The original Disgaea: Hour of Darkness did something that few games can accomplish: It turned a kooky, unabashedly low-budget Japanese game into a cult hit. A series of spiritual follow-ups did little to reignite the enthusiasm, but NIS saw fit to produce a sequel anyway. Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories is more -- much more -- of the same, which can be quite a double-edged sword, especially in a strategy RPG.
Disgaea 2 follows the path of all the other NIS SRPGs, with its stumpy Japanese cartoon characters running around on a grid making quick work of one another. Building up parties is simple and fast, but it's awfully easy to overdo it and end up having to manage an army. Not to mention having to grasp the variety of systems and features -- the Geo Panels, the Dark Assembly, the Item World dungeons -- that all add up to a game that will siphon away your time, like it or not. You won't be blown away by the quality of the graphics, either, as those are still low-res, low-detail, and blurry up close, but provide colors like green and blue this time.
Fact is, the preceding paragraph describes both Disgaea games perfectly. Disgaea 2 adds only one significant new feature to its gameplay: the ability of stacked characters to attack. In Disgaea you could lift a character above another's head, and then throw that lifted character across the map. You could build whole towers of characters by strategically throwing and stacking characters. In the sequel, these piles of people can actually attack and function as one, sending an enemy up the chain and racking up damage (into the millions of hit points) along the way. Otherwise, anyone familiar with the original will have no problem at all jumping back in, though there remains a large amount of reference text to read.
Part of what made the original game's story so enjoyable was its turn of convention: you played Laharl, a smart-assed demon kid who knew he was hot stuff and wouldn't let anyone steal his thunder. In Disgaea 2, you're Adell, a good-natured kid who wants to beat down a demon lord and turn his family back into humans because he's the only one who can. He gets wrapped up in the demon world, so he gets to deal with all the same stuff Laharl did, but the charm just isn't there anymore. Adell is your regular good guy, and none of the other characters really help him become anything more than that.
Nothing in the story grates as much as the "dynamic" between Adell and his unlikely companion, the demon princess Rozalin. Much of their early conversations follow this dialogue tree, starting with Adell: "I'll protect you!" "But I'm your enemy!" "I don't care, I'll still protect you!" "But I'm your enemy!" Teenagers are usually bad at communicating, but these two come off downright mentally ill. After a revelatory plot point, they eventually smarten up, but by then the story is hardly worth caring about. And the humor just isn't as grand as it was in the original, either, no doubt due to the change in publishers and localization teams.
Rarely will you feel like you're playing Disgaea 2, just Disgaea 1. Again. And that can be just as awesome as always, because the core game is still fast, fun, and wholly satisfying to anyone who digs grid-based battling. But when only little things that don't affect the big picture have been changed, not much is worth commendation as a sequel. Apparently, this is what three years gets you.

Solutions for Chapter 5 Problem 33E
Significance of speculation
Speculation is significant in the software because it increases the instruction parallelism. In this a reorder buffer is used, in which the instructions are kept which are waiting for the instruction to complete its execution. To improve the resource usage the instructions are executed out-of-order. When an instruction is added to reorder buffer its input dependencies are determined. Speculation is used to overcome the constraints imposed by control and data dependencies.

Thank you Eric. I will try to be at the meeting. I know how hard Mark and Cindy work and it seems as if they, and especially Mark, take blame for problems that occur.

by AVA News Service, May 8, 2014
Residents of Anderson Valley:
For those of you who don't know me, my name is Eric Arbanovella. My wife Cindy works as a Nurse Practitioner at the Anderson Valley Health Center (AVHC). I am a stay-at-home dad and a volunteer driver with the Anderson Valley Ambulance Service. Previously, I was a software engineer and manager.
Cindy and I are firm believers in the essential role AVHC should play here. However, since Judith Dolan retired as AVHC's full-time executive director in 2011, the AVHC board of directors has hired three part-time executives to manage the clinic: Diane Agee, executive director; Dave Turner, CFO; and Lucresha Renteria, Chief Operations Officer. Under this management, critical systemic problems at AVHC have reached a stage where continued inaction will cause the clinic to either fail outright or cease being able to provide acceptable patient care.
I wrote a confidential letter discussing these problems to each of the AVHC board members on March 28, 2014. I have received only a polite but noncommittal response from the board.
I have no choice but to make public my discussion of six serious systemic problems the clinic faces. I ask for your assistance in making this information known to our community.
What's Broken at AVHC
1. Inadequate hiring practices
Since Dr. Jack Power's retirement several years ago, AVHC has had only one medical doctor on staff, Dr. Mark Apfel. Despite this, AVHC has not hired a single general practice doctor to work at AVHC despite expanding clinic hours and responsibilities. With Dr. Apfel's increasing age and continued depth of involvement with AVHC, it must be obvious to all parties concerned that AVHC needs an additional staff physician. Without another staff physician, AVHC faces a crisis once Dr. Apfel retires.
Cindy is now sole provider at least half of the day on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and she often works alone when Dr. Apfel is away. Without a medical doctor on-site, AVHC patients that require critical advanced care have no choice but to wait for the ambulance or risk personal transport to Ukiah or the coast. This increases strain on the volunteer Anderson Valley Ambulance Service and significantly degrades the health of the Valley.
Hiring Shannon Spiller as a Physician Assistant improved patient care somewhat. But when the clinic's long-time RNs (Judy Nelson and Anjes de Ryck) retired last year, AVHC administration appeared not to have prepared to hire replacements, thus leaving the Health Center without a permanent RN for 6 months. This dramatically increased all providers' workloads as their responsibilities expanded to include filling all medications, storing medication orders, administering medications outside the Medical Assistants' scope of practice, contacting patients over the phone, triaging incoming patients, and handling a variety of tasks best suited to RNs.
Combined, these facts indicate that AVHC management is unable to perform one of its crucial functions, namely hiring providers and sufficient support staff.
2. Inadequate communication with community and staff
As Gene Herr's message to the board earlier this year pointed out, the promises that AVHC management has made to provide articles of incorporation, operating bylaws, financial statements, budgets, board agendas, or board meeting records to the community have gone unfulfilled. The only significant AVHC community outreach to my knowledge are the terse pieces written on behalf of the board printed in the Anderson Valley Advertiser last year, which raised far more questions than they answered.
This lack of communication extends inside AVHC as well. Cindy has had no HR reviews or annual performance reviews since starting at AVHC in 2007, nor is she aware of any extant functional review process. Staff meetings have almost entirely ceased. Management decisions are only discovered well after the fact and often appear not to be based on the recommendations of the full-time staff providing patient care.
3. Broken IT system
AVHC is now critically dependent upon its computers for all day-to-day operations. Despite this, AVHC's IT system has repeatedly and regularly failed due to the apparent inability of AVHC management to secure reliable and timely support for AVHC's computers. Significant IT problems have included periodic failure of the entire computer system; failure of individual staff machines, charting computers, printers, and vital sign station computers; and inability to correctly configure and deploy machines.
The most egregious example of this occurred when PG&E scheduled and reported a significant weekend power outage weeks in advance. Despite this warning, staff returned to AVHC on Monday to find the computer system completely dead. For most of that Monday the Health Center was barely able to function, all because no one involved had the foresight to plan for the outage by turning off computers in advance.
As with expanding the Health Center building on the cusp of a bad recession, switching over to an computerized clinical system without a functional plan for how to keep the computers working is probably another example of short-sighted decision making based on grant availability. However, unlike having too much unoccupied space in the AVHC building, the precarious nature of AVHC's IT system seriously undermines the care AVHC provides to the community.
4. Zero admin time for providers
It is common practice at both private and public clinics to block off small daily periods on medical provider schedules to allow providers to complete and follow up patient care. This is time to examine lab results, contact other health care providers, consult references and current research for complex conditions, review and revise patient charts, and most importantly, return phone calls to patients. These activities are fundamental to basic patient care and require paid time from the provider during working hours.
Until the last week, providers at AVHC had no time scheduled to perform these activities during the business day. The consequence is obvious: these things often aren't done, and patient care suffers. Providers have to find other time outside business hours to complete this work when possible.
5. Negligible day-to-day management
As with any business, daily events within the Health Center require prompt, direct responses for the clinic to function. This is the job of a clinic manager. Dr. Apfel and the other medical providers cannot do this job, as they are focused on patient care. The nursing staff cannot do this, as they are overwhelmed supporting the medical providers. The front office staff cannot do this, as they both have basic patient contact and record-keeping responsibilities and also lack the necessary scope to take executive action. AVHC's three part-time executives, all split between at least three clinics in the county, are not there most of the time.
As such, it is not an exaggeration to say that no one is actually running the Health Center on a day-to-day basis. I would say that AVHC is blessed with staff who know how to work beyond their job descriptions and are able to function independently. But it is only a matter of time before lack of oversight has extremely bad consequences for AVHC.
6. Kathy Corral's termination
Finally, I would like to reassert that no adequate explanation has ever been given for the reasons behind Kathy Corral's abrupt termination last year. The year before she was terminated as Dental Manager, Kathy proposed a long list of cost-saving measures the dental office could take to handle reduced dental income from the federal grant's required sliding fee scale for dental work. That list included the offer to reduce Kathy's hours by 20%. While Kathy completed all the items on that list that were under her control, the critical suggestions that required administrative action were apparently ignored, as were Kathy's repeated requests for financial reports. Moreover, no indication has ever been given to Kathy or to the public that federal grant funds were being used as intended to help offset reduced dental income.
What's more, the way in which Kathy was terminated was downright despicable. I believe some characterized the firing as corporate. A rational corporation would have gone to some lengths to preserve what knowledge Kathy had about her role, the dental office, and the community before letting her go, even if it had solid grounds to support termination. To my knowledge, AVHC did exactly nothing to preserve any of Kathy's knowledge. As such, a better description of her termination would be sub-corporate.
As no adequate explanation has been offered to the community, the only conclusion I can draw from the available facts is that AVHC management did nothing about dental finances until it was far too late for anything other than unnecessarily drastic measures. If that is the case, that alone seems proof of executive incompetence both in the reasoning behind and manner of Kathy's termination.
In conclusion, I apologize for the length of this letter, thank you for your consideration, and ask you to forward this to others who may be interested.
In my opinion, the board must hire a full-time, capable, and preferably local manager who consults medical providers when making critical decisions about their practice. Regardless, it is crucial for our community to discuss the future of AVHC.
The next board meeting is at 5:30 PM on Monday, May 19, 2014, at AVHC. The board has emphasized to me that communication with the community is something they need to improve. We can do our part by attending the meeting, speaking up, and holding the board accountable for the ongoing problems at AVHC. Please try to come if you can.
If you are unable to attend, consider writing the AVHC board (care of AVHC: PO Box 338, Boonville, CA 95415) demanding that they act to correct these problems immediately.
Otherwise, unless we act soon, AVHC is destined to fail.
Eric Arbanovella
Thank you Eric. I will try to be at the meeting. I know how hard Mark and Cindy work and it seems as if they, and especially Mark, take blame for problems that occur.
As we've found in Point Arena, Diane Agee could be a major part of the problem here. The kiss of death. The minute the Anderson Valley Health Center started rubbing shoulders with Redwood Coast Medical Center in Gualala, your troubles began.
Good letter of concern. I gave up on medical care on the South Coast (Gualala and Point Arena) the minute they sent me a drunk for a hospice attendant to attend my daughter's death. She was reaking of hard liquor, showed up at our door to attend my daughter's hospice… drunk! I fired her AND RCMC in Gualala, then moved my health care to Anderson Valley as a result. Diane Agee full of lame excuses.
Had a tick bite which needed attention and Anderson Valley was the only medical center locally which even recognized tick bites as being a medical reality.
I'm sorry, Tom Bertolli in Gualala writes fine prescriptions, but as a medical doctor, didn't suit our needs at all. I'd categorize him as an A-1 jerk. I saw him act badly to a grocery clerk one day in front of me at the Surf Super in Gualala. I asked, "Who was that asshole?" She responded, "That was no asshole; that was Dr. Bertolli." I told her, "I've got news for you. He's a doctor AND an asshole if you let him talk to you like that!" I had a friend whose life is ruined by his wife's addiction to the oxycodone prescribed by Bertolli, his pad at the ready, he'll prescribe any hard drug you want! One of the major abused of the AMA these days.
Separate yourselves from the Coast facilities and you'll do alot better! Who are these people on your board? Sounds like you all need to clear the decks. Not an impossibility.
Good luck. I'll be out of town for this meeting, or I'd go. Thanks for your effort.
Thanks… I'll ty to be there. I've really been seeing the stress on Mark, and didn't realize it's source.
I put a fair amout of time into the building of the clinic (my third), and would really hate to see it fail – for a number of reasons.
Thanks, Eric. I attended April's meeting out of a growing concern for the direction our Health Center has taken recently. Friends and neighbors sit on the board…and I am certain they want only the best for AVHC, but it's clear to me that we need a full-time, on-site manager who can find us the staffing we need. Local health care is too important to leave to part-time management.

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 23 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by chris excellent shower Very good quality shower. controls are very easy to use. only downside is the length of hose. Could be a lot longer. 13 November 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by boogie4 good quality Easy to install. works exactly as described. Good value for money 15 April 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Who Shower Easy to install various pipe entry options as a replacement shower You need good water pressure for powerful shower. Good product at very good price with Homebase. 08 March 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Looksreasonable Easy to fit Easy to fit and works well with a nice constant temperature when set. Would be five stars if the inlet fittings worked both sides rather than just the one 06 March 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Bedford Nige Dodgy power switch I bought one of these a while back and, as showers go, it's fine. Within a year the power switch spline snapped and just span round on the spindle. homebase changed it - no problem. The new one has just snapped, also within a year and I have taken some internet advice and swapped the two front dials over. At the present rate that will probably do me another 10 months or so. Then I'll have to replace it. This is such a common problem that there are firms on the internet specifically supplying replacement front covers for these showers. I won't buy another one unless they change the design 25 June 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by rachieb Excellent does what it says on the tin - but an electrician and plumber needs to fit properley. unless you are a jack of all trades and know what your doing! 14 March 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Walking Man Hope its as good as the last one Bought to replace a 20 year old Triton that had just about had enough. No doubt furred-up inside as the water is hard here. Chose the 10.5 kW version and glad we did. The water pressure here is not what it used to be. I suspect the pressure has been reduced as the condition of the supply pipes deteriorates and waste increases through leaks. Anyway, this shower works fine and gives good pressure at the required heat setting. Its been in about 2 months now and all the family are very pleased with it. 05 February 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by strawberri_shortcake Does What It's Meant To A standard shower with standard settings. Assembling the product was easy. Selecting the correct temperature and pressure settings is also simple. When the local water pressure is high enough the shower gives off ample power. The only slight downside is that I would have liked to have had a larger shower head as I think the shower is up to the job. 02 February 2012

Medical schools have various levels of selectivity (some are harder to get into than others), and both the quality of their clinical training and level of research are measured.

|Coordinates: 4°5′51″S 138°57′04″E / 4.09750°S 138.95111°E
|Jayawijaya Regency
Wamena is the capital town of the Jayawijaya Regency of Indonesia. It is the largest town in Indonesian Papua's highlands, in the Baliem Valley and had a population of 31,724 at the 2010 Census.[1] Wamena is the urban centre of a rural area housing West Papua's highest concentration of population, with over 300,000 people inhabiting the Baliem Valley and surrounding areas. These people belong to a number of related ethnic groups, the most prominent of which are referred to as Dani, Lani and Yali.
Because of its relatively isolated location, the main form of access to the town is air travel. Dimonim Air, Trigana Air, Aviastar Mandiri, Susi Air and Merpati serve the airport.
The town is also home to Persiwa Wamena football team, who play in Indonesia's premier league.
Wamena Airport[edit]
The only airport in the region that can accommodate the Indonesian Military (TNI)s Hercules airplanes was razed by fire on September 26, 2011; all buildings including the departure and arrival terminals were engulfed by fire.[2]
Wamena claims a broader variety of fresh fruits and vegetables than other regions in Papua. On early June 6, 2013, a modern market was built in the town center to allow traditional farmers to sell their harvests at a proper price.[3]
The largely Melanesian town is densely settled and has extreme rates of HIV infection, with a claim of 5,100 cases recorded by Antara News.[4]

AMD Radeon HD 7990 6GB Dual GPU Video Card Review
By: Shawn Baker | AMD Radeon GPU in Video Cards | Posted: Apr 24, 2013 4:01 am
Comment | Email to a Friend | Font Size: AA
TweakTown Rating: 97%Manufacturer: AMD
Temperature Test
The temperature of the core is pulled from MSI Afterburner with the max reading used after a completed run off 3DMark Vantage and the Performance preset.
Considering the two GPUs and the amount of 3D performance we're dealing with here, the temperature numbers don't look too bad.
You can see we're pretty much in line with the single GPU HD 7970 GHz Edition with just 1c separating them at idle.

Vt general fund revenues up, transportation down
MONTPELIER The state says that general and education fund revenues were slightly ahead of expectations in October while the transportation fund was just below forecasts.
Administration Secretary Jeb Spaulding said general fund revenues were about 1.75 percent ahead of projections. So far for fiscal year 2014, the revenues are up by just over half a percentage point.
The non-property tax education fund was almost 3 percent above expectations. Year-to-date, the education fund is about 0.8 percent above projections.
Transportation fund receipts in October were below expectations by just below 0.5 percent. But the year-to-date transportation receipts are about 1.15 percent above the target.
Spaulding said the state is pleased with the numbers but officials will remain vigilant for any unanticipated changes.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER The League of Women Voters of Vermont will be taking part in National Voter...

Autopsy: Christian Taylor had synthetic psychedelic drug, cannabis in his system when he was killed
Christian Taylor, the black, unarmed 19-year-old whose fatal shooting by an Arlington police officer last month garnered national attention, had used a synthetic drug that can cause hallucinations before his death, according to an autopsy report released Wednesday by the Tarrant County medical examiner's office.
The autopsy characterized the illegal psychedelic found in Taylor's blood, NBOMe, as a drug that's known to "cause distorted perceptions, agitation and hallucinations" and one that has been "associated with random and bizarre behavior in users." The autopsy report likened some of the drug's effects to those of LSD. Taylor's autopsy also indicated recent use of marijuana.
Taylor, an Angelo State University football player, was shot four times in the early morning of Aug. 7. Brad Miller, an officer in training, was one of six officers responding to a burglary call at a car dealership. He fired after Taylor reportedly rushed him. Surveillance video showed Taylor acting erratically before the shooting.
Taylor's death was ruled a homicide. Arlington Police Chief Will Johnson fired Miller four days after the shooting, citing Miller's failure to follow proper police procedures during the call. Police said at the time they expected to present the case to a Tarrant County grand jury.
Zhivonni McDonnell, a public information officer for Arlington police, said late Wednesday the department declined to comment: "The case will continue progressing through the criminal justice system."
Taylor's family could not be reached for comment Wednesday. Mike Heiskell, an attorney who represents the family, told WFAA-TV (Channel 8) that "regardless of what may have been in his system, this was still an unjustified death of a young man."
But John Snider, the attorney representing Miller, said in a statement that the autopsy report is "very significant evidence."
"In light of this crucial development we hope that Chief Johnson will reconsider his rush to judgment," he said in an emailed statement.
Snider had previously criticized Johnson, saying he only fired Miller to "appease anti-police activists."
Surveillance camera footage released shortly after the shooting showed Taylor at the dealership, at one point standing on the hood of a silver Ford Mustang, stomping on the glass and trying to rip it away, and eventually trying to climb inside. Taylor also drove his Jeep through the dealership's showroom window, though that's not shown on camera.
Taylor died from gunshot wounds to the neck, chest and abdomen, according to the autopsy. The report stated "all the bullets appear to have been fired in front of him," indicating Taylor was facing Miller when he was shot.
According to the U.S. Department of Justice and the Drug Enforcement Administration, the drug commonly known as "N-Bomb" that was found in Taylor's blood can cause agitation, aggression and visual and auditory hallucinations, among other health issues.
At least 19 deaths nationwide have been linked to a set of synthetic drugs known as the NBOMe compounds, according to the DEA.
A bill introduced in the Texas Legislature this year by Sen. Joan Huffman, R-Houston, added the NBOMe compounds and other substances derived from the same chemical structure to Penalty Group 1-A, which carries felony punishment.
That law went into effect Tuesday.
Taylor was arrested in 2013 on a misdemeanor drug possession charge. The charge was dismissed after he completed probation this summer.
His friends said they never saw him using drugs.
Legista Beckford, who was Taylor's close friend and teammate at Angelo State, said the budding defensive back was always the first person to say no to any kind of unsafe behavior.
"He was always the guy to be like, 'Put on your seatbelt,' or 'Be safe in my car,'" Beckford said.
Taylor's close friends from Mansfield Summit High School said he had specifically steered clear of narcotics.
"In front of my face, I've never seen him do drugs," said Sam Armardi. "Marijuana is probably the only thing anybody did in high school."
And after Taylor turned suddenly religious over the summer, his friends said, he seemed intolerant of even small vices.
"He was saying: 'You shouldn't be smoking. You shouldn't be doing this. You shouldn't be doing that. God is good. God is great,'" Armardi said.
Armardi said he had heard unconfirmed rumors that Taylor had used LSD with a friend one month before his death and had planned to use it again the night he was slain.
"Those were the only two times they did it, and we never heard about the drugs again until after he passed away," Armardi said.
Several friends recalled Taylor talking about running out of time, or being tired. Most assumed he was just worn out from football practice, or college stress.
"He told me he was a little depressed," said Jordan McHenry. "We were just wondering if he needed help."
Taylor didn't respond well to the suggestion.
"Jordan just called me thinking that I'm crazy and need help," he texted to his friends' group chat a few weeks before his death. "Are you crazy?? … I know I'm living right with God."

As you ended our video call,
You suited up,
Just another day in that god forsaken place,
As soon as you stepped off the plane it felt like being in an oven.
But hey,
What did you expect.
The boys and you all load up into the Humvee and take off with the rest of the Caravan.
Just another day.
Just another day…
There wasn't supposed to be an explosion.
There weren't supposed to be screams.
There wasn't supposed to be any blood shed.
It was supposed to be just another day.
But all of that did happen.
And you were taken away from me and Mom and Dad and our little sister,
In an instant.
You were supposed to come home.
We were supposed to celebrate your birthday together,
Our sister baked you a cake for when you came home.
But… now you can't,
And you won't,
Ever again.
Because you're gone.
And you can't ever come back.
But know that we love you,
Know that I love you,
Know that I loved you, My Brother.
Most Importantly know that we miss you,
every waking moment.
Because you're gone,
And we'll never see you again.
Did I tell you Mom and Dad still pay your phone bill?
They pay,
So that we can hear your voice on your voicemail recording when we miss you.
I call,

BLACK,RED and GOLD
Location---SOMEWHERE IN KÖNIGSBERG 1945 APRIL 9
Scene---A Dying German Agent/A Soldier`s thoughts/reflections just before death
On this periphery of life
Let blue jeans of my ice blonde Brenda wear me to marry with death
Fire will be her gown, ashes shall be my girdle, shattered is everything beneath
Smokes so discerned sprawling
Some will say it was a poetic corpse after so deadly the strife
Wrapped in unknown funerary fetes
My blood will be poured in cask of mimicks
A yawn concealing me in semicolon as I saw I was dying,
sickened of the sicks
All the ravens of sorcery lurking the corner in full stops
As if I knew nothing following the wisdom of Socrates
Boots and kilt emphasizing my lost treasure
At last the casket to embrace me from the provocateur
No persuasive argument will be my candy,
a keepsake solidarity in barter
A marked plot spewed by shrewd men
An aftermath velvet and a last squint of Prussia far and near
Death so dear only to see if the lady in red silk I loved has red roses
My dear Soviet plezhvadya
for the wide-brimmed black hat, red bloody eyes hers, a gunshot
,yellow mouthful venom of words oozing out in raucous abuses
Hatred carped in end and unend Olesya, good as gold my Olesya
Now the bastion they called bastards buccaneered before her epithet
Kaliningrad`s cloud full of black so black an obnoxious smoke
Davai! Davai! they shouted and again nemesis eavesdropped
Eagles died I know not if a death of glory as I felt I saw an 1871 gauntlet
That's my last shot of life before I became death`s forgotten lucky bloke
Vocabulary --1-Plezhvadya(Russian/Czech)- A Soviet dish
2.Davai!(Russian)--Let`s do it, Come on!
3.Obnoxious-extremely unpleasant
4.Gauntlet-An armored glove of the tectonic Knights
6.Barter-Exchange,Trade,Swap without use of money

To arise alone in a half complete bed
asymmetrically warm
half of what was once whole
A drowsy confusion
guides brown eyes to
the white letter
calmly resting in the mornings light
The beautiful present
written within the white
brings forth blurry vision
forgetting in an instant all that was to be
their future
He was already treding
his destiny that he
beckoned on himself
from early days
of tea and training
Of a frightening home
a loving brother
to a barren land
now eyes of hate
To have known
what was awaiting him
at the end of this road
and to keep walking
toward the beast
he had created
To die in the arms
of the one he'd raised
of the one he betrayed
was his fate
of that mournful day

Dear Dad
Why don't you love me?
The small brown eyed girl asked her father as he beat her at night,
then with a smile in the morning he'd scoop her up in his arms to play.
Why don't you love me?
The bigger brown eyed girl asked her father as he walked out and
never came back.
Why don't you love me?
The young brown eyed girl asked her boyfriend of two years,
As he walked out the same door her father did eight years before.
Never to return.
Why didn't you love me?
The older brown eyed girl asked her father at his funeral.
As she leaned over the edge of his casket and kissed him gently on the forehead,
Tears running down her cheeks.
Why couldn't you love me?
The oldest brown eyed girl asked as she lays Jasmine's and roses
On her father's grave.
Only a row down from her old boyfriend's,
With love that never dies.
And her question is answered in the wind,
As the answer is whispered in her heart.
How could you love me?
If you couldn't love yourself?

We made an oath
To stick to the code
We raised ourselves
Caught up on the block
It's called a trap
Lives up to the name
Just a few of the guys
We fought
We laughed
We cried
I lived they Died
Just a few of the guys
The axons keep churning
In my troubled mind

A young boy stands, surrounded by shadows
Within the midst of a glittering blade
He says he can't bare to see his morrows
Preparing for his final escapade
He indolently raises with a grin
This shining dagger with its deadly head
The boy is committing his dying sin
This glistening dagger is now blood red
The boy falters to the floor; He's now dead
He quickly realizes in disarray
He's awoken within a fiery spread
Punished for the being that he would slay
He's trying to pray for his salvation
But he's here for his deathless damnation

The undertaker prepped him voguishly
Like there was a party six feet below
The earth where anosmic maggots
Were tamed by steep fragrance
He is dead, he is dead
Of what use is a tinseling treasure
To the naively rich sands?
The gold plated casket glitters
In the mourner's eyes
How classy is death in its house?
A gang of aggrieved groupies
Hallowed to a one time
Shylock-baron unleashes its ruckuses
At the swanky funeral
They teemed tiny shell
At the casket and in a tick
The casket transmuted into
A gold plated basket
He is dead, he is dead
The bullets ran its errands
Through and through
But death was poker faced
The deceased wife face streamed
Down tears...The triumphant groupies
Prod the remains for mockery
Until wee in the day
When the police came for a sweep
The shylock-baron was in a feast-
Romance with the houseflies...
Until the groupies dispersed
He is dead, he is dead
He who dies once is lucky
But he who dies again has lost his soul
And would be damned
What was his crime?
That he was having
More than he needs.

At the crossroads where the devil lurks behind the old, dying tree,
near the cotton plantations that mold green and grey with age
turn to relics of the brutal Southern past.
Hear the southern bell sing her sweet song
to her Negro runner, as she watches him turn and blow her a kiss goodnight,
a Romeo and Juliet love affair,
that stops at the crossroads of black and white.
Near those run-down shacks is where she hid him,
till the night came overhead,
and that dirt road is were they left together,
on a big, white stead to the North,
till a shotgun blast silenced the night,
and ended the love that flew sweaty in the air,
like the death of a mockingbird.
The Devil himself took a soul back down to hell,
and the crossroads painted red with hatred and pain.
Dead young lovers hand and hand,
a picture painted in southern heat
on a Monday morning in a black and white newspaper,
written in black and white,
that's all it was, two colors that go good together.

I'm drowning under your ridicule
Sick and tired of listening to your rules
Fed up of being beaten black and blue
It's gone too far and now I'm leaving you
You got no right
to beat me up
This relationship's over
Now face the dust
No more a puppet
Dancing to your tunes
No more words hurting
Or cutting me through
You've crushed who I was
Took the soul out of me
I'm a phoenix in the ashes
And I'm setting me free
I'll spread my wings
And fly on the breeze
One day a Mr Wonderful
Will capture me
I can build me back up
Whilst you're on the ground
Learn to smile once again
With less pressure around

In response to Gary Rosenblatt's column ("Can We Still Speak To Each Other? Do We Really Want To?" March 22), we six rabbis of congregations on Manhattan's East Side wanted to share the news that we have forged a coalition to promote Jewish learning and Jewish unity.
For six weeks, between Passover and Shavuot, we will each have the opportunity to teach a chapter of Pirke Avot (Ethics of our Ancestors) at a different synagogue, in order to communicate to our congregation and the larger Jewish community that we each recognize that we all have something to learn from one another, regardless of denomination, gender or years in the rabbinate.
We hope that this new initiative, called the Torah Learning Coalition, will come to include even more synagogues for programs and study in the future where we, as a Jewish community can celebrate the richness of our tradition using the myriad of voices that practice it lovingly.
Anyone is welcome to come to any or all of the sessions. Please check with us or the hosting synagogues — Or Olam, Or Zarua, Park Avenue, Sutton Place — for details on the Thursday afternoon or evening programs.
There will also be a final siyyum where all of us are present on Thursday, May 30 in the evening. The details will be announced as we get closer to the date.
