Ola is the third album released by Swedish pop singer Ola.
The self-titled album Ola was released in Sweden in September 2010, and debuted at #3 in the official Swedish album chart. It is the first release on Ola's own label Oliniho Records, after buying himself out of his deal with Universal Music. It spawned three hit singles, "Unstoppable", "Overdrive" and "All Over The World", which was Ola's first international single release. The similarity between "All Over The World" and "Somebody To Love" by Justin Bieber is often noted, but believed to be coincidence, as the two were released at the same time.
The album also contained a track, "Let It Hit You", composed by Ola with regular collaborator Alexander Kronlund and British artist Labrinth.
Riot is an historical novel based upon the Pressed Steel Car Strike of 1909 by William Trautmann, a founder of the United States Industrial Workers of the World (IWW).
The Chinese Elm cultivar Ulmus parvifolia 'Glory' is one of the early American selections, best known for its winter hardiness.
'Glory' can reach heights over 13 m.
The species and its cultivars are highly resistant, but not immune, to Dutch elm disease, and unaffected by the Elm Leaf Beetle Xanthogaleruca luteola.
'Glory' is common in the United States. The tree featured in the elm trials conducted by Northern Arizona University at Holbrook. It is not known to have been introduced to Europe or Australasia. Hardiness: USDA zones 5b–10a.
Glory is a sculpture created by American artist Garry R. Bibbs in 1999. The sculpture resides on the corner of West Michigan Street in Indianapolis, Indiana. Glory is made from fabricated steel and bronze. Angels and trumpets are the two distinct images visible within the sculpture. The sculpture is very large, with dimensions of 80 ft x 40 ft x 1 ft, and it sits at the entrance to the J. F. Miller Center. Gibbs signed his name to the sculpture and included a copyright sign.
The sculpture was commissioned by Joseph F. Miller, founder of the J. F. Miller Center. The dedication date is listed as March 1999. The Joseph F. Miller Center on West Michigan Street used to house the Second Baptist Church, one of the city’s oldest African-American Baptist churches, until it moved in 2002. The building was renovated to become a place for offices and now houses the Miller Center, which commissioned the sculpture.
Bibbs drew inspiration from the Bible’s book of Ezekiel, from African-American heritage and from a historical African-American medical clinic located nearby.
Glory is high renown, praise and honor obtained by notable achievements, and based in extensive common consent. In Greek culture fame and glory were highly considered, as it is explained in The Symposium, one of Plato's dialogs.
Kleos (Greek: κλέος) is the Greek word often translated to "renown", or "glory". It is related to the word "to hear" and carries the implied meaning of "what others hear about you". A Greek hero earns kleos through accomplishing great deeds, often through his own death. Kleos is invariably transferred from father to son; the son is responsible for carrying on and building upon the "glory" of the father.
Kleos is a common theme in Homer's epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey, the main example in the latter being that of Odysseus and his son Telemachus, who is concerned that his father may have died a pathetic and pitiable death at sea rather than a reputable and gracious one in battle.
The Greek philosopher Plato, in his dialog Symposium devoted to discuss love, makes a digression into the subject of fame and glory. It is in the section that deals with the dialog between Socrates and Diotima. She is explaining that men search ways to reach some kind of immortality, for instance by means of physical and intellectual procreation. Then asserts that the love for fame and glory is very strong, and in fact to obtain them, men are ready to engage in great efforts, and also run risks and sacrifices, even of their lives, and still more for this than for their children. Then makes concrete references to Alcestis that died to save Admetus, or Achilles to avenge Patroclus, and to Codrus, as examples of heroes in search of fame and immortal renown.
"Calling" is the first single released from Taproot's third studio album Blue-Sky Research. Like most of the songs on the album, it is significantly less heavy than their previous singles, and shows more of a standard alternative rock/post-grunge approach.
The song's music video was directed by Moh Azima.
Onward my people they
Came to these shores
From so far away
Searching for freedom
They had known before
Many fall and pray
On this land they build
Their homes fighting wind and rain
Running far from pain they'd known
Now this land they claim
Fight
Into the night, we as one are free
Fight
War burning bright glory calling me
Fight
Into the dark never will i run
Fight
Cavalry charge this land and i are one
Many have fallen
Anf many have died all along the way
Fight for the families of
Those who have cried
This land is where i'll stay !
Mount your horses, one by one
Throw your fears aside
Here for huron blood we've come
For huron blood we ride
Fight
Into the night, we as one are free
Fight
War burning bright glory calling me
Fight
Into the dark never will i run
Fight
