Introduction On or about March 19, 1999, the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA" or the "Agency") issued an Administrative Order for Remedial Action (Docket No. III-99-012-DC) (the "Order") to fourteen (14) respondents (collectively, the "Respondents"), including Ecolaire Incorporated ("Ecolaire"), directing those parties to, inter .alia, implement certain remedial activities at the Welsh Road Superfund Site located in Chester and Lancaster Counties, Pennsylvania (the "Site"). Pursuant to Section XXV of the Order, EPA directed each Respondent to provide notice to EPA's Remedial Project Manager stating whether the Respondents would comply with the terms of the Order. Although the Order required such notice to be provided no later than two (2) days after the effective date of the Order, through mutual agreement among the parties, this deadline was extended to May 17, 1999. The purpose of this letter is to communicate Ecolaire's current intentions with respect to the Order, and, subject to the reservations below, to set forth a description of the "sufficient cause" defenses that are known to Ecolaire at the time of this letter.

NO BALLAD, NO CRY dele began writing new material for her follow- up record in April 2009. But not before she agreed to take a fl yer as an actress with a guest shot on the hit tele vi- sion sitcom Ugly Betty. It seemed like a harm- Aless diversion from all the drama and pressure in her life. She reasoned, how hard could it be to play herself? In the episode, Betty is dancing with her husband at their wedding when the couple is suddenly interrupted by Adele. Th ere is some harmless banter and the next thing we know Adele is up on stage singing the song “Right As Rain.” Adele realized that that kind of promotion in America was well worth the eff ort, but would later acknowledge in Vogue that the Ugly Betty experience cured her of any future acting aspirations. “I can’t watch it. I was so uncomfortable. I am the worst actress of all time.” But Adele was thankful for the momentary respite from Marc Shapiro her day job as singer-songwriter on the rise.

Led by pacesetters such as Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Bobby Bare, artists in Nashville and Austin demanded the creative freedom to make their own country music, different from the pop-oriented sound that prevailed at the time. This exhibition also examines the cultures of Nashville and fiercely independent Austin, and the complicated, surprising relationships between the two. Artwork by Sam Yeates, Rising from the Ashes, Willie Takes Flight for Austin (2017) 3-6 Introduction 3 This interdisciplinary lesson guide allows classrooms to explore the exhibition Outlaws and Armadillos: Country’s Roaring ‘70s on view at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum® from May 25, 2018 – February 14, 2021.

  • Best Gay Songs: 30–21 30
    Best gay songs: 30–21 30 “City Grrrl” by CSS Bad girls and gay boys have always been besties, and this 2011 track from Brazilian combo Cansei de Ser Sexy is a loving ode to that special relationship. Lead singer Lovefoxxx looks back on adolescent fantasies of "being busy with my job and my gay friends, laughing and drinking with my one-night stands" in the "big city." Anyone who's ever felt trapped in a small town (and eventually escaped) will definitely relate. —Ethan LaCroix Download on Amazon www.youtube.com/watch?v=duOA3FgpZqY 29 “Your Loving Arms” by Billie Ray Martin Most gay dance anthems are packed with drama of both the lyrical and vocal variety. But in 1994, German singer Billie Ray Martin invaded clubland with this icy floor filler that's so calm she almost seems detached. Don't let that near-monotone fool you, though—Martin is a formidable vocalist, and when she finally cuts loose ("Burning inside, burning inside, yeah!"), it's a master class in the art of delayed gratification.—Ethan LaCroix Download on Amazon www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVukIhibLYM 28 “Viz” by Le Tigre Before forming her dance-DJ-production project MEN, JD Samson stepped up to the mike as a member of this electro-rock trio. "Viz" (2004), about butch-lesbian visibility, offers an early glimpse of Samson's sly humor and her ability to make radical queer politics into dance-floor fodder. Bandmates Kathleen Hanna and Johanna Fateman join in on the final chorus for a joyous feminist sing-along.—Ethan LaCroix Download on Amazon www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMcCNzUyG5I 27 “The Jean Genie” by David Bowie The copper mullet, the lightning bolt across the face—in 1972, Bowie was at the peak of his androgynous alien phase, pushing Ziggy Stardust closer to the sun until he incinerated in a flash.

    Gautier detective's passion writing, singing songs | gulflive.com http://blog.gulflive.com/mississippi-press-living//print.html Gautier detective's passion writing, singing songs By Kevin Saucier June 01, 2010, 5:11AM Gautier Police Detective Matt Hoggatt plays his music at The Shed Barbeque and Blues Joint PASCAGOULA - When Detective Matt Hoggatt of the Gautier Police Department is not doing police work or hanging out with his family, he is actively pursuing his passion: songwriting. Hoggatt started playing guitar and writing songs in 2005, but that was not his first foray into music. Hoggatt has been a musician since he started playing trumpet in seventh grade at Gautier Middle School. He continued to play trumpet in the marching band at Pascagoula High School, and then he picked up the baritone at the Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. He later served in the Mississippi National Guard for seven years, playing trumpet and baritone in the National Guard band. "They say if you join the military you get to see the world," Hoggatt said. "If you join the National Guard you get to see the state. So I went everywhere in Mississippi you can possibly go, all the way up to the north, south, east and west, and pretty much once a month we'd play a gig somewhere. We were in all kinds of parades, festivals, fishing rodeos, you name it." Though none of his songs have been purchased, Hoggatt won a contest held by American Songwriter Magazine with a song he wrote called "21 at Normandy," and he was rewarded with a full-page interview.

  • Lady Miss Kier
    Lady Miss Kier Kier Kirby más conocida como Lady Miss Kier, mítica vocalista, co-productora y bailarina de los no menos míticos Deee Lite. Este combo neoyorquino con talante cosmopolita fue fundado en 1986 por la propia Kier y Super Dj Dimitry, a quienes poco después se unió Towa Tey conformando el núcleo definitivo de esa máquina de fabricar hits para las pistas de baile. Su primer single \"Groove Is In The Heart\", editado en el 91, que paso de ser un white label para dj\'s a vender millones de copias, significaba un equilibrio perfecto entre las demandas del mercado pop y las necesidades de las pistas de baile, resumiendo el hedonismo químico de aquella época. Su debut en formato álbum \"World Clique\" llegó poco después, un trabajo que ellos mismo calificaron como \"holographic techno soul\" y que fusionaba p funk, breaks, house y techno. La Kier ejerció además de estilista y directora de arte del grupo, asumiendo desde el diseño de vestuario hasta el concepto de los videos y el diseño gráfico. Su segundo álbum, \"Infinity Within\", llegó un año más tarde y constituía un disco de protesta en contra de la guerra del golfo y a favor del pacifismo. Musicalmente continuaba profundizando en las premisas Deee Lite aunque se orientaba hacia un contexto ligeramente más electrónico. Su último álbum oficial fue \"Dewdrop In The Garden\" (1994) -a parte del recopilatorio de rarezas \"Sampladelic Relics & Dancefloor Oddities\" (1996)- un ejercicio de liberación sexual alimentado de sustancias alucinógenas que marcaba el punto final en la trayectoria de una banda genial e inclasificable.
