My mom and I are both huge fans of Leave it to Beaver and Eragon (yeah, strange combo.) I was wondering if anyone knew the release dates for the 3rd book of the Eragon trilogy or the 3rd season of Leave it to Beaver on DVD?

California was Spanish held territory in 1790, and, I would suspect, out of the British Navy's reach. California, or other American destination would also have better propsects for long range survival and quality of life than Pitcairn island.

It seems an eternity
Since the sun arise
With waves crashing infinity
Besides the rocky shore
A man sits alone
on the edge
Pondering the ponder
that has plague him in wonder
He held in his hands
a tarnish flower
From a past not long ago
Used to be something complete
But now it lies
a broken heap
How can a flower be of such beauty
so full of light and purity
become such a darkness
encompassing the man’s heart
turning him away from his fairness
into one of sadness
Nothing last forever
In this broken world
No one is spare
of this agonizing truth
This is what the man discover
As he ponder
at the edge of despair.

My practice poem.

Christians, did all Native American or Indigenous people go to hell before Jesus arrived?
They didn't know who Jesus was/is, how does that work? Or how about modern day tribes people in South America for example, they have never seen a Christian or even heard of old J. C., do they automatically go to hell too because they are not with the 'lords gang'? Just curious how that is rationalized.

What's the difference between a novel and a book?
If nobody buys a ticket to a movie do they still show it?
If the FBI breaks your door down do they have to pay for it?
If a king is gay and marries another guy what is that guy to the royal family?
When Atheists go to Court, they can't swear on the bible, can they?

Zero sum nihilism says that the world exists in a "zero sum state." If the entire universe were converted into energy, the sum would be zero. The theory is compatible with the existence of thinking minds (Cartesian "cogito") and with modern physics, in which mass is the main repository of positive energy and negative gravitational potential energy is the main negative energy in the universe.

The theory says that the present universe evolved by unknown mechanisms from the simplest zero sum state. This obviates the existence of god and the problems entailed by it, namely the origins of evil and free will and the contradictions between our expectations and our experience. Thus it is a simpler explanation of the world, in accord with Occam.

If zero sum nihilism is true, (1) violations of complete conservation laws are impossible, (2) nearly empty space is the rule, matter the exception, (3) evolution is from the simpler to the more complex, all of which we believe we observe.

Conceived in Texas, nurtured in Washington, the Iraqi tragedy its about to have children of its own. Is it too late to stop it?

Governments constantly choose between telling lies and fighting wars, with the end result always being the same. One will always lead to the other.

I've been researching a lot on the correct interpretation of this poem, but the sources regarding her poems are very scanty...
Thank you

Querida* (1940)

The door is closed, the curtains drawn within
One room, a brilliant question mark of light...
Outside her gate an empty limousine
Waits in the brimming emptiness of night.

I was reading a Civil War book and came across a very interesting quote from Lincoln.
" If I could save the Union without freeing any slave, i would do it; If I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; And if i could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone, I would also do that ."
Is this a historical quote overlooked by Historians or was I always made to believe that Lincoln 's biggest mission in the war was to make sure all slavery was abolished? Any thoughts?
