...magic of Casey is that he is the ultimate professional in whatever he does ... He enlightens, he explores, he suggests, he provokes, and he informs." - Radio and TV personality Gary Owens, who worked with Kasem in the early 1980s for an annual UNICEF radio drama. (Billboard, April...
...sales, really? After edging up in May, sales dropped again in June below the 10 million-unit annual sales pace, which puts new vehicle sales at the slowest pace since the recession in 1958 - a downturn that forced some carmakers, notably Packard, to shut their doors for good.

But this week, we dive deeply into F.D.R.'s Administration and discuss what the new President can learn from how F.D.R. dealt with both the Depression and a gathering international storm. As former President Bill Clinton writes in his insightful back-page essay, "Roosevelt...
...Mitchell--then chief engineer of the company's mobile- and portable-products division and later the company's president and chief operating officer--probably had no idea that by the time he retired, in 1998, wireless products would account for two-thirds of Motorola's $30 billion in annual sales. It's also a safe bet he never fathomed that nearly 60% of the world's population would use mobile phones just a quarter-century after his brainchild was unveiled...
