The coach blew his whistle and screamed, "Nolan, you get up there and you try again." His face turned red as he shouted orders. Not wanting to make the coach angrier, Nolan lifted himself off the mat and grabbed the rope again. He pulled. Again, Nolan felt weak and intimidated. The coach blew his whistle again.

An old man was throwing breadcrumbs at a group of pigeons. No matter where the breadcrumbs landed, a big grey pigeon with a white spot on his head seemed to get the largest portion. The old man threw a large crust morsel away from the big grey pigeon and toward a smaller white pigeon. As soon as the white pigeon got a bite of the bread crust, the big grey pigeon snatched it and began eating it. Then the old man tore up the remaining bread crusts and threw them all at once. The pigeons flocked around the feast.

Debra was walking a big black Labrador along the beach. The dog was unleashed, but he didn't seem to stray far from her. As Debra walked in the sand, the Labrador bounded through the waves. As the dog fell a few feet behind Debra, she called out to him, "Come on, Duke! Come here boy!" Duke barked, ran from the water, and caught Debra quickly.
