"The man's pig-iron," said he. "I punched him plenty hard enough,
and it didn't seem to jar him."
The gallery at one end the running track had by flow half filled
with interested spectators.
"Time!" called Gerald for round two.
This time Murphy went in more viciously, aiming and measuring his

The second excerpt represents the present or the deciding factor of the moment, and is drawn from A Kidnapped Santa Claus by L. Frank Baum: Repentance, almost regretfully; "but that cannot be helped now. Their

"So I understand," said Santa Claus. "Those who avoid evil need never

The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from U. S. Project Trinity Report by Carl Maag and Steve Rohrer: Subject: Project TRINITY
Project TRINITY, conducted by the Manhattan Engineer District (MED),
was designed to test and assess the effects of a nuclear weapon. The
TRINITY nuclear device was detonated on a 100-foot tower on the
Alamogordo Bombing Range in south-central New Mexico at 0530 hours on
16 July 1945. The nuclear yield of the detonation was equivalent to
the energy released by detonating 19 kilotons of TNT. At shot-time,
the temperature was 21.8 degrees Celsius, and surface air pressure was
850 millibars. The winds were nearly calm at the surface; at 10,300
feet above mean sea level, they were from the southwest at 10 knots.
The winds blew the cloud resulting from the detonation to the
