Deee-Lite – Groove Is In The Heart

Deee-Lite - Groove Is In The Heart

With the massive popularity of their hit single “Groove Is in the Heart,” Deee-Lite brought the colourful sights and sounds of New York’s club culture into the mainstream. Formed in 1986, the trio was led by vocalist Lady Miss Kier (born Kieren Kirby in Youngstown, Ohio) and fleshed out by a pair of DJs, Super DJ Dmitry (a classically-trained guitarist and Russian emigre born Dmitry Brill) and Jungle DJ Towa Towa (born Doug Wa-Chung in Tokyo, Japan).

Fusing house, techno, rap, ambient and funk music with an outrageous visual flair largely influenced by the drag-queen community (Kier’s fondness for Fluevog platform shoes helped the 1970s fashion revival gather steam), Deee-Lite became hugely popular among New York club denizens, and the trio’s own unique cultural make-up earned them a following which ignored racial and sexual boundaries. In 1990, they debuted with the album World Clique, a crossover smash thanks to hits like the loping classic “Groove Is in the Heart” (featuring the fluid bass of Bootsy Collins and the saxophone of Maceo Parker) and “Power of Love.”

With their 1992 follow-up Infinity Within, Deee-Lite’s music turned overtly political as songs touched base with hot topics like the environment, safe sex and democracy. Towa Towa left the group soon after; rechristened Towa Tei, he released his solo debut Future Listening in 1995. Kier and Dmitry, meanwhile, enlisted DJ Ani for 1994’s Dewdrops in the Garden, a sensual outing influenced by the growing rave culture. After the release of 1996’s remix album Sampladelic Relics and Dancefloor Oddities, Deee-Lite disbanded.

Greek Style Mini Spring Lamb Roasts

Greek Style Mini Spring Lamb Roasts

Ingredients

1kg baby or chat potatoes, halved
Handful oregano leaves
12 garlic cloves, unpeeled & bases removed
3 tbsp olive oil
1½ tbsp chopped oregano
2 tsp chopped rosemary
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp lemon juice
1½ tbsp olive oil

½ tsp cracked black pepper
2 x 400g lamb mini roasts
Green salad to serve

Equipment
2 x non-stick baking trays
Medium mixing bowl
Spoon
Tongs
Aluminium foil
Carving knife

Preparation method

1. Roast potatoes Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Place potatoes on baking tray and scatter over oregano and garlic cloves, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Place on top rack of oven for 30 mins.

2. Marinate meat Meanwhile, place oregano, rosemary, garlic, zest, juice, olive oil, salt and pepper in bowl, stir to combine. Put mini roasts in bowl and coat with marinade. Place on second baking tray.

3. Remove potatoes from oven, turn and crush lightly using back of spoon, and return to top rack. Roast lamb with potatoes for 20 to 25 mins for medium, or until cooked to your liking.

4. Rest lamb Remove lamb from oven, cover loosely with foil and rest for 10 mins. While lamb is resting, increase oven temp to 250°C (230°C fan) to crisp up potatoes for 10 mins. Remove potatoes from oven and season with salt and pepper.

Mini lamb roasts are a great alternative to a large leg as they’re much faster to cook and carve.

Lost In Space Robot

Lost In Space Robot

If you just won the lotto, what would you buy? Don’t say all that boring stuff like, pay the morgatge, buy a boat, take a vacation, quit your job (hmmm come to think of it, quitting that job could be fun!). How about owning your very own life sized, limited edition, individually numbered and fully licensed hand built replica of the Lost in Space Robot?

The Lost in Space Robot is one of pop cultures top animations and what makes this replica so cool is that it has over 500 voice tracks recorded by the original voice in the 1965 TV show, Richard Tufeld who sadly passed away in January 2012.

With phrases such as “Danger, Will Robinson” The Lost in Space Robot also has a functional Power Pack. When you Pull the Robot’s “Power Pack” out, it will shut down the Robot with the “Aaghhhhhh…” sound, just as it did in the TV series when Dr. Zachary Smith wanted to shut him up.  Plugging in the power pack activates the Robot and he will speak an appropriate phrase, “Who turned out the lights?”, etc. You will feel as though you are onboard the Jupiter 2 with all the cast.

The Lost in Space Robot is a Class M-3 Model B9, General Utility, non-theorising environment control robot, which has no given name. Although a machine endowed with superhuman strength and futuristic weaponry, he often displays characteristics such as laughter, sadness and mockery as well as singing and playing the guitar.

Lou Gehrig Biography

Lou Gehrig Biography

Hall of Fame baseball player Lou Gehrig was born in New York City in 1903. A standout football and baseball player, Gehrig signed his first contract with the New York Yankees in April 1923. Over the next 15 years he led the team to six World Series titles and set the mark for most consecutive games played. He retired in 1939 after getting diagnosed with ALS. Gehrig passed away from the disease in 1941.

Henry Louis Gehrig was born in the Yorkville section of Manhattan in New York City, on June 19, 1903. His parents, Heinrich and Christina Gehrig, were German immigrants who’d moved to their new country just a few years before their son’s birth.

The only one of the four Gehrig children to survive infancy, Lou faced a childhood that was shaped by poverty. His father struggled to stay sober and keep a job, while his mother, a strong woman who was intent on creating a better life for her son, worked constantly, cleaning houses and cooking meals for wealthy New Yorkers.

A devoted parent, Christina pushed hard for her son to get a good education and got behind her son’s athletic pursuits, which were many. From an early age, Gehrig showed himself to be a gifted athlete, excelling in both football and baseball.

After graduating from high school, Gehrig enrolled at Columbia University, where he studied engineering and played fullback on the football team. In addition, he made the school’s baseball team, pitching solidly for the club and earning the nickname Columbia Lou from adoring fans. In one famous game, the young hurler struck out 17 batters.

But it was Gehrig’s bat that appealed to the New York Yankees, who in April 1923, the same year Yankee Stadium first opened, signed Gehrig to his first professional contract. The deal included a $1,500 signing bonus, a fantastic sum for Gehrig and his family, which allowed him to move his parents to the suburbs and, more important, play baseball full-time.

Peach Crumb Bars

Peach Crumb Bars

Ingredients

  • 4 1/2 cups peaches, peeled, pitted and diced (about 8 small peaches, use firm but ripe)
  • 1 3/4 cup granulated sugar, divided
  • 3 1/2 Tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ginger
  • 2 Tbsp orange juice
  • 1 tsp orange zest (optional)
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup salted butter, cold and diced into cubes
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbsp Turbinado sugar (optional)

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. In a large mixing bowl, toss peaches with orange juice and optional orange zest. Sprinkle sugar mixture over peach mixture and toss to evenly coat, set aside.
  • In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Cut butter into flour mixture with a fork or pastry cutter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, whisk together egg, sour cream and vanilla extract. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture and stir until well combine. Add in remaining 1 cup granulated sugar and stir until combine. Spread and press half of crumb mixture into an even layer in a greased 13×9 inch baking dish. Toss peach mixture once more and pour over bottom crumb layer and spread peaches into an even layer (spread juices evenly too). Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture over top of peaches into an even layer. Sprinkle top evenly with optional Turbinado sugar. Bake in preheated oven 45-50 minutes until golden. Serve warm with optional vanilla ice cream or allow to cool and cut into bars (Note: I prefer these bars warm but you could also serve them cold with sweetened whipped cream). Store bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Recipe Source…..www.cookingclassy.com

Vintage Industrial Furniture

Vintage Industrial Furniture

This company started in the garage as a passionate hobby and soon bloomed into something much more. We’ve had our fair share of struggles but have prevailed and now know our path. Build furniture that we love with a design and materials that can last centuries so it can be passed down from one generation to the next. Run the company with a conscience, like a nurturing family, and treat employees and clients like we want to be treated. Be ambitious, do things very differently than corporate America, it’s not about getting rich. It’s about waking up everyday, doing something you are passionate about, and improving yourself and the world a little. Don’t follow the trends, set them.

The Vintage Industrial furniture trend is in full swing right now. This is partly because people are sick of the throwaway stuff. We’ve all bought furniture and products (from Asia) that only lasted a year or two. This has caused a sharp decline in American manufacturing companies like ours. And a huge increase in foreign imports. America doesn’t really make anything tangible anymore, not like we used to. We’ve gone white collar spending most of the day on computers in a virtual world.

How can we change this?

Buy American made products from companies that you believe in.

Ask yourself “is this just going to end up in a landfill soon?”

Naomi Campbell Biography

Supermodel Naomi Campbell was born in London on May 22, 1970. She began modeling at age 15, becoming the first black woman on the cover of French Vogue at 18, and the first black model on the cover of Time. On a few occasions, Campbell’s hot temper got her in trouble with the law. In addition to modelling, Campbell launched a singing career and a perfume.

Supermodel and actress Naomi Campbell was born May 22, 1970, in London, England. The daughter of a Jamaican-born dancer and unnamed father, Naomi Campbell attended Dunraven School and the London Academy for Performing Arts as a youngster.

She studied at Italia Conti Academy stage school and appeared in music videos for            Bob Marley and Culture Club before signing with Synchro modeling agency at age 15.

One of the world’s most renowned supermodels, Naomi Campbell was the first black woman to appear on the covers of French and British Vogue and the first black model to appear on the cover ofTime.

While the exquisitely exotic leggy supermodel began her career on the catwalk, she quickly segued to high-profile advertising campaigns for such fashion icons as              Ralph Lauren and Francois Nars. Naomi Campbell has also posed for more erotic fare, including Playboy magazine and Madonna’s book Sex.

In addition to modeling, Campbell has pursued acting and music careers, the latter of which has been particularly successful in Japan. Her singing career peaked with the hit “Love and Tears.” Though her debut album Baby Woman sold over 1 million copies, it was a critical flop.

Campbell has appeared in several music videos and films, including Cool As Ice and Miami Rhapsody. She is the co-author of the novel Swan and has published a self-titled photo book. An ambitious businesswoman, Naomi Campbell has created two spin-off companies, NC Connect and a perfume line. Read More……..biography.com
