...Danielle Carlson Professor Villeneuve Engl 293 8, March, 2015 A Big Pot of Anxiety: Pictorial Techniques in “Strega Nona” “A pictures worth a thousand words”, is an extremely popular phrase that almost every individual has heard of. This quote is well known due to the accuracy of the statement. When reading any book with illustration, there are many hidden meanings the illustrator uses to help communicate the emotion, theme, or moral of the story. In a way, the picture is telling more stories than one. In the children’s book, “Strega Nona”, an old tale retold and illustrated by Tommie de Paola, we follow an old lady named Strega Nona and her assistant Big Anthony. In the story, Strega Nona has a magic pasta pot that Big Anthony is forbidden to touch. However, when Anthony does not listen and touches the pot, it causes unfortunate problems and tension for him and the people in town. Through the use of pictorial techniques, Paola produces a feeling of anxiety. Shapes in, “Strega Nona” helps convey anxiety. When looking at the photo, the first thing the reader notices is that the picture is in a box. When examining the picture more attentively, the reader can see that all of the characters are placed in that picture box except the pasta. In fact, the pasta is so immense that it protrudes out of the box. The illustrator drew the image like this to show the power of the pasta as well as convey the fear of the people. According to Perry Nodelman, “Characters inside boxes often...

...riot on Bay Street was an important event in the country’s history. It spoke to the growing dissatisfaction of the Bahamas’ black majority with the (very real if relatively mild) system of apartheid that hemmed them in politically, economically and socially. It demonstrated the willingness of the hitherto silent black majority to stand up to their colonial masters and the local ruling white oligarchy. It signaled the beginning of the end of second class citizenship for blacks in the Bahamas. Therefore, this riot continues to occupy a unique place in the Bahamian imagination and has helped to cement Bay Street as the important center in the Bahamas." Quoted from "Bay Street and the 1942 Riot: Social Space and Identity Work in the Bahamas" by Nona Patara Martin and Virgil Henry Storr. The fledgling Bahamas Federation of Labour chose Dr Claudius R. Walker to meet with the Duke of Windsor on behalf of the workers following the riots: "The underlying causes for this social unrest are manifold," he told the ex-king of England. "We are in the majority but we have minority problems. We are poorly housed, poorly fed and poorly educated. Truth to tell, we are the wretched of the earth." What Happened? The crowd of workers, now buttressed by women and children from the black over-the-hill neighborhoods, gathered outside of the government buildings at Public Square. Attorney General Eric Hallinan addressed the workers from the steps of the Colonial Secretary’s office hoping to mollify them...

...The main character in my book Dream On, Amber is an 11 year old girl named Amber. Some other characters that are frequently throughout the story are her Nona, mom, and little sister Bella. There are a few more characters that aren't as important though and are barely talked about. One of the problems Amber is in is trying to avoid a bully, she made a girl at school angry by twisting her brother's arm, the bully's name is Joanne. Joanne tried to throw Amber in a trash can but luckily Amber made it out. I would say Amber is developing a lot, when she first started middle school she was nervous and scared, ands neat freak. But now she works for her Nona cleaning litter trays to get a new phone, and she's made new friends. Ambers little sister Bella is 6 years old, but turning seven. She's a bit of a troublemaker and likes to be silly around Amber....

Di puncak bukit yang paling ujung yakni di bagian barat terdapat sebuah hutan yang benarbenar masih liar dan belum pernah ada manusia berani memasukinya. Hutan ini terkenal menjadi sarang binatang buas, terutama sekali banyak terdapat ular berbisa semacam ular yang berkulit merah dan tidak terdapat di lain bagian dunia akan tetapi yang banyak terdapat di hutan itu, membuat hutan itu dinamakan hutan ular merah. Pada suatu pagi yang sejuk dengan sinar matahari yang cerah terdengarlah suara nyaring dan merdu dari seorang anak perempuan berusia paling banyak enam tahun, anak itu mungil dan cantik sekali dengan sepasang matanya yang bening kocak dan dua kuncir rambutnya yang panjang dan hitam. Tiap kali ia menggerakkan kepalanya, kuncirnya itu menyabet ke kanan ke kiri dan kalau kuncirnya melewati pundak lalu jatuh bergantung di atas pundaknya ke depan, ia tampak lucu dan manis. Sambil memetik bunga-bunga hutan yang beraneka warna, anak ini bernyanyi dengan merdu. Akan tetapi sungguh mengherankan suaranya yang amat merdu itu bcrlawanan sekali dengan kata-kata nyanyiannya yang dapat...

...“Ko te manu kai i te miro, nona te ngahere; Ko te manu kai i te matauranga, nona te ao. The bird that feeds on the miro berry, his is the forest; The bird that feeds on knowledge, his is the world.” The objective of the essay is to give context and validation to the vital role of the Whare Wananga in the survival of our culture and language through continuing education from both a traditional and contemporary perspective. The Whare Wananga has generally been described as a house of learning, although recently it has become associated with tertiary education. Traditionally it was a place where practical skills were taught, based on strongly held esoteric principals moral codes and strict adherence to prescribed rituals, the closest comparative in western institutions is that of a medieval monastery. There is however some disagreement Elsdon Best (1992) and Johannes Anderson (1948) on wether the Whare was actually a physical entity. Best declared that there were no permanent buildings dedicated to teaching and learning, and he believed that the word ‘whare’ was figurative, where others Anderson (1948), Best (1992), Mitchell (1972) Tregar (1904), and Makareri (Maggie Papkura,1938) give physical descriptions of the Whare Wananga and therefore argue the existence of buildings, reserved for teaching and learning, however in the context of this assignment there is no real relevance as to wether it’s existence was physical or figurative, as it is the actual existence and...

...Question 1 (a): Write a detailed account of the Burma Road Riot in Nassau, Bahamas. Riots are thought to be typically chaotic and exhibit herd behavior. This is a form of civil disorder characterized often by what is thought of as disorganized groups lashing out in a sudden and intense rash of violence against authority, property or people. This all brings us down to the Burma Road Riot. What is the Burma Road Riot u may ask? This altercation occurred on the 1st of June 1942 on Bay Street and in the Over-the-hill areas of New Providence, The Bahamas. This event inspired a Bahamian singer “Larry Smith” to sing a song Goin' down Burma Road...ain' ga lick nobody. The name 'Burma Road' had currency because of what went on at the same time on the other side of the world. In Southeast Asia, work was underway on the real Burma Road so that the Allies could move troops and supplies into China to fight the Japanese. It is believed that the riot started because of the growing dissatisfaction of the Bahamas’ black majority. It signaled the end of second-class citizenship for blacks in the Bahamas. At this time, local black workers demonstrated in a chaotic manner against discrimination of wages to pay them. The American workers were paid higher wages than the colored people were. They also had more power. One observer, Oscar Johnson, a tailor on Bay Street, remembers that ‚it was a large crowd of people marching down George Street singing ‘We’ll never let the old Flag Fall’...

...Nona Humdy XBCOM/275 October 16, 2015 Matthew Kosec Persuasion In this paragraph, I will discuss the different approaches of persuasion, and conclude the approaches among speaking with an audience, manager, peer. I also will conclude using persuasive communication with challenging individuals, and open minded people. While communicating with an audience, a person must be able to best present their ideas, and persuade your audience to that your ideas are logic and valid. It is also helpful to remember that each audience is different. When speaking to an audience the speaker must identify specific points of disagreements and agreements, that way it is much easier to focus on your arguments. Using persuasive with a manager, the employee should always plan ahead of time. Before someone sell an idea to their manager, it is very helpful to include backing sources that will help persuade your idea. For an example if an employee wanted a raise, the best way to start to persuade their manager is to start a conversation, and spontaneously mention how high the cost of living is, or mentioning that your current bills may have increased drastically. The persuasion approach with a peer may be less difficult as if you were communicating with an audience or manager. Although, in order to persuade peers, trust and credibility are very important because more than likely if your peer trust you, they will trust your word of being in the best interest. Therefore it may be less...

...Traditional Roman Breviary By the end of the 5th century, the Liturgy of the Hours was composed of seven offices. Of these seven, Compline seems to have been the last to appear, because the 4th century Apostolic Constitutions VIII iv 34 do not mention it in the exhortation "Offer up your prayers in the morning, at the third hour, the sixth, the ninth, the evening, and at cock-crowing".[7] An eighth office, Prime, was added by Benedict of Nursia in the 6th century. These eight are known by the following names, which do not reflect the times of the day at which in the second millennium they were traditionally recited, as shown by the use of the word "noon", derived from Latin (hora) nona,[8][9] to mean midday, not 3 in the afternoon: * Matins (during the night, at midnight with some); also called Vigils or Nocturns or, in monastic usage, the Night Office * Lauds or Dawn Prayer (at Dawn, or 3 a.m.) * Prime or Early Morning Prayer (First Hour = approximately 6 a.m.) * Terce or Mid-Morning Prayer (Third Hour = approximately 9 a.m.) * Sext or Midday Prayer (Sixth Hour = approximately 12 noon) * None or Mid-Afternoon Prayer (Ninth Hour = approximately 3 p.m.) * Vespers or Evening Prayer ("at the lighting of the lamps", generally at 6 p.m.) * Compline or Night Prayer (before retiring, generally at 9 p.m.) This arrangement of the Liturgy of the Hours is attributed to Saint Benedict. However, it is found in Saint John Cassian's Institutes and Conferences...
