...The Doll Raven: Narcisco was christened and his mother called him Sising. But when he took a fancy to his mother’s old rag dolls, his father decided to call him Boy. His father has a masculine body, from the low broad forehead and bushy brows to the wide cleft chest. James: We’ll call him, Boy. He is my son, a male, the offspring of a male. A man is fashioned by heredity and environment. I’ve given him enough red for his blood, but a lot of good it will do him with the kind of environment you are giving him. That Doll you gave him- Niqui: I didn’t give him that doll, he happened it upon my aparador when I was clearing it. He took pity on it and drew it out. He asked me to make a dress for it. James: And you made him one, you encourage him to play with it! Raven: Dona Enchay looked at her husband embarrassedly, brushing an imaginary wisp of hair from her forehead, she said: Niqui: I had many cuttings, and I thought I’d make use of them. James: You are such a child yourself, Enchay. You still want to play with dolls.That is why you refuse to cut your son’s hair short! You’ll make a sissy out of him and I will not allow it! Boy! Boy! Boy! (his eyes hardened and pulse ticked under his right ear.) Raven: Don Endong laid his cane on the sill, Dona Enchay moved close to him and passed an arm around his waist. Niqui: The curls will not harm him, Marido. They are so pretty. They make him look like the little boys in the story books. His hair does not make him a girl. He looks...

Robin Hood 1 Table of Contents Executive Summary Introduction Problem Analysis Alternatives Recommendations Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 8 Robin Hood 2 Executive Summary Robin Hood had to hide in the Sherwood Forest after 2 years of insurrection against the High Sheriff of Nottingham. In order to take a stand against the sheriff, Robin Hood needed more allies. He started recruiting men that are willing to serve his cause of justice. The group started to grow larger so Robin Hood established very strict discipline code. He set himself as the supreme ruler and he was the decision taker. However he delegated some tasks to his lieutenants. Will Scarlett was in charge of intelligence and scouting and he had to predict the Sheriff’s next move and get information about rich travelers and tax collectors. Little John was in charge of discipline. Scarlock was in charge of finance and Much Miller was in charge of provisioning the group. The group kept on increasing in size and that created some problems such as food rationing and high cost of supplies and made travelers avoid the forest in order to not get their goods and money seized. Robin thought that...

STEP 2: Say the Apostles' Creed: I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. On the third day He rose again.

...Marian Anderson is remembered as one of the best American contraltos of all time. She was the first African American singer to perform at the White House and also the first African American to sing with New York's Metropolitan Opera. Marian Anderson was born in Philadelphia on Feb. 17, 1902. She never had much money, but she was happy. All of them, her mother, dad, and younger sisters Alyce and Ethel just liked to be together. One thing that may have been different from other childhood is that she loved to sing. She sang in the children's choir at Union Baptist Church. When she turned thirteen, she joined the adult choir too. In high school, she sang in the chorus as well and was educated in the public schools.. Local supporters provided funds for study with Agnes Reifsneider and, later, Giuseppe Boghetti. When Anderson was 23, she entered a competition and won first place over 300 other singers, gaining her an engagement with the New York Philharmonic at Lewisohn Stadium. Further sponsorships enabled her to continue her studies in the United States and, after winning the Rosenwald Fellowship, in Europe. Following debuts in Berlin in 1930 and London in 1932, Anderson concertized in Scandinavia, Germany, South America, and the Soviet Union. In Salzburg, Austria, she gave a sensational performance at the Mozarteum with famous conductor Arturo Toscanini in the audience. Upon hearing her sing, Toscanini reportedly told her she had "a voice heard but once in a century." At the end...

...Ave Maria Frank O’Hara’s “Ave Maria” can be a great voice for mothers depending on the way it is interpreted. The name of the poem itself literally holds a Latin meaning “Hail Mary.” Hail Mary is prayer to the Virgin Mary saluting her to the mother of God which conveys that this poem will reach out to mothers in a serious way. The first time I read this poem through I began to relate. I could relate to almost every part of the poem. Ave Maria can either be a good way of giving advice to a mother or it can be bad. Most will take the literal meaning but from my personal experience the literal meaning may not be the best way to go. O’Hara uses his thoughts, opinion and sarcasm to reach out to the mothers of America. speaks on parenting as a mother and their relationship with their child. Frank O’ Hara speaks on parenting as a mother and their relationship with their child. He began telling mothers to let their children out of the house. He quotes, “Mothers of America/ let your kids go to the movies (lines1&2)!” It’s good to let them get away from you so they won’t have to know what you, as a parent, are always doing. O’ Hara uses the movies as a way to get his point across because that is a common place where kids like to go alone. “When you grow old as grow old you must/ they won’t hate you (lines7&8).” That’s only because they won’t know how it is to be held in. As they’re out the child will feel to be in the best moments of their life. “They will know where candy bars came...

...1. What problems does Robin Hood have? What issues need to be addressed? Robin Hood has a few weaknesses that he needs to deal with currently. The biggest problem that I see is that his strategy for business needs to be re-evaluated. When he first started his quest he was robbing from the rich and giving to the poor. This strategy and vision worked well for Robin Hood when he was able to give to the poor and sustain his men with the money he took from the rich. As the numbers of his men increased he needed more money and goods to sustain them. As this need has arisen so has the difficulty of robbing. His business has changed, as those traveling through the forest were getting smarter and not carrying as much gold and coin. The rich are also taking a different further route around the forest causing Robin Hoods men to have to travel further or miss the travelers all together. Robin Hood also had the problem of his men being resistant to change. They didn’t see the big picture of why the business had to change. Robin Hood should include all of his top men in the decision process of what their new vision should be. This will help aid the men by including their core values into the vision and mission of the group. Robin Hood needs a well-communicated strategic vision. Robin Hood’s strategy must change because of the changing choices his business has taken and adapting to the new conditions around him. Robin Hood needs to make sure that his new strategy becomes a realized...

...Rienz Tolentino ELX101 Blessed Jacinta and Francisco Marto Shepherds of Fatima Jacinta, a six year old girl, and his brother Francisco, who is almost two years older than her, the son and daughter of Peter and Olympia Marto. Lucia dos Santos is their cousin who is nine-years-old. The three were always together. They carried their lunches with them in a pasture land. The three shepherds always pray the Our Father, the Hail Mary, and the Angel of God. After lunch they would recite the rosary together. Jacinta invented that instead of saying the complete prayers, one of the three would call, “Hail Mary!” and the other would answer, “Holy Mary!” They would simply end each decade with the two words “Our Father” One Evening, as they were leading the flocks home, Jacinta dropped behind Lucia and Francisco. “What are you doing?” Lucia asked in surprise as she noticed Jacinta walking in the middle of the sheep. “I want to be like Jesus in that holy picture they gave me”, Jacinta explained, “The picture has Jesus right in the middle of all the sheep. And he`s carrying one of them in his arms”. “No lamp is as beautiful as the Lord`s!” Francisco would declare to Lucia and Jacinta. “I like our Lady`s lamp better,” Jacinta would answer, (This was her name for the moon). “It`s not hot like our Lord`s. It doesn`t burn us,” One day after the three had eaten their lunch, a strong gust of wind rattled the trees and above the olive orchard at the foot of the hill, they saw a white figure...

...Apparition of the Virgin of Guadalupe Supposedly in the year 1531, a poor Indian by the name of Juan Diego witnessed the appearance of the Lady of Guadalupe. This happened not only once or twice, but at least four times. The first document describing the events that happened was written by Nican Mopohua in Nahuatl, the Aztec language. This original document has never been found, however, a copy was made. The document in question is that of Luis Lasso de la Vega, published in 1649. Luis was a 17th century Mexican priest and lawyer. The original document was created in Mexico along with Lasso de la Vega’s copy. The document was created almost 120 years after the events took place. It is based on the sworn testimony of Carlos de Sigeunza y Gongora and not a firsthand account. I strongly believe that the document was created solely to inform and persuade the Aztec Indians. The Spanish, since arriving to South America, had been on a mission to convert the Aztec Indians to Roman Catholicism. The Aztec’s religion was based on sacrifice, the more the better. One can imagine the difficult task of converting one person’s religion much less a whole new group of people. The Aztecs worshiped many Gods, the sun, moon, and planet Venus. Human sacrifice for the gods played a major role in Aztec religion. Roman Catholicism on the other hand worships only one God and does not practice human sacrifice. Considering that the author of this document happens to be a Roman Catholic...

...Case Synopsis 1: Robin Hood Robin Hood and his merry men are now in trouble because wealthy travelers (their source of revenue) are avoiding the forest. As is often common in an entrepreneurial organization, the Merry Men were highly motivated by Robin Hood’s leadership. Therefore, Robin had previously relied on informal communication to organize and implement operations. Robin is pleased with the growing size and influence of his organization. However, growth has meant that specialized duties have begun taking up most of the men’s time, leaving a command vacuum between Robin and the first line recruits. In addition, they are now all located in a large encampment that can be seen for miles. This creates the probability of a surprise attack on their position. Growth has also put great pressures on resources, so now they must harvest the forest more thoroughly. Rich travelers are avoiding the forest, so in desperation Robin is considering robbing the poorer travelers, which means his lieutenants must now tell their men to rob their brothers and fathers. What started as a rebellion has been routinized into banditry. Robin must therefore begin to question the Merry Men’s mission. Should it still be an extension of his private grudges and aspirations? Has the organization acquired a new mission, if so what is it? On whose behalf should the organization formulate its mission! Summary of Discussion Questions 1. What is strategy? 2. What strategic problems does Robin...

...Related Studies Rolando Tolentino (2012), The Virgin of Peñafrancia and South Border claimed that Translacion is a spectacle where in people from the Bicol region led by the church and the government and encouraged further by the media participate with the goal of the formation of a regional unity. In this activity, the image of the Blessed Virgin is carried on their shoulders by a congregation of sunburned and barefooted males known as voyadores from the Basilica to the Naga Cathedral. It is being practiced that those who shall carry the Virgin wear a different color than the other devotees joining the procession. It is also a belief that a woman should not go near the pagoda (where the Virgin stays as it is being carried). In other words, women are not allowed to participate in carrying the image. Also, there is such a belief by the Bicolanos that the presence of a woman near the pagoda indicates a disaster or an accident. The color coding process during the procession is but a screaming evidence of social divisions. Those who are carrying the Virgin on their shoulders wear a different color from the others to show that they are the lucky ones entitled to the privilege of holding the sacred image which many other devotees do not have the benefit to even touch. It also exhibits the idea of a patriarchal society where males dominate the crowd. Moreover, zooming in our gaze to the pagoda only, we already see a clear division. Though males were those privileged to touch and carry...

...expression” (Davalos, 2008, p.14). Community justice was also something that Lopez believed in and it can be seen represented her painting “A Woman's Work is Never Done, 1995.” This poster is recognizing Delores Huerta and other female laborers; it calls them to go against the unsafe working conditions and the unfair wages they receive for working long hours on the fields. It’s important to keep in mind that many of the farm workers were immigrants, this also included women. The bandanas the women wear in this poster can relate to them keeping a low profile as well as protecting them from the pesticides and blazing sun. The low-profile women kept “allows U.S. agricultural industries to benefit from migrant labor while dishonoring wage, labor, and health laws” (Huacuja, 2003, p.105). In this picture, we can see several women who are being less because of their sex and race. In the background, a woman, Delores Huerta, is raising a banner that has the word “Huelga” which was seen in the Farm Worker Rights movement. The women are also wearing the UFW symbol on their clothing. This demonstrates the intersectionality of worker rights and those of women rights within the Chicano movement. Another famous and well-known artist in the Chicana Movement is Alma Lopez. She was “born in Mexico but raised in Los Angeles, Lopez came of age as an artist in the late 1990s, although she witnessed the Chicana/o arts renaissance of the 1960s and 1970s as a child and adolescent” (Latorre, 2008, p.131).

...Marian Anderson was born on February 27, 1897 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She was the daughter of John Berkley Anderson and the former Annie Delilah Rucker. As Marian grew up she became involved in influencing the civil rights movement. Her impact is one that should never be forgotten as it gave another piece in the civil rights puzzle. During World War I and the Korean war, Marian Anderson was employed to entertain troops in the army hospital/bases. In 1943, Anderson was invited to perform in Constitution Hall. Though Anderson had a lovely voice and incredible talent, she was banned from using facilities like D.C. high school auditoriums. Sadly this treatment was not out of the norm for Marian Anderson. After high school, Anderson applied to the all-white Philadelphia Music Academy....
