  • Soup at the Distinguished Table in Mexico City, 1830-1920
    SOUP AT THE DISTINGUISHED TABLE IN MEXICO CITY, 1830-1920 Nanosh Lucas A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2017 Committee: Amílcar Challú, Committee Co-Chair Franciso Cabanillas, Committee Co-Chair Amy Robinson Timothy Messer-Kruse © 2017 Nanosh Jacob Isadore Joshua Lucas All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Amílcar Challú, Committee Co-Chair Francisco Cabanillas, Committee Co-Chair This thesis uses soup discourse as a vehicle to explore dimensions of class and hierarchies of taste in Mexican cookbooks and newspapers from 1830-1920. It contrasts soups with classic European roots, such as sopa de pan (bread soup), with New World soups, such as sopa de tortilla (tortilla soup) and chilaquiles (toasted tortillas in a soupy sauce made from chiles). I adopt a multi-disciplinary approach, combining quantitative methods in the digital humanities with qualitative techniques in history and literature. To produce this analysis, I draw from Pierre Bourdieu’s work on distinction and social capital, Max Weber’s ideas about modernization and rationalization, and Charles Tilly’s notions of categorical inequality. Results demonstrate that soup plays a part in a complex drama of inclusion and exclusion as people socially construct themselves in print and culinary practice. Elites attempted to define respectable soups by what ingredients they used, and how they prepared, served, and consumed soup. Yet, at the same time, certain soups seemed to defy hierarchical categorization, and that is where this story begins. iv To Lisa and Isadora Lucas. Thank you for your sacrifices.

  • Project # Category
    Project # J0101 Category: Animal Biology - Jr Student: Amy Figueroa Grade: 8 G: F School: South Gate Middle School Title: Anemon-EATS My question is, "How can temperature change affect the eating habits of Actiniaria?" In my experiment, I feed Actiniaria in different seawater temperatures. The temperatures were 7,13, and 22 degrees Celsius. My hypothesis is: If the water temperature is lower than 13°C, the anemones will consume more to maintain their body temperatures. If my hypothesis is supported, this will emphasize the importance of protecting the planet. Global warming is not just warming the Earth but it is causing the Earth to experience extreme temperatures. There is a higher chance of consuming plastic with harmful chemicals that were not intended for digesting if they eat more. With higher water temperatures, body temperatures will also rise, meaning anemones will eat less. The independent variables of my experiment are the water temperatures. The dependent factors are my recorded data points which is how long it takes for them to react to food. All throughout my experiment, I kept the food and timer the same so I could get reliable data. I fed and timed them 50 different times in each water treatment. I saw the anemones react quicker in lower temperatures. This supports my hypothesis. A factor that could have affected my results was that some anemones might have not been hungry. I also observed the anemones had a delayed reaction in the warmest temperature. My experiment can be expanded in many ways but this will provide so much information on the effect of temperature change on the eating habits of Actiniaria.

Missing from the In­ novator was a typewriter, a camera which was the personal property of a student, a light meter, and a tape recorder. Taken from Paul Schranz's office was $1,400.00 worth of cameras and lighting systems. Strangely enough the robbers did not bother personal property of both professorBracken and professor Schranz. Various items were taken from the Dean of CCS office, including a clock. The robbery is not covered by insurance because according to Richard Strutters of the Business Office, "The state does not allow us to insure equipment." The items taken will have to be replaced from the budget somewhere and this willtake some time." Meanwhile the robberyhas hurt the students because they no longer have these items to learn from.

  • WALDEN, and on the DUTY of CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE by Henry
    WALDEN, and ON THE DUTY OF CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE By Henry David Thoreau Walden Economy When I wrote the following pages, or rather the bulk of them, I lived alone, in the woods, a mile from any neighbor, in a house which I had built myself, on the shore of Walden Pond, in Concord, Massachusetts, and earned my living by the labor of my hands only. I lived there two years and two months. At present I am a sojourner in civilized life again. I should not obtrude my affairs so much on the notice of my readers if very particular inquiries had not been made by my townsmen concerning my mode of life, which some would call impertinent, though they do not appear to me at all impertinent, but, considering the circumstances, very natural and pertinent. Some have asked what I got to eat; if I did not feel lonesome; if I was not afraid; and the like. Others have been curious to learn what portion of my income I devoted to charitable purposes; and some, who have large families, how many poor children I maintained. I will therefore ask those of my readers who feel no particular interest in me to pardon me if I undertake to answer some of these questions in this book. In most books, the I, or first person, is omitted; in this it will be retained; that, in respect to egotism, is the main difference. We commonly do not remember that it is, after all, always the first person that is speaking. I should not talk so much about myself if there were anybody else whom I knew as well.

FERNANDEZ Filipino cuisine as we know it today is a multi-layered expression of our culture and history. It has an obvious Malay matrix in the "native" or indigenous foods like sinigang and pinangat and pinais, which bear relationships to food in other Southeast Asian cultures. It has very strong Chinese influences, as we see from everyday food like lumpia, pansit, and mami. The assertive Spanish layer is visible in fiesta food like lechon, relleno, and morcon; and Arab and Indian traces are seen especially in Mindanao. The American layer is manifested in the pies, fried chicken, and sandwiches of today. Is there a French connection, a bridge to French culture, consisting perhaps of gateau le sans rival, petits choux, meringue, and filet mignon? It would seem not, because the sweets came to us as Spanish, through Spain (a recipe in a cookbook prepared by American ladies in Manila in 1922 calls petits choux "Spanish Cakes");' nor do they constitute a large body or a decisive trend.
