for release in the fall of 1979, The River was held back by Springsteen who felt it needed something more. The first version of the album, titled The Ties That Bind, was recorded and produced as an album of normal length by Springsteen and the E Street Band. However because Springsteen was writing with fervor during his last tour and while working on this new album, he had over thirty new compositions and he decided that the newly titled The River would be a double album. This vastness and variety
Bruce Springsteen’s seventh studio album “Born in the U.S.A.” ignited an inferno in the red, white, and blue hearts of every American upon its release in 1984. However, it can be argued that "Born in the USA" can be classified as one of the most misinterpreted songs of all time. In essence, it represented two opposing songs: what the fans heard and understood, and what the true meaning of Springsteen's message was. Released right before the opening ceremony of the Los Angeles Summer Olympics,
avid Brooks describes paracosms as detailed imaginary worlds that encompasses landscapes, imaginary beasts, heroes and laws, characters we idolize that help people orient themselves into reality (NY Times).

Instead the youth of America rushed into the streets of New York and welcomed the invaders with loud screams and insane fanaticism. The invaders were The Beatles and the members were Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr.

Stones is a task which requires envisioning a world before every memory one has ever made. “Timeless” would be an appropriate adjective, but “the 1950s” serves just as well.

The Rolling Stones started as a small teen band named, “Little Boy Blue and the Blue Boys”, with Mick Jagger singing and Keith Richards playing guitar. The music they played was all covers; they played songs which came from

Planter Fasciitis Introduction Plantar fasciitis is the most ordinary source of heel pain. The plantar fascia (plantar aponeurosis) runs the length of the sole and is a broad flat band of dense connective tissue (ligament) that connects proximally to the medial surface of the calcaneus (heel bone) (Prentice 586).

Let us enjoy being who we are, doing those activities that excite, enliven, and motivate ourselves. It is often important and necessary to do things that are not fun, but overall, be you, someone who you will enjoy being. The second E is for Effort.

Were you stuck listening to your parents' music, or did you find the music you like on your own? The music we listen to as children has a major impact on our future lives; that impact can just be nostalgia for your childhood, comfort when you need it, or a fundamental influence on a child's mind that they carry with them for the rest of their life.

This 1960 movie was based on the play of the same name by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee. Even though the story is based on fact, the authors claim that Inherit the Wind is not history. Only a few phrases have been taken from the actual transcript of the trial. To quote the authors, "So Inherit the Wind does not pretend to be journalism. It is theatre. It is not 1925. The stage directions set the time as 'Not too long ago'. It might have been yesterday. It could be tomorrow." The historical
