Belle Brittan on a Tour Library of Congress Belle Brittan on a tour 12 1 J 997 5969 BELLE BRITTAN ON A TOUR, At Newport, AND HERE AND THERE. “VIVE LA VIE!” Hiram Fuller “‘Tis life whereof our nerves are scant, Oh! life, not death, for which we pant; More life, and fuller, that we want.’” Tennyson. LC LIBRARY OF CONGRESS CITY OF WASHINGTON NEW-YORK: DERBY & JACKSON, PUBLISHERS, 119 NASSAU-STREET. 1858. Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1858, By DERBY & JACKSON, In the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the United States for the Southern District of New- York. E 166 PUDNEY & RUSSELL, PRINTERS, 79 JOHN-ST., N. Y. To Belle Brittan, WITH A FEW WILD FLOWERS FROM THE WOODS OF ILLINOIS. I send you flowers—wild flowers only— Oh, touch them, take them with a reverent hand! I gathered them FOR YOU, in wood paths lonely, A shrinking band. Belle Brittan on a tour http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbtn.00857 Library of Congress I send you wild flowers, faded tokens; You see the glory of their morn is gone; Each fragile censer, filled with incense, broken, Which flushed their dawn. I send you violets, all wan and shrunken, The purple wine from every chalice spilled; Their dewy eyes, which drank the sunbeams, sunken, Their soft life stilled. Poor little flowers! ye all bloomed and faded In chilly corners, where no zephyrs hide; Your narrow are of beauty shadows shaded, Until you died. No one to love you in the darksome forest; No lauding lip to e'er your beauty vaunt; Your life, with none to draw the sweetness from it, Was one long want. Thou, who dost gather from enchanted bowers The rarest blossoms which entrance the eyes, Has thy rich heart a home for these pale flowers, In pilgrim guise? Wilt take my flowers? From their faded faces No thrill of pleasure will your spirit glean? Not beautiful?—if born in sunnier places, They might have been. Oh, take my flowers! tokens from the giver Of all her being may e'er prove to you, A wayside blossom blighted: never, never, To bloom anew! Her life's aroma fainting, failing, dying, Will wander, breathing at your far-off shrine Love's warmer odor, from your being rising A thing divine! Chicago, May, 1858. To THE LOVELIEST LADY IN THE LAND, Whose Beauty is the Light of the World, A MELODIOUS MEMORY, A HEAVENLY HOPE, A PERPETUAL INSPIRATION, WHATEVER IS WORTHIEST IN THESE PAGES IS DUE, AND DEDICATED. Belle Brittan on a tour http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbtn.00857 Library of Congress A few friends, with whose wishes it is pleasant and easy to comply, have requested the publication of these hastily written Letters in book form. Although written on the run, they have not been “carefully revised and corrected by the author;” but, with the exception, here and there, of the substitution of a few “stars” in place of something better or worse, they re-appear “with all their imperfections on their heads.” They will doubtless receive unjust censure and undue praise; but I am too well accustomed to both, I trust, to be permanently injured by either. If I have committed errors in fact, in taste, or in sentiment, or written a word to wound a sensitive heart, I am sorry for it; and if the scattered leaves have given pleasure to any reader, it may be hoped that they will not be less welcome when gathered into—may I say, a bouquet?

BELLE BRITTAN ON A TOUR. LETTER I. Willard's Hotel, Washington, December 29, 1857. My Dear —: Belle Brittan on a tour http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbtn.00857 Library of Congress No matter why, or wherefore; but here I am in Washington, (a place not worthy of the name,) and have “had an interview,” as the phrase goes, with the bachelor President of this great Republic—the wifeless father of a great and growing family of thirty millions of people! What an inspiration of dignity in the consciousness of being the Head of such a nation! A man of authority, of patronage, and of power—one of the chiefest Chiefs of the civilized world.

    Greenland 2019 West Greenland Hunting in Greenland is the world’s largest island. Having a surface of 2.18 million, km² and only Greenland about 59,000 inhabitants it is one of the least densely populated regions in the world. The capital city is Nuuk, which has not more than 12,000 inhabitants. A large part of the country is always covered with ice, which can reach a thickness of 3,500m. About one sixth of the island is ice-free. Away from the coasts, the inland is dominated by inhospitable ice and cold deserts. Arctic climate prevails with maximum temperatures from 20 °C in the south to -5 °C in the north. In winter, lowest temperatures are around -50 °C. Hunting We are hunting in different areas winter and autumn, and in two different areas in autumn. areas: In winter, we hunt in a big area outside the concessions, its south of Kangerlussuaq, and is about 350.000 acres. Transport is easy with snowmobiles, so we can easily get around in the area. In autumn we have two concession areas (other outfitters cannot hunt there, but local hunters can go meat hunt in the areas). Both areas is unique, since area 9 is partially in the Inuit hunting World Heritage Site, and all of area 11 is in the World Heritage Site. Only our company and one other outfitter can offer hunts in this unique area where the Inuit started hunting 4000 thousand years ago, and where their old settlements and stone installation for driven hunts is still there.

Nine out of ten worries never turn out to be real problems. Don’t worry about something you can do nothing about and which may never happen. It’s a waste of mental energy. I confess I am a worrier. A friend who practises Buddhism, advised me some time ago to stop ‘projecting.’ I have found that advice really useful and try to put unnecessary worry to one side, in a ‘box’ in my mind. Cultivate optimism. Concentrate on the things you CAN do, rather than those you can’t. Focus on what you do well and try to steer from the negative. Optimists live longer and have better immune systems! Sometimes a moan does YOU good but does it do your listener any good? Keep the moaning to a minimum and try to leave them with a smile.

  • A Queer Analysis of the James Bond Canon

Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, FL May 2019 Copyright 2019 by Grant C. Hester ii MALE BONDING: A QUEER ANALYSIS OF THE JAMES BOND CANON by Grant C. Hester This dissertation was prepared under the direction of the candidate's dissertation advisor, Dr. Jane Caputi, Center for Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Communication, and Multimedia and has been approved by the members of his supervisory committee. It was submitted to the faculty of the Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters and was accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Khaled Sobhan, Ph.D. Interim Dean, Graduate College iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Jane Caputi for guiding me through this process. She was truly there from this paper’s incubation as it was in her Sex, Violence, and Hollywood class where the idea that James Bond could be repressing his homosexuality first revealed itself to me. She encouraged the exploration and was an unbelievable sounding board every step to fruition. Stephen Charbonneau has also been an invaluable resource. Frankly, he changed the way I look at film. His door has always been open and he has given honest feedback and good advice. Oliver Buckton possesses a knowledge of James Bond that is unparalleled. I marvel at how he retains such information.

  • I Love Metal Press Release.Docx
    Tony Iommi/Black Sabbath and Judas Priest backs #ILoveMetal – The world’s biggest ever metal-music charity prize draw. Visit - www.ilovemetal.co.uk Donated by international metal-music industry heavyweights such as Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Nuclear Blast, My Dying Bride, Laney, Epiphone, Earache, Sony/BMG, Razamataz, PRS Guitars, Live Nation/Download, 5BAM, Bravado, and UK Metal Merger resulting in nine incredible bundles, with over 1,000 items of ‘money-can’t-buy’ metal memorabilia, merchandise and rarities - #ILoveMetal is the world’s biggest ever metal-music charity prize draw. In partnership with Julie Weir/Music For Nations – the #ILoveMetal collection was collated by the UK Metal Merger ‘In Solitude’ single supergroup collaboration, again with the motivation of raising funds for the Stagehand Charity. Stagehand is the only UK charity that specifically helps music stage and road crew, and is dedicated to providing severe-hardship funding and mental health support for live events industry workers. The #ILoveMetal campaign is critical to supporting the ‘behind the scenes’ workers in the live music industry that, right now, are in crisis. Without them there won't be a live events industry, even when covid restrictions are lifted. Whilst providing the opportunity to win money-can’t-buy prizes, #ILoveMetal is a way for the metal community to come together to support live music (a cause very dear to our hearts and ears!) giving back to the people who make these life-affirming events happen. This is not an auction! It is a series of prize draws for each available bundle. With an auction, only fans with the deepest pockets get involved, whereas with a prize draw the whole international metal community can participate through £5 entries via the #ILoveMetal Crowdfunder page.
