8 the Stars and Bars

амер.; ист.

флаг семи южных штатов США (отколовшихся от Союза в 1860-61 гг. и существовавших как отдельная конфедерация до 1865 г.) [на флаге были три полосы и семь звёзд]; см. тж. the Stars and Stripes

Yes, the Cause was dead but war had always seemed foolish to her and peace was better. She had never stood starry eyed when the Stars and Bars ran up a pole or felt cold chills when "Dixie" sounded. (M. Mitchell, ‘Gone with the Wind’, ch. XXIX) — Да, дело южан было проиграно, но война всегда казалась Скарлетт глупостью, мир был лучше. Она не испытывала ликования, когда поднимали флаг семи южных штатов, и у нее не пробегали мурашки по спине, когда пели "Дикси"

9 on the rocks

1) в тяжёлом положении; на краю гибели; см. тж. go on the rocks

Captain Shotover: "The Church is on the rocks, breaking up." (B. Shaw, ‘Heartbreak House’, act III) — Капитан Шотовер: "Церковь швырнуло на скалы, ее разнесет в щепы..."

How near she had been to drifting on the rocks when Cowperwood had appeared. (Th. Dreiser, ‘The Titan’, ch. L) — Разве не была она на краю гибели, когда на ее пути появился Каупервуд.

And now his marriage was on the rocks; May wanted to divorce him and he had promised to let her if she still wanted to after the war was over. (W. S. Maugham, ‘The Hour before the Dawn’, ch. XIV) — Его семья разваливалась. Мей настаивала на разводе, и он обещал дать ей свободу, когда война кончится, если, конечно, она все еще будет настаивать на этом.

2) в стеснённых обстоятельствах; ≈ на мели

The lot and portion of one in eight British workers remains the lot of unemployment: 1.460.000 citizens of this great democracy are still on the rocks, despite the so-called boom, which already is hurtling towards its inevitable capitalist sequel - a disastrous slump. (H. Pollitt, ‘Selected Articles and Speeches’, ‘Salute to the Soviet Union’) — Уделом каждого восьмого английского рабочего остается безработица: 1460 тысяч граждан этой великой "демократии" все еще находятся в стесненных обстоятельствах, несмотря на так называемый бум, который уже ведет к неизбежному при капитализме результату - катастрофическому кризису.

‘Financially you are on the rocks then?’ ‘...I think I've never been off the rocks, really.’ (Th. Dreiser, ‘The Stoic’, ch. 13) — - Итак, значит, говоря о финансах, вы сейчас очутились на мели? -...По правде говоря, я по-настоящему с этой мели и не съезжал.

But there was no next number of the Native Companion. The magazine did not survive the gay ways of its creator and editor. A rumour spread that when its business affairs were on the rocks, he and his partner went off on a spree and got somebody to announce to creditors that they were dead. (K. S. Prichard, ‘Child of the Hurricane’, ch. XIV) — Однако следующий номер "Собеседника" так и не вышел. Беспутная жизнь его основателя и редактора роковым образом сказалась на судьбе журнала. Поговаривали, что, когда финансовые дела этого издания приняли плачевный оборот, Брэди и его компаньон поручили кому-то сообщить кредиторам о своей смерти, а сами отправились в увеселительную поездку.

3) со льдом ( о напитке) [первонач. амер.]

Everybody's got a drink... And I... am going to have a dry martini on the rocks. (J. Baldwin, ‘Another Country’, book I, ch. III) — Похоже, что все выпивают... Я... буду пить сухое мартини со льдом.

10 only good Indian is a dead Indian, The

"Хороший индеец - только мертвый индеец"

Фраза, приписываемая генералу Ф. Шеридану [ Sheridan, Philip Henry]. Спустя десятилетие, когда война была закончена и индейцы были разгромлены, он же высказался следующим образом: " Мы отобрали у них земли и средства к существованию, нарушили их жизненный уклад, их обычаи, принесли им болезни и загнивание общества, и именно поэтому и против всего этого они объявили войну. Мог ли кто-либо ожидать чего-то иного?" ["We took away their country and their means of support, broke up their mode of living, their habit of life, introduced dicease and decay among them, and it was for this and against this that they made war. Could anyone expect less?"]

DÍA DE LOS MUERTOS 2 November, All Souls' Day, called the Día de los Muertos elsewhere in the Spanish-speaking world and Día de los Difuntos in Spain, is the day when Christians throughout the Spanish-speaking world traditionally honour their dead. In Mexico the festivities are particularly spectacular with a week-long festival, starting on 1 November, in which Christian and ancient pagan customs are married. 1 November itself is for children who have died, while 2 November is set aside for adults. Families meet to take food, flowers and sweets in the shape of skeletons, coffins and crosses to the graves of their loved ones. In Spain people celebrate the Día de los Difuntos by taking flowers to the cemetery. 20-N N 20-N is commonly used as shorthand to refer to the anniversary of General Franco's death on 20 November 1975. Every year supporters of the far right hold a commemorative rally in Madrid's Plaza de Oriente, the scene of many of Franco's speeches to the people.
