If you happened to have missed the 2012 Irish Club St. Patrick’s Day parade, you missed a good time. It seems like the parade grows each year, which is great. On behalf of the Irish Club, we would like to thank each and every club which participated. The event started off with the Pinellas County Sheriff ’s Department leading the way, followed by Clearwa- ter Mayor George Cretekos greeting the large crowd. There were several musical groups which walked down World Park- way Boulevard, including the Dunedin High School Scottish Highlander Band, the Dunedin Highlander Middle School Pipe Band and the St. Andrews Pipe Above, Irish Club Grand Marshall John McGaughey leads the 2012 Band of Long Boat Key.

  • Outside the Box: Creative Ideas for Common Equipment
    Outside the Box: Creative Ideas for Common Equipment Dr. Scott Klungseth, Director Beresford PRCE Thinking Outside-the-Box for Standards: Creative Ideas, Common Equipment Session is designed to help elementary/middle school classroom and PE teachers, and recreation professionals to experience “Out of the Box” activities to integrate hula hoops, scooters, and bean bags in meeting national/state standards. This equipment is common in programs – but many lack experience on how versatile this equipment is. Each activity is designed to help students succeed in all three learning domains. Each lesson has the potential for math, science, or language arts interaction. Many times in conducting professional development sessions for pre-school and elementary teachers, recreation leaders, and physical education teachers they indicate that they have many many hula hoops but do not know how to teach hula hooping or know other activities to use the hoops for. Additionally, they indicate that they have many scooters and noodles available to them but lack activities to integrate them. Below is a series of activities that can be created for general physical activity or specific physical education lessons. Many of which include standards, spelling, reading, and math lesson integrations. These are only basic descriptions. If you would like further lesson ideas please feel free to contact us at: [email protected] Hula Hoop Ring Toss With or without distance math integration This is an oversized ring toss game.

Awakened by the terrible news of the fire in the middle of the night, Mrs. Gipe had rushed the two miles from her house to the beloved historic church. She arrived in time to watch the roof collapse. More than 13 months later, on Oct. 28, Mrs. Gipe again stood with tears in her eyes as she gazed upon Our Lady of Refuge Church. It’s newly rebuilt now, and Bishop Joseph P. McFadden was there to dedi- cate it that day. “Praise God! Thanks be to God!” Mrs. Gipe exclaimed as parishioners made their way out of the church fol- lowing the Mass of Dedication. “We were able to rebuild, and we can cel- ebrate today!” For parishioners, the past year had been a long one, filled with grief over the loss, uncertainty about whether the church – a mission of Corpus Christi CHRIS HEISEY, THE CATHOLIC WITNESS Parish in Chambersburg – would be Thirteen months after a devastating fire at Our Lady of Refuge Church in Doylesburg, Father James O’Brien opens the doors to the rebuilt church Oct.

  • 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.
