Cesaria Evora, born in 1941 in the port town of Mindelo on the Cape Verde island of Sao Vicente, is known as the `barefoot diva` because of her propensity to appear on stage in her bare feet in support of the disadvantaged women and children of her country.

Long known as the queen of the morna, a soulful genre sung in Creole-Portuguese, she mixes her sentimental folk tunes filled with longing and sadness with the acoustic sounds of guitar, cavaquinho, violin, accordian, and clarinet. Evora`s Cape Verdean blues often speak of the country`s long and bitter history of isolation and slave trade, as well as emigration: almost two-thirds of the million Cape Verdeans alive live abroad.

This week marks the finale of season ten of Dancing With The Stars! On Tuesday night, a Pussycat Doll, an Olympic gold medalist or an ESPN host will be the next celebrity to take home a mirrorball trophy.

The finale fun kicks off on Monday, where each couple will take on a dance chosen by the judges. It will be an opportunity for each couple to improve on a dance they have underperformed in the past.

Here are some fashion tips hot off the catwalk. Have fun with these looks :))


Get The Military Look
-----------------
The military look is in for Spring 2010. Think calvary style jackets paired with washed out jeans. If you don`t like military style jackets, try matching a structured top with a casual bottom to be on top of the 2010 trend!

Beautiful song to our Penngal :))

We first noticed Diandra Soares during Lakme Fashion Week in early March because she was the most beautiful bald runway model we had ever seen. And, frankly, she was the only bald runway model we had ever seen. Former Miss Bombay explains `I went bald first ten years ago and I just felt like it...it`s just a personal thing.`

Soares says that she is still to come to terms with the attention that going bald has gotten her. `I saw a picture of myself on foreign websites, captioned as `Bald Indian model opens Fashion Week` and the like. I`m shocked at the level it has reached now,` she asserts.

Life Is Hard
Life Is Short
Life Is Painful
Life is Rich
Life is Precious

It`s a movie but Imagine that their are some children and women that actually have to live this nightmare and never make it out.

I am curious to know what support system do they have in Sri Lanka?

During their first joint visit to Haiti this week, George W. Bush appears to have wiped his hand on Bill Clinton`s shirt after shaking hands with a crowd of Haitians.

If that is what happened -- Breitbart.TV first raised the question after seeing the video below -- it builds on Barack Obama`s story of Bush`s compulsive need for hand sanitizer. But whatever Bush`s reason, it looks pretty bad.

Lately I`ve heard from a considerable number of women who basically got burned in relationships by guys who turned out to be less Prince Charming than ... Burpy, the Village Dolt.
So that got me thinking about what women might be able to do in order to discover what their potential life-mate is really made of, who the man behind the Dating Curtain really is. I finally arrived at the following six tests any woman can use to discover whether or not the man she`s dating is Mr. Right, or Mr. Lite.

Just west of Madison Square in the pedestrian mall between 5th and Broadway (23rd/24th). Full cups of Starbucks coffee in various shades from white to dark brown cover the plaza the length of a city block. 20,000 cups of coffee to be close to exact. The display is part of a Starbucks awareness promotion to alert us caffeine junkies of how much waste we are producing and to encourage the use of travel mugs. Employees from around the city collected the cups over the past few days, many in exchange for a reusable tumbler. The final pattern of the display resembled a redwood tree, and would be featured in a pre-Earth Day commercial. A Starbucks rep on site says when the installation is broken down the cups will be recycled `guaranteed`.

Beautiful amazing song, one of the most influential singers in the 80`ies, still making incredible beat and vocals. My cuz had her first album and as a kid I used to be scared of her :)) I can totally dig her songs now.

Enjoy the song!

To my sweet Bonggzzyyy :))

A place where nobody dared to go
The love that we came to know
They call it Xanadu

And now
Open your eyes and see
What we have made is real
We are in Xanadu

A million lights are dancing
And there you are
A shooting star
An everlasting world
And you`re here with me
Eternally

Xanadu, Xanadu,
(now we are here)
In Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu,
(now we are here)
In Xanadu

Xanadu, your neon lights will shine

twinkle twinkle little star
how i wonder what you are :))))
