Natural Diamond Jewelry for the Holidays

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/KDumY7JPkNA ‘Tis the season for all things glitz and glam, and for showing the person you love how much you truly care. Unwrapping a jewelry box with diamonds inside is just about the most memorable gift experience you can have. The Natural Diamond Initiative at De Beers Group kicked off the holiday season with a nationwide satellite media tour sharing a selection of the best natural diamond jewelry picks from trusted fine jewelry retailers in every region, as well as tips and tricks to guide you on your journey of buying diamond jewelry for a loved one, for yourself, or for an engagement. Sally Morrison, Director of PR for Natural Diamonds at De Beers Group, shared that in a recently conducted OnePulse survey of 300 women, well over 80% said they would be “very excited” to receive a gift of natural diamond jewelry this holiday season. The single most wanted gift? Natural diamond ear studs. The next most popular choices were natural diamond rings, followed by diamond necklaces, such as a diamond solitaire pendant or tennis necklace. In addition, Morrison noted that the holiday season is the most popular time of year to get engaged, and that she has noticed two new trends — the choice of unusual natural diamond shapes like pears, hearts and marquises in classic solitaire settings, and a movement away from white gold and platinum settings to yellow and rose gold. Morrison also noted that interesting design is more important to fine jewelry consumers today: “We are witnessing a move away from the conventional wisdom that ‘bigger is better’ to a sort of new idea for the American market — that smaller yet natural diamonds can be more personal, more intimate, and more uniquely your own.” Indeed, one trend that the De Beers natural diamond expert noted was a new interest in exploring diverse designers, with 76 percent of women agreeing that they would be “ interested in seeing more diversity in natural diamond jewelry brands and designers.” Natural diamond jewelry offers a simple gift idea that is a surefire way to spark joy this holiday season. Natural diamond jewelry for this media tour was provided by trusted retailers Almasika, Ben Bridge Jeweler, Greenwich St. Jewelers, Helzberg Diamonds, Jared, Mateo New York, Matturi Fine Jewelry, MusexMuse, and Zales.

Putting the Brakes on Distracted Driving This Holiday Season

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/-m__hB55lSE The holiday season is here – and that means there will be an increase of motorists on U.S. roadways. With more families hitting the road, it’s an important time to discuss the dangers and consequences of distracted driving. The 2023 Travelers Risk Index on distracted driving found that 70% of consumers feel that distracted driving is more of a problem now than it was over the past few years. Following are additional highlights from the 2023 Travelers Risk Index: · 80% make or receive calls. · 57% use handheld devices. · 28% post on social media. · 27% take photos or videos. The Travelers Institute, the public policy division at Travelers, has been raising awareness of the dangers of distracted driving through its Every Second Matters® campaign – an initiative that began in 2017. Since the campaign started, the Travelers Institute has published a number of whitepapers and resources to help consumers understand the risks and learn how to be safe behind the wheel. The Travelers Institute was joined by Cambridge Mobile Telematics (CMT), the world’s largest telematics solution provider, which regularly publishes new distracted driving data insights and road safety reports throughout the year. According to its new report, The State of Distracted Driving in 2023 & the Future of Road Safety, CMT reports that the 23% surge in distracted driving in 2022 caused an additional 420,000 crashes, 1,000 fatalities, and $10 billion in economic damages. Additionally, a new analysis from CMT shows that distracted driving increased by 9.2% on Thanksgiving Day from 2020 to 2022. For more information, visit TRAVELERSINSTITUTE.ORG AND CMT.AI.

Introducing the 2023 Airbnb Winter Release: Making hosting even easier this holiday season

YourUpdateTV

Have you ever considered boosting your income while you're away visiting your loved ones for the holidays? Hosts across the us have been sharing their spaces on Airbnb for well over a decade and it is proving to be a vital tool to earn extra income. Recently, Airbnb Superhost, Stephanie Goodloe conducted a satellite media tour to talk about the Airbnb 2023 Winter Release and her experience hosting on Airbnb. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/D_19ZgLd3RI On November 8, following a year of near continuous improvements based on community feedback, Airbnb announced its 2023 Winter Release, which brings increased transparency and reliability across the platform, and so much more – just in time for holiday travel. Airbnb has more than 7 million homes all over the world. Each home is one-of-a-kind, and this uniqueness is what sets Airbnb apart. But with so much variety, it can be hard to know what you’re going to get. This is why many people prefer hotels, and it’s the #1 obstacle preventing them from booking on Airbnb. Airbnb introduced three major upgrades to help guests understand exactly what to expect before they book: Introducing Guest Favorites The best way to find a great place to stay is by knowing which homes guests love the most. That’s why Airbnb created Guest Favorites—a collection of the 2 million most-loved homes on Airbnb based on ratings, reviews, and reliability data from over half a billion trips. Great ratings and reviews Outstanding reliability Easy to discover on Airbnb Nearly two-thirds of Guest Favorites come from Superhosts, who’ve been recognized for their track record of outstanding hospitality. Revamped ratings and reviews Guests have left over 371 million reviews about their stays on Airbnb. These ratings and reviews are the best way to understand the quality of a home. But today, there is limited information on the ratings page, and it’s hard for guests to find reviews that are relevant to them. The redesigned ratings page includes three new features that make reviews easier to read and much more helpful. Review sorting Rating distribution More review details Introducing the Listings tab Managing a listing is one of the most essential parts of hosting because it’s how guests learn about a home. In fact, listings with more details can get up to 20% more bookings. But many listings are missing the details guests care about because adding them has been too difficult. That’s why Airbnb is introducing the Listings tab—a set of new tools for Hosts to easily manage their listing and showcase the details of their home. Listing editor AI-powered photo tour Smart lock integration Even more upgrades for Hosts In addition to the new Listings tab, the 2023 Winter Release includes even more upgrades for Hosts. Pricing visibility Compare prices New earnings dashboard New options for Co–Host payouts New Co-Host messaging Hosts can try new features today by enrolling in Airbnb Early Access. Smart lock integration will be coming to Early Access for listings in the US and Canada later this year. Pricing visibility and compare prices will be available next year. For more information on the latest upgrades, please visit www.airbnb.com/release, and check out all of the 2023 Winter Release Highlights. If you're interested in becoming a host, visit airbnb.com/host to sign up. About Stephanie Goodloe Stephanie Goodloe is an Airbnb Superhost of a cottage in Prescott, Arizona. After moving into her new home in 2014, she convinced her husband that renovating the cottage in the back of their property would be a great way to supplement their mortgage and generate some additional income. Almost 10 years later, her listing has over 500+ 5 star reviews – and hosting has given her the freedom to raise her family while exploring other entrepreneurial adventures. Above all, she really enjoys having a space where guests can enjoy their vacation while feeling at home and comfortable. About Airbnb Airbnb was born in 2007 when two Hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home and has since grown to 4 million Hosts who have welcomed more than 1 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, Hosts offer one-of-a-kind stays and unique Experiences that make it possible for guests to experience the world in a more authentic, connected way.

Mentor Foster Care Celebrates National Adoption Month this November

Sevita

MENTOR Foster Care, a provider of foster care services and part of the Sevita family, is celebrating National Adoption Month this November. National Adoption Month serves as a reminder of the bonds that form through adoption and the importance of providing children with loving, forever homes. The month honors the significance of family and the diversity of families and the paths which bring them together. It also raises awareness of the many children in need and encourages prospective families to learn more. Currently, there are over 390,000 children in foster care. Of those, the average age is around eight years old. However, children come from many different age groups and can be anywhere from infants to young adults up to 20 years old. They also come from many different backgrounds, situations, and needs and deserve a loving and caring home. Oftentimes, foster care becomes the pathway to permanent adoption, known as foster care adoption. Foster care adoption differs from the temporary foster care system — it represents a stable, reliable placement for children and teens in care and provides them with long-term support when reunification with parents is not an option. Fostering and adoption make long-term positive impacts when children are placed in a safe, loving home. For kids, benefits include trust building, educational support and growth, increased social and emotional skills, more positive longer-term outcomes, and more. Additional information on the benefits of foster care can be found here. The number of children adopted from foster care in FY 2021 was 54,240, a 6% decrease from the year prior (FY 2020) and over an 18% decrease from FY 2019. Additional foster families are needed as many children await their forever homes. Sevita’s Mentor Foster Care programs help foster parents provide an environment where children can thrive. Interested individuals can find a complete guide to becoming a foster parent and how Sevita can support you through the journey here. This National Adoption Month, Sevita and its Mentor Foster Care programs celebrate all foster families supporting children across the country and hopes to inspire others to join in its effort to support the youth who need it most. And for those who have adopted children, through foster care or elsewhere, Sevita shares seven ways to celebrate this month. ### MENTOR Foster Care is part of the Sevita family and has been a trusted provider of foster care services since 1980, when it first began offering services as Massachusetts MENTOR. Today, Mentor Foster Care supports thousands of youth and families in nine U.S. states. Our unique model of foster care places children in loving homes with foster parents who support their healing and growth. Services are tailored to each child’s needs and may include trauma-focused counseling services, family and community activities, case management, life skill building, and skill development and support for foster parents. With the support of a clinical team, case managers, and other supportive staff, foster parents help youth with a wide range of challenges heal after trauma and set a hopeful path for their lives.

Digital Detox: What is it and Do You Need One?

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/jinxQF8-WHw By disconnecting from the digital world for an extended amount of time, people can experience reduced anxiety, better sleep, and a greater sense of presence in the real world. Digital detox also encourages healthier relationships with technology, aiding users in breaking the cycle of addiction to digital devices and regain control over their screen time. Especially as the holidays near, digital detox is top of mind for many Americans as they work to unplug and focus on being present with family, friends and loved ones. With the introduction of the new razr, Motorola is unveiling a new software experience called Moto Unplugged to help users take a break from their smartphone and remove distractions. Driven by Gen Z’s need to establish healthy boundaries with their devices, Motorola created Moto Unplugged to empower users to take a step back and match their mobile experience with their mindset - allowing them to choose when and how they want to disconnect. Setup is simple. Users choose essential apps and contacts they want notifications from. Then whenever they want to unplug, they select a time frame and start a digital break. For example, if a user needs to focus during work hours, they could choose to access only their email or Microsoft Teams and not see any other app during that Unplugged session. Or, for those looking to disconnect for some personal time, users can choose to limit which social media and messaging apps are accessible and which are temporarily blocked. That means more quality time with friends & family, more time to focus on the work that matters now, and more time to balance day-to-day life. Whatever the motivation may be, Moto Unplugged helps users disconnect and break away from the distractions of their phone. The pocketable design of the motorola razr and razr+ also lends itself to supporting users’ mental well-being with features like: An interactive external display: The razr offers a1.5" external display, ideal for those who want to disconnect while their phone is closed. Users can still view notifications, check their calendar and more on the external display, so they can stay connected, and not distracted. The 1.5" external display keeps users up to date with the latest notifications—without having to flip open the phone.. With the razr+, users have a larger 3.6" external display, which allows users to check notifications, respond to emails and messages, and manage virtually any app without opening the phone. This means users can check off tasks quickly without getting absorbed into their device. Innovative Flex View: Both devices also offer fun opportunities for content capture. Using Flex View, users can stand the phone at multiple angles - using it as a hands-free tripod of sorts. Both devices offer interactive camera features like Photo Booth, which can be fun for the whole family especially around the holidays.
