    FILE - In this June 14, 2011 file photo, Alivia Parker, 21 months, runs through circles of spraying water on a 100 degree day in Montgomery, Ala. Parker is wearing sunscreen with an SPF of 100. Sunbathers headed to the beach this summer will find new sunscreen labels on store shelves that are designed to make the products more effective and easier to use.

    FILE - In this Sunday, April 28, 2013 file photo, a Boeing 787 Dreamliner of the All Nippon Airways prepares to land after a test flight at Haneda International Airport in Tokyo. United Airlines is getting its 787s back in the air. The planes are returning after being grounded for four months by the federal government because of smoldering batteries on 787s owned by other airlines. The incidents included an emergency landing of one plane, and a fire on another. The incidents never caused any serious injuries. But the January grounding embarrassed Boeing, which makes the 787, and disrupted schedules at the eight airlines that were flying the planes. United's first 787 flight was scheduled for 11 a.m. Monday, May 20, 2013 from Houston to Chicago. (AP Photo/Shizuo Kambayashi, File)
