Those in italics have five or more pieces of usable visual, written, or audio propaganda already. If you have any visuals like photos or videos, or if you have something to say in words, submit it to this blog before round one begins on June 25th!

If you don't see a name you submitted here, it's because most or all of their career was as a child/they were too young for the cutoff, their career was almost entirely after 1979, or music was something they only dabbled in and are hardly known for. There are quite a few ladies on the list whose primary career wasn't "recording artist" or "live musician," but released several albums or were in musical theater, so they've been accepted.

Titus Livitus Ürkek bir insan tehlikeden önce korkar, korkak olayların cereyan ettiği anda, cesur bir insan ise sonrasında. Paul Richter İnsan ne yoksulluktan, ne sürülmeden, ne hapisten,ne de ölümden korkmalı, yalnızca korkak olmaktan korkmalıdır.

En uzağa giden adam en çok şeyi yapan ve en zor cesaret edendir. ‘Her Şeyden Emin Gemisi’ kıyıdan hiçbir zaman fazla uzaklaşamaz. Dale Carnegie Uçurtmalar rüzgarın kuvvetiyle değil, o kuvvete karşı uçtukları için yükselirler.

Judith Rossner İnsanlar kendilerini etkileyecek tehlikelerde ürkek davranırlar, ama başkaları tehlideyken ilk kurtaranlar olurlar. Paul Richter Zorlukların baskısı cesur bir adamın zihnini etkilemez. Zihni dış şartlardan daha güçlüdür. Seneca Cesaret, hayal edebilene inanmaktır.

Hayatla şimdi yüzleşin. Anonim Korkuyor iken yapabileceğiniz en cesur şey, cesur olduğunuza inanıp bunun doğrultusunda hareket etmektir.

Swanepoel announces 2017’s most powerful people in real estate

http://ift.tt/1sf7EJt

What defines power? Certainly not popularity, Stefan Swanepoel opines in his 2017 list of residential real estate industry heavyweights, released today with Zillow Group CEO Spencer Rascoff winning the top spot.

Stefan J. M. Swanepoel

The Swanepoel Power 200 (SP200) annually ranks the 200 most powerful people in real estate along with a series of influencer subsets including corporate executives, power brokers, technology executives, association/MLS executives and women leaders.

In addition to the main power list, the SP200, generated by the Swanepoel T3 Group, recognizes additional movers and shakers in four bonus categories: Trendsetters, Social Influencers and Outside Powers. Emerging Leaders, honoring leaders under 40, was a new SP200 spotlight this year.

Giants on the main list

In 2016, Zillow Group made headlines for litigation, acquisitions, new offerings and a profit-turning third quarter.

The SP200 explains Rascoff’s top placement as follows: “Seven years into his tenure as CEO, Rascoff, 41, has Zillow Group humming on all cylinders. It operates the world’s most popular real estate site in Zillow, is building a comprehensive data management platform epitomized by the acquisition of Bridge Interactive Group, and saw the company’s market cap climb to $6.5 billion.”

In addition to Rascoff, Zillow Group’s Amy Bohutinsky, who is often considered “the smartest of a very smart group of senior executives” at the company, took first place among the list of most influential female leaders and 10th place overall.

On the main list, Realogy CEO, president and chairman Richard A. Smith, who was ranked as the No. 1 power player for the past three years in a row, ranked second behind Rascoff, followed by Keller Williams Realty chairman, co-founder and “mastermind” Gary Keller in third place.

Under Keller’s leadership, KW “grew to 152,000 agents in 2016, making it the world’s largest real estate brand by agent count,” the SP200 noted.

Leaders from HomeServices of America, Re/Max, the National Association of Realtors, NRT, Zillow and Move rounded out the rest of the top 10. With plans to retire at the end of 2017, Dale Stinton ranked sixth as “the longest-tenured chief executive in NAR history.”

Powerful women in real estate

In total, the main SP200 list featured 45 women, two of whom were listed in conjunction with their male business partners.

Last year, Stefan Swanepoel noted that women and minorities rarely helm leading real estate firms.

“In the highest places of leadership diversity is lacking (only 5.5 percent) as are the number of females (only 20 percent),” Swanepoel said in a statement. “Even Generation X has not yet really stepped up to the plate.”

Bohutinsky’s company on the list of top five Women Leaders includes Helen Hanna Casey, president of Hanna Holdings; Dorothy “Dottie” Herman, president and CEO of Douglas Elliman; Jill Jacobi Wood, president of Windermere; and Pamela O’Connor; president and CEO of Leading Real Estate Companies of the World.

Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate (president and CEO Sherry Chris), along with The Corcoran Group and ERA Franchise Systems all had female executive leadership that ranked in on the SP200’s top 50 overall.

New category: The 40-and-under crowd

Emerging Leaders, a fresh bonus addition to the SP200 this year, honored leaders aged 40 and under (as of December 31, 2016) who are making waves. Of the 20 mentioned, 19 are men.

Eleven people listed on the Emerging Leaders list also made the Power 200 main rankings, including:

Kuba Jewgieniew, Realty One Group founder and CEO (age 40; ranked No. 22)

Robert Reffkin, Compass co-founder and CEO (age 37; ranked No. 85)

Grier Allen, BoomTown founder and CEO (age 37; ranked No. 123)

Matthew “Matt” Barba, Placester founder and CEO (age 30; ranked No. 134)

Eric Wu, Opendoor co-foudner and CEO (age 34; ranked No. 139)

Nate Johnson, Move, Inc. CEO (age 40; ranked No. 146)

Ben Kinney, Ben Kinney Companies founder and CEO (age 38; ranked No. 163)

Austin Allison, dotloop GM (age 31; ranked No. 172);

Denee Evans, Council of Multiple Listing Services CEO (age 40; ranked No. 176)

Tyler Smith, Skyslope founder and CEO (age 33; ranked No. 184)

Mitchell Skinner, Larson Skinner managing partner (age 34; ranked No. 196)

Inman News earns honors

Finally, Inman publisher Brad Inman ranked at No. 34 on 2017’s SP200, while Inman editor-in-chief Amber Taufen was honored for the first time with a spot on the Trendsetters list.

Joe, George, James - sincerely, Jon Hammond Joe's wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Sample Joseph Leslie "Joe" Sample (February 1, 1939 – September 12, 2014) was an American pianist, keyboard player, and composer. He was one of the founding members of the Jazz Crusaders, the band which became simply the Crusaders in 1971, and remained a part of the group until its final album in 1991 (not including the 2003 reunion album Rural Renewal). Beginning in the 1970s, he enjoyed a successful solo career and guested on many recordings by other performers and groups, including Miles Davis, George Benson, Jimmy Witherspoon, B. B. King, Eric Clapton, Steely Dan, and the Supremes. Sample incorporated jazz, gospel, blues, Latin, and classical forms into his music. On September 12, 2014, Sample died in Houston, Texas, of mesothelioma at age 75. Birth name Joseph Leslie Sample Born February 1, 1939 Houston, Texas, U.S. Died September 12, 2014 (aged 75) Houston Genres Jazz Occupation(s) Musician, composer Instruments Piano, keyboards Years active 1950s–2014 Labels Blue Thumb, MCA, GRP, Warner Bros., Verve, ABC Associated acts Jazz Crusaders Joe Sample's Bio: "Sample was born in Houston, Texas on February 1, 1939. Sample began to play the piano at age 5. He was a student of the organist and pianist Curtis Mayo. In high school in the 1950s, Sample teamed up with friends saxophonist Wilton Felder and drummer "Stix" Hooper to form a group called the Swingsters. While studying piano at Texas Southern University, Sample met and added trombonist Wayne Henderson and several other players to the Swingsters, which became the Modern Jazz Sextet and then the Jazz Crusaders,[1] in emulation of one of the leading progressive jazz bands of the day, Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. Sample never took a degree from the university; instead, in 1960, he and the Jazz Crusaders made the move from Houston to Los Angeles. The group quickly found opportunities on the West Coast, making its first recording, Freedom Sounds in 1961 and releasing up to four albums a year over much of the 1960s. The Jazz Crusaders played at first in the dominant hard bop style of the day, standing out by virtue of their unusual front-line combination of saxophone (played by Wilton Felder) and Henderson's trombone. Another distinctive quality was the funky, rhythmically appealing acoustic piano playing of Sample, who helped steer the group's sound into a fusion between jazz and soul[2] in the late 1960s. The Jazz Crusaders became a strong concert draw during those years. While Sample and his band mates continued to work together, he and the other band members pursued individual work as well. In 1969 Sample made his first recording under his own name; Fancy Dance featured the pianist as part of a jazz trio.[1] In the 1970s, as the Jazz Crusaders became simply the Crusaders and branched out into popular sounds, Sample became known as a Los Angeles studio musician, appearing on recordings by the likes of Joni Mitchell, Marvin Gaye, Tina Turner, B. B. King, Joe Cocker, Minnie Riperton and Anita Baker. In 1975 he went into the studios with jazz legends Ray Brown on bass, and drummer Shelly Manne to produce a then state-of-the-art recording direct to disc entitled The Three. About this time Blue Note Records reissued some of the early work by the Jazz Crusaders as "The Young Rabbits". This was a compilation of their recordings done between 1962 and 1968. The electric keyboard was fairly new in the sixties, and Sample became one of the instrument's pioneers. He began to use the electric piano while the group retained their original name, and the group hit a commercial high-water mark with the hit single "Street Life" and the album of the same name in 1979. In 1978 he recorded Swing Street Café with guitarist David T. Walker. The Crusaders, after losing several key members, broke up after recording Life in the Modern World for the GRP label in 1987. Despite the disbanding of the Crusaders, the members would join each other to record periodically over the years, releasing Healing the Wounds in the early 1990s. Felder, Hooper, and Sample recorded their first album, called Rural Renewal, as the reunited Crusaders group in 2003 and played a concert in Japan in 2004. Since Sample's Fancy Dance (1969), he has recorded several solo albums, including the George Duke produced Sample This. GRP also released Joe Sample Collection, and a three-disc Crusaders Collection, as testament to Sample's enduring legacy. Some of the pianist's recent recordings are The Song Lives On (1999), featuring duets with singer Lalah Hathaway, and The Pecan Tree (2002), a tribute to his hometown of Houston, where he relocated in 1994. His 2004 album on Verve, Soul Shadows, paid tribute to Duke Ellington and Jelly Roll Morton, and pre-jazz bandleader James Reese Europe. In 2007 he recorded Feeling Good with vocalist Randy Crawford. In 1983, MCA released Joe Sample's The Hunter LP. The Hunter sessions had taken place during the previous year at Hollywood Sound Recorders and Salty Dog Studios in Los Angeles, producing a fine body of recordings of which six were brought forward. Fans believe there maybe other recordings from the sessions yet to be released. Amongst the six tracks was the nine-minute Night Flight. UK Jazz Funk and Soul DJ Robbie Vincent premiered Night Flight in its entirety in the spring of 1983 on his Radio London "Saturday Show" prompting a surge of jazz fusion enthusiasts and Sample fans to buy up all the import copies from London stores. For Sample, The Hunter album featured a number of leading musicians of the day including Marcus Miller on bass and Paulinho Da Costa on percussion. Sample was also joined on the album by Phil Upchurch on lead guitar, Dean Parks (also on guitar), Steve Gadd and Bob Wilson on drums, John Phillips on bass clarinet, and Abraham Laboriel on bass. For production, Joe Sample called on his Crusaders' stable mate Wilton Felder. The Hunter album came at a very important juncture in Sample's solo push. Night Flight remains the great achievement from these sessions, although fans were extremely disappointed when an edited version appeared on the compilation Joe Sample Collection.[citation needed] The Hunter album has been transferred to CD from the original tapes but fans are still awaiting a remastered expanded edition with previously unreleased material and demos. Sample appeared on stage at The Waterfront Hall, Belfast, Northern Ireland, on 28 May 2000, playing keyboard solo on George Benson's Deeper Than You Think. This concert was recorded and a DVD entitled George Benson: Absolutely Live was subsequently released. A studio version of Deeper Than You Think was recorded featuring Joe Sample in New York in May 1999 during sessions for a Benson collection which took the title Absolutely Benson. Fans again believe there may have been other collaborations of Sample - Benson which remain in the vaults unreleased. Some of his works were featured on The Weather Channel's "Local on the 8s" segments and his song "Rainbow Seeker" is included in their 2008 compilation release, The Weather Channel Presents: Smooth Jazz II. Nicole Kidman sang his song "One Day I'll Fly Away" in the Baz Luhrmann film Moulin Rouge! The very popular "In All My Wildest Dreams", also from the 1978 album Rainbow Seeker, was sampled on Tupac's "Dear Mama", De la Soul's "WRMS's Dedication to the Bitty", Toni Braxton's "What's Good" and Arrested Development's "Africa's Inside Me". Sample had a bassist son named Nicklas Sample (with ex-wife Marianne), who is a member of the Coryell Auger Sample Trio featuring Julian Coryell and Karma Auger. On September 12, 2014, Sample died in Houston, Texas from complications from mesothelioma lung disease.[3] He was 75 years old.[4] Sample had also suffered two heart attacks — the most recent in 2009. According to the Los Angeles Times he had also suffered illness caused by the Epstein-Barr virus, which produces chronic fatigue.[5] In 2013, Sample was hospitalized with pneumonia, according to Variety, the Hollywood and music industry trade paper."
