Ode To The Flag
Copyright 7-4-1970
Renewed 2008,
Linda Sheehan Cunningham

        Our nation's flag is a stirring sight
        As it flutters proudly in the breeze.
        Its colors of blue, red and white
        Means so much to you and me;
        Red stands for courage and hardiness,
        The white means innocence and purity,
        Blue for justice, perseverance and vigilance
        In its promise to keep us free.

        This banner stands for a bountiful land;
        Its government, people and ideals,
        The stripes for the thirteen colonies stand,
        Its symbolism is very real.
        Each state now is represented
        By a star of white on blue.
        President Washington first presented
        The AMERICAN FLAG to you.

        Many brave men have fought and died
        To protect it from dishonor and disgrace.
        Wives have mourned and mothers have cried
        So we could remain . . . The UNITED States.
        The sight of this banner brings feelings of joy,
        Of courage, pride and freedom to all.
        A symbol of our nation in all its glory...
        On the moon OLD GLORY stands tall.

Body:	Cindy Sheehan Is On The Ballot!! Now Let's Go For The General Election Gold Today we got confirmation that Cindy Sheehan has QUALIFIED for the ballot as an independent candidate to challenge Nancy Pelosi for the seat from the 8th Congressional district of CA. This required the verification of the signatures of more than 10,000 of her constituents, only the 6th time in history this has ever been accomplished in the state of CA. And it could not have been done without the heroic support of people, not just in that one district, but from all over the country who recognize that a successful challenge to Pelosi will do more to compel real policy change than almost anything else we can do. Pelosi, who has turned a deaf ear to the entire American people on ending the war funding, impeachment and everything else, MUST be defeated to start to finally hold the White House, and the rest of Congress, accountable. This is now a very winnable race, but only if we rally behind Cindy Sheehan, who had the courage to call the recent non-impeachment hearing the toothless sham that it was, and was thrown out of that hearing for saying so. Let's make her a member of Congress so they can never throw her out again. Please make a donation now to help Cindy Sheehan win the big one.

E=MC² DEBUTED AT NUMBER ONE ON THE BILLBOARD 200 WITH 463,000 COPIES SOLD, MAKING IT THE BIGGEST OPENING WEEK SALES OF HER CAREER. WITH SIX NUMBER ONE ALBUMS, CAREY IS NOW TIED WITH JANET JACKSON IN THE U.S. FOR THE THIRD MOST NUMBER ONE ALBUMS FOR A FEMALE ARTIST, BEHIND MADONNA WITH SEVEN AND BARBRA STREISAND'S EIGHT CHART TOPPERS. IN ITS SECOND WEEK, THE ALBUM TOPPED THE CHART AGAIN WITH 182,000 COPIES SOLD. E=MC² IS CAREY'S FIRST ALBUM TO SPEND TWO STRAIGHT WEEKS AT #1 SINCE 1995'S DAYDREAM. THE ALBUM HAS SOLD 827,000 COPIES TO DATE.

ON THE UK ALBUM CHART, IT DEBUTED AT NUMBER THREE, SELLING 34,800 COPIES. THIS WAS HER HIGHEST PEAK POSITION IN THE UK SINCE BUTTERFLY, WHICH PEAKED AT NUMBER TWO. IT DEBUTED AT THE TOP ON THE UNITED WORLD CHART WITH 617,000 COPIES SOLD AND HELD THE TOP POSITION FOR ANOTHER WEEK, SELLING 1,075,000 UNITS TO DATE.^[ IN THE PHILIPPINES, THE ALBUM REACHED GOLD STATUS SELLING OVER 15,000 COPIES IN JUST EIGHT DAYS.

ON APRIL 15, 2008, THE SAME DAY THE ALBUM WAS RELEASED, MAYOR ANTONIO VILLARAIGOSA PROCLAIMED APRIL 15 OFFICIALLY AS "MARIAH CAREY DAY" IN LOS ANGELES. IT WAS IN PART OF CELEBRATING CAREY'S EIGHTEENTH NUMBER ONE SINGLE, "TOUCH MY BODY". ALSO, ON APRIL 25, 2008 THROUGH APRIL 27, 2008; THE EMPIRE STATE BUILDING WAS LIT UP IN CAREY'S MOTIF COLORS — LAVENDER, PINK, AND WHITE — IN CELEBRATION OF HER ACHIEVEMENTS IN THE WORLD OF MUSIC. CAREY IS THE FIRST PERSON IN HISTORY TO BE HONORED IN THIS EVENT.

The issue with Mariah Carey has been and always will be the same; is she a great pop artist and singer, or is she a diva with too much pretense and French pastry in her music to be taken seriously? All too frequently in the past, the gifted singer with the 8 octave range has taken us on a joyride, a “need to decorate every damn song with more octaves than Maria Callas,” and very little emotion or substance. Her last album, The Emancipation of Mimi was a near perfect album that featured more of her emotional rather than her vocal range. E=MC²is a better album, if that is possible, where we see a free and easy Mariah, that has produced a pop album, that is, "equal parts levity and gravity.” If Mimi was her coming out party, than E=MC²is her coming home party; an artist that is in control and is totally comfortable in her skin. To be blunt, this is one of the year’s best.

E=MC² is the eleventh studio album by American pop and R&B singer Mariah Carey. The album was released on April 15, 2008 in the United States. The album name means "(E) Emancipation (=) equals (MC) Mariah Carey (²) to the second power". It is a play on Einstein's famous mass–energy equivalence formula and is the sequel to her 2005 album, The Emancipation of Mimi.

The album's music appeals to a lot of genres such as Pop, R&B and Hip hop, but some of her songs also include Gospel and Reggae beats. She experiments for the first time with reggae tones on "Cruise Control" and also uses a Jamaican patois during the second verse. On "Side Effects" she speaks about her marriage to Tommy Mottola describing it as a "private hell", the "emotional abuse" she saw during this time and the side effects from which she still suffers. MTV's author Jennifer Vineyard said it's "like a rock power ballad" and compared the music style to that of Bonnie Tyler and Pat Benatar. Two songs from the album sample melodies of other songs: one of them is the Seventies-soul-recalling "I'm That Chick" which samples Michael Jackson's "Off the Wall". The other song is "I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time," which samples DeBarge's "Stay with Me" and recalls the melodic riff of the "Hill Street Blues" theme music. Her second single "Bye Bye" is about the loss of her father, Alfred Roy, who died of cancer in 2002, and his absence during her childhood. Although the lyrics of the song mostly seems to be personal, she tries to keep the topic universal, so that everybody "who just lost somebody" can refer to it. The closing track "I Wish You Well" is a piano ballad kept simple with gospel influences. In the song she quotes some parts from the Bible.

Her music has this floating, ethereal quality to it. It is a soothing experience that makes you feel rested, peaceful. A fluttering warbler, this music soars. It is a quiet, reflective, emotional experience that leaves you wanting more. Mariah dresses like a diva, but she sings like an angel; a gift that reminiscent of some of the best female singers of all time. A girls girl, her personality and warmth is reflected in ever single song. Guaranteed to make you imagination drift, this one is like a warm summer breeze. One of a kind, dreamy and romantic, Mariah the singer has finally emerged.

James Sheehan, THE MAYOR OF LEXINGTON AVENUE, THE LAW OF SECOND CHANCES, novelist: Mr. Media Audio I - Apr 20,2008

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 04:03:03 GMT

I met James Sheehan at a St. Petersburg Times Festival of Reading event back in 2005. I was there promoting my new biography of Will Eisner and he was riding a wave of excellent reviews for his first novel, The Mayor of Lexington Avenue. As we got talking, however, we realized we had met before – through our dogs. Turns out, Jim and his wife literally live around the corner from me. I walk my dogs several times a day, and his dogs had figured out a way of tunnelling under the fence. They didn’t know how to get back once they were loose, however, so my wife and I returned them to the Sheehan’s yard more than once over the years. They’ve got a new fence now, so that doesn’t happen as often. A few weeks back, Jim and I met up again. He was on his way to South Carolina for a big booksellers event to launch his second novel, The Law of Second Chances. Jim gave me a copy to read and I knew it was time to get my neighbor on the show. open separate window
