Tonya From Real World

New guide aims to offer real-world success strategies for working man

CAMERON, Wis. (MMD Newswire) July 11, 2011 -- "We Are Not Here on Rehearsal!" (ISBN 146109903X) by award-winning pharmacist Corey W. Jahnke shares the author's perspective on personal development and professional success for everyday working people.

According to Jahnke, many popular personal development books were written from the perspective of a millionaire. These books can make success seem out of reach to regular people, he argues, because in today's economy many people have lost hope and confidence. In contrast, Jahnke offers the viewpoint of someone who currently works full-time with real people in a customer service environment. Compiled from a 20-year pharmacy career and countless interactions with people of all backgrounds and levels of success, the book aims to share proven insights on how to add value and find meaning in life and work.

"In today's tough times, many people are wishing that their lives would improve, but few know where to begin," Jahnke says. "My book takes a gentle approach to walk people through the basics of how to use the power of today to get their lives going in a positive direction."

The book earned its title from a treasured anecdote told by Jahnke's Uncle Jean. Hoping to spend more time traveling in his retirement, Jean visited a campsite and shared his aspirations with an elderly camper. The camper asked him what he was waiting for - was he at the campsite on rehearsal? Intended to educate and inspire, the book offers commentary designed to empower readers to take charge of their lives and shape their own destinies.

"We Are Not Here on Rehearsal!" is available for sale online at Amazon.com and other channels.

MTV's 30th Birthday: An Update on MTV's Forgotten Stars | iCE KuLL

The daughter of Jefferson Starship’s Grace Slick and Paul Kantner, China was only fifteen years old when she started working as a VJ at MTV in the late 1980s. But after several years as a mini VJ, she was gone. Kantner dabbled in acting in the 1990s (eagle eyed fans caught her on “Home Improvement”), but later left showbiz to go to grad school, where she studied theology. Gag me with a spoon! More rock and roll offspring, Frank Zappa’s daughter (yes, the one of “Valley Girl” fame!), and her brother Dweezil were frequent guest VJs on MTV in the 1980s. These days Moon is an actress, writer and artist (her website showcases her work), and is married to Matchbox Twenty guitarist, Paul Doucette. Dweezil Zappa followed in his dad’s rock and roll footsteps, taking his classic “Apostrophe” album on tour–with a guest appearance by his big sis. MTV’s first foray into scripted sci-fi drama was short-lived with the series “Dead at 21,” but in 1994 it made actor Jack Noseworthy a familiar face on the network. That same year he appeared in Bon Jovi’s steamy “Always” video, further putting him on the MTV map. Noseworthy still works as a movie actor, most recently in the Bruce Willis flick, “Surrogates. ” The first season of MTV’s “Real World” featured seven strangers picked to live in a loft and have their lives taped. One of them was Andre, the pretty-boy lead singer of the band Reigndance. But while future “Real Worlders” extended their MTV fame by competing on “Real World Challenges” (Tonya and Paula, we’re looking at you!) Andre all but disappeared from the MTV universe. Comeau told Reality TV Magazine that when he was on “The Real World” he related more to the production crew than his housemates and that his exposure on the show didn’t exactly help his band (“MTV at that time was all about Nirvana, Pearl Jam and that scene,” he said. ) Today Comeau is still making music with his latest band, River Rouge. The supermodel may be best known for her sultry 1980s magazine spreads, but back in the early 90s Cindy Crawford actually hosted MTV’s premiere fashion show, “House of Style.
