For a long time, art and culture of the peoples of Africa remained a mystery to the rest of the world. The study of culture and art of the peoples of the African continent has discovered their unique traditions and way of life. Masks and weapons make the basis of their culture. These so-called artifacts are present in every village and every African city. It is impossible to imagine Africa without masks; they reflect the uniqueness and originality of the local customs and beliefs. Unfortunately, African wooden sculpture is poorly preserved in the hot and humid climate. That is ...

Video in Opera Stage

Introduction Advances in technology and the corresponding creation of digital technologies have significantly impacted the performing arts (Poole & Ho, 2011). Opera has not escaped the technological advancements and as such, new forms of opera have emerged in both digital and virtual formats (Symonds & Karantonis, 2013). Salter (2010) explains that since the 1990s, the scenography of opera has emerged with technological advancements transforming stages into video and monitor accompaniments. The obvious payoff is an enhanced experiential, virtual reality of the opera’s stage. The new technologies blur the lines between the opera’s stage and the motion picture common in ...

It was a beautiful sunny day with white clouds sailing in the blue sky. I kept walking enjoying the breeze blowing in the face. Lost in my thoughts, I suddenly realized it was very dark and I was lost in forest so deep where I could not even see the stars. Apparently I walked into a dimensional portal that transported me into a different place. I am no longer in a dark forest but I was now floating in the middle of a galaxy. The short time that I could not see the stars was replaced with the most ...

BODY CAMERAS TO BENEFIT POLICE AND CITIZENS

There is a sustained perception by minority groups such as African-Americans that the law enforcement officers treat discriminately. This has increased incidences of police involvement against the demographics. However, the introduction and use of body cameras come as a panacea towards bringing to an end the unprecedented cases of police brutality and use of excessive force. In addition, civil suits concerning police brutality launched by African Americans are expected to reduce the involvement of body cameras. According to the H.Res.16, the wearing of body cameras by local law enforcement agencies while serving the communities encourages transparency and protects both ...

Discrimination legislation

Even in modern day society, issues of religious discriminations still mar working environments and that should be an issue of concern. Different adherents are affected by what managers in different communities decide to be the basis of their employment terms and conditions. Rather than have a singular platform that allows more people to appreciate the changing strategies as part of addressing their religious discriminations that appear as part of addressing legal policies as defined by the constitution. Based on Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, religious conditions should not be included if the applicant’s religion ...

I cannot but agree with the statement that all Texas K-12 public schools should adopt a school uniform policy. It is obviously of use to have school uniform policy to be implemented in all Texas K-12 public schools for a number of reasons.

Requiring students to wear school uniform affects the learning environment; moreover, it influences students’ behavior, motivation and academic achievements.

I feel really confident of this because school uniform policy would make it possible not to differentiate between all Texas K-12 public schools students or between classmates belonging to various backgrounds. Wearing school uniform would also make students focus on the learning process, not their clothes or their interrelationship with each other. It becomes not important ...

Mild forgetfulness is common in many people as they age. However, memory loss, especially with younger individuals, can be a sign of a more serious problem called amnesia. This condition is defined as the “inability to recall information that is stored in memory” (Nordqvist). Often times, people with amnesia are depicted in contemporary movies, such as Lucy from the film 50 First Dates. However, the stories of people with amnesia is not as easy and funny as it seems. In order to get a better understanding of this disorder, it is imperative to take a look at ...

Children have long been a target of consumerism and marketing. Their young, immature minds are taken as the ideal grounds for expanding businesses and victimizing them into becoming the future consumers and materialists of the country. However, it is true that marketing to children is a gigantic social problem which also encompasses ethical and moral standards of individuals as well as of the growing children. There are many factors which promote child consumerism and there are several repercussions of this action. Children are individuals who need to be kept away from these environmental pressures and be allowed to grow ...

Indian culture has always been one of the oldest and most complex cultures in the world.

The country is so populated that it manages to combine hundreds of distinct cultures within itself. Of course, Indian clothing is something that represents the whole country. One can barely find a person who wouldn’t recognize an Indian dress among other cultures.

Complications of Removable Implant Supported Prostheses

Introduction The two main complications that result from removable implants are biological and mechanical/technical complications. There is need to assess and interpret data on the incidence of complications, both biological and technical with caution. Berglundh, Persson, and Klinge (2002), found that implant loss was the most common problem, while technical complications were observable in about 60-80% and biological complications – 40-60% of the studies they evaluated. According to Sadowsky (2007), there are no specifications on the length, distribution, and number of implants; however the suggestion for non-palatal coverage designs should be a minimum of 4 implants. In case of risk ...

Background

In 1931, The Empire of Japan attacked and took over Manchuria, a resources-rich Chinese region. Japan took over Manchuria because it wanted to take control of the natural resources found there especially oil (Inada 11). The U.S refused to recognize Japan’s jurisdiction over Manchuria arguing that the control was established through force. The U.S had close trade relations with China, and it wanted to protect its interests in the country. Japan attacked China severally so as to weaken it from claiming back Manchuria. In 1937, the U.S started considering how it could stop Japan’s quest to expand ...

Dear Ms. Jones: I believe that Halloween should be a holiday which promotes diversity and does not offend members of the minorities. Therefore, cultural appropriation is not acceptable because it diminishes the values of a certain group of people. The misrepresentation fosters stereotypes that are related to one particular culture and people are entitled to have diversity within that culture at the same time. It is best not to dress up as a member of a different cultural group than one’s own because it ...

Superstitions in American culture

Superstitions refer to belief in magic and fear of the unknown, which leads individuals to adopt irrational behaviors. The influence of superstitions on individuals has remained strong throughout human history, but this influence has been declining with increased urbanization and education of the masses.

However, some superstitions remain prevalent in American culture and other industrialized societies. During Halloween it is traditionally believed that it is a period that common myths, omens and folklore have more weight for the people who ...

However, there are noticeable differences in beliefs about death and afterlife, human definition, and the meaning of human history. These beliefs structure their worldviews ...

However, many Muslim women are not allowed to happily adjust to their new surroundings nor are they able to maintain their cultural norms and spiritual beliefs ...

Question One. Many sociologists have developed contrasting theories based on their understandings of the ways that people interact. All sociologists understand social philosophy differently, and Cooley, Mead and Goffman have all contributed differently to the issue of social interaction between people in every society. While certain theories are more controversial, and all are based on different understandings, each has its own important place in an overall understanding of human interaction and behavior. These sociological perspectives can be used to frame and understand human and societal behavior. Understanding these theories gives researchers a basis to understand how self and identity ...

The Minoan Civilization was the forerunner of the ancient Greek culture which emerged from the island of Crete. The island of Crete was isolated from the rest of the Greek mainland by the Sea of Crete to the north and by the Mediterranean Sea to the west. The island with its mountainous rugged terrain and white sand coastal areas proved to be a great spot for international affairs and trade routes especially for the European, Africa, and Asia Minor merchants. Because of its isolated landscape, many scholars have proposed the existence of cultural interactions between Cretan civilization and those ...

Several studies have been conducted by different companies trying to look into the issue of whether the helmets have any correlation ...

Belfast is one of the world’s most ancient cities, its location at the mouth of the River Lagan having been continuously occupied since about 2,000 years BCE. There are good reasons for this. Courtesy of the Gulf Stream, the site has a mild climate that seldom gets above 65 degrees F. or below 35 degrees F. Its northern latitude gives it one of the world’s shortest winter, and longest summer, days at the biannual solstices. It rarely snows.

The American society is an amalgamation of hundreds of nationalities living together and thriving in a world equally. America is known all around the globe as a symbol of freedom and independence. It is a country where people can be what they want to be without the fear of being judged or condemned. This thought gives the presumption that people of all faiths, ethnicities and creeds can coexist peacefully without having to face criticism and hatred. However, this is different in the case where one group and religious minority in the country targeted and ostracized for their views. The ...

I have been studying in the United States since 2009 and have observed that Muslim women who wear the hijab in US society are taken as the chief representatives of Islam, far more than Muslim men or those Muslim women who dress without it. In fact, research has shown that women who wear the hijab are often viewed as fervent Muslims and even Islamic ‘fanatics’ as they are easily differentiated from non-Muslims in the society (Ebaugh, 2005). In effect, those who do not choose to cover themselves or their heads will never be judged on their appearance, occupation, faith ...

In a 1979 piece titled “In Defense of Masks” by Kenneth Gergen, the eminent psychologist talks about the difficulty of selecting from multiple voices made against a self. Gergen argues that multiple selves exist in one person, and each self makes claims and demands on its subject. Gergen suggests that multiple selves is a pragmatic adaption of the self. The main argument of Gergen is that people tend to have multiple identities represented in the form of social masks, but that this does not make our interactions inherently superficial because of the underlying nature of our basic identities themselves. ...

It would be difficult for one to survive in a complete isolation from other people and therefore, it is a well-known fact, that people tend to socialize, interchange their experience and knowledge, cooperate and communicate in different spheres of their life.

Once a person identifies him- or herself with a community, accepts the existing norms and prescriptions in this group, he or she becomes a member of it. Fashion is a particular phenomenon, which is directly connected and dependent ...

Writings on Hinduism have been remarkably expanded in the past decade by anthropological research which focuses on the real nature of religious practices, including the underlying philosophy, and examines the setting or environment as well as the written literature. Edward Harper, in his article Ritual Pollution as an Integrator of Caste and Religion (1964), vividly showed that the hierarchical relationship of the concepts of 'purity' and 'pollution', which are the foundational elements of caste, is based on a paradigm of society wherein different groups are brought together by the common pursuit of religion or rituals for the gods.

A smaller sized sensor node being powered by a rechargeable battery would then be developed based on the newly identified electrode positions. A dynamic method of controlling power is also automatically installed in the sensor node for ...
