What Hell is like for an audiophile who really likes his old vinyl records. Black Sabbath, Blue Cheer, Jimi Hendrix records that are just sitting there but cannot be played because of a missing turntable needle!

From the visionary mind of Academy Award-winning filmmaker Ron Howard, “Jim Henson Idea Man” promises to take us on a journey into the imagination of one of the greatest creative minds of our time. From his humble beginnings in puppeteering on local television to the global phenomenon of Sesame Street and The Muppet Show, Henson’s influence on entertainment cannot be overstated. Set to debut on May 31st, “Jim Henson Idea Man” is not just a documentary, but a celebration of the man’s legacy.
Though Jim Henson left us too soon in 1990, his spirit lives on through his works, continuing to captivate audiences of all ages. And for those fortunate enough to have crossed paths with him, like puppeteer Mike Quinn who learned directly from Henson himself, the memory of his kindness and creativity remains a cherished treasure.
I still recall the very special evening my girlfriend and I spent chatting with Mike Quinn at a local convention a few years ago. As we sat with our drinks, he shared stories of learning from Jim Henson, vividly portraying Henson’s incredible character and love for his craft. Hearing firsthand accounts from someone who shared moments with such a legend was an experience I’ll never forget.

The tension surrounding TikTok’s fate in the United States has hit a critical point as the Senate greenlights a bill that could fundamentally alter the app’s future. The legislation, part of a broader package totaling $95 billion, demands TikTok’s sale to a U.S. owner within nine months, with a possible three-month extension if acquisition talks are underway. With a vote of 79-18, the Senate’s decision follows earlier approval in the House of Representatives.
The TikTok ban debate has been ongoing since 2020, with Montana being the first state to enact legislation limiting the app’s accessibility in app stores. Despite challenges to the bill’s feasibility and constitutionality, its proponents are pressing forward, prompting ongoing resistance from TikTok and its supporters. Senate Commerce Committee Chairwoman Maria Cantwell emphasized the bill’s aim to safeguard against potential threats posed by foreign actors, stressing the protection of American interests from espionage and surveillance.
At the heart of the debate lies concerns over user data privacy and the app’s algorithm, raising fears that Chinese-owned ByteDance could misuse or share data with the Chinese government. Despite TikTok’s assertion that a ban would stifle the export of American culture and values, the legislation advances amidst growing unease among users and content creators.
As the Tiktok ban bill awaits President Biden’s signature, the fate of the app hangs in the balance, awaiting a decision that could reshape the social media landscape.
