  • Subjugation IV
    Subjugation 4 Tribulation by Fel (aka James Galloway) ToC 1 To: Title ToC 2 Chapter 1 Koira, 18 Toraa, 4401, Orthodox Calendar Wednesday, 28 January 2014, Terran Standard Calendar Koira, 18 Toraa, year 1327 of the 97th Generation, Karinne Historical Reference Calendar Foxwood East, Karsa, Karis Amber was starting to make a nuisance of herself. There was just something intrinsically, fundamentally wrong about an insufferably cute animal that was smart enough to know that it was insufferably cute, and therefore exploited that insufferable cuteness with almost ruthless impunity. In the 18 days since she’d arrived in their house, she’d quickly learned that she could do virtually anything and get away with it, because she was, quite literally, too cute to punish. Fortunately, thus far she had yet to attempt anything truly criminal, but that didn’t mean that she didn’t abuse her cuteness. One of the ways she was abusing it was just what she was doing now, licking his ear when he was trying to sleep. Her tiny little tongue was surprisingly hot, and it startled him awake. “Amber!” he grunted incoherently. “I’m trying to sleep!” She gave one of her little squeaking yips, not quite a bark but somewhat similar to it, and jumped up onto his shoulder. She didn’t even weigh three pounds, she was so small, but her little claws were like needles as they kneaded into his shoulder. He groaned in frustration and swatted lightly in her general direction, but the little bundle of fur was not impressed by his attempts to shoo her away.

  • Songs of the Vietnam War Lyrics
    The Limits of Power: The United States in Vietnam Name:______________________________________________ 2 Online Lesson Songs of the Vietnam War Lyrics Introduction: Throughout history, the strong feelings raised by the sacrifices, ideals, heartbreaks, and triumphs of war have often been expressed by poets and artists in songs. Songs that best cap- tured the strong feelings of Americans became very popular and lived on long after the details of the conflict were forgotten. Whether they expressed patriotism and national ideals such as inThe Star-Spangled Banner and The Battle Hymn of the Republic, sacrifice and heroism such as inWhen Johnny Comes Marching Home, or disappointment and loss such as All Quiet Along the Potomac Tonight, these songs have become part of the history. The Vietnam War was no exception. Below is a small selection of the many songs written by Americans, Vietnamese, and French about the Vietnam War. Lyndon Johnson Told the Nation By Tom Paxton (1965, folk) < http://youtu.be/JQqapCkf4Uc> I got a letter from L.B.J., it said, “This is your lucky day. It’s time to put your khaki trousers on. Though it may seem very queer, we’ve got no jobs to give you here, so we are sending you to Viet Nam” chorus And Lyndon Johnson told the nation, “Have no fear of escalation, I am trying ev’ryone to please. Though it isn’t really war, we’re sending fifty thousand more to help save Viet Nam from Viet Namese.” I jumped off the old troop ship, I sank in mud up to my hips, And cussed until the captain called me down, “never mind how hard it’s raining, Think of all the ground we’re gaining, just don’t take one step outside of town.” Every night the local gentry slip out past the sleeping sentry They go out to join the old V.C.

  • If You Are Holding This Letter.”
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Sona H. Hodaie for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in History presented on May 23, 2013. Title: “If you are holding this letter.” Abstract Approved: Marisa Chappell, PhD “If you are holding this letter” a historical fiction novella that educates readers about the historical significance of World War II: what it was like to be an American soldier fighting in Europe and how the war effected the personal lives those on the home front. Through first-person narration, this thesis exposes readers to the horrors of the reality of war and soldiers’ miseries; the shifting gender norms in the United States; the passionate patriotism both at home and abroad; and the love between two seemingly insignificant young people as they navigate the tumultuous times of WWII through their devoted letters. This thesis consists of fictional prayers and letters between an American soldier fighting the war abroad and his girlfriend living in Chicago, Illinois. The soldier, Thomas Hartley, is first stationed in France and later, Poland. His girlfriend, Donna Mayes, gains her first employment opportunity working in a war production factory. Through letters and prayers from Thomas and Donna, the devastation of WWII is apparent in the lives of both soldiers and civilians at home, but, as the story illustrates, the war also brought great joy and fulfillment in some cases.

  • SATSANG's Third Studio Album ​KULTURE​ to Be Released March
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 02/01/19 SATSANG’s third studio album KULTURE to be released March 22nd ​ ​ A follow up to their Billboard charting album Pyramid(s) ​ Satsang has announced their third full-length studio album set for release on March 22nd, 2019. Titled Kulture, the album features eleven new songs that display the band’s ​ ​ diversity, depth, and continued evolution of their sound; a unique blend of soul, folk-rock, and hip-hop. Continually displaying their relevant nature in an era of cultural discontent, Satsang connects with its audience through the uplifting lyrics and conscious message found in their songs. Lead singer/songwriter Drew McManus emerges as a pacesetter and a leader in the conscious music movement through his hip-hop/punk rock work ethic along with the support of his peers. In this record, he channels the lessons of the great leaders and inspirations who came before; Nina, Hampton, Malcolm, and King. Says McManus, “I was drawn to revisit their work and lessons over the last year or two in writing this record.” However, the foundation of Drew's development is heard in the first voice on the record; that of his high-school art teacher who first gave direction to McManus' artistic nature. Those lessons culminate in Kulture and ​ ​ shine as inspiration for the listener. “The essence of this record was to breakdown and sift through the current state of our Country, and I suppose, my life. It is by far the strangest of times we have seen in a long while. I think the key and common denominator to all of the aforementioned people is that the work is celebrating righteousness rather than basking in the darkness.

  • George Anastaplo† Introduction This Article Is the Law Review Sequel to A
    SEPTEMBER 11TH, A CITIZEN’S RESPONSES (CONTINUED) George Anastaplo† Introduction This article is the law review sequel to a two-hundred page series of responses to the September 11th crisis published by me in the Oklahoma City University Law Review in 2004.1 That collection includes thirteen essays commenting (di- rectly or indirectly) on developments following upon the assaults in 2001 on New York City and Washington, D.C. Those essays (of 2001–2002) offered assess- ments of events as they developed, beginning with my talk on September 12, 2001. These thirteen essays were preceded in that series by three letters to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (on September 12, 13, and 17, 2001) and were followed by fifty-two letters to newspaper editors (from 1997–2003), and by three appendices providing background discussions. A critical aspect of my periodic discussion of American responses to the Sep- tember 11th challenge has been an awareness of how the United States has come to be regarded worldwide. It is obvious that considerable sympathy for Ameri- cans was at once evoked everywhere because of the shocking attacks in 2001. Also obvious, however, has been a steady deterioration since then in the stand- ing of the United States in the estimation of international public opinion. This is, in large part, it seems, because of the determinedly unilateralist manner in which we have conducted ourselves, especially with respect to Iraq. General Colin Powell, upon denouncing the harsh interrogations of terrorism-related prisoners that the Administration
