Sea Fever

by John Masefield


I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,

And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,

And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,

And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.


I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide

Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;

And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,

And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.


I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life.

To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;

And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,

And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

Battle Cards is one of my favorite games, and it's really easy to play. First, two
players divide an entire deck of cards so that each has 26 cards. Next, both
players pull three cards off the tops of their decks, revealing the third card. The
winner of the round is the player with the higher card. (Aces are high.) Players
continue counting three cards and then revealing the last card until one player
has all the cards in his or her deck and is declared the winner. It's that simple.
Now, who wants to play

The Leaning Tower of Pisa is a famous building in Italy. The Tower is famous because it tilts to one side. The tower began to tilt during its construction in the 1200’s. In the following decades, the tilt only got worse. The builders of the tower came up with different ideas to explain this. In the end, they surmised that the ground the tower sat on was too soft. And they did things to try to correct this. For example, they built upper floors with one side taller than the other. (Because of this, the tower is actually curved.) Although tilted, the tower still exists today. In fact, it is a major tourist attraction. Modern builders have done things to make sure the tower continues to lean, but does not fall down. Their efforts have been successful. Between 1990 and 2001, the tower leaned at an angle of 5.5 degrees. But the tower now leans at about 3.99 degrees. In 2008, construction workers performed more work on the tower. They removed 77 tons of ground to try to make the tower more level. They say the tower will now be stable for the next 200 years
