Professional baseball is full of arcane team names. The Los Angeles Dodgers, for instance, owe their nickname to the trolley tracks that honeycombed Brooklyn in the early 1880s. (Residents were "trolley dodgers.") From the Negro Leagues, there were the Pittsburgh Crawfords (sponsored early by the Crawford Bath House and Recreation Center); from the minors, the Tucson Waddies (slang for cowboy) and, later, the Montgomery Biscuits (for the would-be concessions staple); from overseas, the Adelaide, Australia, Bite (a shark reference but also a pun for bight) and the Bussum, Netherlands, Mr. Cocker HCAW (the sponsoring restaurant chain, followed by the acronym for the official team name, Honkbalclub Allan Weerbaar). This comprehensive reference book explains the nicknames of thousands of major and minor league franchises, Negro League and early independent black clubs, and international teams--from 1869 through 2011.
Successful audio-visual presentations are the result of careful management by--as well as creative collaboration between--the client and the professional communications firm. Because of their high visibility within the corporation, presentations risk falling prey to script by committee unless there is a clear plan at hand for managing the project. Executives who find themselves responsible for a presentation need to be fully aware of what audio-visual can and cannot do--and how to go about getting it done right. In this how-to guide for corporate executives, author Richard Worth covers every step of the process in sequence, from determining objectives to preparing for production and post-production. While the emphasis is on working with an audio-visual professional, Worth also includes do-it-yourself tips for readers who want to keep the project in-house.Selecting slides, video, film or multimedia is one of the first choices to make. This decision, like others that follow, should be based on a determination of purpose, audience and message. Worth provides easy-to-follow worksheets to help get the planning process going. Readers looking for budget guidelines will learn how much money they will need to invest to get the presentations they want. And, to help readers select the communications professional they will be working with, Worth offers down-to-earth advice based on his years of practical experience. In non-technical language, he critiques and analyzes samples of script proposals and treatments, providing valuable insight into the creative process. Any executive or manager responsible for sales, training, public relations, fund-raising, employee relations, or recruitment will find this a valuable resource for planning and implementing effective presentations.

S. Naval War College"This one book contains a perfect distillation of facts, theory and application on almost any ship that saw use in World War II." -Wargamer.com"Fleets of World War II probably represents the best single-volume comprehensive treatment of World War II warships available today." -William J.

A unique volume on a neglected area of military history. At the revolution, the Tsar’s navy, such as it was, was obsolete and scattered, much of it never to return home. From a standing start a huge fleet was built by the Bolsheviks, who were obliged to deal with the West: engines from Italy, warship plans and gun turrets from Germany (in exchange for 3.5 million tons of food and material as late as February 1940). Stalin himself took a deadly, keen interest, insisting for example that at the last moment the boilers on a new Soviet destroyer class were repositioned. It was done! With more than 200 photographs, most previously unpublished, the pictorial content alone of Raising the Red Banner is of immense interest to naval enthusiasts and students of the Second World War.
