One could argue that old-fashioned attitudes regarding gender and "traditional" gender roles are becoming obsolete. In many parts of the world women head major corporations and hold high positions of power—positions historically seen as being of the male domain. In turn, many men freely choose to be "stay-at-home-dads" or enter professions that were once considered to be "feminine." Naturally, our contemporary views of gender and gender roles illustrate the social progress we have made as one human culture. Yet, prehistoric and ancient works of art tell a different story—one that reinforces old-fashioned gender roles (and maybe for good reason). Prehistoric and ancient representations of gender illustrate the social norms of their periods. Naturally, these works of art were produced by people whose lives and values were quite different from ours. Yet, the views of gender presented by these works of art are, despite our contemporary sensibilities, are still very recognizable. Write an essay that analyzes the representation of gender and gender roles as seen in Woman of Willendorf (prehistoric: c. 25,000–20,000 B.C.E.) and Kouros / Statue of Standing Youth (ancient Greece: c. 580 B.C.E.). .

One of the hallmarks of qualitative research is writing detailed observations when collecting data. For this assignment, take a notebook with you to a public setting where social interaction takes place (restaurant, public library, public park, shopping mall, airport, etc.). Observe for an hour, then write up your notes into a descriptive vignette, looking for patterns in events and actions. Observe as though you are a stranger in a new country, trying to make sense of the action around you. Describe how things look, smell, sound, feel, etc. Be as descriptive as possible. Write up your observations into a vignette with the intention of having readers feel as though they are in the environment you choose to observe. Do not be shy to talk to people and ask what they are doing for more information. REMEMBER to concentrate on observing the context only (NO PERSONAL OPINIONS)!

One is the personal plot that unfolds around the relationships between the characters—O thello, Iago, Desdemona, Cassio, Rodrigo, and Emelia. The other plot is the more public one in which Venice is at war with the Turks. How do these plots intersect, and do they overlap in terms of some of the main themes of the play? For instance, don’t overlook the line in Act I, iii, regarding where the Turks are headed in their ships—“or this cannot be, by no assay of reason: 'tis a pageant,to keep us in false gaze.” .

All other aspects of APA (citations, list of references, correct spacing & formatting, etc.) are required to receive full credit You must engage (not just agree, disagree, or repost you own posting) at least two of your classmates in the discussions each week to receive full credit Each question should be researched and supported with some peer reviewed sources other than or in addition to your textbook Discussion posts are assessed on a rubric with equal weight given to 5 assessable items: Comprehension, Timeliness, Engagement, Critical Thinking, and APA/Mechanics Digital Forensics There are three primary goals with digital forensics: Collect electronically stored information in a sound, defensible manner, Analyze the results of the collections, and Present the findings either in formal legal proceedings or less formally to inform a client. Electronic evidence can be short-lived and fragile. It needs to be collected in a defensible, methodological manner to preserve it accurately, and to withstand scrutiny in legal proceedings. (chain of custody) Electronic evidence can be highly probative, both as it appears to users, and behind the scenes. There is a lot of information that a computer user never sees (e.g. metadata, logs, registry entries). This behind-the-scenes evidence may provide a wealth of information about who did what when and where. Forensic analysts are trained to preserve, collect and interpret this kind of evidence. Some digital files can be recovered, even if a user has tried to delete them. Locate a famous case where digital forensics played a role, and share it with the class. Discuss how digital forensics was critical in cracking the case. Examples are listed below, but you can’t use them – find your own. Famous cases cracked with digital forensics Be it a text message, Google searches or GPS information, a person’s digital footprint can provide plenty of ammunition in the courtroom. Here are a few cases where digital forensics played a critical role in bringing about justice . 1. The BTK Killer, Dennis Rader Perhaps the most famous case to be solved through digital forensics is that of the BTK Killer Dennis Rader , with “BTK” referring to his MO of “bind, torture and kill.” Rader enjoyed taunting police during his killing sprees in Wichita, KS. But this also proved to be his fatal flaw. A floppy disk Rader sent to police revealed his true identity. He was soon arrested, pled guilty and was put behind bars for life, much to the relief of his long-terrorized community. 2. Dr. Conrad Murray’s lethal prescriptions Another recent case solved with digital forensics was that of Dr. Conrad Murray, personal physician of Michael Jackson . Digital forensics played a crucial role in the trial. After Jackson passed away unexpectedly in 20.

One of the most important filmmakers of the twentieth century to release such popular films such as Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, and The Breakfast Club was someone by the name of John Hughes. Born February 18 in 1950, he sadly died 11 years ago due to a heart attack. Brought up in Michigan, John Hughes started off by creating jokes for already famous comedians. He then began to capture the interest of adolescents in the 1980’s with his work. Movies such as The Breakfast Club;Sixteen Candles;Ferris Bueller's Day Off;Plane, Trains, and Automobiles; and Home Alone gained a huge amount of popularity over time. These movies usually ended in a good way but not without a struggle along the way. One of John Hughes most popular film’s, titled The Breakfast club takes place in a school library setting as the main 5 students are tasked with learning and understanding each other. Understanding their dislikes for teachers, parents, as well as going through the peer pressure of their respective social groups. This film highly resembles Hughes' work as it reaches toward the best of society with all different types of popular culture which explains why the movie takes place in a library, with the students surrounded by art, books, and statues. Hughes was very well known as being the king of highschool movies. All of his work dealt with teenagers and the issues they dealt with. Ferris Bueller Ferris Buellers was one of Hughes' first comedies, and it is the most original movie about high school that has ever been made. There wasn't a movie like it before it was made, and since many attempts have been made to recapture what Ferris Buellers brought to the table. Unfortunately, that is impossible. A big part of Ferris Bueller's magic was the originality of Hughes' vision. He looked at teenagers and high school life from a completely new perspective. Hughes created a world where everything worked out for the hero, and everyone can identify with that. .

On Stretching Time (250 Words) “The given paradigms by which we are to understand and use academic freedom isolate utterances and individuals to insist that the contexts that matter are professional and institutional. But if we stretch time, the potent context of modern nationalism/settler colonialism becomes strongly palpable.” Kandice Chuh argues that it is imperative for us to “stretch time”: to be able to place utterances and individuals in the academic context in the broader context of modern nationalism and settler colonialism. What is something someone can only understand about you by bringing in a larger context? Write that, and also the larger context needed to understand. .

On p. 98-99 of Music and Capitalism, Tim Taylor writes, “These and other Western star musicians employ other common discourses about the musicians with whom they worked and the musics they appropriated or collaborated with. The dominant ideology and discourse are that non-Western musics are a kind of natural resource that is available for the taking, though these acts of appropriation are frequently tempered by the Western star’s appearance alongside the non-Western musicians in publicity photographs, on recordings, and in liner notes.” Review your notes from class about important words, or look these up as necessary: discourse, appropriation, collaboration, ideology Then, write a response that does the following: Explain: what does this quotation mean in your own words? How does the Graceland example fit in with what Tim Taylor is talking about here ? Think of another time that musicians with different power positions are part of a musical performance or recording (you can use one in the chapter, like Buena Vista Social Club, Deep Forest, “The Lion Sleeps Tonight,” “Return to Innocence,” “El Condor Pasa,” or Talking Timbuktu , or one not in the reading that interests you). Describe the relationship between the musicians, and argue whether you think the album/performance is appropriation, collaboration, sampling, or something else. If the artists have different positionalities in terms of race, gender, and/or country of origin, comment on the effect this has. Give your opinion on ethical questions raised in this particular situation. Your response should be about 3-5 paragraphs (minimum 12 sentences) in length. For part c, you will need to reference and cite an additional source (i.e. web site, album, academic source, news article, etc.) .

On 1 January 2016, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development — adopted by world leaders in September 2015 at an historic UN Summit — officially came into force. These goals address every topic of concern we have discussed this semester. Over the coming decade, it's the hope of UN member nations (which includes the U.S.) that the SDGs will universally be applied to all, countries will mobilize efforts to end all forms of poverty, fight inequalities and tackle climate change, while ensuring that no one is left behind. With the SDGs as your reference, answer these questions: Are any of the 17goals from the UN website particularly unrealistic—describe, in detail, why you think so (or not). Which of the 17 goals do you believe is the highest priority for the world and why? Cite specific examples from class content, discussions and assessments. .

On September 11, 2001 the U.S. changed forever. While the U.S. had suffered attacks before, nothing to this scale and magnitude. The attacks were aimed at highly populated areas (NYC) and homes for the government and armed forces (Washington, D.C. and the Pentagon). The World Trade Centers were an ideal target for their height and location. For your own post, consider vulnerable populations. What constitutes vulnerability in populations living in disaster prone areas? Consider NYC, these attacks were neither the first nor the last attacks NYC has suffered. Why is NYC such a hub for terrorist attacks? Try considering other areas, other than NYC, and provide an example from a recent disaster. Unfortunately, there are many. You can discuss man-made disasters or natural disasters. 250 Words .

On Dumpster Diving meets Aphrodite As we discuss narratives this week, let's talk about description, particularly sensory description (smells, sounds, sights, tastes and touch) and using specific details (instead of generic details) to make things come to life. So begin with your first reaction to these pieces. What moved you or interested you or surprised you? As a writer learning from other writers, what did either of these pieces do well that you might want to do as well? Then, in addition to talking about these pieces as ways to use the personal to make a point, I want you to consider HOW they are engaging the senses and "putting you into the scenes" with the specific use of details to further their personal narratives. Did this work (or not) for you and why? Responses to at least 2 posts (in this thread) must be up by Friday at midnight. Remember: An original post should be roughly 200 words. .
