Mary Jordan – Dodging Dementia: Understanding MCI and other risk factors – Second edition of The Essential Guide to Avoiding Dementia...with TRE's Selina MacKenzie
Kathryn interviews Author Mary Jordan.Many of us don't realize there are things we can do to mitigate the risk of dementia. Whether you have a close relative with dementia, a history of high-risk factors for this condition, or a diagnosis of MCI (mild cognitive impairment), you may be concerned to know how personally 'at risk' you or a loved one is, and what you can do to 'dodge' what is definitely not inevitable. Mary Jordan guides readers through the many factors associated with developing dementia and the science behind our current understanding including diet, exercise, trauma, pharmaceuticals, genetics, social isolation just to name a few. She is a director and founder of Adapt Dementia Ltd formed to help people find a better way to live with dementia. She has specific first hand experience of dementia through her work for Alzheimer's Society, a UK dementia charity and co-authored the award-winning:End of Life, The Essential Guide to Caring.Kathryn also interviews Author Jane Boulware.No one expected Jane Boulware, the scrappy girl from the cornfields of Iowa, who paid for college selling used carpet to become a leader of billion-dollar businesses and a top Microsoft executive. She now reflects on her unconventional path from poverty to success seamlessly blending humor, introspection and a fiery spirit. She confronts societal norms and the demanding realm of corporate America. Jane delves deep, sharing her triumphs, personal struggles, and battle with bulimia, all approached with genuine transparency and compassion. What truly sets this memoir apart is her perspective on success. For her, it's not about mere titles or individual milestones. It's about collaboration, 'reaching back to lift others,' and recognizing that true success is a collective journey. Jane has launched three billion-dollar businesses, been VP of the largest merger in the history of the US, forged global alliances and served on many boards including Boys and Girls Clubs.

In this episode, Sister Mary Jordan Hoover shares the story of how she was sent to Phoenix to lead a school that had not even been built yet. In 2016, she moved to Avondale, AZ after her order, the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia, received an invitation from Bishop Olmsted to staff and lead the brand new high school. St. John Paul Catholic High School was the only Catholic high school built in the United States that year. The commitment to Catholic education shown by the Diocese of Phoenix gave Sister Mary Jordan and three fellow Sisters the confidence to bring the vision of the school to life. In 2021, St. JPII just graduated its first class and thus was able to have its first homecoming game and dance. With 37 graduates all headed off to school in the fall, the list of successes grows. Sister Mary Jordan, who has been a principal in 5 dioceses, shares her perspective on starting from scratch, creating culture, and being able to provide scholarship assistance to families through tax credit contributions to STOs like CEA. The beauty of Arizona's tax credit legislation is that it makes Catholic education available to any family that wants it, not just the wealthy or elite. Catholic schools can be authentically Catholic because those who choose Catholic schools do so to bring Jesus Christ into the lives of their children every day. To learn more about the philosophy, charisms, culture, and curriculum of St. JPII Catholic School, check out this episode!

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for July 7, 2021 is: incumbent in-KUM-bunt noun 1 : the holder of an office or ecclesiastical benefice 2 : one that occupies a particular position or place Examples: "She also acknowledged a likelihood of having two relatively underfunded challengers take on the incumbent in a compressed election season with limited venues for campaigning." — Jeffrey S. Solochek, The Tampa Bay (Florida) Times, 12 June 2020 "The incumbents for the Fayetteville and Rogers school boards all secured their seats for another term, while another incumbent in Fort Smith was defeated, according to final, unofficial results from Tuesday's school election." — Mary Jordan and Thomas Saccente, The (Little Rock) Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, 19 May 2021 Did you know? When incumbent was first used in English in the 15th century, it referred to someone who occupied a benefice—a paid position in a church. This was often a lifetime appointment; the person could only be forced to leave the office in the case of certain specific legal conflicts. In the mid-17th century, incumbent came to refer to anyone holding any office, including elected positions. In the modern American political system, incumbent typically refers to someone who is the current holder of a position during an election for that position. The word also functions as an adjective with its most common meanings being "occupying a specified office" ("the incumbent mayor") and "obligatory" ("it is incumbent upon us to help"). Incumbent came to English through Anglo-French and derives from the Latin incumbere, meaning "to lie down on."
Pulitzer Prize-winning American journalist Mary Jordan talks about the Biden Inauguration
Pozdravljeni, tokrat z druge strani Atlantika, iz Washingtona, ki tedne in mesece, sploh pa zadnje dni, vzbuja nenavadne, nasprotujoče si občutke. Po eni strani je ameriško glavno mesto izjemno umirjeno, prazno, a pod to površino vre. Jeza, zavračanje, tesnoba, strah pred ponovitvijo prizorov, ki so Ameriko pretresli 6. januarja, ko je množica podpornikov odhajajočega predsednika Donalda Trumpa vdrla v poslopje kongresa na Kapitolskem griču. V sredo je predstavniški doma ameriškega kongresa, tudi s simbolično republikansko podporo, Donalda Trumpa drugič ustavno obtožil. Predsednik, ki je ves čas poudarjal svojo izjemnost v ameriški zgodovini, je dejansko zasedel posebno mesto: še nikoli se ni noben ameriški predsednik z ustavno obtožbo soočil dvakrat. Kdo bi lahko bil ob takšni priložnosti primernejši sogovornik od soavtorja knjige o prvi ustavni obtožbi Trump na preizkušnji (Trump On Trial), ki je izšla lani jeseni, tik pred ameriškimi volitvami? Novinarski tandem Washington Posta Kevin Sullivan in Mary Jordan, zakonski par, ki je deloval tudi kot dopisniški tandem tega časopisa iz Londona, Tokia in Mexico Cityja in skupaj napisal nekaj knjig, leta 2003 pa sta prejela tudi Pulitzerjevo nagrado za mednarodno poročanje, sodi v krog mojih washingtonskih znancev. Zgolj v pojasnilo, če boste začutili nekoliko večjo bližino s sogovornikom od običajne, čeprav smo v prevodu ohranili vikalno obliko. Moje ime je Andrej Stopar, vesel sem, da se lahko na Valu 202 spet pojavim v vlogi voditelja pogovora, ki je sicer nastal tik pred glasovanjem v kongresu. To, kar je izrečeno v prihodnjiku, se je popolnoma potrdilo, kar ne kaže le na predvidljivost dogajanja, ampak tudi na sogovornikovo dobro poznavanje materije.

TRUMP ON TRIAL: The Investigation, Impeachment, Acquittal and Aftermath by Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post journalists Kevin Sullivan and Mary Jordan, in collaboration with The Post staff. Anchored in fresh reporting and interviews from Washington and abroad, the book offers a richly detailed, fast-paced narrative of what happened and why as Donald Trump faced only the third presidential impeachment trial in U.S. history. Among the book’s many revelatory scenes: A split-screen account of Trump’s fateful July 25, 2019 telephone call with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, with a senior Zelensky adviser passing him notes as the conversation drifts in the direction that aides on both sides had feared. Deeply reported and character-driven, TRUMP ON TRIALis the first and most definitive portrayal yet of the forces at work in this historic confrontation. The book is also an intimate and immersive study of political power: the people who have it, use it, and abuse it. Among the book’s many compelling storylines is the personal feud between Nancy Pelosi, the highest-ranking elected woman in American history, and Trump, the president who engaged in a relentless social media campaign to rail against the investigation that threatened his presidency and his ambition of a second term. About the Authors Kevin Sullivan and Mary Jordan are Pulitzer Prize–winning journalists for The Washington Post. A married couple, they were based abroad for fourteen years as the Post’s co–bureau chiefs in Tokyo, Mexico City, and London. Sullivan writes about national and international issues. Jordan is a national political correspondent. They are the coauthors of the #1 New York Times bestseller Hope: A Memoir of Survival in Cleveland and The Prison Angel: Mother Antonia's Journey from Beverly Hills to a Life of Service in a Mexican Jail. Jordan is also the author of The Art of Her Deal: The Untold Story of Melania Trump. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/steve-richards/support

Trump on Trial: The Investigation, Impeachment, Acquittal and Aftermath by Kevin Sullivan, Mary Jordan A compelling and masterful account, based on fresh reporting, of the investigation, impeachment, and acquittal of President Donald Trump, a ferocious political drama that challenged American democracy itself. In the spring of 2019, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi did not favor pursuing Trump’s impeachment. Her view was: “He’s just not worth it.” But by September, after a whistleblower complaint suggesting that Trump had used his office for his political benefit, Pelosi decided to risk it. The impeachment inquiry led to charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, a gamble that ultimately meant Trump would be the first impeached president on the ballot in US history. Pulitzer Prize–winning Washington Post reporters Kevin Sullivan and Mary Jordan have crafted a powerful, intimate narrative that concentrates on the characters as well as the dramatic events, braiding them together to provide a remarkable understanding of what happened and why. Drawing on the deep reporting of Post journalists as well as new interviews, Sullivan and Jordan deliver a crisp page-turner with exquisite detail and scenes. They put readers in the room for both sides of the now-famous phone call between Trump and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky on July 25, 2019, revealing the in-the-moment reactions of those listening to the call in Washington, as well as the tension in Kyiv, as aides passed notes to Zelensky while he was talking to Trump. Sullivan and Jordan deftly illuminate the aims and calculations of key figures. Pelosi’s evolution from no to yes. Trump’s mounting fury as “the I-word” became inevitable. Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell firmly telling Trump on the phone about the Senate trial: You need to trust me. Trump on Trial teems with unexpected moments. House member Elissa Slotkin, a Michigan Democrat, alone at the National Archives, walking amid the nation’s founding documents, weighing her vote on impeachment. Fiery Republican congressman Matt Gaetz of Florida, a favorite Trump warrior, deciding to lead the storming of the secure room in the US Capitol basement, where witnesses were testifying. The authors paint vivid portraits of the men and women branded by the president’s supporters as foes from the “deep state”: Ukraine experts Fiona Hill and Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman; ambassadors Marie Yovanovitch and William Taylor. The narrative spools out amid Trump’s nonstop tweeting and the infinite echo chamber of social media, which amplified both parties’ messages in ways unknown during past impeachments. Sullivan and Jordan, aided by editor Steve Luxenberg, follow the story into the aftermath of Trump’s acquittal and the president’s payback for those whom he believed had betrayed him. The retributions took place as the nation reeled from a devastating pandemic and widespread protests about racial injustice, with another trial looming: the 2020 election.

Politični vpliv se meri z različnimi vatli. Pogosto so vplivni ljudje, od katerih tega niti ne bi pričakovali. Združene države Amerike imajo izjemno zadržano, skrivnostno prvo damo. Podobno kot s političnim vplivom je tudi s skrivnostnostjo. Zmeraj se postavi vprašanje, kaj je zadaj in skrito. O Slovenki in Američanki številka ena pogosto govorijo, da živi v zlati kletki, da ne mara javnosti in izpostavljanja. Dolgoletna novinarka časopisa The Washington Post, Pulitzerjeva nagrajenka Mary Jordan, na prvo damo gleda popolnoma drugače. V svoji novi knjigi »Umetnost njenega načina - Še ne povedana zgodba Melanie Trump« jo opisuje kot hladnokrvno, inteligentno in preračunljivo žensko, ki dobro ve, kaj hoče, in kako to doseči, pa tudi žensko, katere zlasti kadrovski presoji predsednik Združenih držav Amerike zelo zaupa. Kot zatrjuje Mary Jordan, je v Beli hiši najnevarnejše mesto, na katerem se lahko znajde tam zaposleni, na muhi Melanie Trump. Z Mary Jordan se je pogovarjal dopisnik iz Washingtona Andrej Stopar.

Rund 130 Tage sind es noch bis zur US-Präsidentschaftswahl – und die Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika sind so zerrissen wie kaum je zuvor. Neben Pandemie und Wirtschaftskrise spalten Verschwörungstheoretiker das Land, soziale Ungleichheit und der durch den Mord an dem Schwarzen George Floyd wiederbelebte Rassismuskonflikt erschüttern das Vertrauen der Bürger in ihre Regierung zusätzlich. Aber was genau bedeutet das für Trumps Hoffnungen auf eine Wiederwahl? Gelingt es seinem Herausforderer Joe Biden, die Unzufriedenheit vieler Bürger in Zuspruch für die Demokraten umzumünzen und seinen aktuellen Vorsprung in den Umfragen weiter auszubauen? Darf die Welt darauf hoffen, dass die USA nach November wieder zu einem verlässlichen Partner werden? Darüber sprechen wir mit ZEIT-Autor Klaus Brinkbäumer, der die multiplen Krisen der USA aus seiner Wahlheimat New York beobachtet und Co-Moderator des Podcasts Ok, America ist. In „Das Politikteil“ sprechen wir über Politik – was sie antreibt, was sie anrichtet, was sie erreichen kann: jeden Freitag mit zwei Moderatoren, einem Gast und einem Geräusch. Im Wechsel sind als Gastgeber Ileana Grabitz und Marc Brost sowie Tina Hildebrandt und Heinrich Wefing zu hören. Literaturhinweis – im Podcast sprechen wir diesmal unter anderem über diese Bücher: "Trump gegen die Demokratie" (Originaltitel: "A very stable genius"), Carol Leonnig/Philip Rucker. "The Room where it happened" (voraussichtlicher Erscheinungstermin 23. Juni 2020), John Bolton. "The Art of Her Deal: The Untold Story of Melania Trump", Mary Jordan. "Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man" (voraussichtlicher Erscheinungstermin 11. August 2020), Mary L. Trump.
關於書中的部分内容,請參考兩天前在本頁面發出的文稿。這集節目重點談總統和夫人性格相似的地方。 順便提一下,很多人認爲川普的樣子很像比他大5嵗的岳父。 同時也介紹了書的作者Mary Jordan 。不知道改名會不會改運。但第一夫人20多嵗的時候,在歐洲從事模特工作,改過一次姓。第一夫人沉默寡言。川普當選總統的第一年,她有8次公開講話。奧巴馬的太太做第一夫人的第一年,講話74次。川普的女兒給後母起外號“肖像”,意思是,她像挂在墻上的畫,從不講話。關於她是怎麽認識地產商人川普的,之前的説法也有誤。儘管有些“八卦”,也是值得聼一下的。

Are you swimming in zucchini yet? Emily Seftel, of The Tennessean, wrote an article in 2006 that was titled Gad zuks!- which I think is hilarious; we don’t use that term enough, do we? Anyway, the article started out this way: "Zucchini, the summer squash, is the Rodney Dangerfield of the produce world it gets no respect." Then, the article goes on to share some recipes, which were offered by Chef Laura Slama who said, "When you’re cooking with zucchini, all you need to do is add a little olive oil and kosher salt to bring out it’s flavor." The three recipes she shared, were for Mexican Zucchini Corn and Black Tostadas - that looked amazing. Then, Sautéed Zucchini Strings; which is basically zucchini that’s been turned into spaghetti. And, finally, she shared an Orzo Pasta with Roasted Zucchini. One of my favorite recipes for zucchini is from The New Zucchini Cookbookand Other Squashby Nancy Ralston and Mary Jordan. It’s for a zucchini basil tart: You drain salted zucchini and tomato slices on paper towels. You purée basil in a food processor with ricotta and eggs and you add mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Then you line a 9 inch pie shell with zucchini slices. Spoon the basil mixture over the top and then put tomato slices on the top. Then brush the whole top of it with olive oil and bake it for 40 to 50 minutes. Yum. I’ll put the link to the recipes in today show notes as well as a link to the cookbook. Brevities #OTDToday is the birthday of Magness Holman who was born in 1745. Holman was the painter who completed a portrait of Carla Ness that most people recognize. The portrait was painted around 1780. #OTD Today is the birthday of François-Andre Michaux. He was the son of the botanist Andrea Michaux. His father named an oak in his honor. Michaux's mother died a few weeks after he was born. His father was so despondent, he turned to botany to deal with his grief. His mentors just happened to be some of the top gardeners in the Royal Gardens. When François-Andre was 15 years old, he accompanied his dad to North America. His father established a botanical garden in 1786 on property that’s now occupied by the Charleston Area National Airport. As you leave the airport, you’ll notice a stunning mural that pays tribute the Michaux's - from the rice fields along the Ashley River to the Charleston Harbor where he introduced one of the first camellia plants. Andre-François and his father are depicted in the potager or kitchen garden. The mural was installed in 2016. François-Andre stayed in America where he established a nursery in Hackensack, New Jersey and also in Charleston, South Carolina. France was still eager to obtain trees from North America to replenish their forests and François-Andre grew them in his nursery. He returned to France briefly in 1790 and participated in the French revolution. By 1801, he returned to the United States because the French government wanted him to get rid of the nurseries in Hackensack and Charleston. François-Andre did as instructed and also explored the United States as far north as Maine, as far south as Georgia, and as far west as the Great Lakes. After his explorations, he returned to France, he had enough material and experience to prepare his masterpiece, North American Silva or North American Forests. #OTD Today in 1805, the Lewis and Clark expedition was near the Narrows of the Columbia river when the serviceberry was discovered. Serviceberry are available in a number of different species. There’s a wonderful graphic showing the different types of serviceberry featured on the spruce.com. I'll share a link to that in today's show notes. Serviceberries are a member of the Rose family. Now that you know that, you’ll be able to recognize the family resemblance the next time you see one. Serviceberry are primarily prized for their four-season interest: you get beautiful blossoms in the spring, fruits in the summer, fantastic autumn color, and wonderful bark coloration in the winter time. The Maryland Department of Resources says that the etymology of the name serviceberry comes from church services which resumed around Easter time. People used to say that when the serviceberries were in flower, the ground had thawed enough to dig a grave. #OTD Today is the birthday of the third son of Charles Darwin, Francis Darwin - known to his family as Frank. Francis published the results of his work with his dad in a book called The Movement of Plants. The book details their experiments which showed that young grass seedlings grow toward the light. OTD It’s the anniversary of the death of Kenneth Woodbridge, who died on this day in 1988. Woodbridge was known for his work on the history of garden design in England and France. Woodbridge wrote a book called The Stourhead Landscape, a book about one of England’s greatest gardens. Stourhead was the work of an English banker named Henry Hoare who lived during much of the 1700s. Woodbridge's last book was called Princely Gardens it was published in 1986. Princely Gardens analyzes the French formal style of landscape architecture. Despite not having the academic background of many garden historians, Woodbridge was a relentless researcher and writer. His obituary stated that his wife Joanne always balanced his intensity. Unearthed Words “August rain: the best of the summer gone, and the new fall not yet born. The odd uneven time.” ― Sylvia Plath “This morning, the sun endures past dawn. I realize that it is August: the summer's last stand.” ― Sara Baume, A Line Made by Walking “The month of August had turned into a griddle where the days just lay there and sizzled.” ― Sue Monk Kidd, The Secret Life of Bees Today's book recommendation: Plant Parenting by Leslie Halleck This is a new book that just came out in June of this year from Timberpress. The images are gorgeous and this book feels quite modern and very on trend. This is a very beginner friendly introduction to plants, flowers, and seeds. Today's Garden Chore Add more color to your garden with bee balm or monarda. It is also an herb. Plant it in full sun. Pollinators love it, as do hummingbirds. I remember the first time I planted bee balm, I was blown away by the incredible enticing fragrance - a wonderful combination of mint, oregano, and thyme. Once you smell it, you'll never forget it. Bee Balm starts flowering now and will last throughout the summer. When John Bartram was exploring North America, he made contact with the Native Americans who shared with him that they brewed a tea with bee balm to treat chills and fever. He called it Oswego. But, it was made with Monarda. After the Boston tea party, the colonists needed something to drink and Oswego tea tasted pretty good and it also helped with sore throat’s and headaches. Manarda is considered both a flower and an herb. And in the fall, you can harvest the leaves and dry them and store them for later - when you want to make your own Oswego tea. Something Sweet Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart When I was researching Kenneth Woodbridge, I ran across an article about his son, Tim Woodbridge. The article came out last year in February in the London Economic and it was called, "The incredible story of how a grieving landowner created one of Europe’s most celebrated gardens." Tim was piggybacking on the subject his dad wrote about which was Stourhead Garden in Wiltshire. Tim says his dad discovered 95% of everything that is known about the garden today. The garden is breathtaking because it is surrounding this gloriously breathtaking man-made lake. All along people have assumed that the lake was part of the plan by Henry Hoare, the banker, who established the garden as his lasting legacy. But Tim believes he’s uncovered a secret about the garden that had been lost to time. In 2005, the National Trust commissioned an underwater survey of the lake. Tim’s book, called The Choice, explains that the lake is hiding a first garden – the garden that was built to honor Hoare's dead wife, Susan. The garden was nearly completed when suddenly Hoare's son and only heir, Henry, died of smallpox in Naples. He was just 22 years old. Tim believes that the garden became too painful and that Hoare's shocking next move was to do something about it. Tim believes that Hoare built a dam and then flooded the garden; creating the magnificent great lake that people drive to see from all over the world. Instead of a planned part of the design; The lake was an outward sign of grief of a husband and father whose tears hid the garden he had built for posterity. And I think, if a garden could cry... this is what it would look like. Thanks for listening to the daily gardener, and remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

As a dementia specialist, Mary's experience of death and the final stage of life became quite vast. By chance, she met Judy Carole Kauffmann, a specialist in end of life management, and together they wrote the award-winning book ‘The End of Life: The Essential Guide to Caring'. Mary sees that everyone's experience of death and grief is different. When somebody dies, you're in shock. Even if you've been expecting it. And when you're in shock you behave differently from other times. However, Mary also sees people opening up and being able to discuss death. She discusses the most important things we can do to help someone approaching the end of their life to gain peace of mind. Which sometimes means having those difficult conversations. You can listen to Mary's interview here on episode 032 The Retirement Café Podcast.
Mary believes that dementia wouldn't be so difficult if society dealt with it better. We tend to distance people with dementia, out of fear or a lack of knowledge of how to deal with people. If they were made to feel a continued part of society, maybe people with dementia would live a happier life? Mary Jordan has worked in the dementia field for many years, initially as a Dementia Support Worker for the Alzheimer's Society. She qualified to deliver the Alzheimer's Society CrisP programme and knows that dementia could come to any of us. In her most recent book, The D-Word: Rethinking Dementia, Mary and her co-author Dr Noel Collins explain how society being more gentle on people with dementia could enable them to continue to contribute to society. She discusses her thoughts in episode 028 of The Retirement Café Podcast. Mary co-founded AdaptDementia Ltd to allow families living with dementia to be better informed and to have a wide choice of support. AdaptDementia provides information, training and support for care professionals, people with dementia and family carers wanting to know more about dementia and how to adapt themselves and their environment to the challenges it brings.
