University of Florida Thesis Or Dissertation Formatting FROM SACRED TO SECULAR: MUSIC, IMMORTALITY, AND SHIFTING VALUES IN SAN PEDRO XICORAS, MEXICO By SALVADOR HERNANDEZ A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF MUSIC UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2017 1 © 2017 Salvador Hernandez 2 To my Parents 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The completion of this thesis would not have been possible had it not been for the incredible hospitality shown to me by the community of San Pedro Xicoras. I extend my deepest gratitude to the community, especially to the village’s governors during 2016 and 2017, for welcoming and assisting me with my research. Furthermore, I extend my thanks to the musicians that allowed me to record them in 2016, the danza coordinators who granted me free reign to enter the church during the danza in 2017, and my informants, for taking the time to personally assist me with my work. Next, I would like to thank my advisors at the University of Florida: Larry Crook, Paul Basler, and Welson Tremura, who also served on my thesis committee. Their instruction and guidance have been instrumental in helping me refine my ideas and develop the skills necessary to approach such a project over the years. I also extend this gratitude to the personnel at the University of Florida, whom have provided numerous resources and an unwavering willingness to provide assistance when asked. The same acknowledgement goes to the College of the Arts and the School of Music, especially to dean Lucinda Lavelli and chair Kevin Orr, who along with my advisors, granted me an assistantship that covered my tuition, along with work experience and a supplementary wage over the five semesters of my enrollment. I would like to thank my relatives in the state of Durango, who assisted me with my preparations for entering the field, and for transporting me to San Pedro Xicoras and back. Finally, I extend my sincerest gratitude to my parents, who have supported me throughout my time in academia, and in all of my endeavors. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

  • High Spatially Sensitive Quantitative Phase Imaging Assisted with Deep
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN High spatially sensitive quantitative phase imaging assisted with deep neural network for classifcation of human spermatozoa under stressed condition Ankit Butola1,2,8, Daria Popova2,3,8, Dilip K. Prasad4, Azeem Ahmad2, Anowarul Habib2, Jean Claude Tinguely2, Purusotam Basnet3,5, Ganesh Acharya5,6, Paramasivam Senthilkumaran7, Dalip Singh Mehta1,7 & Balpreet Singh Ahluwalia2,6* Sperm cell motility and morphology observed under the bright feld microscopy are the only criteria for selecting a particular sperm cell during Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) procedure of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART). Several factors such as oxidative stress, cryopreservation, heat, smoking and alcohol consumption, are negatively associated with the quality of sperm cell and fertilization potential due to the changing of subcellular structures and functions which are overlooked. However, bright feld imaging contrast is insufcient to distinguish tiniest morphological cell features that might infuence the fertilizing ability of sperm cell. We developed a partially spatially coherent digital holographic microscope (PSC-DHM) for quantitative phase imaging (QPI) in order to distinguish normal sperm cells from sperm cells under diferent stress conditions such as cryopreservation, exposure to hydrogen peroxide and ethanol. Phase maps of total 10,163 sperm cells (2,400 control cells, 2,750 spermatozoa after cryopreservation, 2,515 and 2,498 cells under hydrogen peroxide and ethanol respectively) are reconstructed using the data acquired from the PSC-DHM system. Total of seven feedforward deep neural networks (DNN) are employed for the classifcation of the phase maps for normal and stress afected sperm cells. When validated against the test dataset, the DNN provided an average sensitivity, specifcity and accuracy of 85.5%, 94.7% and 85.6%, respectively.

  • Movement, Space, and Identity in a Mexican Body Culture
    societies Article From the Calendar to the Flesh: Movement, Space, and Identity in a Mexican Body Culture George Jennings Cardiff School of Sport and Health Sciences, Cardiff Metropolitan University, Cardiff CF23 6XD, UK; [email protected] Received: 20 July 2018; Accepted: 9 August 2018; Published: 13 August 2018 Abstract: There are numerous ways to theorise about elements of civilisations and societies known as ‘body’, ‘movement’, or ‘physical’ cultures. Inspired by the late Henning Eichberg’s notions of multiple and continually shifting body cultures, this article explores his constant comparative (trialectic) approach via the Mexican martial art, exercise, and human development philosophy—Xilam. Situating Xilam within its historical and political context and within a triad of Mesoamerican, native, and modern martial arts, combat sports, and other physical cultures, I map this complexity through Eichberg’s triadic model of achievement, fitness, and experience sports. I then focus my analysis on the aspects of movement in space as seen in my ethnographic fieldwork in one branch of the Xilam school. Using a bare studio as the setting and my body as principle instrument, I provide an impressionist portrait of what it is like to train in Xilam within a communal dance hall (space) and typical class session of two hours (time) and to form and express warrior identity from it. This article displays the techniques; gestures and bodily symbols that encapsulate the essence of the Xilam body culture, calling for a way to theorise from not just from and on the body but also across body cultures. Keywords: body cultures; comparative analysis; Eichberg; ethnography; games; martial arts; Mexico; physical culture; space; theory 1.

  • Immortality of the Soul (Plat Ōn) and Bodily Resurrection (Paul) — Any Rapprochement?
    IMMORTALITY OF THE SOUL (PLAT ŌN) AND BODILY RESURRECTION (PAUL) — ANY RAPPROCHEMENT? ChrYs C. Caragounis [email protected] ABSTRACT It is a usual assumption among NeW Testament scholars that in his discussion of the resurrec - tion of the dead, Paul holds to the JeWish VieW of the resurrection of the bodY, not to the Hellenic (Platonic) VieW of the immortalitY of the soul. As this question impinges on the question of anthropologY, it is further stated that according to the Hellenic VieW man has a bodY — Which, moreoVer is conceiVed as a tomb of the soul (Orphics) — Whereas accor - ding to the JeWish VieW man is a bodY. A careful inVestigation of the Hellenic and OT-JeWish eVidence shoWs that it is a metho - dological miss to confuse VieWs in Hom ēros and the Orphics With later VieWs in Sokrates and Plat ōn. MoreoVer there neVer Was a “JeWish VieW” of the resurrection. There Were fiVe/siX VieWs. The resurrection of the bodY Was a minoritY VieW. The Pauline teXts shoW that Paul speaks of the resurrection of the dead but neVer of the resurrection of the bodY as Well as that man has a bodY. It is thus intriguing to compare Paul’s VieW of resurrection With Plat ōn’s VieW of the immortalitY of the soul and see hoW far apart theY are from one another. KEY WORDS : First Corinthians, Resurrection (of the bodY), ImmortalitY of the soul. 3 2 1 5 - 1. INTRODUCTION 3 2 . P P , Ernest Best prefaces his discussion of 1 Th 5:23 in his commentarY With 6 1 0 the remark that “To the Greek for Whom the bodY Was the tomb or prison of the 2 ; 1 7 immortal soul its ultimate fate Was unimportant” .

  • Mexico City for Tamales, Tortas and Tacos
    PROOF User: 155273 Time: 13:45 - 09-07-2012 Region: SundayAdvance Edition: 1 4 TR THE NEW YORK TIMES, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2012 LATIN AMERICA CHOICE TABLES Mexico City for Tamales, Tortas and Tacos By JJ GOODE OBERTO SANTIBAÑEZ drove with me to a bakery in Mex- ico City called La Espiga ex- pecting to be disappointed. R Before leaving the city many years ago, he loved the tamales that a man sold on the sidewalk in front of the bakery, and he was hoping that maybe, just maybe, he could get those same ta- males at that spot now. We parked and walked toward the bakery, shuffling between vendors sell- ing fresh juices, deep-fried quesadillas and corn slathered with mayonnaise. In front of the bakery, standing next to two large pots, was a woman selling tama- les. “There!” Mr. Santibañez said, his face brightening. “My tamales!” The vendor, Maria de los Angeles, told us that her 80-year-old father had begun selling tamales at that location in the Hipódromo neighborhood when he was 18. Mr. Santibañez began to suspect that this was the daughter of the vendor who had fed him so well all those years ago. After he tasted the tamales, he was thoroughly convinced. It was just one of the times during our visit that Mr. Santibañez, below, discov- ered that the foods he had so loved in his youth were right where he left them. I had worked with Mr. Santibañez, 48, above, the owner of Fonda restaurant, in Brooklyn and Manhattan, on two cookbooks, “Truly Mexican” and the PHOTOGRAPHS BY DAVID HAGERMAN FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES new “Tacos, Tortas, and Tamales,” but TOP, FROM LEFT At a neighborhood taqueria; blue corn quesadillas at a street stall; grilled corn in Coyoacán.

  • The Science of “Fringe”
    THE SCIENCE OF “FRINGE” EXPLORING: INFLUENZA A SCIENCE OLYMPIAD THEMED LESSON PLAN EPISODE 313: IMMORTALITY Overview: Students will learn about the influenza virus and how it spreads and impacts its host. Grade Level: 9-12 Episode Summary: The alternate universe Fringe team investigates a bioterrorist armed with an insect that has a taste for human flesh. With the help of the CDC, they quickly discover that the insect was thought to be extinct and that a key researcher who previously devoted his life to the bug hasn’t been seen in years. The researcher’s goal was to create a universal vaccine for the flu virus based upon an enzyme extracted from the insect. Related Science Olympiad Event: Microbe Mission - Teams will answer questions, solve problems and analyze data pertaining to microbes. Learning Objectives: Students will understand the following: • Influenza is caused by a family of viruses that spread from host to host via airborne aerosols. • Influenza spreads seasonally around that world and causes hundreds of thousands of deaths each year • New strains of influenza often appear when an existing virus picks up new genes from viruses in other animal species such as birds or pigs. Episode Scenes of Relevance: • Bolivia and Frank discussing the possible flu vaccine (24:17 ‘called Atlanta’ – 25:05 ‘human hosts’) • Bolivia and Dr. Silva discussing his quest for a vaccine (30:50 ‘they’ll thank me’ – 31:50 ‘nearly complete’) © FOX/Science Olympiad, Inc./FringeTM/Warner Brothers Entertainment, Inc.

My approach evaluates comparatively the seven royal mortuary contexts from the city of Copán, Honduras during the Classic period from the early 5th century to early 9th century CE, in order to draw out the ideas that infused the ritual behavior. It is concerned with analyzing the tomb as a ritual context that is a materialization of a community's ideas about death and the afterlife. The heart is the data gathered from my participation in the excavation of the Classic period royal tomb called the Oropéndola Tomb.

    CORRIDO NORTEÑO Y METAL PUNK. ¿Patrimonio musical urbano? Su permanencia en Tijuana y sus transformaciones durante la guerra contra las drogas: 2006-2016. Tesis presentada por Pedro Gilberto Pacheco López. Para obtener el grado de MAESTRO EN ESTUDIOS CULTURALES Tijuana, B. C., México 2016 CONSTANCIA DE APROBACIÓN Director de Tesis: Dr. Miguel Olmos Aguilera. Aprobada por el Jurado Examinador: 1. 2. 3. Obviamente a Gilberto y a Roselia: Mi agradecimiento eterno y mayor cariño. A Tania: Porque tú sacrificio lo llevo en mi corazón. Agradecimientos: Al apoyo económico recibido por CONACYT y a El Colef por la preparación recibida. A Adán y Janet por su amistad y por al apoyo desde el inicio y hasta este último momento que cortaron la luz de mi casa. Los vamos a extrañar. A los músicos que me regalaron su tiempo, que me abrieron sus hogares, y confiaron sus recuerdos: Fernando, Rosy, Ángel, Ramón, Beto, Gerardo, Alejandro, Jorge, Alejandro, Taco y Eduardo. Eta tesis no existiría sin ustedes, los recordaré con gran afecto. Resumen. La presente tesis de investigación se inserta dentro de los debates contemporáneos sobre cultura urbana en la frontera norte de México y se resume en tres grandes premisas: la primera es que el corrido y el metal forman parte de dos estructuras musicales de larga duración y cambio lento cuya permanencia es una forma de patrimonio cultural. Para desarrollar esta premisa se elabora una reconstrucción historiográfica desde la irrupción de los géneros musicales en el siglo XIX, pasando a la apropiación por compositores tijuanenses a mediados del siglo XX, hasta llegar al testimonio de primera mano de los músicos contemporáneos.
