Spandau Ballet - True

You've probably heard Spandau Ballet's True in a pivotal scene in a movie or TV episode. It was first featured in Sixteen Candles (1984).
The song was originally released in March 1983 by British band Spandau Ballet. The song charted on the UK Singles Chart and US Billboard Hot 100.

Adalbert Gyrowetz
Music Appreciation
Bohemian composer Adalbert Gyrowetz wrote more than 60 symphonies and over 30 operas and singspele.
Born on February 20, 1763 in Budweis, he studied music from his father. He then moved to Prauge and then Brno, where he began to compose symphonies. In 1785, he moved to Vienna and met Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart--Mozart was performing one of Gyrowetz' piece.
Throughout his life, he continued to travel around Europe meeting some established and well-known composers, including Joseph Hayden.
In 1804, he was appointed Vice-kapellmeister of the Court Theatre in Vienna.

Tabitha Stevens
Acting Appreciation
While I was in college, there were limited ways to watch porn. One was going to the adult bookstore or downloading a video from an internet site via dial-up. I would literally start the download, go to class, and hope I didn't lose connection by the time I came home.
One of my favorite actresses, at the time, was Tabitha Stevens. The 5'5" brunette had a charismatic presence and sensuality that was evident in her performances.
Born on February 16, 1970 in Long Island, New York, as Kelly M. Garrette, Tabitha discovered her passion for performing at a young age. She pursued dance and theater during her formative years. Eventually, she entered the world of adult entertainment and quickly gained recognition for her alluring looks, uninhibited performances, and natural talent.
Tabitha appeared in over 70 porn films, throughout her career, and was inducted in the AVN Hall of Fame in 2007. She is also a producer and director of adult films.
