    TRAVEL TREASURES 2018 SEE AMERICA COAST TO COAST Dear Friends, What a change time makes in modern day travel. Growing up in the 1960’s and 70’s my parents seldom ventured beyond our hometown of Louisville, Ky. On occasion we would visit some relatives in Portland, Tn. but most often Eastview, Ky. was our “vacation” destination of choice. Tere my Dad’s parents lived on a farm with plenty of felds, woods, clean springs to drink water from, and barns to play in. In the evening we could watch westerns on the black and white TV screen. I could only dream of one day possibly getting to go out west. Guess what? Tis year my wife Donna and I did just that. We went on the Black Hills-Grand Tetons-Canadian Rockies Tour in August. Words can’t describe how great this trip was. Te wonder and beauty of God’s grace through this North American creation, what has sometimes been called breathtaking, is no joke. Lots to see and do, if ever possible give this tour a try. It was beyond my dreams. Our desire for you (our Shockey friends) would be to look through this 2018 catalog and maybe fnd a tour of your dreams and become venturous enough to fulfll it. Life is too short not to. Travel is easy, exciting, and relaxing with Shockey Tours.

    A.Place in Time: City -.- Limerick Page 1 of 4 9I: / / A Place in Time i 'I The story of Louisville's neighborhoods '1 A publication @The CourierJournal B 1989 Limerick GENEROSITY WAS CORNERSTONE UPON WHICH IRISH AND BLACKS BUILT THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD By Pat O'Connor O The Courier-Journal imerick. Its very name brings up thoughts of the Irish -- shamrocks, leprechauns, the wearing of the green. But the Limerick neighborhood was home to a small, close-knit community years before the first Irishman put down roots in the area. Before the Civil War, much of the area was farm land. Starting in the 1830s, a small community of blacks lived in the area between Broadway and Kentucky Street. Many were slaves who labored on a large plantation at Seventh and Kentucky streets; others were free blacks who were household servants. In 1858, the Louisville & Nashville Railroad bought the Kentucky Locomotive Works at 10th and Kentucky streets for $80,000, and within a decade, the railroad had built repair shops and a planing mill. At about that time, many Irish workers began moving their families from Portland into Limerick, nearer their jobs. Typically, they lived in modest brick or wood-fiarne houses or shotgun cottages, which were later replaced by the three-story brick and stone structures that line the streets today. L & N also hired black laborers, who lived with their families in homes in alleys behind streets. But fi-om the mid- 19th century until about 1905, Limerick was known as the city's predominant Irish neighborhood. Some historic accounts credit Tom Reilly, an early resident, with giving the neighborhood its name, and others believe it was named for the county or city of Limerick, which is on Ireland's west coast.

  • Hypeade Lizzo Släpper Debutalbum – ”Cuz I Love You” Ute Nu!
    Lizzo - Cuz I Love You 2019-04-23 16:43 CEST Hypeade Lizzo släpper debutalbum – ”Cuz I Love You” ute nu! Den 19 april släppte den redan hyllade amerikanska artisten och flöjtspelande Lizzo sitt debutalbum ”Cuz I Love You”, på albumet finns även de tidigare släppta låtarna ”Juice”, ”Cuz I Love You” och ”Tempo (feat. Missy Elliot)”. I början av 2019 släppte 30-åriga Lizzo från Minneapolis den funkdoftande singeln ”Juice” som var hennes poppigaste låt hittills. Med rötter i hiphopen har Lizzo utvecklat ett eget retroinspirerat sound som andas soul, funk och pop. Hennes låttexter handlar om att må bra bra i och älska sig själv, och hitlåten "Juice" är bara ett av flera exempel på detta. “Four days into the new year, Lizzo released the first great song of 2019. The Minneapolis singer-rapper-flautist specializes in propulsive self-empowerment anthems — feel-good songs about feeling good about yourself — and ‘Juice’ may be her finest yet, a near-perfect retro-funk nugget that would have felt just right on a mirror-balled dance floor in 1982… If life were fair, (‘Juice’) would be as big as ‘Uptown Funk.’” – Rolling Stone “We’re just four days into January and we’ve got the best song of the year, and it just won’t get topped.” – British GQ Den 22 april började Lizzo sin första del av ”Cuz I Love You Too” turnén där samtliga spelningar redan är utsålda. Den 18 juli påbörjar Lizzo sin andra del av turnén ”Cuz I Love You Too” i Nordamerika och fram till dess kommer Lizzo att uppträda på musikfestivaler runt om i USA och Europa, nyligen uppträdde hon på Coachella i Kalifornien.

Message in the Music: Do Lyrics Influence ell-Being?W Abstract Music has long been an effective way to communicate to the masses, and lyrics have played a massive role in delivering this communication. Yet the opportunity for research on the role lyrics play in well-being is vastly underutilized. This paper is an exploration of the relationship between lyrics and positive psychology. I will discuss a brief origin of lyrics, examine the body of literature on lyrics as well as its gaps, and finally suggest potential application of lyrics ot increasing various aspects of well-being. We are only beginning to have the language to discuss the positive and negative effects of lyrics. The results of this exploration indicate that lyrics have the potential to increase two of the five elements of well-being in the PERMA model, positive emotions and meaning. It is suggested that you can increase well-being by mindfully listening to meaning-filled lyrics bolstered by music’s ability to influence emotion.

    Answers to Exercises 10/25/05 10:16 AM Page 1 ANSWERS TO EXERCISE 8-1 Suggested revisions: Young slave Frederick Douglass enjoyed indulging in his favorite fantasy about slave own- ers. In his fantasy, everyone conspired against the slave owners. Slaves still in bondage gave no hint of an impending escape. Members of the community never revealed the whereabouts of es- caped slaves. Slaves who escaped successfully never talked too much about how they got away. Recaptured slaves told their owners nothing at all. Even some white southerners who sympa- thized with the slaves gave no information to their slave-owning friends. Douglass enjoyed the fi- nal part of his fantasy the most. In it, Douglass imagined slave owners as being too afraid to hunt escaping slaves. The owners distrusted their slaves, their enemies, and even their friends.
