February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

Almost Famous INFORMATION
SEPT. 2009 SEE MCHS HISTORY FILE FOR RESEARCH Almost Famous INFORMATION What does it mean to be famous? One definition, according to Dictionary.Com, is as follows: Having a widespread reputation, usually of a favorable nature; renowned; celebrated: a famous writer.1 Throughout the course of Martin County’s history, there have been many individuals that have had significant accomplishments in a variety of fields and professions. There are, however, very likely many more that have been productive members of society but may not have reached the pinnacle of their respective professions, and therefore have lived without the fanfare and recognition that the most gifted in their fields and professions might receive. This is true from politics to sports, from medicine to the acting profession, and beyond. It could in all probability be said that most people end up somewhere in the “middle” in their professions, rather than at either end and, consequently, may not be considered “famous.” One person that might fit that characterization is Martin County native Paul Willson, a comic actor and improve artist. Born on Christmas Day, 1945, in Fairmont, Minnesota, he is the son of Doris and Lee Willson. His father worked in a variety of jobs that included real estate, magazine advertising, and public relations which eventually led his family to the San Francisco Bay area in 1952. According to an article from the San Francisco Chronicle, Willson is quoted as saying, “I was shy as a boy, I was afraid to say anything that might be wrong.” He apparently never thought as a youth that he would become an entertainer.

HBO Leads 60Th Primetime Emmys 30 Rock, Mad Men Take Top Series September 21, 2008
HBO Leads 60th Primetime Emmys 30 Rock, Mad Men Take Top Series September 21, 2008 A 1960s advertising agency, a fictional sketch-comedy show and the second president of the United States were among the big winners at the 60th Primetime Emmy Awards. Among the twenty-eight awards handed out over the course of the Television Academy’s diamond anniversary event, which was telecast live on ABC, HBO topped the night with 10 winged statuettes. NBC followed with four. Combined with its awards at last Saturday’s Creative Arts Emmys, HBO led for the year as well, with 26 in all. Leading the recipients of multiple awards between the two awards ceremonies was HBO’s seven-part historical miniseries John Adams, with 13 Emmys, surpassing a miniseries record set by another HBO production, Angels in America, which won 11 in 2004, and ABC’s Eleanor and Franklin, which won 11 in 1976. It was an evening of milestones and memories. Among the September 21 ceremony’s firsts: the Primetime Emmys’ debut in their new venue, NOKIA Theatre L.A. LIVE, in downtown Los Angeles. In another landmark, 2008 was the first time an Emmy was awarded for outstanding host for a reality or reality-competition program. The five nominees, Tom Bergeron (Dancing with the Stars), Heidi Klum (Project Runway), Howie Mandel (Deal or No Deal), Jeff Probst (Survivor) and Ryan Seacrest (American Idol) — commemorated the new category by hosting the festivities. In addition, a new record was set for consecutive wins in a single category when Comedy Central’s The Daily Show with Jon Stewart prevailed as outstanding variety, music or comedy series and CBS’s The Amazing Race was named outstanding reality-competition program.
