Sunday, December 9th, 2007

“Back Door Santa” is a song originally performed by Clarence Carter and released on a compilation album Soul Christmas in 1968. The track is in a 12-bar blues format.

Reading Anthracite Company | reading

Sunday, August 26th, 2007

Reading Anthracite Company is a coal mining company based in Pottsville, Pennsylvania in the United States. It mainly mines anthracite coal in the Coal Region of eastern Pennsylvania.


History

Reading Anthracite Company; origins date back to 1871 when its predecessor, the Philadelphia Reading Coal and Iron Company (P.&R.C.&I.) was chartered. As a large publicly traded concern, P.&R.C.&I. had diverse industrial interests which revolved primarily around its main business of railroading. P.&R.C.&I. changed its corporate title in 1956 to Philadelphia & Reading Corporation, of which Reading Anthracite Company was one of its many operating divisions. In 1961, Philadelphia & Reading Corporation divested itself of its anthracite coal interests, selling the Reading Anthracite company to its present owners.

Saturday, June 2nd, 2007

Sheldon Haley, better known as Shay or Shae, is an African American musician. He is a member of the rock-hip-hop band, N*E*R*D. Haley appears to keep away from the spotlight, compared to his band mates, Pharrell Williams and, to a lesser extent, Chad Hugo, who are both members of the production duo The Neptunes.

He states the Beatles as the rock act which was his main influence and inspiration.[1]

His role in N*E*R*D appears limited though, he only seems to give backing vocals to some of the tracks.
