I try not to be that guy and I try to believe this, that 10% of most ethnicities my own included suck and the other %90 are good human beings but I want to see how others think. This is when you factor in everyone in a lump that 10% being people who molest kids people who beat their wives with a closed fist, people who use coke or heroin, people who break into homes, people who rob or commit other felonies etc.

Manorbier

Perched high above a peaceful beach,
with splendid views across the coast,
come visit Manorbier with me,
a castle haunted by old ghosts.
Baronial home of Norman style,
it’s stood the test against the gales.
A treasured gem in Pembrokeshire,
much loved by Gerald, son of Wales.

The masonry of limestone built,
crafted by twelfth century hands,
its turrets, towers, round and square
though aged and wind-worn, upright stand.
Tall, strong and crenelated walls
unspoiled by Medieval gloom,
no savage blows by evil foes
have turned this place to silent tomb.

A quiet solitude pervades,
it captures mood of years gone by.
The chapel and the gatehouse near
and inner ward has view of sky.
On cloudless days this spread of blue
can fall to greet a crystal sea
and from the heights your eyes can roam
to cast themselves on lush country.

The laid out borders edge the green,
bedecked in glorious summer bloom.
The colour lifts the whole display
and air is filled with sweet perfume.
I’ve stood and felt enchanted here,
looked back to times of toil and strife,
heard pluck of strings on soulful harp
and mused on being Baron’s wife.

Excuse me, that’s why I’ve re-posted it to get some help on improving it further

About a year ago, I was married to a man who lived his life on the outside as if he were a bible thumping god fearing holy man, who, within the confines of his wall cussed, drank, used drugs, and talked as if the world owed him something. He blamed all of his transgressions on others or on his parents even though he has no idea what it is like to truly be abused like I was. I couldn’t take it after about 5 years of marriage because not only could I not stand the jekhyl and hyde persona, he would also try to tell me that the failures in our marriage was because I was not a good “godly” wife, and that if I would ask anyone in our congregation, they would tell me that it was my duty to obey him and wait on him hand and foot. I would take care of the children and keep them out of his hair completelly, I would clean the house and cook for him, bring him his food to the couch where he camped whenever he wasnt at work, which every 8 months, he would get fired because of his attitude, and it would take him another 6 months to find a job. He did quit using drugs 3 years ago when we found out that the child I was pregnant with was going to have severe problems., but the anger and selfishness didnt go away with the use. When I finally started trying to ask the women in my congregation what I should do, he would get pissed because he didnt want me to tell them about how he calls me name or about how he threatens to physically hurt me, or about the times that he actually did put his hands on me. He only wanted me to tell them about the very few times that I would get so mad that I would throw whatever was in my hand in his general direction. Not that that made it right, i was still in the wrong. I finally go so depressed and anxious that I developed OCD, and eventually began talking to a friend that he didnt approve of, not that he approved of many. That finally led to our divorce and I am happy, but im sick about the church and how they all turned their back on me and hail him as a saint. His best friend is a deacon and is a known coke addict. My ex has slept with many women within the church and they all just seem to be blissfully happy with the corruption within the church walls, while Im not only rejected, but also talked about amongst them, infront of my children, as if I were a whore and a wild, reckless drug abuser. I will admit that I smoked pot for a brief period of time, and have since developed a loving, functional relationship with the friend that I was not allowed to have. I do not attend church because I dont want to take part of something that is so obliviously self centered just so that I can feel better about my eternity one day a week. The way I see it, if I live my life within my morals and boundaries, then I shouldnt worry, because I know who I am and I know that I have nothing to be ashamed of. I have asked forgiveness for my wrongs, and feel that I have nothing left to answer for. Should I just not worry and continue on with my life?

Jesus says to honor yourself and wait till marriage and gives the power to do it, i prayed Jesus im sorry for my sins-forgive me come into my heart and help me -be my friend.

Jesus said he stands at our heart door and knocks to come in deliver from sins and be our friend” Revelation 3 vs 19&20

sex out of marriage dishoners ones life and marriage for the future
drugs messes up the brain and it breaks the law
islam says in the koran Jesus is the only prophet without sin Muhamad married an 8 year old girl and said she was his favorite wife and also married and infadel – well Jesus said if you add to this book you will have plagues Revelation 22nd chapter muhamad destroyed his testimony and should have picked a tree or something to get his followers to believe in him- but Jesus forgives all sins as he says so its never too late and for my Jewish people read Isaiah 52 vs 13-53 vs 12 2 b exaulted but first marred more than any man and lays down life as a lamb
all religions are good for some for some reason alot of nice muslims i know

Jesus says to pray and let him in our heart to forgive sins and be our friend -so i did it and islam says he is a good prophet why not do what he says Revelation 3 vs 19and 20
Judaism is without a messiah why not believe Isaiah and Jesus born of a Jewish mother well why not i did -worked for me

. We have three kids 9,3,11/2. We separated 4 yrs ago because I used her mistake as an excuse for my leaving. We both have made many mistakes and have very deep issues but we are willing to work on and aware of many of our faults. She was honest about her mistake. But I used the painful feelings as another excuse run away and to go on a pity driven drug binge for 6 months. After 6 months she drove me to the V.A. (Desert storm disabled vet) because I was really close to death or homicide or both. After 9 months inpatient psych-ward ( 8weeks lockdown 7 mo. inpatient program) and 4 months transition house. She took me back. (Diagnoses bi-polar..lots o meds) I’ve made many changes and reversions “good months bad months” but stopped meds a yr after I left transition (felt they were masking/ hindering getting to the deep real issues) I put my wife through incredible emotional abuse and neglect every month of every year of our relationship. My eldest son as well.
Well I found a civilian psychotherapist 9 months ago. 4 months ago I started having some really enlightening realizations of the true pain and scars I’ve caused. 2 months ago my wife said something I perceived as a horrific hurt and I reacted as I usually do when hurt (perceived or real) with scary rage and horrible words the worst blow up ever (only 2 minutes long but 119 seconds toooo long) and I cant express in strong enough words the feelings of guilt and shame I feel. Well after that my wife wants to separate for a while so she can get herself in order. I understand and can’t blame her for a nana second. Well since then my therapist and I have gotten even deeper…scary deep but I asked him for a no bull-shit evaluation of my personality. Last week he gave it and I’ve researched and nervously agree. I have NPD (narcissistic personality disorder).My question..Long overdo I know) T he research and most people agree there is no cure but I truly want to change… for myself..Ha ha.
alittle irony there. But I also want to save the love of a beautiful, smart truly incredible woman who never deserved an ass like me. I want to change. Is it possible and how the hell can I ever make up for the mountains of crap I’ve piled on my wife.

1)Is it the society they live in?
2)The family they grow up with?
3)The religion they were taught?
4)The circumstances they were forced to live in?

In what ways do these factors influence them?
For instance,Islamic extremist only exist in certain Muslim countries particularly Iraq and Afghanistan not Brunei or Turkey or any other most Muslim countries.It contaminated Islam.If you read the Quran,it doesn’t encourage terrorism

And teenagers they plummeted into drugs and alcoholism mainly because of peer influence,they might not necessarily come from a family that teaches those stuffs.

And what about the Christian sex culture in America where most of the women ‘tricked’ into such culture through ‘religious leaders’ ‘dropped out’ of the religion because they were fooled.Christianity definitely don’t teach the ‘sharing of husbands and wives’

So sometimes,it’s not the religion or the family they were brought up in that influenced what they believe in.It’s something else.

Overlook a wrestlers’ faults/imperfections/past. We all have them. Is it really necessary to bring up the faults of particular wrestlers when they don’t have anything at all to do with us? Steroid abuse, alcoholism, cheating on wives and whatever else you can think of doesn’t always (it might at times) take away from a wrestlers’ ability to entertain and please us.. So why bother bringing it up?

Feel free to oppose my statement, just as long as you can back up your answers… I loves me a good ‘debate’ :)

WQ: In YOUR opinion, which 2 wrestlers/on-screen personalities (one from TNA, one from WWE) abuse their ‘backstage powers’ the most?

Please EXPLAIN your answers…

Ok the following list is ten people who need a kidney. This is not real. Purely hypothetical. Normally in medicine they decide off of who is the healthiest and has a better chance of living a long life. These rules need not apply if you do not want them to.

Basically I am giving you free reign to decide how to judge which of these people should get a kidney.

1)A pregnant women with AIDS who works as a prostitute.

2) A member of a militant terrorist group who is in the US and is feared to have been planning an attack on the US.

3) A 40 year old diabetic male who is blind from diabetic retinopathy. (damage to the eye)

4) A 50 year old male in prison for murdering his pregnant wife 15 years ago.

5) A 35 year old mother of 3 girls who has breast cancer. She has been treated for a year and is not cured but the chemo has destroyed her kidneys. Cancer has spread to her lungs and possibly bones.

6) A 44 year old male alcoholic who has had no success with AA or any other form of treatment for his alcohol problem.

7) 70 year old female with severe osteoporosis and fractured hip.

8) 15 year old teen who Over Dosed on drugs. He has permanent brain damage from the OD and is addicted to cocaine.

9) A 35 year old male in prison for rape.

10) 10 year old boy who is blind and deaf and has several other birth defects.

So you decide in which order they should get the kidney. If you can, give your philosophical or even personal opinion on why you ordered them as you did.
This is NOT homework help. It was just mentioned in class and I found it interesting.

Marshall Bruce Mathers III was born on October 17, 1972, in St. Joseph, Missouri. His stage name is Eminem (both of his initials put together) and has established himself as one of the most talented, but also one of the most controversial, rappers of this era. Mathers is both a Grammy and Oscar award-winner.

Mathers was raised in Warren, Michigan, and his early years in that city inspired his film, titled 8 Mile. The majority of his childhood was spent moving back and forth between St. Joseph, Missouri and Detroit, Michigan. His father deserted the family when Mathers was 15 months old, which did not help his family’s financial situation. Thus, Mathers and his family were forced to move constantly from home to home and community to community, which conceivably left him finding himself to be an outcast in new neighborhoods and schools.

Mathers had a shaky relationship with his mother, Debbie Mathers. In multiple interviews, he has stated that his mother abused drugs, in addition to accusing her of having Munchausen syndrome by proxy, a disorder in which the sufferer feigns or exaggerates symptoms of illnesses to gain attention, treatment, or sympathy. Though he did not have very affectionate feelings for his mother, he was especially close to his uncle, Ronald Dean “Ronnie” Polkingharn, who would become Mathers’s best friend. It was Polkingharn, who first introduced Mathers to hip hop. In 1991, Polkingharn committed suicide, which would leave Mathers devastated, so much so that he would abandon his musical aspirations for a year.

Upon failing ninth grade for his third time, Mathers would drop out of Lincoln High School at the age of 17, but not before meeting his future ex-wife Kimberly Ann “Kim” Scott and befriending the late rapper Proof, who would become his best friend. In 1995, Kim gave birth to Hailie Jade Scott, Mathers’ first and only child. Hailie is mentioned in several of Mathers’ hit singles, including “Hailie’s Song,” “Mockingbird,” and “When I’m Gone”.

Mathers, began performing at the young age of 13 and would make a name for himself as a young adult in the hip-hop underground, thanks in part to his unique style, lyrical content, as well as being white in a predominantly black genre. With his underground status gaining momentum thanks to countless rap battles and the release of his first independent album, Infinite, Mathers would eventually be discovered by rapper-producer Dr. Dre. With Dr. Dre in his corner as producer, Mathers would release his debut studio album, The Slim Shady LP, in 1999. At the end of the year, the album reached triple platinum status, thanks to hit singles such as, “My Name Is,” “97 Bonnie and Clyde,” and “Guilty Conscience.” Mathers’ album would also win Best Rap Album at the 2000 Grammy Awards, including Best Rap Solo Performance for “My Name Is”.

Mathers would follow up his successful debut, with The Marshall Mathers LP, which would go on to become an even bigger success debuting at the top of U.S. and U.K. album charts and achieving Diamond status (10 million copies sold) in the U.S. and selling 21 million worldwide. The album, which includes hit singles, “The Real Slim Shady,” “The Way I Am”, and “Stan,” would also win Best Rap Album, in addition to Best Rap Solo Performance for “The Real Slim Shady” honors at the 2001 Grammy Awards.

Mather’s next album, The Eminem Show, which includes hit singles, “Without Me,” “Cleanin’ Out My Closet,” and “Sing for the Moment,” also topped U.S. and U.K. music charts during its debut release in the summer of 2002, selling about 19 million copies worldwide. The album would be Mather’s second album to be nominated for the coveted Grammy Award, Album of the Year (the other album being The Marshall Mathers LP). While failing to win Album of the Year honors, Mathers would take home Best Rap Album for the third year in a row.

In November 2002, Mathers made his acting debut with the semi-autobiographical 8 Mile, which would open at the top of the box office its opening weekend and go on to gross over $215,300,000 worldwide and another $130,000,000 in US home video sales. Mathers would also release a soundtrack for the film, 8 Mile Soundtrack, which would also debut at the top of U.S. and U.K. album charts. The album’s lead single, “Lose Yourself” would become an instant hit, winning Best Rap Song at the Grammy Awards, as well as an Oscar for Best Song at the 2002 Academy Awards.

In 2004, Mathers would release Encore, an album that would debut at #1 in both the U.S. and U.K. markets and eventually sell over 11 million copies worldwide. The album has produced hit singles including “Just Lose It,” “Like Toy Soldiers,” and “Mosh.” One year later, Mathers would release a greatest hits collection, Curtain Call: The Hits, which would also debut at the top of music charts in both the U.S. and U.K. The album, which also includes new hit singles, “Shake That” and “When I’m Gone,” to date has sold over 6 million units worldwide.

Till this day, Mathers is revered for his unique ability to change his rap pace and style multiple times within a song, while keeping pace with the beat. Furthermore, his ability to write creative lyrics has earned him much praise from both his fans and music critics alike. However, not everyone appreciates his lyrical content. Some critics like GLAAD have denounced many of his lyrics as being homophobic, misogynistic, and too violent. Despite the public outcries, Mathers has won several Grammy awards, an Oscar, and is revered as one of the top rappers in the industry. He has announced that he is taking a break from his solo career, but not retiring. Mathers continues to produce and collaborate with Shady/Aftermath and G-Unit artists.

was a drunk, with dry heaves and I asked her to marry me from the urine soaked floor of a barroom toilet to keep her from leaving with my best friend Bobby Joe Maxwell. Looking back, I should have just let her go. She wants to go back to that bar tonight. I’m thinking Mcdonalds might be more pleasant.
