  • Wilderness House Literary Review 6/3 Mary Marwitz Sol Y Sombra
    Wilderness House Literary Review 6/3 Mary Marwitz Sol y Sombra: Sun and Shade Raul Rivera, dressed in his traje de luces to take his final exam at Ma- drid’s Escuela de Tauromaquia, struggles to adjust the final pieces of his “suit of lights.” At fourteen he is the youngest of the students graduating from this school that prepares them for the life and art of bullfighting; among its star graduates shines José Cubero, known as “Yiyo” to the affectionate thousands who came to see him master the bulls with his hypnotic eye and lithe, sinuous body movements that drew a taut line from the sand to the sky, his arm and torso and legs one fluid stroke. Quite a goal for young Raul, who has not yet mastered the intricate folds of his parade cape. I watch him with a student’s eye; I am in Madrid to learn about the life and art of writing, with a focus on bullfighting, a far cry from the classes of first-year composition I teach in my regional university back in the U.S., (and where I have taught since Raul was a toddler. I am not the youngest member among my classmates.) This is actually the third time I have returned to school when my life threatened to unravel and leave me unclothed, the third time I have sought its distracting difficulty to test me. With school to shape and focus my energies, I reason that if I can figure out academic solutions, I can learn to sidestep dreadful routines of home, demands of eldercare, limitations of my own age; new challenges allow me to spin away from myself.

  • The HBO Documentary SHOWBIZ KIDS Premieres August 11, Exclusively on HBO
    The HBO documentary SHOWBIZ KIDS premieres August 11, exclusively on HBO MIAMI, FL., - SHOWBIZ KIDS, debuting AUGUST 11, offers an unvarnished look at the high risk, high reward business of working as a child actor in the entertainment industry. The film chronicles the personal and professional price of fame and failure on a child. Those who know the industry best, including several successful child actors and two aspiring hopefuls, unpack their own complicated experiences as they reconcile the hardships they’ve faced and sacrifices they’ve made on their way to finding success in show business. The film will be available on HBO and to stream on HBO GO. SHOWBIZ KIDS is written and directed by former child actor Alex Winter (“Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure,” “Panama Papers”), who relies on the perspectives of many of his peers to explore the complexities of growing up under the glare of Hollywood’s spotlight, refusing to shy away from the more difficult truths about the industry. Winter’s commitment to creating an honest representation of a complicated industry stems from his own childhood in show business, beginning as a child actor on Broadway at the age of ten. "This is a story I’ve been wanting to tell for many years,” said Winter. “Having grown up in the business I've never seen the experiences of a child actor, from their early career through to the transition into adulthood, told from the perspective of those involved. I’m honored that these talented actors trusted me with their very personal stories." Highlighting the shared experiences of prominent former child stars, SHOWBIZ KIDS features a wealth of intimate, revealing interviews with: Henry Thomas, who starred in “E.T.

  • Social Media Reactions and Language Usage When a Robot Stops Operating
    Day 3 Session 4: Perceiving Robots HRI ’20, March 23–26, 2020, Cambridge, United Kingdom Death of a Robot: Social Media Reactions and Language Usage when a Robot Stops Operating Elizabeth J. Carter, Samantha Reig, Xiang Zhi Tan, Gierad Laput, Stephanie Rosenthal, Aaron Steinfeld Carnegie Mellon University Pittsburgh, PA, USA {lizcarter,reig,zhitan,glaput,rosenthal,steinfeld}@cmu.edu ABSTRACT People take to social media to share their thoughts, joys, and sor- rows. A recent popular trend has been to support and mourn people and pets that have died as well as other objects that have sufered catastrophic damage. As several popular robots have been discon- tinued, including the Opportunity Rover, Jibo, and Kuri, we are interested in how language used to mourn these robots compares to that to mourn people, animals, and other objects. We performed a study in which we asked participants to categorize deidentifed Twitter reactions as referencing the death of a person, an animal, a robot, or another object. Most reactions were labeled as being about humans, which suggests that people use similar language to describe feelings for animate and inanimate entities. We used a nat- ural language toolkit to analyze language from a larger set of tweets. A majority of tweets about Opportunity included second-person (“you”) and gendered third-person pronouns (she/he versus it), but terms like “R.I.P” were reserved almost exclusively for humans and Figure 1: 2004 “Self-portrait” of the Opportunity Rover on animals. Our fndings suggest that people verbally mourn robots Mars. Photograph by NASA/JPL-Caltech/Cornell [Public do- similarly to living things, but reserve some language for people.

A bullfight is an event in which a bullfighter on foot or on horseback challenges a numbers of bulls (one each time) in a enclosed area built for this purpose; it’s Corrida de Toros. La Corrida is performed by a TORERO (bullfighter) called bullring or arena who is on foot. All the bullfighters are TOREROS but not all the toreros are “Matador de Toros” or “Diestro”. Matador is a category acquired in a ceremony Bullfighting may be divided into three different kinds, depending on the Torero’s experience, the size of the bull and the use of horses : called “Alternativa”. From this moment onwards he can fight with the red cape and the sword. Each Matador has his own team called cuadrilla which includes 6 members: 2 lancers, 3 flagmen and 1 sword servant.

Built on the largely inaccessible Sabika Hill overlooking the city of Granada, its most distinctive phase began in the 11th century as the qa’lat al-Hamra (Red Fort) of the Ziridian rulers. From the 13th to almost the end of the 15th century the kings of the succeeding Nasrid dynasty embellished the site in a most spectacular fashion. The later Christian additions, although handsome in their own right, are generally thought to clash with the delicate, evocative architecture of the Moors.
