  ChrisWeigant.com — Authority: 422
  Welcome once again to our year-end wrapup and awards ceremony. Honesty dictates that I immediately genuflect to The McLaughlin Group , from whom I have stolen all these award categories. We will begin this week with Part 1 of these annual awards, and then next Friday on New Years Day, we will present Part 2 , ...

• Defining a Decade: Doves The Last Broadcast (2002)

  
  Quick Before it Melts — Authority: 495
  The cornerstone of my record collection has always been British indie bands.  A once-over of my shelves gives you a capsulized history of the last 30 odd years of English music:  Bowie, T.Rex, The Smiths, Echo & The Bunnymen, The Stone Roses, The Charlatans, The Beautiful South, Suede, Blur, The Chemical ...

• Defining a Decade: Broken Social Scene You Forgot it in People (2002)

  
  Quick Before it Melts — Authority: 495
  You Forgot It In People holds a very dear place in many people’s lives as well as a prestigious place in the cannon of indie rock music of this past decade, but that’s not why it is included on this list.  If the only criteria I set out for this list was “favourite music” then I’m not so certain that You ...

• Defining the Genre: Paranormal Romance

  
  Love Romance Passion — Authority: 479
  What is paranormal romance? Well we can easily define paranormal romance as subgenre of romance. But what is it really? Paranormal romance combines the supernatural world with that of the real, the natural, the plain. One lover is sure to be something special and the other lover is special because they are so plain; ...

• Defining the Decade: Bloc Party Silent Alarm (2005)

  
  Quick Before it Melts — Authority: 495
  Mid-way through “Positive Tension” Kele Okerele passionately sings “Something glorious is about to happen/a reckoning!” and I’ve often wondered if he knew that the reckoning he was prophetically summoning was the arrival of Silent Alarm , his band’s polarizing debut album.  In 2004, indie rock was ...

  Politics Daily — Authority: 783
  Filed under: Religion , Woman Up , International Last week, Mia and Luisita puzzled over whether or not labels are useful in defining who we are. This week, Id like to ask whether our identity is determined fundamentally by what we do or by our blood. Yeah, I know. Thats heady, metaphysical stuff for snowy ...

  Who were the Vikings? Vikings were warrior men from the Scandinavia region of the world including specifically Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Viking is linked to naval expeditions or naval raids. A member of such a trip is called a Viking. Typically it is thought that the Viking period began as early as 700 A.D. and ...

• Defining the Decade: Arcade Fire Funeral (2004)

  
  Quick Before it Melts — Authority: 495
  Malcolm Gladwell says that a tipping point is “the moment of critical mass, the threshold, the boiling point.”  He published his book in 2000, about 4 years ahead of what I liken was the tipping point in music for this decade.  Upon its release in September 2004, Funeral , the debut album from Montreal’s ...

• Failing Upward

  
  Midlife Crisis Queen: The Weblog — Authority: 421
  I heard a great expression the other day and I loved it!  Failing upward! So that’s what I’ve been doing for the past few years, and it seems to be working really well for me!  I now see every circumstance where I try to do something that fails, as a breakthrough learning experience. I have lost my fear of ...

• Defining a decade

  
  Quick Before it Melts — Authority: 495
  (illustration: J. Di Gioia) Technically, it’s not the end of the decade (that would be December 31, 2010), but for all intents and purposes, the 10-year span from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2009 is a decade, and it’s been a fairly significant one musically (of course, when are they not?).  Like ...

• The Trouble with TULIPS

  
  Heidelblog — Authority: 561
  When the young neo-Evangelicals, Billy Graham, Carl F. H. Henry, & co. established Christianity Today in 1956 they did so to offer an alternative to the more liberal Christian Century magazine. In its early years there was a strong confessionally Reformed presence in the magazine as writers such as Gordon Clark, ...

• What Makes a Virgin Hero Sexy?

  
  Love Romance Passion — Authority: 479
  There are two male extremes in romance novels. The first is the rake, who is a ladies man among ladies men. The second is the untested virgin hero. Both are equally well received if given the right set of circumstances, but the rake is by far the most likely hero candidate. Why? When as Jane from Dear Author points ...

I’ll call it Brendan’s Defining Days of the Decade . This project is ...
