U.S. Route 74 is an east–west United States highway that runs for 497 miles (800 km) from Cleveland, Tennessee to Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina.
Established in 1987, US-74's western terminus is exit 20 on I-75 in Cleveland. After 1.5 miles (2.4 km), it is overlapped with US-64 for the remaining 42.3 miles (68.1 km) in Tennessee before entering North Carolina (a total of 43.8 miles (70.5 km)).
Signage for US-74 is poor, as it appears more as an after-thought by TDOT. Most highways that cross US-74 will typically only mention US-64 instead; I-75 even ignores US-74 at its terminus, showing instead a connector to US-64. US-74 may actually continue as a hidden highway west into Chattanooga, ending at I-24/I-75 interchange.
From the Tennessee state line, US 74 traverses across the southern portion of the state, connecting the cities Asheville, Charlotte, and Wilmington, for a total of 451.8 miles (727.1 km). US 74 is a major North Carolina highway between Asheville and Wilmington.
Established in 1987, US 74 was overlapped on pre-existing highways in the region, specifically the: Appalachian Highway (at-grade expressway, except in the Nantahala Gorge) and the Great Smoky Mountains Expressway (controlled-access freeway, which is broken in three sections along the route). The alternating named highway (depending on grade of road) is considered the commercial back-bone and main truck route of Western North Carolina, connecting the cities of Murphy, Andrews, Bryson City, Cherokee, Sylva, and Waynesville. In or around October, the fall colors create an influx of more tourists in the region. In the winter months, the highway is the first to be salted and plowed; however, both the Nantahala Gorge and Balsam Gap tend to get the most snow and/or ice in the region and should be traveled with care.

Barack Hussein Obama II (i/bəˈrɑːk huːˈseɪn oʊˈbɑːmə/; born August 4, 1961) is the 44th and current President of the United States. He is the first African American to hold the office. In January 2005, Obama was sworn in as a U.S. Senator in the state of Illinois. He would hold this office until November 2008, when he resigned following his victory in the 2008 presidential election.
Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, Obama is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was the president of the Harvard Law Review. He was a community organizer in Chicago before earning his law degree. He worked as a civil rights attorney in Chicago and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004. He served three terms representing the 13th District in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004.
Following an unsuccessful bid against the Democratic incumbent for a seat in the United States House of Representatives in 2000, Obama ran for the United States Senate in 2004. Several events brought him to national attention during the campaign, including his victory in the March 2004 Illinois Democratic primary for the Senate election and his keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July 2004. He won election to the U.S. Senate in Illinois in November 2004. His presidential campaign began in February 2007, and after a close campaign in the 2008 Democratic Party presidential primaries against Hillary Rodham Clinton, he won his party's nomination. In the 2008 presidential election, he defeated Republican nominee John McCain, and was inaugurated as president on January 20, 2009. Nine months later, Obama was named the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize laureate. In April 2011, he announced that he would be running for re-election in 2012.
Joran Andreas Petrus van der Sloot (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈjɔːrɑn vɑn dər ˈsloʊt]; born August 6, 1987) is a Dutch citizen who lived in Aruba. He has been indicted by a federal grand jury in the United States for wire fraud and extortion related to the whereabouts of Natalee Holloway, who disappeared in Aruba on May 30, 2005, and pled guilty in Peru to the murder and robbery of Stephany Tatiana Flores Ramírez, who died in the Peruvian capital Lima on May 30, 2010, exactly five years after Holloway's disappearance.
Van der Sloot was apprehended on June 3, 2010, in Chile and was deported to Peru the next day. On June 7, he confessed to causing the death of Flores Ramírez and was transferred on June 11 to Miguel Castro Castro maximum security prison in Lima. He attempted to legally retract his confession, claiming that he had been intimidated by the National Police of Peru and framed by the FBI. However, a Peruvian judge ruled on June 25, 2010, that the confession is valid.
The Holloway and Flores Ramírez cases both attracted widespread media attention. Van der Sloot continued to be the subject of international news coverage from prison, leading to controversies that resulted in the investigation and suspension of Peruvian officials.Time magazine declared Van der Sloot's arrest the top crime story of 2010.
My daddy came a-marchin'
Over the hill at dawn
Had to make that wage, man
That's how we got along
My daddy's life was workin'
Workin' all day long
Put food on the table
And the children sang a song
Yes, the children sang a song
My granddad's name was Pulpwood
Wore a coat of green
Took a wife in '31
Drove the big machine
My daddy load the lumber
Put it on the truck
I used to see him walkin' home
On U.S. 41
That's right, U.S. 41
Well, all my life's been workin'
Out the door and gone
Got to make that overtime
Keep us movin' on
I need a drink of water
Get out of the sun
Burnin' up to make that wage
That's right, U.S. 41
The boss man owns the business
Keeps it goin' strong
Blowin' like a hurricane
And work like nothing wrong
We got to keep on movin'
'Til the bell gone ring
Fill her up with kerosene
And let that lady sing
Whoa, now let that lady sing
His given name was Lucky
His wife's name, Annie Brown
Ran outside the law
And they chased him right on down
Lucky faced the lawman
The captain drew his gun
They put him with a sling blade
On U.S. 41
That's right, U.S. 41
Yeah, that's right
On U.S. 41
My daddy came a-marchin'
Over the hill at dawn
Alfonse Capone
Godfather on a throne
A king of crime
A product of his time
A pimp before puberty
A menace to society
Bootlegging and bribery
Outrageous brutality
Prostitution and gambling
The Chicago mobster
Scarface was a monster
He got life in jail
With no set bail
Beat the rock
AZ 85
Alone in a cell
A self inflicted hell
Refusal of medicine
The nails for his coffin
In a Florida sun
Alfonse's life was done
He was a king of crime
Now he's done his time
AZ 85
Beat the rock
All my loves are hidden in pieces
All my loves are within a wild night
All my loves are hidden in pieces
All my loves are within a wild night
All my loves are hidden in pieces
All my loves are within a wild night
All my loves are hidden in pieces
All my loves are within a wild night
If they are still up high
We'll throw them to the sea
If they are still on high
We'll throw them to the sea
If they are still up high
We'll throw them to the sea
Watch the murder of the wilds
To the music of the deep
Wild night, wild night
All my loves are hidden in pieces
All my loves are within a wild night
All my loves are hidden in pieces
All my loves are within a wild night
If they are still up high
We'll throw them to the sea
If they are still on high
We'll throw them to the sea
If they are still up high
We'll throw them to the sea
Watch the murder of the wilds
To the music of the deep
Wild night, wild night
Within a wild night
Wild night, wild night
Wild night, wild night
Wild night, wild night
Wild night, wild night
Am I the victim?
I woke up at the end of my rope today, but I’m fine.
I feel just fine.
On the inside I’m falling apart.
On the inside I’m falling apart.
Look away, don’t watch this happen to me.
I thought the hard times were changing.
Go away, just let this happen to me.
I know my struggles aren’t ending.
(Who else knows? Who else knows? Tell me who else
knows. Who else knows?)
(I’m not a troubled man. I’m not a troubled man. I’m
not. I’m not.)
They knew all this time.
Run like rats in maze.
Chasing, and chasing a walking nightmare.
Escape! Escape!
Escape from them, from myself.
Look away, don’t watch this happen to me.
I thought the hard times were changing.
Go away, just let this happen to me.
I know my struggles aren’t ending.
Who is 67?
Tell me how.
How do I escape?
(How do I escape?)
Am I a troubled man?
Don’t prescribe me a lost cause.
I am the victim.
Look away, don’t watch this happen to me.
I thought the hard times were changing.
Go away, just let this happen to me.
Verse One
Is there a place in your heart with a missing peace. Are you trying to get over but you can't win for losing. You try to figure it out. But you don't know how. So you struggle with doubt. Turn it over to JESUS. Whatever you need is all found in HIM.
Chorus
If you need the Faith to keep on believing. If you need the Hope to shine on your fears. If you need the Love that conquers anything. JESUS Is! If you need the Way to take you to HEAVEN. If you need the Truth to make things clear.
If you need the Life that changes everything. JESUS Is!
Verse Two
Move up a little higher and find your new beginning. Step out a little further into the joy of living. You've got to say, "I can do all things through CHRIST who gives me the strength". This you must pray. Turn it over to JESUS whatever you need is all found in HIM.
Bridge
JESUS is the blood that's flowing through your veins. Yes HE Is.
JESUS is the light that lights your way.

What about my life Since you found
Yourself To be So strong
So nice, so beautiful
