they often struggle to find an audience. That’s why AXE has teamed up with Influencer, Gamer, and FaZe Clan Member, Cizzorz, to help elevate an undiscovered streamer with a new fanbase of subscribers.

“When I get into the zone while gaming or building my Deathruns, that’s when I’m my most confident, creative self,” says Cizzorz. “I’m just doing what I love and that’s when I feel like the most attractive version of myself, and my hope is for all guys to feel that way. I hope that the work I’m doing with AXE will encourage guys to be proud of what makes them unique and help them find some of their own magic so they can feel the same way both on and offline.”

AXE and Cizzorz are calling on fans to submit a clip of their best gameplay on social media that showcases their creativity, personality and skillset. Cizzorz will later host the winner on his stream, introducing them to his viewers and helping them find their magic by developing their personal gaming and streaming style. The winner will also join Cizzorz and AXE at VidCon in Anaheim for a joint live stream.

The contest goes live May 6, 2019 11:00 am ET and will be open until May 23, 2019 11:59 pm ET. To enter, fans must submit their best live-action clip accompanied with a caption about why they’re passionate about gaming and upload their post to either Twitter or Instagram using #AXEGaming and #Contest. Visit AXE.com/Gaming for full contest rules.

“AXE wants to support our guy throughout every aspect of his life from daily grooming to his favorite hobbies, like gaming,” says Dawn Hedgepeth, General Manager and Vice President of Unilever Deodorants, Men’s Grooming and Hand and Body Lotion. “We know that guys feel their most attractive when doing what they love. And, while gaming is a relatively new space for AXE,we want to show guys that we’re invested in their passions and here to help them look and feel their best.”

Additionally, The Find Your Magic Tour is made possible by the AXEmobile; AXE’s traveling content hub that will bring creators and product directly to fans at major events across the nation like SXSW Gaming, VidCon, and more. The bus will also be making stops at select high schools around the country offering free samples of AXE’s newest products, free haircuts and styling tips.

To help guys keep their cool and stay confident on this journey, AXE launched the Ice Chill product line to keep them looking and feeling their best. This latest collection features 48-hour protection and comes in two refreshing scents: Ice Chill and Fresco. The line is available in body spray, antiperspirant deodorant stick, body wash and 2-in-1 shampoo & conditioner (Ice Chill only).

New Story Sharing Initiative Launched By March Of Dimes Will Build Community To Increase Awareness Of Issues Around Pregnancy, Parenthood And Loss This Mother’s Day

March of Dimes Foundation Logo

ARLINGTON, Va., May 7, 2019 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — March of Dimes, the leading nonprofit fighting for the health of all moms and babies, has launched #UnspokenStories, a supportive community that gives voice to all experiences around pregnancy, parenthood and loss. This new initiative aims to provide women, men and families a platform to connect and speak honestly. Kicking off just before Mother’s Day, #UnspokenStories will celebrate and support families in communities across the country to build awareness of the organization as we provide the advocacy, education, research and programs they need.

March of Dimes Foundation Logo

The United States is in the midst of a maternal and child health crisis with more than 380,000 babies born prematurely each year, as well as more than 50,000 women experiencing life-threatening complications as a result of pregnancy and childbirth. This country cannot continue to be the most dangerous developed nation in which to give birth. March of Dimes is working in communities across the country to reduce the rising rates of premature birth, as well as maternal mortality and morbidity. Our organization supports women before, during and after pregnancy to ensure all mothers and infants are healthy.

“Unspoken Stories aims to build a supportive community for moms and families by breaking the stigma of sharing stories around all forms of pregnancy and parenting,” said Stacey D. Stewart, President and CEO of March of Dimes. “We’re empowering those who are too often silenced or hidden in the shadows. March of Dimes has the partnerships and community-building connections to convene, help and inspire people to share their stories. We know it only takes one story like your own to feel heard and supported.”

Honest stories of pregnancy, parenthood and loss are too often left unshared. To fill this void, March of Dimes launched a supportive community of parents, medical professionals, grandparents, would-be parents and friends who want to connect and share with each other one story at a time. From family planning, pregnancy and parenting to the joys, the laughter, the challenges and the heartbreaks—all of these stories help build a community and provide support for so many who have had similar journeys.

Celebrities including Rachel Platten, Stephanie Ruhle, Mayim Bialik, Jazmyn Simon, Elisabeth Rohm, Laura Benanti, Nikki DeLoach and many others have also joined the initiative to stand with women, men and families by highlighting their own experiences in an effort to normalize pregnancy and parenting experiences as well as raise awareness around the urgent health crises moms and babies face in America.

“Sharing #unspokenstories of motherhood is so important… especially when Instagram only shows a sliver of real life. We are led to believe that the moment we have our children is going to be the best of our lives. In reality it is the most overwhelming. There is a no man’s land between ecstatic and clinically depressed… when most of us are living right smack in the middle. It doesn’t have to be this way, and if we talk about it more, we can fill the space with support and camaraderie … crowding that ‘no man’s land’ with some likeminded mamas.”
Stephanie Ruhle, anchor of MSNBC Live with Stephanie Ruhle and Velshi & Ruhle

To join the #UnspokenStories movement, individuals and families can:

  • Share stories at UnspokenStories.org to join hundreds who have shared their #UnspokenStories via social media.
  • Host an Unspoken Conversation—where friends, families and neighbors can gather to share in person—in their community just in time for Mother’s Day. March of Dimes has created a conversation guide at www.UnspokenStories.org/Conversations, making it easy and meaningful to gather in person and online.
  • Join our upcoming Facebook Live event with PopSugar, March of Dimes health experts and cast members from “Nine Months with Courteney Cox.” Join this special interactive event on May 7 at 1:00 p.m. ET/10:00 a.m. PT. We’ll be sharing honest #UnspokenStories and advice and taking questions from viewers LIVE. RSVP now 
  • Check out March of Dimes #UnspokenStories storytelling booths in select cities near you, including Washington D.C. (5/4) and Atlanta (5/4)—at annual March for Babies events—where families can share their stories without shame or judgement.

This Mother’s Day (5/12) #UnspokenStories will also help celebrate every mother’s journey by amplifying all voices. Every mom, mom-to-be, those who have lost a child and those hoping to become moms should feel heard, valued and supported on Mother’s Day and every day.

“If you’ve lost a child, if you’re miscarried, if you’re wishing to become a parent, but are struggling, Mother’s Day can be an emotional holiday,” Stewart continues. “It’s a day to be celebrated, to be sure, but we want moms to know that we see each of their #UnspokenStories and we’re here for them.”

#UnspokenStories shows the urgent need to destigmatize this maternal and child health crisis and show families across the country that they are not alone in their experiences.

For more information about #UnspokenStories and to share your story, please visit UnspokenStories.org, upload your story and engage with others in our community. You can share on social media on your channels or March of Dimes’ Facebook and Instagram pages using #UnspokenStories.

St. John’s Cinnamon Bay Campground and Trunk Bay Concession to be Rebuilt by New Owners to Boost Local Economy

0

ST. JOHN, U.S. Virgin Islands, May 6, 2019 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — St. John’s Cinnamon Bay campground will be rebuilt in an effort to boost the local economy and restore jobs, according to the new owners of Cinnamon Bay Resorts. 

Backed by philanthropist and Bloomberg LP co-founder Thomas F. Secunda, CinnOpCo announced today its purchase of Cinnamon Bay Resorts, operator of Cinnamon Bay and the concessions at Trunk Bay in the Virgin Islands National Park.  Longtime St. John hospitality manager Adrian Davis will direct the company. Secunda, an advocate for the national parks, served as chairman of the board of trustees of the National Parks Conservation Association. 

“Over the years I’ve been visiting St. John, I’ve developed a real passion for the island and for its people,” Secunda said.  “Our goal at Cinnamon Bay is to create the best camping experience in the national parks system in a way that benefits the local economy and gives back to the territory, its visitors and its residents.”

“Cinnamon Bay has always been a unique part of our tourism infrastructure and its reopening signals another step in rebuilding our private sector economy,” said U.S. Virgin Islands Governor Albert Bryan. 

“The reopening of the iconic Cinnamon Bay is a major step towards restoring the important range of St. John’s tourism offerings,” said Congresswoman Stacey E. Plaskett.  “I’m excited about the reopening and new innovative management of such an historic area with its beautiful beaches.”

“We look forward to honoring the history of Cinnamon Bay while providing family friendly accommodations on the property again.  We are excited to renovate both properties and provide services to visitors and residents once again,” said Davis.

Cinnamon Bay facilities and grounds have sat largely untouched since hurricanes Irma and Maria devastated the island in 2017 and the reopening will help bring back jobs and more visitors to St. John.

The restored campground will feature upgraded facilities and camping options ranging from renovated bare sites for tents to redesigned bungalows. The rebuilding will prioritize sustainability and resilience at both locations.

Underscoring a commitment to St. John and the broader territory, Secunda said profits will be driven back into philanthropic efforts across St. John.  Local companies, including B&C Transport, will be used for the work on site.  Staff will be employed year-round instead of laid off in slower months.

The clean-up and rebuilding starts immediately with the aim of reopening Cinnamon Bay campgrounds for the 2020-21 season.  Trunk Bay will continue to operate as is while food and beverage buildings are repaired, upgraded and rebuilt.

The reopening will help bring needed jobs back to St. John. It will also contribute to the local economy by creating opportunities for other vendors and individuals who are needed by Cinnamon Bay guests including taxis, rental cars, local restaurants, offsite activities and destinations.

Recovering and Rebuilding for Resilience
Under Secunda’s leadership, the Bloomberg Response Team has been on the ground in the U.S. Virgin Islands since the days immediately after Hurricane Irma struck, spending tens of millions of dollars to assist the territory since 2017.

The Bloomberg team sent technical experts to serve side by side with the government of the U.S. Virgin Islands and organizations like Kenny Chesney’s Love for Love City, and new non-profits like Love City Strong to accelerate response and recovery.  Many Bloomberg staff drew on their experience working on the recovery and rebuilding after Hurricane Sandy hit New York City in 2012.

The work of Love for Love City and Love City Strong, in partnership with Bloomberg, has grown into an island-wide effort to rebuild homes in a resilient way for St. John’s most vulnerable residents.  Love City Strong has also led the way in ensuring clean cistern drinking water as well as mold remediation on storm-damaged homes.

Their work has grown into a sustained effort to support sustainable and resilient rebuilding and preparation in St. John and throughout the territory through the Hurricane Recovery Task Force, Sustainable Energy Work, the USVI Public Safety Support Foundation, and Love City Strong.

New and Innovative Approaches to Recovery and Preparedness
As climate change makes hurricane increasingly powerful and destructive, Secunda’s aim is to help build a more resilient region that is better prepared to respond to future storms and natural disasters.  Working with the local government and partners, the Bloomberg team and its partners have been trying new and innovative approaches to disaster recovery and preparedness that are showing success across the territory.

The Bloomberg Response Team and Love City Strong will present results and best practices at the upcoming Clinton Global Initiative Action Network on Post-Disaster Recovery meeting in St. Thomas in early June.  The meeting will advance recovery and resiliency efforts, support long term sustainability and drive action to prepare for the 2019 hurricane season.

Gluten-Free Food Labeling: Important Information for Those with Celiac Disease

0
US_Food_and_Drug_Administration_Logo

SILVER SPRING, Maryland, May 7, 2019 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — May is Celiac Awareness Month. An estimated 3 million Americans suffer from celiac disease, a genetic autoimmune digestive disorder that damages the small intestine. Celiac disease is triggered by consumption of a protein called gluten, which is found in wheat, barley, rye, and crossbreeds of these grains. Gluten gives breads and other grain products (such as cakes, cereals, and pastas) their shape, strength, and texture. For those suffering from celiac disease (or choosing/preparing food for someone who does), identifying gluten-free food is critical.

In August 2013, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a regulation that standardized the meaning of the voluntary claim “gluten-free” on food labels. This ensures that gluten-free claims on food products are consistent and reliable across the food industry.

Learn more at:
https://www.fda.gov/food/nutrition-education-resources-and-materials/gluten-and-food-labeling 

Understanding Gluten-Free Labeling

FDA defined the terms “Gluten-free,” “No gluten,” “Free of gluten,” and “Without gluten.” Manufacturers are not required to label gluten-free products—the use of the claim is voluntary. Foods with any of these terms in their labeling have to meet the requirements of the gluten-free regulation. FDA encourages consumers to rely on these four terms when looking for foods that can be used as part of a gluten-free diet.

Foods bearing a gluten-free claim must, among other things, contain less than 20 parts per million of gluten. A food that is labeled as gluten-free but fails to meet the requirements of the regulation is subject to regulatory action by FDA.

Products Covered by the Gluten-Free Regulation

FDA’s regulation applies to all foods and beverages (including packaged foods, dietary supplements, fruits, vegetables, shell eggs, and fish) except for:

  • Meat, poultry, and certain egg products
  • Most alcoholic beverages

Gluten-Free When Eating Out

Given the public health significance of gluten-free labeling, FDA continues to encourage the restaurant industry to ensure that its use of gluten-free labeling is consistent with the federal definition. FDA also works with state and local governments, who play an important role in oversight of restaurants, and considers appropriate action as needed, alone or with other agencies, to protect consumers with respect to gluten-free labeling in restaurants.

Reporting Adverse Effects and Labeling Concerns

Individuals who become ill or experience adverse health effects that they believe are associated with having eaten a food should first seek appropriate medical care.

Afterward, individuals can report a problem with a food or its labeling in either of these ways:

Retaining his current belts and, after winning the IBF Middleweight Championship belt, this latest victory puts Canelo just one belt shy of unifying the division and becoming the undisputed champion.

Canelo Álvarez and Maluma (PRNewsfoto/Hennessy)

In the spirit of Hennessy’s “Never stop. Never settle.” mantra, this milestone fittingly came on the eve of Cinco De Mayo in front of a packed crowd of 20,203 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. With a decisive decision win, Canelo continued to honor the legacy, country, family and heritage of excellence he’s displayed since exploding on the boxing scene in 2005.

Global superstar and one of Hennessy’s newest cultural icons, Maluma, sat ringside as one of the brand’s special guests. Following the match, Maluma attended Canelo’s celebratory evening at KAOS at the Palms where guests toasted to the boxing champion’s continued “Never stop. Never settle.” journey.

Canelo’s unrelenting drive, commitment and tenacity have yet again propelled him to the top—making him an inspiration to the next generation as he enters year three of working with Hennessy. Intended to encourage others to “Never stop. Never settle.,” the partnership with Golden Boy includes support of the entire Golden Boy camp:  custom content around their various platform partners, in addition to video releases, special events, and cross-channel promotions over the course of 2019.

Hennessy invites fans across the globe to toast this monumental victory with an inspired V.S.O.P Privilège cocktail:
