...Extreme Makeover: Criminal Court Edition This paper is going to discuss and argue points regarding tattoos and the meaning behind the tattoos, which will also disagree with Article titled: Extreme Makeover: Criminal Court Edition, By John Schwartz, and Published in December 5, 2010 in Clearwater, Florida. A Florida judge has agreed with a defense request to have John Ditullio’s tattoos covered up by a makeup artist so that they cannot influence the jury in his murder trial. The court paid $125 a day for the services of a cosmetologist and the process took process 45 minutes. Criminal “John Ditullio goes on trial for murder charges related to a double stabbing that wounded a woman and killed a teenager in 2006. This is Mr. Ditullio’s second trial for the murder; the first, which also involved the services of a cosmetologist, ended last year in a mistrial. If convicted, he could face the death penalty. Jurors will not see the large swastika tattooed on his neck. Or the crude insults tattooed on the other side of his neck, or know about the taunting Christmas card he sent to the victim’s family from prison. Or the fact that he was a Neo-Nazi group member. The judge was wrong to have agreed with defense to cover up John Ditullip‘s tattoos by a hiring maker-up artist, because tattoos have a communicative value, especially the ones with high public visibility (see plot below). According to research performed by Kathleen Doss & Amy S Ebesu Hubbard , tattoos...

...The Legendary Life of Rudyard Kipling Rudyard Kipling was one of the greatest writers of all time. He was a gifted writer and a huge celebrity, and has provided us with countless writings that will continue to be enjoyed by future generations. There are two perspectives when it comes to Kipling’s canonization; those that believe based solely on his writing abilities think he should be canonized, and those who saw him as an only an outspoken political figure do not. The questions surrounding his use of a swastika show him to be a possible Nazi sympathizer and curve his support of canonization. The purpose of this research paper is to provide the insight and the facts to support the stature of his writing abilities, and to prove that on the merit of his writing alone, he is a true literary canon. Despite his political incorrectness, he should be considered a talented and remarkable author based solely on his literary creativity. Kipling was born in December of 1965 in Bombay, British India; which is now known as Mumbai, India. He was an English poet, short story writer and novelist (Wikipedia). He was born to Lockwood and Alice Kipling, who were both highly respected people in their time. Kipling was in love with India and the people that inhabited it. Some of Kipling’s earliest and fondest memories are of him and his sister Alice’s trips to the bustling fruit market with their nanny, or her telling them Indian nursery rhymes and stories before their nap in the tropical afternoon...

...and Personality Paper Life Span Development and Personality Paper Faith L. Mayo Axia College of University of Phoenix Life Span Development and Personality Paper Adolf Hitler was a famous individual from the 20th century; his story has been well known for many years and will continue to spread through time as it was a memorable part of our history. He was the founder and leader of the Nazi party from 1933-1945 (Wistrich, 1997). His father was Alois Hitler, who was an authoritarian disciplinarian. He was strongly attached to his mother Klara Poelzl, she was a strong woman and a very hard worker. Once she passed away from cancer, Adolf Hitler began to show signs of moodiness, temperamental, and not willing to work (Wistrich, 1997). He moved to Vienna in 1907 and applied to Viennese Academy of Fine Arts, which he was rejected. This was the final turning point for Adolf Hitler. According to the Holocaust Education & Archive Research Team; in 1913, Hitler moved to Munich to join the Sixteenth Bavarian Infantry Regiment, serving as a despatch runner. He was badly wounded and placed in gas chambers for four weeks. Once he was released, he had to recuperate in a hospital for three months (C.W. and CL Heart, 2007). Hitler believed this would be his fate; to punish those that had embarrassed him in front of his nation; the Jewish and the Bolsheviks. In 1919, Hitler started out with 40 members by his side and used the swastika and the “Heil”...

...International College Abstract This research paper will present Hitler’s life from childhood till death, and how his character was shaped by happenings throughout his life. Conducting this research happened by studying Hitler’s biography from different points of view and analyzing the happenings he experienced to prove if Hitler was a man or a monster. Hitler: Man or Monster The man who has become known to many as the worst warmonger in history had humble, even bohemian beginnings. Believe it or not, Adolf Hitler was once a struggling artist, selling watercolor paintings of Viennese landmarks to keep him out of the poor house. How did Hitler go from this penny-pinching life to leading the Nazi Party and eventually Germany itself? Troubled Childhood Born 1889, April 20 – Adolf Hitler was born in an inn in the Austrian village of Braunau-am-Inn. He was the third child of Alois Hitler who was a customs official and his third wife Klara who came from a poor peasant family, but the other two children had died in infancy. Life was financially comfortable for the Hitler family but Alois was a domineering character and young Adolf frequently found himself on the wrong side of his father's short temper. At second Adolf had a half-brother, Alois Jr, and a half-sister, Angela, from Alois' previous marriage. Adolf's younger brother, Edmund, was be born in 1896. Another sister, Paula, was born in 1896 and would outlive Adolf, dying in 1960. Swastika, 1897 – At primary school Hitler was...

...Hate Crimes The topic of my choice to do my research paper on is Hate Crimes. I chose this topic because I thought it would be interesting to explore the minds of an individual who desire to cause harm to another individual or a group of individuals just because he/she opposes to individuality. According to the media and articles that have been published over the last couple of years, there has been a large number of hate crimes spreading throughout the world. Many groups that are being targeted by this malicious crime are those that are of homosexuality, race, and religious. Doing my research I read an article on how the minds of a person who commits hate crimes are develop. A person who commits hate crimes are usually an individual who has been abused as a child and violence is the only way they have learned to solve their problems. They are usually a lonelier, have difficulties with being around a group of people. These individuals tend to be small minded, not accepting to others having different opinions and beliefs on life. Hate crimes are premeditated and prejudice crimes that are carried out by individuals who wish to cause harm to individuals for being of different. The highest number of hate crimes is due to homosexuality. According to Chris Saldnan, “sexual orientations are up six-percent nationwide”. Since homosexuality has been accepted with open hearts and minds around the world, there are still some others who feel they need to seek action to stop it. Some people...

...The Rise of Anti-Semitism Nicole Badofsky English 147 12.7.2015 Amanda Yates The Rise of Anti-Semitism I was scrolling through Facebook, as I normally do when my attention was brought to a video about Jewish men and women on college campuses. I proceeded to watch the video and became horrified at some of the stories I was hearing from students that were talking about being attacked by Palestinian protestors as well as people who were anti-Israel. The story that affected me the most was when a student was struck in the back of the head from behind by a group of Palestinian men. After the student was struck in the back of the head, he was in a coma for a little over three months and needed extensive recovery. This is just one story of the anti-Semitism we are seeing in recent years, thankfully he made a full recovery. Unfortunately, many Jews that are being targeted throughout the world have not been so lucky and have had their lives tragically taken, these are their stories. In recent years, the tension between Israel and Palestine has caused a large increase in the violence against the Jewish people in Israel, Europe, and the United States. Attacks on Israeli Jews have been extremely high in the past couple of years due to the tension between the Palestinians and the Israelis. In a recent study, on November 19th, 2015 Yesiab, who was age 32, Yaakov Don, who was age 51, Ezra Schwartz who was age 18 were tragically killed when a Palestinian man had opened fire with...

...imitated) which Dawkins shortened to rhyme with the word gene (Mondschein). Initially, it was used in evolutionary biology to compare the passing of genes onto next generations to the passing of memes-- cultural and social behaviors-- onto the next generation (Schrempp). However, today, memes come to represent a more nuanced idea that resonates deeply with younger, especially teenage, generations. Now, memes are more commonly known as images, videos, or other cultural items that have been manipulated and spread via the internet (Shifman). In fact, in a study conducted by the Pew Research Center, researchers found that over 71% of teens in the United States use more than one social media platform (“February 2016”). Just as Dawkins originally argued, memes, just like genes, are not always beneficial to society (Wimsatt). Successful memes still follow the same basic properties that Dawkins wrote about in his paper: longevity, fecundity, and copy fidelity. These three qualities are only enhanced by the internet. Firstly, memes transmitted online have higher copy fidelity-- that is, they retain accuracy. The ability to screenshot, download, and repost ensures that key information is not lost. The internet is much more reliable than other modes of communication for this purpose. Furthermore, fecundity, the number of copies made in a certain amount of time, is also increased. The internet has billions of users, so it is easy to replicate, distribute, and spread memes online. Lastly, a successful...

Holocaust was a period of unspeakable horror and infernal ramifications which were not only felt across Europe but also in places like Laos. When I began this term paper, it was meant to be a study of the literature pertaining to this period of Nazi regime in Poland during World War II. What it turned out to be was a account of implacable and starkly real evil. A subject that has inspired countless movies, novels, real-life accounts, memoirs and poems, the holocaust continues to haunt the imagination of the world even today. It is not history bygone and forgotten, it is a demon that could never be truly obliterated from the lives and minds of the people.

...Annotative Bibliography- Evolution of Ska Paul Latty Western Michigan University Heathcott, JH. (2003). Urban spaces and working-class expressions across the black Atlantic: tracing the routes of ska. Retrieved from http://rhr.dukejournals.org/cgi/reprint/2003/87/183.pdf (Heathcott, 2003) The first wave of ska was the main focus of this article the first wave erupted in the early 1960s out of the energetic dance hall culture of urban Jamaica among working-class youth cobbling together old island traditions and new forms of expression from arrange of materials found in American, British, and Jamaican popular culture. I was introduced to the real definition of Rude Boy they said they were a suit and tie hooligan bent on turf protection and the defiance of adult authority. This matched what I had in mind when I thought of the rude boys I know today. I learned that many artists associated with the global reggae explosion of the 1970s, such as Bob Marley, Bunny Livingstone, Toots Hibbert, and Lee “Scratch” Perry, got their start as young Rude Boy instrumentalists in ska bands. By the late 1960s, Marley and other stars began to slow down the tempo of ska, launching experiments with the genre that would result in rocksteady and reggae music. Before reading this I had always thought that reggae and rocksteady came before the upbeat ska music was formed. This article gave me a lot of good information about the first wave of Ska and how Ska came to be in the first place...

...mIntroducing the History of Marketing Theory and Practice 1.1 Introduction The global popularity of marketing as a subject for study might suggest that those studying and teaching the subject know what it is that they are studying and how this study should be undertaken. But as we shall see in this chapter and others in this book, this has often not been the case. Marketing as a subject has proved almost impossible to pin down, and there is little consensus about what it means to study marketing. Most organisations now employ marketers. Marketing roles were traditionally found in commercial firms, but increasingly all kinds of organisations feel the need to employ marketers or to commission services from marketing consultants. The popularity and pervasiveness of marketing is, however, a relatively recent phenomenon. Academics have only studied marketing as a discipline in its own right for just over a century, and during its short history the study of marketing has been influenced by many different academic movements, fads and priorities. This variability can be viewed as a positive state of affairs, because it means that the subject is always open to new ideas and new trends. On the other hand, it has the potential to undermine the value of marketing knowledge because there is no general consensus on what the study of marketing should be for, how these studies should be conducted, or what the outcomes should be. Before we can begin to study marketing, we need to understand...

...Eastern Educational Philosophies Abstract Hinduism, Buddhism, and Confucianism are compared for historical, ideology, and epistemology, searching for Eastern Philosophy compatible to Western Philosophy. A research for possible influences on Education of Philosophy discovered that it was impossible to bring comparisons and even difficult to separate them into the key issues. Colonialism and Nationalism brings the two philosophies together. Even though the Western mindset can appreciate the fascination concepts it may be impossible to blend East and West. However, it is possible to juxtapose the very different philosophies as it may be represented in the arts. Even Western Philosopher who have been influenced by Eastern Philosophy, it is reasonable to believe it is the philosophers attempt to interpret Eastern Philosophy. However, it is impossible to replicate it. Instead the product is a hybrid and independent of either East or West. Eastern Educational Philosophies Eastern philosophy has a long and varied history. Asian ideas are among the oldest in the world. Great thinkers of the East have developed sophisticated cultural and political systems that have influenced other religions as well as western philosophy. This paper will examine ideological, epistemological, and historical differences in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Confucianism. Ways in which these philosophies have shaped higher education theory and practice are of major importance to educators. ...
