The image is of a police officer banging a criminal's head against a wall. One might imagine a less compassionate police officer, or an officer in a harsher, more crime-ridden environment, using such abusive tactics.
That was clever, for really I wasn't alone a bit! As soon as it was moonlight and that poor thing began to crawl and shake the pattern, I got up and ran to help her. I pulled and she shook, I shook and she pulled, and before morning we had. peeled off yards of that paper. A strip about as high as my head and half around the room. And then when the sun came and that awful pattern began to laugh at me, I declared I would finish it to-dav !

Out of one window I can see the garden, those mysterious deep-shaded arbors, the riotous old-fashioned flowers, and bushes and gnarly trees.

"No, stupid, to be sure not. Going to see the fellow thou spoke on." So they put on their hats and set out. On the way Wilson said Davenport was a good fellow, though too much of the Methodee; that his children were too young to work, but not too young to be cold and hungry; that they had sunk lower and lower, and pawned thing after thing, and that now they lived in a cellar in Berry Street, off Store Street. Barton growled inarticulate words of no benevolent import to a large class of mankind, and so they went along till they arrived in Berry Street. It was unpaved; and down the middle a gutter forced its way, every now and then forming pools in the holes with which the street abounded. Never was the Old Edinburgh cry of "Gardez l'eau" more necessary than in this street. As they passed, women from their doors tossed household slops of every description into the gutter; they ran into the next pool, which overflowed and stagnated. Heaps of ashes were the stepping-stones, on which the passer-by, who cared in the least for cleanliness, took care not to put his foot. Our friends were not dainty, but even they picked their way till they got to some steps leading down into a small area, where a person standing would have his head about one foot below the level of the street, and might at the same time, without the least motion of his body, touch the window of the cellar and the damp muddy wall right opposite. You went down one step even from the foul area into the cellar in which a family of human beings lived. It was very dark inside. The window-panes were, many of them, broken and stuffed with rags, which was reason enough for the dusky light that pe

again her use of pace, soacing and parenthesis makes the reader read how she is actually thinking it. the parenthesis highlight a private thought in her head. Its closed off. Her long pause or break after "but really" gives you her emotion same thing with her pause after "im more" she pauses agian this time in embarassment or bracing herself for telling something she thinks youll preceive as funny.
The longest pause comes after L B J even then shes slowing down the letters as if shes spelling it out in conversation. she doesnt use L.BJ. OR LBJ its L B J but back to the long pause after "l b j " its the longest as if shes waiting for the reader to figure it out on their own, put it together. and when you dont she says it quickly.

A series of miracles occured as Alban was on his way to be executed; eventually he was beheaded atop a hill of wildflowers after which the executor's eyes popped out so that he could not "enjoy" the fruits of his labor. The church of St. Alban's his said to be built at the spot where the head eventually came to a rolling stop:

The editor Ted Solotaroff wrote an essay called “A Few Good Voices In My Head,” in which he talked about managing this feeling of having an audience.
The author introduces testimonial from a reliable source to expand upon the idea of writing live for an audience.
I have many more voices in my head than I ever had before.
Very interesting thought process on how that person views that.
Does a thought need to be shared to exist
Thoughts are meant to be private and does not have to be shared to exist. Social media allows us to have control over what we want to tell the world. When I go down my feed on Facebook, I see to many random post that seem to be an irrelevant thought. Something that just popped into someone head and they thought they would share it. It is like having someone who can see all your interpersonal thoughts, which people use to fear, but now it's ourselves posting it.
Wisdom is higher than a fool can reach. I cease to wonder, and no more attempt Thine height t’explore, or fathom thy profound. But, O my soul, sink not into despair,Virtue is near thee, and with gentle hand Would now embrace thee, hovers o’er thine head. Fain would the heaven-born soul with her converse, Then seek, then court her for her promised bliss.
This personification of wisdom and virtue is similar to the biblical book of Proverbs, which uses the same literary device to describe wisdom. Because of the background we have on Wheatley, it is possible she had this in mind when composing the poem.
O thou bright jewel in my aim I strive To comprehend thee. Thine own words declare Wisdom is higher than a fool can reach. I cease to wonder, and no more attempt Thine height t’explore, or fathom thy profound. But, O my soul, sink not into despair,Virtue is near thee, and with gentle hand Would now embrace thee, hovers o’er thine head. Fain would the heaven-born soul with her converse, Then seek, then court her for her promised bliss. Auspicious queen, thine heavenly pinions spread, And lead celestial Chastity along; Lo! now her sacred retinue descends, Arrayed in glory from the orbs above. Attend me, Virtue, thro’ my youthful years! O leave me not to the false joys of time! But guide my steps to endless life and bliss.Greatness, or Goodness, say what I shall call thee, To give an higher appellation still, Teach me a better strain, a nobler lay, O Thou, enthroned with Cherubs in the realms of day! n/a
I really enjoyed readying this poem because it seems like Phillis was set on trying to find the things that interest her. she wasn't worried about the life of others . It also seemed like worried more about being patient because that's a virtue. not only that but goodness and salvation
O thou bright jewel in my aim I strive To comprehend thee. Thine own words declare Wisdom is higher than a fool can reach. I cease to wonder, and no more attempt Thine height t’explore, or fathom thy profound. But, O my soul, sink not into despair,Virtue is near thee, and with gentle hand Would now embrace thee, hovers o’er thine head. Fain would the heaven-born soul with her converse, Then seek, then court her for her promised bliss.
This whole stanza seems like she is striving to understand what is the defintion of virtue. she is trying to find the ways of life and find a way to understand
A fire was once within my brain; And in my head a dull, dull pain; And fiendish faces one, two, three, Hung at my breasts, and pulled at me.
In this poem, Wordsworth gives a voice to a character on the margins of society, ostracized by their community (in this case, a mentally ill single mother) - reminiscent of William Blake's poetic spotlight on characters like the Chimney Sweep or the Little Black Boy. These stanzas particularly stood out to me; his word choice and intense imagery provides an apt reflection on the harrowing experience of madness/mental illness. The image of madness being depicted as a burning fire inside the woman's brain, and of the ghoulish faces physically pulling at her body, paint a bleak portrait of a woman alone in the world with only her demons to pester her.
But soon Poblenou residents appreciated the nearly doubled amount of space that they now had to walk, play, and socialize. The resistance soon faded, and five more superblocks have since been implemented around the city; Salvador Rueda, the head of the Urban Ecology Agency of Barcelona, envisions creating 503 in total. The ultimate goal is to turn nearly 70 percent of Barcelona’s street space over to people. It’s a project that has attracted a lot of international attention, and some efforts in the United States to replicate the idea.
Interesting that all of the resistance soon faded after realizing they could use the space for so much more. A lesson to how that initial resistance can be abated over time and how culture shifts.

PRACTICAL EXPERIENCES AT ESU While at ESU, there are a number of ways to gain coaching experience. Serve as an assistant coach with a team for the entire season, take advantage of paid opportunities to serve as a head or assistant coach with area teams and even go to schools to present mental skills and drills to athletes, coaches and often entire student bodies.
A writer friend of mine suggests opening the jar and shooting them all in the head. But I think he’s a little angry, and I’m sure nothing like this would ever occur to you.
I love the way the author describes how to put peoples opinions to the side, and this small paragraph gives it a little bit of humor. To make yourself think that those negative thoughts can be put away like putting away a rat in a jar, can actually help so many people, like us students as well.
Very few writers really know what they are doing until they’ve done it. Nor do they go about their business feeling dewy and thrilled.
It's true because whenever I was writing, I starts out with nothing in my head, just writing some random stuff but later I will get the idea and try to correct them later on.
I’ve learned to do when I sit down to work on a shitty first draft is to quiet the voices in my head.
When writing her first draft she stop overthinking and lets her writing flow.
Then turn it all the way down and watch the frantic mice lunge at the glass, trying to get to you. Leave it down, and get back to your shitty first draft.
This one sentence, is the strong line for me. The main reason for this passage. It's letting us know that we all are usually the same when it comes to writing. We have the voices in our head that keep detracting us because there are telling us what they expect from us and this writing. We have to start form somewhere and let go of those voice and just start writing whatever comes up in your head. Make a shitty draft.
Suddenly, after much composting, you are in alignment with the stars or the moment or the dining-room chandelier above your head, and your body opens and speaks. Understanding this process cultivates patience and produces less anxiety.
I notice, and I'm not 100 percent sure, but I feel that the author Natalie Goldberg has come along way with knowing how to open up. To speak when you want to say something. Joining in the conversation that the others are talking about so you can feel part of it and not left out. But to know this things like she wrote"It takes a while for our experience to sift through our consciousness." We need to live in order to start to share those moments and feel good about it.

In a fiery blaze. The first to suffer Were the people on the land, but before long 2310 It was their treasure-giver who would come to grief
honestly this actually gave a picture in my head about how terrifying everyone must have been. it is really sad how everyone has to suffer for someones choices. and its sad to say that the world we live in today is like that. with all the shooting that currently happening how mother nature is giving us hurricanes and stuff like that. its sad that we are all are getting affected by this things. when it comes to someone steeling the treasure the innocent are the first ones to go until the one that actually stole the treasure comes up front to see if they can spare his life. that's sad and pathetic in my opinion.

The cast of characters is so convoluted that early editions shipped with full-spread mappings of who was who, to help you keep it straight in you head.
I'm not trying to read a book that has a mapping of who is who. I would be lost from the start. Too much can make it too complicated and cause you to loss interest before you start the book.
Your writing is very clear to understand. To me what you have written sounds like the life of every human on this planet. What I pulled most from reading was every person sets this image in their head of what being successful and being put well together looks like. But in the end what about all the other emotions we carry, Don't we have the write to show this as well? And through out your writing you put good reflections to the examples you stated. And until the end you more so added the strength and experience you have gone through to get there.. That kind of optimistic push is what made it strong, and when reading it I believe many others like myself were in absolute agreeance. I didn't catch many grammar mistakes, or punctuality mistakes. But all in all I enjoyed reading your piece and think you put well thought and examples into your piece.

He deserves this! Because he looked him up in the tomb with his wife the cat was the reason that she was discovered. The cat not only led him to murder or at least enrage him too, but it also succeeded in taking away his life.
"The damage is done. No one can undo it," Miller told Turner in court. "And now we both have a choice. We can let this destroy us, I can remain angry and hurt and you can be in denial, or we can face it head on - I accept the pain, you accept the punishment, and we move on."

D] would suddenly slide into the room, creeping up to Mandy and resting his head on her chest, right in the middle of some important talk. "I'm thirsty," he would say, in imitation baby-talk.

Frankie looks nothing like DJ, but when he pokes his head from behind the hanging foliage of the willow, Gene feels a little shudder-a flicker, something. He clenches his jaw.
Is Frankie talking to something inside his head??
And in fact he feels it again, now. He presses the pads of his fingertips against his brow. Emotional trauma, his mind murmurs, but he is thinking of D],
This seems really important that he feels the same sensation in his head and is driven to think about DJ

the Negro is a sort of seventh son, born with a veil, and gifted with second-sight in this American world
The phrase "born with a veil" might appear to indicate a lack of vision, but that is not the case. The phrase refers to the superstition that a child born with a caul (part of the amniotic sac) over their head will be gifted with supernatural gifts. In this case, Du Bois uses "second sight" as a metaphor for the split between his identity as a black man and as an American.
In July, Alexander Uss, governor of the vast Siberian region of Krasnoyarsk, said it was simply “pointless and maybe even harmful” to attempt to fight the wildfires that cloaked his capital city in a toxic cloud of smoke.
Days later, President Vladimir Putin sent in the army and even Donald Trump took notice, offering his Russian counterpart U.S. help to battle the blazes. Governor Uss has since reversed his position, and is joining the fight against what Greenpeace Russia says are on track to be the worst Siberian forest fires on record.
Temperatures in June and July were the hottest ever charted globally, with parts of Siberia where the fires are concentrated reaching 10 degrees Fahrenheit (6 degrees Celsius) above the 30-year average from 1981 to 2010. The resulting dry conditions fed fires that torched more than 7 million hectares (17 million acres) of Siberian wilderness in just two months. Since the beginning of the year, fires have consumed more than 13 million hectares—an area larger than Greece.
“I don’t remember a situation where the fires burned this long, and I’ve been in forest management since 1972,” said Pyotr Tsvetkov, who runs the forest fire lab at the Sukachev Forest Institute in Krasnoyarsk. “There aren’t many fires, but they are over a huge territory and the smoke covers hundreds of kilometers. There’s no air to breathe in Krasnoyarsk and the smoke has made it to the Urals.”
Many of the fires appear to have been started by people along the region’s logging roads, with cigarette butts the leading culprit. Critics say government inaction allowed the situation to spiral out of control, blaming chronic underfunding and a 2015 decision to set up “zones of control.” Despite their name, these were effectively areas where the government wouldn’t try to control conflagrations.
Before the military promised manpower and equipment, the state’s aerial forest protection agency was vastly outgunned. With just 3,000 firefighters and 24 aircraft, it mobilized to extinguish less than 4% of the forest fires.
Russia has now declared a state of emergency in the Krasnoyarsk and Irkutsk regions—covering an area larger than India—as well as parts of two others. Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev ordered a raft of measures to revise how the country protects its forests.
“It’s crucial in the fight against fires that they provide enough money,” Grigory Kuksin, the head of Greenpeace Russia’s fire department, said in a statement. “Only then can Russia protect against catastrophic fires next year.”
Many residents lack faith in the government’s ability to intervene successfully. Andrei Grigoriev, who edits the I Love Krasnoyarsk Facebook community, said the apathy of local officials before the Kremlin took notice was telling.
“I had to stop my morning runs, because I didn’t want to smell the burning taiga,” Grigoriev, 55, said. “Yet the governor calmly justified not fighting these massive forest fires in his native land by saying they’re far off and even beneficial. Then the world noticed and Moscow woke up, and now Governor Uss says he wants to put the fires out.”
Uss has argued that relying on rain to extinguish remote fires is standard practice internationally. This week, he declared a “breakthrough” in fighting the blazes and noted that they didn’t burn down any settlements in his region. Even so, over 900,000 hectares in Krasnoyarsk continue to burn. These unchecked fires are destroying millions of hectares of trees in the world’s largest forest, a critical carbon sink, and could further accelerate global warming.
“As carbon builds in the atmosphere, the energy needs to be released and that results in more extreme weather,” said Oksana Tarasova, head of the World Meteorological Organization’s Atmospheric Research and Environment Department in Geneva. “The biomass burning in Siberia is part of this pattern.”
Russia is finally waking up to the threat of climate change, which Putin in 2017 joked could be beneficial for Russia given its reputation for cold weather. The Economy Ministry is drafting a plan for adapting the economy to increasing climate-related events such as forest fires.
For now, Krasnoyarsk’s best hope of assistance might not come from the military or the U.S. (whose help Putin declined), but the weather.
“We’re waiting for rain,” said Tsvetkov, from the fire institute. “Fires this powerful won’t be extinguished by even a strong downpour, they need rainy weather, but that’s not in the forecast.”
matters are pairs,
Is this where the idea of duality grows from? Many western philosophers think in the context of pairs and not a free flow like some eastern philosophers. That may not make sense but in my head I think I know what I mean.
If perceptual experiences can arise from infer-ence, then the Rationality of Perception is true
This is a bit beyond me, honestly. I'm having trouble wrapping my head around how perceptual experiences (rather than perceptual judgments) can arise from inference, despite reading this whole section.
Digital literacy is not about the skills of using technologies, but how we use our judgment to maintain awareness of what we are reading and writing, why we are doing it, and whom we are addressing.
This excerpt brings to mind a video-editing course I taught at a local art college. The students came from various backgrounds and skill levels, so I had to access their individual approaches to storytelling before we could even attempt an assembly of clips. We watched a lot of films from different genres and countries. Our discussions about how frames are stitched together to form "visual grammar" revealed that no two editors assemble a film the exact same way. Mastering the skills of visual communication allowed the students to than work toward mastering the software; but had I concentrated on just teaching them the mechanics of editing (which my faculty head insisted on) there would've been less compelling edits and more of the same cookie-cutter results. We also kept a careful eye on our student "audience" responses to help analyze what worked and what didn't. The culmination of all this was a focused deconstruction of how movies are spliced together to form the experiences that we enjoy.
He noticed that the dogs salivatedshortly before they were given food. He discovered that when the bell was rung at repeated feedings, the sound ofthe bell alone (a conditioned stimulus) would cause the dogs to salivate (a conditioned response).
I've heard that our heart rate increases prior to physical activity as a conditioned response. Our body knows that it's going to need to perform respiration more quickly, so it gets a head start. I'm not sure if this is truly a conditioned response or a natural phenomena.

Piggy did eat Farmer Bland, He ate him up from head to toe, Chewing the pieces nice and slow.
I read this as irony and survival of the fittest.
Chewing the pieces nice and slow.
Notice the emphasis on nice and slow. Pig was doing this with no remorse, and so the Framer Bland could necessary feel what was one in Pig's head.
That Piggy had a massive brain. He worked out sums inside his head, There was no book he hadn’t read, He knew what made an airplane fly, He knew how engines worked and why.
It is seen that the wisest one is the darkest one. I can not help to feel a dark aura in the pig.
Piggy did eat Farmer Bland, He ate him up from head to toe,
The pig decided to eat the farmer because he knew that it was his life on the line. So instead of him being eaten, he ate the farmer instead.

I want to know particularly what the good chance is you propose to give me. I am doing tolerably well here. I get twenty-five dollars a month, with victuals and clothing; have a comfortable home for Mandy,—the folks call her Mrs. Anderson,—and the children—Milly, Jane, and Grundy—go to school and are learning well. The teacher says Grundy has a head for a preacher. They go to Sunday school, and Mandy and me attend church regularly. We are kindly treated. Sometimes we overhear others saying, “Them colored people were slaves” down in Tennessee. The children feel hurt when they hear such remarks; but I tell them it was no disgrace in Tennessee to belong to Colonel Anderson.
The Civil War and Emancipation granted not only freedom for Jourdon and his family, but also money for living and opportunities for better life such as education for children and churches. Not to mention, it is surprising how, Jourdon do not look upon his old master as a disgrace and is proud of what they have done for him and it is also sad for me because even though laws were establish to annouce equality for Blacks, people still are in slow progress in accepting the new world .
Abbot Edwin, and Abbot Wulfgar succeeded to the abbacy
An Abbot is "a man who is the head of an abbey of monks." based off Oxford Dictionary, and the abbacy is the term of office, kind of like presidency.
The year 1900 was not the first to upset schoolmasters. Copernicus and Galileo had broken many professorial necks about 1600; Columbus had stood the world on its head towards 1500;
Interesting how Adams uses words/phrases with negative connotations to describe the effect that new ideas and new technology/design has on himself and others. "Upset schoolmasters", "broken many professional necks", "stood the world on its head". Does Adams intend to evoke negativity in relation to these, or illustrate the potential pain that the death of the old and birth of the new can have on those accustomed to the past?
I am doing tolerably well here. I get twenty-five dollars a month, with victuals and clothing; have a comfortable home for Mandy,—the folks call her Mrs. Anderson,—and the children—Milly, Jane, and Grundy—go to school and are learning well. The teacher says Grundy has a head for a preacher. They go to Sunday school, and Mandy and me attend church regularly. We are kindly treated.
Civil War and emancipation change Jourdan’s life and The life of his wife and children.

Jourdon and his family are living a better life after the Civil war. He was no longer enslaved and he, as well as his family, were living a fairly well life. Jourdon was able to earn a wage, and his children were able to receive an education and attend church.

he circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these united Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States, that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. — And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.
The First Day by Edward P. JonesIn
ve connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their Public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected, whereby the Legislative Powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & Perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.
In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these united Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States, that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. — And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.

Until my great-grandfather threw a sack over her head and carried her off.
Though her great-grandmother was wild enough to not marry what the narrator meant with this line was that her great-grandfather was the one to get to her head and carry her off as his wife.
Mama was never good at pictures. This is a statue of a famous general who lost an arm, And this is me with my head cut off.
Emphasizing what her mom's abilities with the camera was which by the sound of it, doesn't sound very good. Is always nice to describe so readers can have a sense of what is it like.
but I think this is a Chinese lie because the Chinese, like the Mexican, don’t like their women strong.
I find this line is powerful because in many other cultures men are often to be the head of the house, someone who does all the work and the one we should count on and women can never be better than a men

Until my great-grandfather threw a sack over her head and carried her off.
This could be used two ways, one way he actually smacked her, the other way is that he knocked some sense into her.
After taking the Self Diagnostic Utility (SDU) test, my moral purpose most aligns with ‘Virtue’. The SDU describes someone with this moral purpose as someone who is focused on being the right person. I was relieved to hear this, as I felt my motives were in line with my overall goal in life- which then trickles into how I operate as leader. I truly believe that this creates a sense of authenticity but also trust, which can go a long way when leading others.
One of the strengths listed was “you are trustworthy and have probably found your way to a leadership role”. This statement tells me that honesty and integrity are valuable characteristics of a leader and solidifies how I strive to be as a person.
In the article First Know Yourself, Then Your Team, it states “The lack of fit between a leader’s archetypical role and the context in which he or she operates is a major cause of team and organisational dysfunctionality and executive failure” (Knowledge, 2014, para. 10). This tells me that it is necessary to be authentic. While it is important to be able to adapt your leadership style to that of your team (maturity level), it is more important to remain true to your moral self. As corny as it may seem to some, doing the right thing- morally is the most important thing. I need to feel as though I can lay my head on my pillow with a clear conscience and sometimes that doesn’t always line up with the priorities of the places I have worked in the past. Perhaps that is why I ended up in the Human Services field, it is not as result-driven as it is client-driven. For me, it was important to have my work be in line with my moral compass and my priorities. I do not think that this makes other priorities a bad thing, just simply different. The world needs people driven by different priorities in order to sustain some balance in the work force. I thought the SDU was a very useful tool, the questions were worded in such a way that it allowed for honest answers. You didn’t feel as though you were going to be seen as a “bad person” for choosing answers where the priorities seemed out-of-line with society’s idea of good or bad.

In some cases there are indeed changes in the motor ability so the answer is yes. The question is then followed by the ‘’maximum motor function achieved’’ but the answer to that question is limited to only four options and sometimes the changes that I come across in the follow up visit is not really included in those four options e.g. sitting or standing with support or even head control improvement in some cases.

“Discipline” by Dead Prez (2000), for a good reminder once in a while.
The overall idea of discipline is where you have to practice and train yourself to have it. Dead Prez repetitively said "its going to be alright."He purposely mentioned this particular line because its one thing that everyone as to keep in mind. It does not matter where you are in life, or how bad of a situation you're in, remember that line. Don't feel like its the end of the world, nothing in life is set to last that way just keep your head up.

Le Jeune ends his report by describing some aboriginal superstitions. A piece of burned leather is rubbed upon a sick man’s head, to drive away the [Page 2] manitou. The Iroquois sometimes use the calcined bones of a newly born infant, sacrificed by them, for charms, especially to secure success in battle.
This piece is interesting because the people are actually interested in learning about native american culture
Moreover, praise communicates that our acceptance of a child comes with strings attached: Our approval is conditional on the child’s continuing to impress us or do what we say. What kids actually need from us, along with nonjudgmental feedback and guidance, is unconditional support -- the antithesis of a patronizing pat on the head for having jumped through our hoops.
I agree to this because having a good support system is a really big deal. It motivates children more.
After the people had all emerged into the Fourth, or White World, they saw the water continuing to rise in the Third World beneath them. Big Water Creature pushed her head through the opening in the reed. Her curly hair floated on the water, and lightning flashed from her black horn and her yellow horn. First Man asked Big Water Creature why she had come. She said nothing. But the Coyote named First Angry cam
The concept of entering better and better realities to reach a "perfected" destination reminds me of the hozho philosophy. Through entering into better and better realities, the flaws of the last can (hopefully) be cleansed.
Haashchʼééłtiʼí lay a perfect buckskin on the ground with its head facing the west. On the buckskin First Man lay the turquoise figure of a girl with her head to the west.
The perfect buckskin is mentioned throughout these tellings and is a representation for the natural world of nonhuman beings and their relationship to the people.
In the Third World, there was a time when men and women had lived apart for a long time. During that time, some women had used animal horns or long stones or bird feathers for sex. Now, in the Fourth World, some of those women were pregnant. One woman who had used an antelope horn gave birth to a child with no head. The people held a council and decided that this baby would be abandoned. It was left to die in a gully. But it lived and grew to become Déélgééd, the Horned Monster.
It is interesting that in this telling there is so much emphasis on gender and sex, especially for this bit. When men and women were apart, women strayed toward more taboo and heathenish behaviors. As uncovered earlier, men might have been associated more with the justice of logic where women were more emotional. These women subsequently gave birth to demons as we would recognize them today. This shows a great necessity for man and woman to stay together to remain on a path of balance and success.
The Fourth World
I'm name is Veronica and I'm Navajo and I was so excited that this is our first assignment! I'm a proud Navajo and learn everything that is Dine' (Navajo) from my Shima' (Mom). As far as the fourth world, from what I was taught by my Shima' their is also a fifth world! At the beginning of these readings it was stated that their are many different versions of the Navajo creation story, from what my Shima' (Mom) taught me their is a fifth world. Many of these stories especially the ones about the coyote, changing woman and first man and women are similar. For me I grew up in the city but my family and me traveled back and fourth to the reservation where my Sanii' (Grandmother) lived. Growing up Dine'( Navajo) in the city was very odd. I grew up not going to church or believing in a Western God but believing in the Holy people and Diyin ( God). My Shima' (mom) taught me that everything is alive. The sky, the wind, the soil and everything has a soul. Even insects. I was not taught in a Heaven or a Hell or that someone died for my sins. I was taught that to live in a state of Hozho. Meaning to walk in beauty. If my head and my heart are in a place of harmony that I have accomplished Hozho. Meaning to walk in beauty aka to walk in a happy place. When we die, we go back into the ground because this is where we started from and then we are reborn again as Dine'. In a way Western beliefs believe we live in another life but in heaven.
“The women think they can live without us,” he told them. “Let us see if that is true.”
More or less, this paragraph is risible. It surprises me, sometimes, just how stories are created and what went through one's head to have rationalized these set of interactions and decisions.
But it lived and grew to become Déélgééd, the Horned Monster.
I am curious on how a monster can be horned with no head.

Mrs. Kember’s husband was at least ten years younger than she was, and so incredibly handsome that he looked like a mask or a most perfect illustration in an American novel rather than a man. Black hair, dark blue eyes, red lips, a slow sleepy smile, a fine tennis player, a perfect dancer, and with it all a mystery. Harry Kember was like a man walking in his sleep. Men couldn’t stand him, they couldn’t get a word out of the chap; he ignored his wife just as she ignored him. How did he live? Of course there were stories, but such stories! They simply couldn’t be told. The women he’d been seen with, the places he’d been seen in... but nothing was ever certain, nothing definite. Some of the women at the Bay privately thought he’d commit a murder one day. Yes, even while they talked to Mrs. Kember and took in the awful concoction she was wearing, they saw her, stretched as she lay on the beach; but cold, bloody, and still with a cigarette stuck in the corner of her mouth.
I like how though this paragraph is about a man, he is ultimately unimportant, and used as an unusual tool to explain the character of his wife. The sentence is immediately unusual, with a man 10 years younger than his wife, it implies he is a trophy husband, flipping the trope on its head. Though her husband is described as an enigma, it ultimately just makes her more of a mystery. Who is this woman who "owns" (as it is portrayed with trophy wives) this devilishly attractive man?
Perhaps it was extravagant.
The hat almost seems to have a magical property of transferring her mother, and her class' way of thinking from their "head" onto hers. By seeing the way she looked in the mirror, a foreign "charming girl" who looked incredibly upper-class, she is reminded of her position in society and accepts the thinking of her class.

He dived again, but I miscalculated the direction he would take, and we were fifty rods apart when he came to the surface this time, for I had helped to widen the interval; and again he laughed long and loud, and with more reason than before. He manœuvred so cunningly that I could not get within half a dozen rods of him. Each time, when he came to the surface, turning his head this way and that, he cooly surveyed the water and the land, and apparently chose his course so that he might come up where there was the widest expanse of water and at the greatest distance from the boat. It was surprising how quickly he made up his mind and put his resol

This is from journalist exaggerations and junk science. The IPCC's own worst case is a scenario where we can still feed everyone through to 2100 but with reduced food security.
See Box 8 of chapter 3of the 2018 IPCC report
I summarize it as:
This is one of their scenarios from chapter 3 of the 2018 report. There is nothing remotely like extinction or end of civilization in this scenario. We can still feed everyone as well, though with less food security. It is still a world with much of our natural world still here, the majority of the species survive, not a desert. However it is a world we would not want to head for, with the corals nearly all gone, many areas of the world facing problems, severe loss of biodiversity and increasing rather than decreasing world poverty by 2100.

This is mainly because school funding is so local. The federal government chips in about 8 to 9 percent of school budgets nationally, but much of this is through programs such as Head Start and free and reduced lunch programs.
A significant increase in the federal government spending on education also increases their power and say in our publics schools. Many do not like the idea of allowing our government to have an even heavier influence on what our children are learning and becoming. So the question is how do we distribute opportunity equitably with out needing the government to regulate.

The mother out of pure indulgence took me up, and put me towards the child, who presently seized me by the middle and got my head in its mouth, where I roared so loud that the urchin was frighted, and let me drop, and I should infallibly have broke my neck if the mother had not held her apron under me. The nurse, to quiet her babe, made use of a rattle, which was a kind of hollow vessel filled with great stones, and fastened by a cable to the child’s waist.

The door opened, and there entered to us, quietly, the most remarkable-looking man that I had ever seen. Judging him by his figure and his movements, he was still young. Judging him by his face, and comparing him with Betteredge, he looked the elder of the two. His complexion was of a gipsy darkness; his fleshless cheeks had fallen into deep hollows, over which the bone projected like a pent-house. His nose presented the fine shape and modelling so often found among the ancient people of the East, so seldom visible among the newer races of the West. His forehead rose high and straight from the brow. His marks and wrinkles were innumerable. From this strange face, eyes, stranger still, of the softest brown–eyes dreamy and mournful, and deeply sunk in their orbits–looked out at you, and (in my case, at least) took your attention captive at their will. Add to this a quantity of thick closely-curling hair, which, by some freak of Nature, had lost its colour in the most startlingly partial and capricious manner. Over the top of his head it was still of the deep black which was its natural colour. Round the sides of his head–without the slightest gradation of grey to break the force of the extraordinary contrast–it had turned completely white. The line between the two colours preserved no sort of regularity. At one place, the white hair ran up into the black; at another, the black hair ran down into the white. I looked at the man with a curiosity which, I am ashamed to say, I found it quite impossible to control. His soft brown eyes looked back at me gently; and he met my involuntary rudeness in staring at him, with an apology which I was conscious that I had not deserved.
I find this description of Ezra Jennings fascinating - there appears to be something about him that is reminiscent of the Indians, though he does not appear to be Indian himself. I wonder if this description somehow reflects cultural prejudices of English people towards colonial peoples more generally at the time.
“I complain of a new disease, Mr. Franklin, of my own inventing. I don’t want to alarm you, but you’re certain to catch it before the morning is out.” “The devil I am!” “Do you feel an uncomfortable heat at the pit of your stomach, sir? and a nasty thumping at the top of your head? Ah! not yet? It will lay hold of you at Cobb’s Hole, Mr. Franklin. I call it the detective-fever; and I first caught it in the company of Sergeant Cuff.” “Aye! aye! and the cure in this instance is to open Rosanna Spearman’s letter, I suppose? Come along, and let’s get it.”
This conversation is very humorous, I like it very much! The slily servant invented the interesting "detective fever", and his friend Franklin also talked with him tacitly. This made me feel the wonderful friendship between them.
with remarkably beautiful hair
That is an interesting thing to notice. Betteredge, the other narrator who had described her had said: "A dark, keen, clever face, and a nice clear voice, and a beautiful brown head of hair counted among her merits." He didn't draw any particular attention to the hair.
But compare the hardest day’s work you ever did with the idleness that splits flowers and pokes its way into spiders’ stomachs, and thank your stars that your head has got something it MUST think of, and your hands something that they MUST do.
Here I can sense some sarcasm towards the gentlefolks in Victorian times,Britain for their idleness and their careless cruelness (Many of them are Christians so here is also hypocrisy). Meanwhile. Outside the state, the way the British army treat colonized people like Indians in this novel is like how the gentlefolks treated insects.

“Come, if we must die, let us meet death the noblest way; and ’twill be more like Oroonoko to encounter him at an army’s head, opposing the torrent of a conquering foe, than lazily on a couch, to wait his lingering pleasure, and die every moment by a thousand racking thoughts;
He is saying it is better to die honorably and violently in battle than to "die" by the torment of his love-sickness
He had scarce arrived at his seventeenth year, when, fighting by his side, the general was killed with an arrow in his eye, which the Prince Oroonoko (for so was this gallant Moor called) very narrowly avoided; nor had he, if the general who saw the arrow shot, and perceiving it aimed at the prince, had not bowed his head between, on purpose to receive it in his own body, rather than it should touch that of the prince, and so saved him. ’Twas then, afflicted as Oroonoko was, that he was proclaimed general in the old man’s place: and then it was, at the finishing of that war, which had continued for two years, that the prince came to court
Oroonoko's foster-father saves his life in battle, taking a fatal arrow in the eye that had been aimed at him. Oroonoko then becomes the new general, finishes the war, and comes back to court.
Those who want slaves make a bargain with a master or a captain of a ship, and contract to pay him so much apiece, a matter of twenty pound a head, for as many as he agrees for, and to pay for ’em when they shall be delivered on such a plantation: so that when there arrives a ship laden with slaves, they who have so contracted go aboard, and receive their number by lot; and perhaps in one lot that may be for ten, there may happen to be three or four men, the rest women and children. Or be there more or less of either sex, you are obliged to be contented with your lot. Coramantien, a country of blacks so called, was one of those places in which they found the most advantageous trading for these slaves, and thither most of our great traders in that merchandise traffic; for that nation is very warlike and brave: and having a continual campaign, being always in hostility with one neighboring prince or other, they had the fortune to take a great many captives: for all they took in battle were sold as slaves; at least those common men who could not ransom themselves. Of these slaves so taken, the general only has all the profit; and of these generals our captains and masters of ships buy all their freights.
This detailed account of how the slave trade works reveals how the institution of slavery dehumanizes everyone involved.

The narrator then goes on to explain how the slave trade works. Those looking to purchase slaves make a deal with a ship’s captain to pay him so much per slave.

Why do mountains leap like rams and hills like lambs? To be honest, I'm not quite sure what Thoreau meant here. My understanding is that Thoreau uses the curve of the sheep jumping to compare the shape of the mountain, which is a figure of speech. Because the ram jump higher, corresponding to the mountain is steep. And lamb jump lower, corresponding to the hill is more moderate. I like this way of description, it looks very vivid and interesting.

I feel like Thoreau is saying that he doesn't feel like he is in the right place or at home when he is in a city. I feel like when he said I turned my head towards the woods, where was better known he meant that he loves nature and spends most of his time there so that is where he feels truly at home.

Mr. Fairweather, what I would like to do from looking at materials that you have provided earlier, is take you to your concern of Section I of the proposed resolution. At the bottom of your presentation as well as in the accompanying documents you stress your concern about Section l. I would like to ask you from your perspective if the clause remains essentially in the form it now appears what are the technical consequences of that clause in relation to the protection of rights and freedoms? Mr. Fairweather: They are so serious that I could not imagine this Committee letting Section l go unamended, That section as drafted would challenge, in my opinion, the rest of the charter, and I suspect somebody is going to be getting an amendment. It is, as I said, turning our backs on the international and national jurisprudence, and it is very broadly drafted. Why we do not use the language that is well accepted now and has been ratified by Canada, for the life of me I have no idea. This is a strong statement but I have strong feelings. I am absolutely committed to the entrenchment and the patriation and the goals. They are wonderful goals for this country at last but why not go for something better. Mr. Epp: From your experience as a Commissioner of the Human Rights Commission, could you give us examples of if this proposed resolution had in fact been in effect with the prohibitions in Section 1, can you give us some specific examples of the restrictions it would have given or caused both to rights and freedoms and also to the Commission? Mr. Fairweather: Yes. One was given last night, if I know correctly, by the Minister of Justice for Canada. It might be that generally accepted standards in this country for mandatory retirement, the anti-discrimination part having to do with age, could be challenged and rendered meaningless as a reform mechanism, because the generally accepted standards now are quite illiberal, if I may use that word in this place. [Page 12] The generally accepted standards for Canada are to push people out at certain ages, I greeted this charter with excitement when I saw that the Government of Canada had included age, but when I see the language of Section 1, I wonder. Another message that surely cannot be forgotten is that the generally accepted standards in Canada in 1940 and 1941 were to take Canadians whose offence was that they were of Japanese origin. In the Wellington Street Archives last night while you were doing something else I went to the festival of the 100th anniversary of the Chinese in Canada. They came to build the railway and I am as shocked as I know senators and members are to remember that people who are enshrined and rightly, in our history were perpetrators of the Chinese Exclusion Act, the Chinese $50 a head tax act. The Chinese people in this country were not allowed to vote in a province I think until after the Second World War. It was Mr. Diefenbaker who gave the Native peoples the right to vote in the late 1950s. I am not saying that a government that follows this one would, but it could, because those were I guess until reform came the accepted standards. This document is to be entrenched, enshrined, as a statement to the people who have their loyalty to Canada. Mr. Epp: Do I understand you correctly, sir, that if the document before us were to be enshrined, entrenched, that an incident like Canadians of Japanese origin and the removal of these people from various parts of Canada, their prohibition of freedoms at that time, that in fact that kind of action would still be possible under the charter in its present form. Mr. Fairweather: I think, Mr. Epp, my duty is to warn you, and I have given some examples, age and these other offensive matters could be put in jeopardy. I am not saying they will but they could. I think most of this charter is really a superb piece of work, but I cannot see why Canada wants to turn its back on accepted international standards and language that has been adjudicated. That is why I am being a bit fussy. It clouds the rest of a noble document.

The header element is used at the top but inside the body element. It is visible on the page. It is most often used once but some pages include separate headers.

I'm wondering how many courses across campus are taught "to the book" - they find the book first, then structure the course around that - rather than choosing a text (or other medium) after going through the process of mapping learning objectives to assessments/activities. If you're starting with the textbook first, it's pretty likely that some course objectives are not achieved and the types of learning activities present in the course are uninspiring or irrelevant.

But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again, we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s speech is one of my favorite. It is a passionate wake up call that still is very true to this day. It is reminding us to take action.

Henry Ford, Charles Kettering and the Fuel of the Future by Bill Kovarik provides a narrative of the political and economic factors related to the production and consumption biofuels like ethyl alcohol. Ethyl Alcohol was labeled as the fuel of the future by both Ford and Kettering because of its high-octane performance, clean-burning, anti-engine knock capability, and its ability to be sustainably grown by American farmers. Unfortunately, even though it was hailed by scientists and automotive industry leaders, it was never able to supplant petroleum to power modern transportation. Kovarik describes both the economic and political factors in the 19th and 20th centuries which impeded ethyl alcohol from ever realizing that future.
It is interesting that many of the same arguments for and against alternative energy that were made in the early 20th century are still being made at present Kovarik wrote: “opponents have seen ethyl alcohol fuel as a scheme for robbing taxpayers to enrich farmers, as turning food for the poor into fuel for the rich, as compounding soil erosion problems, and as a marginally useful enhancement or replacement fuel for a transportation system that is poorly designed in the first place. Advocates have seen in alcohol fuels the potential for revolutionizing agricultural economics, for dispelling city smog, and for curbing the power of the petroleum industry over the economy”. There was also “research” that was published by pro-alternative fuel interest groups, and anti-alternative fuel interest groups trying to promote their point of view. One of the virtues of ethyl alcohol according to its supporter was to reduce U.S dependence on foreign oil, which was a theme in the 2004 and 2008 presidential elections.
In the mid 19th century, there were a variety of fuels available to the consumer. However, due to federal tax policy, the free market was not able to promote equal competition. An alcohol tax was levied in 1862 to discourage alcohol tax and raise funds for the federal government. The tax was not meant to apply to alcohol- based fuels, but it was never rescinded. This alcohol tax was not changed for almost 50 years. This tax is one of the main reasons as to why the petroleum industry was able to obtain a “head start” on mass production. By the time the Alcohol tax was removed, petroleum was less expensive than alcohol-based fuels and has remained so to present.
While there has been large amounts of interest in increasing the utilization of alcohol based fuels in the U.S. over the last 100 years, the same factors prevented the fuel from becoming accepted by the mainstream- it was slightly more expensive, there was concern about the agricultural impacts of production, and the oil lobbying group was very powerful. This comparison of the U.S. to the rest of the world is apparent when Kovarik wrote “By the mid-1920s ethyl alcohol was routinely blended with gasoline in every industrialized nation except the United States” (page 117). Kovarik concludes that “Practical techniques were well known to overcome most of the problems with alcohol as a pure fuel or in blends with gasoline. Fuel blends were economically successful in countries where oil was more expensive or where independence in fuel supply was seen as a political or strategic problem”. This was not the case in the United States. Even so, the question as to whether Ford and Kettering misjudged ethyl alcohol as the fuel of the future is still open for debate- they still could be ahead of their time.
I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked,
The poem started off with a very descriptive imagery to etch into the readers head while reading this poem.
Battery to holy Bronx
This poem is a journey, mostly around New York City, but also around the states. It's almost restless, how quickly it moves from very specific place to very specific place and paints a fantastically emotive picture. You get sucked into the movement, into the restless angst that ushered in the 60's.
The scene from Mad Men where Betty Draper goes to the Lower East Side to find one of Sally's friends just popped into my head... Sally's friend is a very gifted musician but has to live in the New York of which Ginsburg writes.
