Pillow Pal

Pillow Pals were a line of plush toys made by Ty, Inc. during the 1990s. The toys were given their name because they were soft like a pillow, and were made with children in mind. Though many of them resembled certain Beanie Babies, those that did not share names with their Beanie Baby counterparts. Such Pillow Pals saw a decline in popularity in the late 1990s with the introduction of Beanie Buddies, which were also larger versions of various Beanie Babies. In January 1999, all Pillow Pals were redesigned, and their colors were changed. This line did not sell well, and was discontinued by Ty around the end of the year. Today, PillowPals LLC takes children's drawings and replicates them into 3D pillows.

At the time of the final retirement, Ty donated its remaining stock of pillow pals to the Ronald McDonald House to be distributed to sick children.

Drama (Greek: Δράμα [ˈðrama]) is a city and municipality in northeastern Greece. Drama is the capital of the regional unit of Drama which is part of the East Macedonia and Thrace region. The town (pop. 44,823 in 2011) is the economic center of the municipality (pop. 58,944), which in turn comprises 60 percent of the regional unit's population. The next largest communities in the municipality are Choristi (pop. 2,725), Χiropótamos (2,554), Kallífytos (1,282), Kalós Agrós (1,178), and Koudoúnia (996).

Built at the foot of mount Falakro, in a verdant area with abundant water sources, Drama has been an integral part of the Hellenic world since the classical era; under the Byzantine Empire, Drama was a fortified city with a castle and rose to great prosperity under the Komnenoi as a commercial and military junction.

In the modern era, tobacco production and trade, the operation of the railway (1895) and improvement of the road network towards the port of Kavala, led to an increase in the population of the city and to the enhancement of commercial activity.

Drama (Yes album)

Drama is the tenth studio album from the English rock band Yes, released in August 1980 on Atlantic Records. It is the only album to feature The Buggles (singer Trevor Horn and keyboardist Geoff Downes) in the band's line-up, following the exit of Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman in March 1980 after differences during the band's failed album recording sessions in Paris in late 1979. Horn would later produce some of Yes' work, while Downes ultimately rejoined the band in 2011.

Drama reached No. 2 in the United Kingdom and No. 18 in the United States, their lowest charting album there since The Yes Album (1971). The album was supported with a 1980 tour across North America and the UK; the group disbanded at its conclusion.

Background

Following the conclusion of their 1979 North American tour, Yes took a break and proceeded to work on their tenth studio album with producer Roy Thomas Baker in Paris, France in November that year. Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman were the most enthusiastic about producing a new album, writing more songs together than they had before. The remaining members – Chris Squire, Steve Howe and Alan White – were lukewarm to the project after the production issues and critical reception of their previous record, Tormato (1978). This discouraged both Anderson and Wakeman with the latter at times refusing to leave his room, and both men dejectedly spending time in a local pub. The two decided to leave in March 1980.
