  • Richie Sambora Says Ex-Wife Heather Locklear Is ‘Still Hot’
    Richie Sambora Says Ex-Wife Heather Locklear Is ‘Still Hot’ By Louisa Gonzales Richie Sambora proves just because you’re no longer with former partner, doesn’t mean you stop being attracted to them. According to People, Sambora raved about his ex-wife Heather Locklear, while he attended friend, Ray Parker Jr’s, ceremony for his star on the Walk of Fame on Thursday in Hollywood. The rocker reportedly couldn’t stop complimenting her, and even said, “…she looks better than ever.” The ex- couple divorced back in 2007, but Locklear, 52 and Sambora are still close friends. Even though it took years for them to get to a good place, the Bon Jovi guitarist said focusing their efforts on their 16-year-old daughter Ava, helped them to let go and move on to where they are now. What are some ways to remain civil with your ex? Cupid’s Advice: Breaking up is never easy. Actually, relationships are a hard period. After a breakup, the best thing to do is to let go and move on, but sometimes your ex will remain a part of your life. Cupid has advice on some ways to remain cordial with an ex: 1. Respect their boundaries: Once you are no longer with your ex-beau, things will change between the two of you. Some things that were okay when you were in relationship won’t be okay anymore.

  • Desmond Child
    DESMOND CHILD For nearly four decades, songwriter/producer Desmond Child has reigned as one of music's most successful creative forces. His list of accolades includes Grammy awards, 70 Top 40 singles, and songs that have sold over 300 million albums worldwide. Child's career has been highlighted by a stunning array of diversity. His collaborations run the gamut... from Bon Jovi and Aerosmith to Ricky Martin,.. from KISS to Kelly Clarkson...from Mickey Mouse to Kermit The Frog… from Cher to Alice Cooper. "Desmond's a chameleon," Aerosmith's Steven Tyler told Rolling Stone. "The first time we met, we wrote 'Angel' in about an hour and 45 minutes - and I'm not bullshitting. The guy's a f#@king genius." Born and raised in Gainesville, FL, Child attended Miami-Dade College. It was in Miami that he formed the group Desmond Child & Rouge in 1973. Soon after, he moved the group to New York City to pursue their musical dreams. "My band Desmond Child & Rouge recorded two albums for Capitol in 1979 and we had a dance hit, ‘Our Love Is Insane,’” recalls Child. "But ultimately, we were doing something very different and urban. We weren't really understood by our label." Child’s experience as a recording artist would soon play a role in his songwriting future. His songs caught the ear of KISS guitarist Paul Stanley, who asked Desmond to co-write a track for the band's 1979 Dynasty album. The result was "I Was Made For Loving You," which is still one of the biggest hits in the KISS catalogue.

  • Music That Leaves Scars
    Music that leaves scars It was 1991. I had left high school already and had just started an apprenticeship at what was then British Rail. The world was still new and fresh and I was unburdened of any real responsibilities. The only reason I got a job is to pay for nights out with my mates, new guitar accessories and my main vice, CD’s. I had long been a fan of Bon Jovi ever since my best friend Stephen had got New Jersey and we had sat for hours playing battle games on his ‘Amiga’ (Ye olde day equivalent of a playstation) whilst banging our heads along to the great guitar riffs of Bad Medicine, Stick To Your Guns and Born To Be My Baby. But there had been a rift in the Bon Jovi camp and it appeared they may have split! Jon was clearly not suffering. He had already released the great ‘young guns’ soundtrack album, and was apparently working on the follow up. In these days before widespread world-wide webs, music downloads and you tube, I’d had no choice but to wait with baited breathe to see what the remaining ‘Jovi guys were up to. In September it came. The album that would change my life, and remain as one of my most adored albums ever, ‘Stranger In This Town’ by Richie Sambora. The mere sight of the cover had me trembling with anticipation, the silhouetted figure of the lonely cowboy under a dull streetlight with the guitar case sat at his feet. God I wanted to be this guy.

Retro Rewind: “Slippery When Wet” by Bon Jovi Maxwell Patton July 28, 2020 Bon Jovi is one of those rock bands that everyone has heard at least one song from, no matter where they grew up. Whether that tune is the working-class anthem “Livin’ on a Prayer,” the hard-hitting debut single “Runaway,” a ballad like “I’ll Be There for You” or “Never Say Goodbye,” or any other selection of their discography, each of us can relate to a Bon Jovi tune. They take us back to the time of glam rock, big hair, leather and Ray-Ban sunglasses, when teens could take in cult movies and enjoy a simpler life with friends. Without further ado, this week’s Retro Rewind will be an album that brings the nostalgic feelings of the 1980s to the forefront: their third studio album, “Slippery When Wet.” Released on Aug. 18, 1986, the record spawned four singles that have become rock radio favorites: “You Give Love a Bad Name,” “Livin’ on a Prayer,” “Wanted Dead or Alive” and “Never Say Goodbye.” What famous rock song inspired “Wanted Dead or Alive?” What drenched household item has the album’s title written on it on the cover artwork? How does a band come up with a name like “Slippery When Wet” for an album? Read on in this week’s Retro Rewind to discover these answers and more.

  • A Semicolon May Be Used in Place of a Period to Connect Two In- Dependent Clauses When the Two Clauses Share a Close Relation- Ship
    WHAT IS A SEMICOLON? A semicolon (;) is a stronger mark of punctuation than a comma but not as strong as a period. A semicolon is used between equal grammatical elements such as independent clauses and items in a series. Note: Semicolons do not link dependent clauses to independent clauses . [Incorrect] Because it was snowing heavily ; we decided to stay home. [Correct] It was snowing heavily ; we decided to stay home. A semicolon may be used in place of a period to connect two in- dependent clauses when the two clauses share a close relation- ship. Mary went to the grocery store this afternoon ; she purchased food for tonight’s dinner. Tom didn’t have enough time to finish his exam ; his class was only an hour long. A semicolon can also be used to join two independent clauses together with a conjunctive adverb (i.e. however , neverthe- less , therefore ). The semicolon is placed after the first inde- pendent clause and before the conjunctive adverb, and a comma is needed after the conjunctive adverb in front of the second independent clause. Brad knew of many different roofers to do the job; however, he called Ulti- mate Roofers to do the job because the owner is his cousin. Maggie has always been an excellent skier ; nevertheless, her parents were always wary of having their little girl on the slopes. Semicolons can also be used to separate items in a list if the elements in the series already include commas. The top five most visited cities in the United States are: New York, New York ; Las Vegas, Nevada ; Los Angeles, California ; Orlando, Florida ; and Chicago, Illinois.
