Maria Montoya Martinez was from San Ildefonso Pueblo. Born on an unrecorded date between 1881 and 1887 Maria was the oldest of five sisters. She started learning pottery skills from her aunt, at first just by watching her. At this time, traditional pottery techniques were being lost, but Maria and her family were trying to preserve the culture of art. By the age of seven or eight Martínez was making crude bowls and plates of her own. She received a well rounded education by first attending a government grammar and rudimentary school. Maria and her sister were selected to spend 2 of their formative years at St. Catherine’s Indian School. When Martinez returned home, she quickly achieved economic independence by mastering the craft of pueblo pottery. In 1904 she married Julian Martinez and they worked closely together. She created the pots and her husband painted them. After an archeologist had discovered ancient pottery, Maria and her husband were asked to reconstruct the pottery. After much trial and error, Maria successfully produced a black ware pot. She began developing new designs, shapes, and techniques for black pottery. She won many awards and presented her pottery at many world fairs and received the initial grant for the National Endowment for the Arts to fund a Martinez pottery workshop in 1973. Maria and her husband eventually settled in San Ildefonso, where they raised four sons and one daughter.…

Madison Spence 17 February 2013 Spanish 2312 Professor Elsa Coronado-Salinas Santa Rosa de Lima The country of Peru is home to many holidays and festivals each year. From the New Year’s Day celebration to the Christmas day celebration, Peru has set aside an abundance of days to observe the country’s many historic events. A very popular holiday in the country is Santa Rosa de Lima which takes place each year on August 30. The holiday dates back to the 17th century and celebrates the death of the patroness of Lima, Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa was born on April 20, 1586 by the name of Isabel, but was later nick-named Rosa because of her looks and her rosy cheeks. She spent a majority of her childhood in the small town of Quive, in the hills of Lima. As Rosa grew up, she became extremely religious and started practicing very extreme forms of religion. She grew up to be a very very beautiful woman, but she came to resent her looks. She did everything to ‘undo’ her beauty. She fasted herself, cut her hair, and wore a thorn crown to divert attention away from her beautiful looks and towards God. Rosa wanted to join a monastery but her family was too poor to afford it so she moved away from her family and into a cottage she built herself. Rosa’s days consisted of praying and feeding and caring for the sick and poor people in her town. She sold flowers and needlework to support herself and her family. At the age of 20, Rosa was let into the…
1. The illness is transmitted from one person to another through aerosol droplets. It begins as a mild respiratory infection, progresses to a cough, develops into a paroxysms of cough (whoop) before symptoms wane over weeks to months (duration is typically 6 – 10 weeks). Some symptoms include only sneezing, low fever, and slight cough and then within a several days you develop the whooping. The mechanism is 2) microscopic droplets carrying Bordetella pertussis are inhaled; 2) bacteria hook to cells lining the throat whose hairlike “cilia” sweep away foreign objects; 3) bacteria reproduce and migrate toward ciliated cells of the lungs; 4) bacteria release a toxin that paralyze the cilia and kills cells; 5) toxin released in the lungs spreads throughout the body; 6) Pneumonia may develop if tiny air sacs deep in the lungs become infected.…
I opened my eyes. They felt heavy and my head throbbed. I was covered with beads of sweat. I stood up and the world seemed to turn. I was dizzy. I looked around and saw the unfamiliar view. Where am I? People with colorful costumes and masks were surrounding me. There were parade floats everywhere. Then, puzzle pieces began to form in my head. I was in the carnival.…

Gauchos were important to Argentina during most of the nineteenth century because Argentina was a major export in beef, more specifically longhorn beef. The Gauchos would make a living by herding this wild cattle, using wild horses which was extremely difficult to do. The cowboys did the Argentinian government a favor because they did not have to pay to produce this inferior meat source because the Gauchos did it for them. During the 1830s, the Gauchos’ role in society began to change. This was due to the abolition of slavery in the Caribbean, which was Argentina’s main importer of the longhorn beef. The slaves were the only ones who ate this beef because not only was it cheap and filling, it was found useless among others who could afford…

“Aguantando” means holding on. In the very first paragraph we see how important it is for the narrator, Yunior, to hold on to his father’s memory. Yunior lives with his mother (Mami), grandfather (Abuelo) and brother (Rafa). They live in a house where anything of value, including furniture, food, clothing and even Mami’s Bible is stained from a leaky roof. As a Hispanic male, believe me when I tell you there is nothing more sacred than Mami’s Bible in that home. Yet it is clear how important Papi’s pictures are because they’re always in a plastic sandwich bag to keep them dry. It’s also clear that Papi leaving was the most important event in the family’s history and his absence is the root cause of all the struggles they go through.…
