...Alfred Hudson “Many of us have vivid mental pictures of Victorian England: a Charles Dickens Christmas with a large, happy family surrounding a table crammed with food; the dark and terrifying slums in other Dickens novels; Sherlock Holmes in London by gaslight; timeless country estates where laborers nodded in deference to the squire while ladies paid social calls and talked about marriage.” Mitchell, Helen. Daily Life in Victorian England. In the Victorian Era of England there were many different things that were regarded as important. Such as social stats, which was probably the most important. The role of men and woman were to keep their social status up. Also their child’s role was to get a good education and to grow rich to...

...different complex factors. Due to the complexity of human sexuality there has been much done by the way of research, theory and model development from past researchers such as Sigmund Freud, Henry Havelock Ellis, Alfred Kinsey, and the team of Masters and Johnson (King, 2012). This paper will explore some of the current contributors of research as well as factors leading to the development of human sexuality based upon: the biological perspective, gender identity and roles, sexual orientation, as well as the relation between these terms. Development of Human Sexuality Human sexuality is indeed the way in which we experience as well as express ourselves as sexual beings (Rathus, Nevid, & Fichner-Rathus, 2010). Many theories have been developed regarding the development one’s gender identity and human sexuality; however it is argued that the most important factor to consider is our actual gender (DeLamater & Friedrich, 2002). Sigmund Freud’s “Freudian Theory” is based on the fact that each stage in life brings new milestones for human sexual development (King, 2012, p. 207). In the first year of life Freud believed that due to the occurrence of gratification from oral stimulation through sucking, the mouth was the primary erogenous zone (King, 2012). The second stage was believed to be the anal phase as infants age 11/2 to 3 would gain pleasure from holding and expelling feces (King, 2012). The third stage occurring ages 3 to 5 years is when masturbation begins to occur as the genitals...

...Lean Production Techniques, the new Henry Ford: why his techniques worked and why it does not work as well today. Abstract This paper takes a closer look into lean production techniques and how drastically they have changed since the Industrial Revolution. It looks into the time when Henry Ford was successful in creating and implementing the concept of the assembly line, why it worked and how it is doing today. It will explore the concepts of General Motors and what they did to overtake Ford to become the largest automobile maker. And lastly, it will look into Taiichi Ohno, who he is and what he did to help Toyota eventually surpass the American vehicle manufactures and to become the world’s largest car maker. Lean Production Techniques, the new Henry Ford and why his techniques worked and why it does not work as well today. One of the greatest production techniques ever implemented during the last century was the idea of the assembly line. Henry Ford revolutionized the manufacturing industry by using a constantly-moving assembly line and in doing this realized huge gains in efficiency. By using productivity technologies he helped turn the automobile from a luxury item for the rich, to essential transportation for the everyday man. Henry Ford was always looking for new ways to improve the production process. [In 1914, Ford began paying his employees five dollars a day, nearly doubling the wages offered by other manufacturers. He cut the workday from nine...

Chapter II – Review of related literature. Chapter III – Methodology * Research design * Data gathering procedure * Respondents Chapter IV – Conclusion and recommendation. Introduction Background of the study The bible is a book, used as a guide, and the vital proof of the faith of many Christians, which includes many promises, and histories, many of which are already being verified as facts, e.g.: the parting of the Red sea, in which were found, preserved chariot wheels, rusty Egyptian swords, arrowheads, and other military materials in a vast array, for an unknown reason, until the bible. This topic will portray our proof of the reliance of the bible, which was written for a period of more than 1500 years and was completed 1900 years ago. This paper shows how a book, written in a vast period of time, very long ago, is even used as a source of wisdom, knowledge, and a holy tool to overcome what man can never achieve alone. We want to prove how many scientists, and historians are forced to admit that the Bible is accurate in all aspects. This research proves that new discoveries always support the things in the Bible. Though the bible can contain...

...“longest, largest, and most complex” naval battle in history, resulting in 3,500 Allied merchant ships and 175 Allied warships being destroyed in addition to over 72,000 Allied casualties (Syrett, 1994). In an attempt to obstruct the movement of merchant shipping, supplies, equipment, and forces into Britain, Admiral Karl Dönitz, German U-Boat Fleet Commander, deployed several U-Boats in “wolfpack” formations to inflict fear and destruction on Allied convoys. As a result, U.S. Allied forces launched a naval campaign to secure the Atlantic sea-lanes, which subsequently served as a precursor to the allied invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944 (Baer, 1996). In an effort to analyze the strategic and operational factors of this vital campaign, this paper will examine the contributing factors, which led to the Allied victory during the Battle of the Atlantic. Specifically, we will assess the strategic importance of time, coordination, policy, diplomacy, economic management, military intervention, and theory. In addition, we will evaluate the operational factors of adaptive warfare at sea, the critical role of intelligence, and the exploitation of advanced technologies throughout the Battle of the Atlantic. Strategic Factors Grand Alliance When seeking to determine a national goal, objective, or interest, there must be a combination of resources, conditions, and elements of national power to determine the viability of a nation and its relative status among partner nations.

...ENGLISH LITERATURE ITS HISTORY AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE FOR THE LIFE OF THE ENGLISH-SPEAKING WORLD A TEXT-BOOK FOR SCHOOLS BY WILLIAM J. LONG, PH.D. (Heidelberg) TO MY FRIEND C H T IN GRATITUDE FOR HIS CONTINUED HELP IN THE PREPARATION OF THIS BOOK CANTERBURY PILGRIMS From Royal MS., 18 D.ii, in the British Museum PREFACE This book, which presents the whole splendid history of English literature from Anglo-Saxon times to the close of the Victorian Era, has three specific aims. The first is to create or to encourage in every student the desire to read the best books, and to know literature itself rather than what has been written about literature. The second is to interpret literature both personally and historically, that is, to show how a great book generally reflects not only the author's life and thought but also the spirit of the age and the ideals of the nation's history. The third aim is to show, by a study of each successive period, how our literature has steadily developed from its first simple songs and stories to its present complexity in prose and poetry. To carry out these aims we have introduced the following features: (1) A brief, accurate summary of historical events and social conditions in each period, and a consideration of the ideals which stirred the whole nation, as in the days of Elizabeth, before they found expression in literature. (2) A study of the various literary epochs in turn, showing what each gained from...

...of where man came from amoeba-like organisms, or even that we evolved from apes. How did life of origin arise? The components of evolution might explain how, but Creation gives a reason to believe why. Origin of life’s existence, as well as age of the earth is a question that is looked under a microscope and probed through both biblical theories, as well as scientific. Looking at difference evidence, acceptance of creation is growing even in spite of scientists trying to prove evolution. Within this paper, there will be different pieces of evidence and facts supporting each theory and there will be an argument, within my conclusion, on which theory I support. The theory of creation can be explained through various books in the bible. Creationists use the Bible as the truth for which they believe the origin of life came into existence. In bible studies and bible school, we were taught that God took clay from the ground which he shaped to a man that he called Adam. A verse in the King James Version, of the Bible, mentions “and the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” Then, the Lord made a garden as Adam’s place of residency. There are pictures of beautiful trees and animals that were created to accompany Adam, only one thing was missing, a woman. A woman was to provide and care for Adam. I was taught that God took a rib from Adam and made a woman from this. The next morning, there was a woman...

Allingham, Contributing Editor, Victorian Web; Faculty of Education, Lakehead University (Canada) [Victorian Web Home —> Authors —> Music, Theatre, and Popular Entertainment —> Theatres] Much of the following information has been gathered from Frederick and Lise-Lone Marker's in "A Guide to London Theatres, 1750-1880" in The Revels History of Drama in English, Vol. VI: 1750-1880 (1975). They, in turn, consulted H. Barton Baker's History of the London Stage (London, 1904), Allardyce Nicoll's A History of English Drama 1660-1900 (Cambridge, 1966), E. B. Watson's Sheridan to Robertson (Cambridge, Mass., 1926), and The London Stage (Carbondale, Ill., 1962-68). Phyllis Hartnoll's Concise Oxford Companion to the Theatre offers more detailed information about many of these 19th c. theatres. For supplementary texts, consult the "Reference List" below. Adelphi (Strand) Built in 1806 opposite Adam Street by merchant John Scott (who had made his fortune from a washing-blue) as the Sans Pareil to showcase his daughter's theatrical talents, the theatre was given a new facade and redecorated in 1814. It re-opened on 18 October 1819 as the Adelphi, named after the imposing complex of West London streets built by the brothers Robert (1728-92) and James (1730-94) Adam from 1768.
