Bryan-Michael Cox is a man born of music. It is in his DNA, infused in his born and sinew. He has a level of understanding about music theory and logic that is far beyond the comprehension of the modern day "music scholar" and surpasses the knowledge of any experienced teacher of the musical arts. Bryan-Michael Cox is in his own right, a living legend and one who inspires me the most. Born on December 1, 1977 in Miami, FL, Bryan's first musical influence was his mother, Pamela Cox, an instrumentalist

Up until the past year or so I was sure that I was going to pursue the path of Family Law once I became an attorney. As a result, I spent a great deal of my time reading over the Maine Revised Statutes to get a better understanding as to what a Family Law attorney would deal with day in and day out. While reading, I immediately became very interested in 19-A M.R.S. §1803; I was unaware that such a law existed, and I was quite surprised that it was in existence. After spending a considerable amount
From Grass to Turf There is no other place like the football field, and as a five year marching band veteran, I have seen many. They come in all sorts of sounds, feels, and conditions, but there are two individual fields that I hold near and dear to my heart. I have spent many hours on the practice field, at school, and home field, at UTM. Over the course of my years I have bled, cried tears of joy, and sweat gallons upon gallons. These two places have had the biggest effect on me as a person.

Throughout the play, Macbeth, by William Shakespeare, there is a repetitive theme that innocent individuals must die in order for Macbeth to obtain and maintain tyrannical power over Scotland. Increasingly, the death count resulting from Macbeth’s corrupt actions rose higher and higher, as his victims become more innocent throughout the play. From King Duncan, Banquo, Lady Macduff, Lady Macduff’s children, and to Siward, many individuals were slain due to Macbeth’s unchecked ambition and murderous
Banned for social reasons in many conditions and in many school systems, Anthony Burgess’s A Clockwork Orange first seems to pierce the mind with its bizarre linguistic orgy of debauchery, brutality, and sex, and for some, refuses to affect them above the level of pure voyeurism and bloodlust (either for reveling in it or despising it). Sadism seems to twist the male protagonist; his mind becomes alive with brutal fantasies whilst listening to seemingly innocuous classical music ( “There were vecks
Tomatoes ¨Pawn Sacrifice¨ where Tobey plays the Anti-Semitic chess champion who is also a Jew. He was also in the ¨Spider-Man¨ movies; very obscure films. No one else could´ve executed such a masterful performance like Tobey; unless it´s Edward Norton.
