And the video is amazing. Imagine a great (in the sense of teaching) professor lecturing, and add to that the ability to stop and replay, with self-check questions afterwards to ensure you got the message.

Frank Ryan, last Browns quarterback to win a title, passes away at age 87


https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/fr ... e27f&ei=21


– The last quarterback to lead the Browns to an NFL title passed away on New Year’s Day.

That’s Frank Ryan, who led the Browns to a 27-0 victory over the Baltimore Colts in the 1964 NFL Championship Game. Ryan threw three TD passes, all to Gary Collins, as the Browns pulled off the upset over the heavily favored Colts and quarterback Johnny Unitas.

Ryan passed away at the age of 87 from Alzheimer’s disease. He had been in a nursing home in Waterford, Connecticut, according to an email from his son, Frank “Pancho” Ryan Jr.

Ryan had an amazing career well beyond his 13 years in the NFL. He taught math at Rice University, Yale and Case Western University. When he was leading the Browns to the 1964 title, he also was working on his Ph.D. in math at Rice. Yes, playing football and doing high-level graduate math work at the same time.

Charles Osgood


https://www.msn.com/en-us/entertainment ... e327&ei=71


Journalist Charles Osgood, who anchored "CBS Sunday Morning" for 22 years and was host of the long-running radio program "The Osgood File," died Tuesday at home in New Jersey. He was 91.

The cause of death was dementia his family tells CBS News. Osgood spent 45 years with CBS retiring in 2016.

For almost 46 years, Osgood wrote and hosted "The Osgood File," written radio commentaries on the day's news, broadcast up to four times a day, five days a week, that were occasionally rhymed. For each edition, which aired on stations around the country, he signed off with the familiar "I'll see you on the radio" – a phrase he carried over to his TV duties hosting "CBS Sunday Morning."

"The Osgood File" ran on WCCO Radio and many of the CBS News stations for its entirety.

Osgood began anchoring "CBS Sunday Morning" in 1994 after succeeding longtime host Charles Kuralt, who called Osgood "one of the last great broadcast writers."

During his run on the show it reached its highest ratings levels in three decades, and three times earned the Daytime Emmy as Outstanding Morning Program.

Charles Osgood Wood III was born on January 8, 1933, in New York City, adopting the surname of Osgood on the air to avoid being confused with another broadcaster of the time. He grew up in Baltimore, Philadelphia and New Jersey, and spent his youth taking piano lessons, delivering newspapers, and beginning a lifelong relationship with radio at the time ...




He often turned news into entertainment.

CBS had a number of terrific reporters/journalists and Charles was among the best. How could you not like watching CBS Sunday Morning?

Melanie


https://www.msn.com/en-us/entertainment ... f1e7&ei=29

Melanie, the singer-songwriter who rose through the New York folk scene, performed at Woodstock and had a series of 1970s hits including the enduring cultural phenomenon “Brand New Key," has died.

Her publicist Billy James told The Associated Press that Melanie died Tuesday. She was 76 and lived in central Tennessee. The cause was not immediately revealed.

“Our world is much dimmer, the colors of a dreary, rainy Tennessee pale with her absence today,” her children Leilah, Jeordie and Beau Jarred, said in a post on her Facebook page announcing her death.

With a voice that could shift from high-pitched and coy to a deep soulful rasp, Melanie wrote and sang hits including “Look What They’ve Done to My Song Ma" and “Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)."
She was best known for “Brand New Key,” a song from her 1971 album “Gather Me” that she wrote about about a girl who bikes and skates past the house of a boy she longs for. It became a No. 1 hit in the U.S. and several other countries.

N Scott Momaday - Pulitzer Prize winner and giant of Native American literature, dies at 89

Image


https://www.the-journal.com/articles/n- ... d-at-89-2/?

“House Made of Dawn,” is widely credited as the starting point for contemporary Native American literature, has died. He was 89.

Momaday died Jan. 24 at his home in Santa Fe, publisher HarperCollins announced. He had been in failing health.

“Scott was an extraordinary person and an extraordinary poet and writer. He was a singular voice in American literature, and it was an honor and a privilege to work with him,” Momaday's editor, Jennifer Civiletto, said in a statement. “His Kiowa heritage was deeply meaningful to him and he devoted much of his life to celebrating and preserving Native American culture, especially the oral tradition.”

“House Made of Dawn,” published in 1968, tells of a World War II soldier who returns home and struggles to fit back in, a story as old as war itself: In this case, home is a Native community in rural New Mexico. Much of the book was based on Momaday’s childhood in Jemez Pueblo and on his conflicts between the ways of his ancestors and the risks and possibilities of the outside world.
