    A BETTER WAY FORWARD Tragic Hope Series - Part 5 Dan Burrell “A good name is better than precious ointment, and the day of death than the day of birth. It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting, for this is the end of all mankind, and the living will lay it to heart. Sorrow is better than laughter, for by sadness of face the heart is made glad. The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth. It is better for a man to hear the rebuke of the wise than to hear the song of fools. For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fools; this also is vanity. Surely oppression drives the wise into madness, and a bribe corrupts the heart. Better is the end of a thing than its beginning, and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. Be not quick in your spirit to become angry, for anger lodges in the heart of fools. Say not, “Why were the former days better than these?’ For it is not from wisdom that you ask this. Wisdom is good with an inheritance, an advantage to those who see the sun. For the protection of wisdom is like the protection of money, and the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the life of him who has it. Consider the work of God: who can make straight what He has made crooked? In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider: God has made the one as well as the other, so that man many not find out anything that will be after him.” Good morning Life Fellowship.

    36 MONDAY, JUNE 15, 2015 LIFESTYLE Gossip Frost doesn’t speak to Atomic Kitten enny Frost no longer speaks to her former JAtomic Kitten bandmates. The 37-year-old singer insists she wishes “all the best” for Liz McLarnon and Natasha Hamilton, but she is still unhappy that original singer Kerry Katona was brought back to the group because she was unable to take part in ‘The Big Reunion’ because she was pregnant with twins. She said: “I’m not in contact with them any more which is a real shame.”But I didn’t like how things were han- dled with the reunion and Kerry replacing me. I won’t say too much, but I think it could have been managed better. I wish them all the best though.” However, Jenny - who has daughters Blake and Nico, two, with husband Vicente Juan Spiteri and seven-year-old son Caspar from a previous relationship - has no regrets about not rejoining the band as she is very content with her family life. She added to Closer magazine: “I mixed emotions mixed always say everything happens for a reason and I feel me not returning to Atomic Kitten was Tommy Lee’s Tommy absolutely the right choice.”I love my life in Ibiza with my family. Going on a big tour with a girl band is just not for me anymore.” ommy Lee has “mixed” emotions about mixed emotions because I am happy, we are TM’tley Cr¸e’s final tour. The group are set all happy but I’m also really sad.” Meanwhile, to embark on their last-ever gigs and singer Vince Neil reflected on the band’s the ‘Girls Girls Girls’ hitmaker - who will be lift- three-decade career and admitted he feels ed 200ft out into the audience and about 60ft “bittersweet” and is bound to get “choked up” into the air - thinks it will hit him most when on stage.

  • CHAPTER IV FINDING and DISCUSSION 4.1 Finding 4.1.1
    CHAPTER IV FINDING AND DISCUSSION 4.1 Finding 4.1.1 Type of Grammatical Cohesion 4.1.1.1 REFERENCE According to Hasan and Halliday (1976:31), Reference is the specific nature of the information that is signalled for retrieval. In the case of reference the information to be retrieved is the referential meaning. Identity of the particular thing or class of thing that is being referred to; and the cohesion lies in the continuity of reference, whereby the same thing enters into the discourse a second time. There are three kinds of references: the first is personal references, the second is demonstrative reference, and the last is comparative reference. 4.1.1.1.1 Personal References According to Hasan and Halliday (1976:37) Personal reference is reference by means of function in the speech situation, through the category of person. The category of personal consists of three classes of personal pronouns, possessive determiners (usually called ’possessive adjectives’), and possessive pronouns. The examples of personal reference are: I, me, my, mine, you, your, yours, we, us, our, 30 31 ours, they, their, theirs, them, it, its, she, her, hers, he, him, his, one, one’s. Example: My husband and I are leaving. We have seen quite enough of this unpleasantness. (Hasan and Halliday, 1976 : 50) From That example, there are three personal references. The words are “My, I, We”. The word “My” is as possessive adjective. It means The speaker’s husband. Then the words “I” and “We” are categories as personal pronouns. The word “I” is refer to the speaker and the word “We” is refer to the speaker and her husband.

Drawing on the success of their non-celebrity counterparts, programmes such as Celebrity Big Brother, I a Celerit: Get Me Out of Here and Dancing With the Stars have become popular globally and, although arguably no longer at their peak, continue to attract large audiences and significant amounts of publicity.
