He was one of the most beloved and respected artists in the world, reports The New York Daily News. Prince had his one-of-a-kind estate, Paisley Park, built in 1985. The massive estate is in Chanhassen, MN. The self-contained compound is over 55,000 square feet and cost $10 million to build. It was designed by architect Bret Theony. The unique estate includes two recording studios, a large performance center, a dance studio, offices and living accommodations that Prince called home. Tragically Paisley Park is also where Prince died. Prince used Paisley Park to film his movies, record his music and store his huge collection of costumes. Today, Paisley Park has been transformed into a museum where fans can see the estate exactly as it was when Prince called it home. One of the most popular attractions inside of Paisley Park is the Purple Rain room, reports Access Hollywood. Prince's estate will also open a series of Paisley Park After Dark dance parties and movie nights. Tickets to those events are $60. The dance parties and movie nights will be held in the NPG Music Club room. The April festival will be held in the much larger 1,800 capacity sound

  • Summary Of Persuasive Speech By Florence Kelley

    446 Words  | 2 Pages

    In an era of limited rights for women and minorities, social worker Florence Kelley delivers a persuasive speech to a live audience at the Philadelphia convention of the National American Woman Suffrage Association. Through repetition of important details, along with harrowing examples of awful working conditions, the author brings to light the issues of child labor and invites listeners to empathize. She then employs rhetorical questions to deliver a scathing critique of the carelessly permissive labor laws in place. In doing so, she creates a convincing argument that emphasizes the need to change child labor laws in the United States, and beckons the present listener to take action and join her cause.

I first heard of this tremendous defensemen back in the 2009-10 season where he helped prevail the Chicago Blackhawks to their first Stanley Cup victory since 1961. It seems like Duncan never has a bad season and makes very few mistakes on the ice. The amount of time he puts into this game really shows his dedication and love for hockey.

    The blueprint was created in 1682. It was one of the five parks drawn by William Penn. Although the main purpose was to be a park it ended up serving for a much greater cause. It was used as a potter’s field (A potter’s field is a cemetery for unknown or indigent people) from 1706-1793.

  • Speech On Australia Day

    688 Words  | 3 Pages

    Para 1 - Chris Kenny introduces the controversial topic of Australia Day by suggesting that it isn’t what it used to be, once a “phlegmatic and relaxed” celebration of our achievements, now it has become a day in which we must “express your guilt for generations past”. “Sadly Australia Day has become a day of sanctimony” attacks those who view the day, and life in general, in an ultra politically correct light, stating the “new breed of Australian” must “speak in approved phrases” in order to prevent from offending someone. Kenny exposes this behaviour through appealing to the tradition and customs of Australians who may be reluctant to accept this behaviour, mirrored by his romanticising of the past, “Our nation was founded in a spirit of optimism and co-operation”, positions the audience to see the absurdity of this way of thinking, and align themselves with more old fashioned notions. It is this notion however, Martin Flanagan believes, will “drive us apart” showing that the view Kenny portrays would create a “divide” in our country. Explained in “The Problem with Australia Day”, Flanagan gives insight into the history of our national day, aligning audiences to concur with the evidence, which states John Howard is the instigator of Australia Day as we know it today.

    I totally agreed with you. I too don't think Columbus Day should be a celebration of Columbus victory in discovering America. However, I do think we should keep the holiday and make it a day to grief for the lives lost from Columbus' violence and greed. I don't think Americans repay the Indians enough after putting them through such horror and genocide. Instead, we hurt them even more by naming a Holiday after their murder.

    Australia Day is one of the most unique national day’s in the world throughout history, celebrating the day of when our ancestors first arrived on the borders of Australia, in 1788. Rather than unite people as one whole though, the spirited outcome of this event isn’t what as anticipated by everyone and has divided the Australian society for good. And so it should be held at an alternative date, where Australian citizens feel worthy of their identity and not cheated by it. However, the celebration shouldn’t be adapted to like that of other commemorations like ANZAC day. Essentially, this day will always be a tragic memory for the indigenous and be viewed as the invasion of their homeland.
