Trivia of Danny Kaye (18 January 1911 – 3 March 1987) *Kaye's first break came in 1933 when he joined the Three Terpsichoreans, a vaudeville dance act. They opened in Utica, New York, where he used the stage name Danny Kaye for the first time. The act toured the United States and in Asia with the show La Vie Paree. The troupe left for a six-month tour of Asia on 1934. During its stay in Osaka, Japan, a typhoon hit the city. The troupe's hotel suffered heavy damage. The strong wind hurled a piece of the hotel's cornice into Kaye's room. By evening's performance time, the city was in the grip of the storm. With no power, the audience became restless and nervous. To calm them, Kaye went on stage holding a flashlight to illuminate his face and sang every song he could recall as loudly as he was able.The experience of trying to entertain audiences who did not speak English inspired him to do the pantomime gestures, songs, and facial expressions that eventually made his r...

Napoleon, one of the best military commanders who ever lived, had a vivacious sex life. Rising from obscure Corsican nobility during the tumultuous period of the French Revolution, his intelligence, military successes, and charisma made Napoleon a French Emperor. But it wasn’t only his public life that was illustrious, it was also his sEx life that was filled with spicy details. As his fame grew, his sExual innocence was disappearing. As a teenager, he ate cherries with his love interest, and as a general and emperor, he had raunchy affairs with Europe's most beautiful women. But it was his saucy first wife Josephine, who taught him his lovemaking skills. While twice married Napoleon is most typically known as a conqueror of armies, he also enjoyed conquests of numerous women. Although Napoleon claimed he had only 7 mistresses, he probably had at least 21. One of Napoleon’s mistresses was a famous French actress who had sEx also with his arch-enemy, Duke Wellington. She naughtly...

KAART 1: HET ANKER Met stabiliteit en zekerheid zorg ik voor gemoedsrust. Ik moedig je aan door te zetten en help je je doel te ontdekken. Kijk uit voor negatieve kaarten, ze kunnen je ketenen en naar beneden trekken. In de originele spelregels voor de kaarten die later de Lenormandkaarten zouden worden, was dit de belangrijkste van het hele spel want 'degene die op deze afbeelding van hoop komt te staan, wint het spel én de pot'. Het Anker is het traditionele symbool voor hoop (of vertrouwen) en komt voor de dood - het Kruis (36). Het Anker biedt stabiliteit en zekerheid; vertrouwen dat je harde werken uiteindelijk beloond zal worden. Het Anker van de Lenormand van de Vergulde Visioenen is versierd met twee vissen die overvloed en rijkdom betekenen in Lenormand; dit is een kaart die vertrouwen geeft. Je wordt beschermd in moeilijke tijden. KAART 2: DE HOND Ik sta voor trouw en vriendschap. Ik ben bescherming, vertrouwen, steun en zekerheid. Let goed op als er negatieve kaarten...

  Burton Stephen "Burt" Lancaster (November 2, 1913 – October 20, 1994) After initially building his career on "tough guy" roles Lancaster abandoned his "all-American" image in the late 1950s in favor of more complex and challenging roles, and came to be regarded as one of the best motion picture actors of his generation. Lancaster was nominated four times for Academy Awards and won once for his work in Elmer Gantry in 1960. He also won a Golden Globe for that performance and BAFTA Awards for The Birdman of Alcatraz (1962) and Atlantic City (1980).

During the latter part of his career, Lancaster left adventure and acrobatic films behind and portrayed more distinguished characters. Lancaster soug...

Coffee, Madam? Apparently, coffee is very good for writers. It provides cognitive enhancement, meaning that it aids in processing ideas a little faster. And here I thought all those writers sitting in coffee shops were like me, just escaping my own four walls. Like T. S. Eliot 's Prufrock, I have measured out my life with coffee spoons. Coffee’s appearances in fiction are too many to catalogue. The way a character prepares or drinks coffee can show a lot about them, or it can simply be the backdrop for a conversation. But though its appearances are legion, works in which coffee plays a central role are few. Agatha Christie 's Black Coffee teases with its title, but the bitter drink turns out simply to be the vehicle for the poisoning Hercule Poirot must exercise his little grey cells to solve. I have, though, enjoyed a couple of titles that I thought I might pass on. And I’d appreciate your recommendations... The Coffee Trader by David Liss I preferred this American writer’s ...
