  • Wasn't That a Mighty Day Galveston Hurricane Song Prompt Folk Song
    Wasn’t That a Mighty Day Galveston Hurricane Song Prompt Folk song lyrics are often flawed with respect to facts. This results from generations passing along verses which, though fraught with emotion, are sometimes lacking facts. Also, needing rhyming words may inject error into historical accuracy. The purpose of this prompt is to assess the accuracy of the lyrics of a popular song about the 1900 Galveston hurricane, Wasn’t That a Mighty Day? There are at least six errors/exaggerations among the verses listed below. After reading the account below, write a one page double-spaced essay describing your findings. I remember one September, When storm winds swept the town; The high tide from the ocean, Lord, Put water all around. Chorus: Wasn't that a mighty day, A mighty day A mighty day, Great God, that morning When the storm winds swept the town! There was a sea-wall there in Galveston To keep the waters down, But the high tide from the ocean, Lord, Put water in the town. The trumpets warned the people, 'You'd better leave this place!' But they never meant to leave their homes Till death was in their face. The trains they all were loaded With people leaving town; The tracks gave way to the ocean, Lord, And the trains they went on down. Great Galveston Storm Article Paraphrased from Wikipedia Information At the end of the 19th century, the city of Galveston, Texas was a booming city with a population of approximately 38,000 residents. Its position on the natural harbor of Galveston Bay along the Gulf of Mexico made it the center of trade and the biggest city in the state of Texas.

  • Annual Report 2018-2019 We Believe: a Commitment to Christian Community
    Annual Report 2018-2019 We Believe: a Commitment to Christian Community e Believe” is the theme for Southern’s $50 million Campaign for Excellence in Faith and Learning, the largest fundraising effort in our “Wuniversity’s history. That’s quite an undertaking. As a partner with Southern, you’ve played a significant role in our success to date. Thank you! And if the dollar amount alone isn’t enough to inspire pause and reflection, I often marvel at the beautiful simplicity of our two-word phrase connected with the campaign: We Believe. Southern isn’t immune to the confusion that comes from living in a sinful world. We experience headaches and heartaches when things don’t go as planned, whether it’s with budgets or buildings, students or staff. However, I am forever grateful to be leading a university that, despite these unavoidable distractions, works hard to remain true to its mission. Southern’s core values are rooted so firmly in the foundations given to us by Christ that during critical decision- making moments, the university isn’t easily swayed by the influence of popular opinion. When challenges present themselves, we listen, discuss, research, and react. But above all, We Believe. We Believe in our mission. We Believe in the potential and the calling God has for our students and staff. We Believe He will continue to bless, despite any obstacles or missteps. And We Believe wholeheartedly in our alumni, friends, and parents. I see that same unflappable commitment in you. You Believe, too. Hopefully, you can see that God is working on our campus and that you trust us to be good stewards of the Lord’s blessings.

    INDY ELEVEN POST-GAME QUOTE SHEET TAMPA BAY ROWDIES 1 : 1 INDY ELEVEN SATURDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2019 AL LANG STADIUM – ST. PETERSBURG, FL INDY ELEVEN HEAD COACH MARTIN RENNIE On the importance of tonight’s result … “I think it was a good result and an important point from a difficult game on the road, putting us in a good position going into Wednesday. It means that the top four is within our own hands, giving us a chance to get us a home playoff game provided we do well in the finale this week, so it was a good result overall.” On the play that led to Tampa Bay’s first half goal … “I think that was a big moment. Five minutes of stoppage time was too much for one injury, and it was really a harsh, harsh call on the penalty. We were really looking to be in a solid position going into the half at nil-nil, and we knew we could bring on players like [Tyler] Pasher, [Matt] Watson and others in the second half to give us a chance to get going. In the end we still managed to do that, but that meant it ended up in a tie rather than the win we were looking for.” On the team’s defensive display on the road … “I think we show a lot of effort and a lot of character. Sometimes on the road we’ve been a little too open and too expansive, but tonight we were more solid and stayed in the game and that allowed us to fight back.

  • Eric Clapton
    ERIC CLAPTON BIOGRAFIA Eric Patrick Clapton nasceu em 30/03/1945 em Ripley, Inglaterra. Ganhou a sua primeira guitarra aos 13 anos e se interessou pelo Blues americano de artistas como Robert Johnson e Muddy Waters. Apelidado de Slowhand, é considerado um dos melhores guitarristas do mundo. O reconhecimento de Clapton só começou quando entrou no “Yardbirds”, banda inglesa de grande influência que teve o mérito de reunir três dos maiores guitarristas de todos os tempos em sua formação: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck e Jimmy Page. Apesar do sucesso que o grupo fazia, Clapton não admitia abandonar o Blues e, em sua opinião, o Yardbirds estava seguindo uma direção muito pop. Sai do grupo em 1965, quando John Mayall o convida a juntar-se à sua banda, os “Blues Breakers”. Gravam o álbum “Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton”, mas o relacionamento com Mayall não era dos melhores e Clapton deixa o grupo pouco tempo depois. Em 1966, forma os “Cream” com o baixista Jack Bruce e o baterista Ginger Baker. Com a gravação de 4 álbuns (“Fresh Cream”, “Disraeli Gears”, “Wheels Of Fire” e “Goodbye”) e muitos shows em terras norte americanas, os Cream atingiram enorme sucesso e Eric Clapton já era tido como um dos melhores guitarristas da história. A banda separa-se no fim de 1968 devido ao distanciamento entre os membros. Neste mesmo ano, Clapton a convite de seu amigo George Harisson, toca na faixa “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” do White Album dos Beatles. Forma os “Blind Faith” em 1969 com Steve Winwood, Ginger Baker e Rick Grech, que durou por pouco tempo, lançando apenas um album.
