RealCare Program from Realityworks, Inc. to Appear at Museum of Motherhood in New York City
2011-09-13
EAU CLAIRE, WI, September 13, 2011 (Press-News.org) Visitors to the Museum of Motherhood (M.O.M.) in New York City will have the opportunity to experience RealCare hands-on simulations from Realityworks while touring the exhibit. Realityworks became a corporate sponsor of M.O.M. by supplying them with multiple RealCare Baby infant simulators and RealCare Pregnancy Profiles for the exhibit.

The first and only facility of its kind, M.O.M., aligned with the Motherhood Foundation, is a museum that offers attendees the opportunity to study and understand the important job of a mother. Its goal is to strengthen the voice of mothers while connecting the cultural family. The museum features an exhibit called "Mother The Job," by artist Alexia Nye Jackson, on-going programming for children and adults alike, and several music and theater performances and events.

"When people ask what the museum is, I tell them this - we have mustard museums, marble museums and car museums, but until now, there have been no museums dedicated to this all important job of creating the next generation of human being," said Joy Rose, Founder and Executive Director of Museum of Motherhood. "Visitors will get a look at the role of a mother; the RealCare simulators are truly a great addition to the museum, and they will help engage them through their visit."

RealCare Baby is a state-of-the-art computerized infant simulator that provides a realistic hands-on experience of caring for a newborn infant. The simulators are used in thousands of schools and organizations around the world to help teach infant care skills, and provide a learning experience about the commitment required to be a parent. Also featured is the RealCare Pregnancy Profile which simulates the third trimester of pregnancy. Visitors will have the opportunity to wear the profiles while touring the exhibit.

"Having our programs as part of the Museum of Motherhood is very exciting for us," said Timmothy Boettcher, President of Realityworks. "Our programs encourage learning through an experience. We hope our simulators will not only engage their visitors, but also give them insight into the role of a mother."

M.O.M. is located at 401 East 84th St.(at 1st Ave.), New York. It opened September 1 and will be open until December 31. For more information visit www.mommuseum.org . For more information on Realityworks programs visit www.realityworks.com.

2011-09-13
Exposure to the light of white LED bulbs, it turns out, suppresses melatonin 5 times more than exposure to the light of High Pressure Sodium bulbs that give off an orange-yellow light. "Just as there are regulations and standards for 'classic' pollutants, there should also be regulations and rules for the pollution stemming from artificial light at night," says Prof. Abraham Haim of the University of Haifa. "White" light bulbs that emit light at shorter wavelengths are greater suppressors of the body's production of melatonin than bulbs emitting orange-yellow light, ...

Women who inherit BRCA gene mutations develop cancer earlier than their ancestors

2011-09-13
A new analysis has found that women who develop certain hereditary cancers develop them at earlier ages than women in the previous generation. Published early online in CANCER, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society, the results point to the importance of tracking younger ages of cancer diagnosis to determine when to provide counseling, screening, and treatment services. Women who have mutations in the BRCA genes have a high risk of developing breast and ovarian cancers at young ages. Mutations in these genes are often inherited, so multiple family members ...

OAI: Mo. Auto Insurance Cos. Will See Less Red Tape for Mobile Claims Centers

2011-09-13
Missourians could have an easier time filing damage claims on their inexpensive auto insurance and other policies the next time a natural disaster strikes that state. That's because a new state law prohibits towns and cities from forcing coverage providers to obtain business licenses before they can set up emergency claim-processing centers to serve customers in storm-damaged areas. State officials say that type of bureaucratic holdup happened on multiple occasions this year in Missouri, where residents struggled with several tornadoes, including one in the city ...
