Stanley Morgan (born 10 November 1929 in Liverpool) is an English writer and actor. He writes fiction, in the comedy and thriller genres and has had more than 40 books published since 1968.
Originally an actor, Morgan had many jobs as a young man, including sewing machine salesman, debt collector and bank clerk. In 1951, Morgan emigrated to Canada where he spent some time working in the Bank of Nova Scotia. In 1955, he emigrated again, this time to Southern Rhodesia. He resumed his acting career there, and was sponsored to return to London after winning a Best Actor award. Upon returning to London, Morgan featured mostly in voice-overs, although he did have a small role in the James Bond film Dr. No playing the Concierge in the casino who first introduces Sean Connery as James Bond. Whilst between acting jobs in the late 1960s, Morgan began to write seriously and his first novel The Sewing Machine Man was published in 1968. Allegedly autobiographical, the novel revolved around the character Russ Tobin and Morgan has gone on to write a further 18 novels in the series. The latest of the Russ Tobin novels was published in 2005 after Morgan came out of retirement, mainly due to renewed interest in his work via the internet.
Stanley Douglas Morgan (born February 17, 1955) is a former NFL wide receiver who played for the New England Patriots and Indianapolis Colts.
Morgan played high school football at Easley High School in Easley, South Carolina. In 1972, his team won a state championship. Morgan went on to play college football for the University of Tennessee. Morgan was selected out of the University of Tennessee in the first round of the 1977 NFL Draft (25th overall). He holds the all-purpose yards record for the University of Tennessee, which stands at 4,642.
Morgan was one of the fastest receivers in the NFL early in his career and averaged over 20 yards per reception his first six seasons, with a career high 24.1 yards per reception in 1978. He led the NFL in yards per reception in 1979, 1980 and 1981.
Stanley topped 1,000 receiving yards three times (1979, 1981 & 1986). Morgan appeared in four Pro Bowls (1979, 1980, 1986 & 1987) and was selected 2nd Team All-Pro in 1980 & 1986. He finished his career with 557 receptions for 10,716 yards and 72 touchdowns, along with 121 rushing yards. His 10,352 receiving yards with the Patriots set their franchise record.
John Pierpont "J.P." Morgan (April 17, 1837 – March 31, 1913) was an American financier and banker who dominated corporate finance and industrial consolidation during his time. In 1892, Morgan arranged the merger of Edison General Electric and Thomson-Houston Electric Company to form General Electric. He was instrumental in the creation of the United States Steel Corporation.
At the height of Morgan's career during the early 1900s, he and his partners had financial investments in many large corporations and had significant influence over the nation's high finance and United States Congress members. He directed the banking coalition that stopped the Panic of 1907. He was the leading financier of the Progressive Era, and his dedication to efficiency and modernization helped transform American business.
Morgan died in Rome, Italy, in his sleep in 1913 at the age of 75, leaving his fortune and business to his son, John Pierpont Morgan, Jr.
Morgan was born into the influential Morgan family to Junius Spencer Morgan (1813–1890) and Juliet Pierpont (1816–1884) in Hartford, Connecticut, and was raised there. Pierpont, as he preferred to be known, had a varied education due in part to the plans of his father. In the fall of 1848, Pierpont transferred to the Hartford Public School and then to the Episcopal Academy in Cheshire, Connecticut (now called Cheshire Academy), boarding with the principal. In September 1851, Morgan passed the entrance exam for The English High School of Boston, a school specializing in mathematics to prepare young men for careers in commerce. In the spring of 1852, an illness struck which was to become more common as his life progressed. Rheumatic fever left him in so much pain that he could not walk, and Junius sent him to the Azores to recover.

Plot: Denise has been slaving away as an obit writer for the Tribune, dying for her chance to become a reporter. One of the tribune's writers has recently died of old age, and Denise jumps at the opportunity to take over his job, tactlessly hounding her boss, ROGER, in the midst of the funeral. That night, unable to sleep, Denise goes for a late-night jog...where she stumbles upon a dead body and promptly faints from the shock. When she comes to, amidst all the police activity, Denise spots SIMON, her rival and one-time lover, performing his new reporting duties. The next day, Denise's friend and coworker, LUKE, informs her of the name of last night's victim. Shocked, Denise realizes that she saw the deceased's obituary in a newspaper last night, before the time of death. But when she tries to track down the article, it's nowhere to be found. Soon, Denise's computer displays a mysterious message: another obit. But when she tries to print she ends up with blank paper, and the message erases itself. Sure enough, the next day the woman turns up dead. Denise knows she has no proof of what's happening to her, so she begins her own investigation.

Author, singer, and Vice Chairman of Morgan Stanley Wealth Management and Senior Client Advisor, Carla Harris gives an emotionally charged motivational talk in the form of a letter of life lessons to her 25 year old self. Carla opens the video singing “No matter what you’re up against, don’t give up, don’t give in.” She then begins reading the letter saying,” girl, own your power. Don’t ever let anyone take your power away or make you feel you can’t have an impact in the world just because they said so.” She then goes on to encourage her younger self to take risks and be fearless “because fear has no place in your success equation.” She packs more advice into this five minute video than a shelf full of self-help books.
