Eleanor Holmes Norton on Welfare & Poverty
Democratic Representative (DC-Delegate)
Provisions Relating to Earned Income Credit: Amends the Internal Revenue Code to repeal the supplemental young child credit and revise and increase the earned income credit.
Making appropriations to begin a phase-in toward full funding of the special supplemental food program for women, infants and children (WIC) and of Head Start programs, and to expand the Job Corps program for the year ending September 30, 1994.
A BILL to require the President to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to further the United States foreign policy objective of promoting the reduction of global poverty, the elimination of extreme global poverty, and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goal of reducing by one-half the proportion of people worldwide, between 1990 and 2015, who live on less than $1 per day.
REQUIREMENT TO DEVELOP COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGY: The US Government shall develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to further the US foreign policy objective of promoting the reduction of global poverty, the elimination of extreme global poverty, and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goal of reducing by 1/2 the proportion of people worldwide who live on less than $1 per day. The strategy shall include specific and measurable goals, efforts to be undertaken, benchmarks, and timetables to achieve the objectives.
Economic inequality is the result of two and a half decades of government policies and rules governing the economy being tilted in favor of large asset owners at the expense of wage earners. Tax policy, trade policy, monetary policy, government regulations and other rules have reflected this pro-investor bias. We propose the introduction or reintroduction of a package of legislative initiatives that will close America's economic divide and address both income and wealth disparities.

It says to solve puzzles without mistakes. What is a mistake? If I choose an object as a morph and it is not does this count as a mistake? Also if I extend time or use a tool is this a mistake?
Answer from: Argh
No, mistakes are only failing the game altogether by running out of time, anything you do on the way to winning doesn't count.

When the temperature is below freezing, the last thing most drivers want to do is hop into a cold car.
"When it's super cold outside, you know, I kind of need to have a little bit of warmth in there," said Keira Gibbs.
Gibbs admits she warms her car up while she stays comfortable inside, but she does take precautions to keep her car safe.
"I have a spare key, so I lock it and I have it locked and have the alarm actually going so that when I unlock it, it's fine," she said.
But even in this bitter cold weather, thieves are out. Police say two cars were stolen last week when the owners left them running.
State law says if a thief takes your unattended car and happens to crash it, you could be held accountable for the damage.
"Officers are a lot more vigilant about when they're driving through residential areas, convenience stores and box stores. The advantage to when it gets cold is you can tell when cars are running because the exhaust is coming out of the back of the vehicle," said Sgt. Taylor Schmitz with Metro police.
Schmitz says it is against the law to leave your car running unattended with the keys in it and could lead to a fine of up to $100.
However, if you have a remote that starts your car and you lock the vehicle, police say that is not illegal as long as you are on private property.

Perhaps my favorite piece this season is the Houndstooth Button Front Coat! Houndstooth is one of those classic prints that never goes out of style. I also love the shawl collar open-front cardigan, which is really casual and super comfy.
Metallics are always popular during the holiday season, so this metallic pullover is understated but on trend.
My dolman sleeve lace dress with slip would be perfect for an evening holiday party. Really chic and sexy but keeps you covered with the long sleeves and detachable lining.
And lastly my fab python print scarf! This would be a perfect gift for your female friends or family members, who like mine love a little animal print in their wardrobe!

Although misunderstandings about the definition of atheism have tended to come from theists, it is also true that many theists have recognized that atheism has a broader sense than simply "denial of the existence of gods." Included here are quotes from a few of them.
Definition of Atheism for Theologians:
Richard Watson:
Well-known for his attacks on various freethinkers, including Thomas Paine, Watson states in his 1831 book A Biblical and Theological Dictionary:
- Atheist, in the strict and proper sense of the word, is one who does not believe in the existence of a god, or who owns no being superior to nature. It is compounded of the two terms ... signifying without God.
Robert Flint:
In his 1885 book Anti-Theistic Theories, Flint notes:
- The atheist is not necessarily a man who says there is no God. What is called positive or dogmatic atheism, so far from being the only kind of atheism, is the rarest of all kinds. ...every man is an atheist who does not believe that there is a God, although his want of belief may not be rested on any allegation of positive knowledge that there is no God, but simply on one of want of knowledge that there is a God.
In a later book, Agnosticism, pubished in 1903, Flint said much the same thing again, concluding with: "The word atheist is a thoroughly honest, unambiguous term. It means one who does not believe in God, and it means neither more nor less.
Thomas Chalmers:
In his book Natural Theology, Chalmers states:
- Judging from the tendency and effect of his arguments, an atheist does not appear positively to refuse that a God may be. ...His verdict on the doctrine of God is only that it is not proven. It is not that it is disproven. He is but an atheist. He is not an anti-theist.

Luís Vaz de Camões (or de Camoens) (c. 1524 – June 10 1580) is considered the national poet of Portugal. He wrote lyric poems in both Portuguese and Spanish, but is best remembered for his Os Lusíadas, an epic about the voyages of Vasco de Gama, their connection with the manipulations of the Roman gods, the History of Portugal and the personal opinions of the author on subjects such as greed and jealousy.
Amor é fogo que arde sem se verEdit
- Amor é um fogo qu'arde sem se ver,
É ferida que dói, e não se sente,
É um contentamento descontente,
É dor que desatina sem doer.
É um não querer mais que bem querer,
É um andar solitário entre a gente,
É nunca contentar-se de contente,
É um cuidar que ganha em se perder.
É querer estar preso por vontade,
É servir a quem vence o vencedor
É ter com quem nos mata lealdade.
Mas como causar pode seu favor
Nos corações humanos amizade,
Se tão contrário a si é o mesmo Amor?
- Love is a fire that burns unseen,
A wound that aches yet isn't felt,
An always discontent contentment,
A pain that rages without hurting,
A longing for nothing but to long,
A loneliness in the midst of people,
A never feeling pleased when pleased,
A passion that gains when lost in thought.
It's being enslaved of your own free will;
It's counting your defeat a victory;
It's staying loyal to your killer.
But if it's so self-contradictory,
How can Love, when Love chooses,
Bring human hearts into sympathy?
- Rimas, Sonnet 81 (translated by Richard Zenith).
- Love is a fire that burns unseen,
Variant translations
- Love is a fire whose flame doth burn unseen
A wound whose aching smart we do not feel;
Contentment discontent with its own weal;
A teasing pain, though neither deep nor keen:
It is not liking more than liking e'en;
Wandering alone 'midst crowds that seem unreal;
Not to content one's self with Heaven's own seal;
A care that only gain by loss doth mean:
'Tis to be captured with one's own consent;
The victor to the vanquished here must serve;
Keep faith with one who on our death is bent:
How can its fickle favour e'er preserve
In human hearts consistence of intent,
Since to itself contrarious Love doth swerve?
- Collard J. Stock, Translations in Verse (1891), p. 30
- Love is a fire that burns yet burns unseen,
A wound that injures, yet without distress,
A happiness that is not happiness,
Sorrow that is no sorrow yet is keen;
'Tis rather not to love than love, I ween;
To wander among men companionless,
To deem no blessing that which still doth bless
And count that gain which but our loss hath been.
Love is a voluntary imprisonment,
Service to one who is not victor rendered,
Loyalty to one upon our death intent.
Yet since love to itself hath not surrendered,
How can its favour breed in men content,
Or in their hearts find service freely tendered?
- Romanic Review, Vol. 16 (1925), p. 298
- Love is a fire that burns but is not seen
It is a wound that hurts but is not felt
It is a deal of joy that is not dealt
It is a woe that maddens with no pain
A wish for nothing but that wish expressed
A walking solitary through the crowd
A joy with all enjoyment disallowed
A care increasing as it runs to waste
It is a longing to be held in thrall
The victor vanquished, laying down his arms
To serve one who leads honour to a fall
But how come that its favour can bring charms
To take possession of the hearts of all
If love so promptly contradicts its terms?
- Luis de Camões, epic & lyric (1990), p. 58
- Love is a fire that burns, but is never seen;
a wound that hurts, but is never perceived;
a pleasure that starts a pain that's unrelieved;
a pain that maddens without any pain; a serene
desire for nothing, but wishing her only the best;
a lonely passage through the crowd; the resentment
of never being content with one's contentment;
a caring that gains only when losing; an obsessed
desire to be bound, for love, in jail;
a capitulation to the one you've conquered yourself;
a devotion to your own assassin every single day.
So how can Love conform, without fail,
every captive human heart, if Love itself
is so contradictory in every possible way?
- Selected Sonnets: A Bilingual Edition (2008), p. 45
- Love is a fire whose flame doth burn unseen
Ah! minha Dinamene! Assim deixasteEdit
- Ah! minha Dinamene! Assim deixaste
Quem não deixara nunca de querer-te!
Ah! Ninfa minha, já não posso ver-te,
Tão asinha esta vida desprezaste!
Como já pera sempre te apartaste
De quem tão longe estava de perder-te?
Puderam estas ondas defender-te
Que não visses quem tanto magoaste?
Nem falar-te somente a dura Morte
Me deixou, que tão cedo o negro manto
Em teus olhos deitado consentiste!
Oh mar! oh céu! oh minha escura sorte!
Que pena sentirei que valha tanto,
Que inda tenha por pouco viver triste?
- Ah, Dinamene,
Thou hast forsaken him
Whose love for thee has never ceased,
And no more will he behold thee on this earth!
How early didst thou deem life of little worth!
I found thee
— Alas, to lose thee all too soon!
How strong, how cruel the waves!
Thou canst not ever know
My longing and my grief!
Did cold death still thy voice
Or didst thou of thyself
Draw the sable veil before thy lovely face?
O sea, O sky, O fate obscure!
To live without thee, Dinamene, avails me not.
- Luis de Camoens and the epic of the Lusiads. (1. ed.), Henry Hersch Hart (1962), p. 327.
- Variant translation:
- Then couldst thou leave, ah Dinamene mine!
One who could never leave the will to sue thee,
That now, gent Nymph! these eyne may ne'er review thee?
Why thus despised life so soon resign?
How couldst abandon for eternal syne
One who to lose thee did so far pursue thee?
And had this Main such might that it withdrew thee
From ever seeing him so doomed to pine?
Not e'en allowed me Death dour and dure
To speak thee, thou thyself the sable veil
Consentedst o'er thine eyes by Doom be thrown.
O Sea! O Sky! O my sad lot obscure!
What life can lose I that shall much avail,
If cheap I hold it in such woes to wone!
- As translated by Richard Francis Burton in The Lyricks (1884), p. 138.
- Then couldst thou leave, ah Dinamene mine!
- Ah, Dinamene,
Alma Minha Gentil, que te PartisteEdit
- Translated by Richard Francis Burton in Littell's Living Age, Vol. 149 (1881), p. 66.
- Alma minha gentil, que te partiste
Tão cedo desta vida descontente,
Repousa lá no Céu eternamente,
E viva eu cá na terra sempre triste.
- Ah, gentle soul of me, that didst depart
This life of discontent, so sudden tane;
Rest there eternal in the heavenly reign,
Live I here pent to play sad mortal part!
- Ah, gentle soul of me, that didst depart
Que levas, cruel Morte? Um claro diaEdit
- Translated by Richard Francis Burton in The Lyricks (1884), p. 80.
- «Que levas, cruel Morte?» «Um claro dia».
«A que horas o tomaste?» «Amanhecendo».
«Entendes o que levas?» «Não o entendo».
«Pois quem to faz levar?» «Quem o entendia».
- What takest thou, cruel Death? A day all-splendid.
At what hour diddest take it? At dawn of day.
Dost thou intend thy prize? Intend it? Nay!
Who willed thou take it? HE that it intended.
- What takest thou, cruel Death? A day all-splendid.
Esparsa ao desconcerto do mundoEdit
- Translation from Henry Hersch Hart Luís de Camões and the Epic of the Lusiads (1962) p. 111.
- Os bons vi sempre passar
No mundo graves tormentos;
E para mais me espantar,
Os maus vi sempre nadar
Em mar de contentamentos.
- Ever in this world saw I
Good men suffer grave torments,
But even more—
Enough to terrify—
Men who live out evil lives
Reveling in pleasure and in content.
- Ever in this world saw I
Transforma-se o amador na cousa amadaEdit
- Translated by Richard Zenith.
- Transforma-se o amador na cousa amada,
Por virtude do muito imaginar;
Não tenho, logo, mais que desejar,
Pois em mim tenho a parte desejada.
- The lover becomes the thing he loves
By virtue of much imagining;
Since what I long for is already in me,
The act of longing should be enough.
- The lover becomes the thing he loves
Mudam-se os tempos, mudam-se as vontadesEdit
- Mudam-se os tempos, mudam-se as vontades,
Muda-se o ser, muda-se a confiança;
Todo o mundo é composto de mudança,
Tomando sempre novas qualidades.
- Time changes, and our desires change. What we
believe—even what we are—is ever-
changing. The world is change, which forever
takes on new qualities.
- Selected Sonnets: A Bilingual Edition (University of Chicago Press, 2008), p. 70
- Time changes, and our desires change. What we
Os Lusíadas (published 1572)Edit
- The Lusiads, an epic poem.
- As armas e os Barões assinalados
Que da Ocidental praia Lusitana
Por mares nunca de antes navegados
Passaram ainda além da Taprobana,
Em perigos e guerras esforçados
Mais do que prometia a força humana,
E entre gente remota edificaram
Novo Reino, que tanto sublimaram.
E também as memórias gloriosas
Daqueles Reis, que foram dilatando
A Fé, o Império, e as terras viciosas
De África e de Ásia andaram devastando;
E aqueles, que por obras valerosas
Se vão da lei da morte libertando;
Cantando espalharei por toda parte,
Se a tanto me ajudar o engenho e arte.
Cessem do sábio Grego e do Troiano
As navegações grandes que fizeram;
Cale-se de Alexandro e de Trajano
A fama das vitórias que tiveram;
Que eu canto o peito ilustre Lusitano,
A quem Neptuno e Marte obedeceram.
Cesse tudo o que a Musa antiga canta,
Que outro valor mais alto se alevanta.
- Arms and the Heroes, who from Lisbon's shore,
Thro' Seas where sail was never spread before,
Beyond where Ceylon lifts her spicy breast,
And waves her woods above the watery waste,
With prowess more than human forc'd their way
To the fair kingdoms of the rising day:
What wars they wag'd, what seas, what dangers past,
What glorious empire crown'd their toils at last,
Vent'rous I sing, on soaring pinions borne,
And all my country's wars the song adorn.
What Kings, what Heroes of my native land
Thunder'd on Asia's and on Afric's strand:
Illustrious shades, who levell'd in the dust
The idol temples and the shrines of lust;
And where, erewhile, foul demons were rever'd,
To Holy Faith unnumber'd altars rear'd:
Illustrious names, with deathless laurels crown'd,
While time rolls on in every clime renown'd!
Let Fame with wonder name the Greek no more,
What lands he saw, what toils at sea he bore;
No more the Trojan's wandering voyage boast,
What storms he brav'd on many a per'lous coast:
No more let Rome exult in Trajan's name,
Nor Eastern conquests Ammon's pride proclaim;
A nobler hero's deeds demand my lays
Than e'er adorn'd the song of ancient days;
Illustrious GAMA, whom the waves obey'd,
And whose dread sword the fate of empire sway'd.
- Canto I, st. 1–3 (translated by William Julius Mickle, 1776). Cf. Sextus Propertius, Elegies, Book II, xxxiv, lines 65–66: Cedite Romani scriptores, cedite Grai! / Nescioquid maius nascitur Iliade. ("Make way, you Roman writers, make way, Greeks! / Something greater than the Iliad is born.")
- Arms and the Heroes, who from Lisbon's shore,
Variant translations of the opening lines of The Lusiads. Sir Richard Fanshawe's translation (1655)—
- Armes, and the Men above the vulgar File,
Who from the Western Lusitanian shore
Past ev'n beyond the Trapobanian-Isle,
Through Seas which never Ship had sayld before;
Who (brave in action, patient in long Toyle,
Beyond what strength of humane nature bore)
'Mongst Nations, under other Stars, acquir'd
A modern Scepter which to Heaven aspir'd.
Likewise those Kings of glorious memory,
Who sow'd and propagated where they past
The Faith with the new Empire (making dry
The Breasts of Asia, and laying waste
Black Affrick's vitious Glebe); And Those who by
Their deeds at home left not their names defac't,
My Song shall spread where ever there are Men,
If Wit and Art will so much guide my Pen.
Cease man of Troy, and cease thou sage of Greece,
To boast of Navigations great ye made;
Let the high Fame of Alexander cease,
And Trajan's Banners in the East display'd:
For to a Man recorded in this Peece
Neptune his Trident yielded, Mars his Blade.
Cease All, whose Actions ancient Bards exprest:
A brighter Valour arises in the West.
Thomas Moore Musgrave's translation (1826)—
- Arms, and the heroes of illustrious fame,
Who, from the western Lusitanian shore
Remote, unnavigated seas explored,—
Far beyond Taprobana's distant isle,—
And, 'midst the perils of advent'rous war,
With more than human constancy endur'd,
In eastern climes a mighty empire rais'd
And aggrandized by great and glorious deeds.
The great achievements of their martial kings,
Who spread the Christian Faith where'er their arms
Prevail'd, in Asia, and in Africa,
Idolatrous and superstitious rites
Extirpating; and those, too, whose exploits,
From death's oblivion their names redeem'd:
These let me sing, and wide extend their fame,
If to such themes my Muse may dare aspire.
Let the wise Greek's and Trojan's wanderings,
By sea and land, our wonder cease to claim;—
Let Amnion's fame, and Trajan's victories,
No more in proud and lofty verse resound;—
Let all the ancient Muse has e'er rehears'd
Yield to the greater deeds I celebrate:
I sing th' illustrious Lusitanian Chief,
Whom Neptune and avenging Mars obey'd.
Henry Christmas's translation (1835)—
- Arms, and the daring man who from the shore
Of western Lusitania's fair domain,
Through seas unplough'd by venturous bark before,
Sail'd on beyond the far off Taprobane.
Sing, Muse, their perils on the stormy main,
Their conquests wide for more than human might
E'en to the mightiest promis'd to obtain;
And that vast empire which to glory's height;
They rais'd in lands remote in darkest Pagan night.
And with the song, your fame, great Kings, be blended,
Who far around your faith and empire spread;
Whose heavy wrath on Afric's realms descended,
To whom sad Asia bends her humbled head;
And ye who, following on where valour led,
Heroes I your hand from Death's stern laws have freed,
Far as the sunbeams o'er the earth are shed,
Would I proclaim each bright triumphant deed,
If this my lowly prayer high genius deign to heed.
Name not the Trojan, or renowned Greek,
Sad wanderers over ocean's pathless wild,
Nor him who dar'd the Dacian wastes to seek,
Nor him of Pella, Victory's favour'd child.
I sing the Lusian chief—the victor mild,
Whom earth and sea acknowledged as their lord,
Search not the heathen page with crime defil'd.
Cease, Muse, thine ancient story to record,
Far nobler theme is mine, far worthier heart and sword.
Edward Quillinan's translation (1853)—
- Arms, and the men heroic of the West,
Who from their native Lusitanian shore,
By seas till then unnavigated prest
Even beyond Taprobane, and more
Than seem'd of human force the hardest test,
Through wars and perils resolutely bore,
Raised a new empire in a distant clime,
And crown'd it with a glory all sublime.
These, and the kings of memory dear to fame,
Who, widening out dominion, spread the Faith,
Afflicted Afric as a chastening flame,
And Asia, rank with the idolater's breath—
And many a warrior who redeem'd his name
By deeds of prowess from the law of death—
These shall my song proclaim in every part,
If Genius aid me, and melodious Art.
Let wonder cease at voyages of old
By the wise Greek and by the Trojan made;
Let Ammon's son and Trajan cease to hold
The palm for eastern victories displayed:
I sing the illustrious Lusian heart so bold,
Whom Neptune's self and stubborn Mars obey'd.
Hush'd be all praise that ancient Muses sing,
For later valour soars on stronger wing!
Thomas Livingstone Mitchell's translation (1854)—
- Arms, and the Barons signally renowned
Who from the western Lusitanian shore,
Far beyond Taprobane a passage found
By seas none ever sailed across before:
In perils great, fierce wars on unknown ground,
Meeting all adverse human strength with more:
To found midst people of a different sky,
A new realm that raised their names so high.
Likewise those Kings whose memorable deeds
Gloriously spread our holy faith and nation,
And to the wicked lands of sinful creeds
In Africa and Asia, devastation;
And those achieving by their valour's meeds
From the dread law of death their liberation;
Singing I will proclaim, both far and wide,
If art and genius be not me denied.
No more of the sage Greek, or the Dardanian,
About their great and perilous navigation;
Cease about Alexander ; wars Trajanian;
Of all their victories cease the long narration!
I sing the illustrious valour Lusitanian;
Neptune and Mars alike obeyed that nation;
Cease all that ancient Muse could sing or praise,
Another valour loftier still to raise.
John James Aubertin's translation (1878)—
- Arms and the heroes signalised in fame,
Who from the western Lusitanian shore
Beyond e'en Taprobana sailing came,
O'er seas that ne'er had traversed been before;
Harassed with wars and dangers without name,
Beyond what seemed of human prowess bore,
Raised a new kingdom midst a distant clime,
Which afterwards they rendered so sublime.
Also those kings of glorious memory,
Who, spreading wide the faith and empire's sway,
Went forth where Africa and Asia be,
Sweeping the wicked of those lands away;
And they, who, working many a prodigy
Of valour, death's own laws e'en held at bay,
Shall in my song be o'er the world displayed,
If art and genius so far lend their aid!
Cease now those mighty voyages to proclaim,
The Trojan and the learned Greek sustained;
No more of victories and all their fame,
Which Trajan and great Alexander gained;
I sing a daring Lusitanian name,
O'er Neptune and o'er Mars to rule ordained;
Cease all the Ancient Muse to sing was wont,
For other valour rears a bolder front.
James E. Hewitt's translation (1879)—
- Arms and the men of a redoubted name,
Far from the western Lusitanian shore,
Thro' seas where never prior vessel came,
Who further yet than Taprobana bore:
In danger valiant and in wars the same,
Exceeding what was pledged of human store,
And, among people of a distant clime
New kingdom built and rendered so sublime.
And more, the glorious memories of the kings,
The Faith, the Empire forth who went to spread,
And bearing upon Devastation's wings,
Through baleful Africa and Asia sped:
And those, by reason of right valorous things
Enfranchised from the law of death who trod,
I singing will diffuse on every side
If skill and art so far my effort guide.
Let the great voyages in silence rest
The learned Grecian and the Trojan made:
The famous victories be unconfessed
Of Alexander's and of Trajan's blade:
Since I rehearse the noble Lusian breast,
To which obedience Mars and Neptune paid;
Let all be hushed which sings the Muse of old,
Since rises other worth of higher mould.
Robert Ffrench Duff's translation (1880)—
- The arms I sing and that most glorious band
Of heroes far renowned, who did of yore
Embark on Lusitania's western strand
For seas where fleets had never sailed before,
And boldly passed beyond the balmy shore
Of Taprobana: neither storm nor fight
Can stop their course; above them all they soar
Triumphant, and by superhuman might
They raise their native realm unto its proudest height.
Immortal glories these! nor less the fame
Of Lusitanian Kings, whose guiding thought
Inspired their zealous efforts to proclaim
Their holy faith to pagans, and who sought
To bring the wild and savage tribes to naught
In Africa and Asia, men of heart
Undaunted, who undying glory bought
By scorning death. Such deeds in every part
My Muse shall spread around, if genius aid my art.
The travels of the sage of ancient Greece
Or pious Trojan shall not fix our gaze:
Great Alexander shall for ever cease
In all the world, nor Trajan's glittering blaze
Resplendent shine, for I will chant the praise
Of Lusian chiefs, whom Mars and Neptune fear,
Whose stern resolve all nature's power obeys:
The feats, which former Muses sang, appear
In paler light before renown of higher sphere.
Richard Francis Burton's translation (1880)—
- The feats of Arms and famed heroick Host
From occidental Lusitanian strand,
That o'er the seas by seaman never crost
Fared beyond the Taprobane-land,
Forceful in perils and in battle-post,
With more than promised force of mortal hand;
And in the regions of a distant race
Reared a new throne so haught in Pride of Place.
And eke, the Kings of memory grand and glorious,
Who hied them Holy Faith and Reign to spread,
Converting, conquering, and in lands notorious,
Africk and Asia, devastation made;
Nor less the Lieges who by deeds memorious
Brake from the doom that binds the vulgar Dead;
My song would sound o'er earth's extremest part
Were mine the genius, mine the Poet's art.
Cease the sage Grecian, and the Man of Troy
to vaunt long Voyage made in bygone day:
Cease Alexander, Trajan cease to 'joy
the fame of vict'ories that have pass'd away:
The noble Lusian's stouter breast sing I,
whom Mars and Neptune dared not disobey:
Cease all that antique Muse hath sung, for now
a better Brav'ry rears its bolder brow.
- Armes, and the Men above the vulgar File,
- Do rosto respirava um ar divino,
Que divino tornara um corpo humano;
Com uma coroa e ceptro rutilante,
De outra pedra mais clara que diamante.
- The crown, of heaven's own pearls, whose ardent rays,
Flam'd round his brows, outshone the diamond's blaze:
His breath such gales of vital fragrance shed,
As might, with sudden life, inspire the dead.
- Canto I, st. 22 (translated by Mickle); of Jove.
- Cf. Fanshawe's translation:
- An Oderiferous Ayre blew from his face,
Able to breathe new life in a pale Ghost:
A Scepter in his Hand, and his Head crown'd
With one stone, brighter than a Diamond.
- An Oderiferous Ayre blew from his face,
- The crown, of heaven's own pearls, whose ardent rays,
- Da Lua os claros raios rutilavam
Pelas argênteas ondas Neptuninas,
As estrelas os Céus acompanhavam,
Qual campo revestido de boninas;
Os furiosos ventos repousavam
Pelas covas escuras peregrinas.
Porém da armada a gente vigiava,
Como por longo tempo costumava.
- The moon, full orb'd, forsakes her watery cave,
And lifts her lovely head above the wave.
The snowy splendours of her modest ray
Stream o'er the glistening waves, and quivering play:
Around her, glittering on the heaven's arched brow,
Unnumber'd stars, enclosed in azure, glow,
Thick as the dew-drops of the April dawn,
Or May-flowers crowding o'er the daisy-lawn:
The canvas whitens in the silvery beam,
And with a mild pale red the pendants gleam:
The masts' tall shadows tremble o'er the deep;
The peaceful winds a holy silence keep;
The watchman's carol, echo'd from the prows,
Alone, at times, awakes the still repose.
- Canto I, st. 58 (as translated by Mickle).
- The moon, full orb'd, forsakes her watery cave,
- É fraqueza entre ovelhas ser leão.
- Reason blames, / Those who could play the lion amongst lambs.
- Canto I, st. 68 (translated by Thomas Livingstone Mitchell).
- Cf. Robert Ffrench Duff's translation: "Of crushing flocks of sheep no lion could be proud!"
- Ó grandes e gravíssimos perigos!
Ó caminho de vida nunca certo:
Que aonde a gente põe sua esperança,
Tenha a vida tão pouca segurança!
No mar tanta tormenta, e tanto dano,
Tantas vezes a morte apercebida!
Na terra tanta guerra, tanto engano,
Tanta necessidade aborrecida!
Onde pode acolher-se um fraco humano,
Onde terá segura a curta vida,
Que não se arme, e se indigne o Céu sereno
Contra um bicho da terra tão pequeno?
- O piteous lot of man's uncertain state!
What woes on Life's unhappy journey wait!
When joyful Hope would grasp its fond desire,
The long-sought transports in the grasp expire.
By sea what treacherous calms, what rushing storms,
And death attendant in a thousand forms!
By land what strife, what plots of secret guile,
How many a wound from many a treacherous smile!
O where shall man escape his numerous foes,
And rest his weary head in safe repose!
- Canto I, st. 105–6 (translated by William Julius Mickle, 1776).
- O piteous lot of man's uncertain state!
Variant translations Sir Richard Fanshawe's translation (1655)—
- O the perpetual danger which attends
The lot of mortals! O uncertain State!
That, where our trust seems to be anchor'd sure,
We are not safe, although we are secure.
By Sea; how many Storms, how many Harms,
Death in how many sev'ral fashions drest!
By Land; how many Frauds, how many Allarms,
Under how many wants sunk, and opprest!
Where may a fraile man hide him? in what Arms
May a short life injoy a little Rest?
Where Sea, and Land, where Guile, the Sword, and Dearth
Will not all arm 'gainst the least worm o'th'Earth?
Thomas Moore Musgrave's translation (1826)—
- What perils, numberless and imminent,
Ceaseless assail Life's mutable career!
Ev'n where we center all our fondest hopes,
They vanish like an unsubstantial dream.
At sea, what storms, what losses, man endures!
What cruel deaths the waves for him prepare!
On land, what sanguinary wars, what guile,
What wretchedness, what misery, prevail!
To what asylum shall frail man retreat?
Where pass secure the narrow span of life,
That placid Heaven, unruffled, may not launch
Its thunderbolt against so poor a worm.
Edward Quillinan's translation (1853)—
- O train of cares and perils without end!
O road of life whose pitfalls none can know!
Wherever Hope leads on with surest tread,
Some covered gulf awaits the mortal led.
What shocks at sea! What storms around him roar!
The spectre Death, how oft before his eye!
What rage, what strife, what deadlier guile, on shore,
And oh, how much abhorred necessity!
Where shall frail man, though he the world explore,
Find out some nook, some charter'd sanctuary,
Where Heaven will let him live his little term
In peace, nor launch its thunder at a worm!
Thomas Livingstone Mitchell's translation (1854)—
- Oh, slippery path of life, uncertain ever!
Where can we fix such hope as may endure,
And must life be so very insecure!
At sea such hardships, and such perils great,
Death near at hand so various and so rife;
On land such warfare, and so much deceit,
Such horrible necessity for strife!
Where may frail mortals find a safe retreat?
Where can they hold securely this short life?
Where are they not in arms, serene Heaven in storms,
Against such poor diminutive earth-worms?
James E. Hewitt's translation (1879)—
- Oh mighty dangers, fraught with gravest care!
Oh way of life, an aye uncertain field!
That wheresoever men their hope repose,
So small security existence knows!
So much of storm and havoc on the sea,
Before the vision looming death so rife!
So much of war and guile upon the lea.
So much of harsh inevitable strife!
Oh whither can a fragile mortal flee,
Where shall he hold secure his fleeting life?
That arm and wax not wroth the Heaven serene
Against a creature of the earth so mean?
Richard Francis Burton's translation (1880)—
- Oh dreadful dangers with destruction fraught!
Oh line of life-tide, never certain way!
where'er his dearest hope poor mortal hoardeth,
such scant security life e'er affordeth.
By sea such tempests, such sore injury,
with Death so often showing near and sure!
By land such warfare, such foul treachery,
so much of curst necessities t' endure!
Ah! where shall weary man take sanctuary,
where live his little span of life secure?
and 'scape of Heav'n serene th' indignant storms
that launch their thunders at us earthen worms?
- O the perpetual danger which attends
- Queimou o sagrado templo de Diana,
Do subtil Tesifónio fabricado,
Heróstrato, por ser da gente humana
Conhecido no mundo e nomeado:
Se também com tais obras nos engana
O desejo de um nome avantajado,
Mais razão há que queira eterna glória
Quem faz obras tão dignas de memória.
- If chaste Diana's consecrated Fane,
Rais'd by the wondrous skill of Ctesiphon,
To sacrilegious flames was sacrific'd
By Eratostratus, to blazon forth
His name; if such unholy deeds are wrought
Vain-glory to perpetuate; how much
More due is deathless fame to him, whose acts
Are worthy of eternal memory!
- Canto II, stanza 113 (translated by Thomas Moore Musgrave).
- If chaste Diana's consecrated Fane,
- Queria perdoar-lhe o Rei benino,
Movido das palavras que o magoam;
Mas o pertinaz povo, e seu destino
(Que desta sorte o quis) lhe não perdoam.
Arrancam das espadas de aço fino
Os que por bom tal feito ali apregoam.
Contra uma dama, ó peitos carniceiros,
Feros vos amostrais, e cavaleiros?
- In tears she utter'd—as the frozen snow
Touch'd by the spring's mild ray, begins to flow,
So just began to melt his stubborn soul,
As mild-ray'd pity o'er the tyrant stole;
But destiny forbade: with eager zeal,
Again pretended for the public weal,
Her fierce accusers urged her speedy doom;
Again dark rage diffused its horrid gloom
O'er stern Alonzo's brow: swift at the sign,
Their swords unsheathed around her brandish'd shine.
O foul disgrace, of knighthood lasting stain,
By men of arms a helpless lady slain!
- Canto III, st. 130 (translated by Mickle); of Inez de Castro.
- In tears she utter'd—as the frozen snow
- Mas quem pode livrar-se por ventura
Dos laços que Amor arma brandamente
Entre as rosas e a neve humana pura,
O ouro e o alabastro transparente?
Quem de uma peregrina formosura,
De um vulto de Medusa propriamente,
Que o coração converte, que tem preso,
Em pedra não, mas em desejo aceso?
Quem viu um olhar seguro, um gesto brando,
Uma suave e angélica excelência,
Que em si está sempre as almas transformando,
Que tivesse contra ela resistência?
Desculpado por certo está Fernando,
Para quem tem de amor experiência;
Mas antes, tendo livre a fantasia,
Por muito mais culpado o julgaria.
- And who can boast he never felt the fires,
The trembling throbbings of the young desires,
When he beheld the breathing roses glow,
And the soft heavings of the living snow;
The waving ringlets of the auburn hair,
And all the rapturous graces of the fair!
Oh! what defence, if fixt on him, he spy
The languid sweetness of the stedfast eye!
Ye who have felt the dear luxurious smart,
When angel-charms oppress the powerless heart,
In pity here relent the brow severe,
And o'er Fernando's weakness drop the tear.
- Canto III, st. 142–3 (as translated by Mickle).
- And who can boast he never felt the fires,
- Ó Rei subido,
Aventurar-me a ferro, a fogo, a neve
É tão pouco por vós, que mais me pena
Ser esta vida cousa tão pequena.
- O Mighty King! The perils of the sword,
Or fire, or frost, I nothing estimate;
But much I grieve that life must circumscribe
The limits of my zeal.
- Canto IV, st. 79 (translated by Thomas Moore Musgrave).
- O Mighty King! The perils of the sword,
- Ó glória de mandar! Ó vã cobiça
Desta vaidade, a quem chamamos Fama!
- O glory of commanding! O vain thirst
Of that same empty nothing we call fame!
- Canto IV, st. 95 (translated by Sir Richard Fanshawe).
- O glory of commanding! O vain thirst
- Não acabava, quando uma figura
Se nos mostra no ar, robusta e válida,
De disforme e grandíssima estatura,
O rosto carregado, a barba esquálida,
Os olhos encovados, e a postura
Medonha e má, e a cor terrena e pálida,
Cheios de terra e crespos os cabelos,
A boca negra, os dentes amarelos.
Tão grande era de membros, que bem posso
Certificar-te, que este era o segundo
De Rodes estranhíssimo Colosso,
Que um dos sete milagres foi do mundo:
Com um tom de voz nos fala horrendo e grosso,
Que pareceu sair do mar profundo:
Arrepiam-se as carnes e o cabelo
A mi e a todos, só de ouvi-lo e vê-lo.
- I spoke, when rising through the darken'd air,
Appall'd, we saw a hideous phantom glare;
High and enormous o'er the flood he tower'd,
And 'thwart our way with sullen aspect lower'd
An earthy paleness o'er his cheeks was spread,
Erect uprose his hairs of wither'd red;
Writhing to speak, his sable lips disclose,
Sharp and disjoin'd, his gnashing teeth's blue rows;
His haggard beard flow'd quiv'ring on the wind,
Revenge and horror in his mien combin'd;
His clouded front, by with'ring lightnings scar'd,
The inward anguish of his soul declar'd.
His red eyes, glowing from their dusky caves,
Shot livid fires: far echoing o'er the waves
His voice resounded, as the cavern'd shore
With hollow groan repeats the tempest's roar.
Cold gliding horrors thrill'd each hero's breast,
Our bristling hair and tott'ring knees confess'd
Wild dread, the while with visage ghastly wan,
His black lips trembling, thus the fiend began...
- Canto V, st. 39–40 (translated by Mickle).
- Description of Adamastor, the "Spirit of the Cape".
- I spoke, when rising through the darken'd air,
- Pois vens ver os segredos escondidos
Da natureza e do úmido elemento,
A nenhum grande humano concedidos
De nobre ou de imortal merecimento,
Ouve os danos de mim, que apercebidos
Estão a teu sobejo atrevimento,
Por todo o largo mar e pela terra,
Que ainda hás de sojugar com dura guerra.
- Com'st thou to penetrate the mysteries
Of nature, and this humid element,
Which to no mortal yet have been reveal'd,
Whate'er his merit, or his deathless fame?
But listen! Thou shalt know what punishments
For thy bold daring are by me prepar'd,
Which on the spacious deep thou shalt endure,
And 'midst the regions thou shalt yet subdue
By force of arms.
- Canto V, st. 42 (translated by Thomas Moore Musgrave).
- Com'st thou to penetrate the mysteries
- Ó quanto deve o Rei que bem governa,
De olhar que os conselheiros, ou privados,
De consciência e de virtude interna
E de sincero amor sejam dotados!
Porque, como este posto na suprema
Cadeira, pode mal dos apartados
Negócios ter notícia mais inteira,
Do que lhe der a língua conselheira.
- With what solicitude the King who wields
His scepter'd power with justice, should select,
To aid his counsels, Sages most endow'd
With skill and conscientious rectitude!
He who is plac'd upon the Royal Throne,
For knowledge of the high concerns of State,
Must, on the wisdom and fidelity
Of his chief Counsellors, mainly rely.
- Canto VIII, st. 54 (translated by Thomas Moore Musgrave).
- With what solicitude the King who wields
- Quem faz injúria vil e sem razão,
Com forças e poder em que está posto,
Não vence; que a vitória verdadeira
É saber ter justiça nua e inteira.
- He who, solely to oppress,
Employs or martial force, or pow'r, achieves
No victory; but a true victory
Is gain'd, when justice triumphs and prevails.
- Canto X, st. 58 (translated by Thomas Moore Musgrave).
- Cf. Fanshawe's translation:
- To trample on weak Right with a prowd Foot,
Presuming on the pow'r, and upper place,
No Conquest is: He conquers with Renown
Who dares be just ev'n though it lose a Crown.
- To trample on weak Right with a prowd Foot,
- Cf. also Nabuco's translation: "He who inflicts a vile and unjust harm by using the power and the force with which he is invested, does not conquer; the true victory is to have on one's side Right naked and entire."
- Cf. Fanshawe's translation:
- He who, solely to oppress,
- Nô mais, Musa, nô mais, que a Lira tenho
Destemperada e a voz enrouquecida,
E não do canto, mas de ver que venho
Cantar a gente surda e endurecida.
O favor com que mais se acende o engenho
Não no dá a pátria, não, que está metida
No gosto da cobiça e na rudeza
Dũa austera, apagada e vil tristeza.
- No more, my Muse! no more, for now my Lyre
untuned lies, and hoarse my voice of Song;
not that of singing tire I, but I tire
singing for surd and horny-hearted throng.
Favours which Poet-fancy mostly fire
our Land gives not, ah, no! 'tis plunged too long
in lust of lucre, whelmed in rudest folly
of vile, austere and vulgar melancholy.
- Canto X, st. 145 (translated by Richard Francis Burton).
- No more, my Muse! no more, for now my Lyre
- Fazei, Senhor, que nunca os admirados
Alemães, Galos, Ítalos e Ingleses,
Possam dizer que são pera mandados,
Mais que pera mandar, os Portugueses.
Tomai conselho só d'exprimentados
Que viram largos anos, largos meses,
Que, posto que em cientes muito cabe,
Mais em particular o experto sabe.
- So do, my Sire! that sons of famous lands
Britons, Italians, Germans and the Gaul,
ne'er vaunt that might of mortal man commands
thy Portingalls, who should command them all.
Take counsel only with experienced hands,
men who long years, long moons, saw rise and fall:
Many for gen'eral science fitness show,
yet the partic'ulars none save experts know.
- Canto X, st. 152 (translated by Richard Francis Burton).
- The Poet advising King Sebastian of Portugal, then eighteen years of age.
- Cf. Sir Richard Fanshawe's translation—
- Great Sir, let never the astonisht Gall
The English, German, and Italian,
Have cause to say, the fainting Portugall
Could not advance the Great Work he began.
Let your Advisers be experienc'd All,
Such as have seen the World, and studied man.
For, though in Science much contained bee,
In speciall cases Practice more doth see.
- Great Sir, let never the astonisht Gall
- So do, my Sire! that sons of famous lands
- Pera servir-vos, braço às armas feito,
Pera cantar-vos, mente às Musas dada;
Só me falece ser a vós aceito,
De quem virtude deve ser prezada.
Se me isto o Céu concede, e o vosso peito
Dina empresa tomar de ser cantada,
Como a pres[s]aga mente vaticina
Olhando a vossa inclinação divina,
Ou fazendo que, mais que a de Medusa,
A vista vossa tema o monte Atlante,
Ou rompendo nos campos de Ampelusa
Os muros de Marrocos e Trudante,
A minha já estimada e leda Musa
Fico que em todo o mundo de vós cante,
De sorte que Alexandro em vós se veja,
Sem à dita de Aquiles ter enveja.
- For serving thee an arm to Arms addrest;
for singing thee a soul the Muses raise;
nought lacks me save of thee to stand confest,
whose duty 'tis the Good to prize and praise:
If Heav'en concede me this, and if thy breast
deign incept worthy of a Poet's lays;—
as doth presage my spirit vaticine
viewing thee pace the human path divine:—
Or do'ing such derring-do, that ne'er Meduse
shall Atlas-mountain like thy glances shake,
or battling on the plains of Ampeluse
Marocco's mures and Terodant to break;
my now esteemed and rejoicing Muse
thy name o'er Earth, I swear, so famed shall make,
an Alexander shall in Thee be shown
who of Achilles envy ne'er shall own.
- Canto X, st. 155–6 (translated by Richard Francis Burton); dedication to King Sebastian of Portugal.
- Cf. Sir Richard Fanshawe's translation—
- An arm (to serve you) trayn'd in war have I,
A soul (to sing you) to the Muses bent:
Onely I want acceptance in your eye,
Who owe to Vertue fair encouragement.
If Heav'n afford me, this; and you, some high
And brave exployt; worthy a monument
Of verse, as my prophetick thoughts presage,
By what I see now in your tender age:
Making Mount-Atlas tremble at your sight,
More than at that of dire Medusa's head;
Or putting in Ampelusian fields to flight
The Moors in Fez and black Morocco bred;
I'l gage my Muse (then in esteem and plight)
You in such manner through the World shall spred,
That Alexander shall in you respire,
Without envying the Meonian Lyre.
- An arm (to serve you) trayn'd in war have I,
- Cf. Sir Richard Fanshawe's translation—
- For serving thee an arm to Arms addrest;
- Enfim acabarei a vida e verão todos que fui tão afeiçoado à minha Pátria que não só me contentei de morrer nela, mas com ela.
- I am ending the course of my life, but the world will bear witness how I have loved my country; I have returned not only to die on her bosom, but to die with her!
- Last words, as reported in The Yale Literary Magazine, Vol. VIII (1843), p. 115.
Quotes about CamõesEdit
- Aqui jaz Luís de Camões, príncipe dos poetas do seu tempo; viveu pobre e miseravelmente e assi morreu.
- Here lies Luis de Camoens: he excelled all the poets of his time. He lived poor and miserable; and he died so.
- Inscription placed over Camões' grave by Gonçalo Coutinho, as quoted in Poems, from the Portuguese of Luis de Camoens: with remarks on his life and writings. Notes, &c. &c. by Lord Viscount Strangford (1803), p. 22.
- The most beautiful epic of the Iberian Peninsula is Portuguese: the Lusiadas of Luis de Camões (1572), the great epic of the ocean, which sings of Vasco da Gama's voyage around Africa and the Portuguese colonization of the Indies.
- Erich Auerbach, in Introduction to Romance languages and literature (1961), p. 185.
- And this morning, as I sat alone within the inner chamber
With the great saloon beyond it, lost in pleasant thought serene—
For I had been reading Camoëns—that poem you remember,
Which his lady's eyes are praised in, as the sweetest ever seen.
- Elizabeth Barrett Browning, in Lady Geraldine's Courtship: A Romance Of The Age (1844).
- [Camões] is the soldier's poet par excellence.
- Roy Campbell, in Portugal (1957), p. 142, as quoted in Monteiro The Presence of Pessoa (1998), p. 22.
- Among the great Epopaea, which are constructed upon the basis of a classic culture, we must include the "Lysiad" of Camoens. In the subject-matter of this entirely national composition, which celebrates the bold sea-faring of the Portuguese, we are already beyond the true Middle Ages, and have interests unfolded, which inaugurate a new era. But here, too, despite the glow of its patriotism, despite the life-like character of the descriptive matter, based for the most part upon the author's own experience, we are still conscious of a real barrier between the subject that is national and an artistic culture that is borrowed from the ancients and the Italians.
- Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, in The Philosophy of Fine Art [posthumously published lectures, 1835-38], Volume I (Hacker Art Books, 1975), p. 190; also in Hegel's Lectures on Absolute Spirit (Thoemmes Press, 1999), p. 189.
- Luis de Camoens, the greatest literary genius ever produced by Portugal; in martial courage, and spirit of honour, nothing inferior to her greatest heroes.
- William Julius Mickle, The Lusiad (1776), "Introduction", p. cxvi.
- ... chantés par le Camoèns, dont le poème fait sentir quelque chose des charmes de l'Odyssée et de la magnificence de l'Enéide.
- ... sung by Camoens, whose poem has something of the charm of the Odyssey and of the magnificence of the Aeneid.
- Montesquieu, in De l'Esprit des Lois (1748) [The Spirit of the Laws], Ch. XXI.
- The perfection [Vollendung] of Portuguese poetry is all the more apparent in the beautiful poems of the great Camões.
- Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel, in Dichtkunst (1803) [Portuguese Poetry], as quoted in Cochran Twilight Of The Literary: Figures Of Thought In The Age Of Print (2005), p. 121.
- Sei, Camoens, denn mein Vorbild!
- Thus, Camoes, be my model!
- Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel, in Dichtergarten (1807), sonnet "An Camoens".
- Camoëns, en Portugal, ouvrait une carrière toute nouvelle, et s'acquérait une réputation qui dure encore parmi ses compatriotes, qui l'appellent le Virgile portugais.
- Camoens in Portugal steered a new course, and acquired a reputation, which lasts still among his countrymen, who pay as much respect to his memory as the English to Milton.
- Voltaire, in Essai Sur La Poésie Epique (1728) [An Essay on Epick Poetry], Ch. VI: Le Camoëns.
- Note: the translation cited above is slightly innacurate: Virgile portugais actually translates as "Portuguese Virgil".
- Camões soothed with it an exile's grief.
- William Wordsworth, in Scorn Not the Sonnet (1827), line 6.

A University of Montana employee is now in serious condition after falling through a skylight on campus and landing on a boiler inside the heating plant.
UM officials say 61-year-old Mike Burke was checking new equipment on the roof yesterday morning before plummeting through one of their glass window and that this was the first time a serious accident has ever happened at their heating plant.
UM Chief Communications Officer, Peggy Kuhr, says Mike Burke is the chief engineer and supervisor at UM's heating plant and that he was the only person on the roof checking a flue gas damper, before he fell through the glass skylight.
Missoula Fire Department Training Officer, Matt Kerns, says his 22-person team hoisted Burke, who was conscious, into a basket and used rope pulleys to lower him to the ground vertically.
As of now, Environmental Health and Risk Management has begun an investigation into the incident.
So far, officials have already determined Burke was not required to wear fall protection gear, because he was on a flat surface, and six feet away from the edge of the building.
Last we have heard Burke is still at St. Patrick hospital in serious condition.

Junior year, what a rush! I get butterflies in my stomach knowing that next year will be my last. I'm going to rule the school, I'll be at the top of the food chain! Of course, there are obstacles junior year: SATs and starting the whole college search. I'm aiming for scholarships and though I'm not as confident as I would like to be about the SATs, I am studying every weekend. I'm ecstatic at the thought of college, with a minor side effect of being a bit scared. It's a chance I'm willing to take.
When I think of college, I think independence! I want to attend a college near a city like Boston. I went there for a college fair with friends and it was quite an experience. I rode the subway for the first time, which was obvious to the other riders since I didn't grab the pole and as a result tumbled onto the person next to me. The subway passed through the city, which was breathtaking. I was constantly nudging my friend and pointing at the buildings. That was when I fell in love.
Growing up, I was very sheltered. I only saw cities in movies or on TV. The main reason I went to Boston was to go to the college fair, but I also discovered where I want to spend my college life: in a city just like Boston, or Boston itself.
When I got home I was very excited to tell my dad where I wanted to go to college but he looked at me like I didn't understand life. He told me that college life in Boston included violence, drugs and rape. In other words, it was way out of my league. He said that the life I had pictured was impossible: it was a fairy tale, and only that. This felt like a blow to me and the tears stung my eyes making me see the reality of life. I have to take off my rose-colored glasses and place them in a box, locking them up in my closet of fairy-tale dreams.

Crawfish for a Cure
Crawfish Boil...in Southern California? You better believe it! Each year, the Jensen family hosts the event in their backyard near San Diego, California. The 2013 Crawfish Boil occurs Saturday, May 18th and promises to be the most successful fundraiser and crawfish party yet! For more information or to watch the event via livestream in real time, click here to go to the 2013 Crawfish Boil event page.
2013 Jensen Crawfish Boil
The 2012 event occurred in early June and included 150 friends and family, all of whom came by for crawfish shipped in fresh from Louisiana, then boiled with sausage, corn, mushrooms, potatoes and some tasty spices. Live music from the band The Weener Pigs, a crawfish-shaped cake and some refreshments rounded out the event that is an annual favorite for many of the Jensen's family and friends.
Early this year, the family considered not holding the festivities after Taylor Jensen and her young son River were diagnosed with myotonic dystrophy type 1, a form of muscular dystrophy. But the family realized that as people learned about the diagnosis, they wanted some way to show their support and that this year could mark the beginning of a very special tradition. Their annual event is now a fundraiser to support the efforts of the Myotonic Dystrophy Foundation. "We saw a great opportunity to get the word out about this disorder and raise funds so we can help find treatments and a cure soon, and so River will never feel the effects of this disease," said Taylor.
The generosity of their friends surprised even the Jensens as they met and surpassed their original goal of $10,000, raising $12,020. Part of what made the event such a success was the silent auction, which included over 20 gifts from local businesses and friends. Click here to see the Jensen Crawfish Boil Donor List. Said Taylor after the event, "We are so blessed to have such good friends and family to help and support us in finding a cure. We realized we are not in this alone."

So I stand by the notion that we need to get better, and in doing so we need to set concrete goals for ourselves so that we have sort of specific conversations among ourselves about how we're going to get there." -- Mr. Alderson

Good Wednesday morning to you, and it's time to start thinking about a diet…
Weather: Clearing and colder. The storm system moves out of Alabama this morning, and temperatures drop with highs topping out in the middle 40s. Lows tonight fall to the upper 20s. It will be sunny and slightly warmer on Thursday.
Central Alabama dodges a bullet. The major severe weather outbreak on Christmas Day confined its fury to the southern portion of the state, as the cold front moved through the mid-state more quickly than forecasters first thought, which didn't give the atmosphere time to heat and destabilize. That wasn't the case in Mobile, where a large tornado moved through the downtown area and the suburb of Prichard. That storm played out on live television through tower-mounted cameras. However, no fatalities or serious injuries were reported through midnight in the Mobile area. Other tornadoes were reported elsewhere in south Alabama; damage assessment is still taking place this morning. At least three fatalities have been reported with the Christmas storms, all outside Alabama.
Veteran character actor dies. Charles Durning, who played everything from crooked cops to Pope John XXIII and seemingly everything in between, died of natural causes at age 89 in New York City. Durning was one of Hollywood's most versatile film and television actors, winner of a Golden Globe for best supporting actor in a TV drama and twice nominated for Oscars. Durning was also a World War II hero, taken prisoner in the Battle of the Bulge, and was awarded the Silver Star and three Purple Hearts.
Sports: Kobe comeback. Seems like it was just a couple of weeks ago that the Los Angeles Lakers were in complete disarray, floundering after a coaching change. But that was then, and on Christmas Day the Lakers extended their winning streak to five games thanks to a comeback led by Kobe Bryant, as they defeated the New York Knicks 100-94. Elsewhere in the NBA, Boston defeated Brooklyn 93-76, the Heat burned the Thunder 103-97, and Houston clobbered Chicago 120-97.

BLOOMINGTON, Ill -- While most carnivals wrap up by Sunday evenings, this Sunday, the Tilt-A-Whirl and funnel cakes were still heating up as the weather cooled down.
Fair Manager Mike Swartz says the 4-H projects supplied plenty of no-cost entertainment for families, including the animal Showmanship Classic.
"Nothing to do with the animal, but how they present it, and they're competing with one another, so someone who might be a dairy or a bee person is actually showing sheep and hogs, a species that they're not used to." Swartz calls it, "A lot of fun competition."
He says events like the Showmanship Classic helped make this one of the best fairs he's seen in his nine years as manager.
It also helps to offer free fun and discounts for late-comers.
On the last day of the fair, admission is free after 3 p.m., and you have access to unlimited rides for a $14.00 wrist band from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.
Swartz says it was a hammock week at the fair with surprisingly high attendance the first two days.
"Wednesday and Thursday were great days for us," Swartz says. "We'd normally think that midweek days for us would be slow, but they were big days for us."
Swartz sees the end of the week as sort of a rain delay.
He says those who missed Saturday came out it droves on Sunday.
According to one fair goer, Amina Owens, "I thought it was going to rain today, because it was raining last night, but to see that it is not raining right now is a big relief."

At only 10 years old, the customer ordering the venti caramel latte with whipped cream was just tall enough to see over the counter. Her dad, getting his morning jolt, picked up the tab. Specialty coffee consumption has quadrupled in the past five years and, though no one keeps count of the youngest drinkers, the scene above is becoming increasingly commonplace. Unlike beer, there's no legal age for drinking coffee. Still, some say it's not for kids. "Caffeine affects children's sleep, which can hurt school performance," says Charles Pollak, M.D., Weill Cornell's Center for Sleep director and lead researcher of a study that found teens consuming caffeine slept less and awoke more during the night. Studies have shown caffeine causes nervousness and a rapid heartbeat in some adults, but similar studies in children haven't been done. That's where some medical experts say the real concern lies. "When you have such widespread exposure to a drug, like we do with caffeine, knowing its effects is important," says John Hughes, M.D., a professor of psychiatry at the University of Vermont.

We had a great time on the cruise, meeting lots of friendly and interesting people. We did the Canarian Flavours cruise and recommend the Caldera trip on La Palma and El Cedro Forest hike in La Gomera. We also did an independant levada walk on Madeira, booking through Madeira Explorers which we can highly recommend.
All in all we had a fantastic week and cannot fault the ship and all its crew members. This makes it all the sadder regarding the tragic accident that occurred the day after we left the ship, our hearts go out to the passengers, but most of all, the crew and families of those affected.
