Expanding your mission beyond the bricks and mortar: Cooperstown, TeamWorks Media and La Vida Baseball
May 1, 2018 in General by Charity Counts
By Tab Bamford of TeamWorks Media
The focus for many museums feels like a real estate agent's: location, location, location. Even in big cities like Chicago, there are often two key elements that come into play when trying to engage your core audiences:
1) How do we become a destination for visitors?
2) How do we better engage our local audiences?
Those questions are tied to the notion that brick and mortar institutions represent the limits of the museum's relevance.
But what about the larger, boundless conversations happening around your institution's mission and subject matter?
Baseball as cultural touchstone
Baseball often mirrors the larger political and social conversations going on in this country. A larger number of Latinos are now on Major League rosters and fans have followed them through the gates at stadiums.
The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum is one of the great sports museums. Its place in the game is recognizable beyond the playing field; when you say "Cooperstown" people immediately associate it with baseball even though many can't find it on a map of New York.
In the last three years, the Hall inducted Pedro Martinez and Ivan Rodriguez and, this year, will welcome another, Vladimir Guerrero. Future years could see Mariano Rivera and Edgar Martinez voted in. All are Latino, hailing from the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and Panama.
When Martinez was inducted in 2015, 30,000 fans showed up from the Dominican Republic. This influx of largely Latino fans convinced the leadership at the Hall of Fame that they needed to have a larger voice in the cultural conversation. They needed to address both the historical impact of Latino players and the current players influencing the major and minor league rosters today.
But how do you do that within a hard-to-reach town of less than 2,000 residents?
La Vida Baseball: New stories for a growing audience
The pre-2017 sports media landscape didn't include a foundational property that celebrated culture through the lens of baseball for English-first Latinos in the United States (and abroad). So in partnership with TeamWorks Media, the Hall of Fame created the digital media brand La Vida Baseball.
The Hall of Fame didn't just join an existing conversation – they created their own. Knowing MLB, ESPN and others have game highlights covered, La Vida Baseball celebrates the great individuals and moments in the game. It's a lifestyle brand that covers culture, religion, family, food and the journey of players to the Major Leagues. Through La Vida Baseball, the Hall of Fame has been able to create a place for Latinos to share their stories, their way.
The results? Over the first year, La Vida Baseball has engaged an average audience of more than 10 million per month across new, stand-alone social channels and a robust website.
Every museum as a story to tell. There is an audience – beyond the walls of your physical museum – for your institution to engage larger audiences around your subject matter expertise and join the current conversation.
TeamWorks Media is proud to be the Official Conference Storyteller for AMM 2018. Please drop by their booth (#404) to share your stories. You also have the opportunity to earn your official "STORYTELLER" t-shirt through a 10-minute "lightening" consult with members of the TeamWorks staff.

Travel Industry Launches Campaign Touting Health Perks
1/30/2013 JW
The U.S. Travel Association, the industry's main lobbying group, is planning a multimillion-dollar campaign called "Travel Effect," with the goal of undertaking and promoting research that shows the benefits of traveling to people's health, relationships and communities, as well as to the economy.
The project hopes to find the kind of science-supports-desire research that has been a home run for other industries, such as the wine business.
"The first thing you think of when you think of red wine is, 'Oh, it's good for me,'" said Cathy Keefe, a U.S. Travel spokeswoman.
Travel, like wine, is a fun activity with supposed health benefits, Keefe said, and that's what the industry would like people to remember when considering a vacation..
"One of the ideas behind the campaign is to get consumers to think differently about travel," she said.
During the nationwide, multiyear effort, U.S. Travel intends to seek partners, such as AARP and academic institutions, to conduct research on various effects of travel. The success of the campaign may hinge on what sort of findings -- especially surprising ones -- the research generates.
"You don't need to persuade me that I need a vacation," said Peter Yesawich, vice chairman of MMGY Global, a Kansas City, Mo.-based travel-marketing firm. "They'd have to pick the right metrics; they have to pick the right behaviors."
For instance, telling people about his firm's research showing that a third of all leisure travelers say they have more romance while on vacation might clinch the deal, he said.

Hotel Savoy on Madeira Part of Interval International
The Hotel Savoy on the Portuguese island of Madeira is affiliated with Interval International, a leading global provider of vacation services and an operating business of Interval Leisure Group.
Upon completion in 2014, the Hotel Savoy will include 246 timeshare apartments, ushering in the second chapter of the vacation ownership product for Siet Savoi SA, the developer of the successful Royal Savoy affiliated in 2002.
"We're very happy to be able to offer more exchange options to Interval members who want to visit this magnificent island, known for its stunning scenery and spring-like temperatures," said Darren Ettridge, Interval's senior vice president of resort sales and business development for Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Asia.

All of the Hotel Savoy timeshare apartments will be air-conditioned, offer Internet access, and have ocean-facing balconies or terraces. One-bedroom apartments will have separate lounge and dining areas, a full kitchen and master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. The two- and three-bedroom lock-off apartments will be ideally suited to holidays with friends or family sleeping up to six and eight guests respectively. Studio units will have a kitchenette and a spacious lounge area.
Hotel Savoy guests also will have access to a full-service spa with sauna; fitness center heated indoor, outdoor, and children's swimming pools; whirlpool; tennis court; and restaurants and bars on the grounds of the resort. Other amenities will include 24-hour reception service, room service, and underground parking.

Closer to the coast of North Africa than Europe, the volcanic island of Madeira is just 35 miles long by 13 miles wide, studded with dramatic ravines and rocky headlands. Along the roadways that wind their way through sleepy hamlets and larger villages, the man-made watercourse "levadas" appear to be ribbons of water meandering through the countryside sparkling in the bright sunlight that bathes the area.
The island that many call "the floating garden of the Atlantic" is a 90-minute flight from Lisbon and the Hotel Savoy is 15 minutes from Madeira's Funchal International Airport and a five minute walk to the historical center of Funchal.

Consumer Reports looks at the use of Pesticides on Produce to Help Consumers Reduce Exposure
Risk Guide for 48 Fruits and Vegetables from 14 Countries; Choosing Organic Always the Safest Choice but in Many Cases Conventional Can Be As Low Risk
Yonkers, NY – Fresh produce is an important part of a healthy diet. A new study by Consumer Reports looks at the risks of pesticide residues for 48 fruits and vegetables from around the globe to come up with guidelines to help consumers reduce their exposure to these toxic chemicals.
An accompanying 40-page report, "Pesticide Use in Produce," from Consumer Reports' Food Safety and Sustainability Center provides a closer look at the consequences of pesticide use for those who produce food, wildlife, and the environment.
Related to the study are results from two recent surveys each of more than 1,000 people by Consumer Reports National Research Center. In the survey conducted in April 2014, 89 percent of Americans noted that protecting the environment from chemicals such as pesticides is critical when purchasing food.
In a related survey from November 2014, 85 percent of Americans said they are concerned about pesticides exposure in food; and a third of respondents to this same survey believe there is a legal limit on the number of different pesticides in food.
But there isn't a legal limit on the number of different pesticides allowed on food. Consumer Reports analyzed data from United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and found that a third of the produce the agency tested had residues from two or more pesticides.
And while for the most part these levels fell within the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) tolerance levels, these tolerance levels are calculated for individual pesticides. The effects of these pesticide combinations are untested and unknown notes Consumer Reports. The report by the Food Safety and Sustainability Center discusses the health effects from the use of pesticides that have been documented in farmworkers.
"Eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is important to a healthy diet," said Dr. Urvashi Rangan, Ph.D. Executive Director of Consumer Reports' Food Safety and Sustainability Center. "Choosing organic produce is always the best option and reducing pesticide use is critical to healthier produce production. For those who can't always afford organic, when it comes to reducing your pesticide exposure we have specific recommendations for conventional options that are just as low risk as organic."
Consumer Reports' Findings
To help consumers make better choices when shopping for produce, Consumer Reports has developed a guide based on its analysis of 12 years of data from the USDA's Pesticide Data Program that shows the relative risk of pesticide exposure from eating 48 conventional fruits and vegetables from 14 different countries.
Consumer Reports placed each produce-country combination into one of five risk categories – from very low to very high. The risk assessment included the number of pesticide residues on each food, the frequency with which they were found, and the toxicity of the pesticides.
Consumer Reports analysis is based on the risk to a 3 ½-year-old child estimated to weigh 35.2 pounds because children are especially vulnerable to the dietary risks from pesticides. Adults can use this relative risk information to make informed comparisons among produce-country combinations.
Consumer Reports analysis showed that, universally, organic produce falls into the low- or very low-risk categories when it comes to pesticide exposure, so consumers should choose organic fruits and vegetables when possible. If organic produce is too pricey or not available, there are often low-risk conventional options equivalent to organic.
Here are the fruits and vegetables consumers should always choose organic:
Consumer Reports analysis found 23 very low- and low-risk conventional produce items that are okay to buy including: bananas, cherries, oranges, broccoli, lettuce, onions and more. The complete risk guide is available on ConsumerReports.org.
The full article, "Eat the Peach, Not the Pesticide: A Shopper's Guide," is featured in the May 2015 issue of Consumer Reports and at ConsumerReports.org.
The Risks of Pesticides
Much of what is known about the health effects of pesticides comes from studies of farmworkers, who work with these chemicals regularly. Studies have linked long-term pesticide exposure in this group to increased risk of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease; prostate, ovarian, and other cancers; depression; and respiratory problems. Many agricultural chemicals are known or are suspected carcinogens or endocrine disruptors that can block or mimic the action of hormones.
Farmworkers may be at greatest risk from pesticide exposure, but the health risks to children are also significant. Because a child's metabolism is different than an adult's, toxins can remain longer in a child's body, where they can do more damage.
Pesticide exposure can affect children's development at many stages, starting in the womb. And their risk is concentrated because they eat more food relative to their body weight than adults. Even small amounts of pesticides may alter a child's brain chemistry during critical stages of development.
Consumer Reports notes that while the risks of pesticides are real, the health benefits of fruits and vegetables are, too. When possible, it's best to choose organic or low-risk conventional produce. However, eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables – ideally five or more servings a day – is the primary goal, even if it's a type that falls into Consumer Reports' very high-risk category.

Guys, no jokes, things are happening in the DM.
Should we just say that Tani and Laolu's love story started in the DM? Laolu stumbled upon her page, sent a direct message Tani totally ignored. But then somehow they managed to find each other and grew into loving each other and deciding to spend forever together. We are itching to tell the full story but then Tani and Laolu can tell us better, how it all began.
Keep scrolling to read their love story and you want more to read, just click here.
He slid into my DM which I ignored. A few months later someone in my church mentioned that a certain "brother" was interested in me. Apparently, he had been stalking me on social media and found out I was a member of my church. Luckily for him, he had a friend who connected him to a friend of a friend of a friend who connected him to my cousin!
One day, I got a phone call from a random person introducing himself and telling me how he wanted to be my friend and I somehow figured that this must be the "brother". I was polite, made up my mind to "friend zone" him, laughed him off and moved on with my life. One year later we arranged to meet during my trip to the US. The rest, as they say, is history!
As an "omoboy" looking for the bone of my bone (BOMB), I was seriously searching for a gorgeous queen I could grow with. One day, on IG I stumbled on her profile and just knew she was the one. I was hooked! Now the dilemma was how to close in on this correct parole. So I talked to a friend who knew someone who knew someone who knew someone who attended her church! (yes, you read right – Ponzi pyramid tinz! lol).
To cut the long story short, I got her number and we connected. Fast-forward to a year later, I asked her out in Vegas during an elaborately planned dinner and she said she'll pray about it (Ela of the century). After all the praying, wooing and toasting, we are here today! Contact me for more details.


The popular aftermarket Android firmware is available for the OnePlus 5T, making it possible for power users and professionals to get the most out of their phones.
OnePlus is typically regarded as one of the more responsive Android OEMs when it comes to providing security and software updates for phones, though some power users and professionals prefer the community-supported LineageOS distribution. The OnePlus 5T has official support for Android 9.0 Pie, though is also supported by LineageOS 16, giving users a choice between Android distributions. LineageOS also supports older devices from OnePlus and other Android device manufacturers for which official support has ended. Presently, the OnePlus 5T is the newest OnePlus device supported by LineageOS.
Getting started with LineageOS takes relatively more technical skill than simply installing an app, though can be performed in under an hour for a first-time user, provided instructions are followed to the letter, and necessary files are downloaded before beginning. Additionally, the following instructions are only for the OnePlus 5T (A5010). While the same basic principles of installation are applicable in broad strokes across other phones and manufacturers, each phone is fundamentally a unique device, and instructions written explicitly for your phone are necessary to install LineageOS or any other custom Android distribution.
Warning: Installing a custom Android distribution is likely to void your warranty.
Create a backup of the data on your phone before continuing.
You'll need the Android Debug Bridge (adb) installed on your computer. Instructions for installation are available here. For Linux users, it is easier to simply install android-tools through your package manager. You'll also need this custom TWRP and LineageOS build image for the OnePlus 5T (dumpling).
Optionally, download the latest GApps (Google Applications) package from OpenGApps.org. Select "ARM64" as the platform, and "9.0" as the Android version. The "stock" variant is recommended.
Before installing LineageOS, ensure that the phone has been booted at least once, and is on the most recent official update before continuing. Ensure that all device PINs and fingerprints have been removed prior to starting.
Next, enable USB debugging. In the "Settings" app, scroll to the bottom and tap "About phone," and then tap on "Build Number" seven times. Press back, tap "System," scroll down, and tap "Developer options." Scroll down, and tap "USB debugging." Tap "OK." Scroll up, and tap "OEM unlocking." Tap Enable.
Note: Linux users should run commands in this guide as root. Prepending "sudo" to these instructions is sufficient.

Crossrail aims to relieve congestion and support the development of London by providing new rail lines from east to west and north to south. Crossrail will connect 40 stations, including Brentwood and Shenfield in the east to Heathrow airport and Reading in the west. Once the entire service is fully opened it will be renamed the Elizabeth Line and form part of the Transport for London network.
Using the service will make travelling in the region easier and quicker, and help to reduce crowding on London's transport network. It is hoped the line will create a 'golden corridor' providing a huge boost to the economies on the route, with thousands of jobs and homes for local people.
The Council aims to maximise the long term benefits to the Borough's residents.
There will be no TfL Rail service on Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 March and on Friday 30 March, Saturday 31 March, Sunday 1 April and Monday 2 April (Easter weekend) between Liverpool Street and Shenfield.
Replacement buses will operate between Stratford and Romford, and between Newbury Park and Shenfield via Chadwell Health. Customers are advised to use the Central line connections between Liverpool Street, Stratford and Newbury Park.
The new timetable for services between Shenfield and Liverpool Street will be introduced from Sunday 20 May 2018. There are no changes to trains in the morning or the evening peak, however due to Network Rail engineering works taking place on the route, there will be changes to services from 9pm between Monday to Thursday. Some trains will terminate/start from Gidea Park instead of Shenfield - please check before you travel.
Crossrail are progressing works to extend the platforms and upgrade the customer information systems.
In order to achieve a safe working environment and minimise disruption to the operation of the railway, certain work must take place at night or during weekends. Mobile screens/ barriers or enclosures will be placed around the breaking equipment and other noisy hand-held tools, where practical to do so.
Over the August Bank Holiday weekend, there will be works at various hours including nights between 1am Sunday 27 August and 4am Tuesday 29 August. The work will be to extend the platform at the eastern end of the station. The expected impact may include noise from road rail vehicles, noise from power tools and breaking equipment and increased lighting during the work at night.
Tickets will be accepted on the Central Line from Newbury Park to/from London Liverpool Street. Greater Anglia customers are being advised to use the rail replacement service which will run between Ingatestone / Billericay / and Newbury Park (London Underground station).
Works to complete platforms extensions and install Customer Information Systems at Brentwood station will continue until late 2017. Works are being undertaken during the day wherever possible, however for reasons of safety, some weekend and night working is necessary.
Transport for London (TfL) recently announced that the first of their new trains have been introduced into service on the TfL Rail route between London Liverpool Street and Shenfield. These are the new trains that will serve the Elizabeth line when the new central London stations open next December (as well as new tunnels).
Initially, the train will operate one return trip a day in the off-peak between Liverpool Street and Shenfield. Trains will also continue to be seen on the line as they are used for driver training and also further testing along the route. Further trains will be gradually introduced over the next few months, with eleven in service on the route by the autumn.
Further works have recently been completed by Network Rail which including a newly built platform at Shenfield station, three new sidings to accommodate the new trains and the remodelling of a rail junction, improving reliability and increasing capacity for all services.
TfL has also recently completed ticket hall refurbishments at a number of stations including Brentwood station.
Brentwood Borough Council made changes to car parks in Shenfield from 1 April 2015 in a bid to minimise disruption to local businesses and shoppers during Crossrail construction.
Crossrail started work at Shenfield Station in 2015 and used a small part of the car park in Friars Avenue in the early stages. As work progresses Crossrail require more of the car park, which is expected to continue until May 2017.
As a way of helping people to continue to visit shops and businesses in Shenfield, the Council made changes to parking in both Friars Avenue and Hunter Avenue car parks. Both car parks provide shoppers parking, with a maximum stay of two hours and no return within four hours. To further encourage people to continue to use the local businesses the Council agreed to make parking free throughout the construction work.
All on-street parking will remain the same but this may be reviewed at a later date if appropriate.
Crossrail is the new high frequency, convenient and accessible railway for London and the South East.
From 2018 the service will be renamed as the Elizabeth Line and enable travel from Shenfield and Abbey Wood in the east via new tunnels under central London to Heathrow and Reading in the west. It will link Heathrow Airport, the West End, the City of London, Canary Wharf, the Royal Docks and Stratford. There will be 40 Crossrail stations including 10 new stations at Paddington, Bond Street, Tottenham Court Road, Farringdon, Liverpool Street, Whitechapel, Canary Wharf, Custom House, Woolwich and Abbey Wood.
Incarnations of the Crossrail scheme have a long history. Since realising the important role of railways in the London and Regents Canal & Dock Railway plans of the 1880s, through to the post-war Abercrombie Plan and the 1974 London Rail Study, the idea to provide a railway link across London remained an idea. Following the 1989 Central London Rail Study, which again raised the concept of a cross-London rail link, Government interest increased and discussion about options continued into the 1990s.
In July 2000 the Government published a ten year transport plan, which asserted that an east-west rail link should go ahead. The Mayor of London's Transport Strategy also prioritised the relief of overcrowding on London Underground. Following several studies and analysis of route options the Crossrail Hybrid Bill was presented to Parliament between February and July 2005, establishing the principle of the scheme. After a long process of scrutiny the Bill finally received Royal Assent in July 2008 with some changes. This gave Crossrail Ltd the authority to build the railway and a confirmed route.
Various construction work began in May 2009 as Europe's largest construction project. Tunnelling work began in May 2012 and is now complete.
Crossrail Limited is the company charged with delivering Crossrail. Formerly known as Cross London Rail Links (CLRL), it was created in 2001 to promote and develop new lines that meet the needs of the people and businesses throughout the South East, and to ensure that London continues in its role as Europe's leading financial and business centre.
Established as a 50/50 joint venture company between Transport for London and the Department for Transport, Crossrail Limited became a wholly owned subsidiary of TfL on 5 December 2008.
How will Crossrail affect Brentwood Borough?
Crossrail will serve Brentwood and Shenfield stations. These are existing stations on the national rail network which will be upgraded to integrate Crossrail services. Work will also be undertaken to improve the sidings at Shenfield in preparation for where the service will terminate as well as new Crossrail trains to replace the existing metro service.
Brentwood Station: Works include platform extensions to provide for longer trains, new signage, help points, customer information screens and CCTV.
Shenfield Station: An additional bay platform (6) will be provided for Crossrail trains and new cycle racks installed. There will also be new signage, help points, customer information screens and CCTV.
Crossrail services will be introduced in phases from May 2017 until December 2019. The project will be fully completed and renamed the Elizabeth Line once services start through the central tunnel in December 2019.
Further information on works planned at Brentwood and Shenfield stations can be found on the Crossrail website.
Great Eastern OLE Renewals Project: Renewing electrification equipment from Liverpool Street to Shenfield over the period up to 2017.
Anglia Route Track Renewals: Ongoing between Liverpool Street and Norwich.
What permission is required from the Council?
The Crossrail Act 2008 grants planning permission for the project. The overall impacts of the project have been assessed in the Crossrail Environmental Statement.
The role of the local planning authority is restricted to Schedule 7 of the Crossrail Act which covers approvals for (1) plans and specifications for permanent works, and (2) temporary construction arrangements. The types of consideration for plans and specifications include the design of stations and ticket halls, noise barriers, external lighting, and car parking. For construction works it includes arrangements for road transport, soil handling, storage, screening, lighting dust suppression and mud on highways. The starting point for construction works is the Environmental Minimum Requirements and construction code. This sets the standards of required works and the authority will consider the suitability of this in the context of the local environment.
Crossrail produce a series of newsletters and bulletins to help communicate construction progress across the project. Route-wide news is reported in the Crossrail Bulletin. Central section news stories are reported in station newsletters.
For more information please visit the Crossrail Website.
Crossrail operates a 24-hour public helpdesk for any enquiries about the project.

People near Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson may notice more noise and air traffic in the skies over the next few days.
JBER's airmen are taking part in Polar Force, a two-week exercise that goes through Friday, April 5.
Lt. Col. John Krellner, the 3rd Operations Group deputy commander, says Polar Force tests the base's mission readiness and strengthens the airmen's skills.
"What the exercise does for us is it gives us the opportunity to demonstrate our ability to pack up our squadrons, our Airmen and our aircraft and deploy to another location to deliver that combat air power where it's needed," Krellner wrote in a news release Tuesday.
Krellner also added that people may notice more activity in and around the base due to the exercise.

Flint Journal to publish 3 days a week
Updated Apr 04, 2019; Posted Mar 23, 2009
By Ron Fonger | rfonger1@mlive.com

FLINT, Michigan -- The Flint Journal will stop publishing a daily newspaper in June and instead print only Thursday, Friday and Sunday editions, employees were told today.
The production cuts were announced along with layoffs and reduced wages and benefits for those who remain. Publisher David C. Sharp said the changes were brought on by deep reductions in classified, real estate and automobile advertising.
Sharp would not discuss the finances of the privately held company that owns The Journal, the Newhouse Family's Advance Publications.
But he said The Journal has been losing money and would have been forced to close without the reductions.
Readers of the newspaper can expect more local news on days The Journal is published and "greater Web offerings throughout the week," Sharp said.
"I feel like there is a real opportunity about the future," he said. "The strategy we're putting in place will help us be around for a long, long time."
Newspaper employees started to get word of the massive changes in meetings this morning as changes were also being announced at other Advance newspapers.
The Journal will no longer be printed in Flint but in Bangor Township, where some production functions will be combined with The Saginaw News and The Bay City Times.
Those papers also announced Monday that they would cut print publication to three days a week, and Sharp said about 35 percent of employees at the three papers were being laid off.
The Ann Arbor News, also owned by Advance, announced Monday it will publish its last edition in July and launch a new Web-based media company called AnnArbor.com LLC later this year.
Timothy Boudreau, associate professor of journalism at Central Michigan University, said Monday's cuts show a deepening economic collapse at many newspapers.
"Is there a future in journalism? I hope so," Boudreau said. "I don't want to be pessimistic ... but I don't think the industry has figured out what it's going to do."
Boudreau said newspaper companies could be harming themselves by cutting home delivery to readers, some of whom have been subscribers for decades.
But Sharp said circulation is not the problem for The Journal as much as lost advertising. The revenue from subscriptions alone cannot support the newspaper's expenses.
"The lack of consumer confidence has people not buying," Sharp said, and businesses consider advertising a controllable cost that they can quickly stop when buying slows."Our combined audience (print and online) has never been stronger," Sharp said. "We are going to produce better products that people will be delighted to receive."


Q: Is heavy lifting OK when trying to conceive (TTC) and during pregnancy?
A: Heavy lifting is unlikely to lead to miscarriages, but it's also unlikely to be beneficial to the pregnancy, and you cannot be sure that it is completely safe. The only way to be 100% safe is to not do any heavy lifting.
