I Love the New Season of Dancing with the Stars!

Tue, 21 Feb 2012 05:59:08 -0600

Whatever this season may bring, I was tired of the dancing, judges, and contestants. I just couldn't stand to watch Chloris Leachman. But then along came Gilles Marini, Lil Kim, Ty Murray, Melissa Rycroft, The Woz, Julianne's boyfriend, Chuck Wicks, Denise Richards, Shawn Johnson, and a few others that really didn't interest me.Despite that dreadful lineup, there was an individual that did make it all worthwhile. I could not wait to watch Gilles Marini expertly dance during each episode. After watching the Sex and the City movie, he really spiked my interest. And as a celebrity dancer on Dancing with the Stars Gilles does not let fans of his screen work down. He heats up the ballroom with his dance moves. One of Dancing's judges, Carrie Ann Inaba, let slip what a lot of us were thinking - Carole, Gilles Marini's wife, one was lucky lady. Denise Richards was a big disappointment, lacking talent as well as personality. Unfortunately The Woz had a great personality but just couldn't find ...

Music and the Young Child

Mon, 20 Feb 2012 06:09:48 -0600

Having operated a successful Family Child Care in my home forover years, I have had many opportunities to introducevarious aspects of the Arts to young children. Being naturallymusical myself, providing a musical curriculum to my kids was asimple and obvious way to enhance the daily activities of mychild care and my own children as well. Children respond to music at a very young age. Nearly everyonecan remember their mother or grandmother singing nursery rhymesto them as little children. I have vivid memories of swingingoutside and singing 'Hey Diddle Diddle' as loudly as I couldjust to hear the sound. With my own children I have always usedmusic to calm and entertain them; singing softly to them in therocker or energetically leading them in finger-plays andsing-a-longs. However you may choose to do it, singing orplaying music with children gives them a beginnings of musicappreciation, not to mention the special memories that arecreated.My son is a wild and wholly t...

Corporate entertainment: closer to the people, closer to your goals

Sun, 19 Feb 2012 05:26:10 -0600

The word "corporate" comes from the Latin "Corpus", meaning "body". This leads to the idea that a corporation is something close to a group of people meant to act as one through their decisions. The main goal of corporate entertainment is to provide a sort of bondage between colleagues, or team members, even between the lower-ranking employees and their superiors, thus making the "organism" of the company work better. As you are about to see, human interconnections could prove themselves very important, so it wouldn't hurt checking out what corporate entertainment is all about and how to get in touch with a corporate event organiser.In most cases, human interconnections prove to be vital. Perhaps many people are familiar with that strangling feeling of being stuck in your office for days and weeks in a row, having to provide creative and effective solutions on command while being supervised by you team leader or department chief as the phone keeps ringing. This is the most certain pat...

The New Season of Dancing with the Stars - My Guilty Pleasure

Sat, 18 Feb 2012 02:44:48 -0600

Whatever this season is, I was tired of the dancing, judges, and contestants. Chloris Leachman frustrated me to such a degree I even stopped watching. Melissa Rycroft, The Woz, Julianne's boyfriend, Chuck Wicks, Denise Richards, Shawn Johnson, and a few others came along too that really didn't interest me either.But not all was lost - someone did hold my attention. Gilles Marini was the one I couldn't wait to see. Marini was on my radar after watching the Sex and the City movie where he played Dante. And as a celebrity dancer on Dancing with the Stars Gilles does not let fans of his screen work down. He heats up the ballroom with his dance moves. One of Dancing's judges, Carrie Ann Inaba, let slip what a lot of us were thinking - Carole, Gilles Marini's wife, one was lucky lady. Just like her short lived show on E! Network, Denise Richards proved to be equally dull and talentless on Dancing with the Stars The Woz may be a computer genius and he definitely seemed like a great guy, but h...

Musical Entertainment - 10 Things

Thu, 16 Feb 2012 02:44:33 -0600

How's your wedding file looking? Teeming with glossy literature from numerous photographers, florists and venues?The question I should really ask you is this - "How much information do you have?" The birth of the 'Wedding file' has probably been largely due to things, , The rise of the internet and the mass of choices and options we can now easily access, and , That little business person inside all of us that says "I'm not going to trust my st choice, let's do some research!"In the area of entertainment the choices are vast. Firstly you must choose what sort of musical entertainment you would like Singer, band, guitarist etc and then you must make a choice within that choice. To cut to the point, the questions you ask are far more important than what you are told in the brochures and glossy promotional material.Here are things that you should consider before making a booking and handing over that deposit:.

Sensual and spiritual erotic art

Mon, 13 Feb 2012 05:12:57 -0600

The first work I encountered of Jaeda DeWalt was one of herself-portraits with mannequin figures. The plastic look of thefigures is softened by the usage of light and shades of grey. Inthis black & white photo the human body is almost equal to themannequins surrounding it. It's the same with the pose of Jaeda,it makes the human and plastic body's blend together as a groupof equals.The main difference is the anonymity of the mannequins and theindividuality of the central character. You could say that shereveals her individuality this way. Does she express hersexuality as a female here as well? In a way there is a sexualaspect in this picture. The nakedness, the sensual lines of thebody's against each other, even if most of them are not forreal. But on the opposite there is the non-interaction and thestatic poses. This duality makes this image intriguing to me.What I also experience in her work is what's best to describe asvisual silence. It is one of the things that give...

Intimate glimpses the art of Steven Ricks

Sun, 12 Feb 2012 03:00:16 -0600

The works of Steven Ricks make us part of an intimate moment oftwo people loving each other. We don't get to see the wholescene, we have to continue the visual story ourselves. Make itcomplete with our own fantasy's and experiences.You see body parts teasing each other but the the act of sex isnever shown. Intimate glimpses of the body that during the actof sex we, the participants, don't get to see. The sights thatonly one partner might have the pleasure to see. The usage ofwarm colors and shadows gives us the suspense of heat andpassion, never explicit but almost touchable.The last works shown in the gallery are a small example of hislater work. For me it's a combination of the surrealisticlandscapes and attributes from old grandmaster Salvador Dali andcomputer manipulated images. It has the same illusionisticapproach and playfulness. In my opinion it's more about thisillusion and creating unreal worlds then the erotic tension hehas displayed in the earlier works.Art...
