sarah brightman

The ex-wife of Andrew Lloyd-Webber and the original Christine from Phantom of the Opera.

Still a lovely lady, Sarah has carved quite a place for herself in pop, classical music, and crossover. Among her hits have been Con Te Partiro, with Andrea Bocelli, whose career soared because of her (Andrea had limited success with Con Te Partiro, and Sarah was enchanted when she heard him on the radio and she offered to record it with him as a duet, which they did.). Her Albums include Timeless/Time To Say Goodbye, Eden, and La Luna.

Truly an "Angel of Music", her multi-octave crystalline soprano graces her music and she often dances at her concerts, having taken dance/ballet for years. To top it off, she has lavish sets at her concerts. A true artist, she could teach Britney Spears a whole slew of things... if Britney were smart enough to learn.
"In the past, I always used to be looking for answers. Today, I know there are only questions. So I just live." -Sarah Brightman.

Mardi Gras

Translated litereally from French, "Fat Tuesday", this "holiday" has obscured origins and is now a marvolous excuse to march down the streets, to wear bright, often clashing, colors, to smash down the barriers of "heterosexuality" and "homosexuality" and to go crazy, drinking, streaking, and "playing" with whoever you want
From WLIIA: "I want yo uto do this scene like you're college girls going crazy at a Mardi Gras... action!"

Sarah Good was called to testify. The irritable beggar rarely went to church and often muttered under her breath when she was denied food or shelter; she was an easy target for accusations of witchcraft.

Boudica

An ancient warrior queen of the Iceni, a Celtic tribe in Britain during the time of Emperor Nero. When her husband died, the Romans ignored his will, which stated that his daughters and Rome were to rule his kingdom jointly; Boudica was flogged while her daughters were raped. Infuriated, Boudica rallied her people and neighboring tribes in a violent campaign against Roman occupation.
Boudica's people sacked many Roman forts, including London and Colchester, slaughtering their inhabitants and sending the survivors running... until Suetonius regrouped his army in the Midlands and defeated the indigenous army. Boudica poisoned herself to avoid capture.
Boudica, refusing to let her Roman attackers wrong not only herself and her daughters but their people, showed the Roman Empire that women could kick ass as well as any man.

Jane Goodall

Noun. Born in London in 1934. The woman who would devote her life not only to studying the chimpanzees of Gombe, Tanzania, but also to opening people's eyes to the fact that animals, too, have feelings and personalities. She thought nothing of giving names to the animals that she studied, something that was unheard of in her day. She observed the roots of what we would call "evil" in the chimps, as well as the love and affection that chimps have for their families and friends.

Known for her passionate but gentle style of activism and for her optimistic view of life, showing that we can all make a difference... because of this, her proper title would be "Our Lady of Hope".
Appreciative of the beauty and harmony of the natural world and of the animals, and determined to protect them, Jane Goodall is a true inspiration.
