Social Media Marketing in Lakewood Ranch, Sarasota and Bradenton – Do it Right!
1. All of your social media posts are overly promotional or look like advertisements.
One of the biggest mistakes businesses do is use their social media profiles for pure advertising. Posts on social media should provide some value and be viewed as useful to your audience. Focus on creating discussion with your posts. Social media feeds that are full of promotional posts will quickly drive away any audience you currently have, and certainly will not help build a future audience.
2. You don't frequently update your social media profiles.
Many businesses start off strong, but then the posts become less frequent, and then posting and updates eventually come to a complete stop. Come up with a posting frequency that you will be able to maintain. The worst thing you can do it build up a social audience and then stop posting. That audience will quickly disperse and find other brands to follow and engage with.
3. You use an auto posting solution.
Many companies use plugins that will automatically post their content to all of their social media profiles. While this can be effective under some circumstances, it is much better to test different kinds of content and approaches on each platform separately. For example, something that performs great on Facebook might completely bomb on Twitter. Make sure you get the most out of each social channel; so keep testing until you discover works the best for your brand.
4. Questions and replies are ignored.
5. Your social media audience is not expanding.
Gaining a massive amount of new followers quickly doesn't always translate into successful social media marketing, so we are not talking about sheer numbers here. If you are posting updates and your social audience isn't expanding, then there is a problem. If your current strategy is not resulting in steady follower growth, then it is time to change it up.
6. You do not create posts that encourage or allow engagement and conversation.
Social media is great because it provides a platform to start and carry on two way conversation. Make sure you post in a way that encourages, as well as allows, two way conversation and engagement. Rather then just posting random thoughts, create posts that will trigger engagement and a response from your social media audience.
7. Your social media profiles are not branded correctly.
Many businesses use a mix of personal social media profiles and profiles set up for their business in order to market. It is important to develop a branded social media presence, using the company's name and image. Understanding how to properly brand your marketing campaign is very important. Also, make sure that your social media profiles don't go off track. Stick to your industry/topic and avoid making random posts about topics that are not of interest to your target audience.
8. You don't have a well thought out plan and strategy.
Part of a successful social media marketing strategy involves creating a plan that is well thought out in order to help you achieve the goals of the campaign. Instead of just posting randomly, sit down and develop a plan around what it is that you want to accomplish with your social media marketing. Social media posts can be designed to create brand awareness, drive traffic specific web pages or to encourage sales.

The World Economic Forum and the the Marine Science Institute of University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), have announced a partnership to improve the health of the world's oceans and maritime resources.
The new partnership aims to protect world's $2.5-trillion ocean economy.
This partnership will harness the potential of public-private cooperation and the fourth industrial revolution to help the international community meet the ocean sustainable development goal.
It will be supported by the Benioff Ocean Initiative, an applied programme within UCSB's Marine Science Institute, using science to improve ocean health, and the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, a fund to advance ocean science, protection and management.
Through this new partnership with the World Economic Forum, scientists at UC Santa Barbara who are setting the global agenda for ocean research will also now play a role in setting the global agenda for ocean change.
According to the World Wildlife Fund, oceans generate goods and services worth an estimated $2.5 trillion per year, equivalent to the seventh largest economy in the world.
However, this value — in addition to the livelihoods of 80 per cent of the world's population — is threatened by the decline in ocean health.

Should the Eagles Trade Alshon Jeffery
With the NFL off-season in full motion, the Eagles are looking to move wide receiver Alshon Jeffery after just 3 seasons. Jeffrey, who played an integral part for the Eagles in their 2017 Championship, has shown glimpses of potential for the Eagles, but has never really performed consistently at that level.
By being a large target and the Eagles' #1 wide receiver, Jeffery played a large role in drawing in the defense and attracting the other team's best corner. Because of this, even if Jeffery didn't have a direct role in a play, he still contributed to spacing out the defense and opening up passes to other receivers.
Through this, other Eagles' receivers benefitted such as Nelson Agholor, who had a breakout season in 2017 after Jeffery was signed.
With that said, Jeffery has under-performed in the past two seasons. This is a problem for the Eagles as Jeffery's contract is valued at $52 million, which is the 14th highest contract for wide receivers.
While Jeffery has made big plays, consistency has been a problem for him, as he only has one 800+ receiving yard season in three years in Philly. While the Eagles are an objectively better looking team with Jeffery on it, he is a 29 year old wide receiver with an over-sized contract.
Additionally, both the Eagles and Jeffery have expressed their desire to move on from each other. Jeffery has recently stated that he "would welcome the change of scenery" should he be moved and the Eagles have reportedly been shopping Jeffery along with other players.
One name that is being brought up with Jeffery is offensive tackle Andre Dillard who is going into his second season in 2020. As the Eagles' 2019 first round pick who had a decent year as a rookie, Dillard would be used in a trade to add value to Jeffery and his contract. If this is the case, the Eagles would likely be targeting higher-valued guys such as defensive-end Yannick Ngakoue.
As the Eagles have options and there is no need to have Alshon on their roster, some of these trades could be beneficial to the Eagles. However, the Eagles should not wager away their younger core just alleviate themselves from Jeffery's contract.
Dillard is Philadelphia's next franchise LT, so there's no need to rush his development or trade him away, as offensive tackle is one of the most difficult positions to get adjusted to in the NFL from college.
With the Eagles looking to move Jeffery this off-season, it is important for them to have value in mind and not trade away other important players without much in return. As the Eagles are beginning to shop these kinds of players, they're also trying to prevent a $26 million charge in dead money against the salary cap if Jeffery was cut.
Because of this, a trade involving Jeffery seems all the more likely. With players such as AJ Bouye already being moved this off-season, it's likely that trade talks between the Eagles and teams needing wide receivers have already begun to unfold.

Connecticut Department of Labor begins issuing supplemental $600 stimulus payments for unemployment benefits
Gov. Ned Lamont announced Tuesday that the Connecticut Department of Labor (CTDOL) has successfully programmed its computer system and begun issuing the first round of weekly federal stimulus payments to filers receiving state unemployment benefits, with the first batch of payments having been issued this past weekend. The additional $600 weekly payment, known as Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation, was created as part of the emergency response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is retroactive to March 29, 2020 and will be provided through July 25, 2020. For those who already received unemployment benefits for previous weeks–such as April 4, 11, and 18–the agency will be providing retroactive payments as a lump sum by the end of this week.
Claimants can check their online accounts on the CTDOL website at www.filectui.com and see the deposits were issued over the weekend. Those who receive payments through direct deposit should begin seeing the additional amount appearing in their bank accounts by Tuesday.
The first $600 payments totaled more than $89 million. When combined with nearly $51 million issued in state benefits, the agency provided $140 million in unemployment benefits last weekend.
"Our Department of Labor worked day and night to come up with the technological fixes to ensure benefits were distributed in a timely way to our residents," Lamont said. "There are hundreds of thousands in our state relying on our Department of Labor to help get them through this crisis, and the state's loyal and hard-working team never lost sight of that. This is a difficult time for so many, and I appreciate that these new benefits are being distributed."
"We are pleased to announce that the additional $600 is being added to any benefit issued this past weekend and onward," Labor Commissioner Kurt Westby said. "I want to thank the dedicated and talented staff at the Labor Department, as well as our partners and assisting agencies, for the tireless effort put forth to serve the public. The task was complicated, due to a 40-year-old mainframe using a COBOL operating system. Despite these challenges, we have now processed over 340,000 of the 402,000 claim applications filed since March 13."
CTDOL continues to work nonstop to implement the remaining two recently established federal stimulus programs:
Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA), which provides benefits for self-employed individuals among others, and
Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC), a 13-week extension that allows eligible claimants to collect the additional weeks after exhausting the 26 weeks of state benefits.
The agency expects to begin accepting applications for PUA on April 30 and plans to have PEUC in operation by mid-May. Both programs will be retroactive.

Conductor Gustavo Dudamel: 'In music, there are no walls between cultures'
By Kyle Macdonald
The Venezuelan-Spanish maestro speaks out about music's power to unite, while working with some of the UK & US's finest young musicians.
Gustavo Dudamel, music director of the LA Philharmonic, has spoken out about the power of music to inspire and bring young people together, in an exclusive interview with Classic FM.
The Venezuelan-born maestro told us: "Music can create and unite. It is the best thing. There's no wall between cultures. It's a beautiful connection and when you make that sound together. It's unique and beautiful."
The conductor made the comments in November after an open rehearsal at an NYO Inspire Day in London's Barbican Centre. Members of Classic FM's Orchestra of Teenagers, the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain, were joined by young players from NYO Inspire and the Youth Orchestra Los Angeles (YOLA) – who have now combined under the new name, 'Tuning into Change'.
The open rehearsal was part of the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Gustavo Dudamel's residency as Barbican International Orchestral Partner.
Dudamel said he was proud of all the young players and spoke of the need for more events like this.
Together, the musicians formed an orchestra of 140 players, and with the Venezuelan maestro they rehearsed Shostakovich's Festival Overture. The session in the Barbican's main concert hall was open to members of the public and hundreds of school children from all parts of London.
Gustavo Dudamel with young musicians from @nyo_gb, #nyoinspire and @laphil's YOLA at London's @barbicancentre. Bravo!

The young musicians themselves also spoke of the power of music to bring people together.
We spoke to a violinist in the Youth Orchestra Los Angeles, who said: "For me it was crazy, I couldn't stop smiling, and then I saw the kids out front and they were enjoying it so much."
17-year-old oboist Harvey Jones, an NYO Inspire musician from Belfast, said he had never played as part of such a big woodwind section. He said it was an incredible opportunity and felt like a once-in-a-lifetime chance to get musical advice from a great conductor like Dudamel.
The young players said that although they were working with one of the world's most in-demand conductors, in the rehearsal they felt they all met as equals. One of their trumpeters told us: "We feel like we're professional, and [Dudamel] offering help and giving advice was really special for us."
The conductor added: "Music has the power to take us to a special level of feelings and happiness. It's magic and this is why we do what we do."
A post shared by National Youth Orchestra of GB (@nyo_gb) on Sep 27, 2019 at 9:18am PDT
NYO Inspire provides free opportunities to Grade 6-8+ teenage musicians to develop their orchestral playing (just like this opportunity with Dudamel) – find out more here. There are more NYO Inspire days coming up in 2020, in Birmingham, Newcastle and Sheffield.

2.2 - Outstanding Universal Value
Paragraph 112
"Effective management involves a cycle of short, medium and long-term actions to protect, conserve and present the nominated property. An integrated approach to planning and management is essential to guide the evolution of properties over time and to ensure maintenance of all aspects of their Outstanding Universal Value. This approach goes beyond the property to include any buffer zone(s), as well as the broader setting. The broader setting may relate to the property's topography, natural and built environment, and other elements such as infrastructure, land use patterns, spatial organization, and visual relationships. It may also include related social and cultural practices, economic processes and other intangible dimensions of heritage such as perceptions and associations. Management of the broader setting is related to its role in supporting the Outstanding Universal Value. Its effective management may also contribute to sustainable development, through harnessing the reciprocal benefits for heritage and society."
Theme: 2.2.5.3 - Management systems
Source: OG Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of the World Heritage Convention (WHC.19/01 - 10 July 2019)
Read Download
"States Parties are responsible for implementing effective management activities for a World Heritage property. States Parties should do so in close collaboration with property managers, the agency with management authority and other partners, local communities and indigenous peoples, rights-holders and stakeholders in property management, by developing, when appropriate, equitable governance arrangements, collaborative management systems and redress mechanisms."
"The Committee recommends that States Parties include disaster, climate change and other risk preparedness as an element in their World Heritage site management plans and training strategies."
"Wherever necessary for the proper protection of the property, an adequate buffer zone should be provided."
Theme: 2.2.6.2 - Buffer Zones
"For the purposes of effective protection of the nominated property, a buffer zone is an area surrounding the nominated property which has complementary legal and/or customary restrictions placed on its use and development to give an added layer of protection to the property. This should include the immediate setting of the nominated property, important views and other areas or attributes that are functionally important as a support to the property and its protection. The area constituting the buffer zone should be determined in each case through appropriate mechanisms. Details on the size, characteristics and authorized uses of a buffer zone, as well as a map indicating the precise boundaries of the property and its buffer zone, should be provided in the nomination."
"A clear explanation of how the buffer zone protects the property should also be provided."
"Where no buffer zone is proposed, the nomination should include a statement as to why a buffer zone is not required."
"Although buffer zones are not part of the nominated property, any modifications to or creation of buffer zones subsequent to inscription of a property on the World Heritage List should be approved by the World Heritage Committee using the procedure for a minor boundary modification (see paragraph 164 and Annex 11). The creation of buffer zones subsequent to inscription is normally considered to be a minor boundary modification."
"A minor modification is one which has not a significant impact on the extent of the property nor affects its Outstanding Universal Value."
Theme: 2.2.6.3 - Minor modifications to the boundaries
"If a State Party wishes to request a minor modification to the boundaries of a property already on the World Heritage List, it must be prepared in compliance with the format of Annex 11 and must be received by 1 February by the Committee through the Secretariat, which will seek the evaluation of the relevant Advisory Bodies on whether this can be considered a minor modification or not. The Secretariat shall then submit the Advisory Bodies' evaluation to the World Heritage Committee. The Committee may approve such a modification, or it may consider that the modification to the boundary is sufficiently significant as to constitute a significant boundary modification of the property, in which case the procedure for new nominations will apply."
3. Justification for Inscription
"[For a nomination to be considered as "complete", the following requirements (see format in Annex 5) are to be met:] (…) In section 3.2, a comparative analysis of the property in relation to similar properties, whether or not on the World Heritage List, both at the national and international levels, shall be provided. The comparative analysis shall explain the importance of the nominated property in its national and international context."
Theme: 2.6 - Comparative studies
Decision of the World Heritage Committee CONF 003 XI.35
(ii) "In its justification of the outstanding universal value of the property nominated, each State should, whenever possible, undertake a sufficiently wide comparison."
Decision: 3 COM XI.35
Decision of the World Heritage Committee 7 EXT.COM 4A
III. COMPARATIVE ANALYSES
7. "[The World Heritage Committee] decides that comparative analyses by States Parties as part of the nomination dossier shall be undertaken in relation to similar properties, whether or not on the World Heritage List, both at the national and international levels."
Decision: 7 EXT.COM 4A
Synthesis based on relevant Committee decisions
The World Heritage Committee recommends undertaking a deep comparative analysis in order to demonstrate the Outstanding Universal Value of the property by fully assessing the relative values of the nominated property against other sites (based on Case law on decisions on Nominations).
See for examples Decisions: 34 COM 8B.7 34 COM 8B.3 35 COM 8B.16 36 COM 8B.35 37 COM 8B.21 37 COM 8B.17 37 COM 8B.11 38 COM 8B.22 38 COM 8B.18 38 COM 8B.17
2.7 - Types of World Heritage properties
"Cultural and natural heritage are defined in Articles 1 and 2 of the World Heritage Convention.
For the purposes of this Convention, the following shall be considered as "cultural heritage";
- monuments: architectural works, works of monumental sculpture and painting, elements or structures of an archaeological nature, inscriptions, cave dwellings and combinations of features, which are of Outstanding Universal Value from the point of view of history, art or science;
- groups of buildings: groups of separate or connected buildings which, because of their architecture, their homogeneity or their place in the landscape, are of Outstanding Universal Value from the point of view of history, art or science;
- sites: works of man or the combined works of nature and of man, and areas including archaeological sites which are of Outstanding Universal Value from the historical, aesthetic, ethnological or anthropological points of view.
For the purposes of this Convention, the following shall be considered as "natural heritage":
- natural features consisting of physical and biological formations or groups of such formations, which are of Outstanding Universal Value from the aesthetic or scientific point of view;
geological and physiographical formations and precisely delineated areas which constitute the habitat of threatened species of animals and plants of Outstanding Universal Value from the point of view of science or conservation;
- natural sites or precisely delineated natural areas of Outstanding Universal Value from the point of view of science, conservation or natural beauty."
Theme: 2.7.1 - Cultural, Natural and Mixed Properties
"Properties shall be considered as "mixed cultural and natural heritage" if they satisfy a part or the whole of the definitions of both cultural and natural heritage laid out in Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention."
Decision of the World Heritage Committee 41 COM 9B
4. "[The World Heritage Committee] reiterates that due to the complexity of mixed site nominations and their evaluation, States Parties should ideally seek prior advice from IUCN and ICOMOS, if possible at least two years before a potential nomination is submitted, in compliance with Paragraph 122 of the Operational Guidelines."
Decision: 41 COM 9B
"A nominated property may occur:
a) on the territory of a single State Party, or
b) on the territory of all concerned States Parties having adjacent borders (transboundary property)."
Theme: 2.7.2 - Transboundary and transnational properties
"Wherever possible, transboundary nominations should be prepared and submitted by States Parties jointly in conformity with Article 11.3 of the Convention. It is highly recommended that the States Parties concerned establish a joint management committee or similar body to oversee the management of the whole of a transboundary property."
"Extensions to an existing World Heritage property located in one State Party may be proposed to become transboundary properties."

The culprit was a mysterious plant disease called "wheat rust." The impact on the farming industry and the Canadian economy was devastating. Farmers threatened to go on strike unless the government provided research money and scientists to find a method of getting rid of the wheat rust fungus, which had plagued them for many years...[inventivewomen.com]

mr.play: Our Verdict
mr.play sport is a new kid on the sportsbook block that launched in 2019. So we were highly impressed with the large selection of sports to bet on and competitive odds. There are still things that mr.play needs to improve. These include the mobile design, loading times and especially slow responsiveness from customer support. But overall, mr.play sportsbook follows the footsteps of its older casino sibling, offering a vibrant brand full of fun, attractive promotions and a laid-back gambling experience for casual gamblers.
Experienced bettors may want to look elsewhere for specialised bets, but if you are a casual player or into soccer betting at all levels, we definitely recommend mr.play. Click on the link on this page to sign up today, and mr.play will double your first deposit by up to £50 ($, € or other local currencies too).

Darren Hughes
mr.play is relatively new to the betting scene and offers a wide range of gambling services, including a sportsbook and a casino. With a bonus-heavy casino being the main offering to entice players, the sportsbook gets less TLC. The variety of games offered by mr.play's casino is almost unparalleled in the industry, and with an easy-to-navigate site and a swift withdrawal process (once you beat the bonus wagering requirements), it is well placed to grow in the coming months and years.
Player Verdict Player
Charlie Mullan
The website with the big black moustache as its trademark offers its customers a very clear and well set out site. There is more of a fun element to its site than others, and its mr.play Battle betting tournament in a variety of sports is an example of that. Win the tournament or finish in the top three customers against fellow bettors, and they will receive their top prizes. For serious bettors, everything you'd expect from a leading site is available.
mr.play Promo Codes
Much like with other sportsbooks, mr.play sport offers a range of competitive promo codes. Promo codes are unique combinations of characters, numbers and symbols used to redeem generous bonuses. These bonuses could be exclusive to a new customer or give bonuses for specific sports or events. The range is vast, and the rewards are generous.
If you're still confused, here is an example: You may be prompted with a box that says "Promo Code" during your registration or deposit process. You may have a code for a £30 free bet "FREE-£30". Simply enter this code into the box and continue following the registration steps. Your £/$/€30 free bet will be available to you when your account is opened. It's that easy!
The code used above is just an example, and entering while registering will redeem no bonuses. For real and exciting promo codes, check our website for offers, or click on the link on this page to visit the mr.play website.
If you are an existing customer, you will also be able to claim many lucrative promotions. Luckily for you, mr.play also constantly updates its betting offers for existing members, so keep an eye out for the next great offer.
Examples of Promo Codes
Here are some examples of the kind of promo codes you may find on mr.play sport or other popular sportsbooks from time to time. Although these offers may not be available currently, bookmakers constantly update their sites with new and exciting promotions. What's even better, many sportsbook bonuses do not even require a promo code!
Welcome Offer Code: A promotion available to new players only.
Exclusive Bonus Code: Provides exclusive access to a bonus.
Market Code: Allows players to claim a bonus for a specific sport.
Event Code: Gives access to a promotion for sports betting on a specific event.
Risk-Free Code: Provides a risk-free bet.
Casino Promo Code: Offers bettors a casino bonus.
mr.play Welcome Bonuses
Like most sportsbooks, mr.play offers any prospective new customer a welcome bonus offer upon registering. Our mr.play review team found this sportsbook's bonuses compete with the very best offered by leading bookmakers, and you can find out more about them below.
mr.play Free Bet Offers
A free bet offer is a favourite with bettors due to its simplicity and potential for rewards. For these offers, you have to deposit a qualifying amount into your account, wager that amount on odds of a certain amount, and then you will receive a free bet that you can place to return real money.
Deposit Bonus Offers
Deposit bonuses are offers in which the sportsbook will match your initial deposit with a certain amount. mr.play sportsbook is offering a deposit bonus, and so we can use this as an example.
mr.play and other sportsbooks will usually offer a 100% match on your first deposit. For example, if the offer will be of a 100% deposit match bonusmatch bonus up to £100, the sportsbook will double your deposit with bonus credits up to £100 (can also be $, € or another local currency). So if you take maximum advantage of the promotion and deposit £100, you will have £200 to wager with.
Note, that although you can keep your winnings from bets made on bonus money, mr.play and other sportsbooks have wagering requirements that mean you must bet through the bonus money several times before being able to cash out winnings. Check the mr.play bonus terms and conditions for more details.
No Deposit Bonus Offers
These are the most sought-after bonuses in the betting community as they give players a chance to claim bonuses and place bets without spending any of their own money. Unlike the bets above, a no deposit bonus offer does not require you to deposit any money into your account. You simply create an account and receive a free bet that could return you cash, subject to wagering conditions. Still, if this bonus sounds too good to be true, it almost is. This is why no deposit bonuses are pretty hard to find, but they are still worth looking for.
About mr.play
mr.play is owned and operated by MarketPlay Ltd, a company that also offers casino and virtual sports. MarketPlay is an experienced casino operator that recently branched into sports betting. It also owns and operates RegentPlay and Queenplay, albeit in different jurisdictions.
mr.play is an online gambling brand established in 2017 by industry veterans who wanted to shake things up and bring something new to the market. Appealing to a younger generation of gamblers, mr.play provides a vibrant, fun experience with a funny and entertaining brand. Following its casino's success, mr.play launched its sportsbook in 2019. It offers the same great theme, fun design and robust platform as the casino.
But don't be fooled by the fun and banter this site brings. The mr.play team brings decades of online gambling experience. So mr.play provides one of the most professional, slick gaming experiences available to UK sports betting players.
mr.play is licenced by the UKGC (UK Gambling Commission) and MGA (Malta Gaming Authority). Therefore, no matter where you play from, mr.play sportsbook adheres to the strict standards and rules of two of the world's most respected gambling regulators.
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology is used on the mr.play website. This ensures all sensitive data is kept completely private. A firewall protects it, and all personal information is kept confidential and secure. mr.play sport also follows strict player protection and privacy protocols. So unless you agree, your information will never be shared with any third parties.
mr.play Desktop Experience
Seasoned users of international betting sites may be impressed with mr.play's offers or its extensive markets, but what about its user experience? Our expert team spent some time using mr.play's desktop sportsbook and were impressed with the sleek and practical design. Everything you need is found on the homepage, from important live events to links to all of its sports offerings. A handy search bar feature means the betting market you want is only a few keystrokes away.
We have to note that we experienced some speed issues while loading mr.play's sportsbook. Sometimes certain pages, such as the "highlights" page, take almost a minute to load. Although its practical design and functionality will impress some bettors, those looking to take advantage of in-play betting may be disappointed with the poor response time.
Still, when mr.play's markets do load, they are fast to update. mr.play sports is aware that different customers prefer to read and use their odds in different formats. Therefore it offers bettors other options for odds including, decimal, fraction and American odds.
mr.play Mobile Experience
Built with HTML5 technology, the mr.play sports website is responsive and optimised for mobile browsers. So you can use its instant-play version on a computer or browser of Android, iOS and Windows Phone tablets and smartphones. This sportsbook also offers a mobile app that is available for Android devices. As a fairly new sportsbook, there isn't an iOS app currently.
Our team was impressed by the simple design and easy way to search and find the best odds, events and bets. But the smaller screen sizes we tested didn't show a great layout. We had to scroll a lot, and many of the items were cluttered and hard to find. It may become frustrating when trying to choose different betting options. But still, the clear categories and the menus save the day. We enjoyed switching between sports easily and quickly. So overall, mr.play lends itself well to online betting.
mr.play sports has an Android app that is laid out effectively. The sportsbook app shows all markets and sports in easy to find categories. And the design is elegant and clean. If you are looking to use the mr.play sportsbook on the go and have an Android device, the app is by far your best option. But otherwise, the mobile browser version also does the job.
IOS App Android App Mobile Live Streaming
mr.play Registration Process
You may be excited to redeem some of these competitive welcome bonuses, but you will have to register with the sportsbook to do that. Our team at Bookmakers.com has you covered. Part of our extensive mr.play sport review was to test the registration process and the security measures mr.play uses to keep customers safe.

Provide the requested information, such as DOB, address and country of residence.
Create a unique username and memorable password.
If you have a promo code to redeem, enter it in the allocated space. If not, don't worry. It won't affect your signup.
Once you sign up, head over to the cashier section, select your preferred payment method and follow mr.play's steps to deposit.
Search for the sports or events you wish to bet on.
Enter your bets and stake on the bet slip, and click "Place Bets".
If you are lucky and your bets win, visit the cashier page and follow the withdrawal steps.
mr.play Account Verification
mr.play sports has numerous security features to keep its bettors safe, one of which is a part of the registration process. Verifying your identity with official documents helps mr.play sportsbook prevent underage bettors from signing up and ensure it is a safe and legal space for all customers.
To submit your documents for account verification, you can email mr.play clear photos of the necessary paperwork or scan copies and attach them to an email. You can also upload your documents directly to the mr.play website through your dedicated account area. It doesn't matter which method you choose; mr.play sports will guide you through this process as part of its registration process.
Below are examples of documents you may be requested to send:
Photo ID (passport, driver's license or another formal ID)
Proof of address (a recent utility bill)
Proof of payment method used (a bank statement or photo of your credit card)
mr.play Payment Methods
mr.play sport offers deposits and withdrawals through most major payment providers, including credit and debit cards, e-wallets like Skrill and Neteller, and prepaid cards such as PaySafeCard. In addition, there are many localised payment methods for specific countries and markets. Most payment methods won't incur exchange fees or currency transactions.
mr.play's banking section features many more payment methods available for specific currencies and markets. But GBP payment methods are pretty limited. Notably, UK players cannot use bank transfers. But even with a basic selection available, most UK players will find a payment method to use.
The Maximum monthly withdrawal is £7,000 or an equivalent in your local currency. Withdrawals take up to two days for e-wallets, from 0-6 days for card payments and between two and six days for bank transfers. Keep in mind that withdrawal times and limits may vary depending on the method used.
You can also select to manage your account in one of the following currencies:
mr.play Global Betting Features
mr.play sport offers live betting on various sports, with its in-play betting markets including prominent sports like football, tennis and basketball. But it also provides markets on niche sports such as handball. mr.play's live betting allows many standard bets to be placed in real-time. If you want to limit risk, mr.play sports offers an early cashout.
Live bets are offered right after kick off, and there's a five-to-10-second delay in placing bets to avoid transmission delays or other impacts to the event.
One thing our betting experts love, along with in-play betting, is live streaming, so you can follow events and trace your bets in real time. However, mr.play doesn't currently offer live streaming. But we sure hope for it to be added soon.
mr.play offers something for everyone. The operator claims on its website to have the "Best Odds on Masses of Betting Markets." This sportsbook aspires to cater to all bettors, from casual players to more experienced bettors looking for more specific markets.
mr.play sports takes simple, single bets that allow you to win the stake amount, multiplied by the event odds. More bets featured are combo bets and accumulators. These allow bettors to increase their potential payout by combining bets. The mr.play odds available that correspond to the selections are multiplied by each other for potentially more significant wins. You can combine as many choices as you want, but note that the cap on potential winnings will still restrict withdrawals.
mr.play Sports and Markets
Our experts have already mentioned the large array of sports that mr.play has to offer. Here we will dive into the markets and promotions available on the most popular sports.
Where mr.play sports shines is with soccer betting odds. This sportsbook offered some of the best odds we could find for specific events and matches. mr.play offers bets on every professional football league in the UK. From the English Premier League, through the Championship and all the way to lower leagues.
Of course, there is also world football like the German Bundesliga, Italian Serie A, Spanish La Liga, UEFA Champions League and more. If you'd like to dive deep into specific markets, it offers categories such as Main, Goals, Halves, Corners, Players, Specials and Cards.
mr.play sportsbook offers a full breadth of markets for fans of NFL betting to enjoy. Bets can be large in scope with markets such as outright divisional winners and MVP prop bets available. If you want more specific bets, mr.play has you covered as well, with every game having moneyline winners, over/under spreads and handicap spreads to wager on.
To make your betting informed, mr.play sports offers data about the teams you wish to bet on, including recent form, average points per game, and breakdowns of their previous games. All of this makes mr.play's NFl betting quite enticing for fans.
Most basketball lovers are NBA fans, but for those who prefer leagues such as the EuroLeague, Liga ACB and more, mr.play has you covered. All the games across every league have in-play betting, which basketball fans love. This means you can make the best bets at the right time, hopefully, to win wagers.
You can also expect to see the most popular markets, with outright game-winners, winning margins and total team points bets. mr.play lets you make the choices you want, with such a massive spread of options allowing you to get the best betting experience.
Tennis betting is much more than just the Opens nowadays, with coverage of the ATP and WTA increasing. mr.play sport is right up to date, offering odds and exciting markets on these tournaments.
Of course, mr.play's coverage of Open tournaments remains up there with some of the best sportsbooks. It gives outrights and in-play betting equal importance and attention, so mr.play's odds will suit any type of bettor.
Cricket is evolving to keep up with a younger audience, and so are its betting markets at the mr.play sportsbook. The emergence of formats like ODIs and T20Is have helped the popularity of in-play betting on cricket increase. Games can change on a single wicket, and bettors enjoy the thrill of betting on such fluid markets.
For those who prefer the longer format that international Test cricket provides, there are plenty of markets, such as top batsman, top bowler and even the team to win the toss, to keep fans engaged with their beloved sport.
Baseball is a sport that provides high scoring games and sometimes thrilling upsets. It is disappointing to report that in our mr.play review, we found that you could only bet on the winners of games and outrights. In-play betting is available, but fans of MLB will be disappointed with the lack of depth in the markets.
Still, there are multiple leagues to bet on, with mr.play sport offering odds on the Japan NPB League and South Korean KBO League. All the odds offered are competitive and give bettors chances to win big on America's favourite pastime.
Ice hockey is not as big a sport in Western Europe as it is in North America. But this doesn't stop mr.play sportsbook from offering comprehensive betting markets on the NHL with puck-lines and other favourites. Those familiar with the sport will find everything they need, and those who want to learn will find the more straightforward markets to bet on, such as match winners, appealing.
The appeal of Golf betting to many players is wide as it offers the chance for upsets. Golf bettors often make bets on less favoured golfers in the hopes of big returns. mr.play sportsbook covers all the big tournaments from the PGA Tour and the European Tour, and golf bettors can find a decent range of markets to choose from when making wagers.

mr.play Customer Support
If you want to look for answers to common issues quickly, visit mr.play sportsbook's FAQ section. We found it helpful and easy to navigate. So finding answers to many common questions was a breeze. However, it would have been good to have some more info and detailed explanations. If you still need to contact customer service, you can reach mr.play sportsbook's support team via email and live chat. Support is available between 08:00 and midnight CET seven days a week. mr.play also has a Twitter account you can reach out to for help.
One major point for improvement is the support team's response times and accessibility. mr.play's support is challenging to get hold of. When we eventually reached them, live-chat agents didn't seem knowledgeable and tended to repeat answers to questions. It seemed as if they were copying answers out of script. Support was lacking, with long wait times and unclear answers given. So when it comes to mr.play's support, there's a lot of room for improvement.
Many gamblers enjoy betting on online casinos while they place their wagers on sportsbooks, and so numerous sportsbooks have been combining the experience. Slots, progressive jackpots, table games and more are the exciting types of casino games you can expect to find at these online casinos.

With thousands of players looking to play at any moment of the day, you can always log in and find a game offering great prizes at selected sites.
As of yet, mr.play does not offer any online poker to its customers, but as many players who use sportsbooks also enjoy online poker, we hope this will change soon.
mr.play Bingo
Many people like bingo because it doesn't require a lot of skill, and the focus is on its players having fun by offering big prizes and a worldwide community. Players can join bingo rooms and interact with each other and bingo callers in live chats while they check their numbers and hope today is their lucky day.
Bingo is a vibrant and fun game, which is why so many people like it. However, it isn't as popular with some sports bettors, which may explain why mr.play doesn't offer any kind of bingo product. But for such a fun brand that caters to casual gamers, we think bingo could be a great addition to the sportsbook's stable of products.
mr.play Lottery
Lotteries are some of the oldest kinds of gambling, and their longevity is easy to understand. Simple to play and life-changing prizes - what's not to love? With the rise of online gambling, fans of lottery games can now choose to bet on the biggest draws in the world and partake in the thrill from their own home.
Some sportsbooks allow players to bet on lotteries while placing their other bets, but mr.play does not operate any lottery games.
mr.play Responsible Gambling
This mr.play sportsbook review found a strong emphasis on responsible gambling from every part of the products offered. mr.play's compliance with gambling regulators means it protects minors with its robust regulations and signup policies.
With this sportsbook, the trained support team try to spot problem gambling patterns and know how to act once these have been identified. Users can request self-exclusion times during which they won't receive promotional marketing. You can even block your own access from the website. Deposit limits are easy to find and set up, and everything on the site is there to remind players that gambling is a form of entertainment and not a way to make money or pay back debts. mr.play will provide full deposit and account histories on demand.

With all of these policies, it is clear that mr.play values its customers and has protected them as best as it can. This makes mr.play a safe environment in which betting is encouraged as a form of entertainment where everyone can have fun.

However, some Canadian provinces like Quebec and British Columbia regulate their own online gambling sites. For this reason,mr.play sport may not be available in some parts of Canada.

This is due to the wide range of sports covered and the top odds offered on those sports. With so much choice, it is no surprise that New Zealanders have found it caters to their every need.

Last week I had the joy of taking part with a Chinese colleague, Hao Wang in a podcast about surrogacy. Hao is a partner in RayYin & Partners, a prominent Beijing law firm. Hao specialises in family law matters (including children and property) including overseas trust planning. She has spoken and been published widely concerning family law and trust law.
It was quite extraordinary to attend at her office in Beijing and then to take part in a podcast to talk about surrogacy. Hao introduced me in Chinese. During the introduction the only words I understood were surrogacy and Stephen Page. We then participated in a long interview in which I gave an overview about surrogacy and international egg and sperm donation including that available to Chinese citizens, and then we had the wrap up thank you – again in Chinese and again the only words I understood were surrogacy and Stephen Page!
One of Hao's interns will have the joyful task of translating my words into Chinese characters, a task which is somewhat difficult given some of the necessarily technical terms that are involved with surrogacy. It was an honour and a privilege to take part in the podcast.

KVUE's Tina Shively is trading early mornings for the late-night shift.
Shively, who joined the city's ABC affiliate about three years ago and has primarily served as a reporter on "Daybreak" and "Midday," will start a new job Monday as the station's social media specialist.
It's similar to the role 4:30 a.m. anchor Cori Coffin plays on the 5 a.m. and 6 a.m. editions of "Daybreak," Shively said.
During a typical newscast, look for Shively to pop up a couple times, depending on what's going on. One minute, she might be sharing details on a breaking story. The next, she'll be telling evening anchors Quita Culpepper, Terri Gruca and Tyler Sieswerda what's trending on Twitter.
Shively says leaving her morning colleagues – Coffin, meteorologist Albert Ramon and anchors Yvonne Nava and Bryan Mays – will be hard, but she's also looking forward to what's next.


It only makes sense for business owners to do quality testing. After all, the products and services you sell will be the reason why customers go to your shop, store, or office. Restaurant owners need to maintain the quality of their food and drinks just like how auto mechanics need to keep their repair services reliable.
It will also help if people know your contact information, be it a website, mailing address, or phone number. This way, customers or clients will be able to air any concern they have about your products or services. It might be negative, such as a complaint regarding rude staff members, or positive, such as praise for a new product.
Incompetent workers or employees will negatively affect the products and services offered by your business. This explains why you should only hire qualified applicants, however ruthless this might sound. In the end, it protects both you and your customers from experiencing poorly rendered service.
For businesses with computers and similar technology on their premises, enough security is necessary. By consulting an IT expert, you can have your computers firewalled or protected from hacking, which might steal data like credit card info or business contracts.
To conclude, business owners must make their office or shop stand out among other services. To do this, qualified applicants should be hired, customer concerns should be addressed, and quality testing should be done. Doing these things for your business will reward you with satisfied customers, more sales, and security.

Pants and skirts with elastic waistbands become convenient apparel as we age, even if we have no physical difficulties; but dressing and grooming present more challenges if we're among the 56.7 million Americans (19 percent of the population, according to the 2010 census) who have a disability. I have come to identify with this group, as my husband, Tom, has slowly become – after his Parkinson's diagnosis in 2008 – among the one in four people ages 65-69 to suffer a severe disability.
I'm definitely not a hoverer and have preferred to buy buttonhooks at a local pharmacy for Tom's buttoning. He finds those helpful, yet they still assist in keeping his fine-motor skills in practice. However, sometimes one-too-many buttons exasperate anyone, and zippered and pullover tops are useful backups. Every new convenience becomes a balancing act: how to make life easier without giving up the greater satisfaction (and independence) that comes with a bit of extra exertion.
Though I've had limited experience with adaptive clothing, I began exploring the items seriously when I realized Tom might need them more in the future.
Those with physical disabilities from birth or from later trauma or with diseases such as ALS, MS, Parkinson's and arthritis can't typically walk into shopping malls and buy clothes they can put on and take off without help.
Lately, however, more companies have begun to adapt clothing. Tommy Hilfiger's Runway of Dreams program creates adaptive clothing for boys sizes 4-20 and girls sizes 4-18, (usa.tommy.com/en/runway-of-dreams). Van Heusen markets magnet-closure dress shirts at select retailers (VanHeusen.com/magnaclick).
Niche manufacturers and distributors specialize in easy-on and easy-off clothing and accessories. Buck & Buck (BuckAndBuck.com) and Silvert's (Silverts.com) offer a wide range of footwear, adaptive clothing and accessories for independent dressing or assisted dressing. Options include Velcro-closure shoes (some feature removable, cushioned insoles to accommodate orthotic inserts); magnetic-close shirts and blouses; front-closure snap-front bras; pants with two-way zippers that open for access to casts and catheters; adaptive open-back tops that allow individuals' arms to slide into the sleeves without having to raise their arms or struggle with small neck openings; wheelchair pants; and more.
Buck & Buck, whose assisted-clothing business dates to the 1930s, also offers custom alterations (about $10 per purchase, according to its website).
Joyce Powell, a Goochland resident, says one of her granddaughters has ordered Buck & Buck clothing several times for Joyce's husband, Granddad Walter, whose Parkinson's manifests itself in tremors in his right hand.
"He finds Velcro closures on shirts and pants much easier than manipulating a zipper pull," she says.
Walter, whose feet are also very sensitive, has had shoes custom-made by one of Richmond's specialty shoe companies.
Erin Buckley, occupational therapist at Richmond's McGuire Veterans Affairs Medical Center, points to items such as "reachers" and sock aids (sold in some pharmacies, medical-supply stores and online) that can be very helpful in dressing. Some eyeglass cords are available in pharmacies, but I had to go to an optometry retail shop to find plain black cords.
Other helpful products are available at GoldViolin.blair.com and PerformanceHealth.com.
Contemporary clothing, accessories and aids bolster independence and dignity, values that are useful for those with disabilities and their loved ones.

Nov. 15 is a day devoted to the notion that to give is to receive.
Philanthropy Day recognizes the importance of giving back.
Culbertson recently helped judge Dupaco's annual Philanthropy Day poster contest. Dupaco's youngest members were tasked with illustrating how they give back and help others.
Most children focused on how they treat one another, Culbertson said. They give back by being kind, serving as a better friend, stopping bullying and helping those who are sad.
Giving back isn't always in the form of a check. Seek out opportunities to volunteer your time and talents to organizations and causes that are meaningful to you.
Of course, there are those in need of tangible items too. Families can work together to clean out their closets and cabinets and donate items to those who need them most.
"I would love to see families work together on providing items to others," Culbertson said.
It's not too late to build sharing into your holiday shopping budget. Many employers, churches and organizations offer opportunities to adopt a family during the holidays.
Starting this month, each time you go shopping, pick up something small that can become part of a bigger gift for a family in need, Culbertson suggested. If you have a bigger gift item in mind, set aside $5 each time you shop. You'll be surprised how fast those dollars add up. Even the change in your pocket or purse can be used for sharing.
When buying gifts for others, allow your kids to help choose the items so they feel like they are part of the process.
Visit Dupaco's Life Events section for more ways to teach children to give back.

Home » Welcome to OpenID Connect
Welcome to OpenID Connect
What is OpenID Connect?
OpenID Connect 1.0 is a simple identity layer on top of the OAuth 2.0 protocol. It allows Clients to verify the identity of the End-User based on the authentication performed by an Authorization Server, as well as to obtain basic profile information about the End-User in an interoperable and REST-like manner.
OpenID Connect allows clients of all types, including Web-based, mobile, and JavaScript clients, to request and receive information about authenticated sessions and end-users. The specification suite is extensible, allowing participants to use optional features such as encryption of identity data, discovery of OpenID Providers, and logout, when it makes sense for them.
See https://openid.net/connect/faq/ for a set of answers to Frequently Asked Questions about OpenID Connect.
How is OpenID Connect different than OpenID 2.0?
OpenID Connect performs many of the same tasks as OpenID 2.0, but does so in a way that is API-friendly, and usable by native and mobile applications. OpenID Connect defines optional mechanisms for robust signing and encryption. Whereas integration of OAuth 1.0a and OpenID 2.0 required an extension, in OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0 capabilities are integrated with the protocol itself.
Specification Organization
The OpenID Connect 1.0 specification consists of these documents:
Core – Defines the core OpenID Connect functionality: authentication built on top of OAuth 2.0 and the use of Claims to communicate information about the End-User
Discovery – Defines how Clients dynamically discover information about OpenID Providers
Dynamic Registration – Defines how clients dynamically register with OpenID Providers
OAuth 2.0 Multiple Response Types – Defines several specific new OAuth 2.0 response types
OAuth 2.0 Form Post Response Mode – Defines how to return OAuth 2.0 Authorization Response parameters (including OpenID Connect Authentication Response parameters) using HTML form values that are auto-submitted by the User Agent using HTTP POST
RP-Initiated Logout – Defines how a Relying Party requests that an OpenID Provider log out the End-User
Session Management – Defines how to manage OpenID Connect sessions, including postMessage-based logout and RP-initiated logout functionality
Front-Channel Logout – Defines a front-channel logout mechanism that does not use an OP iframe on RP pages
Back-Channel Logout – Defines a logout mechanism that uses direct back-channel communication between the OP and RPs being logged out
OpenID Connect Federation – Defines how sets of OPs and RPs can establish trust by utilizing a Federation Operator
Initiating User Registration via OpenID Connect – Defines the prompt=create authentication request parameter
Two implementer's guides are also available to serve as self-contained references for implementers of basic Web-based Relying Parties:
Basic Client Implementer'S Guide – Simple subset of the Core functionality for a web-based Relying Party using the OAuth code flow
Implicit Client Implementer'S Guide – Simple subset of the Core functionality for a web-based Relying Party using the OAuth implicit flow
A protocol migration specification has been finalized:
OpenID 2.0 to OpenID Connect Migration 1.0 – Defines how to migrate from OpenID 2.0 to OpenID Connect
The OpenID for Verifiable Credentials work includes these Implementer's Drafts:
Self-Issued OpenID Provider V2 – Enables End-users to use OpenID Providers (OPs) that they control
OpenID for Verifiable Presentations – This specification defines a mechanism on top of OAuth 2.0 to allow presentation of claims in the form of verifiable credentials as part of the protocol flow
Finally, see the working group status page for the new work the OpenID Connect working group is engaged in.
The original OpenID Connect 1.0 specifications and other specifications they are built upon are shown in the diagram below. Click on the boxes in the diagram to view the specification.
Participation in the Working Group
The easiest way to monitor progress on the OpenID Connect 1.0 Specification is to join the mailing list at https://lists.openid.net/mailman/listinfo/openid-specs-ab.
Please note that while anyone can join the mailing list as a read-only recipient, posting to the mailing list or contributing to the specifications requires the submission of an IPR Agreement. More information is available at https://openid.net/intellectual-property. Make sure to specify the working group as "OpenID AB/Connect", because this group is a merged working group and both names must be specified.
For more details on participating, see the OpenID Connect Working Group Page.
The Libraries page lists libraries that implement OpenID Connect and related specifications.
Final OpenID Connect specifications were launched on February 26, 2014.
The certification program for OpenID Connect was launched on April 22, 2015.
Final OAuth 2.0 Form Post Response Mode Specification was approved on April 27, 2015.
OpenID Certification for RPs was made available to all in August 2017.
Third Implementer's Draft of OpenID Connect Federation Specification Approved on November 11, 2021.
OpenID Foundation Publishes "OpenID for Verifiable Credentials" Whitepaper on May 12, 2022.
The OpenID Connect Logout specifications are now Final Specifications on September 12, 2022.
We created a page about the OpenID for Verifiable Credentials work on November 11, 2022.
