New Children’s Books from Award-Winning TV Producer Conquer Both Bedtime and Book Reviews

NEW YORK, N.Y. -- "Dream Grabber" and "Dream Jumper," the magical and heartwarming books that have changed bedtime rituals for children everywhere, are now available to purchase in soft cover. From Emmy Award-Winning TV Producer and Writer John R. Green, the two companion pieces have been met with remarkable praise and gained an instant fan base with children and grown-ups alike. To help combat fears and the all-too-familiar battle for lights out, the author created a fanciful and safe world where a heroic father has the ability to defeat his son's nightmares and jump into dreams to embark on fantastical adventures with his daughter.

"'Dream Grabber' is a charming and delightful bedtime story, beautifully validating a universal childhood fear rather than dismissing it," says Kim Bergman, PhD, Licensed Psychologist. Each book encourages nurturing bedtime routines and helps children understand that dreamland should be an enjoyable and secure place to be.

Since their release in hardcover in November 2020, "Dream Grabber" and "Dream Jumper" have quickly caught the attention of a myriad of publications, as well as local and national news shows including the prestigious accolade of being named one of "Good Morning America's" Favorite Books of 2020.

"Good Morning America" Co-Anchor Robin Roberts shared, "'Dream Jumper' will have you jumping for joy! Such a heartwarming read with beautiful illustrations." While Lori Greiner, Inventor, Entrepreneur and Co-Host on ABC-TV's "Shark Tank" proclaimed, "I just adore "Dream Grabber" and its companion book "Dream Jumper." John R. Green has brilliantly created two wonderful books that turn bedtime and dreaming into a magical worry-free time for kids ... a must for every home!"

In "Dream Grabber," a loving father shows his little boy how to overcome his fear of going to sleep by sharing his secret ability to grab bad dreams and replace them with beautiful ones that float invisibly in the air. In "Dream Jumper" a little girl, who deeply dreads being alone in her dreams, is comforted by her father when he reveals that he has magical powers allowing him to jump into her dreams while they are both asleep. She imagines him flying on a unicorn and sliding down rainbows into a pool of teddy bears.

The first kids' books written by John R. Green, "Dream Grabber" and "Dream Jumper" also happened to be based on bedtime rituals he created to help his own two children face their fears upon falling asleep. In addition to the distinctive and timeless hardcover, the new soft cover of both books is now available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble through Archway Publishing, a division of Simon & Schuster.

Mag Instrument, the USA manufacturer of the MAGLITE Flashlight, celebrates World Amateur Radio Day by joining forces with ARRL, the national association for Amateur Radio

ONTARIO, Calif. -- In celebration of World Amateur Radio Day on April 18, Maglite and ARRL, the national association for Amateur Radio®, have announced they have formed a partnership based on the common mission of helping people be prepared for emergencies and to serve their communities in extreme situations such as natural disasters.

ARRL member-volunteers provide public service through the ARRL Amateur Radio Emergency Service® (ARES®), and by expanding the reservoir of trained operators and technicians in radio communications and radio technology. Mag Instrument is the leading maker of U.S.-manufactured high-quality flashlights that have a deserved reputation for performance, reliability and durability.

"Amateur radio operators, or 'hams,' help people in times of difficulty, often by supporting emergency communications when critical infrastructure is damaged, and by responding to the needs of first responders to keep connected," said Anthony Maglica, Founder, Owner and CEO of MAG Instrument Inc. "We manufacture a product that has been used in public safety for over 40 years and we are very supportive of the incredible dedication of radio amateurs, so culturally this is a great alliance for both brands."

MAGLITE® is the preferred flashlight brand of many police, fire and other first responder organizations and is the official flashlight of NASAR - the National Association of Search and Rescue. The partnership with ARRL will entail Mag Instrument creating special laser engraved Maglite® product for ARRL as well as offering their members special pricing on a select line of Maglite products, and in turn, those purchases raise funds for ARRL to support their mission.

"ARRL is delighted that Maglite recognizes the service and skill of ARRL members. This partnership will help us introduce amateur radio to more people," says David Minster, NA2AA, ARRL CEO.

ARRL, headquartered in Newington, Connecticut, counts the majority of active radio amateurs in the US among its ranks. Since ARRL's founding in 1914, its members have advanced the art, science, and enjoyment of amateur radio. For more information about ARRL and World Amateur Radio Day, visit http://www.arrl.org/.

New, high performance weekly signals are now available for ETF future and option traders

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- HottingerSignals.com, LLC is proud to announce the release of its newest algorithm for producing weekly trading signals on 5 ETF's: SPY, QQQ, GLD, IWM, XBI, and their parallel E-Mini futures.

The previous algorithms Hottinger Signals had been using were not providing a signal each week (due to market volatility caused by the covid virus). This new algorithm does produce a signal each week for each of these ETF's.

Back-testing, which used data as far back as 2000, produced truly remarkable results:

* Winning percentages were above 70%, and profit factors well above 4.

"We are extremely pleased with this latest effort," said Fritz Hottinger, the company's CEO & President. "We have been writing stock market trading algorithms since 1978, and this one is our most successful to date. There were no results worse than 70% and the profit factors ranged between 3.98 and 7.39, with an average of 5.47."

He pointed out that these new results are based on the same formula used in all their other trading algorithms:

The trade entry is based on the Monday Open, and the exit is based on the Friday Close. "We do not presume to know any trader's individual tolerance for risk. Thus, funds are exposed for no more than 5 days, and we use the maximum time to calculate the results of our signals."

"However, we believe most traders will make their exits mid-week. In fact, we are now publishing the possible Index Point gain for each weekly signal. The week closing April 5, our 5 signals produced 38.63 potential Index Points. And over 8 weeks these 5 signals have averaged 5.81 Index Points. This includes both long and short trades."

About HottingerSignals:

HottingerSignals has a long history of providing information for trading the markets. They began to sell signals in 1990, prior to the introduction of the internet (6 Aug, 1991), and were the developers of the E-Zone System, which they sold in 2014. Their first algorithm was developed while studying with Ibbotson (Stock Market Theory) and Roberts (Progressive Statistics) in the University of Chicago's MBA course in 1978. They strive to continue providing traders with the most accurate signals by including a self-correcting feature in each of their algorithms. ETF index future and option traders are invited to explore HottingerSignals history as well as the back-tested results for this newest trading algorithm and to take advantage of their free trial at https://hottingersignals.com/.

Move For Hunger and northAmerican Van Lines Renew Partnership and Host Their Largest Hunger Fighting Initiative

RED BANK, N.J. -- northAmerican® Van Lines, a leader in relocation services, and Move For Hunger, a national hunger relief non-profit organization, announced today their renewed partnership that will help provide much-needed assistance to food banks across the United States. As a partner, northAmerican® Van Lines will support Move For Hunger's food rescue and hunger relief programs.

To date, Move For Hunger's network of relocation professionals and multi-family properties has collected and delivered more than 22 million pounds of food - providing over 18 million meals - to food banks and pantries across the United States and Canada.

Move For Hunger and northAmerican® Van Lines have been partners since 2011 and have 76 participating agents as part of the Move For Hunger network. Over the past eight years, northAmerican® Van Lines and its agents have helped transport over half a million meals to those in need.

During the week of April 5 - 11, the two companies combined to host the Great northAmerican® Food Drive, an initiative that brought together 32 food drives hosted by different northAmerican® Van Line agents spread across 18 different states and Canada. The week-long initiative collected 25,700 pounds of food which is the equivalent of 21,500 meals. The food was distributed to local food banks in various cities.

"northAmerican Van Lines has been an amazing supporter of ours since our early days," says Adam Lowy, Executive Director and Founder of Move For Hunger. "When they approached us with this idea of holding 30+ food drives simultaneously, we jumped at the opportunity. While we host hundreds of food drives every year, we have never done one on this scale before."

"Food insecurity has always been a big issue in the United States and Canada, but the pandemic has amplified the need. Food pantries have been hit with unprecedented requests for food from individuals and families directly impacted by COVID-19," said Kevin Murphy, Vice President and General Manager of northAmerican® Van Lines. "northAmerican and its agent network are committed to supporting the communities we serve in any way possible. We are proud and honored to partner with Move for Hunger, an organization that is truly making a difference in the fight against hunger."

Food insecurity touches every community in the country. At the start of the pandemic 37 million Americans were going hungry and due to the pandemic that increased to 42 million Americans including 13 million children. Move For Hunger rose to the challenge by transporting 40% more food in 2020 than its previous record-setting year in 2019. Through the support of partners like northAmerican® Van Lines and its parent company SIRVA who is also a partner, Move For Hunger can continue to fight for the families, individuals, and children who are most in need of food assistance.

About Move For Hunger

Move For Hunger (501(c)(3) is a national non-profit organization that has created a sustainable way to reduce food waste and fight hunger. We have mobilized the leaders of moving, relocation, and multi-family industries to provide their customers, clients, and residents with the opportunity to donate their food when they move. Members of Move For Hunger also organize community food drives, participate in awareness campaigns, and create employee engagement programs.
