La peine de mort est l'objet d'une vive polémique aux États-Unis, où elle est autorisée dans 38 États. Dans les années soixante-dix, la constitutionnalité de la peine de mort fut remise en question; la Cour Suprême jugea qu'elle était souvent appliquée de façon arbitraire et plus de 600 détenus virent leur peine commuée. Par conséquent les condamnés à mort furent de plus en plus nombreux à demander à ce que leur cas soit réexaminé, ce qui aboutit au surpeuplement des quartiers réservés aux condamnés à mort. Au cours des dernières années, le nombre d'exécutions capitales a augmenté de façon spectaculaire dans certains États, notamment au Texas. -

7 the articles of Faith
1) догматы церкви, основы какой-л. религии...witnesses came forward who were prepared to swear that they had heard Domingo utter the most horrid blasphemies, and there were two who had heard him say that to believe in the Articles of Faith was first and foremost a matter of good breeding. This in itself was enough to make him a proper subject for inquiry by the Holy Office... (W. S. Maugham, ‘Catalina’, ch. 2) —...появились свидетели, которые под присягой были готовы показать, что они слышали, как Доминго изрекал ужаснейшие богохульства, а два свидетеля даже слышали, как он сказал, что вера в догматы католической церкви - это прежде всего результат хорошего воспитания. Одного этого было достаточно, чтобы им заинтересовалась святая инквизиция...
2) символ веры, кредо (употр. тж. в ед. ч.)This is the article of my faith: I am what I am, and can be no other, (S. Chaplin, ‘The Big Room’, ch. XI) — Мое кредо: я такой как есть и другим быть не могу.
Anyone familiar with police mentality knows that law enforcement officers interpret the law freely, and that it is an article of faith among them that a suspect is guilty until proven innocent. (W. Manchester, ‘The Death of a President’, ch. 2) — Всякий, кто знаком с психологией полицейских, знает, что блюстители закона толкуют его как хотят. Среди них господствует мнение, что подозреваемый виноват, пока его невиновность не доказана.
‘Daddy's very good, about things like elections.’ She regarded her husband for a moment, then, reproachfully, she said, ‘You don't believe him, do you?’ ‘About uncle Frank being defeated? Well, it's a pretty doubtful article of faith, isn't it?’ he said. ‘Even coming from your father.’ (E. O'Connor, ‘The Last Hurrah’, part I, ch. II) — - Папа хорошо разбирается в таких делах, как выборы, - Мэл посмотрела на мужа и прибавила укоризненно: - Ты этому не веришь? - Тому, что дядя Фрэнк потерпит поражение? Ну, это еще вилами на воде писано, - сказал Адам. - Даже если твой отец в этом не сомневается.

8 the Kissing Moon
сущ.; собст.; SK, DTб) название месяца Июля в мире Роланда, когда в полнолуние на диске луны можно было различь целующуюся пару влюблённыхсм. тж Peddler’s Moon (б)Once there, Rhea did grip Susan’s arm. Then, with her other hand, she pointed to the bright silver disc hanging over the top of the Cöos. / “The Kissing Moon,” Rhea said. “ ‘Tis midsummer.” — А вот на крыльце Риа сжала запястье Сюзан. А второй рукой указала на яркий серебристый диск, висящий над вершиной Кооса. – Целующаяся Луна. Середина лета. (ТБ 4)
Overhead rode the moon, the shadows on its bright skin sketching the faces of lovers kissing… if you believed the ordinary fools below, that was. The ordinary fools below saw a different face or set of faces in each full moon, but the hag knew there was only one—the face of the Demon. The face of death. — Над головой плыла луна, тени на ее сверкающей поверхности складывались в лица целующихся влюбленных… если верить дуракам, что жили внизу. Обычные люди видели разные лица или лицо каждое полнолуние, но старая карга знала, что лицо на луне только одно – лицо демона, лицо смерти. Она же давно не чувствовала себя такой живой. (ТБ 4)

9 run the gauntlet
подвергаться резкой критике, ожесточённым нападкам; сделаться предметом насмешек [этим. воен. run the gantlope пройти сквозь строй (gauntlet искажённое gantlope)]...she had to run the gauntlet of her mother's liking for her company and her father's wish for her to go with him to Richmond and play golf. (J. Galsworthy, ‘Fraternity’, ch. XIV) —...она была между двух огней: ее мать хотела, чтобы она оставалась с ней, а отец звал ее с собой в Ричмонд, чтобы играть в гольф.
Now Poirot and Rosalie only ran the gauntlet of the shops... ‘You visit my shop today, sir?’ ‘You want that ivory crocodile, sir?’ (A. Christie, ‘Death on the Nile’, ch. II) — Теперь Пуаро и Розали со всех сторон зазывали продавцы... "Вы не заглянете ко мне сегодня, сэр?.. Вас не интересует этот крокодил из слоновой кости, сэр?"
He ran the gauntlet of criticism from every doctor in the country when he published his book. (CDEI) — Когда были опубликована его книга, он стал объектом критики всех врачей в стране.

10 there's the rub
(there's the rub (позднее тж. here lies the rub))вот в чём трудность, тут-то и загвоздка; ≈ вот где собака зарыта [there's the rub шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]Hamlet: "...To die, - to sleep; - To sleep! perchance to dream: - ay, there's the rub. For in that sleep of death what dreams may come... " (W. Shakespeare, ‘Hamlet’, act III, sc. 1) — Гамлет: "...Умереть, уснуть. Уснуть! И видеть сны, быть может? Вот в чем трудность; Какие сны приснятся в смертном сне... " (перевод М. Лозинского)
But then, here lies the rub. The Halcyon frigate is expected here in these parts immediately; when she hears of you she will be at you... (W. Scott, ‘The Pirate’, ch. XXXIV) — Но сложность положения вот в чем: фрегат "Алкион" ожидается здесь с минуты на минуту; когда на нем узнают о том, что вы здесь, то фрегат нападет на вас...
‘Then if you come back you bring her something of value.’ ‘Yes, but that "if". There was the rub.’ (Gr. Greene, ‘The Man Within’, ch. VI) — - Если ты вернешься, привези этой девушке хороший подарок. - Привезу, конечно, но в этом-то "если" вся загвоздка.
The contract confirms the owner in his own concept of his rights: ‘I own the press and I alone will run it. There shall be no meddling by employees or public.’ Or public! Ay, there's the rub. For skillfully buried in this formula lies the little matter of freedom of the press! (G. Marion, ‘Stop the Press!’, ch. 14) — Контракт подтвердил взгляд владельца на его права: "Мне принадлежит печать, и я один буду управлять ею. Никакого вмешательства со стороны служащих и публики". Публика! Вот тут-то и зарыта собака! Именно в этой формуле искусно погребен мелкий вопросец о свободе печати.

The only thing is to cut the knot for good OЛ Galsworthy) -
12 face the music
1) стоически переносить трудности, неприятности, мужественно встречать критику [первонач. амер.]He could never buttonhole the ordinary voter, and say to him: ‘Look here, you know, there's no earthly hope of any real improvement for another ten years; in the meantime we must face the music, and pay more for everything... so that twenty years hence we may be safe from possible starvation, and self-supporting within the Empire.’ (J. Galsworthy, ‘The Silver Spoon’, part I, ch. XII) — Не может он пойти к рядовому избирателю и сказать ему: "Послушайте, нечего надеяться на то, что в течение следующих десяти лет условия жизни значительно улучшатся; мы... должны пока потерпеть, за все переплачивать, для того чтобы через двадцать лет Англия могла сама себя прокормить и не жить под угрозой голодной смерти".
Mrs. Dot: "Well, the fact is, Freddie... Poor Nellie Sellenger is desperately in love with you." Freddie: "I don't see why you should want me to go away on that account... Nothing will induce me to desert a post of danger. I'm going to face the music." (W. S. Maugham, ‘Mrs. Dot’, act II) — Миссис Дот: "Нет никакого сомнения, Фредди... что бедняжка Нелли Селленджер безумно влюблена в вас." Фредди: "Не понимаю, почему вы хотите, чтобы я из-за этого ушел. Ничто не заставит меня отступить с опасных позиций. я выдержу испытание не дрогнув."
2) держать ответ за что-л., расплачиваться за свои поступки‘I gather,’ said Michael, with a spurt of cheerfulness, ‘That it was only in the desert both times that Jule heard the story.’ ‘What's in the desert to-day is in the bazaars to-morrow. It's no use, I shall have to face the music.’ (J. Galsworthy, ‘Flowering Wilderness’, ch. X) — - По словам того же Юола, об этом пока говорят только в пустыне, - сказал Майкл, пытаясь приободрить Дезерта. - Сегодня в пустыне, завтра - на базарах. Пропащее дело. Придется испить чашу до дна.
‘You're wrong,’ she said. ‘I'm sure you're wrong. It'd be far better to go back and face the music.’ (A. Christie, ‘So Many Steps to Death’, ch. 21) — - Вы поступаете неправильно, - сказала Хилари. - я уверена, что неправильно. Для вас было бы гораздо лучше вернуться на родину и держать ответ перед законом.
In two months they were engaged. Beryl refused to go home for her holi days, she said she wouldn't leave Frank, so Al was left to face the music alone. (D. Hewett, ‘Bobbin Up’, ch. 6) — через два месяца Фрэк и Берил обручились. Берил отказалась ехать в отпуск домой, чтобы не разлучаться с Фрэком. Элис пришлось одной выдержать бурю.

13 from the jaws of death
из когтей смерти (обыкн. употр. с гл. to pull, to rescue, to snatch и др.)You've pulled us all out of the jaws of death. My word! It was a good bit of work! (A. C. Doyle, ‘The Lost World’, ch. XIII) — Вы всех нас вырвали из когтей смерти. Как это было сделано! я просто восхищаюсь вами.
But, of course, he would be very, very seedy indeed, and would in fact die, if Georgie didn't devote herself night and day (not neglecting her other patients, of course) and snatch him back from the very jaws of death. (R. Aldington, ‘The Colonel's Daughter’, part IV, ch. 5) — И ему, разумеется, было бы очень-очень худо и он умер бы, если бы Джорджи не ухаживала за ним день и ночь (не забывая, конечно, и о других пациентах). Она буквально вырвала его из когтей смерти.

14 go off the deep end
разг.1) потерять самообладание, выйти из себя, вспылить, разозлиться, погорячитьсяI happen to mention the other day to a well-known literateur that I had the honour and pleasure of your friendship. He thereupon went off the deep end, cursing you loudly and bitterly for taking part in the recent Leith by-election... (S. O'Casey, ‘Rose and Crown’, ‘Feathering His Nest’) — На днях в разговоре с известным литератором я сказал, что имею честь и удовольствие быть вашим другом. Услышав это, он вспылил, стал кричать и ругал вас на чем свет стоит за участие в недавних дополнительных выборах в Лисе...
Ivor, tried to explain and then I tried to explain and then about forty people in the office went off the deep end, so I said I'd meet him for lunch. (J. B. Priestley, ‘Angel Pavement’, ch. V) — Айвор пытался объяснить мне все, а потом я пробовала объяснить ему, а затем все сорок человек у нас в конторе как с цепи сорвались, и тогда я сказала ему, что мы встретимся за завтраком.
2) действовать сгоряча, необдуманно, поступать опрометчиво, безрассудно; идти на крайности (тж. амер. жарг. jump off the deep end)I know what makes him go off the deep end all the time, though of course I think he ought to control himself better. (J. B. Priestley, ‘Daylight on Saturday’, ch. 34) — Я понял, что постоянно толкает его на безрассудства, хотя, конечно, ему бы следовало крепче держать себя в руках.
Mrs. Fitz: "There's something wrong with that girl, I'm afraid." Clancy: "Gone off the deep end." Mrs. Fitz: "I've seen her about a lot lately with one of the officers from the Dutch ship in dock for repair." Clancy: "Yes - and drinking like a fish." (D. Cusack, ‘Shoulder the Sky’, act I) — Миссис Фитц: "Боюсь, что-то неладное с девчонкой." Клэнси: "Пустилась во все тяжкие." Миссис Фитц: "Я часто встречала ее последнее время с одним офицером с голландского судна, стоящего в доке на ремонте." Клэнси: "Да и пить стала она без всякой меры."
...she never seemed to mix with the other children, never brought her friends home, wasn't interested in boys. Maybe if they had tried to make her live a normal life, she wouldn't have gone off the deep end the way she had over the first boy she fell in love with. (D. Cusack, ‘Say No to Death’, ch. 2) —...она никогда не дружила с другими детьми, никогда не приводила друзей домой, не интересовалась мальчишками. Может быть, если бы родители меньше опекали ее, у нее не зашло бы все так далеко с первым же парнем, который ей понравился.

15 flutter the dove-cots
переполошить весь "курятник", вызвать переполох [шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]; см. тж. a flutter in the dove-cotsCoriolanus: "...If you have writ your annals true, 't is there, That, like an eagle in a dove-cote, I Flutter'd your Volscians in Corioli: Alone I did it..." (W. Shakespeare, ‘Coriolanus’, act V, sc. 6) — Кориолан: "...Если правда есть В преданиях и летописях ваших, То там найдете вы, что я один Так, как орел, влетевший в голубятню, В Кориоли вгонял дружины вольсков!.." (перевод А. Дружинина)
‘There have been times, Dinny, when I've had my doubts.’ ‘Not about Michael.’ ‘No, no; he's a first-rate fellow. But Fleur has fluttered their dovecote once or twice; since her father's death, however, she's been exemplary.’ (J. Galsworthy, ‘Maid in Waiting’, ch. XXII) — - Было время, Динни, когда я чувствовал тревогу. - Надеюсь, не из-за Майкла? - Нет, нет, на него вполне можно положиться. Но Флер раза два переполошила их курятник. Впрочем, после смерти отца она ведет себя примерно.

It is a tea made from the dried leaves of the “yerba maté” plant. Most typically, it is made in, and then drunk from, a receptacle made from the husk of a small gourd, itself called a maté. These can also be made of other materials such as wood, china or bone. The maté is drunk through a type of metal straw with a perforated bulbous end called a “bombilla”. Maté is a stimulant, contains various nutrients, and is held to be good for the digestion. It was drunk by the Guarani Indians long before the Spanish conquest. The conquistadors took to the habit, and also developed it as a commercial crop. Drinking maté is an everyday habit today for the majority of people from all social classes in Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay, and it is felt by many to be an essential part of being from the River Plate region.* * *I adj mattII m1 en ajedrez mate2 L.Am.
