Pearl Jam will be the last band to ever perform at the Philadelphia Spectrum when they perform their only east coast appearances at the soon-to-close arena on Oct. 28 and 30.

Comcast-Spectacor and Live Nation will celebrate the final months of the Spectrum with a series of final farewell concerts to say “goodbye” to America’s Showplace, the Spectrum.

Additionally, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, one of the most popular acts to ever perform at the Spectrum, will return to perform two more shows there before the building closes on Oct. 13 and 14.

“It’s really great to play a place with so much history and so much integration of culture,” said Pearl Jam lead singer Eddie Vedder when the band last performed at the Spectrum (April 28, 2003). “To be able to play the Spectrum is very memorable for us.”  Read more... (229 words)

I’ve been having a bit of writers block, but was looking through some more of my old poetry and found this one, and was wondering what you think of it:
INDEPENDENCE DAY
On this day we celebrate,
The birth of a Nation,
And all things great.
But sometimes I feel we are doing it wrong,
With the tinker tape and parades galore,
I celebrate in silence, in prayer and peace,
My heart cries out for those who seek,
The freedom they fought for back in Nam,
And in other places near and far.
Past and Present, and Future Hold,
The things week sought, and found, and will know,
But the thing I like most, about America and being free,
Is those who lived and died for me.
The POW/MIA, the KIA and those Unknown who lay,
In the site that they will forever be,
Because they died to keep us free.
Independence did not come cheap,
Many died, and many still weep.
Thank you all for all you did and all you do,
You make me proud to wear the Red, White and Blue.
You’re the Heroes of America, a country of refuge.

Al Pacino (as satan) in the movie “the devil’s advocate” states
“who in their rights minds would say the 21st century wasn’t entirely mine? the whole of it!”
I know there are a lot of good things going on in the world (givings, good health, spiritual growth, love, etc) but @ the same time, evil thrives well! (genocide, diseases, immorality [Sodom & Gomorrah resurfacing]etc). I myself continue trying to live according to my religious convictions. The Bible has prophesied that so many bad things that’ll happen before Jesus returns (e.g persecution of christians). Do you think the prophecy is itself already? (Crime and immorality are on the rise worldwide, not to mention tensions between nations) Because rerouting back to Al Pacino’s line from that movie, I can’t help but think to myself that he has a point, however, i still believe satan will be cast into hell along with his goons.
please feel free to share your thoughts (Atheists too are more than welcome)  Read more... (175 words)

I have about a 3.15 gpa sadly,but I have a 2050 on my SAT’s, with a 710 Critical Reading, 700 Mathematics, 640 Writing. Also, my highschool is very highly ranked, about 300th in the country I think, and its public.I am in Model United Nations, Mock Trial, A Capella, and Philosophy Club. I took two AP’s Junior year, History and English, and Senior year I have three, with AP Psychology being the third. One reason my gpa is so low is my grades in Spanish class, (C’s and C+’s in regular level class. I also take honors chemistry and math, though I’m probably dropping down to regular level science senior year to lighten the load. I have held a summer job at staples last summer and again this summer, and they love me there. I also had an internship at a large public company last summer. Some of the people I can get recommendations from include: CEO of fortune 100 company, high level execs from the place I interned at. I am a good writer and will have a very good application essay, and I also interview well. I used to play freshman football before an eye surgery left me with double vision which I have had ever since. I am white and my dad makes $280,000 a year, and I live in Massachusetts. Feel free to suggest other good business schools for me if you like, but please answer my original question first, also, I am very interested in Babson and Bentley, so if you know about those too that would be appreciated.Also, I did do some community service. I have worked with habitat for humanity and participated in the walk for hunger, and plan to do more before I apply.  Read more... (307 words)

I don’t want to leave them on an island because I think it’s beneficial to have allies in the Middle East. However, it’s put us in a catch-22. Many other nations in the Arab world hate us solely because of our loyalty to Israel. Is there any way we can resolve the conflict between them and Palestine. Couldn’t the neighboring countries in the fertile crescent take in some of the Palestinian refugees? I feel bad for them because they’ve had to remain autonomous like the Kurds. Is there any way we can get them to sign some sort of treaty where they can dissolve the West Bank and allow the Israelites and the Palestinians to live together peacefully like the blacks and whites in America or the Anglophones and Francophones in Canada?
