Nellie Lost & Found

[Verse 1]Ten o\u27clock! the rain begins to fall,And Nellie still from home!Vainly now, her loving name we call,Oh whither does she roam?Can it be she wanders from the street,Thro\u27 the wood to find her onely way,Bless the child!I fear her little feet Have carried her astray. [Chorus]Wake the boys to search for \u27Nellie!Stay not for the dawn;Who shall sleep when from the mother\u27s foldOne little lamb is gone! [Verse 2]Eleven o\u27clock! the little brothers wait,Still hoping her return;Peeping through the lattice of the gate,Their darling to discern.Weary now they turn them to the door,While their tears, for lips that not are dumb,Ask the question often asked before,Oh mother, will she come? [Chorus] [Verse 3]Twelve o\u27clock! and in the forest wild,What terrors the hour!Who can tell what foes surround the child ,Or shield her from their power?Storms to face and torrents to be cross\u27d,Beasts of prey that in the darkness roam;Would to God that only I were lost, And Nellie safe at home! [Chorus] [Verse 4]One o\u27clock! me thinks I hear a voice,With tidings in its tone!Does it bid this trembling heart rejoice,Or sorrow makes it known?Still I hear that midnight echo stirr\u27d,Surely too, it bears a joyful sound;Praise the Lord! a mother\u27s prayer is heard,The darling one is found! [Chorus for last verse]Thro\u27 the wood the midnight echoes Bear a joyful sound;Praise the Lord! a mother\u27s prayer is heard,The darling one is found

Babylon Is Fallen

1. Don\u27t you see de black clouds Risin\u27 ober yonder Whar de Massa\u27s ole plantation am? Nebber you be frightened Dem is only darkeys, Come to jine an\u27 fight for Uncle Sam. Chorus: Look out dar, now! We\u27s a gwine to shoot! Look out dar - don\u27t you understand? Babylon is fallen! Babylon is fallen! And we\u27s a gwine to occupy de land. 2. Don\u27t you see de lightnin\u27 Flashin\u27 in de canebrake Like as if we gwine to hab a storm? No! you is mistaken \u27Tis de darkey\u27s bay\u27nets, An\u27 de buttons on dar uniform. 3. Way up in de cornfield, Whar you hear de tunder Dat is our ole forty-pounder gun When de shells are missin\u27, Den we load wid punkins All de same to make de cowards run. 4. Massa was de Kernel In de rebel army, Ebber sence we went an\u27 run away; But his lubley darkeys, Dey has been a watchin\u27 An\u27 dey take him pris\u27ner tudder day. 5. We will be de massa, He will be de servant - Try him how he like it for a spell; So we crack de Butt\u27nutts. So we take de Kernel, So de cannon carry back de shell

Marching Through Georgia

[Verse 1] Bring the good old bugle, boys! We’ll sing another song Sing it with a spirit that will start the world along Sing it as we used to sing it, fifty thousand strong, While we were marching through Georgia. [Chorus] “Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee! Hurrah! Hurah! The flag that makes you free!”So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea, While we were marching through Georgia. [Verse 2] How the darkeys shouted when they heard the joyful soung! How the turkeys gobbled which our commissary found! How the sweet potatoes even started from the ground, While we were marching through Georgia. [Chorus] [Verse 3] Yes, and there were union men who wept with joyful tears, When they saw the honor’d flag they had not seen for years; Hardly could they be restrained from breaking forth in cheers, While we were marching through Georgia. [Chorus] [Verse 4] “Sherman’s dashing Yankee boys will never reach the coast!” So the saucy rebels said, and ‘twas a handsome boast, Had they not forgot, alas! To reckon with the host, While we were marching through Georgia. [Chorus] [Verse 5] So we made a thoroughfare for Freedom and her train, Sixty miles in latitude three hundred to the main; Treason fied before us, for resistance was in vain, While we were marching through Georgia. [Chorus

What are the experiences of adults returning to work following recovery from Guillain-Barré syndrome? An interpretative phenomenological analysis

This is the author's accepted manuscript. The final published article is available from the link below. Copyright @ 2009 Informa UK Ltd.Purpose. Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a transient inflammatory disorder affecting peripheral nerves, characterised by weakness and numbness in limbs, upper body and face. Residual problems affect a large minority, and complicate return to work. This qualitative study explored the experiences of people who returned to work following their diagnosis of GBS and recovery, to gain insight into factors that facilitated or inhibited this process. Method. Five people participated in in-depth interviews. Individual and common experiences were explored through interpretative phenomenological analysis. Findings. Three recurring themes are presented: the perceived value of work; losing and recovering a familiar identity at work; and dilemmas around using support and adaptations at work. Certain individual issues also emerged but are beyond the scope of this article. Participants tended to measure their recovery in terms of returning to work yet continued to experience certain physical and psychosocial difficulties at work related to GBS, which required active coping strategies. Limited public awareness of GBS was perceived as a hindrance when returning to work. Conclusion. This study provides a rich account of the experiences that people encounter returning to work following GBS. Rehabilitation specialists may offer more effective preparation for this process, drawing upon the issues identified

Microbial ecology of coral-dominated reefs in the Federated States of Micronesia

Aquatic Microbial Ecology, 86, (2021): 115–136, https://doi.org/10.3354/ame01961.Microorganisms are central to the functioning of coral reef ecosystems, but their dynamics are unstudied on most reefs. We examined the microbial ecology of shallow reefs within the Federated States of Micronesia. We surveyed 20 reefs surrounding 7 islands and atolls (Yap, Woleai, Olimarao, Kosrae, Kapingamarangi, Nukuoro, and Pohnpei), spanning 875053 km2. On the reefs, we found consistently higher coral coverage (mean ± SD = 36.9 ± 22.2%; max 77%) compared to macroalgae coverage (15.2 ± 15.5%; max 58%), and low abundances of fish. Reef waters had low inorganic nutrient concentrations and were dominated by Synechococcus, Prochlorococcus, and SAR11 bacteria. The richness of bacterial and archaeal communities was significantly related to interactions between island/atoll and depth. High coral coverage on reefs was linked to higher relative abundances of Flavobacteriaceae, Leisingera, Owenweeksia, Vibrio, and the OM27 clade, as well as other heterotrophic bacterial groups, consistent with communities residing in waters near corals and within coral mucus. Microbial community structure at reef depth was significantly correlated with geographic distance, suggesting that island biogeography influences reef microbial communities. Reefs at Kosrae Island, which hosted the highest coral abundance and diversity, were unique compared to other locations; seawater from Kosrae reefs had the lowest organic carbon (59.8-67.9 µM), highest organic nitrogen (4.5-5.3 µM), and harbored consistent microbial communities (>85% similar), which were dominated by heterotrophic cells. This study suggests that the reef-water microbial ecology on Micronesian reefs is influenced by the density and diversity of corals as well as other biogeographical features.Samples were collected under Federated States of Micronesia collection permits FM12-11-03S and FM12-11-05S.

Vitamin D, and Kidney Disease

Mineral metabolism abnormalities, such as low 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D) and elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH), are common at even higher glomerular filtration rate than previously described. Levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) show an inverse correlation with those of intact PTH and phosphorus. Studies of the general population found much higher all-cause and cardiovascular (CV) mortality for patients with lower levels of vitamin D; this finding suggests that low 25(OH)D level is a risk factor and predictive of CV events in patients without chronic kidney disease (CKD). 25(OH)D/1,25(OH)2D becomes deficient with progression of CKD. Additionally, studies of dialysis patients have found an association of vitamin D deficiency with increased mortality. Restoration of the physiology of vitamin D receptor activation should be essential therapy for CKD patients
