    ST. SIMMONS Written by Greg Wayne MGMT: MUTINY Ryan Casey 213.259.3772 [email protected] FADE IN: An impish, middle-aged man with a delightfully frizzy afro, wearing a sparkly red tank top and dolphin shorts grins at us... The twinkle in his eye is the most mischievous thing imaginable. He’s outrageously, fabulously effeminate. He’s a glorious bundle of light and love... He’s RICHARD FUCKING SIMMONS. RICHARD It’s sweatin’ time! Multicolored lights blast on behind him, revealing rows of HAPPY PEOPLE of all shapes and sizes in workout gear. Richard leads them in a fun, energized, cheekily-sexy aerobics routine. The TODAY SHOW bug appears in the lower corner of the screen. SAVANNAH GUTHRIE (V.O.) For forty years, this has been the Richard Simmons the public has been accustomed to seeing -- energetic and irresistible. INSERT VIDEO: Richard beams and waves to SPECTATORS from atop a turtle float at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. SAVANNAH GUTHRIE (V.O.) But the fitness guru disappeared from the public eye in 2014, leaving many -- including his closest friends -- deeply concerned. INSERT PHOTO: A too-skinny Richard forces a smile on a red carpet. His afro has seen better days. SAVANNAH GUTHRIE (V.O.) But Simmons is now breaking his silence, after opening up to us by phone. Richard, via phone, tries to conjure the liveliness seen in the video clips. But there’s a despondency he can’t hide... RICHARD (V.O.) Savannah, it’s Richard Simmons. How are you? 2.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Beth Gwazdosky (512) 921-8148 Start Shaping the New You with Richard Simmons Beloved fitness expert partners with Chicken Soup for the Soul to share tips and inspiration COS COB, Conn. – “There is no better inspiration than hearing someone else‟s success story,” according to Richard Simmons, America‟s most popular and entertaining fitness expert, who has written the foreword and a story about his own life for Chicken Soup for the Soul‟s new book Chicken Soup for the Soul: Shaping the New You, (Chicken Soup for the Soul Publishing, LLC, December 28, 2010, 978-1935096573, $14.95), a book filled with personal stories that will encourage and inspire readers with its positive, practical, and purposeful tales of weight loss and fitness. In his foreword and his personal story, Simmons reveals his own fascinating history: his childhood with show business parents; his early life in New Orleans, surround by music, dance, and food; his struggle with obesity and dieting; and how he ultimately found his own path to fitness before starting his exercise and motivational studio in Beverly Hills and launching his very successful line of exercise videos and books. “My whole life is about inspiration,” says Simmons in his foreword, “so when the folks from Chicken Soup for the Soul showed me the manuscript for this book, I wanted to get involved. These stories, written by regular people about their efforts to control their weight and get fit, really resonate with me.” Simmons is known for his back to basics approach to fitness and weight control -- portion control, exercise, and fun are the three components of any good fitness plan.

  • The Radiohead's Guide to Headlines
    Monica Gokey/APRN December 2015 THE RADIOHEAD’S GUIDE TO HEADLINES LESSON 1: Write headlines with the active voice Here are some examples of what not to do: DOD studying economics of drawdown NOAA investigating Steller sea lion deaths near Cordova Obama announcing icebreaker plans The implied verb in all those headlines is "is." The DOD is studying. Obama is announcing. ​ ​ ​ ​ A better way to write these headlines is to drop the "­ing" from those verbs and make 'em active: DOD studies economics of drawdown ​ ​ NOAA investigates Steller sea lion deaths near Cordova ​ ​ Obama announces icebreaker plans (OR, "Obama to announce icebreaker plans" depending on the story) ​ ​ ​ ​ Now it's your turn! Can you improve these headlines? (Just do it in your head.) ● Reporters complaining about web editor's pesky emails ● Public radio station mourning impending loss of Bagel Friday ● NPR seeing need for more crunk on airwaves ________________________________________________________________________________ LESSON 2: Label heds (aka "title heds") Last week we learned about avoiding ­ing verbs for a more active headline. (Bad: NOAA investigating sea ​ ​ lion deaths. Good: NOAA investigates sea lion deaths) ​ ​ Label heds are dull and immobile. What's missing? A verb. And, by golly, do we love our verbs. Some examples of 'meh' title heads: "President Obama's historic Alaska trip" "Emporer goose subsistence hunting from a local hunter's perspective" "South Fairbanks shoot out" Not all title heds are bad. But they should imply the gist of the story, and it's neat if they have a double­meaning. Or, they should really make you want to click that story.
