Superman and Me Sherman Alexie
I learned to read with a Superman comic book. Simple enough, I suppose. I cannot recall which particular Superman comic book I read, nor can I remember which villain he fought in that issue. I cannot remember the plot, nor the means by which I obtained the comic book. What I can remember is this: I was 3 years old, a Spokane Indian boy living with his family on the Spokane Indian Reservation in eastern Washington state. We were poor by most standards, but one of my parents usually managed to find some minimum-wage job or another, which made us middle-class by reservation standards. I had a brother and three sisters. We lived on a combination of irregular paychecks, hope, fear and government surplus food.
My father, who is one of the few Indians who went to Catholic school on purpose, was an avid reader of westerns, spy thrillers, murder mysteries, gangster epics, basketball player biographies and anything else he could find. He bought his books by the pound at Dutch's Pawn Shop, Goodwill, Salvation Army and Value Village. When he had extra money, he bought new novels at supermarkets, convenience stores and hospital gift shops. Our house was filled with books. They were stacked in crazy piles in the bathroom, bedrooms and living room. In a fit of unemployment-inspired creative energy, my father built a set of bookshelves and soon filled them with a random assortment of books about the Kennedy assassination, Watergate, the Vietnam War and the entire 23-book series of the Apache westerns. My father loved books, and since I loved my father with an aching devotion, I decided to love books as well.
I can remember picking up my father's books before I could read. The words themselves were mostly foreign, but I still remember the exact moment when I first understood, with a sudden clarity, the purpose of a paragraph. I didn't have the vocabulary to say "paragraph," but I realized that a paragraph was a fence that held words. The words inside a paragraph worked together for a common purpose. They had some specific reason for being inside the same fence. This knowledge delighted me. I began to think of everything in terms of paragraphs. Our reservation was a small paragraph within the United States. My family's house was a paragraph, distinct from the other paragraphs of the LeBrets to the north, the Fords to our south and the Tribal School to the west. Inside our house, each family member existed as a separate paragraph but still had genetics and common experiences to link us. Now, using this

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MICRO

Micro is most likely referring to microtones, which are frequencies between two common notes (for example, a tone in between C and C#). Microtonal music can be produced digitally or could be executed by two instruments which are tuned to slightly different frequencies. This provides a very interesting effect and allows for musical exploration of these different notes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BINARY

Binary form is a musical form that usually involves two sections: A and B. These sections are related in some way and strung together into the same piece, but they are usually in different keys. It is normally structured AB, ending with the B section. This form was more commonly used during the baroque and classical periods of music.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TERNARY

Ternary form is a musical form that involves three sections. The most common structure here is ABA, with an opening section, a middle section, and a closing section. In sonatas, these are referred to as exposition, development, and recapitulation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RONDO

A rondo is a form of music that is based around a theme, and this theme is constantly returned to. This can also happen to multiple themes. It is normally in a 7-part form (ABACABA). This shows that you can have other themes repeated (B is repeated twice, A repeated 4 times). The C section is usually longer and can contain variations on the other themes, but it is normally in a contrasting style.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TWELVE-BAR BLUES

This is one of the most famous chord progressions in blues music. Usually the way this music is performed is a melody is written over the initial 12 bars which is played by a musical group, it is repeated, and then different instruments improvise over those 12 chords, accompanied by the rhythm instruments (piano, drums, bass guitar, etc.). This chord progression usually goes (I, I, I, I, IV, IV, I, I, V, V, I I), where I is the tonic, IV is the subdominant, and V is the dominant).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STROPHIC

Strophic music is music that is the same. For example, singing a nursery rhyme, a religious hymn, or a song like "99 bottles of beer on the wall" is using strophic form because the same melody or musical idea is repeated over and over again with different verses.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THROUGH-COMPOSED

This is the opposite of strophic music. Each verse in this case has a different melody or some sort of variation on it that makes it not the exact same every single time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THEME AND VARIATON

This is a musical form that exposes a theme and then goes through many different variations on that main melody. Different variations include a different key, a different rhythm, there could be lots of ornamentation around it, it could be made a different part (alto, with a new soprano voice), etc. All of these different variations could be combined into one piece.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INTRODUCTION

The introduction is music that comes before the theme or main melody. It could be a single note leading into it, a whole flourish of arpeggios, dramatic chords, scales, or anything to hook you into the piece.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BRIDGE

A bridge is music that serves as a transition between different melodies, ideas, or themes. For example an arpeggio, chromatic scale, or a build up of notes can all serve as a transition. Bridges can be very amazing and grand or they can be very simple.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CODA

A coda is an ending section of a piece. They act as a last hurrah for the piece. They tie up the piece and conclude it. These can have similar elements to a bridge but they lead to the final chord and not another theme, for example.

Certain forms of body art are expressed and interpreted differently by different cultures. Detail a form of body art that has different interpretations in different cultures, and explain why it is interpreted differently.

Answers

In the Sepik tribe in New Guinea scarification is an initiation rite for young men. They slice the mens’ chest, back, and buttocks with a bamboo edge to test their strength and self-discipline. The Sepik tribe believe that crocodiles created the humans, and the scars in their scarification represent teeth marks of the crocodile that “swallowed” the young man during the ceremony. Scarification in the West is growing in popularity, as a way for young people to stand out and be ‘different’.   In some African and Asian cultures a long neck is seen as the ideal of beauty, and to achieve this ideal they use neck rings to stretch their necks. Neck rings are a number of spiral coils that are added on gradually to stretch the neck, and put weight on the shoulder blades to make them deform causing the illusion of a longer neck.Aboriginal body painting or art and personal ornamentation is an ancient tradition which carries deep spiritual significance for the Australian Indigenous People. Their cultural rituals including body painting differ between Aboriginal Tribes and topographic location. It is related to spiritual matters and is very creative in character. The specific designs and motifs used by the Aboriginals reveal their relationships to their family group, social position, tribe, precise ancestors, totemic fauna and tracts of land. There are very strict guidelines to how the body painting and adornment is carried out and an Aboriginal person is not allowed to just use any motives or adornment in their transformation. They must follow traditional, respected patterns. The person adorned with the body paint often takes on the spiritual part of their ancestor dancing, immersed in their character.

Answers

Answer:

Best wood for wood carving should have a fine and robust texture; White Pine is a good wood for beginner carvers because it is soft. White pine also has a soft, straight grain texture, ideal for relief carving, whittling, and carving in the round. While most Pinewoods are so soft that they could only resist force less than 500 pounds, a Radiata Pine Wood can resist up to 710 pounds.

Explanation:

In Fact, For Any Example, Well, for this purpose, the woods of broadleaf forest trees are usually used. Of course, all broadleaf trees are not suitable for carving, as they have a large, heterogeneous texture, like oak or elm. The chosen wood for wood carving should be as knotted and rot-free as possible.
