![]() ![]() I fucking hate myself,” then fails to go deeper. There was a classically Kat fantasy sequence in which visions of bikini-clad models visit her in her bedroom, commanding her to "Love yourself!" Euphoria scratches the surface in her reply: “But that’s what I’m trying to tell you. She questions why she doesn't love the adoring, functional Ethan-but the depth of her internal struggle is barely explored. Her Season 2 screentime was scarce and, at times, confounding. But just as Kat's story was getting good, it was sidelined. So was the scene that immediately followed in Season 1's Kat-centric Episode 3:Įuphoria's showrunner Sam Levinson introduced Kat's backstory-a tween who binges virgin piña coladas on vacation and is dumped by her first love over her weight gain-early on, priming her for a meaty, central role. (See also: commanding them to fulfill her Amazon wishlist.) In the cinematic canon of slow-mo high school makeover sequences, Rachel Leigh Cook in She's All That can step aside Kat sauntering down the hall in a leather harness over a baby tee, her red lips in a sly smile-all to the growls of DMX's "X 'Gon Give It To Ya"-was a pure triumph. But Kat stood alone as a fat (the word Ferreira uses to describe herself) prolific fanfic author-turned-virtual dominatrix who taps into her power-sexual and otherwise-through shaming men's micropenises via webcam. I'd seen some version of the beautiful-yet-tormented cheerleader (Cassie) or the emotional terrorist quarterback (Jacob Elordi as Nate) before on television. ![]() ![]() Even in a fictional friend group that includes Rue ( Zendaya) and Jules ( Hunter Schafer), Ferreira/Kat arguably stole Season 1. I have questions chief among them: why?Īs someone who binged both seasons of Euphoria in recent weeks alone, I found Kat singularly captivating. It's a sad, sidekick moment for Kat, and the magnetic Ferreira, who oozes main-character energy and indeed was a main character on this very show-until this season. The last we glimpse of Kat (in a magnificent corset top), she is chasing Maddy ( Alexa Demie), feebly crying "Maddy, no!" as her on-and-off best friend scales the East Highland auditorium steps, preparing to bitch-slap Sydney Sweeney's Cassie as the well-funded production of Our Life devolves into chaos. When Euphoria's second season ended on Sunday night, so did my hope that Kat, the complicated cam girl played by Barbie Ferreira, would finally get a scene worthy of her greatness. ![]() ![]() ![]() “Please Don’t Go,” the first #1 hit of the ’80s, happens to be the first ballad that the Sunshine Band ever recorded. It took a ballad to temporarily bring them back. In 1978, the year disco hit its commercial peak, the Sunshine Band only managed a couple of singles that scraped the lower rungs of the top 40. (“Keep It Comin’ Love” is a 5.) For nearly three years after that, the Sunshine Band got nowhere near the top 10. The Sunshine Band followed up the 1977 #1 “ I’m Your Boogie Man” with the relatively limp “ Keep It Comin’ Love,” which peaked at #2 later that same year. You don’t carve out a lasting pop career by knocking out subtlety-free bulldozers for years in a row. Their songs were fun, but they were also subtlety-free bulldozers. The Sunshine Band’s sound was maddeningly simple and repetitive. For a hot minute - until the Bee Gees came along and kicked them into the sun - KC & The Sunshine Band were the biggest band in disco. After that, the Sunshine Band themselves did everything they could to capitalize on the sound of the gay-club underground, scoring four quick-succession #1 hits from 1975 to 1977. Bandleaders Henry Wayne Casey and Richard Finch wrote and produced George McCrae’s 1974 smash “ Rock Your Baby,” which I consider to be the first fully intentional disco #1. There’s no one party that can claim responsibility for the disco boom, but KC & The Sunshine Band were, at the very least, early adapters. That’s especially true of the decade’s first #1 single: One of the defining chart-pop groups of the ’70s pulling off a short-lived last-ditch post-disco reinvention. In most respects, especially on the pop charts, the first few years of the ’80s are pretty much ’70s hangover. The popular-imagination version of the ’80s - the day-glo, the architecturally molded hairdos, the cocaine yacht parties - was already starting to take shape in the waning days of the ’70s, but that whole ’80s aesthetic didn’t take over for years. The ’80s didn’t really begin on January 1, 1980. Our hearts go out to the alleged victims and their families.In The Number Ones, I’m reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart’s beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present. "Those legal issues associated with this case will be dealt with via the judicial system of the state of Ohio. Finch have nothing to do with me nor with KC & The Sunshine Band," Casey said in a statement. However, singles from the band's first album, "Do It Good," were released in 1973 and feature Finch. He left the band in 1980.Ĭasey disputed that Finch co-founded the band, saying that he started it in 1973 and Finch joined a year later.

We will let due process happen through the legal system and through that, we are sure Mr. "We appreciate your contact, but at this time, we have no comment.

Crime from Madison is spilling over and other areas in the vicinity also need support. The police chief, who previously served in Milwaukee, Alfonso Morales, has determined that a larger facility is needed to ensure public safety. The department itself is currently housed in the basement of the Fitchburg City Hall. The building area has been vandalized numerous times, and protests about the construction have resulted in a police car being set on fire, fireworks being set off, windows in businesses in Atlanta smashed, and other such mayhem.Ĭloser to home, we have our own “Cop City.” The town of Fitchburg proposed that a $47 million facility be constructed to support the police department.

![]() If you clap your hands together, this creates a vibration, which we hear as soundwaves and frequencies. All sounds are made up of waves produced by the vibrations of material objects. Vibration really is a key word when it comes to sound healing, because all sound is made up of vibration. Greek physicians were also known to use musical instruments to heal patients, using the power of vibration to promote healthy digestion, sleep and emotional disturbances. Healing with sound has existed for thousands of years the Ancient Egyptians used musical incantations to help heal the sick, whilst the ancient yogic text the Samaveda contains chants and hymns and was recited in a specific harmony. ![]() In a world with so much noise, it’s more important than ever to be intentional and conscious about how we use sound and how we interact with it, which is where sound healing comes in. When our phones or computers make a sound to notify us of a message, our brains might release dopamine – the ‘motivation’ and ‘desire’ hormone – but they can also release cortisol, which, in excess, is detrimental to health. The ‘bing’ and ‘beep’ of notifications can also increase stress levels. It doesn’t have to be loud and disturbing noises that affect us however. In a 2021 study, it was estimated that people living close to busy roads were more likely to experience high cortisol (the ‘stress hormone’) levels, hypertension or heart disease, and up to 40 million people in the US suffer from a hearing impairment due to excessive noise exposure. We’ve never been surrounded by sound as much as we are in today’s world, but beyond the positive and uplifting sounds of singing and music, there’s also ‘noise pollution’, which researchers say is one of the leading causes of health issues worldwide. ![]() What can you hear? Perhaps the hum of the refrigerator, a song on the radio, aeroplanes, wind rustling through leaves? From the most audible sounds closest to you right now, to the muffled sounds you can barely hear, all of those frequencies are having an impact on the mind and body. Read on for the science and benefits behind sound healing and sound baths, and why they’re so popular today. When you head out to a sound therapy experience, allow yourself to let go and be open to the practice, and you could experience one of the many benefits for your physical and mental health including:īut do you know the reason why sound healing is so effective? Instruments used vary from gongs to alchemical crystal bowls, Tibetan bowls, bells, rain sticks, drums, flutes, Koshi chimes, Kenari shakers, and tuning forks tuned to specific frequencies. Sound healing is very much the same, although sound healing sessions can be done as a 1-2-1 therapy with a practitioner and may also include guided relaxation and visualisation. Today, sound healing and sound baths are a popular way to experience the many benefits of specific tones and instruments.Ī sound bath is simply a deeply relaxing experience where the listener lies down on a mat or blanket, with as many cushions or props as they need to feel comfortable, and is then ‘bathed’ in the sound vibrations. ![]() Which is why the healing power of sound is something yogis have been aware of for thousands of years. ![]() Sound is all around us, and whether we know it or not, it’s always affecting how we feel. If you have a favourite song that makes you feel happy, that’s the power of sound if you’ve ever danced until your feet were sore, that’s the power of sound if there’s a piece of music that conjures up memories, that’s the power of sound. Even if you don’t realise, you’ve probably already felt how powerfully healing sound can be. ![]() ![]() ![]() One of the lead headlines on the Drudge Report late Tuesday night said, “Candy gives Obama 9 percent more time…” She fact-checked the Republican without fact-checking the Democrat. ![]() Many conservative commentators quickly trained their sights on a common enemy during the debate: Candy Crowley, the moderator. The National Rifle Association wrote in 1999 that the effect of the law had been “to ‘freeze’ the number of privately owned fully-automatic firearms at roughly 150,000, an exact figure being unavailable due to privacy protection requirements that apply to tax-based laws such as the National Firearms Act.” (See Part 479 of this chapter) or (b) Any lawful transfer or lawful possession of a machine gun that was lawfully possessed before (See Part 479 of this chapter).” It says: “No person shall transfer or possess a machine gun except: (a) A transfer to or by, or possession by or under the authority of, the United States, or any department or agency thereof, or a State, or a department, agency, or political subdivision thereof. The law, posted on the Web site of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms contains a section called “transfer or possession of machine guns.” While the sale of new fully automatic machine guns to civilians has been outlawed since 1986, older machine guns were grandfathered into the law and can be sold to civilians in certain states. “Governor Romney was fact-checked by the moderator when he denied that the president stood in the Rose Garden the day after’’ and referred to the attack as terrorism, Mr. ![]() Obama “did call it an act of terror” was a highlight of the debate. David Axelrod, the president’s top stragetist, said Ms. Sununu, the former governor of New Hampshire, flatly asserted, “The president got caught lying tonight, and he’s going to pay a penalty for that.”ĭemocrats strongly disagreed. Obama said, “No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation.”īut others in his administration said for days that the evidence pointed to a spontaneous attack during a demonstration in reaction to the American-made video. Ridge said, “the president, his ambassador to the United Nations, his secretary of state and even he himself on multiple occasions talked about that incident as being the consequence of some kind of spontaneous demonstration to that ugly movie.” Bush, predicted that the most discussed moment of the debate would be “Candy Crowley’s trying to say on behalf of the president, ‘Well, you did mention terror.’” Tom Ridge, a former Homeland Security secretary under George W. Chaffetz came armed with a transcript of the president’s spokesman, Jay Carney, stating days later that there was no evidence to back up the claim the attack was preplanned, that it was most likely sparked by an anti-Islamic video. “The idea the president called out a terrorist attack in the Rose Garden - Governor Romney’s correct, the president is wrong,’’ said Representative Jason Chaffetz, a Utah Republican who helped lead a House hearing into the attacks last week. Obama when he said he did just that in the Rose Garden. Obama identified the attack in Benghazi, Libya, early on as terrorism, and to scold Candy Crowley, the debate moderator, for backing up Mr. Romney’s senior advisers and surrogates flooding the spin room seemed to have one thing above all else on their minds: to deny that Mr. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The similarities to MS Paint might also catch your attention, but the number of features and tools at your disposal is vastly superior to its Microsoft counterpart.
