Who You Gonna Call: A Psychic or the Holy Spirit?
I am writing this passage not as a tool to preach or convert anybody. I understand that some people take the Bible as the literal word of God, others consider it a fairytale, some call it propaganda, some call it a history book written by humans, some call it fiction, while others call it a lie. The point of this article is not to change anybody's viewpoint of what they think of the Bible, but to share some historical insight into what the Bible says about psychics and mediums. I think it is very interesting.

30 Great Songs of Donna Summer. Top Story - December 2022.
Donna Summer achieved major success throughout her career. She made it into the Top 10 with 14 songs in the US and has sold more than 100 million albums worldwide. To this day her albums still sell about 1.5 million copies per year every year and her fan base is as strong and fervent as it was in the 1970s. I love Donna Summer. Her voice was amazing. I would go so far as to call her one of the greatest vocalists of all-time.

A Brief History of "There's a Kind of Hush"
The New Vaudeville Band (1966) The studio group, The New Vaudeville Band, which was assembled by Geoff Stephens, struck gold in the fall of 1966 with their mega-hit "Winchester Cathedral" which was #1 in Australia, Canada, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, and the US. It was also Top 3 in Brazil, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Rhodesia, and the UK. After such a huge hit the pressure was on for a follow-up. Songwriter, producer, and arranger Geoff Stephens was tasked with the daunting duty. He chose "There's A Kind of Hush" a neo–British Music Hall number with a peppy horn section and bouncy percussion. The expectation was that this polished metropolitan pop number would follow "Winchester Cathedral" into the Top 3. The song did just that when it made it to #2 in South Africa. The only problem is that that was it. The song was a hit in only one other country: Australia where it reached #12.

The Mystery Box Foundation
It is 3:33 p.m. and 33 seconds and like clockwork Ryde's mail has been received. As Ryde scans his mind, he sees the usual white lights flashing which indicates junk mail. Ryde deletes the flashing white lights and is left with two yellow lights which indicate bills, so he files those into his bill folder. Each bill will pop up 10 minutes before they are due and will automatically be paid. But there's one light left, a mysterious purple light which he's never seen before.

Fans Choice: 30 Favorite New Wave Songs
Celebrate Your Life!!! Recently, I conducted a survey of 155 people asking what their favorite New Wave songs are. I have long been a fan of New Wave music. It started in the summer of 1978 when I bought the single "The Robots" by Kraftwerk. I was into this futuristic thing which began a year earlier with the film Star Wars. This electronic dance tune was the catalyst that helped me branch out into the world of New Wave music.
