Most people believe that Swing Music began with Louis Armstrong in 1924, but it wasn't until mid 1935, when the & "Swing Era" was considered. The first performance was, Goodman's band whom was scheduled to perform at the Palomar Ballroom in Los Angels, California. Now this actually required the band to travel from the East coast to the West, making performance stops on the way. During these many stops, the "hot tunes" they tried playing were received poorly from the listeners. This All changed on August 21st, 1935 which was the official start of The Swing Era.
Shortly after this performance from 1935- 1946 every country club, night club, ballroom, radio, and even the background music of the movies was filled with swing jazz. People everywhere fox trotted to the sweet swing jazz tunes. Over this era some of the most popular music was made, from performers like Coleman Hawkins, Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Red Allen, Roy Eldridge, Benny Carter,John Kirby, The Dorsey Brothers, Fletcher Henderson, Cab Calloway, The Casa Loma Orchestra, Duke Ellington's orchestra, The Mills Brothers, The Boswell Sisters,Benny Carter, Bunny Berigan, Ella Fitzgerald, Glenn Miller, Jimmy Dorsey, Lester young, Nat King Cole, Teddy Wilson, The Andrews Sisters, Frank Sinatra, and many others.

Art Masterpieces in Time
If you leave your home you see art work all around, if you stay home, most likely you still see artwork. So, when did this all start? Over the past centuries no one can set in stone an actual time line pertaining the arts and sciences due to the everyday new discoveries. Some of the most famous have been documented to a specific time period due of the nature of the art."
The Gothic style (1280-1515) began with the architectures of the 12th century, at the height of the Middle Ages. The most known artwork from this time was done by the Limbourg brothers. Pol, Herman, and Jean Limbourg put allot of work into their joint masterpiece, *Les Riches Heures*.
The Renaissance style (1420-1600) might have been the most popular of all time most would say. I believe this may be where we find some of the greatest artists ever known. Some include the mighty Florentines, Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo Di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni, The Umbrian, Raphael Sanzio and The Venetians... Titian, Tintoretto and Veronese.
The Impressionists style (1860-1900) are unrivalled in their popular appeal. Their paintings are among the best and most loved in the world. Everyone I know has seen at least one piece of artwork from this style. The most familiar principal Impressionist painters were Vincent Van Gogh, Claude Monet, Pierre Auguste Renoir, Camille Pissarro, Alfred Sisley, Berthe Morisot, Armand Guillaumin, Bazille, Edgar Degas and Paul.
Last but not least you find The Modern Masters (1900-2000)that are constantly being updated with new findings."
Here are a few of my favorites, enjoy!
The Last Supper, Leonardo Da Vinci 1448
The Last Judgment, Michaelangelo 1515
Starry Night Over Rhone, Vincent Van Gogh 1888
La Promenade, Claude Monet 1875
Ballet Rehearsal Edgar Degas 1873

Theories for what will happen on December 12th, 2012
Well I didn't think I would be writing about this but here it is, remember these are just things that people are saying, so look at it how you want."
I'm sure you have heard many, conversations on a topic having to do with December, 21st 2012. There are alot of theories about the the end-date of the Mayan calendar,The New World Order:Obama deception, Biblical, and many more. These discussions usually range from ideas that the world will end, Marshal Law Order will come into play - to talks about prophecies of doom and gloom, where the calendar portends the “End” of our world from a global cataclysm. (Or simply nothing Will happen.) I will cover a few topics per day this week, so if anyone has any comments, just let me know.
Lets Start with the Myan Calendar end-date which is a 13-baktun cycle of the Mayan "Long Count" system of timekeeping that was set to end precisely on a winter solstice, also related to certain astronomical cyclbutvthis, yet this system was put in place around 2300 years ago. (The Mayan scholar Munro Edmonson believes that the Long Count was put in place around 355 B.C.) Astronomically December 21st, 2012 represents an extremely close conjunction of the winter solstice sun with the crossing point of Galactic Equator and the ecliptic. So as research shows, being the only fact is that the planets will align and that that unless changes are made regarding toxic dumping, pollution and the way we treat the environment, the end is not far off.
Theories are out there everywhere (see for yourself type the date into Google) some have it that December 21st, 2010 the sky is divided by the sun and all dry land will begin to rise, oceans will have a response to any tectonic shifts and finally the Earth will begin to flood. Some say that these will happen; Planet X wiping most life off the planet, meteorite impacts, black holes, killer solar flares, Gamma Ray Bursts from star systems, a rapid ice age or a polar (magnetic) shift. Well that's just a few, feel free to look up "Mayan Calendar". On a last note for this topic... if you remember December 31st, 1999 also known as the "Y2K" everyone believed this would cause caous and computers would turn over to 2000, but back to 1900....well I personally never heard of anything out of the ordinary following that night, so it makes sense that the calendar will roll on too.
The Obama Deception or The New World Order... there is much being said the Governments intention is to effect complete and total control over every human being on the planet and to dramatically reduce the world's population by 5.5 Billion people. I'm going to make it easy for you, just click on the link and watch the videos that I found. Fist is The Obama Deception http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAaQNACwaLw then see how the government is poised to inject you with a tracking chip manufactured by Applied Digital Solutions called
"VeriChip".http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2udoNmQkR4
Now consider the official Great Seal of the Unites States of America, (commonly seen on the back of the one the dollar bill. On the US Great Seal, beneath the ancient Pyramid, is the Latin inscription: "Novus Ordo Seclorum". The official translation of this motto is "A New Order of the Ages". Then there was February 19th, 2002 Common Era started (AD and BC became CE/BCE) and on December 13th, 2002 the UK Newspaper has an article that "History has to be rewritten as school bans BC and AD". I recommend looking for yourself.

Websites & Search Engines….Oh My!
I have found that once you have a website up and running doesn’t necessarily mean the headache is over… lets just say you took an aspirin. If only the site automatically started generating income. Well I can’t help with that but there are many ways to help this happen without all hassles. There are some key things that have helped a lot of people (which I will explain below) so try not to get frustrated, ask questions and as always I wish you best of luck in your business venture."
The first thing one should do is submit the site into a directory and become an “authorized” link. This allows Search Engines to index the site pages more efficiently; being the goal should be to climb to the top of the search engine. “What Search Engine” you may be asking yourself. Well this depends on the amount of money that is put in. There are many different directories out there with monthly, annually, or even no start up costs for website submissions. The best thing to do is pick one to start with and add or change later. Here are some just to get an idea, but be sure to do research on these and others since some do offer “Specials” time from time. Just remember…. “What you pay for is what you get.” On a last note, additional ways of become a “findable” site is another advantage."

...Previously On "ER".....
Wow, what a week! I'm gonna switch this up, kick it up a knotch,ya know take it back...way back..back to about 5 min ago.">smooth
So I'm searching google to sell "leads" the search comes back with "I want to sell my leads" so I click OK. Now the 1st thingy on the list is "I want to sell my big palm tree", so I'm like..."OK..." then the next one catches my eye (well it would catch yours too) "Sell your soul, I want to sell my soul to Satan". So now I'm a little confused, I mean really...your Soul? I then commented(TO MY FRIEND SITTING NEXT TO ME)this exact phrase "I'll be your Soul Pimp Bee-atch!" Yes, it was funny, she knows and I was here!
Anyways, the note I want you too leave with is this..."Don't be a pimp selling beee-atch with a Dawg pimp. Until tomorrow.... slap some baby powder on!BTW the title had absolutely nothing to do with this, she happened to say previously and I said E.R.
