Movie Actresses 10 Mar 2017
Movie Actresses 10 Mar 2017 251-2017-07 This article is about my favorite movie actresses of all time. Movie critics and most people will not agree with my picks. However, my criteria is quite simple - the actress must have made at least three movies I have seen and liked and would watch again if they happened to come on the TV movie channel when I’m in the mood to see a good show. I’m going to pick my Top 20 Actresses. I could not decide on a header so you can pick the one you like best.

He is perhaps best known for the songs, “Alison”, “Pump It Up”, “Everyday I Write The Book” and his rendition of the Nick Lowe song, “(What’s So Funny ‘Bout) Peace Love and Understanding”. His record catalogue of more than thirty albums includes the contrasting pop and rock & roll albums: This Year’s Model, Armed Forces, Imperial Bedroom, Blood and Chocolate and King Of America along with an album of country covers, Almost Blue and two collections of orchestrally accompanied piano ballads, Painted From Memory - with Burt Bacharach and North.

Costello has entered into songwriting collaborations with Paul McCartney, Burt Bacharach, the Brodsky Quartet and with Allen Toussaint for the album The River In Reverse, the first major label recording project to visit New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina and completed there while the city was still under curfew. In 2003, Costello acted as lyrical editor of six songs written with his wife, the jazz pianist and singer Diana Krall for her album, The Girl In The Other Room. He has written lyrics for compositions by Charles Mingus, Billy Strayhorn and Oscar Peterson and musical settings for words by W.B. -

With a captivating voice that sings about love, loss, and every day struggles, the band has become the voice of a new bicultural generation in the United States, fully immersed in modern music, but still close to their Latin American influences and Mexican heritage. They have won a Grammy; toured from coast to coast; collaborated with legends including Elvis Costello, Bunbury, Fito Paez; appeared on Conan; and most recently shared the stage with Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones and Pepe Aguilar. -

This, 2015, was the year that beauty went fully social, when A-listers valued their looks according to their “likes” and one Instagram post could connect with millions of followers. Case in point: the Ali MacGraw-esque look created for Kendall Jenner (THR beauty moment No. 9) by hairstylist Jen Atkin.

Bomb Blast Kills Lebanese President-Elect Monaco's Princess
(Enmwrttort Baily damjma Vol. LXXXV1 NO. 6 The University of Connecticut Wednesday. September 15, 1982 Gemayel to have begun term Sept. 23- Bomb blast kills Lebanese President-elect Fifty others reported dead or injured in the explosion BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) — Bashir Gemayel, the 34-year old president-elect of Lebanon, was killed Tuesday in a bomb blast at an office of his Phalangist Party in Christian east Beirutrepresen- tatives. He had survived two other attempts on his life. There was no claim of responsibility for the blast, which munitions experts said was caused by an estimated 400 pounds of explosives. Government radio said eight people were dead and 50 others were either killed or wounded. Lebanese Prime Minister Shafik Wazzan called the bomb blast "a criminal act" and said he would delay the reopening of the last crossing point between east and west Beirut that remains closed. Gemayel campaigned on a platform of a "strong and united Lebanon" and promised upon election Aug. 23 to purge his divided country of all foreign armies. Most Sunni Moslem legislators boycotted the uncontested parliamentary elections that gave Gemayel the presidency. Moslem leftists expressed fears a Gemayel government would bring reprisals for the 1975-1976 civil war, which pitted Christians against an alliance of Moslem leftists and Palestinian guerril- las. Gemayel's top aides said there would be o retribution for the bloody civil strife but many Moslems remained unconvinced. On the day he was elected, Gemayel vowed to represent "all Lebanon" and said he sought "to achieve unity among all Lebanese." Bashir Gemayel had said he would be the Wests strongest ally in the Arab world, and he also was expected to seek close ties with Israel, which has supported his right-wing Phalange militia since the civil war. -
