Mary Lou (born March 15, 1992) is an American actress. She is known for playing Mary Ferry on the Nickelodeon television series Unfabulous.
At age 8, she chose to pursue a career in television and film.

After this performance, she chose acting as her career. Over the next few years, Lou went on to sing at over two dozen venues throughout Southern California, Texas and Tennessee, winning multiple local, state, regional, national and world championship titles.

She continues to audition daily for feature films, television and voiceover.
Sonata Arctica is a Finnish power metal band from the town of Kemi, originally assembled in 1995. Their later works (most notably The Days of Grays, Unia and a few tracks on Reckoning Night and Winterheart's Guild) contain several elements typical of progressive metal.
The band was founded by Marko Paasikoski, Jani Liimatainen and Tommy Portimo in Kemi at the end of 1995 (Tony Kakko and Pentti Peura joined in early 1996). Originally named Tricky Beans, they played hard rock rather than the power metal with which they grew to fame. During their early career, they recorded three demos which were never sent to any recording label — Friend 'till the End, Agre Pamppers and PeaceMaker.
In 1997 the band changed their name to Tricky Means, and from that point until 1999 their style was thoroughly worked upon and ultimately was drastically changed, acquiring strong emphasis on the keyboard melodies and relying on an easily distinguishable rhythm line maintained both by the bass and the guitar. Vocalist Tony Kakko developed a clean singing style which relies both on falsetto and tenor voices and second guitarist Marko Paasikoski left the band. Kakko has stated that the change of sound was influenced by fellow Finnish power metal band Stratovarius.

Plot: A fortyish cancer-stricken, emaciated Frank Crosby and his fifteen-year-old son Clay, who is the healthful, youthful image of his father, are spending an afternoon enjoying the atmosphere of Venice Beach. They enter Oddities, a store where the gypsy woman owner gives them a pair of special wingtip shoes. Later that night in the hospital where Frank lay dying, he shares with Clay his memory of a postcard image: a golf course where people are playing and are leisurely sipping tea. Frank dies and leaves behind a distraught family: Clay, his little sister Maggie, and their mother Janice. Clay wistfully goes to his father's closet and finds the wingtips from earlier in the day. Putting them on, he is transported back in time and becomes his father as a child. He discovers he can travel back and forth in time just by putting on or taking off the shoes. Clay learns a great deal about his father's early years and is eager to learn more...

Plot: "Stevie' Carson (Janet Martin (I)'), daughter of a famous newspaperman, has ambitions to follow in her father's footsteps and visits the City Room of "The Gazette" in search of a job. There, Danny Butler ('Warren Douglas (I)' (qv)), in charge of the newspaper morgue, plays a mean trick on her but, through a fluke, she is befriended by Bill Monroe ('Dougls Fowley' )qv)), the paper's feature editor, who introduces her to the paper's publisher, Channing Bliss ('Francis PIerlot'), and she is hired and assigned to Danny's department. She learns that Bliss is a collector of rare books which he buys through the paper's literary editor, Bruce Coleman ('William Bakewell' (qv)), and she accidentally learns that Bliss' latest acquisition is a phony first-edition. She tells Bill who confronts Coleman. The latter admits the forgery but stalls Bill, promising to make amends. Coleman visits the bookshop of E.Charles ('Gregory Gaye' (qv)), forger of the book, and tells him the jig is up. Charles plots to kill Bill to prevent any further inquiries. Coleman then goes to his sister, Linda ('Dale Evans (I)' (qv)), who is engaged to Bill and tells her a lie that Bill is mixed up with a forgery gang and that Bill is taking him to the gang's hideout. The car he and Bill are riding in is forced off the road and Coleman is killed and Bill injured. Linda thinks Bill had her brother hilled. Bill, in an effort to clear his name enlists the aid of "Stevie." Linda still suspects Bill but since her brother mentioned Charles' bookshop, she and "Stevie" go there to investigate. The forger promptly makes prisoners of the two girls. Bill learns from Danny that the two girls are canvassing the city's bookstore but does not know which one, and his search for the two damsels-in-distress is hindered by Detective-Lieutenant Kirk ('Grant Withers' (qv)) who is suspicious of Bill.

Plot: Embezzler, shill, all around confidence man S. Quentin Quale is heading west to find his fortune; he meets the crafty but simple brothers Joseph and Rusty Panello in a train station, where they steal all his money. They're heading west, too, because they've heard you can just pick the gold off the ground. Once there, they befriend an old miner named Dan Wilson whose property, Dead Man's Gulch, has no gold. They loan him their last ten dollars so he can go start life anew, and for collateral, he gives them the deed to the Gulch. Unbeknownst to Wilson, the son of his longtime rival, Terry Turner (who's also in love with his daughter, Eva), has contacted the railroad to arrange for them to build through the land, making the old man rich and hopefully resolving the feud. But the evil Red Baxter, owner of a saloon, tricks the boys out of the deed, and it's up to them - as well as Quale, who naturally finds his way out west anyway - to save the day.
