Stuttering Foundation Marks 75th Anniversary, International Stuttering Awareness Day with New Resources

The Stuttering Foundation

October 22 nd is International Stuttering Awareness Day (ISAD), observed worldwide with a focus on stuttering--a speech disorder characterized by repetition of sounds, syllables, or words; prolongation of sounds; and interruptions in speech known as blocks. This year also marks the 75 th Anniversary of the Stuttering Foundation, founded by the late entrepreneur and philanthropist Malcolm Fraser in 1947, making it the first and largest nonprofit charitable organization in the world working toward the prevention and improved treatment of stuttering. The Foundation is renowned globally for its trusted and timely resources--many available free on its website: StutteringHelp.org. To mark its 75 th anniversary and in observance of International Stuttering Awareness Day, the Stuttering Foundation officially raised its estimate of people who stutter to 80 million people --representing one percent (1%) of the global population. “When my father Malcolm founded the Stuttering Foundation back in 1947, there were an estimated 25 million people who stutter across the globe,” said Jane Fraser, president of the Stuttering Foundation and Malcolm’s daughter. “Today, we raise our estimate to 80 million people who stutter worldwide, more than three times the number from when we began. Over the decades, we’ve expanded our outreach and added many resources for people in more than 137 countries around the world.” The Stuttering Foundation marked the auspicious occasions with the release of: Ask the Stuttering Foundation --This new YouTube channel addresses the dozens of inquiries received by the Foundation daily by telephone, email, and generated on our website. Some of the queries are more common such as parents who are concerned when their preschoolers begin to stutter, or people who stutter of any age reaching out to learn from others who also stutter. Some requests are less common such as pediatricians or speech-language pathologists looking for help for patients with specific needs. Whatever the content, we respond to meet the needs of people who stutter around the globe. For Kids By Kids 2.0 --This lively and engaging 10-minute video features interviews with real students who stutter, speaking opening about their stutter, dealing with teasing, sharing what helps them, and showing how to teach others about stuttering. An animated skateboarder named Kyle narrates the film. The ABCs of Stuttering --This 10-minute video helps parents and teachers understand how stuttering can affect children of all ages in the classroom and is now available for free on the Stuttering Foundation’s YouTube channel. The highlight of the video is the students--Umberto, Kate and Martin--talking openly about their stutter and what helps make them feel more comfortable talking in the classroom. “For more than seven decades, the Stuttering Foundation has served as a trusted resource for the stuttering community, offering brochures, e-books, podcasts, videos, a magazine, virtual learning sessions and multiple social media channels to spread timely and accurate information about stuttering,” added Fraser. About the Stuttering Foundation Malcolm Fraser, a successful businessman who struggled with stuttering, established the nonprofit Stuttering Foundation in 1947 and endowed it throughout his lifetime. The Foundation provides free online resources at StutteringHelp.org for people who stutter and their families, as well as support for research into the causes of stuttering.

Study: Is Digital Nomadism the New Work Non-Negotiable?

MBO Partners

A new study from MBO Partners® shows that digital nomadism is the number one work trend that employers can no longer ignore. Digital nomadism, a term referencing workers who embrace a location-independent, technology-enabled lifestyle that allows them to travel and work remotely, has grown by 131% from the pre-pandemic year 2019. Today, 16.9 million American workers describe themselves as digital nomads. Traditional workers are the fastest-growing segment embracing this style of work. The number of digital nomads with traditional corporate jobs increased by 9% in 2022, growing from 10.2 million in 2021 to 11.1 million this year. "The massive rise in digital nomads is just one more sign that the workforce of yesterday is gone for good,"said Miles Everson, CEO, MBO Partners. "The 'work from anywhere' trend is here to stay, and employers must take note that the power is in the hands of the worker, not the employer or client. To embrace this strong and growing population of nearly 17 million workers, look beyond the if and into the how – create and enforce a documented nomad policy, and consider how to engage flexible, blended talent teams that engage for purpose and outcomes." The report revealed several key insights about this fast-growing segment of the American workforce, including: Out of the office, into the world. The number of digital nomads with traditional jobs increased by 9% in 2022, growing from 10.2 million in 2021 to 11.1 million in 2022. In fact, since the start of the pandemic, the number of digital nomads with traditional jobs has more than tripled. Taking a page from the retiree's handbook, digital nomads seek out locations with lower costs of living and favorable amenities. No plans to quiet quit. Eighty-one percent of digital nomads report being highly satisfied, and 11% are satisfied with their work and lifestyle. Only 3% were dissatisfied. This compares to 68% of non-digital nomads reporting being highly satisfied and 14% satisfied with their work and lifestyle. Interestingly, in terms of politics, digital nomads skew heavily Democratic (51%) vs. Republicans (23%) and Independents (23%). VanLife is not out of gas. VanLifers, digital nomads who travel, live and work in RVs, vans, or other vehicles converted into roaming residences, were the fastest-growing digital nomad segment, increasing 19% in 2022 and reaching 3.1 million. Digital nomad villages offer support. A growing support industry is making it easier to be a successful digital nomad, whether it be providing products like cross-border health insurance to assist digital nomads or digital nomad villages like Nomad Village Brazil and Digital Nomad Valley Zadar, Croatia that provide a community and infrastructure to be productive. The top challenges reported by digital nomads are personal safety (34%), being away from family and friends (32%), and managing work and travel (25%). The new Dreamers: Armchair Nomads. Despite aspirations, only 8-11% of those who express interest in the nomadic lifestyle will actually make the leap in the next 2-3 years. A growing group of "armchair digital nomads" will live the life through the experiences of others vs. becoming nomads themselves. The convergence of remote work and technological improvements have been key drivers in accelerating the digital nomad trend. While the pandemic forced a change in physical work locations, it ignited an industry to support this holistic change of remote work. It was not a giant leap for workers to go from working from home to working from anywhere that technology allowed. As evidenced by summer air travel, our appetite for travel has not diminished. Even as work requirements shift from fully remote to hybrid or in-office, digital nomadism will not be grounded. Many factors will continue to drive the growth of this trend, such as cities and countries competing to attract digital nomads, improvement in remote work technology, and companies creating digital nomad policies. MBO Partners will release the full 2022 State of Independence study in November 2022. To obtain a copy of the brief, please visit www.mbopartners.com/state-of-independence/digital-nomads. About MBO Partners® MBO Partners is a deep job platform that connects and enables independent professionals and microbusiness owners to do business safely and effectively with enterprise organizations. Its unmatched experience and industry leadership enable it to operate on the forefront of the independent economy and consistently advance the next way of working.

Are You Paying Too Much for Your Medicare Plan?

YourUpdateTV

October 15 marked the start of the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period — a time for Medicare-eligible people to choose the plan that best supports their unique needs and budget. Recently, Vice President of Aetna Medicare Bob O’Connor, participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss what you need to know for thisAnnual Enrollment Period. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/jriqOx0-9pc With the national inflation rate at an all-time high since the 1980s, it’s more important than ever for older adults, who are often on a fixed income, to evaluate their individual health care needs and choose a Medicare plan that best supports those needs in a cost-effective way. The 2022 Health Care Insights Study by CVS Health found that 90 percent of providers said cost of care is a top concern for their 65-and-older patients. Medicare can be confusing because there are a lot of different options out there. And if you’re around Medicare age, your mailbox will soon be flooded with Medicare plan letters, postcards and ads. Think about what’s important to you and ask yourself some basic questions, like does the plan fit your budget and does your plan cover your doctors, hospitals, and pharmacies? Another important thing to consider is prescription drugs. Are there prescription drugs you take regularly? Does the plan’s drug list cover those prescriptions? It’s also important to know what tier your prescription drugs are on or whether there are any coverage rules. The first thing people should do is go to the Medicare.gov website. Once there, they can enter their zip code and see all the Medicare plans available in their area. And of course, you can learn more about 2023 Aetna Medicare plans at AetnaMedicare.com or call us at 1-844-588-0041 (TTY: 711), 7 days a week, 8 AM to 8 PM. The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period runs from October 15 through December 7, 2022. A licensed agent may answer your call. About Bob O’Connor As Vice President of Aetna Medicare and community volunteer for organizations focused on seniors and the disabled, Bob O’Connor brings a unique perspective to the Medicare conversation. He’s worked in several roles at Aetna in support of seniors and currently oversees member experience, quality and business strategy for Aetna’s robust portfolio of Medicare Advantage plans. An advocate for the aging population, Bob is passionate about improving health care and helping Aetna’s more than 10.6 million Medicare members nationwide achieve their best health.

Rembrandt’s Famous Masterpiece Available In 8,000 Pieces (NFTs)

Curzon PR

Now, everyone has the opportunity to own a digital piece of one of Rembrandt’s most celebrated works, The Night Watch (1642). The painting has been divided into 8,000 pieces, which are available in the form of NFTs (non-fungible tokens) — a digital certificate of ownership. Not only will the sale of NFTs be a milestone step in making Rembrandt ownership accessible for all, but owners will also be granted exclusive access to the new, and soon to be open, MetaRembrandt Museum — the only place in the world where all the paintings of Rembrandt van Rijn can be found remastered, digitally restored to their original state, and in high definition. The Night Watch NFT initiative is the result of a collaboration between the Rembrandt Heritage Foundation and blockchain innovators HODL Finance. It was announced on the first anniversary of the death of world-renowned Rembrandt expert, Professor Dr Ernst van de Wetering, who worked tirelessly to preserve Rembrandt's collection and make it accessible for current and future generations. Professor van de Wetering made his life’s work to trace, authenticate and preserve all of Rembrandt’s works. His legacy with The Rembrandt Heritage Foundation was to have Rembrandt’s full art collection digitised and remastered, ensuring it remains immortalised. He even recreated the pieces from The Night Watch that were cut off in 1715 and feared lost forever. Jess Muntenaar, COO at HODL Finance, said: “We are proud that together with The Rembrandt Heritage Foundation, we have digitally reconstructed and captured Rembrandt’s paintings in high definition, and made them accessible to everyone through blockchain ownership. Digitising art is not a replacement for the real thing, but rather a way to preserve art, make it available to everyone, and ensure that Rembrandt will always be there for future generations.” NFTs cannot be copied, replaced or subdivided, ensuring absolute security and authenticity. Every NFT is recorded in a database (a blockchain) and can be stored for as long as the owner wishes, or sold. An owner of one of the 8,000 pieces of the Night Watch automatically becomes a founder of the MetaRembrandt Museum. Founders have lifetime access to the museum, and can also ‘rent out’ their NFT, which not only provides a return on investment, but also gives other art lovers the opportunity to gain access to this highly exclusive digital venue. Pim Slager, co-founder of The Rembrandt Heritage Foundation, says: "The MetaRembrandt Museum is the only place where people can view all the paintings of Rembrandt together and in high definition. I feel honoured that we can now share the life's work of Rembrandt van Rijn with the whole world." For more information and to register to own a piece of The Night Watch, visit www.metarembrandt.com.
