Exclusive Babe Ruth Video Highlights New York Sports Tours Return With Virtual Tour June 25

For two years, New York Sports Tours has brought New York sports history to life for guests through one-of-a-kind luxury sports tour experiences. And while fans can’t board the minibus and zip around the city in person, they can participate worldwide in the unique New York Sports Tours Virtual Tour Experience on Thursday, June 25, beginning at 6 p.m. ET.

 

The special event will feature a celebration of the 100th anniversary of Babe Ruth’s initial season with the Yankees and exclusive content from Babe Ruth Day on April 27, 1947. The only known film version of Ruth’s speech at the ceremony—which includes his immortal line, “The only real game I think in the world, baseball”—will be part of the New York Sports Tours Virtual Tour Experience.

 

Further commemorating the June 25 experience is special guest Larry Cutler, who was a teenaged Bronx baseball standout when he was selected to introduce Ruth at the Babe Ruth Day event in front of a packed Yankee Stadium crowd. Cutler, now living in Colorado, will discuss his thoughts from that day, tell his Yankees story publicly for the first time, and field questions. In addition, an exclusive film reel of Cutler’s full Babe Ruth Day speech will be presented, and seen by Cutler for the first time.

 

While the COVID-19 quarantine has prevented us from running the New York Sports Tours outings in person, we are excited to present a virtual outing with the types of original stories, exclusive videos and exhaustive research that are our hallmarks,” said Jordan Sprechman, founder of New York Sports Tours. “Larry Cutler’s story of his unique connection to Babe Ruth adds to the one-of-a-kind nature of our tour experiences, and is a great way to help celebrate the centennial of the Big Bam’s first year in pinstripes.”

 

Tickets for the one-hour video conference session are $19.20 each, and available in limited number at newyorksports.tours/. The experience is co-hosted by Cisco Webex Events.

Executive Producer Veronica Vitale Meets Famous French Fashion Designer Philippe Vallés

The Worldwide Message of Love by Music Executive Veronica Vitale and French Fashion Designer Philippe Vallés.

Saint-Estève, France | June 16th, 2020 -- A true love story: founded in 2017 by Fashion designer Louis-Philippe Vallès, la Vague d'Amour is a brand created in order to carry a universal message of true love around the world. Mr.Vallés is the mind behind the famous "wave-shaped bracelet" a message of universal love: to connect, to come together in order to transmit, give and share all together. Wavy and colorful, these bracelets represent the ups and downs of life. Symbolically, while wearing them, you can make 3 wishes, one for yourself, one for the person who receives it as gift and another for the planet. - "By founding the Wave of Love, I wanted to create a real surge of generosity: it materializes in bracelets in the form of waves and pretty t-shirts which help to finance associations and transmit a message of love" - said Louis-Philippe.

The Founder of the "Wave of Love" meets Artist and Executive Producer Dr. Veronica Vitale, one fine day on Instagram. Veronica Vitale has recently founded the Movement "Artist United - heart like never before" with her husband American Film Director Patrick Hamilton as relief platform in response to COVID-19 for all artists around the world to come together as one for hope and universal brotherhood during Humanitarian Crises and Hardships. Veronica's dream chapter about humanity has started back in 2013, as she worked with twice nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize Dr. Ervin Laszlo in the field of Quantum Physics and Global Macro Shift. Veronica Vitale holds three university degrees and a Ph.d in evolutionary systems scientist and is known in her industry as a catalyst for change.

Veronica Vitale brought together thousand people in a matter of days, and recently released a song ("Hymn To Humanity" Choir Edition) performed by over 250 voices from Africa, to China, Tanzania, Croatia, Russia, Pakistan, Congo, from Afghanistan, to Australia and Italia, to the Chief Shuar Amazon of Ecuador, and sung in almost every main spoken language in the world. The Song Veronica Vitale composed is to be considered a successful Anthem to Earth and Humakind. One of a kind.

The love project "Vallés - Vitale" aims to support this young movement by producing a special edition t-shirt that links the two brands "La Vague d'Amour" and "Artist United" together as one. Every t-shirt will carry the quote "More Love in the World" translated in every native language and shipped to every Artist who sung the Hymn to Humanity composed by Veronica Vitale. The special edition t-shirt will travel to every country and it is wholeheartedly donated by Mr. Louis-Philippe Vallés.

"I thought to involve Mr. Vallés in this project because he is a sensitive soul like myself. I would like to hire his company in the future to produce a specific fashion line for my own brand and upcoming album as soon as the consequences Covid-19 has caused to the independent industries" - says Veronica.

As Matter of fact, Executive Producer Veronica Vitale and French Fashion Designer Louis-Philipps Vallés are to be considered two modern Peace Builders in their own industry. "A burst of light over the dusk above the human pain" as the Hymn to Humanity's lyrics says.

N R Doshi and Partners is a Dubai based firm specialized in providing auditing, accounting, VAT, and AML consulting services. The firm has thirty-four years of journey and served many clients in the UAE. 

In 2001, the UAE government started taking major steps against money laundering and terrorist funding. The two laws:Law No 4/2002 (the Anti Money Laundering law), and Law No. 1/2004 (the counterterrorism law) led the foundation for AML regulations in the UAE. Since the regulations are new, many businesses are finding it difficult to cope up with the requirements of the Law. To help companies to comply with the AML regulations, N R Doshi and Partners has introduced AML Consulting Service. 

“We not only provide our clients with AML compliance, but we also provide insights into what more can be done to follow the world-class practices. All the required data security measures are taken into consideration whether tasks are performed manually or through AML compliance software programs. It’s not only about responsibility towards the client. If one looks at the big picture, it is one vital method to prevent money laundering and an effective measure to counter funding that happens to terror groups and activities. We provide our AML services taking this as a consideration.” Says Rahul Doshi, the managing partner at N R Doshi and Partners.

He further explains, “You can choose not to outsource. It is up to the businesses. We are here to help businesses how they want it. If they want to keep complete control over the compliance check, we can set up an in-house compliance department, implement AML best practices, and give extensive AML training to employees. We are open for discussion and ready to deliver our service how they want it.”

NRD provides AML Agent service where a client can have their internal team working with them. They also create manuals for the client companies as per their business sector.
