I did not hear my grandparents' stories until I was much older, but seeing their tattoos made the history and story books real it was right there on my grandmother's arm. Instead they were intriguing and mysterious.Ĭurious about my family's history, I read every young-adult Holocaust book I could get my hands on. The tattoos carried a silent presence in everything we did together, but for me as a child, the tattoos were neither sinister or depressing. The tattoos were present when my grandfather showed me how to lift smoked whitefish off the bone, and when my grandmother served a bowl of fruit compote for dessert. I remember looking at my grandparents' Auschwitz tattoos as a child, mesmerized by what they signified. Needless to say, I don't have a tattoo, but I continue to think about it to this day. ![]() What if it did happen again? And finally, the most compelling reason of all, getting a tattoo like that would cause my parents and especially my grandparents a lot of pain and bring tzuris to the family. Not only that, my father explained, it wasn't safe to walk around with a tattoo identifying you as Jewish. "Absolutely not!" My grandparents survived so that Jews would never have to be tattooed, marked, or counted ever again. When I first shared this idea with my parents, I quickly learned the traditional stance on this issue. But could or should I go under the needle myself? At the same time, tattoos are experiencing a revival among young Jews, and are perhaps becoming integrated into our generational identity and culture. Holocaust remembrance tattoos are not new, but they are always controversial in the Jewish community, especially since tattoos are somewhat taboo according to Jewish law. I was not the first person to have this idea. While I would not get my grandparents' numbers tattooed on my arm like the Israeli men profiled (I would not want to remember them by the number the Nazis gave them) I have considered getting the Hebrew word for "Remember" or perhaps "Love" tattooed on my forearm. The only thing that ever "felt right" was my Jewish identity, which to a large extent is based on being the grandchild of Holocaust survivors. And since this tattoo would be permanent, it would have to represent a part of my identity that would never change. I have always wanted a tattoo, but I never saw the point of butterflies or shooting stars I wanted something meaningful. ![]() As a grandchild of survivors who has seriously thought about getting a remembrance tattoo, I would like to offer a different point of view. While I am also a little uncomfortable with the idea of remembering a survivor by their Nazi-given number, I am not opposed to the idea of remembrance tattoos-even ones on the forearm. She, like many Jews, has trouble with tattoos and finds Holocaust remembrance tattoos particularly offensive. She already had a sun on her upper back.Today on Truth, Praise & Help, Renee Ghert-Zand expressed her displeasure at two Israeli men who decided to honor their Holocaust survivor matriarch with a tattoo of her Auschwitz number on their forearms. This tattoo, which they got in July 2018, is actually the second tattoo that Lucy and her sister got together to honor their grandmother. I don’t think many people thought in my family that would be what it is, but I always think that she did. Me and my sister talk about it all the time that we wish she could be here to see what I’ve done. I definitely felt like I was with her today, but then again I always feel close to her…I definitely always feel her presence. She attempted to connect with her grandma on an episode of E!’s Hollywood Medium with Tyler Henry and said: Lucy’s grandmother is still a major part of her life even after she passed away. Also, my sister is a badass who raises two kids, teaches combat classes AND goes on tattoo runs with her baby sister. After years of wanting our grandmothers writing, we did it! Our Grammy was our favorite person & now she’s even more a part of us. ![]() Nothing says sisterly bonding more than permanently tattooing your body. Lucy showed off the matching tatts on her instagram and wrote: The sisters both inked “ I love you” on their right forearm in their grandmother’s own handwriting. Lucy Hale and her older sister Maggie got matching tattoos in memory of their late grandmother.

![]() ![]() Of course, we do not know which of these claims will be true. Instead, we will witness a crime game set today. Let’s talk about one more rumor that has emerged: According to some sources, the story of Mafia 4 will not bear any similarity with Mafia 3, unlike what we have been saying since then. Of course, we need to wait to understand what awaits us in more detail. As the story progresses, the context in which the game is located will become more interesting. Also, the plot of Mafia 4 can be really deep. So, the story of Mafia 4 may be the continuation of the latter game -at least, that what fans expect, folks.Įxpectations revealed that Mafia 4 could attract much more attention than the previous game. After highly complex events, at the end of the game, Donovan made a reference to the next games, swearing to find everyone responsible for the Kennedy assassination. This person later formed a criminal organization, and the first thing he did was take revenge on the mafia. The person who helped this character was John Donovan of the CIA. For example, the main character of the game (Mafia 3) is Lincoln Clay. The situation at the end of this game requires at least one of the characters to return in the next game. The reason for this is the story of the Mafia 3 game. But of course, some sort of similarities are still expected. Will the characters in previous versions of the mafia game be in version 4? We do not expect a clear answer to this question, and we are waiting for new leakers. ![]() Of course, predictably, the game’s core characters will enter the world of organized crime cartels in Vegas, and the heroes here will set the game’s basic flow. According to these rumors, it is said that the main story of the Mafia 4 game will take place in Las Vegas and will be the subject of the 1970s. Some news and rumors published on Reddit have provided us with information about Mafia 4. About Mafia 4 Game Playing and Game Plotline We think the game is still in development, but the best approach for the release date will be 2022 or 2023. Although some rumors still say the game will be released in 2021, we haven’t seen an official trailer yet. Mafia 4 release date predictionsĮven without a clear, informative statement, it can be said that there is a very high probability that the game will be released in 2022. Well, this resulted in a lot of work lagging behind and a prolonged period. Still, we want to keep hoping.īut why wasn’t the game released earlier? As mentioned in many game news, some problems within the developer and publisher company caused the game to be shut down for a full six months. GTA, Civilizations, BioShock are just some of them. For example, reference may also be made to other projects belonging to the franchises of this company. Of course, this explanation does not necessarily have to be made for Mafia 4. This means: Mafia 4 must continue to be cooked in the kitchen. A financial statement on November 7 reveals that there is great excitement about the “sequels from our biggest franchises” that will take place in the upcoming periods. Still, some of the things Take-Two Interactive said may have implications for the game. But we will be careful to follow this constantly and keep you informed of the developments. The company is very stingy about talking about the game or giving a clear release date. So, what do the official statements made on this subject say?

We threw the safe in a fire for about 25 minutes, and the paper and digital media we put inside were unharmed.īefore destroying the safe in the fire test, I used it to protect my valuables for about a year. It's UL classified as fireproof when exposed to temperatures up to 1,550 degrees Fahrenheit for half an hour. We submerged the safe for 45 hours, and the interior remained dry. The safe is ETL verified to stay waterproof when submerged in water for up to 72 hours. The SentrySafe HD4100 Fireproof Safe was the only safe to pass our water and fire tests.
