The fact that the strict principles classical music from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries adhered to became the foundation of pretty much any musical genre that was going to emerge after the heydays of its original composers should not be surprising to anyone remotely into music.

Food companies that we enjoy are not organically produced for the most part, but are just easier...

The film “Nickel and Dimed: From the American Ruling Class” shows the life of low-wage workers in Americas society. In this video, Barbara Ehrenreich went about trying to mimic their life style and work ethic firsthand, living as a low-wage worker.
