Raise Your BrushRead MoreAfter finding great joy as an art teacher for more than a decade, Laura Carter and her husband Andy, decided to take their love of art outside the traditional classroom and establish Raise Your Brush. A short time later, the art studio, which unites painting lessons with social drinking, began to garnish high praise for it's casual atmosphere. Such praise came from both customers as well as local media outlets including Living Dayton. During each painting class—Laura's most popular offering—students are first encouraged to loosen up with a glass of wine or beer from the studio's newly remodeled bar. Students then cozy up to tables to make the most of the included supplies, ranging from aprons to acrylic paints to blank, potential-packed canvasses. In the ensuing hours, amateur artists recreate the evening's theme-specific image with the help of Laura's artistic eye and articulate tongue. Though the themes constantly change, past images have included cityscapes, a fleur de lis, and moonrises. Regardless of the night's theme, all students are free to take their homework straight home to display on any already vibrant mantle or surprisingly lonely family room wall.169 N Main StCenterville, OH US
My Pilates Studio CentervilleRead MoreAt My Pilates Studio, a team of Pilates instructors, many of them certified by Stott, lead classes ranging from ballet barre to prenatal Pilates. In studios with shining hardwood floors and mauve walls, students strengthen their cores, increase their flexibility, and boost their overall wellness with top-of-the-line equipment and supportive peers. The studio strives to create a soothing atmosphere with features such as a burbling fountain, freshly cut flowers, and soft lighting.8100 Miller Farm Ln.Centerville, OH US
Kimberly's KindermusikRead MoreKimberly Denney has dedicated her entire adult life to teaching music to kids. After receiving her BA in music education and MA in education administration, Kimberly taught music and band in public schools for 21 years. Now she teaches Kindermusik to families in Dayton and Cincinnati. At her school, Kimberly and her team of instructors lead children from newborns to 7-year-olds in playful music classes with the goal of helping kids develop into great learners—not necessarily the next Mozart. Children sing, dance, and play age-appropriate instruments, all while developing a variety of skills in language, literacy, socialization, and problem solving, as well as improving their self-esteem. Parents and children receive Kindermusik@home materials that include a variety of activities to continue learning at home between weekly classes.3939 Stonebridge Rd.Kettering, OH US
Leelaa YogaRead MoreMany are familiar with the saying "Love what you do and do what you love," but few actually live it. When Missy Steed discovered massage therapy, she finally found the thing that made her truly happy: making others happy. A graduate of the Dayton School of Medical Massage, Missy is well versed in most of the classic treatments, including relaxation, deep-tissue, and cold-stone massage. Additionally, she is also a certified infant massage instructor who leads classes that teach parents how to pamper their little ones at home. These classes, and the subsequent treatments lavished upon the lucky kids, can have numerous benefits. They promote bonding between parents and children and also relax infants after a long day of refusing to eat or arguing with the cat about whose tiny sweater is cuter.72 North Main StreetSpringboro, OH US
Prodigy Training CenterRead MoreInside Prodigy Training Center's state-of-the-art facility, rows of weight-training equipment and a turf training area form the venue for all manners of pulse-pounding workouts. Here, seasoned fitness coaches push their students to the limit as they help them shed pounds and build overall strength and endurance. In addition, the studio conditions minds and muscles during several self-defense classes, including krav maga, jujitsu, mixed martial arts, and wrestling.235 S Pioneer BlvdSpringboro, OH US

Although not included with this Groupon, if the flawed workout plan you concocted yourself results only in frighteningly muscular ring fingers, one of Anytime's motivating trainers can prescribe a regimen designed to help you meet your fitness goals. Complete the sculpting of your flesh-statue with an Apollo finish in Anytime's tanning beds ($25 tanning fee), and then purify yourself of sweat and fried-cheese memories in Anytime's private showers.728 N Main St.Springboro, OH US

Map making can be as simple as making a sandbox grid and have a bunch of pre-made items that take up one cube each that anybody without any even any command line, let alone any coding skill can put together a map all on their own in an hour using all pre-fabricated items already found in the standard game. This alone would make all OSS games fore more interesting to play.
It was tools like those that allowed games to have allot more replay value and caused a dedicated community to build up around the game.
If you are a perspective OSS dev, shoot for something closer to Garry's Mod over a canned shooter and you will actually build a community around the game of more then a handful of narcissistic coders that can't be bothered to do anything but tell people to hand code it themselves.

I'm finally ready to share my life
I am finally ready to be in a relationship. I didn't think I would say that for a long time. I thought i had to be finished with graduate school, and professionally secure before I would be ready. But then one day I woke up and realized that life is short and there is no perfect time. I've done so much soul searching in the last few years. I've really put a lot of thought into all of my mistakes and am ready to take the chance again with love. I miss being in love. I am picky. Not with appearances so much as someone who is not confident. Confidence is important, because when you're confident with yourself as a human being, you don't need anyone to prove that to you. You don't need validation. You just know. I believe that honesty or lack of can either make or break a relationship early on. Even if you try to build a life together, years can go by and eventually it will break because honesty was not made a vital priority. I want someone who is willing to take risks, and finds humor in the smallest of things. I just want a man who has lived, made mistakes, and learned from them. One who's mistakes has made him a better person, not one with bitterness, fear, or resentment. I'm willing to take a chance on someone and I need for him to be willing to take a chance on me. It's worth it.

Updated: June 14, 2010, 6:37 PM ETBy Jon Coen
Last winter at the Billabong Pipeline Masters, Flynn Novak was the last Hawaiian left standing for the quarterfinal round. That's some feat considering the bombing Pipe early in the event. He would lose to Kelly Slater, but not before cementing his position as one of the greatest Pipe riders today.
Then in January, at the Volcom Pipeline Pro, he lost a Round of 64 heat to fellow North Shore hellmen Marcus Hickman and Jamie O'Brien (the eventual winner.) The unusually ...

text: Jun 3, 2013 22:29 Textbook bill gutted by Senate Textbook bill gutted by Senate the associated press June 03, 2013 Comments The state Senate gutted a Louisiana House-passed bill Monday that sought to give local school districts the ability to choose their own textbooks rather than have to follow a state-approved list in order to use state dollars to pay for them. Senators turned the House Bill 116 into a study commission to review the issue. With that rewriting, the Senate then passed the measure in a 37-1 vote, sending it back to the House for consideration of the change. State Rep. Frank Hoffmann, R-West Monroe, wanted to establish that the state Board of Elementary and Secondary Education can't require local school districts to purchase specific textbooks or instructional materials, saying locals should have the ability to make their own decisions. Critics questioned whether the change would allow substandard teaching and let creationism be introduced in public school science classes. Under the rewritten bill, an 18-member Task Force on Textbooks and Instructional Materials would be created in the state education department to review the process for selecting textbooks and make recommendations for revisions to the law. The task force would make recommendations to the House and Senate education committees by Feb. 1. More Politics stories Out of the state an average of 4 of 10 days, Gov.

DEFINITION of 'Equity Swap'
An exchange of cash flows between two parties that allows each party to diversify its income, while still holding its original assets. The two sets of nominally equal cash flows are exchanged as per the terms of the swap, which may involve an equity-based cash flow (such as from a stock asset) that is traded for a fixed-income cash flow (such as a benchmark rate), but this is not necessarily the case. Besides diversification and tax benefits, equity swaps also allow large institutions to hedge specific assets or positions in their portfolios.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Equity Swap'
Most equity swaps today are conducted between large financing firms such as auto financiers, investment banks and capital lending institutions. LIBOR rates are a common benchmark for the fixed income portion of equity swaps, which also tend to be held at intervals of one year or less, much like commercial paper.

Lancaster University Ornithologist Honoured
Story supplied by LU Press Office
A Lancaster University scientist has been awarded one of the British Trust for Ornithology's top awards at the Mall Galleries, London.
At a ceremony hosted by the Society for Wildlife Artists (SWLA), Dr Ian Hartley was presented with the Marsh Award for Ornithology by the Chair of the BTO, Professor Ian Newton, for the significant contribution Ian has made to British ornithology.
With over forty scientific papers to his name, Ian's work has focussed on understanding the interactions between individuals within bird families. This has involved studies of sexual conflict, offspring begging behaviour, and parent-offspring conflict in a range of species, including Corn Buntings, Alpine Accentors, Blue Tits and Swallows.
In addition, Ian serves on several national committees including the councils of the BTO and the British Ornithologists' Union, and is involved with the running or editing of several academic journals. He is currently a Senior Lecturer at Lancaster University, where he carries out his research and teaches animal behaviour and evolution to undergraduate and postgraduate students.
Presenting the award, Professor Ian Newton, said: "Ian has made not only an outstanding scientific contribution, but has been a strong supporter and collaborator of the BTO. He has done much to help and train young researchers, and has contributed in many other ways to the greater good of ornithology, he is a very fitting recipient of this award and I am delighted to present Ian with it."
Dr Ian Hartley said: "This is a big honour for me. By enabling me to contribute to national surveys, such as atlas work and bird ringing, the BTO gave a purpose to my early birdwatching and helped to start my career in ornithology. Thank you for the award and for giving me that start."

- AboutJenny Floravita was born to be an artist. She began her studies in painting, drawing, music and dance as a small child, excelling in all. Her life in the San Francisco Bay Area afforded her great exposure to the arts. Jenny won numerous awards as a young artist including four California Governor's Medallions and four California State Seals, two each for art and dance. After receiving several scholarships, Jenny went on to study and receive her formal art degree through University of California, Santa Cruz. She lived and worked in Santa Cruz as a graphic designer and fine art painter for several years before re-locating to her family's home town in the Delta. Since 2000, Jenny Floravita's fine art career has blossomed. She has exhibited in numerous galleries and high-end art festivals. She paints island scenes and tropical flowers in both oil and watercolor. Jenny's journey in reverse glass painting began in the early summer of 2007 and since then she has added her beautiful custom glass painted chandeliers to her line of oil and watercolor paintings.

pre-released new Jenny Floravita reverse hand painted glass chandeliers
Darell, these below pieces are quickly taken images of new reverse hand painted glass chandeliers. They are all beautiful in person, hanging in their fixtures and all should be ready to travel in another week along with the other pieces that I'm going to send you links to via email.
To my blog followers: these new painted chandeliers will likely go to one or two of my galleries so if you are interested in any of these specific works, please contact me and I'll put you in contact with the gallery staff. They are all unique and original.
This is a different view of the same chandelier above.
The reverse painted chandelier bowl below is a romantic flower piece that has wisteria and roses, peonies…very stunning in person, very soft and lushly painted, very elaborate in overlapping. I just love all the sides, so I'm showing you 4 images…
Below is another abstract…
Below is a "window" abstract and floral—these are a favorite for me to paint… It has desert flowers alternating with color sections that have abstractions.
new Abstract reverse hand painted glass chandelier by Jenny Floravita
Circles of Summer is a stunning new 24″ abstract reverse hand painted glass chandelier. Vibrant shades reds, violets, yellows and soft pinks make this painted chandelier uplifting. It has beautiful colors and is lavishly painted. This is an original reverse hand painted chandelier.
The opposite side has cool aqua and violet hues and is accented by lime greens, yellows and soft pink magenta colors. My Circles Series represent cycles of life. Everyone has their own unique path yet we all travel closely. When I paint, I try to feel the composition. Sometimes I go into the process of creating one of my abstract painted chandeliers with specific colors or an idea that I want to convey. Other times I try to simply create and I let my intuition as an artist speak through my brush.
Nautilus symbols frequent my designs. They are found in fossils in the desert areas that inspire my desert hued reverse painted chandeliers. What was once water is now desert until the land sinks beneath an ocean once more and that is another cycle of life. The sun gives energy and warmth and is critical to our lives. Sun symbols are often found in my abstract works. The aqua areas often represent bodies of water.
My Contemporary Swirl forged fixture style was designed specifically for my abstract reverse hand painted glass chandeliers. I had chosen to photograph this piece in my Standard hand forged fixture because my abstracts look good in all of my fixtures.
new release: Flowers of the Coast is a reverse hand painted glass chandelier
Flower of the Coast is a new reverse hand painted glass chandelier. It is 24″ in glass diameter and it is photographed here in my hand forged fixture, Contemporary Swirl…though my floral chandelier would definitely lend themselves naturally to my more scrolled and more formal chandelier fixture styles. Most of my clients who choose my Contemporary Swirl fixture style do so because they have very contemporary surroundings.
Prior to moving to the Delta which flows into the San Francisco Bay I lived in Santa Cruz and Aptos—both two colast town here in California that will always have a part of my heart. One of the things that I liked to do best and found very soothing to my mind was to walk the many villages and beaches. Sunflowers, chrysanthemums, roses are very popular as are ferns and other wildflowers that will grow in such a temperate climate. These walks were very meditative and allowed me to fully enjoy life and the outdoors. I learned to greatly appreciate the blessings that have been bestowed upon my life in general and as an artist.
Artists need to gather inspiration for their work and the coast and it's flowers and essence have always been my primary inspiration. It makes sense, as I was born in the San Francisco Bay Area. Everyone has a place that they gravitate towards. As I began to travel I discovered that visiting islands and other coastal communities fill me with continued inspiration for both my oil and watercolor paintings and my reverse hand painted glass chandeliers.
It's a true blessing to be able to live life and work as an artist. There are only a few days each year where I do not have the desire to create…and on those days, I rest. For a few other days, I travel to my galleries or I travel with my husband to our getaway in Hawaii. The longer that I live as an artist, the bigger my body of work. If I could give everyone a sense of what it feels like to live a dream (that I work so hard for) and feel the same blessings, I would.
That said, it's Saturday and I need to begin my studio work for the day…to see what my brushes create.
The process of letting a work of art go and how Jenny Floravita does that with her reverse hand painted glass chandeleirs
The process of letting a work of art go—be it one of my reverse hand painted glass chandeliers or be it an oil or watercolor painting of a tropical flower or a Hawaiian beach is challenging. It is challenging for me because I invest so much of my life's energy into each work. When I was young, just out of college with my bachelors in Art from University of California, Santa Cruz, it was in my mind that I could paint two versions of the same painting. One I would sell and the other I would keep. Working with an art coach who specialized in professional aspects around an artist's career helped me break that cycle in my mind.
This may seem like a very odd problem but we all know that all people have their quirks. And when you consider what an artist puts into their work in terms of time and thought, it's actually quite easy to understand. Over the course of my career I have now sold a few hundred paintings—I have lost track and have no desire to count anymore. I simply create. Becoming a prolific artist was necessary in order to make a living. I had to learn to create a lot of oil and watercolor paintings in the years that I sold them through fine art festivals here in California. That is how artists live—it is very expensive to be in business as an artist, to buy materials and to take your work to market bet it galleries or festivals. Travel is still a huge expense for me. I'd like to point out that it's far more expensive to create chandeliers than it ever was to create and sell 'wall art'.
To get back to my point, becoming prolific helped me to slowly let go of my fears of knowing that I'll never see that precious original again. There was a very specific point in time where I had created an over-sized watercolor for a client in Walnut Creek, California in which I can point to having broken that fear. I delivered the painting and realize that I was able to walk away and not look back. I loved that painting. Just recently I came across it in photos from the early part of my career in the early 2000s. It was a surprisingly good painting and I remember the entire process like it was yesterday.
The picture here is one of three tropical flower and parrot themed revers hand painted glass chandeliers that were created for one client. This is my favorite of the three. I took a lot of photos of this piece in order to preserve the memory. When my painted glass chandeliers leave my studio, the go to be packed and then travel on their way to their new home. As an artist, I know that I'll never see these pieces again so I send them with 'light' and prosperity. I hope that my clients will receive the same joy from their reverse hand painted glass chandeliers as I did in creating them. That said, I now need to go up to my studio to move a large tropical flower oil painting towards completion…and yes, I'll be photographing this time-consuming labor of love before it travels to Oregon!
Cool Aqua Colored reverse hand painted chandelier by Jenny Floravita
Evening Oasis is one of my abstract reverse hand painted chandeliers. It's different because of the vast areas that have cool aqua colors. It's a gorgeous piece and yet very different from so many of my abstract themed painted glass chandeliers.
Personally, my home has a lot of aqua colors. I'm always accenting with watery blues—ocean colors whereas my mother always chooses hot fiesta and fall colors, a color palate that has been all the rage for a few years as it is energizing and cheerful.
What I like about blues and water colors are their soothing effect. Most of the rest of my color palate in this piece contains cooler versions of hues. Magenta colors are cool as are the violets that I am using.
Green is also a soothing, calming color. Evening Oasis does have a section with those hot fiesta yellows and oranges but it is less pronounced in this particular piece.
All of my reverse hand painted chandeliers are painted by me, Jenny Floravita, and are originals. A lot of time and thought goes into the painting process. My form of reverse glass painting requires the ability to both plan and yet be very spontaneous. It is like being fluid in a language. People have often asked me how I was introduced to this art form: and it was through an interior designer many years ago. Since then my style has blossomed. I also cannot emphasize enough that my fixtures are my hand forged designs and my glass bowls are fired and created here, my my studio—these are not big box lighting fixtures that I'm simply painting with. A lot of work goes into each of my reverse hand painted chandeliers before my brush ever hits the glass. At this point, a lot of years have also gone into the way in which I now create my work. Art is an evolution.
Jenny Floravita at La Quinta Arts Festival, March 7, 8, 9, 10
Next week I will be exhibiting at the La Quinta Arts Festival with my reverse painted chandeliers. Here are the details:
La Quinta Arts Festival
March 7th— 10th • 10am—5pm
Booth # 319, La Quinta's Civic Center Campus (78495 Calle Tampico La Quinta CA).
Though I have exhibited in fine art festivals for the past decade and used to carry an exhibition schedule of 15+ shows per year when I was exhibiting more of my tropical oil and watercolor (wall) paintings, this will be one of the only shows for 2013. As you can all imagine, showing chandeliers outside is a challenge so these days I'm doing few festivals. This show will have some of the top artists in the country. It is not a craft show, this is a fine art show. I will have my gorgeous reverse painted glass night lights there as well as samples of my art form—they make great gifts!
If you are in the Palm Springs area or Southern California—most cities are within a two hour drive—it's well worth the effort to come over to this show. You will see artists who do not participate in the local shows. Do bring an umbrella, we could have some slight showers here and there, possibly on Friday. If you have favorite artists at this show, it's actually best to come on Thursday so that you can have first picks!
And to all from out of town, safe travels!!!
My art form is a very old and rare art form, yes I do know this
Yes, my art form has it's roots in a very old art form and yes, it is rare—these are realizations that are not groundbreaking to me. There is a lot of blood, sweat and tears behind my work, especially in the earlier years. It is a very challenging calling to choose to pursue the life of a professional artist, let alone choose an art form that has a lot of industrial elements included. Today I am very successful but I think many people would be surprised to realize my climb in the art world has be very long coming and it has been filled with many years where I did well enough to support my budding (expensive) business but not well enough to thrive. So my success is very well earned.
I have spent my youth on my craft. I went directly to college to pursue an art degree at age 17. I was already accomplished as an artist by age 15/16—having been awarded 4 California State Seals and 4 Governor's Medallions by the age of 17. These were (and might still be) the highest honors that can be bestowed upon a high school student in the arts in California. In college, I completed my undergraduate courses and unrelated major courses by the end of my freshman year—by spring quarter I was taking the upper division courses. Where many waited until their senior year to take advanced drawing, I did it as a freshman and in fact took a year's worth. By the time I was a junior I had done so many upper division classes that it was time to try the graduate program of Science Illustration—where I took classes for a year, maybe completing 2/3 of the classes that the real graduate students took to complete their degrees.
Well, those years were long ago now, and I do consider myself still young…but they are the backbone of who I have become today. My middle years through college and right after were also spent working as a graphic designer—a skill set that I use almost every day as I am my own marketing machine. It took a lot of work to get to the point where I was able to walk away from the securities of graphic design to launch and feed my budding fine art career. And yes, I sacrificed not having a family early—that is another big distinction in me and it was a sacrifice.
So I write this open letter to all the artists who look at me and wonder how I arrived at where I am today. I am flattered when artists contact me but I am also very busy and my time resources are scarce as are my emotional energies (and of all people, I do love speaking with artists). My work in creating and showing my chandeliers is very demanding. This is a most rewarding life that I have and I wouldn't trade it but it has demanded sacrifices thus the literal blood, sweat and yes, many tears through the years. Heck, I could have a lot of those elements between now and the end of next week, depending on the wind conditions at La Quinta, if I hurt myself setting up my massive booth, knocking myself out getting in and out of my trailer (and I've fallen out, too), the dozen dolly loads of display equipment and weights, steaks, rebar for wind.
To artists and with much kindness and Aloha (as I know others would not be so kind): please understand that my work is my livelihood and this is true for any working professional artist who has a unique and innovative art form. Because my work is special and because it has a part of my soul it's like giving a part of myself with each chandelier and I do think most people require a part of the artist to invest in their work, I do understand this and give as much as I possibly can. Good thing we are creative people with abundance of soul!!! For now, I feel the need to hold my work's creative soul and energies close. I think having expressed my life's journey in this light, it will be easier to accept.
Reverse painted chandelier with greens and earth tones
Woodsy Green is a new reverse painted chandelier with green and earth tone colors. It's a very lavishly layered painting that features grasses and ferns and palm fronds and a warm gold colored bottom. The flowers that are interspersed with the greens are accent colors. White daisies, columbine flowers, Texas blue bells, sage, Indian paint brushes and sunflowers are just a few of the featured wildflowers.
I love creating hand painted chandeliers with this general theme—it's a chandelier concept that I can paint endlessly. All of my reverse painted chandeliers are originals. It's a very enjoyable subject matter for me to paint. There is another take on my 'green' theme on my website that features lush exotic, tropical green leaves and tropical flowers in pink and white hues. It is called Lush Waters and I may elaborate a bit more on that piece next. It is also a brand new chandelier.
This reverse painted chandelier is crafted here in my studio. The glass is formed and cold worked here and my fixtures are hand forged and welded—these are not Home Deopt type fixtures, they are entirely hand crafted and my glass bowls are much stronger and thicker than what you see in the glass bowl fixtures big box stores, it's a huge difference in terms of quality. And my work is about quality, attention to detail and artistry.
The forged fixture style that you see here is called 'Standard' and is about 20″ tall plus the length of the chain. My 'Ornate' fixture has more curves and is 29″ tall and goes well over dining tables and in rooms that have a more formal touch. My 'Contemporary Swirl' is 23″ in height and features my infinity/vortex swirl and straight arms—is simple yet contemporary, thus the name. All of my reverse painted chandeliers come with however much chain you need and if you need a really long drop, I will custom wire a fixture to your specifications. Also included is the ceiling canopy and the lights—so my reverse painted chandeliers arrive installation ready.

Halden Reactor
The Halden Reactor[1] is a 25MW nuclear reactor located in Halden, Norway and dedicated for research. The reactor became operative in 1958, and is operated by the Institute for Energy Technology. The reactor is a Boiling water reactor (BWR) moderated by heavy water.[2] The reactor is used for safety-focussed research into materials, fuel burnup, and fuel behaviour in prolonged operating conditions in co-operation with organizations from 19 countries.[3] - Its current operating license expires at the end of 2014.[4] Authorities are considering whether to extend the operating license beyond 2014. In May 2014, the Norwegian Radiological Protection Authority recommended a ten-year license extension.[5]
Report to police by Norway's foreign ministry[edit]
A 12 May 2013 article in O Estado de S. Paulo broke the story about fuel testing done at the reactor in regards to the nuclear submarine program of Brazil.[6] The testing did not have the proper authorization from Norway's government.[6] Brazil is not a participant in the joint 2012-4 research programme.[3]
On 4 September 2013, Norwegian media wrote that the institute "is admitting to illegal cooperation with companies in four more countries:"[7] Russia, Argentina, France and the United States. Later, Norway's foreign ministry filed a complaint with PST.[7] triggering an investigation that is on-going.

I never think about this sort of thing. I'll ask my ipod.
My ipod says my most played song is Rabbit Heart by Florence and The Machine. That's a pretty good song. After that it's Heal from the Ico soundtrack. That's a good one too. I wouldn't call them my favorites though.
Its been Todd Terje Inspector Norse for the past year or so.
I have 4, tied for first, kind of depending on the mood. If push came to shove I would go with the first listed.
Cradle of filth - Cruelty Brought Thee Orchids
Cradle of Filth - Godspeed On The Devil's Thunder
Clutch - 10001110101
Primus - DMV
Man so many Clutch fans here, I saw them live once they were pretty good.
I'm gonna cop out and throw a few out here, all very different.
This might be my favorite single piece of music. So much hope, beauty. I could listen to this song many times a day for the rest of my life.
I'm moved nearly every time I hear this song. Aside from the personal attachment I feel to the sentiment and the words, the way this piece moves imbues my cold heart with white, hot life.
For the metal side of me (a big side), it was between this and about a half dozen Machine Head songs (Halo, their Hallowed Be Thy Name cover, Clenching the Fists of Dissent, Imperium, The Burning Red, Darkness Within, Be Still and Know, others). But this is probably the most complete and all-encompassing song that I'm aware of.

Great choices. I bounce back and forth between For Whom the Bell Tolls and Fade to Black as my favorite song off Ride the Lightning (more often lean toward Fade to Black, likely my favorite Metallica song too).

Is it weird to say I don't have favorite songs, but just favorite albums with songs I prefer off of them?
Like for sure these:
Abbey Road by the Beatles, with The End being my favorite off of it.
Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) by the Wu-Tang Clan, favorite cut being Bring da Ruckus
Paul's Boutique by the Beastie Boys, favorite song being Car Thief
Also, I'm currently pretty in love with Chance the Rapper's Acid Rap mixtape

Favourite song of all time is currently a tie between Hotel California (lol, I know) - The original as well as the acoustic 'Hell Freezes Over' version, and Dream Theater's Learning To Live.
Favourite song right now?
I've recently gotten into The Smiths, thanks to the boyfriend, who comes from Manchester. So of course he would love The Smiths.

Led zeppelin - rain song
Metallica - anything from Master of Puppets
Megadeth - Tornado of souls
Hmm. That's a tough one! I'll have to go with Elliott Smith - Between the Bars. This song means the world to me, but I don't think I'll ever be able to fully explain why. It doesn't make me happy, nor does it make me sad, it just puts me in my own little world.

Nas- The Message
Eminem- Stay Wide Awake
Killswitch Engage- Numbered Days
Probably three of my favorite songs ever, it's mad hard to pick my favorite song of all time though.

Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Parts I-V
Really, the answer is the entirety of "Wish You Were Here," but that's just cheating. Special mentions go out to Ghostface's Nutmeg and Why? Rubber Traits.

"Zero" or "Aijin 28" by the Sex Machineguns. Followed closely by Iron Maiden's "The Trooper."

I find this song kind of hard to listen to sometimes, cause it cuts real deep.

I don't think I could narrow it down to just one...
Some favorites though -
- Where the Streets Have No Name - U2
- Save Tonight - Eagle Eye Cherry
- Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen
- You Get What You Give - New Radicals
- Whoomp There It Is! - Tag Team
I'm not saying these are necessarily good songs in an artistic way, but I "jam" out to them every time I hear them.

Man, this is hard. After thinking a bit, I really can't say anything bad about Mr. Heavenly. The song just flows in such an interesting way and has a great chorus.
Another related song is Piranhas Club by Man Man. It's just groovy, and the lyrics and really contrasted against the surf-guitar and poppy sounds.
