For these teens, pop culture - namely a show like “Fresh Off the Boat” - is their only connection to their parents and Chinese family members. ‘Old Dads’ Review: Bill Burr’s Directorial Debut Is a Hacky Netflix Comedy About Raising Kids in a Changing WorldĬhloe, Sadie, and Lily (who, the oldest, is on her way out of high school and soon into college) all express an eagerness to learn Mandarin, which isn’t part of their middle American high school education. The uncertainty surrounding their adoption stems from China’s One Child Policy, in effect from 1980 through 2015, which was meant to stimy China’s rapidly swelling population, but ultimately left many children displaced.

![]() ![]() The Fifth Element ( French: Le Cinquième Élément) is a 1997 English-language French science fiction film directed, co-written, and based on a story by Luc Besson. That's one avenue that could more easily open the door for a follow-up to the original story.According to The Fifth Element at Box Office Mojo Transcript Milla Jovovich, who played Leeloo in the film, told Collider that she'd be interested to see a rebooted "Fifth Element" with a brand new actress taking a crack at her character. So the cast of the original movie might not be able to do a grand reunion, but another one of the film's leads has her own idea about the story. I don't want to be active when I'm 80," he told The Sunday Times. ![]() "I'm 65 next year, 70 is around the corner. More recently, Gary Oldman - who brought the antagonist of "The Fifth Element" to life in a truly terrifying way - made it clear that he's eyeing retirement as well. Following that, Willis retired from acting, so he wouldn't be able to step back into Korben Dallas's shoes. Back in March 2022, Bruce Willis' family announced that he'd been diagnosed with aphasia, a neurological disorder that affects his ability to speak. Some of the biggest stars from "The Fifth Element" likely aren't going to be around for a sequel. In a 2011 interview with Moviefone, the director said that as much as he loved working on the film, "If I do another sci-fi one day, which I would love, I will do a complete new thing." Fans can always cross their fingers that Besson changes his mind. The complicated box office reception of "The Fifth Element" might have ruined the potential for a sequel, but is there any chance Besson will ever return to those 180 pages? It doesn't seem so. Besson essentially had an entire second movie ready to go. So the groundwork for a sequel was already in place way back in 1997. Naturally, plenty of Besson's original ideas had to be scrapped, and Kamen said, "The sequel would have been taking the other 180-page thing he had and working it into a script." Putting together the original film involved weeks of Kamen and Besson going over all the ideas for the characters and the world, shaping them into something that movie audiences could follow. Robert Mark Kamen helped Besson write the screenplay for "The Fifth Element," and in an interview with Uproxx, he revealed the faintest hints about the sequel he and Besson once planned. Besson told Screen Rant that the two of them eventually found a compromise that involved Willis only having to work four days a week, but he also had to sit right next to the director's chair, so he could be ready to go for every one of Besson's fast-paced shots. ![]() He and Bruce Willis had a tense relationship on set because their approaches to filmmaking were vastly different, with Besson moving at a much quicker speed. The film made just over $63 million in the U.S., which likely wasn't enough money for studios in the States to consider taking a risk on a sequel.Įven if the money had been there, Besson might not have been dying to get to work on a sequel. Finding the funding to make the movie was a challenge, and getting enough cash for round two would have been even harder because while "The Fifth Element" was a high earner internationally, it didn't do so well in the United States. That's nothing to sneeze at by today's standards, but in the late '90s, Luc Besson's sci-fi adventure was the most expensive European film ever produced. Creating "The Fifth Element" took a budget of $90 million. ![]() ![]() ![]() That year, with some further technical upgrades, the slightly restyled tractors were rebranded Porsche-Diesel. Despite generally good sales, Allgaier decided to move away from tractor manufacturing in 1955 and sold the Porsche licenses and their tractor factory, to Mannesmann AG, who built the same tractor in 1957. The Porsche air-cooled diesel had been substantially revised by then, and the tractor upgraded with new hydraulics and other modern features. The new design sold well and funds were rolling into Allgaier and Porsche’s bank accounts.Ī big upgrade in 1952 yielded the Porsche System tractors, like the model A-111 you saw in Tractor Talk back in 2008. By 1949, the elder Porsche had been released from prison and helped finalize a deal with Allgaier, an Austrian agricultural manufacturing company, to build the Porsche tractors under license. Porsche’s son, Ferry, held it together and finished the development of a tractor, among other things. At the end of the war, Porsche’s company was in disarray, but Dr. One of the main things to come out of the tractor projects was the type 313 air-cooled diesel, the design of which was complete by 1945. “About 1,000 Mannesmann-built Porsche-Diesel tractors were sold in North America.” Porsche himself was being held in a French prison for alleged war crimes. ![]() As a result, many war-ravaged firms saw agrarian manufacturing as a way to get back on their feet. After the German defeat, the Allied Occupation Government tried to convert Germany to an agrarian society (well, that didn’t work, did it?) and the manufacturing of agricultural products was pushed hard. The first Porsche tractors were very simple designs with a fluid clutch and air-cooled V-2 gasoline engines, but by the time they were ready for production, the war had taken over most of German industry, and like the civvy Volkswagen, not much happened. The wheels and seat should be a cream color for this year. The red color is correct for this era, but we are told by Porsche tractor expert Roland Lohnert that the yellow accents came only for 1962. ![]() Rated by the manufacturer at 25 hp, it featured three standard PTOs, two in the rear (5 rpm) and a center pulley-type PTO for a belly mower. The Standard Model 218 tractor was built starting in July of 1958 and continued into June of 1960 when it was replaced by an updated version in three possible configurations. The Schlepper was project number 111 with the Porsche firm, and some of the other project numbers with which you might be familiar are 356, 911, 914, 924, 944 and 928. ![]() By that time, Porsche had gained some prominence while developing the Volkswagen automobile it was so well accepted that the project yielded an additional charge from the Reich: the Volksschlepper, or the people’s tractor. His interest in tractors predated WWI, but he didn’t work on a serious design until 1934, when three prototypes were produced. Porsche had acquired a great deal of motor vehicle engineering experience. By the time he started his own engineering firm in 1931, Dr. Ferdinand Porsche (1875-1951) had his hands into just about everything with an engine. ![]() ![]() ![]() Do not format the SD card after installing, even if prompted to do so.

![]() Rom 8:27 And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers in harmony with God’s own will. The following verses may help explain why Christians give all the glory to God especially for the proper direction that he gives us throughout our lives on this earth: “why can’t a person like Jason feel inspired and motivated without thinking that “God has a plan” for him? why can’t he make a plan for himself, or a plan that benefits the people close to him? ![]() ![]() If I may, I’d like to address Matthew’s questions. What a breath of fresh air to find two wonderful young Christian men asserting themselves in such a positive and productive way! Jesus is smiling down from heaven! I found your website and blog via WorldNetDaily today. She choice to move forward radically altered the course of her life and the souls of countless people. Braving sickness, danger, and death on all sides, Mary never stopped moving forward in her quest to reach the lost souls of Africa with the life-giving gospel of Christ - becoming the cherished “White Ma” to entire tribes and an inspiration to thousands of missionaries to come. This praying girl’s full name was Mary Slessor and she went on to spend thirty-nine years among the unreached tribes of Africa’s Calabar region. She rolled over and prayed, “God, I want to go forward like David Livingstone. I’m twenty-seven years old, I work in a cotton mill twelve hours a day, six days a week, and the little spare time I have I spend helping out at church. Then she remember his famous words, “I don’t care where we go as long as we go forward.” Over 100 years ago a young woman named Mary from the town of Dundee, Scotland, lay in bed pondering the brave adventures of the great explorer, David Livingstone, who had just been buried in Westminster Abbey. He knew it was time to step up to the next rung of life’s ladder. He realized that he was getting stuck far below the potential God had given him. I knew He had some hard things for me to do.” Jason concluded by sharing that he was now planning to switch gears and attend law school, with the goal of advocating for pro-life groups. “Not that a steady working life isn’t God’s plan for some,” Jason wrote, “but I was feeling empty and knew that God had more abundant plans for me. Jason, a twentysomething from Florida, wrote us to share how that lately he’d grown complacent with his life, just working his job and getting by. Our ultimate goal is to cross over to the other side. We’re comfortable, yes, but we were never intended to get cozy on a stepping-stone. Or, to use a different analogy, it is as if we are sitting on a stepping-stone in the middle of a stream. We stop exerting ourselves and get comfortable halfway up the ladder. Most of us, however, are not so passionate, tending to get comfortable just living life and getting by - neither giving our current activities the energy they deserve nor dreaming of anything better than what we already have. ![]() Obscurity cannot succeed in hiding a man like Roosevelt - and it never will. He will not serve before obscure men.” That certainly was the case with Teddy Roosevelt who gave everything he had to everything he did. Solomon wrote in the book of Proverbs, “Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will serve before kings. He neither despised the day of small things nor got stuck before he’d reached the peak of his potential. Theodore Roosevelt’s life is an amazing example of a man who lived every day as if it were his last, worked every job as if he’d never have another, and in the end found himself as President of the United States. Thomas Huxley was wrong about a lot of things, but he was right when he wrote, “The rung of a ladder was never meant to rest upon, but only to hold a man’s foot long enough to enable him to put the other somewhat higher.” ![]() ![]() The shooter aspects of the game are standard, including a variety of projectile and energy weapons and explosives.

Jedi Academy also features a multiplayer mode that allows players to compete in several different game modes online or over a local area network. In addition to customizing their lightsaber and Force powers, players can also modify Jaden's appearance, choosing their species, gender and clothing. The lightsaber combat has been slightly improved and both the player and enemies can now wield standard, double-bladed or dual lightsabers.

Definitely enough to get you rolling on several projects the MultiMaster excels on, but still a far cry from a well equipped OMT accessory arsenal. Basically, you get sandpaper, a sanding pad, bimetal blade and a scraper. However that excitement won’t last long when you realize 20 of those 23 accessories are sandpaper triangles.

Included bagWhen Fein sent us their MultiMaster Start Q and some accessories, including their dust collection kit, we were excited to see how it stacked up to recent competition. The Start Q is light on accessories but heavy on value It was time to see what Fein is shipping out their doors these days, which led us to this review of both the Fein MultiMaster Start Q, and their optional Dust Collection Kit. But that age also started to reveal a few wrinkles in particular the lack of a tool-free accessory change, and the very frustrating loosening of accessories under load with the original hex-key accessory design. Despite it’s age, it continued to serve me well. That intrigue naturally led to a purchase of my first Fein MultiMaster many, many years ago. It was from Germany, orange, really expensive, and could do things no other tool could. Back in my formative years of home improvement, my mentor and tool guru Richard described an almost mystical tool. That’s right, “Das Original”, the Fein MultiMaster.
