...Dušan Lučić Professor Norris Eppes English 4 3 April 2018 Time Capsule The Twenty First Century is a period of many technological and social revolutions. Many things have changed over the course of this time and dividing three things to put in a time capsule for future generations is hard to do. In my opinion, the things I would divide for the time capsule is the game Nba 2k11, Apple earphones, and the jersey of LeBron James. The first thing I chose to store for the future is the basketball game Nba 2k11. Basketball games have remained one of the most popular games on the globe for many years. It’s production has gravely improved from game to game; however, one game remains the cornerstone in basketball game history as it was quite revolutionary....

...My Time Capsule Paula Perry Kaplan University My Time Capsule If you are reading this letter, then I know you have uncovered my time capsule. I know the times have certainly changed from my era to yours. It is my pleasure to tell you a few things about my society and give you an example of what life was like in the year 2013/2014 for me. My daily routines would start like this: I would wake up at 7am to start my routines. This includes cleaning my house, taking my two dogs outside, eating and doing my school work. While doing my school work I would listen to love songs from the 80’s to relax and concentrate (Perry, 2014). At present, I am enrolled into Kaplan University online pursuing my Bachelors in Psychology. During my day, I have to read my books and post to the discussion boards and comment to two classmates’ posts with minimum 250 words. I also have to attend one seminar a week for one hour online with my classmates and the Professor. During the ten week course we have three essays due, so I am constantly working on them early. Once my school work is over, however, I spend my time surfing the internet such as, Facebook, Yahoo mail, and playing games online. On the weekends I am more active with working out and walking, and spending time with my family. I believe to have a positive balance in my life is by staying in shape (Perry, 2014). In 2013/2014, in our society we judge people by the way they look, I have heard people say if you are fat...

...Final Project: Time Capsule Jack B. Gilmore Kaplan University Final Project: Time Capsule 4/18/2325—I received a phone call this morning, requesting my presence at the site of an archeological dig. I was informed that what appeared to be an intact “time capsule” with a “1/1/1970” date-stamp was found in the rubble of Old Washington D.C. America was a different place then—people were free to eat red meat, the internal combustion engine was everywhere, and procreation was not regulated, to name just a few of the now seemingly barbaric practices that were commonplace in that America. Knowing this, the contents of this capsule should hopefully shed some light on our ancestors, and the information contained within will most certainly be invaluable to historians studying the era of the 1960’s. Item #1: An intact and remarkably well preserved newspaper dated August 8, 1964 with the headline “Johnson Declares War!” The paper is of course referring to President Lyndon B. Johnson and his declaration of war on Vietnam with the Tonkin Gulf Resolution (Chambers, 2000). While the United States had been gradually entering into war with Vietnam for approximately a decade by this point (Britannica.com, 2013), it was the incidents in the Tonkin Gulf and Johnson’s resolution immediately following that solidified the war in America’s psyche. Before this, the Vietnam conflict was simply just that—a “minor conflict” to the majority of America, and as this was a far more preferable way...

...Time Capsule Holly Lara May 1, 2012 HU300: Arts and Humanities: 20th Century and Beyond Prof: Ellie Schamber My Day-to-Day Life My name is Holly Lara and I am married and have four kids, two of which are my step kids. During the day I clean my house and make breakfast lunch and dinner for my family. I like to go to the mall at times to shop and to take my kids to the park. I try not to let things in life stress me out, though sometimes it can be hard with so many expenses. At night I am a bartender, I love my job very much. I love to sing and play around with music on my spare time and even teach my kids how to play instruments. I think music is a big part of our world in the 21st century. I personally like living in the 21st century with the new technology that come in every few months. I don’t think I could have lived in a previous century where there was no technology invented. I do wish that we lived in a healthier environment though. There is too much pollution in the air and way too much littering everywhere. In the future I would like to own a house for my family, somewhere where I can have my kids visit me and bring my grandkids to. I want a huge backyard for them to play in. I would also like a plan to be made to make our environment cleaner, so it will be a safer environment for my kids and grandkids. Morality and Decision-Making The biggest morality question today and probably will be on-going for many centuries to come is should abortion be allowed...

...Renaissance. Michelangelo’s sculpture of David has come to be one of the most renowned works of Renaissance sculpture, becoming a representation of both strength and youthful human beauty. The next item that I see is a large painting. Upon closer inspecting I see that it is The Hippopotamus and Crocodile Hunt by Peter Paul Rubens. Rubens painted The Hippopotamus and Crocodile Hunt in 1616. He was a true Baroque era artist. Rubens use of dramatics and visual diagonal to broaden the sense of immediacy and movement and redirected attention downward into the center of action truly represent the Baroque era style of art. As we search deeper into the chamber we continue to find more and more fascinating items from such a unique and interesting time in human history. In a dark corner of the chamber we have discovered a rare find, the manuscript of Missa de Beata Virgine by Josquin de Perez. Missa de Beata Virgine is a musical set of the “Ordinary of the Mass”. It is believed to have been composed around...

Our archeologists have unearthed a time capsule filled with a treasure trove of items that seem to remarkably symbolize the 1960’s as a whole. The items found were: a contraceptive known as “The Pill”, A Peace sign, a picture of Martin Luther King Jr., Beatles memorabilia, and a newspaper article from 1963 on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Development of oral contraceptives In 1948 with the help of a small grant awarded from the Planned Parenthood organization (Parethood, 2014) and with the assistance of Dr. Min Chueh Chang American Biologist Dr. Gregory Pincus, began working in the early 1950’s on a hormonal contraceptive (Bio.com, 1996-2013). The experiment was using progesterone to inhibit ovulation. They were later joined by a fertility specialist Dr. John Rock and began human trials in the late 1950’s. Margaret Sanger, the Founder of Planned Parenthood, Medical Director, and Vice-President of the organization was a champion of the work being completed by Dr. Pincus and his colleagues. Frustrated with the meager amount of the Planned Parenthood grant Sanger joined forces with Katharine McCormick, biologist, millionaire philanthropist, and activist who was highly involved...

...Renaissance Time Capsule Rodney A. Mathis HUM/102 June 2, 2014 Dr. Julie Kares Renaissance Time Capsule As part of my introduction to humanities class, I was required to probe for a concealed time capsule from both the Renaissance and the Baroque ages. Thereafter, I was required to identify at least two examples of art, music, architecture, philosophy, and literature depicted during the periods. By doing so, I expected to identify how these examples reflected world events and cultural blueprints of their periods. The Renaissance refers to the cultural transformations witnessed in Europe between the fourteen-century and the sixteen-century (Cheremeteff, 2000). The transformations originated in Italy before spreading to the other parts of Europe. Owing to the transformations, Europe came out of the economic crisis experienced during the middle ages. As such, the period was marked by robust financial growth. Similarly, the period saw changes in art, music, architecture, philosophy, and literature. On the other hand, the Baroque refers to the cultural style witnessed in Europe between the 17th century and the mid 18th century (Cheremeteff, 2000). The style was depicted by the use of overstated motion and interpreted features to create stage shows, tension, enthusiasm, and sumptuousness from monuments, work of arts, literature, and songs. Detailed below is what I expect to unravel from the two time capsules. Art From the Renaissance period, I expect to find the Last supper...

...1960 Time Capsule Vickie Canzenza Kaplan University The first of the five items that were found in the 1960 time capsule was a newspaper with “Kennedy Assassinated” on the first page. http://www.theguardian.com/theguardian/from-the-archive-blog/2011/nov/22/jfk-assassination-tragedy-world-archive Late in his brief term of a thousand days, Kennedy took up the civil rights issue because of the increased in violence in some of the southern states. He called for increased federal power so that voting rights could be enforced. The major civil rights acts included public accommodations opening and an end to job discrimination. (Salem, 2009) After the Bay of Pigs incident he became “hard line,” by appointing militant anticommunists such as John McCone as CIA director and General Curtis LeMay as commander of the Air Force. He also insisted that western powers remain in West Berlin. (Salem, 2009) The major event of Kennedy’s foreign policy arose in 1962, when Khrushchev tried to establish nuclear missiles in Cuba. Kennedy used information and ideas from his task force and his advisers and blockaded Cuba and to threaten Khrushchev, Khrushchev then withdrew the missiles. (Salem, 2009) He was interested in “peace as a process,” and in 1963, the United States and the Soviet Union ended the nuclear threat. Kennedy listened to advisers who insisted that the United States should send troops to Vietnam to show the South Vietnamese army how to fight, even though skeptical, Kennedy...

...Time Capsule Paper HUM102 October 22, 2012 Verna Cathy Tobin The Age of Baroque was between 1600 and 1750. “The term ‘baroque’ is associated with such features as ornateness, spatial grandeur, and theoretical flamboyance” (Fiero, 2011, p. 10). The Age of Baroque follows the Renaissance, which means ‘rebirth.’ Therefore, the Age of Baroque can be in comparison to the years of adolescence, where the events and cultural patterns are contradictory and full of emotional statement. This paper will highlight two examples of art, music, descriptions of architecture, philosophy, and literature of time as well as reflect how each example reflects both world events and the cultural patterns of the time. Examples of Art The first two examples of the Age of Baroque are those of art. Art during this age used the contrast of light and dark and effects that produced illusions to evoke emotions by the viewers. Religious subjects were often the theme of the portraits to portray a dramatic scene to give viewers the sense that he or she were active participants in the scene. This was reflective of the world events and cultural patterns focused on religious matters, such as the Catholic Reformation and the cultural events that were emotional for individuals. The first example is The Supper at Emmaus by Caravaggio (1571-1610). The painting uses the strong contrasts of light and dark and shows the religious subjects...

...Your Final Project for this course will be a virtual time capsule. A time capsule is a grouping of items for future discovery. For our purposes, we will imagine that our time capsule will be buried at the end of the course and opened 100 years later. The goal of our capsule is to provide an overview of what you believe future generations should remember about the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. The project can be composed in Microsoft Word or Powerpoint. It can include multimedia if you wish. It should include the following eight parts: 1.A letter of introduction to tell someone in the future about your day-to-day life. What is your daily experience? Tell this person about your habits, your customs, your feelings about our present time, and your dreams for the future. 2.An example of morality and decision-making in current culture in 100 words or more. 3.Your definition of happiness in 100 words or more, including how you came to this view. Next, you will also choose an artifact for each of the following areas (4-8). You will explain the item in one paragraph, giving it context, and describing it.

...of the twenty-first century and some ways to manage and prevent it. Stress is manifested nowadays more frequently that one would imagine. People should start to think how frequently do they and people around them use the phrases “I am so stressed out” or “I’ve been feeling so stressed lately”. The answer would most likely be “too frequent”. Actually, stress seems to be infiltrating in each and every person’s life. The time that people spend stressing over an assignment, especially students, is inhumane. There is nothing wrong with taking two minutes and eat something or relax. Otherwise, that’s where stress begins to kick in. Stress has begun to take away peoples lives. Even if they are not working, they are still thinking of what they need to hand in or to do for Monday. People are already regularly stressed on a daily basis, because of any inconvenience at work, any traffic and any noises that people have to put up with every day. Besides that permanent stress, there is the stress that people put on them because of the pressure to do something on time and well...
