Essays on Fur

The character I chose for a reflective journal is John B. Watson. He is a representative of behaviorism and one of the most important persons in American psychology. It is essential to note that his views prevailed in American psychology for 50 years, and nowadays his ideas in altered form are still important. However, I am impressed by his points of view, behavioral, and radical experiments with a child. John B. Watson launched the behaviorist movement, rejected the philosophy of the past, the method of introspection, and mentioned that mental events were beyond the pale of scientific psychology. Unfortunately, ...

These images were sponsored by Peta, the organization for the protection of the rights of animals. It is suggested that animals should not be used neither for food nor for clothes because of the ethical issues. The interpretation of these images is related to the fact that animals have their rights as living creatures who suffer. They cannot defend themselves and people need to provide them ethical treatment. The viewers are directly engaged in these photos because of the fact that human body or its parts are present in each of them. The woman promotes better treatment of wild ...

Introduction

An ecosystem is defined as the interaction of the organism and other nonliving factors in a certain community. The living components of an ecosystem, such as plants, animals, and other organisms, can be classified as the biotic component of the ecosystem, whereas the environmental conditions such as water amount, humidity, soil nourishment, temperature, and the like are termed as the abiotic factors. In an ecosystem, both the existing biotic and abiotic factors determine what kind of species live there. For example, turtles, which require a large amount of water to live in cannot possibly hope to survive in arid ...

John Jacob Astor was a German-American businessman, born in 1763 who made a fortune in the fur business before diversifying his interesting to include the import and export of general merchandise between the United States, China, and Europe. At the time of his death in 1848, Astor was one of the wealthiest men in the country (Youngman, 1908). Astor, who was born poor in Germany, decided to create a new life for himself in the newly independent United States of America. On the voyage between Europe and the U.S., Astor had the fortune of meeting another passenger who introduced ...

Abstract

Describe how Spain, England, France and Dutch’s different economies-along with their justification for expansion-shape their settlements in North America –

The colonization of North America revolves around the need for Spain, England, and Spain to conquer and control the continent. The French and the Spaniards governed through autocratic sovereigns while the English were free to govern themselves as much as they followed the English law. The biggest advantage, therefore, for the English to expand into North America was that they allowed immigration which enabled them to boost their colonial population that helped them to participate more actively and on a wide scale in agricultural activities. The English colonies were established by a royal charter and settled first in Massachusetts ...

Arrogance and ignorance may be called the twin causes of the American Revolution. Trace and discuss the ways in which the British lost their American colonies. Why were the British unable to retain the colonists’ loyalty in the period leading up to the Revolutionary War? The rapid economic growth of the colonies encouraged them to free themselves from the constraints posed by England in the fields of trade, industry and land use. Colonies wanted to get rid of the taxes imposed by the British government. Despite all this, in the 60’s of the 18th century colonial oppression increased. ...

Nowadays the problem of animal slaughtering is becoming more and more pressing. More and more people around the world make a choice to become vegan and not to be a consumer of the industry that promotes cruelty. However, the demand for meat and products of animal origin is still very high. The rights of animals are not preserved to the extent they should be. People forget that animals are living beings and that they can feel pain and suffering just as humans do. If people do not want to give up food they should reduce their consumption of any ...

One of the reasons that persons loyal to the Crown accepted the chance to settle in given areas of North America such as Canada and the different states of the United States is the economic potential of the regions. Despite the people who had declared loyalty to the crown having the chance to be leaders in the regions they were attached in, resettling in areas with more potential than others was always an endearing for settlers to move to the different parts of the colony. The Upper Canada region is one of the areas in which most poor people ...

Report of Hudson’s Bay Company

A #:

Introduction

Founded in 1670 in Canada, Hudson Bay Company (HBC) is the oldest firm in North America, operating in the retail segment across Canada, United States, Germany or Belgium (HBC official website, n.d.). With a long tradition in the fur market, the company adapted to socio-dynamic changes that marked clients’ loss of interest in fur, and adjusted to more modern requests, entering the general retailing business, currently operating in luxury fashion, after acquiring brands such as SAKS Fifth Avenue, Lord & Taylor, but also owning department store (GAMERIA Kaufhof, Galeria INNO, Sportarena), off-price stores (Designer Depot) or furniture, appliances ...

The Dichotomy of Being Vegan or Non-vegan

Many authors have different positions when it comes to whether or not animals should be used as meat to feed human beings. Various grounds have necessitated these arguments. And some of the reasons for the arguments include the moral values as well as the religious values that the authors have and value of the animal as God's creation. Business owners have branded animals as items, without putting into consideration the pain and terror that the cows, sheep, goat and all other animals in the farm undergo. The primary motive as to why the authors responded to the use of ...

Veganism:

Various Types of Vegans

For many people, there are fine lines with how a vegan can be defined. Different from vegetarians and other people who modify their diets to be more plant-based, veganism has some subcategories. One of the defining markers of veganism based on the literature is that a vegan must abstain from all animal products in his or her livelihood. This would include the exclusion of any animal products that a person can wear, such as skins and furs, and products that were tested on animals. In this way, veganism is driven by ethical concern for animal ...

Introduction

American culture is an amalgamation of different cultures over the years. Trade has always been an important part of the United States. European explorers looking for new trade routes to India discovered the new world. After discovering the new world, they quickly established trading posts. Their main aim was to search for gold and other precious resources in this new country. However, their expectations were not fulfilled but they quickly established trading relationships with native tribes near their settlements. Most of these native tribes were hostile at first but they saw the advantage of trading with the settlers. Relationships ...

Individual Project II: Product Costing

The product upon which this project is designed is a beaver hat. Beaver hats have had a long and checkered history as fashion items for the members of the highest social classes as early as the seventeenth century (Jim & Clay, 2016). This was a common fashion item for the Europeans and Americans. The beaver skin was used for making hats for the social elite because it several properties that include a warmth exterior, luxurious fur, and the fact that the fur was very durable (Jim & Clay, 2016). The animal fur also enjoyed the preference of felt makers because the ...

The following information provides the comments on the field notes made about the two primates – the Colobus Monkey and the Western Lowland Gorilla. The Colobus Monkey – a medium sized monkey of moderate build at San Francisco Zoo is found in the Doelger Primate Discovery Center (DPDC). Together with other species such as the pied tamarins, black howler monkey, siamangs and the squirrel monkeys, the colobus monkey is managed at DPDC under the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ Species Survival Plans. These plans are designed to protect those species ...

Introduction

Even though the concept of evolution is a typical narrative, it remains one of the most highly contentious of the topics. Major disagreements persist in the field, particularly when the evolutionary origin and physical modification of primates are the subject matter of discussion. Because of these differences, lots of significant finds in the field have attracted considerable amounts of opposition from experts depending on the species, or the side angle of evolution one recognizes (Ravosa and Dagosto). Disputes often center around locomotion and posture – whether a particular species was fully upright or could walk bipedally, brain size (intelligence), sexuality ...

21st of April 2016

This social movement unites people with different points of view on the relationship between humans and animals. Maximalist approach adherents believe that we need to waiver farming, animal husbandry, hunting and other ways of using animals for human needs. The main idea can be expressed through a verbal formula: "Man and animals are equal and therefore have equal rights; to kill animals is just as crime, as to kill a person." However, this theory does not hold out to any criticism, as the idea of equality between men and animals is highly irrational. Animal protection extremists, or eco-terrorists affect ...

ABSTRACT

Pilot uniforms, particularly in the commercial airline industry, conveys professionalism, competence, and experience. However, historically, uniforms started as a component of safety in aviation, which relied not just in their protective functions but as well in their capability to protect combat pilots from the natural elements of extreme heat and cold, particularly during the era of open cockpits. Protective flight clothing has evolved significantly through decades and even centuries. The sophisticated development in protected flight clothing, however, failed to influence adaption in the civil air transport industry. Using grounded theory through archival literature analysis, the Capstone Project revealed advantages ...

Learning to write an essay is never an easy task. The reason for this is that many individuals truly struggle with how to articulate their organized thoughts onto the blank sheet of paper, which is their canvas. The key to essay writing is organization. That being said, how does one conceptualize the organization of their sophisticated thoughts? The key to essay writing organization is actually creating a roadmap of what your main points are and where you want to go, (“The Five Paragraph Essay”). In order to write the academic standard five paragraph essay, it is usually best to ...

European colonization of the North America began in the 15 century when John Cabot reached the northern part of the island of Newfoundland and declared it the possession of the English crown. The meeting of Europeans with indigenous people of North America was followed by both not equal fight, and interaction. However, as a result of this racial and cultural mixing was born and began to develop a new civilization. The colonists did not find gold in the new lands and therefore, their development differed from the Spanish conquest and at the first stage was peaceful. Before the colonization ...

1- Telling a Strange Tale

- How would you characterize the tone in which the story is told—esp. at the beginning? What is the effect of using this tone for an account of such bizarre incidents? The tone of this story is very clinical and matter-of-fact. The presentation of the situation is always done with a minimum of excess modifiers; the author relies on nouns to tell the story rather than adding to the text with too many adjectives and adverbs. The effect of this is to present the story as perfectly normal and mundane – which is what makes it all the more ...

Introduction

Environmental adaptation is essential to the survival of any animal. In fact, this attribute helps organisms obtain nutrients, build homes, withstand extreme weather conditions, attach mates and enhance their safety (Nelson et al. 2008). With this in mind, it is worth appreciating the fact that polar and grizzly bears have different physical and behavioral characteristics due to environmental adaptation in spite of their species similarities. The polar bear is specially adapted to survive in the cold pole regions. Its body structure and genetic composition have substantially evolved to accommodate the low temperatures and harsh environmental conditions. Its behavioral attributes ...

Introduction to Labor Studies II

Labor and Capital Relationships in the History of Canada I. Theoretical Framework on Labor and Capital With the hopes of representing the relationship between labor and capital in the production process, Cobb and Douglas (1928) used the function Y = ALBK1-B wherein, Y refers to the total production output, L refers to the total number of labor input, K refers to the capital input, and B and 1-B reflects the output elasticities of labor and capital as part of a whole. Supplanting the model set forth by Cobb and Douglas (1928), Creamer (1954) analyzed the trends in capital and labor ...

1. Camouflage in Art and Fashion: The Embodiment of War 1.0 Introduction Shopping malls are a place where war in the popular culture is obvious because of images ranging from the clothing displayed that is made with camouflage-printed fabric to the war movie posters at the cinemas. The culture of war is hard to avoid and somehow the idea of war seems to be comfortable to the consumers of goods and images in the mall. The world resembles the shopping mall in the way war is embodied throughout popular culture. War shapes our bodies while defining space and identities ...

Introduction:

History is rich in unintended consequences. The commercial fur trade was established by early contact between Indians and Europeans who were exploiting the cod fisheries in New Foundland, Canada. Indians traded the pelts of animals, such as beavers and minks, for knives and iron-based products in exchange for textiles (Nassaney 41). The exchange was initially disorganized until the 16th century, when fur became a sought marketable commodity. Most of the trade occurred in Canada, but some activity took place in areas around River Mississippi and within the Rocky Mountains. The first companies to engage in the activity were of ...

ABSTRACT

Safety in aviation relied historically not just in the protective features of the airplane itself but as well in the capability of flight clothing to protect pilots from the natural elements of extreme heat and cold, particularly during the era of open cockpits. Protective flight clothing has evolved significantly through decades and even centuries. The sophisticated development in protected flight clothing, however, failed to influence adaption in the civil air transport industry. Using grounded theory and archival literature analysis, the Capstone Project revealed advantages and disadvantages of protective flight clothing, its evolution through history primarily from the British military ...

Leather jackets in the fashion industry are marketed to men and women who want to dress cool and edgy. Many of the jackets are actually designed for men’s wear, but there are several stores that will sell the jacket to women, and make women’s designs. The leather jacket is designed to be “long a staple of off-duty-model style, those are pieces backed up by decades’ worth of ineffable cool,” (Anderson). Leather jackets are normally worn in the spring and fall. This paper will look into leather jackets in the fashion industry. In reality, many of the fashion ...

The Hudson River Valley region is thickly populated today, and it is hard to imagine that the region had lesser than 100,000 Native Americans before the arrival of the Europeans. French fur trappers and traders found their way into the region by the middle of the sixteenth century. When Henry Hudson explored the land and named the river as Hudson, he claimed the land for the Dutch. Later, the tiny Dutch settlement surrendered to the Royal Navy and attracted a large number of settlers from New England. Local natives and traders allied themselves with the new developments but ...

Albrecht Durer was a versatile and gifted German artist of the Renaissance period. The brilliant painter left a strong impact on the medium of printmaking and commercial centers in Europe. The artist is known to create a number of striking self-portraits that assert his creative genius (Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528) 2016). His Self-Portrait wearing a coat with fur collar is done on a wooden panel in 1500. The essay discusses the Self-Portrait as well as the importance of the gaze in the portrait that is considered the most personal and complex. The self-portrait was done in 1500 was ...

The point of view is a perspective from which the author chooses a narrator to tell a story. The third-person narrators are usually observers but not characters in the story. Kate Chopin in “The Story of an Hour” uses the third-person omniscient narrative, which captures the reader and makes him sympathetic to Louise Mallard. The reader has a possibility to see how the woman interacts with other characters, her thoughts, and feelings. Indeed, the omniscient narrator is able to tell the story of Louise’s hour of evolution and freedom but the happiness lasted only for an hour before ...

Part 1 - Race in Mexico and Peru Native Americans were comprised of indigenous tribes such as Maya, Inca and Aztecs. They inhabited largely Mexico and Peru. Before the arrival of Spanish conquistadors, the ancient civilizations lived in peace and harmony and were able to establish local empires that were rich in culture and traditions. With the arrival of Spaniards in 15-16th century, the civilizations were deemed to suffer either from diseases brought externally or by bloody conquests. With the engagement of Europeans, the African slave trade was introduced to the American continent. The population was mixed ...

The book, “Venus in fur,” tells a story about love, dominance and slavery in a person’s feelings. It is based upon the imaginations of Server in, who is weirdly in love with a statue of Venus, the goddess of love. The fur in this case symbolizes power and dominance, where the narrator identified with the cruelty and power in a woman. The character meets Wanda, with whom he falls in love. The character is in love to the point of delivering himself to become a slave. At first, he does not look at Wanda in a sexually taken way because he still has the ...

- What was the Dutch West India Company and why and when did it send people to New Netherland?

The Dutch West India Company (WIC) constituted Dutch merchants engaged in trade with other countries or regions outside Europe. The charter expanded through its establishment of trading posts in other countries as well as colonization of territories and other trade monopolies. Dutch merchants traded various goods and commodities such as food and spices, and alcohol and tobacco among others, and also largely participated in slave trade. During the early and mid-1600s, WIC established a post for fur trade in New ...

Classical conditioning is the process of learning whereby an unconditioned stimulus is paired with a conditional stimulus. It is a process of behavior modification in which the subject responds to a previously neutral stimulus in a desired manner when it is repeatedly presented along with an unconditional stimulus. There have been various speculations by different literature on the possibility of conditioning emotional responses, but the experimental evidence has usually been lacking. There has been a suggestion that there must be a way in which stimuli can call out emotions. John B. Watson and Rosalie Rayner decided to put the matter to test through the little ...

INTRODUCTION

Human beings have always had a fascination with primate species; in them, many see similar morphology, behaviors and interactions most reminiscent of humans. This has spawned years of endless dedicated study and the development of a new anthropological branch, primatology. These are people dedicated to the understanding of how primates live, how they structure their society, how they learn and how intelligent they are? The great apes, like Chimpanzees and Gorillas have recieved a great deal of attention, but they are not the only primate species of great interest to primatologists, the capuchin monkey is, as well. Capuchin monkeys got their name ...

Rita Dove and Katherine Mansfield were not contemporaries, nor do they write in the same genre. But two works, one from each author, are worth comparing and contrasting since both have a similar underlying theme, which leads the reader to a contrary conclusion. “DayStar” is a poem by Rita Dove that has to do with the life of a busy mother who is only able to leave her perpetual duties for an hour a day. Katherine Mansfield’s “Miss Brill” is about a woman who is an avid people watcher who uses her avid imagination to find meaning in every exchange happening in earshot ...

The cruelty with which animals in China are treated to suit clothing designer’s interests is a matter of contention. These animals are slaughtered and killed in ways that evoke feelings of empathy across the world (Spencer, 2006). People who love animals especially the furred animals are hysterically moved by the nature of treatment these animals receive (Reno, 2014). Most traumatizing is the indifference with which these designers treat these animals without being mindful of the suffering and misery they go through. Thus, from a sociological perspective, this issue of animal abuse in the clothing industry in China has a negative impact ...

Why are trade barriers so common in the global market? How have free trade policies been promoted by developed countries since 1950s? and How have free trade policies been promoted by states since 1950s. Trade barriers pertain to restriction and conditions of legal nature that would encourage proper means of trade. In turn discourage all other means of businesses and trades that are counterproductive and not in the spirit of the global businesses and market operations. Other purposes of trade barriers are to bring about uniformity in operations, provide for clear rules of engagement and standardized operations and ...

Wonderland was a village that nobody wanted to be associated with unless he or she had a unique magic. As the name suggests, this village was full of wonders and everything, people, animals, birds, trees and stones, was extraordinary. Every person who lived in this village had to be in possession of a certain charm in order survive. Village elders introduced a law that ensured any child born without magic would be killed because chances of survival for such a child were limited. Many expectant women ran away from the village in fear of their children being murdered. I personally do not believe in ...

If you would be a rabbit, or a dog, or a caw how would communicate your sorrow? How would you persuade the others to treat you well? They have no voice of their own; they are able of no formal communication, other than their gestures and their onomatopoeic sounds. But that does not mean that they feel nothing. PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of the Animals) knows the hardships the animals go through and it develops consistent programs for assuring the animals’ wellbeing. Although its efforts are massive, it cannot do it on its own. Human involvement is needed for further ...

There are several agencies and organizations that are linked with the welfare and protection of the tiger. These organizations work to increase ...

Since the ancient history, people have been wearing clothes made from leather and animal fur. One cannot imagine a cave man without a small piece of leather hanging around his waist. Then, it was the only material that they could use for making clothes. However, since the modern ages, leather and fur coats have become the synonyms for wealth and the branding mark for many fashion designers. On the other hand, the planet is facing with the extinction of animal species that are killed only for its fur or skin. Leather and fur coats should be outlawed so that the civilization ...

During Italian Renaissance the promotion of cultural and artistic patronage responded directly to specific needs of the Court as a new institution. Small regional states emerged from the fragmentation of the communal and feudal regime as a new political subject directly delegated by a higher authority such as the imperator or that the pope. Because of this structural nature of their power, the Italian princes were constantly looking for support, justification and recognition, both inside and especially outside of the boundaries of the territory ruled. In fact, the political activity of a prince would not existed without a specific focus on artistic and ...

All the three major categories of organisms viz. Producers, consumers and decomposers are abundantly present in a tropical forest ecosystem. Primary producers are the autotrophs that can capture the light energy and manufacture their own food. The major producer plants in a tropical forest are ferns, bananas, vines, epiphytes and grasses. Consumers are the heterotrophs that cannot synthesize their own food and are dependent on other organisms. They are further classified into primary, secondary and tertiary consumers. The primary consumers include herbivore animals, birds and insects including macay, parrot, sloth, bats, etc. These organisms directly feed on green plants (producers). Primary ...

Fur trade excited the investigation of the vast spaces of the new homeland. Fur trade was a necessity or vitally important task for colonists, so it took a great part of ...

My reference company is Apple Inc., which currently trades at 535.73 dollars a share. I think that the futures of 100 shares of Apple Inc. are currently worth 60,000 dollars. This means that Apple shares to be delivered to me in a year’s time are worth 600 dollars each. This is because Apple has a great potential and I expect that its shares will appreciate in the coming months. However, I do not expect the share price for Apple Inc. to appreciate by huge margins because I strongly believe that market projections have been undervaluing the company’s share price ...

Introduction

Family medicine is a branch of medicine concerned with delivering health care services at the family level. Unlike other medical fields which with the patient individually, family medicine practitioners must incorporate the other family members in the delivery of health services.
