Does anyone know where you can find the ceiling fan in the movie I, Robot? It is just a single blade that spins around, no light on it, and very futuristic/contemporary.
Well, a friend of mine found it for me, they DO sell it.

I am a big fan of contemporary christian music like this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZN41ifHO…
and when ever I tell people that I always get some weird looks 
..I do like secular music but I dont think that means you cant listen to Christian music or anything like that
I am not going to change my music tastes but when people can adore songs condoning sex and drugs why do people have such a aversion towards Christian music …
By the way how many of you do listen to Christian music (in any form)
Just wondering ….

I have been looking everywhere for a drum type lampshade in Sydney. There are none at IKEA, Freedom, Bunnings or Target. Has anyone actually seen one in the shops? It needs to be 50cm x 20cm. Here is a link of what I am after but in black or green. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/MODERN-NEW-RETRO-CONTEMPORARY-FANTASTIC-LAMPSHADE_W0QQitemZ380089671938QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Lighting_Fans?hash=item380089671938&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A2|65%3A1|39%3A1|240%3A1318
The seller does not post to Sydney.
I’m looking for chandelier ceiling fans, but not the kind that seem to be readily available everywhere as "chandelier ceiling fans".
I’m trying to find the kind that has the fan part close to the ceiling and then has the chandelier part drop down from the middle of the fan.
I’m interested in the more contemporary lines. Do these even exist?
Currently all I can find is where the fan and lighting part drop down from the ceiling together, which wouldn’t work for my purpose!
Any help/links would be greatly appreciated!
TIA!
I am curious about finding folksongs songs about and involving Finnish Folklore. I am a fan of some contemporary artists and I would like to integrate some songs into my performances. Can anyone direct me to a site or a piece of literature that has lyrics to folksongs?
I know that I could write my own, but I am seeking Traditional songs? any help would be appreciated.
After researching baby names, have you found that your baby-naming style has changed? In college, I would have thought that if I ever had a daughter her name would be Sydney. But here I am with 3 month old Genevieve on my lap. I am in love with under-used classics for girls and boys but used to be more of a contemporary name fan. Has your style changed?
bps_iove: I like your choices. I truly feel that middle names should be used to honor family and/or things important to you. Both of my children have two middle names, one as a tribute to family and one as a tribute to nature. I have Genevieve Gracelyn Sky and Hunter Kendall Forest as a result. Sorry to disappoint you, but they are special to me.
I’ll be going first time and we’ll stay at contemporary for 4 nights. Son is into pirates and mickey while daughter is fan of princesses. When they have the wireworks and are those reserved dinner, lunch, breakfast places something must, to make little ones remember for long time! we have some reservations for Kennedy space and arabian nights.
I am so stressed and puzzled over it. Thanks for advance.
Thank you all so much!
I wish I could mark all of you with best answer. Thanks lisagoesshopping, godsgirl2travel, beach gal, tech-fanatic, gigi, alamo.
I was most blown away by website www.allearsnet.com by tech-fanatic. It’s still open on my screen.
Thanks,
In today’s Sun newspaper Chris Evans has called for the iconic Abbey Road studios – made famous by The Beatles – to be saved from property developers. The recording venue in London is being sold by its owners EMI. Chris argues that, "The Beatles are to contemporary music what Shakespeare is to the written word. Someone has to buy it and save it. It’s too important.’ Beatles fans have also been camping out to save the historic site.
What do you think?
I’m a huge NFL fan, but never watch college football. What is Tebow’s throwing motion and how does it differ from contemporary NFL quarterbacks?

Just wondering ….
East Coast Assassin did you even go thru the link I sent…
The nominees are…
"Growing Pains" Mary J. Blige
"Back of My Lac’" J. Holiday
"First Love" Karina
"Year of the Gentleman" Ne-Yo
"Fearless" Jazmine Sullivan
I’m watching "Mad" by Ne-Yo on Youtube on another browser. I’m very much impressed w/ today’s rhythm & blues artists. I don’t c "As I Am" by Alicia Keys on here; I assume it was nomin8d last year. & I think "Growing Pains" came out during the 1st days of the eligibility period; it came out last fall. Un4tunately Hot 94.1, Bakersfield’s most-listened-2 station, plays a mix of hip-hop w/ R&B, so I guess I can only find pure R&B stations online. That could explain y I never really heard anything regularly from MJB, not even "Just Fine." Ne-Yo is certainly the most popular on Hot 94.1, & he’s popular w/ some of the Answerers. I’m impressed w/ him myself; I think he sets the archetype for male R&B crooners. That said, he can win this. But perhaps some recognition should go to Jasmine Sullivan as well. I never really heard Karina’s hits, & I’ve only heard J. Holiday’s "Bed" & "Suffocate."
So who do u like? Any Karina, J. Holiday or Jazmine Sullivan fans out there? The 51st Grammys take place 2/8 on CBS.
Did you know that she is staring in a new itv series called Honest ? (more info – http://www.itv.com/Drama/contemporary/Honest/default.html)
Also – will you be watching the new series on New Tricks next year – i love it – the theme tune is brilliant – lol
I love her – she’s one of the best actresseson TV! – do u agree ?
sorry if the link doesn’t work.

I am a huge fan of Karen Chance, basically she writes contemporary romance novels with a human female main character and Vampires, Mages, Trolls, Fey etc.. lots of fighting and magic and great love scenes!
So now you know what I like, suggest away!
I used to like rap, i used to have a lot of classics on my iPod.
The first 2 Kanye West albums, Be, Reasonable Doubt, Madvillainy, Raising Hell, the First 2 Public Enemy albums, illmatic, Only Built 4 Cuban Linxx, By Any Means Necessary, New Danger (Mos Def), etc…
It’s just that i discovered alt-rock/prog.rock, and some electronica albums too.
I’m not kidding, i was a REAL hip-hop fan, contemporary hip-hop fan.
And I have always despise mainstream hip-hop, Lil Wayne songs are pieces of dirty toilet paper, and 50 Cent rhymes are as clever as the literal value of his name (50 Cent), actually mainstream hip-hop is what made me try rock music.
listen to :
"Army of Me" by Bjork
"Time For Heroes" by The Libertines
"Ever Fallen in Love" by Buzzcocks
"Walk on the Wildside" by Lou Reed
"Exit Music (for a film)" by Radiohead
And then have the guts to come here and comment that "rap is sooo much better than rock".
Oh, and by the way….FLASH NEWS, I am N-O-T white.
He had no fan, no friend, even his sister misused him. But why did he wrote those glorious books; for the next generations? Why? Does a dead man care if they read his books?
Phil K, I asked this question here because here are less mindless horny teenagers who wish to get screwed as young as 12, and thus I could get better answers. Do you think Nietzsche had the same reason?
Shazu2zi, you should read more too. For example read this:
"Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche compiled The Will to Power from Nietzsche’s unpublished notebooks, and published it posthumously. Because his sister arranged the book based on her own conflation of several of Nietzsche’s early outlines, and took great liberties with the material, the consensus holds that it does not reflect Nietzsche’s intent. Indeed, Mazzino Montinari, the editor of Nietzsche’s Nachlass, called it a forgery in The ‘Will to Power’ does not exist. For example, Elisabeth removed aphorism 35 of The Antichrist, where Nietzsche rewrote a passage of the Bible (see The Will to Power and Nietzsche’s criticisms of anti-Semitism and nationalism)."
What do you call this? Misunderstanding? Or misusing someones ideas to make a filthy ideology like Nazism?
I would write down my thinking in my diary. But I need another motivation to print them and expect others to read my thoughts.
Let’s Go Japan!
Category:Special Exhibition
Date:15 Oct 2006
Time:10.00am – 9.00pm
Venue:River Room
In conjunction with Hidden Faces: The Art of Japanese Masks, the ACM (Asian Civilisations Museum) is going Japanese for the day.
Be heralded into the museum with a resounding opening of Taiko drums. Enjoy a warm cup of green tea as you observe the quiet art of the traditional tea ceremony, the contemplative way of Ikebana and the intricacy of wearing a traditional kimono. Try your hand at making traditional Japanese paper from scratch. Be mesmerised by the grace of the buyo dancers.
Perhaps you are more a fan of contemporary Japanese culture? Then you will enjoy the mini bazaar that is full of things to buy and goodies to eat. Fans of anime, be sure to attend our anime marathon. The night really lights up with our J-Rock concert as young musicians belt out popular Japanese hits. SuperBand Lucify will be performing!
So come to ACM and Let’s Go Japan!
Reduced entry of to the museum.
For beginners that is. I have been googling for information and found hips of places, but got a bit lost when it comes to the variety in prices and the teaching techniques.
Mind I’m 29, and even though I love modern dancing I never had the chance to do it before. Plus I am into what Isadora Duncan used to do, and I’m afraid that some of these places might present me with these genres which I might not particularly be much of a fan of, like modern African dance for instance. See even though I’m mixed and have an African background myself, that isn’t exactly my kinda thing. I’m in it because of Isadora Duncan, I love her routines,and what she used to do is my kind of thing.
Does anyone know what kind of place would suit me better in London??
Thanks a million!!!!
Dear Friends,
I was reading about the enigmatic Harbhajan Singh.
Harbhajan Singh has proved himself as wicket-taking bowler for India now after the retirement of Kumble. Here are some examples:
- in Galle, a ten-wicket match haul to complete India’s series-levelling win against Sri Lanka in the second Test
- in Hamilton,maiden five-for against New Zealand on a flattish deck .
- five in an innings against every Test-playing nation barring Bangladesh
- Four Tests since Kumble’s retirement have fetched Harbhajan 22 wickets,
Maybe Harbhajan’s best lies ahead of him..he is 28-29 I think ?
However, this is my main question, and it may surprise some of you…Harbhajan Singh has a massive fan base in the subcontinent! I think that he is well liked everywhere else except in Australia, partly due to his bowling and partly due to the entertainment he provides in the field.
How he is percieved in West Indies, England and South Africa, maybe you guys can tell me?
Is it because of cultural difference that Harbhajan is viewed in a different light in Australia? Or what it is exactly?
What are your thoughts?
Thanks and have a good-night/ day

Throughout the 1970’s & sometime after, Dolomite was among the black comedians making "party records". Others like LaWanda Paige, Red Foxx & Richard Pryor were some of his contemporaries.
His tales of street life & comedic sexual encounters would influence rappers & comedians for decades to come.
The records are rare these days. You’re more likely to come across his movies like: Disco Godfather, Dolomite & Petey Wheatstraw.
[preferably bands/musicians that started in the past decade]
BQ: Who will have the most MJ/Beatles type fans, with their profile pics and account names all about them?
BQ1: Who will be the most debated with extreme fans and extreme haters?
BQ2: Who will have influenced most musicians? (who will have inspired a new genre for example)
BQ3: Who will be totally forgotten and never mentioned?
BQ4: Will Y!A still exist in 50 years?
BQ5: Will the internet still exist in 50 years?
I just spent the entire semester reading some pretty heavy material for school and now that I’m finally finished I am looking for some light summer reading. I am generally a fan of the classics (Austen,Bronte, Dickens, Dostoevsky), historical fiction and contemporary fiction but right now I am simply looking for something fun and heartwarming to read (please no sad stories).
*And please NO Twilight*
According to Westward News:
Published on September 04, 2008
Police arrested 154 people in Denver last week, most of whom were involved in protests of one sort or another. Buried in this list is the name Frank S. Fairey, which contemporary art fans will recognize as the birth name of one of the most famous street artists in the world: Shepard Fairey. He was in town as part of the Manifest Hope gallery show featuring art inspired by Barack Obama
Though it was the fourteenth such arrest for Fairey, who got his start in the early 1990s with the Andre the Giant Has a Posse sticker campaign, the experience ranks as one of the most unusual.

14th arrest? There is no rehabilitating some people, it seems
I’m not even a country fan and I like Rascal Flatts. I got into them when I heard the song "Skin" while getting my haircut a while ago. Last week I saw them perform a cover of "Life is a Highway" on Ellen’s show and was completely sold. "Me + My Gang" is currently one of my favorite songs.
I’ve never been a big fan of country music, but I am open-minded and am looking to see if there are any good groups similar to Rascal Flatts. Pandora.com hasn’t really helped too much, which is why I am asking here. Any suggestions?
Does anyone know of some really good modern day poets.
I am a fan of Edgar Allen Poe and I wanted to know if there was anyone that done poetry in a similar vain but for a more modern audience. (Also I am quite fond of Spoken Word as well)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
