carbon cycle emissions frankly human humans integral last longer results
The results frankly were a shock. We can see human fingerprints all over atmospheric methane emissions for at least the last 2,000 years. Humans have been an integral part of Earth's carbon cycle for much longer than we thought.
running sight long
Television hangs on the questionable theory that whatever happens anywhere should be sensed everywhere. If everyone is going to be able to see everything, in the long run all sights may lose whatever rarity value they once possessed, and it may well turn out that people, being able to see and hear practically everything, will be specially interested in almost nothing.

I discovered a long time ago that writing of the small things of the day, the trivial matters of the heart, the inconsequential but near things of this living, was the only kind of creative work which I could accomplish with any sincerity or grace.

I know we can win this meet. The coaches say they have a really good squad this year, a little bit stronger than last year. But I feel like we still have more depth, and we're going to do well at this meet. We're going to win.
adversity awful benefits blast emotion help players press share
I know the benefits of being up in the press box. You see an awful lot more and it's not as chaotic. But the emotion of the game, it's real and you get to look eyeball to eyeball with your players and you get to share the emotion of the game.
