    Throughout the book, Engineers of Victory: The Problem Solvers Who Turned the Tide in the Second World War, by Paul Kennedy, he shows to the reader how the Second World War was won through many different perspectives. These perspectives include; different military strategies that show to the reader how the war was won and how. The main point that Kennedy tries to convey to the reader in my opinion is that World War II was not a general war but rather a saga of different parts coming together to shape into one massive conflict. Kennedy started out in the introductory chapter by describing what the book is going to cover and how it affected the war.…

    On Sunday, June 21st, I went to see the Dallas Symphony Orchestra perform “The Music of John Williams and Hollywood’s Great Composers” at Stonebriar Community Church in Frisco. The concert was held in the church’s worship room at 6:30pm. This was a great place for the DSO to perform because the audience and the orchestra were very close and, in a way, felt more personal. The show included fourteen pieces: “Overture to Captain Blood by Korngold, ‘Tara’ – A Short Poem for Orchestra from Gone with the Wind by Steiner, arr.…

    Nothing is impossible. At some point everything in this world was impossible, until someone broke the barrier to make it all possible. Speaker Mack Ebeling does a wonderful job explaining the barrier he broke when faced with a difficult task, as well as inspiring the audience to challenge anything that is considered impossible. Ebeling, however does not reach this point until the end of his speech. This effect adds a deeper thought process for the audience, letting them think about how he broke the impossible, before he even puts the idea of nothing being impossible in their heads.…

    Throughout my journey for this unit performing arts for educator’s and the listening and responding exercise of The Moldau significant areas that l learnt are the values of arts in education, authentic arts experiences with children’s grow and development, storytelling (Self- concept development) and marking and responding (Dinham, 2014). Is to make] who design the expectations in Australian Curriculum [AC] documents the Arts key ideas for making and responding on how this looks in the art problem-solving 2013, p.7). In contrast to responding includes investigating, answering to, examining and understanding artworks (ACARA, 2013, p. 8). Creating the experience meaning full and purpose to engage the students throughout. I found that the resource materials were meaningful, for example, the link for background history for Bedrich Smetana written piece The Moldau ("Smetana's Fatherland: "The Moldau" - Summary History and Analysis of Smetana's The Moldau - Ma Vlast", 2010).…

    Classical Critters Concert Report On November 5th I attended the Masterworks II Classical Critters Family Concert at the SALT Block in Hickory. It was an orchestral concert in a small auditorium and was mainly for the entertainment of young children. The venue was not very extravagant in size or decor, but for the purpose and the intended audience, it sufficed. Although the atmosphere felt recently renovated, it also had an antique charm that made the audience feel right at home.…

    Summary Of The Krater

    • 1039 Words
    • 5 Pages

    The object discussed in this paper is a two-sided red-figure bell krater – a vessel used for mixing water and wine. Side A depicts Artemis aiming her weapon at a vulnerable Aktaion, who is being torn apart by a pack of dogs. This side is particularly notable because it relates – depending on the version of the myth told – to the Greek idea of hubris, the concept of fate, and the presentation of women in Greek society. Side B depicts the goat god Pan with an erect phallus chasing a young shepherd boy with a statue of a herm (fertility statue of Hermes) in the background on a hill. This side of the krater evokes strong sexual imagery, allowing it to dwell upon the same theme of prey versus predator as the story of Artemis and Aktaion.…

    I was raised on the border between three small towns just south of San Antonio. In my early childhood, I was convinced that my life would mirror that of my parents: graduation, marriage, and children. That sounded like a fine idea to me. Though as I grew bigger, so did my ambitions. Stuck in a world where the arts was represented mostly by a tiny high school marching band, I found a love for music and theatre.…

    Jeremy's Response

    • 1158 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Personally I really enjoyed Jeremy’s message and I believe he did an excellent job of connecting the points made in the book of Joshua to our day and age. He started his talk by sharing a story from his life where things were a little unexpected and this began to lead him into connecting the need to recognize that we serve a God who does things unexpectedly. Then he went into the story of how Joshua had to step into some pretty huge shoes and to fill those he had to trust God. Joshua was Moses’s right hand man, and he knew everything that Moses did, yet even Moses was not a person who was at the top of the list socially. When he explained the problems Moses had, he tied that point to how God even uses unexpected people.…
