1) Replacement Girl
2) Come Winter
3) Do What You Do Remix
4) The Presentation
5) Share

COMING SOON: "POLITICS IN THE HOOD"!!
Do you "Rock" Barack? Is the question...Nowadayz, everyone's into politics: celebrities, the fellas on the corner, the barbershops, the nail salons...I mean everybody! You see Sean "Diddy" Combs on youtube.com professing his admiration for Barack,as well as David Banner, Jay-Z, Don Cheadle, Samuel Jackson, Nas and so many are putting their Two-Cents into the political game. It seems like being politically aware is the new philosphy in the Hood. If your not up on whats going on day to day with the 2008 campaign trail, you may lose some of your street cred. Forget about this being A Capital Hill thing or A CNN moment, its now in your face in the streets of the USA. Everyone ask the Questions: How is this going to "CHANGE" our lives as AMERICANS not as Politicians?
"I think it’s so much our president can do. I say that because a lot of presidents don’t seem like human beings. They seem like straight-up businessmen who care about nothing but the business. Nah, you gotta care about the people.” -NAS

Skin-whitening ad ignites race row in India
A skin-whitening advert featuring Bollywood's hottest talents has reopened a debate about India's obsession with pale skin.
The whitening market in India is worth millions of pounds, with men as well as women routinely buying bleaching lotions in an effort to "improve" their complexion. The new ad featuring Saif Ali Khan, Priyanka Chopra and Neha Dhupia has triggered an angry reaction from some who think the advert is discriminatory and outdated.
"It is strange. There is such a premium placed on pale skin," said Urvashi Butalia, a historian and director of Kali for Women, India's first feminist publishing house. "I am not sure where it comes from. It may have something to do with India's history of being colonised by various people and that there is a hangover of the idea that Aryan people are superior and Dravidian people – those who were already here – are inferior."
What do you think? Is skin-whitening just the same as tanning? Or are there more serious implications?

Tired of reading about the negative side of humanity?
"City workers on overtime? Nope, no budget for that. These were "guerrilla gardeners," a global movement of the grass-roots variety where people seek to beautify empty or overgrown public space, usually under the cover of darkness and without the permission of municipal officials.
"What we're fighting is neglect," said guerrilla gardening guru Richard Reynolds of London, founder of the Web site guerillagardening.org" Tired of reading about the negative side of humanity? ... more -

Gothic Lolita' s lifestyle
Nicole è una ragazza di 18 anni che veste esclusivamente Gothic Lolita, una moda importata dal Giappone che si ispira al periodo del rococò e agli abiti femminili dell’epoca vittoriana. Esistono diverse tipologie di Lolite , ma il GothLoli è lo stile che Nicole preferisce: “perché è oscuro, misterioso ma anche molto affascinate”.

Creative Training! Il prezzo lo fai tu
Il primo corso di formazione in cui il prezzo lo fai tu.
Il prezzo lo fai tu e' una giornata formativa molto diversa dal solito, fuori dai canoni e fuori dal comune.
Pagherai alla fine del corso. Se pagare e quanto pagare lo decidi solo tu.
Quante volte, di fronte ad un problema o ad un imprevisto, ti sei chiesto o hai sentito dire "Di chi e' la colpa?" oppure "E io che ci posso fare se e' successo...?" La creativita' e' un'abilita' importantissima nella risoluzione dei problemi. Ci permette di vederli in un'ottica diversa e, insieme alla flessibilita', ci consente di pensare ed agire in maniera diversa.
