Contact (Freda Payne Album)
''Contact'' is Freda Payne's fourth American released album and her second for Invictus Records.

The album begins with a dramatic 11-minute medley of "I'm Not Getting Any Better" and "Suddenly It's Yesterday," both of which were written by Brian Holland and Lamont Dozier. Some people thought that Holland and Dozier were trying to compete with Diana Ross's hit "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" as both songs contain spoken segments and dramatic musical arrangements. The only cover song is "He's in My Life", which was an album track by The Glass House featuring Freda's sister Scherrie Payne. It was written by Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier and Eddie Holland (under their common pseudonym "Edythe Wayne" to avoid copyright claims by their former employer Motown), jointly with Ron Dunbar.

Botticelli (game)
Botticelli is a guessing game where one person or team thinks of a famous person and reveals the initial letter of their name, and then answers yes/no questions to allow other players to guess the identity. It requires the players to have a good knowledge of biographical details of famous people. The game takes its name from the principle that the famous person must be at least as famous as Sandro Botticelli. How to play One player (the chooser) is selected to think of a famous person (the identity). This person should be someone the chooser is comfortable answering biographical questions about, and someone the chooser is very confident that the other players will all have heard of; obscure identities make for frustrating game play, especially with young players. The rule of thumb is that the person should be at least as famous or well known as Sandro Botticelli, hence the name of the game. Fictional characters are acceptable, but can present certain difficulties. In some context ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

When they arrived, they located a group of 20 Martu women and children in the area.

Despite the presence of the Martu people in the area, a missile was still fired from Woomera, but it went far off course, landing hundreds of miles away from the lakes. After several months, a second missile was scheduled to be deployed and Wa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
