@santhipoma lmfaooooooooo
@bunniesandbeheadings @ladygoatee you guys can split the difference and meet in the middle!
Marian Young, Brigham Young's last surviving grandchild, died in 2004, 203 years after her grandfather was born and 127 years after his death. She was born in 1899, and there were actually several younger grandchildren, but Marian lived to be 105 (good for her!), so she was the last one left.
Marian was the second-youngest child of Brigham Young Jr., which is interesting because he was actually the fourth-oldest of the 57 Young children, born when Brigham Sr. was 35. But like his father, and unlike almost all of his significantly younger brothers, he had children late in life because of a polygamist marriage to a much younger woman. So he was 62 when Marian was born.
Brigham Sr.'s youngest grandchild, as far as I can tell, was perhaps predictably the youngest child of his youngest child, Richard Clayton, who was born in 1910. Richard's mom was Fanny Young Clayton, who was born in 1870, when her father was 68 years old. Of the eight surviving Young children born after 1860, seven were female, which cuts down on their ability to have kids at an advanced age like Brigham Jr. did.
So both Marian and Richard were born around a century after their grandfather, but in both cases there was only one person in that line who had children at an unusually late age. (And Marian also just lived for a really long time.)
On the other hand, as @bunniesandbeheadings mentioned, US President John Tyler, who was born in 1790 (even older than Brigham Young!) has a living grandson, which is even crazier. This is because in the Tyler family tree there were two generations of men having kids insanely late. John Tyler's son Lyon was born in 1853, when he was 63 years old, and then Lyon's son Harrison, who is still alive, was born in 1928, when Lyon was 75. (These are both situations where their first wives died and they remarried much younger women and had second families).
So that's two generations of elderly fathers + Harrison himself living well into his 90s, 230 years after his grandfather was born. Which is categorically insane!
mormonposting trivia. what year did brigham young's last living grandchild die?

Clayton Christensen, Guru of ‘Disruptive Innovation,’ Dies at 67
Clayton M. Christensen, a professor at Harvard Business School whose groundbreaking 1997 book, “The Innovator’s Dilemma,” outlined his theories about the impact of what he called “disruptive innovation” on leading companies and catapulted him to superstar status as a management guru, died on Thursday at a hospital in Boston. He was 67.The cause was complications of leukemia, Nitin Nohria, the dean of the school, said in a statement.“The Innovator’s Dilemma,” which The Economist called one of the six most important business books ever written, was published during the technology boom of the late 1990s. It trumpeted Professor Christensen’s assertion that the factors that helped the best companies succeed — listening responsively to customers, investing aggressively in technology products that satisfied customers’ next-generation needs — were the exact same reasons some of these companies failed.These corporate giants were so focused on doing the very things that had been taught for generations at the nation’s top business schools, he wrote, that they were blindsided by small, fast-moving, innovative companies that were able to enter markets nimbly with disruptive products and services and grab large chunks of market share. By laying out a blueprint for how executives could identify and respond to these disruptive forces, Professor Christensen, himself an entrepreneur and former management consultant, struck a chord with high-tech corporate leaders.Image

Clayton Christensen, author of “The Innovator’s Dilemma,” has passed away at age 67
Clayton Christensen, a longtime professor at Harvard Business School who became famous worldwide after authoring the best-selling business book, “The Innovator’s Dilemma: When New Technologies Cause Great Firms to Fail,” passed away last night.
The Desert News reported earlier today that the cause tied to complications from leukemia treatments that Christensen was receiving in Boston. He was 67 years old.
Clayton had suffered from ill health for years, always battling his way back. By the age of 58, Clayton — who was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at age 30 — had already suffered a heart attack, cancer, and a stroke, telling Forbes in 2011 that he tried to view such setbacks as opportunities, even, apparently, when they involved intensive speech therapy, which he was undergoing at the time.
Indeed, the entire business world came to know Christensen after Intel cofounder Andy Grove brought him into the company as an advisor, then announced to the world that “The Innovator’s Dilemma,” published in 1997, was the best book he’d read in 10 years. (This was saying something, given Grove’s own considerable writing skills.) Yet Christensen came from modest means.
According to a 2012 profile in New Yorker magazine, he grew up on the “wrong side of the tracks” in Salt Lake City, in a Mormon household, collecting paper tray liners from fast food restaurants, and stuffing his 6′ 8″ frame into a 1986 Chevy Nova that he drove around town.
According to the profile, Christensen, an excellent student and a popular one (he was student body president), “wanted to go to Harvard or Yale, and got into both, but his mother wanted him to go to Brigham Young. Not knowing what to do, he fasted and prayed, and he discovered that God agreed with his mother. That wasn’t the answer he was looking for, so he fasted and prayed some more, just to make sure he hadn’t misheard or something, but he hadn’t, so he went to Brigham Young.”
There, he studied economics before and after a two-year leave of absence to serve as a volunteer full-time missionary for the LDS Church. Then it was off to Oxford, where he earned a master’s as a Rhodes Scholar, then Harvard Business School. After receiving his MBA, he landed at Boston Consulting Group, and after a few years in the working world, headed back to Harvard for a PhD so he could teach.
Throughout the course of his career, Christensen would write 10 books, though none were as ubiquitous as “The Innovator’s Dilemma,” which was timed perfectly in retrospect. It put forth a theory why people buy products that are often cheaper and easier to use than their more sophisticated and more expensive predecessors, and resonated widely as one incumbent after another — Xerox, U.S. Steel, Digital Equipment Corp. — stumbled while other companies began rising in their dust: think Amazon, Google, Apple.
Interestingly, according to the New Yorker, one of Christensen’s rare, bad calls was his prediction that the Apple iPhone wouldn’t be widely adopted because it was too fancy.
Apple cofounder Steve Jobs was a fan nevertheless. According to the Walter Isaacson biography of Jobs published in October 2011, just weeks after Jobs’s death, “The Innovator’s Dilemma” “deeply influenced” him.
If you’re interested in learning more, you might enjoy this conversation between Christensen and investor-entrepreneur Marc Andreessen; it took place in 2016 at the Startup Grind series.

Infos – pH miracle diet creator Robert Young
The pH of the diet is an innovative way to interact with food. The diet emphasizes the need for balance in the diet of acid and alkaline. This balance will help to maintain a healthy flow through the bloodstream and keep cell growth and development work in optimum levels. By reducing the levels of acid destructive most alkaline with a myriad of benefits can result, namely sustainable energy and good health. Following a simple system of balanced diet along with the evidence of saliva pH levels, we can achieve better health. The main proponent of this alkaline diet is a man by the name of Dr Robert Young.
Drying heralds that a diet that is made up of 80% alkaline producing foods and 20% acid producing foods will allow people to achieve their healthier bodies and healthier lives. Through his research Dr. Young has surmised that the optimum pH level of the human body is 7.35. The pH spectrum is from 1 to 14 with 1 being highly acid and 14 being highly alkaline. With the body leaning toward moderately alkaline he contends that people can supplement their diets with more alkaline. Dr. Robert Young stresses that a body that is ravaged by excess acid will be more prone to serious health problems.
Dr.Robert younger studies began in the early 70 at the University of Utah, where he studied biology and business. He received the Member States in nutrition, a Ph.D. in science, a doctorate in nutrition, and an AR Clayton College of Natural Health for 90 years. Critics of Mr. Young question of the validity of the school where he received his degrees. The impact of his teaching is undeniable, it has helped many people to achieve better health through a regime of fruits and vegetables has increased, and more water consumption. He also stressed to avoid caffeine and alcoholic beverages to maintain vitality.
He is also a strong supporter of pleomorphism, belief in the ability of bacteria dramatically or morphs to mutate into many forms morphological. This idea has strongly microbiologist community divided into two schools of thought, pleomorphists supporting the claims, and the vehemence that monomorphists dispute. In the current scientific community monomorphic the perspective of microbiology has become the dominant theory. The monomorphic modern medical science supports the theory of development of the cells in which the cells are derived from previously formed cells of the same shape and size.
Dr.Young holds retreats where he educates users on Diet alkalis and live red blood cells in an in-depth seminar microscopy. According to the National Council against Health Fraud, Dr. Robert Young, in 1996, pleaded guilty to a charge of attempted crime medicine without a license. He promised that the charge would be dismissed if he stayed clear for 18 months. The youths reportedly examined blood samples from two women who were seeking nutritional advice.
Critics of his live red blood cell examination conclude that his test have no scientific validity. Dr. Young counters his critics citing many papers and sources validating his claims including Understanding Acid-Base by Benjamin Abele, M.D., a lecturer of medicine at Yale school of Medicine and Clinical Physiology of Acid-Base by Burton David Rose, M.D., a Clinical Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School.
According to his website, Dr. Young is a member of the American Society of Microbiologists, the American Naturopathic Association, and an honorary member of the Connecticut Holistic Health Associations, the Presidents Council at Brigham Young University. He is also a consultant for Inner Light, Inc. and an advisor to Dean Lawrence Carter at the Martin Luther King Chapel, Morehouse College. He was also honored by Professor Lawrence Carter at Morehouse College with an induction into the collegiums of scholars as well as placed on the advisory board. He has been praised by Professor Carter for his efforts in understanding the balance of body chemistry and the effects of this balance on health.
