Children Medieval Band Live – Ich will – Denver Coliseum 2012

Wednesday, June 13th, 2012

On May 20th 2012, the kids from Children Medieval Band played live as an opening act for the Rammstein show. It was a great audience. The kids performed very well. If we consider their lack of experience on stage, the numerous audience, and also the sound which was very different from what they got used to, their performance was a great A+. This video doesn’t reflect well the quality of the show, but we post it anyway. We found two other videos from this event, their sound is also not too good, but the picture is better: www.youtube.com www.youtube.com The home recording of this song is here: www.youtube.com Children Medieval Band: Stefan (10) – voice, guitar, violin Olga (8.6) – keyboard, voice Cornelia (6) – drum, voice We’d like to thank Joe Letz for introducing the kids on stage. He was the one who found their videos on youtube and showed them to the R+ team. Thanks Joe, and thanks to all the team and, first of all, to the band members, who were very friendly and supportive to the kids.

The National Parenting Center Awards The Utterly Yours? Pregnancy Pillow With Its 2012 Seal of Approval

Thursday, May 10th, 2012

Great Falls, VA (PRWEB) May 03, 2012

The National Parenting Center [TNPC] announced the winners of its 2012 Seal of Approval in which the Utterly Yours Pregnancy Pillow was a recipient. Hundreds of products were submitted and underwent a thorough evaluation process of first-hand consumer testing over a ten week period. Reviews can be located from the TNPC home page at TNPC.com.

The National Parenting Center’s Seal of Approval program is an independent testing procedure conducted to judge a variety of products introduced and marketed to the parent/child consumer market. Evaluated are each product’s level of desirability, sturdiness, and other ingredients essential in the make-up of a quality product. Test results are based on both statistical averaging and comments received from the testers.

The Utterly Yours? Pregnancy Pillow promises to deliver optimal comfort with its special design. It comes in a cube shape that opens to form two triangles. When in this open position, the pillow?s two halves support the back and belly simultaneously. Eco-friendly memory foam on one half of the pillow conforms to the mother?s belly. The other half of the pillow is made of higher density foam to support the back while keeping the body positioned to one side.

One of the biggest complaints of pregnancy pillows is that they are too bulky ? taking up half the bed at night and no place to discreetly store during the day. Other issues are that they are too confining and do not offer a balanced amount of body support.

The Utterly Yours Pregnancy Pillow successfully addresses all of these issues and has already proven to give expectant moms a comfortable night?s sleep and reduction of back pain they had been experiencing prior to using the pillow. Images and a ?how to? video can be viewed/downloaded at http://www.utterlyyours.com/media.html.

Here’s what the The National Parenting Center had to say:

Being pregnant is such an exciting time, full of anticipation and preparation. Other aspects of pregnancy are less upbeat; they include exhaustion, fatigue and discomfort. Finding a comfortable position when doing something as simple as watching TV can be impossible for some. The Pregnancy Pillow is a support system that gives mothers in the latter half of the pregnancy some much needed assistance. Uniquely designed and shaped the Pillow has been created to support mothers-to-be when they are in downtime, like lying on the couch, or even the floor, and watching TV. Supporting both the back and the belly, testers felt a reduction of pressure and discomfort. Visually they found it appealing with its cute and trendy fabric designs. The see through packaging and the way that it folds up into a cube, was viewed as quite ingenious.
