The treadmill screening of ‘THE LONG WALK’ took place, where every person had to walk on a treadmill faster than 3MPH for the whole movie.

If they stopped, they were escorted out of the theater.

Quite the legacy. Top bloke.
Robert “Ed” Smylie, the NASA official who saved the Apollo 13 crew in 1970, has died at 95. He cobbled together an apparatus made of cardboard, plastic bags and duct tape after an explosion crippled the spacecraft as it sped toward the moon. nyti.ms/3Sbusb3

TRUTH: The massive fire that destroyed Altadena was not a “forest fire.” The fire had nothing to do with forest management or water policy.

2. Very low relative humidity
3. Santa Ana winds reaching 100 mph

Good Morning ☕ and Happy New Years Eve🍾🥂

When you look back on this past year don't think of the pain

Think of the strength you gained and appreciate how far you've come

You've been through a lot and also grown a lot

Give yourself credit for your resilience and step forward again with grace
