Simon Cowell gives opera singer Daniel Emmet an impossible challenge on ‘America’s Got Talent’

Classical crossover singer Daniel Emmet thought that he was sure to sail through his audition for “America’s Got Talent.”

But as we saw on the June 19 episode of “AGT,” head judge Simon Cowell had something else in mind for this 25-year-old singer, who intended to perform an original song that was a mashup of opera and pop. He had barely begun this tune, which came across as bland and boring, when judge Simon Cowell cut him off and requested that he sing a different song.

When Emmet admitted he had not come prepared with an alternate, Cowell seemed crossed. He dispatched him from the stage and gave him just one hour to learn another song, the Il Divo hit “Passera.”

The visibly nervous neophyte returned in the appointed 60 minutes and proceeded to wow the audience, the panel and even himself with his rendition of this Italian aria.

Dangers Of A Trump Presidency …. “Unique and Present …. “!!

~~July 23 ,2016~~

CON ARTIST

I decided a while back to stop giving “free time” to this awfully damaged, narcissistic, wanna-be businessman on this spot.

I’ve had it with him, his lies, his mysogynistic, racist and xenophobic views and incendiary remarks, his incitement to violence and his overt denial of what is obviously true, confirmed by video.

I tried to watch the “Convention“, just to be informed.

After 5-10 minutes, I’d had it.

I guess I only picked up the “important, news-worthy bits”.

That was more than enough.

I have to confess that I’m concerned for this country.

I’ concerned for the sanity of some members of its society.

I’m concerned for my country.

I’m concerned for the world.

Here are some reasons why.

At last, I see some standing up to him.

I hope it’s not too late.

The whole world is looking at America!

Washington Post Runs UNPRECEDENTED Full Page Editorial

The Washington Post ran a full-page ad today, one day after Donald Trump accepted the Republican nomination for president of the United States, spelling out in prolific and profound prose the dangers of a Trump presidency. It was an amazing piece of writing.

The piece hit on many topics: Trump’s playing on the racist and xenophobic undercurrent in GOP voter stances, his debilitating lack of experience or willingness to listen and learn, his wildly dangerous and improbable solutions to all the wrong problems, and his complete ignorance about the constitution.

‘Donald J. Trump, until now a Republican problem, this week became a challenge the nation must confront and overcome. The real estate tycoon is uniquely unqualified to serve as president, in experience and temperament. He is mounting a campaign of snarl and sneer, not substance. To the extent he has views, they are wrong in their diagnosis of America’s problems and dangerous in their proposed solutions. Mr. Trump’s politics of denigration and division could strain the bonds that have held a diverse nation together. His contempt for constitutional norms might reveal the nation’s two-century-old experiment in checks and balances to be more fragile than we knew.’

‘There is nothing on Mr. Trump’s résumé to suggest he could function successfully in Washington. He was staked in the family business by a well-to-do father and has pursued a career marked by some real estate successes, some failures and repeated episodes of saving his own hide while harming people who trusted him. Given his continuing refusal to release his tax returns, breaking with a long bipartisan tradition, it is only reasonable to assume there are aspects of his record even more discreditable than what we know.’

‘Mr. Trump campaigns by insult and denigration, insinuation and wild accusation: Ted Cruz’s father was involved in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy; Hillary Clinton may be guilty of murder; Mr. Obama is a traitor who wants Muslims to attack. The Republican Party has moved the lunatic fringe onto center stage, with discourse that renders impossible the kind of substantive debate upon which any civil democracy depends.’

‘The party’s failure of judgment leaves the nation’s future where it belongs, in the hands of voters. Many Americans do not like either candidate this year . We have criticized the presumptive Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton, in the past and will do so again when warranted. But we do not believe that she (or the Libertarian and Green party candidates, for that matter) represents a threat to the Constitution. Mr. Trump is a unique and present danger.’

IOTD …. Image of the day, #336 …. “There IS a problem in America”!!

~~September 20, 2015~

IGNORANCE … ON WHOSE PART?

Trump doesn’t challenge anti-Muslim questioner at event

“We have a problem in this country. It’s called Muslims,” an unidentified man who spoke at a question-and-answer town hall event in Rochester, New Hampshire asked the mogul at a rally Thursday night. “You know our current president is one. You know he’s not even an American.”

A seemingly bewildered Trump interrupted the man, chuckling,

“We need this question. This is the first question.”

“Anyway, we have training camps growing where they want to kill us,” the man, wearing a “Trump” T-shirt, continued. “That’s my question: When can we get rid of them?”

“We’re going to be looking at a lot of different things,” Trump replied. “You know, a lot of people are saying that and a lot of people are saying that bad things are happening. We’re going to be looking at that and many other things.”

The real estate mogul did not correct the questioner about his claims about Obama before moving on to another audience member.

A dear blogger friend taught me this concept.

~IN HER OWN WORDS~

“IOTD” is image of the day, a concept I came up with. I teach visual meditative therapy – or in easy terms – a mini mental holiday. For some people it is very difficult for them to get their image right. I post an image a day for people to use in their mini mental vacay. Some are serious, some are silly, and some are just beautiful!”

THIS IS VERY SERIOUS FOR ME

Thoughts for today, #238 …. “The Soul in Transition”!!

~~September 14, 2015~~ 

SOUL IS TRANSITIONING

“When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not yet ready.

The challenge will not wait.

Life does not look back.

A week is more than enough time for us to decide whether or not to accept our destiny.”

Paulo Coelho, The Devil and Miss Prym

“Shadow of Life” …. See through your own eyes!!

~~June 16, 2015~~ 

TO LIVE AND TO LOVE

Life is the sum of experiences that we encounter as we go through life. Day to day struggles and triumphs are experienced by all of the world’s creatures. As human beings, when we encounter a challenge, we have freedom to choose how to react. Every decision that we make leads us down a different road. We will never come to exactly the same crossroads.

Every decision the we make has significance. The tiniest choice that we make reverberates throughout the entire universe.

Shadow Of Life

Walking in the shadow of fear
drowning endlessly by a single tear
running along side of self-discovery
fearing the loss of self- recovery

parts of mind going unknown
dangerous sides going unshown
one day you will eventually die
so today make everything right

To start the day …. “Ellen and Michelle” (FLOTUS, that is)!!

~~March 14, 2015~~ 

Michelle Obama and Ellen DeGeneres Break It Down to Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk”

DON’T MISS ELLEN’S SHOW FOR MARCH 16

First Lady Michelle Obama taped Monday’s episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show. While her husband read “mean tweets” for the late-night set, Michelle got people moving and grooving with Ellen DeGeneres.

“You’re doing something new at the White House for the Easter Egg Roll, right?” the host asked.

“In honor of the fifth anniversary of the Let’s Move campaign I’ve issued this challenge. We’re calling it #GimmeFive and we’re using the hashtag #GimmeFive on social media,” Michelle said. “We’re asking folks all across the country to #GimmeFive ways their leading a healthy life. We’ve got a lot of celebrities involved,” she said, thanking Beyoncé, Nick Jonas and Ryan Seacrest for their involvement. “We’re gonna take over the Easter Egg Roll this year with a #GimmeFive dance, and actually the So You Think You Can Dance all stars are coming to the Easter Egg Roll to teach the whole South Lawn this dance.”

She added, “I have actually challenged this woman right here to learn the #GimmeFive dance.”

The audience cheered as Ellen revealed that she’s been “practicing somewhat.” The comedian continued, “I’m very busy, very, very busy and I’m not really good at choreography. I’m more of a free style.”

“You’re more street?” Michelle asked, which Ellen confirmed. The Finding Dory star then admitted, “I have tried to learn the dance, and so if that’s your challenge. You have learned the dance I assume?”

“Yeah, I’ve been … I’m busy, too, you know!” Michelle said with a laugh. “But I have taken lessons backstage. I just sort of looked over and I just thought, ‘Maybe we can do this’ … if you’re up for the challenge!” Ellen agreed, but added, “The thing is your people said you’ve been practicing for a year so.”

“My people?” Michelle asked. “You think I have people?”

“Yeah, so many people,” the comic joked. “Everyone was telling me. Well, listen, I’m in better shape than you so what we’ll do is …I mean, we know that from the push-up competition in February 2012.”

“Yes, clearly,” Michelle joked before clarifying that she won the push-up competition.

“You did not,” Ellen protested. Michelle fired back, “I did! I absolutely did!”

Ellen jokingly accused Michelle of cheating, then made peace. “OK, let’s not argue. You’re pretty.”

Michelle suggested that they see who’s more in shape “here, now.”

“A push-up competition again?” Ellen asked. FLOTUS replied, “No! No! The #GimmeFive.”

“Look how scared you were of that!” the host joked.

“Don’t let me take off my jacket,” Michelle joked. “Don’t make me take off my jacket!”
