...what we know as the modern movement, it was somewhat shunned, or touted as being inferior to traditionalist styles. My research paper will focus specifically on the difference between modern and traditional styles of art, the dynamic between them, and how both styles contributed to how we view art today, as well as the vilification of modern art in the eyes of the art world. My interest in this topic mainly stems from my own personal interest in art, because it’s what i want to...

...Media Role Research Paper October 13, 2014 Rosamar Mallari Professor: Deanna Shelby SOC 101: Introduction to Sociology Moraine Valley Community College – Blue Island Learning Center Media Role Research Paper The inequality between men and women is not limited to past civilizations or to certain cultures; however, is constantly present in modern society. Moreover, the biological components with which individuals are born will not only work as their master status within society, but it will also dictated the socially acceptable behavior for the individuals within that civilization (Helsin, 2009, p. 294). Additionally, in modern society the media can also reinforce the gender stratification barrier or break it. Therefore, to have a better understanding of the media effect in gender stratification an episode of the television sitcom “Last Man Standing” will be analyze in the following paragraphs. Episode Background “Last Man Standing” is a comedy show in which the father of three girls offers his perspective regarding day-to-day situations that families are dealing with, in today’s society. In the episode “Here’s the Kicker” the family has to deal with the decision of the youngest female member of joining the men varsity football team (Shipley & Pasquin, 2014).

In 605 B.C. , Nebuchadnezzar led the Babylonian army to victory over the Eygptians at Carchemish, establishing control over Syria and northern Israel. Then he marched south and took some exiles including Daniel.1 “The Book of Daniel is not only one of the most intriguing works in the Bible, but it is also filled with timeless truths that are just as relevant to modern believers as they were to those who first heard them.”2 In this research paper we are going to assert that Daniel foresees the antichrist who will appear at the end of the age. There is much controversy about the antichrist. Who is he? Was he Hitler or Mussolini or some other despot that persecuted and...

...For my third research project, I would like to research the infamous Dan Cooper. I would like to research this topic because I find it very interesting just how someone could commit such an astonishing crime and still not be incarcerated after over 45 years on the run. The man seems to have “fallen off the grid” since that day of November 24th, 1971 with no hard evidence to lead authorities to any conclusions. The fact that such an act is possible, quite frankly, astonishes me and intrigues me to look deeper into why this man has not been apprehended. I have conducted a fair amount of prior research on the subject, which primarily included the watching of many film specials broadcasted by popular media networks such as CNN and ABC News. In this research, I have the means in which Dan Cooper, or D.B. Cooper as he is more popularly known by, committed his crime. I now know how he took control of the plane by showing the bomb in his briefcase to a flight attendant; the demands that he stated to the flight attendant to get the pilots to land the plane in Seattle, where they were met with $200,000 in cash, four parachutes, and jet fuel;...

Modern day slavery consists of human trafficking, forced labor, and domestic servitude. Human trafficking is the action or practice of illegally transporting people from one country or area to another, typically for the purposes of forced labor or commercial sexual exploitation....

...Persuasive Research Paper Langston Hughes was a forerunner of rap music. He writes with a finesse that is a lot similar to a modern day rapper. Growing up during the Harlem Renaissance really set the stage for Langston Hughes writing. He also lived in a time where he African Americans were proud of their roots. Being around all the arts made him more inclined to write the way he did, with a rhythm. From Langston Hughes attitudes towards women, to writing about the streets he grew up on and his struggles, it is very evident that Langston Hughes was a forerunner of rap. Langston Hughes was lucky his hit his peak during the Harlem Renaissance because that gave him the opportunity to perform and publish his work in Black magazines. Langston Hughes mirrors rappers because he wrote his poetry simplistically, so people with no education could read and understand it. Langston Hughes wasn’t just a writer he was also a performer, he would regularly perform in nightclubs to gain exposure. I’m sure that if Langston Hughes were alive today he would be performing spoken word poetry in New York night clubs, or writing lyrics for today’s rappers. Langston Hughes was so drawn to the nightlife that he dropped out of school to travel and perform his poetry, just like a lot of modern rappers chasing their dreams. In the 1923 poem, “Jazzonia”, Langston Hughes sets the poem, “In a Harlem nightclub” (1140) , and is describing the jazz players inside it. Three years later, in “Lenox avenue: midnight”...

...and within the last twenty years. Such a large amount has improved so rapid as cities grow and technology advances, engineering is moving along with the tide. Engineers that grow and see their world of work improve every day because of certain advances in technology all depending on their field. This how engineering features evolved into what they are today from within the last two decades; and how the change will continue to advance as modern Technology embraces a post-modern era. Engineering has existed since the earliest times of culture and perhaps is one of the older lines of labor on earth (the earliest invention of engineering goes back as early as the invention of the wheel). It’s extraordinary that we came so far since the discovery of the wheel. The technology that has been accomplished today just engulfs the minds of people. Everyday modern technology is taken over the minds of people and they continue to adapt to the modern changes within the ever changing society. Through centuries there are trails left by ancient engineering and has differed from our technology today. Through the ancient era there has been astounding and un-answering feats of engineering. Like the great pyramids of Egypt and the great coliseums of Rome. They manufactured these man-made objects so big with no industries, and no mechanical machinery. Coliseums, pyramids, and breathe taking...

...The book has no place in modern society. Discuss. Every book is a quotation; and every house is a quotation out of all forests, and mines, and stone quarries; and every man is a quotation from all his ancestors. A book is a written or printed work that has its pages sewed or glued to one another. The book has been around for years in its present printed form, advancing along with new innovations in today’s modern society, the book may have been partially replaced by the internet but it would be too extreme to say that the book has no place in modern society. Its distinctive and tangible touch is impossible to be substituted for. Thus, I feel that the book still has a place in modern society. The book still has a place in today’s modern society as today’s society is a knowledge-based one, knowledge is key to success. Books are pivotal to imparting knowledge and skills to the masses, especially to students in school. We cannot neglect the fact that the book is still the bread and butter of our lives. An example of a book that develops our skills and knowledge is the “7 Habits of Highly Effective People”, which has sold over twenty million copies worldwide. The remarkable sales figures just demonstrates the importance of the book in modern society, be it for entertainment or personal upgrade. They are the very core driving force of passing down present-day human knowledge. Some may argue that modern day innovations such as e-books serve the same function as well, however one...

...Adam ate the apple. Consequently Eve is blamed as being the reason mankind is not living in a paradise. Sexism has continued throughout ancient history and continues occur in our own environment to this day. Sexism is defined as the discrimination or hatred against people based on their gender rather then their individual merits. This is shown though a common modern day event; a girl cannot play in a hockey league because of her gender, similarly a male cannot be a part of many cheerleading squads because of his gender. There are many groups and movements that make this more aware to the public eye and help bring light to these issues but sexism will continue in our world as it has since the roots of mankind's creation. Sexism in its general usage is directed against females. A poll taken from a university in the states reported that 66% of the student body believed that males were the superior gender. Perhaps the grounds of this biased thinking is derived from older customs. In ancient Greece, dating back over twenty-five hundred years ago, women were born as property of their fathers. This ownership shifted to the husband as the woman grew older. Women were also seen not worthy of male accompaniment, in older days women were to bring doweries to their husbands. These doweries would often be gold, valuables or even livestock which were used as "payment" for marriage. This is a prime example of how many sexist...

...Introduction: Historical definition: Modern or broad definition: Taylor’s objective in hindsight had the best intentions of creating a ‘mental revolution’ in society. It was good for the economy, increasing output, efficiency, profits, and wages. However his scientific principles worked and are still applied today in modern organizations. Therefore there are a lot of good and strong aspects in Taylorism theory applied in production, service and knowledge industry’s which is practiced in todays organizations-structure, rules, data collection analysis, performance reports, time deadlines. Taylorism has been very strong in the Industrialization of the BRIC economies, their economies-GDP-are expanding at a very high rate. China has a GDP growth of 7% to 12% during the GFC. However a social cost is cheap labour, de-skilling, disempowerment , silence and marginalization of workers. The issue is will there be structural and social change in China? Will there be a revolution one day against the system and the scientific principles of the government? There is definitely the rise of the middle class whom are wealthy and are diversifying to other parts of the world? Why? Are they unhappy living in China? Answers to these questions can imply that Taylorism has also a dark side, an extreme if taken over its full capacity. Forces of greed, selfishness, disassociation , non caring, non well being can also be prevalent. GOOD ASPECTS OF TAYLORISM ‘Toyota Motor Corporation in...

...RESEARCH PAPER on “How the Bible and evolution clashes, why is the knowledge of the Doctrine of Creation is important to understand?” THEO 525 LUO (fall 2013) Systematic Theology I Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary October 11, 2013 Creation and Evolution clashes, when there are changes being made to the age of the earth and the creation of man. The structure is described in the Bible as God created it; however, it describes the earth before the six days of creation. When thinking about the integration of evolutionary principles, as far as the scientific laws are concerned, there is no difference between the origin of the earth and all of its life. Could the Big Bang theory have happened? The Gap Theory, everything made out of nothing. Is the Gap Theory real? Luther sided with the Bible and creation, is his blessing relevant today? Was the earth created out of nothing, no previous atoms did God use? God created the heavens and the earth in six days so we had the seventh day for Shabbat. The Progressive Creation explains the Genesis flood and the six days of creation. So the question is could God really have created everything in six literal days? If so, where did the origins of life come from; and what about the Law of Nature, their survival of the fittest? How big is the rift between the evolutionist and the creationist? Can we trust the Bible to tell us the truth? These are the questions that I will be looking for an answer to. In evolution...
