The Charge of the Light Brigade
Alfred Tennyson, 1st Baron (1809–92)


HALF a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
"Forward, the Light Brigade! 5
Charge for the guns!" he said:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

"Forward, the Light Brigade!"
Was there a man dismay'd? 10
Not tho' the soldier knew
Some one had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die: 15
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them 20
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell 25
Rode the six hundred.

Flash'd all their sabres bare,
Flash'd as they turn'd in air
Sabring the gunners there,
Charging an army, while 30
All the world wonder'd:
Plunged in the battery-smoke
Right thro' the line they broke;
Cossack and Russian
Reel'd from the sabre-stroke 35
Shatter'd and sunder'd.
Then they rode back, but not
Not the six hundred.

Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them, 40
Cannon behind them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
While horse and hero fell,
They that had fought so well 45
Came thro' the jaws of Death,
Back from the mouth of Hell,
All that was left of them,
Left of six hundred.

When can their glory fade? 50
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wonder'd.
Honor the charge they made!
Honor the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred! 55

Who was the audience for President Obama's speech ?

Answers

Answer:

President Obama’s jobs speech on Thursday evening will take place in front of a joint session of Congress, underlining the coming legislative clash over how best to jump-start the nation’s flagging economy.

But the president will have many different audiences when he takes the podium in the House chamber at 7 p.m. (earlier than usual to avoid the start of the N.F.L. season).

The immediate success of the speech may be judged by how lawmakers in the chamber respond, though in Washington’s hyperpartisan atmosphere the reaction is almost certainly going to be negative from the Republican-controlled House of Representatives.

The challenge for the president — any president — in such speeches is to find a way to communicate a series of different messages to the many groups who will be watching.

Everyone will hear the same words. But within the speech, particular words will be signals to different constituencies.

And the tone of the speech will matter, too. Will the Obama who gives the speech tonight be the professorial one, methodically explaining the situation to the public? Or will he be the more aggressive, campaign-mode Obama whose rhythm and pace is quicker and more urgent? Or maybe a mix of the two?

Here’s a breakdown of the different groups that Mr. Obama will be talking to on Thursday night:

House Republicans. First and foremost, Mr. Obama will be putting House Republicans on notice that he intends to press them to pass his jobs package — and to use their refusal as a campaign issue if they do not take it up. Speaker John A. Boehner and his top lieutenants have for months demanded that Mr. Obama put his jobs plan on the table. Now, they will have to decide how to deal with it.

Reaction to the details of the president’s proposals that have already leaked out suggests that Mr. Boehner’s party intends to dismiss most of them. But again, the tone could matter. If Mr. Obama is combative, the legislative battle could be short and decisive. If the president extends a series of olive branches, there could be more of an effort to negotiate.

Independents. The White House has made clear that one of its chief goals with the speech is crafting an argument that independent voters will find reassuring.

The president’s victory in the 2008 election leaned heavily on convincing those middle-of-the-road voters that he was the best candidate to handle the economy. Since taking office, his popularity among that group has plunged.

To win them back before the 2012 election, Mr. Obama is hoping to make the case that he is the reasonable one in Washington, the one person willing to compromise and negotiate in good faith to get something done.

“The professional left.” For weeks now, there has been a steady drumbeat of expectations from liberal pundits and columnists who were once derided by Robert Gibbs, the president’s former press secretary, as “the professional left.”

It seems unlikely from the information we have so far that the president’s proposals will completely satisfy the most liberal of his supporters. But the size of the jobs plan — which could approach $400 billion — may help to quiet some of the president’s critics.

And his tone will matter with this audience, too — though in the opposite way. The more he chooses conciliatory language in talking to House Republicans, the less the professional left will be happy. If he chooses fiery rhetoric that will whip up his base, he could anger those Republicans in the House.

Look for a bit of both in the speech to satisfy both audiences.

The markets. Senior White House advisers have long said that they do not measure the president’s success by the daily ups and downs of the stock market.

The Whippoorwill
by Madison Julius Cawein

I.

Above lone woodland ways that led
To dells the stealthy twilights tread
The west was hot geranium red;
And still, and still,
Along old lanes the locusts sow
With clustered pearls the Maytimes know,
Deep in the crimson afterglow,
We heard the homeward cattle low,
And then the far-off, far-off woe
Of "whippoorwill!" of "whippoorwill!"

II.

Beneath the idle beechen boughs
We heard the far bells of the cows
Come slowly jangling towards the house;
And still, and still,
Beyond the light that would not die
Out of the scarlet-haunted sky;
Beyond the evening-star's white eye
Of glittering chalcedony,
Drained out of dusk the plaintive cry
Of "whippoorwill," of "whippoorwill."

III.

And in the city oft, when swims
The pale moon o'er the smoke that dims
Its disc, I dream of wildwood limbs;
And still, and still,
I seem to hear, where shadows grope
Mid ferns and flowers that dewdrops rope,
Lost in faint deeps of heliotrope
Above the clover-sweetened slope,
Retreat, despairing, past all hope,
The whippoorwill, the whippoorwill.

Children are human beings between the stages of birth and puberty, or between the developmental period of infancy and puberty. The legal definition of child generally refers to a minor, otherwise known as a person younger than the age of majority. Children generally have fewer rights and responsibilities than adults. They are classed as unable to make serious decisions.

A child may also describe a relationship with a parent such as sons and daughters of any age or, metaphorically, an authority figure, or signify group membership in a clan, tribe, or religion.

It can also signify being strongly affected by a specific time, place, or circumstance, as in "a child of nature" or "a child of the Sixties.

what should we /should not do during the flood?​

Answers

Answer:

There’s no telling how deep that water can be when a street gets flooded, so don’t ever risk it. Also, remember that people with families have to come rescue you if you’re stuck in floodwaters, so don’t create a life-threatening situation for yourself or others.

DON’T…

2. Don't Use electricity in a flooded home.

3. Don't Get in the flood water.

4. Don't Handle wild animals in the flood water.

It’s always best to leave wildlife alone in a flood event. Strays could carry disease and may become aggressive. This situation is unfamiliar to humans, so imagine how much this is disturbing the wildlife.

5. Don't Ignore flood warnings

6. Don't Neglect to assemble a flood safety kit.

7. Don't Leave utilities on and plugged in when you evacuate.

8.Don't Dress improperly.

Remember, flood water is dirty and filled with germs. Wear the right clothing if you’re forced to interact with it. Waders are great; shorts and t-shirts are not.

9. Don't Leave furniture and important belongings on the lowest level of your home or outside.

Explanation:

   We should  be aware of flash flooding. If there is any possibility of a flash flood, move immediately to higher ground. Do not wait for instructions to move.

Listen to local radio or television stations for up-to-date information.

Be aware of streams, drainage channels, canyons, and other areas known to flood suddenly. Flash floods can occur in these areas with or without such typical warning signs as rain clouds or heavy rain. If there is any possibility of a flash flood, move immediately to higher ground. Do not wait for instructions to move.

If local authorities issue a flood watch, prepare to evacuate:

Secure your lodgings. If you have time, tie down or bring outdoor equipment and lawn furniture inside. Move essential items to the upper floors.

If instructed, turn off utilities at the main switches or valves. Disconnect electrical appliances. Do not touch electrical equipment if you are wet or standing in water.

Fill the bathtub with water in case water becomes contaminated or services cut off. Before filling the tub, sterilize it with a diluted bleach solution (one part bleach to 10 parts water).

Do not walk through moving water. Six inches (15 cm) of moving water can knock you off your feet. If you must walk in a flooded area, walk where the water is not moving. Use a stick or pole to check the firmness of the ground in front of you.

Do not drive into flooded areas. Six inches (15 cm) of water will reach the bottom of most passenger cars causing loss of control and possible stalling. A foot (30 cm) of water will float many vehicles. Two feet (60 cm) of water can carry away most vehicles, including sport utility vehicles (SUVs) and pickups.

If floodwaters rise around your car, abandon the car and move to higher ground, if you can do so safely. You and your vehicle can be quickly swept away as floodwaters rise.

Simplify the expression:1+4+7+7k2+8k Science Mysteries: How Many Species Are There?You might think that after 200 years, the scientists who find, name, and describe Earth's species would be close to finished. But taxonomists, as organized as they may be, have no idea how many species Earth has. Nor can they even provide an educated guess. Although reporting over 16,000 new species every year, taxonomists still cannot predict how many more are undiscovered.In total, taxonomists have categorized and listed 1.2 million species on Earth. At this point, you would think scientists should be able to use the information they have gathered to make good predictions about how many species an ecosystem can support. This would help them make better predictions about how many species are left to identify. So far, however, the guesses seem to vary so greatly that it seems there is no good theory for making a prediction.One of the main problems is that most of the places that seem to have a lot of diverse species are in places that are hard to get to. One such place is the ocean, where scientists believe some 80 percent of Earth's creatures are hiding at depths too deep for us to study. In addition, many of the planet's most diverse areas are in remote places with few taxonomists. Despite all the unknowns, scientists have agreed that there are between five and 15 million species left to discover on Earth. This is a huge range, but whether it's five or 15, taxonomists clearly still have a lot of work to do.
