The TONI&GUY Charitable Foundation is thrilled to announce that its Summer Soiree was a great success.

London, England, United Kingdom – June 12, 2024 /PR Fire/ —

The TONI&GUY Charitable Foundation is thrilled to announce that our Summer Soiree was a great success. We used an innovative approach to raise money trough immersive experiences aimed at supporting the TONI&GUY ward at King’s College Hospital. 

The event, took place on 8th June 2024 at the Mascolo family’s private residential estate, offering an enchanting evening of immersive fundraising experiences and the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of critically ill children, their families, and the NHS staff who support them.

The TONI&GUY Charitable Foundation, established in 2003 by the late Toni Mascolo OBE and his wife Pauline, had been dedicated to supporting various charitable causes, with a focus on improving the lives of those in need. The Summer Soiree was a testament to the Foundation’s commitment to continuing Toni and Pauline’s mission and legacy.

Lilia Mascolo, Director and trustee of the TONI&GUY Charitable Foundation expressed her delight with the success of Saturday evening’s fundraiser: “We are thrilled with the incredible reception of our innovative summer soirée, a groundbreaking concept in immersive fundraising. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, and we are deeply grateful for the generous support of our sponsors, who made this event possible. It was an honour to have the renowned Nobu Hotel London Portman Square serve their culinary masterpieces, adding a touch of elegance to the evening. We extend a special thanks to Steven Webster for donating a diamond for our exclusive raffle. The funds raised will make a significant impact on the TONI&GUY Ward at King’s College Hospital, and we are humbled by the community’s support for this worthy cause.”

The event was a huge success which saw Pierre and Lilia Mascolo host 250 guests including Prince Jerome Luc Muniglia de’Giustiani, Karen Millen OBE, Amanda Cronin, Pablo Damian Cristi, Laura Pradelska, Peggy Rose, HRH Katarina of Yugoslavia. Andrea Mclean also was in attendance hosting the evenings raffle and auction. Violinist Lettice Rowbotham also performed. 

Guests enjoyed welcome canapes from Nobu Catering, brought by Nobu Hotel London Portman Square, while the Italian Chefs Association provided catering throughout the evening. The evening’s exclusive wine supplier was Think Wine while spirits and cocktails were provided by Labo, and by Solaro Capri. 

The Summer Soiree marked the first time the TONI&GUY Charitable Foundation introduced immersive fundraising experiences, offering guests a unique and engaging way to support the cause. Attendees had the opportunity to participate in interactive installations, once-in-a-lifetime experiences, and other innovative activities designed to raise awareness and funds for the TONI&GUY ward at King’s College Hospital. This fresh approach to fundraising aimed to inspire and connect guests with the Foundation’s mission in a memorable and impactful way.

The event had already garnered significant support from socially conscious friends and partnering businesses such as Nobu Catering, brought by Nobu Hotel London Portman Square, providing the welcome canapés. Nobu chefs traveled from their kitchens to Summerdown Manor to cook up internationally renowned Japanese-Peruvian cuisine in front of guests, allowing them to interact and taste incredible creations, giving them the ultimate “at-home” Nobu experience. Numerous luxury brands also generously donated to help bring truly immersive experiences to life. Their contributions played a crucial role in helping the Foundation make a positive impact on the lives of those who benefit from the TONI&GUY ward at King’s College Hospital.

Proceeds from the Summer Soiree will directly benefit the TONI&GUY ward, enabling the hospital to continue to provide the best possible treatment and facilities for young patients and their families. The Foundation’s ongoing support had been instrumental in ensuring that the ward remained at the forefront of pediatric care.

The TONI&GUY Charitable Foundation extends its heartfelt gratitude to all supporters, donors, and partnering businesses for their unwavering commitment to making a difference in the lives of those who need it most. “Together, we can continue and carry on my mother and father’s legacy, creating a brighter future for seriously ill children and their families,” added Pierre Mascolo, Chairman of the Foundation and son of the late Toni Mascolo, OBE.

H&A Queens Plumbing is a licensed and insured plumbing company serving residential and commercial properties in Queens, New York. Its services include maintenance, repair, and emergency plumbing for water and sewer repair, drain cleaning, and more.

Queens, New York, United States – June 12, 2024 —

A sudden pipe leak, a clogged sewer line, a low water pressure, or plumbing issues can arise at any moment, unannounced. Seemingly minor, these issues can impact homeowners’ daily routines and disrupt businesses like restaurants and large offices in Queens, New York. The good news is that H&A Queens Plumbing is available for any emergency plumbing, whether gas line installation and repair or needing a licensed plumber to install new faucets or hot water. 

According to H&A plumbers, Queens and other localities in NYC report that clogged drains, leaks, and low water pressures are the most common plumbing woes. Moreover, New York’s freeze-thaw cycles in winter can cause burst pipes, especially in older plumbing systems and without proper maintenance. They recommend periodic maintenance and timely repair as a solid defence against these common plumbing issues. 

Clogged drains are perhaps the most frequent problem in residential and commercial properties in Queens and other localities in New York. This can be due to grease, hair, and other debris accumulation in pipes, which can cause complete blockage or slow drainage. Although standard DIY techniques like using boiling water to loosen the blockage or plungers to remove soft debris in bathroom sinks might be effective for minor issues, if the clog persists or seems severe, it’s best to call a professional plumber. 

It makes sense because trained plumbers have the equipment and knowledge to do a comprehensive inspection and determine whether the pipes have cracks or are corroded and if something else is causing the blockage. For instance, an H&A plumber in Queens, NY, can use heavy-duty drain snakes to reach deeper clogs, hydro jetting to clear build-ups or customize the approach after an inspection. 

“Had a leak in the ceiling and needed a emergency plumber, I tried calling like 10 different companies and nobody would even answer. These guys answered the first time I called and came out pretty quickly, finished the job. Very reliable people. Definitely recommend. Thank you.” – Aquib Memon, Google Reviews.

Similarly, plumbing issues can be complex and inconvenient if they are related to toilets, bathrooms, and kitchens. These are the most basic amenities that need to be functional, whether a downtown restaurant or a Queens home. Some issues, like gas leaks, can be dangerous and should be resolved quickly to avoid unintended disasters. H&A Queens Plumbing has qualified technicians for emergency plumbing and gas line repair or installation requirements.

About the company: H&A Queens Plumbing is a full-service plumbing company in Queens, New York.

Washington, DC, United States – June 12, 2024 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

In the Nation’s Capital, Chief of Police Pamela A. Smith presented Thalia Ghiglia with the Chief of Police Special Award in recognition of Ghiglia’s “outstanding service to the District of Columbia and her contributions to the Metropolitan Police Department.” Ghiglia is the Faith Liaison for the Foundation for a Drug-Free World of Washington, DC,.

Citing Ghiglia’s contributions, the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) award praised her work. “For example, Ghiglia has given classes to students in the community on behalf of the Drug-Free World Foundation. A member of MPD Chief Pamela Smith’s Faith Advisory Council, Ghiglia frequently participates in community walks and other events… Ghiglia (has) been a tremendous asset to MPD and 4D [4th District Police area] would not be the same without her.”

“This means everything to me,” said Ghiglia. “Other awardees, both this year and in past years, civilian and sworn, have served as examples to me in my approach to the community. I am extremely proud to share their company. And the individuals we have partnered with over the last nine years at MPD are consummate professionals, completely dedicated to serving this community and making it a better place for everyone. It has been my privilege to work alongside them.”

United States – June 12, 2024 —

Astro Fun World, a leading name in family entertainment, has unveiled its 60,000-square-foot indoor glow-in-the-dark amusement center. Located just 30 minutes from downtown Chicago, this entertainment center offers families a unique and fun experience, enhancing Chicago’s already vibrant amusement park scene.

The Windy City lives up to its name with its unique location. While Chicago is known as a financial hub, it is much more than just that, according to Ron Beem of Astro Fun World. There is much to see and experience, especially with its wide range of museums, entertainment centers, and concerts. The city offers various entertainment options, from GoKarts and arcade games to amusement parks, ensuring family fun.

“This is where Astro Fun World comes into the picture,” says Beem. Situated in the bustling Chicago metropolitan area, Astro Fun World offers different attractions for various interests and age groups.

The entertainment center boasts ten major attractions, including electric GoKarts, mini golf, a ropes course, a zip line, and five climbing walls. Families can enjoy virtual reality rides, kid-friendly axe throwing, a laser maze, laser tag, a three-level playground, kiddie rides, a UFO spinning ride, and over 100 arcade games. In addition, the entertainment center features private party rooms available for booking, a full-service restaurant, and a bar.

The electric GoKarts are a go-to attraction at the entertainment center. They offer an exciting racing experience on a glow-in-the-dark track and can reach speeds of up to 30 mph, depending on the age and ability of the drivers.

The laser maze offers another fun challenge for families. In this game, players can test their agility by navigating through a web of lasers without triggering alarms. Equipped with the latest laser guns, the laser tag arena lets players create their own avatars and engage in thrilling battles.

Meanwhile, rock climbing enthusiasts can also find fun things to do with the center’s five climbing walls, including an 18-foot Rubik’s Cube wall, an augmented reality climbing wall, and pole walkers. The climbing structures are designed to accommodate individuals over 48 inches tall and up to 300 pounds.

Astro Fun World’s wide range of attractions ensures there is something for everyone, says Beem. The center is conveniently situated 30-40 minutes from Chicago’s airports and the Loop, which means its easily accessible for both locals and tourists.

Astro Fun World’s private party rooms can be booked for birthday parties, debuts, moving-up party for friends, and other special events.

Tess Mann Atelier embraces slow fashion with sustainable practices and bespoke designs, prioritizing quality, ethical production, and innovative materials.

Silver Point, Tennessee, United States – June 12, 2024 —

United States-based fashion brand Tess Mann Atelier is proud to announce its commitment to the principles of the slow fashion movement. Founded by fashion designer Tess Mann, the atelier emphasizes quality, sustainability, and ethical production.

The slow fashion movement advocates for mindful consumption, sustainability, and a deeper connection between consumers and their clothing. By emphasizing quality over quantity, ethical production methods, and sustainable sourcing, slow fashion aims to reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry and promote a more sustainable future.

“Our commitment to slow fashion is not just about creating beautiful garments; it’s about ensuring that every piece we produce contributes positively to our environment and society. By prioritizing sustainable practices, ethical production, and innovative materials, we aim to lead the industry towards a more responsible and mindful future,” says Tess Mann, founder and fashion designer of Tess Mann Atelier.

Commitment to Slow Fashion: 

In an industry often criticized for its environmental impact and unsustainable practices, Tess Mann Atelier distinguishes itself by prioritizing quality over quantity. Each garment is crafted to ensure longevity, reducing the need for frequent replacements—a cornerstone of the slow fashion philosophy. This dedication to durability not only benefits the consumer but also contributes to a significant reduction in textile waste.

Sustainable Sourcing: 

Tess Mann’s commitment to sustainability begins with the sourcing of materials. The atelier’s fabrics are procured directly from regions in India, where the manufacturing company is located. By sourcing from the manufacturing company’s region, Tess Mann Atelier minimizes the carbon footprint associated with the transportation of materials. This practice aligns with the principles of renewable consumption, reducing the environmental impact and supporting local economies.

Ethical Production:  

Despite overseas production, Tess Mann Atelier maintains a close relationship between maker and consumer by limiting the shipping of custom orders. This approach supports sustainability and ensures that each piece is crafted with the highest ethical standards in mind. The streamlined production process further emphasizes the atelier’s dedication to environmental responsibility.

Fine Materials:  

In contrast to the low-quality fabrics often used in fast fashion, Tess Mann Atelier exclusively utilizes high-quality, luxury materials. These fabrics not only enhance the durability and comfort of each garment but also promote a timelessness that encourages consumers to invest in pieces that will last.

Custom Designs:  

A hallmark of Tess Mann Atelier is its focus on custom, bespoke designs. By creating garments to order rather than mass-producing them, the atelier significantly reduces waste. This personalized approach ensures that each piece is a perfect fit for the customer, both in style and in sustainability. The bespoke model reflects a deep commitment to sustainable consumption practices, offering a responsible alternative to mass-market fashion.

Recycling and Upcycling:  

Tess Mann Atelier is dedicated to recycling and upcycling materials to minimize waste. The atelier uses surplus fabrics and pieces from other completed design creations in new voile samples and patterns, thereby reducing the materials dumped in landfills. TMA develops new ready-to-wear styles from previous season wedding gowns, taking apart older, less popular dresses and dyeing the fabric where appropriate to create jackets, blazers, pants, jumpsuits, blouses, and cocktail dresses. This practice not only decreases waste but also breathes new life into previously overlooked materials. Additionally, Tess Mann sources deadstock materials from other brands and fashion houses, repurposing fabrics that would otherwise go unused.

Textile Research and Development:  

Tess Mann Atelier is committed to the research and development of innovative textiles and fabric alternatives. The atelier explores newly developed materials made from recycled excess, evaluating their suitability for clothing. This commitment to discovery and innovation ensures that Tess Mann Atelier remains at the forefront of sustainable fashion.

Safe Sourcing Practices:  

Tess Mann Atelier prioritizes sourcing materials that do not harm manufacturing laborers. The atelier is committed to ensuring that its fabrics are produced without exposing workers to toxic solvents and chemicals, which can cause serious lifelong illnesses. This ethical approach to sourcing materials is integral to TMA’s mission of promoting a safer and more responsible fashion industry.

Get Involved:

Tess Mann Atelier invites fashion editors, bloggers, specialty boutiques, and industry content creators to participate in this exciting journey. Opportunities for collaboration include gifting suite placements, showroom placements, celebrity and influencer collaborations, retail distribution, and media partnerships.

Joseph Haymore, a name synonymous with philanthropy and animal welfare, has recently made headlines with his latest venture: a charity dedicated to dog adoption in Florida.

Florida, United States – June 12, 2024 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

Joseph Haymore, a name synonymous with philanthropy and animal welfare, has recently made headlines with his latest venture: a charity dedicated to dog adoption in Florida. Haymore’s unwavering commitment to improving the lives of abandoned and homeless dogs has culminated in the establishment of a groundbreaking organization aimed at finding loving homes for these animals.

Haymore’s journey towards founding this charity began with a personal experience that profoundly impacted his life. A lifelong dog lover, Haymore adopted his first rescue dog, Bella, from a local shelter. Bella, a mixed-breed with soulful eyes and a gentle disposition, quickly became a cherished member of the Haymore family. This experience opened Joseph’s eyes to the plight of countless dogs languishing in shelters, waiting for a chance to find their forever homes.

Determined to make a difference, Haymore embarked on a mission to create a charity that would not only facilitate dog adoptions but also raise awareness about the importance of rescuing animals from shelters. In 2023, after years of planning and preparation, Haymore officially launched “Paws for Hope,” a charity with a singular focus: to provide a second chance for dogs in need.

Paws for Hope operates on a multi-faceted approach to dog adoption. At its core, the charity aims to reduce the number of dogs in shelters by promoting adoption through various initiatives. One of the key components of this strategy is the establishment of a network of foster homes. By placing dogs in temporary foster care, Paws for Hope ensures that these animals receive the love, attention, and training they need while waiting for their permanent families.

Additionally, Paws for Hope organizes regular adoption events throughout Florida, bringing together potential adopters and dogs in a welcoming and supportive environment. These events are designed to create a stress-free experience for both the dogs and the prospective owners, increasing the likelihood of successful adoptions. Haymore believes that meeting dogs in a relaxed setting allows their true personalities to shine, making it easier for adopters to find their perfect match.

Education is another cornerstone of Paws for Hope’s mission. The charity offers a range of educational programs aimed at promoting responsible pet ownership and the benefits of adopting rescue dogs. Workshops, seminars, and community outreach initiatives are conducted to inform the public about the realities of pet overpopulation and the critical role that adoption plays in addressing this issue. By fostering a culture of compassion and responsibility, Haymore hopes to create a community that values and prioritizes the welfare of animals.

Funding for Paws for Hope comes from a combination of donations, grants, and fundraising events. Haymore’s tireless efforts to secure financial support have been instrumental in the charity’s success. His dedication has inspired many individuals and businesses to contribute to the cause, ensuring that Paws for Hope has the resources needed to continue its vital work.

Joseph Haymore’s vision for Paws for Hope extends beyond simply finding homes for dogs. He envisions a future where every dog in Florida has a safe, loving home and where the concept of adopting rescue animals is embraced by society at large. Through his unwavering dedication and innovative approach, Haymore is making significant strides toward achieving this goal.

In a world where countless dogs are in need of homes, Joseph Haymore stands out as a beacon of hope and compassion. His charity, Paws for Hope, is transforming the landscape of dog adoption in Florida, offering a lifeline to dogs and a source of joy for countless families. Haymore’s work serves as a reminder that one person can indeed make a difference, and his legacy of love and dedication will undoubtedly continue to inspire others to join the cause.

Citizens Commission on Human Rights calls for government action to make prescribers and caregivers of the elderly aware of the wider range of serious risks to dementia patients from antipsychotic drugs and to curtail the wrongful use of the drugs.

Washington, DC – June 12, 2024 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

Citizens Commission on Human Rights (CCHR) is calling attention to new research that has found a wider range of serious or life-threatening risks to elderly patients with dementia from taking antipsychotic drugs than what is currently found in drug regulatory agency warnings. Despite previously known safety concerns, antipsychotic drugs continue to be prescribed to older adults for psychological and behavioral symptoms common to dementia. More than two million Americans over the age of 65 are currently prescribed antipsychotic drugs.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires that all antipsychotics include a black box warning, its most serious type of warning, stating that the psychiatric drugs are associated with increased rates of stroke and death in older adults with dementia.

In a new study, researchers in the U.K. recently went beyond those two known risks, investigating 20 years of medical records for more than 200,000 patients 50 years of age and older with dementia, to look for conclusive evidence of other adverse effects from antipsychotics.  

They found that antipsychotic use was linked to “a considerably wider range of harms” for older adults with dementia than previously known and that the greatest risks of these serious or life-threatening events occurred soon after the drugs were first taken.

“Antipsychotic use compared with non-use in adults with dementia was associated with increased risks of stroke, venous thromboembolism [blood clot in a vein], myocardial infarction [heart attack], heart failure, fracture, pneumonia, and acute kidney injury,” wrote Pearl L. H. Mok, PhD, of the Centre for Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety at the University of Manchester in the U.K.

Mok emphasized the importance of the findings: “The range of adverse outcomes was wider than previously highlighted in regulatory alerts, with the highest risks soon after initiation of treatment.” 

Beyond the additional safety concerns, the researchers also noted that “the efficacy of antipsychotics in the management of behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia remains inconclusive.” 

In spite of this potentially negative risk-benefit ratio, antipsychotic prescribing in dementia treatment remains common and has even increased in recent years, Mok and colleagues write. They suggest that further regulatory and legislative action may be needed to curtail dangerous prescribing practices. Their study was published earlier this year in the British medical journal, The BMJ.

“With the latest research showing even greater risks of very serious harm to older adults with dementia from antipsychotics, the FDA and other government agencies should take action now to make the harms more widely known and curtail the rampant prescribing of these psychiatric drugs to such a vulnerable population,” said Anne Goedeke, president of the CCHR National Affairs Office. “Prescribers and caregivers of the elderly need to know that these drugs can put lives even more at risk than previously known.”

After investigating the practice of giving elderly nursing home patients a psychiatric diagnosis of schizophrenia as a rationale for then prescribing antipsychotic drugs, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of the Inspector General issued a report in 2022 which disclosed that from 2015 through 2019, the number of nursing home residents reported as having schizophrenia nearly tripled (194%).

The HHS report found that, taking all classes of psychiatric drugs into account, eight in 10 nursing home residents were prescribed some type of psychiatric drug each year from 2011 to 2019. Critics call this drugging “chemical straightjackets.” The report found that nursing homes with stretched staffing had higher use of psychotropic drugs, suggesting the drugs were used to subdue patients to ease the workload of staff.

Following that report, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) launched its own investigation in 2023 into residents of nursing homes being falsely reported as having schizophrenia so they could be inappropriately sedated with antipsychotic drugs.

Researchers in another 2024 study examined whether overprescribing could be curtailed by warning letters sent by CMS to primary care physicians with the highest-volume prescribing of the antipsychotic drug quetiapine (Seroquel) for Medicare patients with dementia. The result was that the warning letters significantly reduced the doctors’ antipsychotic drug prescribing, with no adverse impact on the cognitive, behavioral, or physical health of the dementia patients – more evidence of the wrongful use of these psychiatric drugs with dementia patients.

About the company: The Citizens Commission on Human Rights was co-founded in 1969 by members of the Church of Scientology and the late psychiatrist and humanitarian Thomas Szasz, M.D., recognized by many academics as modern psychiatry’s most authoritative critic, to eradicate abuse and restore human rights and dignity to the field of mental health.

Bering Seafood Company, a pioneer in the seafood industry dedicated to ecological sustainability, proudly announces its latest venture: the search for a location in the USA to establish a state-of-the-art salmon farming facility.

Monroe County, Pennsylvania, United States – June 12, 2024 —

Building on their extensive expertise in the fishing and processing industry, the founders are poised to transform the American aquaculture landscape with their innovative and environmentally conscious practices.

Pioneering Sustainable Aquaculture with Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS)

Since its inception in 2022, Bering Seafood Company has been committed to producing high-quality seafood products while prioritizing environmental stewardship. The company successfully applied advanced Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) in their operations in Kamchatka, showcasing their dedication to sustainability. RAS is renowned for its water-saving capabilities, minimal environmental footprint, and high productivity, making it an ideal solution for modern aquaculture.

RAS systems operate within a controlled indoor environment, significantly reducing the environmental risks associated with traditional fish farming methods. These systems mitigate issues such as habitat destruction, water pollution, and disease outbreaks, ensuring that the aquaculture process is both efficient and environmentally friendly. By recycling water and maintaining optimal conditions for fish growth, RAS minimizes resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, aligning perfectly with Bering Seafood Company’s zero-waste production goals.

A Vision for the Future: Environmentally Friendly and Zero-Waste Production

Bering Seafood Company is now looking for an ideal state and location in the USA to develop a salmon farm that will enhance local food security and set new standards for ecological responsibility in the aquaculture sector. The company’s founders, who have extensive experience in fish farming and processing, are committed to preserving natural resources and maintaining the pristine condition of protected areas. Their approach integrates scientific research and innovative technologies to ensure the highest quality products while minimizing environmental impact.

Key features of the planned facility include:

• High-Tech Processing: Equipped with modern machinery, the farm will streamline fish processing to guarantee the freshest and most natural products for consumers.
• Scientific Innovation: The farm will apply cutting-edge scientific developments to achieve waste-free production, utilizing every part of the fish and reducing environmental impact.
• Expert Team: A team of seasoned professionals will oversee the farming and processing operations, ensuring adherence to the highest standards of quality and sustainability.

Commitment to Ecological and Economic Benefits

The future salmon farm represents a significant investment in both the local economy and the broader environment. By creating jobs and supporting the local community, Bering Seafood Company will contribute to regional economic growth. Moreover, the farm’s sustainable practices will serve as a model for future aquaculture projects, demonstrating that economic success and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.

Building on a Legacy of Excellence

The founders of Bering Seafood Company bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to this new venture. Having successfully managed fish and seafood facilities in the ecologically sensitive region of Kamchatka, they are adept at balancing high productivity with environmental protection. This expertise will be crucial in developing a farm that not only meets but exceeds industry standards for sustainability.

Engaging with the Community and the Industry

Bering Seafood Company’s participation in the Seafood Expo North America in Boston has already established it as a key player in the industry. The company’s innovative practices and commitment to sustainability have garnered attention and acclaim, setting the stage for its ambitious plans in the USA.

As Bering Seafood Company embarks on this new chapter, it remains steadfast in its mission to produce premium seafood products while safeguarding the environment. The new salmon farm will be a testament to the company’s dedication to innovation, sustainability, and community engagement.
