Live in Boston The Success of the Hutchinson in the New England Colony was just astounding, or at the least very lucky. Even thou William Hutchison was very successful and brought a large estate to the New England. In the summer of 1634, the Hutchinson purchased a half-acre lot of land on the Shawmut Peninsula; which is now downtown Boston. They Built a house on a lot of lands and was one of the largest on the peninsula with a timber frame and two stories. (The house would stand up until 1711…
The disagreement in how Che Guevara should be remembered somewhat lies in the ignorance of Che’s political existence in history. Hardt, Rivera-Perez, and Calles- Santillana argue that “Che’s charismatic influence could be rendered useless by revealing large gaps in his life ‘between what he tried to do and what he actually accomplished” (359). This concept is one that is often ignored in pop culture. It is forgotten that Guevara could have influenced history in more than one way. For example,…
As the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay colony, John Winthrop eagerly established his position through his writings, both in “A Model of Christian Charity” in his attempt to induce the colonists to accept their position working for the good of the whole colony and in his journals. Winthrop simply desires that the colonists will work and live in amity, however any opposition to his authority poses a threat he cannot effortlessly overlook. Mary Dyer, the woman addressed by Winthrop in his…
The Carolina Panthers are enjoying their bye week in the best position possible at 4-0. The last time this team was undefeated was 2003; when we made it to the Super Bowl I'd say that is good karma. Many around the league have called us “the worst undefeated team due to the lack of competition we faced early in the year. My response to that is we don't make the schedule and the reality is in any sport anyone can win on any day. I will echo head coach Ron Rivera's sentiments when he said we are…
Are the Falcons overrated? Entering the 2015 season, the Falcons fans had lofty expectancies for the team to go on to the Super Bowl. However, those expectancies were impractical, considering some of the major unsorted complications. When they had only 6 regular season matches left, Atlanta was at 6-4, a record entirely inconsistent with very naïve expectancies. A precise examination of the Falcons’ record last season reveals how overrated they were. The team’s susceptibilities were really…
Given the Cuban history on the prohibition of not just music but literally everything that comes in the way of the ruling of the two leaders of the country since the Cuban Revolution of 1959, the brothers Fidel and Raul Castro, few scholars got interested in the current situation in Cuba when it comes to the reggaeton. Although scholars are not optimists that Cuba can be the next Puerto Rico when it comes to reggaeton or that reggaeton will ever become part of the Cuban culture as it happened…
starter. So what’s the deal with No. 12? Could it be that the Green Bay receivers just aren’t open? Many a color analyst noted during 2015 Packers games that the receivers just couldn’t separate from the opposition’s secondary. This was partly due to the fact…
The Bay of Pigs is a name given to the failed U.S. attempt to end the communist reign in Cuba that occurred right before midnight on April 15, 1961. 1,400 Cuban exiles had been trained in assault landing and guerilla warfare in Guatemala in order to prepare for the attack. The United States government planned to secretly help from above by sending in air support. However, everything went wrong. The attack on the Bay of Pigs was problematic from the start. In fact, the Bay of Pigs was not the…
The story of the life of Celia Cruz is as unique as its impressive talent. Born in Cuba in 1924, Cruz grew up in a poor neighborhood of Havana. As one of fourteen children in the house, some siblings, other cousins, Cruz stood out among them for their ability to sing. She started entering amateur contests from fourteen. Cruz studied at the National Music Conservatoria Havana with a concentration in voice, piano and music theory. Although her father encouraged her to become a teacher, developing…
First, I helped prepare dinner and snacks before the Super Bowl. We had a variety of food from pigs in blankets to guacamole to barbecue chicken wings, some of the classic Super Bowl recipes. I watched the beginning of the game and the halftime show. They called to the field some of the MVPs from past Super Bowl winning teams. Then, Joe Montana flipped the coin and the Panthers chose tails and they won. The funniest commercial, in my opinion, was the T-Mobile commercial with Steve Harvey.…
