Looking for something to do this weekend? Head over to the Saturday Morning Market in St. Pete for great food, interesting crafts, and lively music that you won't find at any other local market. Now in its thirteenth season, the Saturday Morning Market began in 2002 and has been drawing customers from across the state ever since.
When it comes to making visitors feel connected to the creative community that is St. Pete, the Saturday Morning Market has it down. "There are three key factors that are at the core of how we have done it," says Mark Johnson, Market Director. "One, we put a great band right in the middle of the market. This is very uncommon in Markets. We choose our music very carefully. Two, we have three times as much seating space as in any Market we know of in the US. Three, we have a very strong variety (fifteen different nationalities/styles) of ready-to-eat food."
These factors encourage returning patrons to come hungry in order to enjoy the great food, and to expect great music, and social interaction. "People often tell us that coming to Market is the highlight of their week," remarks Johnson. "We even have people tell us they have chosen to move to St Petersburg specifically because of the quality of the market, and the sense of community they feel there."
Customers aren't the only ones enjoying the sense of community built into the Market's operation. Johnson explains, "We have built a great sense of community among our vendors. They all report that they feel a sense of support among each other that doesn't exist at any other place they vend. So before the first customer walks into the Market in the morning, a great sense of community exists in what was an empty parking lot just several hours before."
The vendor selection process is competitive. "We've always been extremely careful in selecting our vendors, having declined over 1000 vendor applicants in our history," boasts Johnson. Currently, 180 vendors have made the cut, rotating through the 135 available slots throughout the year.
As a result of this careful hand-selection of vendors, the Saturday Morning Market has been awarded a 'Certificate of Excellence' award for the last 2 years from TripAdvisor, which is based on the strength of the ratings that customers have given us. It has also won the 'Best Farmers Market' award in Creative Loafing's annual reader survey for all five years that the award has been given.
You can visit the Saturday Morning Market in one of two locations, dependent on the time of year. From early October to late May, the Market can be found in the Al Lang Field parking lot from 9am-2pm. During the hotter seasons, the Market changes venues for shade purposes. From June to August, the Market takes place from 9am-1pm in the Williams Park. Find out for yourself why the Saturday Morning Market has been called the 'Heart of Saint Petersburg," by visiting this weekend.

About Alderney
Applications & Licensees
The Renewable Energy (Alderney) Law, 2007 established the Alderney Commission for Renewable Energy (the Commission) with powers to licence and regulate the operation, deployment, use or management of all forms of renewable energy in the island of Alderney and its territorial waters.
The Law and its subsequent amendment also prohibit the operation, deployment, use or management of any form of renewable energy in the Island and its territorial waters unless licensed by the Commission.
ACRE currently has no responsibility for FAB Link. This is an interconnector cable proposing to transmit electricity from France to the UK. As it is not a 'renewable energy system' and as there is currently no renewable energy component to this electricity it is outside ACRE's statutory powers to be involved.
Statutory Responsibilities
Impact on Humans
The Commission shall consider any applications with particular regard to the protection of human health and what is reasonably considered to be in the best interest of the Island of Alderney.
Any Consent application requires an Environmental Statement including an assessment of the potential impacts to the marine, air and land environments and ecosystems. The Commission completed a Regional Environmental Assessment (REA) for Alderney and its territorial waters to provide information on the environmental considerations and risks associated with renewable energy development.
Impact on Activities
Potential for interference with shipping, fishing and other lawful activitiers in Alderney's waters will be considered by the Commission and there will be public consultation in accordance with The Renewable Energy (Alderney) Ordinance 2008 before deciding whether to grant an application.
Commission's consents process
Commissioners are responsible for licensing and the regulation of renewable energy activities.
The Commission's marine consents process is robust, transparent and straightforward. It is a two stage process, stage 1 being the grant of a licence to conduct preparatory survey, tidal measurements and other investigations over a concession of one or more blocks, and stage 2 being the grant of a further licence to deploy, operate and use a renewable energy system within Alderney territorial waters. Operating consent will require applicants to obtain all necessary licences and permits from relevant statutory consultees. Guidance on the Consents process is available here to view and can be downloaded from our document library.

6 reviews for Workin' It
Patrick Van de Wiele – August 3, 2014
Three years ago I discovered the music of trumpeter Eric Bolvin through his album 'The Night, The Rain and You'. I reviewed it for keysandchords.com. I wrote then that he handled a mixture of styles and technique, and came up with nice smooth jazz, also interesting to jazz purists. Well, now he's back with his new release, and again it's a genre defying album. As an independent musician he combines smooth jazz with daring escapades on "Workin' It".
Patrick Van de Wiele (Smooth Jazz Europe)
Bill Milkowski – August 3, 2014
Ultra-funky….soothing……blues-drenched…
Bill Milkowski (Jazz Times)
Sandy Shore – August 3, 2014
I'm really enjoying listening to S.F. Bay Area trumpet guy Eric Bolvin's brand new release, WORKIN' IT! First off, it's fresh and inventive; with an excellent selection of tunes…
Sandy Shore (SmoothJazz.com)
Jonathan Widran – August 3, 2014
Eric Bolvin pulled in some ringers for his latest recording. Keyboardist Jeff Lorber, guitarist Chris Cain and drummer Dennis Chambers all lend muscle to the San Francisco Bay Area trumpeter's "Workin It".
Jonathan Widran (Jazziz Magazine Jazz Editor, Wine and Jazz Magazine)
Nick Mondello – August 3, 2014
The smooth jazz trumpet idiom has been the stronghold of Ric Braun, Greg Adams, Chris Botti and, in its earliest iterations, Miles Davis and Herb Alpert. With Workin' It, Bolvin shows he has the goods to stand with those commercially better-known players. He plays with sensitivity, confident control, dead-on intonation and a savvy sense of pulse. Bolvin also shows an exceptional compositional and production talent; 11 tunes here are Bolvin originals. Sometimes, smooth jazz trumpet offerings are formulaic and as bland as vanilla. Not so here. Bolvin's selections never bore, or have one hoping for the next cut to be different.
Nick Mondello (All About Jazz)
Eric Vine – May 25, 2017
Just bought Workin it on itunes and am really enjoying it.
It is very funky and smooth with a great great mix of styles. Erics playing is a joy to listen to with a great sound and intonation that never misses.

Customs Zone A intercepts Goods worth over N8b - Welcome to Transport Day Online!!!
In the first half of this year, that is January to June 2018, the Nigeria Customs Service, Federal Operations Unit, Zone 'A' Ikeja, Lagos has intercepted various contraband with a duty paid value (DPV) of Eight Billion, Two Hundred and Fourteen Million, Four Hundred and Eighty Six Thousand, Seventy Two Naira, Seventy Five Kobo only (8,214,486,072.75). This figure was contained in a statement made available to Transport Day by the unit's Public Relations Officer, Mr. Jerry Attah.
The statement added that "similarly, the unit through its interventions recovered N405,217,909.00 from duty payments and demand notices on vehicles and general goods that tried to cut corners from seaports, airport and border stations through wrong classification, transfer of value, and short-change in duty payment that are meant for the coffers of Federal Government of Nigeria, making a cumulative of N8,619,703,982.00.
"In the Months under review, 107 suspects were arrested in connection to 596 different seizures comprising 34,652 foreign parboiled rice (equivalent to 58 trailers); 167 units of exotic vehicles (Toyota Prado/Lexus; bullet proof), Toyota C-HR , Toyota Camry LE, Toyota Prado(s), Toyota Hilux, Ford F150, Pajero Jeeps, Mercedes Benz ranging from 2015-2018 models respectively); 8,987 cartons frozen poultry products, 4,586 jerrycans of vegetable oil, 3,463 cartons of different pharmaceutical/medicaments, 370 parcels/98 sacks of Indian hemp weighing 1,350kg, and various general merchandise.
"Remarkably among the seizures within this period, was the interception of 460 sacks of pangolin scales weighing 12, 264 kg and 218 elephant tusks, making it the highest seizure of such endangered species in the history of Federal Operations Unit Zone A. This seizure among others brought a lot of accolades to us from the Comptroller-General of Customs Col. Hameed Ibrahim Ali (Rtd) and his management team.
"To crown it all was the visit by the Minister of State for Environment, Mallam Ibrahim Usman accompanied by the United Nations charter on CITES delegates led by Mr Juan Carlos who is the Chief Legal Affairs, CITES Headquarters in Geneva, to inspect the seized items and make necessary recommendation to its headquarters. The Minister commended the FOU A for that great seizure. The UN delegates also promised their support to provide necessary trainings towards combatting such illicit trade on endangered species, so that such harmless animals don't go into extinction. The seized pangolin and elephant tusk alone is valued at N2,739,191,400.00, with two Chinese national as suspects".
The unit added that "in order to ensure full implementation of the government policy banning the importation of rice through land borders, we re-strategized our operational modalities and beam our searchlight at the Creek, Water side, and at various locations in southwest zone and hence the reason for the massive rice seizure within the months under review. We will continue to make sure smugglers within our areas of jurisdiction count their losses until they repent from sabotaging our economy" Comptroller Mohammed Uba said.
Comptroller Mohammed reiterated that even though smuggling is a global phenomenon that cannot be eradicated entirely, invites all hands to be on deck so that it could be reduced to its barest minimum. He commended the officers/men who have put their lives on the line making these seizures; most especially the over 58 trailers load of rice knowing fully well it's a big battle at the creek. He equally commended their resilience and doggedness that brought about this feat.
The Comptroller opined that "this feat couldn't have been possible without the logistics support of the Comptroller-General of Customs, Col. Hameed Ibrahim Ali (Rtd) and the entire management, as well as you the media for your partnership in sensitizing and educating the general public on the evil of smuggling to the nations economy. He further thanked our sister agencies that are always on ground giving us the necessary operational support, most especially the Nigeria Army, Police, DSS among others and look forward to sustaining such relationship that will yield better performance in the remaining half of the year".


A homeless South-Florida man with no arms has been charged with stabbing a Chicago tourist. Miami Beach police say 46-year-old Jonathan-Crenshaw held a pair of scissors with his feet and stabbed 22-year-old Cesar Coronado just after midnight early Tuesday. The Miami Herald reports that Crenshaw is a popular fixture in the area, known for painting on canvases along a trendy spot in South Beach.

E-commerce business companies produce products intending to offer the highest quality of services to their clients. One effective method to measure your strengths and weaknesses is by listening to customer feedback and reviews. Product review software offers companies a space to host complaints and positive reviews from their customers. This program functions similarly to the traditional survey questionnaires that other organizations hand out to their customers. People use this management software to detail their experience using the product and provide a rating based on how satisfied they are with the brand management. Employing review platforms for your company is one of the best ways to market your product digitally.
Customers will want to trust more in the reviews of other people who have purchased and experienced the product. That said, having a product review software will offer you the following benefits:
It will provide prospective client authentic feedback on your products
It will help build customer engagement
It will offer a program that can assist you in your complaint management
Having software that functions to collect customer feedback will make it easier for you to manage all the reviews that you can receive from various online store platforms and marketplaces in one location.

GM Books' Collaborative-Publishing Model as A Win-Win For Authors and The Publisher
Posted November 16, 2019 by westwing
William Dorich was a pioneer in Independent Publishing in 1984. His own unfortunate experience with a major publisher was the impetus in creating GM Books. He has written 10 books, 6 on Balkan history, politics and music.
Beverly Hills, CA, Nov 15, 2019 -- William Dorich was a pioneer in Independent Publishing in 1984. His own unfortunate experience with a major publisher was the impetus in creating GM Books. He has written 10 books, 6 on Balkan history, politics and music. His best-selling titles include, Defeat Foreclosure, The Nursing Home Crisis, and Serbia: Faces & Places.
GM Books works closely with both first-time as well as experienced authors and provides the support in turning manuscripts into books, avoiding the rejection letters and delays from major publishers. By working with GM Books, the author becomes a participant in the publishing process in which small quantity press runs are treated with the same attention as large quantities. The author is given three choices of compensation, Collaborative giving the author a 50% royalty; Hybrid at 30% and traditional publishing with a 10% royalty.
Anita and William Dorich formed GMbooks.com when their independent publishing company was a cottage industry. In the early 1990's, GM was the first publisher of eBooks on CD Disks in California with 9 digital camera eBooks by author Peter iNova. Two of them were best-sellers. In 2008, GM was first to publish a "press & play" children's book, This Bible Talks by Pamela Fisher. GMBooks introduced "open-flat" perfect bound books to the California market with The Road Atlas by Richard Saul Wurman. GM then went on to produced 48 city guide titles with Richard Wurman under his Access Press trademark.
GM's innovative approach to first-time authors and the concept of Collaborative and Hybrid Publishing has a proud history of over 900 titles including: Witness to War: Images of the Persian Gulf War which won a Pulitzer prize for The Los Angeles Times. Media Cleansing: Dirty Reporting on the Bosnian Civil War by award winning journalist Peter Brock, Nuclear Lies, Deceptions and Hypocrisies by Nuclear Scientist, Mehdi Sarram, published in 2015, three weeks before President Obama signed the Nuclear Agreement with Iran.
Noteworthy titles include: The 1984 Los Angeles Summer Games for ARCO, The Calgary Winter Games for ABC Sports; The Barcelona Summer Games for Simon & Schuster, Understanding Money and Markets for the Wall Street Journal, and Investing in the 90's for Fortune Magazine—all Best-Sellers.

Donuts and the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) jointly announced an agreement to help ensure that websites using domains registered with Donuts are not engaged in large-scale piracy.
Under the terms of the agreement, the MPAA will be treated as a "Trusted Notifier" for the purpose of reporting large-scale pirate websites that are registered in a domain extension operated by Donuts. The agreement imposes strict standards for such referrals, including that they be accompanied by clear evidence of pervasive copyright infringement and a representation that the MPAA has first attempted to contact the registrar and hosting provider for resolution.
The agreement specifies that Donuts will work with registrar partners to contact the website operator and seek additional evidence. If Donuts or its registrar partner determines that the website is engaged in illegal activity and thereby violates Donuts' Acceptable Use and Anti-Abuse Policy, then they, in their discretion, may act within their already established authority to put the infringing domain on hold or suspend it.
Overall, the new program is a voluntary best practice designed to help promote a healthier Internet by mitigating blatantly illegal online activity.
The announcement immediately precedes the first Healthy Domains Initiative summit, an event organized by The Domain Name Association, which will convene domain name industry leaders who are focused on issues such as this, including the safe and healthy evolution of the namespace.

Q: Pixastic ColorAdjust Type Error Undefined I'm really hoping someone will be able to help... I have double and triple and quadruple checked that the Pixastic libraries are loading.
Here is my HTML code:
In the  tag:

In the  tag:

Here is the jQuery. I am omitting the formulae that compute the RGB offsets because they don't seem relevant. But let me know if they are. :)
$('#preview-image').pixastic('coloradjust',{
    red : pixadjustR,
    green : pixadjustG,
    blue : pixadjustB
});

This is the error I'm getting:
TypeError: $('#preview-image').pixastic is not a function. (In '$('#preview-image').pixastic('coloradjust',{
        red : pixadjustR,
        green : pixadjustG,
        blue : pixadjustB
    })', '$('#preview-image').pixastic' is undefined)`

(I have also tried Pixastic.process(document.getElementById("preview-image"), "coloradjust"... and get Pixastic.process is not a function etc.

A: Did you include the pixastic jquery plugin ?
If you want to do it without the jquery plugin this is similar to how they do it in the demo:
function pixastic(img, method, options){
    // Copy image to canvas
    var canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
    canvas.width = img.width;
    canvas.height = img.height;
    var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
    ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0);
    // Create Pixastic object and execute filter.
    // The second parameter is the path to the folder containing the worker script
    var P = new Pixastic(ctx);
    P[method](options).done(function(){
        // Copy the data back to the image as dataURI
        img.src = canvas.toDataURL();
    });
}
pixastic($('img')[0], "coloradjust", {
  red : pixadjustR,
  green : pixadjustG,
  blue : pixadjustB
})

As data breaches exposing sensitive company data become more common, new research from McAfee has revealed that being the cause of a data breach or cyber attack is one of the main work-related worries keeping employees up at night.
Of those surveyed, one in five (21%) of employees said they are worried that they will do something at work that will result in a data breach or click on a dodgy link that results in their corporate network being infected.
To make matters worse, these work-related anxieties are leading to a lack of confidence, loss of sleep and even illness as employees try their best to navigate today's increasingly complicated threat landscape.
Over a quarter (25.8%) of respondents reported suffering from stress-related illnesses with 14.8 percent admitting to taking sick days to avoid going in to their workplace.
McAfee also discovered that as remote working has grown in popularity, respondents identified Wi-Fi hotspots (31.7%), cloud storage/apps (21.5%) and devices connected to mobile networks (21.4%) as the biggest security threats facing them.
Artificial intelligence, devices connected to home networks, smart home systems and connected cars filled out the rest of the list of greatest threats to one's data security.

More info on The Den (stadium)
The Den (stadium): Map
Wikipedia article:
Map showing all locations mentioned on Wikipedia article:
The Den was the fifth football stadium occupied by Millwall F.C. in Cold Blow Lane, New Cross , London since their formation in Millwall on the Isle of Dogs in 1885 before moving to the New Den May 1993. The ground, opened in 1910, was the home of Millwall for 83 years. It boasted a record attendance of 48,672 (v Derby County in 1937). The Den was adjacent to New Cross Stadium , a large athletics stadium which later hosted Greyhound racing and Motorcycle speedway as well as being used by Millwall for training, as Millwall were lacking a training pitch of their own at the time.
Millwall moved to The Den from North Greenwich in 1910. They had previously occupied no fewer than four separate grounds on the Isle Of Dogs in the 25 years since their formation as a football club. Tom Thorne, the director in charge, had sought the help of architect Archibald Leitch and builders Humphries of Knightsbridge . The estimated cost of The Den was £10,000. The first match was on Saturday 22 October 1910 against Brighton & Hove Albion, the Southern League Champions who spoiled the celebrations by winning 0 - 1. The price of the official Match Programme was one penny. Unfortunately, the opening ceremony also suffered a slight hitch when it was discovered that Lord Kinnaird had inadvertently gone to the Canterbury (Ilderton) Road end. He had to be unceremoniously hauled, pushed, and pulled over the wall into the ground. After rushing to the other end (Cold Blow Lane) the President of the FA performed a brief opening ritual and led the players onto the pitch. Before kick off a brass lion, inscribed (in Gaelic) "We Will Never Turn Our Backs To The Enemy", was presented to the club. Many supporters from the East End of London continued to follow The Lions in the early years after their move south of the River Thames by walking through the Greenwich foot tunnel to join the supporters drawn mainly from the Surrey Docks .
Millwall's first Football League match at The Den was on August 28 1920. They beat Bristol Rovers 2 - 0. This victory over Rovers was the Lions' seventh successive win against them since moving to The Den. The game was played in the Football League Division 3 South of which Millwall were founder members. In this year, Millwall scored 83 goals at The Den. This is still a Football League record.
Being in close proximity to the Surrey Commercial Docks , The Den sustained severe bomb damage during The Blitz and a German bomb hit the North Terrace on 19 April 1943. On 26 April, a fire destroyed the Main Stand. The club accepted offers from neighbours Charlton, Crystal Palace and West Ham to stage games. On 24 February 1944 Millwall returned to The Den, to play in an all-standing stadium. This was achieved, in part, with considerable volunteer labour by the Lions fans.
After the war, rationing in Britain continued and Millwall were refused permission by the Ministry of Works to construct a new two tier stand, despite having procured all the materials. They had to wait until 1948, when permission was granted to build a smaller single tier stand two thirds the length of the pitch, with a forecourt terrace at the front. Archibald Leitch's "trademark gables" were never replaced.
On October 5, 1953, Millwall played Manchester United to mark the opening of their Floodlights. A crowd of 25,000 saw The Lions beat The Red Devils 2 - 1.
Millwall established a record of 59 home games without defeat at The Den from: 22 August 1964 to 14 January 1967. This was thanks largely to managers Billy Gray, who laid the foundations, and Benny Fenton, a former player who continued to build on Gray's side and also partly due to the ferocious noise generated by The Lions' fans. All the players were presented with a commemorative gold cigarette lighter by the Football Association.
The Den hosted a full England international match against Wales on March 13 1911. England won the game 3 - 0. The Den also hosted an England B international, with England beating Yugoslavia B 2-1 on 12 December 1989. Millwall's first and last Football League games at The Den were played against Bristol Rovers - the final game being at the end of the 1992-93 Division One campaign.
By the late 1970s, The Den had fallen into disrepair and there was proposals to build a "Super-Den" on the existing sites of The Den and the adjacent New Cross Stadium, with an anticipated all-seater capacity between 25,000 and 30,000. However, the club could not raise sufficient funds to pay for the ambitious project and it eventually fell through, proving very unpopular with the Lions fans, culminating in mass demonstrations against Chairman Reg Burr.
The stadium was demolished later in 1993. The site is now occupied by new houses and flats however the site and surrounding area are now known to locals as "Little Millwall" and Millwall fans still make the trip by foot from New Cross Gate station through the area to the all-seater New Den Stadium in Bermondsey .
The Millwall Roar
It was at The Den that the famous Millwall Roar was born. During the early part of the 20th century, it was considered "good form" for home fans to show their appreciation of good football displayed by the opposition. The Millwall fans however, would quite literally "roar" for their team only, from start to finish. This strongly partisan support was soon to be regarded by the team as "a goal start." The Den became one of the most feared grounds in the country. No team liked to play there, because the crowd and the place itself created such an intimidating atmosphere. The Lions fans were tough, uncompromising, quick to speak their mind and offer advice to the team and officials. The Den was considered one of the most hostile grounds in the whole of Britain for visiting teams and was closed a record 5 times by the Football Association.
"The away-team dressing room is like a dungeon, no light, no window. The bathrooms are horrible. Then you get out there to face them, The Lions. And they just come storming at you and most sides just jack it in. When you have been there a little time though, you grow to love it. It's one of our biggest assets." Eamon Dunphy
"Teams just didn't like coming to play here, which is one of the reasons we were unbeaten for so long. The crowd really used to intimidate the opposition. I remember marking Frannie Lee when he was playing for Bolton, and after a few minutes he said to me, 'Ain't you popular with the crowd.' I said 'Yeah, but if you don't come into my half you'll be alright!' He didn't really come near me for the whole game after that!" Harry Cripps
"I remember running on to the pitch at The Den when I was a youngster with Leicester in the fifth round of the FA Cup. The place resembled a huge trap, and the venom that hit us from the Millwall fans was unbelievable. I remember thinking to myself, maybe it would be a good idea not to score at this place!" Gary Lineker
"The most memorable goal I ever scored at The Den was a tap-in from point blank range - the fans would have hung me if I'd missed it! What made it so special was that it was our first ever Division One [home] game, and it gave us our first ever [home] win in the top flight - I'm deadly from that sort of range!" Teddy Sheringham
"I know a lot of Millwall supporters will be choked about leaving The Den, but you've got to move with the times and I think the new ground they've built down the road looks superb. I think all of us lament the move to all seater stadiums, but you can't stand still in this business. If you do that, you're dead." George Graham

The Under Armour Scout League (UASL) was formed to assist high school baseball student-athletes seeking to further their academic and athletic careers. The league is the culmination of efforts by the owners and operators of some of the finest amateur baseball programs in the Tri-State area in conjunction with Under Armour. Our primary goal is to provide our players with the best and most prudent exposure to collegiate coaches and recruiters while also providing them with the training and instruction required for them to succeed at the "next level". In developing this program, we sought the advice and assistance of college Head Coaches, Recruiting Coordinators, Admissions Directors, NCAA Rules Officials as well as MLB Scouts, Player Development Directors and Community Relations Managers. It is through their recommendations and ongoing participation that UASL will achieve its goals become a valuable tool for players and parents in their recruitment process.
It is our belief that baseball can provide students with opportunities to attend colleges and universities that might otherwise be out of reach for academic or financial reasons. During the course of our summer and fall seasons we will be offering seminars and providing online materials that we feel will provide families with the essentials of the college admissions, financial aid and the recruitment process as well as information on NCAA Rules & Regulations. We at UASL feel that the best information comes from the people who are currently in the field and that information will be accessible through our extensive network of Division I, II, III and Junior College personnel.
The shift from local recreational and league play towards travel baseball programs has provided significant opportunities for private operators to enter the segment and the results have often proven confusing and costly for parents who must bear the financial burden over what may several seasons of play. Our goal here is to provide value and transparency to the equation. Each of our workouts and games are attended by college recruiters and often by professional scouts. This is guaranteed, NOT promised. In our inaugural 2018 summer season over 15 local schools attended our games and addressed our athletes. Our workouts are not only conducted by our exceptional staff but also by the recruiters present on that day. We provide the recruiters with profiles on the players and any additional information they may require from our staff.
Our "on field" staff includes former collegiate and professional players, collegiate and high school coaches and umpires. We employ the same training techniques used by all MLB organizations and collegiate programs and utilize state of the art equipment and training tools.
We expect the league will expand rapidly over the course of the next few seasons but our focus will remain on the individual athlete. Our success will be measured by the number of student athletes we have assisted in achieving their baseball goals not by the number of games won or trophies acquired.

Checkmate for London Stock Market as World Chess Relaunches IPO Plan | Economic news
By Nettie A. Casper	 On Nov 5, 2021
The company that previously ran the World Chess Championship is relaunching its plans to list on the London Stock Exchange after a two-year hiatus.
Sky News has learned that World Chess, which is run by Ilya Merenzon, is targeting an announcement in a few weeks that would lead to a public sale of shares on the AIM junior market.
Sources in the city said Novum Securities had been appointed to work on the listing.
World Chess is majority owned by its management team, but also includes Kaspersky, the cybersecurity service provider, among its minority investors.
The company controls the online gaming platform for the World Chess Championship, which is due to take place in Dubai later this month, with current world champion Magnus Carlsen.
Executives are said to believe that the growing global popularity of the sport, with 600 million people now describing themselves as chess players, has opened up a series of lucrative business opportunities.
The resounding success of the Netflix series, The Queen's Gambit, has also fueled international interest in chess.
In 2019, World Chess announced its ambition to launch an unusual "hybrid initial public offering" that would have included the issuance of digital tokens before a formal listing of its shares in London.
This did not happen, and more conventional flotation is now seen as the goal of World Chess.
A spokesperson for World Chess declined to comment on Friday.

What is the historical significance of the 8-sided font?
How many oxen are under the baptism font?
A baptismal font is a basin, vase, or other receptacle in which water is store for the Christian ritual of baptism. While Jewish cleansing rituals generally occurred outside, the persecution of Christians led them to practice in secret.
twelve oxen
"The font stands upon twelve oxen, four on each side, and two at each end, their heads, shoulders, and fore legs projecting out from under the font; they are carved out of pine plank, glued together, and copied after the most beautiful five-year-old steer that could be found in the country. …
The traditional baptismal font holds the water used for the baptism. It symbolizes the baptismal streams, rivers, or pools of water in centuries past, like the River of Jordan where Christ was baptized by John the Baptist.
The shape can vary. Many are eight-sided as a reminder of the new creation and as a connection to the practice of circumcision, which traditionally occurs on the eighth day. Some are three-sided as a reminder of the Holy Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Believer's baptism (occasionally called credobaptism, from the Latin word credo meaning "I believe") is the practice of baptising those who are able to make a conscious profession of faith, as contrasted to the practice of baptising infants.
The term "Blood Israel" refers only to the original twelve tribes of Israel: Reuben, Simeon, Levi (refuge cities located within green areas), Judah, Dan (migration route indicated in red), Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Issachar, Zebulun, Joseph (entire inheritance area indicated in gray), and Benjamin.
The temple also houses offices, a celestial room for meditation, a bride room and two instruction rooms. Each are small and intimate; church services themselves are not held in the temple. Anyone is welcome to a general service, but after the temple has been dedicated only Mormons will be allowed to enter.
A vessel used for baptism ceremonies. Fonts hold consecrated water used in the baptism of newcomers to the Christian church (usually infants). Fonts are usually located at the west end of the church, often near the south door. Fonts are usually of stone, and often lined with lead.
Why are fonts used? Different fonts are utilized to add style to a web page or document. That is to say, they may be used to set or match the "tone" of the text based on the content. Additionally, certain fonts affect readability depending on the medium.
baptistery, hall or chapel situated close to, or connected with, a church, in which the sacrament of baptism is administered. Customarily, a baptistery was roofed with a dome, the symbol of the heavenly realm toward which the Christian progresses after the first step of baptism.
Eight-sided fonts recall the eighth day, the first day of resurrection. Saint Augustine writes about "the Day of the Lord, an everlasting eighth day." Saint Ambrose explains that a certain font is octagonal "because on the eighth day, by rising, Christ loosens the bondage of death and receives the dead from their graves."
The baptismal fonts in the LDS temples are only used for proxy baptisms of the dead. Baptisms of the living are preformed in the local Stake Center and would resemble other church's fonts. Oxen Cut From Twelve To Six
(A basic baptismal font, typically used in orthodox Christianity.) The significance is more theological, than historical. Saint Ambrose is alleged to have said that fonts and baptisteries were octagonal "because on the eighth day, by rising, Christ loosens the bondage of death and receives the dead from their graves.".
The font stands upon twelve oxen, four on each side, and two at each end, their heads, shoulders, and fore legs projecting out from under the font; they are carved out of pine plank, glued together, and copied after the most beautiful five-year-old steer that could be found in the country,…

Red-light district
This article is about the sex industry term. For other uses, see Red Light District (disambiguation).
A red-light district or pleasure district is a part of an urban area where a concentration of prostitution and sex-oriented businesses, such as sex shops, strip clubs, and adult theaters are found. Areas in many big cities around the world have acquired an international reputation as red-light districts.[1]
The term red-light district originates from the red lights that were used as signs of brothels.[2]
Origins of term
Red-light districts are mentioned in the 1882 minutes of a Woman's Christian Temperance Union meeting in the United States.[3] The Oxford English Dictionary records the earliest known appearance of the term "red light district" in print as an 1894 article from the Sandusky Register, a newspaper in Sandusky, Ohio[2]
Author Paul Wellman suggests that this and other terms associated with the American Old West originated in Dodge City, Kansas, home to a well-known prostitution district during the 19th century, which included the Red Light House saloon.[4] This has not been proven, but the Dodge City use was likely responsible for the term becoming pervasive.[5] A widespread folk etymology claims that early railroad workers took red lanterns with them when they visited brothels so their crew could find them in the event of an emergency. However, folklorist Barbara Mikkelson regards this as unfounded.[6]
One of the many terms used for a red-light district in Japanese is akasen (赤線), literally meaning "red-line". (This has independent origins from the same term in English.) Japanese police drew a red line on maps to indicate the boundaries of legal red-light districts. In Japanese, the term aosen (青線), literally meaning "blue-line", also exists, indicating an illegal district.
In the United States during the 19th and early 20th centuries, the term "sporting district" became popular for legal red-light districts. Municipal governments typically defined such districts explicitly to contain and regulate prostitution.[7]
Some red-light districts (such as De Wallen, Netherlands, or Reeperbahn, Germany) are places which are officially designated by authorities for legal and regulated prostitution.[1] Often, these red-light districts were formed by authorities to help regulate prostitution and other related activities, such that they were confined to a single area.[8]
Some red-light districts (such as those in The Hague)[9] are under video surveillance. This can help counter illegal forms of prostitution (such as child prostitution), in these areas that do allow regular prostitution to occur.

Over the past 20 years, state and local governments, real estate developers, corporations and tenants have all, to varying degrees, jumped on the "green" building bandwagon. Much credit needs to be given to the U.S. Green Building Council and its LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) rating system for promoting sustainable and environmentally friendly development. "Green" buildings have proven not only good for the environment, but good for communities and businesses. The best "green" buildings often enjoy a rent premium and are sited to enhance the livability of the communities in which they are located.
The original focus of the "green" building movement, as represented by LEED, prioritized reducing greenhouse gas pollution generated by buildings. "Green" building success was achieved by architects and engineers developing and using energy efficient building systems and materials and addressing site location issues that impacted waste removal, water runoff and transportation alternatives to the car. A secondary focus was on the health of the building's workers. Points were available for bike rooms, on-site workout facilities and the amount of natural light that penetrated a building. But this focus on the health of the building's workers remained secondary to the energy efficiency/greenhouse gas reduction primary focus.
The WELL Building Standard, created by the International WELL Building Institute, is a relatively new building rating system that promotes work environments that enhance worker health and productivity. WELL requires periodic testing of the air, water, light, thermal comfort and sound levels in a building to determine compliance with measurable standards and tolerance levels developed by professional consultants. As such, WELL is a rating system that is complimentary to LEED, and not in place of LEED. For example, while LEED focuses on the energy efficiency of a building's HVAC system, WELL focuses on the comfort level at each work station. WELL is concerned with temperature variations, air flow and air humidity. All of these impact the performance and productivity of employees.
WELL measures air particles and water purity for health safety issues. In Beijing, China, sophisticated air filtration systems are an essential component of best practice building design and are necessary to provide clean air in a pollution challenged city. Closer to home, water infrastructure issues have made clean water an issue that is getting more attention. WELL also looks at light differently than LEED. Whereas LEED gives points for natural light in the overall building, WELL focuses on light, including task lighting, at the work station level.
With many companies moving to open work spaces, workplace noise has increasingly become an issue. There is noise from building systems, such as elevators and HVAC equipment, but there is also noise from office computers, copiers and other office equipment, and fellow workers. In fact, addressing the noise issues generated from fellow workers has become a real challenge. WELL provides guidance on steps that can be taken to reduce the impact of noise on employee productivity.
WELL also promotes employee health. Having an on-site exercise facility is great, but WELL digs deeper and tracks data on utilization and employer promotion of exercise and healthy eating. WELL evaluates whether the work environment promotes movement within the office and at the work station through ergonomically designed furniture. Proximity of healthy food options for lunch and breaks is also important.
As with LEED, it will take some time for the WELL Building Standard to be broadly implemented and many may choose not to go to the expense of being certified. However, just as elements of LEED are now commonplace in buildings and considered best practices, over time elements of WELL will become commonplace and best practices.


Quantifiers are an important part of English grammar. We can use a few, a little, a lot and lots of to mean "not very much", "not very many" and "plenty of". The one you choose depends on what type of noun you are describing.
We use a few with plural, countable nouns. For example, "A few people came to the party."
We use a little with uncountable nouns. For example, "There's a little coffee left, if you would like some."
We can also use few and little (without "a") to mean very few or very little (i.e. much less in quantity).
For example, "There's little point in calling" (= there's not much point calling).
"There were few people at the concert."
"A few" is more in quantity than "few"; and "a little" is more in quantity than "little".
"Few people understand" (not many people understand), compared to "a few people understand" (some people understand).
In spoken English, we can also say not many, or only a few to mean "few" and only a little or not much to mean "little".
"Not many people came to the party." Or "Only a few people came to the party."
"There was only a little petrol left in the car." Or "There wasn't much petrol left in the car."
The comparative form of "few" is fewer, and the comparative form of "little" is less.
Remember: use "fewer" for plural, countable nouns, and "less" for uncountable nouns.
For example, "There are fewer people here than last year" or "He drinks less coffee than I do".
It is grammatically incorrect to say "There are less people here than last year", as "people" is a plural countable noun.
In spoken English we often use lots of or a lot of. In written English, it is more common to write many (for countable plural nouns) or a great deal of (for uncountable nouns) in positive statements.
A common mistake is to use lot of. For example, "There are lot of accidents on this road". To avoid making this mistake, remember either to use a before lot, or to make lot plural - lots.
We can say either a lot of or lots of before a noun. For example, "There are a lot of people here" or "There are lots of people here". There isn't any difference between the two expressions.
We can use quantifiers like "a lot", "a little" or "not very much" as adverbs.
"He doesn't eat very much!"
"She's beginning to go out a little after the accident."
We can also use these quantifiers as short answers.
"Do you like swimming?", "Yes, a lot." / "Not very much." / "A little!"
For more information on types of nouns, see our page on English articles.
Now try our grammar exercise on quantifiers!
I am pretty sure that saying " There ARE a lot of people here" is incorrect as A lot (One lot) is a singular noun. So, It should be there IS A lot of people here. another way of saying it would be: There are lots of people here.
No: "a lot of" means the same as "lots of". The verb you need (whether is / are) depends on the noun.
I agree with you Clare. You're correct.
Hey guys I would like to know how should we be saying this.
"Here's a few pics from last night" or "Here're few pics from last night".
Thanks Clare. I got it. So whole idea is to use are with countable plural nouns and is with uncountable plural nouns.
I have lots of friends. Is it correct?
I understand that the quantifiers "a few" and "a little" apply to count and uncount nouns respectively. But when we say: "Does your tooth hurt"? "Yes, a little"--little refers to hurt, which is a verb, not a noun. Am I missing something?
"My tooth hurts a lot" / "My tooth hurts a little".
IT'S GOOD. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
i learned lots of thing.
Guys, is it possible to say 'the surf was little heavy to carry' ?
Is an article 'a' is mandatory here?
What part of a sentence it plays then?
Ah maybe he means of the surf board for "surf"?
Thanks Jean - that makes sense!
It clears some doubts in everyday spoken english!
More power to ur elbow!

Finding Alene–Excerpts
by Christina Diamente
There is of course no definitive way of knowing a woman who has been dead for almost two decades. Knowing and understanding her in life was equally complicated. Nineteen years after her death, Alene lives only now in Kerouac's book The Subterraneans, in the fading memories of the few people, still alive, who knew her, and in the faded, disintegrating letters and journal entries she left behind. Excerpts from a woman, who never stopped writing but who never submitted any of her writings for publication, are what remain.
2:00 am, May 28, Memorial Day 1965
How clear everything is just before waking. The inner voice bridging the abyss told me this morning: 'Alene, you said you were going to wait until you were past forty, just like Conrad, before you began to write. Write. You have as much chance of making several hundred dollars, or even a thousand, if you do what you want to do. Why do you feel so guilty? Time is runnin' out. Take hold of life before it is too late.'
But I'm such a coward. I know it is not a question of writing, it is a question of beginning to do what you want to do: not doing 'your thing' but taking your best hold on existence.
Although Alene did make a serious effort to write consistently from that point on, she never wrote in what she or Grove Press editor Fred Jordan considered to be a commercially viable form. Stories were started but never finished. Outlines were written but never fleshed out. Mostly she wrote journal entries when she was angry or troubled, in times of stress or great unhappiness. Always haunted by her childhood, Alene seemed always to be attempting to survive that past, which constantly threatened to catch up to her. Alene had been told by her mother that their "people died young" and she always believed that she would as well. For Alene, the proof of this was in the actual deaths of her mother before age fifty and two of her sisters before sixty. Alene believed that she too would die at an early age. So, as she began to unravel the details of her childhood in Staten Island, it was always with the sense of one who felt she was recording the events of the ongoing procession towards death from her childhood on. The narrative was always about what was lost and about the pain of living.
Throughout her life she struggled with an undiagnosed mental illness that sometimes manifested itself in delusions, sometimes in manic episodes punctuated by fierce pacing, and sometimes in catatonic and almost schizophrenic fugues. In between these states and sometimes through them Alene wrote, sometimes remembering the past and sometimes struggling to make it through the present. Often she wrote about writing. In the following excerpt, Alene wrote about her writing process on a trip that she took back to her childhood home in Staten Island. She was trying to recapture the Staten Island community of her youth in the 1930s.
"I found a room on a narrow street near the docks, with a family that had recently emigrated from Jamaica. How strange to be here, the original 'Quarantine' section of America. Every journey to the island seemed to lead me further back in time, to some original immigrant's landing place . . . or a place of detention.
I dreamed of these streets of long ago, filled with crowds, colorful costumes of many lands, waiting to gain entrance to America.
My whole life has been one long waiting to gain entrance. I was a first generation northerner, but that had never occurred to me, until a couple of years ago. I had no memory of any other place. North Carolina was a place where my mother, Mamie, was left parentless when she was nine years old. It was a place not of fond memories. Nor was Washington DC, where I was born. My mother had never spoken of these places in any manner that left more than a scent of them.
I would like to write about New York, about Staten Island in the 30s and 40s… and the wilderness that once existed there. The Dutch Huguenot section where we used to fish and wander. The people on Ely Street. The Lorillard snuff my mother used to indulge in. The longshoremen and the fighting and the screaming. The Irish I knew, with their children with long curls. The organ grinder man and the monkey who picked your lucky number for a nickel. The large mansions and the dissimilarity of the homes on the island–Italian white stucco homes, and grapevines across from ramshackle broken down tenements. And Polish sullenness, and the West Indians who were the first blacks to own their homes, and the hatred between them and the southern Negroes. The pier where one could fish before it became a Naval base. And long rides down Holland Blvd., where they finally removed the orange lights after 30 years, because they said it caused accidents.
The steep hills… there are very few flat straight roads in Staten Island. Snug Harbor, the old men and the animals and lover's lane. Miss Mary, who stabbed and killed a couple of people and who was only exiled from Staten Island as punishment. My friend, Veronica, who was shot, and her husband who only served one year in jail. And that nasty old sea captain with his fat blowsy, purpled-legged, false eyelashed yet extremely beautiful ex-showgirl wife, who went once a week to the store for liquor. And who still lives there and goes to the A&P once a month. He has long since died. She set the house on fire—the roof is gone but she still lives there like a queen. And, most of all, I want to tell the story of my sisters."
Alene did finally write about her sisters in a short story, recovered here, with all of her sister's real names. In the autobiographical story, Alene recalls her formative childhood experiences in Staten Island of the 1930s. Alene dedicated the story to her mother and sisters of whom she said,
I see even today, walking along 14th Street, or in Harlem, on a subway stair, reflected in expressions of dejection, fear, bitterness, sometimes secret exultation, the faces of Maimie, Catherine, Ressie, Ethel, and myself and know them well. For they are truly the faces of my mother and my sisters and I feel their secret hurts as my own. I feel for you but I just can't reach you. This is my attempt.

You might want to submit part of this article to Wikipedia. They are jerks and won't allow one to post a link to these articles unless there is some vague type of "acceptable" article accompanying them. But aside from the stuffed asses at Wikipedia, their visitors would no doubt find these articles and writings of Alene Lee at Beatdom extremely interesting.
beatdomdavid on January 7, 2011 at 1:46 am
Thanks, John. That's a good idea. Wikipedia actually sends quite a bit of traffic our way. I think that someone used Beatdom as a reference for something connected to William S. Burroughs.
It would be cool to help create an informative page about Alene Lee, and I think 90% of the info would come from Beatdom.

It's probably obvious that I have had tradeshows on the brain lately. But it is also no secret that I am a big fan of them. When done right, exhibiting at a tradeshow can deliver a lot of bang for your buck.
If you have decided to take the plunge and exhibit at a show, I have a few tips to help you cut costs and keep your budget manageable.
When you first contact the show organizer, they will quote you various prices for different-sized booths. For instance, the smallest one available may be a 10×10 (10 feet deep and 10 feet long) than 10×20 (10 feet deep and 20 feet long), etc. Consider these prices to be an opening bid. When it comes to costs and fees at a tradeshow, almost everything is negotiable, especially in an economy like this one.
If you have a new business and this is going to be your first time exhibiting, let them know that you are just starting out. Remember, if you exhibit and have a successful show, you will probably be back the following year. They know this and it is in their best interest to get you in the door the first time. So make sure you haggle.
2. Forget the candy, pens, bags, USB drives and other promotional swag.
A lot of people feel they need to have something to give away at a show to "draw people in." I don't believe in this theory of promotion. Having these items will usually just attract the wrong crowd. Make sure people are taking things for the right reason. For example, if you have a piece of software you want to distribute, you might have considered handing out a USB drive containing a trial or demo. But people will take them for the drive with no intention of trying out your product. Handing out a CD with the software is a much cheaper option, and helps to ensure that the people who bother to take it will try it out.
Supplying an entire show's worth of attendees with free pens or gifts for their kids isn't why you are there exhibiting. Save your money.
3. Forget the fancy lead machines. Buy a business card scanner.
At most tradeshows, they will have a lead scanner available for rent. The machine can scan an attendee's badge and give you a copy of their information. Unlike most show add-ons, I highly suggest you get one. Many attendees won't have enough business cards to hand out to everyone they meet, and they are much more likely to hand over their badge for a quick scan. But there are usually different types of scanners available. The cheapest will probably just scan badges and print out contact information on a roll of paper. The much more expensive scanner with come with the ability to download to a USB drive or download from a website after the show.
Go for the cheapest option, then buy a business card scanner. After the show, you can just run the papers through the card scanner and grab each contact's details. You'll also then have a business card scanner to use for your business (a very handy tool). By scanning the information yourself, you can save literally hundreds of dollars.
4. Use appointment cards. Just like your dentist.
As we have discussed, having a plan for following up after a show is crucial. One option is to set followup appointments with attendees right at the show.
Before the show, have some appointment cards printed that have a place to enter a specific date and time, like the ones that doctors and dentists use. You can have these printed online cheaply (search for "Appointment Cards"). Then at the show, as you get an attendee's information, ask them when a good time to followup would be and try to get them to agree to a specific date and time. Fill out that appointment onto the card then hand it to them as a reminder. (Don't forget to jot it down yourself!) This will make post-show followup much easier for the both of you.
5. Forget the booth babes.
If I wasn't a fan of handing out candy, then I'm probably not going to be an advocate of eye candy either. Having models or actors at your booth are expensive and draw the wrong type of attention. By all means, feel free to staff your booth with attractive people, but everyone working in the booth should be taken seriously. Having a model there just to draw attention rarely leads to sales. And sometimes it just makes you look desperate, like the water filtration system company we saw at the restaurant show who had an actor dressed up as Austin Powers at their booth ("Yeah baby, clean water. Groovy."). There are some exceptions to this rule for certain consumer trade shows (scantily clad women at Comic-con are always a big hit) but if you are targeting industry professionals, leave the ladies at home.
When done on a budget, tradeshows are a great way to build your business. But that budget can spiral out of control if you aren't careful. Forget the distractions, follow these rules, and you will set yourself up for a successful show experience.

Real estate is one of the most exciting sectors in the business world. Many people go into real estate with dreams of becoming successful in the real estate sector. They have the desire to earn a lot of money and live an amazing lifestyle, but the real estate industry is very competitive. Many people approach the real estate industry in the wrong manner. They assume that success will just come. However, regarding real estate, success comes with a lot of hard work and determination.
There are numerous areas in the real estate industry that people can go into to make a name for themselves. While many people are aware of the most popular areas such as real estate agents and real estate brokers, there are other areas where people can make a lot of money and challenge themselves on a daily basis. One of these areas involves loans.
With most real estate deals, loans become a vital part of completing the real estate deals because many people do not have the money needed to purchase real estate by themselves. On the other hand, some people with the money prefer not to use their own money for the entire real estate transactions.
