I am involved in the geneology sites. Please no referrals to the top ten (like Genweb, Roots and Ancestry)

I need personal knowledge of these people. I have come to an obstacle that these sites are unable to help me overcome. I am looking for the line of Sweeneys who immigrated from Ireland to Canada, first documented in the mid to late 1800s, then some came to the US, in the New England area, around 1900 (give or take).
Other family names, related to the Sweeneys by blood, are Welch, Rivard and Haley. I have a line at 1850, and it picks up again in 1910. I need to fill in the 60 year gap.
Thank you.

I write poems, mostly about love, and short stories (erotica) for fun and I am really good. My problem is I don't know what to write about next. I have nothing to do at work today so it is a perfect day to compose a poem or story. Can you please give me some ideas? Thanks

i have a project due tommorow and i need help finding the over all theme of Silvia Plaths poem "Never Try To Trick Me With A Kiss"
Sylvia Plath
Never Try to Trick Me with a Kiss

Never try to trick me with a kiss
Pretending that the birds are here to stay;
The dying man will scoff and scorn at this.

A stone can masquerade where no heart is
And virgins rise where lustful Venus lay:
Never try to trick me with a kiss.

Our noble doctor claims the pain is his,
While stricken patients let him have his say;
The dying man will scoff and scorn at this.

Each virile bachelor dreads paralysis,
The old maid in the gable cries all day:
Never try to trick me with a kiss.

The suave eternal serpents promise bliss
To mortal children longing to be gay;
The dying man will scoff and scorn at this.

Sooner or later something goes amiss;
The singing birds pack up and fly away;
So never try to trick me with a kiss:
The dying man will

...or is the concept of "free will" just a decption humanity believes to feel like they are in control??

2007-03-01 06:23:40 · 3 answers · asked by minimule67 2 in Philosophy

Have you ever met a person who has had NO troubles, and is completely protected from the world? Do they even seem real to you? Do they seem to have any substance of personality?

This point aside, everything in the world is relative, without the bad, there would be no good whatsoever. It would simply be. In order for anybody to enjoy life, the have to appreciate the less desirable aspects of life.

And the issue is less than why does he let the bad things happen, but why do others do the bad things.

YOU have done some of these bad things and the only way for God to have prevented this would have been to control you. The control would be counter productive however, because if God was to control everybody, they would cease to be themselves, and in effect die. They would not be able to appreciate the absence of the bad things.

Please, answer me this, If God loves us, then why would he prevent the terrible things from happening?
