Coronavirus Conversations Around The Globe: Spain and Italy
We envision a world in which adults live the second half of life as the best half.
Live healthy. Be fulfilled.
We are a whole life movement sharing worldwide innovations and advancement in holistic wellness and lifestyle for adults in midlife and beyond.
On a wintery January afternoon in 2001, Risa was sitting next to her mother at the kitchen table. During their conversation, Mom suffered a debilitating stroke, one that left her with right side paresis. Mom had been a healthy, very active 65-year old restaurant owner who lived for family and others. She walked three miles every morning, worked late into the night, and squeezed a yoga class in whenever she could. But she also suffered from hypertension.
Mom was a completely independent woman who took care of everyone else. Now she had to allow herself to be taken care of. Mom's first words in the ICU were "pay mortgage." At that moment Risa realized how unprepared she was. Her family had no idea what bills needed to be paid, or how she had paid them. They didn't have access to her bank account or know if she had a will. What was a health care proxy and did Mom have one? With the help of family, Risa learned a great deal about elder care while struggling to adapt to a new normal.
Over the years, Risa and her family gained expertise in caregiving, medical equipment, legal issues and government programs. She decided to share this knowledge to help the millions of people like Mom preserve their dignity in the face of debilitating health challenges. Thus, Modern Aging was born.
On a fall October day in San Diego, Risa met Susan at an entrepreneurial business conference. They discovered that they shared a vision to build a diverse global community of adults growing older together with joy, health, prosperity and fulfillment. From this, Modern Aging was reborn into a lifestyle company and movement for adults in midlife wishing to optimize their health and lifestyle in innovative and holistic ways.
Risa and Susan researched and spoke with experts with proven scientific and time-tested traditional approaches. They reject the outdated social stereotypes around aging. In fact, research has proven that midlife is one of the happiest times in life for a majority of adults. They listen to you – their audience, partners and friends – and create the products, courses, coaching and events you ask for.
They created the Modern Aging TV YouTube channel and other social media to share insights of top experts, their collective knowledge, plus best practices from cultures around the globe. Risa and Susan have created a supportive space for our community to connect, redefine and renew, share stories, swap ideas and let go of what no longer fits us as we grow. Together we heal, make new choices, empower one another, and age on our terms.
Join us and our Modern Aging movement!
Co-CEO and Chief Creative Officer
I have had a colorful life thus far. Each step has led me to this moment right now. In addition to being the Founder and Co-CEO of Modern Aging, I am an integrative nutritional health coach. Though I am the host of the Modern Aging YouTube Channel, I have spent most of my career behind the camera as a producer and director of documentaries and TV (HGTV - House Hunters International, Selling NY, Animal Planet, A&E).
I started my career in banking, then I entered the world of higher education working at NYU as the Associate Director of the Asian/Pacific/American Studies Program and Institute. I then moved on to run a non-profit organization, Asian CineVision and the Asian American International Film Festival. It was during this time that my mother had her stroke. It was a huge wake up call for me and I knew if I wanted to become a full-time filmmaker, it was now or never. So, I chose now. I made several documentary films, lucky enough to travel and interview people from all over the world. The films screened at numerous film festivals and aired on television in over 18 countries.
Throughout this time, I was a part time caregiver to my mother. She developed Parkinsons in 2009 and it became increasingly difficult to care for her. I felt like I needed a PhD to navigate the healthcare system. This proved to be hugely challenging and I often traveled to Japan to look for solutions. I knew their senior population has been exploding in recent years and they were implementing some innovative ways to address the epidemic.
Modern Aging was born out of my frustration knowing that there had to be a better way and that the current system was not sustainable for future generations. I was sure as hell not going to go the same route. I researched and talked to people. I used my skills as a documentary filmmaker to interview people and share what I was learning. Thus, Modern Aging was created.
FUN FACTS ABOUT ME 1. I was born in NYC and I am a Sagittarius (wassup fellow Sag brothers and sisters!) 2. I played the flute. 3. I didn't start to formally learn Japanese until I was 18. 5. I lived in Kyoto, Japan for 2 years. 6. I love azuki (Japanese red bean often used in desserts – so yum!). I don't like natto (fermented soy beans). 7. My parents opened up the first Japanese restaurant on Long Island in 1975 (before it was cool to eat sushi and bring bentos for lunch – thanks Molly Ringwald and The Breakfast Club!). 8. I have traveled to over 40 countries and 80+ cities. 9. I helped cater Julia Robert's 30th birthday party. (Yes, she is as sweet as you think). 10. I married my best friend/college roommate's brother. 11. Friends and I rescued a dog and her pup from Panama on a House Hunters International TV shoot. The mama is mine and the pup was adopted by a friend. 12. My husband and I adopted our 15 year old daughter from Colombia in 2017.
Susan Rosenthal
Co-CEO and Chief Operations Officer
My passion in life is to empower people to know and realize their greatness. This desire has led me to work with individuals and organizations all around the world as a coach, mentor, consultant, executive and business owner. I have coached leaders, led teams, and mentored women. In business, I generated more than $800 million in new revenues from Fortune 500 companies to entrepreneurial startups across 100 countries. Understanding people's desires and creating innovative solutions led me to earning an MBA and pursuing a career first in consumer goods and services, and later in technology. Along the way, I launched the first ever children's toothbrush, in the U.S. and globally, for Colgate-Palmolive and its Corporate Environmental Team. I introduced cranberries to consumers across Europe for Ocean Spray, and also brought mobile data services - text messaging, internet, video and games on cell phones - to the U.S. for ATT Wireless. I also expanded small businesses and professionals banking worldwide and launched online business banking for Citi. In the last twenty years, I've become fascinated by the intersection of technology, health and innovation. Now, as Co-CEO and COO of Modern Aging, I am thrilled to bring these together to enhance the lives of adults during what can be one of the happiest periods of their lives, midlife. The opportunities are endless! RANDOM FACTS ABOUT ME 1. I am a licensed Junior Maine Guide, trained to lead groups into the wilderness in the State of Maine. 2. I enjoy all forms of artistic expression. For fun, I paint, play piano and dance. 3. My spiritual exploration started at 9 years old. It was a lonely journey, but I am grateful for the experience and knowledge gained. 4. At 13 years old, I decided I would see the world and get paid to do it. This led to a career in international business and lots of travel. My passport is always ready! 5. I love dogs and have owned three. I don't understand cats. 6. I was a Unit Production Manager on a feature film that premiered at the New York International Film Festival. 7. I have lived on three continents (North America, Europe and Asia) and worked across 100 countries. 8. To deal with burnout, I became a health and wellness enthusiast. Years later, I hosted a conference on self-healing in NYC after 9/11. 9. I used self-healing techniques when I lost my sight in one eye in 2010. I restored it in 18 months using mindset, nutrition and lifestyle approaches. 10. I believe this is the most exciting time in history to be alive. Imagination and technology are creating unlimited opportunities. I can't wait for the future to unfold!

Rebecca and I have a curious ritual whenever we leave the flat. Unless she's taking (one of) her handbag(s) with her she will proudly announce that she isn't carrying any money or her keys, presumably as a reminder to me that I need to make sure that I am. Of course she always waits until after we've left before saying this.
For my part, usually I say nothing. Sometimes I remark that it might be more helpful if she told me while we were still indoors. This time I was halfway through allowing the door to slam shut when I remembered that I had put my keys and wallet on my desk while changing trousers and had clean forgotten to pick them back up.
Luckily the flat is not entirely secure and has a backdoor. Or more precisely a back window. I was able to raise it high enough for Rebecca to clamber inside and safely retrieve the keys. And all without attracting the attention of the police.
Rebecca and I were on our way along the river bank when I pointed to a patch of vegetation and asked "Do you know what those are?"
"Those are nettles. We call them stinging nettles. If you touch them you will hurt your hand."
She nodded. I carried on walking.
A few seconds later I heard a high pitched squeal from behind me. Sure enough there she was nursing her hand and complaining that she "won't try that again."
Rebecca will want to find a job, even a temp position, rather than sit around at home watching TV while I'm at work. But she won't be able to be paid without a bank account.

South Dakota Drops Bid to Ban Teaching Gender Identity in Schools
South Dakotoa Republican State Sen. Phil Jensen (Photo: Facebook)
Senate Bill 160 would have prevented South Dakota elementary and middle schools from teaching students about gender identity and gender expression. According to the Associated Press, Republican State Sen. Phil Jensen said he decided to remove all language concerning transgender issues and gender identity after realizing "there were issues he hadn't thought of with his original idea."
"It wasn't a hoax," Jensen said. "It wasn't until basically yesterday that I decided that I needed to go a different direction."
A Senate panel ended up killing the reshaped bill, which also dealt with allowing standardized tests to be administered in paper or computerized form.
SB 160 was one of 3 measures that were either scrapped or defeated in South Dakota this week. Senate Bill 202, of which Jensen was also a sponsor, proposed that public restrooms would have to post a sign warning that a person of the opposite sex may be using the facility if transgender people were allowed to use it. In a unanimous vote, the Senate State Affairs Committee deferred the bill to the 41st legislative day, which effectively tables it.
On Monday, HB 1296 was defeated by a vote of 11-1. The bill would have required school boards to develop and publish policies regarding where transgender students will be allowed to use restrooms and locker rooms.
Just last year, a bill was passed in both the South Dakota House and Senate that would have prevented transgender students from using school facilities consistent with their gender identity. The bill was ultimately vetoed by Governor Dennis Daugaard, who had soured on the measure after actually meeting some transgender students.

Hot Times in the City – Sporting it up in Phoenix
By Carla Jean Whitley
You've got the Arizona Cardinals at University of Phoenix Stadium. Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field. The Phoenix Suns are at Talking Stick Resort Arena, along with the three-time championship WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and Indoor Football League's Arizona Rattlers. Head to Gila River Arena for the Arizona Coyotes. The Phoenix Rising FC reside at the team's namesake soccer complex.
Those are just the pro teams. Heck, let's not forget several Super Bowls, the Fiesta Bowl, the Cactus Bowl, the 2016 College Football Playoff National Championship, and the NCAA Final Four. Oh, and the Cactus League, one of Major League Baseball's two spring training leagues, along with the Phoenix International Raceway, major golf events, and marathons.
Phew.
Phoenix is undoubtedly a sports town. But if you're headed in for your first visit, this athletic mecca can be overwhelming. Yes, you could wander to the bar nearest your game of choice (and heck, it's probably worth stopping by). But there's always something special about tailgating or pre-gaming with your fellow fans.
That's where we come in.
We turned to several die-hard Phoenix sports fans for insight into where and how they watch the big games. So buy your ticket, load up the RV, or book your flight. You're headed to the Valley of the Sun, and it's going to be fun.
On the Lawn
Todd Thorstensen knows tailgating; it's practically in his blood. His family has held season tickets for the NFL's Arizona Cardinals since the team arrived in 1988. He was 3.
The team is the nation's oldest continuously run pro football franchise, with a history dating back to 1898 in Chicago.
"I've grown up with the group. They're my brothers, sisters, aunts, and uncles," says Thorstensen, whose tailgating group, Tillman's Troops, is now 90 strong. (Yes, the group is named for the late Corp. Pat Tillman, who played for the Cardinals from 1998-2001 and died in Afghanistan while serving in the U.S. Army.) "It's a big sense of family, getting together and having a good time rooting for our team."
Once upon a time, supporting the Cardinals required a high SPF sunscreen, heat tolerance, and a willingness to be outnumbered on your home turf. The team wasn't great, and the open-air Sun Devil Stadium let in all of Arizona's famous heat. Even so, tossing around a football before those games is among Thorstensen's mosttreasured memories.
"If you saw someone with a Cardinals jersey, then you knew they were a true fan. They weren't that great record-wise back then, but the Cardinals are my team," he says.
Thorstensen won't soon forget the first game in the University of Phoenix Stadium, where the team relocated in 2006. Air conditioning provides a welcome respite from the heat outside.
But there's still plenty of reason to be outdoors. The stadium is surrounded by the 25-acre Sportsman's Park, which includes an eight-acre tailgating area. The Great Lawn hosts the team's drumline and cheerleaders before each game, with tailgater- and recipe-of-the-game contests providing extra crowd involvement. There's space to spread out and play cornhole or throw around a football, just as Thorstensen recalls doing with his dad. "If you have the right gear, you can stay out of the sun and enjoy yourself," he says.
Even if you're a visitor and unlikely to haul gear on your trip, Thorstensen urges you to stop by the Great Lawn to check out costumes, other tailgates and take in the atmosphere. Food trucks line up near the stadium, so you won't go hungry.
Reddit user "mushquog" echoes that sentiment. He too was raised attending games with his father, and sometimes tailgating was a simple affair. "Many times we'd stroll through and simply get invited to join the (often very elaborate) other tailgates going on before kickoff," he says.
Not a football fan? The National Hockey League's Arizona Coyotes play across the street in Gila River Arena. Both teams see fans flood the bars of the Westgate Entertainment District (westgateaz.com), which the stadiums anchor.
Last year, the complex introduced its Touchdown Tailgate parties and encourage fans without tickets to visit its bars and restaurants to watch games. The nearby Desert Diamond casino is also a popular place to unwind after any event, Thorstensen says.
Maybe your game takes place during colder weather (hey, even Phoenix cools off). National Basketball Association's Phoenix Suns hold events at Cold Beer and Cheeseburgers (coldbeers.com) on Seventh Street. The name says it all—it's real and, we think, brilliant—and you'll be in good company with other fans.
Or turn your attention to The Park (thepark.bar), a new downtown entertainment complex. The 11,000-square-foot restaurant is within walking distance of Talking Stick Resort Arena, Chase Field, Comerica Theatre, and the Phoenix Convention Center. It'll take your mind off prepping for a tailgate and let you focus on your team's upcoming victory. Yeah, it's inside, but you'll get a taste of the outdoors without all the sweat, thanks to two trees that canopy the space.
Beneath the trees, you'll find many of the things that make tailgating so fun—self-serve beer, wine and soda (no waiting on your server), a full menu, craft brews, and live entertainment. The Park also highlights a variety of street food, thanks to a rotation of local food trucks (text "menu" to 48421 for a schedule).
Miss the actual outdoors? Well, step out to the patio and game area. You'll also find LED ping pong, shuffleboard, and arcade games while you're there.
Worried about finding space for your party? Make reservations online.
No tickets? Watch the game on the venue's ultra high definition LED wall. You may not be at the game, but it's the next-best thing.
Whichever team draws you to Arizona's capital and whatever the weather, you've got plenty of options for celebration. All you've got to do is pick one.

If you've been paying attention to the news, data breaches might seem like a dime a dozen these days.
In 2018, roughly 5 billion people had their information and sensitive data exposed in criminal hacks, including over 765 million people between April and June that same year. If you had an account with businesses ranging from Marriott and T-Mobile to British Airways or Facebook, there's a chance you could be among the millions of people whose email addresses, passwords, passport number, credit card numbers, and billing address were exposed unlawfully.
Worst of all, industry experts warn things will likely get worse before they get better. After the record losses from breaches over the last decade, it's hard to imagine what else could go wrong – but your records may still be in danger.
For more insight, we surveyed over 1,000 people (including nearly 300 who were victims of a breach) about their reaction to data breaches and how these breaches altered their perceptions of businesses. Read on as we analyze how respondents' digital routines have changed to protect their information and how their trust in corporations has shifted.
Front of Mind
According to the 1,107 people surveyed, 27% acknowledged their information was leaked in at least one of the major data breaches in 2018.
While Marriott may have been victim to one of the biggest corporate hacks in the last decade, the loss of 500 million customers' names, mailing addresses, phone numbers, and passport details may have been overshadowed by another corporate data breach. 2018 turned out to be a very bad year for Facebook. About 70% of people correctly identified the social network platform as a victim of a major data breach in 2018, the same year the Cambridge Analytica scandal broke, followed by further reports of third-party companies being granted sensitive information about Facebook's users without their permission. In September of 2018, Facebook revealed a data breach had also exposed the personal information of 50 million users, including 30 million users whose accounts could be taken over by the use of illegally acquired "access tokens."
Following Facebook, data breaches at Marriott (24%), Under Armour (20%), Panera Bread (17%), and T-Mobile (nearly 16%) were among the most memorable. In 2018, the account number, email, and billing address of roughly 2.3 million T-Mobile customers were exposed in a data breach. However, many people improperly identified data breaches that never occurred. Nearly 30% of respondents claimed they knew of five data breaches in 2018 that never truly took place.
Making a Change
Before we can talk about how to safeguard against data breaches and the loss of sensitive information, it's important to recognize how much access we give away regularly.
While being in control of who has access to our information is "very important" to a majority of Americans, we may be giving it away with a simple click nearly every day. Unfortunately, most people don't have the time to read the terms and conditions associated with every account they make, and there's no avoiding having to share at least some personal information when booking a flight or signing up with a new mobile carrier. Industry experts recommend using unique passwords on all accounts so that one data breach doesn't affect you elsewhere and encrypting certain aspects of your digital activity where applicable.
As we found, 59% of people made efforts to strengthen their passwords after learning of a major data breach in 2018, and another 45% were more wary of giving out their financial information online. While just 35% of people stopped logging into their personal accounts on public Wi-Fi networks, accessing the internet from an unverified source can be a risky business. In fact, accessing your accounts from a public Wi-Fi signal could expose you to data theft. Millennials were the least likely to make their passwords more difficult to guess but were more likely to be suspicious of public Wi-Fi and to use credit monitoring services.
How Data Is Exposed
Of the more than 900 people surveyed about data loss, 299 were data breach victims.
While you might be more worried about your financial data than anything else, other personal details can be equally as sensitive. Once a hacker has acquired a massive library of login details and passwords, they may use that information to gain access to a website where they can pose as you or have access to your financial records. One study found 90% of attempts to log in to retail websites aren't by account holders, followed by 60% of attempted logins on airline sites.
Nearly 50% of people who experienced a data breach had their email addresses leaked, followed by their full name (48%), phone numbers (30%), residential address (over 20%), and account login information (17%). Nearly 1 in 5 people had their financial information leaked in a data breach, including their credit card information (almost 14%), debit card information (around 12%), and bank account or routing number (6%). While 42% of victims learned their information had been leaked directly from the breached company, even more (43%) learned of the breach from media reports.
Building Up Barriers
After the Cambridge Analytica scandal in early 2018, trust in Facebook dropped 66% from 79% in 2017 to just 27% in the first week after the news broke of the scandal. With many people using the social media platform less by the end of 2018, and over 40% of users aged 18-29 removing Facebook from their phones, it's easy to see why users may have lost confidence in the tech giant following some of its public trials and tribulations in 2018.
But Facebook isn't the only business to lose consumer trust following a major data breach. On average, respondents' trust in a company declined by more than 67% after a data breach, led by Facebook (85%), Marriott (78%), and SunTrust Banks (77%). Additionally, 92% of people believed companies should be held legally responsible for financial losses to their customers after a breach, and more than 1 in 5 were unwilling to give their information to a company that had been exposed to hacking.
What's Happening in Security?
Yahoo still holds the record for the worst data breach of all time with more than 3 billion user accounts compromised in 2013 and 2014, including their customers' real names, email addresses, passwords, and phone numbers. Still, corporations still have not managed to develop a reliable defense against data breaches--billions of people were exposed to data loss in 2018.
As we found, most people were only loosely familiar with the total number of corporate breaches that occurred in 2018,Though the majority of people admitted to losing trust in corporations that experienced data breaches, most were unwilling to cut ties with these companies Instead, most people made their account passwords harder to guess and were more selective with whom they gave their financial information after learning of a breach, even though 1 in 3 people who experienced a data breach ultimately weren't sure which information was targeted.
We collected responses from 1,107 American survey respondents on their awareness of major data breaches in 2018. Survey respondents who reported they were unaware of all listed 2018 data breaches were barred from further participating in the survey. Of the remaining 961 respondents, 50.4% identified as female, 49.4% identified as male, and less than 1% identified as a gender unlisted on our study. Participants' ages ranged from 18 to 75, with a mean of 37 and a standard deviation of 11.9 years.
This study included data breaches that occurred from Jan. 1, 2018, to Dec. 31, 2018, regardless of the public reporting date. Only breaches leaking over 500,000 consumer records that affected consumers on a national scale were included.
With billions of people exposed in data breaches in 2018, your readers have a high chance of being personally affected. Help share more details about corporate data breaches by utilizing the results of our study for any noncommercial use with the inclusion of a link back to this page in your article.

Q: mysql foreach setting dynamic ID class and value I have this table setup. I'm struggling to figure out how to set the select to make my foreach loop through the results and display the proper pest_counts and pest_names with each card_id. I'm positioning the the card_id on a map using the left_x and top_y but I want only the pest_count and pest_name to appear by each card_id. I can get all or one of the counts to appear with each card_ id but I can't get each of the pest_counts and pest_names that is associated with that card_id.
Here's my table
pest_name   pest_count  card_id   card_type top_y   left_x   scout_date
Aphids      2              1       yellcard  652    703   3/13/2014 15:59:54
Thrips      4              1       yellcard  652    703   3/13/2014 15:59:54
Thrips      2              2       bluecard  754    707   3/13/2014 15:59:54
Thrips      1              3       yellcard  531    616   3/13/2014 15:59:54
Thrips      1              5       yellcard   80    613   3/13/2014 15:59:54

Here's what I want in the end for each pest_name and pest_count at each card.
This would be card_id 1
   2 Aphids
   4 Thrips

Here's one of many selects I've tried.
 $stmt = $pdo->prepare("SELECT card_id,card_type,top_y,left_x,pest_count,pest_name,scout_date FROM scout_logpestnum WHERE scout_date ='2014-03-13 15:59:54' GROUP BY card_id");
 $stmt->execute();
 $result = $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

Here's the html.
<?php
 foreach($result as $obj) {
?>
<div id="input<?= htmlspecialchars($obj['card_id']) ?><?= htmlspecialchars($obj['pest_name']) ?>" class="input stickyinput"><?= htmlspecialchars($obj['pest_count']) ?>

<?php
echo'
'.$obj['pest_name'].'
' ;
echo '
';
 }

A: You could use group_concat and concat for your pest names and counts, and then group by all the other attributes. This allows you to have a single label for pest_name and pest_count:
select
  group_concat(concat(pest_count,' ',pest_name) separator '
') pests,
  card_id,
  card_type,
  top_y,
  left_x,
  scout_date
from scout_logpestnum
group by
  card_id,
  card_type,
  top_y,
  left_x,
  scout_date

Michael Jackson's MTV impact
Updated Apr 01, 2019; Posted Jun 26, 2009
By Alan Sepinwall/The Star-Ledger
Michael Jackson in "Thriller."
How big an impact did
have on MTV? Put it this way: it took Jackson's death to get the channel to start playing music videos again. For the first day and a half after the death of the King of Pop, MTV largely abandoned its usual lineup of reality shows in favor of a marathon of Jackson videos, from the classics like "Beat It" to more obscure ones like 2001's "You Rock My World" (with a Marlon Brando cameo!).
It's been often said that Jackson brought about two fundamental changes to the world of music video: he desegregated MTV, and the cost and scope of his videos marked a paradigm shift away from the cheap, unambitious schlock MTV had been showing to that point.
There's more evidence supporting the former theory than the latter, but Jackson inarguably made as big a mark in the world of video as he did in the world of music itself.
Great as his songs were, many of our strongest memories of him come from television: The early Jackson 5 appearances with Diana Ross. The Rankin/Bass-produced Saturday morning cartoon. Jackson moonwalking to "Billie Jean" on the Motown 25th anniversary special on CBS in 1983, which has to rank alongside the "Ed Sullivan Show" debuts of Elvis Presley and The Beatles among the most iconic moments in the crossover between music and TV.
Most of all, we think of the videos: of Michael as a dancing zombie in "Thriller," Michael as a tough gang kid in "Beat It," Michael evading the paparazzi in "Billie Jean," etc. As he grew from boy to man, it was his dancing as much as his singing that made him the King of Pop, and nowhere was his otherworldly footwork on better display than in his videos.
MTV executives have always denied that there was any kind of prohibition against African American artists in the channel's early days, while Walter Yetnikoff, who was the head of Jackson's record label at the time, has always insisted there was.
Yetnikoff wrote in his autobiography, "Howling at the Moon," that "I screamed bloody murder when MTV refused to air his videos. They argued that their format, white rock, excluded Michael's music. I argued they were racist (jerks) -- and I'd trumpet it to the world if they didn't relent... With added pressure from Quincy Jones, they caved in, and in doing so the MTV color line came crashing down."
Whether MTV's resistance to Jackson had to do with color or genre, there was no question that his videos quickly became the channel's biggest draw.
The launch of the video for "Thriller" -- a 13-minute pastiche of '50s horror movies, directed by John Landis and featuring horror legend Vincent Price in a cameo -- was presented with all the pomp and circumstance of a movie premiere. Later Jackson videos, notably "Bad" and "Black or White," got similar treatment.
Whether there had previously been resistance to artists of color on the channel or not, there's no question that they became more prevalent after Jackson's ascension.
As for changing the content of the videos themselves, what Jackson and his collaborators accomplished wasn't so much a matter of kind as of degree. While the reputation of early '80s MTV was of low-budget videos that were little more than glorified concert footage, many videos of the pre-"Thriller" period were ambitious and/or expensive, like Duran Duran's "Rio," or Blondie's "Rapture."
But the "Beat It" video cost a reported $150,000, a huge figure at the time. "Thriller" was an epic. Many of Jackson's videos in later years would debut at an extreme length, then be cut down for regular airplay.
In addition to Landis, Jackson would work with directors like Martin Scorsese ("Bad"), John Singleton ("Remember the Time," which featured cameos by Eddie Murphy and Magic Johnson), Spike Lee ("They Don't Care About Us") and David Fincher ("Who Is It"). (Jackson also got Francis Ford Coppola to direct "Captain EO," the 3-D movie musical that used to play at Disney's theme parks.)
And as Jackson put more time, money and artistry into his videos, other singers followed suit.

In November, Liebherr exhibited at AusRAIL Plus, the southern hemisphere's largest rail conference and exhibition, at the Brisbane Convention Centre. The A 922 Rail Litronic attracted plenty of interest from local and international visitors to the event. The A 922 Rail Litronic wheeled excavator has an operating weight of 19.9-22.8 tonnes and can be used as a railroader: either on the road or on railway tracks. The rail travel drive is mounted on either side of the undercarriage. During re-railing, the rail travel drive brings the tyres to rail level, so that the inner wheels of the dual tyres assume the travel drive on rail.
The A 922 Rail can be equipped with a rail guide for regular-width, and wide tracks or friction wheel rail guide for narrow tracks, depending on operating requirements. It sets the standard in its class for fuel efficiency and reliability.
The A 922 Rail Litronic is powered by the 110 kW / 150 HP Liebherr diesel engine D 834 that complies with exhaust emissions stage IIIB. The exhaust gas treatment is effected by a diesel oxidation catalyst, while a particulate filter module can also be used if required.
The diesel engine drives a double hydraulic pump with a rated output of 2 x 215 litres per minute. Each pump can be controlled separately, for troublefree operation of tool attachments with an intensive power requirement, such as mulchers, trench cutting machines or hydraulic pile drivers. While one pump supplies power to the tool attachment, the other permits the railroader's travel and working movements to be supplied separately. The A 922 Rail also impresses with its high lift capacities.
Liebherr HVI hydraulic oil is used as standard on the A 922 Rail, and is capable of an operating life of more than 6,000 hours. Instead of fixed oil-change intervals, these are determined by the results of an oil analysis carried out every thousand hours of operation or once a year. To prolong the lifetime of the hydraulic oil, and as a reliable service indicator, for the return filter a magnetic rod is installed in the hydraulic oil tank as a standard item, and can be easily removed and cleaned when necessary.
The large engine cover on the A 922 Rail opens to expose the entire right-hand side of the machine, providing fast, convenient access to all servicing points. Day-to-day maintenance can be carried out from ground level; reducing service time and providing a safer workspace. To clean the generously sized radiator, the powerful fan can simply be swung out forwards.
Operator performance is impacted by comfort and usability, the clear layout and comfort of the operator's cab of the A 922 Rail offers sufficient space for driver and co-driver. The windscreen can be slid up as a complete unit, and the touch screen display is intuitive to operate. The excavator also has proportional controls on both sides of the joysticks for operating all auxiliary hydraulic circuits. Standard features include an air-sprung, heated driver's seat with the adjustable height and angle seat base, lumbar support, headrest, lap belt and ergonomically laid out control consoles that move with the seat. The high-quality standard equipment also includes automatic air-conditioning as well as speed control for enhanced comfort for longer road and rail journeys.
Occupational safety is extremely important in track construction. Among the standard safety equipment on the A 922 Rail are braked track wheels and pipe-burst protection for the lifting, luffing and stick cylinders. There are also standard cameras to monitor the areas to the side and rear of the machine with a separate display unit in the cab. The as-standard fully automatic central lubricating system avoids loss of working time due to the need to grease various points manually.
With LIKUFIX the productivity of the Liebherr railroader increases significantly: This makes it possible to change tools quickly and securely from the cab at the touch of a button.
Besides a competent and experienced team, the use of efficient and versatile construction machines and the corresponding tool attachments is the key prerequisite for economical and timely realisation of ambitious projects. The A 922 Rail can be equipped with the optional fully automatic LIKUFIX quick coupler system for hydraulic tool attachments. These can be detached and picked up quickly and safely without the operator having to leave the cab. The deployment options of a hydraulic excavator and machine productivity can thus be increased by up to 30 %. The second proximity switch for LIKUFIX showcased at Bauma 2016, offers even greater safety when using tool attachments on the construction site.
A 3.4 m long luffing boom or a 3.6 m boom that can be repositioned laterally, are available as options. There are also dipper arms 1.85 m, 2.05 m, 2.25 m or 2.65 m long that have been specially designed for work below overhead wires.
Two different counterweights can be selected for the railroader. The benefit of the heavy counterweight is the up to 15 % higher lift capacity on the equipment side with only a slightly bigger swing radius.
For the Australian market, the A 922 Rail Litronic is equipped with a directional light on the undercarriage. If required, powerful LED lighting is available for the machine. As well as providing ample illumination, it is noted for its long life and low current consumption. With the corresponding attachments, the railroader can be approved according to DIN EN 15746.


Add a contemporary vibe by bringing in this sophisticated collection. A contrasting welt trim tracing the edges of the slope track arms and coil spring filled cushions adds to the visual appeal of this set while tapering chrome legs provide plenty of style and support. Prominent button tufts decorate the back fitted pillows for a final touch, certain to draw attention and praise.

Experiencing the Music of "Game of Thrones" Live!
March 31, 2017 July 29, 2017 Ashley
This week I attended the Game of Thrones Live Concert Experience. At least I think that's the official name for it. Stadium acoustics aside (it was in the arena where they often host hockey matches), it's an amazing touring event led by Game of Thrones composer Ramin Djawadi, who serves as the evening's conductor, musician, and host. The orchestra that played was a local one, which was a nice touch for this particular show of a touring performance.
In the center of the arena were two circular stages — one hosting the orchestra, the other a platform for soloists — connected by a walkway. Above this were large screens that showed clips from the show while the orchestra and special musicians played below. Above the circular platforms, the screens were also round so all of the stadium could see, and sometimes they were lowered while the soloist on the small platform was raised higher. It made for a spectacular display.
From the moment the opening credits started rolling on those big screens, with the orchestra playing the theme song live, I knew this was going to be something really different. It's not so much a concert as a show, and while the music is a huge presence, it's the overall presentation that makes it so memorable.
Some songs followed themes or storylines, such as the romance between Jon and Ygritte, the White Walker presence, or Dany's time as a young Khaleesi. Other songs played while entire scenes from the HBO series played out onscreen. (Like, I had to relive the Red Wedding.)
The songs with the most impact were those where the live music had as much stage presence as the scenes from the show playing on the screens. Obviously, the score of HBO's Game of Thrones is beautiful throughout — but what made a showpiece here really special was when I could watch and listen to the musical act as it took center stage. My favorite was watching dummers play a theme for Daenerys. Other special acts were singers performing solos; watching an enthusiastic musician play some haunting didgeridoo to go along with White Walker footage; and, toward the end, watching composer Djawadi himself step away from the orchestra to play an instrument, as he did with Arya's theme.
As the performance went on I realized I had never watched the HBO show with a big audience before. It felt very different than watching at home, because I could hear the audience around me react to some of the big moments. It was especially fun to hear them shout in favor of Dany (a lot of guys seem to be in love with her) or boo Ramsay. At the start of the show, each character gets an introduction onscreen, and the characters who got the biggest applause were Daenerys, Jon Snow, Tyrion… and also the Viper.
The whole show led up to two epic songs and scenes that were shown at great length while the orchestra played accompaniment: the Battle of the Bastards and the scene of the sept being destroyed in the final episode of season six. While the latter has the most beautiful song in the show (in my opinion), I think the Battle of the Bastards was the best-received because that action scene is so amazing to watch.
I really enjoyed my time at the show and highly recommend seeing it if it's coming to your town! The presentation is perfect, without a bad seat in the house. I'd say acoustics are the weakest point of the show, but that's the fault of the venues; the music is still beautiful. If you enjoy Game of Thrones and want to experience it with a large audience, this is a unique experience for reliving the special parts of the HBO show. And I'm sure I'll notice all of the characters' different themes now that I've heard them separated out and played live in such a memorable way.

How To Be Anti-Establishment In 2020
The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum.
— Noam Chomsky
Recently, I saw a YouTube ad for a right-wing newspaper called The Epoch Times which claimed, and I'm paraphrasing, that they are the only news organization to question the idea that COVID-19 came from bats.
Really? Because on 4/15/2020, Fox News, one of the most establishment networks on this planet, said the following:
There is increasing confidence that the COVID-19 outbreak likely originated in a Wuhan laboratory, though not as a bioweapon but as part of China's attempt to demonstrate that its efforts to identify and combat viruses are equal to or greater than the capabilities of the United States, multiple sources who have been briefed on the details of early actions by China's government and seen relevant materials tell Fox News.
The next day, CNN, a network that dedicates itself to never questioning power, said the following:
US intelligence and national security officials say the United States government is looking into the possibility that the novel coronavirus spread from a Chinese laboratory rather than a market, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter who caution it is premature to draw any conclusions.
It certainly seems like anyone who has been following Senator Tom Cotton (R-AK) would have also heard the idea. As when he was told people who worked in that lab denied it while being interviewed by Fox News, Cotton responded by calling the man a partisan (unlike him, a Republican Senator who votes with Trump 88% of the time). Before the investigation, Cotton also told Fox News that the claim that it's a bioweapon "should not be ruled out."
You also near certainty have not heard of Rep. Peter Kind (R-NY) who said the idea that it was a bioweapon made by the Chinese is "worthy of investigation."
So that's two twenty four hour news networks, one Senator, and one Representative. But The Epoch Times wants to claim that it's the only ones questioning the narrative — really?
However, even if The Epoch Times claim was true (it isn't) I could really only consider that impressive if the mainstream media was somehow pro-China. (And if they weren't already infamous for having a strong anti-China bias, now that I think about it.) A search on the website Mediaite, an news website with a focus on what popular pundits are saying, for "China" shows the following headlines:
"We Don't Blame Trump, We Blame China": Lindsey Graham Claims Beijing Responsible For "16,000 American Deaths" — 4/9/2020
Trump Campaign Asks For 10,000 Donations To Help President "Hold China Accountable" — 4/14/2020
WATCH: Lou Dobbs Suggests Coronavirus Could Be A Biological Weapon, Proposes U.S. Take China To War — 4/16/2020
Trump Insists U.S. Does Not Have Highest Coronavirus Death Toll: "The Most In The World Has To Be China" — 4/17/2020
Lindsay Graham: "We Ought To Sanction The Hell Out Of China" — 4/18/2020
Trump Slams Global Supply Chain At Coronavirus Briefing: "I Ran Strongly Against China" — 4/19/2020
Steve Bannon Compares China To Nazi Regime On Fox, Calls For People To "Overthrow" Chinese Communist Party — 4/25/2020
Another Republican Attorney General Threatens Lawsuit Against China, Admits It Would Be "Tough" To Win — 4/26/2020
Hey, remember when NBC got in trouble for tweeting out this:
U.S. reports 1,264 coronavirus deaths in over 24 hours. Meanwhile in China, where the pandemic broke out, not a single new coronavirus death was reported.
Notice how they didn't say "has occurred," but instead used the phrase "was reported." When talking about a government most of the US already doesn't trust, using a phrase like "was reported," basically translates to "lied while saying that."
Still, this wasn't enough for the anti-China right-wing media. Hence why we got Tweets like this:
NBC bought it. Hook, line and sinker. Well done China. Well done. — Former White House Press Sectary and Fox News Contributor Ari Fleischer
The Chinese Communist Party, which relies heavily on information control to maintain power, has reported a miraculous zero new coronavirus deaths & NBC is running with that. Brilliant. — Natalie Johnson, Aid to Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY)
You may be missing something, @NBCNews. — The Daily Wire creator Ben Shapiro
Actually China told me they had a bunch of people straight up come back to life. So even better than zero! — Columnist Caleb Howe
Find someone who loves you like the American media loves the CCP. — Greg Price, Social Media Director for The Daily Caller
Again, someone really needs to tell The Daily Epoch about this.
Why did this bother me so much? To be honest, I'm not entirely sure myself. I know it's not because I have some love towards the Communist Party of China — hell, not only am I a believer in capitalism, but I'm also not a believer in censoring television channels I own to appease communist China, which already puts me at odds with Rupert Murdoch.
I think what bothers me the most is the pure double think coming from the right-wing media on this topic.
Here's one example: On 4/24/2020, Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee was guest hosting an episode of Hannity. During an interview with anti-China activist Gordon Change, the following conversation occurred:
HUCKABEE : Gordon, I'm not trying to throw something crazy out there, but is there at least the possibility that the Chinese have developed some type of biological weaponry, and that's what got loose with all of this? Is that even within the realm of possibility? Would that explain some of the cover-up?
CHANG: You know, that's not crazy, governor. At the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which is expected to be the source of the outbreak, they kept more than 1500 types of coronaviruses. And the question is, what were they doing there with those coronaviruses? Now, most scientists believe that the coronavirus that did get loose was naturally occurring, it was not spliced. But I think that Chinese officials, having seen what the disease did to China, crippling society, I think that what they tried to do was to try to make sure that it escaped China to level the playing field. They did two things, governor. First of all, they tried to convince the world that this disease was not human-to-human transmissible when they knew that it was. Also, they pressured countries to accept arrivals from China. You put those two things together and the inevitable conclusion is, no this wasn't a bioweapon when it started but it turned into one because Chinese leaders saw an opportunity to cripple other societies.
Meanwhile, on the 4/26/2020 edition of Fox And Friends Sunday, we have people, in that case host Pete Hegseth, comparing stay at home orders to "tyranny."
Meanwhile, Fox Host Laura Ingram is still comparing COVID-19 to a flu, a pretty bad bioweapon all things considered.
It's not just the anti-China bias that bothers me, but it's them trying to one up each other in the most ridiculous ways. At first, the claim was that China did not do enough to stop it — I guess besides the whole "putting the nation under quarantine and building a bunch of hospitals in less than a week" part.
For that matter, it's the idea that the independent circuit claims to rage against the machine, when all they're doing is arguing points the establishment can't make without sounding crazy. At time of writing, 90% of Americans consider China a threat to the United States. Yet, those claiming to fight the power are not trying to rationally analyze rather this is true, and instead are one upping each other and how they can scare us next.

Anglers Journal Digital Boat Show
The Cobia 330 dual console
The Cobia 330 dual console is the latest model from the Fort Pierce, Florida, builder. The company's largest dual console, the boat is designed for family fun, fishing and day cruising.
The 330 was introduced at the Miami International Boat Show in February, where we had a chance to walk through it.
The boat has ample seating, a large cockpit for fishing or lounging and plenty of amenities, such as a summer kitchen with a sink, refrigerator and a wine cooler, and a hidden bow table that converts to an oversized forward sun lounge. USB outlets and cup holders are located throughout the boat.
The new model also has a good turn of speed. Powered by a pair of Yamaha 425s, the 330 gets on plane in about 5 seconds and has a top speed of 60 mph. It cruises at 32 mph at 3,500 rpm, getting about 1.5 miles per gallon, according to the builder.
The hull was designed specifically for the dual console layout, with additional running-surface beam to carry the additional weight of the boat, relative to a center console. Additional hull bottom geometry was incorporated to counter the weight forward, which is typical of a dual console boat, and thus keep the boat at a proper running angle through all loading conditions.
The boat has a sharp entry, ample bow flare and rides a variable deadrise hull with 21½ degrees at the transom, which enables it to run dry and smoothly through a sea and remain stable at rest.
The 330 dual console is resin infused, producing laminates that are strong, stiff and light, which contributes to the overall soundness of the hull and fuel efficiency. Cobia uses the proprietary VARIS process — vacuum-assisted resin infusion system.
The new boat has 10-foot, 9-inch beam, allowing for a large uncluttered cockpit that resembles a dance floor. "It's like your living room with rod holders, fishboxes and a live well," says Charlie Johnson, marketing director for the Maverick Boat Group, Cobia's parent company.
Cockpit seating includes a large fold-away aft bench, another one under the port gunwale and two aft-facing jump seats. With seating for eight, the cockpit makes a great social space. Aretractable cockpit shade is an option.
Depending on where the boat is anchored or docked, there are three ways to board. The 330 hasan extended swim platform and integrated swim ladder leading to a transom door. There is also a starboard-side door that swings inboard on oversized hinges and closes on a magnetic catch. And a bow ladder enables boarding from a beach.
The boat does a nice job of blending fishing and family features. Given the fishing heritage of Maverick Boat Group president Scott Deal, it's little surprise the boat can fish hard (The groupbuilds four brands of fishing boats: Cobia, Pathfinder, Maverick and Hewes.)
The cockpit seats, for example, fold away when you're in fishing mode, providing unencumbered cockpit space and keeping the upholstery clean. There are two insulated fishboxes (70 quarts and 40 quarts) with macerators in the cockpit sole, a 28-gallon live well, rod holders and a full bait-prep station, which makes for a great working station. Outriggers are an option.
A hardtop covers the helm station and summer kitchen to starboard and the L-shaped seating to port. The standard galley has a refrigerator, wine cooler and sink, and a grill is optional. The helm is stylish and ergonomically laid out, with gauges, electronics, the autopilot, VHF and controls within easy reach. Sightlines are clean whether sitting or standing. The helm chair moves forward and aft electrically.
A head with a mirror and shower is in the port console. Forward, a hidden bow table rises from the sole with a touch of a button, converting the forward space into a large sun pad or, rising to table height, a place to dine.
The ample dry storage compartments from stem to stern are gasketed, with drains. There also is easy access to the bilge and mechanical systems via a lazarette, which can be raised electrically.A deck hatch in the center of the cockpit sole was designed to accommodate an optional Seakeeper 2 gyro stabilizer.
The Cobia 330 dual console is a smart blend of luxury, fishing know-how and performance.Suggested MSRP is $261,050 with twin Yamaha F300s.

Together we will find a cure for brain tumours.
Tom Beech
Sports-mad entrepreneur Tom Beech, now 22, was only five when he had his first seizure. With the support of family and friends, Tom is living with his low-grade brain tumour while also fulfilling his dreams of travel and launching his own fitness business.
"I'm living my life as I want, with the business ready to take off, and I'm even taking a few months out to travel. My only worry is getting the rucksack full of pills through customs…"
Tom Beech tells his story…
I had my first seizure at five years old. Initially we thought it was somehow related to chickenpox, but it was a benign tumour in my brain. I can't imagine what that news must have been like for my parents.
Seizures became a regular part of my childhood in Bushey, but I was still a very active child. My brother Will, who is two years younger than me, would always be outside with me playing football in the garden. He always had to be in goal. We called the seizures "shakies" so they didn't sound quite so scary, but I remember dreading them coming. I always knew, after a few weeks without one, that another would happen soon.
The shakies would usually happen in the early hours of the morning while I was sleeping, so we had a baby monitor in our shared bedroom until we were quite old. I vividly remember my mum, Liz, always being there to reassure me that everything was okay as I came around, saying "be strong". That motto stuck in my mind so much that I now have a tattoo to remind me. My parents have always been incredibly supportive and encouraging me to keep doing the things I loved rather than hiding away.
We have never been able to identify the triggers for my seizures. I tend to stay conscious and, afterwards, my right side goes numb and I basically can't move much for a day. I avoided sleepovers with friends and didn't tell many people at school about it, although they knew I had to go to hospital sometimes.
I have clear memories of numerous visits to the GP, Watford General Hospital and Great Ormond Street Hospital. GOSH is very kid-friendly, as you would expect, with games in the waiting room and films to watch during MRI scans. They used to tell me that they were just taking pictures of my head and I could just fall asleep during the scan if I wanted to, but it was impossible really as it was so loud.
As I got older, I started to ask more questions and learn more about my illness. By the time I was in secondary school, I knew it was called a benign brain tumour – medically termed as a dysembryplastic neuroepithelial tumour (DNET). It became a bigger part of my life. When I was 11, I used to love going to football club, but one day I headed a ball and then collapsed on the pitch with a seizure. I was so aware of all the shocked faces of parents and players. I never went back and stopped playing football after that, taking up rugby instead. It felt humiliating to have everyone know and feel sorry for me. I didn't want that.
I just wanted to be normal and have never asked for extra time on exams or any special treatment. It was tough, as a child, not to always be able to do what I wanted. I remember having to go to GOSH for tests for a whole week and being stuck inside watching Britain's Got Talent every day. I was so annoyed; it was half-term and all my friends were out doing fun things.
I went onto anti-seizure medication after getting worse and missing days at school. My doctor tried to downplay the seriousness of the situation but I knew something was wrong. Taking my meds became a bit of a ritual, I would always stand in the kitchen in the same place.
I was determined to stay active and sporty, despite my illness, and went skiing while at secondary school. It was still rare for me to have a seizure while awake but I was unlucky on the slopes one day. My dad and brother were nearby and had to grab me, other skiers stuck their skis in and made a kind of barrier around me to stop people skiing into me. I was still half way down the mountain, so once the seizure passed I had to ski down balancing on one leg with Dad and Will helping me. Two years later, we went back and I skied the same run. All my friends and family clicked their poles in the air as I came down the swoosh, it was a great moment!
Surgery has been discussed over the years and now I am over 18, if the choice is offered, it would be my decision about whether or not to have a resection. The area of the brain around my tumour controls movement, so there is a risk there. I used to have temporary paralysis after seizures, so I could have been left with permanent weakness down one side, plus there is no guarantee that surgery would stop the seizures. It's darkly interesting to see how the structure of the brain affects each part of you. I took Psychology A level and used to look through all my old MRIs to see if I could identify the tumour.
I still don't like to tell people about it. I don't like them fussing around or worrying about what to do or say. Obviously, I told my housemates at university so they knew what to do if I did have a seizure, some people think they should hold me really tightly to stop me shaking but that's not the best idea. I advised them to time it, keep talking to me and call an ambulance.
Going to university in Gloucestershire was a great experience, I was studying Sports Strength and Conditioning as I enjoy being part of a team and have always loved sports – although the doctors recommended that I avoid boxing! I was hoping to be able to drive there and had even booked my test, being seizure-free for a year, when I suffered a seizure only three days beforehand. I was sulky and tired, with not even enough energy to be angry, it was just the way it was. I finally passed (first time!) after university, having waited another year since my last seizure.
My dissertation was on teaching and coaching children, so initially after I graduated I worked in a special needs department of a school. You can really see the difference you're making with these kids. My vision was launching my fitness website in 2017, Rockhopper Fitness, inspired by the tenacity of rockhopper penguins. Those little things just keep going! I want to be the best I can be, without letting my illness hold me back, and hopefully helping adults and children to get active and love sport as I do.
Rockhopper is supporting the charity Brain Tumour Research as it pinpoints exactly what we want to do to help. I'm on annual scans now, being monitored regularly and taking ten pills every day. I'm living my life as I want, with the business ready to take off, and I'm even taking a few months out to travel. My only worry is getting the rucksack full of pills through customs…
Rockhopper Fitness pledges that 10% of net profit will go directly to Brain Tumour Research. Furthermore anyone running a marathon, taking part in a swim or bike ride, or any other sport to raise money for Brain Tumour Research can claim 25% off the price of the relevant Rockhopper Fitness programme.

Brain tumours are indiscriminate; they can affect anyone at any age. What's more, they kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer... yet just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this devastating disease.

Drop in spirit sales suggests Czechs might not be Europe's leading alcohol consumers
Photo: Filip Jandourek / Czech Radio
The Czech Republic has been for years considered one of Europe's leading countries in terms of alcohol consumption per capita. But recent data on the sales of spirits in the country suggest Czechs might not be such heavy drinkers after all.
According to data released by the Czech Republic's Spirit Producers and Importers Union on Thursday, the sales of alcoholic beverages have dropped by nearly a quarter since restrictions related to Covid-19 were introduced in the country, the website Aktualne.cz reports. That figure is actually lower than EU average.
"We assume that most people didn't change their habits related to the consumption of alcohol during the coronavirus crisis. People who were used to going to restaurants and bars currently have to stay at home. Despite that, sales have dropped by 24 percent," Vladimír Darebník, head of the Spirit Producers and Importers Union, told the website.
Mr. Drábek says that apart from foreign tourists, who are now banned from entering the Czech Republic, the drop in sales has been affected by the ban on cross-border shopping. "Germans and Austrians come to the Czech Republic to buy alcohol for favourable prices, just like our citizens go shopping to these countries for food and clothes," Mr. Drábek told the website.
While sales in restaurants and hotels have taken a deep plunge, the retail sales of alcoholic beverages increased by 14 percent. One of the reasons behind the increase is higher consumer tax, introduced in 2020.
The price of half a litre of spirits with 40 percent alcohol content grew from CZK 57 to CZK 65, which represents an increase by 16 percent.
Breweries report a 40 percent drop in sales as a result of the coronavirus epidemic. In the case of mini-breweries, the losses exceed 80 percent.
The drop in sales is caused not only by the closure of restaurants, but also by lower exports. The data of the Czech Statistics Office suggest consumption of alcohol in the Czech Republic has been quite stable over the past few years. While in 2016, the annual consumption of spirits was 173.5 litres per capita, in 2017 it was 170.6 litres and in 2018 it reached 172.8 litres.
Meanwhile back in 1948, the average Czech drank only 84.4 litres of alcohol a year.

Mary Jemima- b. abt 1854. Jimmima in 1860 and Mary J. in 1870. Nothing further is known about her.
Henry b. abt 1854. Not found in either Tattnall or Liberty counties in 1880, 1900, or 1910. He may have either moved elsewhere or is deceased after 1870. Or he went by another name.
There are three Charles Todds found in the 1900 census in both Tattnall and Liberty counties (where our Todds are most commonly found), all born about the same year. Two are the sons of Mary E.s brothers, William E. and John J.. The remaining one is Charles W. Todd, found in Tattnall Co., b. Apr 1859, m. to Laura. Children: David C., Allen R., Molly R., Minnie L., and Laura M. Without any other corroborating evidence or context- i.e, mother or sibling living in his household, I don't feel confident enough to say this is the same Charles.
Jacob's middle name was either W. (1870) or C.
Source for Rosa's maiden name comes from her daugher, Mattie Todd Otto's death certificate.
The children of Jacob and Rosa are quite confusing. There are gender and age discrepancies, as well as different names from one census to the next. It's hard to determine whether some of them are the same persons.
This one is particularly illegible. It looks like John, but is actually Jake.


Sales careers outnumber marketing careers 60 to 1, and 1 out of 9 b2b professionals work in the sales industry, yet sales still seems to be missing from the classroom.
As one of the largest professions in the country, sales is rarely offered as a major or minor to college students, even though more than 50% of college graduates will hold their initial job in sales.
Recognizing this gap between higher education and the skills needed to be successful in the workforce, universities have started to introduce sales programs into the curriculum. This educational experience equips students with the knowledge, experience, and skills needed to be successful in their careers. These universities are making strides in linking higher education and the sales industry.
North of New Jersey and east of Ohio, Plymouth has the largest program in that geographic footprint. The program was started in 2010 by Bob Nadeau who teaches marketing, sales, and sales management. Bob is also a Business Consultant to organizations for business development and sales training. Students at Plymouth State University have access to Professional Selling courses and are directed towards internships where they gain valuable experience before graduation. The program has a Sales Advisory Board made up of 20 companies who provide advice on curriculum to keep it relevant and cutting edge. In Professional Selling II the students practice out-going new business development calls both in person and on the phone.
UConn's Marketing Department gives their students the solid training they need to excel in professional sales by offering a Professional Sales Leadership Concentration, a Certificate Program, and a Sales Minor. Marketing majors can choose sales as their undergraduate concentration and the Minor is open to business and non-business majors. The UConn faculty has extensive experience in professional sales and the university partners with corporate sponsors to strategize on sales techniques to help their students get jobs. Bill Ryan joined the department in 2011 and is the Head of Professional Sales and Marketing Leadership programs. He has more than 20 years of private sector experience and leads the outreach with employer partners that recruit students for marketing and sales positions.
Southern New Hampshire University offers Professional Selling as a general education course where students pursuing the minor must demonstrate the potential and strong desire to pursue a career in sales. Through one-on-one coaching, role-plays, and presentations, the students are critiqued by faculty and sales professionals. SNHU sales students have the opportunity to participate in local and regional sales competitions. Students are set up with the foundation necessary to start a career in sales. Micheline Anstley is the Director of the SNHU Sales Competition Coaching Program, serving as a mentor to those pursuing sales hunting roles after graduation.
The sales minor at Bryant gives students both a theoretical background and applied experience in the field. They also host the Northeast Intercollegiate Sales Competition that draws students from the top sales programs in New England. The tournament style sales competition has students competing over cash prizes and also provides individualized feedback and coaching, skill and leadership building sessions, and a chance for students and employers to network. Dr. Stefanie Boyer created the sales program at Bryant and is the Director of the Northeast Intercollegiate Sales Competition. She held various roles in training and developing sales professionals before leveraging her expertise and research into teaching.
The University of New Hampshire, Sales Center for Excellence is a business community filled with prospective sales leaders. Funded by grants and investments from the business community, the intent is to make their students sought after job candidates in America for Fortune 500 companies. At UNH, the students are groomed for a professional selling career with coursework and hands on experience doing mock presentations, negotiations, and formulating strategy with business executives. James McIlroy is the advisor for the UNH Sales Club and is passionate about mentoring up-and-comers for success in the workforce. UNH also holds an annual Sales Competition, drawing in support from top sales organizations and giving students the opportunity to apply their sales education into real life selling situations.
The University of New Haven encourages their students to consider coursework in their specific areas of interest. Those completing the Professional Sales Minor will learn sales theories, start to learn how to understand buyers, initiate customer relationships, and deliver sales presentations. The students will be prepared to utilize well developed and rational decision making methodologies in handling customer dealings, team selling, employing techniques of self-leadership, and coordinate and execute activities that support the creation of goods and services. Charles Peterson is the faulty director and has over thirty years of sales industry experience. He is the founder of SaleMetrix, Inc., consulting with companies in over twenty industries in the areas of sales strategy development, sales & key account management, sales process implementation, sales training, CRM implementation.
It is counterintuitive that universities prepare accountants, teachers, programmers, engineers, etc. for careers post-graduation, but they miss the opportunity to prepare students for their most likely occupation, sales.
Even if a student does not pursue a sales career, they will still require selling skills that are relevant and required across different roles.
Universities that are incorporating and teaching sales programs are preparing students for real world challenges after graduation. Students gain the necessary experience for a sales career and skills that are transferable across all industries.
