This is a phrase used to start off your day. Similar to "good morning" but without the negative connotations. Words are vibrations that carry meaning, and "morning" sounds too similar to "mourning" while "mourning" has a negative connotation; rising instead has a positive one. You are rising from bed, the sun is rising in the sky. There is no sadness/mourning involved, we are instead grateful for another day.

When you wake up the morning after a regrettable drunken sexual encounter. Usually accompanied by a brutal hangover, a dirty, guilty feeling, and a quick exit from the vicinity.
Adam woke up at 7am, the woman he hooked up with the night before still passed out beside him, though significantly less attractive in the early morning light. He smelled like cigarettes, sweat, and Axe bodyspray, and his mouth tasted like Jagermeister and stale beer. He quickly dressed and scurried out of the woman's apartment, trying his best not to wake her and thus avoiding the need to have the awkward "When are we gonna go out again?" conversation. Adam had indeed executed the perfect Rise and Shame.

1. The best band ever (':
2. A band that are getting way too pupular thanks to guitar hero. Shame on people that claim to be a huge fan when they only know Prayer of the Refugee, and maybe just a couple of other songs.

A sexual position where the woman is on her back and the man is vertical. The man is lifting her by the legs to raise her vagina to his penis. The term "Rising Moon" is appropriate because the woman's ass (the moon) is being lifted (the rising) off the surface she lies on.
"I want to be on my back" she said.
"I want to stay standing" I said.
So she laid back and I lifted her by the legs and entered her. "Rising moon, baby. I got a solution to everything."

It's when a person reacts to a tempting statement or material enticement. Sometimes, it results in the person falling into a trap.

The World's Tallest High-rise building is the Taipei 101 in Taipei, Taiwan. It was just recently completed in 2004 and has now passed the skyscraper that was the long-time holder of the title of the World's Tallest Building: The Sears Tower in Chicago.
