Transworld Security: Best Security Company in Canada
When talking about keeping ourselves and our stuff safe, it's like saying old habits die hard. You've probably heard it from your grandpa, but using tricky passwords that even you can't remember or asking for a code before letting anyone peek into your digital life is like putting a big, fat lock on your front door. And seriously, who doesn't update their phone or computer? It's like refusing to change the oil in your car and then wondering why it broke down.
Transworld SecurityPublished 7 days ago in ServeThe ‘Net Worth’ of Legacy & Mickey Markoff’s Vision
This article was previously published by Mickey Markoff on his website. In a world where the measure of success is often quantified by financial metrics, the true essence of 'net worth' can sometimes be overshadowed by the glare of dollar signs. We see this often with the commercialization of holidays. Memorial Day is no exception. Despite its true meaning being that of gratitude and somber reflection upon the sacrifices of our nation’s heroes, the takeaway of the day for many is the store sales. However, one man with a vision set out to change that in the 1990s, and never looked back. Decades later, Mickey Markoff, Executive Producer of the Hyundai Air and Sea Show, now has a diverse team behind him to help carry out that vision. Each year on Memorial Day Weekend, the Hyundai Air and Sea Show unfolds on Miami Beach, redefining the conventional metrics of value and success. The Air and Sea Show, conceived and nurtured by visionary Mickey Markoff, serves as a testament to a different kind of 'net worth'—one measured not in currency, but in honor, gratitude, and national pride for those who dedicate their lives to serving our country.

Gold flashes at the edge of my eyes marked the beginning of my saga after my twenty thousand steps in Machu Picchu in Peru. After the Citadel, we walked around at an even higher altitude in Peru's Lake Titicaca and Puno area. The altitude of 12,810 feet at Sillustani, a pre-Inca burial site, was our highest.

Who holds the title of the world's most renowned spy? Undoubtedly, it is the fictional British Secret Service agent, James Bond, a creation of writer Ian Fleming in 1953. Yet, who is the most famous non-fictional British spy? The answer may lie in Sidney Reilly, also known as 'The Ace of Spies,' the real-life inspiration for James Bond. He met his demise while on duty in Russia in 1925, orchestrated by the vigilant Joseph Stalin.

Introduction: In recent times, chaos unfolded in Iraq as a ruthless gang of ISIS commandos launched a brazen attack on the US Embassy, prompting a swift response from a highly trained thirty-man platoon. This incident raises questions about the differences between the US Marines and the regular Army, often mistakenly interchanged in popular culture. Despite both being integral parts of the US military, the Marines and Army serve distinct roles, each with its unique capabilities and responsibilities.

The 2nd Lieutenant Acting TAC officer looked and sounded so ridiculous as he chewed us out, that I snickered and that set him off like a bottle-rocket. The veins popping out in his neck, he shouted "You think this is funny, candidate? You won't laugh on TAC Tuesday!" After he stormed out of the platoon area, we doubled over in laughter.

Another Silent Night
I want to make it home this year, knowing the chances are slim to none, but one can try. Instead of fighting traffic and battling crowds trying to buy last minute gifts. I am fighting to stay alive and battling against others who are doing their best to make sure I never see home again. Such is the life of a pawn, in this game of political ambition and foolish pride.

OK, I signed up for this job, so I have nothing to complain about. In fairness, though, I volunteered shortly after basic while I was in the middle of AIT (Advanced Infantry Training). The idea of running around Afghanistan with a rifle wasn’t my idea of a good time. So, when a couple of sergeants with a cluster of ribbons on their chests came into our training area and asked for a few volunteers, my hand shot up. I didn’t even know what the job was, but I figured it had to be a step up from being a grunt. That’s how I ended up in the Army’s Bomb Disposal Unit.

It was a hot, humid night in late July, and a monsoon was rolling in. There were less than ten of us, sweating around a fire, silent in a way I had never experienced with these people before. There were veterans, active military, kids who were poised to join. And a precious few were like me, patriots who were allowed, for a few moments, to look deeper into the lives of those who dedicated themselves to their country.
