She has composed over 115 works in virtually all forms, from a composition for solo instrument based on only one note to grand opera. In 1994 she was granted dual citizenship by the Austrian government -- permitted only in cases of exceptional artistic achievement -- because of her excellence as a composer and her musical contributions to the Republic of Austria.

Her English-language musical theater works, Cocaine Lil, after the anonymous American folk poem. and A Night in the Royal Ontario Museum, after the Margaret Atwood poem, have continued to see many performances in Europe and America. Cocaine Lil, is recorded on compact disc by "belcanto ensemble" of Germany on Koch-Schwann.

For many years, while actively composing, her musical activities included teaching at nine universities in the southern United States and Hawaii, performing as violist in symphony orchestras and as a solo and chamber pianist, and serving as activist president of two composers organizations -- most notably the International League of Women Composers, which she founded in 1975 and chaired for seven years. She has contributed articles to Musical America, The International Musician, The Instrumtalist, Symphony News, and numerous other professional periodicals in the United States, Austria, Indonesia, and other countries. She is often interviewed for radio broadcast and for music journal and newspaper articles.

Clarence is the only son of Linda Aaron. In the summer before his final year at Southern University, Clarence was approached by a childhood friend from Mobile who asked Clarence if he knew of anyone who could supply him with cocaine. Clarence knew of people who dealt drugs in Louisiana and helped his old friend by arranging a meeting with a drug dealer from Baton Rouge. Distrustful of each other, the two parties insisted Clarence be present during their meeting. Clarence foolishly agreed. Following that incident, Clarence returned for his fourth year of studies at Southern University. The next winter ...

100 Kilos (Part 7) Ricky Ross was born on May 3, 1960 in Troup, Texas. As a young child he moved to South-Central Los Angeles, California, with his mother. Originally interested in tennis, he pursued a scholarship while attending high school. His coach, Bob Strohosky, who also went into drug trafficking in his following days, would later find out he was illiterate and remove him from the school. Ross then attended Los Angeles Trade Technical College and again pursued tennis, reaching the 3rd spot on the team. To make money, he turned to selling drugs to pay for tennis lessons. However, an arrest led Ross to quit school.[5] [edit] Cocaine introduction It was through Jericho Deerr, a college friend, that Ross was introduced to cocaine. Through Deerr, Ross found a connection to purchase cheap Nicaraguan cocaine: two Nicaraguan exiles, Oscar Danilo Blandon and Norwin Meneses Cantarero. Ross began distributing the cocaine around US$10000 less per kilo than the average street price, his point of distribution being the Bloods and Crips street gangs. Eventually, Ross purchased his cocaine directly from Blandón and Meneses. By 1982, Ross had received his moniker of "Freeway Ricky," and is believed to have been selling over US$3 million in cocaine per day—and purchasing 440 kilos of cocaine a week.[5] In addition to cocaine, Ross was also able to purchase surveillance equipment, such as mini cameras and recording equipment. Some of the gang members that worked for him bought weapons ranging from uzi ...

My story is much to sad to be told But practically everything leaves me totally cold The only exception I know is the case When I'm out on a quiet spree, fighting vainly the old ennui Then I suddenly turn and see Your fabulous face Chorus: I get no kick from champagne Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all So tell me why should it be true That I get a kick out of you Some, they may go for Cocaine I'm sure that if I took even one sniff It would bore me terrifically too But I get a kick out of you ( Some like the bop-type refrain ) ( I'm sure that if, I heard even one riff ) ( It would bore me terrifically too ) ( But I get a kick out of you ) ( Some they may go for cocaine ) ( I'm sure that if, I took even one sniff ) ( It would bore me terrifically too ) ( But I get a kick out of you ) I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me I get a kick though it's clear to see, you obviously do not adore me I get no kick in a plane Flying too high with some gal in the sky Is my idea of nothing to do But I get a kick out of you
