Full Beacher THE TM 911 Franklin Street Weekly Newspaper Michigan City, IN 46360 Volume 36, Number 42 Thursday, October 22, 2020 Life at Bike Speed by Kim Nowatzke t was a challenging, un- believable, unforgettable Iidea. And they just rolled with it. Later this month, Dr. Rob Liddell and Mark Dean, with assistance from Tim Salley, will have completed their goal of cycling across Ameri- ca, beginning in Seattle and ending at Washington, D.C., for a total of more than 3,000 miles. Liddell, 63, born and raised in Long Beach, and Dean have enjoyed plenty of active adventures during their time as friends and neighbors over the past 20 years. They ac- complished a cycling trip to Italy and other impressive one-day, 200-mile rides from their hometown in Seattle to Portland. They biked 150 miles around Washington’s Mount Ranier, participated in the Alcatraz Sharkfest Swim and independently fi n- ished their fair share of tri- athlons. That’s why fi ve years ago, Liddell suggested a cycling trip across the entire United States. Right away, Dean was on board. After working as a diag- nostic radiologist in the Se- attle area for 34 years, Lid- dell, 63, was semi-retired. He is the son of the late Dr. Mark Dean (from left), Sarah Liddell Thompson (Rob’s sister) and Rob Liddell are Continued on Page 2 photographed in Deedsville, Ind., where they hopped on the Nickel Plate Trail.

  • Baltimore Reporters Do Some Fine TV Storytelling on Sandy
    Baltimore reporters do some fine TV storytelling on Sandy Lowell Melser report highlights risk in bearing witness to storm By David Zurawik 7:46 AM EDT, October 30, 2012 After 14 hours of watching Sandy storm coverage, I am convinced that no one deserves more praise than the reporters and camerapersons on the ground in places like Ocean City. I know in these snarky, all-you-need-is-irony, postmodern times, lots of folks, including some journalists who should know better, like to make fun of TV reporters standing in high winds and driving rain or snow to report on a storm. I could not disagree more. The image of a correspondent being pounded by the elements is as crystal-clear an objective correlative for the core role of journalism as I can imagine. I want someone out there on the edge of the ocean and the tip of the storm bearing witness to the power of nature -- and reporting on the danger the storm portends for the rest of us back in our homes. Yes, there are wall-to-wall fools and hotdogs working at TV stations. In fact, some might say there are far more of them than serious journalists. But I have not seen many hotdogs or fools out in the storm in my 14 hours of watching Baltimore TV coverage of the storm today. I've mainly seen hardworking folks trying to get the story their editors sent them out to get -- and doing it even as they get soaked by a cold, hard rain and brutal winds.

We received a great deal of positive feedback on the summer edition format, which included recommendations for the months ahead. We’re therefore doing the same for autumn: instead of monthly updates, we’re providing a full season’s worth of expert recommendations and curated ‘must-sees’. I also wanted to call attention to our new BON VIVANT Spotify playlist for the season. We often struggle to fully convey the excitement of the amazing events and experiences we highlight in BON VIVANT. So we thought: why not create a Spotify playlist so you can easily get a taste of the music that’s on offer this autumn, from opera to bossa nova to alternative rock and pop? I hope this autumn will be as vivacious as ever!

    Newsletter Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, Kansas, Mexico February 2017 Inaugural Region 6 Future Industry Leaders Conference a Success! The BOK Center and the Cox Business Center, both SMG-managed facilities, hosted the first IAVM Region 6 Future Industry Leaders Conference on January 30th-31st in Tulsa, OK. The event welcomed more than 80 attendees from the region, and included two days of learning, networking and collaborating with industry professionals. Allie Stites, Events Manager for Cox Business Center and co-chair said, “It was an honor to get to be a part of the first IAVM Region 6 Future Industry Leaders Conference. We were fortunate enough to work with an outstanding committee who helped shape this conference from concept to completion. It was fun to bounce ideas off each other, and work together to create an educational and engaging conference for our colleagues in the venue management industry.” The first day featured sessions on professional development, promoters & booking, backstage catering, ethics, safety & security, and creating your own events. The second day featured courses from the Academy for Venue Safety & Security Severe Weather Preparedness program. Featuring presenters from AccuWeather and The National Weather Service, as well as sessions on legal considerations and media interaction during severe weather, attendees gained valuable knowledge about weather statistics and facts. Meghan Blood, Director of Marketing for BOK Center said, “The inaugural Region 6 Future Industry Leaders conference gave me a lot of information that I’m now able to take back to my venue and implement, specifically in regards to weather safety. This conference was also great for networking purposes – I was able to meet a lot of great people that I’ll likely contact if I ever have questions or need input on policies/procedures that they use at their venue.” Attendees received credit toward their Certified Venue Professional certification, if IAVM members, and a certificate of completion from the AVSS Severe Weather Preparedness course.
