Unstoppable hard rock music band Guns N’ Roses will electrify fans into the fall this November. Presented by Live Nation, the exhilarating international sensation is letting its fans get closer to new rounds of arena shows throughout the U.S. including a Las Vegas show. There is very little doubt that Las Vegas is among the favorite destinations of Guns N’ Roses, the widely famous American rock band from Los Angeles. They are massive fans of Las Vegas because they have staged residencies here in the past and they will return to the Nevada spotlight in April ahead of their performance at Coachella. The reunited line-up of the first Guns N’ Roses will in November return to the Strip. Led by guitarist Slash and vocalist Axl Rose, the amazing…

As the note, slid to the floor beside her feet. Tear drops slid down Isabella’s face. She stared into the fire lost, confused and alone as she reminisced on the past few months……… Being, the youngest daughter of one of the country’s, most influential men. Isabella never had a normal childhood. Sheltered by her father and three sisters; she felt trapped and never truly herself. Her father, Warth, was a wealthy merchant and was traditional, in every aspect of his life and proud of the customs of…

Yes, I’ve been fortunate enough to have served in a variety of ministries such as a seniors day program, Church choir, respite camps, Best Buddies and so forth. I find working with the SENACA seniors day program to be my favourite experience. This program entails a wide range of responsibilities and duties. Some days it might be doing tasks like cleaning or taking out the trash, while on other days it’s more focused on planning and doing activities with the senior clients. It’s an absolutely…

Disney Channel was quick to recognize females would put their money where “liberation” appeared signifying that third-wave ideals of girl power are related to consumer power. Rather than use girl power as a true political stance, Disney Channel used it as an industrial strategy to cultivate their audience and justify the commodification of young females and the prioritization of consumption over substance. Having now established the feministic atmosphere that would allow for this decade of…

During the medieval times the women had no say the man would pick her and she would marry him most of the time without really knowing him. Chaucer the author of Canterbury Tales explains this process in the tales of his book. In today’s world choice of marriage is a common…

I would be lying to you all if I said that I have always wanted to travel to China let alone spend a semester there. Entering college at Wheaton (MA) two and a half years ago I dreamed of learning a romance language like Italian in hopes of traveling to Europe my junior year to have a picture-perfect semester. After watching the Lizzie McGuire movie a million times, anything seemed possible. If I learned Italian and went to Italy, maybe I could be riding around Rome on Moped with a cute pop star…

agrees to whatever the point may be. Accordingly, having outside sources emphasizes on words of wisdom being given. Another device is personification, which is when one gives human qualities to an object or animal. In this case, in the song it says “look at the lies we swallowed” Writers use personification to make something inanimate important in the sense that it is worded to catch the reader’s attention as that is the way people will listen if they hear something bizarre. Accordingly, diction…

It is pretty easy to believe that becoming “famous” instantly makes you more acceptable to drugs… and that sort of right. “What actors, singers, athletes, even CEOs have that regular people might not have is more access to drugs, more time to indulge, more money to pay for it, and often a horde of enabling hangers-on who are financially dependent on them and thus more motivated to supply substances for them. It adds up to a situation hard to walk away from” ~ Duff McKagan-former bass player of…
