All About X-box
Choppy waters The Xbox was quickly followed by release dates in Japan (February 22, 2002) and Europe (March 14, 2002), however neither market responded to the system with the same fervor as North America. Only 123,000 Xbox systems were sold in Japan in the first week after launch, confirming Microsoft's concern that the system would struggle to gain traction in the famously competitive international market.

Pinocchio Movie Review
Since his creation in the late 1800s, the wooden figurine who dreams of being a real boy has starred in many highly recognisable stories. Many adaptations, especially the Disney version from 1940, set the blueprint for how the tale played out. In 2022, a modern version of Pinocchio accomplishes what many of its contemporaries missed; imbuing every component with a great sense of pathos.

Stan Lee
I had trouble thinking of someone notable who I would not only be able to find a biography on, but also a person that I would enjoy reading a biography about. However, I have finally landed on a biography of Stan Lee, the man who made Marvel one of the biggest names in modern American culture. The title of the Biography is “Stan Lee: The Man Behind Marvel” which covers his upbringing in depression era America and chronicles his life events and accomplishments. One major developmental theory I would like to include in this project is the Nature vs Nurture theory. Stan Lee grew up in depression era America but became one of the most influential men of modern times. I believe that Nature/Nurture debate would be a great fit for this project.

Reflecting On Every Cast Member From 'My 600-lb Life' Who Has Passed Away
Anyone who has ever watched the TLC show My 600-lb Life knows that the show's message is really a warning - food addiction can and will eventually kill someone. It's inspirational to watch the success stories and we like to talk about the people who arrive in Houston, Texas to receive the help of Dr. Younan Nowzaradan, but it's also sad to watch people fail. Unfortunately, since the show began, 10 lives have ended due to their battle.

The Ten People You Meet When You’re Autistic
Part of this article was published in my blog at Angelnickirocks.Blogspot.com. I was recently thinking about all of the different places I’ve been, places where I’ve lived or worked or gone to school. It seems to me that I meet the same people everywhere I go. I was able to categorize these people into ten categories.

Villain Personality Test: Darth Vader
His suit. His voice. His deep, labored breathing that lets you know the end is near. Darth Vader is the first and greatest Dark Lord ever to grace the silver screen. From his beginning as a Jedi to his tragic fall to evil, he's become synonymous with the fallen hero and has almost single-handedly launched the Star Wars franchise into legend. For almost 50 years, he's cast a shadow spanning all of pop culture. But how well do we really know him? What drives this dark conqueror? Is it ego? Fear? Or just sheer cruelty? Today, we will attempt what no one in the Galactic Republic ever has: we will give Darth Vader a personality test.

What Is The Funny?
Here I am on another Saturday night, staring at a screen and wondering what to do with myself. I spent most of the day at a book sale for a community organization and have just finished two separate earlier reads that I had put aside for far too long. I have also willfully sacrificed some other books for Montreal’s Livre-Service book boxes (a perfect way to contribute to public reading and a method of discovering what else is out there to cudgel the brains). As I cleaned up, I discovered some writings I had left on a shelf and wondered about for quite some time: S.J. Perlman’s New Yorker writings were there, a torn back cover and an intact front cover with the title The Rising Gorge. I had only read two or three pieces in it before abandoning it as a well-intentioned work of comedy that did not make me laugh. And now, as I attempted to read something light – Angela Carter and Mohsin Hamid were the writers I had imbibed earlier – I found the same difficulties facing me. I simply did not find it funny.
