He was born on October 8, 1985. In the early 2000s, he left his home of Hawaii for California. He wrote hit songs for popular artists. Then in 2010, he broke out as a singer in his own right. Since then, Mars has had many hit songs. People around the world dance and sing along to his music. Early Life Bruno Mars was born Peter Gene Hernandez in Hawaii. He grew up in a very musical family. His father, Pete, played drums. His mother, Bernadette, was a singer. She moved to Hawaii from the Asian country of the Philippines. Mars got his nickname, "Bruno," while he was still a baby. Mars' family performed in a show together. They played old hit songs and dressed up like famous stars. At the age of 4, he joined the family musical act. He quickly became one of the stars of the show. Move To Los Angeles Mars felt comfortable on stage. It helped that he performed at such a young age, he says. After high school, Mars left Hawaii. He moved to Los Angeles in California. At first, he struggled in the music industry. During this time, Mars first tried songwriting. Career Breakthrough Soon, Mars was writing songs for popular singers. He wrote a song for singer Flo Rida. Mars also helped write a song for singer K'Naan. The song was called "Wavin' Flag." It became the theme song for the 2010 FIFA soccer World Cup. Mars finally broke out as a singer in 2010 with "Nothin' on You." The song was written for the rapper B.o.B. Mars sang on part of it. It instantly changed Bruno Mars into a pop star. Performing At The Grammys In October 2010, Mars put out his first song by himself. It was called "Just the Way You Are." It became another hit. His other songs, "Grenade" and "The Lazy Song," also became popular. Mars was nominated for Grammy Awards in 2012. It is the highest honor for musicians. He did not win any Grammys. Still, he gave quite a performance at the show. His song "Runaway Baby" made the audience dance. Continued Success: "Unorthodox Jukebox" In 2012, Mars released his second album. It was called "Unorthodox Jukebox." The song "Locked Out of Heaven" was the number one song in America for six weeks in a row. Another song, "When I Was Your Man," also hit number one. Later, Mars worked with musician Mark Ronson. They made the dance song "Uptown Funk." It was also a hit around the world. Super Bowl And Beyond In 2013, Mars was chosen to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show. For a performer, this was a huge honor. Mars performed again in February 2016. He performed there with Beyoncé Knowles and Coldplay. Just a week later, Mars and Ronson won a Grammy award for "Uptown Funk." Day 2 Geronimo Leader article Synopsis: Geronimo was a chief of the Apache. He was born in Mexico in 1829. Geronimo led the fight to defend the Apache homeland. The Apache people fought against white settlers and the U.S. Army and Mexican Army. After years of war, Geronimo finally surrendered in 1886. He became famous. But he spent the last 20 years of his life as a prisoner. Early Years Geronimo was born in June 1829 in Mexico. His people believed that young Geronimo swallowed the heart of the first animal he killed. This made him a great hunter. There were around 8,000 people in the Apache tribe. But they had many enemies. The Mexican government wanted Apache lands. Apaches also fought other Native American tribes like the Navajo and Comanche. The Apaches raided the Mexican army when it was on their lands. The Mexican government fought back. The Mexican government gave money to people to kill the Apache. But this did not stop Geronimo. By the age of 17, Geronimo had led four raids against the Mexican army. Around this same time, Geronimo fell in love with a woman named Alope. They married and had three children. Then something terrible happened. Geronimo and his men were out on a trip to trade with another tribe. Mexican soldiers attacked his camp. They killed his mother, wife and his three children. Warrior Leader The killings crushed Geronimo. He set fire to his home and all that belonged to his family. This was the Apache way when family members died. In deep sadness, Geronimo went away to be alone. One night he lay on the ground crying. He heard a voice that said, "No gun will ever kill you. I will take the bullets from the guns of the Mexicans … and I will guide your arrows." Geronimo felt new power and rounded up 200 men. They hunted down the Mexican soldiers who killed his family. Geronimo continued to attack the Mexican government for 10 years. Then his enemy changed. There was a war between Mexico and America. The U.S. won and took over the Apache lands in Mexico. Then, gold was discovered. More settlers and miners rushed into Apache country. Another Apache leader was Cochise. He felt that the Apache tribe could not stop the Americans. So, he ended the 10 year war. Geronimo had to stop fighting. A treaty with the U.S. was signed. The tribe was given land that is now in Arizona. But, just a few years later Cochise died. The U.S. ended the treaty. The Apache tribe was forced to move north. So, white Americans moved back into the area. This angered Geronimo, so he started his attacks again. He was finally defeated in 1877 and sent to an Apache reservation. Four years later he escaped. Over the next five years, Geronimo and a small Apache band fought against the U.S. Army. Newspapers reported their attacks and escapes from the Army that tried to capture them. Geronimo became famous as nearly 5,000 soldiers tried to hunt him down. Finally, in the summer of 1886, he surrendered. Over the next several years Geronimo and his people were first sent to a prison in Florida, then a prison camp in Alabama, and then Fort Sill in Oklahoma. For 27 years they were prisoners of war. Final Years Geronimo became even more famous as a prisoner. Crowds wanted to meet him. In 1905, his life story was published in a book. That same year he met with President Theodore Roosevelt. Geronimo asked if his people could return to Arizona. The president said no. His death came four years later in February 1909. One night he fell from his horse. He lay there in the cold. A friend found him the next morning. He passed away six days later. "I should never have surrendered," Geronimo said on his deathbed. "I should have fought until I was the last man alive." Day 3 Jane Goodall Article Synopsis: Jane Goodall is a famous chimpanzee researcher. She proved that chimpanzees behave much like humans do. Early Life Jane Goodall was born in 1934 in London. When Jane was one year old, her father gave her a stuffed chimpanzee toy. It was named “Jubilee.” Jubilee was the first chimpanzee ever born at the London Zoo. The toy was a huge influence on her. Goodall began observing animals early on. When she was 4, she wanted to know how an egg came out of a hen. She hid inside a small henhouse for hours, waiting to see it happen. As a child, she read The Story of Doctor Dolittle by Hugh Lofting.

Lyrics may contain an ideology and influence listeners. This study aims to conduct a keyword analysis to investigate the materialistic ideology connoted in Bruno Mars’ song lyrics. The corpus of Bruno Mars’ lyrics was compiled from lyrics of 30 Bruno Mars songs in three albums released between 2010 and 2016. The corpus was then compared against the British National Corpus (BNC) to obtain a keyword list. The top 100 keywords were selected based on their statistical values for further analysis. They were classified according to their part of speech, and concordance lines of each keyword were obtained so as to discuss the representation of Bruno Mars’ songs. Materialistic concepts found in the corpus include an emphasis on, or preference for, 49 Vol. 14 No. 2 (2019) luxury objects, brand-name items, a lavish lifestyle, parties, economic power, physical appearance, and objectifying women.

  • The Political Economy of Monetary Institutions an International Organization Reader Edited by William T
    T he Political Economy of Monetary Institutions he Political The Political Economy of Monetary Institutions An International Organization Reader edited by William T. Bernhard, J. Lawrence Broz, and William Roberts Clark Recent analysis by political economists of monetary institution determi- nants in different countries has been limited by the fact that exchange rate regimes and central bank institutions are studied in isolation from each other, without examining how one institution affects the costs and benefits of the other. By contrast, the contributors to this volume analyze the choice of exchange rate regime and level of central bank independence together; the articles (originally published in a special issue of International Organization) constitute a second generation of research on the determi- nants of monetary institutions. The contributors consider both economic and political factors to explain a country’s choice of monetary institutions, and examine the effect of political processes in democracies, including interest group pressure, on the balance between economic and distribu- tional policy. William Bernhard is Associate Professor of Political Science at the The Political University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. J.

  • Chiricahuas Present a Verdant, Forested Island in a Sea of Desert
    Rising steeply from the dry grasslands of southeastern Arizona and southwestern New Mexico, the Chiricahuas present a verdant, forested island in a sea of desert. Many species of trees, shrubs, and flowering herbs clothe steep canyon walls. Shady glens, alive with birds, are sheltered by rows of strange massive spires, turrets, and battlements in this fascinating wonderland of rocks. Story of the rocks-What geological forces created these striking and peculiar pinnacles and balanced rocks? Geolo- gists explain that millions of years ago volcanic activity was extensive throughout this region. A series of explosive eruptions, alternating with periods of inactivity, covered the area with layers of white-hot volcanic ash that welded into rock. Because the eruptions varied in magnitude, the deposits were of different thicknesses. Finally, the eruptions ceased, followed by movements in the earth's crust which slowly lifted and tilted great rock masses to form mountains. The stresses responsible for the movements caused a definite pattern of cracks. Along the vertical cracks and planes of horizontal weakness, ero- sion by weathering and running water began its persistent work. Cracks were widened to form fissures; and fissures grew to breaches. At the same time, under-cutting slowly took place. Gradually the lava masses were cut by millions of ero- sional channels into blocks of myriad sizes and shapes, to be further sculptured by the elements. Shallow canyons became deeper and more rugged as time passed. Weathered rock formed soil, which collected in pockets; and plants thus gained a foothold. Erosion is still going on slowly and persistently among the great pillared cliffs of the monument.

    National Park Service Fort Bowie U.S. Department of the Interior Fort Bowie National Historic Site The Chiricahua Apaches Introduction The origin of the name "Apache" probably stems from the Zuni "apachu". Apaches in fact referred to themselves with variants of "nde", simply meaning "the people". By 1850, Apache culture was a blend of influences from the peoples of the Great Plains, Great Basin, and the Southwest, particularly the Pueblos, and as time progressed—Spanish, Mexican, and the recently arriving American settler. The Apache Tribes Chiricahua speak an Athabaskan language, relating Geronimo was a member of the Bedonkohe, who them to tribes of western Canada.

  • A Brave New World (PDF)
    Dear Reader: In Spring 2005, as part of Cochise College’s 40th anniversary celebration, we published the first installment of Cochise College: A Brave Beginning by retired faculty member Jack Ziegler. Our reason for doing so was to capture for a new generation the founding of Cochise College and to acknowledge the contributions of those who established the College’s foundation of teaching and learning. A second, major watershed event in the life of the College was the establishment of the Sierra Vista Campus. Dr. Ziegler has once again conducted interviews and researched archived news­ paper accounts to create a history of the Sierra Vista Campus. As with the first edition of A Brave Beginning, what follows is intended to be informative and entertaining, capturing not only the recorded events but also the memories of those who were part of expanding Cochise College. Dr. Karen Nicodemus As the community of Sierra Vista celebrates its 50th anniversary, the College takes great pleas­ ure in sharing the establishment of the Cochise College Sierra Vista Campus. Most importantly, as we celebrate the success of our 2006 graduates, we affirm our commitment to providing accessible and affordable higher education throughout Cochise County. For those currently at the College, we look forward to building on the work of those who pio­ neered the Douglas and Sierra Vista campuses through the College’s emerging districtwide master facilities plan. We remain committed to being your “community” college – a place where teaching and learning is the highest priority and where we are creating opportunities and changing lives. Karen A.

  • NORMAN K Denzin Sacagawea's Nickname1, Or the Sacagawea
    NORMAN K DENZIN Sacagawea’s Nickname1, or The Sacagawea Problem The tropical emotion that has created a legendary Sacajawea awaits study...Few others have had so much sentimental fantasy expended on them. A good many men who have written about her...have obviously fallen in love with her. Almost every woman who has written about her has become Sacajawea in her inner reverie (DeVoto, 195, p. 618; see also Waldo, 1978, p. xii). Anyway, what it all comes down to is this: the story of Sacagawea...can be told a lot of different ways (Allen, 1984, p. 4). Many millions of Native American women have lived and died...and yet, until quite recently, only two – Pocahantas and Sacagawea – have left even faint tracings of their personalities on history (McMurtry, 001, p. 155). PROLOGUE 1 THE CAMERA EYE (1) 2: Introduction: Voice 1: Narrator-as-Dramatist This essay3 is a co-performance text, a four-act play – with act one and four presented here – that builds on and extends the performance texts presented in Denzin (004, 005).4 “Sacagawea’s Nickname, or the Sacagawea Problem” enacts a critical cultural politics concerning Native American women and their presence in the Lewis and Clark Journals. It is another telling of how critical race theory and critical pedagogy meet popular history. The revisionist history at hand is the history of Sacagawea and the representation of Native American women in two cultural and symbolic landscapes: the expedition journals, and Montana’s most famous novel, A B Guthrie, Jr.’s mid-century novel (1947), Big Sky (Blew, 1988, p.
