Husband and wife, Buck and Jo Stein, and friend Jim Turner pulled off the nearly impossible on Friday, April 17th, making three aces on Calvert Crossing Golf Club’s 124-yard, par-3 5th hole.

“Three aces on the same hole, on the same day is absolutely incredible,” said Kevin LaFontaine, general manager, Calvert Crossing Golf Club. “I’m thrilled for Mr. and Mrs. Stein and Mr. Turner!”

CALHOUN, La. (PRWEB)
April 28, 2020

Husband and wife, Buck and Jo Stein, and friend Jim Turner pulled off the nearly impossible on Friday, April 17th, making three aces on Calvert Crossing Golf Club’s 124-yard, par-3 5th hole. The odds of this amazing occurrence are about the same as winning the Powerball. The probability of an average golfer making a hole-in-one is roughly 12,000 to 1. The chances of two people acing the same hole, on the same day, from the same foursome are roughly 64 million to 1 range – according to the National Hole-In-One Registry. Add in a third person, hitting from the same tees and the statistics are off the charts.

Buck Stein, age 79, and Turner, age 87, were paired together as part of a foursome in the club’s senior outing and teed off at 9 a.m., while Jo Stein, age 75, played with friends Harolyn Falgoust and Angela Martin and teed off at 10:10 a.m.

Upon arriving at the 5th hole, Turner was third to play and hit an 8-iron from 124 yards, while Buck Stein went last (fourth) and hit a 9-iron from the same distance, noting the pin was just below the second tier of the green or center- left of the green.

“All of the other players were already in their carts ready to drive to the green and nobody knew that either of our balls were in the hole until pulling up to the green,” said Buck Stein. “It was unbelievable that both balls stayed in the cup with the foam COVID-19 blocks in place.”

I could not believe it,” said Turner. “I was so struck with excitement, I only took a photo of the balls in the cup and did not think to ask the group to take a photo of Buck and me together, but then we could not get close or high-five anyway under all the COVID restrictions.”

About an hour later, Jo Stein used a 5-wood, “for some added distance, as the wind had picked up,” from 124 yards.

“I thought the ball was real close to the pin,” explained Jo Stein. “I asked Angela Martin if it was in and she used her range finder to see the ball. Angela then jumped up and down screaming ‘It’s in the hole!’”

Married for 56 years, the Stein’s have played at Calvert Crossing an estimated 2,000 times over the last 18 years, but had never aced the short par-3. In fact, Buck and Jo have a 3.3 and 3.5 scoring average respectively on the hole. Turner estimates that he’s played the course 2,080 times over his 20 years at the Club and carries a 3.3 scoring average on the hole.

Buck Stein has had six previous holes-in-one, while Jo Stein has had one previous ace, on the par-3 17th hole at Calvert Crossing in 2015. Turner has had two previous aces – 40 years ago at Pine Hills and 10 years ago on the second hole at Calvert Crossing.

“The bar is not open at Calvert Crossing during the COVID-19 crisis, so Harolyn, Angela and I plan to celebrate after the restrictions are lifted,” said Jo Stein.

“If the bar had been open, there would have been some celebration for sure,” added Buck Stein. “Instead, we called family members and friends to tell them about the holes-in-one.”

Buck Stein has been playing golf for about 50 years, and Jo has been playing approximately 38 years. Jo plays regularly with Ms. Falgoust and Ms. Martin, while Buck and Jo play together an average of three to five times per month. Turner started playing golf in high school and has never had a golf lesson. Turner and Buck Stein are usually paired together one to two times per month.

“Three aces on the same hole, on the same day is absolutely incredible,” said Kevin LaFontaine, general manager, Calvert Crossing Golf Club. “I’m thrilled for Mr. and Mrs. Stein and Mr. Turner!”

Managed by Troon’s Honours Golf division, Calvert Crossing Golf Club is located in the West Ouachita Parish of Louisiana and is one of the premier private golf clubs in the area. The Club features a modern, 18-hole layout co-designed by John Floyd (who worked under Jack Nicklaus) and Bill Zimmerebner, and is carved through the rolling hills of Calhoun. Members enjoy the beautiful and peaceful “walk in the woods” the golf course provides along with casual dining, and access to special member events.

Most kids and teens spend up to seven hours a day watching TV or engaging with a computer or phone.

MIAMI (PRWEB)
April 28, 2020

The former star of “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,” Laurence Fishburne, is the host of the educational show “In Depth”. The TV program discusses a wide array of topics that uniquely affect people of all demographics. An upcoming episode will feature industry professionals who will explore ways to encourage physical activity and engagement with children.

About 12.5 million youths are obese. Obesity in kids is on the rise, and the lack of consistent physical activity is not helping. Medical and nutrition experts recommend that children and adolescents engage in 60 minutes of physical activity daily. However, only 1 in 3 three children are physically active every day.

To promote physical activity and engagement in children, health professionals recommend finding physical activities that are equally age-appropriate and engaging for them, such as playing soccer, riding a bicycle, or swimming. Another recommended tip is to turn off the television and computer. Most kids and teens spend up to seven hours a day watching TV or engaging with a computer or phone. Limit overall daily screen time to 1-2 hours a day and use that free time for physical engagement and activities.

Since overweight adolescents have a 70% higher chance of becoming overweight or obese as an adult, it is imperative to encourage healthy exercise habits while they are young. “In Depth” will provide more details about how to promote physical engagement and activity with youths in the new episode airing soon. It will also discuss how the recent coronavirus pandemic has led to a steep increase in screen time for children.

“In Depth” with Laurence Fishburne is a cautiously examined television program before broadcast. The educational show has received numerous accolades.

Leefy Organics Will Participate In the Biggest Health Space Giveaway This Year on Instagram

In addition to donating their turmeric-based elixir PRANA to the medical community, Leefy Organics will be surprising some lucky social media followers.

Leefy Organics, maker of the great tasting, bioavailable turmeric and ginger supplement PRANA is joining forces with three other innovative products in the ultimate Instagram health and wellness giveaway. Sports Illustrated model and influencer Camille Kostek will host the event the week of Monday, April 27th choosing multiple winners.

Giveaway partners include health appliance innovator Tribest, contributing three $700 juicers; the indoor allergen air purifier Airdoctor, giving away two $650 air filters; and the at-home purified water system AquaTru, supplying one $300 water filter. Leefy Organics will surprise 20-30 winners with the signature PRANA elixir and some fun swag.

Brand founder and certified holistic nutritionist Carl Kuran is a fan of Kostek. As a Boston native, he admires the donation work she’s been coordinating within his locale during this pandemic. Kuran was further inspired when Kostek and her significant other, former New England Patriots player Rob Gronkowski donated 10,000 masks to Boston area hospitals.

He has since launched his own initiative giving back to some hard-working medical professionals who could use some immune-boosting turmeric and ginger.

“My niece is an RN at a hospital in Ohio and we already sent 10 bottles to their team of nurses because we realized they need to boost their immunity,” Kuran said.

“We’re doing our best to help those in the front lines who are putting themselves at risk everyday to help all of us,“ Kuran added.

At a time when everyone is monitoring their health and immune system, PRANA is the only organic, non-GMO, vegan and gluten-free formula providing superior absorption of much-needed nutrients in an easy-to-take liquid form. The elixir is best known for combatting congestion, inflammatory pain and poor digestion among other ailments.

About Leefy Organics: Carl Kuran is the certified holistic nutritionist and founder of Leefy Organics. As a firm believer in holistic healing and a passion to help others heal themselves, his attention turned to his mother’s health. She had such severe mucus congestion she couldn’t breathe or sleep, and her doctors weren’t finding a medical solution. While anti-inflammatory foods turmeric and ginger provided some relief, it wasn’t enough. After research and experimenting with different formulations, Kuran came to a breakthrough in more effective turmeric absorption. This miracle formula later became known as Prana, the signature product of Leefy Organics.

Lunches on Lawyers is a community-focused effort led by TorkLaw and Feher Law, APC, to feed the doctors, nurses, first responders and medical professionals who are battling the COVID-19 pandemic.

Lunches on Lawyers plays a vital role in ensuring that our medical professionals are receiving proper nutrition to fuel their minds and bodies for the important work they are doing in the battle against COVID-19.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
April 27, 2020

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to upend the world, many individuals and businesses are finding ways to step up and support the essential workers on the frontlines. Personal injury law firms TorkLaw and Feher Law, APC announce they have teamed up to launch Lunches on Lawyers, a community-focused effort to feed the doctors, nurses, first responders and medical professionals who are battling the COVID-19 pandemic.

Launched in April, Lunches on Lawyers identifies hospitals throughout Southern California impacted by COVID-19, aligns with mom and pop restaurants that have experienced a decline in business due to shelter-in-place orders and delivers meals to the medical workers. In many instances, these healthcare workers don’t have access to proper meals as hospital cafeterias operate on limited schedules, if at all, vending machines are empty and hospital shifts are so long and tiresome that cooking a meal at the end of the day is the last thing they want to do.

“As plaintiff lawyers and human beings, it is our duty to give back to the community and Lunches on Lawyers is just a small token of our appreciation to the dedicated doctors, nurses and support staff in the hundreds of hospitals, clinics, and care facilities that are putting in countless hard and thankless hours to fight this common enemy,” said Reza Torkzadeh, Managing Partner of TorkLaw. “I can’t think of a better way to make a meaningful contribution to our community at this time and we are thankful to our staff, industry colleagues, local business partners and others who are rallying behind this effort to support these heroes.”

To date, Lunches on Lawyers has delivered more than 450 meals to 12 hospitals throughout Los Angeles County, Orange County and the Inland Empire while enlisting more than eight local restaurant partners to supply meals. The initiative has gained the attention of others in the legal community who have sponsored meals through Lunches on Lawyers. Sponsors to date include Sachs Law, APC, Mandell Trial Lawyers, CASEpeer, Duque Law, Petrov Law Firm and Rawlins Law APC.

“Lunches on Lawyers plays a vital role in ensuring that our medical professionals are receiving proper nutrition to fuel their minds and bodies for the important work they are doing. By delivering a nourishing meal to them, we can relieve some of the burden and allow them to focus on what they do best,” said Tom Feher, Founder of Feher Law, APC. “While this pandemic has created much uncertainty on a global scale, one thing is certain and that is our community comes together in remarkable ways during times of need. We have truly been blown away by the eagerness of the legal community to get involved in our effort and sponsor meals for our fearless healthcare workers,” added Feher.

About Lunches on Lawyers

Lunches on Lawyers is an initiative developed by Feher Law, APC, and The Torkzadeh Law Firm (TorkLaw), both personal injury and accident law firms that are headquartered in California. This initiative was formed in response to the Coronavirus Disease-2019 as a way to help local communities.

This is an opportunity for people to really begin to work on themselves and make improvements that will impact their lives for the better.

BOCA RATON, Fla. (PRWEB)
April 24, 2020

Author Chad E Cooper has announced that there will be a free enrollment of the Legendary Lifestyle Membership Program, normally a $10,000 program. The giveaway is available to the first 30 people who enroll and does not include any required costs. The program focuses on health and significant lifestyle changes, how to handle stresses in one’s daily life including ones caused by the coronavirus pandemic, manage relationships and improve productivity, not only during the coronavirus, but beyond.

“You have millions of people who are stuck at home right now and are not sure what to do. How many times have you said over the years, if I had the time, I would do this or if I had a break, I could get this done? I’ve worked at home for over 30 years and I know what it takes to be productive and it all comes down to your mindset. You have to relearn how to think and take on every challenge whether it’s helping your kids with schoolwork, improving your relationship with your wife, understanding how you’re decisions even early in the day can impact the rest of the day like with diet and exercise and how to build a better and stronger mindset for challenges that come your way.” Chad Cooper

The program consists of 12 weeks and is a favorite among CEO’s, business managers, professional athletes and medical professionals. It helps in identifying ways to improve productivity an external relationships, understand and maintain a healthy work and life balance, putting together smart plans based on research and an understanding of what a person wants to accomplish and how be more assertive when it comes to going after goals and so forth.

“Right now, someone is sitting at home with nothing to do and they figure today they will work out, start on that diet they said they wanted to get started on, clean their house and do some yard work. Then, they start the day with a huge breakfast which they normally never eat. After that they feel tired and decide to watch TV for just an hour. Next thing you know, it’s dinner time and you accomplished nothing. If you wrote down a list of everything you said you were going to do at the start of the coronavirus pandemic and crossed off everything you actually did, there’s a good chance you wouldn’t be happy with it. That’s how this program helps people, we get them past their excuses and show them how to really help themselves on a level they never thought possible.”

Best friends and founders of BellaTres

We noticed a lot of confusion with most skincare products. The use of active ingredients is key. These ingredients have to be formulated at a high enough level to produce results.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (PRWEB)
April 23, 2020

BellaTres is excited to announce TreCeuticals, a line of scientifically-formulated solutions for those wanting improved texture, tone, and elasticity of facial skin. The company was founded by three friends passionate about skincare who decided to create a very specific, easy-to-use system that is also gender neutral.

“We noticed a lot of confusion with most skincare products. The use of active ingredients is key. These ingredients have to be formulated at a high enough level to produce results,” say the founders. The products will be available through a convenient ship-to-home program, starting April 30th, 2020.

The unique skincare system, developed with the guidance of renowned Facial Aesthetic Surgeon Dr. Paul Holden, fills a need in the self-care routine of busy consumers who want safe and effective skin benefits in a streamlined system.

Holden commented, “After listening to my patients for more than a decade, it became clear they desired an easy, effective, and accessible regimen for their skin that gives great results immediately and long term. Our development team at TreCeuticals has now delivered a science-based product that is unique, simple-to-use and shows significant, sustained improvement. People are going to be amazed at the difference in the way they look and feel after the first week of use.”

TreCeuticals offers these nourishing products without the hassle of buying from a dermatology clinic. Since the products are shipped soon after production, consumers receive the product at maximum potency – something that can’t always be guaranteed with off-the-shelf alternatives. There’s an added benefit of efficiency, as well.

The founding partners explained, “Our packaging is carefully measured and labeled so that you get the best, most effective use from each part of our kit.”

Users can feel better about their purchase, knowing that there won’t be excess product or bulky packaging to discard. The entire line is also cruelty-free.

TreCeuticals offers the luxury customers expect in a quality product without the high price or stress of traditional “systems.” Learn more at TreCeuticals SkinCare
