The verb "cringed" can be both transitive and intransitive, depending on its usage in a sentence. For example, "He cringed at the sight of the spider" is transitive because it has a direct object ("the sight of the spider"), while "He cringed in embarrassment" is intransitive because it does not have a direct object.

Because the cd6's are pieces of junk. My local Best Buy shop cringed when I told then that I was getting one. They said that they throw at least 2 of them away a week. Mine eats the CD's and I have had to take it apart to get the CD out. I wanted the convenience of loading 6 CD's up and hitting the road, but before vacation I have to come up with something else. I like the double din look and don't want to put in a conversion kit for a single din radio. I am very dissappointed in the cd6.

To kill Krayk you need to have the bow and arrow.

1st:

Krayk will become invisible for the first part of the battle. Krayk's Field of vision will be displayed on the top screen to attack him you need to shoot him with the arrow, so when krayk comes near you make sure your facing his way and shoot an arrow at him.

2nd:

After you shoot him he wil become visible and he will have purple blotches on his shell. Your aim is to hit those blotches. Krayk will spin around so you can hit them all. If you fail to hit all the blotches you will have to do step one again but the blotches that you destroyed will stay destoyed when you do step one again.

3rd:

Krayk's shell will disintegrate. Your aim is to hit Krayk anywhere and make him cringe. When he has cringed run over to his back and hit the blue spot on his tail. Repeat until he dies

Hope this helps :D

I waited for her to go to sleep. As she dreamt those beautiful dreams, I pressed my hands onto her lips. I held her nose together and waited the seconds needed, where she would be gasping for air. She slept. And slept. Until, " Happy Birthday Aunt Joe!" She cringed. "Oh my, you almost scared me to death."

The Movie was "Rituals",starring Hal Holbrook,Robin James,Lawrence Dane...etc,

set in the area of Batchewana to Wawa.

The Movie's script was written by Ian Sutherland,a playright from Sault Ste. Marie.

It's story line: 5 doctors re-unite in the wilderness, [who were part of a MASH Unit in the Korean war]were targeted by a "patient" who sought revenge on them for leaving him a hideous

and deranged monster.He picked them off....one by one,in grotesque and sadistic

ways.

Not a bad movie,but it's debut at the Algoma Theatre in Sault Ste. Marie shocked

the small town prudish audience,that cringed in the overuse of profanity and the "F"

word. It was filmed at a time when "coarse language" was not accepted in theatres

nor television.It was compared to Deliverance,in theatres about the same time.

The Vietnam War was responsible for a heavy strain on the financial resources of the US economy. Due to the war exigency, there was a negative imbalance in the industrial sector. Factories which were manufacturing consumer goods had to shift their onus towards catering to the demands of the military. A war never benefits anyone; this statement proved right to America too.

Due to excessive military spending and diversion of funds overseas, the dollar weakened. There was no equivalent amount of funds coming into the country. The country cringed under the strain of household social spending and subsidies on one side and military expenditure on the other. The government earned dissatisfaction from the general public as the interest rates rose and inflationary trends ballooned. The affluent lifestyle of the 60s which prevailed in the US began to erode because of the economic paralysis which laid the country forlorn in the 70s' Vietnam War.

That's a very good question. It may be possible that a funeral director has sold such a service to the bereaved family, using questionable reasoning tactics, such as ease for the family, ease for the mourners, a document of the day, etc.

More frightening is that the funeral director is charging the family a 'per head' price for an array of 'hosting' services at the funeral home. Some offer elaborate buffet services, including drink machines, tea and coffee makers, and copious sandwiches, hors d'oeuvres, canapés, pastries, etc. Your registering merely documents your condolence, I presume. However, some are worded in such a way that they serve as an electronic 'RSVP' (Répondez s'il vous plaît!) indicating your confirmation of coming to the service.

Current etiquette suggests that if a bereaved family has chosen this medium to communicate funeral details and are requesting that you reply via this medium, if possible, no matter how poor a taste you may consider it to be, follow along with the theme and forget about it. It could have simply come about as the result of a child or young person, desperate to do something for their loved one or family, coming up with the idea, in accordance with the bombardment of new ideas they see on the internet every day. The parents may have cringed a bit themselves, but so as not to embarrass or hurt the feelings of the suggester, simply allowed it to be done. Be thankful the register doesn't show the deceased in their coffin. There's one in Alabama who is doing that very thing, in conjunction with their 'drive-through' viewing service offered at their second funeral home, which was once a bank with drive through tellers!

Here is page 430 from Breaking Dawn.

"I think it will be easier for you to...see for yourself. It's rather difficult to describe."

I considered that. I knew there was a lot that I needed to see for myself before it would be real. I wasn't sure how much more I was ready for, so I changed the subject.

"Why is Jacob still here?" I asked. "How can he stand it? Why should he?" my ringing boice trembled a little. "Why should he have to suffer more?"

"Jacob isn't suffering," he said in a strange new tone. "Though I might be willing to change his condition," Edward added through his teeth. "Edward!" I hissed, yanking him to a stop (and feeling a little thrill of smugness that I was able to do it). "How can you say that?" Jacob has given up everything to protect us! What I've put him through-!" I cringed a the dim memory of shame and guilt. It seemed odd now that I had needed him so much then, That sense of absence without him near had vanished; it must have been a human weakness.

"You'll see exactly haw I can say that," Edward muttered. "I promised him that I would let him explain, but I doubt you'll it much differently than I do. Of course, I'm often wrong about your thoughts, aren't I?" He pursed his lips and eyed me.

"Explain what?" Edward shook his head. "I promised. Though I don't know if I really owe him anything at all anymore...." HIs teeth ground together.

"Edward, I don't understand." Frustration and indignation took over my head. He stroked my cheek and then smiled gently when my face smoothed out in respnse, desire momentarily overruling annoyance. "It's harder than you make it look, I know. I remember."

This dialouge was after Bella was changed into a Vampire and she went on her first Hunting trip.

Most species of Birds that occurred in Hawai'i were given names by the Ancient Hawaiians and some are still used today, with some modifications to reflect modern taxonomy. For example, 'amakihi is a traditional name but Kaua'i 'Amakihi is a modern construct. Below is a list of species with their English name (if they have one), Scientific name, Hawaiian name and in some cases what the Hawaiian name means. Most of these names were learned from native Hawaiian speakers by haole ornithologists during the 19th century, and some of them have been controversial for a variety of reasons. Munro reported the name Hoa for the Greater Koa-Finch, but other authors disputed the validity of that name and it was not widely adopted. Sometimes native speakers gave different names to the same bird, as in Apapane vs. Akakane. Wilson reported the name 'O'u-holowai for the bird we call the Akeke'e, but Perkins corrected it based on wider contact with Hawaiian informants. Victorian scholars cringed at the name 'Akohekohe because it is a slightly prurient pun. Although it is onomatopoetic, it is also a reference to the resemblance of the bird's crest to pubic hair. The Hawaiians apparently had a well-developed sense of humor. Some Hawaiian names had specific meanings ('Ula-'ai-hawane translates roughly as "red palm creeper"), some were imitative ('elepaio, probably 'I'iwi) and others were just the name of the bird (after all, what does "oriole" or "sparrow" mean in English?). Those names that derive from the birds call or song are marked with the followinghttp://www.birdinghawaii.co.uk/Hawaiianbirdnames2.htm

Learn language! The best thing to do when you are angry enough to cuss is to use words that they don't ordinarily know. That way you can call them just about anything but a person and they don't realize that they've been insulted.

For instance.."You are a superb specimen of a man. Look at that! Solid muscle! Head to toe...and ear to ear. I'm sooo impressed!"

Or...(delivered in your most concerned voice).."Tell me honey, did it hurt when you thought that idea up? Given that you can't say anything original, you must have really strained for that thought. Need some tissue?"

The whole point is that you need to think up these things in advance. Famous people have always delivered devastating comments with just the proper sneer. Dorothy Parker was incredibly famous for these quips, and her circle of friends admired her for them. Simple swear word don't do justice to a towering rage, so you must be prepared for a really great comeback.

My all time favorite was delivered by an extremely frustrated young woman who was forbidden by her faith to swear. After an insult, she drew herself up to her full height, put her hands on her hips and said...

"Excuse me??? You can take that remark, fold it until it is all corners, put it on the end of an umbrella, put the umbrella in a place where the sun doesn't shine....and open it!!!"

I cringed at the visualization. It just takes control, practice, and preparation to effectively silence loud mouthed boors who need "a good talking to." Stooping to swearing reveals that you lack the education to chop a person to bits in a great fashion. Educated people can do it in public without ever swearing, can get the point across to their victim in front of others, can make the victim look ignorant, and all without ever losing their composure.

It's worthwhile to cultivate this way of expressing yourself.

Value, to a serious collector, certainly revolves around not only the condition but also the scarecity of the card. I have been personally collecting TOM BRADY ROOKIES and Brady high-end notable cards since 2001. The cards I cringed at shelling out the lofty $70 - 150 dollars have now peaked at $400 - $4000.00 . I have recently sold merely 3 cards which paid for my entire investment in Tom Brady.The collection totals 114 cards, including rookies, rookie autographed, Super Bowl memorabila carsd with auto, and limited serial numbered cards. Typically, the higher values have been achieved after grading by a sports collectibles service. This process ensures a reasonable third party assesment and protects the card inside a sealed archival quality case. The various foils, embossing, and autographs are very condition sensitive and easily rendered less valuable even with the slightest handling. This process also helps reassure other collectors/investors in knowing what they are paying for when a transaction cannot be made in person, as with eBay. My cards have been acquired from as far away as Hawaii! I recently sold a PSA graded card to a collector in Washington state and Oregon. My original investment over a six year collecting period was between $6,000 - $ 7000. In summary, although I have parted with 8 very nice cards, my remaining "retail value" as reported by Beckett exceeds $23,000 ! Divided by 114, well, you do the math!

Innovations happen every day. Somewhere, someplace, and somehow, someone is inventing something. What is magical to the soul, though, is when that something is a creation that truly changes life for the good. When an object steps forward and can totally alter the way part of society functions, that’s an innovation for the ages.

One of these products is the power chair. A power chair is more contoured to the human body than a wheelchair, which is essentially its mechanical ancestor. Power chairs are sleeker with more functions than a traditional wheelchair. Because of all they can do and their ease of use, the power chair has actually empowered many senior citizens as well as the disabled to live a more fulfilling life.

Thanks to the power chair, users have expanded mobility. They can go for ’walks’, shop at the mall for hours, meet friends for lunch, run errands, take care of their kids and grandchildren, and so much more. While these things appear normal and usual for a great many, for those who have difficulty in walking and/or who physically cannot walk at all, these activities are anything but normal. They are chores, laborious acts which oftentimes are so painful or difficult that they have to be foregone completely.

However, for the ones who can operate a power chair, life is changing. Many power chairs come with lifts that can be attached to vehicles and stored in the trunk. Others are light enough that users with strength to lift can actually just pick up the power chair and place it inside the car, especially since most power chairs fold over for easy travel.

The sleeker design of power chairs means happier homeowners, too. How many have cringed over the years when bulky wheelchairs meant users crashed into furniture, scratching table legs and edges. For users, it wasn’t much of a picnic hitting their knuckles against a wall, either.

The good news for a lot of people is that some insurers and Medicare providers will pay for a power chair, which is admittedly expensive otherwise.

The power chair is empowerment, and it’s about time for this wonderful innovation in life.

Miles per gallon (mpg) has become a prominent topic of interest and discussion over the past decade or two. It is a subject that trends upward every time a spike in oil prices makes headlines. It is a term that has automotive manufacturers on edge. It has inspired technology that has increased the fuel efficiency of current vehicles. It is also a term that has hindered sales of some cars while increasing the demand for others.

Hybrid technology as well as the science behind electric vehicles are direct results of the public's demand for more miles per gallon. What a path we have taken over the past few decades, as one crisis after another impacted the oil market.

Many of us have a clear image and a fond memory of gasoline that pumped out at 33 cents a gallon back in the day. We agonized when the costs rose to 99 cents, cringed when it approached $2, flipped out when fuel reached $3 per gallon, and finally resigned ourselves to $4 and $5 per gallon gas. What a difference a few years makes in our acceptance of things we have no control over.

The higher prices have resigned most of us to accept smaller fuel efficient cars over the behemoths we preferred for years. Huge displacement engines we cherished, have given way to 4 cylinder bangers and vehicles that barely accomodate the tushes of our larger than ever posteriors. The acceptance of the new reality of size and function has had an effect on the price of fuel. Even though prices are high, the better miles per gallon we now obtain has actually somewhat reduced our need for fuel overall, and helped contain the further escalation of costs.

The generations of the 21st century and beyond will never again experience the low cost of fuel from the mid twentieth century. Nor will it experience the gigantic fuel guzzling monster cars old timers fondly recall. Those are distant memories of fast cars that averaged 10 mile per gallon or less. At the time, who cared? You could fill a tank for $5.

New parents need help. This can become obvious the first time a toddler throws himself on the floor, kicking and screaming in public. It can happen when one realizes that young teen is not where you just knew she would be. Some parents take longer than others to realize help is needed. There are better ways of determining this need than waiting for the out-of-control behavior to begin, however. Even for the experienced parents with great family-system support, the need for parenting help can emerge suddenly. The five year old uses the "F" word in front of the grandparents. The seven year old won't stop feeding paper to the dog. Your three and a half year old is still wearing diapers, even though you've followed the potty training manual exactly. All of these instances are highlighting a lack of effective communication with your child. Some parents rely heavily on the trade and barter system. This is an excellent model, because it promotes equality and respect between two beings who need each other. When you are working to obtain specific results and the treat for the chore policy is failing, its time to consider getting parenting help. Perhaps you have a herd of girls upstairs being raucous. You yell up toward the ceiling "whats going on up there?" You hear a reply: "noooootthhiiinnnggg mmoommm...." only to arrive on the scene finding your best cosmetics made into soup in your toilet bowl. This, is a good time for parenting advice. Maybe a team of boys all say, six or so are having that same noisy great time upstairs. Suddenly it gets quiet. You call up to them: "what's going on up there?" They yell back: "Joey just threw the cat down the laundry shoot, and it was really cool!" How does the good parent respond? Getting parenting help is not an admission of failure. Quite the contrary. Getting parenting help is a great way to ensure a harmonious family life, and a long, fruitful marriage. Do you remember how it felt to be raised by your parents? It is highly likely you are following in their footsteps-- like it, or not. If you cringed at this thought--it is definitely time for parenting advice.

The Vietnam War was responsible for a heavy strain on the financial resources of the US economy. Due to the war exigency, there was a negative imbalance in the industrial sector. Factories which were manufacturing consumer goods had to shift their onus towards catering to the demands of the military. A war never benefits anyone; this statement proved right to America too.

Due to excessive military spending and diversion of funds overseas, the dollar weakened. There was no equivalent amount of funds coming into the country. The country cringed under the strain of household social spending and subsidies on one side and military expenditure on the other. The government earned dissatisfaction from the general public as the interest rates rose and inflationary trends ballooned. The affluent lifestyle of the 60s which prevailed in the US began to erode because of the economic paralysis which laid the country forlorn in the 70s' Vietnam War.
