The Shrewdness of Catalina Wanka [In English and Spanish]

The Shrewdness of Catalina Wanka

[Dedicated to the folks in San Jerónimo; and their Mayor]

Advance: It is not my intention to recount the history of the long and weary campaign of the Spanish vs. the Inca Empire, but to summarize the swift and shrewdness of Catalina Wanka, in the following lines; in this sketch that is, if in deed, I may call it that; for the reader will find out, Pizarro's power over Peru during this period of time during the 16th Century, did not persuade Catalina to give up her gold; although it got the head of the Inca King's.

By the mountains surrounding San Jerónimo, Peru [by Huancayo], in the Mantaro Valley, Catalina Wanka had stopped her caravan of llamas carrying her contribution of gold to the Inca King, in Cajamarca; the amount was immense. It would be used to buy the freedom of Atahualpa, the Inca King of Peru, whom had promised his captors a room full of Gold. The caravan stood waiting.

Hernando de Soto, and Riquelme, were playing chess in the early afternoon in Cajamarca, in a room being used to incarcerate the Inca king (as he was being held for ransom). Across the shoulder of Soto, Atahualpa stood: said he, in a whisper "No...the rook!" He had studied the game of chess quite closely these past several months while in captivity, and surprised the few that stood by watching the chess game, as well as surprising the players likewise. As history has recorded, Soto took the Inca king's advice and won the game.

When it came time to vote to let the king live or execute him, it was Riquelme who was the deciding vote that brought the king to his death. Thus, my poem should suite the occasion:

Atahualpa's Game

Sometimes, it's not wise

To share your wisdom

--as did, Atahualpa

(The Inca King) in the

Game of chess; thereafter,

He was condemned to death.

--"Oh!" said Catalina Wanka in grief, still in the Mantaro Valley, beyond the Andes, having just heard of the execution of the king. Thus, bewildered, and downtrodden, she walked back and forth in the little village of San Jerónimo, and mumbled painstakingly, "I have got to hide my gold, for it must not be given to the Spaniards." Oh, no, oh no, she surmised, this could not happen. One might say at this point of the game: why couldn't the Spaniards have waited until the gold arrived, than kill the king, but as you can see, pride comes before destruction, and thus, the Spanish government of the day lost its golden apple.

In any case, it was in the dark of the night, Catalina carrying a lantern, found a location on her property to hide her gold, within the makings of an ancient cavern was discovered, which was decaying; here then, she planted her gold among its roots--hid it deep within its vaults, and swiftly covered the opening up before daybreak. These tunnels which held many vaults, were connecting--that is to say, they transverses South America two-thousand miles, from where she put the gold, to the coast of Brazil, to the Gate of the Sun, at Tiwanaku, all the way back to Macho Picchu, and under the mountains of the Andes.

The Treasure of Catalina Wanka

There, by the lofty mountains fair

Hidden under the earth by Huancayo

In San Jerónimo de Tunan--

Is Catalina's treasure of gold!

Whereupon, the Spaniards killed

Atahualpa, the Inca King--;

Hence, Catalina turned around to seek

And found-her new, sacred ground! ...

And, a glutted steam swept-

This little adobe church

Called San Sebastian-ever since

In the lofty mountains by Huancayo! ...

Thereafter, an adobe church was built on that spot, now called, Saint Sebastian. A ruins that is most beautiful, in its mixed shaded brownish brick adobe colors that sits against the victorious hills beyond its walls in this little village called San Jerónimo that is nestled within.

Spanish Version:

translated by Nancy Penaloza

La Habilidad de Catalina Wanka

[ Dedicado a la gente de San Jerónimo, y su Alcalde]

Avance: No es mi intención relatar la historia de la campaña larga y cansada de los españoles contra el Imperio inca, pero para resumir rápidamente la habilidad de Catalina Wanka, en las líneas siguientes; en este bosquejo es decir si en el caso, puedo llamarlo asì que el lector averiguará, el poder de Pizarro sobre El Perú durante este período del siglo XVI, no consiguió el oro de Catalina sin embargo este consiguiò la cabeza del Rey inca.

Por las montañas que rodean San Jerónimo, Perú [por Huancayo], en el Valle del Mantaro, Catalina Wanka había parado su caravana de llamas llevando su contribución de oro a Cajamarca; la cantidad era inmensa. Esto sería usado para comprar la libertad de Atahualpa, El Rey Inca de Perú, quien había prometido a sus captores un cuarto lleno de Oro. La caravana permanecio esperando.

Hernando de Soto, y Riquelme, jugaban al ajedrez a primera hora de la tarde en Cajamarca, en un espacio del cuarto siendo usado para encarcelar al rey inca (como él estaba siendo detenido para el rescate). ¡A través del hombro de Soto, Atahualpa parado, le dijo en un susurro " No... el rook! " Él había estudiado el juego de ajedrez casi de cerca en estos varios meses pasados mientras estaba en cautiverio, y había sorprendido a los pocos que apoyaron mirando el juego de ajedrez, así como sorprendiò a los jugadores, de la misma manera. Como la historia ha registrado, Soto tomó los consejos del Rey inca, y ganò el juego.

Cuando vino el tiempo para votar, si dejar al rey vivir o ejecutarlo, fuè Riquelme quien tuvo el voto que decidio y trajo al Rey a su muerte.
Así, viene mi poema, que debería la suite, la ocasión:

El Juego de Atahualpa

A veces, no es sabio

Compartir su sabiduría

- como hizo, Atahualpa

( El Rey inca) en el

Juego de ajedrez; a partir de entonces,

Él fue condenado a la muerte.

- ¡" Ah! " dijo Catalina Wanka en la pena, todavía en el Valle Mantaro, más allá de Andes, enseguida que hubo oído de la ejecución del rey. Así, desconcertada, y oprimida, ella anduvo hacia adelante y hacia atrás en el pequeño pueblo de San Jerónimo y masculló minuciosamente, " debo ocultar mi oro, ya que ello no serà dado a los españoles. " Ah, no, ah no, ella conjeturó, esto no podía pasar. Uno podría decir en este punto del juego: por qué no podrían los españoles haber esperado hasta que el oro llegara, que matar al Rey, pero como usted puede ver, el orgullo viene antes de la destrucción, y así, el gobierno español del día perdió su manzana de oro.

En cualquier caso, era en la oscuridad de la noche, Catalina llevando una linterna, encontró una ubicación sobre su propiedad para ocultar su oro, dentro de las dotes de una caverna antigua que fue descubierta, la cual se descomponía; aquí entonces, ella plantó su oro entre lo ocultó de raíces profundamente dentro de sus bóvedas, y rápidamente cubrió la apertura antes del amanecer. Estos túneles que sostuvieron muchas bóvedas, fueron conectadas que es decir, ellos Sudamérica transversal dos mil millas, de donde ella puso el oro, a la costa de Brasil, a la Puerta del Sol, en Tiahuanaco, todo el camino regresando a Macchu Picchu, y bajo las montañas de Andes.

El Tesoro de Catalina Wanka

Allí, por la exposiciòn de montañas altas

Ocultado bajo la tierra por Huancayo

En San Jerónimo de Tunan-

¡Esta el tesoro de oro de Catalina!

Por lo cual, los españoles mataron a

Atahualpa, el Rey inca-;

De ahí, Catalina giró para buscar

¡Y encontrando - su tierra nueva, sagrada! ...

Y, un vapor saciado barriò

Esta pequeña iglesia de adobe

llamado San Sebastián - desde entonces

¡En las montañas altas por Huancayo! ...

A partir de entonces, una iglesia de adobe fue construida en aquel punto, ahora llamado, San Sebastian. Las ruinas que son las más hermosas, en sus colores de adobe y ladrillo surtidos parduzcos protegidos del sol que sientan contra las colinas victoriosas más allá de sus paredes en este pequeño pueblo llamado San Jerónimo que estan recostadas dentro.

How to Use YouTube to Market on a Budget - Online Video Marketing For Your Business

In order to build business awareness and ultimate success, every company must have an online marketing campaign with individual goals for promoting their product or service. Some companies may be trying to promote brand awareness. Others may try to promote a particular product or drive sales to their retail store or website.

YouTube can also be used for other purposes than just sales. You can incorporate YouTube as part of your product or customer support mix, use videos for product training, and even for recruiting and employee communications.

Anything you can say in person or to a group of people, you can say in a video and distribute it via YouTube. Here are a few ways in which YouTube video marketing is most beneficial to add to your business marketing mix:

YouTube For Brand Awareness

Online videos are better at promoting brand awareness than traditional TV ads. A Millward Brown study found that online viewing led to 82% brand awareness and 77% product recall, compared to just 54% brand awareness and 77% product recall, and 18% product recall for similar television ads.

Experts believe this is because online viewers are more engaged and interactive watching videos than passive television viewers are with TV ads.

YouTube For Product Advertising

To promote a product, you want to show the product in your advertising, as Nike did with its clips for Tiempo Ronaldinho shoes. You can show the product in action or used as part of a demonstration or tutorial. Make sure you include plenty of close-up product shots and links back to your own website-where more product information is available.

YouTube For Retail Promotion

Promote your companys' retail store. These videos can be general in nature ( which gives the videos a long shelf life), or more specifically targeted to short-term promotions i.e. "check out this weekend's specials!"
Make the video informative, and you stand a better chance of grabbing eyeballs.

YouTube For Direct Sales

Show the product in action or provide a clip of the service in question, and then ask for the sale by directing the viewer to your website. One of the best ways is to showcase the product in an instructional video - the online equivalent of an "old-school" informercial.

The key to converting eyeballs to dollars is to generously highlight your company's website address or 1-800 number within the body of the video. Put the contact information at the front of the video, at the end of the video, and overlaid at the bottom of the screen during the body of the clip. Make sure it's easy for interested viewers to find out more information about your product or place an order.

YouTube For Product Support

YouTube is not only for generating new business, it can also be used to support your existing customer base. Consider some of the most common customer problems and questions, and produce one or more videos addressing those issues. If you can help you customers help themselves, you provide them with a useful service and reduce your company's support costs - all with a free video.

For example: if you record a short video demonstrating how to put one of your racks together and post that video to YouTube, you can direct your customers to that video if they have problems. For that matter, you can embed the YouTube video into your website, using YouTube to host the video.

YouTube for Product Training

You have a new product and your company sales force to train. How best to reach them? Consider using YouTube. Create a series of short video training series, upload them to YouTube (make it a private video so that it won't be viewable by the public) and provide access to all of your company personnel. Sales force personnel can watch the videos at their leisure, without losing valuable sales time trekking back to the office for training. You save money, your salespeople save time, and you create an archive of product information that anyone can access at any time.

YouTube For Employee Communications

Use YouTube for your company communications. Instead of holding a big company meeting for the CEO to give his annual state of the company address, record the speech and post it on a private channel on YouTube. Employees can watch the CEO give his address from the comfort of their own desks, while they're on the road, or even at home.

Instead of sending impersonal memos via email, use YouTube to get information out there in near-real time, with all the benefits of a face-to-face communication.

YouTube For Recruiting

Finally, don't underestimate YouTube as a recruitment tool for new employees. Post a company welcome video on YouTube and make it public. You can link to the video from all your recruiting materials, even from any traditional ads you place. Don't limit yourself to a single long puff video: produce separate videos for individual departments, as well as to illustrate company values, employee benefits, and company facilities.

There are a lot of ways your company can make use of YouTube videos - from traditional brand and product marketing to customer support and employee communications. Everything you post on YouTube is completely free of charge. Don't be afraid to get started, even if your first videos are modest with little budget behind them. YouTube makes it easy to dip your toes in the water; you can't reap the benefit until you get online.

A Troy Burroghs: "Escape For Your Life or Die Farting" [In Spanish & English]

This is not a story about farting by far, no sir-ree, it is a story about almost farting and dying. I was a drunk for twenty-two years, and I had some fart problems when I stopped drinking.

Now if you've drank before, and I personnel know 70% those in the US do drink, and while in Germany, 98.6% of them drink. And while in Iceland, 99% of them drink and while in Alaska, the Arctic region, and I flew with a mail carrier delivering mail (yaw mail up my tuba... (?))just in case my wife is reading this; she likes Troy, and I may have it out yet)), he sold whiskey when I wasn't looking. Anyways, I'm not here to get him in trouble, but in the deep artic 99.6 % drink. They wanted me to stay and work for them in the arctic, back in '96, because they were going to open up the area for legal drinking...yaw you get the picture, legal, legal, legal...rehab...rehab...lots of farting is going to start.

Now you may think this a bit to the left my friend, you know, Mr. Burroghs is not telling his audience the full truth of the matter, baby you are getting it full steam...the bare truth of the matter. I'm a 100% man, all the way, traveled the world 24-time around. Oh yes, 2 and and 4...got it. Yes, yes and and yes, and for 22-years of traveling, them planes got stinky...farting all the way; if you drink, you fart: that is the gospel truth; don't try to tell me otherwise, I've been down the tail too many times. No questions asked. That is the mighty truth. You can bank on it...that is right and as good as gold.

Now, as I was saying, I was a counselor, and sitting out on this nice sunny day in July, sitting out in Wisconsin having a group therapy session, about nine people involved. And here was this guy and his wife. The wife came down to be with him on this occasion, not sure why but I let her join the group, after asking the group permission, you know, because they're going to reveal some stupid private information--us ex-drunks think no one in the world knows a damn thing about our behavior, when it's plastered all over kingdom-come. Yes, the butcher knows and so does the baker, and the electric company knows because you didn't pay the damn bill; because it is all about you, baby it is all about you--Right!!

We don't pay any of the mother suckers. None my friends...all they got was ZERO>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>take that to the bank

now comes the big D, in this story D does not sand for what is going on through your mind, oh now, when you're a professional drunk like me and my friends, or clients (take your pick), you don't need the Drunk part, but you get the D part, and that is FARTING is free. I really got to get on to the premise of this thing, the plot is already set...see, we are sitting in the humble circle telling one another what everyone in town already knows, and what we had forgot, until now--black out time. And this couple, call them Tom and Jerry [Mr. and Mrs. Anonymous--so I don't get sued], Jerry being the wife. Now they are sitting together with the rest of us thinking, yes just thinking, about what the other person is thinking, or trying to figure out what they are thinking. You want to know what they are thinking...I'll tell you, "I don't know if I should say this, they'll watch me, I'll be in the spot light..." that kind of gobblegook. Who really gives a rabbit's foot? Number one you have been seeking the spot light for twenty-years, now you're humble. It doesn't make sense, but that's a recovering fart for yaw.

Now let's get on to the mystery. As I was about to say, we are sitting there on the humble sunny July day, in Wisconsin, up on this hill in a free standing in and out care facility. I'm the hot shot counselor. Hello--are you listening............................................

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFf...it started, this grows like a rocket going to Mars, no kidding: -- yes Tom started a little fart it got louder, everyone now is looking at one another in the circle, you got it we're all looking at Tom☺ for the moment we are smiling. But this friend is the longest fart in all of human history. We couldn't talk, and the air was pushing it all away thank goodness. And we looked, and we looked and we looked, now the laughing was being held back, and Tom smiled ☻and smiled ☻ and smiled ☻...and the farting never stopped.

It must have went on for five minutes, I know that is a whole lot of seconds, something like...fffffffffffffffff♪♫♪♫♪♫F F F F F FFFF FFF ffffff ♫♪☻☺♫Ω yes my friend something like that, it had rhythm to it, a beat one might say and we all smiled. Now why did we smile? Think about it. Here would have been the Guinnes Book record had we had a recorder for the longest fart in history. He farted so much he couldn't even get up to go wipe himself because he kept on farting.

You might be saying, you can identify with this, and your girlfriend is sitting by you and damn if she peaks over at what I'm reading...shut the computer off quick, tell her you'll read this later, she doesn't' have to know, she will not know what you were reading, and if she catches you she'll say,

"You mean you enjoy reading about some drunk farting..." she will not get the picture, you're an old drunk and just wait until you get married, and then you'll find out. I don't think that guy's wife knew he had such problems. So I don't want to be responsible for a breakup.

Anyhow, but to reality: the poor man and his wife, sat there...you got it, ☻☻ with that stupid smile (s). But what could they do. Tom shock his shoulders, he was young and figured after 4. 5 minutes, I've lived through the hard part. I could only fart for 15-seconds, and I thought that was long.

So if you have re-opened this computer, or book, to finish the story, and your gal is gone, there isn't much more to really say, except, we had a little laugh, and a huge one internally, I think we all had a gut ache afterwards from holding in...and I'm sure some of us held in our farts so not to be criticized, if you are asking if I did, you will have to hold that in for a Dave Lettermen show interview....

Uno De Troy Burroghs: "Huye por tu vida o Muere por tirarte un pedo"

Esta no es una historia acerca de pedos por mucho, ninguno señor, esta es una historia acerca casi pedos y muerte. Yo fui un borracho por 22 años, y yo tenía algunos problemas con pedos cuando deje de beber.

Ahora si tu has bebido antes, y yo personalmente conozco que el 70 % de aquellos en los Estados Unidos lo hacen, y mientras en Alemania, el 98.6% de ellos beben, y mientras en Islandia, 99% de ellos beben y aunque en Alaska, la región Ártica, y yo volé con una empresa de transportes repartidora de correo (desvió enviado por correo mi conducto (¿) solo en el caso de que mi esposa este leyendo esto; a ella le gusta Troy, y yo puedo ajustarle cuentas ya)), el vendió Whiskey cuando yo no estaba mirando. De cualquier forma, yo no estoy aquí para ponerle a él en problemas, pero en la profundidad del ártico 99.6% bebe. Ellos querían que yo me quedara a trabajar con ellos en el ártico. Antes en el 96. Porque ellos iban a abrir el área de bebida legal, desvío Ud tiene la imagen, licito, legal, licito, rehabilitación, rehabilitación... muchos gases iban a comenzar.

Ahora Ud. Puede pensar esto un poco torcido mi amigo, Ud. Sabe, el Señor Burroghs no esta diciendo en su entrevista toda la verdad del asunto. Nene tu estas llevando esto completamente empañado... la verdad desnuda del asunto. Yo soy un hombre 100%, en todo lugar, viajé, alrededor del mundo 24 veces. Oh si, 2 y 4 eso es. Si, si y si, y por 22 años de viaje, esos aviones consiguieron oler mal...pedos todo el tiempo; si tu bebes, tu te tiras un pedo; ese es el evangelio de la verdad; no trates de decirme lo contrario, yo he estado con la cola baja demasiadas veces. Ninguna pregunta preguntada. Esa es la grandiosa verdad. Tu puedes depositar en esto... eso es correcto y tan bueno como el oro.

Ahora, como estaba diciendo, yo era un consejero, y sentado afuera en este día soleado de julio, sentado afuera en wisconsin teniendo una sesión de terapia en grupo, cerca de nueve personas envueltas. Y allí estaba este muchacho y su esposa. La esposa vino para estar con el en esta ocasión, no seguro por que pero, le deje a ella unirse al grupo, después de haber pedido al grupo el permiso, Ud. Sabe, porque ellos iban a revelarnos alguna información privada entupida- Ex - bebedores, pienso ninguno en el mundo conoce una cosa maldita acerca de nuestra conducta, cuando esto esta ebrio completamente hasta el día del juicio final. Si, el carnicero sabe y así hace el panadero, y la compañía de electricidad sabe porque tu no pagaste el maldito recibo; porque esto es todo por culpa tuya, nene esto es todo por culpa tuya- correcto!

Nosotros no pagamos nada de los chupones de mama- ninguno mis amigos...todos ellos consiguen estar en Zero.................................lleva eso para el banco.

Ahora viene el gran D, en esta historia D no se asemeja por lo que esta pasando a través de tu mente, Oh ahora, cuando tu eres un bebedor profesional como yo y mis amigos, o clientes (toma tu pico), tu no necesitas despedirte borracho, pero tu consigues la parte D, y eso es, tirarse pedo es libre. Yo realmente consigo hacerme a la idea de esta cosa, el terreno ya esta preparado, ...ve, nosotros estamos sentados en un circulo humilde diciendo uno al otro lo que todos en el pueblo ya conocen, y lo que nosotros hemos olvidado, hasta ahora dejando a oscuras en el tiempo. Y esta pareja, llamados Tom y Jerry (Señor y Señora Anónimos- entonces yo no consigo demandar), Jerry siendo la esposa. Ahora ellos están sentados juntos con el resto de nosotros pensando, si solo pensando, acerca de lo que las otras personas están pensando, o tratando de imaginarse lo que ellos están pensando. Tu quieres saber lo que ellos están pensando... Yo te lo diré, "yo no se si yo podría decir esto, ellos me miraran, yo estaré en el punto iluminado"... esa clase de trago oriental. ¿Quien realmente le da de comer a los conejos? En primer lugar tú has estado buscando el punto iluminado por 20 años, ahora tú eres humillado. Esto no tiene sentido, pero eso es una recuperación de tirarse un pedo por cambio de actitud..

Ahora déjame ir hacia el misterio, como estuve a punto de decir, nosotros estamos allí, sobre el humilde y soleado día de julio, en Wisconsin, arriba sobre esa montaña en un libre permaneciendo dentro y fuera de cuidado fácilmente. Yo soy un consejero importante. Hola- tú estas escuchándome...............

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF...esto empezó, esto creció como una roca yendo a Marte, ninguna broma: si, Tom comenzó un pequeño pedo este consiguió hacerse mas estruendoso, todos están ahora mirándose uno al otro en el circulo, lo conseguiste todos nosotros estamos mirando a Tom #9786; por el momento nosotros estamos sonriendo, pero esto, amigos es el mas grande pedo en toda la historia de la humanidad. Nosotros no podíamos hablar, y el aire esta empujándolo todo hacia afuera gracias a la bondad. Y nosotros miramos, y miramos y miramos, ahora las sonrisas están siendo dejadas atrás, y Tom sonrió #9787; y sonrió -#9787; y sonrió #9787; y la tirada de pedo nunca paro.

Esto debió haber continuado por unos cinco minutos, lo se, eso es una completa cantidad de muchos segundos, algo así.
Ffffffffffffffffffffff ♪♫♪♫♪, F F F F FFFFF FFF ffffff ♫:♫♪♫ si mi amigo algo así, tuvo ritmo para esto, un golpe uno podría decir y todos nosotros sonreímos. Ahora ¿porque sonreímos? Piensa acerca de esto. Aquí nosotros podríamos tener el record del libro Guinnes habíamos tenido nosotros un record por el pedo mas largo de la historia.
Él se pedorreo demasiado que no podía ni levantarse para ir a limpiarse porque el permaneció tirandose pedo.

Tu podrías estar diciendo, tu puedes identificarte con esto, y tu enamorada está sentada cerca de ti y maldición si ella pica sobre lo que yo estoy leyendo... apaga la computadora rápido, dile a ella que tu vas a casa a leer esto mas tarde, ella no tiene que saber, ella no sabrá lo que tu estas leyendo, y si ella te coge ella dirá.

"Tu piensas que tu disfrutas leyendo acerca de algunos borrachos pedones" ella no se imaginara, que tú eres un viejo bebedor y solo espera hasta que tu consigas casarte, y luego tu encontraras, yo no piensos que la esposa del muchacho sabia que el tenía tales problemas, entonces yo no quise ser responsable por un rompimiento.

De cualquier modo, pero la realidad; el pobre hombre y su esposa, sentados allí, lo tienes,.........☻ ☻ con esa entupida sonrisa.(s) Pero que podrían hacer. Tom sacudió sus hombros, el era joven y se imagino después de 4 a 5 minutos. Que Yo había vivido a través de la parte difícil. Yo podría solamente tirarme un pedo por 15 segundos, y yo pienso eso era largo.

Entonces si tu has abierto otra ves esta computadora, o libro, para terminar la historia, y tu galán se fue, no hay mucho mas realmente para decir, excepto, que nosotros tuvimos una pequeña sonrisa, y una enorme internamente, yo creo todos nosotros tenemos dolor de tripas después de disimular...y estoy seguro alguno de nosotros disimulamos nuestra tirada de pedos y así no ser criticados, si tu estas preguntando si yo lo hice, tu tendrás que aguantar eso hasta una entrevista a Dave Lettermen...
