For the Baseball Fan Who Has Everything: Their Own Stadium

(NewsUSA) – Even as baseball has put a "pause" on its season, doesn’t mean that you can’t still support the person in your life that "lives for love of the game."Now there is a gift for the baseball fan who has everything – his or her own stadium. A collection of exquisite models of Major League Baseball stadiums lets fans bring their favorite ballparks home.Searching for the right gift for Father’s Day, birthday, or any special occasion can be a challenge, but a one-of-a-kind rendition of a favorite stadium will be showstopper for an art enthusiast, sports fan, or collector of sports memorabilia.After all, nothing captures the spirit of a sports team like the stadium where the action happens and the memories are made. Many sports stadiums, both old and new, are works of architectural elegance, and the replicas from Westbrook Sports Classics let fans appreciate these iconic structures from a new perspective.The stadium reproductions measure approximately 7-by-7 inches, weigh approximately 10-12 pounds, and come with a protective acrylic case.The models are designed and created by John Kimball Westbrook, an award-winning artist whose background includes the study of architecture as well as commercial art. Mr. Westbrook also spent time in Washington, DC, on a scholarship to study with Italian stone carvers during the completion of the National Cathedral, where he developed his passion for sculpture."Over the past 30 years I have worked with different fine art medium, including carving marble, granite, various semi-precious stones, bronze, wood, ivory, silversmithing, drawing and painting," Mr. Westbrook explains on his website.The limited-edition ballparks are cast in a bronze composite with a marble base, and feature tiny crystals that refract light to give the appearance of a stadium at night.The Westbrook Sports collection to date features 17 Major League Baseball stadiums, historic and current, including Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox; the former home of the San Francisco Giants, Candlestick Park; the Chicago Cubs’ Wrigley Field; and both old and new versions of Yankee Stadium. All Major League Baseball trademarks are copyrights used with the permission of Major League Baseball, and Mr. Westbrook plans to expand the collection to National Football League stadiums and British football (soccer) stadiums as well.For more information and photos of the stadium models, visit westbrooksportsclassics.com.

Surprisingly, Older Americans Are Coping Best During the Pandemic

( NewsUSA ) – Older Americans have actually been coping far better than younger ones during the coronavirus pandemic, according to new research.The Edward Jones and Age Wave Study goes where few have ventured before in focusing exclusively on how different generations have held up emotionally and financially in the months since all the lockdowns began. And some of its findings are at least as startling as how quickly even 70-year-olds came to love Zoom."COVID-19’s impact forever changed the reality of many Americans, yet we’ve observed a resilience among U.S. retirees in contrast to younger generations," said Ken Dychtwald, Ph.D., the founder and CEO of Age Wave, a leading research think tank on aging, retirement and longevity issues.While acknowledging upfront that the virus itself disproportionally struck aging adults, the five-generational sampling of 9,000 people age 18 and over revealed more than a few surprises. Among them:* While 37 percent of Gen Zers, 27 percent o...

Audiobook Service Helps Blind Vets Recover Independence

In December 1967, a young soldier lay in a hospital bed after sustaining severe eye injuries from a land mine in Vietnam. Tom Miller, now executive director of the Blinded Veterans Association (BVA) in Washington, D.C., was blind, and his mind raced over all of the things he’d never be able to enjoy again. “I’ve spent the past 44-plus years erasing that list, or finding new things I can do.” Miller says he owes many thanks to the talking-book program of the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped (NLS), part of the Library of Congress. “The program is a godsend,” he says. Veterans—and any U.S. resident or citizen living abroad—are eligible to become NLS readers if they are blind, have low vision or have an illness or disability that prevents them from handling a book or printed material. According to a 2011 report by the National Alliance for Eye and Vision Research, 16 percent of the wounded soldiers evacuated from Iraq and Afghanistan battle zones have suf...

Have working batteries in your smoke alarms? Done. Has your oil been freshly changed in your car? Done. Is there a new water filter for your refrigerator? Done. But when it comes to regularly checking your tires? Like most people, there may be some room for improvement. As fall travel and winter weather loom, taking a moment to check your car tires can make a difference in keeping you safe on the road. This year, Cooper Tires is encouraging drivers to mark Labor Day weekend on their calendar (and the first of every month) as a tire check safety moment, to make a habit of checking tires, especially as seasons change. “Just as we regularly take a moment to check our smoke detector batteries when we change our clocks in the fall and spring, we need to designate a moment to check tire safety as well,” says Jessica Egerton, Director of Brand Development at Cooper Tire & Rubber Company. Ensuring the overall condition of your tires is easy and important for your safety on the r...
