New Era may refer to:
New Era is an official magazine of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). First published in January 1971 along with the Ensign and the Friend, the New Era's intended audience has always been the church's youth. The magazine replaced the similarly themed The Improvement Era, a periodical published from 1897 to 1970.
In its first issue, the editor of the New Era explained the rationale for its creation, stating:
The New Era regularly includes articles written by general authorities of the LDS Church on gospel topics, as well as articles contributed by other church members on topics such as preparing for marriage, media and entertainment, and the family. Poems, artwork, tips for coping with life's challenges, and true stories of inspiration, are also commonplace. Other regular features include Questions & Answers (a question for the youth (e.g., "How can I know I've truly been forgiven after I've repented?") and readers' responses), and the New Era poster (or MormonAd).
Indiana i/ɪndiˈænə/ is a U.S. state located in the midwestern and Great Lakes regions of North America. Indiana is the 38th largest by area and the 16th most populous of the 50 United States. Its capital and largest city is Indianapolis. Indiana was admitted to the United States as the 19th U.S. state on December 11, 1816.
Before becoming a territory, varying cultures of indigenous peoples and historic Native Americans inhabited Indiana for thousands of years. Since its founding as a territory, settlement patterns in Indiana have reflected regional cultural segmentation present in the Eastern United States; the state's northernmost tier was settled primarily by people from New England and New York, Central Indiana by migrants from the Mid-Atlantic states and from adjacent Ohio, and Southern Indiana by settlers from the Southern states, particularly Kentucky and Tennessee.
Indiana has a diverse economy with a gross state product of $298 billion in 2012. Indiana has several metropolitan areas with populations greater than 100,000 and a number of smaller industrial cities and towns. Indiana is home to several major sports teams and athletic events including the NFL's Indianapolis Colts, the NASL's Indy Eleven, the NBA's Indiana Pacers, the WNBA's Indiana Fever, the Indianapolis 500, and Brickyard 400 motorsports races.
Indiana is the third album by singer/songwriter David Mead, his first for Nettwerk. It was released in 2004.
SS Indiana was an iron passenger-cargo steamship built by William Cramp & Sons in 1873. The third of a series of four Pennsylvania-class vessels, Indiana and her three sister ships – Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois – were the largest iron ships ever built in the United States at the time of their construction, and among the first to be fitted with compound steam engines. They were also the first ships to challenge British dominance of the transatlantic trade since the American Civil War.
Though soon outclassed by newer vessels, Indiana was to enjoy a substantial 36-year career, a highlight of which was her transportation of United States President Ulysses S. Grant on the first leg of his celebrated 1877–78 world tour. After 24 years of transatlantic crossings, Indiana was sold for Pacific service, before being requisitioned as a troopship for service during the Spanish–American War. She was wrecked off Isla Santa Margarita, Mexico, in 1909.
The four Pennsylvania class liners were constructed at a cost of $520,000 each by William Cramp & Sons on behalf of the American Steamship Company (ASC), a subsidiary of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. The Railroad intended to utilize the vessels to bring European immigrants direct to Philadelphia, thus ensuring the company a steady stream of customers. In recognition of this purpose, the four ships—Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois and Ohio—were named after the four states serviced by the Railroad. Design of the ships was entrusted to Charles H. Cramp of the Cramp & Sons shipyard, and Barnabas H. Bartol, a director of the ASC.
[Chorus: Gumz]
It's time to re-up, Gumz is the new persona
You don't want drama, bad karma, sick like suicide bombers
I light a path to a new era, metaphor's wet
Clever rappers get your head severed
[Gumz:]
Feel the darkness, for starters, Gumz flow is fucking heartless
Spare not a soul of the pain fucking carnage
I'm a whore child with a raw style
Brutalize a rhyme like a lost tribe
Toss lives in the trash, fucking burial ass
No class, in a class of my own, too brash
Yo I ain't cocky, but y'all are too sloppy
Ever single verse I heard is bubble gum poppy
Yeah it sells records but also your soul
A million dollar dance with the Devil is the toll
So if your goal is to trade the respect
Just for a check in return then I'm turning your neck
You learning it yet? Burning the deck
I'm the certain the best
Word on the streets said I'm hurting the set
[Chorus x2: Gumz]
[Gumz:]
When it comes to the game, I survive like the Predator
In it for longevity, come back like a creditor
Got a vendetta, against the cheddar driven game
Imagine this today, mothafucka y'all said it
I've tried to dead it, the shit is a phase
The crave for that down South shit about to change
'Cause Hip-Hop doesn't live in the South
It started in New York; let's bring it back to the house
That Ruth built, with that grimy ass gutter rap
Makes me so mad so I hope I didn't stutter that
I spit the butter rap, fucking weight gainer
After every verse I need a personal trainer
[Chorus x2: Gumz]
[Outro: Gumz]
What? Gumz, mothafucka fire lungs
Nebula on the track, what?
