  1. What To Watch On YouTube Right Now – Part 153

    Welcome back my readers, YouTube viewers and all others who followed this series of articles focused on YouTube videos worth watching.

    Have you been searching for something fun or interesting to watch on YouTube? Do you feel bored right now and you crave for something to see on the world’s most popular online video destination?

    I recommend you check out the following videos I found.

    #1 Reaction Videos of The Transformers: The Movie – I can hardly believe it has been forty years since The Transformers: The Movie was first released. Following its disappointing theatrical run, the animated feature film became highly pursued by Transformers fans as soon as it was released on home video, and me and my friends enjoyed it a lot. It’s theatrical disappointment never stopped it from becoming a classic for Transformers fans and its importance in pop culture has been established solidly. By today’s standards, The Transformers: The Movie is a showcase of not only high-quality animation and a great lineup of characters, it also has the fine vocal performances of entertainment legends Orson Welles, Peter Cullen (who died recently), Leonard Nimoy, Scatman Crothers, Robert Stack, and Frank Welker. That said, it is not surprising that the 1986 animated film is featured in many movie reaction videos and I found the most entertaining ones for you to enjoy.

    #2 Summer Bargains in Japan – Are there a lot of bargains offered by your local grocery or department stores during the summer season? In Japan, as captured by Nippon TV, a grocery store organized “all-you-can-stuff” events that offered customers the golden opportunities to accumulate as many fresh vegetables (sourced from the summer produce of local farms) as they can for a fixed rate per attempt. Watching this Nippon TV video is entertaining and informative. I encourage you all to watch it from start to finish.

    #3 1978 Interview Clip of Ingrid Bergman – If you have seen the classic movie Casablanca, you would remember the radiant beauty of Ingrid Bergman and her on-screen romance with Humphrey Bogart’s character. A few years before she passed away, Bergman was interviewed on TV and I posted below a short video excerpt for you to see. Not only will you learn from Bergman a notable revelation about her co-star’s presence behind the scenes of Casablanca’s production, you will see how intellectual and insightful she was. Go watch the video below.

    #4 The Indiana Jones Game Konami Was Never Allowed to Make – Time for retro gaming! Back in the 1980s, Konami was a very prolific producer of video games for both arcades and consoles. In 1987, Konami released Arumana no Kiseki for the Nintendo Family Computer (Famicom) disk system. What struck me when I first played the game was the many creative elements it shared with the 1984 film Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. The playable action hero was designed with close resemblance to Indiana Jones (complete with the fedora). The game even had locations that looked like they were ripped off from the 1984 movie. To learn more about Arumana no Kiseki, who created it and why it had lots of Indiana Jones-related elements in it, watch the video below.

    #5 Roger Moore Technically Played James Bond in The Cannonball Run – Released in 1981, The Cannonball Run was an all-star comedy film with an emphasis on racing and stunts. It was heavily inspired by a real-life illegal cross-country motor race that happened in America in the 1970s and the movie had the very popular celebrities of the time like Burt Reynolds, Dom DeLuise, Farrah Fawcett and Roger Moore. Moore, who was already famous as the cinematic James Bond, technically played Agent 007 in The Cannonball Run. If you are curious and you want to know more, go watch Calvin Dyson’s retrospective of the movie and Moore’s presence.

    #6 Jerusalem Walk Video – During the day-off of the Israel pilgrimage tour I joined in 2023, I took the rare opportunity to explore the city of Jerusalem on foot. I started the day at the Old City of Jerusalem where I visited the Temple Mount, the Western Wall and other holy sites before marching all the way to the modern part of Jerusalem going as far as the famous Mahane Yehuda market. This Jerusalem walk video brings back memories to me and if you love world travel, I encourage you to watch it.

  4. Whomp, there it is! We did a sports feature on a fringe form of fishing in North Dakota that is both ancient and nascent — walleye whomping! And of course, your intrepid reporter had to give it a try himself.

    Experience in an adaptable form of martial art such as Jeet Kune Do or Mantis Shrimp Kung Fu will greatly increase your chances in this fishy game of patience, focus, speed and strength. I used blind luck.

    Note: Because of dramatic differences in teeth and spawning habits, catfish noodling techniques are strongly discouraged when going after North Dakota walleye. Additionally, steel mesh or chainmail gauntlet-style gloves seem like a smart idea but will only slow you down.

    Happy whomping!

  23. gevelsteen op de hoofdtoren in Hoorn.
    Deze is een halfronde, laat-gotische verdedigingstoren met een vijfhoekige onderbouw, gebouwd in 1532–1534 ter bescherming van de haveningang en het in 1464 aangelegde Houten Hoofd (de aanlegsteiger voor zeeschepen). De toren staat op de zuidelijkste punt van de oude stad, direct bij de toegang tot de Oude Haven.
    De zeezijde is voor het grootste deel bekleed met witte Gobertange-kalksteen , vermoedelijk om de toren als baken voor de scheepvaart zichtbaar te maken vanaf de toenmalige Zuiderzee.
    De stadszijde is opgetrokken uit baksteen met decoratieve speklagen van dezelfde natuursteen.
    Oorspronkelijk had de stadszijde een trapgevel; in 1651 werd deze veranderd in een tuitgevel toen de klokkentoren werd opgericht.
    Bovenop de gevel staan twee gebeeldhouwde leeuwen die een wereldbol vasthouden.
    De muren zijn ca. 1,5 m dik en bevatten nog dichtgemetselde schietgaten voor grootvuur.
    GEVELSTEEN: Op de zeezijde van de Hoofdtoren bevindt zich, in een aedicula-achtige omlijsting met segmentfronton, een ruimtelijk weergegeven rode eenhoorn als houder van het stadswapen van Hoorn.
