  • Poems Written by Students of St Genevieve's High School, Belfast During A
    Poems written by students of St Genevieve’s High School, Belfast during a residency with poet, Kate Newmann. Supported by the Department of Foreign Affair and Trade. Tierna Crossan MYSTERY Yesterday I was doing homeworK in my room, and the window was closed. I was sitting with my little sister and I smelt my granny’s perfume. I looKed, and I was confused. I said to her Nicole, did you spray perfume? She said, No. Because she was colouring in, I acted as if it was nothing, but I smelt it again – as if someone was spraying it in front of me, but no one was there. I listen, and process every word. Silence chooses me. The apparition is a butterfly showing itself to me. The difference between bone and breath is solid and air. MY GRANDA He is a ten pound note that is hidden behind the lyrics of a song. He is a crossword puzzle book that fills in all the blanKs for you. He is a downfall of rain, followed by sunshine. He is a rich seafood chowder bubbling in a pot. He is a raging flame that wouldn’t go out. He is his own song that he had written for himself. LANZAROTE The words sink deep under the water. The blazing sun glaring down at me is beyond my reach. The heartbeat speeds up with all the excitement. My pocket’s distended because of al the seashells I collected. I grow tired of the heat pounding down on me. The longest voice is the man in the restaurant telling the specials.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.

  • 3 Simple Steps to Finish the Lyrics of a Song You're
    EPISODE 005 3 Simple Steps to finish the lyrics of a song you’re stuck in. See the show notes at www.storiesinsongs.com/005 ​ [00:00:00] Hey and welcome back to the Stories in Songs Podcast. ​ This is the podcast for musicians, songwriters, and storytellers who want to change lives and create meaning through the stories they tell and the songs they sing. Now today I want to talk with you about a problem many of us have to face at one point or another: How the heck can we finish the lyrics of a song we’re struggling with? Should we just throw it out? Ignore it? Give it to someone else and admit defeat? But hey, that song is yours. You can’t give up when there’s a bump in the road. After all, if that song would not be important to you, you wouldn’t worry that much about finding the right words. You would just get it out there and move on. But you want to finish the job yourself because that is your song. But how? Maybe you’ve already got all the music written, including 100% of the vocal melodies, but you need help with the lyrics. And you try to find the right words that help you finish that song. It feels like this song is haunting you. There’s this unfulfilled feeling, and when you’re like me, I get really frustrated with myself when I can’t cross something off from my to-do list that I wanted to achieve that day or week.

The Leadership Catalyst: A New Paradigm for Helping Leadership Flourish in Organizations Abstract This thesis codifies a leadership paradigm that was born out of my experience as a naval officer, a corporate manager, and a director in a non-profit program and is informed by my study of leadership over the last 30 years—culminating in my completion of the Organizational Dynamics program. The basis for my model is a declaration that a good leader is someone who develops, creates, or otherwise inspires leadership abilities or improved performance in others—a leadership catalyst. My premise is that by becoming leadership catalysts, people can become force multipliers in their organizations by helping to exponentially improve the organization’s leadership capability.

  • Download Minutes to Midnight Full Album Minutes to Midnight
    download minutes to midnight full album Minutes to Midnight. Damned if they do, damned if they don't -- that was the conundrum facing Linkin Park when it came time to deliver Minutes to Midnight, their third album. It had been four years since their last, 2003's Meteora, which itself was essentially a continuation of the rap-rock of their 2000 debut, Hybrid Theory, the blockbuster that was one of the biggest rock hits of the new millennium. On that album, Linkin Park sounded tense and nervous, they sounded wiry -- rap-rock without the maliciousness that pulsed through mock-rockers like Limp Bizkit. Linkin Park seemed to come by their alienation honestly, plus they had hooks and a visceral power that connected with millions of listeners, many of whom who were satisfied by the familiarity of Meteora. They may have been able to give their fans more of the same on their sophomore effort, but Linkin Park couldn't do the same thing on their third record: they would seem like one-trick ponies, so they'd be better off to acknowledge their advancing age and try to mature, or broaden their sonic palette. Yet like many other hard rockers, they were the kind of band whose audience either didn't want change or outgrew the group -- and considering that it had been a full seven years between Hybrid Theory and Minutes to Midnight, many fans who were on the verge of getting their driver's license in 2000 were now leaving college and, along with it, adolescent angst. So, Linkin Park decided to embrace the inevitable and jumped headfirst into maturity on Minutes to Midnight, which meant that poor Mike Shinoda was effectively benched, rapping on just two songs.
