I'll be damned. (This was written at 3:46 AM on May 29) I created this when I was really into HTML and really into stick death. I then abandoned my hobby for doing absolutely nothing in my spare time. Since then, two years ago, my little hobby has amassed over 100,000 total hits. So I've decided to take it back up. Go ahead and view the animations I have here, some of them are good, but check back every now and then please...I've decided to FINALLY update and I will do a full overhaul of the site. The update will come in less than week (Or whenever I do a good animation) but the overhaul may take a while. I'll try to do some things in flash (I've gotten extremely rusty). Please bookmark and check back! These are my animations. Many more to come.

Books Books provided by N HPCO The Tragic Losses from Hurricane Katrina Hurricane Victims Need Your Help Today, click here for ways to help There is much grief and loss after Hurricane Katrina. In watching this deviation unfold we realize that we are all neighbors and part of a bigger community. We learned after 9-11 and we are seeing it again after Hurricane Katrina that people they have more resiliency and strength than they realized. Some tips: Children need words. Tell them what you are feeling, what you think about the situation. Then, encourage them to talk about what they think. Their questions will let you know how the disaster has affected them and what fears they may have. Talk about your home safety plan for a tornado, earthquake, snowstorm or fire talk about disasters, answer any questions they may have about race, being poor, floods. It is important to validate their feelings and clear up any misunderstanding and misinformation they have. Recognize that intense emotional responses often have physical manifestations, for example headaches and fatigue may be common. Let others tell their story of how they were affected. Offer a compassionate ear to friends and coworkers who may need to share their feelings.

40. Backcountry Death Ways Recounts how beliefs about death and dying brought by colonists from the Northern British Borderlands survive in the Chesapeake region and North Carolina. http://xroads.virginia.edu/~UG97/albion/adeath.html

Backcountry Death Ways:The Border Idea of Nescient Fatalism In the borderlands of North Britain, death had long been the constant companion of life. Warfare and raiding took a heavy toll of the population on both sides of the border. Communities shattered by violence also suffered much from famine, and their weakened inhabitants became easy prey for epidemic disease. This pattern changed during the eighteenth century, when the toll of epidemics diminished, and the worst excesses of violence were also suppressed. But life remained precarious upon the borders, and death was still its dark companion. The American backcountry, for all its romantic reputation as a "bloody ground," was healthier than the British borderlands had been. Rates of morbidity were higher in the southern highlands than in the northern colonies largely as a consequence of the malaria which the colonists themselves introduced, and later of other environmental illnesses such as the "milk sick." But rates of mortality were lower than in the Chesapeake country, and below those of North Britain as well. Even so, there were dangers enough in the formative years of this region. Settlers and Indians warred constantly upon one another. Bandit gangs roamed the wilderness, and many an unwary traveler disappeared without a trace. Regulators enforced order with vigilante violence as savage as the acts they condemned. Major wars broke out at least once in every generation from 1689 to 1865. These bloody events did not drive death rates as high in the backcountry as in the Chesapeake region, or other places in British America. But they created a climate of danger and uncertainty that kept old border customs alive. Attitudes toward death in the backcountry long remained very much the same as they had been in the borderlands....
