Tragedy
struck on September 1, 2008 when Don LaFontaine,
voiceover great, passed away in an LA
hospital at around 2pm local time.
The
'Voice of God' was admitted to the hospital in
August suffering with a blood clot. An official
statement
on the Don LaFontaine website read;
"physicians at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in
Los Angeles. Unfortunately, his treatments
left him depleted. In the last week of his life,
Don fought hard and appeared to be
stabilizing
but he ultimately succumbed to the many
complications brought on by the side effects
of the treatments."
LaFontaine
was the voice master behind some 750,000 TV
commercials and over 5,000 movies. His
booming, flawless voice, though copied by many,
was the benchmark in all trailers throughout the
world.
He
began his 48 year career as a movie producer, and
accidently fell into a voiceover role when the
original actor failed to show up. Since that day,
he has shaped the movie industry with his cheery
personality.
Father
of two and loving husband, "The Don"
will leave a large hole in all our hearts.He was
68.

Return
to TyCorp
|
|
Welcome
back to TyCorp!
So, we're back and ready for another shot at the
website. By now you're wondering; "Why should
I be
back? What's in it for me? What's TyCorp? Why am I
here?". Well, prepare to be answered!
Gone
are the days of Melbourne, of purpose, of
wonderment. We're in a new year, and like most
years,
we're once again interested in this website. So!
What's new? Well...
TyCorp News - a TyCam Media production,
bringing you all the latest pointless headlines in
video format!
TyCAM - TyCam is back as TyCAM. The
new format will include video versions of the type
of thing found
on TyCam back in the day.
TyCorp Reality - From the guy who brought
you TyCorp Big Brother (and the UnCut version)
comes a
more exciting, more sexy reality web show. Casting
begins now.
TyCorp.com.au - That's right! We're moving
to a paid website! Now bigger, better, and more
"official".
In your face, FuzzCorp!
We'll still be here for all the 15-year-old fun we
used to have before we got a life and a job and a
drug
addiction as a result of said life and job. The
world has changed, but in many ways, TyCorp is
still the
same. A website about nothing. A way to keep
intouch. A dream. A Passion. A nerdy past-time...
TyCorp.
Now Bigger, Better, with more beautiful girls!
-Ty
CEO, President, God.

21
Years ago a bunch of drunken people gave birth to
a generation of Gods. It's coming to the August/
September months of 2007 and all those Gods are
celebrating their 21st Birthday!
Myself and all TyCorp represents would like to
extend a very Happy Birthday to all those born in
1986,
and most notably Andrew, Dean, and Stuart. Best
pals 'til the end of time and beyond.
Furthermore,
I am hereby announcing this invitation to all my
great friends to join me at my celebrations of
my birthday on Saturday September 8. Much fun will
be had by all. Are you one of my great friends?
Well,
if you had to ask that question, then you probably
aren't!
Happy Birthday Everyone!

Quick
Service Restaurants to cut the fat.
|
|
Australia's
biggest names in Fast Food agreed with the Federal
Government to phase out the use of
trans fats in their food this week. The agreement
came after Federal Assistant Health Minister
Christopher
Pyne threatened that trans fat levels on foods
would have to be declared if a voluntary
reduction
was not agreed to.
However, while the agreement did appear to be
unanimous, the Sydney
Morning Herald this morning
reports that Yum! Restaurants, which owns KFC
and Pizza
Hut, has issued a statement saying
they would not change the palm oil they cook with,
even though it contains trans fats.
The company says the amount of trans fats in palm
oil is "extremely low", but the Heart
Foundation
and other nutritionists do not think that makes it
ok.
And while McDonald's sport a new Heart Tick
Approved Menu, it is still clear that The Burgers
Are Better
At Hungry Jack's.

Microsoft
Strikes TyCorp!
|
|
It's
finally happened. At the start of 2007 (some 7
years after the original TyCorp was born),
Microsoft put
"Phishing Warning" on TyCorp Australia.
This prevented people from accessing the site at
all, without
removing a special filter on Microsoft's newest
Internet Explorer.
Phishing is a term used by Microsoft for websites
that steal personal information from their viewers
without
the visitors knowing. TyCorp does not steal any
personal information from it's viewers. As TyCorp
uses
GeoCities
to host the site, we advise you to visit their
website, and view their Privacy Statement.
After contacting Microsoft, they have removed the
"Phishing Warning", and we are now
aren't classified
as a threat.
We apologise for any down time, and thank you for
your continuing support.
