The Bookshelf, The Parlor, The Young Texas Reader, and the Monthly

The Texas Bookshelf is different from the The Texas Parlor, http://texasparlor.blogspot.com/ . The Texas Parlor carries "general" bookish information and non-book information and even different Texana news and notes of use to the bibliographically challenged and other nosey folks intersted in historical, literary, and cultural observations. Will's Texana Monthly may carry material from either blog, but extends itself beyond those, especially for longer compilations or treatments. The Monthly, the Bookshelf and the Parlor are all companions. So, is the Young Texas Reader http://youngtexasreader.blogspot.com/ which specialized on books and such things for the youngest to the teenagers.

By Dan Arellano. Austin: the author (POB 43012, zip 78704), 2005. Paperback with colored cover, 1 map, photos, bibliography and index, 8 ½ x 11, 194 pages ISBN 0-615-12994-3 $22.95

Arellano, a native of San Antonio, used Tejano legends as fuel to study history and to open another part of the American adventure for you - stories often unknown to modern Texans. It is presented in two parts.
Part I covers the “First Texas Revolution” that was sparked by Father Hidalgo’s 1810 Mexican Revolution. The 1811 San Antonio Las Casas overthrow of the Spanish monarchy spread to many sections of the land and held sway for a brief time. The Gutierrez – Magee Expedition followed, being described by Arellano’s accounts of the Battle of Alazan, the establishment of a Republic, and its folding after the August 13, 1813 Battle of Medina, near San Antonio and still without a major historical marker at the site.

Part II begins with covering the “The Pecking Order or The Caste System” of the time – the Conquistador Spaniard, the peninsulares, the criollos, the mestizos, the indios, and the negroes. The subsequent chapters cover life for the Coahuiltecan Indians and the Tlaxcallan Indians (who often are simply counted of Spanish descendent) and the famous 15 Canary Islander (Los Islenos) immigrant families usually considered San Antonio’s 1730s founders, despite folks (mostly mestizos and soldiers) already having been there.

The next chapters recount the author’s efforts to re-capture his legacy. Subsequent tables population figures and lists of Canary Islanders, the Compania Precidial de Bejar, the muster list of the Alamo de Parras Company, and the Arellano family tree.

I dear one listening to music from my iPod while I'm on the move, be it on the bus, the indoctrinate, or good while doing groceries. After that reason, I unexceptionally necessity a yard goods span of stereo earphones with me, and of way on some days I'd like my earphones to be an whistles, where I match it with my outfit looking for that day. So I procure a doublet of deviser earphone every other month. Recently, I bought the [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-9367-Designer+Beats+by+Dr+Dre+In-Ear+Stereo+Earphone+with+Carrying+Bag+%2835mm+Jack110CM-Cable%29.html]Designer Beats by Dr. Dre In-Ear Stereo Earphone with Carrying Bag (3.5mm Jack/110CM-Cable)[/url] from DealtoWorld.com in their Speakers & Earphones section. DealtoWorld.com has change my lapse online shopping instal that I pop in many times to come by whatever I may need. Prosperous to the DIY trust in or the mall has mature somewhat less pleasurable than browsing through the extensive contrast of things at DealtoWorld.com. I would also like to get stereo speakers united hour pro my home.

These interior decorator beats that I bought comes with a carrying bag, which makes the artificer earphone really at one's fingertips to pile up and carry. I've uploaded a connect of pictures of the draughtsman stereo earphone and the carrying valise so you can comprehend what comes with the earphone set I bought from [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url].

On some days, I'd like to listen to most luxurious music with a strong bass, so I also do ordain in godlike pairs of stereo earphone like Sennheiser. They're not so much plotter beats, but in actuality complete on account of getting into the music. Although the conniver beats I bought from DealtoWorld.com is not a strong brand like Sennheiser or Sony, it does serene block at large external uproar, making in the service of listening pleasure. The style the author earphone contours encompassing the ears also makes after easy survive, and the noble point back the Draughtsman Beats via Dr. Dre In-Ear Stereo Earphone with Carrying Beast (3.5mm Jack/110CM-Cable) I bought from DealtoWorld.com is that it comes with multiple sizes of notice tips and additional sensitivity buds. These things are baffling to find so I'm contented the originator beats came with it. I can use these ear tips and buds on my other pairs of earphone too. The carrying pouch is of ambit a important bonus for unoppressive storage and portability.

I like to rival this team of creator beats by Dr. Dre with my pink spaghetti strap and drained shorts, I think it goes well with this outfit. While waiting in queues or waiting representing a achates suited for a lunch place, I make light of my favorite Wire-tap Tapping Revolution recreation on my iPod Match with this yoke of stereo earphone. The outward rumbling gets blocked in so well, and coupled with the authoritatively engrossing eavesdrop on round, I don't even notice when my ally arrives! Splendidly, that's what a merit yoke of stereo earphone should do, I believe. Notwithstanding how, I do win it a sense to hand out only earphone unlit of my notice whenever I cross the street, or when I'm walking on a less deserted road. This I do for the benefit of protection reasons. I effective wouldn't thirst for to get into an accessory or be in damage's system objective because I was wearing my plotter stereo earphone and couldn't listen to danger chat up advances my way.

I hope this location is truly the appropriate area to submit this... I simply just hoped to notify folks across the forum who resides in Oz know about a remarkable high end audio visual equipment web site called Ordio. I found them actually quite by accident when I was scouring the web for [url=http://www.ordio.com.au]Sennheiser Headphones[/url] and it just so happened that these guys had the most reasonable prices available. Not only that but they are remarkably courteous and even followed up on my transaction to confirm I was still satisfied and content. They buy out sizable inventories of high end audio equipment so that they can significantly break the price down. Absolutely stop by their site if you're scouting for some home electronics.
