...Erica Scott Instructor Emily Stallings Communication Skills October 5, 2010 Better Than Store-bought I can relate to many things in Barbara Kingsolver’s book Animal, Vegetable, Miracle since I come from a small town where farming and knowing almost everyone around you is the norm. In chapter 13 Barbara talks about canning tomatoes, which I have had some experience with. In fact, I helped my mom just this past August with her canning. Almost every year around August our kitchen has a distinctive tomato scent that hits you as soon as you walk through the door. The scent fills the whole house and there is not one room that doesn’t have the smell of tomatoes reaching your nose. This year my Paw-Paw brought his homegrown tomatoes down to us to can since we quit gardening a few years ago. I completely agree with Barbara Kingsolver’s statement when she says, “Fresh garden tomatoes are so unbelievably tasty, they ruin us utterly and forever on the insipid imports available in the grocery.” (198). From the first time I tasted a homegrown tomato the taste of a store bought one was never the same. Towards the end of chapter 13 Barbara talks about how to can tomatoes. This is a fairly simple process that went along with how my mom taught me to can. First, you wash the tomatoes. Next, you dip 6 to 8 tomatoes into boiling water for about 30 seconds. Upon taking them out they are to be placed in ice cold water, which peels the skin right off. Then, using a knife, you cut the core out...

Sweat none stop dripped from my face. Even I wipe and wipe still dripping from my face. I felt sorry for one of my partner, I stepped his feet many times. Not bad he didn’t get mad.

They crave for a new cuisine and think of something that can satisfy their taste buds. After all the critical thinking they've been through, they decided to create a homemade Taco. They experimented until they were satisfied with the taco ingredients and proportions. They created a homemade Taco and let their Mexican cuisine to be tasted by their family. Their family liked it so much and told them to sell it to the neighborhood to earn some extra money rather than playing computer all day. After a week, they decided to open a Taco stand near their house called, Taco House in Barangay Moonwalk, Paranaque, Philippines. One year later, they wanted to expand what they have started so they searched out a good location in the right part of the town on a busy main street. They also formulated a new sauce themselves and it would later be their new taco sauce. At the same time, they researched tacos and everything about it. The shells had to be prepared quickly and efficiently. They have to be fried first and stuffed later. They had seen a lot of versions of tacos so they created their very own. They decided to sell the stand and opened a perfected version named Taco Loco. Over the next year, they met James’ aunt, Katherine Espiritu who owned and operated a number of restaurants in Washington DC and helped them built the first Taco...

...Dear……….. My name is Allen-Tams God’s pleasure and I am writing to apply as a dance teacher in ………….. Dance has always been the great love of my life. I have been a dance student since the age of ten. I have been teaching dance for the last three years at private schools, as well as for a major dance team. I have danced competitively, and I have danced as a performance artist. The only thing I consider greater than my love for dance is passing on that love to others. My experience in dance has given me opportunity to acquire skills in various dances such as hip-hop, ballet, African contemporary with specialty in salsa. Salsa is a dance form with origins from the Cuban Son and Afro-Cuban dance (specifically Afro-Cuban). It is generally associated with the salsa music style, although it may be danced under other types of music with an 8-count rhythm. Salsa though a Cuban dance is gradually paving its way into the African world. Through looking at dance as an art form I have realized the potential it has in providing students with a gateway to understanding the world and expressing themselves. Apart from dance being a major form of exercise, I have seen dance help boost the confidence in students, influence their self-concept, enhance their artistic expression and creativity, as well as encourage student autonomy among others. As you learn of my specific experience in dance, training and above all, passion for the art, I am confident you will see that I will prove to be an asset...

... This assignment is to focus on a culture that’s different from my own. It will provide a brief background/history, when and where the event took place, the setting, other observations and my overall reflection. The paper will conclude with how this experience affects my view of diversity in K-20 education. Multicultural Immersion Experience Salsa dancing is an internationally known dance style which originated in Cuba. When African drum rhythms came to the new world through slave trade, the blend of drum rhythms mixed with official Cuban music emerged a variety of sounds and dance moves. A style known as the Cuban son gained a lot of popularity and played a central part of Afro-Cuban music. Radio Broadcasting came to Cuba in 1922 along with Americans seeking to escape prohibition laws. This exposed a large population of westerners to Cuban son and for the first time, Afro-Caribbean music became popular in America. Renamed the Rumba, the music and dancing begin to appear in American salons in the 1930s and is still a popular style today among ballroom dancers. The Rumba in many ways looks like a slower version of salsa. It's got some of the footwork elements, the Cuban hip motion, and arm styling (Articlesbase, 2009). In short, Africans were brought over to Cuba as a result of the slave trade. Their music blended with that of the Cubans and a union between the clave and African drums was now formed. Mambo came along which was brought to America and introduced with...

...Dustin Lee Dr. Shafer ENG 3850 April 29, 2015 Lady Audley’s Secret Lady Audley’s Secret is a sensation fiction novel that also has a play. The novel was published in 1862 and written by Mary Elizabeth Braddon, while the the play came out soon after. The novel begins with the sensation element of marriage and displays many other elements throughout the novel. The play, Lady Audley’s Secret, on the other hand leaves out many characters such as Clara Talboys, Mr. Talboys, Little George, and others because plays have a time constraint so they don’t lose the audiences interest and it also allows the audience to put their focus on the main issue and element at hand which is Lady Audley’s madness. In the novel readers see many elements, elements such as murder, adultery, bigamy, madness, emotions, poverty, marriage, public appeal, family life, mystery, violence, blackmail, arson, and tons of suspenseful action. On the other hand the play does not include all of these elements. The big elements like romance and marriage are almost excluded from the play totally which is a bit different because the readers of the novel are used to seeing these elements having read the novel. The difference in elements composed in the play compared to the novel helps the audience really focus on what element is being magnified and looked at deeply. That element is madness and insanity which Lady Audley holds. Madness in the 19th century and Victorian era was a big and very interesting topic...

...Juan-Carlos Formell y Son Radical at Guantanamera The group Juan-Carlos Formell y Son Radical performed Sunday at Guantanamera, a Cuban restaurant near Columbus Circle. The venue of Guantanamera provided Juan-Carlos Formell y Son Radical with a setting not unlike a typical New York jazz and dinner club; the audience members sat at the bar or a table eating dinner. A trio of musicians made up the band: the Cuban bandleader, Juan-Carlos Formell, played an electric-accoustic guitar and also provided lead vocals; Gustavo Amarante, a Brazilian, played electric bass guitar; and Jesus "Chuito" Quintero, a Venezuelan, on percussion--"Chuito" not only played the congas, but the bongos as well. The instrumentation of congas, bongos, and guitars, derived from both Afro-Cuban and European music traditions suggested the music itself may be son and would also "creatively fuse equal amounts of white- and black-derived musical features" (Manuel 43). Professor Washburne repeatedly mentioned in class the importance of actual Cubans to classifying music as authentic, and although the supporting members of the group were not truly Cuban or even from the Caribbean, Formell's heritage as "truly Cuban" and as the bandleader gave the performance an authenticity that may not exist if Formell was Puerto Rican. Formell seemed to have a unique skin tone, suggesting that he would fall under the classification of "creole" which is defined by Stuart Hall as having the "contemporary...

...Philosophy of hip hop Student’s Name University Affiliation Report on Film ‘From Mambo to Hip Hop’ ‘From Mambo to Hip-Hop: A South Bronx Tale’ is an hour long documentary that narrates a story about the inventive life of the South Bronx, starting with the Puerto Rican immigration and the acceptance of Cuban rhythms to form the New York salsa resonance; enduring with the fires that damaged the neighborhood, but not the innovative spirit of its inhabitants; accounting the ascending of hip-hop from the ruins; and finishing with reflections on the influence of the neighborhood’s songs to make sure that the endurance of a number of generations of its people, and, in the course, take the world’s pop customs by storm. ‘From Mambo to Hip-Hop’ dances all the way through the account of a region that took care of two musical movements: the mambo that developed into salsa and the hip-hop that cropped up from the most distressed days of the South Bronx. Created by Steve Zeitlin and Elena Martinez , who are principals in the New York ‘folklore group City Lore’, and directed by Henry Chalfant, who is a longtime speaker of the South Bronx who worked together on a documentary from the early 1980’s “Style Wars,” “From Mambo” dashes by, driven by tempo that varies through the decades. Mambo and hip-hop are the type of dissolving pot experience that New York stirs and heats. Their ancestry is African, refracted through the Caribbean and the town. In their early stages...

...on one side, commonly made from goatskin. A popular word derived from creole to design this drum was shukbwa, which literally means 'trunk of tree'. In other islands like Guadalupe, this type of hollowed trunk is known as bwa fuyé. If the term "folk music" is taken to mean music genres that have flourished without elite support, and have evolved independently of the commercial mass media, the realm of Puerto Rican folk music would comprise the primarily Hispanic-derived jíbaro music, the Afro-Puerto Rican bomba, and the essentially "creole" plena. As these three genres evolved in Puerto Rico and are unique to that island, they occupy a respected place in island culture, even if they are not currently as popular as contemporary music like salsa or reggaeton. Examples of the folk music found in Puerto Rico are Jibaro, Bomba, and Plena. Jibaro music was made by a group known as Jibaro, who are small farmers of primarily Hispanic descent. They constituted the overwhelming majority of the Puerto Rican population until the mid-twentieth century. This folk music was traditionally celebrated for their self-sufficiency, hospitality,...

...Cuban elements and serves as the foundation for salsa music today. The term ‘Son’ literally means sound and traces its roots back to the 16th century. However, the more contemporary version of the Son did not appear until the late 19th century in Cuba. Historically, the Son played an important role in detailing different news events from the countryside, so its societal function was undoubtedly significant. Although the modern form of the Cuban Son dates back to the mid-19th century, it was not until the early 20th century when the Son was enthusiastically accepted by Cuban society. Prior to this acceptance, the “Danzon” was the most popular type of dance in Cuba and could be found virtually everywhere in Cuba, widely accepted by all social classes. However, the appearance of the Son in Cuba during the early 1900’s quickly overtook the Danzon as the most popular national music. And although the Son had many of the same elements present in the Danzon, it varied distinctly in form and instruments. Nonetheless, the Son’s popularity was clearly defined by the formation and success of the Sexteto Habanero, the many prizes they received, their trips abroad, their recordings, their famous Sons and their participation in many popular films. The Son orchestra was initially composed of only claves, maracas, and guitar but later expanded to include tres and bongos. However, the call-and-response pattern typical of the Cuban son, and now salsa, has remained throughout the dance’s existence...
