As many will remember, a respected Army Corps economist filed a whistleblower complaint about the Corps' use of faulty data to justify lock and dam expansion.
We are in a time when the Peace Corps mission is more vital than ever, and the organization is at a 30-year high in the number of volunteers in the field. The Peace Corps is currently in 69 posts and serving 75 countries across the globe.

A Member Of The Corps
He was small for a Marine,
The dying boy there in the bed.
Three times he'd fought off cancer
but now, inside his head,
a serious infection
would claim his life instead.
Cody Green was only twelve.
All his life he'd loved the Corps.
They made him a navigator,
The insignia he wore.
An honorary soldier
A marine in time of war.
The crises was upon him.
He would not win this fight
A fellow member of the Corps
Stood honor guard all night
There would be a flag draped coffin
for this member of the Corps.
Cody Green, a Young Marine
A Marine in time of war..

Each time I look at you is like the first time
Each time youre near me the thrill is new
And there is nothing that I wouldnt do for
The rare delight of the sight of you for
The more I see you, the more I want you
Somehow this feeling just grows and grows
With every sigh I become more mad about you
More lost without you and so it goes
Can you imagine how much I love you?
The more I see you as years go by
I know the only one for me can only be you
My arms wont free you, my heart wont try
I know the only one for me can only be you
My arms wont free you, my heart wont try

Grown-ups never understand anything for themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.

Au bord du quai
Et qu'importe d'où sont venus ceux qui s'en vont,
S'ils entendent toujours un cri profond
Au carrefour des doutes !
Mon corps est lourd, mon corps est las,
Je veux rester, je ne peux pas ;
L'âpre univers est un tissu de routes
Tramé de vent et de lumière ;
Mieux vaut partir, sans aboutir,
Que de s'asseoir, même vainqueur, le soir,
Devant son oeuvre coutumière,
Avec, en son coeur morne, une vie
Qui cesse de bondir au-delà de la vie.

And indeed this theme has been at the centre of all my research since 1943, both because of its intrinsic fascination and my conviction that a knowledge of sequences could contribute much to our understanding of living matter.

T'aime Ma Maman
t'aime ma maman
il reste au repos
votre corps, je donne de la terre pour garder
rivières et le vert,
sol autour de vous l'aimez pour refermer reste
Maman de votre corps que je donne à leur
pour nourrir le vert de leur donner des fruits
vous escalader la roche de sable autour de vous
de la beauté qu'ils détiennent.
les rivières et le sang maintenez la touche verte ton
le sol est mon corps que je donne à leur
Je t'aime maman
tu m'as fait apprendre à aimer les arbres verts autour
et je tiens à embrasser toutes les fentes et les fissures de cette terre de beauté
Je tiens à toucher la terre le corps de vous
Je suis dans l'amour
que le sol où vous prendre du repos à la terre mère
et donne des fruits et de la vie de cet homme ridicule
Il en sera de mon amour, et les jours de marcher seul
repose en paix Maman
