Sharp-shinned Hawk Overview, All About Birds, Cornell Lab of Ornithology

A tiny hawk that appears in a blur of motion—and often disappears in a flurry of feathers. That’s the Sharp-shinned Hawk, the smallest hawk in Canada and the United States and a daring, acrobatic flier. These raptors have distinctive proportions: long legs, short wings, and very long tails, which they use for navigating their deep-woods homes at top speed in pursuit of songbirds and mice. They’re easiest to spot in fall on their southward migration, or occasionally at winter feeders.

Cooper’s Hawk Identification, All About Birds, Cornell Lab of Ornithology

Among the bird world’s most skillful fliers, Cooper’s Hawks are common woodland hawks that tear through cluttered tree canopies in high speed pursuit of other birds. You’re most likely to see one prowling above a forest edge or field using just a few stiff wingbeats followed by a glide. With their smaller lookalike, the Sharp-shinned Hawk, Cooper’s Hawks make for famously tricky identifications. Both species are sometimes unwanted guests at bird feeders, looking for an easy meal (but not one of sunflower seeds).

Real Men Eat Pussy—and Kiss Ass « Sex in General « Advice

I don’t believe that all things must be equal in a sexual relationship—few things in life in general, much less in any kind of human relationship, are truly equal. We all have ways in which we intentionally or unintentionally get over on someone else or receive more than another person in the course of human dynamics.

15 Times Batman Has Foolishly Wasted Millions

At one point, he takes a couple of models out for a meal, both the women decide to start swimming in the pool.

When a manager attempts to ask them to leave, Bruce simply buys the hotel and says there are ‘some new rules’. It’s a funny scene, but a waste of his bank account. Really, he’s only doing it to annoy the manager, rather than for any gain. Although he instantly regrets it when Rachel Dawes walks in and sees him with the two models. Silly Bruce.

1 Timothy 6 NIV – All who are under the yoke of slavery – Bible Gateway

6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 8 But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. 9 Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.

Marriage Is No Immunity From Problems with Planning Pregnancies | Guttmacher Institute

Policies designed to promote and strengthen marriage are gaining currency at all levels of government, and a key goal of many of these initiatives is to reduce out-of-wedlock childbearing. By focusing exclusively on nonmarital births, however, these efforts ignore that married people also face considerable difficulties planning their families.

Oprah Interviews Maya Angelou

Oprah: This was your mother’s reaction to your pregnancy?

Maya: Exactly. She said, “Do you love the boy?” I said no. She said, “Does he love you?” I said no. She said, “Then there’s no reason to ruin three lives! We’re going to have a baby.” That’s Vivian Baxter. From then on, she was just incredible as a parent.

Oprah Interviews Maya Angelou

Oprah: What are the other principles that define your life?

Maya: I love a statement by the apostle Paul, in the Book of Philippians in the Bible. I think the Corinthians had been writing to Paul, telling him that old men were chasing young women, nobody was tithing—and all that must have run Paul crazy. He wrote back and said, “If there be anything of good report, speak of these things.” That’s one of my principles.

Oprah Interviews Maya Angelou

Oprah: Earlier you were telling me that your life is defined by principles. And one principle you have taught me is that we can’t allow ourselves to be “pecked to death by ducks.”

Maya: That’s true. Some people don’t have the nerve to just reach up and grab your throat, so they just take….

Oprah: Little pieces of you—with their rude comments.

Oprah Interviews Maya Angelou

Maya: Yes. Some think, “If I marry this guy who’s two inches taller than I am and who has a nice bank account, I won’t die. If I buy six cars, I won’t die. If I hate Jews, I won’t die. If I hate homosexuals, I won’t die.” They think they will increase their life by shunting misery onto somebody else, but it’s just the opposite.
