Over us and the calf waiting for the first blow. ("The Bull Calf" line 14-16).
She looked back and saw that the bull, his head lowered, was racing toward her. She remained perfectly still, not in fright, but in a freezing unbelief. She stared at the violent black streak bounding toward her as if she had no sense of distance, as if she could not decide at once what his intention was, and the bull had buried his head in her lap, like a wild tormented lover, before her expression changed. One of his horns sank until it pierced her heart and the other curved around her side and held her in an unbreakable grip.
Bullfighting has been a tradition passed along for many years. It is a sport of baiting and killing bulls spectated by the public in an outdoor arena. But how exactly did Bullfighting begin? Bullfighting originated when the first bullfight was held in honor of King Alfonso VIII's coronation in 1133. It was called a corrida back then. These events eventually became popular for celebrating important events and to test the zeal of noblemen. The bullfight first seen at the coronation in 1133 was popularized in 1726 when Francisco Romero started using a cape and weapons during the event. Some older paintings imply that some type of bullfighting existed before 1133. A wall painting in Crete that dates to 2000 B.C. shows men and women grabbing a bull
Sitting Bull is a Dakota Indian chief, of the Sioux tribes and also is a Warrior, Military Leader. Sitting Bull, born in 1831, Grand River, South Dakota. His parents’ names are, Jumping Bull (father) and (mother) Her-Holy-Door. He was named Jumping badger at birth. Although, he showed a lot bravery, courage of riding, which’d been witnessed by his tribe. Once he returned to his village, jumping bull celebrated a feast for his son. The name (Tatanka Iyotake), in the Lakota language means "Buffalo Bull Sits Down”, which was later shortened to “Sitting Bull”. At the ceremony before the whole tribe, also Sitting Bull's father presented him with an eagle feather to wear in his hair, a warrior's horse, and a hardened buffalo hide to set his son's journey into manhood. During the War in 1862, Sitting Bull's people weren’t involved, were coupled groups of eastern Dakota killed about 800 soldiers in Minnesota. In 1864, two large body of troop’s soldiers under General Alfred Sully attacked their village. The contest took a legal charge that was led by Sitting Bull and driven the Lakota and Dakota people out.
An excited crowd waits expectantly to see the horse, cowboy, and calf burst out of the chute. Within seconds, the cowboy has the calf roped, on the ground, and tied. The action appears effortless. Two wranglers release the calf, and it trots out of the arena, seemingly unharmed. The question remains, are rodeos humane? That does the calf think of all this excitement? Contrary to what many people assume, PRCA (Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association) sanctioned rodeos treat their livestock humanely.
“Furthermore what the crowd honors is the victor, tossing him flowers and gifts, which he gracious returns, it is no mans victory over the animal, for the bull is always defeated; it is man’s victory over ignorance, fear, necessity. Man has made his victory a spectacle, so that it may become a victory of all those watching him and recognizing themselves in it” (Barthes, 2007). This is a very interesting paragraph from ‘bullfighting’ by Barthes. It proposes that bullfighting is never fait because the bulls can never win, and that the joy in the ‘sport’ comes from realization that man is greater that beast. This paper will analyze this paragraph using two opposing books for reference, ‘death in the afternoon’ by Ernest Hemingway and ‘on bullfighting’ by A. L Kennedy.
The media’s attack on pit bulls started when drug dealers were chaining them up using them as a weapon against police. In the media Pit Bulls and portrayed as vicious dogs that attack owners, strangers, and children without warning. There are several other breeds that bite and attack, however you only hear about the pit bulls. For example if on day one a Lab mix bites a child you will see it in the newspaper the following day; day two when a Great Dane bites two adults you will see it on the news the next day; day three a Rottweiler attacks an elderly woman in her backyard and it is aired on all network stations; day four a Pit Bull Terrier bites a mailman and you will hear and see it on every station in the country. This is a good example
Adrenaline pumps through Lane’s veins as he ties his hand to the bull. A prayer escapes his lips, as he nods his head. Life itself flashes before his eyes, and he wonders if he will see the faces of his loved ones again. As the gate swings wide Taken Care Of Business rages, eight seconds seems like eight hours as the bull bucks and spins. Snot, sweat, and saliva from the bull flies through the air. The bell sounds and he jumps off and trips as he tries to get away from the bull, but it's too late to run, by the time he tries to crawl away the bull’s horn pierced Lanes side.
“Raging Bull” is the most brutal and painful portrait of a man I have ever seen. You almost feel sorry for this animal of a wife beater whose sexual inadequacy and paralyzing jealousy drive him past the point of insanity. Jake LaMotta prided himself for not being knocked down in the ring. Even when being crucified by” Sugar” Ray Robinson you wonder why wont this fool just save himself and go down. By the end of the film you begin to get a sense of what was really driving him in the ring. Was it his animal instinct or his immovable pride? No, he was so deeply wounded inside that it hurt far too much to ever let the physical pain stop even for just a second.
We had various poems to read by Langston Hughes this week but I wanted to focus on one in particular by the name of “Mulatto”. Langston Hughes, a poet who wrote during the Harlem Renaissance in New York City. I think a bit of his historical background is important to a poem such as “Mulatto”. Langston Hughes comes from a mixed race background and was raised by his maternal grandmother, a proud African American woman. She instilled in him his pride for his lineage which led him to write.
He earns a future, and in his final stage of transformation becomes a man equal to all. This happens after he marries Pretty Calf and understands their customs and traditions. The captive was like a horse all summer, “...docile bearer of burdens, careful and patient..” Until he earned trust that is.
Along the list of ‘rights movements’, the animal rights movement has its place. Just as the internet has helped further the cause of the protesters of of wall street in the 2000’s and the “Black Lives Matter” movement in 2015, Animal Rights activists has flourished in the readily available spreading of information. Earthlings, an informative documentary on the suffering of animals, has more than half a million views on YouTube alone. Animal suffering stems from regions such as the industry and research and testing. The meat industry is a billion-dollar industry. Not only is it a billion-dollar industry, it’s also slaughters upwards of 10 billion animals a year. In recent years, top poultry producer Tyson has faced

Abuse towards animals is recognized by many in the commercials shown on television, including the Sarah McLaughlin song and the pictures of animals starved and beaten. The commercials are shown quite regularly and give viewers a small look into the world of animal cruelty. What the commercials do not show, however, are the countless cases of people getting away with violence, as well as the hundreds of thousands of animals who did not live to make the commercials. Television, radio, and internet ads often depict and portray the lives of animals living in shelters, and ask the public to donate money each month for the cause. Without a doubt, this is the extent of what many people can say their experience with animal cruelty consists of: pictures and short video clips of half-dead dogs and cats left to die in over-crowded housing.
Fencing is a great activity know worldwide just like reading class I learn in both. A great activity offered by my school is fencing. First, fencing offers me a lot of health benefits for the future.

As can be seen, the great activity offered by my school is the art of fencing.
