Buttermilk Falls is a terraced ribbon waterfall measuring 23 metres (75 feet) in height. It's located on a tributary of the Red Hill Creek. It experiences a full, impressive flow after a heavy rain or during the winter snow melt.
Buttermilk Falls is quite close to Albion Falls. It's a narrow ribbon waterfall that streams down into a deep, impressive gorge.
Given the size of this stony ravine, the original water flow must have been immense and powerful at one time. Those who visit this waterfall are also treated to a stunning view of Red Hill Valley.

Driving with an overseas licence
In Australia, laws and driving regulations differ from state to state. Some states require you to carry an International Licence with your current foreign licence. Other states request you carry your current foreign driver's licence together with a formal translation of your licence into English.
In most Australian states and territories (the exception is the Northern Territory), you are able to drive on a overseas licence as long as it is current. You can only drive vehicles which your overseas licence authorises you to drive and you must drive according to any conditions on your overseas licence.
Select the state or territory you will be driving in to find out what the laws are for driving with an overseas licence.

There's an upside and a downside to our focus on bullying prevention. The upside, of course, is that we're shedding light on the pervasive culture of mean that is destroying the confidence of so many children and teens.
The downside is that the conversation doesn't go deep enough. Should we be talking just about prevention or should we be spending some time exploring what makes children resilient? I'd love to think that we can "prevent" all bullying. With a lot more work and dare I say, money, I definitely think we can change the balance in schools and homes...but kids will always face the challenge of mean behavior.
So what's the difference between the child/teen that carries the hurt with them forever and the person that not only survives but thrives? I've talked with 80 year olds that tell me that the hurt stuck with them for their whole lives and the negative experience had somehow formed them. That's how deep the silent pain hides in the soul. What if that long tail of pain could have been blunted? What if their ability to become resilient was nurtured?
The subject of resilience is as intricate as the topic of bullying but it deserves it's day in the sun.
I highly recommend reading Carolyn George's article "18 Things Highly Creative People Do Differently in the Huffington Post.
Many of the most iconic stories and songs of all time have been inspired by gut-wrenching pain and heartbreak -- and the silver lining of these challenges is that they may have been the catalyst to create great art. An emerging field of psychology called post-traumatic growth is suggesting that many people are able to use their hardships and early-life trauma for substantial creative growth. Specifically, researchers have found that trauma can help people to grow in the areas of interpersonal relationships, spirituality, appreciation of life, personal strength, and -- most importantly for creativity -- seeing new possibilities in life.
When we allow kids to daydream, it nurtures their individual creativity. Their creativity defines them as a unique powerful person. When kids are allowed to go into "the zone," they are happier and more satisfied. It's harder to negatively impact a person who knows what makes them feel the joy of their own individuality. Creativity comes in so many forms...art, music, writing, sports, film, tv production, theater, even developing video games...anything that takes vision.
So here's a tip. Allow your children to spend time staring out a window or laying on the floor listening to music or curling up in a chair and relaxing. It's time well spent. Their creativity may sustain them for the rest of their lives.

(The No. 9 Duke Blue Devils face the defending national champion No. 3 Kentucky Wildcats on Tuesday at 9:30 ET on ESPN.)
Kentucky had six players -- including all five starters -- drafted in the first two rounds of the 2012 NBA draft. That's the most for any school in the first two rounds of a draft in the common draft era.
So how are the Wildcats ranked No. 3 in the AP Poll?
That lofty ranking reflects head coach John Calipari's ability to recruit wave after wave of the nation's most highly regarded high school talent to Lexington. He had the No. 2 recruiting class of 2012, according to ESPN 100, and that might have been a "down" year because Kentucky had the No. 1 ranked class in 2009, 2010, 2011 and currently has the top-ranked class for 2013. This year's class is the fourth straight year that Calipari has at least four of the top 100 recruits in the country.
That recruiting success is paying off on the the court. Calipari has won 103 games in three-plus seasons at Kentucky. The Wildcats' 103 wins are the most in Division I since Calipari took over in Lexington. (The only other school with at least 100 wins is Kansas.) Coach Mike Krzyzewski and Duke have the third-most wins over that span with 95.
Most Wins Men's D-I History
Kyle Wiltjer is the only returning player for Kentucky who averaged more than five minutes per game last season. Wiltjer shot 45.8 percent on catch-and-shoot plays last season, good for fifth in the SEC.
Largely because of the talent around him, Wiltjer excelled on unguarded catch-and-shoot plays, attempting 45 of his 71 catch-and-shoot field goals while unguarded. When he was unguarded last season, Wiltjer shot better than 50 percent from the floor and 50 percent behind the 3-point line. When guarded, Wiltjer's shooting percentage dropped to 34.6 and made only 36 percent of his 3s.
While Kentucky lost all five starters from last season, Duke lost just one -- Austin Rivers.
Senior Mason Plumlee had three offensive rebounds in Duke's season-opening win against Georgia State. Last season he ranked fifth in the ACC averaging 2.9 offensive rebounds per game. The question this season will be can he convert those offensive boards into points?
According to Statsheet.com, Plumlee shot 41.7 percent on put-back plays in 2011-12, which ranked 57th out of 66 ACC players with at least 10 such plays.
On the perimeter for Duke, Seth Curry is one of the league's best deep threats. Since joining the Blue Devils in the 2010-11 season, Curry has made 128 3-point field goals, which ranks fifth among ACC players.
This is the earliest the Blue Devils have faced a team ranked in the top three since Nov. 12, 1999, when they lost to No. 1 Connecticut. Duke has lost four straight games against AP Top 3 teams and does not have a nonconference win over a top-three opponent since a 97-66 win over No. 2 Texas in December of 2005.
The Wildcats have won a Division I record 2,091 games. They are one of three Division I teams with at least 2,000 wins and Duke could be the fourth member of that club if it can win 28 more games this season.
Kentucky leads the all-time series 11-8, but Duke has won six of the past seven, including four of five with Krzyzewski as Duke's head coach.) Three of the past four meetings were decided by three points or fewer.

Unanswered: cannot insert duplicate key row in msrepl_transactions
We have an issue that our SQL Replication between our Application Server (holding 13 months of data) and our Reporting Server (holding 5-6 years of data).
Both systems are running on NT4, SQL Server 7 Ent SP3.
Our issue is that we used to run SQL Replication but then stopped using it, and used another method of replicating our data from the App Svr to Rpt Svr. However, we have now been told that we have to use SQL Replication.
We set it up as usual, but when the log reader starts up, it finds the 1st transaction and moves it into the distribution database, but it then fails when attempting to do the 2nd transaction with the error "Cannot insert duplicate key row in object MSrepl_transactions with unique index ucMSrepl_transactions.
We have checked the tables in the publisher db and they don't hold any duplicates, so I can only assume the key it is talking about is the key field in the distribution database, but this is a Binary field which I believe is populated by replication itself!! Is this correct?
If so, why is it trying to enter duplicates? And can we resync replication to fix it?

Re: cannot insert duplicate key row in msrepl_transactions
Are you doing transactional or merge? Either way it will kick off a snapshot first to sync it. I believe you probably unchecked the initialization when you set it up. But the bottomline is that you have two server contain different data right now so the replication will not work, yet if you sync it, it will erase the historic data on your report server. My take will be to let the snapshot replicate down to a new database on your report server and load the historic data into the database(not a easy task).

Belfast must get the correct mix in business tourism
Belfast and Northern Ireland's business tourism is a fast-developing success story and its importance to the local and wider economy is integral in increasing our reputation as a world class visitor destination. Conferences, exhibitions, incentive travel, corporate hospitality - even outdoor and individual business travel - account for a growing share of total inbound tourism to Belfast and Northern Ireland and key in our mission to drive not only visitor numbers, but vital tourism spend over the years ahead.
Directly and indirectly, the sector supports the development of our hotel, conference and events infrastructure, as well as our hospitality offer and choice.
It facilitates the development of inward investment, intelligence exchange and productive networking, while presenting the opportunity to demonstrate at a national and international level our areas of expertise and success.
As an emerging, competitive business and conference destination, Belfast has many advantages - not least the warmth of our welcome and our passion to exceed expectations - but it faces challenges in a highly-competitive, international marketplace.
To remain ahead of the race, we must remain competitive and continue to provide a good balance and mix of high-quality facilities and services.
Following Belfast and Northern Ireland's success in showcasing our ability to host large-scale global events - such as this year's MoneyConf conference - our local conference and events sector is thriving with optimism, increased investment and an appreciation and confidence that we can succeed in competing against some of the best conference destinations in the world. This ties in with a key component of the city's economic development strategy, to attract business tourism through major events and conferences, and evidenced by the £29.5m investment in conference and exhibition facilities at Belfast Waterfront.
Opening next year, the newly-extended and refurbished Waterfront represents a real game-changer for Belfast and Northern Ireland and allows us to bid for events on a scale not seen here before.
Given the growing recognition and support for the importance around the sector, as well as the ongoing public and private investment, Belfast and Northern Ireland's business tourism industry will continue to lead the way to sustainable tourism growth that tangibly supports wider economic and tourism goals, while providing new and exciting career opportunities.
From supporting 17,000 jobs within the tourism economy, to enabling investment in infrastructure, transport services and leisure and cultural facilities, a growing tourism industry ultimately benefits us all. Visit Belfast will continue to work closely with the industry to achieve the targets set locally and nationally, namely double tourism spend within the next five years, bringing a visitor mix that fills hotel rooms through the week and drives business to our hospitality sector.
Securing high-profile events represents a major opportunity for Belfast.
These conferences will bring global leaders and key influencers to the city.
It's our aim and mission to ensure that we bring the right business events to Belfast that not only benefit the city and generate significant tourism revenue, but can also deliver in the longer term - creating and sustaining jobs, enhancing our international profile and in improving the overall attractiveness of the city as a place to visit and do business in.
National Geographic sums it up best: "You look at where the energy spots are in the world and this is Belfast's time."
Gerry Lennon is chief executive of Visit Belfast

Have you been named estate trustee?
Would you like us to help you with it?
Traditional and regulatory methods allow estate trustees to charge fees under Section 61(1) of the Trustee Act .
• 2 ½ % of the total value of capital receipts of the Estate• 2 ½ % of the total capital disbursements of the Estate• 2 ½ % of the total revenue receipts of the Estate• 2 ½ % of the total of revenue disbursements of the Estate• Annual fee of 2/5 of 1% of the average annual market value of the capital of the Estate
Why would a $1,000,000 estate cost more to settle than a $500,000 estate if it involves exactly the same process and time?
My process allows a fee for service, you only pay for the services I perform and I work with you to keep these costs down.

McCourt set for Scotland

Pat McCourt is heading to Scotland with three clubs vying for his signature.
Patrick McCourt is heading to Scotland next week with three clubs vying for his signature.
Motherwell are understood to be one of the interested parties after the Shamrock Rovers ace formerly had a trial with Terry Butcher's side.
Rovers have put their entire squad on the transfer list and McCourt is bound to attract attention after resurrecting his promising career in Ireland.
"There's been a lot of interest in Pat," his agent Clive Hart told skysports.com.
"I expect something to be tied up in the next week to ten days maximum."
The Northern Ireland international originally made his name at Rochdale and Shamrock boss Roddy Collins is resigned to losing the tricky wide man.

Gemini SectorCreated by odanez (all)
Went public on 5/18/2016
Number of ratings: 34
Average rating: 3.5882 / 5
268 territories, 123 bonuses, 6 distribution modes
|2669, Gemini Sector.
The Terran frontier between the Kilrathi Empire… and the unknown...
This is an almost exact replica of the in game map of the original game "Wing Commander - Privateer" from 1993.
The map is split into 4 quadrants, and owning all systems, that are reachable from within that sector gives a bonus, and an additional bonus for all systems that are only reachable from another quadrant.
Every system is circled with a large circle. Within a system, every territory is connected with each other. A system consists of squares (bases) and circles (nav points, asterioid fields, jump spheres and other). To jump between systems, you need to reach the jump sphere to that system (see the name of the territory or follow the blue lines). There are bonuses for all bases within a system, plus for all territories in a system. All other bonuses can be seen in the middle of the map.
Review by Nathan on 5/18/2016.
Simply put, this is a masterpiece. Strategic, quick-moving and devilishly complex - this map really makes you plan and pay attention. Fortunes can rise and fall in the blink of an eye!
One minor issue - in Blockade Point Tango, the lines connecting to Mah'Rahn and to Lisacc should be reversed (the jump territory names are correct, but the lines are not).
Response by map creator odanez on 5/19/2016
thanks, I will fix the bug in version 1.1. Got a few other minor things to fix too.

Review by Ranek on 5/23/2016.
Intersting map, with a lovely, nostalgic artwork. It defenitely adds something new to the warlight map arsenal. Although it suffers from the same issue, most space maps suffer from - too much empty space, it is well done and should work great for most outer space scenarios. I like the idea with the sectors. Unfortunately super bonuses are a bit confused. Maybe you could use the coordinate system to determine their positions and the included territories.

It is really good map.
It is ok for 4 or more players.
There are separated bonus, which is very good for initial round0 decision.
Also there could be 1vs1 mini fight in game of 4 players.

Could use some polishing up in the matter of distribution modes but very decent for strategy.
Response by map creator odanez on 5/31/2016
In version 1.2 there will be 6 new distribution modes: bases only, one territory per system, one territory every 2 systems, and the 4 corners (start locations are on the extreme edges of the map), then top vs bottom and left vs right

You do remember these old times, where The Wing Commander Saga was state of the Art in Sci Fi Gaming in early 1990's... Hopping from nav point to nav point and hoping not to be beaten up by the Kilrathi. Here it is, the reminiscent map to get the old thrill back!

It's the default x-display-manager launched on boot; that is, the option the system uses in the absence of any instructions to the contrary (in this case I suppose via update-rc.d or something). This is in line with how the word "default" is used in contexts such as "default options", "default installs", etc, though it's definitely a bit of a jargonism - the word's connotations in (eg) a financial setting are completely different. If there were several clearly better options but none of them were available/successful, the "last choice" isn't called a "default" (although in a sense it's what the system is "defaulting" to), it's called a "fallback". > (I don't have a current unstable debian system with > X11 AFAIK.)

Fresh New Details on Zack Snyder's Illustrated Man
by Brandon Lee Tenney
February 19, 2009
Source: Collider
It was way back in August of 2007 that we first reported that Zack Snyder would be helming another adaptation of Ray Bradbury's collection of short stories known as The Illustrated Man. Obviously when Snyder took on Watchmen instead, we didn't hear much. However, Collider talked with screenwriter Alex Tse yesterday about his upcoming projects, including some new details on the direction he's going in with his adaptation of The Illustrated Man. Of the 18 stories in the anthology, Tse said that he's tapped 6 to be a part of the film, including the titular story "The Illustrated Man", "Veldt", and "Concrete Mixer."
For those of you unfamiliar with Bradbury's The Illustrated Man, it's a collection of short stories where the plots and characters of each share no connection with the other stories collected. However, the themes of the cold mechanics of technology, the psychology of people, and the nature of humankind are prevalent throughout every story. Framing each story is the illustrated man whose tattoos are animated and tell the tales contained within the book. There's no word if this same device will be used in the film, but, as aforementioned, the illustrated man will indeed appear in Illustrated Man. Anyone confused yet?
Tse also says that his script is set up as an anthology in line with Bradbury's collection, with each segment to be (possibly) directed by a different director - with at least one being Zack Snyder, who may actually direct the entire film should it move away from its segmented presentation, according to Tse. A lot of new details that don't exactly clear up too much with this project, but at least shed some light on how it might come together in the end. Bradbury's work was adapted in 1969 into a film directed Jack Smight that starred Rod Steiger, but thankfully this sounds like it's less of a remake and more of a re-adaptation instead.

Unchosen : The Memoirs of a Philo-Semite Hardback
by Julie Burchill
'They say you never get over your first love and in my case, they were right.
But, typically greedy, my first love was a whole race of people - the Jews.' Bristling with strong opinions and fizzing with wit, Julie Burchill narrates the story of how a chance discovery of her father's copy of a World at War magazine about the holocaust kindled an obsessive love that still sustains her today.
The book follows the course of this affair from her days as a rock journalist pretending to be Jewish, through her volatile marriage to a Jewish man, her public spats with anti-Israel writers, her dislike of Jewish humour but love for the state of Israel, her refusal to watch Schindler's List and other films or books that turn the holocaust into entertainment, to her attempts to learn Hebrew and eventual exile from her local synagogue for being to pro-Israel.
Unchosen is not a book for anyone who wants balance or an even-handed historical account of modern Jewish culture.
It's a spiritual autobiography turned up to the maximum, a book that manages to range from the movingly personal to the raucously outrageous in the space of a single paragraph. No-one else but Julie Burchill would have even attempted a book like this.
This is the subject that matters the most to her and Unchosen is the most difficult, most important book she's ever tried to write.
Fortunately for us, it's also the best.

EVERY night this week, as part of the BBC's Africa Lives season, Jonathan Scott and Michaela Strachan report from an elephant orphanage in Nairobi.
The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust has rescued more than 100 baby elephants and raised them until they're strong enough to be released back into the wild.
Tonight's rescue of a baby who's lost her mum is tear-jerking stuff. The little elephant is trying desperately to tag along with another herd, but they keep pushing her away.
If the keepers don't find her before dark she could die - but even if they do, a plane is no place for a traumatised elephant.

The price of gold climbed close to its record high on Wednesday with the precious metal boosted by its safe-haven status.
Gold hit a two-month high of 1,254.31 dollars an ounce on the London Bullion Market compared with 1,246 dollars late on Tuesday.
The precious metal had forged a record 1,265.30 dollars per ounce on June 21, propelled partly by concerns over the poor economic climate, before falling back.
"The rally from the late July lows of 1,160 dollars has been very powerful and it does look like the market is intent on taking out the previous highs," said Rajesh Patel, head trader at Spread Co in London.
"With reports of hedge fund managers increasing their holdings in the precious metal we still maintain our target of 1,300 dollars before the end of the year."

Liquidators have been appointed after the company behind a Blackpool market ceased trading.
South Shore's New Market closed down on January 17 when In Shops Centre Ltd went bankrupt.
The Waterloo Road market had been open for 35 years and its closure saw 20 stallholders lose their livelihoods.
Paul Flint and Brian Green of KPMG were appointed Joint Liquidators to the Liverpool-based firm, which operated 21 shopping centres around the country. Prior to its appointment as liquidators, KPMG worked with In Shops to negotiate the surrender of the leases of six centres back to their respective landlords, ensuring their continued operation.
A further site was forfeited by In Shops, while landlords at four other sites have expressed a desire to continue operations.
However, a further 10 centres have closed with immediate effect, including the South Shore market.
Paul Flint, associate partner at KPMG and joint liquidator, said: "A combination of rising costs and steadily declining income over a number of years meant In Shops was increasingly unable to meet its rent obligations.
"This ultimately led the directors to take the decision to cease trading and appoint KPMG as liquidators. We are pleased to have been able to work with the company to strike deals with eleven landlords prior to the company entering into liquidation, ensuring that 321 retailers can continue to trade and safeguarding many more jobs."

There's a rooster that lives diagonally across the street from us. Two in fact. My children differentiate them by the sound of their crows: one, they insist, sounds like he's dying and the other just sounds like a normal rooster, which may in fact be the sound of death to anyone at 5am.
I live in Asheville, NC. I moved here a year and a half ago from Philadelphia, PA. Before that, I lived in Raleigh, NC. And before that I lived outside of Washington DC, in Austin, TX, and I grew up in New Orleans, LA. Roosters were not part of everyday life.
I'm a runner- the lite version. You know when you try out an app for free on your iPhone and there's a banner on the thumbnail that says: Lite? That's me. Honestly, I am afraid to go to a real running shoe store (though I desperately need some good ones) because I'm afraid they'll take one look at my thighs and blurt out: "You run?!" Ok, so they won't say it out loud.
Anyway, I "run" just outside of my neighborhood which quickly becomes open pastures filled with horses, wildflowers, log cabins, and beautiful mountain views. And roosters. (Check out my photo gallery, Life on the Run, at the end of this post.) It kinda makes me laugh. I'm totally out of my element. There are no tall buildings in sight; I've traded them for trees. The horses lazily graze on grass but where I'm from, they were crowd control during Mardi Gras parades. I lived in fear of them.
God has a sense of humor. I often marvel at how different my kids' childhoods will be than mine. That's okay, I guess. It's just unfamiliar territory. My 11 year old son already owns a pocket knife. We see bears on street corners and in our trash. People go camping- for fun! There are no roosters in New Orleans.
It was a difficult transition at first, and to be honest, it still is sometimes. But here's the thing. I've realized how much I cling to my own paradigm, my own comfort, my own way of doing things. And I want my kids to live out of my own story- my education, my experience, my point of view. But God is writing each of their stories. And they WILL be different than mine. I cling to the promise of His faithfulness to them (through much fear), but that doesn't mean their story looks the same as mine. When a city girl moves to the country (slight hyperbole), God still remains the same yesterday, today, and forever. I'm in the grip of His grace (and so are they); I'm realizing this truth like never before.
And, if I'm really honest, those mountain runs are becoming beautiful to me. Except the hills. They're agony on the thighs.

Chelsea taken apart at Old Trafford; Spurs sit two points off the bottom after a late defeat at Wigan
Manchester United 3 – Chelsea 0 (Premier League, January 10, 2008) Park Ji-Sung had an early chance which John Terry snuffed out at Old Trafford. In a frantic ending to the first half, Cristiano Ronaldo had a header chalked off from a corner, only for Ryan Giggs (who had a brilliant first half) to deliver a second dead-ball that Berbatov flicked onto the back post for Nemanja Vidic to power home. (First half highlights here.) Just after the hour mark United pulled further ahead, Ronaldo freed Evra down the left, the full-back was given time and space to deliver his cross and Wayne Rooney planted the ball home at the back post. Ronaldo came close to scoring but his shot went narrowly wide. Chelsea never looked capable of getting back in the game, and four minutes from time United rubbed their noses in it when Dimitar Berbatov scored from Ronaldo's free-kick.
Wigan 1 – Tottenham 0 (Premier League, January 10, 2008) Jamie O'Hara steered a shot narrowly wide of Kirkland's post in the early exchanges at the JJB Stadium. (First half highlights here.) The second half was a dire affair, but just as it looked like the game would end in stalemate Ryan Taylor swung in a corner that Maynor Figueroa thumped home a header to earn the three points for Steve Bruce. (Second half highlights here.)
Leeds 0 – Carlisle 2 (League One, January 10, 2008) Danny Graham fired Carlisle in front after 26 minutes before Michael Bridges came back to haunt his old club with the second ten minutes later.

These Death Butterfly poems are examples of Death poems about Butterfly. These are the best examples of Death Butterfly poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
If you don't find the poem you want here, try our incredible, super duper, all-knowing, advanced poem search engine.
I feel a butterfly inside;
its wings are cramped within my breast.
The weight of flesh, o dull cocoon,
prohibits my free flight. At best
I only soar inside; my wings--
gossamer, light, remain untried.
I wait...I wait...until the day
the barred' cage is flung aside
and airy wings lift toward the skies.
I have felt this graceful creature
flutter faintly deep inside;
then, at times, so ardently,
I think no way will it abide!
It will be loosed! Its wish to fly
will push the bars of flesh aside.
Determined is this butterfly
to show its colors multiplied
and wing its way through azure skies.
The time is drawing near, I'm sure;
the throbbing swells within my heart.
The cumbrous cocoon, filled with life,
is bursting now, falling apart.
The butterfly is breaking free;
no more its wings will tightly furl,
but lightly spread upon the breeze
their filmy webs, gilded and pearled...
and, then, my soul will leave this world.

She Liked Butterflies
With a youthful spirit;
She laughed in the breeze.
Dancing in the wind;
Lighting on trees.
Golden haired child;
A laugh like sunshine.
Beautiful , free, and wild;
Artistically inclined.
One day she decided to fly away;
In a letter she said her good-byes.
When asked about her, I say;
She liked butterflies.
Her spirit now flutters free;
With her bright colored friends with wings.
Sometimes I think I can see;
Her… among life's most beautiful things.
In the summer when the Monarchs return;
There is always one in the midst of the rest.
Where they gather together in the wild mountain ferns;
Who appears to me as an honored guest.
Then she flies away once more;
For she was never meant to stay.
Like she did many years before;
To return another summer day.

The prayers we pray float to the sky
Each night before we dream
Carried above to the ones we love
On beautiful butterfly wings
A gentle breeze full of grace
Lifts them to the sky
Those precious wings say the things
So often on our minds
Invited in through the gates
Where streets are paved with gold
Where Angels trod and pains forgot
Just like the story's told
Far beyond the misty meadow
And past the tranquil pools
Where rainbows rise and white doves fly
My message waits for you
Landing on the precious flower
That you've become to me
I feel as though I'm half the soul
Of who I used to be
My heart is full of emptiness
Since you've gone away
I hope to catch a glimpse of you
As now I often gaze
When I visit to your earthly home
Your presence still feels near
As though you're on vacation now
I wish you'd reappear
A part of me went with you
The day you left us here
I only hope you get my note
And hear my butterfly prayers

When I was a child and my dreams were of gold
I always believed everything I was told,
my faith was implicit, my innocence pure
and magic existed, of that I was sure.
My old uncle Arthur was always in bed
his twinkling eyes sunken into his head,
he told me his stories of dragons and elves
that lived in the books on his library shelves.
On the table that stood at the foot of his bed
was an old leather box coloured purple and red,
and the lid was embroidered in threads of maroon
with the soft shining face of the man in the moon.
I asked him to show me what rested inside
and he said " Press the button, and open it wide!",
then up from the box with a deep whirring sigh
rose a magic mechanical gold butterfly.
It fluttered its wings as it gently spun round
Its beauty serene in the absence of sound,
and I was entranced by its magical flight
as it bathed in the flame of the candle's soft light.
As I lay in my bed with my head in a dream
I still could imagine the butterfly's gleam,
so I made up my mind to go back the next day
to watch the gold butterfly flutter and play.
But when I got there, the old house was in gloom
my old uncle Arthur was gone from his room,
and even though mother had tried to explain
I never did see uncle Arthur again.
That night I slept soundly, in dreams of delight
at the dawn I awoke to the morning's first light,
and there on the desk, by the side of my bed
was an old leather box coloured purple and red...

This is my life, don't you see
Pure jealousy has taken over me
My wings clipped and my neck broken
The demon inside of me has awoken
You left me heart and soul for the last time
Your words spoken as I caused the true crime
My body dies down and the cold breaks me down
Once upon my head, now on the ground a shattered crown
My lungs seize to take in more air
But i tell myself... he doesn't care...
I take my last breath and close my eyes
My heart says goodbye to the mournful cries
They all stand around and look down at me there
Some say I deserved it, some say is was unfair
An untimely death was one I was destined to behold
But this death was certainly... the most utterly cold
Hand placed upon my chest and my body dressed all in black
The memories of my in their hearts begin to lack
Lowered below the ground my body is taken
Never again for the butterfly to awaken

Circling above on a sun shiny day
The raven twirls within his dreams
Of horrors soon to be inflicted
Soaring in the skies
The Preacher reads from the holy book
Collections duly collected on chanted psalms
The raven above with a sinister smile
He knew god's plate was not full enough
Dark clouds from the east flew with the wind
Under the ravens command
As lightening struck the village steeple
Fire and brimstone, hell on earth
Humans who once lived by their daily bread
Became the bread of crows
Telegraph poles free to weep the news
As the crows feasted on the burnt flesh of our sins
The ravens' heart pleased to share his torment
Amongst the brethren of feathered dark angels
The greed of humans shall be ridden of this earth
Crooned the raven under the spotlight of the devils moon
All were dead, the children too
All but one lone poet, so it seemed
Arms outstretched, clasping at pen and ink
Dying, dying to tell this black tale
Now, in tranquility, lies the village graveyard
Somber, quiet, flowers cover the horrors
Of that unholy day, of the ravens sins
His laughter echoes, echoes the pain
It is said, in the heat of summer nights
Crows sing and dance
As they feast on the remains
Of us, all of us, poets and all
Beside the village in the swamp
On that a very somber twisted day
An alligator lazed upon the shores
She, the only witness, to this feathered fiendish crime
In stealth she watched, scales of justice
A billion years of Gods creation
She slithered towards the stench of death
Teeth primed for an easy meal
A baby, oh so small, shivering in a fog of illusions
Looked into the eyes of the raven above
She saw that hell may very well come from above, not below
She resigned her baby cries to eternity, momma dead and gone
The alligator, teeth sharpened by natures instinct
Darted forth, and jaws stretched, swallows the baby whole
Slithering back towards the swamps shadows
The raven provided this nights' meals gratuit
She spit out the baby, and licked her cheeks
Providing both substance and loving warmth
Hell may live above
Mercy and compassion may come from the swamp
High in the sky
The Raven
Lost this little one
The Butterfly smiled

I fly
Blood flows like a river below
I dance
Scattered bones
I dance
Crows feast on dead souls
I dance
The moon becomes full
The night becomes a stage
The curtain drops
I sing
Capella from the chapel of the stars
Andante so they all die a slow painful death
Inert bodies pile under the stage
I fly away
Who am I?
Am I defined by what is near in sight?
Am I defined by what I have done,
Or am I defined by what I could become?
Perhaps I'm of no use.
To him, or her, or I, nor you.
Or perhaps I'm too misunderstood to be defined,
And it is something like understanding that comes in time.
And if to the world I'm never shown,
Yet in my own light I've grown and grown,
And so I can know no happiness but my own--
The reason for my smile, to you, will forever be unknown.
I do not pray for the world to know my name.
For it and verse; the letters are the same.
And if a man should find his sorrow in what he reads,
I pray his pain my words to keep.
Should his eyes rain on my page,
Better tears than storms of rage.
And if a man should find his sorrow in what he reads.
I pray his pain my words to keep.
And if to the world you're never shown,
Yet in your own light you've grown and grown,
And so you know no happiness but your own.
Let the reason for your smile, to you, only be known.

She lay upon her bed of pain;
the chrysalis grew dull and gray;
the colors which we knew as her
were fading fast, so fast, away;
but, underneath the fragile clay,
we saw new colors burning through
of soul triumphant in its flight
approaching Glory's avenue.
It seemed we heard her spirit groan,
her frail flesh tremble beneath the weight
of wings fast-pulsing with new life
and yearning for the Infinite.
She's free! Her dewy wings soft-dried
by hovering angel's gentle breath
have lifted once, now twice they stir
and find the air: can this be death?

mournful cries fill the air
mother bird calling for its baby
eaten by the cat
mantis catches butterfly
I am sad: yet, that is
the way of nature
loud feathered thud
- flight into eternity
deceptive glass pane

Dedicated to Donald Duck
You are greatly admired
By the following
The deplorables
Kellyanne Conway
She will con you all the way!
Adolph Hitler
Joseph Stalin
Sarah Palin
Pol Pot
Vladimir Putin
Saudi Royals
Palestinian boils
Tayyip Erdogan
Rudy Giuliani
Mike Pence
Chris Christie
Fran Drescher
Denis Rodman
Jesse Ventura
Astor Mark Burns the fraud and con artist
Ben Carson, the brain surgeon who lost his own brain
Now that's totally insane
Bechir Assad
Kim Jong-un
Dennis Rodmam, Kim Dongs boyfriend
Gene Simmons, Kiss my ass
Zoltan Bathory, stop the drugs man
Loretta Lynn a hick with redneck whims
Bruce Willis is an actor and a racist with no car(e)
Jessica Simpson is blonde and maybe Trump hasnt grabbed her kitten
Sylvester Stallone will soon be all alone
Unless Donald is gay then a bromance is etched in stone
Illusions of self grandeur
Fantasies of men born to slander
Trump is a sleaze and con and a fraud
If you buy in, you're a chump and a sod
Stop and think, stop the drink
You have choices and diverse options
Build bridges not walls
In the end, together we shall all stand tall
Maybe not, then too late, we shall atomically fall
A narcissist and psycho of that it's for sure
He takes charitable deductions claiming he is pure
As he evicts the poor and mentally challenged
Who voted for him while being tossed out the door
Notes: With rights come responsibilities, although this is always a balance it seems we as a society are very concerned with out rights and much less with out responsibilities. I encourage anyone who truly cares to go and find a book called "Berlin Diary 1934-1941" and read it. First it's a personal account of the times, and any book that covers humanity and day to day life for me carries a more humanistic weight to the story, however the main point is this. Hitler said and acted very much in the same way Donald Trump does today. That educated men stand behind Trump as well as many uneducated ones, is sad, they are more concerned with their own careers than doing the right thing. Of note, The Bushes seem to have long before it was popular, distance themselves from Trump.

I do appreciate that you are here
but one day soon I know you'll disappear
into the mist
I'll fly on butterfly wings.
I know you see someone you think is me
but nothing's really what it seems to be,
it's just a dream
that flies on butterfly wings.
It's not that I don't care, you know I do
and you can feel it, when I think of you
and when I fly
I'll fly on butterfly wings.
White light.
All my life a bright light
all my life a sweet ride, on butterfly wings.
Always going my way
I will go on my way, on butterfly wings.
Out there
I'll be going somewhere
and I'm going to get there, on butterfly wings
Bright light
never ending white light
all my life a sweet ride, on butterfly wings.

Hi. If you are reading this letter, then i know my wife has chosen you. This is to serve as my last writing directed to you after my death. Please note she has never read this letter. I would like to welcome you and thank you for choosing her over all the beautiful women in the world. I hardly know you but I'm willing to trust and respect your presence in her life and that you'll bring nothing but joy. Strongly i hope you feel exactly the same as she does, after all she chose to give you this letter. No one can replace our love, but that does not mean you should build a bridge between my past life with her. Do not attempt reshuffling her heart, empathy, sensitivity or replacing what i planted in her heart. Our tree of love will continue growing. Please take good care of her heart as it's not billable.
Her tears of joy are always ready to explode. Every night has been a page in our love book. So please do not change the theme as you will be forced to adjust the ending. I so much wanted to continue writing our book but i had to off ramp my journey with her as the cancer was forcefully blocking my way. She doesn't know that. My fingerprints on her smiles never got damaged and the footsteps i wrote on her body never sounded fictional. If you look at the corner of her lips she owns no dark secrets. She gets rewarded for every risk she puts her family in. Her wheelchair has never had a flat tire, but if it does please contact bible services on psalm they fix everything.
What i noticed is that she loved checking up the Christianity call centres within the bible phone book. The numbers will never change, only agents do so keep encouraging her to make calls. She used to randomly open the book and choose a page with her eyes closed. Even though she sometimes looked lost she always found the right pages. I hope it's not too much to ask, but please allow her to visit on our birthday and that's every three days before the New Year. That is the only time i could turn to the other side on my grave. Plus the funeral cover promised us non of its pillows in my coffin. Do not make yes an answer to every call made by my parents. We owe them nothing, infect i haven't spoken to them in ten years.
With all that said she will blow your mind if you let her.
Thank you

When you walk outside into the open air
When you look around at all the beauty everywhere
Think of butterflies fluttering all around
Filling the atmosphere from the sky to the ground
When you feel the wind across your face
Remember my love is all over the place
When you see one lone butterfly fluttering by with such beauty and grace
Think of me and the last time you saw a smile on my face
Remember the joy we shared in our lifetime together
The bond we shared was the most precious treasure
You are blessed with memories of our years on earth
Just as God blessed me on the day of your birth
I have moved on to a glorious place
But daily I am still blessed with your loving face
When you see a butterfly, think of me
That is my spirit flying high and free
I watch over you my dear loved ones, each day and night
I am so proud of your choices to live your life right
My love for all of you will continue to flow
I miss throwing my arms around you more than you know
I am flying with Angels in the Heaven's above
We watch over you always and send down our love
Look for the butterflies with colors so bright
For they host the spirits of loved ones now out of sight
You must keep your chin up and take care of yourself
But remember God sends His Angels to sometimes help
When you least expect it, at a time of great need
That's when an Angel appears to do a good deed
Keep your eyes open and be prepared
Great blessings will be upon you when you're least aware
Watch for the butterflies as they flutter around
They will soon appear in your life when they are less likely to be found
My heart is with you as I watch from afar
Angels walk with you wherever you are
Trust in my word and know that many blessings are upon you
For God has sent Angels who will help you through
Hold memories close and cherish those in your life with love
Trust in my word and in the Lord above

Your Majesty
Waving a white glove
Watching red barge on the River
Easing the Thames
Skipper's dream for ever
As You are up to the top
In Pageant Canaletto scene
Bridging London and Venice
People's Joy and Hope for the future
Ringing the 8 bells on the Belfrey
Announcing worldly water Storms
That will open the doors still ajar
From St.Paul's Cathedral to Big Ben
No mercy nor sympathy for the evil
Greeting the iconic landmarks
From the London-Paris Eye
Like a Mermaid One
among the Trinity Five Hundreds
on behalf of all
Outside the Towers of London
Saluted and respected
Drops of rain to wash some away
Along the banks of our rivers
in steady progress

I look through the dark where the rockets are soaring,
and go through another bleak Fourth of July,
remembering summer and when it was raining.
Forgetting you is a lame butterfly.
I do not feel cold, nor a warm wind, if blowing,
I've emptied my mind of our seasonal high;
flamingos are dancing sky rockets are bursting,
If I could forget, I'd never know why.
I look to the heavens where your face is smiling,
ten thousands of sparklers have lighted the sky,
I feel your percussion. You go on forever.
Forgetting you is to make love a lie.
The more I forget you the more I remember
sweet smelling of rain on our Fourth of July.
There's got to be somewhere we won't be forbidden
Forgetting you. It's a lame butterfly.

Children Of The Holocaust
There are butterflies in heaven;
With numbers tattooed on their arm.
Dancing in the gentle breeze;
Free from Hitler's death farm.
Little Jewish children;
Who knew their lives would end;
Carved butterflies in Auschwitz;
Predicting their spirits would transcend.
What could butterflies have ever done;
To deserve such a cruel fate?
For Nazi soldiers to kill them;
Out of prejudice and hate.
Such suffering for any child;
Oh how my heart cries!
For the smallest victims of holocaust;
And beautiful butterflies.

Let's opinion be different so there is story
I do not like to air criticism
I just only like to ask
And the question itself will be criticism
Criticism on people who were asked
If to ask would be more prudent
Criticism is quite violent
I am so afraid of violence
I have to use the technique
Technique to ask with its critique
And that is certainly more painful
Like a snake that run along quiet
But the extract of poison is very painful
I also laughed when criticism aired among
True indeed…

Biarkan pendapat itu berbeza jadi ada cerita
Aku tidak suka berkritik
Aku suka sahaja betanya
Dan pertanyaan itu sendiri akan jadi kritikan
Kritikan pada orang yang ditanya
Kalau bertanya akan lebih berhemah
Mengkritik itu agak keras
Aku sangat takut kekerasan
Aku kena menggunakan teknik
Teknik bertanya dengan kritikan bersamanya
Dan yang pastinya itu lebih pedih
Ibarat ular yang menyusur tenang
Tetapi bisanya sangat pedih
Aku juga tertawa bila berkritikan sesama
Benar belaka…

I simply love being me
for I am so good at everything
step into my city and they
will tell you who is King
one day when I am hungry
I will swallow everything
then and only then shall I
inherit the stuff I dream
even then I promise
not to settle for satisfaction
at any instant half a second
I could spring into full action
so go against me? please,
you do not even measure
up to half of the goodness
that I hold tight like my treasure
still spreading rumors about me
to try and destroy my life
can't believe I let myself get beat by
a stripper and my self-intended knife
try and say I'm gay
even though we both know that isn't the truth
just ask any woman I been with
if they ever needed proof
they'll say I was the cream of the crop
as they took it all night knowing
I just may never stop
I own the status of a legend
now what you got left to say
when I bring it twenty-four seven?

Here bathed under the flourescent light I sat alone....
Fingers moving rapidly to punch out these words...
Eyes focussed on the tiny panel of lighted words...
While outside, a carcophony of sounds from insects...
Here bathed under the flourescent light I sat alone..
Thoughts tumbling heads over heels in my head alone...
Phrases take form and pander to the thoughts that's mine..
As I struggled to organise jumbled thoughts into line..
Here bathed under the flourescent light I sat alone...
The night gets cold amd how I wished I was not alone..
A kindred soul is who I seek, it matters not from where..
To share thoughts and feelings, here and elsewhere...
Here bathed under the flourescent light I sat alone...
Having doubts that I can continue life, single and all alone...
At work and in play, I have scaled the heights and the lows..
But come nightfall, who goes and who gets to stay I cannot say...

I do appreciate you being here
but you should know I'll slowly disappear
into the mist
I'll fly on butterfly wings.
I know you see someone you think is me
but nothing's really what it seems to be,
it's just a dream
that flies on butterfly wings.
White light.
Never ending bright light
all my life a sweet ride, on butterfly wings.
Always going my way
I'll keep going my way, on butterfly wings.
Out there
I'll be going somewhere
and I'm going to get there, on butterfly wings
Bright light
never ending white light
all my life a sweet ride, on butterfly wings.
It's not that I don't care, you know I do
and you can feel it, when I think of you
and when I fly
I'll fly on butterfly wings.

No one knew it was coming,
No one knew that you'll be leaving
No one knew you were hurting,
No one knew you were dying.
Amongst the bright lights of the festivity,
Yours slowly starts to fade,
It hurts more to know the reality
That nothing can ever be done or said
Memories of my hands holding your tiny body
And memories of when I saved your life
I thought everything will be steady
But now, you've left our family.
I feel so shallow
As despair starts to swallow
Guilt starts to follow…
I feel so hallow
I wish there was more time to be with you
Turn back time so I won't cry like this
Keep you close to me,
At least before you close your eyes.
What's so hard is I can't ever deny
Is the fact that I
Wasn't even by your side
At least to say goodbye.
Outside, the stars shine
The winds sighs,
In your humble grave you lie,
There goes the white butterfly
So for tonight I'll cry

Her nature was gentle, and as soft as the rain
A butterfly so fragile, with procelin skin
Fragrant blossom, nectar sweet
Bathed in humbled innocence...
Entrapment came regaled in white
With western charms, this wasp would sting
He picked this budding branch with false intent
His kisses spent, upon her dainty cheeks
So into bliss she flew, caught by wily arms
and promises of love, with no intent to keep
With fickle breath he stole her heart
And played the part without a thought, without a care
He was an actor upon this stage....the cage
a nuptial made as thin as air
He said farewell, with lies and smiles
To sail awhile, across the rolling seas
Leaving needles in her heart
Her frail wings pierced upon the day
And when those falsehoods sailed, her love impaled
While far away, he spent his charms in other arms
Her face would stare upon the tides
Her eyes would cry soliloquies
Her song would yearn...would he return?
Her trust swept into waves...
And then a year or more would pass,
The child she bore, stood by her side...
And still love lasts, and while she waits, the ocean breeze
would carry on, those restless seas, the haunting song ....
Would carry on and on....she calls.........she calls his name...
With futile hopes to ease her pain
Her shame to learn the truth, and then to finally learn
Another shore......another bride!!
Another shore......another bed......to learn such truth...the final dread!
She cannot lift her head...the loss....the pain.....! OH! Hide thy face!
Oh! Such disgrace...an honor black with shame
What cannot be erased.......too much is dead!
Her death will free the fragile wings
Upon her knees, the final bend
By her own hand......her father's knife
Will take the life of Butterfly. BUTTERFLY!! Butterfly! ....butterfly!....
("Man's love of his life a thing apart............'Tis woman's whole existence")

Whenever I think of you
I wonder what am I to do
Standing on the ledge
Leaning into the edge
Arms unfurl
Into another world
Falling for the ground
Soaring into the sound
I smile
A million butterflies
Wing me ever so high
Into a realm of dreams
Into a calm of extremes
A million butterflies
Floating through the skies
I speak your name
I keep your flame
A million butterflies
Lay me down by your side
Waving my arms in command
A million butterflies understand
They swirl and swoon away
Like diamonds in the sun's rays
I feel the softness of their breeze
It sets my heart at ease
I stare
I look into your eyes of stone
I see you here but am I alone
Pale and cold is your hand
Against the grander of wonderland
Where flowers tower towards the sky
Rainbows begin when unicorns cry
Jewels sparkle as pebbles on the beach
Everything you desire but out of reach
You shake your finger in my face
Your eyes inform me I'm out of place
My soul's light turns to shade
My spirit's flame softly fades
Tears of red my eyes shed
My heart empties from tears I bled
I feel your hands through my heart
My soul's light you turn dark
Kissing me tenderly upon my lips
Closing my eyes I feel the nip
Of millions of millions of butterflies
Millions of millions of butterflies
Lifting me into their sweep
They carry me upon my feet
Swirling twirling into the wind
Hurling me back to begin
Pressing my soul to the ledge
Pushing me from the edge
Pulling me back from end
Placing me within again
I see
Millions and millions of butterflies
Winging dark the day's sky
Millions and millions of butterflies
Fluttering fluttering waving bye
Between hello and goodbye
That is where memories lie
Fluttering fluttering waving bye
Millions of millions of butterflies
Into the gold of the sun
Melting for their time is done
Millions my millions of butterflies
I shed a tear accepting goodbye
Whenever I think of you
Whenever I think of you
I awake into a dream
I awake into a dream
From our first hello to our last goodbye

As I rise this day,
thoughts of you go through my mind.
I thank you for another day,
I pray I can do things your way.
The winter is in full bloom Lord,
the chill in the air today is cutting
through the trees,
The branches are crisp and the sky is cloudy,
I pray the day is warmed by your touch,
Lord,I love you so much.
The day is beginning now,
help me to live a life today
that glorifys thy name.

In the shadow of the passing and in swing of eternity,
you said Life.
By the wings, you stepped flying through the path without mercy
and through the path of a happiness,
you protected your the most dearest ones,
brothers and sisters, daughters and sons,
and all their life companions
and your dear grandchildren.
You're leaving a trace etched like a golden thread
waving in the eternity
for all coming generations,
your proud blood.
That Proud Blood today is standing tall here and testify
about majesty, about you, holding head straight
in such heavy time,
in time where your story ends
but it's giving a hope and defies the future.
So Butterfly Of Life, my grandma, wave strongly your wings
for the last time, because your Life,
by a testimony of the presents, will stay written
in Our Hearts, on The Wall Of The Happiness,
where Giants rest in peace,
till The End Of Time.

A silent wave rushing inside my heart
Your hand leading me so far we won't depart
Your voice I heard in away that's taking me far
Into a silent wave rushing inside my heart.
Oh the thrill it was to hear
your voice so silent as I opened up to you
so wonderful this silent wave rushing inside my heart
I was searching for a answer to a question for so long
there it was a silent wave rushing inside my heart
Your voice Lord, in ways I never found
a silent whisper so very loud
inside my heart the silent wave replied
to me your love is so divine..
So when the shattered dreams are filling your mind
please please listen to the silent wave rushing inside your heart.

My battery fully charged
the week is brand new
all the lost loved ones
are telling me thank you
for bringing them to life
in my memory yesterday
now I am ready
to win in any way
and nothing can hold me
back from my dreams
people are staring
in utter disbelief
they think the devil
has contracted my life
little do they know
I took the path to the right
and now I am reaping
the rewards in my struggle
so much so that now
I've reduced my enemies to rubble
and now I am standing
on the power of my own
alive in the jungle of my mind,
my kingdom, I'm home
to see the new dawn
and for all those now gone
I will always remember you
and your spirit will live on.

Trey Burton uses lessons at Florida as motivation for NFL career
Trey Burton burst onto the scene during his freshman season in Gainesville. After setting a school record with a six-touchdown game against Kentucky, he was built up as the next big thing after Tim Tebow. A dynamic threat, whose versatility allows him to play multiple positions, including quarterback, let the praise and attention to get to his head.
As the former Florida wide receiver is set to embark on his NFL career, he admits he wasn't equipped to handle the success immediately.
"My biggest disappointment was my personal inexperience in handling off the field issues," Burton told FOXSports.com in a telephone interview. "I needed to weed out the bad influences in my life.
"My sophomore year was a complete wreck. That year, I was really considering leaving and starting all over. Personally the things I let happen and the things that I was doing. I wasn't happy with myself. I believe I wasn't doing the right thing and I wanted to get a new start and lose all of the bad people that I met. I just wanted to be the real me because I know who I am."
Burton decided to stay at Florida because his younger brother Clay Burton was joining the team the following season.
The 6-foot-2, 233-pound wide receiver was humbled and spent the last few seasons focused on perfecting his technique as an offensive weapon. While he has ambitions of making the leap into the NFL as a slot wide receiver, he is more than willing to play wherever the team who selects him deems necessary.
During his days at Florida, Burton played a lot of roles, including Wildcat quarterback, running back, wide receiver, fullback and tight end. Although his priorities were shuffled early in his career, his preparation never wavered.
"I felt like I always prepared as well as I could, but I think the majority of it was my inner self and getting cocky," Burton said. "I was working pretty hard, but it was more of me getting cocky and losing sight of my faith that I have in the Lord and it was really the darkest points of my life."
Burton, 22, was originally recruited to play quarterback in Urban Meyer's spread offense. When Meyer decided to step away from the Gators, incoming head coach Will Muschamp employed an offense that was more traditional and fit the skillset of drop-back passer John Brantley. Coaches approached Burton about a position change since his athleticism was apparent.
"The thing I enjoy about football the most is the competition," Burton said. "I like seeing guys like Richard Sherman, who has all that heart. Call it what you want, but he has heart. It's real. It's genuine. It's authentic and not fake. That's kind of how I am. I let that go after my freshman year because I got caught up in all that stuff and I lost my heart and passion for the game. I'm just excited to get back to it and play again."
While Florida finished with a 4-8 record in 2013, Burton's beyond-his-years wisdom allowed him to find benefits to the adversity.
"Even though last year didn't turn out the way it was supposed to be, I learned a lot," Burton said. "I really took advantage of losing."
Over the last four years, Burton experienced growth away from the football field, too. He married his wife Yesenia in December and embraced the role of playing dad with his year-old daughter, Ariella.
"My dad left when I was two weeks old," Burton said. "I never had a dad growing up. I've always wanted to have a child. Now that I have my daughter, I'm never going to let her experience what I had to go through. It definitely gave me some motivation."
Burton remains committed to exceeding the expectations of NFL personnel and talent evaluators at the league's Scouting Combine next week. Days are spent working on the 40-yard dash, plyometric workouts and trying to plan for the interview process with the teams.
After attending some classes led by communication expert Steve Shenbaum, Burton is confident that he'll ace that part of the combine.
"He teaches you different ways on how to answer questions," Burton said. "He discusses how to think about the question, how to react to it and how to respond. It's small, simple things that make the interview process go much smoother."
Without any regrets, Burton is extremely humbled after his time in Gainesville and devotes his life to his family and Christian faith.
"I know that everything happens for a reason," Burton said.

First, why are you having such mood swings? I know the answer: You're bipolar!
Seriously, why? Are you on meds? If so, then they ain't the right ones!!! Didn't your psychologist have a pdoc write meds for you? Counseling certainly isn't going to really help the situation, with meds, fine, but not without!!!
There is really no way to have anybody understand mania; they can't possibly. The best you can hope for is that they learn all they can about the illness, what to look for, and to be supportive. It's really too much to ask if you aren't on meds, or if you don't keep a handle on the swings with your doc as often as you need to. Don't ever let yourself get too far from stable without calling your doc. If he/she makes you feel like you're a pain, change docs. Good pdocs all know the nature of BP is constantly changing, especially in the springtime. It's the worst time of the year as far as mood swings. Nearly everyone needs frequent adjustments of their meds. Don't be a burden on your loved ones by letting yourself swing and then expecting them to understand. That's too tall an order. This disorder is as much our responsibility as the doctor's.
Aren't you on a mood stabilizer????
What antidepressant are you on? SSRIs without a sufficient mood stabilizer CAUSE mania in BPs who are prone. If you are blacking out and having extreme rage, you are actually having some psychosis. There is absolutely no excuse for this. Have you told your pdoc?? You need a mood stabilizer and an antipsychotic would be a very good idea.
What are your current meds?
Well, the zoloft is the culprit for the mania and the lack of sex drive. What kind of a doc are you seeing!!??? He obviously doesn't know how to treat BP; only making it worse.
Can't you see someone qualified who speaks English? No more SSRIs (zoloft, lexapro, prozac, effexor, celexa and all the others). You need a mood stabilizer and if depression is a problem, Lamictal is the drug of choice for this. No sexual or weight gain side effects.
Tell me how you came across this doc; I will try to help you.

Great interview!
Susan and Jacquie, a great interview and great responses. "Death Legacy" not only sounds intriguing but one I MUST read. The cover is stimulating.
Best wishes to both you talented writers.
Thanks, Janis! Susan does a great job asking intelligent questions.
Betty, I appreciate you coming by.
I hope you do read DEATH LEGACY.
It's been nominated for several prestigious awards and I have my fingers crossed.
Great interview, Jacquie! I recommend everyone read DEATH LEGACY. And the INFERNO COLLECTION blew me away. And I love the e-book cover!
Hi, Alice,
Thanks so much for dropping by and for the endorsements! For those who don't know it, Alice is both an award-winning author and an outstanding editor.
Great interview. I'm looking forward to reading something set in the Pine Barrens--that's a great setting for a mystery.
Hi, Susan,
Thank you for stopping by and for your comment!
Super interview! For me, it's easier to write what I know, and where I know!
Such an interesting interview, Jacquie. It's so good to know more about your and the source of your excellent mysteries.
Excellent interview. You give great advice, Jacquie. You certainly have an interesting background. I hope that DEATH LEGACY ends up with some awards.
Hi, D'Ann,
Yes, your cowboys are authentic because you are a rancher.
Makes a person's books so much more interesting when a writer has personal knowledge of the setting and types of characters.
Hi, June,
Thanks for dropping by and commenting.
Hi, Gail,
Thanks for commenting. I hope my writing advice does prove helpful to other writers.
The Pine Barrens is such a great setting, Jacquie. I look forward to reading the book.
Wow! I've been out of place this morning and got to the blog late. Thanks to all of you who follow Jacquie and me.
Great interview! Enjoyed the questions as well as the responses.
I am big fan of Kim Reynolds.
The cover of the Death Legacy is intriguing.
Great interview, Jacquie and Susan. As you know, I recently read and really liked Death Legacy, Jacquie. Congrats on drawing the attention of some pretty big publishers! Well-deserved.
A very nice interview, Susan and Jacquie. Perseverance and persistance, yes--we need to hear this over and over. And it will be great to see The Third Eye come to full fruition.
Good interview. I just ordered Inferno Collection from B&N.
Thanks you all for your comments.
At 10:45 am, we drove out to babysit for grandchildren, an all day affair. Just got back to the computer and found all these lovely messages.
Thank you for coming by today!
Enjoyed the post, gals.
What a fantastic cover!! Sounds like a great read. :)
Thanks, Karen! Right back at you!
I know you've written a number of excellent novels with beautiful art.
