Hello and welcome to Memoir Place. The idea for this site began germinating after I found the long lost memoir of my great grandfather, Solomon Greenblatt, the man after whom I was named. His memoirs were stories of his early childhood, and his journey from Europe to America in the 1920’s. The stories were inspiring and deeply meaningful.
It was time for my grandfather, my last living grandparent, to write his memoirs. After doing a huge amount of research into the resources available to help people write their memoirs, I was shocked at how little help was available. This site is here to change that.
I want to sincerely thank all the people without whom this site would not exist. To all the friends, family, programmers, designers, and memoir experts who have helped out over the past months; you are all amazing. This site would never have happened without you. To my parents and girlfriend, you know how much you did, and I am eternally grateful.


In Marathon, the Fusion Pistol bullet and the projectile that the S'pht shoot seem to be pretty similar. Do they have similar damage amounts too? They both seem to be electricity weapons
This is kind of hard to answer, since the Fusion pistol's secondary fire is chargeable, so it does varying levels of damage. Plus, you can't fire the s'pht weapon yourself, seeing as it's kind of a part of their body. If you wanted to compare the damage, you'd have to figure out how much damage they do in single player, and then go into multi-player and shoot another player with a fusion pistol and see how the damage compares.
Also, the various difficulty levels in the game change the amount of damage you do and is done to you, so you'd have to test every iteration of the difficulty as well.
Therefore, the answer to the damage question is likely "it depends."
As far as the shots looking similar, Marathon originally came on floppy disks, so there wasn't a heck of a lot of room for game data - it's likely that they use the same model for both things.
Story-wise, the s'pht don't use the same technology precisely, but they are able to duplicate fusion batteries to an extent. Perhaps the technology is similar, but Bungie never expounded on this during the Marathon trilogy as far as I'm aware. The following is an excerpt from the Marathon 2 manual:
(This quote is referenced as part of a Wikia article on the Fusion Pistol)


Washington, D.C. – House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) released the joint statement below following the remarks made yesterday by White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest that President Obama delayed his decision to act unilaterally on immigration until after the November elections because he didn’t want Republicans to win on the issue.
“It’s shocking that the White House now openly admits that President Obama is delaying his unilateral actions on immigration until after the November elections simply because of raw politics. Whether before or after the election in November, it is never acceptable for the President to re-write our laws by executive decree – the Constitution does not give him the authority to do so. By taking unilateral action on immigration, President Obama will inject serious constitutional questions into an already heated debate. Such shortsighted actions will undermine the American people’s trust in the President’s commitment to enforcing our immigration laws and will further setback any chance of enacting immigration reform.”
Last month, House Judiciary Committee Republicans wrote to President Obama demanding that he disclose to the American people the recommendations he has received for the anticipated executive actions he will take to further dismantle our nation’s immigration laws. To date, the President has failed to respond.

Anna Burns, Milkman (Faber and Faber, 2018)
“The day Somebody McSomebody put a gun to my breast and called me a cat and threatened to shoot me was the same day the milkman died.”
So opens Anna Burns’ darkly funny political novel, Milkman, set in 1970s Northern Ireland. An unnamed eighteen-year-old, known only as middle sister, inhabits several parallel worlds while being sexually harassed by an older, powerful militant she tries to evade through inaction and avoidance.
This is as much a feminist story about intimidation and bullying as it is about a community wrecked by violence in the name of politics. Divided loyalties and quirky subgroups abound: “the beyond the pales,” the “issues women,” the real milkman, the false milkman, International Couple (ballroom dancers whose abandoned children watch them on TV). Middle sister’s voice is wacky, witty, and highly literate. Her unique voice as she overtells and overthinks events is dense and surprising, also poetic and innocent. And garrulous.
Such a captivating read, especially if you are a lover of words and of overlays of expressions and meanings. Small wonder that in these fractious times it received the 2018 Man Booker Prize. It is a total original.—AA
Adrienne Celt, Invitation to a Bonfire (Bloomsbury, 2018)
Zoya Andropova didn’t ask to be rescued from her Soviet orphanage, but rescued she is—by well-meaning Americans who dump her at a wealthy boarding school where she feels completely at sea. She takes refuge in literature, in particular by the émigré writer Lev (Leo) Orlov, whose science fiction transports her to more satisfying times and places.
So perhaps it is no surprise that when Orlov shows up in person, Zoya tumbles into love with him, ignoring his very present and controlling wife, Vera. Zoya charts the evolution of this romantic triangle in her diary, which we read, interspersed with letters from Lev to Vera and various documents from the school and the local police force.
Adrienne Celt’s stylistically gorgeous new novel, Invitation to a Bonfire, is inspired by the life of the well-known Russian writer Vladimir Nabokov. But as the story builds, it leaves the details of Nabokov’s life and marriage behind, roaring out of a quiet academic beginning to reach a place that upends almost everything we have believed up to that point. Find out more from the author’s interview at the Literary Hub.—CPL
Jenny Hale, Summer at Firefly Beach (Bookouture, 2019)
In the summer, is there really anything better than pouring yourself a glass of lemonade and curling up on a porch swing to read a romance novel? Actually, I prefer wine, and I don’t have a porch swing, but I still love a good summer love story—and I found exactly that in Summer at Firefly Beach, the newest book by Jenny Hale.
When Hallie’s Aunt Clara dies, leaving her a to-do list she must complete before she can claim her inheritance, Hallie turns to her family and her best friend Ben for support. Still recovering from a broken engagement, Ben’s presence is the one comfortable thing Hallie can count on to keep her going. But when she realizes her feelings for him are turning to something more complicated, she must decide if keeping his friendship is more important than risking her heart.
Even when skirting around the typical romance tropes (which I found refreshing – a few things weren’t as they seemed), this is a sparkly novel filled with likable characters, a beautiful seaside setting, and a sweet, satisfying ending.—CJH
Sujata Massey, The Widows of Malabar Hill (Soho Crime, 2018)
If you are new to Sujata Massey, you’re in for a rare treat. If you have been following her since The Salaryman's Wife, you will be back for more. Either way, Ms. Massey is a stunning writer, and TWMH doesn't disappoint. More than that, from the first page you will drop into a different world and emerge only at the end, breathless and longing for more.
Parveen has returned from Oxford and is the first woman lawyer in Bombay, in 1920. No, she can’t actually go to court, but she can act as solicitor (a non-courtroom lawyer), and her father brings her into his practice to work with him. This is felicitous when a contested will emerges, favoring the title’s widows, who are Muslims living in purdah (seclusion). But Parveen’s backstory is anything but simple, and the flashbacks carry the reader along with the full confidence of an accomplished writer.
A murder occurs, a mystery is investigated, trouble ensues, and as in so many mysteries coincidences abound, but it’s the descriptions, the clothes, the customs, the sounds, foods, and aromas that carry us along. And the scene of Parveen’s father in court on her personal behalf was, to me, gloriously moving. Not to be missed.—CHL

Two mindsets are battling for the hearts and minds of Aboriginal people. One of victimhood that focuses on the wrongs of the past and racism. The other that we can decide our own path.
By Nyunggai Warren Mundine AO, Chairman of the Yaabubiin Institute for Disruptive Thinking
There’s an interesting article circulating social media by psychotherapist Lisa Marchiano about victimhood culture and how embracing oppression and illness leads to developmental delay and poor mental health.
Victimhood culture rewards the wronged and weak; victims gain social standing and can rally support from those with power. It also encourages people to look externally for strength. Marchiano explains: “Thinking of ourselves as oppressed or infirm may inadvertently cultivate what psychologists call an external locus of control … Those with an internal locus of control experience themselves as able to influence outcomes that affect them. Those with an external locus of control feel that most of what happens to them is beyond their ability to affect.”
This framework aptly explains the two types of mindsets currently competing for the hearts and minds of Aboriginal people.
The first mindset focuses on past wrongdoings and “institutionalised racism”: every problem Aboriginal people suffer today — be it higher incarceration rates, disparities in education and employment, health problems, even family violence — is explained by history’s wrongdoings and the inherent racism of “the system”.
The traumas of colonisation, loss of culture and language, land dispossession, massacres, forced removals, segregation continue through current generations. Racism permeates Australian society, invisible but omnipresent despite equal rights, anti-discrimination laws and even affirmative action.
When asked for solutions, this mindset calls for more government help. Without irony, it demands governments “give” Aboriginal people self-determination. It advocates abstract or ill-defined gestures like “recognition” or “reconciliation” as panaceas. But no symbolic, reconciling or even compensatory act will achieve anything if people can’t move on from the past and if victimhood is seen as virtuous.
This mindset fosters an external locus of control; thinking you’re at the mercy of what others decide. Aboriginal people’s decisions and actions aren’t our own; what happens to us is beyond our ability to effect. We’re all victims, even young people who’ve never lived under segregation; who’ve grown up with governments bending over backwards to help them catch up.
The second mindset is the one I was raised with: that we can decide our path. My parents and forebears all lived in abject poverty, suffered blatant discrimination and segregation, even violence and abuse. But although they weren’t blind to systemic barriers, they wouldn’t let that hold them back.
My parents lived most of their lives as second-class citizens but in their own minds they weren’t. They didn’t wait for government to give them self-determination. They took it; made their own decisions; took responsibility for their own life.
They suffered racism. My father needed a Certificate of Exemption to travel home from work after 5pm without being arrested. But they didn’t believe themselves inferior. Neither received more than primary education. But they worked and gained skills; their children completed high school, even university, and had successful careers. My parents started married life living in a tent by a river and went on to own their own home.
My parents understood the realities of life for Aboriginal people but insisted we be the best we could with what we had. They worked hard to do better than their parents and provide an even better future for their children. They had an internal locus of control; believing they already had self-determination.
I wrote about my family in my memoirs released last year. I also tracked my own personal journey from a young socialist activist to someone who believes economic participation through education, work and business is the only way to close the gap.
I didn’t just dream that up one day. It came from years of reading, thinking and observation, both of Aboriginal communities and other peoples who have experienced colonisation, oppression, even genocide. I learned a people can survive, even thrive, despite history, but it depends which of these two mindsets they embrace.
The first mindset is a self-fulfilling prophecy. It entrenches disadvantage even when external barriers are removed. Like a caged animal who thinks it’s still locked up even after you open the door. Sadly, this first mindset has grown among Aboriginal people in past decades even as discrimination has reduced and rights have been won.
The second mindset is the only way Aboriginal people can break from the shackles of the past. This mindset isn’t unique to my family. (It used to be the norm. If not, Aboriginal people wouldn’t have survived colonisation.) But we don’t hear as much about people with this mindset. it doesn’t fit the victim narrative. Aboriginal people with this mindset are often dismissed as exceptions. Or worse, abused as race traitors.
The past can’t be changed. Victimhood culture condemns Aboriginal people to disparity, no matter what. To my parents, thinking of yourself as a victim was a weakness. But unlike my parents, every Aboriginal person today has a pathway out of disadvantage ready for them. The cage door is open.

PROJECT IN DETAIL
The number of chronic diseases caused by adverse immune reactions is continuously increasing.
To date, this group of diseases affects over 10% of the global population. In addition to the high burden on the patients (chronicity, organ failure, early death, reduced quality of life), this results in great direct and indirect costs for society (EU: >100 billion €/year direct health care costs).
While symptoms can be treated, there is currently no cure.
Therapies have limited efficacy. Many times, the disturbed immune balance cannot be restored sustainably.
The consortium behind the “geneTIGA” project is addressing this problem using the example of IgA nephropathy (IgAN), the most common immunological kidney disease (glomerulonephritis), which is also one of the most common causes of kidney failure.

Technology is growing at a rapid rate, and although the 21st Century has so far been a bumper century for gizmos and gadgets, things can only progress. We may be half-way through the year, but that doesn’t mean 2017 isn’t yet to bring us surprises in artificial intelligence and augmented reality. Watch this space; the future is bright!
Machine learning is artificial intelligence which allows computers to learn about our likes, dislikes, and preferences without even being programmed. This enables computers and programs to change their patterns and behaviors depending on the choices that users make, based on incoming data. This is done automatically without ever needing to be updated or manually reprogrammed. One example of this is our Facebook feeds - we only see things which we like to see, usually read or enjoy watching; anything which we scroll over quickly soon gets disregarded and will rarely show up for us to view again.
This year will be the year when driverless cars make their big break. These cars have the technology to minimize any human error and avoiding danger and distractions that humans are constantly faced with. The mass production of driverless cars is getting close, and safety on the road is getting much better because of this. This new technology has the potential to dramatically change society by extending car-sharing options and therefore saving fuel and decreasing pollution.
Thanks to the likes of Uber, and everyone wanting to be ‘The Uber of…’, we’ve got used to everything we could ever want being available at our fingertips. In 2017, we are seeing this technology and need develop even further, and although there are hundreds upon thousands of apps out there which allow us to order food, find a date, or book a room for the night, this is sure to wander into some weird and wonderful technology sooner rather than later.
Mobile phones and tablets have been bringing technology into our daily lives slowly but surely. You can hardly walk down a street without seeing somebody swiping through the news or browsing social media - we have the whole world in our hands and are constantly connected. We already have access to things like site-to-store purchasing, which enables customers to buy and pick up products in a physical location. We can even sit in bars and restaurants, order from an app and have your food and drinks delivered to your table without even the need to talk to another human being.
Virtual and augmented reality
Last year we saw the first set of virtual reality headsets and cutting edge technology become mainstream. In 2017, we are expecting it to be taken to the next stage and to be popping up just about everywhere. It is set that virtual reality will be with us through our mobile phones without the need for any extra hard or software, augmented reality headsets are going to be designed to integrate seamlessly with our devices and deliver VR experiences on the go. The history of mobile phones will take a giant leap, from tiny computer in our pockets to experience device. This year we will see companies such as Microsoft and Amazon make a breakthrough with their mixed reality and VR platforms.
Human augmented technology
If 2017 is set to be the year of augmented reality, then it seems only natural to progress to human augmented technology. We think that this will be the year where we will see human enhancement robotics take a center stage in the world of technological advancement. This technology has some serious super powers, and helping people to stand and walk again is just the tip of this potential iceberg. Medical robots will be taken to new levels and open opportunities for both the medical industry and patients. Medical breakthroughs are on the way!
Our healthcare systems can often force us to feel as though we are not being listened to, and that we are being given the same treatment as everybody else. Precision medicine tailors treatment to our personal bodies and needs. This type of healthcare is based on algorithms, data and molecular precision tools. This will dramatically change the way we communicate with our doctors, and instead of treating symptoms, will now be treating people.
IoT and Smart home technology
The revolution of Internet of Things (IoT) has been on the tip of our tongues for some time now, but why aren’t we all already living in homes which are interconnected with our phones and tablets? Most of the holdup, we suspect, has been because there has been too much competition and not a lot of collaboration. Amazon, Google, and Apple are hot on the heels of this technology, so it won’t be long until it is readily available for everybody to use.
The next level will see even more integration between the digital and physical worlds. Brands who are traditionally online now have the ability to have a physical presence in your home, the Amazon Echo for example, and more traditional brands will be bringing the digital in store. You will likely see this in the form of store maps, product trials and being able to scan and price up from our phones.
There are many people out there who will be pleased with this new technology, as it will see the automation of some exceptionally mundane and boring jobs, which were once human-exclusive tasks, now given to robots. Robotic journalists have been doing the rounds for a while, and it probably won’t be very long until they are capable of writing in depth and even more comprehensive articles than what they are already doing. It is likely that 2017 will see automation begin to take over a whole range of white-collar jobs, and we will even begin to see the end of some human jobs altogether. When automation is twinned with machine learning, everything has the potential of improving at a very fast rate.

Been years since I played last. I think it was 2012 or so. Anyway I started a new toon for the fresh start and have been on the lookout for a small-med gang focused corp (im most interested in triglavian small-med ships and bomber fleets).
I have injected to have a pretty decent spread of combat skills (not much else interests me).
Im looking for either a null entity that flies medium sized fleets tops (not that big on huge slugfests) or a low class WH group that is ok with a newbie’ish guy getting in and getting situated, in other words I will ask a lot of questions.
If you are interested in me feel free to mail me in game or reply on here I will be keeping up with both. Thanks for your time,
ps: im US west coast tz


As for the honest, realistic debate that many hope will be spurred by this ruling, I’m not holding my breath. The Supreme Court is unlikely to wipe away the health care delusions of Canadians, when a decade of declining services and increasing waiting lists have done nothing but reinforce those delusions.
As if on cue, here’s Jack Layton to inject a fresh shot of poison and distortion into the health care debate, by demanding – as the price of continuing to prop up the Martin government – that the federal government ban “double dipping” by doctors.
The term “double dipping” has until now generally been limited in its use to politicians who are drawing two government paycheques, such as a politician receiving an MPP pension plus an MP’s salary after having been elected to the federal Parliament. But The Toronto Star provided this definition in a November 3rd story, “Liberals draft health deal for Layton”:
Double dipping refers to a practice in which some doctors offer patients the same services in the insured public system or more quickly in private clinics for higher fees. Some medicare advocates have been urging Ottawa to guarantee that the public health system be kept completely separate from privately delivered services.
Although the practice of double dipping is not widespread, both Layton and Dosanjh have expressed concern about it and Layton, in his talks with the Liberals, has been demanding a ban on it in the Canada Health Act. Such a provision would head off any future attempts by the provinces to allow it.
Not widespread? I’ve never even heard of it until now. Frankly it sounds like another Lib-left bogeyman not unlike “extra-billing” in Ontario in the 1980s. Banning so-called extra-billing was one of the concessions Bob Rae extracted from David Peterson to catapult Peterson from opposition leader to the Premier’s Office in the minority Parliament that was the result of the 1985 election.
A doctors’ strike ensued, during which The Star ran a now-infamous editorial cartoon depicting doctors as pigs at the trough. The Peterson government eventually prevailed in banning extra-billing, however, and the province’s relations with doctors have been poisoned ever since.
The fact is, in many industrialized countries that have public health care, one of the things that makes it work is allowing doctors to work in both government facilities and private ones. But Layton will have none of this, nor will Sid Ryan, Tommy Douglas’ daughter, the health care unions, and the others who are too heavily invested in the Cuban model of health care to see reality.
One reality is that while the federal government can pass whatever laws it wants, it has little financial leverage over provincial governments to impose those laws. Since it gave up tax points to the provinces in the 1980s, all it can do is withhold cash transfers, which in many provinces account for less than 20% of their health budgets. Wealthy provinces can simply tell the feds to take a hike, as they could well afford whatever clawbacks the federal government imposes under the new law.


UN says it will file case with the United Arab Emirates of a missing Emirati princess. Secretly recorded video of the princess from what she describes as a villa-turned-prison sparked a call for international intervention and evidence that she is alive.
The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Boris Johnson said on Wednesday that he was “concerned” about the situation of Sheikh Latifa bint Mohammed bin Rashid. UK Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said Latifa’s new videos of her being held against her will are “very worrying.”
We recommend: Princess Eleanor of Spain will study high school in Wales
Rupert Colville, spokesman for the UN high commissioner for human rights, said on Wednesday that the world body would “present this case with the United Arab Emirates.” Other parts of the UN human rights system “maybe they could get involved once they analyze the new material or if they receive specific allegations”added.
Johnson said the UK would follow the UN investigation. “I think what we will do is wait and see how things go. We will be on the lookout, ”he said.
Latifa has twice tried to escape from Dubai but is forcibly returned and has managed to record a series of secret messages using a telephone from a villa that she claims has “become a prison.” The new video aired on Panorama BBC on Tuesday night.
During her last escape attempt in January 2018, Latifa used an inflatable boat to reach a yacht anchored in international waters.. Eight days later, off the coast of India, an Indian commando boarded the ship and returned her to her father, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum. India has never commented on its involvement in the matter.
“Since then I have been here. More than a year in solitary confinement. I have no access to medical help, no trial, no charges, nothingLatifa said in a message to her friends, which she recorded in the bathroom, which is the only room she says she can lock. “Every day I worry about my safety and the police say that I will never see the sun again. I’m not safe here. “
In another video he said: “The door to my room… because I can’t lock it. I put a bottle on some boxes so that if someone wants to come in, make a lot of noise and serve as an alarm to stop talking. Well yes, this is my situation now ”.
The posts came to an abrupt halt last year, forcing his friends to seek media attention. Raab was asked on Sky News if he would request proof from Dubai that Latifa was still alive and he replied: “Given what we’ve just seen, I think people out of humanity would want to know if she’s alive and well”.
Lee: The UAE mission to Mars is already underway
He told the BBC that The United Kingdom and the UN would follow up on this video, the details of which he could not confirm The Guardian. A comment has already been requested from the Dubai government media office.
The UK Family Court I agree last year Latifa’s father had already forcibly returned her twice and done the same to another daughter, Shamsa, when she ran away from the family property in Sussex in 2000. The court also found that he had organized an intimidation campaign against his youngest wife, Sheikha Haya, who also fled Dubai with her two children. Sheikh Mohammed said at the time that the trial only told part of the story.
Asked whether Britain could impose sanctions on Dubai for the video, Raab said: “It is not clear to me that there is evidence to support that.”
In an interview with the BBC on Wednesday, he said: “Any criminal matter must be investigated by the police and he has to do it without fear and objectively ”.
Before the videos, Latifa’s last public appearance was in a series of photographs released by the Dubai government in which the President of Ireland, Mary Robinson appeared to confirm the well-being of the princess. Robinson told Panorama that she had been misled.
“They lied to me. At first my good friend Princess Haya did it, because she was also cheated on, “said Robinson. Haya began to explain that Latifa had a serious bipolar problem. And they told me, very convincingly: ‘We don’t want Latifa to go through any more trauma’”.
He added: “I didn’t know how to talk about a trauma with someone bipolar. And I didn’t really want to talk to her and add to her trauma over a nice meal. ”
Tiina Jauhiainen, a close friend of Latifa, told Panorama that the princess was suffering. “She is so pale, she has not seen the sun in months. He can barely go from his room to the kitchen and back”, Dijo Jauhiainen.

There is a popular schtick among certain conservative pundits where they claim to be the only true non-partisan, independents left in the country. Their self-proclaimed independent status is supposed to lend a special aura of credibility to everything they say. While everyone else is blinded by partisanship, only they can speak the truth. For these non-partisan conservatives, the truth usually is that liberals, Democrats, and "the Left" are almost always wrong.
Today, Marshall Wittman, who calls himself the Moose, explains the Left's cult of Bush hatred.
The Moose opposes most of the economic agenda of the Administration. However, he critically supports the President in the war on terror - including the NSA program. This has won the Moose the visceral opprobrium of the left. Because in the left wing universe, one must oppose everything the President supports. The truth is that a good part of the left believes that George W. Bush is a greater threat to America than Osama bin Laden.
Got that? None of us are upset with the NSA wiretapping because of principled support for the Fourth Amendment, the right to privacy, or the rule of law; we hate it because we "must oppose everything the President supports." This is a classic example of the most basic propaganda message: our side believes in honorable things for good reasons; their side takes calculated positions out of ulterior motives.
Before he became an authority on the motivations of the Left, Wittman was Director of Communications for Sen. John McCain, Director of Legislative affairs for the Christian Coalition, Director of Congressional Relations for the Heritage Foundation's and served as the Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Department of Health and Human Services in the Bush administration. With credentials like that, we know his position as the only true non-partisan voice is unassailable.

Local telecom operator CTM has made a profit of 941 million patacas in 2018, the company’s CEO Vandy Poon Fuk Hei said Wednesday, pointing out that this year marks an important time for 5G development as Macau’s leading telecom operator prepares to put the superfast connection into service in the middle of next year.
Last year’s profit rose 6.8 percent year-on-year. In 2017, CTM reported a profit of 881 million patacas, down 19 percent year-on-year, according to media reports at that time.
Poon made the remarks in a speech during the company’s annual media lunch.
According to Poon, the company shifted its focus last year to offering a variety of smart application services as its network infrastructure has been completed and is already in use.
Poon pointed out that instead, investments were spent on infrastructure enhancement involving building a full fibre-optic network and 4G+ mobile network, expanding its WiFi hotspot coverage, opening a CTM software development centre in Zhuhai and a CTM data centre in Hong Kong, apart from the development of the Internet of things (IoT) applications.
Poon added that these projects help foster the upcoming 5G network and the development of IoT based on 5G technology in Macau, stressing that the company would become more of a “digital city operator” than simply a telecom operator.
According to the presentation, the company began testing its 5G network in June last year, and collaborating with Benefit Vantage Limited and the University of Macau (UM), the company is preparing to launch 5G services in the middle of next year.
Two agreements were signed during a press conference. One of the agreements was signed with Benefit Vantage Limited, a service provider on network security and data backup base in Hong Kong. According to a CTM statement, the collaboration will introduce IPification mobile authentication technology to Macau to provide a safer and seamless online payment system in the city.
The other agreement was signed with the University of Macau, which will join CTM in the research and development of 5G mobile technology for Macau.(Macaunews)

New Amsterdam Stars Talk Future of Freema Agyeman’s Sharpwin and Helen in Season 4
New Amsterdam brought a big change to Max and Helen in season 4 when they found their joy and followed her across the ocean to start a new life together in London. Sadly, Vijay’s death took them back to New York to see for themselves what the hospital is like under Veronica Fuentes’ control, and her motto is definitely not “How can I help?” With Max staying behind to try and oust him, there was the question of what role will freema agyeman have now that Helen is back in London, and what that means for Sharpwin. Fortunately, stars Tyler Labine and Ryan Eggold each weighed in.
I spoke separately with Tyler Labine and Ryan Eggold ahead of the Feb. 22 episode of New Amsterdam, which will be the last before the medical drama goes on hiatus until April, so it’s not an episode fans will want to miss. Tyler Labine, who plays Iggy Frome recently betrayed and demoted, had some encouraging words for fans about Freema Agyeman’s future. When asked if Helen would still have a role to play across the ocean, he shared:
The Dam Fam can officially celebrate the confirmation that New Amsterdam found ways to keep Freema Agyeman and Helen Sharpe in the mix even though the character is currently solo in London. Season 4 gave her a new career path as she rebuilds her life across the pond after years in the States, and it was her who encouraged Max to stay in New York for help their friends in New Amsterdam. So no need to worry about her going missing or forgotten while the main action returns to New York.
But what about Sharpwin? While they clearly love each other and Max was ready to go all-in build a life with her and Luna in London, there’s a lot of physical distance between them now, and it’s unclear how long Max will be needed in New York. That doesn’t even take into account the time difference! Luckily, Ryan Eggold, who of course plays Max, had some good news for fans who might have been worried about what the physical separation would mean for Sharpwin:
Separation is not going to be a killer for the Sharpwin relationship after they made the decision to move together, even if some obstacles are in the way. Considering all the challenges Max is likely facing in New York now as he tries to oust Fuentes with no more power in the hospital, it’s good to know that the show’s main relationship isn’t going to get any better. collapse because of Fuentes. She’s already caused enough trouble for the characters, I’d say! Plus, a reunion with Helen could be a light at the end of Fuentes’ tunnel for Max, depending on how difficult things get.
See what happens in the next episode of New Amsterdam now that Max is back in New York trying to help on Tuesday, Feb. 22 at 10 p.m. ET on NBC, and don’t forget to check with CinemaBlend for more on the stars. Ryan Eggold directed the episode, so it will also be a special behind-the-scenes episode. The medical drama will then go on hiatus until April 19, with NBC’s upcoming miniseries The thing about Pam temporarily taking the time slot in the 2022 TV Scheduleso be sure to catch New Amsterdamthe last episode before the break!

Credit lease or leasing in English is a particular financing technique that offers an alternative to credit. It is aimed at companies but can also interest individuals.
We also speak of a rental contract with option to purchase (LOA). Its practice is reserved for commercial enterprises approved as credit institutions. Most of them are subsidiaries of banks or car manufacturers.
How it works
The principle is relatively simple: the customer ( credit-taker ) pays throughout the contract rents (fees) to a company ( credit-lessor ) to benefit from the immediate use of a property which he can become the owner of at a agreed price at the end of the contract.
It is therefore above all a rental transaction comprising a unilateral promise to sell.
Good to know: at the end of the contract, the two parties can also agree to a renewal.
Capital goods and tools
Furniture leasing generally concerns capital goods or tooling material. In practice, the company selects the products it needs (car, tools, furniture, equipment, etc.) and then contacts a financial company specializing in Leasing. The latter then buys the property and then rents it to the company.
Industrial or commercial buildings
Real estate leasing can adapt to the real estate needs of the business. The latter pays rent to occupy its premises (warehouses, offices, goodwill) over an agreed period without a lease contract.
At the end, the company becomes the owner of the premises on the basis of the residual value. Unlike a mortgage, it is not essential to have a personal contribution.
As the rental contract is not subject to the status of commercial leases, the tenant company cannot therefore terminate at the end of each three-year period. The contract must therefore include an early termination clause.
Important: if the duration exceeds 12 years, the contract must be subject to land advertising.
Rental of the commercial premises to a third party by the lessee
On June 10, 1980, the Court of Cassation confirmed a decision of a Court of Appeal which granted in the context of a real estate finance lease the possibility of the lessee to rent the commercial premises. However, the commercial lease cannot be opposed to the lessor.
Clearly, if the lessee does not exercise the purchase option, the tenant cannot remain in place.
Early termination clause
The contract must include an early termination clause and provide for the financial conditions under which it is exercised.
The Court of Cassation, dated April 27, 1988 confirmed that in the event of early termination, the lessor could not demand payment of the remaining rents. The compensation must therefore not be assimilated to a penal clause and must be less than the capital remaining due.
Advantages and disadvantages
For the lender
Financial institutions particularly appreciate leasing operations because by becoming an owner, they benefit from a foolproof guarantee in the event of default by their client.
On commercial premises
This is an opportunity for the company that wishes to acquire its commercial premises to do so even if it does not have any personal contribution (most often required by the banks as part of a classic property finance) or guarantees necessary for this type of operation. Even if this acquisition is carried out in two stages, it therefore offers the possibility of becoming an owner.
For companies that have sufficient funds to finance all or part of the acquisition, real estate leasing offers the possibility of preserving their cash flow or allocating it to other investments. Finally, since real estate operations in the field of commercial premises are not free of risks, this is an opportunity for the company to transfer this risk to the lessor.
On the movable part
Much appreciated in the IT field, furniture leasing makes it possible to benefit from equipment that is always at the cutting edge of progress
Rents are considered as operating expenses and therefore deducted in full from the accounting result. In addition, the market value of the property is not included in the company’s balance sheet. Note also that it is possible to negotiate an increased first rent. This possibility increases the deductible portion over a financial year.
However, depreciation and loan interest do not come into deduction, it is necessary to properly assess the interest that such a practice has for the company.
The other mechanisms
The sale and leaseback mechanism
This is a reverse mechanism since it consists for a business owner of its professional premises in reselling the property to a lessor. The lease-back mechanism thus makes it possible to improve its cash flow while continuing to occupy the premises which it can moreover buy back in the context of a leasing contract. Last significant advantage, the gain realized following a sale and leaseback operation benefits from a total exemption.
The principle is the same as during a lease-back operation and applies more particularly to movable property. The lessee then leases the equipment to other user customers.

text: ||This paper investigates productivity growth, technical progress, and efficiency change for a group of the 56 largest CPA firms in the US from the period 1996-1999 through the period 2003-2006, where the former preceded, and the latter followed, enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX). Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is used to calculate Malmquist indices of three measures of interest: productivity growth, technical progress, and efficiency change. Results indicate that CPA firms, on average, experienced a productivity growth of approx. 17% from the pre- to post-SOX period. Consistent with the finding of Banker et al. [Banker RD, Chang H, Natarajan R. Productivity change, technical progress and relative efficiency change in the public accounting industry. Management Science 2005;51:291-304], this productivity gain can be attributed primarily to technical progress rather than a change in relative efficiency. In addition, results indicate that the “Big 4” firms underperformed their non-Big 4 counterparts in both productivity growth and technical progress.

This year's March 3rd is the 22nd National "Hearing Day". The theme of this year is "Everyone Enjoys Hearing Health". The most important part is hearing and talking rehabilitation. That's right, with the continuous advancement of rehabilitation medical technology, more and more hearing impaired people in our country can undergo rehabilitation and complete oral communication. The concept of "ten deaf, nine dumb" is being broken through.
Recently, the reporter interviewed Yang Yang, the chairman of the Chinese Association for the Deaf. She said: “According to the statistics of the second national sample survey, the number of hearing disabilities in China will be 20.54 million by 2021, accounting for about a quarter of the total number of people with disabilities in the country. More than% of the hearing-impaired can communicate in spoken language." Chairman Yang Yang said: “In the past, due to the lack of effective rehabilitation skills, the hearing-impaired in our country had to go to special schools to learn sign language expression and communication. Nowadays, with hearing aids and cochlear implants With the rapid advancement of science and technology and the increasingly advanced rehabilitation methods, more and more hearing impaired children are being educated in ordinary kindergartens and ordinary schools. The situation of "ten deaf, nine dumb" in the past no longer exists."
On the occasion of the 22nd National “Ear Day”, Fongming Cable would build and share a wonderful life with you.

vacuum casting process
How Does Vacuum Casting Work?
Vacuum Casting begins by producing a master model, typically using Stereolithography or Laser Sintering, with a high-quality surface finish. Then a silicone mold is produced by casting silicone around the master copy, partially under vacuum to avoid air bubbles. After curing, the silicone mold is cut according to pre-defined parting planes and the master is removed, leaving a cavity to make copies.
Why choose Vacuum Casting?
Silicone molding results in high-quality parts comparable to injection-molded components. This makes vacuum casted models especially suitable for fit and function testing, marketing purposes or a series of final parts in limited quantities. Vacuum Casting also lends itself well to a variety of finishing degrees, and we can match the finish you need for your parts.
Choose Vacuum Casting
When You Need…
- Fast and cost-effective low-volume production series
- Prototype series
- Conventional manufacturing plastics
- Large parts up to 1900 x 900 x 750 mm
- Multi-material parts via overmolding
Materials for Vacuum Casting
We offer an exceptional range of 26 carefully selected polyurethanes that are similar to rubber, PP, ABS and PC. These materials provide an outstanding variety of properties, and offer the possibility to match colors and cast transparent components. If you are looking for a specific finish, our skilled post-production team for Vacuum Casting will match your requirements.
Regularly if one new product is develop by prototyping , and it’s not under the process of mass production, but also needed a small quantity products to sell in the market , the best choice to save cost from molding is to do the rapid prototyping , use silicone mold (or aluminum mold) to produce small quantity for the trial-produce , or has small quantity products as sample . (silicone rapid prototyping).


The Greek campaign of 1941 recently featured in a major military history conference held in Melbourne.

The New York City Police Department seized 35 pounds of cocaine this week from the mail center at the United Nations.
The bag was masquerading as a diplomatic pouch that raised suspicions when it was scanned because of what appeared to be a fake UN logo. It appeared that the drugs were sent from Mexico City via Cincinnati.
“This did not come from a UN facility,” said Gregory B. Starr, UN undersecretary general for safety and security. “It was not, in my opinion, not intended to go to a United Nations facility.”


The global aircraft health monitoring system market size is projected to reach USD 4,987.9 million by 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 11.56% during the forecast period. The value of the market stood at USD 4,202.4 million in 2023, according to Fortune Business Insights™ in its report, titled “Aircraft Health Monitoring System Market, 2023-2027”. The demand for air travel has plummeted due to the imposition of travel bans, weakened tourist activities, and social distancing. As a result, in 2020, the market declined by a staggering -44.8% and reached a value of USD 2,319.7 million.
List of Key Players Profiled in the AHMS Market Report:
- Meggitt (UK)
- Curtiss-Wright (US)
- SAFRAN (France)
- General Electric Company (US)
- United Technologies Corporation (US)
- Airbus S.A.S. (The Netherlands)
- Lufthansa Technik (Germany)
- Tech Mahindra (India)
- FLYHT (Canada)
- Rolls Royce (UK)
- Honeywell International, Inc. (US)
- Boeing (US)
Development of Electric Aircraft to Brighten Market Outlook
With a view to advance sustainability in the aviation industry, several aircraft innovators, especially startups, have been engineering and introducing electric airplanes, which has stoked the aircraft health monitoring system market growth. In September 2020, for instance, the Swedish startup, Heart Aerospace, unveiled its industry-leading battery technology and electric drivetrain as part of its mission to build a full-fledged electric airplane for regional flights. Similarly, in June 2019, Israel-based Eviation launched Alice, a breakthrough zero-emission, all-electric 9-seater aircraft, at the Paris Airshow. The innovations represented by these companies are stoking the demand for aircraft health monitoring systems as the maintenance requirements of battery-powered airplanes will be niche and these systems will be needed to ensure the smooth functioning of all the components.
Boeing Signs Multiple Aircraft Deals at the Paris Airshow
In June 2019, Boeing, through its fast-growing Boeing Global unit, signed a series of worth more than USD 100 million at the Paris Airshow. Among the various contracts inked by Boeing was an aircraft health monitoring system (AHMS) agreement that the company signed with Go2Sky, the Slovak charter airline operator. This, along with the other deals, is part of Boeing’s ongoing push to establish and expand its higher-end, digital services catering to the growing need of airline companies for advanced aircraft maintenance and analytics solutions.
On the basis of the sub-system, the market has been segregated into aero-propulsion systems, airframes, ancillary systems, software, and others. By technology, the market is segmented into prognostic systems, diagnostic systems, detection systems, adaptive control, and others. Based on the platform, the market is classified into commercial aircraft, business jets, and regional & military aircraft. Based on fit, the market has been bifurcated into retrofit and line-fit. In terms of geography, the market has been grouped into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World.
North America to Bolster Its Apex Market Position; Asia Pacific to Register Highest CAGR
With a size of USD 1,386.8 million in 2019, North America is poised to dominate the aircraft health monitoring system market share during the forecast period. The principal reason for the region’s unassailable position in the global market is the strong presence of aviation industry giants, such as Bombardier and Boeing, in the US and Canada. These companies have been heavily investing in advanced aircraft maintenance technologies, which have ensured the enduring growth of the regional market.
Asia Pacific is slated to showcase the highest CAGR, supported by the rapidly increasing air passenger traffic in the region. This is primarily attributable to the phenomenal economic growth and development of India and China over the past few decades. Furthermore, domestic airline companies are also making strategic investments in modern fleet management technologies, such as aircraft health monitoring systems, to broaden their business horizons.
Aerospace Bigwigs to Dictate Competitive Dynamics
The competitive landscape of this market is characterized by the dominant activities of bigwigs, such as Airbus and Honeywell, in the aerospace industry. Their robust finances and strong portfolios have allowed these companies to continuously invest in the development of next-generation aircraft health monitoring systems. However, the governing dynamics of this market are now being reshaped due to the entry of startups that are specializing in inventive technologies and enhance this market’s potential.
- December 2020: Safran Helicopter Engines inked a Support-by-Hour contract with China-based State Grid General Aviation Company (SGGAC). Under the contract, Safran will provide maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services to SGGAC, covering its H225 and H215 fleets.

Tommy Donovan (Carlisle)
For much of the season, Tommy Donovan has been a high-end role player for the Wildcats — he’s averaging 10.6 points and 5.6 rebounds per game. But last week he exploded in three Carlsile wins, averaging 18.3 points on 68 percent shooting, 9.7 rebounds, 5 assists and 3.3 steals. He went all Draymond Green in a win over Pleasantville on Thursday night; 19 points, 8 rebounds, 8 steals and 5 assists. Oh, and he was 24-25 from the free-throw line.
Trenton Massner (Wapello)
Wapello won twice last week, and they can think Massner for that. In the two Indians wins, Massner averaged 31.5 points, 5 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 5.5 steals. His 38 points in a win over Notre Dame was perhaps his most impressive accomplishment of the week, but his 8 steals on Tuesday night was eye-opening too.
Brady Walker (Louisa-Muscatine)
We didn’t know a lot about this 6-foot-3 forward until he had two monster games in a row last week. First was a 25 point, 11 rebound performance against Pekin. That was nothing compared to an even more monstrous 31 point, 14 rebound performance in a 10 point win over WACO. Walker is enjoying a fine junior season, averaging 18 points and 5.5 rebounds per game.
Marco Balderas (South Hamilton)
Recently, Balderas was featured on our top assists:turnivers list; he’s been a tremendously efficient point guard all season for the Hawks. Last week — in two South Hamilton wins — he kicked it up a notch, averaging 16.5 points on 63 percent shooting, 10 assists, 5.5 rebounds and 3 steals per game. The junior floor-general has been one of the most productive point guards in Iowa this season.
Jason Taylor (Rock Valley)
Iowa’s 5th-ranked 2018, Taylor currently has offers from South Dakota State and North Dakota, and we’re willing to bet other programs have their sights set on the 6-foot-10 center — especially after last week. In Rock Valley’s last three regular season games, Taylor averaged 20.3 points on 73 percent shooting, 9 rebounds and 6 blocks per game — all well above his season averages in all categories.
Who is Iowa's Player of the Week?

I there, I’m cooking for my friend who has secondary cancer and has strict guidelines on what she can eat. She told me that it’s pretty much Paleo how she been advice to eat. Anyway my question is… On title of this list is a picture of raspberries in the jar with something? I want that recipe pretty please? I think she will be able to eat that as it doesn’t have almond meal or anything like that. Thanks in advance.
At some point on the Paleo diet you’re going to crave something sweet, flavorful, and crunchy, and that’s when we’d recommend baking up a batch of these clusters. They use pumpkin seeds, and we’re just finding out how healthy these are, and the benefits they provide. The sweetness comes from coconut sugar and honey, two approved sources of sweet on Paleo. We recommend going with organic raw honey to avoid the processed kind you find on store shelves. The other ingredients are all-natural, just be sure to use organic pumpkin seeds for the best results.
Most sour gummy candies are going to have sugar listed as the first ingredient, and maybe even the second and third. But on Paleo you won’t be eating anything that contains refined sugar, so they have to get their sweetness from a natural source. In this case they’re banking on the sweetness of watermelon, and using honey as a backup if the watermelon isn’t sweet enough. The sour flavor comes from lemon, a very creative way to reproduce a popular candy choice. The gelatin is grass-fed, an important consideration that keeps this recipe within the confines of the Paleo way of eating.
Made with eggs, pumpkin purée, and a touch of maple syrup, these Paleo pancakes are everything we love about fall, minus the sugar crash that comes with pumpkin spice everything. This recipe opts for a mix of almond meal, coconut flour, baking powder, and cinnamon, but feel free to experiment with other spices. We love using, you guessed it, actual pumpkin spice, or ground cloves or nutmeg.
It only took me THREE years (note the sarcasm) of gluten-free food blogging, to share a recipe for paleo pancakes. I finally feel like a legit food blogger. In my mind – there are certain recipes every food blogger must master within their niche to be considered legit at what they do: chocolate cake (not to brag but… mine is the best), banana bread, brownies, cookies (I have a bunch in my dessert section!) and pancakes. Is there anything I’m missing?
Have tried many recipes and keep coming back to yours. Best one we’ve found. 🙂 thank you!! Today I added lemon peel and lemon juice (less water) along with lots of blueberries…..deeeelllliiish. Oh also…just in case anyone doesn’t have arrowroot or tapioca starch…whole root cassava works just as well. Have even added gelatin the past 2 times and they worked well. The do seem to brown quicker, and I’m not sure if it’s the cassava or gelatin causing this.. But I like them like that!
Any time I see a grain-free recipe for pancakes that says “like REAL pancakes” I always hope “Yes, maybe this is THE ONE!” But like all the others, it’s not. Comments on here saying that there was a strong baking soda taste were correct. I even added in chocolate chips to cover it a bit (still there!) and followed some tips I saw in the comments–I mixed the dry ingredients together then ran them through a mesh strainer (twice!) to make sure everything was well incorporated, added a bit of vanilla and cinnamon, like I used to with regular pancakes, and folded the egg whites at the end to keep the pancakes fluff(ier). I will give them that: they stayed thick, and folding in the egg whites did help most of them from getting too dense (but never fluffy like a real pancake). Then again, mine definitely didn’t come out like the video batter–it was closer to a cookie dough consistency.

Kirsty, with animal protein I’m a pretty picky. I buy at butchers where I trust in the quality. In my opinion there is a huge difference in taste and quality when it comes to animal protein. Grains and veggies I’m more lenient but never with animal protein. The cheapest way to get high quality meat is share a whole animal with friends or neighbors. The bacon we eat is from a pig I share with another 2 families. Once a year I get 1/3 and freeze it all. The bacon is incomparable to any grocery store bacon. I’d rather it less often.
If you’re constantly craving chocolate, you might be deficient in magnesium. In fact, Mercola says approximately 80 percent of all Americans are deficient. If you find you crave chocolate, it’s very likely you need some magnesium. Almonds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and sesame seeds are all great sources of magnesium, as are green leafy veg like Swiss chard and spinach. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5J56pHrhyEg
These are excellent. My sister is eating Paleo and loves them. I love them because my husband and I are diabetic and these are very low in carbs. They have a nice banana-bread flavor and are so easy to make and keep quite well. I am going to add some cinnamon and nutmeg to them to see how enhancing that flavor impacts it. I might also add some finely chopped walnuts for the same reason.

Stuffed burgers are all the rage, and you can get into the craze with the Paleo diet, you just have to stuff the burger with Paleo friendly foods. In this recipe they’ve used an avocado as the stuffing, which gives these burgers potassium and healthy fat they wouldn’t otherwise have. They are grass-fed ground beef for the burger meat, which you’ll want to get into the habit of buying since it is closer to the natural way cows would eat. They’ve also managed to sneak in some sun-dried tomatoes, so you’ll be getting additional nutrition from those.
These were awesome – my 3 and 5 year olds gobbled them up! I added 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/4 tsp baking soda and chocolate chips. I cooked a few on the stovetop then decided it was much easier to bake them like cookies. I made pretty small pancakes (probably about 3″) and baked them for 10-12 min at 400 degrees. Thanks for the awesome, easy recipe!
Nina, how much cinnamon do you use for your pancakes? I have tried banana pancakes, with just 2 eggs, a banana and then some cinnamon and vanilla, but….I find seems like the banana tends to overpower things a bit, not sure if I’m not used to or not or if using an organic one would make a difference, but it’s a little bit of an adjustment. Any tips there? A binder may not be a bad idea either…… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqPcH8zEStw
Perhaps the best part of this Paleo fish taco recipe is that they show you how to make wraps or tortillas without using any all-purpose flour, so you can use these for all sorts of different recipes. In this particular recipe they are using mahi mahi that’s been coated in olive oil and then seasoned. They also serve them up with a tasty mango barbecue sauce that incorporates apple cider vinegar into it. There is also a cilantro mayo which is made from a Paleo friendly mayonnaise recipe, as well as coconut milk, chili powder, and cayenne.
These red pepper poppers are great for game day snacking, or anytime you get the notion. They do take a bit of time to make, so maybe not the best choice if you are looking for something fast to make to lessen your hunger pangs. These have meat and vegetables in pretty equal amounts, with bacon wrapped around the peppers and chicken breast acting as the stuffing. They kick it up a notch with some red pepper flakes so these will be spicy, bacony, and loaded with flavor. You might need something to dip them in, might we suggest this Paleo friendly Ranch dressing?
Well I didn’t have any egg whites on hand so I went forward with sweet potato purée and to my surprise they were great! My husband who is not full time on the paleo diet and remembers “regular” pancakes agreed with me heartily when I said “it’s amazing how pancake like these are.” Our toddlers are allergic to cinnamon so we used allspice and nutmeg. 1/4C of sweet potato purée per egg. I have to admit the toddlers were not sold on them until we added raisins in our latest batch, but I think they’re asserting independence more than expressing true opinions haha. They loved them with raisins! Oh, I also added a bit of flax meal. I might try them again with egg whites or some egg whites some sweet potatoes (thanks Jody!) just because ours were not as filling as others have mentioned them being. We also followed the commenter below by baking them at 400F for 10-12 minutes rather than using a pan. Anyway I know I made a lot of modifications but thanks George for the great basic recipe! They are easy and convenient and I don’t miss the old kind of pancakes one bit when I’m eating them! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0GYdEX6lqQ

In 1995, an animated feature film created by Pixar was released to the world. This movie brought to life what a child’s imagination could only dream of. This movie also gave us two of the most iconic characters voiced by two well-known actors. When you think Toy Story, you think Buzz Lightyear and Woody and you think Tim Allen and Tom Hanks.
The happiness that I feel from the above picture is indescribable. My childhood is what I see right there. Tim Allen has been a part of my life for a long time. He is a Colorado born actor who has been making us laugh, cry, and smile since 1975. He started out as a comedian doing stand-up shows for years. But in 1991, he landed the perfect role that I remember seeing him in for the first time. In Home Improvement he was known as Tim “The Tool-Man” Taylor. I vividly remember watching this show every week and I still love watching re-runs once the show ended in 1999.
Oh the happiness! And the laughter.
Tim Allen has been making us laugh until we cried for years on the big and small screen. And I am thankful for every moment I have laughed so hard I couldn’t breathe and for the few times he has given a performance that has brought me to tears… Toy Story 3 still makes me cry every single time.
UGH MY HEART….
But the reason we are having A Tim Allen Celebration:
TODAY IS TIM ALLEN’S 61st BIRTHDAY!!!!!!
Therefore, I feel that it is important that we take a moment to celebrate, not just by watching Toy Story for the billionth time, but by maybe watching The Santa Clause (even though its June) or Galaxy Quest or Jungle 2 Jungle or ALL 9 seasons of Home Improvement. Any or ALL these choices would be a spectacular choice.
Okay, Does everyone know what time it is???? TOOL TIME!
The Santa Clause – 1994
Toy Story – 1995
Jungle 2 Jungle – 1997 (not the best quality)
Toy Story 2 – 1999
Galaxy Quest – 1999 NEVER GIVE UP NEVER SURRENDER!
Toy Story 3 – 2010
Buzz’s Spanish Mode!
There are so many more movies we could add, but these are the ones that really resonated with me for sure.
Happy Birthday Tim Allen! We can’t wait to hear your voice again in Toy Story 4! But until then keep flying
