Can anybody help me with this Emily Dickinson poem "Sleep is supposed to be"?

I have to teach the class about this poem in a few days, and I can't figure out what it means, I would appreciate any help. Thank You!











Sleep is supposed to be,


By souls of sanity,


The shutting of the eye.





Sleep is the station grand


Down which on either hand


The hosts of witness stand!





Morn is supposed to be,


By people of degree,


The breaking of the day.





Morning has not occurred!


That shall aurora be


East of eternity;





One with the banner gay,


One in the red array, --


That is the break of day.|||Emily is not the easiest poet to figure and I've not studied her academically, just read her quite a bit.





But I'll share my gleanings and maybe they'll spark some thoughts of your own.





I think this poem, like so many of hers, is concerned with death.





She grew up churched and was fascinated by many of the ideas of Christianity, although she rejected quite a few of the teachings. Nevertheless the themes of death and resurrection seem to have fascinated her.





For the Christian death is called sleep. But in everyday use sleep is just that time of 'shutting the eye' and letting the mind go wander for a while. And I think it is this second natural kind of sleep she alludes to in the first stanza. She is, nevertheless, setting us up for a further exploration of sleep, and I don't think she is eliminating by any means the allusion to the sleep which waits for the resurrection, even in the first verse. It is just that she is so incredibly subtle about it.





In the second stanza I believe she is referring to the sleep of death and the host of witnesses is probably taken from Hebrews 11.





The third stanza goes back to ordinary life--morning is when the day breaks. But again, there is the subtle movement which prepares us for the Morning of eternity which she comes out with in the fourth stanza. That aurora shall be east of eternity.





No more daily life sleeping and waking cycle, but the final morning hen Christ returns (although what place she gives him is debatable--what is not, is that her terms of thought are taken largely from the Bible in this).





And the last stanza adds to the fourth and confirms the break of the day when there is no more night, no more death, no more mourning, for all is morning, light, aurora.





She is a poet who has to be felt, and I think this is a very difficult poem for introducing people to her. There are more accessible poems. And this one becomes more accessible when one has more of her poems which show her deep interest and fascination with death and with resurrection.





Where she gets her banners and red array from I'm not sure, and not sure how important it is to pars them. They give us a picture of flags waving and gay red costumes, combined with a light and break of a day that will never end--a day which removes death from the realm of human experience forever.





The great thing about Emily Dickinson to me is the incredible intensity and lucidity of her mind and thought. It's not necessarily always attractive--it can be morbid--but at her best she strikes the soul as speaking of that which is true--there is an integrity in her writings that can't be missed. If you get


her. But I also think there is an intuitive element that one either gets or doesn't get and no amount of analyzing can make her come to life for people.





So if I were teaching it, I would show the connections between ordinary life -sleep and waking- and the sleep of death and rising to eternity, but I wouldn't try to parse it too deeply.





You might find some other poems where she talks about her view of death and of resurrection and eternity (short ones) to


kind of prepare the students for this poem. And talk about that.





I don't personally find this poem to be one that moves me greatly, where there are some of her poems where I feel she is speaking for me--what I had not been able to put into words. and she did it perfectly.





Good luck.|||well in the first stanza, she is saying that "souls of sanity," or "non-crazy people" consider sleep to be when you close your eyes.





in the third stanza, she is saying that "people of degree" (again, meaning non-crazy people) think of morning as just when the sun rises (day breaks)...





not sure what stanza 2 means. basically she can't sleep.





stanza 4 is saying that, for her, the writer (who is NOT "a soul of sanity" or a "person of degree") morning has not happened at all. she is saying that the light (aurora) is east of forever (eternity)... and if you think about the sun rising in the east, then what she is saying is that, to her, the sun will never rise.





not sure about stanza 5. no clue.





so if she is saying she is not sane, and her sun has not risen and will never rise, do you think she is saying she's happy? sad? angry? think of what light can be a metaphor for.





the writer is saying that she can't sleep and that as far as she is concerned, the sun will never rise, her world is dark.





here are some other comments for you to look over: http://www.americanpoems.com/poets/emily鈥?/a>|||Emily is known for her worsip of death. this poem is speaking of what it means to die. Line one says that normal sleep one closes their eyes, that is what people do in other words everyone dies sooner or later. Line four is talking on how good it is to be dead. The witnesses are the pallbeares. Line seven says that normal people get up early to do their daily things but line ten says that "oh no" she can't wake up and the light she sees is not the sun. The light she sees is the one that leads to eternity (heaven or hell). The last stanza simply says that the end is just the beggining.|||Agree with the first answer. I would say the 2nd stanza refers the sleeping eye. "Hosts of witness" probably means a person's two eyes (you witness things with your eyes). So a place where sleeping eyes 'gather' is at the grand station of sleep, figuratively.





I'm stuck on the last stanza as well. I would say she's referring to each of the eyes. "One with the banner gay" is one eye, "one in the red array" is the other eye? And that refers to when the sleepless/non-sane person wakes up ("that is the break of day"). If you think of the whole thing in terms of death, though, as the other answerer says, the banner gay could be heaven and the red array could be hell. but i think that would be too easy for Dickenson.

YouTube partners get benefits like auto play, banners, and more.


Don't listen to that guy that said you have to get a premium account. That'll happen when hell freezes over. NEVER. YouTube doesn't even offer that.


If you think you have what it takes to be a partner (Do you have over 100,000 channel views? Over 250 Subscribers and Friends? Thousands of Video Views?) If not don't apply. Also a little hint to get more views is add more words to your tags when you make a video.

What are the laws on advertising?

Me and a few friends are planning on advertising for an event this Friday. It's really snowy outside and we were going to stomp a banner in the snow and pour red kool aid in the snow to make it jump out. We're just not all too sure it's legal.|||In the snow ... where? In your own yards, it's perfectly legal. In the front yard of the police station, probably not so much.

Our military is the best in the world and this war in Iraq is nothing more than proof of that fact; despite being vastly out-numbered, virtually surrounded by enemies, forced to fight a guerilla war that all but neutralizes our superior technology while Congress continualy delays funding for the sake of arguement, they have made significant progress in bringing freedom and democracy to one of the least free and democratic places in the world...|||I support the war every day, and with good cause, I don't ever want to see the USA get attacked again like it was on 911.

|||No. They should stay in Mexico and mow their own grass.|||Absolutely NOT!!!|||I have no problem with a translation as long as it is a lateral word for word translation. But once they start changing the meaning, things start going out of whack.|||No, I don't think that it's right for them to change the words. They'd get upset if you went to Mexico and changed the words to their national anthem.





in response to Desi no 1, just because they don't know English is no excuse. I don't know Spanish, but I don't expect Mexico to translate their national anthem for me!|||Their is no right for them to change the Star Spangled Banner. If they want to do something they should learn English and be proud to be in this Country.|||I don't know if English is the official language of the U.S., anyhow I'm sure the American indians weren't offended.|||Absolutely.... Hope they change your flag to.|||WRONG WRONG WRONG OH SO WRONG!!!|||Do your homework it wasn't the Mexicans who chenged the words it was an English man---He was the one who came up with the idea!! dooooooooooooo|||Definitely no!|||In a word - NO!!|||Any intelligent respectful person would think it's not right to change somebody else's National Anthem that's been sung for centuries. Only stupid idiots with no class would do such a thing.|||Well yeah i guess thats true, but there are possibly thousands and thousands of mexican americans in this country, and if they want to be american citizens, i believe that is truly their option. the choice of converting the words to mexican/spanish should not affect the americans. Also, what about all those spanish or hispanic people who do not understand english? shouldnt they be able to understand the anthem of their country????|||First of all mexicans are proud of their own national anthem, second mexicans did not write the anthem in spanish it was an american, a white american and those people who sang were puerto ricans and they are us citizen so they do have the right to sing it in spanish because they are naturalized us citizen.|||What did they change it to? Jose can you see...? Ha! HA!|||I'm think that there is nothing wrong with that, people translate songs all the time, and its no big deal. "the star spangle banner" was originally an Irish mans drinking song anyways, i just don't know why Americans are so upset about it. People have been speaking Spanish in the U.S way before this song became to be part of American culture. Its obvious that the people who are so upset about this just really need to relax and get a life because the Hispanic community is here to stay, get used to it.|||A British man translated it, NOT Mexicans or any other Latinos!!!|||if they want to sing our national anthem thats just peachy. I dont think we should play a spanish version of the song before a baseball game or anything, but as long as people are trying to demonstrate their patriotism thats fine.


Id rather them do something to show that they want to embrace america, instead of protesting the streets carrying their other countries flag.|||To change our anthem, yes.


They can have their own little ditty, but they better not start saying that they (Mexicans) have American rights.


Their translation stinks anyway.|||It was not the right thing to do. Everyone's national anthem should be sang in the official language of the country and for the US it is English. Some lady was on TV justifying it by saying they need to understand the words to let people know they respect it. But I think that is just talk used to justify something they know was out of line. How would they feel if US citizens went to Mexico and changed the words in the anthem to English?|||No foreigner, legal or illegal has the right to change the title or words of The National Anthem of any other country. When one comes to this country the only right they have is to obey the laws of the host country. If they don't, they are criminals and should be deported and not allowed to come back. They don't have the right to DEMAND anything or to threaten to change anything in another country, which is what they are doing. Try that in Mexico! There would be tanks in the street. They have very strict immigration laws which are strictly enforced. You would be jailed, shot or just disappear. Think I'm kidding?|||You are correct. It's just part of the Hispanic invasion into the U.S.|||I don't think they are the ones who changed it, although they played it on Spanish speaking stations. I believe it was changed by a British guy named Kidron, who thought it would be a giggle to see what happened.





I think HIS visa should be looked at carefully!|||I believe it was wrong but get ur facts straight a mexican didnt right it a British *** hole wrote it to make money, and he then gave it to different artist to sing|||Love the new version NOT.|||No. It was arrogant and stupid of them to do such a thing. The things that they are doing, and obviously on purpose, make me think that they are trying to start trouble. They are getting in over their heads if that's their intent.|||Not much of what the Mexicans are doing lately is right. The fact is, the Star Spangled Banner is our anthem and it isn't the Mexicans to change. These people have tried a number of , in your face, tactics to piss off the American population and it's beginning to work. I for one, will not hire another Mexican. I have already stopped patronizing Mexican owned businesses and I have cancelled my landscaping service.|||first off no ! it wasnt right . and i am lmao they jumped on that band wagaon and it blew up their faces and now their all pointing at the brit thats some funny stuff|||Actually it was a person in England that created it..those instigators!|||NO!!!!If they wanna live in the U.S.A you need to speak our language which means sing the national anthem in our language

|||i do have an idea.it depends on how old your kids are.if they are old enough to write their names you can have them write their names down and u can get their own hand writing tattooed on you somewhere like the wrists or shoulder blades.or you can wait a little longer for them to get older so they can do that if it sounds like a good idea.also another idea would be to get their hand print or foot print tattooed somewhere like the back/shoulder blades and you could put their names under it or in the middle of the outline of their print.my sister's friend got her daughter's hand prints tattooed on her back and colored in.it is a very nice tattoo to represent your kids.but for your ideas if u get their names small with a small version of their birth flower it would also look good.if you tell the tattoo artist you are going to or if u have a friend that can draw very well,you can ask them to help u design something.

Is redhead the official name 4 red haired people?are there/y aren't there any slurs on redheads?red in latin?

how come there are 'dumb blonds' and 'b!tchy brunettes' but no slur on redheads? actually, yellow-ish hair is classified as blond, brown hair as brunette, and red hair has no classification!!!!! how about....rougettes or rougends or rojottes or rojonds?

Pep.|||yep, it is just redhead - and you've never heard comments about firey redheads?!|||Yes, red headed people are redheads - you answered your own question there.





There have always been slurs and discrimination against redheads. In some historical times, redheads were often thought to be linked with evil - witches, vampires, ill omens and bringers of bad luck, the offspring of demons, sexual deviants, etc.





Redheads are often stereotyped as being aggressive, wild, temperamental, violent, etc. They are also still often thought to be a bit sexually deviant, or at least very passionate in bed.





In more modern times, redheads are often called ginger kids, gingers, and carrot tops.|||In Spanish a Red head is refereed to as a Peli Roja|||I believe it is Orangus Maximus|||Not really sure, but im a true ginger! lol

Why or why not you feel the star spangled banner is a good choice for our national anthem?

O say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,


What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?


Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight,


O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?


And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,


Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.


O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave


O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?





On the shore dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep,


Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,


What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,


As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?


Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,


In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:


'Tis the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave


O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!





And where is that band who so vauntingly swore


That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,


A home and a country should leave us no more?


Their blood has wash'd out their foul footsteps' pollution.


No refuge could save the hireling and slave


From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave:


And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave


O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.





O thus be it ever when free-men shall stand


Between their lov'd home and the war's desolation;


Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land


Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!


Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,


And this be our motto: “In God is our trust!”


And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave


O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!|||Well, I like the tune. It meanders up and down the scale in a free, lurching style that just sounds like a couple of stiff drinks.

It stands unconquered, the last great summit of the Alps. Only one man has ever dared to approach the top, and that man died in his pursuit. He was Josef Matt, Rudi Matt's father.


At sixteen, Rudi is determined to pay tribute to the man he never knew, and complete the quest that claimed his father's life. And so, taking his father's red shirt as a flag, he heads off to face the earth's most challenging peak. But before Rudi can reach the top, he must pass through the forbidden Fortress, the gaping chasm in the high reaches of teh Citadel where his father met his end. Rudi has followed Josef's footsteps as far as they will take him. Now he must search deep within himself to find the strength for the final ascent to the summit鈥攖o plant his banner in the sky|||I think these questions go much deeper than just what you would find in a book. Like Rudi, you have to "search deep within" yourself to find the answers.





However, here is a site that has some *very interesting* information, and may be helpful to you. (remove spaces from these links) In addition, you may wish to watch the Disney movie "The Third Man on the Mountain", which was about this book.





http:// www.nides.bc.ca/ Assignments/Novels/ Banner/StudGuid.htm





The novel, Banner in the Sky (HarperCollins Children's Books, 1988) by James Ramsey Ullman (1907-71) is an excellent example of a bibliotherapeutic experience. It has been a classic of adolescence since it was first published in 1954. The locale, an Alpine village, stirs the imagination while the objective of the mountain climbers, the Citadel, captures the soul of the reader. This imaginative focus creates an inspirational vision which proclaims that risk-taking is the essential ingredient in the search for excellence. At the end of the novel, Rudi Matt, the main protagonist, chooses to rescue a fellow mountain climber instead of merely being the conqueror of this elusive mountain, the Citadel. This outcome demonstrates the novel's character development; the hero is seeking not only to conquer the mountain itself, but command over his inner psyche as well. Courage is linked to compassion. (This book was also made into a movie called Third Man on the Mountain by Walt Disney Productions, 1959.) "I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go to the mountain. And I've looked over, and I've seen the promised land...." Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. (a)

What kind of banner is this?

I have recently seen a banner hanging in the window of a house, visible to passers-by. It is about a foot wide horizontally and two feet long vertically. There is a wide red border (about 2 inches wide) around the edge of the banner. Inside the border it is white, except for a blue five-pointed star at the exact center of the banner. There is gold fringe hanging from the bottom of the banner. Does the banner represent anything special, or is it just decorative?|||No, it is NOT just decorative. Having a blue star banner in your window shows that you have a family member serving in the armed forces. Can be used in peace time, but mainly used during war-time. So people know that your loved one(s) are overseas.


Gold star banners means that their loved one died during the war.

Where can I get those giant banners for events made?

I wanted to know where I could get a event banner made. If there is a place or website that does this list it. Like you see them mostly at award shows. People take pictures in front of them. Like at the BET Awards on the red carpet they have the banners people pose in front of. They have the logos and names of people who sponsered the event. I'm throwing my first party in Saginaw, Michigan. It's a really big party and I want it to look the best. Please help me out. If you do a search on an award show and you see the banners the stars take picture behind thats what I'm talking about.|||Yahoo may not appreciate this answer, but if you use Google Earth to scope out your area then put "banners" in the local search area. Yellow pages also work. 'Banners' and 'yourtownname' in the Yahoo search enginge will probably find you a store like Alltype.

Can I get any information on this baseball card?

I have a 1984 Donruss Diamond Kings card,


It's Mike Schmidt,


Autograph is on it,


in blue ink,


Number 23,


Has a red and blue banner above his head.





I am just wondering how much is this card worth?


I bought 10,000 baseball cards from a yard sale and this was one of them,


any idea and any information about this card?|||The card itself is not worth that much. In the 80's and 90's, baseball cards were way over produced, which means it is not worth a lot.





Now the autograph on it may be worth something, but without any proof or certificate of authenticity, it is not worth anything. If you send it away to be authenticated and it is a real autograph, it would probably be worth in the $60-$100 range. The fact that Mike Schmidt is still alive and signing at baseball card shows (mab-celebrity.com) and is charging $69-$99, that will tell you it is not worth going through the expense of getting it authenticated.|||Scrutinize the card back for a copyright date. If it reads 1983 or 1984, it's original vintage from the 1984 set. If it is more modern -- late 1990s or early 2000s -- it's a reprint, especially made to be autographed by Schmidt and inserted into pack product. This was not so uncommon around ten years ago.|||It's not certified so it's worthless. Is the card number 23 or did the peson write it becuase Schmidt was number 20.





Keep in mind the first guy Chris L guesses on every single one of these questions - he has yet to guess correctly. I have no idea why this nimrod just comes in here and guesses and how that helps anyone.|||Maybe $30. maybe

Why are there rockets and bombs in the 'star spangled banner'. were they used in the revolution?

From what i remember in history class and historical movies; weapons in the american revolution were limited to rifle bayonets, swords and cannons. which makes me curious why there were rockets (red glare) and bombs (bursting in air) used in the star spangled banner.|||~First of all, you've got the wrong war. The poem wasn't written during the War for Colonial Independence (it was NOT a revolution). It was written during the war of 1812.





Second, you may want to look up the early 19th century definition of "rockets" and "bombs". They existed long before 1812, but bear little resemblance to contemporary toys of the same names.





On the other hand, maybe Franny Key was making up new words out of boredom just for the rhythm and rhyme of his poem. |||Francis Scott Key wrote the lyrics while imprisoned aboard a British warship, and watched the bombardment first-hand amid the ship-to-shore battle. Rockets are millenia old, invented by the Chinese before muskets existed. They were not new by the Revolution or War of 1812 standards, the latter being the war in which Key was observing the battle of which he wrote.|||Keep in mind the Star-Spangled Banner was written during the War of 1812 as a poem originally entitled Defence of Fort McHenry. Francis Scott Key watched the British bombardment of Fort McHenry during the War of 1812 and upon seeing the US flag flying over the fort in the morning was inspired to write the poem.





The bombs referred to exploding shells. That is hollow cannonballs filled with powder and armed with a fuse. They were explosive shells, which were first used in Europe during the 16th century. That's the 1500s, meaning they would have been in exsistence during the Revolution and used during the war.





The rockets in the poem and later the song refer to the Congreve rocket, an artillery piece created by William Congreve of Britian in 1804.|||Wrong war. The "bombs bursting in air" were howitzer shells, and both they and the rockets were used both in the Napoleonic wars and in the War of 1812.


Congreve rockets, by the way, were like a large metal bottle-rocket, and probably more a danger to the battery than to the enemy. And Shrapnel's howitzer shell was an obscure curiosity for twenty years but by the time of the war of 1812 was in pretty common use in the British army.|||IT was Francis Scott Key, during the Battle at Baltimore in the War of 1812. The words actually came from a dialogue between Key and John Skinner and Doctor Wiliiam Beanes, while aboard the Minden. After seeing the huge flag (of Mary Pickersgill, 30 feet wide and 42 feet wide) waving at fort McHenry after a night of bombardment by the British. They were relieved that the flag had not fallen and the Americans still held Baltimore.


"The contrails of the Congreve rockets from the Erebus glared red across the sky. The mortars with their fuses timed to explode abovet the fort and rain shrapnel and destruction upon it, appeared first as giant fireworks-bombs bursting in the night sky"(Borneman, 2004,p.245).


Beans kept asking Key and Skinner, as they looked to shore, "Can you see the Flag?, Is it still there?"


"Finally, as the early light of dawn tinged the eastern sky, Key was able to answer in the affirmative. What so proudly they had hailed at the twilight's las gleaming was indeed still there. Beanes and Skinner were jubilant. key took out an envelope and scribbled a few lines..."(Borneman, 2004, p.246).||| Wrong war! The SSB was written during the war of 1812. They used large rockets, like bottle rockets, to scare the devil out of people. Not very effective. "Bombs" were shells fired from cannon- hollow iron spheres filled with black powder, with a fuse lit by the firing of the cannon. they were fired only by howitsers or mortors. Both fire plunging fire, not directly at a target, but dropping into it.

First of all pull all your money from the banks. All of it! Do not convert to another money because the world economy is falling, not just here.

Was the Dutch flag based on the French flag?

The flag of the Netherlands consists of three horizontal banners: red, white and blue. The flag of France consists of three vertical banners: blue, white and red. So is that coincedence or did the Dutch base their flag on the French flag?|||Yes and no, the flag of Netherlands is one of the oldest flags in constant use, originating with William I, Prince of Orange, in the latter half of the 16th century. However it is said that it was Henri IV of France who had recommended the colours to the Dutch ambassadors who listened to him and used the three colours for their own flag.





White, red and blue was already in use in France at that time but not in vertical banners, blue was in remembrance of St Martin cloak and in use since Charlemagne , red was in remembrance of St Denis banner and the colour of the Capetian kings , and white was a sign of divine approval and the colour of the Bourbon kings. The Dutch liked the symbolism and used the same colours.





So yes the French influenced the flag of Netherlands, but it was not the French Republic flag with the three vertical banners but a much earlier use of the three colours.|||The Dutch flag is much older than the French flag. It is the oldest tricolour used nowadays. It was introduced in the 16th century. The French flag was introduced during the French Revolution and its colours are usually associated with liberty, equality, and fraternity, the ideals of the Revolution.

Question about the Star Spangled Banner?

Is the line "The rockets Red Glare and bombs bursting in air" actually from the war of 1812 ?





I thought Rockets were not even invented (as weapons) until the 20th century.|||Rockets, as weapons, were invented by the Chinese back in ... when Marco Polo went to China in the late 1200s, he saw rockets being demonstrated. The British, especially, in the early 1800s, loved those rockets and used them regularly, including the Battle of New Orleans later in the war.|||They refer to “Congreve Rockets”.


War of 1812


During their confrontation with the US during the War of 1812, the British used rockets at the Battle of Bladensburg, which led to the burning and surrender of Washington, D.C..


It was the use of Congreve rockets by the British in the bombardment of Fort McHenry in the U.S. in 1814 that inspired the fifth line of the first verse of the United States National Anthem, The Star-Spangled Banner: "And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air".

O say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,


What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?


Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight,


O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?


And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,


Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.


O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave


O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?





On the shore dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep,


Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,


What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,


As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?


Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,


In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:


'Tis the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave


O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!





And where is that band who so vauntingly swore


That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,


A home and a country should leave us no more?


Their blood has wash'd out their foul footsteps' pollution.


No refuge could save the hireling and slave


From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave:


And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave


O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.





O thus be it ever when free-men shall stand


Between their lov'd home and the war's desolation;


Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land


Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!


Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,


And this be our motto: “In God is our trust!”


And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave


O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!|||Tradition. The words tell a story..and the story continues today.|||The song is really beautiful. I forget which battle it was written after, but is it lovely and has a lot of history behind it.|||rodina amerikanskaya zamblya rodina

In the poem "crossing the red sea" by peter skrzynecki, what could the essay be about.?

I need to write an essay on this poem, and i need to break it down into 3 main points for the body.





Any ideas?





Many slept on deck


Becasue of the day's heat


Or to watch a sunset


They would never see again


Stretched out on blanket(s?) and pillows


Against cabins and rails:


Shirtless,in shorts, barefooted,


Themselves a landscape


Of milk-white flesh


On a scoured and polished deck.





Voices left their caves


And silence fell from its shackles


Memories strayed


From behind sunken eyes


To look for shorelines


Peaks of mou(n?)tains and green rivers


That shared their secrets


With storms and exiles





--------------------------------------鈥?br>




1949, and the war


Now four years dead-


N(ei)ther master nor slaves


As we crose(d) a sea


And looked at red banners


That Time was hoisting (note: capital time) (not my note HC)


In mock salute





--------------------------------------鈥?br>




Patches and shreds


Of dialogue


Hung from fingertips (line break?)And unshaven faces


Offering themselves


As a respite FRom (sic) the interruption


Of passing waves.





"I remember a filed (field?)


Of red poppies, once behind the forest


When the full moon rose."





"Blood Leaves similar dark stains


When it Runs (sic) for a long time


On stones or Rusted (sic) iron"





(And the sea's breath


Touched the eyes


Of another Lazarus (line break?) Who was saying a prayer


In thanksgiving


For miracles)





--------------------------------------鈥?br>




All night


The kindness


of the sea continued -


Breaking into


Walled-up griefs


That men had sworn


Would never be disclosed.


Accepting outflung denunciations


With a calmness


That brought a reminder


of people listening to requiems,


Pine tress whispering


Against a stone wall in the breeze;


Or a trembling voice


that sang at the rails


When the ship first sailed


From the sorrow


Of northern wars.





--------------------------------------鈥?br>




Daybreak took away


The magic of dreams,


Fragments of apparitions


That became


More tangible than words


Echoes and reflections


Of the trust


That men had bartered


For silence.





Had we talked


Of death


Perhaps something


More then (than?) time


Would have been lost.





But the gestures


Of darkness and starlight


Kept our minds


Away from the finalities


Of surrender -


As they beckoned towards


A blood-rimmed horizon


Beyond whose waters


The Equator


Was still to be crossed.














^^^^^^^^ Thats the poem.





Cheers|||This is how I'm getting it. We get to think that our circumstances imprison us when by them we see that which we had been longing for in the journey. They appear as poppies or red flags yet again, we ignore them and allow our minds away and refuse to surrender even when 4 years have swallowed up the need for us to.


Cheers.

Will someone help design a banner for my site?

If you follow the first URL, to the main page, you can see it is pretty blank. The forum, which is the second URL, isn't nearly as bad, and can be left alone for now.





I would love to have a nice background, and a banner too. I am not artsy at all, so I can't really do this very well. I also know very little about HTML/CSS, only enough to get this up there and modified. But that's not hard in DreamWeaver.

How do I get rid of the red X's?

Help! When I'm using myspace, many of my friends pictures just show up as red X's and so do flash players etc. I do have flash player installed, and ive ticked the setting "show images" under interet options. But they're still there and it's so irritating. I want to play some music on my profile but it won't work because the box where it is just shows up as a big fat X. also, my layout doesnt show properly, the contact box, extended network banner as well as the background are basically blank. this problem only started occuring yesterday, everything worked 麓before. i came back from france on sunday and hooked up my laptop to the internet here, and that's when the problem showed up.

How to add a banner on my web site?

Actually, it is a Website for a local Swim Club, and I would like to have the ability on the front page to put a "banner" saying Pool open or closed if weather issue.

I was contemplating adding a Chat with a Update Live Message but is there an easier way to do it more efficiently?|||Very easy way, a small database or xml file with a programming language.





with a backend and frontend:





the frontend would be the section you want it dynamic the backend where the admin can add the status of the pool and any other information.





Please can you tell me what server your site on? (linux or windows?)





if its linux its need to be done with php and if its windows asp or asp.net.





now if you want something quick and dirty then you can make a page included to the main page and upload this page with an ftp also it can be done like that.

Does anyone know how to get that stupid red border off my verizon phone.?

I have a verizon wireless cell phone and it has this red border on it and says verizon wireless. No it's not the banner and it's nothing like that, trust me I've checked everything out.|||That's standard on every Verizon phone, that part of the layout cannot be changed.|||You say it's not the banner, but try this.. go to MENU, DISPLAY, BANNER, ERI BANNER, OFF. That's how I get rid of mine! I hope I helped. If you already tried that, then I really don't know what to tell you.

What does everyone think of the tattoo I want to get as a memorial to my girlfriend who died in a car accident

I posted this question already and got feedback. I took people's advice and went with her initials on top and the date of the accident on the banner.


This is what I have so far:


http://s41.photobucket.com/albums/e282/M鈥?/a>





The colour scheme goes as follows. . .


The heart will be red.


The banner will be dark blue.


The wings will be dark blue and black and maybe a little white, depending on how the artist shades it when he sketches it.


The barbed wire and lettering for her initials and date will be dark blue.


The rose will be a deep scarlet which was her favourite colour of rose.


The stem will be dark green, as will be the thorns.





I am bad at shading so this is a rough idea of what I want, I will have the artist shade it to make everything look more real. I would like people's input, girls especially. What would you think if a guy you were serious with had this tattoo, knowing the situation.|||Well being a girl and a tattoo artist, the tattoo looks great you did a good job. Who ever you bring it to should easily make it look fantastic. I think if it's the right person for you then they'd understand. It's in memory of someone, whether that be your girlfriend, mom, dad, sister, or brother...they should be able to understand that.|||I think that will be beautiful i'm sorry for your loss. :(|||You know what, it is a nice design, cannot make heads or tails of the initials, is it JEV or JEN can't tell.





But my opinion is why would you want to idolize her death with the date of it. I would just put her name in the banner and forget the date. If you need a date put in the date you met her or fell in love with her.





To me it would be a better memory|||im a fan of it except for the wire around the heart... to me it symbolizes a prison, as if she were trapped instead of set free... - you can shade with darker colors if the heart isnt "manly" enough but without that wire its still a guys tat|||That is soo nice and cute. I think it would soo very very nice and im soo sorry for your loss :'(|||I am really sorry for your loss, but I think your future girlfriends will have a problem with your having any such tattoo. It would be far, far more meaningful to remember her always in your heart. To me, the tattoo trivializes what happened and makes it seem like it is all about you and not about her.|||it's really cute! and i have nothing against it... except... if you're planning to get back into the dating world and your future girlfriends ask what the tatoo means... they might have a hard time accepting that you still care a lot for a past "significant other"... but other wise it's all good to me!! %26lt;3 p.s. i TOTALLY think that you should put white in the wings, all 3 colors together are good|||I don't like the location of the initials, i would put them inside the heart or leave them off altogether. Is this a girl you were really serious with? I don't know how i would feel if a guy i was seeing had that. If you just leave the date on there, you don't have to tell anyone what it is. Also, you don't have to have a tatoo to remember her, what about a donation in her memory to her favorite cause, or to your school? Or a tree for a park with a name plate. or a park bench at your favorite park. Just a thought. Also, sorry about your loss.|||I think it is great that you want to remember her in this way. and if i were to date a man who had this sort of tattoo it would only show me how compassionate he was. I'm sorry for your lose and i hope the tattoo artist does a great job on this piece|||I agree with others I can't be sure what the initials are and why the barbed wire? What are the wings? If they are suppose to be angel wings, remember angels were never humans so she can't be your guardian angel.|||I think it's beautiful and I would think he's sentimental and has a big heart.





People seem to be having problems with the initials. I think it says FEV.|||Take it in and have your artist


draw it in detail. You will be


better able to see if anything


needs changed. Your artist


can help you with that and also


the color and placement. You


don't want it to end up, getting


too busy, or having everything


crowded together.|||The tattoo is beautifull, and seems very speacial to you which is all that matter.





I think its ridiculas that some of the girls are saying once you start to date agian your girlfriend may not like it. Dont listen to them the tattoo only shows what you have gone threw and how she was important in your life, if your future girlfriend is jealous ofsome one who has passed, then she has some issues.





good luck with the tat, im sure it will look great.|||I'm sorry for your loss, but I don't like the tattoo. I think it is extremely generic. If you really want to remember her through ink (which I'm not sure is a great idea to begin with) make it something more personal. Like an inside joke the two of you had, or her favorite pass time. Something that really catches the essence of who she was, and not just a random heart with wings.|||I think it is a nice tattoo. i think the barbed wire should be a different color than the banner,perhaps black, i think it will blend together too much otherwise. if i was dating you and saw your tat, i would be sad for you because know how it feels to lose someone. i wouldnt be jealous or anything, i would feel good knowing i was with someone who could love someone so deeply.|||I think it will be beautiful. Your girlfriend was lucky to have someone care about her the way you obviously do. As far as what other women you may date/marry may think, I hope they dont get upset (but some chicks are just Bees with an Itch.) However, I see it like this, you loved her and fate took her from you far too soon in life, love does not die when we die, I would think, this man knows how to love. She will always have a place in your heart, you shouldnt have to worry about what others think, even if you didn' t have a tatt-you still have memories, whats the difference? You do whatever you need to do to help heal your pain, when the right girl comes around she will be there to take some of that pain away.

Does anyone know about the Star Spangled Banner?

"The rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air..." Everyone knows this famous line, but what did this really look like? I'm doing a painting which depicts this famous night, and I want it to be authentic. Can anyone describe what this looked like? Could you link a picture possibly? I've searched around but I cant find anything that seems to fit the description properly.|||It very likely looked exactly like what Francis Scott Key was seeing when he wrote the SSB. He was being detained on an English vessel in the Baltimore Harbor. A battle between English ships and American on-land military raged all the night that Key was detained on the ship. He could hardly wait until the dawn to see if the US flag still flew over Ft. McHenry. If it did, that would mean the US forces won the battle.|||The bombs bursting in air part is extremely similar to our modern day fireworks.


That is actually why we started using fireworks to celebrate.


The black powder mixed with the bombs made of iron and early metal caused the colorful explosions.


So any picture of fireworks would help you out a lot!


Rockets red glare is the fire that lit the fuses.

Have you noticed that the Weather Channel website seems to be a lot less accurate lately?

Maybe they are pretty accurate with the temperature predictions, but everything else is totally bogus lately.


If it says 70% chance of rain, it doesn't rain. If it they have those big red banners screaming about "severer thunderstorms", there are never any storms. It seems like they are grossly exaggerating the weather to scare people or cover their azz.





A few years ago, they were a lot more accurate.





Are they giving the common people crappy weather information and selling the real, accurate info to airports, governments, etc for a huge profit?|||Years ago ( the early 1980's) when the Weather Channel ( the cable channel) it was great even though critics said who would watch 24 hour weather. Soon thereafter 1990 and the advent of the internet came weather.com which was an aset to our busy lives if we wanted to know anything about the weather as you could get on demand information on any city/state in the United States. However in 2008 when it was sold to NBC Univeral ( now Comcast) the whole Weather Channel franchise has gone downhill and continues to, the cable channel shows less live weather, the website is full or errors and Environmental lies. It is now the joke that critics said back in the 1980's "Who is going to watch ( acesss on the internet) the Weather Channel? Right now No one!|||I'm no fan of TWC 鈥?far from it 鈥?and I've long abandoned it for the far superior NWS. However, I think you're reading too much into it. The weather is impossible to predict with certainty, and if any forecasting agency got your particular forecast wrong, chances are it's simply a natural synoptic deviation rather than a masterminded conspiracy on the agency's part. I do believe TWC monopolizes the weather in that they overemphasize (not necessarily exaggerate) storm events for the sole purpose of achieving higher ratings, but the point-by-point (city) forecasts are derived automatically from computer models, with little or no human input.|||i kind of agree I use the app and the site. I was looking at the app before school and it said it would be like 50 degrees and the site said it was 70

Belorussian Flag red on white flag origin doesn't make sense?

"when the united armies of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, defeated the Germans of the Teutonic Order at the Battle of Grunwald. According to this tradition, a wounded Belarusian knight tore off a blood soaked bandage and raised it as a banner of victory"

Why is the Belorussian army not mentioned with Poland and Lithuania ?|||Lithuania, Belarus and Ukraine were one country there called Grand Duchy of Lithuania.

Is this proof that China is going to beat the United States in pretty much everything?

Look:


http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/16/educat鈥?/a>





Chinese kids do 5 hours of homework a night. Our kids are being limited to 10 minutes of homework (you read that right) a night.








So... when should we hoist up the Red Banner of China?|||The amount of time for homework goes up by grade. I never had homework in the early elementary grades when I was in school. My grandchildren do even in kindergarten. I can see practicing reading, spelling, and handwriting but a heavy load of homework too early can make children hate school.





The trick is to make learning interesting. I used to tell my children to look things up and we made it fun. They enjoyed it. Learning to research is what most people learn in college and continue all their lives. That is really what makes them educated. It is a lifelong experience.





China will over take the US soon. Our whole basis for our economy has been transferred there and to other countries. What is the point of educating people so stringently when there will be little left here but becoming a tourist attraction?|||So you're taking the singular example of one elementary school in New Jersey and referring to it as "our kids", as if this applies to every school in the United States?





And I go to a University with a high amount of foreign exchange students from China (since it is primarily a math and engineering school), and it's pretty obvious that the students who spend most of their time with their faces buried in books have no ability to communicate with others. There's something to be said for social smarts instead of book smarts.|||China is a nation that can't practice proper mine safety.





China can't consistently protect its milk supply.





The world largest shopping mall is in China and there is one tenant in that mall. The rest of it sits vacant and unused.





The Ordos region has a spectacular brand new city that remains largely vacant because people don't want to live there and can't afford to live there.





Does this sound like a nation that can beat any other nation?|||China has numerous structural weaknesses. It is Japan, but on steroids and without a solid footing. China will certainly continue to grow, but how can they have a middle class of almost 1 billion people? Not likely. And literally over 1/4th of loans given by the Chinese banks default... not a good sign of internal development. China is only noticeable because of its size and currency reserves. They are making tremendous efforts to move forward, but in 5 years, consider what I said. China may very well be facing a big crisis with a property bubble, similar to what we faced, but not as bad.





I would suggest looking at nations like Brazil, Turkey, Poland, etc... these are solid countries with good economic development. They are not growing as fast per se, but it is likely they will keep growing solidly, for years to come. 20 years from now, Turkey will be a power house, I believe.





But, if you want to get into the fine details, the US is in HUGE trouble because it doesn't pay for its entitlements:

I don't know how anyone thinks a tax cut is possible at a time when the fiscal deficit will soon become worse than Greece's and you have many, many more bills for the future. I wish the best for them.|||China is not a foolish Nation, they learn from history. Japan industrialised just as quickly as China is doing now. Japan believed it could replace Western Imperialism with it's own version of Eastern Imperialism. The result? for Japan it was catastrophe, it was not just that Japans industrial base was no match for Americas, but Japan lacked the historical know how and experience that America had. China is enjoying wealth, luxury and success now, what makes you think they want to pick a fight with America?|||No.|||Where's the happy medium here? 10 minutes is too little, I agree. 5 hours is too much. An hour or two a night seems like a good place to rest.





You also left out the word "average" in your statement and for someone who seems to be terrified and disapproving of China you seem to be pushing their methods a bit hard.|||China is increasing capitalism, and obama is decreasing capitalism.
