Seela Misra
Seela Misra is a Canadian-born singer-songwriter residing in Austin, Texas. She was the lead singer of the jazz band TOrcH and is also the back-up singer for Matt the Electrician. Seela is known for an expressive vocal range, "one moment she rasps like a Jersey deli queen, the next she's cooing coquettishly."Raoul Hernandez" Seela, Something Happened,"''Austin Chronicle'' March 3, 2000. This is evident in her solo work and when delivering jazz standards with the Jazz Pharaohs or with TOrcH where she has been credited with "unswerving hipness" succeeding where others have failed "in melding her own style with those from the past." Seela's initial foray into recording, ''Probably Lucy'' (1994) conveyed "a spare sultriness," and was called "a languid acoustic romp through the varied terrain of the poetic heart," quickly selling out its first pressing.

Arctic Tale
''Arctic Tale'' is a 2007 American documentary film from the National Geographic Society about the life cycle of a walrus and her calf, and a polar bear and her cubs, in a similar vein to the 2005 hit production ''March of the Penguins'', also from National Geographic. It was directed by Adam Ravetch and Sarah Robertson and is narrated by Queen Latifah. The animal characters named in the movie, "Nanu" the female polar bear and "Seela" the female walrus, are based on composites of animals in their species, as noted at the end of the film.
