A | Jimmy Buffett, the singer and songwriter of "Margaritaville" and dozens of other beachy soft-rock songs, has died at 76 years old, according to a statement posted on his website and social media channels. "Jimmy passed away peacefully on the night of September 1st surrounded by his family, friends, music and dogs," the statement said. "He lived his life like a song till the very last breath and will be missed beyond measure by so many." The statement included a photo of Buffett dressed casually and sitting in a boat out on the water. A cause of death was not revealed.
Buffett only ever had one pop hit, "Margaritaville," but his music earned him generations of devoted fans and led to a business empire that made him one of America's wealthiest celebrities.
Buffett started as a country singer and street performer in New Orleans, Louisiana. In 2017, CBS Sunday Morning's Tracy Smith and Buffett traveled to the area's French Quarter together, where Buffett said that the city was integral to his career. "Those years being here really were formative years for me, and it made me a better professional player so I thought I could make that leap and all of this was my training ground for all of that," he said, adding that he thinks his success "probably would not have happened" if not for New Orleans. Buffett spent decades touring after the success of "Margaritaville," and he used the commercial clout and the support of his rabid "Parrotheads," or fans, to merchandise his music, open a chain of Margaritaville resorts and restaurants, and launch a lifestyle brand. According to Forbes, Buffett's net worth was over a billion dollars, and his concerts have reportedly grossed more than a million dollars a night. Buffett continued to tour until 2023. His last tour date, listed on his website, is a performance in San Francisco on May 6, 2023. About two weeks later, he cancelled upcoming late May tour dates in South Carolina. At the time, Buffett said he was hospitalized for "some issues that needed immediate attention."
"Growing old is not for sissies, I promise you," he wrote at the time. Buffett is survived by his wife, Jane Slagsvol, two daughters, Savannah Jane and Sarah Delaney, and son Cameron Marley.
B | 経営状況が悪化します。 その後伊勢丹などと業務提携を行いますが、経営は回復せず2026年2月末をもって閉店することが決まりました。これを受け、現在では閉店感謝セールを実施するとともに「71年分の歴史展」といった展示会も実施しています。 歴史ある百貨店だけに、ここには時代を感じる珍しいエスカレーターがあります。それが8階と9階をつなぐエスカレーターです。 最大の特徴といえるのが手すりの部分にあります。一般的なエスカレーターは、手すり部分がクルっと丸まった形で入り込み、それが半周してまた戻ってくるという形になっています。
C | しかし、名鉄百貨店のエスカレーターの手すりは、末端部分が床に向かって垂直にストンと落ちるような形状になっているのです。正式名称は東芝エレベータが1960年代に開発した「C形エスカレーター」。一般的な巻き込み型エスカレーターが登場する以前に、デザイン性を重視して作られた貴重なものだそうです。 名鉄百貨店の公式サイトによれば「世界でも2基しかないと言われているとても貴重なもの」とのこと。なお、2基というのは、このエスカレーターの上りと下りを合わせた数なので、名鉄百貨店にしかないことになります。 なお、床部分に目を転じると、そこには「東芝」の文字がアルファベットの筆記体で埋め込まれています。
