I. Ancestral Houses
Surely among a rich man's flowering lawns,
Amid the rustle of his planted hills,
Life overflows without ambitious pains;
And rains down life until the basin spills,
And mounts more dizzy high the more it rains
As though to choose whatever shape it wills
And never stoop to a mechanical
Or servile shape, at others' beck and call.
Mere dreams, mere dreams! Yet Homer had not Sung
Had he not found it certain beyond dreams
That out of life's own self-delight had sprung
The abounding glittering jet; though now it seems
As if some marvellous empty sea-shell flung
Out of the obscure dark of the rich streams,
And not a fountain, were the symbol which
Shadows the inherited glory of the rich.
Some violent bitter man, some powerful man
Called architect and artist in, that they,
Bitter and violent men, might rear in stone
The sweetness that all longed for night and day,
The gentleness none there had ever known;
But when the master's buried mice can play.
And maybe the great-grandson of that house,
For all its bronze and marble, 's but a mouse.
O what if gardens where the peacock strays
With delicate feet upon old terraces,
Or else all Juno from an urn displays
Before the indifferent garden deities;
O what if levelled lawns and gravelled ways
Where slippered Contemplation finds his ease
And Childhood a delight for every sense,
But take our greatness with our violence?
What if the glory of escutcheoned doors,
And buildings that a haughtier age designed,
The pacing to and fro on polished floors
Amid great chambers and long galleries, lined
With famous portraits of our ancestors;
What if those things the greatest of mankind
Consider most to magnify, or to bless,
But take our greatness with our bitterness?
II. My House
An ancient bridge, and a more ancient tower,
A farmhouse that is sheltered by its wall,
An acre of stony ground,
Where the symbolic rose can break in flower,
Old ragged elms, old thorns innumerable,
The sound of the rain or sound
Of every wind that blows;
The stilted water-hen
Crossing Stream again
Scared by the splashing of a dozen cows;
A winding stair, a chamber arched with stone,
A grey stone fireplace with an open hearth,
A candle and written page.
Il Penseroso's Platonist toiled on
In some like chamber, shadowing forth
How the daemonic rage
Imagined everything.
Benighted travellers
From markets and from fairs
Have seen his midnight candle glimmering.
Two men have founded here. A man-at-arms
Gathered a score of horse and spent his days
In this tumultuous spot,
Where through long wars and sudden night alarms
His dwinding score and he seemed castaways
Forgetting and forgot;
And I, that after me
My bodily heirs may find,
To exalt a lonely mind,
Befitting emblems of adversity.
III. My Table
Two heavy trestles, and a board
Where Sato's gift, a changeless sword,
By pen and paper lies,
That it may moralise
My days out of their aimlessness.
A bit of an embroidered dress
Covers its wooden sheath.
Chaucer had not drawn breath
When it was forged. In Sato's house,
Curved like new moon, moon-luminous
It lay five hundred years.
Yet if no change appears
No moon; only an aching heart
Conceives a changeless work of art.
Our learned men have urged
That when and where 'twas forged
A marvellous accomplishment,
In painting or in pottery, went
From father unto son
And through the centuries ran
And seemed unchanging like the sword.
Soul's beauty being most adored,
Men and their business took
Me soul's unchanging look;
For the most rich inheritor,
Knowing that none could pass Heaven's door,
That loved inferior art,
Had such an aching heart
That he, although a country's talk
For silken clothes and stately walk.
Had waking wits; it seemed
Juno's peacock screamed.
IV. My Descendants
Having inherited a vigorous mind
From my old fathers, I must nourish dreams
And leave a woman and a man behind
As vigorous of mind, and yet it seems
Life scarce can cast a fragrance on the wind,
Scarce spread a glory to the morning beams,
But the torn petals strew the garden plot;
And there's but common greenness after that.
And what if my descendants lose the flower
Through natural declension of the soul,
Through too much business with the passing hour,
Through too much play, or marriage with a fool?
May this laborious stair and this stark tower
Become a roofless min that the owl
May build in the cracked masonry and cry
Her desolation to the desolate sky.
The primum Mobile that fashioned us
Has made the very owls in circles move;
And I, that count myself most prosperous,
Seeing that love and friendship are enough,
For an old neighbour's friendship chose the house
And decked and altered it for a girl's love,
And know whatever flourish and decline
These stones remain their monument and mine.
V. The Road at My Door
An affable Irregular,
A heavily-built Falstaffian man,
Comes cracking jokes of civil war
As though to die by gunshot were
The finest play under the sun.
A brown Lieutenant and his men,
Half dressed in national uniform,
Stand at my door, and I complain
Of the foul weather, hail and rain,
A pear-tree broken by the storm.
I count those feathered balls of soot
The moor-hen guides upon the stream.
To silence the envy in my thought;
And turn towards my chamber, caught
In the cold snows of a dream.
VI. The Stare's Nest by My Window
The bees build in the crevices
Of loosening masonry, and there
The mother birds bring grubs and flies.
My wall is loosening; honey-bees,
Come build in the empty house of the state.
We are closed in, and the key is turned
On our uncertainty; somewhere
A man is killed, or a house burned,
Yet no clear fact to be discerned:
Come build in he empty house of the stare.
A barricade of stone or of wood;
Some fourteen days of civil war;
Last night they trundled down the road
That dead young soldier in his blood:
Come build in the empty house of the stare.
We had fed the heart on fantasies,
The heart's grown brutal from the fare;
More Substance in our enmities
Than in our love; O honey-bees,
Come build in the empty house of the stare.
VII. I see Phantoms of Hatred and of the Heart's
Fullness and of the Coming Emptiness
I climb to the tower-top and lean upon broken stone,
A mist that is like blown snow is sweeping over all,
Valley, river, and elms, under the light of a moon
That seems unlike itself, that seems unchangeable,
A glittering sword out of the east. A puff of wind
And those white glimmering fragments of the mist sweep by.
Frenzies bewilder, reveries perturb the mind;
Monstrous familiar images swim to the mind's eye.
'Vengeance upon the murderers,' the cry goes up,
'Vengeance for Jacques Molay.' In cloud-pale rags, or in lace,
The rage-driven, rage-tormented, and rage-hungry troop,
Trooper belabouring trooper, biting at arm or at face,
Plunges towards nothing, arms and fingers spreading wide
For the embrace of nothing; and I, my wits astray
Because of all that senseless tumult, all but cried
For vengeance on the murderers of Jacques Molay.
Their legs long, delicate and slender, aquamarine their eyes,
Magical unicorns bear ladies on their backs.
The ladies close their musing eyes. No prophecies,
Remembered out of Babylonian almanacs,
Have closed the ladies' eyes, their minds are but a pool
Where even longing drowns under its own excess;
Nothing but stillness can remain when hearts are full
Of their own sweetness, bodies of their loveliness.
The cloud-pale unicorns, the eyes of aquamarine,
The quivering half-closed eyelids, the rags of cloud or of lace,
Or eyes that rage has brightened, arms it has made lean,
Give place to an indifferent multitude, give place
To brazen hawks. Nor self-delighting reverie,
Nor hate of what's to come, nor pity for what's gone,
Nothing but grip of claw, and the eye's complacency,
The innumerable clanging wings that have put out the moon.
I turn away and shut the door, and on the stair
Wonder how many times I could have proved my worth
In something that all others understand or share;
But O! ambitious heart, had such a proof drawn forth
A company of friends, a conscience set at ease,
It had but made us pine the more. The abstract joy,
The half-read wisdom of daemonic images,
Suffice the ageing man as once the growing boy.
"How shall I be a poet?
How shall I write in rhyme?
You told me once the very wish
Partook of the sublime:
Then tell me how. Don't put me off
With your 'another time'."
The old man smiled to see him,
To hear his sudden sally;
He liked the lad to speak his mind
And thought, "There's no hum-drum in him,
Nor any shilly-shally."
"And would you be a poet
Before you've been to school?
Ah well! I hardly thought you
So absolute a fool.
First learn to be spasmodic—
A very simple rule.
"For first you write a sentence,
And then you chop it small!
Then mix the bits, and sort them out
Just as they chance to fall:
The order of the phrases makes
No difference at all.
"Then, if you'd be impressive,
Remember what I say,
The abstract qualities begin
With capitals alway:
The True, the Good, the Beautiful,
These are the things that pay!
"Next, when you are describing
A shape, or sound, or tint,
Don't state the matter plainly,
But put it in a hint;
And learn to look at all things
With a sort of mental squint."
"For instance, if I wished, Sir,
Of mutton-pies to tell,
Should I say 'Dreams of fleecy flocks
Pent in a wheaten cell'?"
"Why, yes," the old man said: "that phrase
Would answer very well.
"Then, fourthly, there are epithets
That suit with any word—
As well as Harvey's Reading Sauce
With fish, or flesh, or bird—
Of these 'wild,' 'lonely,' 'weary,' 'strange,'
Are much to be preferred."
"And will it do, O will it do
To take them in a lump—
As 'the wild man went his weary way
To a strange and lonely pump'?"
"Nay, nay! You must not hastily
To such conclusions jump.
"Such epithets, like pepper,
Give zest to what you write,
And, if you strew them sparely,
They whet the appetite:
But if you lay them on too thick,
You spoil the matter quite!
"Last, as to the arrangement;
Your reader, you should show him,
Must take what information he
Can get, and look for no im-
mature disclosure of the drift
And purpose of your poem.
"Therefore, to test his patience—
How much he can endure—
Mention no places, names, nor dates,
And evermore be sure
Throughout the poem to be found
Consistently obscure.
"First fix upon the limit
To which it shall extend:
Then fill it up with 'padding',
(Beg some of any friend):
Your great sensation-stanza
You place towards the end.
Now try your hand, ere Fancy
Have lost its present glow—"
"And then," his grandson added,
"We'll publish it, you know:
Green cloth—gold-lettered at the back,
In duodecimo!"
Then proudly smiled the old man
To see the eager lad
Rush madly for his pen and ink
And for his blotting-pad—
But when he thought of publishing,
His face grew stern and sad.
I was born in 1902
I never once went back to my birthplace
I don't like to turn back
at three I served as a pasha's grandson in Aleppo
at nineteen as a student at Moscow Communist University
at forty-nine I was back in Moscow as the Tcheka Party's guest
and I've been a poet since I was fourteen
some people know all about plants some about fish
I know separation
some people know the names of the stars by heart
I recite absences
I've slept in prisons and in grand hotels
I've known hunger even a hunger strike and there's almost no food
I haven't tasted
at thirty they wanted to hang me
at forty-eight to give me the Peace Prize
which they did
at thirty-six I covered four square meters of concrete in half a year
at fifty-nine I flew from Prague to Havana in eighteen hours
I never saw Lenin I stood watch at his coffin in '24
in '61 the tomb I visit is his books
they tried to tear me away from my party
it didn't work
nor was I crushed under the falling idols
in '51 I sailed with a young friend into the teeth of death
in '52 I spent four months flat on my back with a broken heart
waiting to die
I was jealous of the women I loved
I didn't envy Charlie Chaplin one bit
I deceived my women
I never talked my friends' backs
I drank but not every day
I earned my bread money honestly what happiness
out of embarrassment for others I lied
I lied so as not to hurt someone else
but I also lied for no reason at all
I've ridden in trains planes and cars
most people don't get the chance
I went to opera
most people haven't even heard of the opera
and since '21 I haven't gone to the places most people visit
mosques churches temples synagogues sorcerers
but I've had my coffee grounds read
my writings are published in thirty or forty languages
in my Turkey in my Turkish they're banned
cancer hasn't caught up with me yet
and nothing says it will
I'll never be a prime minister or anything like that
and I wouldn't want such a life
nor did I go to war
or burrow in bomb shelters in the bottom of the night
and I never had to take to the road under diving planes
but I fell in love at almost sixty
in short comrades
even if today in Berlin I'm croaking of grief
I can say I've lived like a human being
and who knows
how much longer I'll live
what else will happen to me
This autobiography was written
in east Berlin on 11 September 1961
Here I am in the garden laughing
an old woman with heavy breasts
and a nicely mapped face
how did this happen
well that's who I wanted to be
at last a woman
in the old style sitting
stout thighs apart under
a big skirt grandchild sliding
on off my lap a pleasant
summer perspiration
that's my old man across the yard
he's talking to the meter reader
he's telling him the world's sad story
how electricity is oil or uranium
and so forth I tell my grandson
run over to your grandpa ask him
to sit beside me for a minute I
am suddenly exhausted by my desire
to kiss his sweet explaining lips.
I ate pancakes one night in a Pancake House
Run by a lady my age. She was gay.
When I told her that I came from Pasadena
She laughed and said, "I lived in Pasadena
When Fatty Arbuckle drove the El Molino bus."
I felt that I had met someone from home.
No, not Pasadena, Fatty Arbuckle.
Who's that? Oh, something that we had in common
Like -- like -- the false armistice. Piano rolls.
She told me her house was the first Pancake House
East of the Mississippi, and I showed her
A picture of my grandson. Going home --
Home to the hotel -- I began to hum,
"Smile a while, I bid you sad adieu,
When the clouds roll back I'll come to you."
Let's brush our hair before we go to bed,
I say to the old friend who lives in my mirror.
I remember how I'd brush my mother's hair
Before she bobbed it. How long has it been
Since I hit my funnybone? had a scab on my knee?
Here are Mother and Father in a photograph,
Father's holding me.... They both look so young.
I'm so much older than they are. Look at them,
Two babies with their baby. I don't blame you,
You weren't old enough to know any better;
If I could I'd go back, sit down by you both,
And sign our true armistice: you weren't to blame.
I shut my eyes and there's our living room.
The piano's playing something by Chopin,
And Mother and Father and their little girl
Listen. Look, the keys go down by themselves!
I go over, hold my hands out, play I play --
If only, somehow, I had learned to live!
The three of us sit watching, as my waltz
Plays itself out a half-inch from my fingers.
Shepherd. That cry's from the first cuckoo of the year.
I wished before it ceased.
Goatherd. Nor bird nor beast
Could make me wish for anything this day,
Being old, but that the old alone might die,
And that would be against God's providence.
Let the young wish. But what has brought you here?
Never until this moment have we met
Where my goats browse on the scarce grass or leap
From stone to Stone.
Shepherd. I am looking for strayed sheep;
Something has troubled me and in my rrouble
I let them stray. I thought of rhyme alone,
For rhme can beat a measure out of trouble
And make the daylight sweet once more; but when
I had driven every rhyme into its Place
The sheep had gone from theirs.
Goatherd. I know right well
What turned so good a shepherd from his charge.
Shepherd. He that was best in every country sport
And every country craft, and of us all
Most courteous to slow age and hasty youth,
Is dead.
Goatherd. The boy that brings my griddle-cake
Brought the bare news.
Shepherd. He had thrown the crook away
And died in the great war beyond the sea.
Goatherd. He had often played his pipes among my hills,
And when he played it was their loneliness,
The exultation of their stone, that died
Under his fingers.
Shepherd. I had it from his mother,
And his own flock was browsing at the door.
Goatherd. How does she bear her grief? There is not a
But grows more gentle when he speaks her name,
Remembering kindness done, and how can I,
That found when I had neither goat nor grazing
New welcome and old wisdom at her fire
Till winter blasts were gone, but speak of her
Even before his children and his wife?
Shepherd. She goes about her house erect and calm
Between the pantry and the linen-chest,
Or else at meadow or at grazing overlooks
Her labouring men, as though her darling lived,
But for her grandson now; there is no change
But such as I have Seen upon her face
Watching our shepherd sports at harvest-time
When her son's turn was over.
Goatherd. Sing your song.
I too have rhymed my reveries, but youth
Is hot to show whatever it has found,
And till that's done can neither work nor wait.
Old goatherds and old goats, if in all else
Youth can excel them in accomplishment,
Are learned in waiting.
Shepherd. You cannot but have seen
That he alone had gathered up no gear,
Set carpenters to work on no wide table,
On no long bench nor lofty milking-shed
As others will, when first they take possession,
But left the house as in his father's time
As though he knew himself, as it were, a cuckoo,
No settled man. And now that he is gone
There's nothing of him left but half a score
Of sorrowful, austere, sweet, lofty pipe tunes.
Goatherd. You have put the thought in rhyme.
Shepherd. I worked all day,
And when 'twas done so little had I done
That maybe "I am sorry' in plain prose
Had Sounded better to your mountain fancy.
[He sings.]
"Like the speckled bird that steers
Thousands of leagues oversea,
And runs or a while half-flies
On his yellow legs through our meadows.
He stayed for a while; and we
Had scarcely accustomed our ears
To his speech at the break of day,
Had scarcely accustomed our eyes
To his shape at the rinsing-pool
Among the evening shadows,
When he vanished from ears and eyes.
I might have wished on the day
He came, but man is a fool.'
Goatherd. You sing as always of the natural life,
And I that made like music in my youth
Hearing it now have sighed for that young man
And certain lost companions of my own.
Shepherd. They say that on your barren mountain ridge
You have measured out the road that the soul treads
When it has vanished from our natural eyes;
That you have talked with apparitions.
Goatherd. Indeed
My daily thoughts since the first stupor of youth
Have found the path my goats' feet cannot find.
Shepherd. Sing, for it may be that your thoughts have
Some medicable herb to make our grief
Less bitter.
Goatherd. They have brought me from that ridge
Seed-pods and flowers that are not all wild poppy.
"He grows younger every second
That were all his birthdays reckoned
Much too solemn seemed;
Because of what he had dreamed,
Or the ambitions that he served,
Much too solemn and reserved.
Jaunting, journeying
To his own dayspring,
He unpacks the loaded pern
Of all 'twas pain or joy to learn,
Of all that he had made.
The outrageous war shall fade;
At some old winding whitethorn root
He'll practise on the shepherd's flute,
Or on the close-cropped grass
Court his shepherd lass,
Or put his heart into some game
Till daytime, playtime seem the same;
Knowledge he shall unwind
Through victories of the mind,
Till, clambering at the cradle-side,
He dreams himself hsi mother's pride,
All knowledge lost in trance
Of sweeter ignorance.'
Shepherd. When I have shut these ewes and this old ram
Into the fold, we'll to the woods and there
Cut out our rhymes on strips of new-torn bark
But put no name and leave them at her door.
To know the mountain and the valley have grieved
May be a quiet thought to wife and mother,
And children when they spring up shoulder-high.
I call on those that call me son,
Grandson, or great-grandson,
On uncles, aunts, great-uncles or great-aunts,
To judge what I have done.
Have I, that put it into words,
Spoilt what old loins have sent?
Eyes spiritualised by death can judge,
I cannot, but I am not content.
He that in Sligo at Drumcliff
Set up the old stone Cross,
That red-headed rector in County Down,
A good man on a horse,
Sandymount Corbets, that notable man
Old William pollexfen,
The smuggler Middleton, Butlers far back,
Half legendary men.
Infirm and aged I might stay
In some good company,
I who have always hated work,
Smiling at the sea,
Or demonstrate in my own life
What Robert Browning meant
By an old hunter talking with Gods;
But I am not content.
THE tale of the Count our glad song shall record
Who had in this castle his dwelling,
Where now ye are feasting the new-married lord,
His grandson of whom we are telling.
The Count as Crusader had blazon'd his fame,
Through many a triumph exalted his name,
And when on his steed to his dwelling he came,
His castle still rear'd its proud head,
But servants and wealth had all fled.
'Tis true that thou, Count, hast return'd to thy home,
But matters are faring there ill.
The winds through the chambers at liberty roam,
And blow through the windows at will
What's best to be done in a cold autumn night?
Full many I've pass'd in more piteous plight;
The morn ever settles the matter aright.
Then quick, while the moon shines so clear,
To bed on the straw, without fear,
And whilst in a soft pleasing slumber he lay,
A motion he feels 'neath his bed.
The rat, an he likes it, may rattle away!
Ay, had he but crumbs there outspread!
But lo! there appears a diminutive wight,
A dwarf 'tis, yet graceful, and bearing a light,
With orator-gestures that notice invite,
At the feet of the Count on the floor
Who sleeps not, though weary full sore.
"We've long been accustom'd to hold here our feast,
Since thou from thy castle first went;
And as we believed thou wert far in the East,
To revel e'en now we were bent.
And if thou'lt allow it, and seek not to chide,
We dwarfs will all banquet with pleasure and pride,
To honour the wealthy, the beautiful bride
Says the Count with a smile, half-asleep;--
"Ye're welcome your quarters to keep!"
Three knights then advance, riding all in a group,
Who under the bed were conceal'd;
And then is a singing and noise-making troop
Of strange little figures reveal'd;
And waggon on waggon with all kinds of things--
The clatter they cause through the ear loudly rings--
The like ne'er was seen save in castles of kings;
At length, in a chariot of gold,
The bride and the guests too, behold!
Then all at full gallop make haste to advance,
Each chooses his place in the hall;
With whirling and waltzing, and light joyous dance,
They begin with their sweethearts the ball.
The fife and the fiddle all merrily sound,
Thy twine, and they glide, and with nimbleness bound,
Thy whisper, and chatter, and, chatter around;
The Count on the scene casts his eye,
And seems in a fever to lie.
They hustle, and bustle, and rattle away
On table, on bench, and on stool;
Then all who had joined in the festival gay
With their partners attempt to grow cool.
The hams and the sausages nimbly they bear,
And meat, fish, and poultry in plenty are there,
Surrounded with wine of the vintage most rare:
And when they have revell'd full long,
They vanish at last with a song.
* * * * * *
And if we're to sing all that further occurr'd,
Pray cease ye to bluster and prate;
For what he so gladly in small saw and heard
He enjoy'd and he practis'd in great.
For trumpets, and singing, and shouts without end
On the bridal-train, chariots and horsemen attend,
They come and appear, and they bow and they bend,
In merry and countless array.
Thus was it, thus is it to-day.
Forget the suffering
You caused others.
Forget the suffering
Others caused you.
The waters run and run,
Springs sparkle and are done,
You walk the earth you are forgetting.
Sometimes you hear a distant refrain.
What does it mean, you ask, who is singing?
A childlike sun grows warm.
A grandson and a great-grandson are born.
You are led by the hand once again.
The names of the rivers remain with you.
How endless those rivers seem!
Your fields lie fallow,
The city towers are not as they were.
You stand at the threshold mute.
AFTER these vernal rains
That we so warmly sought,
Dear wife, see how our plains
With blessings sweet are fraught!
We cast our distant gaze
Far in the misty blue;
Here gentle love still strays,
Here dwells still rapture true.
Thou seest whither go
Yon pair of pigeons white,
Where swelling violets blow
Round sunny foliage bright.
'Twas there we gather'd first
A nosegay as we roved;
There into flame first burst
The passion that we proved.
Yet when, with plighted troth,
The priest beheld us fare
Home from the altar both,
With many a youthful pair,--
Then other moons had birth,
And many a beauteous sun,
Then we had gain'd the earth
Whereon life's race to run.
A hundred thousand fold
The mighty bond was seal'd;
In woods, on mountains cold,
In bushes, in the field,
Within the wall, in caves,
And on the craggy height,
And love, e'en o'er the waves,
Bore in his tube the light.
Contented we remain'd,
We deem'd ourselves a pair;
'Twas otherwise ordain'd,
For, lo! a third was there;
A fourth, fifth, sixth appear'd,
And sat around our board;
And now the plants we've rear'd
High o'er our heads have soar'd!
How fair and pleasant looks,
On yonder beauteous spot,
Embraced by poplar-brooks,
The newly-finish'd cot!
Who is it there that sits
In that glad home above?
Is't not our darling Fritz
With his own darling love?
Beside yon precipice,
Whence pent-up waters steal,
And leaving the abyss,
Fall foaming through the wheel,
Though people often tell
Of millers' wives so fair,
Yet none can e'er excel
Our dearest daughter there!
Yet where the thick-set green
Stands round yon church and sad,
Where the old fir-tree's seen
Alone tow'rd heaven to nod,--
'Tis there the ashes lie
Of our untimely dead;
From earth our gaze on high
By their blest memory's led.
See how yon hill is bright
With billowy-waving arms!
The force returns, whose might
Has vanquished war's alarms.
Who proudly hastens here
With wreath-encircled brow?
'Tis like our child so dear
Thus Charles comes homeward now.
That dearest honour'd guest
Is welcom'd by the bride;
She makes the true one blest,
At the glad festal tide.
And ev'ry one makes haste
To join the dance with glee;
While thou with wreaths hast graced
The youngest children three.
To sound of flute and horn
The time appears renew'd,
When we, in love's young morn,
In the glad dance upstood;
And perfect bliss I know
Ere the year's course is run,
For to the font we go
With grandson and with son!

In the next few weeks, shareholders will be able to make use of a new ratings service. It will help them decide how to vote at the 600 or so annual general meetings this year. The ratings service has been set up by Pirc, the corporate governance advisors. They represent 60 institutions, with more than £350bn under management.
Pirc will award a score based on the letters A to C for new share incentive schemes and renumeration reports. If a 'C' is given for just one aspect of a scheme, Pirc will recommend it be thrown out. Previously, Pirc simply gave a voting recommendation for the whole scheme.
Companies will also face new requirements to get high marks. For example they must justify why their renumeration policy is the right one for their industry.
High-profile cases of 'rewards for failure', such as that of former Marconi boss Lord Simpson, and lucrative share option schemes without tough performance targets, such as that planned by DFS Furniture, has increased pressure to be vigilant. Investors are also becoming more willing to voice their anger.
Pirc said many companies use expensive pay consultants to devise complex reward packages. 'Often investors don't have the same resources to scrutinise them. The ratings system tries to redress the balance.'

This became a bit difficult when I cut my thumb on a chainsaw during my time off for Thanksgiving. The ER told me it was a good chainsaw injury in that it only require 3 stitches and wasn't the loss of a body part or head trauma. This actually kept me from getting out because of the pain when I'd try to grasp anything like handlebars...or my toothbrush.
This weekend, the temperatures reached the mid-40's and I knew I only needed 17.5 miles to go over my mileage for the past two years combined, so I headed out for a ride between church and the children's program at church that evening. I was able to complete 18.6 miles, bringing my year total to 1,111.95 miles. That's crazy to think I rode over 1,110 miles in a single year! That included two 100 mile rides, with one of those being the same weekend as another ride that I participated in. That weekend, I completed 164 miles between Saturday and Sunday. I never thought I'd complete that kind of mileage in a single weekend!
I'm looking forward to more riding next year and am trying to decide what goals to set for myself. I'm also starting to consider other gear I may need. Below is a list of items I'm starting to think I may need:
- Toe covers to help keep the cold off of my toes while riding in cooler weather.
- Winter long legged bibs for warmth in cooler weather.
- Long-fingered gloves.
- Rear rack with pannier bags for longer rides or commuting to work.
- Professional bike fitting to make sure I'm on the bike right. My back and shoulders always bother me after a ride, so I think there may be some adjustments needed.
- RoadID. I have a ID on my shoe that my wife got me, but I really like the design of the RoadID bracelets.
- CO2 tire inflater. Had to hand pump up a tire early this year and that was not fun along the side the road.
- Faster bike? Or is it that I need to pedal harder or faster?
- Heart rate monitor bracelet (no chest strap!).
- NUUN Energy
- Rip Van Wafel
- Honey Stinger Waffles
- Gu Energy Gels (Vanilla and Root Beer)
- Several different energy bars and protein bars
Well, I guess that's all I really wanted to share. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year if I don't write again before 2015!Blog Gadgets

APT Nutrition
Here is what some of my clients have to said:
Setting up that first appointment with Tracy was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Tracy is extremely flexible regarding scheduling, is great at pushing your limits, and is really a lot of fun to work with! She also knows what she's talking about when it comes to exercise and nutrition. I really look forward to our sessions.
I did a few months personal training with Tracy last year. I was slightly dubious to start with as my previous cursory experience with PT hadn't been great. From the very first meeting, Tracy not only proved to be knowledgeable but also a good listener and great motivator. Her training sessions always did push me that little bit further than I thought I could. so much so that I ended up going for a charity place for the london marathon and completing it. Her unwavering support helped through difficult.personal times.and helped me gain the sf confidence to change a few key things in my life – much for the better. I even signed up for the Berlin marathon this year.
I thoroughly enjoy the class, every week different exercises are added so it doesn`t become boring, after the class the next couple of days my body feels like its actually done something,and I look forward to the next class.
Body-Box is a fun way to exercise and Tracy is a very motivating person. I enjoy my classes every week!
I have trained with Tracy since March 2008 and lost a total of 35lbs, using both their high level of gym equipment available and the Power Plate. We also embarked on a running programme which although I found incredibly tough to start with due to my lack of fitness, with Tracy's enthusiasm and encouragement, I could run 4 – 5 miles within 6 weeks of the training. Tracy is always professional and enthusiatic in her approach to the training she offers and takes great pride in carefully planning and creating achievable goals on an individual basis. I would recommend using Austin Personal Training 100%.
Having now trained with Tracy since July 2008 I have experienced significant rewards in weight loss (10kg.), higher level of fitness, superior muscle tone and now enjoy an increased energy for life.
Her focussed motivation and inspired innovation makes you complete each session exhilarated. She employs a subtle blend of new concepts with old fashioned grunt & sweat and the results are visible within a month.
I would have no hesitation in recommending her unique training ability to anyone who seriously wanted to achieve their goal. Her personable no-nonsense direction will definitely get you results you seek.
I was given a series of PT session as a Christmas present at end 2008, and have been so impressed that I have kept them up ever since. Tracy adapts her methods and techniques to the individual, but never fails to encourage and push you to attain your optimum performance. This is not just about hvaing a work-out partner though – it is about advice, encouragement, inspiration and (though I never thought I would say this) fun. My aerobic fitness has increased hugely since I started, and my muscles are getting toned. The weight loss is an extra advantage – 34lb to mid May….
Tracy has been my personal trainer since January 09. More important than the weight loss is the massive improvements in general health:fat reduction, increased mobility, reduction in cholesterol levels and blood pressure and a reduced resting heart rate that I haven't seen since I was a teenager competing at national level in two sports. I'm in my mid 40's and have not been so fit since I stopped competing at the age of 21.
Personal Training is your personal journey to fitness & better health. Today, tomorrow and for the rest of your life…– Tracy Austin

Democratization of Hitmen
This dissertation discusses the ancient profession of the hitman from its early mythical origins to our present day. By drawing from a literature comprising of historical sources, US Secret Service data, and the autobiographies of renowned hitmen, the book will first provide an approximate understanding of these law offenders by looking at their backgrounds and goals, and then compare their characteristics to those expressed by "makeshift killers." Hence, the paper will aim at defining that: 1) our modern, business-oriented society is affecting the modus operandi adopted by freelance professional killers in reaching their clientele, which often resembles the customary approach of other legally recognized professions, and 2) due to astounding improvements in transport and communication technologies, hitmen are becoming further delocalized from their areas of origin to operate on a truly global scale. Finally, the book argues that with modern wealth and opportunity, hitmen are no longer restrained to work for criminal organizations, politicians, or businessmen, but have become available to an ever-growing and varying demand, thus following the democratizing process undergone by other professions.

Srinagar, Sept 12 : At least one person was killed in Srinagar today, when fresh clashes erupted between the police and separatists-led protesters.
The clashes took place between supporters of Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) leader Yasin Malik and the police.
The protesters took to the streets shortly after Friday prayers following a shutdown called by separatists.
During the clashes JKLF chief Yasin Malik and several other protestors were injured. He was taken to SMHS hospital for treatment.
According to reports, police fired tear gas shells and used batons to disperse thousands of demonstrators who assembled at Lal Chowk and staged a sit-in in response to the call given by separatists' Co-ordination Committee.
Malik, while addressing the demonstrators, said, "Our movement is peaceful and no military can defeat the resolve of Kashmiris."
The Committee had given the shutdown call from 12.30 P.M.
In Srinagar and other district headquarters shopkeepers pulled down their shutters and thousands of slogan shouting people took to the streets after Friday prayers.
Clashes also occurred in Koker bazaar, Maisuma, Court road and adjoining localities, according to reports.
Police and paramilitary forces had been deployed in strength outside all mosques and shrines and sensitive localities to maintain law and order.

There have been down times since a knee injury sidelined him with two games left in the 2006 season. He missed spring practice and his weight ballooned to 254 pounds.
"When I got injured there were a lot of things that ran through my mind, first of all would I be able to come back and if I came back, would I see snaps," Washington said. "It's been tough, but I'm trying to live right, trying to pray, keep God first in my life."
Washington's knee fatigued early in the preseason but he began making it through complete practices without a problem this week, he said.
"Thankfully, (the knee) is responding right now because we really need him," Coach Mark Richt said. "He's got his weight down, he looks good."
Washington, who is down to 240 pounds and hopes to be 235 by the time the season begins, is holding off true freshman Charles White for the backup middle linebacker position and hasn't given up on earning the starting spot from Dannell Ellerbe, he said.
"We've got to keep practicing and see what happens," he said, "see if I can make a move."
Washington played in 11 games each of the last two seasons and had 11 tackles as a true freshman. That number dipped to four last year.
"Every once in a while you look back and say, 'We should have played so-and-so more,'" Richt said. "He should have played more last year. We need to make sure he gets in the game. He's a very good football player and really understand what we're doing."

Yes, but in this case we were using it first, not Sun. Similarly, Apache Avalon was in existence long before Microsoft exposed it as a code name.

It comes when you get flustered, when your heart starts racing, when you get shy and embarrassed, when you see a cute boy you've had a crush on for quite some time, when you've spent a whole day in the park basking under the sun and when your heart starts pumping from dancing all night under the hot heat… I love that glow
Makeup: How To Be A Natural Beauty
Sometimes you don't need expensive beauty products you can be a natural beauty; I'm all about natural sources and benefits that come from the wild. There are a lot of things you can get out of herbs — they are not only great for adding interest to your cooking, but also can contribute wonderfully to your beauty regime.
Makeup Monday: Chanel Resort 2013
Chanel's latest resort collection was reminiscent of Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette film. Pastel colours were not only in the clothes but trailed all the way to the hair and makeup.
The look… powdered wigs, rosy cheeks, painted lips which all fell in nicely with the French Versailles Palace where the collection was hosted. It may seem a bit much to wear on a daily basis, but we loved how fun the overall look appeared.
Makeup Monday: Color those Lashes
I remember I first discovered colored mascara in my teens, there was something about putting strikes of color around my eyes that made me feel somewhat magical. When Stella McCartney brought it back in her Fall 2012 collection nostalgia started to kick in.
Makeup Monday: Be Adventurous
Summer is the time when there are a lot of parties outside and endless hours spent at parks with your friends. I love the idea of having little sun gatherings with friends, saluting the sun with bright colours and giggles and not knowing how the day will end.

We are so excited to bring to you this RARE and exciting potion that we would like to share part of the history with you on this blessed gift that has been bestowed upon our coven. On a recent travel expedition to visit with partner covens, Lucas, one of our 13, shared time with the world famous Golden Galleys Coven based in St. Augustine, Florida. The city of St. Augustine is home to the Fountain of Youth National Archaeological Park, a tribute to the spot where Ponce de León is said to have landed.
Author Charlie Carlson has spoken with a St. Augustine-based secret society claiming to be the protectors of the Fountain of Youth, which has granted them extraordinary longevity. In August 2006, popular American magician David Copperfield stated, "I've discovered a true phenomenon. You can take dead leaves, they encounter the water, and they become full of life again. - Bugs or insects that are near death, exposed to the water, fly away. It's an amazing thing, very, very exciting." Copperfield, who turns 55 in September 2011, says that he hired scientists to conduct an examination of the "legendary" water, but as of now, the main fountain remains off limits to outside visitors. This still holds true today UNLESS you have an "in", which the Golden Galleys Coven did! Lucas was granted permission to extract a generous quantity of this miraculous water to be used in an elite, exotic, never offered before, Cosmic Guru FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH UNISEX POTION! Using this mystical water, our chemist created this youthful potion and we are elated and abundantly proud to offer its amazing properties to you!
Male or female...if you are unhappy with the ageing mirror image you see each day, it is not an accident that you came upon our listing today. Destiny, and the high spiritual powers that exist, have guided you to our coven. It is undoubtedly time for you to begin living your life with youthful confidence in body and mind. Yes, you too can be self-confident, secure, poised, balanced, and bursting with a fresh and youthful appearance!
The potion is to be worn daily, a single drop on your skin, as if you were putting on perfume/cologne. This cobolt blue bottle contains one ounce (3.25" high - 1.25" width) of our "secret" Fountain of Youth H2O based potion formula. That is enough to last you a long time if used as directed! Lightly scented it will not interfere with other perfumes/colognes you may like to wear. The potion is 100% free of alcohol and chemicals. It is organic, and natural. There are positively no side effects with this potion. It will not harm you in any way. It has been refined and proven to be not only safe, but also very successful.
Sadly, women and men today are inundated by media images of what they should be, and what they should look like. Unfortunately, if not so blessed, it can hold back success in various areas of life. In this modern society, age appearance makes a difference and does count. If you are unhappy with your appearance, we can help in a beautiful, organic way.
In as little as 3 week's time, you will begin noticing subtle changes with your body. You will notice subtle changes in your appearance and an increase in your levels of euphoria, happiness, and confidence.
This mighty potion was also blessed at a midnight summoning by Hebe, The Goddess Of Youth, making this authentic and rare potion extremely desirable. It will not be offered in high quantities, or frequently, like many others you see on the web. This is a rare and outstanding item. It belongs only with the most serious person that deeply desires change, someone that will truly respect its divine power.
Every person is one of a kind, and his or her desires are unique. This potion was formulated to work directly within your "minds eye", for your own personal desires. The potion will acclimate to your body's energies nearly immediately, at which time the magick will flow through your body, and begin manifesting into your desired reality.
Perky breasts, abs, pecks, biceps, weight loss, less wrinkles, turkey neck, beauty, frown lines, crows feet, face, hips, curves, skin, age spots, body hair removal, hair growth, whatever you desire. These things are all possible with the help of this amazing, limited time offer potion.
Upon cleared payment, we will gently and carefully package this rare potion and ship it to you within 24 business hours. There will be no shipping cost to you. You can have the youthful look that you once had. You can have the physique you long for, the shapelier body, the sexy allure, and the confidence you have always desired. Smooth complexion, striking appearance, and "to die for" youthfulness. You can be the envy of all your friends! It is authentic, it is here, and it can be yours. Do not delay dear friends; act fast, as this is a very limited supply.

On Fri, 13 Jul 2001, Dani Zweig <firstname.lastname@example.com> wrote: > a. I want to compile some of my classes with jdk1.2 and some with > jdk1.3.

Setting the build.compiler switch to classic will make Ant use the "classic" compiler, but it will be the one from the JDK you've used to start Ant - probably the classic compiler of JDK 1.3. You can get away with a single build file and antcall: <target name="compile-1.2"> your 1.2 javac task here </target> <target name="compile-1.3"> your 1.3 javac task here </target> <target name="compile"> <antcall target="compile-1.2"> <param name="build.compiler" value="classic" /> </antcall> <antcall target="compile-1.3"> <param name="build.compiler" value="modern" /> </antcall> </target> You can skip one of the two antcalls in favor of a depends attribute if you know which setting of build.compiler will be the default. If you really need two different JDKs, set the includeruntime and includeantruntime attributes of <javac> to false and add tools.jar as well as rt.jar of the required JDK to the classpath of that task explicitly. Your second point: [src/foo/real-source-try and src/bar/real-source-tree - compile it using having multiple <src> elements] > However, this breaks down when we try to produce patterns that will > identify **/*.java in foo and only a few files in bar without > reverting to making 'src' the srcdir. Is there a better way? Probably not - maybe include-files can help here? Stefan

Mom to:
Three big girls (10) + (almost 9!);
One little boy (6) and a full on toddler (8/12) born with TAPVR (repaired at 6 days old).
i'm a lot more exhausted than i was when Terran was two weeks old.
Today at church we were talking (I'm in a women's group/class for Sunday School) about a lady that had surgery and how we should take her some meals the next couple weeks. The leader lady was saying how we always remember the young moms but we need to work more to support older women/all women as well. Well I am the only "young" woman in there and it took every thing I had not to yell "But NONE of you did anything for me!!! Not a single meal, thanks!" I was really irritated and honestly I'm pretty hurt and couldn't have said anythign because I would have started crying. There was a woman in church that had a baby (her first) a month before me and they provided her with meals for like 3 or 4 weeks atleast several times a week if not every night. Yeah, thinking about it, I am really hurt, she doesn't even come to our group.

But that 7-14 f2.8 zoom is sweet. Finally an alternative to the slower panny 7-14.
Well, we'd all like an F2 lens the size and price of an F7.1, but, you know, physics gets in the way. Just pick up the 4/3 300mm if you want faster, the 75-300 if you want smaller.

Private photos? Those photos were sent to the original owner's computer, so could be considered her property to do with as she wished. If the person possessing the phone can't be bothered to check for, disable the app, are you going to blame the person who stole it or the one from whom it was stolen?

Tropical commodities tied to Brazil pushed lower Friday as the Brazilian real weakened against the dollar for the third straight session, encouraging sellers in those markets.
The real has dropped 6.5% against the dollar since the outcome of the U.S. presidential election Tuesday on concerns that nationalist policies under President-elect Donald Trump could hurt trade, with the Brazilian central bank intervening two days in a row to prop up the currency.
Brazil is the world's largest producer of orange juice, sugar and coffee and a weaker real allows producers and exporters to recoup more of the local currency for sales of dollar denominated goods.
Arabica coffeefor December fell 1.5% to end at $1.5945 a pound. Raw sugar futures fell to 21.50 cents a pound at one point but recovered losses as high prices in China boosted expectations that the country will increase imports. The March contract ended up 0.2% at 21.70 cents a pound.
Frozen concentrated orange juice for January was down 2.4% to close at $2.1195 a pound.
Jack Scoville, vice president of Price Futures Group, said the weak real washed some bullish speculators out of the markets. All three markets had been in a bullish pose leading up to the election with ideas that sugar demand this year will outstrip supply, that lower robusta coffee production will lead to higher demand for arabica and with Florida's orange crop devastated by disease.
Despite the speculator washout, physical coffee prices in Brazil haven't changed much, said Thiago Marques Cazarini, a coffee broker with Cazarini Trading Company in Brazil.
"Producers keep asking unchanged levels as if market hasn't dropped," he said.
In other markets, cocoa for March was up 0.6% at $2,456 a ton and cotton for December lost 1% at 68.50 cents a pound.

text: TOKYO — Japanese officials struggled through the day on Tuesday to explain why it had taken them a month to disclose large-scale releases of radioactive material in mid-March at a crippled nuclear power plant, as the government and an electric utility disagreed on the extent of continuing problems there. The government announced Tuesday morning that it had raised its rating of the severity of the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station to 7, the worst on an international scale, from 5. Officials said that the reactor had released one-tenth as much radioactive material as the Chernobyl accident in 1986, but still qualified as a 7 according to a complex formula devised by the International Atomic Energy Agency. Japan's new assessment was based largely on computer models showing very heavy emissions of radioactive iodine and cesium from March 14 to 16, just after the earthquake and tsunami rendered the plant's emergency cooling system inoperative. The nearly monthlong delay in acknowledging the extent of these emissions is a fresh example of confused data and analysis from the Japanese, and put the authorities on the defensive about whether they have delayed or blocked the release of information to avoid alarming the public. Seiji Shiroya, a commissioner of Japan's Nuclear Safety Commission, an independent government panel that oversees the country's nuclear industry, said that the government had delayed issuing data on the extent of the radiation releases because of concern that the margins of error had been large in initial computer models. But he also suggested a public policy reason for having kept quiet. "Some foreigners fled the country even when there appeared to be little risk," he said. "If we immediately decided to label the situation as Level 7, we could have triggered a panicked reaction." The Japanese media, which has a reputation for passivity but has become more aggressive in response to public unhappiness about the nuclear accident, questioned government leaders through the day about what the government knew about the accident and when it knew it. Prime Minister Naoto Kan gave a nationally televised speech and press conference in the early evening to call for national rebuilding, but ended up defending his government's handling of information about the accident. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/13/world/asia/13japan.html

Redskins coach Jim Zorn will not remove Jason Campbell as the team's starting QB, ESPN and the NFL Network reported.
Zorn benched Campbell at halftime of the Redskins' 14-6 loss to Kansas City on Sunday in favor of veteran backup Todd Collins. He said earlier on Monday that he had not decided who would start next week against Philadelphia.
Collins led the team to only a field goal. Zorn, whom the Redskins stripped of play-calling duties after the team fell to 2-4, has now decided to stick with Campbell, who's started the team's past 22 games.
Redskins CB DeAngelo Hall was critical of Zorn's decision to change quarterbacks.
"Obviously that didn't work. So that's not the change you need," Hall told theWashington Post.
"I think if I was the guy, I would've left Jason in. ... I don't think that was the right move. Coach made that move. Ain't nothing I can do about it. He made that move, he had to live with it."
Campbell has completed 65.6% of his passes this year with six TDs and six INTs. -- Sean Leahy
Nate Davis is a reporter, blogger and editor who's been at USA TODAY since 2000. He has covered the NFL since 2005. No, he did not play quarterback for Ball State. Davis' succession of our esteemed colleague Sean Leahy at The Huddle is considered a Brady-for-Bledsoe swap by most "insiders."More about Nate

The GOP can CGI it close enough.
LOL! "Furious" my ass. Every media outlet buys this bullsh*t WH story. We all know damn well this was ordered by Axelrod himself for 2012 footage.
These goof balls in the White House think they're playing many of us for fools.
What the h&!! do they need a "photo shoot" for. A total waste of taxpayer money.
This clearly exposes how inexperienced and out of his league Obama is. If he can't handle something so basic, how would he handle a serious crisis? And Biden was right about one thing, Obama will be tested. We're in big trouble. 2010 and 2012 can't get here fast enough.
Is it still a secret? Why Obama?
This stunt, reported by FOX, cost the US Taxpayers about $380,000.00.
The president didn't know that Air Force One was flying over Manhattan?
Tell me another whopper!
Since Obama isn't gun shy about releasing interrogation memos putting all of us at risk, I wonder why he hasn't called for the public release of this memo over an incident that scared the crap out of every man, woman and child that lives and works near Ground Zero.
Where's all this "live our values" stuff? Ah, but it's just so fine to waste money, put unnecessary pollution in the air and scare the day lights out of the same people who lived through 9/11.
Arrogant retards.
Chaos and fear are a fascist's best friend... He could've even been the one to say - "do it anyway" and we'd never know... I don't trust him ONE BIT.
Fighters can photogragh but the quality sucks. There are better platforms to take pictures from. I submit to you that da bigg 0 loaned AF1 to one or more of his buddies for a fly-by and he will soon be outed.

1) Who was on Air Force One for this flight?
2) How much did this Photo Op cost, at a time when my taxes are being raised to death our convenient "crisis"?
3) Who requested and authorized this fiasco?
4) Exactly how many thousands of citizens were terrified by this fiasco?
5)What was the intended use of the photos taken?
AND, BTW, Obama's excuses: "The flyover — apparently ordered by the White House Office of Military Affairs so it would have souvenir photos of Air Force One with the Statue of Liberty in the background..." doesn't pass the "smell test". No way the DOD dreamed up this stunt. Why didn't they do this over the past eight years if it was so important? No, it was Obama and his merry band of delinquents and thugs who dreamed up this mess, and they need to be furnished big time.
The MSM can't cover up for Obama on this screw up.
The plane was in the friggin' sky and it terrorize New Yorkers, many of whom probably voted for the big Zero.
People can see that with their own eyes and they ain't buying the official story.
Since there is no reasonable explanation for what happen, the MSM will just have to sink this story down the memory hole. They will say, "The President apologized, so let's just move on. Now, more about the swine flu."
If the press doesn't zero in on this in the "100 Days" celebratory press conference, there is no press left at all.
Obama was NOT FURIOUS! The Jerk was laughing about it even today sitting next to Robert Mueller. If ZERO was truly FURIOUS about it, He would have responded immediately and Baghdad Bob Gibbs wouldn't have been laughing about it late in the afternoon, some eight hours after it happened and making a FOOL out of himself and ZERO HUSSEIN by telling the reporters they should contact the FAA or "THE WHITE HOUSE!" Gibbs is the WH, and the bassshat oughta at least know that! THIS was an Act of TERROR WROUGHT on ALL NEW YORKERS BY ZERO, HIMSELF!
