Collectively, we saw her at the 87th Academy Awards after she belted out and performed her Academy-Award nominated song Grateful, which was about four months ago. She still possesses that quirky soprano range, the edge on her physical appearance and the brimming musical sense as she set foot on stage.

Born in Kosovo and had first established her popularity as a relevant musical prodigy in the United Kingdom with hit songs How We Do (Party) and R.I.P., Rita Ora has proven to be an extremely sought-after singer, songwriter, actress and TV personality in this generation.

Just recently, Rita made a huge comeback with her brainchild song 'Poison,' which is said to be the first cut on her upcoming second album. It’s been a while since this singer made marks on her musical career, and patrons from all over the world are nothing but excitedly awaiting the musical genius that will surely be displayed by Rita Ora.

Flannery O’Connor was born on March 25, 1925 in Georgia. She was the only child to her parents, Edward and Regina O’Connor. Two years away from Flannery’s adulthood , her father passed away due to a rare disease, lupus. At the time of her father’s death O’Connor was in Milledgeville, Ga. It can be inferred that she was able to cope up with her father’s death very soon as she didn’t speak of his death much and also resumed to be an active part of her high school’s extra-curricular activities such as painting, English club and also band. A year after her father’s demise she graduated from high school and enrolled herself in Georgia State College to do major in English and sociology. It was during this period that she adapted the name ‘Flannery’. After getting bachelor degree from college she relocated to Iowa City where she attended University of Iowa and also applied for a job as teacher within the campus of her university. In the year of 1947, she eventually obtained her Masters degree in the field of Fine Arts. In spite of the fact that she obtained her Masters degree in 1947, her first work, “The Geranium” was published a year before that and it was just the dawn of her fame. It was merely an origination of the classics that followed later on. Lupus was genetically acquired by O’Connor from her father.

O’Connor was determined about her writing and thus , even such a huge attack didn’t divert her attention off her passion of writing. There was no looking back for her as she kept on publishing her works. In point of fact , it was only after her attack, she produc...
I have always said the only thing I miss of a past girlfriend is her collection of Barenaked Ladies albums. After recreating her collection for myself, I learned that a new album was on the way. Maroon -- the band's sixth album is filled with 12 brand new songs with enough quirkiness and pop that will forever be the marks of the Barenaked Ladies (BNL). To my surprise Don Was, a Grammy Award winning producer whose name was also on my B-52's and Rolling Stones albums, produced this album. This pop-infused CD displays the BNL's signature of happy, jangly, tunes filled with sarcasm, irony, truth and passion embedded into every song that brings out old memories to everyone.

I dream about time travelling back into the Progressive Era, where I would witness first hand the hard work, patience, and dedication civil right advocates had as they fought against the injustice committed against them and participated in peaceful protests for what is right.

Although there is much evidence out there that Mata Hari was not a spy, there are people that still believe she committed espionage against the French during World War I. The French police claimed that she had cost the allied fifty thousand troops lives (Edwards 1). Although any information that was passed on between her and her companions could be found in a newspaper in Spain, according to Julie Wheelwright of the University of London (2). Another claim that many people have made is that Mata Hari could never keep her story straight.

People are influenced by everything from jobs, music, fashion, certain people, even to different cultures. Chefs never seemed like the group of people one would expect to have an impact on the world, but they do.
