MUSIC HORROR STORIES
A Collection of Gruesome True Tales
as Told by Actual Innocent Victims Seeking a Career in the Music Business
They prowl the shadows seeking the unwary; they are bloodsuckers, human leeches, foul creatures who feast upon human flesh and suck out the souls hidden within.
Welcome to the music business.
For every ersatz cowboy, cloned boy band and millionaire diva in rehab, there’s another thousand who remain unheard. Right now they’re circling the crossroads, trapped with evil-smelling bands in smoky, decrepit vans, praying for the gilded gig to take them one step closer to platinum-land. Now, for the first time ever, Music Horror Stories… presents these music industry hopefuls as they confide their lurid, unabridged tales of the black holes they’ve encountered on the road to success.
Goodnight Kiss is a Hollywood-based music publishing firm notable for its unequivocal support of songwriters, artists and musicians. When the company’s founder, Janet Fisher, first shared her own story (“Me “n’ Motown”) in her firm’s far-reaching newsletter, others came forth with their similar stories. And in an old musical tradition — like a host of demented guitarists trying to best one another in a dizzying battle of choruses — and, “Oh yeah, I can top that” attitude turned up the volume. Before long, fifty-four other stories had bonded with Fisher’s tale, ultimately unfolding into a book of mind-bending proportions.
To be sure, there is plenty of mind expansion in this volume; it’s covered by the stories selected for the chapter titled “Intoxicating Rhythms.” There are also sections dubbed “Choruses of Fear,” The Road Goes On Forever, “Short Takes,” “Songs in the Key of Screwed,” and the beautifully self-explanatory, “Bookings in Hades.”
Creating a career in the music business can be an uphill battle, but it makes for some damn entertaining reading. So whether you yourself are a musician, or if you like music, or God help you — if your daughter or son has a fresh tattoo, purple hair and an unlikely piercing and is begging you for a guitar — then you must experience Music Horror Stories… and remember: if the music is loud enough, no one will ever know if you’re laughing or screaming.

Who wants to be a millionaire? Duane Cash popular oil painting “DAWN OF LIGHT” auctions on eBay during art collector frenzy from Cash Art Studio
(PRWEB) March 21, 2004 ” Dawn of Light “
Anyone want to be a millionaire? This is what some frenzied collectors are saying about the art of Duane Cash, whose works have been reported in online art news outlet as gaining popularity.
After a recent surge in popularity and increasing gallery values, Duane Cash releases his surreal oil painting “Dawn of Light” to auction. The painting offers a unique subtle luminosity not seen in years.
Collectors have begun their scramble own a piece of the Duane Cash Art Collection. Recently traffic to the website has tripled and requests for art commissions, logo orders, and Rubik’s puzzle emails have been coming in at a rapid pace.
Duane Cash, a native New Mexican artist, now living again in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has brought to life such innovations as the Duane Cash Cube Collection, a set of 6 puzzle inventions inluding the Rubik’s Triamese Cube and Rubik’s Fusion+ Cube, as well as his “Friend’s and Family” and “Mystical” series landscape tree paintings displaying a raw earthy background and sky and vibrantly color red and orange “glowing” trees.
One such painting, entitled “Trees of Truth” remains in the Cash Art Studio ebay store as quite a bargain at $ 2,795.00 considering it has a gallery value of $ 4,500.00 – $ 5,000.00. (Note: a direct link to this auction is listed below).
The flood of orders has been intense, and ebay search engines have seen an increaase in the amount of searches done on “Duane Cash Art” as well as “Phet Cash Art” over the last week.
“I find the whole phenomenon of his (Duane Cash’s) work fascinating, and I would love to help in keeping his art alive,” says one local collector. “I think we would be losing a great artist, if he returned to working a different job. What if Van Gogh or Monet decided not to paint anymore because of another job? What masterpieces would we have missed out on?”
Duane Cash’s paintings have also been described at “striking” and “incredible” by some art enthusiasts.
Duane Cash, also had an article released recently in the April 2004 issue of “GAMES” Magazine featuring his puzzle inventions in the Duane Cash Cube Collection. Timing did not give any favors for this article because of some website restructuring taking place at the same time on the online Rubikshop.
Duane and Phet Cash have become America’s Living Artist Couple in a short period of time through their website and through auction venues such as ebay.

Why Do People Procrastinate?
(PRWEB) October 10, 2004 New contest seeks to discover Top 10 reasons people procrastinate
People mean well; they really do. But one of the main obstacles to progress at home, school, or work is procrastination. Even when you fully intend to follow through, 7 times out of 10 you donÂt. Why is that? Nancy Boyd, founder of The DayToppers Program and a graduate of Coach U, is sponsoring a contest during the month of October, 2004, to discover the Top Ten Ways that people procrastinate — and why.
“There is so much shame and guilt over not getting things done, says Boyd. ÂIn our program, we see people who have had plans for years to do something important, but their pattern has been to put off doing it. The DayToppers Program helps you overcome that.” Boyd adds, “ItÂs so sad that people donÂt know there are better ways to cope, because they miss out on all the great results they could be getting.Â
To enter the contest, go to this web page and follow the simple instructions: http://daytoppers.com/landing/index.asp?pageid=16
The contest ends on October 30, 2004. Winners will be announced on November 1, 2004 by email, on the web site and in media releases. Winners will be randomly selected. First prize winner will have first choice of prizes, and so on until all the winners and prizes have been matched.

The DayToppers Program is a new service created just for busy, active people who have important things to accomplish, and little time in which to do it. DayToppers helps people focus on a priority task or project, using a coach and a small group to support daily action steps. “In only 15 minutes a day, you can get very clear about what is the next thing you must do. You may only have a short amount of time, but the time you DO have can be very effective,” says Boyd, a graduate of CoachU and founding member of the Graduate School of Coaching.
“Instead of trying to do too much at once, why not eliminate some of the stress by getting clear focus on your most important project, and giving it the attention it deserves? That is one of the fastest strategies to success, we’ve discovered,” says Boyd. ” One of the reasons the program worked so well for me is that I hated to appear a failure in front of others. The daily check-in kept the meter ticking and momentum going. If you tend to procrastinate, this is the program for you, says Marion Ryan, a satisfied DayToppers client.

Following in the Footsteps of Madame CJ Walker, Warm Spirit Pours $ 6.5 Million Back into African American Communities
Exeter, NH (PRWEB) January 13, 2005 Nadine Thompson is not only the President, CEO and Co-Founder of Warm Spirit, she is the visionary and leader of a community of over 10,000 women and men who are empowered entrepreneurs and change agents. Warm Spirit is transforming the face of the direct sales and network marketing industry by providing an opportunity for wealth and financial freedom that has not always been accessible for women and even less so for African-American women.
ItÂs been almost 100 years since Sarah Breedlove, better known as Madame CJ Walker started her hair care products company to become this countryÂs first self-made Black female millionaire  and she did it by pioneering what is now recognized as network marketing. In less than 15 years, Madame CJ Walker built an empire of nearly 20,000 black women called ÂWalker AgentsÂ, the Walker Manufacturing Co. and the Walker College of Hair Culture.
Only 6 years ago, in 1999, Thompson founded Warm Spirit with her friend and entrepreneur Daniel Wolf, excited about the possibilities of a business venture that incorporated her belief in enlightening and empowering women. Not only does Warm Spirit provide access to entrepreneurial opportunities and high quality natural products, most importantly, it creates wealth for the consultants and their communities. Warm SpiritÂs unique marketing plan is an empowering entrepreneurial opportunity that helps create wealth. Approximately 50 cents from each dollar that is sold is returned back into the pockets of the consultants, therefore wealth and profits are recycled directly back into their communities.
In 2004, Warm Spirit paid out close to $ 4 million in commission checks and our top 20 consultants had annual incomes between $ 11,000 and $ 150,000 through our compensation plan. Warm Spirit has been extremely successful in creating wealth through its empowering compensation plan. In 1999 they paid out $ 12,000; in 2000, $ 74,000; in 2001, $ 172,000; in 2002, $ 832,000 and in 2003, $ 2.2 million. To date, Warm Spirit has paid out $ 6.5 million in commission checks to its consultants!
Warm Spirit consultants start their own business for $ 99.95 with a supportive network and a product people love and want more of the first time they try it. Unlike any other black entrepreneur Nadine Thompson is creating wealth in our communities and providing opportunities for people to live to their potential.
Thompson is also a wife and mother of two children, Camilla (11) and Isaiah (8). She lives in Exeter, NH at Phillips Exeter Academy with her husband Rev. Robert H. Thompson.
Warm Spirit can be found through a nearby consultant, at http://www.warmspirit.com or by calling 1-888-296-9854. For more information about Warm Spirit, interviews, prices or products, contact Keesha Abraham at 603-772-7508 or 1-888-388-9276 or keesha@warmspirit.com.

MO Girls USA, Inc. Releases their Sexy New, Star Studded, 1950’s Inspired Calendar & DVD, “Home Economics -101,” with Three Calendar Signing Parties in Atlanta, Los Angeles and Miami
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) January 10, 2007 MO Girls USA, Inc. releases their sexy new, star studded, 1950’s inspired Calendar & DVD, “HOME ECONOMICS – 101,” with three calendar signing parties in Atlanta, Los Angeles and Miami.
Time to receive a lesson from the MO Girls in homemaking… It’s “Home Economics -101,” the MO Girls’ 2007 Glamour Calendar and ‘Making Of.. DVD’ filled with sexy ethnic models demonstrating their favorite house chores in a seductive way. From learning about Dishwashing, Bed-Making, Ironing, Floor Scrubbing, Window Cleaning, Gardening, Laundry, Grocery Shopping, Sweeping, Dusting, Baking, to Sewing, this is what we call ’stimulating educational material.’
The “Home Economics – 101″ Glamour Calendar and DVD is the 6th in a series of MO Girl’s calendars and 4th in their catalog of “Making Of.. DVDs’. The “Home Economics” theme idea came from the creative mind of MO Girls’ CEO/Founder/Director, Marques “MO” Owens. Although Mr. Owens materialized the vision, he gives partial credit to MO Girls’ own, Dayana Jamine for suggesting that the company do a sexy glamorized calendar on domestic women. From there, the complete idea manifested. MO was familiar with this topic, as his mother was a former homemaking teacher. Much to his mother’s dismay, Owens decided to title the calendar “Home Economics-101.” However, once the project was done she reluctantly agreed that he had captured the essence of the 1950’s era as well as the homemaking concept. She went on to say that the calendar cover resembled one of the old textbooks that she taught from.
This calendar features Shay “Buckeey” Johnson (VH1’s “Flavor Of Love 2,” King Magazine, Smooth Magazine), Cristal “Serious” Steverson (VH1’s “Flavor Of Love”), Nadia Dawn (King Magazine, “Supermodel Showdown”), Dayana Jamine (Joe Millionaire, King Magazine, BlackMen’s Magazine), Sharee English (Hip Hop Honeys, BlackMen’s Magazine), Nisa Ward (Snoop Dogg’s movie “Boss’n Up,” Smooth Magazine), Tiana & Tiera “The T&T Twins” (BlackMen Magazine), Yanjali Newby, Shellie Denise (Bow Wow’s videos “Let Me Hold You” & “Like You”), Jaime “Jai Lynn” Cloud (Smooth Magazine, BlackMen’s Magazine, Stuff Magazine), Mary Daniel, and Jordana Ingram.
The “Making Of.. DVD’ not only features behind the scenes footage of sexy photoshoots by the above models, but it also contains outrageous and sometimes racy, uncensored video footage of applicants who attended the MO Girls’ model calls. The disc is hosted by 2007 MO Girl Nadia Dawn and contains some very tasteful theatrical skits directed by none other than Marques “MO” Owens, the ‘MOgul’ himself.
To launch and celebrate the release of these two dynamically sexy products, MO Girls is holding three calendar signing parties in 3 cities (Atlanta, Georgia – Hollywood, California – Miami, Florida ) hosted by MO and the lovely 2007 “MO Girl” models. The dates and locations are as follows:

Since the age of 12, Ephren Taylor has been moved with an entrepreneurial spirit. Initially, Ephren started making videogames because his parents lacked the financial means to purchase them. By the age of 16, he was a millionaire. Bitten with the prosperity bug, Mr. Taylor formed and sold a technology company called GoFerretGo.com which specialized in providing high school students with employment opportunities further increasing his wealth and business experience.

Celebrities Feel the Pinch from Burglars
Cardiff, (PRWEB) July 24, 2008 Despite often having state-of-the-art security measures, the homes of reality TV stars, music biz personalities and football heroes are proving just too tempting a target for burglars. Celebs that have fallen prey to these most unwelcome of visitors include:
Jade Goody – the reality TV veteran has been targeted no fewer than three times by burglars. In the latest raid (May 2008), thieves made off with a reported £50,000 in jewellery. As all three burglaries took place at the same Essex address, the clear lesson is: buy a better burglar alarm!
Big Brother 2008 evictee Alex De Gale’s BMW was vandalised in her driveway as a result of her bullying ways on the show. So if you’re thinking of going on Big Brother, here’s a tip – get adequate car insurance and home insurance before going in!
Ex-Atomic Kitten and former Queen of the Jungle Kerry Katona had a terrifying time of it when armed robbers held a knife to her neck at her Cheshire home. The trio of masked men made off with goods worth £150,000, including a BMW M5.
Simon Cowell had his London Mansion ransacked for booty whilst he was off sorting the wheat from the chaff on American Idol. The millionaire talent spotter’s home was broken into whilst undergoing renovation – a vulnerable time that stresses the importance of notifying your home insurance company whenever building works are taking place onsite.
A burglar fled with £2m in jewellery from the Buckinghamshire mansion of Ozzy Osbourne – despite being tackled by the former wild man of rock. It’s a good thing for the thief that Ozzy wasn’t feeling peckish that night – after all, the one-time Black Sabbath frontman once bit the head of a bat.
John Taylor, 80s heartthrob bassist with Duran Duran, had his home broken into and items nicked included his personal safe. Police are looking for a well-built, middle-aged woman wearing a ra-ra skirt and a snood!
Other celebs to feel the pinch include Icelandic pixie-popstar Björk, who suffered a break-in at her Maida Vale apartment, and Liverpool lass Cilla Black – the Björk of her day – who had items valued at a £1m stolen from her Buckinghamshire home.
But it seems that footballers have the worst of it… particularly if you play for Liverpool.
Players burgled whilst plying their trade at Anfield include Daniel Agger, Peter Crouch (stolen items included an Aston Martin and £200,000 worth of bubbly), Dirk Kuyt, Stephen Gerrard, Pepe Reina (stolen items included a Porsche – later found burnt out) and Jerzy Dudek.
If you’re thinking ‘Everton fan’, spare a though for poor Andy van der Meyde. The Everton winger was burgled twice in 2006, with unscrupulous burglars (as opposed to the scrupulous kind) making off with a pedigree puppy. Happily, the Dutchman was later reunited with ‘Mac’ – a rare Dogue de Bordeaux.
Down south, Frank Lampard was asleep in bed when burglars broke into his Chelsea mansion. Thieves grabbed a pair of car keys and then made off with two of the England midfielder’s cars.
Simon Lamble, product director at Confused.com, said: “No matter who you are and how healthy your bank balance, thieves can find a way into your home if they have a mind to. Since robust security measures won’t always prevent a burglary, another way to protect your valuables is with adequate home insurance and car insurance.”
