Reiners takes Pios' kicking game to another level
CROWLEY – High school kickers don't usually come up in the conversation about most valuable players. Don't tell that to the Notre Dame Pioneers, especially coach Lewis Cook.
"Dustin Reiners is an offensive threat for our football team. When you have a weapon like that in the kicking game, it just enhances your whole team. He puts a high percentage of his kickoffs into the end zone where there is no threat of a return. His punts are such that we are able to get down field and cover and that's a big advantage. It's not always about just booming it down the field."
Never was that more evident than in the defensive struggle with Breaux Bridge earlier this season where field position was so important. Not to mention his 20-yard field goal for the only points of the game, Reiners punted five times for an average of 44 yards with two downed inside the 20 at the Tigers 12 and 13 yard line.
His two kickoffs were into the end zone for no return and Breaux Bridge had an average starting field position of the 24 yard line.
"Coach Cook has had several talks with me about the importance of the kicking game and while I've always understood that, if I ever needed any type of reassurance, that game gave it to me," Reiners noted with a big smile. "Last year, I really wanted to get in more on offense. This year, I do realize a little more what my contribution means to the team."
That doesn't mean Reiners is quite ready to scrap his practice sessions in the offensive line. As the backup center, Cook admits to extreme caution when it comes to his kicking weapon.
"We try to balance his practices and I do play it careful with that," noted Cook. "I won't let him play in junior varsity games because it would be taking a chance to not have him for Friday night."
As a freshman, Reiners was thrust into action after a season-ending injury to then kicker and linebacker Conner Goss. Reiners finished the year with a 34.7-yard average on 14 punts. Last season, he was the only Pio player to put a foot on the ball and that will likely be the story the rest of this season and next. That means a lot of hard work both in practice and after teammates have left the field.
"We have certain times during the week where we go over our special teams assignments," added Reiners. "The return and cover teams all have other positions on the team and I work with the line during offensive drills. So, a lot of my kicking work comes after practice."
As a sophomore, it paid off for a 42.1 average on 43 punts with 14 of those downed inside the 20, six others for touchbacks and a long kick of 64 yards. He converted 45 extra points and made 3 of 6 field goals. Against East Ascension in the semifinals, a 20-yard field goal ended up being the difference in sending the Pios to the state championship in a 16-14 win. Cook says the team works on some phase of the kicking game every day in practice.
"We work field goals and extra points twice a week, punting three times a week, and some days we do everything. On Tuesday, we stay out after practice for extra snaps with punts and returns. They do have time during practice to work on their own, but Dustin still works at it after everyone else is gone."
Through five games this year, Reiners is averaging a misleading 36 yards a punt. The efficient Pio offense has only called on the junior kicker for 10 punts and he has downed three of those inside the 20 with three others for touchbacks. He has kicked off 27 times and 22 have gone into the end zone for a touchback without a return.
Reiners has only been called on for two field goal attempts and has made both. That's the result of being on a successful team that punches it into the end zone regularly. But it hasn't lessened any of the confidence his coaches have in calling on him when needed.
"It's the game situation that really determines whether we go for a field goal, but in my mind, the 25-yard line is probably the target for us to kick it," explained Coach Cook. "We work in practice from the 20, kicking from the left hash, the right hash and straight on. That's a 37-yard field goal and I want it to be automatic in Dustin's mind from that distance. He has kicked them from 50-plus yards in practice, so if we were in a tie game or down three or less at the end of the game, I would be confident to send Dustin out there for a 50-yarder to give us a chance to win or keep playing in overtime."
There may come a day in the near future when Dustin Reiners has to make a decision on his future. Former Pio kicker and linebacker Hunter Stover is now a kickoff specialist for the UL Ragin Cajuns. Reiners certainly has the numbers to attract interest from college coaches and it may require a similar end to split duties.
"I have thought a little about that and I am concentrating a little more on kicking now than in the past," Reiners admits. "Working out every day and training for both positions has made me stronger and that has made me a better kicker. I realize I may have an opportunity to play at the next level if I continue working to get better. Playing in the offensive line gives me something else to go to while I'm in high school and I would like to keep that option here as long as I can."
Notre Dame continues to win the battle up front on both sides of the ball. Defensively, the front four logged 17 tackles against Catholic. The offensive front sparked a 385-yard rushing night that had John Michael Besse and Brad Stoma running wild all night.
"Some of those runs were reads and some were designed for me to keep it," explained Stoma. "When we ran play-action across the corner they would usually bite on the handoff because we kept running it up the middle, up the middle. When it came time that we needed it, on those fourth down plays, that seemed the way to get it and our offensive line again did a real good job of blocking it."
Big Play of the Game – It was actually the second-quarter defensive series after Catholic had scored and cut the Pios' lead to 20-7. An interception on the next play set the Panthers up at the Pios' 22 yard line. The defense took over with a Kade Smith sack on first down, no gain on a second down run with Nate Link and Hunter Stelly teaming for the stop and a one-yard gain on third down when Stelly tackled Fusilier after a pass. On fourth down, Link got a sack and forced a fumble that Stelly recovered.
Brad Stoma – Junior QB had his number called on six timely carries for 116 rushing yards and two TDs. Stoma also completed 10 of 14 passes for 112 yards and a TD. He just gets better and better!
John Michael Besse – Ran for 162 yards with scoring runs of 33 and 10 yards and caught three passes for 30 yards. J-Mike is averaging 7 yards a carry and 123 yards a game.
Nate Link – Another dominating performance by the junior defensive end with six solo and seven total tackles, two for losses totaling 10 yards, two forced fumbles, a pass break up, two sacks and two QB hurries.
Hunter Stelly – It's big play after big play for the senior linebacker who had 12 solo stops and 13 total tackles, one for a loss, a sack and a fumble recovery.
For the second time this season, Notre Dame will be playing a team for the first time ever when they travel to West St. Mary to open district play. The Wolfpack moved up from Class 2A last season and suffered through a winless campaign against 3A competition. Needless to say, the step up has been a struggle and WSN has only won nine times the past three seasons.
This season has been a little more up and down with WSM going 3-2 in the pre-district schedule. The Wolfpack opened with a win over Opelousas (17-7), lost at Loreauville (0-28), won at Morgan City (21-14), lost at home to Northwest (14-0) and last week went on the road to Ferriday and won 21-14.

Grand Opening of Payne Stewart Course Set for June 6
The official grand opening of the Payne Stewart Golf Club in Branson, Mo., is set for June 6th. A celebration for members and their guests, local dignitaries and the general public will take place June 6th at 1:00 pm. The festivities will begin with a ribbon-cutting ceremony followed by an open house of the clubhouse and a complimentary poolside barbecue.
The 18-hole course, co-designed by Chuck Smith and CBS commentator Bobby Clampett, was completed and opened for play in May. The facility, located in the residential community of Branson Hills, is managed by Hilton Golf.
According to director of golf T. J. Baggett, "We are excited to host this grand event as many people have anxiously been waiting our grand opening."
The course involves mature trees, several lakes and significant elevation changes as it winds through the hills and valleys of southwestern Missouri. Also dotting the landscape are dogwoods and redbuds.
"Mr. Smith and Mr. Clampett have designed an outstanding golf course, the owners are providing first-class amenities and the Hilton staff will provide a level of service equal to other nationally-recognized, high-end private golf facilities," added Baggett.
The 7,400-yard layout features plaques recounting Stewart's life and holes named for qualities he displayed on and off the course. The tees will be named after different tartan plaids that Stewart liked to wear. The fairways are zoysia, the rough fescue and the greens A-4 bentgrass.
In addition to the course, the club will offer a practice area with a driving range in 2010, as well as tennis and swimming. The clubhouse features a golf shop, men's and women's locker rooms, a lounge, restaurant, exercise facilities and meeting rooms.

His father was initially not interested in the mother. The obsessed mother then put him under her control via a love potion. Then, under the trance, they ****** (Guy did not give consent, therefore, rape) and little Voldy was born. Then, after she stopped drugging him, he understandably left.

You've found the harry potter fans you say? No **** you've found them. I could have told you that from the first comment. You don't need to be a die hard fan to understand and absorb basic information from literature, you clearly don't appreciate good literature or literature in general if you can't ask questions such as Why is he evil? you just read and go oh okay he's evil cool now let me finish this book so i can look smart in front of everyone and be cool cause everyone read this book. Even if you aren't a fan of it anyone who likes to read can appreciate a good book. someone needs to go back to the 3rd grade and learn about context and asking questions such as why.

No, I read because I get bored.
Nor do I really care about what i'm reading, it was ****** in comparison to other books.
And no, the fact that HIS MOTHER WAS A RAPIST is not defining the story. They made 8 movies with leaving that fact out.
Sure I guess it supports Voldemorts entire character, but who the **** cares? It's a goddamn fiction book. I have better things to do with my time than read those books carefully.

Product Pick: Lanvin "BEYOND" Bags
It's been a while since we last felt our hearts beating this fast. But, the new collection of wrist candies from Lanvin has just made us fall in love. The latest collection offers new range of BEYOND bags that comes in three models: a medium sized zip fastened daytime bag, a cocktail bag with a flap for the evening and a clutch for night time.
There is the BEYOND "Le Jour" has an adjustable leather strap and double compartments, cut from matt charcoal grey, aubergine and shell grained calfskin. The golden zip on the front highlights a Lanvin Paris logo in embossed gold. BEYOND "Le Soir" is a case of stiff black, red or blue leather with double compartments and an Art Deco jewel clasp that replaces the golden zip. And our favourite among the lot (image above) is BEYOND "La Nuit" that is a rigid Art Deco minaudière sculpted from dark or brilliant blue leathers. The night bird is decorated with a dark or gold coloured cabochon clasp, and comes in two sumptuous versions, gold lacquered wood and sparkling metal.
This collection is indeed a true contemporary reinterpretation of an evening bag created by Jeanne Lanvin in the fifties, it offers a delicate contrast between round shapes and "Art Deco" geometric jewels.

Despite indications that the ill-fated Macondo well was over-budget and behind schedule, BP's most respected presence on the Deepwater Horizon testified Wednesday that he was not under pressure to pick up the pace or cut costs.
"I am out there to do a job, and I don't believe in pushing people to keep schedules, and I'm just not going to do it, especially when safety's involved," BP veteran Ronnie Sepulvado told the court.
Sepulvado took the stand for the second day in the civil trial, which will determine liability for the massive 2010 oil spill. He left the rig four days before the well was completed test, Sepulvado testified, because his certificate showing he was a well-control expert was about to expire. BP had turned down his attempt to get an extension to stay on the rig, he has testified.
Sepulvado's replacement, Robert Kaluza, had four days to learn the rig before it exploded.
Sepulvado was questioned Tuesday by plaintiffs' attorneys and the Justice Department about his preparations for the negative pressure test that preceded the blowout. The test was designed to determine whether cement had properly plugged the bottom of the well, by measuring whether pressure in the well increased after all fluids were removed, and whether any fluids re-entered the well.
Sepulvado testified he had conducted negative pressure tests during drilling operations in the previous 15 years, and designed the one to be used on the Deepwater Horizon.
During questioning from BP attorney Hariklia "Carrie" Karis, Sepulvado continued testimony about his distrust of centralizers, a piece of equipment that fits around a drill pipe as it is being lowered down a well to assure the pipe stays centered. One of the criticisms of the drilling operation by independent investigators is that only six centralizers were used, rather than the 21 recommended by Halliburton officials, who were handling the cementing operation.
BP operated the ill-fated Macondo well, and Transocean owned and manned the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig. For BP and the other companies, the first phase of the complex court case focuses on whether their actions leading to the accident constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct.
If U.S. District Court Judge Carl Barbier rules that BP deliberately ignored safety protocols, it would result in a four-fold increase in the billions of dollars of Clean Water Act penalties expected to be levied.
Sepulvado acknowledged that he was aware the drilling rig crew had run into delays by the time he left April 16. He said BP "had another rig on the well, and a storm came through and messed up some of the electrical equipment on it," before switching to the Deepwater Horizon, which used satellite positioning to stay in place above a well.
"Did anyone ever ask you to hurry to to finish this well, because you needed to get somewhere else?" Karis asked Sepulvado.
"No, ma'am," he said.
Sepulvado said that he did not feel "pressure directly, or indirectly, because of costs to sacrifice safety" during his time at BP, either on the Macondo well or elsewhere.
Asked about BP's so-called mantra that "every dollar counts," as described in a 2011 expert report by civil and petroleum engineering professor Bob Bea and William Gale, a California-based fire and explosion investigator and consultant, Sepulvado testified that it is about emphasizing good planning, not putting cost-cutting over safety.
"That means to me that make every dollar count, just what it says," Sepulvado testified. "You don't waste money. To me, it means better planning for trying to get equipment in and out in a shorter window, rather than leaving expensive equipment sitting around for long periods of time when you get in."
Continuing into the afternoon, the court was slated to hear testimony from Richard Heenan, an independent drilling consultant who handles planning, permitting, operational management of drilling operations.
Heenan spent much of the morning under questioning from Justice Department attorney Michael Underhill, discussing negative pressure testing, well monitoring and well control.
Heenan, in his testimony, said the negative pressure test, which was carried out by a Transocean crew being supervised by BP, "was a gross and extreme departure from the standards of good oil field practice."
In his own 2011 expert report submitted on behalf of the Justice Department, Heenan underscored the significance of the negative pressure test, which he described as "a safety critical test, and the last diagnostic test of the integrity of the well prior to placing it into an under-balanced situation."
"The conclusion of both BP and Transocean personnel that the negative pressure test was successful lacked any justification based on basic principles of well control or physics," the report states. "With minimal explanation, even a layperson would be able to understand how the observed data from a negative pressure test should not have been interpreted as a successful test."
Kaluza and BP supervisor Donald Vidrine, who refused to testify in hearings conducted after the spill to determine what went wrong, were convinced by Transocean's toolpusher and driller that pressure on a rubber valve in the blowout preventer was probably causing false pressure readings on the drill pipe, a phenomenon they called the "bladder effect," according to BP's internal investigation into the disaster.
Both Kaluza and Vidrine were charged with manslaughter in the deaths of 11 rig workers on the rig who died in the accident. They are accused of disregarding abnormally high pressure readings that should have been glaring indications of trouble just before the blowout.
But Heenan's report also shot down the purported "bladder effect," joining BP and several experts who have subsequently labeled the idea a myth. "The proposal of the bladder effect, which has no technical basis, and the adoption of that theory, demonstrates the abdication of responsibility of both BP and Transocean," the report states.
Underhill walked Heenan through what it would have taken for Vidrine to instruct the drilling rig crew to redo the negative pressure test one question at a time, starting between 9:10 p.m. and 9:18 p.m. on April 20, 2010.
"At that point, Mr. Vidrine would have been standing, literally, in the brain stem, the heart, the very heart of the Deepwater Horizon's well monitoring and well control system, is that right?" Underhill asked.
Heenan agreed.
"But it's a relatively small room," Underhill continued, "so small that if Mr. Vidrine was in that room and the drillers are in that room, he would have been, if not next to him, within feet" of Dewey Revette, a Transocean driller who had authority to trigger an emergency disconnect system to dislodge the rig from the well in an emergency."
Heenan agreed.
"And within that room, the drill shack," Underhill continued, "this heart, the nerve center of the Deepwater Horizon, at that point if Mr. Vidrine had wanted to tell them redo the negative pressure test he wouldn't have had to pick up a phone, he wouldn't have to walk to the drill shack because he is already there. He could have simply turned to the driller next to him, or if he had to, shout it across the drill shack room redo the negative pressure test, correct?"
Heenan agreed.
"Do you have any evidence in this case that you reviewed that indicates Mr. Vidrine did that?" Underhill asked.
"No," Heenan replied.
"Do you believe he had the obligation to do that?" Underhill asked.
"Yes," Heenan replied, agreeing that such a response would fall in line "with good oil field practices."

A Tazo Tea Store from Starbucks in SeattleOle & Shaina Olmanson
Just over a week ago I was in Seattle, enjoying a blissfully sunny day, too, I might add. While I may have complained about Seattle's Juneuary before I headed out, I quickly fell in love with the waterfront views and the coffee shops on every block, sometimes two per block. There is literally no problem getting caffeinated in Seattle.
A good example of this is when getting ready to board a bus at our hotel that would take us to Lake Chelan, I determined I needed a coffee to go. I soon needed to decide between two equidistant Starbucks locations (directly across the street) or a coffee shop one floor below me. If I had spent some time looking, I probably could have found a few extra options.
Sure, Seattle is known for its coffee, but what if you prefer to get your caffeine in another form? Say, tea. Tazo Tea, specifically. Soon, you'll be able to.
Coming in October, the mega-giant siren sets forth on a new adventure: tea. The NY Post reported that Starbucks is set to open a 1,700-foot store in Seattle's University Village that will be tea-only.

You should include an attendance policy in the course syllabus. Regular attendance in all classes will be assumed and encouraged. The instructor will determine the relationship between class attendance and the objective of the class and the way in which he or she will evaluate attendance as a factor in the achievement of the student. The instructor has the responsibility to inform students of policies since these policies relate to the students' grades. The student has the responsibility of knowing the policies in each course.
Registered Students Who Fail to Attend Class
A faculty member may drop a student from a course if the student has not attended the first two 50 minute sessions of a Greeley campus course, or the first class session of an Extended Studies course. The student must notify the instructor if the student cannot attend during this time. Since not all instructors will execute this option, it is the student's responsibility to follow the drop procedure and not assume the instructor will drop him or her.

The Effect of Voter Identification Laws on Turnout

January 1, 2008
California Institute of Technology Social Science Working Paper No. 1267R
Since the passage of the Help America Vote Act in 2002, nearly half of the states have adopted a variety of new identification requirements for voter registration and participation by the 2006 general election. There has been little analysis of whether these requirements reduce voter participation, especially among certain classes of voters. In this paper we document the effect of voter identification requirements on registered voters as they were imposed in states in the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections, and in the 2002 and 2006 midterm elections. Looking first at trends in the aggregate data, we find no evidence that voter identification requirements reduce participation. Using individual-level data from the Current Population Survey across these elections, however, we find that the strictest forms of voter identification requirements - combination requirements of presenting an identification card and positively matching one's signature with a signature either on file or on the identification card, as well as requirements to show picture identification - have a negative impact on the participation of registered voters relative to the weakest requirement, stating one's name. We also find evidence that the stricter voter identification requirements depress turnout to a greater extent for less educated and lower income populations, for both minorities and non-minorities.

Re: WWE: A New Era Beckons
Summerslam recap is shown with Undertaker retaining his title due to submission when Dr. X threw a white handkerchief to end the WWE Title match. Matches for tonight are shown with three matches happening with the winners getting a place in Team RAW at Survivor Series: Alberto Del Rio faces R-Truth, Sheamus faces Christian and Drew McIntyre faces CM Punk.
The audience cheers loud as huge pyro occurs.
JR – "Well ladies and gentlemen, here we are on the road to Survivor Series. I am still under the effects from the aftermath to Summerslam and our WWE Champion The Phenom The Undertaker will lead Team RAW at Survivor Series against Smackdown and I am pretty sure we will win"
Lawler– "Well JR, last night was an extravaganza, I am still feeling the goosebumps from when Cena punted Orton's head off and Undertaker ended the unbeaten streak of Ezekiel Jackson. Also, tonight we have three big matches to decide the composition of Team RAW at SS, so here we go"
***Your Time is up, My time is now***
Suddenly, the music hits. The audience gives a thunderous pop as Cena comes out smiling in his orange attire
Lawler – "He is back JR, John Cena is back to RAW after two months"
Cena comes down to the ring with the audience cheering loud, he takes the mic and keeps smiling while waiting for the pop to die down a bit.
Cena – "What's up, Atlanta !!!!!!!!! (huge pop) I am backkkkkkkkk. (crowd is at their feet)."
Cena waits and is immensely pleased by the reaction from the crowd.
Cena – "Two months ago, Randy Orton punted my head off at Armaggedon in the Elimination Chamber match for the WWE Title (boos from the crowd). I returned to Smackdown last month and what happened last night is history. I wouldn't say I enjoyed doing what I did, I do not like the fact that Orton won the match due to disqualification but there is something I got which overcomes all this – I got closure. I ended the matter with Orton yesterday night and now I look forward to being back on the show which is closest to my heart – WWE RAW. (huge pop from the audience). I am back to all you people who missed me on RAW for the past two months."
"Cena Cena" chants from the crowd. Cena looks pleased.
Cena – "And what better time than Survivor Series to be back !!! I would like to express my interest in being a part of Team RAW to Mr. Bischoff, and seeing that others have to earn that spot, I demand a match tonight for earning that spot in Team RAW"
** I'm back*** (Bischoff comes out to the ring smiling with a mic in his hand)
Bischoff – "Cena, let me tell you that I am very happy that you are finally back to RAW. I am indeed. But, there is a reason why there are only three matches tonight because the 5th spot in Team RAW has been already awarded to Jack Swagger. (huge boos from the crowd). I am really sorry Cena, I would have loved to have you in Team RAW but there is nothing I can do about this"
Cena – "Woah, well if it ain't painfully obvious, why not you make John Cena vs Jack Swagger tonight in the main event for the last spot on Team RAW. Oh let me see, things have changed here. The last time I was here, you took fair decisions and were a victim of an attack by Legacy. But now, you are a puppet of Mr. America wannabe Jack Swagger" (crowd cheers while Bischoff sulks)
"We want Cena, Let's go Cena" chants from the crowd overpower the whole aura of the arena.
Bischoff looks mad but suddenly smiles and says – "Alright Cena, you want your match, you got it. Tonight you will face Jack Swagger in a No Disqualification match and the winner will earn a spot on Team RAW, and the guest referee for the match will be The Coach Jonathan Coachman. The audience boos while Bischoff walks out of the ring. Cena looks towards him and sports a grave look as he knows what to expect in the match.
1. The music hits and some pop is there from audience. Daniel Bryan makes his debut on RAW. The match is against another debutante Tyson Kidd. WWE recently released Kozlov, Finlay and hence, hired two new superstars. Daniel Bryan gets some reaction from the audience and he works a good match. Bryan wins via Lebell Lock.
Daniel Bryan def. Tyson Kidd via submission at 5:08
Team RAW spot on the line – CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre:
CM Punk comes out for his match with Drew McIntyre. The winner will earn a spot on Team RAW at SS. The match goes on for long with both gathering momentum in parts of the match. McIntyre misses a Future Shock DDT which Punk counters into his own DDT. Punk takes McIntyre up for the GTS, but McIntyre comes out and clotheslines Punk into the referee who gets knocked down. Suddenly, Miz comes running out and as McIntyre waves his hand to clothesline him, Miz ducks and delivers the Skull Crushing Finale. Miz leaves with a smile on his face, while Punk takes the cover. The referee has come up ad counts the pinfall.
CM Punk def. Drew McIntyre via pinfall at 7:49
3. Backstage, Josh Matthews takes an interview of US Champion John Morrison. He enquires as to why Morrison cheated his way to retain the title by delivering McIntyre a low blow. Morrison laughs it away and says that he will do anything in his capacity to keep this US title gold on him. He said that actions don't matter, what matters is that finally who wins this gold, and finally who is the champion. Suddenly, William Regal comes and the crowd cheers. Regal notifies Morrison that he has a shot at the US title as he beat Swagger last week on RAW. And, at Survivor Series, he will win the title from him, and whatever antics Morrison has in his kit, he will always come up short against the devious Englishman. Morrison looks angrily while Regal walks away.
Team RAW spot on the line – Alberto Del Rio vs R-Truth:
R-Truth looks good in the earlier moments of the match. Del Rio comes back with the enzuigiri and gets a near pinfall. Truth tries to hit the What's Up but Del Rio prevents it, and kicks him down. Del Rio locks the cross armbreaker and wins via submission.
Alberto Del Rio def. R-Truth via submission at 7:01
5. Backstage, Swagger meets Bischoff and asks why he gave the match to Cena for the Team RAW spot. Swagger noted that this is not Cody Rhodes, its John Cena and he is not sure if even Coach as a referee will be enough to stop Cena as he is inspired to fight for his Team RAW after being away for two months. Bischoff laughs and asks Swagger to just prepare for the match and leave these things to him. Swagger smells that Bischoff has something under his sleeve and goes away somewhat contented.
Team RAW spot on the line – Christian vs Sheamus:
The match goes on with Sheamus controlling it. Christian attempts a DDT but Sheamus comes out and delivers the Brogue kick for a near pinfall. Sheamus clotheslines Christian and gets ready for the Celtic Cross but Christian kicks him in the groin. Christian goes for the Killswitch and delivers it and takes the cover. Sheamus kicks out at 2.5-count and Christian looks shocked. He picks up Sheamus again and goes for the Killswitch but Sheamus comes out and clotheslines him. He runs towards the ring and as Christian gets up, Sheamus delivers the Brogue kick for the pinfall.
Sheamus def. Christian via pinfall at 8:24
7. Ezekiel Jackson comes out to the ring alone and calls out for Dr. X. The manager comes out with a mic and asks Jackson to listen to him. Jackson looks angry and Dr. X enters the ring. Dr. X says that he did the best thing at Summerslam by giving away the match and prevented Jackson from tapping out to the Hell's Gate. He also held Jackson's hand when Jackson had lifted his hand to tap out.
Jackson – "Dr. X, I know what you did last night. But that cost me my streak. I lost my first match last night in a decisive manner due to submission. I lost my first WWE title match by tapping out according to the record books. And you are asking me to calm down."
Dr. X – "Zeke, you should stop thinking. You have the power and I am the brain. You listen to me, I have a flawless record as a manager. Yesterday night, if you would have tapped out, I would have become a joke. I have managed many clients till date and none of my clients have been pinned or have tapped out till date. I have led people to becoming FCW champions and this was my first big chance at WWE and I could not have let you ruin it. I gave away the match to prevent us both the embarrassment you were about to inflict. I could not let you...."
Suddenly, Jackson clotheslines Dr. X down to the mat. The audience cheers loud. Jackson looks down and picks him up and delivers the Ura-nage to his manager. Jackson keeps looking at the lifeless body in the ring when referees come out and ask him to go away.
Lawler – "Well JR, I cannot believe what we saw today. I had certainly heard of Dr. X and his flawless record as a manager, but yesterday night he cost his client a WWE Title match"
JR – "What could have happened was that Jackson would have passed away in Taker's hold and Taker would have still won the match but Jackson would definitely have had salvaged some pride that way by not giving up"
Lawler – "The problem is that Jackson believes he would have broken the hold, he does not accept the fact that he could have passed out or tapped out. Well, that's still quite uncertain but next we have our main event – John Cena faces Jack Swagger and the last spot of Team RAW is on the line. We have The Undertaker, Alberto Del Rio, Sheamus and CM Punk already in the team"
MAIN EVENT: (John Cena faces Jack Swagger, Spl. Referee – Jonathan Coachman)
Coachman comes out to huge boos. Swagger comes out next and does some push-ups. Cena comes out to a huge pop. Coach checks him for weapons and Cena looks pissed. Coach does not check Swagger and asks for the bell to ring. The match gets under and Cena starts the offense on Swagger. Cena controls the match and delivers the spinout slam and takes the cover. Coach takes some time in rolling around before settling for the pinfall. Swagger kicks out at 1-count. Cena goes towards Coach who backs up to the corne and begins showing his attire that Cena should not lay his hands on him.
Swagger attacks from behind and takes control. Swagger delivers the Belly to Belly suplex and locks the Ankle Lock. Cena begins to moan when Coach goes and applies the Ankle Lock on Cena's other leg. The audience boos loud and Cena makes unsuccessful attempts to reach the ropes. The audience knows Cena cannot reach the ropes as both Swagger and Coach bring him in the centre of the ring again and again as he moves even a bit. Cena raises his hand and tries to bang on the mat, Coach tries to see it but Cena's body blocks his hand, Swagger asks Coach to go and see if Cena is tapping out, Coach leaves the leg and Cena rolls round and kicks Swagger into the turnbuckle.
Cena lifts Swagger for the AA but Coach kicks him in the leg and Cena falls down. Swagger goes for the Gutwrench Powerbomb but Cena comes out and delivers the spinout slam. Coach comes towards him and Cena knocks him down with a DDT and lies down. All three people lie down when Rhodes comes out with a steel chair. The audience cheers loud as Swagger starts getting up, Rhodes raises the steel chair, Swagger puts his hands around his head shouting, but Rhodes hits the chair on John Cena's head. The audience is shocked and Rhodes smiles. Swagger also begins to smile and asks Coach to make the count.
Suddenly, the lights went out. The audience gives a humongous pop, as the light comes back, Swagger and Rhodes turn back and Undertaker chokes both of them in the neck and delivers a double chokeslam. Coach comes up to his feet and begins to beg Undertaker to spare him. Cena puts his hand over Swagger and Coach who is intimidated out of his wits by the Deadman makes the count like a fair referee and runs away immediately as Taker begins to chase him slowly.
John Cena def. Jack Swagger via pinfall at 15:17
The crowd cheers loud and are at their feet. Cena comes up to his feet taking the help of the ropes. Undertaker chases Coach on the ramp as Coach runs to backstage. Undertaker stands on the ramp and looks towards Cena, while Cena salutes Undertaker in his style. The audience keeps cheering and
the screen fades to black.

What does Hale mean when he says, "Why, it is all simple. I come to do the Devil's work...Can you not see the blood on my head!"
2 Answers | Add Yours
Here is the full quote for reference:
"Why, it is all simple. I come to do the Devil's work. I come to counsel Christians they should belie themselves (his sarcasm collapses)There is blood on my head. Can you not see the blood on my head!"
Reverend Hale has returned to Salem at this point in the play, Act IV. He feels a great deal of guilt about having contributed to the hysteria in Salem regarding the accusations of witchcraft.
He specifically returns to Salem to convince the remaining accused to confess, and thus save their lives. He feels the weight of those who have already been executed on his own head. He feels a deep responsibility for his contribution to the deaths of others.
The blood he refers to is the blood of the innocent who have been put to death.
Reverend Hale goes through a transformation in the play, at first enjoying his role as authority on witches, but then he feels great remorse and guilt due to the lengths the people in Salem go to rid their town of "witches."
Hale has come to believe that the accused are innocent. Lying, or "bearing false witness" was a sin that condemned to hell. He is, however, telling the accused to lie and say that they are witches to save their souls. By doing so, he is giving his soul, and theirs, to the devil.

Skip to comments.Homosexual activists demand removal of Chick-Fil-A from college campuses
Posted on 03/12/2012 8:11:52 PM PDT by Engraved-on-His-hands
The fast food chain Chick-Fil-A, which has come under attack in the past for the conservative Christian values of its owners, is now fighting homosexual activists who want to see the restaurant kicked off college campuses across the country.
According to a Baptist Press report, the company has been at the center of controversy on at least nine campuses, including Duke University, Northeastern University, and New York University (NYU).
Students who want to see the restaurant kicked off campus or blocked from coming point to its donations to conservative Christian charities as evidence of its anti-gay agenda. According to IRS documents, WinShape, a charitable foundation funded by the company, funneled about $2 million to groups such as the Marriage & Family Legacy Fund, Focus on the Family, Exodus International, and the Family Research Council in 2009.
These donations, say NYU freshman Hillary Dworkoski, show that the restaurant is out of sync with her universitys open and inclusive campus.
Maintaining a contract with an anti-gay vendor like Chick-fil-A undermines what makes this university so great, she wrote, in a Change.org petition asking the school to give the fast food chain the boot.
(Excerpt) Read more at lifesitenews.com ...
"Now let see if I have this (ahem) straight. Gay activists want to replace Chik-fil-A with Richard-fil-A?"
Actually, they want to Fil - Richard's - A.
We have a Chick Fil A right here in the middle of libtard Hollywood. The liberal morons don't seem to mind as it's always packed.
"Actually, they want to Fil - Richards - A."
Ha!! Touche!
(Not pronounced tushy, although the gay activists would prefer that!)
Now let see if I have this (ahem) straight. Gay activists want to replace Chik-fil-A with Richard-fil-A?
Allow me to correct your minor error in the above.
There are NO, repeat NO gay activists on that campus. The soi dissant "gay activists" are hired demonstrators for the Beef Cattle Union, those fine beings who supported the "Eat More Chicken" ads.
PS One does Not want to know what real "gay activists" prefer to eat.
Do the "Accept me! Accept me!" crowd EVER give up trying to impose the fascism of their sexuality on the rest of us?? What a bunch of narcissistic children.
Eat more Chickin!
Eat more Chickin!
Eat more Chickin!
oops! Triple post
Yes, it's the gay cow union members!
They want to expel a restaurant from the campus because its founder disagees with their political agenda, then they say it's in order to keep the campus open and inclusive. If that's not a total contradiction, I don't know what is.
I don't see anyone holding a gun to queers forcing them too eat there.

Not one single university should receive one penny of tax money, for starters. This is just so wrong on so many levels. Universities are mostly hotbeds of the worst pits of hardcore leftist radical propaganda - training activist idiots who are intellectual cripples and moral sickos.
What I am waiting for is when the homonazi crowd starts demanding the removal of Mohammedan-owned businesses and organizations off college campuses......
Still waiting...
I ove Chik-fil-a. It sells a good product. The company encourages family and family values. The company gives back to the community. They pay a decent wage. Tell the elitist self entitled college brats to go get a real job and then we will talk
The hotel I'll be staying at wants 10.75 for a continental breakfast. Looks like I'll be seeking out the local chick fila. :-)
How about kicking homosexuals off campus for being anti-Christian? Seriously - am I missing something in the logic?
As Secretary Clinton recently announced, gay rights are human rights, and human rights are gay rights, (from the article)
Ummm.....no, little lib acolyte, not even Her Thighness Hitlery Clinton can create rights.
Why are libs so stupid ? WHY ? WHY?!!!
Apparently, you didn't get the memo, fellow Oceanian.
Only the Authoritarian Left Inner Party can determine what is and is not tolerent. We the Proles have no say in the matter.
In other news, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner introduced his 2+2=5 or Whatever Economic Plan.......
All kidding aside, great point.
If the colleges/universities are " open and inclusive " then it makes sense to welcome the chicken business to campus... e.g. Aren't Christians people too? ... shrug !
I wish I would quit seeing these Chick Fil-A threads so late at night! When I saw one last week, my whole family and I went the next day.
American teenagers at our stores here in the Denver area too. I thought no American teenager wanted to work anymore. Unlike McDonald's and elsewhere, I don't think they hire illegals. I haven't seen any so far and we live in illegal central.
Ok, then, that's the question to ask:
What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
How about kicking homosexuals off campus for being anti-Christian? Both sets of ousters have federal law on their side. In a short time there will be nobody left on campus.
LOL, SHUT UP, little ignorant girl. And go to classes. And learn. And SHUT UP.
"So because they have an open and inclusive campus they want to kick out someone that may not agree with them."
Don't worry; the Muslims that will resolve this problem are arriving by the planeloads daily, and are probably all over the campuses already.
I demand that the Homosexuals move to Iran.
Otherwise, I demand someone give me a million dollars.
And they support the local Christian school's "Power Cards".
I got two different school power cards in my wallet and Chic-Fil-A is on both of them.
Get a free chicken sandwich for buying the # 1 meal.
These people are just bored.
Cows advising people to eat mo chicken is fun and good advertising.The fast food provided by Chic-Fil-A fits well with the lifestyle of the college crowd.There is just something fundamentally wrong with some Reprobate claiming the business associates of Chick-Fil-A —and not the food service provided—ought disqualify Chick-Fil-A from College Campuses. ONLY a MORON -or someone advancing the Gay Agenda would be blind to the fact that when one calls for exclusion of a group they cannot promote Open and inclusion by excluding. These same Reprobate domestic terrorists insist Christian groups may not exclude infidels and atheists.Why should the unbelievers be allowed to exclude Christians?
These whiners are the ultimate hypocrites. They complain about "bullying" but have no qualms about bullying those who don't agree with them.
So much for being inclusive.
Many years ago, I learned that such "liberalswill tolerate anything except contradiction. Now they have taken over the universities.
What is truly sad is that Ms. Dworkoski has made it to college and yet doesn't realize how hypocritical her statement is. Open and inclusive means all views, not just the ones you hold near & dear.
What's even sadder is her professors don't realize how hypocritical that view is either.
——Open and inclusive——
Like General Sheridan said, The only good queer is a dead queer
If these homos lived in the Middle East, they would be ground up into chicken patties and served as goat food.
Every Time !
About time to hear something supporting freedom come out of a college campus.
Liberals are anti-Christian.
They'll "tolerate" ANYTHING except Christian values.
Homos are funny.
They attempted to engineer their "boycott" of Chik-Fil-A a couple years ago, and the result? A far-more family-friendly location... always full of customers... a great place to go at lunchtime or after work.
Does anyone from around Chicago remember the "Taste of Chicago" and the "Thank You Jesse Jackson" t-shirts? This sounds like a similar situation.
I'm so tired of these people and not sure how much longer I can go on living near and around them and the kind of people who advocate for them.
Am learning in my NP assessment courses now the sort of damage that men do to their rectal areas and prostate by participating in anal sex. It's really, really a disgusting and disordered practice.
It's not what our rectums were made for, really. Why we are constantly sold this as "normal" and natural ...it's just beyond me. It's NOT. It is filthy, literally and figuratively.
I'm at the point where I just pity them if they are compelled to do this, if their attractions are so strong. However, I am NOT going to "fight" for their right to do it. It's not something to fight for — it's something to pity or hopefully, just something a person can, with great prayer and strength, learn to avoid doing.
Remember this - it's not the homos who are the problem, it's the anti-Christians using "homosexual rights" as a weapon against Christians who are the problem.
The goal is to get Christian values outlawed.
I'm not so sure about this scenario.
A Dem all-out attack on the LDS Church will expose the soft and ugly underside of the Democrat party to the voters in this country, who do not take kindly to attacks on religion.
It also opens up the obvious, that if they attack one religion (well two so far, counting Catholics who have been viciously attacked by this administration) where will they stop?
Members of all religions would be wondering if their religious belief is the next one to be attacked.
Basing a campaign on religious attacks doesn't work very well in this country. Yet.
If I am wrong, we may as well give up hope.

Crisis Management Guide
Like a challenging yoga sequence, the wellness program started in one place and came to rest some where else, and stretched everyone involved. Wilsonwest, an event-marketing agency based in San Francisco, was organizing a leadership summit for a client — a health-care investment bank — and looking to do something with its spouse program that went beyond the usual spa and fitness offerings.
The summit was "a high-touch, C-level event" for about a hundred attendees plus guests, according to Cindy Wilson, founder and president of Wilsonwest, held at a Napa Valley resort a few months ago. "We're building the social program and the agenda," Wilson said, "and thought, let's come up with a wellness program that will appeal to this sophisticated audience."
So Wilsonwest reached out to the Chopra Center, in Carlsbad, Calif., to help create a mindfulness program that would include yoga as well as a variety of other mind/body wellness activities. Wilsonwest's client bought 60 or so yoga mats and other materials for the program. "And then it was, what are we going to do with these supplies after this event?" Wilson said.
She thought immediately of Gateway High School, a charter school in San Francisco. A few years ago, Wilsonwest worked with Gateway — which Wilson's now college-student son attended — on a new fitness center, arranging for the St. Regis San Francisco hotel to donate "an incredible amount of almost-new exercise equipment." Now Wilson thought the school might appreciate the yoga mats — and use them as the jumping-off point for an entire wellness program.
Wilsonwest's client donated the mats to Gateway after the summit, and the Chopra Center threw in additional materials. "And they also connected me with a woman who has a company where she started out establishing wellness programs in public schools in Manhattan," Wilson said, "and now does that in San Francisco. It's definitely going to have a greater impact than delivering yoga mats."
Mary Sullivan, an executive producer for Wilsonwest who worked on the summit, added: "They'll be training some of the teachers, so if there's not funding for an additional instructor, some of the existing staff can volunteer to do guided meditation with these kids. These are inner-city kids,... and it's a nice way for them to start their day centered and in a new space."
The idea, Sullivan said, is to figure out "how can we really engineer this so it's lasting?" Wilson said: "The kids are now working out in this gym. The teachers are working out in this gym. The kids see the teachers working out. The yoga program, we're hoping, is going to be something where kids can earn [physical-education] credits. They'll see their peers doing that."
And, Wilson said, the wellness program will further Gateway's primary mission as an educational institution. "There's a lot of data out there on why these types of programs are really, really beneficial" in terms of fostering learning, she said. "And these kids would not otherwise be exposed to it."
Not only has the wellness program benefited Gateway, Wilsonwest feels the positive effects as well. "Companies that incorporate social impact as part of their business strategy," said Wilson, "will build a stronger brand, attract more committed employees, and develop stronger relationships with their customers and partners.... So it's baked into the strategy from the beginning, and you look to create activity that is in sync with your customers' larger social and corporate initiatives. There's a value to this beyond the act of just donating something."

I used http://groceries.asda.com/asda-estor...=1214921923791 - was worried it was TOO cheap, but works okay. You don't get a mascara wand to apply it though, just a bendy plastic stick.
Um, this is the same guy who writes about how feminism is a tool of the new world order to destroy our society:
"Feminism is elite social engineering designed to destroy gender identity by making women masculine and men feminine. Increasingly heterosexuals are conditioned to behave like homosexuals who generally don't marry and have children."
His email address is "save the males".
Seriously, dude?

Writing to flash is inherently several orders of magnitude slower
than reading from it. Historically writing took something like
50ms and reading something like 1us, i.e. 50'000 times faster.
These times are over, but a speed difference by a factor of 10
is still not uncommon. Every write to FLASH damages it. The problem
is that writing FLASH fast, while possible, damages the FLASH more
than a slow write, so writes are slowed down, expecially in cheaper
FLASH (or, better: "not extremely expensive FLASH).

The Burning Skies (Autumn Rain #2)by David J. Williams
Life as U.S. counterintelligence agent Claire Haskell once knew it is in tatters--her mission betrayed, her lover dead, and her memories of the past suspect. Worse, the defeat of the mysterious insurgent group known as Autumn Rain was not as complete as many believed. It is quickly becoming clear that the group's ultimate goal is not simply to destroy the tenuous global alliances of the 22nd century-- but to rule all of humanity. And they're starting with the violent destruction of the Net and the assassination of the U.S. president. Now it's up to Claire, with her ability to jack her brain into the systems of the enemy, to win this impossible war. Battling ferociously across the Earth-Moon system, and navigating a complex world filled with both steadfast loyalists and ruthless traitors, Claire must be ready for the Rain's next move. But the true enemy may already be one step ahead of her.
The Machinery of Light (Autumn Rain #3)by David J. Williams
With The Machinery of Light, David J. Williams completes his furiously paced, stunningly imagined trilogy--a work of vision, beauty, and pulse-pounding futuristic action. September 26, 2110. 10:22 GMT. Following the assassination of the American president, the generals who have seized power initiate World War Three, launching a surprise attack against the Eurasian Coalition's forces throughout the Earth-Moon system. Across the orbits, tens of thousands of particle beams and lasers blast away at one another. The goal: crush the other side's weaponry, paving the way for nuclear bombardment of the cities. As inferno becomes Armageddon, the rogue commando unit Autumn Rain embarks on one last run. Matthew Sinclair, an imprisoned spymaster, plots his escape. And his former protege Claire Haskell, capable of hacking into both nets and minds, is realizing that all her powers may merely be playing into Sinclair's plans. For even as Claire evades the soldiers of East and West amid carnage in the lunar tunnels, the surviving members of the Rain converge upon the Moon, one step ahead of the Eurasian fleets but one step behind the mastermind who created Autumn Rain--and his terrible final secret.
The Mirrored Heavensby David J. Williams
In this thrilling debut, David J. Williams delivers a hard-hitting blend of military SF and dystopian cyberpunk, set in a futuristic landscape where hostilities rage from the Eastern and Western hemispheres to the outer ranges of space. In the 22nd century, the first wonder of a brave new world is the Phoenix Space Elevator, designed to give mankind greater access to the frontier beyond Earth. Built by the U. S. /Pan-Asian Coalition, the Elevator is also a grand symbol of superpower alliance following a second cold war. And it's just been destroyed. The South American insurgent group Autumn Rain claims responsibility for the attack, but with suspicions rampant, armies and espionage teams are mobilized across the globe and beyond. Enter Claire Haskell and Jason Marlowe, U. S. counterintelligence agents, and former lovers--though their memories may only be constructs implanted by their spymaster. Forced to set aside the enigma of their past, their agenda is to trust no one. For in a time of shifting loyalties, the enemy could be anyone--from a shadowy assassin working a questionable mission on the dark side of the moon, to a Euro data thief working under deep cover and wooed into a dangerous pact. As the crisis mounts, and the search for Autumn Rain spans both Earth and Moon, the lives of all those involved will converge in one explosive finale--and a startling aftermath that will rewrite everything they've ever known--about their mission, their world, and themselves From the Trade Paperback edition.
Transformers: Retributionby David J. Williams Mark Williams
For decades, Transformers fans across the globe have marveled at the mighty clashes of Megatron and Optimus Prime, and speculated about their arrival on planet Earth. Now, in Transformers: Retribution, the prequel to the Transformers animated series, the epic odyssey of these two great warriors is finally revealed as Autobots and Decepticons battle one another . . . and the most diabolic foe they've ever encountered. Aboard the Ark, Optimus Prime leads his Autobots through deep space, searching for the AllSpark so vital to their home planet, Cybertron. Megatron's not far behind, and his Decepticons are itching for war. But a mysterious planet conceals an enemy far more cunning and powerful: the Quintessons. Masters of tyranny, technology, and twisted double crosses, the Quintessons are out to enslave both Autobots and Decepticons. Their deadly bag of tricks includes fiendish trials and a secret link all the way back to Cybertron, where Shockwave is wreaking havoc with supercomputer Vector Sigma. In the coming conflagration, Star Seekers, Wreckers, Alpha Trion, and Sharkticons all have their parts to play. For none can dodge the Quintesson juggernaut of evil, and none will escape the cataclysmic life-and-death battles that will catapult Autobots and Decepticons to Earth.From the Paperback edition.

I've always been a crafter and grew up in a crafting family, so it's really a part of who I am. I've been a doll maker and designer since the mid 1990s, but am always trying new things.
I maintain my own website (www.blueherondolls.com) and keep a blog as well (www.blueherondolls.blogspot.com).
I love making dolls with a vintage feel. My "Verity" cloth doll pattern has been available as a traditional paper pattern since 2008. The detailed instructions (17 pages worth) include lots of illustrations and photos.
Verity is to be made from a good quality woven fabric like tightly woven muslin. She stands about 18 or 22 inches tall - two sizes are included in this pattern. Wire armature strengthens and stabilizes her neck. Her face is needle sculpted. She has sewn, stuffed and attached ears. Her face, neck, upper chest/back and lower arms are painted with layers of "Messy Mix" (dollmaker Helen Pringle's recipe), gesso, and acrylic paints. Her shoes are painted in acrylics, with paperclay heels. Her facial features are painted in acrylics and shaded with colored pencils, powder blush, and pastels. Her hair is Tibetan lamb on the hide, made into a wig and glued in place. Her hands are a realistic mitt design, with hand-sewn finger divisions. Verity's clothing is removable. She is intended for display or very gentle play.

Taxes Around the World: A Brief History of World Tax Policy, 1981-2007
Kevin A. Hassett

American Enterprise Institute (AEI)
December 3, 2009
American Enterprise Institute Working Paper No. 160
In this paper, we provide a brief overview of U.S. tax policy in relation to other OECD countries and also in some cases, in relation to world averages. The U.S. tax code emerges in our analysis is exceptional in many regards. Most countries have gradually moved toward collecting a large share of their revenue from value added taxes. This movement has generally allowed countries to reduce income tax rates relative to the U.S. The U.S. tax code also redistributes income significantly more than most of its trading partners.

I could never understand the concept of making resolutions on New Years. Why wait that long if it's something important? Is it just an excuse to prolong the "slackiness"?
I also don't know very many poeple who stock with their resolutions pass January

Famous Short Courage Poems. Short Courage Poetry by Famous Poets. A collection of the all-time best Courage short poems
C was a catWho ran after a rat;But his courage did failWhen she seized on his tail. c Crafty old cat!
Crafty old cat!
AH, ye gods! ye great immortals
In the spacious heavens above us!
Would ye on this earth but give us
Steadfast minds and dauntless courage
We, oh kindly ones, would leave you
All your spacious heavens above us!
I have seen a man betake himself to sterile soil. He
was neither a heretic nor a Musulman; he had neither
riches nor religion, nor God, nor truth, nor law, nor certitude.
Who in this world or in the other would have
so much courage?
Once more, my now bewildered Dove
Bestirs her puzzled wings
Once more her mistress, on the deep
Her troubled question flings --
Thrice to the floating casement
The Patriarch's bird returned,
Courage! My brave Columbia!
There may yet be land
For Mercy, Courage, Kindness, Mirth,
There is no measure upon earth.
Nay, they wither, root and stem,
If an end be set to them.
Overbrim and overflow,
If you own heart you would know;
For the spirit born to bless
Lives but in its own excess
I see neither the means of joining myself to Thee,
nor the possibility of living for the space of a breath
separated from Thee. I have not the courage to drive
out the torments I endure. Oh! how difficult my plight,
how strange my grief, how exquisite my pain!
Supposing that I should have the courage
To let a red sword of virtue
Plunge into my heart,
Letting to the weeds of the ground
My sinful blood,
What can you offer me?
A gardened castle?
A flowery kingdom?
What? A hope?
Then hence with your red sword of virtue.
There were many who went in huddled procession,
They knew not whither;
But, at any rate, success or calamity
Would attend all in equality.
There was one who sought a new road.
He went into direful thickets,
And ultimately he died thus, alone;
But they said he had courage.
O what availeth thee thy melting mood,
Thine ecstasy
When once again thy thralldoms o'er thee brood:
& what doth profit thee thy courage high,
& strength so fain;
So soon agen thy coward heart shall fly?
For more & stronger strife our strength shall strain,
Though hope's best good
Be but this hope: to strive, & strive again.
NO labor-saving machine,
Nor discovery have I made;
Nor will I be able to leave behind me any wealthy bequest to found a hospital or library,
Nor reminiscence of any deed of courage, for America,
Nor literary success, nor intellect—nor book for the book-shelf;
Only a few carols, vibrating through the air, I leave,
For comrades and lovers.
Riches I hold in light esteem,
And love I laugh to scorn;
And lust of fame was but a dream
That vanish'd with the morn:
And if I pray, the only prayer
That moves my lips for me
Is, "Leave the heart that now I bear,
And give me liberty!"
Yes, as my swift days near their goal,
'Tis all that I implore:
In life and death a chainless soul,
With courage to endure
"They only burn themselves to reach Paradise"
- Mne. Nhu
original courage is good,
motivation be damned,
and if you say they are trained
to feel no pain,
are they
guarenteed this?
is it still not possible
to die for somebody else?
you sophisticates
who lay back and
make statements of explanation,
I have seen the red rose burning
and this means more.
Love is universal migraine,
A bright stain on the vision
Blotting out reason.
Symptoms of true love
Are leanness, jealousy,
Laggard dawns;
Are omens and nightmares -
Listening for a knock,
Waiting for a sign:
For a touch of her fingers
In a darkened room,
For a searching look.
Take courage, lover!
Could you endure such pain
At any hand but hers?
Nay, nay, sweet England, do not grieve!
Not one of these poor men who died
But did within his soul believe
That death for thee was glorified.
Ever they watched it hovering near
That mystery 'yond thought to plumb,
Perchance sometimes in loathèd fear
They heard cold Danger whisper, Come! --
Heard and obeyed. O, if thou weep
Such courage and honour, beauty, care,
Be it for joy that those who sleep
Only thy joy could share.
POsthumus boasts he does not Thunder fear,
And for this cause would Innocent appear;
That in his Soul no Terrour he does feel,
At threatn'd Vultures, or Ixion's Wheel,
Which fright the Guilty: But when Fabius told
What Acts 'gainst Murder lately were enrol'd,
'Gainst Incest, Rapine, ---- straight upon the Tale
His Colour chang'd, and Posthumus grew pale.
His Impious Courage had no other Root,
But that the Villaine, Atheist was to boot.
Assistance and victory in the spiritual warfare.
For ever blessed be the Lord,
My Savior and my shield;
He sends his Spirit with his word,
To arm me for the field.
When sin and hell their force unite,
He makes my soul his care,
Instructs me to the heav'nly fight,
And guards me through the war.
A friend and helper so divine
Does my weak courage raise;
He makes the glorious vict'ry mine,
And his shall be the praise.
To give life you must take life,
and as our grief falls flat and hollow
upon the billion-blooded sea
I pass upon serious inward-breaking shoals rimmed
with white-legged, white-bellied rotting creatures
lengthily dead and rioting against surrounding scenes.
Dear child, I only did to you what the sparrow
did to you; I am old when it is fashionable to be
young; I cry when it is fashionable to laugh.
I hated you when it would have taken less courage
to love.
Oh, quick to feel the lightest touch
Of beauty or of truth,
Rich in the thoughtfulness of age,
The hopefulness of youth,
The courage of the gentle heart,
The wisdom of the pure,
The strength of finely tempered souls
To labour and endure!
The blue of springtime in your eyes
Was never quenched by pain;
And winter brought your head the crown
Of snow without a stain.
The poet's mind, the prince's heart,
You kept until the end,
Nor ever faltered in your work,
Nor ever failed a friend.
