Japanese Anime
... first small robot of Nippon animation and later on, many young authors will be inspired by Tezuka's drawings. In the same year we also had the first prototype of a giant robot: Tetsujin 28 go created by Mitsuteru Yokoyama. It was however poorly realized and didn't earn too much success but it's important to remember because it set the basis for the so called 'Robot Anime' a new genre that will flourish around the '70s when Go Nagai will create the best Robot Anime Series ever done: Mazinger Z, Great Mazinger, UFO Robot Grendizer, Getter Robot and GetterRobotG.
Mazinger Z is one of the most popular Japanese mangas of all time, which was originally written by Go Nagai ...

The Stanislavsky Method
... portray the unique inner world of a character. He felt that once an actor felt what the character was feeling, the emotion would then manifest itself physically, making the performance believable. This idea was
the basis for the method that Stanislavsky created, now the most common acting style in Western theatre.
Stanislavsky’s method begins with relaxation. He called in an “occupational disease.” One of Stanislavsky’s most famous students, Lee Strasberg, believed it to be the actor’s worst enemy. The exercise Stanislavsky developed for relaxation is meant to
help the actor find hidden tension in all muscles of the body, most importantly the face, where most m ...

E.J Lennox And Building Of A Courthouse
... Sackville
brownstone from New Brunswick and greystone from a quarry near Orangeville.
The stones are decorated with elaborate carvings of floral and geometric
designs, hideous faces and caricatures. The complete building cost the city
2.5 million dollars which is almost nine times greater that the original
target price which was set at 300,000 dollars. Many people complained and
said that the cost of building the hall could have been used on practical
schemes such as sewer improvage, water supplies and other important city
needs. This mind blowing amount of money encouraged many investigations and
lawsuits. One affair being in which the architects name was revea ...

Violence In Rap Music
... some kind of connection between both of their deaths? I believe that rap music was never violent until "gangsta" rap came about. What sparked this change and who was behind it? I want to explore "gangsta" rap from the beginning until now. I want to research the major players in the rap game, who they are and what some of their lyrics are saying.
Today our society is bursting at the seams with violence. There is fighting in other countries like Kosovo, shootings in schools, and violence on television. In my opinion, though, nothing has a greater effect on the youth of America than rap music. However, this isn’t a new issue, there has been for years. Such a ...

Witches
... John Hale, who witnessed Jones's hanging in Boston
when he was a boy, later said that she "was suspected partly because that after
some angry words passing between her and her Neighbors, some mischief befell
such neighbors in their Creatures, or the like: [and] partly because some things
supposed to be bewitched, or have a Charm upon them, being burned, she came to
the fire and seemed concerned." (P.20) Hale included neither of these charges in
his list of the evidence presented against Jones, but suggested that the crimes
had to do with her medical practice. She was accused of having a "malignant
touch," Hale noted, and her medicines were said to have "extraor ...

Salem Witch Trials
... who soon showed the same symptoms, such as loss of appetite and sickness. A belief quickly spread over Salem and throughout the state that evil spirits are being seen in Salem. Terror took possession of the minds of nearly all the people, and the dread made the affliction spread widely. "The afflicted, under the influence of the witchery, "admitted to see the forms of their tormentors with their inner vision" (Miller 1082). and would immediately accuse some individual seen with the devil. At times the afflicted and the accused became so numerous thatno one was safe from suspicion and its consequences. Even those who were active in the prosecutions became objec ...

Changes During The 1950s-1990s
... eager to start a family. The vogue was to have fourth, fifth and even sixth children.
Although this was not the case for all women some decided to remain in the work force, although they were not given equal pay as men. Other changes in family roles were that men were taking up jobs which were considered to be only for women such as. Flight attendants, secretaries and nurses. Furthermore in the 1950s there was an increase in teenage delinquency, due to the fact that teenagers were trying to find ways to express them selves and be noticed. They also did this through the music they listened to and through the movie stars and films that were made.

Causes Of The Civil War
... Their
views were Free Soil, Free Men and Free Labor. The Republicans were anti-
South but they were in not abolitionists. They believed that slavery was a
flawed system that made the south ineffective and because the North's free
labor system was superior it must be guarded from southerners.
When the Republican candidate, Abraham Lincoln was elected in 1860,
the South felt threatened, and because expansion was vital to the survival
of slavery they also felt their way of life was being threatened. Because
slavery was such an important part of Southern society, the South felt that
they could not survive without it. That's why they were not willing to

... inspection, one sees that the two sides, although very similar, are nothing alike.
On one side, there sits a limp body staring at the reflection of herself in the water that she sinks in. The setting sun glistens off the back of her head, but she just wallows in grim depression and boredom. The canyons trap her in the barren wasteland as she sits motionless, without movement, struggle, or life. This mysterious figure looks so vacant that it might as well be dead. Nothing is happening on this side, so one's attention is directed to the other.
On the other side, a blue decaying hand emerges from the ground with ants crawling on it, possibly making the ...

Comparison Of Two Paintings
... time before the Somnambulist Mall Walking. From the style of the outfit the men wear, they seem ancient but half-modernized. The men wear those bucket hats that remind me of Charlie Chaplin's time.
The main similarity that I find in these two paintings is the floating bodies in the sky. Both give a disturbing feeling when I look at them. Perhaps because floating bodies remind me of ghosts and spirits. However, in Somnambulist Mall Walking, there are women and men, whereas in Golconda only men are involved in the painting, the same men with the same outfits repeated over and over again.
The obvious difference in these two paintings is that in Somnambulist Mall Wa ...
