Boxing Champ Ron "The American Dream Johnson" Joins Bonk Be Live To Update Fans And Steer Teens In The Right Direction

Cleveland's own light heavyweight champion Ron "The American Dream" Johnson has been a boxing fan all of his life. His uncle Ronald, whom he was named after, was a professional fighter and died in the ring before Ron was born. He would attend an older cousin's boxing matches, and that was one of the deciding factors for Ron Johnson to jump-start his career at the age of seven. As an amateur, Ron Johnson dominated his opponents in the ring with 110 wins. In 2001 Ron placed first, winning a gold medal at the Pan American games in Santa Fe, Argentina. At the age of seventeen he was discovered by boxer Laila Ali, the daughter of the great Muhammad Ali. At nineteen years old, he signed with NRAGE, a management company based in Philadelphia and started training with Floyd Mayweather Sr. His professional debut was on the same card as Winky Wright and Shane Mosely, in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay Casino and Resort. In his first match he scored a fourth round TKO. He went on to win nine more consecutive fights. In 2006 Ron Johnson became a free agent and signed a five year, seven figure deal with a Houston based management firm called Kennyboy. Boxing Legend Oscar De La Hoya and legendary promoter Don King, offered to sign him, and both offered substantial amounts of money, but Ron was happy with Kennyboy Management Company. Shortly thereafter, Ron had an opportunity to sign a multi-year deal with promoter Murad Muhammad, who promoted Roy Jones Jr. and Evander Holyfield. This deal was worth millions to Ron Johnson, but he wasn't sure if it was the right career move for him as he wanted to take control of his own career. Once he made his decision, he quickly enlisted help from a friend and set out to gain control by finding investors for his next fight. After investors saw him fight and witnessed a third round knockout against Aaron Norwood, they promptly provid capital to promote his next fight. This was the turning point for Johnson and a dream come true. Johnson said, "It's my biggest accomplishment to date!" Mr. Johnson promoted his own fight on October 6, 2007, and he became the WBF light heavyweight Champion. Ron Johnson and football legend Jim Brown then started the foundation "Put down the guns, Pick up the gloves," to help steer teens in the right direction in order to stop senseless violence. Since then, Mr. Johnson's foundation has provided three homes to deserving families and has supported many programs dealing with at risk troubled teens. This foundation is joining with http://www.teenlawschool.com to teach teens that when kids break the law unintentionally or even accidentally, the consequences can leave emotional, financial and legal scars that can last a lifetime.

“Relationship ADHD”: Have We Lost the Instinct for Commitment?

Relationships have always been complicated. It takes time and effort to develop trust and intimacy and the deep love that sustains a couple over many years and through the rough patches. It takes sacrifice and compromise and putting another person's wants and needs ahead of your own. These are timeless truths. Yet it seems that the ways in which relationships develop – or fail to develop – have changed. Psychiatrist Dr. Alex Dimitriu observes that his dating clients find that prospective partners come and go before either person has even had a chance to evaluate the potential for a lasting relationship. "What's going on?" he asks. "Do we have 'relationship attention deficit disorder'? Have our lives become so fragmented and our attention so distracted that we can no longer focus long enough to form a strong bond with a potential life partner?"

It would appear that that is indeed often the case. Life moves fast. We expect everything to be easy, every need to be instantly gratified, often without human interaction. Dinner is delivered to our door. Directions are spoken into our ears. Alexa answers every question. The thrill is in the new – in the chase – and when the excitement wears off or when one party opens up and shows some vulnerability, it's easier to tell yourself that you're bored or that "things are getting too intense" and run away than to open up and really get to know someone on a deeper level. When a new date can be found with a swipe, why take the time to let a real relationship develop? Read news here.

Dr. Dimitriu notes that one of the most important ways in which the dating game has changed is that the age-old assumption that dating is a prelude to a committed relationship no longer holds, or at least not for everybody. "There is often a mismatch of intentions," he says, "when only one party views dating as the means to finding a life partner and the other just wants to hang out, hook up, and move on – to live just for the moment, not for the future." A 2016 study* found that as many as one-third of unmarried serious relationships are "asymmetrically committed," that is, one partner is completely devoted and oriented toward a long-term future and the other is enjoying the convenience of the relationship but is not invested in or committed to it. "Many of these relationships break up," says Dr. Dimitriu, "with all the attendant conflict and heartbreak. While the relationship may have been serious, it was hardly happy."

"The elephant in the room is technology," says Dr. Dimitriu. "It is in every aspect of our lives, especially our social lives. Our social media selves – what we choose to show and tell the world – become more real than our true selves." What we truly want and need is sublimated to the superficial projection of a life that doesn't really exist. The same is true of projecting an image of a perfect relationship while losing sight of the reality of two flesh-and-blood people who can't possibly live up to that image. "And when our primary means of communication is the text message – with anxiety and resentment surfacing when responses aren't instantaneous – there's little opportunity for real understanding and empathy."

Given this environment, how are we to manage our dating lives? How do we develop relationships that strengthen and deepen over time, that don't fall apart at the first sign of trouble? Dr. Dimitriu offers some suggestions:
Read here.

"I don't mean to imply that technology is at the root of all relationship problems," says Dr. Dimitriu, "but there is some irony in the fact that a communication device may be the very thing that is getting in the way of meaningful communication. And the only route to a lasting relationship is through meaningful communication. When you meet someone new, do you let them know that you hope to build a lasting relationship? Or, for fear of frightening them off, do you play along with the casual sex and good times in the hope that something deeper will develop? There is no right answer but as in everything, honesty is the best policy. In this or any other time, the only way to avoid 'relationship ADHD' is through open and honest communication."

Fonebud W, the Travel Wi-Fi Hotspot and Wireless Charger, Fully Funds on Indiegogo

The founders of Fonebud W want people who travel internationally to stay connected to friends, family and business, quickly and easily. Fonebud W launched an Indiegogo campaign to bring people a travel Wi-Fi hotspot with 4G/3G Wi-Fi data roaming and 10,000 mAh of wireless charging. With half of the crowdfunding campaign timeline remaining, Fonebud W already exceeded its funding goal.

The main aspect of Fonebud W is its compatibility with any electronic device that has Wi-Fi connectivity. Up to eight devices can be connected to Fonebud W at once, which allows coworkers, families and friends to use Wi-Fi simultaneously. Fonebud W users can connect on the go for up to 35 hours of active data roaming on a single charge. Because the hotspot also functions as a wireless or USB charging station, users can easily charge while they roam. Unlike similar available products, Fonebud W has no monthly fee — users pay as they go and keep the extra data for later. Users choose from individual country packs with 90 or 365 days validity.

"We are very happy with the enthusiasm Fonebud W received and can't wait to show what we have in store for the rest of the campaign," said Sunny Koay, CEO of Fonebud W. "We designed Fonebud W to make international trips easier and more cost-effective. We focused on small data packs that can be reused later on the next trips. Our success has proven that people agree that it's important to stay in touch, always." Read here.

With eSIM technology, Fonebud W lets users access the internet like a local, wherever they go and as many times as they want. Fonebud W users can instantly purchase data packages and view all of their data plans in one place — even those purchased for use in another country. Users can plan their trip, travel between countries and continue using their previously purchased data plan. Because it is easy to grip, store and conceal, Fonebud W is convenient to use in 90 countries outside of the U.S. with planned expansion into more countries in the future. Fonebud W also use full roaming in China, allowing travelers to browse Facebook, Google, Instagram, WhatsApp and more, without using a VPN client.

Current supporters of Fonebud W receive an extra 4GB South East Asia data (17 countries/8 days) on top of the 2GB international data (all countries/365 days) already included as starter kit. With over two weeks left in the campaign to continue collecting pre-orders, Fonebud W is already in production and well on its way to getting in the hands of consumers. It is guaranteed to ship by its projected November 2018 ship date. Visit the campaign at pr.go2.fund/fonebudw.

Learn and Play Montessori Announces Innovative "Fremont Preschools Near Me" Campaign Targeting Three Locations

Learn and Play Montessori, a leading Montessori program offering childcare, daycare, preschool and kindergarten opportunities at four separate schools in Fremont, California, is proud to announce an innovative search ad campaign targeting the popular phrase, "preschools near me," in Fremont, California. Fremont is the Bay Area's fourth largest city and geographically is quite long, making it tough for busy Bay Area parents to find preschools that are either near them or convenient to their commute (or both).

"Parents desperately want quality preschool education in Fremont that is near them," explained Harpreet Grewal, director of Learn and Play Montessori. "As we discovered so many parents searching 'preschools near me,' we decided to create and announce an innovate ad campaign for Fremont, which is the fourth largest city in the Bay Area and geographically the longest city."

Those seeking to view the new ad campaign in real time (and who are physically in Fremont, California) can simply pull out their mobile phone, go to Google and type in "Preschools near me." The new ads are optimized to show the closest of Learn and Play's four schools. For example, those who are in the Niles, Fremont, area at zip code 94536 can also visit https://www.learnandplaymontessori.com/niles-fremont.php to learn about Fremont preschools in the northern section of Fremont. Those in central or southern Fremont, in contrast, can Google "preschools near me," and discover the Irvington location at https://www.learnandplaymontessori.com/irvington-fremont.php. Those who are just seeking the best preschools in Fremont but aren't sure which location might be the best match can just visit the website, and contact the staff for a campus tour. The staff knows Fremont well and can discuss which location is the best fit for parent and child.

FREMONT'S TOP MONTESSORI PRESCHOOL PROGRAM WITH FOUR LOCATIONS

Here is the background on this release. Fremont is known as one of the most vibrant communities in the San Francisco Bay Area, with over 230,000 residents. The city is also quite long as it sits in a relatively narrow part of the East Bay, making it an ideal commuter city for persons who work anywhere in the Bay Area, from San Jose to the South, or San Francisco to the north. The city's length, however, can make finding the best preschool programs difficult, especially for those parents who commute as the city's traffic has, unfortunately, gone from bad to worse in the booming Bay Area economy. For this reason, Learn and Play Montessori has announced an innovative "preschool near me" ad campaign on Google so that busy parents can find and visit the best preschool near them. A campus tour is the next step, and then if the school is found agreeable, enrollment can be made. It should be noted that all campuses are filling fast and concerned parents are urged to visit the website and book a school tour as soon as possible. Be alert to the latest news.

ABOUT LEARN AND PLAY MONTESSORI

Learn and Play Montessori aims to be one of the best Montessori schools in the greater San Francisco Bay Area. Whether parents are looking for a Montessori School in Danville, a Blackhawk preschool or a top-rated Montessori School in Dublin / San Ramon, Learn and Play has a campus for their child or children. Bay Area parents searching for Walnut Creek preschool options could find the right fit in Danville. All schools use the famed Montessori method, offering programs from childcare to daycare, preschool to kindergarten, in not only Danville, Fremont, Dublin or San Ramon but also in nearby towns such as Alamo, Blackhawk, Diablo or San Ramon on the I-680 corridor as well as Walnut Creek.

Picanova ‘Top 100 Photography Award’: The Winners Have Been Chosen!

More than 10,000 photos from 15 countries around the world were submitted for the first edition of Picanova's 'Top 100 Photography Award' at photokina. The top-class jury has subsequently selected the best 100 pictures and has awarded three main prizes. First place went to "Lean on me" by Laura Zalenga from Munich. Second and third places went to Michael Jaster with "Rosa Flamingo" and Carsten Schröder with "Firefighter" respectively. The award ceremony with Picanova's Managing Director, Philipp Mühlbauer, and Managing Director of Foto Koch, Thomas Görner, took place yesterday in Hall 1 in front of the picture gallery of the 'Top 100 Photography Award'.

Be alert to read related news.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/rescale-and-remcom-bring-nvidia-gpu.html

"We are overwhelmed by such a large number of participants and are very pleased with the outstanding quality and unique visual language of the entries," said Philipp Mühlbauer, Managing Director of Picanova.

The first, second and third place winners received prizes worth 10,000, 6,000 and 4,000 Euros respectively, half of which can be redeemed at Foto Koch photo shop in Düsseldorf and half at picanova.de. In addition, the winners will receive their own picture sized at 120x80cm as an Alu-Dibond photo print as well as strategic support in setting up their Photo.Club web shop for selling their own motifs. The winners were not the only ones who benefited though. Prizes worth 500,000 Euros were awarded to participants.

The three main winners live for photography

Laura Zalenga from Munich studied architecture and has been an independent portrait artist since 2014. She impressed the jury with her winning picture "Lean on me" (taken with a Sony α7R II). The photo is part of a project where the artist reinterprets existing pictures from her portfolio. "I am very happy about the first place and the attention my photo gets from the exhibition at photokina. This is a great opportunity to make my photography even better known," says Zalenga.

Second-placed Michael Jaster from Düsseldorf has been closely associated with photography since 1975. His photo "Rosa Flamingo" was taken during a holiday stay on Fuerteventura with a Nikon D800/70-200. "We were in a beautiful park and were surprised by passing flamingos. Sometimes you need a little luck with the motives!"

Carsten Schröder, who finished third with his photo, has been taking pictures since his early childhood and has already received numerous awards for his work. This specific piece "Firefighter" taken with a Fuji X-T2, was produced during a workshop at Saarbrücken Airport. "The photo was taken during the blue hour. It shows a panther of the airport fire brigade "throwing the water cannon at the right moment."

American IRA Addresses Can Investors “Supercharge” Their Savings with a Self-Directed IRA?

Opening a Self-Directed IRA account can be a great way to save for retirement, notes a recent article at American IRA. The Self-Directed IRA administration firm recently explained on its blog that while it is not difficult to open a Self-Directed IRA account, that does not necessarily mean retirement investors will realize its full potential. To do that, the article notes, putting in the maximum funding possible could supercharge savings, allowing investors to watch tax-free or tax-deferred growth as their savings grow. Read related news now.

"No one has a crystal ball," notes the post. But according to popular thought, retirements often require putting away some 15 to 20% of savings, in addition to any income that may be expected from Social Security or even pensions. Many retirement investors set target nest eggs of $750,000 to $1 million due to this need for funding during retirement.

The Self-Directed IRA might be able to "supercharge" savings thanks to the tax protections. The key, writes American IRA, is that those who start off young can realize substantial returns due to compound interest. Read latest news here.

Limits on contributions might be another issue for investors. "You are not limited to that $5,500 per year ceiling on Self-Directed IRA contributions," notes the article. For example, a married couple can put away another $5,500 toward retirement, even if the spouse does not earn an income. That puts the contribution limit of a Self-Directed Roth IRA up to $11,000 in such cases, helping investors supercharge their savings any more.

The article went on to explore a number of ways investors can realize the full benefits of a Self-Directed IRA, noting the need to act aggressively to save for retirement. The post also pointed out how combining Self-Directed IRAs and small business retirement plans can allow self-employed people to boost savings with high contribution limits.

The Self-Directed IRA is not a "special" IRA in that it does not allow higher contributions. But as American IRA points out, it is possible to build up a substantial nest egg with the right information.

For more, read the post at http://www.AmericanIRA.com or call 866-7500-IRA to contact American IRA today.

"About:
American IRA, LLC was established in 2004 by Jim Hitt, CEO in Asheville, NC.
The mission of American IRA is to provide the highest level of customer service in the self-directed retirement industry. Jim Hitt and his team have grown the company to over $400 million in assets under administration by educating the public that their Self-Directed IRA account can invest in a variety of assets such as real estate, private lending, limited liability companies, precious metals and much more.

Lion Brand Yarn Company Inundated With Donated Hats for its Hat Not Hate Anti-Bullying Campaign

It started with a trickle. Seven lovingly hand-made hats were delivered to Lion Brand Yarn Company's warehouse in Carlstadt, New Jersey a few days after the company launched a campaign to demonstrate its support of anti-bullying called Hat Not Hate. A few weeks later, boxes of donated hand-made hats started arriving from all over the world, from as far away as Benghazi, Libya. As the days passed, the trickle became an avalanche.

Lion Brand Yarn Company asked its community, through social media and email, to use their knit and crochet skills to help bring awareness to the devastating problem of bullying by making blue hats to wear in October, the official anti-bullying awareness month. The campaign's hashtag on social media is #HatNotHate. Read this for more information.

Lion Brand also asked for donations of hand-made hats to outfit one school of 1,500 students in New Rochelle, New York so the entire school could demonstrate their support of the cause on October 1, which is World Day of Bullying Prevention™, an initiative of STOMP Out Bullying.

Within a few weeks, the boxes started being delivered in larger and larger quantities. A few days after the first seven hats came 22, then 50, and soon the boxes of hats had to be delivered in large mail carts at a rate of hundreds in a day. Some boxes contained one handmade hat wrapped in tissue paper with a personal note, and some contained as many as 60 hats contributed by a guild or religious group who worked together on the project. As of today, the company has received well over 2,500 hats.

Many personal notes accompanied the donated hats saying why supporting the Hat Not Hate cause meant so much to the person who made the hat.

About Lion Brand Yarn Company
Founded in New York City, Lion Brand Yarn Company is a fifth generation family-owned and operated business, "Famous for Quality Since 1878," devoted to inspiring and educating knitters and crocheters with yarns, patterns, how-tos, and ideas that elevate their yarn crafting experience. Year after year Lion Brand drives innovation in the yarn business, and pursues excellence in their products.

New Jersey Audubon’s 72nd Annual Cape May Fall Festival Offers Many Experiences for Bird and Nature Lovers

NJA and its Cape May Bird Observatory are also taking over Cape May Convention Hall, where everyone is invited to visit a variety of vendors with a natural twist, and for the first time ever, Nature Nick's Animal Adventures, the most diverse collection of travelling exotic animals in the world. He'll be bringing birds of prey, an armadillo, an alligator, snakes, and maybe even a flamingo. You'll just have to come and see for yourself, because it's free!

For weekend festival registrants, fees of $69 per day or $185 for three days unlock a wide variety of events open to registrants only. You will have to choose from 31 birding walks to famous Cape May locations led by local experts; 11 small group exclusive opportunities, either aboard a trolley, or in a small group walk, all led by some of the most famous names in US birding; 19 indoor programs by experts in the field from bird identification, eco-travel, research and monitoring, and more; 9 boat trips into the marshes; and our fun and informative Hawk ID and Seabird ID Master Classes for a more intensive learning experience. Additional fees apply for some small group experiences.

About half of Cape May Fall Festival registrants consider themselves beginning and novice birdwatchers, and our surveys say they have a great time. The weekend is a great way to give birding a try or take your skills to the next level.

After a day of birding, participants are invited to socialize and enjoy an evening program at The Grand Hotel of Cape May. Friday will feature Dr. J. Drew Lanham, a Clemson University Distinguished Professor and National Audubon Society board member, who will present "Ornitherapy--Confessions of a Lapsed Lister and a Life Saved by Birds."

The Sunday afternoon "Trip to the Rips" aboard the American Star at Utsch's Marina is a favorite of many festival goers.

This trip always sells out, so sign up early.

Mohamed Khalife, Director of Product Management Software for Paramount WorkPlace said, "Software brings the most value when it's in full use. In our latest WorkPlace 2018 release, a few areas of my focus were user experience, mobile, and data analytics. My goal was making the user experience so intuitive that even if a user is new to the procurement cycle, they are guided through to the next step in the workflow. Equally important was offering users a powerful single-glance view of their KPI's and spending analytics so that they can make fast, high-quality, strategic decisions at any time.
