@@@@@It was quick and silent
“Who’s left?”
“ @@@@@It was quick and silent “Who’s left?” “ ’Serrat’s chief of narcotics, of course, and two others—” Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 172 “Describe them!” “I could not see clearly, but one I think was another black man, tall and without much hairThe third I could not see at all, for he—or she—was wearing strange clothes, with cloth over the head like a woman’s sun hat or insect veil “A woman?” “It is possible, sir? They’ve got to get out of there—he’s got to get out of there!” “Very soon they will run to this path and race down to the beach, where they will hide in the woods of the cove until a boat comes for themThey cannot go back to the inn, for strangers are seen instantly, and even though we are far away and the steel band is loud, the explosion was certainly heard by the guards posted outside “Listen to me,” said Bourne, his voice hoarse, tense“One of those three people is the man I want, and I want him for myself! So hold your fire because I’ll know him when I see himI don’t give a damn about the others; they can be flushed out of that cove later There was a sudden burst of gunfire from the tropical forest accompanied by screams from the once floodlit corridor beyond the ruins of the chapelThen one after another the figures raced out of the tangled brush into the pathThe first to be caught was the blond-haired police officer from Montserrat, the waist-high invisible fishing line tripping him as he fell into the dirt, breaking the thin, taut stringThe second man, slender, tall, dark-featured, with only a fringe of hair on his bald head, was hard upon the first, pulling him to his feet, sight or instinct making the second killer wield his automatic weapon in slashing arcs, cutting the impeding lines across the path to the ledge that led down to the beachThe third figure appearedIt was a man, in the robes of a monkThe Jackal! Bourne rose to his feet and stumbled out of the brush into the path, the Uzi in his hands; the victory was his, his freedom his, his family his! As the robed figure reached the top of the primitive rock-hewn staircase, Jason pressed his trigger finger, holding it in place, the fusillade of bullets exploding out of the automatic weapon The monk arched in silhouette, then fell, his body tumbling, rolling, sprawling down the steps carved out of volcanic rock, finally lurching over the edge and plummeting to the sand below Bourne raced down the awkward, irregular stone staircase, the two commandos behind himHe reached the beach, raced over to the corpse, and pulled the drenched hood away from the faceIn horror, he looked at the black features of Samuel, the brother priest of Tranquility Isle, the Judas who had sold his soul to the Jackal for thirty pieces of silver Suddenly, in the distance, there was the roar of powerful dual engines as a huge speedboat lurched out of a shadowed section of the cove and sped for a break in the reefsThe beam of a searchlight shot out, firing the barriers of rock protruding above the choppy black water, its wash illuminating the fluttering ensign of the government’s drug fleetThe Jackal was no chameleon, but he had changed! He had aged, grown thinner and bald—he was not the sharp, broad, full-headed muscular image of Jason’s memoryOnly the indistinct dark Latin features remained, the face and the unfamiliar expanse of bare skin above burned by the sunHe was gone! The boat’s motors screamed in unison as the craft breached a precarious opening in the reef and burst out into open wa | | Sunday, January 2nd, 2011 | | 3:02 am |
@@@@@The
pressure is my right arm first pushing @@@@@The pressure is my right arm first pushing against my side, then spreading, then splitting openBlood douses my lap like a bucket of hot water and I hear something breakingIt sounds like chickenbones under a bootheel I held Gandalf against me and thought Bring the friend, sit in the friend, sit in the fucking PAL, you dump bitch! And now I'm sitting in the chum, sitting in the fucking pal, it's at home but home doesn't feel like home with all the clocks of Europe ringing inside my cracked head and I can't remember the name of the doll Kamen gave me, all I can remember 48 is boy names: Randall, Russell, Rudolph, Riverfucking- PhoenixI tell her to leave me alone when she comes in with the fruit and the fucking college cheese, I tell her I need five minutesI can do this, I say, because it's the phrase Kamen gave me, it's the out, it's the meep-meep-meep that says watch it, Pammy, Edgar's backing upBut instead of leaving she takes the napkin from the tray to wipe the fret off my forehead and while she's doing that I grab her by the throat because in that moment it seems to me it's her fault I can't remember my doll's name, everything is her fault, including LINK-BELTI grab her with my good left handFor a few seconds I want to kill her, and who knows, maybe I tryWhat I do know is I'd rather remember all the accidents in this round world than the look in her eyes as she struggles in my gripThen I think It was RED! and let her go I held Gandalf against my chest as I had once held my infant daughters and thought, I can do thisI felt Gandalf's blood soak through my pants like hot water and thought, Go on, you sad fuck, get out of Dodge 49 I held Gandalf and thought of how it felt to be crushed alive as the cab of your truck eats the air around you and the breath leaves your body and the blood blows out of your nose and those snapping sounds as consciousness flees, those are the bones breaking inside your own body: your ribs, your arm, your hip, your leg, your cheek, your fucking skull I held Monica's dog and thought, in a kind of miserable triumph: It was RED! For a moment I was in a darkness shot with that red; then I opened my eyesI was clutching Gandalf to my chest with my left arm, and his eyes were staring up at my face - No, past itFreemantle?" It was John Hastings, the old guy who lived two houses up from the Goldsteins In his English tweed cap and sleeveless sweater, he looked ready for a hike on the Scottish moors Except, that was, for the expression of dismay on his face"Edgar? You can let him go now "Yes," I said, relaxing my grip on Gandalf"Would you help me get up?" 50 "I'm not sure I can," John said"I'd be more apt to pull us both down "Then go in and see if the Goldsteins are okay," I said "It is her dog," he sa | | Saturday, January 1st, 2011 | | 3:02 am |

The net result: I still have the old way I @@@@@ The net result: I still have the old way I used to think, and I have Peter's way of looking at the same problem or situationI have two thoughts instead of one One more way to analyze a problem or trend, and that is pricelessToday, I often say, "How would Peter Lynch do this, or Donald Trump or Warren Buffett or George Soros?" The only way I can access their vast mental power is to be humble enough to read or listen to what they have to sayArrogant or critical people are often people with low self-esteem who are afraid of taking risksYou see, if you learn something new, you are then required to make mistakes in order to fully understand what you have learned If you have read this far, arrogance is not one of your problemsArrogant people rarely read or buy tapesWhy should they? They are the center of the universe There are so many "intelligent" people who argue or defend when a new idea clashes with the way they thinkIn this case, their so-called "intelligence" combined with "arrogance" equals "ignorance"Each of us knows people who are highly educated, or believe they are smart, but their balance sheet paints a different pictureA truly intelligent person welcomes new ideas, for new ideas can add to the synergy of other accumulated ideasListening is more important than talkingIf that was not true, God would not have given us two ears and only one mouthToo many people think with their mouth instead of listening to absorb new ideas and possibilitiesThey argue instead of asking questions I take a long view on my wealthI do not subscribe to the "Get rich quick" mentality most lottery players or casino gamblers haveI may go in and out of stocks, but I am long on educationIf you want to fly an airplane, I advise taking lessons firstI am always shocked at people who buy stocks or real estate, but never invest in their greatest asset, their mindJust because you bought a house or two does not make you an expert at real estateCHOOSE FRIENDS CAREFULLY: The power of associationFirst of all, I do not choose my friends by their financial stateme | | Saturday, December 18th, 2010 | | 3:02 am |

THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 434 Where the blow came from, Jason at first did not know; he only knew that the left side of his skull seemed suddenly split in twoThen he realized that he had done it to himself! He had slipped on the blood-covered gravel, and had crashed into the metal grille of the vanIt did not matter— nothing mattered! Carlos the Jackal was racing away! With the rampant confusion everywhere, there were a hundred ways he could get out of NovgorodIt had all been for nothing! Still, there was his last grenadeWhy not? Bourne removed it, pulled the chanel logo earrings pin, and threw it over the van into the center of the parking areaThe explosion followed and Jason got to his feet; perhaps the grenade would tell Benjamin something, warn him to keep his eyes on the area Staggering and barely able to walk, Jason started for the break in the fence that led to the guardhouse and the tunnel Oh, God, Marie, I failed! I’m so sorryNothing! It was for nothing! And then, as if all Novgorod were having a final laugh at his expense, he saw that someone had opened the iron gates to the tunnel, giving the Jackal his invitation to freedom?” Benjamin’s astonished voice floated over the sounds of the hermes bag river, followed by the sight of the young Soviet running out of the guardhouse toward Bourne“Christ almighty, I thought you were dead!” “So you opened the gates and let my executioner walk away,” yelled Jason weakly“Why didn’t you send a limousine for him?” “I suggest you look again, Professor,” replied a breathless Benjamin as he stopped in front of Bourne, studying Jason’s battered face and bloodstained clothing“Old age has withered your eyesight “What?” “You want gates, you’ll have gates The trainer shouted an order toward the guardhouse in RussianSeconds later the huge iron gates descended, covering the mouth of the mulberry bag tun | | Friday, December 10th, 2010 | | 3:01 am |

He nodded, then pointed to the sunIn @@@@@ He nodded, then pointed to the sunIn another moment or two, it would touch the horizon, and the track of light beating across to us, now yellow, would deepen to pure gold"But dark is when the bad things come out to playWhere is the china Perse now? Any idea where it ended up after all this on the beach?" "I don't know exactly what happened after Eastlake killed Nan Melda, but I've got the general gist"She'd shot her bolt, at least for awhileHer father must've heard her screaming, and that's probably the only thing that could still bring him aroundHe must have remembered that, no matter how awful things were, he still had a live daughter at Heron's RoostHe might even have remembered that he had two more thirty or forty miles awayWhich left him with a mess to clean up Jack pointed silently at the horizon, where the sun was now touching 1048 "I know, Jack, but we're closer than you think I shuffled the last sheet of paper to the top of the pileIt was the barest of sketches, but there was no mistaking that knowing smileIt was Charley the Lawn JockeyI got to my feet and turned them away from the Gulf and the waiting ship, which was now silhouetted, black against gold"Do you see it?"

@@@@@Here he was again on the same ground where @@@@@Here he was again on the same ground where all had passed before, and apparently as willing to stay and be happy without the Miss Bertrams, as if he had never known Mansfield in any other stateShe heard them spoken of by him only in a general way, till they were all re-assembled in the drawing-room, when Edmund, being engaged apart in some matter of business with DrGrant, which seemed entirely to engross them, and MrsGrant occupied at the tea-table, he began talking of them with more particularity to his other sisterWith a significant smile, which made Fanny quite hate him, he said, “So! Rushworth and his fair bride are at Brighton, I understand; happy man!” “Yes, they have been there about a fortnight, Miss Price, have they not? And Julia is with themYates, I presume, is not far offYates! Oh! we hear nothing of MrI do not imagine he figures much in the letters to Mansfield Park; do you, Miss Price? I think my friend Julia knows better than to entertain her father with Mr “Poor Rushworth and his two-and-forty speeches!” continued Crawford“Nobody can ever forget themPoor fellow! I see him now—his toil and his despairWell, I am much mistaken if his lovely Maria will ever want him to make two-and-forty speeches to her”; adding, with a momentary seriousness, “She is too good for him— much too good And then changing his tone again to one of gentle 195 Jane Austen gallantry, and addressing Fanny, he said, “You were MrRushworth’s best friendYour kindness and patience can never be forgotten, your indefatigable patience in trying to make it possible for him to learn his part—in trying to give him a brain which nature had denied— to mix up an understanding for him out of the superfluity of your own! He might not have sense enough himself to estimate your kindness, but I may venture to say that it had honour from all the rest of the party Fanny coloured, and said nothing “It is as a dream, a pleasant dream!” he exclaimed, breaking forth again, after a few minutes’ musing“I shall always look back on our theatricals with exquisite pleasureThere was such an interest, such an animation, such a spirit diffusedThere was employment, hope, solicitude, bustle, for every hour of the dayAlways some little objection, some little doubt, some little anxiety to be got over With silent indignation Fanny repeated to herself, “Never happier!— never happier than when doing what you must know was not justifiable!—never happier than when behaving so dishonourably and unfeelingly! Oh! what a corrupted mind!” “We were unlucky, Miss Price,” he continued, in a lower tone, to avoid the possibility of being heard by Edmund, and not at all aware of her feelings, “we certainly were very unluckyAnother week, only one other week, would have been enough for usI think if we had had the disposal of events—if Mansfield Park had had the government of the winds just for a week or two, about the equinox, there would have been a differenceNot that we would have endangered his safety by any tremendous weather—but only by a steady contrary wind, or a | | Monday, December 6th, 2010 | | 3:06 am |
@@@@@It had been a botch, and Hearn was @@@@@It had been a botch, and Hearn was dead Well, one could not really call it a shockStill, for a little while, Hearn had been the only man in the division who was capable of understanding his more ambitious plans, capable even of understanding himBut Hearn had not been big enoughHe had looked, become frightened, and crawled away, throwing mud He knew why he had punished him, he knew it was not accidental that he had assigned Hearn to reconAnd his end had not been unforeseenCummings had extracted at first a fragile grain of pleasure from itfor an instant when he first heard the news of Hearn's death, it had hurt him, wrenched his heart with a cruel fistHe had almost grieved for Hearn, and then it had been covered over by something else, something more complexFor days whenever Cummings thought of the Lieutenant he would feel a mingled pain and satisfaction In the end the important thing was always to tot up your profit and lossThe campaign had taken a week more than had been allowed for it, and that was not going to count too effectively for himBut there had been a time only a week or two ago when he would have settled for an extra monthBesides, as far as Army was concerned, the campaign had been won by the side invasion of BotoiThat would be undeniably in his favorAltogether, he had not been either fundamentally hurt or benefited by AnopopeiWhen the Philippines came up he would have the entire division to employ and a chance to achieve some more striking resultsBut before that the men would have to be shaken up, given vigorous training, and their discipline would have to be improvedHe had again the same anger he had felt in the last month of the Anopopei campaignThe men resisted him, resisted change, with maddening inertiaNo matter how you pushed them, they always gave ground sullenly, regrouped once the pressure was offYou could work on them, you could trick them, but there were times now when he doubted basically whether he could change them, really mold themAnd it might be the same thing again in the PhilippinesWith all his enemies at Army, he did not have much chance of gaining an added star before the Philippines, and with that would go all chance of an Army command before the war ended | | Saturday, December 4th, 2010 | | 3:02 am |
