"Kids" is a duet by singers Robbie Williams and Kylie Minogue, released as the second single from Sing When You're Winning, Williams' third studio album, and the third single from Light Years, Minogue's seventh studio album.[2] Williams and his then songwriting partner Guy Chambers co-wrote the song for Minogue.
The track was written when Minogue approached Williams to write her some songs for what would be her first album under Parlophone, Light Years. It was then that Williams felt the chemistry and decided to turn the song into a duet as well as include the track on his album and release it as a single. It was released on 9 October 2000 and reached number two in the United Kingdom while becoming a top-10 hit in five other countries. The music video for the song contains several references to the musical film Grease, particularly in the choreography between Williams and Minogue.[3]
Chart performance
The song became a hit in the United Kingdom, reaching number two and selling over 200,000 copies to earn a silver certification from the BPI.[4] The track also entered the top 10 in Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, New Zealand, and Portugal, and it peaked at number 14 in Minogue's native Australia, where "Kids" is certified gold for shipments of over the 35,000 copies.[5] The lyrics, although penned by Robbie Williams and Guy Chambers, make numerous references to the careers of both Minogue and Williams. Minogue's lyric "I've been dropping beats since Back in Black" is a self-deprecating reference to her 1980s pop image when she was known as the singing budgie from Australia—Back in Black being a 1980s album by Australian band AC/DC and of a stark contrast to her own style at the time. Later, in 2010, this song is used as the theme song of Junior Masterchef Australia.

The Biggest Mistake I Ever Made T here was a time in my life when I played quite a bit of basketball. I was leading engineering at a start-up in Scottsdale, AZ, my wife was doing her residency, and we didn’t have kids yet. Other than work, I had plenty of time and I filled it with basketball. I would typically play three to four mornings, in one or two leagues in the evenings, and do shooting drills for fun on the weekends. I started a team in one of those leagues and recruited a few players I knew to play. None of us were unusually skilled, just a few working professionals who happened to like basketball and got along amazingly well. As is typical with new teams, we weren’t very good in the beginning. We were all decent players in our own right, but we didn’t gel as a team yet and it showed in the early games. By the end of the first season there were glimpses of what we could be, though we didn’t make the playoffs. By the end of the second season, when we lost in the championshi...
59. HUAN DISPERSÃO (DISSOLUÇÃO) Acima: SUN, A SUAVIDADE, VENTO. Abaixo: SUN, A SUAVIDADE, VENTO. O vento soprando sobre a água vem a dispersá-la e dissolvê-la em espuma e vapor. Isso sugere que a energia vital de um homem, quando está acumulada em seu interior (o que é indicado como sendo perigoso pelo atributo do trigrama inferior), poderá ser libertada pela suavidade que dissolve o bloqueio. Julgamento DISPERSÃO. Sucesso. O rei aproxima-se de seu templo. É favorável atravessar a grande água. A perseverança é favorável. O texto desse hexagrama assemelha-se ao do hexagrama Ts’ui, REUNIÃO (45). Lá trata-se da reunião dos elementos que se separaram, assim como a água se reúne sobre a terra, formando lagos. Aqui o tema é a dispersão e a dissolução do egoísmo que a tudo separa. O hexagrama DISPERSÃO mostra o caminho que, por assim dizer, conduz à reunião. Isso explica a semelhança dos dois textos. Para superar o egoísmo que separa os homens é preciso recorrer a forças religiosas. O me...

The link between Wealth and Happiness 1 September 6, 2011 by Chris Nöthling Two weeks ago I had the good fortune to attend the WB Financial Annual Conference at the Sheraton Mirage at the Gold Coast, QLD. One of the key note speakers was the CEO of the Association of Financial Advisers (AFA) – Mr Richard Klipin – who commented about the value of financial planning in the life of people. He stressed that good advice changes people’s lives and that there is a nobility to the financial planning profession that is missed by the impending FOFA legislation. Mr Klipin made reference to the AFA’s Back to Basics research carried out in 2010, which highlights that consumers who were involved in an advice relationship were better planned, happier with their investments and had greater peace of mind. The concern, however, is that with 2 in 10 Consumers in an advice relationship, Australians are under-advised, underinsured and under-saved. Mr Klipin spoke about AFA’s “Make a Plan” campaign wh...
In Search of Lost Time by Marcel Proust Swann's Way, the first part of A la recherche de temps perdu, Marcel Proust's seven-part cycle, was published in 1913. In it, Proust introduces the themes that run through the entire work. The narrator recalls his childhood, aided by the famous madeleine; and describes M. Swann's passion for Odette. The work is incomparable. Edmund Wilson said "[Proust] has supplied for the first time in literature an equivalent in the full scale for the new theory of modern physics." Valentin Louis Georges Eugène Marcel Proust was a French novelist, critic, and essayist who wrote the monumental novel In Search of Lost Time, originally published in French in seven volumes between 1913 and 1927. He is considered by critics and writers to be one of the most influential authors of the 20th century. Famous Quotes: * If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time. * T...

Daikiti Puerto Ricans have a very peculiar way of speaking (read it "their accent"). Called Boricuas (read more below), I'm blessed to have one as my soulmate, directly from Santurce Puerto Rico! It is known that Puerto Rican descendants call themselves Puerto Ricans . ... Boricua , derived from the Taíno word Boriken is used to affirm Puerto Ricans devotion to the island's Taíno heritage. The word Boriken translates to "the great land of the valiant and noble Lord". Bad Bunny is a very popular Puerto Rico Singer and just released it's brand new song called DAIKITI. "Dakiti means empowerment, fighter, boss b--ch," someone wrote in the replies, attributing the definition to Karol G. Another responded, "Dakiti is a sensation of euphoria that you feel when you are having a really nice time on the go." As a mix of Ostentation (money) Latin Rap together with tons of sex the music is super catchy. However, understanding the Sl...
