    In 1971, Starbucks (then a mere fledging coffee shop on the Seattle waterfront) was looking for a logo, something that would embody the seafaring history of its home city. The three founders hired a consultant named Terry Heckler.[...] Heckler “pored over old marine books until he came up with a logo based on an old 16th-century Norse woodcut: a two-tailed mermaid.” The mermaid was exotic. She was also topless. At first, and despite some complaints, Starbucks just rolled with it. As Schultz later explained, “Bare breasted and Rubenesque, [the mermaid] was supposed to be as seductive as the coffee itself.” But then the time came to put the logo on the delivery trucks, and that was problematic. “The logo was huge,” Heckler’s website relates, “—and so were the mermaid’s breasts.” Starbucks solved the problem by restyling the mermaid’s hairdo so it draped over the trouble spots.

  • Known as the festival of colors, Holi is celebrated on the last full moon in the lunar month of Phalguna.
  • Holi marks the end of winter and honors the triumph of good over evil. 
  • Celebrants light bonfires, throw colorful powder called gulal, eat sweets, and dance to traditional folk music.
  • In strict orthodox Hindu communities, some widows are forced to move to holy cities and are shunned by family members. During Holi, the caste system becomes less rigid and "everyone partakes in the festivals," Shakula said.
  • A young man raises his hands in celebration at the Nandagram temple.
  • A woman shakes yellow gulal from her hair during celebrations in Mumbai. Traditionally, Holi was more popular in northern India than in the south, but today it is widely celebrated throughout the country.
  • A man in Allahabad lies on the ground smeared in pink gulal. The color represents springtime and flowers in bloom.
    • SONG MEANING (Hymn for the weekend): is about finding the ability to do awesome things together with someone whose impact in your life verges on the “angelic.”

In Spanish "viva" is an expression used to acclaim someone or something, so "Live the Life" is an accurate translation and the painting reflects the artist irony of acclaiming life while suffering physically. When asked about the album's title, referring to Frida Kahlo's strength, enduring polio, a broken spine, and a decade of chronic pain, Chris Martin said: "She went through a lot of pain, of course, and then she started a big painting in her house that said 'Viva la Vida', I just loved the boldness of it."]]> 2016-05-23 12:24:59 UTC https://padlet.com/sollucchesi/9btbb41nlcfp/wish/112111066 "Hymn for the weekend" - Coldplay sollucchesi https://padlet.com/sollucchesi/9btbb41nlcfp/wish/112113269 The song is slow, yet strong, and it features Beyonce’s beautiful voice. The song’s about as pop music-ish as Coldplay can get I think, and Chris Martin the lead singer, in an interview with the Wall Street Journal, backs me up on that:
    “The original kernel was that I was listening to Flo Rida or something, and I thought, it’s such a shame that Coldplay could never have one of those late-night club songs, like "Turn Down for What."

He was born on May 24, 1941, in Duluth, Minnesota. The legendary singer-songwriter has received Grammy, Academy and Golden Globe awards, as well as the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Nobel Prize for Literature.]]> 2016-10-23 20:53:59 UTC https://padlet.com/sollucchesi/9btbb41nlcfp/wish/132566655 The themes of his lyrics  sollucchesi https://padlet.com/sollucchesi/9btbb41nlcfp/wish/132568534 His profound metaphor had first illuminated the minds of fellow artists, before taking a huge leap to influence masses of young people
    in search of freedom and a better world. Dylan lyrically jumped back and forth between themes that haunted his young unveiled thoughts. Read on to discover what boggled Mr. Dylan’s mind way back before he went electric, even before he was labeled a protest singer.
    1) Traveling:  is no wonder many of his songs from Bob Dylan and The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan are about highways, making stops at unfamiliar towns, and the overall spontaneity of getting by, relying on one’s luck.
    2) Dreams and the supernatural: One of the themes that will stick to Dylan further down the road is the occasional dream or nightmare, as well as various supernatural situations that happen in real life. Dylan often uses these situations to depict a distressed or dreamlike reality.
    3) Death: Dylan sings of death and graveyards often, but he never misses to accompany them with a traditional song. It’s Dylan’s way to present the sorrow of the ages. Sometimes men of constant sorrow ask for death before their time, but sometimes death is unexpected and bizarre .
    4) Ignorance: when Dylan sings about people he means ignorant people, hostile people, people in numbers, people who march, people who kill, but mostly people who turn their head when reality faces them.

    You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you ?
    People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall."
    You thought they were all kiddin' you
    You used to laugh about
    Everybody that was hangin' out
    Now you don't talk so loud
    Now you don't seem so proud
    About having to be scrounging for your next meal.

    How does it feel?
    How does it feel
    To be without a home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone ?

    You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
    But you know you only used to get juiced in it
    And nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street
    And now you're gonna have to get used to it
    You said you'd never compromise
    With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
    He's not selling any alibis
    As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
    And say do you want to make a deal?

    How does it feel?
    How does it feel
    To be on your own
    With no direction home
    A complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone ?

    You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
    When they all come down and did tricks for you
    You never understood that it ain't no good
    You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
    You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
    Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
    Ain't it hard when you discover that
    He really wasn't where it's at
    After he took from you everything he could steal.

    How does it feel?
    How does it feel
    To be on your own
    With no direction home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone ?

    Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
    They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
    Exchanging all precious gifts
    But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
    You used to be so amused
    At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
    Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
    When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose
    You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

    How does it feel
    How does it feel
    To be on your own
    With no direction home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone ?
