News ReleaseDon’t Get Scammed: Tips for Avoiding Fraud After a Natural Disaster
YourUpdateTV
Click to view video accompanying this release: https://youtu.be/YCGvYBaBZes With hurricane and wildfire seasons on the horizon in many parts of the country, damage and loss to homes from these natural disasters can be unavoidable. The National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) is warning those living in areas that could suffer from a natural catastrophe to not only be prepared for the disaster, but to be on guard for fraudulent contractors and vendors who take advantage of victims in the aftermath. Oftentimes, dishonest contractors target neighborhoods affected by disasters and make unsolicited stops at residential properties. They will take homeowners’ money, often overcharge them, and do shoddy or no work at all, promising that the insurance company will pay for it all. Insurance fraud related to natural disasters costs billions of dollars every year, which results in higher premiums for policyholders. In some cases, individual homeowners are on the hook for up to tens of thousands of dollars they may not be able to recover. On Tuesday, May 23rd, NICB President & CEO David J. Glawe conducted a nationwide media tour with TV stations across the country to discuss how to avoid home repair fraud after a natural disaster and many other consumer-friendly topics, as part of the organization’s third annual Contractor Fraud Awareness Week. During the media tour interviews, Glawe discussed: The steps homeowners can and should take prior to a natural disaster and how preparation can help reduce chances of becoming a victim of fraud; The kind of fraud that takes place following disasters while victims are trying to put their homes and lives back together; The best practices for disaster victims when hiring contractors or vendors and tips for avoiding dishonest contractors; The most common methods fraudulent contractors try to scam disaster victims; and The resources available to help homeowners and other disaster victims dishonest contractors or report fraud when they encounter it.

News ReleaseCalling All Adventure Seekers: Looking for a heart-pumping adventure in the great outdoors?
YourUpdateTV
From mountain biking to rock climbing to white-water rafting, it might surprise you to learn that Arkansas offers something for every level of adventure seeker. Recently, Travis Napper from Arkansas Tourism and Suzanne Grobmyer from Arkansas Department of Parks, Heritage and Tourism conducted a satellite media tour to talk about the hidden gems of Arkansas. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/Dsd_giujvvk Outside Magazine recently named Arkansas’ Monument Trails as the best mountain biking destination in the country. Arkansas is a state of visionaries when it comes to outdoor recreation. The State has been blessed with beautiful mountain ranges – from the Ozark Mountains in the north to Pinnacle Mountain in central Arkansas. The Monument Trails are a series of shared-use trails located in various Arkansas state parks. Through a partnership with the Walton Family Foundation, professional trail builders designed and developed the trails with designs that are innovative and sustainable, and that help highlight Arkansas’ beauty. There are trails for beginners and trails for those who are experienced. Arkansas has a collection of world-class, mountain biking routes within four Arkansas State Parks — Mount Nebo State Park, Hobbs State Park, Pinnacle Mountain State Park, and Devil’s Den State Park. The shared-use trails, which were professionally crafted by the world’s best trail builders, showcase Arkansas’s natural beauty and are woven into the beautiful landscape. If you would rather find your adventure on the water, there is plenty of adrenaline-pumping white water rafting in Arkansas. Try Cossatot River State Park and the Class IV rapids of Cossatot Falls. If a leisurely float down the river is more your speed, then you can do that at Cossatot, too. There are few activities more serene and calming than a hike along the 300 miles of trails in Arkansas State Parks. There is no better way to see The Natural State. Petit Jean Mountain State Park offers trails that are rather easy and others that are strenuous. Most everyone can navigate the Cedar Falls Trail, and it is definitely worth the effort because the trail’s end is the stunning 95-foot Cedar Falls Waterfall, which begins behind the breezeway at the park’s historic Mather Lodge. Arkansas is also home to two world-class fine arts museums – Crystal Bridges and Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts. Another reason Arkansas is called The Natural State is the abundance of outstanding lakes and rivers. Arkansas, for instance, is known as one of the premier locations for trout fishing. Record trout are caught at the Little Red River and the White River. The State also has some of the world’s best bass fishing locations. The Buffalo National River is an ideal place for a quiet float. Ready to ride? Arkansas.com is a one-stop resource for all things Arkansas.

The APP / Kittch partnership was launched on Memorial Day, 2023, live on Good Morning America, ABC’s iconic morning show. On the show, Kittch Founder and chef Elana Karp and fellow chef Chad Rosenthal were joined by APP pro players Parris Todd, Alix Truong, and Hunter and Yates Johnson live on air to try examples of the range of the food offerings Kittch will serve at the APP events, and help GMA host Michael Strahan enjoy playing pickleball for the first time. The key aspects of this innovative partnership will be the rebranding of the APP’s kitchen area – the seven-foot, non-volley zone in front of the net – to become "The Kittch'n" and the creation of the Kittch’n Court, a unique food festival atmosphere at key tournaments that showcases the best local and national culinary talent. This dynamic new space will be backed by influential culinary sponsors and brings together food enthusiasts, professional chefs, and athletes in a unique and engaging environment. “We are thrilled to join forces with Kittch to bring together two such complementary and rapidly growing worlds - sport and gastronomy," said Tom Webb, Chief Marketing Officer of the APP.

Our partnership with the APP is a game-changer for our platform. We're excited to create a unique, food-centric experience for pickleball players and fans, while showcasing the best local and national culinary talent at APP events."

News ReleaseBoundery Launches Bug Bulb Zapper Light as New Rechargeable Mosquito Killing Trap Lantern
Cosmic Wave
BOUNDERY LAUNCHES RECHARGEABLE BUG ZAPPING BUG BULB TO KEEP BACKYARDS MOSQUITO-FREE ALL SUMMER LONG Outdoor gadget uses combination of LED light and electric coils to eliminate mosquitos and other flying insects from indoor or outdoor spaces LOS ANGELES, California – May 30, 2023 – Outdoor gadget company Boundery has launched the Bug Bulb, a portable bug zapper featuring advanced technology to lure mosquitoes and kill them instantly. As part of a summer 2023 launch promotion, Boundery has reduced the price of the Bug Bulb to just $39.99 per zapper, with greater discounts available when buying multiple bug zappers. Boundery developed the Bug Bulb using a combination of advanced technology and minimalistic design. Each Bug Bulb features a bright LED light to attract mosquitos. Mosquitos and other pests fly towards the light believing it to be an easy food source. Then, before they reach the light, they encounter the electric coils, which zap and kill them instantly. Boundery launched the Bug Bulb with the goal of keeping families safe all summer long: “Mosquitos aren’t just annoying; they also carry harmful diseases and illnesses,” explains a Boundery spokesperson. “With the Bug Bulb, we created an effective solution to keep backyards safer and bug-free all summer long.” The Bug Bulb works indoors and outdoors, protecting all types of spaces without relying on toxins, chemicals, pesticides, or sprays. Some hang the Bug Bulb from patios, while others place multiple Bug Bulbs throughout the house and backyard for maximum protection. Because the Bug Bulb is wireless, it’s usable anywhere: “We incorporated modern, rechargeable battery technology into the Bug Bulb to enhance its usability. Many of our customers take the Bug Bulb camping or use it off-the-grid, for example, because of its rechargeable battery. Plus, there’s no need to fuss with AA or AAA batteries or long extension cords.” The Bug Bulb lasts 15 to 20 hours on a single charge, making it one of the longest-lasting bug zappers on the market. Although primarily designed for mosquitos, it also attracts and zaps flies, no-see-ums, gnats, and other flying insects. For a limited time, the Bug Bulb is priced at $39.99 per lantern, with greater discounts available when ordering multiple lanterns. Boundery typically sells the Bug Bulb at an ordinary retail price of $61.52. “We’ve worked with our manufacturer to reduce costs on our end, and we’re happy to pass big savings to our customers. We want to see Bug Bulbs protecting as many homes as possible by the end of summer.” With a combination of LED light, bug zapping electrical coils, and a long-lasting battery, the Bug Bulb aims to be the ultimate outdoor accessory to keep any home pest-free all summer. About Boundery: Boundery, also doing business as Etshera Housewares, is an outdoor gadget company based in the United States.
