Audtion Pieces for NYC--YOU help decide!?

Hi!

Two weeks from now, I'll be heading up to NYC for another stint of auditions for Broadway Musical Theatre.

I have A LOT on my plate right now, and would like some suggestions on pieces to perform for 16-bars.

I have a wide range, but am most comfortable as a mezzo soprano (having performed as Eponine, Fontine, Marguerite St. Just, Elphiba, Lucy, Maria Von Trapp and others).

I refuse to do anything from Les Mis (although I LOVE it), Wicked, or Phantom.

I was thinking the following:

"A New Life"- Jekyll and Hyde

"Hold On"- The Secret Garden"

"I'll Forget You"- The Scarlet Pimpernel



if you have other suggestions, please note them. You also might get a better idea of how I sound from a clip at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmShBKTp4...

or

Thanks so much for all the help!!

Reply:I have a suggestion and you don't have to take it, but I tend to favor this one particular song. Though I haven't auditioned on Broadway (or even in NYC) before, this song is classic and fun.



"Give My Regards to Broadway."

By: George M. Cohan.



I'm not able to listen to your singing right now, but it was just a suggestion.

What do you think of these quirky nature names?

GIRLS

Clematis (Clemmie)

Saffron

Fiore

Posy

Tansy

Astère

Marguerite

Achillea

Ivy

Clemencie





They are mainly flower names in English or different languages.
What do you think of these quirky nature names?
Clematis (Clemmie)-Clemmie's a cute nickname for a baby but i don't think either of them are good for an adult

Saffron-i like it. I knew a little girl with this name and her parents called her Saffy.

Fiore-sound elegant and french. Good.

Posy-It sounds like Pansy which reminds me of the blonde girl from the queens nose. I prefer Pansy to Posy.

Tansy-I love the name but my sis went to school with a girl called Tansy who now pregnant with twin and shes 16 or 17.

Astère-Space age

Marguerite-I don't like it.

Achillea-It would sound nice when said by someone with a sexy european accent.

Ivy-Pretty. Reminds me of a kind hearted, full of energy old lady who is sitting in a conservatory winding flowers through fences.

Clemencie-I don't like it.

Clementine-Orange.
Reply:If you want to plant a flower garden these would all be great flowers to plantl. If you want to name your child and have her not be teased or have her name misprounced for her whole life than don't use any of these. Ivy is a ugly name, Clematis is like clitoris, Posy will be called Pose her whole life, Tansy will be called Teenie Tansy, Marguerite will sound like the drink, Achillea sounds like your achilles tendon, Fiore sounds like fire, Saffron makes me hungry. So sorry no go here.
Reply:I love Tansy!



And as for children being bullied, I partly agree that it is not necessarily because of their name, but I think in some situations it doesn't help. I went to college with a girl called Iona Hoare and she survived!



I also love unusual names, and would like to think that I will chose less common names for my future children, however there are certain names I would not chose due to bullying ammunition....
Reply:Clematis - I dont like this at all

Saffron - I think its a nice name, when I hear it I picture a girl with ginger hair in bunches and freckles :) lol

Fiore - I'm not too keen on this as a name

Posy - as above

Tansy - as above

Astere - how would you pronouce this? I cant really comment as I dont know the pronounciation but the spelling looks nice.

Marguerite - I've never been too sure on this name. I think its okay if the person uses a nickname like Maggie or Marge

Achillea - dont like it. I think "achilles heal" when I hear it!

Ivy - nice and simple. I like it, I think it would suit a longer middle name; e.g. Ivy Alexandra, Ivy Clementine

Clemencie - I dont like it

-



My favourites are Ivy and Saffron
Reply:Clematis (Clemmie) - is awful

Saffron - is pretty but every girl i have ever met called saffron has been a chav.

Fiore - ok

Posy - cute

Tansy - pretty

Astère - nope

Marguerite - pretty, the french for margaret

Achillea - not reallt

Ivy - its ok but sounds a bit old

Clemencie - sounds like a medicine.



clementine is pretty but marguerite is my favourite form you list. how about; violet, lilly, rose or willow instead though.
Reply:Clematis - no, clemmie sounds awful

Saffron - funky, I've actually got a cuz called this.

Fiore - Like it

Posy - sounds like a rag doll

Tansy - nope

Astere - similar to esther but not too bad.

Marguerite - yeah can see it as a name.

IVY - no, its a granny name, conjures up pics of old women.

Clemencie - sounds too much like clementine

Achillea - sounds too much like a tendon
Reply:Clematis and Clemencie sound like diseases..sorry. I don't really like Achillea or Astere. THe reast are ok. Favourite probably Fiore. The others seem kind of old-personish.
Reply:I like Ivy best it's my sister's name :) but I love all the other ones too, especially Fiore and Saffron (reminds me of 'Mellow Yellow').
Reply:Okay, if you're dying for a name that you can nickname Clemmie, then may I recommend Clementine? Clematis sounds like an STD, sorry!! I love Ivy and Marguerite though.

Best Wishes!!
Reply:there are a few here i like



Saffron

Posy

Marguerite



i also like



Daisy

Rose

Lily
Reply:i love Astere,Achillea,Saffron, and Clemencie :D

the names starting with clem sound a bit like STD's



sorry.
Reply:The only suitable ones are Saffron and Ivy.
Reply:Clematis sounds like a lady part. I don't know which one - it just sounds a bit gynaelogical.
Reply:I like:

Clematis (Clemmie)

Marguerite

Clemencie
Reply:The only ones I like are Ivy and Clementine.
Reply:Honestly, the only one I would pick would be Ivy. As far as nature names go, I like Meadow or Willow.
Reply:ivy , marguerite or clementine
Reply:I think the best out of them, in my opinion, is Ivy. My fav nature name is Willow though.
Reply:I personally like this name



Brooke Willow

Tansy is cute too!

A poem for you to consume. Is it OK?

*****

A Circle of Friends

by TD Euwaite



I came here one year ago today

To my dismay, the place was figgen’ crazy

I put in my two cents

And lost ten points…a bad start



I tried philosophy, psychiatry

And all the other maladies

I turned to recipes and trigonometries

But still, no one would talk to me



Race Cars, Gay Bars,

Areoplanes and Ships to Mars

It seemed the harder that I tried

The more I realized, I was a square



Then I came to poetry

A place where girls frolicked

…Some freely

Then the dudes, Todd, Dondi and you

Plastered up some beautiful stuff



I read and watched and listened in

To lessons taught by Cinn-o-min

Then I met a Totem tall

And heard from Paris, a gentle call



I got out some notes from long, long ago

Posted a couple of poems to show

I asked if I’m gentle, tender or sweet

“Oh, Yes!” was the word from dear Marguerite



Then, on a plane, along with Elaine

Game poets from Lisbon, Enid and Maine

A Spitfire flames, Arkansas rain

Again and again, they all joined in

Frazzizco, N’ork, Cabool and Brisbane



Buk with a cluck, Stooge with noodge

Tyler and Skyler and Suffolk’s bug Scrooge

All joined in some with some poetic sploodge…



The Moon and the Son

Guys with big guns

I can’t list them all

From Mary to Shelley

They’re all not too smelly



Now, deep in the mud

In by bright yellow Wellies

They fill up me pipe

And round out me belly



*****
A poem for you to consume. Is it OK?
TD...!



I haven't stopped by in a while.

Great to see you still contributing. This brought back memories of my newbie days where, like your good self, I found a comfortable place in poetry corner.

Tanx for the piece and for the peace. Nice to see that you still got that auld sea shanty'esque allegory going with the pipe filling and yellow wellies.

Must get the finger out and post some recent scribblings.

Tanx...

I so wish I could have been here then! To begin is hard...

To continue and make better is even harder!

We can do it!

I do wish you had remembered me, just a little bit.
Reply:I have consumed this with delight. It was and is delicious. Those who are gone are not forgotten, the path goes both ways.
Reply:It's more a memoir poem than anything else. And I don't feel the love or meaning in it, not really. It feels chopped up and unexplained.
Reply:Oh dear...so many memories. All in one year. I came here on April 1 last year... There was no poetry section yet.
Reply:My heart has consumed it indeed. Beautiful memory and a lot of fun to read.
Reply:TD, done well this assemblage of words.
Reply:I love you too...i miss the chaotic crowd that we once had here. (without fights, hatred, prejudice and trolls that is...)
Reply:"Stooge" with "noodge?" "Shelley" with..."smelly?" Have you no shame, sir? Have the last few tatters of literary competence and common decency been ripped away from the fabric of your life?

P.S. I feel exactly the same way. In only a few short weeks, I honed in on this section as the most rewarding, thanks to the participation of many wise and talented people such as your self. Y/A has become important to me.



One major spelling error here. The correct form is "Noo Yawk."

A clarification for the benefit of the preceding contributor. The conditions of jerkiness and being misunderstood are not mutually exclusive. I can think of one or two shining examples among our coterie. (No names please, that would be chatting.)

Looking for a book ??

ok so i read this book in 7th grade and it was a book that i had to do a book report on and i read the book and it seemed really interesting to me i mean REALLY interesting to me and i dont get into books that much- unless its a lemony snicket book "a series of unfortunate events" but anyways about the book, i dont know what the name of this book is cause i forgot it .lol but i think somewhere in the title was rainy or something it was about this girl and boy who found a connection somewhere in their lives and the girl was involved in this play or something like that -i totally forgot this book- but the girls name im sure was marguerite some like that and the boys name was gilbert i think and there was this part in the book where he had to be somewhere with her and he ended up dying cause of a car accident and if i remember that day in the book it was raining...so please if you have anything about this book the title arthur just tell me ok thanks much !!!!!!

  • Where can i find ebooks of maya angelou?

    Maya Angelou was born on 4 April 1928, as Marguerite Johnson. She knows why the caged bird sings, and is only one of two American poets to write and read an inauguration poem for a president. The other one was Robert Frost for John Kennedy. Happy Birthday to Maya.
    Where can i find ebooks of maya angelou?
    I will repeat what I just told someone else. Ms. Angelou is in the business of selling books. They will not be in public domain until SEVENTY YEARS after her demise. To download books illegally puts the person whose name is on the internet service at your home in danger of getting caught and fined. To steal a book of Ms. Angelou's online is exactly the same as walking into her home and stealing a TV. Both her books and her TV are her possessions. If you cannot afford the books, there are libraries. It is very nice that you wished her happy birthday, and I second you on that, but do NOT steal her books. Pax - C.
    Reply:You do know she was also a prostitute and a madam in a brothel.

    Please help me choose pictures to go for the 4 changes of metamorphosis of a character?

    I have used Eddie from Five People You Meet In Heaven and I need pictures to go with each explanation. Any ideas?? These are the 4 stages:

    Eddie’s first metamorphosis was guilty. When Eddie died and went to heaven, he met the Blue Man. The Blue Man made Eddie feel guilty stating he caused his death by giving him a heart attack. Eddie ran into the street to get a ball and Blue Man swerved not to hit him, but he felt anxious and had a heart attack.



    Eddie’s second metamorphosis was angry. In heaven, Eddie learns that his former Army Captain died after he shot Eddie in the leg to help get out of the fire alive. He was angry because he wanted to save a child he thought he saw in the burning building, but found out the Captain died trying to sacrifice his life to save him and the other soldiers.



    Eddie’s third metamorphosis was relieved. He meets up with Ruby in a diner and she is the person who the pier is named after, Ruby’s Pier. Ruby teaches Eddie to let go of his anger he had for his father and explains to him that his father caught pneumonia by saving Mickey’s life instead of killing him for almost hurting his mother. Eddie realized his father was being loyal to his friend and went and told his father everything is okay now.



    Eddie’s fourth metamorphosis was blissful. He was walking into different wedding receptions and found his deceased wife, Marguerite. They had a long coversation about love. She explained that even when people die, their love doesn’t and that she loved him even after she died because true love is forever.
    Please help me choose pictures to go for the 4 changes of metamorphosis of a character?
    I'm not sure what you are needing. Are you looking for already done paintings depicting things like guilt and bliss, but without Eddie in them? Are you planning on drawing pictures yourself and need a scene? Are you looking for some kind of modern art graphics that express certain emotions? Background colors could be black for guilt, red for anger (with orange and yellow flames), aqua for bliss and peach for relief.

    Ancestry world version, translate a record?

    Clement Dauphinais appears in the World version of ancestry.com, in an 1838 document in Quebec, which appears to name his parents as Francois Dauphinais and ?Marguerite? Cannot make out her last name (Graveline?) or the rest of the text.

    I have the image.. but not subscribed to World version, so cannot link here.. But I very much would appreciate someone looking at this, and translating from French, if possible.

    This find is totally mind boggling. This link is a brick wall for over 25 yrs, that no one could find. The amazing thing is that I didn't post it, but mentioned it in passing in a reply to another question.. with no expectation. Someone not only saw my comment, but FOUND the record we have wanted, for YEARS. It is amazing, for the fact of how a record or fact can come from unexpected places.

    Terry B.. you are an angel, and have thanks from the entire Dolphay family for finding this golden brick. You went above and beyond anything I could have wished.
    Ancestry world version, translate a record?
    Hi Wendy C,

    I am SO glad I could help!



    It's VERY difficult to read that handwriting, but here's my best effort at translation, with uncertainties regarding the handwriting in brackets (my B.A. was in Spanish and French). :o)



    Clement Dauphinais

    The 1st November one thousand eight hundred thirty-eight, we have [etoupagne'? coupagne'?] baptized Clement born [fuer?!-maybe in or outside of?] a legitimate marriage of Francois Dauphinais and Marguerite [Beard? Beaurd? Beaurdreau? Geaurdreau?], godfather Marcel Magnan, godmother Marie Lafrenay, [cleatres?].



    Here's the French version of what I was able to make out, just in case this helps another person's attempt at translation:



    Clement Dauphinais

    Le premier novembre, mil huitcent trent huit, nous [ocure' etoupagne'?] avons baptise' Clement ne' [fuer en?] legitime mariage de Francois Dauphinais et de Marguerite [Beaurdreau?] parrain Marcel Magnan, marraine Marie Lafrenay, [clectres?].



    I did use www.freetranslation.com to try to identify each of the non-surname words in brackets above, and used several varieties of what I thought those letters might be, but that's as far as I got...



    Best of luck in deciphering the rest of that handwriting!



    P.S.: Multiple individual records for Marie Lafrenay and Marcel Magnan in the Quebec area back then...
    Reply:if you type in your search bar "1891 census for stockdale" you should get some interesting results.

    I'm trying to trace my family history too and it can get you stuck at a dead end lots of times. Good luck. Kind regards from the North Coast of the Emerald Isle.
    Reply:That is so wonderful! How exciting! I bet that opened a whole new door.
    Reply:There are a lot of references:

    Here are a few, but I need your email address to send you the jpeg file one of the documents. I can send you the others that are listed for different dates from the same source, but again, I will need your email address.

    No-bake cookie recipe?? One that once set looks and tastes like a normal cookie?

    Ok, I've given up trying to find this Marguerite Patten recipe we had at our house as kids for chocolate and coconut no-bake cookies. But maybe someone has or knows of something similar. I want a no-bake cookie recipe that is chocolate. But all the ones I find are like chocolate pieces rather than cookies. All the ones I'm finding are "Chocolate and Oatmeal cookies" which don't seem to me to resemble cookies at all. They look like hard chocolate crackles.

    Maybe I should just put some coccoa and coconut in a sugar cookie recipe and forget about it :(
    No-bake cookie recipe?? One that once set looks and tastes like a normal cookie?
    No Bake Cookies.



    2 cup sugar

    1/2 cup milk

    1/4 cup butter

    4 tbls unsweetend cocoa



    bring to boil- remove from heat-

    add

    3 cups quick oats

    1/2 tsp vanilla

    2/3 cup peanut butter



    mix and drop on to foil or wax paper



    they are really good we have had this recipe written in a recipe book since i was a little little girl. :)



    I have had them before where someone has changed the oatmeal to coconut but i am not sure if it will work the same with this recipe and I don't think that those are good



    these are also good make with chunky peanut butter instead of creamy.
    Reply:I never knew you could have no bake cookies, is that kind of like rice crispy treats? If So, maybe get a big bowl of Rice Krispies cereal, add little bit of milk, throw in sugar and anything else that you want to get stuck in the goo. Mix together for a while until it gets stiff, and your done (I just made it all up from a TV commercial I saw)
    Reply:These are always a hit. I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for but they're delish.



    1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

    1/3 cup butter

    16 large marshmallows

    1/3 cup creamy peanut butter

    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

    1 cup flaked coconut

    2 cups rolled oats



    Melt chocolate chips, butter, and marshmallows over low heat. Stir until smooth, and remove from heat. Stir in the peanut butter, vanilla, coconut, and oats. Mix thoroughly. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto waxed paper. (I like to add another step here and flatten them and just put one or two peanut butter chips in the middle) Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, or until set.



    Hope these work for you!
    Reply:I made some no bake chocolate/oatmeal cookies last year and they were a hit. I will make them again this year. They were not hard.

  • African Daisy plant not flowering?

    I bought and potted this plant along with two others last weekend. The other two (Gerbera daisies and Marguerite daisies) are growing and flowering well. This plant has not flowered at all and the flowers that were there when I bought it have since dried out and are falling off. What do I need to do for this plant?
    African Daisy plant not flowering?
    Osteospermum bloom, rest, bloom. They like full sun and regular fertilizing (every 2 weeks.) They don't like being crowded - I get the impression you have them in a pot with gerberas and marguerites - prefer being planted in the ground.



    Gerberas are perennial in zone 8. Osteos are annual.
    Reply:Take the plant back to the Nursery it is a naughty plant! African Daisy generally thrive in Las Vegas. Better luck.

    What do i need to eat..?!?
    If you're trying to get into shape that doesn't exactly mean that your going to loose weight. To get into shape you want to tone muscles or gain them. And to tell you the truth i do not believe that you need to loose any weight. Just do some weight training and maybe start jogging and work your way up to running. Do it as often as you can, and eat carbs before you work out (like pasta).
    Reply:carrot stick and celery sticks protein bars and milk
    Reply:DON"T EAT LESS THEN USUAL! Just eat healthier... my sister and I did that and we each lost almost 10 lbs. in two weeks! And I feel ah-mazing!

    Really there is only one story which I enjoyed. But boy, did I ever enjoy it. I believe the vignette is called the pupil. There are three breast sucking scenes in this vignette. One is especially nice with the whole teacher-pupil aspect being played out wonderfully.



    Teacher: Why you silly, they are breasts, and these are nipples, much the same as you suckled when yo were an infant.



    Pupil: And why can't I suckle them today?



    Teacher: Because you have no real need for them now.

    Do You Know Anything About:?
    1. A bélé is a folk song and dance from Dominica, performed most commonly during full moon evenings, or sometimes during funeral wakes (Antillean Creole: lavèyé). It may be the oldest Creole dance from Dominica, and strongly reflects influences from African fertility dances. The term bélé refers to a kind of drum both on Dominica and Martinique.



    All bélé are accompanied by an eponymous drum, the tanbou bélé, along with the tingting (triangle) and chakchak (maracas). Bélés start with a lead vocalist, who is followed by the responsorial chorus (lavwa), then a drummer and dancers. Traditional dances revolve around stylized courtship between a male and female dancer, known as the kavalyé (cavalier) and danm (dam) respectively. The bélé song-dances include the bélé soté, bélé priòrité, bélé djouba, bélé contredanse, bélé rickety and bélé pitjé.



    On modern Dominica the nature isle of the Caribbean, bélé are primarily performed for holidays and other celebrations, such as Easter, Independence Day, Christmas, Jounen Kwéyòl and patron saint festivals held annually in the Parishes of Dominica, especially in the Fèt St.-Pierre and the Fèt St.-Isidore for fishermen and workers respectively.



    The kavalyé and danm take turns dancing. The kavalyé first demonstrates his prowess, then the danm reacts. The kavalyé again courts with the danm, and the both dance in the wildest part of the bélé.



    The name bélé may derive from the French belle aire', or the old French aire (meaning threshing platform), or it may derive from an African word.



    2.



    3. Quadrille is a historic dance performed by four couples in a square formation, a precursor to traditional square dancing. It is also a style of music. A derivative found in the Francophone Lesser Antilles is known in the local Creole as kwadril.



    4. La Rose and La Marguerite are societies on the island of Saint Lucia. Ostensibly based around singing the virtues of the rose and marguerite flowers, the societies are intense rivals, and their membership includes most of the population of the island.



    The Structure of the Societies

    The Roses and the Marguerites are really floral societies into which members of the St. Lucian community divide themselves. Both groups are hierarchically structured with a king and a queen as head of the society and other dignitaries patterned upon the socio-economic structure of colonial society. There are also princes, princesses and other pseudo legal, military and professional personnel, including judges, policemen, nurses, soldiers. The element of role performance or masquerading is evident from this internal structure.



    The Festivals

    Preparations for the festivals begin several months before the actual feast day. August 30th for the "Roses" and October 17th for the "Marguerites". Each group holds "seances". These consist of all night singing and dancing sessions where drinks are sold and games are played.



    The central figure at the "seances" is the "Shatwel" or leadsinger who sustains the spirit and tenor of the entertainment. Most groups have one outstanding "shatwel". They are usually female. On the actual day of the festival all members of the society dress in the finery of their respective roles and march to Church for a service which precedes their parade through the streets before returning to the hall for their feasting or "grande fete"



    Today the flower festivals which are unique to St. Lucia assume a preeminent place in the cultural life and history of the country



    5. Stick fighting is a generic term for martial arts which utilize simple long slender, blunt, hand-held, generally wooden 'sticks' for fighting such as a staff, cane, walking stick, baton or similar.



    Some techniques can also be used with a sturdy umbrella or even a sword in its scabbard, but thicker and/or heavier blunt weapons such as clubs or the mace are outside the scope of 'stick fighting' (since they cannot be wielded with such precision, so sheer force of impact is more important) as are more formed weapons such as the taiaha.



    Although many systems are defensive combat techniques, intended for use if attacked whilst lightly armed, others such as kendo (a Japanese discipline using a bamboo 'sword', the shinai) were developed as safe training methods for dangerous weapons. Whatever their history, many lend themselves to being treated as sports.



    In addition to martial arts specifically devoted to stick fighting, certain other disciplines include it, either in its own right, as in kung fu (various variations are part of the traditional Chinese weapons), or merely as part of a polyvalent training including other weapons and/or bare hand fighting, e.g. using the Kettukari (staff), Cheruvadi or Muchan (a shorter, also straight stick) and otta (curved stick) in Kerala's Kalarippayattu tradition, where these wooden weapons serve as preliminary training before practice of the more dangerous metal weapons.





    6. Hosay or Tadjah is a West Indian street festival, in which multi-colored model mausoleums are paraded, then ritually offered up to the sea, or any body of water. Some contemporary writers equate the multi-colored mausoleums with "mosques." In British Guiana, now Guyana, the festival was called Taziya or creolized into Tadjah in reference to these floats, the most visible and decorative element of this festival. In nineteeenth-century Trinidad newspapers as well as government reports called Hosay the "Coolie Carnival."[1]



    The Hosay celebration is a Caribbean manifestation of the Shia Muslim Remembrance of Muharram in Trinidad and Tobago[2] and Jamaica[3] (where is it spelled Hussay). The name Hosay comes from "Husayn" (also spelled "Hussein", the grandson of Muhammad) who was assassinated by Yazid in Karbala. This marytrdom is commemorated in the festival. In Trinidad and Tobago it is primarily celebrated in Saint James, in northwestern Trinidad and in Cedros in southwestern Trinidad. Recently it has been revived elsewhere.



    In the 1950s, very elaborately decorated models of mosques made of paper and tinsel called "tadjahs" were carried through the streets to the accompaniment of constant drumming. Small fires were lit in the gutters beside the streets over which the drumskins were heated to tighten the drumskins of the tassa. Mock stick fights celebrate the martyrdom of Husayn ibn Ali. The festival lasts three days ending with the throwing of the tadjahs into the sea at sunset on the third day. Although Hosay is a religious event for Shias, all of Trinidad's religious and ethnic communities participate in it, and it has become accepted as part of the national culture.



    The Remembrance of Muharram was brought to the Caribbean by Shia Muslim indentured labourers and other migrant laborers from India. Hindu and Muslim Indians, who emphasized their common culture and celebration over religion, namely from the provinces of Oudh and City of Lucknow, are essential to this story. These people entered Guyana in 1838, and Trinidad after 1845, from colonial India under British auspices (see Indo-Caribbean people). The first observance of Hosay in Trinidad has been traced back to 1854, eleven years after the first indentured laborers arrived from India.



    In the 1880s the British colonial authorities became increasingly concerned about public gatherings, and in 1884 issued an ordinance to prevent the public Hosay commemorations. Thousands of workers, who had spent the year building their tadjahs joined a Hindu named Sookhoo, in petitioning the government to allow the festival per their agreement with the Governor, who was visiting London during this episode. When all appeals were ignored by the Protector of Immigrants, through ignorance of the new July 1884 prohibition, defiance, or both, the tadjahs were taken onto the streets at the appointed time, and in order of the estates. The first estate that took its tadjah onto the street had earned that right over the past months, and in some towns, Hosay went ahead. In Port-of-Spain (St. James) the police did not interfere, but in Mon Repos, San Fernando, on Thursday, October 30, 1884, buckshot was fired into the crowds of women, children and men.. After shots were fired by the police to disperse the procession, 22 "Indians" were killed immediately. Later, 120 were found with injuries, some of whom had run into the cane fields, to hide during the police attack. That day is commonly referred to in Trinidad history as the Muhurram Massacre[4] by Indians and as the Hosay Riots in British and colonial records.



    The North Indian city of Lucknow and the Indian State of Oudh are more important than the Middle East in understanding this Trinidad public celebration. The Caribbean East Indian festival, "Hosay" (or "Muhurram") came to the Americas from India in the early nineteenth century. It remained a pan-Indian phenomenon (meaning crossing religious, racial and lingusitic lines). Hosay reached out to also include other Trinidadians, African and Creoles. The origins of Muhurram in Persia (Iran) are important, but in Trinidad, Guyana and Jamaica, the street festival is broader than a Shi'a Muslim (or sectarian) commemoration of the lives and deaths of Islamic prophet Muhammad's grandsons, Hussein and Hasan. The pious shouting out of these names, "Hussein" and "Hasan" allowed the conflation of the Indian names with that of the festival, but provided a direct connection to these role-models for ordinary (and downtrodden) Trinidadians.



    In Trinidad, Indian Muslims and Hindus, and African co-workers, joined in the street parade that was open to white spectators also. Many revelers and spectators failed to see the spiritual side of this ten-day observan
    Reply:Can't really be sure but all except #6 appear to have something to do Louisiana especially of the 1600-1800s.



    #1-4 are dances. #5 could refer to a little known technique of fighting using gentleman's walking sticks or canes. #7 seems to refer to inheritances.



    This is only a guess.

    Is this considered Christian Music?

    Listen to the sample.
    Is this considered Christian Music?
    Good christian music is an oxymoron. The devil has the lock on awesome music.
    Reply:No, Marguerite is considered crazy.



    If you're looking for good Christian music, you should look for music samples by:



    Brandon Heath

    Third Day

    Jars of Clay

    Nicole Nordeman

    Rebecca St. James

    Stephen Curtis Chapman

    Nicole C. Mullens

    Mary Mary

    This is just a very short list - there are many many good Christian music artists who aren't spreading the kind of craziness this woman did.

    Quad names!!!?

    My friend is having Quad girls and her and her partner want to honour their mothers....



    her mum's name was Margaret and his mum's name was Marguerite....



    they are thinking:

    Margie, Rita, Daisy and Pearl



    or

    Gretel, Rita, Peggy and Maisie



    they don't want two M names or 2 P's...etc.. and no rhyming names, ie. Daisy and Maisie...

    what do you think? and can you suggest any other combos?
    Quad names!!!?
    Wow ... I guess my reaction is that it is lovely to honor their mothers, but they're basically giving their four daughters the exact same name.



    Since multiples share so much already, I would at least give them their own names. That's too cutesy.
    Reply:I don't like any of them. They are all nicknames.

    name them

    Margaret Rose, Anna Marguerite

    Renee Louisa-Great grandmothers name-like

    Deidre the other grandmothers name-maybe Jane

    Or better yet, name them girly first names and middle names as the last names of people to honor.

    Like Rose Thomas Johnson

    Anna Wilson Johnson

    Renee MacGee Johnson.

    Deidre Simms Johnson

    That way you get really girly names, your husband's last name and everyone's family names.

    Quads-omg.
    Reply:Maggie is better than Margie.

    Perla instead of Pearl.

    Maybe Tera (the last four letters of Margaret, backwards)

    Gretel or Greta is adorable.

    Honoring the babies' grandmothers is an awesome idea.

    Maisie and Daisy sound like dog names to me.
    Reply:I like all of the names good picks I like Rita and Margie the best
    Reply:Ayame

    Laylonee

    Britonia

    Rhiamina
    Reply:I see where Margie and Rita come from, but where do Daisy and Pearl come about?



    I would suggest other than these names: Margie, Rita, Terra, and maybe Emma, or Aggie
    Reply:I like Margie, Rita, Daisy and Pearl the best out of all of them, but where did Daisy and Pearl come from? Do they honor somebody's names?
    Reply:How about.....Hannah, Leah, Alexis %26amp; Cara?
    Reply:Pearl, Daisy, Gretal and Maggie.

    I know Maggie wasn't on the list but i think it is nicer than Margie.

    Hope this helps.
    Reply:Congrats to them!!!



    How about using Megan (Meg) to honour Margaret and Sarita or Rita to honour Margerita?



    So possible names ...



    Megan

    Sarita

    Daisy

    Lily

    Rita

    Jasmine

    Iris
    Reply:Daisy, Pearl, Flossie, Maisie (Rita and Margie noooo)
    Reply:You might want to use middle names of your friends moms too.

    Here are some I thought of...



    Maggie

    Meg

    Megan

    Greta

    Aria

    Tera (last mart of Margaret, but backwards)

    Gigi (pronounced GEE gee)

    Mae



    This is all I could think of, tell your friends to maybe used middle names too. So you could have 1 girl named after mom's mom first name, 2nd named after dad's mom's first name, 3rd, mom's mom's middle name, 4th dad's mom's middle name. So if it's like Anne the baby could be Annie or Anna or Annalise.



    I hope this helps.
    Reply:Those names are slightly..outdated...in my opinion. Nice enough, just remind me of old people. What about honoring their mothers by naming a child Meagan? It is related, but not the same. So...Meagan, Rachel, Danielle, and Natalie would be nice. I think that giving them more modern names would help their cause in school.
