10 year-old New York rapper "ASTRONOMICAL KID" shows talent as a musical artist (video)
posted by !Baha, 16 October 2010
At age 10, "Astronomical Kid" made a hit YOUtube video about a subject close to his heart - he didn't want guys in his neighborhood oogling his 'moms'. And for anyone who thinks an adult wrote his words, click on the link to his video interview below, and you'll be struck by how 'mature' an eleven year old can be! (though, the music and beat behind DO sound pro... and there are some 'production companies' backing him - but make no mistake, you got to SHOW TALENT to get that backing in the first place! )
BrendaL-21 on "Billy Elliot: A Confession of My New Obsession"
By BrendaL-21, 11 January 2010
It's been a long time since I've become so completely enraptured by something that I find myself combing the internet for hours on end - drinking up every last bit of information about my new obsession. But lo and behold, that time has arrived, and I find myself utterly addicted.

"Get UR GOOD on!" says Miley Cyrus and Youth Service America
By Nomadic Chris, 10 November 2009
“Miley + Youth Service America = Get UR Good ON!”
Do you want to share your volunteering ideas or experiences with the world?
Hannah Montana sometimes known as Miley Cyrus wants to change the world! And she wants you, yes, YOU to share your creative ideas and enriching experiences with the global youth community.
We've said it before. Every cause has its own day of celebration, so WHY NOT our furry friends in the animal kingdom?
Why shouldn't animals have a special day where the spotlight falls solely on them?
THEY DO! Every October 4th is World Animal Day!
From big cuddly pandas to your pet hamster, October 4th is the day that animals receive mankind’s special care and attention. Such is modern day life; the welfare of animals and their needs have mostly been overlooked.
Why it's easy to be passionate and emotional when it comes to choosing a dog, cat, fish, or other type of pet! Pets offer us companionship,and amuse us with their individual personalities. It's easy to imagine the comfort and pleasure of playing with these wonderful living creatures. So, it's also easy that we forget how they are entirely dependent on us - as their owners - to take care of all their needs whether daily ones like food and exercise, care and attention or special needs, like when they are ill, or when we need to travel and leave them behind.
We often hear people say, "I'm a dog person" -or- "I'm a cat person", as if there are only two types of animals in the world for us to raise as pets. But it's more than that, a dog person usually dislikes cats, finds them too independent, finicky, unaffectionate; and mostly it's the same the other way around, people who like cats find dogs too dependent, expressive, hyper.
For all of those who have ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of music, from my one-week work experience at a Music Studio in Hong Kong, I'm here, blogging this month, to tell all.
Much maligned, superstar and King of Pop - Michael Jackson - died all too soon, before he had a chance to remind everyone of his tremendous talent, as a musical artist, a choreographer, and the most unique performer of all time ...

BrendaL-20 says "Fish are Fish—Not Freaking 'Sea Kittens'"
by BrendaL-20, 29 January 2009
I’m not the biggest fan of fish. I find them irrationally terrifying.
I'm not the biggest fan of PETA, either. I find them legitimately terrifying.
Terrifyingly insane, that is.
Disregarding their unorthodox activism and their tendency to throw paint and flour on people wearing fur, I am going to have to say that PETA's Sea Kittens campaign just about the takes the cake in inane endeavors.
