Hook More, Spend Less: Why Green Season is Prime Time for Anglers in Costa RicaJACO, Costa Rica - April 26, 2025 - PRLog -- Costa Rica's Rainy Season Brings a Surge in Sportfishing Action and Travel DealsJaco, Costa Rica – April 25 2025– The rainy season has officially arrived in Costa Rica, and with it comes some of the best fishing opportunities of the year. From May through November, offshore waters near Jaco and Los Sueños come alive with prized gamefish such as blue marlin, sailfish, mahi-mahi (dorado), wahoo, and yellowfin tuna. Anglers from around the world are discovering that the "green season" is one of Costa Rica's best-kept secrets.While the term "rainy season" might deter some travelers, seasoned sportfishermen know it's a golden window. The occasional showers typically roll in during the late afternoons or evenings, leaving the mornings and early afternoons clear and calm—ideal conditions for a full day on the water. Warm water temperatures and nutrient-rich currents during this time help attract big game species, offering consistent action for both inshore and offshore fishing."This is one of our favorite times of year," says Bolivar Rodriguez owner of Costa Rica Fishing Experts. "You'll see fewer boats on the water, the bite is hot, and prices are lower across the board."In addition to the world-class fishing, the rainy season also offers travelers deeply discounted rates on accommodations, tours, and charters. Boutique hotels, beach rentals, and luxury condos across Costa Rica's Central Pacific coast—from Jaco to Herradura to Quepos—are now offering some of their lowest prices of the year.Whether you're chasing your first billfish or looking for an affordable tropical getaway, Costa Rica's rainy season is a perfect time to visit. The landscape is lush, the rivers and waterfalls are flowing, and the bite offshore is as exciting as ever.Book your fishing charter and accommodations early to take advantage of seasonal discounts and experience the wild beauty of Costa Rica at its finest.For more information about fishing charters, accommodations, and travel packages, contact:Costa Rica Fishing ExpertsEmail: info@costaricafishingexperts.comPhone: 506 8310 8393Website: https://www.costaricafishingexperts.com/

April 24, 2025 - PRLog -- American University of Antigua College of Medicine (AUACOM) will hold its 2025 Commencement Ceremony on Thursday, May 22 at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) in Newark, New Jersey. This milestone event will mark the first time that AUA graduates are addressed by the highest-ranking keynote speaker in the university's history: His Excellency Sir Rodney Errey Lawrence Williams, Governor-General of Antigua and Barbuda.Additional dignitaries in attendance will include Dr. Peter Bell, President of AUA, and Dr. David Graham, AUA Provost. Featured speakers also include Vernon Solomon, Chief Operating Officer of AUA's Antigua Campus and Senior Vice President of AUA, Class of 2025 Valedictorian Mitchell Webb, and AUA alumna Dr. Yamuna Carey.H.E. Sir Rodney Williams to Deliver Keynote AddressPhysician. Educator. Aviator. Elected official.As a medical doctor who has practiced in Antigua, the selection of His Excellency Sir Rodney Williams to address this year's graduating class was both meaningful and historic. Appointed as Governor-General on August 14, 2014 by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, he previously served in the Parliament of Antigua & Barbuda. This will be the first time AUA welcomes a sitting Governor-General to deliver a commencement address.On accepting the invitation to deliver the keynote address, His Excellency Sir Rodney shared, "As a Caribbean physician and fellow advocate for global health, it is a distinct honour to address this year's remarkable cohort; future doctors who, by virtue of their AUA experience, are answering the call to heal, to serve, and to uplift humanity."As President of AUA, Dr. Bell is ready to celebrate this significant moment with AUA's graduating class. "Faculty, staff, family, and friends from across the globe will gather to honor the hard work, perseverance, and accomplishments of our newest alumni," said Dr. Bell. "This year we are especially honored to have the Governor-General of Antigua and Barbuda, Sir Rodney Williams presenting the keynote address."Beyond AUADr. Yamuna Carey, AUACOM Class of 2014, will return to address the Class of 2025 as this year's alumni speaker. Dr. Carey is currently an Acute Care and Trauma Surgeon and Surgical Intensivist at Baystate Health/UMASS Chan Medical School in Massachusetts. A graduate of both Manipal University and AUA, she described the invitation to speak as an "unbelievable honor."While preparing her remarks for May, Dr. Carey shared a piece of advice she hopes the graduates will carry forward: "Never underestimate the power of the relationships around you. Your co-students, co-residents, and even your juniors might be someone you work with or for one day."Dr. Carey added, "If you're in medicine for the money or notoriety, there are easier paths. But if you're passionate about patient care and making a difference, this career is absolutely phenomenal."Answering the CallMitchell Webb, a Canadian native, has earned the distinguished honor of Valedictorian of the Class of 2025. Drawn to AUACOM for its strong residency match rates and acceptance of students after three years of undergraduate study, Webb entered the university eager to begin his journey toward becoming a physician.He recently matched into Internal Medicine at Rochester General Hospital in New York—just across the border from his hometown in Ontario. Reflecting on his journey, he shared: "Every moment and every experience I had in medical school ultimately shaped me into the person I am today. I'm incredibly grateful for the life lessons I'll carry with me into residency and beyond."Webb was notified of his selection as Valedictorian by Craig Hauser, Senior Vice President for Academic Administration. "Mitchell's nearly perfect overall GPA, combined with first-attempt passes on USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 CK—the latter with an impressive score in the 96th percentile—made him an outstanding choice," said Hauser."When I first started medical school, my goal was simply to earn a residency position. Never did I imagine I'd be named Valedictorian," Webb said. "I couldn't have done this alone. I'm grateful for the support of the faculty and proud to represent AUA at graduation."The AUA AdvantageDr. Carey cited AUA's blend of international and U.S. clinical experiences as a defining factor in her decision to attend. "It broadened my perspective and deepened my clinical knowledge while preparing me to practice medicine in the U.S.," she said.Webb echoed this sentiment, saying, "AUA gave me the opportunity to achieve my childhood dream. Studying in the Caribbean doesn't make me any less of a doctor."His advice to incoming students: "There will be times in your first semester when doubt creeps in. Stay focused on your purpose. Remember why you came here and lean on your support system—they'll carry you through."Dr. Carey closed with encouragement for current students: "It's worth it. Keep pushing through."And from Webb, one final note for his fellow graduates: "Be the doctors we promised ourselves we'd be. Never stop advocating for your patients—they're counting on us more than we know."About American University of Antigua (www.auamed.org)Founded in 2004, American University of Antigua College of Medicine (AUACOM), part of the renowned Manipal Education and Medical Group, is a fully accredited international school that offers a rigorous, innovative medical education designed to prepare students for successful careers in medicine.With a globally recognized curriculum, clinical training opportunities in the U.S. and other healthcare systems, and a strong emphasis on personalized support, AUACOM equips students with the knowledge, skills, and experience needed to become compassionate and competent physicians.Located in Antigua, AUACOM provides a diverse and dynamic environment that fosters growth and prepares aspiring doctors to make a meaningful impact on global healthcare.

"At Stout, we're no longer asking executives to take a leap of faith on our data analytics. We are showing you the acres, the numbers, the impact. This is automation that's working to address multiple pain points for growers today — and it's only getting better."About Stout Industrial Technology:  Founded in 2019, Stout Industrial Technology, Inc. builds machines that reduce labor requirements for growers by combining AI with professional-grade industrial automation.  Comprising team members from the high-stakes, high-performance industries of automotive racing, defense, aerospace, medical, agriculture, and manufacturing, Stout Industrial Technology provides solutions that are field-tested, environmentally friendly and help growers lower their operating costs while improving quality and yield.www.stout.ai

Interactive presentation from Colbert Packaging demonstrates the renewability and sustainability of paper and paperboard packagingKENOSHA, Wis. - April 22, 2025 - PRLog -- Where is the oldest tree in the world and what is its name?* Students from Riverview School in Silver Lake, Wisconsin, and Bittersweet Elementary School in Mishawaka, Indiana, recently learned the answers during a special presentation given by corporate neighbor Colbert Packaging (colbertpkg.com). Building on its tradition of educating students about sustainability and the circular lifecycle of trees and papermaking, Colbert employee teams reached more than 150 second- and third-grade students with 'TICCIT' presentations. TICCIT is an acronym for "Trees into Cartons, Cartons into Trees."Trees Into CartonsAfter learning how paper is made from trees, students viewed photos from Colbert's manufacturing locations showing huge rolls of paperboard ready to be loaded onto presses for printing, cutting and gluing into cartons to hold medicines and various consumer goods. Since paperboard is 100% recyclable, photos also depicted how Colbert collects production scrap, recycling tons of material in a typical year. In addition, Colbert's commitment to sustainability includes support of zero manufacturing waste to landfill practices, certification with the Sustainable Forestry Initiative® (SFI) and the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC), and participation in EcoVadis' business sustainability ratings platform. Colbert Packaging has earned an EcoVadis rating that puts the company in the top 35% of rated companies, globally, for sustainability.Cartons Into TreesAfter the presentation, the hands-on activity gave students the opportunity to plant a sapling into a biodegradable paperboard carton filled with soil to bring home. The carton can be planted directly into the ground, providing protection and a natural water funnel for the new tree. As the tree grows, the carton will break down and complete the "trees into cartons, cartons into trees" cycle."The TICCIT curriculum teaches the next generation that trees are a sustainable crop, just like other agricultural crops such as corn and soybeans, and highlights the importance of recycling," said Colbert Marketing Manager Wanda Speer.Riverview School elementary teacher, Andrea Zackery summed it up: "The TICCIT program's presentation on recycling, reforestation and environmental restoration by planting trees to combat climate change, restore ecosystems, and promote biodiversity was very beneficial for our students. They are excited about helping the environment by planting their trees. Some of the students even gave their trees a name! The volunteers are helpful and kind and show passion for what they do."Earth Day 2025 marks the eighth year of Colbert's involvement in TICCIT. The event was organized and led by Colbert Human Resources Managers Todd Douthit and Kevin Pittner, along with volunteer employees from Colbert's Kenosha and Elkhart locations.

ATHENS, Greece & NEW YORK - April 24, 2025 - PRLog -- In a breaking development, the Greek Ministry of the Interior has issued a historic Ministerial Order addressing the long-overdue needs of Greek-born adoptees, marking a significant step toward justice, recognition, and belonging for thousands affected by international adoptions.This milestone directly results from a powerful collaboration between the dedicated advocates at The Eftychia Project and the specialized legal team at Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, PLLC. Their deep expertise in Greek citizenship law and tireless advocacy created the momentum and credibility needed to engage directly with government officials. A pivotal meeting took place in Athens on October 24, 2024.For years, The Eftychia Project has remained steadfast in its mission to support and advocate for Greek-born adoptees, particularly those adopted abroad, offering hope, identity, and reconnection with their roots. In partnership with the legal team at Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, they laid the foundation that ultimately led to this transformative governmental action."Our firm has developed and implemented a proven legal pathway for Greek-born adoptees to reclaim their Greek citizenship and secure rightful registration in the Greek Civil Registry," said Rallou Kyriakopoulou, Director of Greek Matters at Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, PLLC. "This Order validates a legal process we've successfully applied for years. Many believed it was impossible, but we always believed that hard work and our dedication to developing the legal framework would accomplish the goal, and this Order is the proof."This effort once believed impossible, has now become a reality thanks to the firm's expertise in Greek Citizenship Law and years of determined, strategic legal advocacy. Their framework was acknowledged by the Greek Government, the Ministry of the Interior, and especially Minister Theodoros Livanios, who issued the landmark Ministerial Order. The Order establishes a definitive legal precedent and a clear path forward for Greek-born adoptees seeking the restoration of their citizenship. It formalizes and expands access to Greek citizenship for those who were separated from their heritage through adoption, often during periods of profound social and political upheaval."This is truly a day for Greek-born adoptees everywhere to celebrate something that none of us were certain we'd ever see in our lifetime," said Eftychia Trotter Forest, founder of The Eftychia Project. Four years ago, The Eftychia Project launched its adoptee-led initiative for citizenship. Today, with the continuous effort of its board of directors and its legal team of Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, in close cooperation with Ministry of the Interior, what was once a dream has come to fruition with this ground-breaking Ministerial Order. We are ecstatic!"This achievement is a testament to the power of collaborative advocacy and expert legal leadership. Both The Eftychia Project and Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, PLLC, remain deeply committed to guiding Greek-born adoptees on their journey to reclaiming their identity, heritage, and rightful citizenship.Media Contacts:Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, PLLC – Greek Legal Services Team📧 info@tandplawfirm.com | 🌐 www.tandplawfirm.comThe Eftychia Project📧 info@theeftychiaproject.org | 🌐 www.theeftychiaproject.org

NEW YORK - April 24, 2025 - PRLog -- In a publishing landscape increasingly dominated by algorithm-friendly formulas, Baltimore-based author Christian Hurst is carving out his own niche with emotionally resonant science fiction that puts character development at the forefront of interstellar adventure.Hurst's debut novel, "Lily Starling and the Voyage of the Salamander," follows a protagonist who awakens with no memory of her past, only to discover she may hold the key to stopping a psionic enemy capable of reshaping history. The book has gained recognition for merging high-stakes adventure with deeper explorations of identity."I created the Lily Starling universe because I wanted to tell stories where sci-fi wasn't just about galaxies and gadgets—but about people asking questions. Who am I? Who do I want to be? If even one reader feels seen or understood through Lily's journey, then I've done what I set out to do," explains Hurst.As a self-published author, Hurst manages every aspect of his writing career, from story development to design, marketing, and promotion. This comprehensive approach has enabled him to create what he describes as "a fully immersive reading experience rooted in heart, humor, and high-stakes adventure."The book has received positive attention from reviewers. BookViral described it as "an engaging, well-crafted sci-fi novel that blends thrilling action, humour, and heartfelt moments seamlessly… a five-star read."What distinguishes Hurst's work in the crowded science fiction market is his focus on inclusive storytelling combined with cinematic worldbuilding. The novel's found-family themes resonate with readers seeking more than technical spectacle in their science fiction.For fans of the Lily Starling universe, Hurst is currently developing the second novel in the series, "Lily Starling and the Storm Riders," scheduled for release later this year. The upcoming installment promises to expand upon the rich, expansive universe established in the debut.In an era when many science fiction narratives lean heavily on dystopian themes or technological speculation, Hurst's work offers a refreshing alternative that reminds readers why character-driven science fiction continues to captivate audiences across generations.Original Article: https://thenytelegraph.com/baltimore-author-crafts-space-opera-where-human-questions-outshine-galactic-scale/More Information: https://booklife.com/project/lily-starling-and-the-voyage-of-the-salamander-99939Photos: (Click photo to enlarge) Source: The New York TelegraphRead Full Story - Baltimore Author Crafts Space Opera Where Human Questions Outshine Galactic Scale | More news from this sourcePress release distribution by PRLog

A rare alignment of legacy, energy, and presence places the music artist at the heart of a moment in history.VATICAN CITY, Italy & HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - April 23, 2025 - PRLog -- Last June, amidst ancient stones and eternal echoes, The World's No.1 Superstar™ and his husband Richard found themselves standing in the holiest of places—The Vatican. What was meant to be a soul-nourishing visit to reconnect with history and spirit has now gained new meaning, following the recent death of the Pope at the age of 88.Long before headlines captured the world's grief, the Sidow Sobrinos walked through Saint Peter's Basilica with reverence, intuition, and a deep awareness that something larger was unfolding."Rome didn't surprise me," said The World's No.1 Superstar™. "It confirmed what I already felt—we were meant to be there, as if a part of us had waited centuries to return."The Pope's age at the time of his passing—88—sparked further reflection. A number that eerily aligns with the couple's own symbolic math: 8 for The Superstar, 11 for Richard, their union representing a powerful cosmic 88. It's not superstition—it's synchronicity.From gliding past Vatican guards to silently standing before St. Peter's Tomb, the experience was more than historic. It was intimate. Familiar. Prophetic."Our visit to Rome came with an overwhelming sense of self-discovery," the artist shared. "We didn't need maps. The streets felt encoded in our DNA. The people, the culture, the energy—it was as though we were collecting scattered atoms of our being to become whole again."While in the Eternal City, The World's No.1 Superstar™ also filmed the upcoming music video ROME-ANTICS, a vibrant and sensual narrative inspired by the very heartbeat of Rome. Though no official release date has been announced, the anticipation continues to grow.As the world processes the end of a papal era, the Sidow Sobrinos reflect on what this moment truly means: a spiritual reset, a shift in energy, and a calling to rise even higher in purpose and legacy.  This wasn't a vacation—it was alignment.Photos and exclusive reflections are now available only at TheWorldsNo1Superstar.com

CLEARWATER, Fla. - April 22, 2025 - PRLog -- On Saturday, April 26th, an event designed to increase veteran advocacy will be held at the headquarters for CCHR Florida located in downtown Clearwater."Veterans can have special needs due to unique experiences and exposure to traumatic events," states Diane Stein, president of CCHR in Florida. "Many of them also face an uncertain return to civilian life. This sometimes leads to drug abuse, pain or loneliness after discharge from the military. It is estimated that one in ten veterans suffers from some sort of substance abuse which is higher than the general public."According to an article published by the USO, "in 2021, research found that 30,177 active-duty personnel and veterans who served in the military after 9/11 have died by suicide - compared to the 7,057 service members killed in combat in those same 20 years."How could it be that more than four times more veterans and soldiers have killed themselves, than soldiers that were killed in action? Is there a hidden influence that could have contributed to this terrible reality?"Psychiatric treatment is the hidden influence," says Stein. "For years psychiatrists have been infiltrating the military with their various diagnoses and psychotropic drugs."While a direct correlation cannot be made to account for all the suicides, it can be said that the "normal treatment" using psychiatric drugs has not helped the veterans and soldiers who are suffering.In addition to being an excellent opportunity to network and unite with fellow veteran advocates in the community, the event hopes to better educate veteran advocates on the dangers of the psychiatric drugs prescribed."The men and women who serve our country deserve the best of care and the most accurate information available. CCHR is here to help educate veterans about the unseen dangers of prescription drugs for PTSD and suicide prevention," states Susan Devlin, CCHR FL, Community Education Director. "There are other options and people who want to help, many are vets themselves. And we are here to facilitate that help."Please join CCHR on Saturday, April 26th 5:00pm-7:00pm for a discussion on mental health human rights. To reserve a seat please call 800-782-2878 or sign up online.About CCHR: Initially established by the Church of Scientology and renowned psychiatrist Dr. Thomas Szasz in 1969, CCHR's mission is to eradicate abuses committed under the guise of mental health. The Florida chapter of CCHR is an award-winning nonprofit in the area of mental health human rights and government relations. L. Ron Hubbard, founder of Scientology, first brought psychiatric imprisonment to wide public notice: "Thousands and thousands are seized without process of law, every week, over the 'free world' tortured, castrated, killed. All in the name of 'mental health,'" he wrote in March 1969.

HOUSTON - April 21, 2025 - PRLog -- Car accidents happen every single day across the country. On highways, in neighborhoods, at busy intersections, even in parking lots. They're stressful, often painful, and sometimes life-changing. While crashes can happen for many reasons, certain types of accidents are more common than others.Rear-End CrashesThis is the most common type of accident in the U.S. It usually happens when someone's driving too close or not paying attention and ends up bumping or slamming into the car in front of them. It's often due to distracted driving, like looking at your phone at a red light or not noticing traffic slowing down ahead. Even at low speeds, these accidents can cause neck and back injuries.T-Bone or Side-Impact CollisionsThese accidents are most likely to happen at intersections. One car runs a red light or fails to yield and crashes into the side of another vehicle. Since the sides of most cars don't offer as much protection as the front or back, these crashes can lead to serious injuries, especially to the driver or passenger on the impacted side.Head-On CollisionsThough not as common, head-on collisions are among the deadliest. They happen when two cars traveling in opposite directions crash front-first. These crashes usually involve someone crossing into the wrong lane, maybe because they're impaired, distracted, or fall asleep at the wheel. They tend to occur on rural or two-lane roads without medians and often result in serious or fatal injuries.Single-Car AccidentsSometimes, only one vehicle is involved in a crash, hitting a pole, guardrail, tree, or even veering off the road entirely. These kinds of accidents are often caused by speeding, bad weather, or swerving to avoid something on the road. While they might seem less severe, they can still be deadly depending on the impact and speed.Chain-Reaction PileupsThese multi-car crashes happen most often on freeways or in heavy traffic. One sudden stop or impact can lead to a domino effect, especially when cars are following too closely or visibility is poor. These pileups are chaotic and dangerous.Parking Lot BumpsAccidents don't always happen on the road. In parking lots, low-speed collisions are surprisingly common. Cars backing out at the same time, drivers not checking their mirrors, or cutting across lanes. While these accidents usually cause minor damage, they're still frustrating and can lead to insurance headaches.Contact An Attorney

Parents deserve the truth as leading scientists now admit families were misled into believing their children had a neurobiological disorder that required powerful stimulant prescriptions.LOS ANGELES - April 21, 2025 - PRLog -- A recent exposé in The New York Times Magazine will send shockwaves through the psychiatric community, affirming what the Citizens Commission on Human Rights International (CCHR) has warned for decades: there is no medical proof that Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a biological disorder.[1] Yet, over 3.4 million American children are labeled with ADHD and prescribed powerful, mind-altering stimulants.According to Jan Eastgate, President of CCHR International, the Times' revelations "should prompt federal lawmakers and public health officials to investigate how millions of children could be drugged under a false premise—and why dissenting voices were ignored."The New York Times Magazine article by Paul Tough details how ADHD was long marketed as a neurobiological disorder requiring medication, despite lacking any objective test. Tough writes that the entire system rests on shaky assumptions: "that ADHD is a medical disorder that demands a medical solution; that it is caused by inherent deficits in children's brains; and that the medications we give them repair those deficits." But many of those once involved in building this narrative are now disowning it.As the article concedes: "Unlike with diabetes, there is no reliable biological test for ADHD," and diagnosis often relies on "subjective judgment."Eastgate underscores the damage: "Millions of parents were led to believe their children had a brain disorder—one that science now admits it cannot medically confirm. That's not mental healthcare. That's institutional betrayal."Experts Retreat from ADHD's Scientific FoundationAmong the most striking revelations is the reversal of leading researchers who once championed the disorder and its treatments.Dr. James Swanson, a research psychologist and one of ADHD's early proponents, was central to efforts in the 1990s that drove public acceptance of the diagnosis. At that time, CCHR was actively protesting the mass drugging of children, warning that the supposed science behind ADHD was fundamentally flawed.
