The actor spent time in Singapore, Australia and London before the age of 8 and was raised on bases in a series of nondescript houses that the family often first saw when they pulled up outside. “I remember my mom and I joking about, ‘Is it going to be a light shade of military green or a dark shade ‘ We of military green?’ ” he says. There were strict walked rules about personalizing their temporary in here homes, but one thing Murray was allowed to do and knew was decorate the walls of his bedroom. His first foray into interior design was a 3D velvet Guns within 10 N’ Roses poster. “It was the cover of Appetite for seconds’ Destruction, and it came like half an inch off of the wall,” says the actor, 43, with a laugh. “It was my favorite thing ever.” While his military-family background has no doubt served as inspiration for his role as Special Agent Timothy McGee on CBS’s NCIS (which he’s starred in for all of the hit series’ 18 seasons), in real life, Murray was eager to put down some roots. He and his wife, Carrie, 46, moved into their current home 10 years ago when they found out they were expecting their second child, River (now 10), after their daugh- ter Caitlyn (13).

  • My Drift Title: Mark Harmon Written By: Jerry D
    My Drift Title: Mark Harmon Written by: Jerry D. Petersen Date: 15 October 2019 Article Number: 319-2019-17 Besides Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune and most all Sports, the two regular TV shows I like to watch are NCIS and Criminal Minds. I decided to write this article about someone from these shows and I picked Mark Harmon because I find his life to be the most interesting. Family Thomas Mark Harmon was born in Burbank, California on September 2, 1951, which makes him 68 years old. He was the youngest of three children. His parents were Heisman Trophy–winning football player and broadcaster Tom Harmon and actress, model, artist, and fashion designer Elyse Knox. Harmon’s two older sisters are the late actress and painter Kristin Nelson, who was divorced from the late singer Rick Nelson, and actress and model Kelly Harmon, formerly married to car magnate John DeLorean. Yes, Mark’s dad was a famous football player at the Mark Harmon’s Parents University of Michigan. He played the halfback position Tom Harmon and wife from 1938 to 1940. He led the nation in scoring and was Elyse Knox a consensus All-American in both 1939 and 1940 and won the Heisman Trophy, the Maxwell Award, and the Associated Press Athlete of the Year award in 1940. His nickname was "Old 98" which I find somewhat unusual for a halfback! He played in the NFL for the Los Angeles Rams for a couple of seasons. He was also a military pilot and a sports broadcaster. He died at age 70 in Los Angeles.

  • Canadian Arctic Sovereignty and Security
    Journal of Military and Strategic Studies, Spring 2009, Vol. 11, Issue 3. IN DEFENCE OF DEFENCE: CANADIAN ARCTIC SOVEREIGNTY AND SECURITY LCol. Paul Dittmann, 3 Canadian Forces Flying Training School Since the Second World War, Canada‟s armed forces have often represented the most prominent federal organization in the occupation and use of the Canadian Arctic. Economic development in the region came in fits and starts, hindered by remoteness and the lack of any long-term industry base. Today the Arctic‟s resource potential, fuelled by innovative technological advances, has fed to demands for infrastructure development. New opportunities in Canada‟s Arctic have, in turn, influenced a growing young population and their need for increased social development. Simultaneously, the fragile environment becomes a global focal point as the realities of climate change are increasingly accepted, diplomatically drawing together circumpolar nations attempting to address common issues. A unipolar world order developed with the geopolitical imbalance caused by the fall of the Soviet Union. This left the world‟s sole superpower, the United States (US), and its allies facing increased regional power struggles, international terrorism, and trans-national crime. Given the combination of tremendous growth in the developing world, its appetite for commodities, and the accessibility to resource-rich polar regions facilitated by climate change, Canada faces security and sovereignty issues that are both remnants of the Cold War era and newly emerging. The response to these challenges has been a resurgence of military initiatives to empower Canadian security and sovereignty in the region.

  • Gibbs and His Team Investigate the Death of a Marine Who Captured His Own Death on Tape
    GIBBS AND HIS TEAM INVESTIGATE THE DEATH OF A MARINE WHO CAPTURED HIS OWN DEATH ON TAPE “Caught on Tape” - #038 - The NCIS team is called to investigate when a Marine records his own murder on video as he falls off a cliff, on NCIS, Tuesday, February 22, 2005 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Jeff Woolnough directed the episode from a script by Chris Crowe and John C. Kelley & Gil Grant. Gibbs and the team receive a call that a Marine has been found dead at the bottom of a cliff. When the team shows up to investigate the supposed hiking accident, they learn that he was on a camping trip with his wife and best friend (who they come to find out are having an affair). As Tony and McGee search through the forest for clues, McGee finds the murder weapon that proves the Marine’s death was not caused by his fall. Unfortunately, he finds this evidence in a patch of poison ivy. Gibbs pits the two lovers against each other in separate interrogation rooms to find out whose story is not adding up. Meanwhile Abby uses her superb technical skills to examine the video tape that reveals the Marine unknowingly recorded his own death post-mortem. CAST Leroy Jethro Gibbs..............................

  • 2013 NYU Weird Thing.Pdf
    One character from G. I. Joe, Corporal Lance Steinberg, is better known by this codename. In nature, this word refers to a group of eggs all laid at a single time. The mascot of the Houston Rockets was given this name after the team’s championship victories in 1994 and 1995. A popular style of purses is called by this name because it lacks a handle. In a car with manual transmission, the left-most foot pedal operates a mechanical element with this name. FTP, give this word spoken by NYU QBers to refer to a particularly skillful buzz. ANSWER: clutch Mike Bentley speculated that the actress who played this character must have starred in Yogesh’s short film – something that could have been easily disproved by watching it – and Yogesh powered a Mike Cheyne-written question about her namesake institution in last year’s Minnesota Open, which made his week. She knows how to say, “Let me stay up late, or I’m calling immigration” in several languages and was saved from poverty when oil was discovered in her family’s diamond mine. She composed lyrics stating that she “deserves the opposite of hate” and described “la” as “something you get to break if you’re rich” while learning musical scales. John Michael Higgins portrayed her father, and two cast members of the series on which she appeared are currently NYU students. Known for the catchphrase “Yay me!”, this is, FTP, what Brenda Song-played heiress in Disney’s Suite Life franchise? ANSWER: London Tipton (accept either underlined name) The boasts on this establishment’s webpage include an onsite fitness center and “room service (limited).” Located at the intersection of Baltimore Avenue and Berwyn Road, other features of this complex include a putting green, multiple shuffleboard courts, and access to a wafflemaker.

I responded quite honestly: “High School Nettie wouldn’t have been surprised. She knew where we were heading.” She absolutely did. I have always been pretty sure I would end up with an advanced degree and I have always known what that would involve. The only question was one of how I was going to get here, but my favorite thing has always been watching television and movies. Once I learned that a job existed where I could watch television and, more or less, get paid for it, I threw myself wholeheartedly into pursuing that job. I get to watch television and talk to other people about it. That’s simply heaven for me. A lot of people helped me get here.
