Next is money. Who doesn’t LOVE money?? I need money, as a teenager, and I don’t have very easy access to it. I have tried to get job after job, but nothing works. I rarely make money by babysitting, yet it’s still really important to me. I could buy everything my little heart desires like clothes, bags, games, posters, and a lot more. I would like to use this site to have more access to money

Power isn’t my thing. I don’t think I would be able to handle too much power. I like to leave it to the people who are already in power, like the President. It simply doesn’t appeal to me whatsoever. It would only be important to me if I had the power to tell off certain people without getting my face dented.

The unforgettable, iconic superstar Freddy Mercury, singer, songwriter, and amazing musician, was born Farookh Bulsara September 5, 1946, in Zanzibar, becoming famous as front-man of the iconic rock band Queen, strutting his mesmeric stuff with a unique and unforgettable style.

Who could ever forget the swagger, the incredible Adonis-like male beauty or the mastery of showmanship that was the signature of this most talented and innovative of singers. Having studied piano at a Bombay boarding school in India, this charismatic young man soon joined the Hectics, his first band.

Freddy studied at Ealing College of Art. his family reaching London in the 1960s, where he met and became firm friends future Queen members Roger Taylor and Brian May. In 1969, Mercury was lead singer with a group called Ibex, but in1971,with Taylor and May, met bassist John Deacon, the quartet dubbed Queen by Freddy started playing together.

Queen’s music took a couple of years to really catch on, third album, Sheer Heart Attack , released1974,being their first big seller. The first hit Killer Queen was about a high-class call girl, perfectly mirroring the lifestyle of the openly gay Mercury, whom the song seemed to describe to perfection.

UK No. 2 and US No. 12 in the charts, a sound described as hard/glam rock, Queen had the perfect front man in the outrageous Freddy, in1975 coming up with album A Night at the Opera, featuring Bohemian Rhapsody, a seven-minute rock operetta written by Freddy.

It was the the skilful overdubbing of his voice that truly showed off his immaculate four-octave vocal range, and- this innovative track  hit no1 in the UK charts, becoming a big hit worldwide, and epitomizing everything that was iconic and magical about the inimitable Freddy Mercury.

He was always very open about his bisexuality, but kept his relationships to himself, being very private out of the limelight, though this rock icon did live a lavish lifestyle, loving champagne and an avid art collector, to the extent of once spending in excess of $400,000 for hand-painted china.

 Freddy was a party animal,throwing elaborate celebrations, flying friends to Ibiza on a particular birthday, to include fireworks and flamenco dancing in his planned festivities. His Lifestyle was what killed him, though, as he contracted the horrendous AIDS virus, no longer touring with the band after 1989, on November 23, 1991, releasing a statement confirming to the world what they already knew, made extra poignant by the fact that on the following day, AIDS-related bronchial pneumonia claimed his life at only 45 years of age at his London home.

Freddy had never wished to be an object of pity and curiosity, keeping his afflictions to himself, and rock lovers round the world mourned the loss of one of the most iconic performers of all time. Freddy would have been the most outrageous O.A.P. of them all, had he lived, and I for one would have loved to bear witness to that. What a loss his death truly was.

Shara Lin is a Taiwanese performer.In her video, she was playing violin, zither and piano ALL BY HERSELF!

Her musical multi-tasking has gain her a  global display in a training video of her performing Taiwanese artist Jolin Tsai’s song “Dancing Diva” that has racked up more than 4 million views on YouTube within three weeks.

Shara, a beautiful 25-year-old actress who has a music degree ( which explain why she knows how to play the instruments she played in her video), put the performance together within five days for a blend of classical and Taiwanese pop music by tucking the violin under her chin and stretching out as needed to both piano and zither.

Young Shara said “I think the toughest part is to play the piano and the zither simultaneously. We tried many times to figure out this position for my left hand to play the piano, and right hand to play the zither,”

“When I have to look at both the piano and the zither, I really wished my eyes could grow wider apart. If I have to play (them) together, I must play by feel.”

Shara learned to play the piano when she was only three years old. Her interest in music soon expanded into other instruments including the violin, zither, guitar, jazz drums and harmonica.

Lin said she is willing to try other creative performances in the wake of her YouTube success.

“After people saw this video, they suggested that I can play the drum with my foot and also add the harmonica,” she said.

“I said okay, I will consider that.” — Reuters

LoL…but admit it people, she is so….COOL!

Acting like this doesn’t lead anywhere. Offending people is not the way to build a team, create a family or maintaining friendship. 

Respecting and encouraging people even when their fail is more profitable. There is an approach in the field of rehabilitation called strengths model. It is about emphasizing the positive aspects, giving good feedback such way encouraging people who fight hardly to reach their goals.

The classic example is the Japanese music teacher who is giving his very first piano lesson to a new student.  The kid’s play is terrible. But the teacher’s feedback is still positive: you kept your back very straight during the lesson, great position for a future piano player!

His writings undoubtedly are paintings of his emotions with no element of hypocrisy in them. 

“Piano” is a fine example of true expression of deep emotions felt by D.H. Lawrence.

Music has that beguiling attribute which affects our hearts in incredible ways. D.H. Lawrence reveals such quality of music through his heart-warming lyric, “Piano”

A woman is singing to D.H. Lawrence in the dusk to the accompaniment of a piano. The softness of the dusk, the intimacy of a female voice singing and above all the piano, take him back to view scenes of his childhood. He sees himself as a child, sitting under the piano, when it booms with the tingling of its strings. His mother is playing the piano and singing and he is pressing her small feet, poised on the piano pedal. He is taken into the vista, hears the music, feels the touch of his mother and is touched by the picture of her smile.

The mastery of the song has the promise soothing his nerves, yet betrays him, on the sly takes him back in time, in spite of his efforts to control himself.  The haunting picture of those Sundays in winter, when he sang hymns, with the tinkling piano as his guide, in his cosy parlour, inside the comfort of his home. This vista brings a heaviness of heart and it weeps to get back to the past into the innocent childhood once again.

He gets back into the present as the great, black piano goes into a loud burst of music, playing the most passionate appassionato. But the attraction of his childhood remains in his heart, and throwing away all his defences against openly expressing  his sentiments, he weeps like a child pining for what it cannot get.

‘We look back and pine for what is not’

His manhood tries in vain to control the rise of soft emotions within him. Yet he longs to be the child he was.

The poem moves from present to past and to present just as the music begins on a soft melodious note, rising in pitch with his rising emotions and culminates with a passionate note.

 The music reminds him of the hymns he used to sing, so we can perceive the divinity he bestows on the music that leads him into the past. The same music brings himback to reality when it grows louder and loses its softness.

Softs sounds of music have indeed great power over the human heart. 

The claims were brought to court earlier this week by the daughters, Desirae (born 1979), Deondra (1980) and Melody (1984), and allegedly occurred from 1990 to 1998. Victims of sexual abuse cases are usually left anonymous, but the three women wanted to make it public. They put forth the claims after their parents were involved in a car crash Monday.

According to E! News, District Attorney David Sturgill says (of Brown) “He’s probably looking at 12 to 13 years. It could potentially result in a life sentence. There’s no ceiling in how much time he could do.” Brown is expected to be taken into custody, and a sentencing date of March 31 has been set.

The mormon family, originally from Texas, now resides in Utah. The children were homeschooled through high school and then attended Juliard Conservatory.

The piano remains in the flow of most dry.

A spokesman for the Florida Commission for the protection of fisheries and wildlife said Jorge Pino, piano on that site will probably continue. “We are not responsible for the removal of such things. Even a car can become a place to live wild animals. If the object represented navigational hazards involved in the case could Coast Guard, “said Pino.

People go to a mysterious musical instrument and look at boats.

But then I went to a winter concert at my son’s school.  As I walked into the gymnasium, it took me back to my youth.  There were metal folding chairs put out for all the parents and family to sit on, plus they had some bleachers against the wall.  My son told me where he was sitting in the band, so I tried to sit on that side of the room to see him.  The crowd for the most part was attentive, there were a few cell phones ringing and once in a while you can see the glow of someone texting on their cell phone.  (The man sitting next to me!).  The event turned out to be very nice, the band played, the choir sang and did a play and a young boy played solo on the piano.  It was beautiful. 

It made me think that we can not cut the arts out of our schools.  Our children need to know about music, drawing, theatre and, if I may be so bold, cooking and sewing.   In my opinion music teaches musicality and rhythm, drawing teaches about the movement of your hands (fluidity) and theatre teaches the ability to speak in public.  I believe that the later two fall under the heading of good nutrition and taking care of oneself.   All of these are needed. 

HOUSE CLEANING AND GIVING YOUR HOUSE  A NEW LOOK

Who says house cleaning can’t be fun.  Cleaning house can be a family activity, and this is a great opportunity to bond with each other during these cold times.  Re-arranging some house furniture, changing curtains, adding new accent  to your living room will give it a new look which gives a more pleasant feeling to everyone.  A general cleaning you may say, decluttering  the house will give much space to the house by  throwing or giving to others what is not already of use at present.  After cleaning, a delightful snack for everyone is best.

LEARN AND PRACTICE A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT

There can be many indoor hobbies that you  can pursue while inside the house during winter.  Playing a musical instrument is one.  You might be neglecting your favorite instrument during summer and fall. Find inspiration from the gloomy sky and create songs that really speaks from the heart.  You maybe surprised that you have come along way learning to play the piano, guitar, violin, or drums inside the house.  Online video tutorials helps a lot in your practice. 

IMPROVE YOUR COOKING SKILLS 

Eating during winter can be an alternative boredom busters.  Experimenting with different recipes can improve your cooking skills.  Browse some of your old cookbooks and start choosing your next recipe.  Let the children get involved with the cooking and enjoy the excitement with you.

OTHER HOBBIES THAT YOU CAN DO INSIDE THE HOUSE

Aside from those mentioned above.  There a lot of other hobbies that you can pursue inside the house like  painting, scrap-booking, on line games, having fun with the snow at the backyard, boardgames, watching movies with the family and reading favorite novel or informative books.

EARN ONLINE WHILE AT HOME

Working with the computer is another good alternative activity at home.  Unlike the traditional work where you have to get-up and go outside going to the office or other place of work.  Writing on line can be as a hobby or an opportunity to earn on line. Websites like Triond, Bukisa, Factoidz, Snipsly, Squiddo, and other content websites  offers endless earning opportunities for writers.  Other ways to earn money on line are blogging, joining a ptc site, joining a forum and alike.  One should only be patient and research more about freelancing.

Seasons change but you can be productive in every season that may come.  Just be flexible and make the most of you life and time.
