  • Butch Cassidy Roamed Incognito in Southwest New Mexico
    Nancy Coggeshall I For The New Mexican Hideout in the Gila Butch Cassidy roamed incognito in southwest New Mexico. Hideout in the Gila utch Cassidy’s presence in southwestern New Mexico is barely noted today. Notorious for his successful bank Butch Cassidy roamed and train robberies at the turn of the 20th century, incognito in southwest Cassidy was idealized and idolized as a “gentleman out- New Mexico wilderness Blaw” and leader of the Wild Bunch. He and various members of the • gang worked incognito at the WS Ranch — set between Arizona’s Blue Range and San Carlos Apache Reservation to the west and the Nancy Coggeshall rugged Mogollon Mountains to the east — from February 1899 For The New Mexican until May 1900. Descendants of pioneers and ranchers acquainted with Cassidy tell stories about the man their ancestors knew as “Jim Lowe.” Nancy Thomas grew up hearing from her grandfather Clarence Tipton and others that Cassidy was a “man of his word.” Tipton was the foreman at the WS immediately before Cassidy’s arrival. The ranch sits at the southern end of the Outlaw Trail, a string of accommodating ranches and Wild Bunch hideouts stretching from Montana and the Canadian border into Mexico. The country surrounding the WS Ranch is forbidding; volcanic terrain cleft with precipitously angled, crenelated canyon walls defies access. A “pretty hard layout,” local old-timer Robert Bell told Lou Blachly, whose collection of interviews with pioneers — conducted PROMIENT PLACES - between 1942 and 1953 — are housed at the University of New OUTLAW TRAIL Mexico. What better place to dodge the law? 1.

Out-of-State Visitors : visitors with residence outside of Montana. Methodology Traffic counters and traffic intercepts were used to establish total traffic through Virginia and Nevada City from July 1 through September 30, 1999. Traffic intercepts occurred during three four-day intervals throughout the study period in order to describe the population of vehicles that passed over the traffic counters. Privately-owned vehicles were pulled off the roadway for a brief interview regarding current place of residence, number of adults and youth in the travel group, length of time spent in Virginia and Nevada City, and rental vehicles. In all, 11,696 vehicles were counted during the 12 intercept days.

  • Gunplay Maxwell
    Gunplay Maxwell James Otis Bliss, AKA “Clarence L. Maxwell”, “Gunplay Maxwell” (1860 to August 23, 1909) was a late 19th-century Old West gunfighter and businessman from Boston, Massachusetts. Born the son of a hotel manager (Alfonso Bliss), he received a good education, but in 1875 he was involved in a bar room brawl that resulted in him shooting and killing a friend of his. Maxwell fled to Texas, and later Montana, to avoid being arrested for the murder. While in Montana and working as a cowboy, he began selling his gunman skills during the cattle-sheep wars. He later became involved in a cattle rustling in Wyoming and Utah, resulting in his being arrested and sentenced to 3 years in the Wyoming State Prison in 1893. While in prison, he became associated with Butch Cassidy, and the two were released within a week of one another. It was later said that he attempted to join Cassidy’s gang “The Wild Bunch”, but was rejected. In 1898 he and another man robbed the Springville, Utah bank, taking $3,000. More than 200 posse members pursued them, killing Maxwell’s partner, and capturing Maxwell after a brief shootout. He was taken to the Provo, Utah jail, but never revealed the identity of his partner, but that he was dead. Maxwell was convicted of robbery and was sent to the Utah State Prison. Five years later, after he helped stop a prison escape, his sentence was commuted. He worked as a mine guard and discovered the ozokerite near Colton, Utah and filed a claim, then started the mining company “Utah Ozokerite Company”.

When my research began in 2008, Blizzard reached a record 10 million players. Each of these players entered the world as a character they created by choosing one of two political factions, two genders, ten races and nine classes (Blizzard Entertainment, "New Milestone"). They could also customize their skin color, hair color, hair style and facial features. Any number of these characters can still be found daily exploring the various frontiers where the game is set. During their explorations, players complete quests, discover new lands and fight enemies in various landscapes, such as the snow-covered mountains of Dun Morogh, the Swamp of Sorrows, the rainforests of Stranglethorn Vale and the grassy plains of the Barrens, in order to gain honor, experience and gold. World of Warcraft players start out from one of the world’s major cities, where they can train, buy or sell on the auction house and place items or gold in the bank.

Hanes1 1Pesquisador Autônomo, Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil Abstract: Since the mythic space of the Western helped shape how Americans view themselves, as well as how the world has viewed them, the characterization of Native American, Hispanic, and Anglo interaction warrants closer scrutiny. For a corpus with substantial diachrony, every Western in the National Registry of Films produced between the end of the Second World War and the American Bicentennial (1945-1976), i.e. the cultural apex of the genre, was assessed for the presence of foreign language and interpretation, the relationship between English and social power, and change over time. The analysis showed that although English was universally the language of power, and that the social status of characters could be measured by their fluency, there was a significant presence of foreign language, principally Spanish (63% of the films), with some form of interpretation occurring in half the films. Questions of cultural identity were associated with multilingualism and, although no diachronic pattern could be found in the distribution of foreign language, protagonism for Hispanics and Native Americans did grow over time. A spectrum of narrative/cinematic approaches to foreign language was determined that could be useful for further research on the presentation of foreigners and their language in the dramatic arts. Keywords: Westerns, Hollywood, Multilingualism, Cold War, Revisionism VAYA CON DIOS, KEMOSABE: O ESPAÇO MULTILINGUE DE FAROESTES AMERICANOS DE 1945 A 1976 Resumo: Considerando-se que o espaço mítico do Faroeste ajudou a dar forma ao modo como os norte-americanos veem a si mesmos, e também Esta obra utiliza uma licença Creative Commons CC BY: https://creativecommons.org/lice William F.
