The brawling of a sparrow in the eaves
The brilliant moon and all the milky sky,
And all that famous harmony of leaves,
Had blotted out man's image and his cry.

A girl arose that had red mournful lips
And seemed the greatness of the world in tears,
Doomed like Odysseus and the laboring ships
And proud as Priam murdered with his peers,

Arose, and on the instant clamorous eaves,
A climbing moon upon an empty sky,
And all that lamentation leaves,
Could but compose man's image and his cry.

…You don't have to point out everything that's bad. So there's a broken mirror on my bed, I'll clean it up, so what? You don't have to be such an .. all the time…*

…are the lyrics in my head.

Bringing up the memories Long buried under the bed.

Oh smalls I beg you, Please don’t end up Pretty young and dead.

I see tonight you’re dressed up to the nines.

Too bad everyone knows There’s no truth behind your little white lies.

Your life’s not even your own design Because it’s ruled by

Wait don’t roll your eyes Yes I’ve seen you use The toilet for lines.

Began as a pet game We all lost control. Forgive me,

I helped you Shaped the monster you became You’re a beauty queen

It’s such a shame.

*lyrics from The Virgins " Rich Girls "

Something isn't right,
I can feel it again, feel it again.
This isn't the first time,
That you left me waiting.
Sad excuses and false hopes high,
I saw this coming, still I don't know why,
I let you in.

I knew it all along,
You're so predictable.
I knew something would go wrong... (Something's always wrong...)
So you don't have to call,
Or say anything at all.
You're so predictable... (So predictable...)

So take your empty words,
Your broken promises.
And all the time you stole,
Cause I am done with this.
I could give it away, give it away,
I'm doing everything I should've.
And now I'm making a change,
I'm living the day.
I'm giving back what you gave me.
I don't need anything.

I knew it all along,
You're so predictable.
I knew something would go wrong... (Something's always wrong...)
So you don't have to call,
Or say anything at all.
You're so predictable... (So predictable...)

Now everywhere I go,
Everyone I meet,
Every time I try to fall in love,
They all want to know why I'm so broken.
Why am I so cold?
Why I'm so hard inside.
Why am I scared?
What am I afraid of?
I don't even know, this story's never had an end.
I've been waiting,
I've been searching,
I've been hoping,
I've been dreaming you would come back,
But I know the ending of this story.
You're never coming back,
Never... Never... Never (echo)

I knew it all along,
You're so predictable.
I knew something would go wrong... (Something's always wrong...)
So you don't have to call,
Or say anything at all.
You're so predictable... (So predictable...)

Everywhere I go for the rest of my life,
Everyone I love, (So predictable)
Everyone I care about,
They're all gonna want
to know what's wrong with me And I know what it is...(So predictable)
I'm ending this right now

Girls
are like
apples on trees.
The best ones are
at the top of the tree.The
boys don't want to reach
for the good ones because they
are afraid of falling and getting hurt.
Instead, they just get the rotten apples
from the ground that aren't as good,
but easy. So the apples at the top think
something is wrong with them, when in
reality, they're amazing. They just
have to wait for the right boy to
come along, the one who's
brave enough to
climb all
the way
to the top
of the tree.

If you are thinking of visiting the World Heritage Sites, then Acropolis, Athens, Greece is the right place to start with. Located in the ancient, beautiful city of Athens in Greece, the Acropolis attracts large number of tourists every year. Acropolis, Athens, Greece is a perfect building built by the world’s most advanced civilization.

The Acropolis is the one historical site that you can't miss to explore. You can take a tour or wander up there yourself. Getting to the Acropolis in Athens is quite easy and more pleasant than ever because of the presence of large avenues, which borders the south and west of the site. For the convenience of the travelers, many cafes and restaurants have been opened alongside the streets of Acropolis.

You will find several steps to climb up to the Acropolis in Athens. The Propylaea was completed in 432 just before the outbreak of the Peloponnesian wars. The main architect for building the site was Mnesicles, a colleague of Phidias. There also exists a tiny temple to Nike Athena or the Athena of Victory, which commemorates the Athenians victory over the Persians.

This small temple stands on a platform that overlooks the islands of the Saronic Gulf and was used to house a statue of Athena. After it was dismantled by the Turks, it was again rebuilt between 1836 and 1842. The Parthenon and other main buildings on the Acropolis, Athens, Greece were built by Pericles in the 5th century BC, as a monument to the cultural and political achievements of the natives of Athens.

The term ' America ' , for the lands of the western hemisphere, is believed to have been coined in 1507 after Amerigo Vespucci, an Italian explorer and cartographer. The full name of the country was first used officially in the Declaration of Independence, which was the "unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America" adopted by the "Representatives of the united States of America" on July 4, 1776. The current name was finalized on November 15, 1777, when the Second Continental Congress adopted the Articles of Confederation, the first of which states, "The Stile of this Confederacy shall be 'The United States of America.'" The short form United States is also standard. Other common forms include the U.S., the USA, and America. Colloquial names include the U.S. of A. and the States. Columbia, a once popular name for the Americas and the United States, was derived from Christopher Columbus. It appears in the name "District of Columbia".

The standard way to refer to a citizen of the United States is as an American. Though United States is the formal adjective, American and U.S. are the most common adjectives used to refer to the country ("American values," "U.S. forces"). American is rarely used in English to refer to people not connected to the United States.

The phrase "the United States" was originally treated as plural—e.g, "the United States are"—including in the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution, ratified in 1865. It became common to treat it as singular—e.g., "the United States is"—after the end of the Civil War. The singular form is now standard; the plural form is retained in the idiom "these United States."

" Bhutan "may be derived from the Sanskrit word Bhu-Utthan (highlands). In another theory of Sanskritisation, Bhots-ant means "At the End of Tibet", as Bhutan is immediately to Tibet's south.

Historically Bhutan was known by many names, such as Lho Mon (southern land of darkness), Lho Tsendenjong (southern land of the Tsendencypress), Lhomen KhazhiLho Men Jong (southern land of (southern land of four approaches) and medicinal herbs).


The ' Kingdom of Bhutan ' is a landlocked nation in South Asia. It is located amid the eastern end of the Himalaya Mountains and is bordered to the south, east and west by India and to the north by China. Bhutan is separated from Nepal by the Indian state of Sikkim. The Bhutanese call their country , Druk Yul (land of the thunder dragon).

Among the USA Cultural Sites, mention can be made of the Independence Hall, Pennsylvania. Also called the Construction of the Pennsylvania State House, the Hall was established in 1732. Independence Hall in Pennsylvania was the most ambitious public building in 13 colonies. The Independence Hall has undergone many restorations, notably by the Greek revival architect John Haviland in 1830, and by a committee from the National Park Service in 1950.

Independence Hall in Pennsylvania is the birthplace of USA. It was within its walls that the Declaration of Independence was adopted and signed. The Constitution of the United States was also debated, drafted and signed in this Hall. The Independence Hall is a US national landmark located inside the state of Philadelphia in Pennsylvania. In the Independence Hall in Pennsylvania, the 2nd meeting place of the Second Continental Congress took place.

The Statue of Liberty, New York, known as the Liberty Enlightening the World was presented to USA by the people of France in 1886. Standing on the Liberty Island in New York Harbor, Statue of Liberty welcomes visitors and Native Americans to come and see this statue. The statue is made up of copper and was erected to commemorate the centennial of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence.

The Statue of Liberty symbolizes a robed woman holding a torch, and is made of a sheeting of pure copper that hung on a framework of steel with the exception of the flame of the torch. The statue stands atop a rectangular stonework pedestal with a foundation in the shape of an irregular 11 pointed star. The Statue of Liberty is one of the most recognizable icons not only in USA but in all over the world.

Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake

After three years together Cameron, 36, and her toy boy Justin Timberlake, 26, announced their split in January. Both Cameron and Justin received libel payments from British tabloids alleging separate affairs before they broke up, but in their public statement they said that they had split ‘mutually and as friends, with continued love and respect'. Justin got together with Jessica Biel in May, but suffered embarrassment when it came out that he'd given her the same gift he'd once given Cameron - a surfboard and a year's worth of Sex Wax! --------------

Kylie Minogue and Olivier Martinez

How sad were we when we found out these two had split back in February? Together for four years, smouldering hunk Olivier was Kylie's rock during her very public battle against breast cancer, and she described him as ‘the most honourable man I have ever met'. They seemed so perfect for each other... boo hoo! -------------

Chantelle and Preston

Stop the press! What a shocker! Chantelle and Preston split! Who would have thought a relationship spawned from within the Big Brother house wouldn't last the distance? Or even last a year? And after Preston walked out of the Never Mind The Buzzcocks to defend Chantelle's honour. Some things in life just don't make any sense. -----------

Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson

Funnyman Owen met then married Kate on the set of the so-so comedy You, Me and Dupree in 2005 and tongues were already wagging about the couple when Kate split with her rock star husband Chris Robinson in August 2006.

Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams

According to Jake Gyllenhaal Heath and Michelle got together in rehearsals for gay cowboy classic Brokeback Mountain, "the two of them had googly eyes with each other." The couple had a daughter Mathilda together in October 2005 but the googly eyes had disappeared by September when the couple split "quietly and amicably." --------------

Drew Barrymoore and Fabrizio Moretti

ET star Drew and Strokes drummer Fabrizio called it quits after five years together back in Jan. A source close to the pair said the split was because Moretti "doesn't get her friends" and that he hated "the Hollywood stuff". Fair enough. Drew's now hooked up with Dodgeball star Justin Long. ------------------

Marilyn Manson and Dita Von Teese

It hasn't taken long for Marilyn Mason to recover from his January break up from Dita Von Teese, he's now holed up with almost half his age Rachel Evan Wood.

Cerys Matthews and Marc Bannerman

Coming soon - Celebs haven't just been breaking up left, right and centre you know. Check back on handbag.com to see some of this year's big A list get togethers. --------------------

Kate Moss and Pete Doherty

On off, off on - this pair has split more times than we've had hot dinners. After a weekend of shouting in July, 33-year-old Kate finally threw the 28-year-old out of her home after reports he was unfaithful. The pair didn't waste time alone: Kate hooked up with The Kills guitarist Jamie Ince at the end of September, days later Pete's then girlfriend Irina Lazareanu announced they were engaged. Which must have irked Kate: she hand-picked model Irina to appear in issue of Vogue Paris she guest edited. -----------
