El zorro que se hizo el muerto by don juan manuel?

The Fox who played dead. or for literary effect; The Fox who played Possum. Here is the translation of the story taken from another user and edited. It still needs some wo…rk in the first paragraph but the actual story itself of the Fox was modified more consistently. Enjoy One night a fox entered a henhouse. From all the time he was in there pursuing and eating hens he lost track of time. When he realized that it was already dawn and that there were people walking the streets, he quickly developed a plan to save his own life. He went out and lay on the ground, where he remained completely motionless for people to think he was dead. Everyone knew what was going through this. After a while, came by a man who exclaimed: "A fox dead! The hairs on his forehead are good for curing infantile diseases.'' Then out of his bag came a pair of scissors and he started to cut off http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_translation_of_El_zorro_que_se_hizo_el_muerto from the foxes forehead. Later came another man who said: "The hairs of the tail of the Fox are good for curing common colds." Then he cut a little hair of the fox's tail. More people came to say similar things and each time he took away more and more hair. But the fox did not move because he had no doubt that it was better to lose his hair than to lose his life. Finally, after a while, he ran out of hair and was entirely bald. Another man came and said that the nails of a fox were very good for curing headaches. He cut a nail of the fox and he continued playing dead. Then along came another man who said "fox teeth are a great remedy for toothaches so people began pulling tooth after tooth from the foxes mouth but the fox still did not move. Finally came a man who said: "The fox's heart protects against heart disease!" So into his sack he went and out came a knife to out the Foxes heart. Upon hearing what the man had said, the fox realized that he was about to lose his life if he continued playing dead. It was in that moment that he thought it was time to risk everything and he jumped up and began to run to escape and save his life. So, Mr. Earl, you should tell your brother to take the example of the fox. If you think that people want to harm you it is best to try to ignore it and suffer in silence if the damage is not severe. But if these people are threatening to take away your honor or your life, strip you of the http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_translation_of_El_zorro_que_se_hizo_el_muerto where you lives or the lands you have grown, it is preferable to risk everything and fight against them! To the count This seemed good advice. He pulled his notebook to write down the advice and wrote the following verses: Suffer when you can; Fight when you can't. (MORE)

What did Juan Perón do?

With the girls, Perón behaved with utmost propriety, except toward a fourteen year-old, Nelly Rivas. She began helping around the house with chores, then staying overnight, a…nd eventually she moved in with him. It was a scandal, with rumors floating around about orgies. The sight of Perón riding down the avenue on a motor bike with a flock of teenage girls behind him on their motorbikes did not help. Perón's image never recovered. In July 1954 a group of Catholics founded a rival political party. Then Catholics started organizing their own labor union. Perón felt threatened and began making verbal attacks against the priesthood. He accused priests of meddling in politics. He threw some priests in jail, closed Catholic papers and prohibited religious processions. His followers chanted "priests no, Perón yes." Hoping for support from liberals, he had Congress legalize divorce and remove religious instruction from the schools. He granted legitimacy to children born out of wedlock, and he had prostitution legalized. The Church incited mass demonstrations against Perón. The question was asked, "Is it Christ or Perón?" Congress expelled two Argentine priests to Italy, and on June 16, 1955, the Vatican excommunicated those responsible for the expulsion, without naming anyone specifically. On that same day, the Navy and Air Force launched a coup, and airplanes bombed Perón's primary residence. Perón survived, but 350 civilians died in the assault. The Army was opposed to a takeover by the Navy and Airforce and suppressed the coup. Perón's supporters sacked the grand cathedral in Buenos Aires. They destroyed the headquarters of the archdiocese and burned several Catholic churches. Perón denounced these acts and reshuffled his cabinet. In September, a delegation from labor unions offered to provide Perón with the armed workers' militias -- as Evita had planned. The Army's leaders did not want another rival military force. They were fed up with Perón. And in September the armed forces fought each other again, for three days. Four thousand died. Perón took refuge in the Paraguayan embassy where he wrote a goodbye letter to Nelly Rivas, signed Daddy -- the letter never reached her. Then Perón went into exile, first to Paraguay and then to Venezuela. Anti-Perón mobs broke into Perón's several homes, where they found what they believed was too much luxury. (MORE)

Who is Juan Macapagal?

I am a great grandson of Juan Macapagal.The Lacandola of Arayat came from one of the grandchildren of Lakan Dula of Tondo named Dola, who is from San Luis, Pampanga. When she …married, she insisted to use the surname Lacandola for her children to maintain connection with his grandfather from Tondo and partly, to hide from Spanish authorities. She has nine children and one of them married a Spanish mestizo surnamed Reyes. My grandfather used to tell me that we are the descendants of Dola, the grand daughter of Lakan Dula of Tondo. By the way, Dola, according to my grandfather, was jailed by the Spanish authority in her old age allegedly for helping wounded revolutionaries. Don Juan Macapagal, Datu of Arayat, was the great-grandson of the last ruling Lakan Dula (King) of Tondo, Don Carlos.[1] He was given the title Maestre de Campo General of the natives Arayat, Candaba and Apalit for his aid in suppressing the Kapampangan Revolt of 1660.[1] He further aided the Spanish crown in suppressing the Pangasinan Revolt of Don Andres Malong in the same year, and the Ilocano Revolt of 1661. Don Juan Macapagal died in 1683. Don Juan Macapagal is a direct ancestor of Philippine Revolutionary General, Lazaro Macapagal and two former Philippine President Diosdado Macapagal and his daughter, former Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. Don Juan Macapagal occupied the post of juez de sementeras of the town Arayat twice before becoming its governor five times in a row. He was also commissioned by the Spanish crown to conduct the supply of silver from Pangasinan through Zambales. Don Juan Macapagal started out as a corporal of a squad of native soldiers. He later rose to the rank of sargento capitan of the infantry. Fighting under Spanish captain Sebastian Castelu, Macapagal help pacify the northern frontiers of the province of Pampanga, which then extends all the way up north to Cagayan Valley. He was wounded during the suppression of the Chinese uprising in 1639 and in suppressing a minor Kapampangan uprising in 1641. In 1660, he was given the title Maestre de Campo General of the natives Arayat, Candaba and Apalit for his aid in suppressing the Kapampangan Revolt of 1660. Don Juan Macapagal was also one of the few natives of the Philippines to become an encomendero or a feudal lord under the Spanish crown.[1] In order to gain his support suppressing the Ilocano Revolt of 1661, the Spanish crown awarded him an encomienda or a fief that once belonged to ex-Governor General Don Diego Fajardo y Chacon. The fief was worth 500 ducados of tributes of Negritos from the province of Zambales. After the collapse of the Ilocano Revolt and the execution of 133 of its leaders, Macapagal further received the honor of becoming the Maestre de Campo of the Kapampangan Regiment that guarded Fort Santiago. Because of his outstanding career in the service of the Spanish crown, quite rare for a native of the Philippines during that era, the Spanish authorities decided to revive the special rights and privileges offered by the Spanish crown to Don Carlos Lacandola and all his descendants throughout the province of Pampanga. Don Juan Macapagal is a direct paternal ancestor of former Philippine President Diosdado Macapagal the 9th president of the republic and his daughter, Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
