The Salon

sons, along with Sarah Itzig, a talented musician and Mendelssohn’s great aunt, obtained his manuscripts and contracted Bach’s work. Meanwhile, Bella Salomon, Mendelssohn’s grandmother, supported Bach’s work “the story of St. Matthew Passion” in her salon. Around the same time, the famous Carl Friedrich Zelter, a skillful and picky schoolmaster type, entertained Bach privately at his home as an amazing composer.…

One thing I picked up while serving in the U.S. Army was the 5 P’s: Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance. That is, whenever possible nothing should be left to chance. Coincidences happen as do chance encounters at the mall, the beauty salon, or maybe even church. According to Ivey, Ivey, and Zalaquett (2014) “Counseling & psychotherapy…have a solid research & scientific base” (p. 7) but counselors are much more than white lab coats. They believe that counseling is as much an art as it is…

“ I was born to be a cosmetologist” When I was a little girl I hated my hair because it was really long and thick, it always caused me headaches. It was close to summer and I was not going to be putting my hair up all the time like in the past years so I decided to explore around the house looking for some scissors. I went drawer to drawer and couldn’t find anything until I went inside my granny’s room and finally found what I was looking for. All I needed to do was to make sure no one was…

Purple cow encompassed the bulk of our readings thus far. My take away: Reinforces: innovation, differentiation, the importance of customer relationships, timing, passion, lessening creativity, networking with the affluent and thinking small. Defies: the theorem of creating a great product (having a great product has been debated in our readings and whether it relates much at all to the success of the company), outdoing a competitor by copying their idea, and asking for permission. Two…

Olympia is a painting by Édouard Manet, first exhibited at the 1865 Paris Salon Manet depicts a nude woman positioned in a similar pose to Titian’s “Venus of Urbino” (1538) – however, instead of painting a goddess, he shows a high class prostitute, making it a mockery. The model, Victorine Meurent, was working at the time the painting was first exhibited, which may have led to a few blushes since a few of the men had likely met her before. The painting depicts a nude white woman lying on a bed…

I chose my career to be a cosmetologist because there is so much art involved. You can be as creative as your client will let you and that makes me happy. I’m a pretty colorful person and I love coming up with my own ideas. Any career has responsibilities but some jobs have different ones than others. If I want to be a hairdresser or do makeup I have to know how to talk to my clients. I have to be able to listen to my client to understand what he or she wants. Treatment has to be recommended…

expectations of women as housewives rather than musicians. Franny still participated in "Sonntagsmusiken" with her brother, which were private concerts performed out of the Mendelssohn home (Fanny, 2010). Many of the works she played and composed at these salon concerts were published under Felix's name, due to popular belief that women could not-and should not-pursue any sort of ornate education outside of their domestic lives (Fanny, 2010). Fanny married painter William Hensel in 1829, and in…

My family came to the United States in 1997. We were living in China Town and had nothing. As a single mom, she was struggling to raise us. I promised to myself that I would repay her somehow. Even though high school life was easy, college life got harder as I advanced further into major specific classes. I didn’t know who I wanted to be or what I wanted to do. Away from my family, I was lost and alone as my student loan started to get larger and larger. Eventually, I graduated in BS Finance…

1. Explain the relationship between the skeletal and muscular systems. So in the simplest terms, the skeletal system (Bones) make it so that way you have structure in you’re not a blob of skin and cartilage, and the muscular system makes it so that way you can get up and move around. The skeletal system provides the framework for your body, while the muscular system consists of soft tissues that support the skeleton. 2. Why is the circulatory system important? Because it circulates the blood in…
