Leeway is the amount of drift motion to leeward of an object floating in the water caused by the component of the wind vector that is perpendicular to the object’s forward motion. The National Search and Rescue Supplement to the International Aeronautical and Maritime Search and Rescue Manual defines leeway as "the movement of a search object through water caused by winds blowing against exposed surfaces". However, the resultant total motion of an object is made up of the leeway drift and the movement of the upper layer of the ocean caused by the surface currents, tidal currents and ocean currents. Objects with a greater exposure to each element will experience more leeway drift and overall movement through the water than ones with less exposure.
A navigator or pilot on a vessel must adjust the ordered course to compensate for the leeway drift and more important set and drift, an all encompassing term for drift that includes the steering error of the vessel. Failure to make these adjustments during a voyage will yield poor navigational results.Bowditch's American Practical Navigator (1995) offers a comprehensive free guide to navigation principles.
Edward Lee Morgan (July 10, 1938, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – February 19, 1972, New York City) was an American hard bop trumpeter.
Edward Lee Morgan was born in Philadelphia on July 10, 1938, the youngest of Otto Ricardo and Nettie Beatrice Morgan's four children.
Lee Morgan, a leading trumpeter and composer, recorded prolifically from 1956 until a day before his death in February 1972. Originally interested in the vibraphone, he soon showed a growing enthusiasm for the trumpet. Morgan also knew how to play the alto saxophone. On his thirteenth birthday, his sister Ernestine gave him his first trumpet. His primary stylistic influence was Clifford Brown, who gave the teenager a few lessons before he joined the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band at 18, and remained a member for a year and a half, until the economical situation forced Dizzy to disband the unit in 1958. He began recording for Blue Note Records in 1956, eventually recording 25 albums as a leader for the company, with more than 250 musicians. He also recorded on the Vee-Jay label.
Joseph Martin Leeway (born 15 November 1955, Islington, London) is the former multi-instrumentalist, and stylings guru, for the 1980s band, the Thompson Twins. Leeway joined the Thompson Twins in 1980 after being one of their roadies.
He was born to an Irish mother and Nigerian father, but was fostered to an English family in Dartford, Kent, from the age of two. At college he took English and Drama, then he began teaching English, which was how he met Tom Bailey. He joined a theatre group in Cardiff after failing to establish his own company. He spent a year with the Young Vic theatre before joining the Thompson Twins as a roadie at Tom Bailey's invitation.
Playing bongos and congas, he appeared on the Thompson Twins debut album, A Product of ... (Participation). By the time the band recorded their second album Set in 1982, Leeway had begun contributing to the songwriting process, and he wrote a pair of songs for the album completely on his own and sang lead on three tracks.
At that time in 1982, the Thompson Twins underwent a radical change in line-up. Previously an ever-changing lineup of musicians that featured seven members at the time of Set, band leader Tom Bailey reduced the band to a trio by firing everybody except Alannah Currie and Leeway. Leeway's main role in the new trio was to assist in writing the songs, contribute background vocals and design the band's stage shows. Leeway's background in theatre made him an obvious and well-suited choice for the latter, and the live shows of the band were always met with success and critical acclaim.
Once too many
But once not enough
Wall of stone
Being on your own
(chorus)
Oh, in my mind
Coming into a grind
I want you through
Alone in your solitude
First time out
You'll see what it's all about
Going nowhere fast
Being the first and the last
Another hopeless night
Caught between wrong and right
Going nowhere fast
Bodies stacked in three, counting up the toll
The greed in your eyes has eaten all your soul
I sit at home I watch you on the news
Yeah, I can see you're missing a few screws
Won't let you do what you want to
Judgment of the world is to die, defy you!
Implements of destruction you can see this time it's not a Russian
Turbanhead wants to see you dead
He doesn't care his life he'll even expend
Innocent to genocide
Nowhere to run; nowhere to hide
Couldn't save your ass even if you tried
All you want to do is even up the score
It's too real, to deal with a full dose of gore
Someone's kicking down your door
Ventilated by shells as you hit the floor
The kid is getting older, his time is bitter and colder. All work and no play makes jack a dull boy.
His time for mind is toy to destroy.
A cop out, on ignorance without a fight or a second chance, you think it's the only way out, in bedroom walls with in a gun in your mouth? NO!
You leave behind the guilt.
Shame, all the pain. You're walking out the door cause you can't take it anymore.
Farrakhan semetic death raids
Black man wants jews on a plate
Fascist religions, noxious parades
Turning racism into charades
Evil minds are learning
Constantly churning
A negative approach
Burying your hopes
Tools for war
Chemical Gore
Rich control, sympathy for the poor
Kill or be killed ways
All to your dismay
Terrorists in action
World unsatisfaction
That's the way they want it to be
You know that things ain't easy
But you can hold your breath until you're blue in the face
You want to take my life
Draft me; abduct me
What does all this mean?
How can I even the score?
Tools for war
Now I'll have to suffer
Say goodbye to mother
Pay your last respects
Cause I have no regrets
That's the way they want it to be
You know that things aint easy
The button is red
So let it be said
In a matter of time
Uncle Sam is in his rocking chair.
His ageless face is all a gaunt and weared (sic).
He tries to find solutions.
We all support you with that honest hand.
Under the table, just like we don't care.
So what's a future that's desperate?
OH NO, I won't wait.
What's to make in an honest game?
You gonna break in your claim to fame.
Satisfaction or a shattered life?
And so you have yourself another go, but it's just another wasted day.
A life full of dreams ain't all what it seems.
Caught like a rat in the middle of a deathtrap.
While life to you is on hold, everyone seems cold.
With no one to rest your morals or laurels to.
Cock a doodle-do.
But you can't feel it, but you can't feel it.
It doesn't feel the same way.
Still you keep trying, still you keep trying.
It's just another wasted day.
I know this girl ain't tame and guess who's to blame.
She's not being fair, she don't care.
I know it's not my last chance, but it feels that way. I've got desires, but she's shutting me out.
You see the pleasure is turning to pain.
I miss you, oh I miss you bad.
More and more I go mad. I miss you OH SO BAD. More than I ever had. Momma didn't raise no fool, you know I always played you cool.
When I feel your touch nothing remains. Don't try to run away from me, while I try to believe.
Ball hugger, ball hugger, ball hugger, Bo! This one goes out to all the hard-asses who think their holier than thou. I get a kick out of you when I go out.
Playing in the sandbox with the well-endowed.
OH SO PROUD.
Kiss that kiss-hug that hug.
A ball hugger's work is never done. Well don't forget we remember everything you say.
You look and feel like you have lost ya way. Like a fool you answer all of my ways. You find a fool and live for another day.
You get along in tricks, just to get your kicks. Do everything I said just to get along. One heart that's cold, one heart that's sold.
Hey lets watch that punk try to stand proud (well-endowed) Well don't forget we remember everything that you say.
With your look and appeal like the undead.
Here comes the tricky day, one to keep an eye on, jewel, you can talk in your sleep
Cause i've got better things on my mind.
Life's a peddling role play, in this business sport and scam. High rise and on the lam any which way you can � . Somebody make me an offer.
Falling behind the deadline, quick to point the finger. Hands full or even tied, everything starting to linger. So what cha gonna do for me, besides take me for a ride.
How ya living you old punk everyone knows you lied. Somebody make me an offer.
So you think I should fall like a tragedy? You better get to dreams straight before you wake up.
Can you feel my suffering? Or any of my pain. Those sleepless nights drove me insane.
Their dishonesty took me away.
Yet they still had nothing to say. So, you'll ruin me huh? We'll see about that.
I've got the soul of a dragon that'll burn you boy. Ill play with you like a child plays with his toys, separate the men from the boys.
So you follow-you follow your hero. Cause he ain't no hero, no way. So you follow-you follow your hero. Cause he ain't no hero, mikey play. Follow.
You take away my treasure, and we'll go to war.
Either you or me have got to go-so we'll go to war-if that's the way you want it.
If that's what you need, we'll go to war-if that's the way you want it.
No matter what I say, you try to find a difference.
You sit and laugh as if to say you've already gone the distance.
So tell me boss, are you the first to reach the plane.
I can't possibly think of what it is that has kept you sane. Tell me about it-what do you stand for?
Tell me about it-what do you stand for? What's gonna be your purpose.
No one should have to plan day by day living if true respect is the helping hand. Don't try to cut away from my stance. Your first attempt will be your last chance. Remember your fate is chosen.
It's not my stubborn illusion. Keep on laughing, mock and swoon. It's coming with age, your stage of doom-boyee. The kids have gone their own way.
All hail the kingpin, the one with soul, who's in control. With the poker face stare, never concerned, always giving orders.
Do you know this man?
Well if you don't I think you should. Shake his hand; he's the modern day robin hood.
Walk along the wire, the risk is always higher. Walking fine lines helps you pass the time.
He doesn't care what you have to say cause he knows that he's getting paid. Who's knows any other way?
Go for broke-do what cha gotta do.
You know what i'm saying. Go for broke-do what cha gotta do. You know what I say.
You can go for yours, but you better have some respect. Cause you don't want a man like that to connect-NO.
Time bomb against will, and all you feel are chills. You're doing more time and losing more mind.
Still it's something you can't find.
Keep on trying to win, nut the itch keeps doing you in. you're calling it quits, but the shoes fits, and you don't know where to begin.
You know you got it all wrong.
The lower east side of New York City. A sob story that'll make you pity.
Boys In a game with no one to blame but himself and its all his shame. There is no answer in search for a high. No matter what you endure, no matter what you try � cause it's all about dope.
Here's the story about a boy and his plan.
Trying to be a man. Buyin' bags for the price of ten, but his arms won't mend.
Union square at about 9 o'clock
Friday night, boy was he rocked
Just a dumb beer drinking jock
Unaware as he staggered and mocked
On the platform you see a push
There's a slam and an eerie squish
Hear the cracking of his back
The bloody limbs grind the red tracks
Insta-death your last breath
Split-second prayers won't save
The shit you've stepped in
Insta-death your last breath
It's all over now
And this is your last wind
Folks can't deal with a mad mad world
Try and fly cute little girl
People all freaked out on the ruckus
Scrape - Scrape into a bucket
All dreams are six feet in the floor
Atop the clouds in front of Peter's door
Finding your way out becomes a chore
Looks like death is a hopeless bore
Lie unexpected, lie unexpected
Dear mother brings you flowers
As you both rot away the hours
The aftermath of time
Getting off on catastrophes to run away from reality
Scores of people in writhing pain
This is the country that has to reign
See an end to all of our hopes
Put every fool on the end of a rope
A rising force and the power grows
Wake the sleeping giant that no one knows
Keep fighting for your life
You're in a marathon race now
I don't need to show you proof
Cause no one wants to hear the truth
You've always been on your own
Protecting the brothers and the blood
TOmorrow's another day
And he who fucks with you pays in spades
Morality's an all time low
A fucking laugh wherever you go
Everyone's looking at the past
The man's got the magnum
Bows down to none
Cops and cowboys is his life
And everything he's won
No matter how he slices
Any which way but loose
Action is his vice
Adrenalin his juice
Turn around face me
Gravedigger you better make it three
Turn around face me
The good, the bad, and the ugly
Do whatever I say c'mon and make my day
A fistful of dollars is what you're gonna pay
And hell followed with him
The pale rider destined
Spit from his jaw
The rise and fall from grace
You watch them stick it into your face
So whats a poor kid gonna do
If all your dreams fall through
Cause this world is all about money
And that doesn't make it funny
Just uncomfortable
Keep trying to get the best of me
While the media hunts him
One man doesn't sleep
Finds harrassment for life
Mother sits there and weeps
They say the action's progress
Crime doesn't end
He might have been mugged before
But he'll never be mugged again!
Why must we lose what we earn
Because of someone else's greed
Is it fair to sew a hole in my side
Because someone else has a need?
The season's controversy, guilty or not guilty?
Been another mark made another spawn of fear
Some dude in Chicago has copped the same idea
Self defense is innocence!
Now everyone with a gun is on a rampage
Armed citizens are holy saints
Deathwish killer, the six o'clock rage
Exhausted, but still I can't sleep
I'm trying to survive another fucking week
Meaningless job, a menial slave
Absorbing knowledge to bring to my grave
Born to expire
Frustrating, seething and teemed
My blood's boiling higher
God please, please set me free
Little bits of bullshit making me weak
I don't want my life to be hopelessly bleak
Sweating like a dog just to get in this game
And I'm just a number no name
How much more does life have in store
Before the reaper comes to get paid?
Authorites catch
Civil laws don't match
And it takes my P.M.A.
Staring at the walls, constantly numb
Try to think of what I can do for fun
Aggravation coursing through my nerves
