The James Bond Books by Ian Fleming: Casino Royale
by
David Leigh
When Ian Fleming arrived at his Jamaican home for his annual winter vacation in 1952 he had a few things on his mind. After a long-term affair with Anne Charteris the divorcee had fallen pregnant with Fleming's child; in 1950s England there was only one thing to do and that was no longer postpone the inevitable and get married. The pair had met while she was married to Lord O'Neill, a friend of Fleming's who was killed in action during the Second World War.

A Night at the Opera Is Anything But Monkey Business!
by
Dr. Gary S. Goodman
A Marx Brothers comedy gem is the film, "A Night at the Opera," in which they lampoon the stuffiness of fans of this classical theatrical form. But there are serious insights and lessons to be gleaned from the REAL opera, which I've only recently been attending with any regularity. Yesterday, I had the pleasure of seeing Verde's "La Traviata," starring amazing soprano, Renee Fleming. Apart from the soaring voices and tragic story, what stirred me was something I've experienced elsewhere, seeing great theater in New York and London. In a word, it's EXCELLENCE. The world of opera is uncompromising. Greatness and perfection are appreciated, understood, and above all, demanded by discerning fans and trigger happy critics. You can't get away with serving up the mediocre, according to Dr. Gary S. Goodman, top speaker and trainer, best-selling author, and Fortune 1000 consultant.

Can Anybody Learn How To Sing Opera? Settling The Great Controversy
by
Victor Dorfman
In the last few years there's been an explosion of interest among the general population in learning how to sing opera. Sure, opera has been a popular art form since its inception but the pop and rock music takeover made the world forget about opera for a while. Even in Europe, where opera singing is greatly admired by the majority of the population, pop and rock concerts sell out while opera houses struggle with ticket sales.

Plot Differences Between the Novel and Movie Versions of Casino Royale
by
Nellie Rider
Casino Royale was Ian Fleming's first ever novel and in it he introduced James Bond, who since publication in 1953, has become a worldwide phenomenon largely thanks to the success of the film series. It's strange then to think that this book, the first of the James Bond books, was only adapted properly for the big screen in 2006 in the critically and commercially successful movie staring Daniel Craig.

Cancer: Causes and Remedies (Part Three)
by
Djehuty Ma'at-Ra
What Is Cancer? Many people are succumbing to cancer and the two biggest factors in this succumbing to cancer are FEAR and IGNORANCE. Yes, people are ignorant to what cancer really is and as a result, they fear it. In 400 B.C., Hippocrates assigned the name of Cancer or crab to a disease encountered during this era, because of its crab-like spread throughout the body. Cancer's Greek name was "Karkinos." In 164 A.D., Galen of Rome called the disease "tumor" which derived from the word "tymbos" meaning a sepulchral mound. In Latin, it was called "tumore" which meant "to swell."
