Head Lice Cozy Up To Kids As Temperatures Drop


Stop Lice Cold with Vamousse for Effective Shampoo Protection


MORRISVILLE, N.C., Jan. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — During the cold weather months, we all like a warm, cozy home – (cue the creepy music) even head lice. Your child’s head can be very inviting for lice, but you can put a damper on their move-in by using a protective lice shampoo in the case of potential exposure.

Many parents think the fall back-to-school season is the only time to be concerned about head lice. In fact, the problem persists year-round, especially when children are playing indoors in close proximity, and when hats and scarves are shared. Children can be exposed to head lice during parties, playdates and sleepovers, and retail sales figures for lice products show that when temperatures drop, and school is again back in session, incidents of lice go up. 

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that as many as 12 million children get lice each year, making it one of the top two health issues in the U.S. among children ages 3-11 (behind the common cold). If a child is exposed to lice, siblings and parents are also at risk. If you or your children have potentially been exposed, specialists recommend a lice protection product to eliminate uncertainty.

Dr. Brooke Bissinger is an award-winning entomologist and director of R&D for TyraTech, Inc., an innovative life sciences company which has introduced the Vamousse line of pesticide-free lice products. She is also the mother of two school-age children. Bissinger advises that a protective shampoo is effective if it kills the lice before an infestation can take hold. It’s too late for a repellent solution at this point. Once exposure has happened, expedient eradication of lice is key to preventing a more serious and challenging problem.

“If you’re concerned about potential exposure to head lice, start by performing a thorough head check. If no lice are found but you are concerned about any you may have missed or continued exposure, replace your family’s daily shampoo with a pesticide-free protective shampoo for two weeks to kill any lice,” said Bissinger. “There are safe, non-toxic shampoos on the market today, including Vamousse, which can be used daily allowing you to proactively eliminate any stray lice before they become an infestation.”

Bissinger offers these tips for anyone who might be facing the unwelcome guests:

  • Examine your child’s head under bright light for tiny grayish bugs and their eggs (these are often mistaken for dandruff and usually located near the scalp). If seen, use a lice treatment product immediately.
  • Lice symptoms include scalp itching and a visible rash behind ears and on the nape of the neck. Signs of infestation, if they appear at all, manifest 2-4 weeks after lice have arrived. During this time, children are sharing lice with others before any infestation is detected.
  • If you don’t see visible signs but are concerned about exposure , give yourself peace of mind by replacing your family’s daily shampoo for two weeks with an effective lice protection shampoo that kills lice. A louse can lay up to 10 eggs a day, making it crucial to kill the lice and continue using the shampoo to kill any lice that may hatch from eggs laid before you began using the shampoo..
  • Pesticide-based lice products should not be used as a preventative measure. Look for non-toxic and pesticide-free alternatives as repeat exposure to certain chemicals is not recommended.

There are many lice products on the market. The best way to prepare for that note about an outbreak at school – or when your child’s friend or sibling is infested – is to seek out protection that is proven effective in killing lice, such as safe, non-toxic Vamousse Lice Protection Shampoo. Its innovative formula helps keep your family lice-free by killing lice before you know they are there – protecting against an infestation. Vamousse is gentle and safe for daily use by the entire family, including children as young as two.

In 2015, moms, school nurses and pharmacists will learn more about head lice and the benefits of safe, effective, pesticide-free protection as TyraTech sends its clinicians and research scientists to professional conferences and educational events across the country. Tyra Tech continues to be a global leader in nature-derived consumer solutions that are safe for people, animals, and the environment.

Vamousse Lice Protection Shampoo, made in the U.S., comes in an 8 fluid ounce (236mL) bottle and is available online. For an active head lice infestation, use Vamousse® Lice Treatment, available online and in Walmart. For further product information, coupons, and tips on battling lice visit www.vamousselice.com.

Disneyland Resort Offers Southern California Residents Limited-Time Special Tickets As ‘Frozen Fun’ Debuts in Disney California Adventure Park

New ‘Frozen’ Experiences Brighten the Winter Months at Disney California Adventure and Disneyland Parks


ANAHEIM, Calif., Jan. 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — The Disneyland Resort kicks off 2015 with a special ticket offer exclusively for Southern California residents, with options for two or three days of magic and adventure at special prices. For a limited time, residents may purchase the tickets to experience new “Frozen Fun” at Disney California Adventure Park and also enjoy classic attractions and entertainment throughout the Disneyland Resort.

Photo – http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20150107/167435

The Southern California Resident tickets* are available beginning Jan. 7, the same day as two premieres – “Frozen Fun” at Hollywood Land, in Disney California Adventure Park, and a “Frozen” show at Fantasy Faire in Disneyland Park. “Frozen Fun” will entertain guests for a limited time and includes an elegant new location where guests may greet sisters Anna and Elsa, from the Disney animated blockbuster “Frozen.”

To explore the new “Frozen” experiences, as well as the other fun and excitement at the Disneyland Resort, Southern California residents may use the special tickets to visit one park per day (either park) or purchase Park Hopper tickets for a two- or three-day period. The offer has four purchase options: a 2-day ticket with choice of one park per day for $139; a 2-day Park Hopper ticket for $178; a 3-day ticket with choice of one park per day for j$169, or a 3-day Park Hopper for $208.

With these limited-time tickets, Southern California residents have the flexibility to make memories with family and friends over two or three days, from Jan. 7 through May 21, 2015.* (Dates blocked are March 20-April 4, 2015.) The sooner a purchase is made, the more time guests will have to return for a second or third visit.

‘Frozen Fun’ at Disney California Adventure Park

“Frozen Fun” in Disney California Adventure, a new limited-time offering, includes “Anna & Elsa’s Royal Welcome,” an elegant location inside the Disney Animation building for Anna and Elsa to receive visitors. Guests may reserve a time to meet the charming sisters by utilizing a Return Time ticket, available just outside the Animation building. Elsewhere in the Disney Animation building, guests at the Animation Academy will be asked “Do You Want to Draw a Snowman?” – with an Olaf drawing experience.

Another element of “Frozen Fun” is “For the First Time in Forever – A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration,” which transforms the Muppet*Vision 3D Theatre into the Crown Jewel Theatre of Arendelle. When Anna, Elsa and Kristoff take part in a comedic retelling of their story, musical sequences (and lyrics) are shown on the theatre’s large screen, and guests are invited to sing along.

Next door, in Stage 17, “Olaf’s Snow Fest” creates a winter scene where guests may meet and share warm hugs with Olaf. A giant play area with real snow encourages guests of all ages to build snow creations and zip down a snow slide. (Note: “Olaf’s Snow Fest” concludes April 30, 2015.)

After dark, just outside the entrance to “Olaf’s Show Fest,” the area transforms into “Freeze the Night! A Family Dance Party.” Guests will “chill out” in an interactive party that celebrates all things “Frozen” with exciting music, games, photo opportunities, drinks and snacks, ice sculptors and plenty of super-cool nighttime energy. Guests also may look for a friendly likeness of the “Frozen” character Marshmallow, posing for photos.

Exciting Attractions Throughout the Disneyland Resort

Additional “Frozen” experiences can be found in Disneyland, where the Fantasy Faire team of Mr. Smythe and Mr. Jones put their unique spin on the “Frozen” story. They have adapted it for the Royal Theatre, featuring their own wacky performances in key roles, along with Anna, Elsa and the Faire Maidens. Anna and Elsa also make daily “pre-parade” appearances on their own float immediately preceding “Mickey’s Soundsational Parade” in Disneyland.

Southern California residents using the special tickets may enjoy a variety of classic attractions and entertaining shows. These include voyages to a galaxy far, far away via Star Tours, “the wildest ride in the wilderness” aboard Big Thunder Mountain Railroad in Disneyland and an exciting run on the California Screamin’ coaster at Disney California Adventure. Cars Land in Disney California Adventure takes guests to Radiator Springs from the Disney●Pixar animated classic “Cars,” offering a ride on the extremely popular Radiator Springs Racers. Guests also may enjoy spectacular shows such as “Disney’s Aladdin – A Musical Spectacular” in Disney California Adventure or “Mickey and the Magical Map” and “Fantasmic!” in Disneyland. Themed dining locations range from Jolly Holiday Café on Main Street, U.S.A., in Disneyland to the Carthay Circle Restaurant and Lounge, Boardwalk Pizza & Pasta and Paradise Garden Grill restaurants in Disney California Adventure.

The special 2-day and 3-day tickets are an ideal way to catch all the fun, but they won’t be available for long.  Southern California residents must purchase tickets by May 14, 2015. Tickets expire after May 21, 2015 and blockout dates apply.  They can be purchased at Disneyland.com/tickets, The Disney Stores, Vons and other retail locations, as well as any Disneyland Resort ticket booth.  Guests who purchase tickets online may print their tickets at home. When purchased in advance, 3-day tickets include one Magic Morning** early entry to Disneyland Park, which provides an extra hour of play on select days before the park opens to the general public. This benefit is not available to tickets purchased at Disneyland Resort ticket booths.

AT&T Gives More Than 50 Million Mobile Share Value® Subscribers Shareable Rollover Data(SM)

AT&T Gives More Than 50 Million Mobile Share Value® Subscribers Shareable Rollover Data(SM)


All Mobile Share Value customers get it automatically at no extra cost


The unused monthly plan data rolls forward for use within the next month


DALLAS, Jan. 7, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Today AT&T1 announced it’s bringing back its popular “Rollover” concept – but this time for data. Beginning January 25, all new and current AT&T Mobile Share Value customers will automatically receive the Rollover Data feature at no additional cost.2 Now, all Mobile Share Value customers will have their unused, shareable plan data in a given month roll over to be used within the next month. The best part is that it is simple and easy to track, and Rollover Data benefits the whole family or business – across all smartphones and devices on the same Mobile Share Value plan.

AT&T is making it easier for customers to do more with their data on their terms — all on the nation’s most reliable LTE network with the nation’s strongest LTE signal3. AT&T Mobile Share Value customers will be able to share the data that rolls over from the previous month, a big advantage for families and businesses.

“Rollover Data is an added benefit of being an AT&T Mobile Share Value customer and it’s just another way that we’re saying thanks to our more than 50 million plus Mobile Share Value subscribers,” said Glenn Lurie, President and CEO, AT&T Mobility. “We’re providing even more value and flexibility, and the best part is it’s simple, shareable and easy to track for our customers. All Mobile Share Value customers get this automatically.”

With shareable data rolled from the previous month, AT&T Mobile Share Value customers enjoy more freedom and ability to use their data on their terms across devices.

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:

  • All levels of AT&T Mobile Share Value plan customers automatically receive the Rollover Data feature – no signing up, no additional cost.
  • Rollover Data can be shared with everyone on the same Mobile Share Value plan.
  • If you do not use your full allotment of plan data in a given month, the extra amount automatically rolls over and is available to be used within the next month.
  • Within a given month, you will use your plan allotment first, before you begin using your Rollover Data. Unused Rollover Data does not carry over.

As an example:

If you have four lines and have a 15GB AT&T Mobile Share Value Plan and only use 10GB in a given month, you’ll roll over 5GB and have a total of 20GB available to use within the next month. If you were to only use 10GB in the second month, you’ll again roll over 5GB and have a total of 20GB available the next month. Bottom line: if you have unused plan data this month, it automatically rolls over to be used within the next month in case you need more than your plan’s allotment. This gives you that extra data to do the things you love across all your devices, like surfing the web, watching videos, listening to your favorite music or sending email.

AT&T Mobile Share Value customers will be able to view their Rollover Data balance on the myAT&T app or online at att.com.

California’s Low Cost Auto Insurance Program Can Insure More Drivers Than Ever In 2015

California’s Low Cost Auto Insurance Program Can Insure More Drivers Than Ever In 2015


LOS ANGELES, Jan. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Reforms and enhancements to California’s Low Cost Automobile Insurance Program (CLCA) are in effect as of January 1, 2015 and will allow the program to insure more California drivers than ever.

By California law, all drivers are required to be insured, although approximately 15 percent of cars on the road do not have insurance for various reasons, the most common being cost.

Assembly Bill 60 of 2013 allows Californians to be eligible to apply for a driver’s license regardless of immigration status. With the signing of AB 60, California will welcome an estimated 1.4 million new drivers over the next three years who will seek affordable insurance options.

Senate Bill 1273 has expanded the eligibility criteria to include drivers who have not been continually licensed for the past three years. This will make many newly licensed drivers, including the 1.4 million individuals who can now be licensed under AB 60, eligible for the program.

In addition, SB 1273 has raised the limits on the value of an automobile that can be insured through the program from $20,000 to $25,000 to allow more Californians to qualify for the coverage.

“The expansion of the Low Cost Auto program is a win for all Californians,” said Commissioner Dave Jones. “More California drivers now qualify for low cost auto insurance which means more insured vehicles on our roads and greater safety for all California drivers.”

About California’s Low Cost Auto Insurance (CLCA)
CLCA was established by the Legislature in 1999 and exists (pursuant to California Insurance Code Section 11629.7) as a program designed to provide income-eligible, good drivers with liability insurance protection at affordable rates as a way to meet California’s mandatory auto insurance law. The CLCA program is brought to you by the California Department of Insurance and is administered by the California Automobile Assigned Risk Plan (CAARP). Learn more at www.mylowcostauto.com
