Essay on The Effects of Plagues
The Effects of Plagues
The effects of the plagues differed from one region to another according to the forms of agriculture practised and local economic conditions. So we
should be very careful about making broad generalisations. As one might expect the kill rate was lower in the countryside than it was in the towns,
but it was still significant. In a selection of Essex manors hit in 1349 the range was between 25% at Market Roding rising to 54% at High Easter.
Medieval Essex was highly manorialised and close to the main trade routes out of London and along the Essex coast and therefore more vulnerable.
Overall rural mortality is thought to have been around 30% for those parts of Europe affected ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In the following autumn no one could get a reaper for less than 8d with food, a mower for less than 12d with food. For this reason many crops perished
in the fields for lack of harvesters. But in the year of the plague, as is explained above, there was so great and abundance of all kinds of corn that they
were scarcely regarded. "
Knighton also records a dramatic fall in the price . " A great cheapness of all things for fear of death, for few took any account of riches or of
possessions of any kind."
It was a sad irony that the harvest of 1348 was a good one, but in many places there was either no one to reap it, or those who had survived were so
shocked that they were unable to organise themselves for the harvest. Many decided that it was only a matter of time before they too would die from
the plague and so decided to enjoy themselves whilst they could. What happened in the Siena of Agnolo di Tura was probably true of most of Europe:
"each person lived according to his own caprice, and everyone tended to seek pleasure in eating and drinking, hunting, catching birds, and gaming"
The most obvious consequence of the economic crisis was that the population explosion of the thirteenth century was reversed. At first by increasingly

Understanding Inequalities Of London 's Life Expectancy...
'Understanding inequalities in London's life expectancy and healthy life expectancy' is a document that summarises data, that has been collected over
various years, by the Public Health Outcomes Framework (PHOF) in regards to life expectancy and inequalities (London Knowledge and Intelligence
Team. 2014).
The data within this document could be considered as a valid and reliable outlook into London's life expectancy because it is a published document by
Public Health England which is a health organisation. The publisher is reputable and therefore it is deemed as being trustworthy (Public Health
England. 2013). Furthermore the information has been collected and analysed by professionals. Validity of the document is reinforced as the data
given does reflect life expectancy within a given borough (Office For National Statistics. Unknown).
The information and statistics they have gathered are more than likely correct however there are various factors that could have influenced the
results. Average income within an area has been gathered by tax authority records and is shown within the 'Slope Index', although people may be
guilty of tax avoidance or the answers they give may be false due to mistakes which could cause the results to be considerably different to the reality
(TaxAid. 2015). A census may also be responsible for the data gathered, however a census is only conducted every ten years so the results may change

Essay on London's Economy
King (1990, page x) argues that the dissolution of empire has been critical to the growth of world cities. How far does this apply to
London?
Modern patterns of development and growth have been shaped and influenced by the historical context of colonialism. Within this context relationships
between capitalist and pre–capitalist states or colonies helped forge a world economy, which would later lead to processes of globalisation and the
current economic world order.
Expansion in the world economy has been exacerbated by the freer flow of labour, goods, services and capital, which are features of the post–war,
post–colonial world. King contends that these factors have been "critical to the growth of world cities." (King, 1990: ... Show more content on

H.G Wells described his impression of imperialLondon:
"It's a great place. Immense. The richest town in the world, the biggest port, the greatest manufacturing town, the imperial city – the centre of
civilisation, the heart of the world." (Wells H.G, 1908:73)
In this essay I will be discussing the significance of King's argument with reference to the city of London. Imperial London will be introduced
followed by a discussion of London's decline and its patterns of modern growth in order to ascertain how far King's argument applies to the City.
Different types of growth are included, but emphasis is largely placed on the geographical and economic dimensions of London's change and
development.
London's imperial role was crucial to the expansion of its fortunes.
Growth was inextricably linked with the colonial empire and took place in several key areas during the colonial interlude. London's Docklands
represented a melting pot of colonial trade and commerce and were a critical facet of London's (and Great Britain's) economy that fed aspects of
growth into the city centre and enabled it to thrive. In
1700 London handled 80% of the country's imports and 69% of its exports. Trade with colonies in the Caribbean, Southeast Asia and the
Indian Sub–Continent brought in tea, china, rice, tobacco and spices to the City and in 1799 the West India Company began to build docks on the Isle

Public transportation provides numerous positive attributes to the community at large. It enhances personal opportunities by providing personal
mobility and freedom, gives people transportation options to get to work, go to school, visit friends, or go to a doctor's office, provides access to job
opportunities. It saves fuel and reduces congestion, provides economic opportunities and drives community growth and revitalization. Statistically,
every $1 invested in public transportation generates approximately $4 in economic returns, every $10 million in capital investment in public
transportation yields $30 million in increased business sales, every $10 million in operating investment yields $32 million in increased business sales,
and from 2006–2011, residential property values performed 42 percent better on average if they were located near public transportation with
high–frequency service. Public transportation saves money and reduces gasoline consumption. According to APTA's transit saving report, a two–person
household can save, on the average, more than $10,174 a year by downsizing to one car. Public transportation use in the United States saves 4.2 billion

The Beatles Fashion Analysis
The Beatles and Fashion In the 1960's four young men, John, George, Paul and Ringo, emerged on the British music scene as a newly founded group,
the Beatles. When they first became popular in Liverpool, England, little did they know they would make such an impact on Britain's fashion scene.
The Beatles were able to transform Britain's fashion through their clothing style and their look. The most influential year for the Beatles was 1963 due
to their impact on fashion.
Background
The fashion scene of London in the 1960's before the emergence of the Beatles was already vibrant and thriving. Time Magazine dubbed London
"Swinging London" , due to its "hip feeling". The idea of Swinging London emerged after the post war boom, and the 60's were a time of change.
According to David Gilbert, "London [metamorphosed] from a gloomy, grimy post–War capital into a bright, shining epicentre of style." Within
"Swinging London" , there was a youth subculture called the "Mods", which stemmed from modernist, a term used in the 1950s to describe
modern jazz musicians and fans." Being "Mod", meant that they were he "people of the future", and ahead of their times. The mod's represented
one of the everyday youth counter cultures . The emergence of new clothing during the 1960's drastically affected the style and color of the
clothing wore in London, Liverpool and as well as other areas of Britian. Before this fashion revolution, London was a dull area, where everyone
wore the same colors, and there was not much variation in clothing style. According to Marissa Klein, "In the 1940's, England had no use for bright
fashion." There was no need for bright fashion, because England was at war. This revolution got rid of the "Teddy boy" look, which consisted of;
Edwardian–style suits, sideburns and a collarless white t–shirt. The other fashionable style was Beat style, and people that wore the style were called
Beatniks. Beatniks were people that dressed up like poets and wore all black." The Beatles fashion was picked up by a subculture of the "Swinging
London" movement, the Mod's. As Lennon explained, "Changing a lifestyle and the appearance of youth did not just happen. We set out to do it." The

Britain's sovereignty has led to the questioning of the so–called 'European super–state'. Britain voting 'out' on the 23rd. June would result in 'Brexit' and

Organization), these potential failure agreements occupy about 80% of UK's trade around the world. For example, the UK need to try its best to get
access to European single market, need to negotiate with other 60 countries and regions for the EU trade agreement etc.. In addition, if Brexit succeed,
the right of Britain in the EU trade policy will be reduced, for example, the UK is difficult to take part in the negotiations about Transatlantic Trade and

The Museum Of London : An Era Of Fast Paced Social...
Introduction
In an era of fast–paced social transformations, museums as social institutions are faced with more challenges than ever before. New cultural policy,
economic pattern shift, technological innovation and other factors are all putting the pressure on. Management therefore becomes extremely vital to
museums as to all industries, and at the core of it lies the issue of forward planning. Forward planning, of which Stuart Davies has made a definition
(1996,7), is a process that can guide museums through the difficult times, producing better services and greater efficiency. As the product of this
process, a forward plan then should be able to help museums in sticking to their set goals, monitoring the fulfillment of schedule and continuing with
strategic thinking. However, having a written document does not necessarily guarantee museums a secure future. Though there are no rules that must
be complied with in the composition, there are indeed standards relating to the nature of museum management involved and in need of appropriate
address.
This report takes the example of the Museum of London, examining its 2013–2018 forward plan from both strengths and drawbacks with reference to
specific statements. Hopefully, some useful suggestions could be offered through the analysis to guide the museum in updating their plan for the two
years ahead and achieving expected outcomes by the end.

ABSTRACT
Buchi Emecheta is one of the growing numbers of African women writers who have set their authorial eyes on the conditions of women living both
on their home continent and abroad. She takes her place among Tsitsi Dangarembga, Miriama Ba, Bessie Head, Ama Ata Aidoo, Lauretta Ngcobo,
and Lindsey Collen, to name a few, as writers who have formed an intense new voice of African womanhood. Emecheta has published more than
twenty works; including the novels Double Yoke, The Bride Price, Head above Water, Destination Biafra, and Kehinde. Each is an exploration of what
it means to be a woman and a mother in rapidly evolving societies where traditions and mores are in a constant state of flux. While some of her novels
mirror her own experience as an expatriate living in London, her work mostly focuses on her native country of Nigeria. The Joys of Motherhood is
among her most pivotal works, as it offers critical commentary on colonialism, tradition, capitalism, and women's roles as they come to affect one
woman, Nnu Ego, and her family

Street which soon became very popular. She opened the way for a new generation of British fashion.
The third type of popular culture controlled by America was film. The British film industry was in decline. Most films in the cinema were American,
such as 'West Side Story' and 'Psycho'. A new brand of film featuring pop stars interested lots of teenagers. 1960 saw the start of something new in
cinema, the 'Carry On' films. They showed a new British humour which people had never seen in films before. Other films were gritty and realistic,
that showed the working class and set the scene for what was to come.

The Symbolism of Ophelia's Character The name Ophelia has been most commonly associated with William Shakespeare's play, Hamlet, where she
is referred to as the title character's mad lover. She is believed to have killed herself out of madness by drowning herself in a river. Interpretations
about Ophelia's character have ranged from being a woman who lost her sanity upon her father, Polonius' death to being the object of hatred by Hamlet.
However, despite her supporting character in the play, her personality has roused numerous criticisms and interpretations from philosophers and critics.

The costs of such religions refers to the madness and ultimately the death of Ophelia. It can be presumed through Chapman's statement that the
Catholic religion puts more pressure down on Ophelia as she tries to overcome her marriage problems and her sexual desires. Ironically though,
instead of feeling ashamed, Ophelia resorts to the "old lauds" to assure herself of peace and solace. Therefore, it is also safe to conclude that it is
her religion or piety which takes away her fear. This is evident in the fact that she drowns just after she chanted such "old lauds". Erin Campbell
provides a more psychological and sociological approach in the character analysis of Ophelia. She argues that "Ophelia suffers from hysteria, a malady
often ascribed to upper class women who bide their time in their fathers' homes while awaiting fulfillment of their culturally mandated roles as wives
and mothers" (Campbell). Campbell proves her point by comparing Ophelia's character to that of Quentin Compson who also drowned herself as a
result of unrequited love, patriarchal restrictions and losses. Truthfully, it is the social environment of Ophelia which caused her madness. Feeling
imprisoned and manipulated by the people around her, she felt that

A New York Police Department
Picture a woman standing in a subway station in New York City. Her purse is slung over her shoulder as she reads the railway map. A thief
approaches her from behind and snatches the leather handle of her purse from her grip. He dashes away as she helplessly watches him go. The woman
does not call the police or even ask passersby for help. She knows no one will come to her aid, especially not the NYPD. Such a scenario is
shocking and not a little discomforting, especially when placed in the jurisdiction of the nationally acclaimed New York Police Department.
Unfortunately, such scenes of distress began to proliferate in late December of 2014 as the NYPD dramatically reduced the number of arrests made
for petty crimes, such as purse theft. The police used the cutback as a response to a multitude of policy blunders from the office of Mayor de Blasio,
many of which the NYPD considered offensive and inappropriate. Although the mayor's actions doubtless deserve more scrutiny, the police ofNew
York City were devastatingly blind to the ethical implications of their rash decisions. By indulging in an egocentric worldview and morally

not realize the safety issues that come with dating, or even the emotional issues. Freshman college women should not participate in casual hookups or
sudden dating because one can get too attached, get used in bad way, or could get abducted and kidnapped.
Casual dating or more so called the "hookup culture" can be very dangerous with newly freshman coming into college because they can get
attached to the wrong men. Many women change themselves without noticing when they go off to college. Not having the parent around makes
one go crazy without realizing. For example, partying and alcohol become a big role in the lives of these young girls. "Many college students are
at an experimental phase of life where they are on their own for the first time and able to do many things they weren 't able to do before. Because of
this, hookup culture appeals to many students, said Rachel Terman, Class of 2014, who studied rural sociology and women 's studies." (Warrington

The Victorian Era Of British History Essay
The Victorian Era of British history was the time of Queen Victoria 's rule from 20 June 1837 until her passing, on 22 January 1901. It was a long
stretch of peace, prosperous period regarding sensibilities and political concerns to the section of the Reform Act 1832. The time was gone before by
the Georgian period and took after by the Edwardian period. The laterhalf of the Victorian age generally concurred with the first divide of the Belle
period of mainland Europe and the Gilded Age of the United States. Among the numerous improvements that made Victoria 's rule appear to be
extraordinarily not quite the same as prior periods in British history, two are particularly meriting consideration. The primary is the French Revolution
(1789–1815), and the second is the Industrial Revolution that started around 1780 and quickened all through the Victorian Age. Victorians survived
earth shattering times – they expected to confront the world after a long and extreme fight with Revolutionary and Napoleonic France, which had
toppled an out of date medieval respectability for the purpose of law based convictions, just to passage "opportunity, parity, and society" by military
violence. In England there was much early vitality from essayists and taught individuals for the Revolution 's claim that human foundations were
improvable, not for all time regular or god–designated. The progressives toppled an undemocratic and ruffian structure and planned to put set up more

Should Public Money Be Paid For No Public Subsidy?
Arts organisations receiving grants and funding in today 's society is becoming increasingly sparse, as public money is being cut left, right and centre.
So why is it still ok that large, seemingly upper class, arts institutions are receiving millions of pounds of funding each year, to put on productions only
enjoyed by a tiny minority of the population, while arguably more important organisations are falling further and further into debt? In this essay, I will
be discussing the reasons why it is morally wrong for opera to receive large public subsidy.
One main reason why public money being used to pay for opera is morally wrong is because the figures aren 't just large, they 're astronomical in some
cases. Take for example, the English National Opera (ENO). The ENO began back in 1931, and is one of the principal opera companies in London, and
is based in the Coliseum.Being one of the principal opera companies in the country, the ENO gets a large proportion of it 's income through grants
from the Arts Council in England. For the year 2012/2013, the ENO received a sum of ВЈ17,078,000 from the Arts Council.This is a huge amount of
money. On the ENO website, they state that as well as the Arts Council grant, they have some self–generated income that they generate through their
ticket sales and donations. They say that "for every pound of subsidy, ENO raises an equivalent amount through these sources: grants (47.5%), ticket
sales (25%), fundraising (15%) and exploitation

sure that all women would get half the money they saved from housekeeping, in 1967, the matrimonial acts gave husband and wife exactly the
same right of occupation in a family home. Best most of all in 1970, when family assets were divided up the women's upkeep of household and
welfare of family was taken into acount.women were now treated with more equality, and this had been a great change for women who lived in the
1950s. Before, in the 1950s women did not have many job opportunities most of them worked in boutiques or as receptionists all of this was because
of the traditional views that women stay at home and sacrifice their career for the home and children, this is because they did not have equal
education. So in the sixties law was formed to make sure girls and boys had same education.

about the city of London. Wordsworth sees the beauty in London whilst Blake only sees the ugliness. It is through these different perspectives of
London that both poets present their ideas of nature, darkness and suffering.
In 'London', Blake portrays a gloomy perspective of London, whereas in 'Composed upon Westminster Bridge' Wordsworth's tone is bright and
buoyant leading the readers to paint an optimistic picture of London. Blake chooses to describe London's "midnight streets" in order to reinforce the

The fact that "Marriage–hearse" is in a neat rhyming structure makes the words drum into the readers head more making it easier to remember and to

Both Blake and Wordsworth use similar literary devices of first person, tone and imagery to describe their thoughts about London, however these
techniques have a different effect in each poem. Blake uses dark imagery to suggest poverty, bloodshed, disease and death in order to convince the
reader of the melancholy and morbidity of the city whilst Wordsworth uses imagery to portray a charming and entrancing London, full of splendour,
tranquillity and serenity. Wordsworth also uses imagery to provide the reader with the idea that London is a quiet and peaceful city. Wordsworth
uses simile to describe the city's beauty, this is evident in the line "This city now doth, like a garment, wear the beauty of the morning; silent, bare".
His use of simile in this line suggests that the city is clothed in beauty however it is a beauty that is removed when people wake as suggested by the
use of the word "garment". Blake also uses first person in 'London' to increase the immediacy of his tone and to narrate the things he observes as he
walks through the streets of London. In the first stanza, it opens near the River Thames where he observes that everything he sees is "chartered". the

One of the main recent political factors that will have a big impact on the UK supermarket industry is the possibility of UK leaving the European
Union that might becomes a definitive decision after the June 2016 election. This decision might change the entire UK supermarket industry
operations because of the big number of goods that have been imported from the European Union with a free tax because of the European Union free

were existed. Women could not vote, could not own a property and they could not hold professional jobs apart from teachers or a domestic servant,
factory workers or agricultural labors. At that time society did not consider that women need a proper education and consequently it was only for
men. As a result, it was rare to find women in skilled jobs that required higher or intermediate education. Women then were generally expected to be
housekeepers or housewives .The role of women did not go beyond a wife or mother who took care of her children and maintained her house of her

Analysis Of The Poem ' Dover Beach ' By Matthew Arnold

An Analysis of "Dover Beach" by Matthew Arnold
Dover Beach is thought to be one of the best representations of the Victorian Period all together. It portrays the mood and tone of what the people
experienced and felt at that time. Around the same time it was written, London had just experienced a massive boom in their population, growing from
2 to 6 million citizens. At the same time, London was becoming one of the first in the country to move towards industrialization, causing some to lose
their jobs due to machinery performing them better and faster. People began to feel useless with technology taking over so quickly. Many suffered
from the expansion during the early part, losing all hope of finding happiness and giving this moment in time a new name; "A Time of Troubles".
Many other authors, like Matthew Arnold, began writing their personal accounts of what they experienced or saw others experiencing, giving the
feeling of melancholy. The reason why Dover Beach represents the Victorian period is because in the way Arnold wrote it, he didn't ground himself
or stick to one specific subject. He creates a mood by using a variety of images, metaphors, similes, and adjectives. The narrator seems lonely, not
mentioning any other person around him. One of the other major problems being experienced during this time are also represented in this poem. That
problem is the loss of faith. Because of the new developments,

A relationship like this may or may not include full disclosure. In some cases, the faithful partner accepts that there will be outside relationships but
doesn't want to discuss it at all.
Swinging
One of the more controversial types of open relationships is the swinger lifestyle. In an open relationship that includes couples dating others, there is
often a focus on "togetherness" in the affairs.
In some cases, the couple dates other couples; however, there are many cases where the couple adds a single third party to the relationship. The
primary relationship comes first, but both partners are open to fully disclosed outside relationships. When this is strictly sexual, a third (or fourth or
fifth or whatever) person may simply be included on occasion.
Swinging exists in a variety of other forms as well. In some cases, there may be a multitude of people committed to openly sharing each other while

'other public benefits might in some cases be derived simultaneously with that principal object',(1) in particular the partial clearance of the 'Rookery'
of St. Giles' by means of an extension of Oxford Street to Hart Street. They based these conclusions on a mass of evidence they had taken on the
desirability of improved both public health and morals, and they had been regaled by the first hand accounts of the brutish horrors of slum life in
various parts of central London. It was hardly surprising, therefore, that they insisted that the most important improvements . . . are in direct
proportion to the degree in which they embrace all the great purposes of amendment in respect of health and morals . . . by the removal of
congregations of vice and misery, and the introduction of a better police.(2) (Dyos 86)
As a result of overcrowding, the sanitation issue had to be contended with first and foremost. The expansion and improvement of the streets, and the
expansion of the rail system (including the Underground) would in turn lead to implementation of the sewer system (which in London emptied into the

Should the Thames Tideway Tunnel Go Ahead?
Executive Summary
Joseph Bazalgette built London's current sewage system in the 1960's and, at the time of construction, they stopped the spread of Cholera which was
rapidly spreading amongst Londoners at the time. The system also brought an end to the Great Stink of London. (BBC History, 2016)
Introduction to the Thames Tideway Tunnel
The construction of the Thames Tideway Tunnel is an eight–year project starting in 2016 with the projected completion date in 2023. The tunnel is
being constructed in order to address the issue of London's overflowing sewer system. The current 20,000 miles of networked sewage pipes were built
in the 1860's by Joseph Bazalgette and they are failing to meet 21st century demands with London's growing population and increasing levels of
rainwater ending up in the sewers. The sewers were designed so that rare overflows would be flushed into the river, however, at the time of
construction this only happened on average once a year and now it happens on a weekly basis resulting in 39 million tonnes of raw sewage ending up
in the River Thames every year. (BBC News, 2014) (Super Sewer: An Introduction to the Thames Tideway Tunnel Project in London, 2016) According
to Phil Stride from Thames Water, "It is absolutely not consistent for a world–leading city to be using its river as an open sewer", and it is because of
this that the Thames Tideway Tunnel became the proposed solution to London's sewage problems.

London By George Eliot And Monet 's The House Of...
London, England's capital, is one of the top twenty–five largest cities in the world, located on the River Thames with a history reaching all the way
back to Roman times. From the London Eye and Big Ben to the Albert and Victoria Memorial and Buckingham Palace, there is an abundance of
adventures to journey on in the prodigious city of London. Despite all the fascinating monuments and architecture there is to see, London has the
reputation of constantly being gloomy and raining. With this reputation, there is plenty of artwork that resembles the image of "gloomy, large
London." Three pieces of artwork that resemble the gloomy and large qualities of London are "In a London Drawing Room" by George Eliot, "A
London Thoroughfare. 2 AM" by Amy Lowell, and Monet's The House of Parliament, sunset (1903).
Eliot's painting of London represents the vast city as isolated and extremely gloomy, where "no bird can make a shadow as it flies" as a result of
the immense amount of fog floating in the air. Here, London is depicted as a lonely and isolated city when Eliot says, "All hurry on & look upon the
ground, / Or glance unmarking at the passers by / The wheels are hurrying too, cabs, carriages / All closed, in multiplied identity." With the millions of
people breathing in London, it is still an empty city where people do not recognize one another and do not form the effort to conceive new
relationships. In this sentence, it construes what giant cities are like; filled with independent

Essay On The Effects Of Plagues

  • 1. Essay on The Effects of Plagues The Effects of Plagues The effects of the plagues differed from one region to another according to the forms of agriculture practised and local economic conditions. So we should be very careful about making broad generalisations. As one might expect the kill rate was lower in the countryside than it was in the towns, but it was still significant. In a selection of Essex manors hit in 1349 the range was between 25% at Market Roding rising to 54% at High Easter. Medieval Essex was highly manorialised and close to the main trade routes out of London and along the Essex coast and therefore more vulnerable. Overall rural mortality is thought to have been around 30% for those parts of Europe affected ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In the following autumn no one could get a reaper for less than 8d with food, a mower for less than 12d with food. For this reason many crops perished in the fields for lack of harvesters. But in the year of the plague, as is explained above, there was so great and abundance of all kinds of corn that they were scarcely regarded. " Knighton also records a dramatic fall in the price . " A great cheapness of all things for fear of death, for few took any account of riches or of possessions of any kind." It was a sad irony that the harvest of 1348 was a good one, but in many places there was either no one to reap it, or those who had survived were so shocked that they were unable to organise themselves for the harvest. Many decided that it was only a matter of time before they too would die from the plague and so decided to enjoy themselves whilst they could. What happened in the Siena of Agnolo di Tura was probably true of most of Europe: "each person lived according to his own caprice, and everyone tended to seek pleasure in eating and drinking, hunting, catching birds, and gaming" The most obvious consequence of the economic crisis was that the population explosion of the thirteenth century was reversed.

  • 2. Understanding Inequalities Of London 's Life Expectancy... 'Understanding inequalities in London's life expectancy and healthy life expectancy' is a document that summarises data, that has been collected over various years, by the Public Health Outcomes Framework (PHOF) in regards to life expectancy and inequalities (London Knowledge and Intelligence Team. 2014). The data within this document could be considered as a valid and reliable outlook into London's life expectancy because it is a published document by Public Health England which is a health organisation. The publisher is reputable and therefore it is deemed as being trustworthy (Public Health England. 2013). Furthermore the information has been collected and analysed by professionals. Validity of the document is reinforced as the data given does reflect life expectancy within a given borough (Office For National Statistics. Unknown). The information and statistics they have gathered are more than likely correct however there are various factors that could have influenced the results. Average income within an area has been gathered by tax authority records and is shown within the 'Slope Index', although people may be guilty of tax avoidance or the answers they give may be false due to mistakes which could cause the results to be considerably different to the reality (TaxAid. 2015). A census may also be responsible for the data gathered, however a census is only conducted every ten years so the results may change dramatically within that time span (Office For National ...

  • 3. Essay on London's Economy King (1990, page x) argues that the dissolution of empire has been critical to the growth of world cities. How far does this apply to London? Modern patterns of development and growth have been shaped and influenced by the historical context of colonialism. Within this context relationships between capitalist and pre–capitalist states or colonies helped forge a world economy, which would later lead to processes of globalisation and the current economic world order. Expansion in the world economy has been exacerbated by the freer flow of labour, goods, services and capital, which are features of the post–war, post–colonial world. King contends that these factors have been "critical to the growth of world cities." (King, 1990: ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... H.G Wells described his impression of imperialLondon: "It's a great place. Immense. The richest town in the world, the biggest port, the greatest manufacturing town, the imperial city – the centre of civilisation, the heart of the world." (Wells H.G, 1908:73) In this essay I will be discussing the significance of King's argument with reference to the city of London. Imperial London will be introduced followed by a discussion of London's decline and its patterns of modern growth in order to ascertain how far King's argument applies to the City. Different types of growth are included, but emphasis is largely placed on the geographical and economic dimensions of London's change and development. London's imperial role was crucial to the expansion of its fortunes. Growth was inextricably linked with the colonial empire and took place in several key areas during the colonial interlude. London's Docklands represented a melting pot of colonial trade and commerce and were a critical facet of London's (and Great Britain's) economy that fed aspects of growth into the city centre and enabled it to thrive. In 1700 London handled 80% of the country's imports and 69% of its exports. Trade with colonies in the Caribbean, Southeast Asia and the Indian Sub–Continent brought in tea, china, rice, tobacco and spices to the City and in 1799 the West India Company began to build docks on the Isle of Dogs

  • 6. The Beatles Fashion Analysis The Beatles and Fashion In the 1960's four young men, John, George, Paul and Ringo, emerged on the British music scene as a newly founded group, the Beatles. When they first became popular in Liverpool, England, little did they know they would make such an impact on Britain's fashion scene. The Beatles were able to transform Britain's fashion through their clothing style and their look. The most influential year for the Beatles was 1963 due to their impact on fashion. Background The fashion scene of London in the 1960's before the emergence of the Beatles was already vibrant and thriving. Time Magazine dubbed London "Swinging London" , due to its "hip feeling". The idea of Swinging London emerged after the post war boom, and the 60's were a time of change. According to David Gilbert, "London [metamorphosed] from a gloomy, grimy post–War capital into a bright, shining epicentre of style." Within "Swinging London" , there was a youth subculture called the "Mods", which stemmed from modernist, a term used in the 1950s to describe modern jazz musicians and fans." Being "Mod", meant that they were he "people of the future", and ahead of their times. The mod's represented one of the everyday youth counter cultures . The emergence of new clothing during the 1960's drastically affected the style and color of the clothing wore in London, Liverpool and as well as other areas of Britian. Before this fashion revolution, London was a dull area, where everyone wore the same colors, and there was not much variation in clothing style. According to Marissa Klein, "In the 1940's, England had no use for bright fashion." There was no need for bright fashion, because England was at war. This revolution got rid of the "Teddy boy" look, which consisted of; Edwardian–style suits, sideburns and a collarless white t–shirt. The other fashionable style was Beat style, and people that wore the style were called Beatniks. Beatniks were people that dressed up like poets and wore all black." The Beatles fashion was picked up by a subculture of the "Swinging London" movement, the Mod's. As Lennon explained, "Changing a lifestyle and the appearance of youth did not just happen. We set out to do it." The beatles did not intentionaly ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The World 's Economy And Lowering Its Credit Rating Winston Churchill called for the concept of a "kind of United States of Europe", and with an ever–closer European Union both with tenacious economic and political ties, his call is materialising by the day. Though favoured by Churchill, the high European migrant levels and the erosion of Britain's sovereignty has led to the questioning of the so–called 'European super–state'. Britain voting 'out' on the 23rd. June would result in 'Brexit' and subsequently an end to free trade with its European counterparts.

He discusses how in the event of 'Brexit', Britain would be at "the back of the queue" in securing a NAFTA type deal. A benefit of Brexit discussed by EU–out supporters is the ability of Britain to forge trade deals with other non–EU nations such as the US. However this prospect of a Britain–America trade deal has been dampened by Obama's comments, suggesting that America is busy negotiating deals with EU and that Britain will have to wait possibly another ten years. Obama further comments on how EU "magnifies" Britain's global influence and that Brexit would hamper this. Penny Mordaunt from 'The Telegraph' has dismissed his comments as "woeful ignorance" saying his belief ...that .. divisions in Europe would "weaken NATO" is not true arguing those divisions are caused by the EU itself. Mordaunt continues to argue how "Obama confuses collective action through NATO" with the "integration at all costs ideology that motivates the EU too" explaining that the EU has nothing to do with Britain's international influence, NATO does. Obama's argument is weak whilst discussing trade deals as he has reached his final year of his presidency and cannot dictate on future deals especially with republican candidates Cruz stating an American–British deal would occur immediately not "back of the queue" as Obama has suggested.

Introduction In an era of fast–paced social transformations, museums as social institutions are faced with more challenges than ever before. New cultural policy, economic pattern shift, technological innovation and other factors are all putting the pressure on. Management therefore becomes extremely vital to museums as to all industries, and at the core of it lies the issue of forward planning. Forward planning, of which Stuart Davies has made a definition (1996,7), is a process that can guide museums through the difficult times, producing better services and greater efficiency. As the product of this process, a forward plan then should be able to help museums in sticking to their set goals, monitoring the fulfillment of schedule and continuing with strategic thinking. However, having a written document does not necessarily guarantee museums a secure future. Though there are no rules that must be complied with in the composition, there are indeed standards relating to the nature of museum management involved and in need of appropriate address. This report takes the example of the Museum of London, examining its 2013–2018 forward plan from both strengths and drawbacks with reference to specific statements. Hopefully, some useful suggestions could be offered through the analysis to guide the museum in updating their plan for the two years ahead and achieving expected outcomes by the end.

She is believed to have killed herself out of madness by drowning herself in a river. Interpretations about Ophelia's character have ranged from being a woman who lost her sanity upon her father, Polonius' death to being the object of hatred by Hamlet.

The costs of such religions refers to the madness and ultimately the death of Ophelia. It can be presumed through Chapman's statement that the Catholic religion puts more pressure down on Ophelia as she tries to overcome her marriage problems and her sexual desires. Ironically though, instead of feeling ashamed, Ophelia resorts to the "old lauds" to assure herself of peace and solace. Therefore, it is also safe to conclude that it is her religion or piety which takes away her fear. This is evident in the fact that she drowns just after she chanted such "old lauds". Erin Campbell provides a more psychological and sociological approach in the character analysis of Ophelia. She argues that "Ophelia suffers from hysteria, a malady often ascribed to upper class women who bide their time in their fathers' homes while awaiting fulfillment of their culturally mandated roles as wives and mothers" (Campbell). Campbell proves her point by comparing Ophelia's character to that of Quentin Compson who also drowned herself as a result of unrequited love, patriarchal restrictions and losses. Truthfully, it is the social environment of Ophelia which caused her madness. Feeling imprisoned and manipulated by the people around her, she felt that ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

A thief approaches her from behind and snatches the leather handle of her purse from her grip. He dashes away as she helplessly watches him go. The woman does not call the police or even ask passersby for help. She knows no one will come to her aid, especially not the NYPD. Such a scenario is shocking and not a little discomforting, especially when placed in the jurisdiction of the nationally acclaimed New York Police Department. Unfortunately, such scenes of distress began to proliferate in late December of 2014 as the NYPD dramatically reduced the number of arrests made for petty crimes, such as purse theft. The police used the cutback as a response to a multitude of policy blunders from the office of Mayor de Blasio, many of which the NYPD considered offensive and inappropriate. Although the mayor's actions doubtless deserve more scrutiny, the police ofNew York City were devastatingly blind to the ethical implications of their rash decisions. By indulging in an egocentric worldview and morally disengaging from their decisions, the NYPD gave reign to emotion and released their wrath by endangering the population of their city.

  • 23. The Victorian Era Of British History Essay The Victorian Era of British history was the time of Queen Victoria 's rule from 20 June 1837 until her passing, on 22 January 1901. It was a long stretch of peace, prosperous period regarding sensibilities and political concerns to the section of the Reform Act 1832. The time was gone before by the Georgian period and took after by the Edwardian period. The laterhalf of the Victorian age generally concurred with the first divide of the Belle period of mainland Europe and the Gilded Age of the United States. Among the numerous improvements that made Victoria 's rule appear to be extraordinarily not quite the same as prior periods in British history, two are particularly meriting consideration. The primary is the French Revolution (1789–1815), and the second is the Industrial Revolution that started around 1780 and quickened all through the Victorian Age. Victorians survived earth shattering times – they expected to confront the world after a long and extreme fight with Revolutionary and Napoleonic France, which had toppled an out of date medieval respectability for the purpose of law based convictions, just to passage "opportunity, parity, and society" by military violence. In England there was much early vitality from essayists and taught individuals for the Revolution 's claim that human foundations were improvable, not for all time regular or god–designated.

  • 24. Should Public Money Be Paid For No Public Subsidy? Arts organisations receiving grants and funding in today 's society is becoming increasingly sparse, as public money is being cut left, right and centre. So why is it still ok that large, seemingly upper class, arts institutions are receiving millions of pounds of funding each year, to put on productions only enjoyed by a tiny minority of the population, while arguably more important organisations are falling further and further into debt? In this essay, I will be discussing the reasons why it is morally wrong for opera to receive large public subsidy. One main reason why public money being used to pay for opera is morally wrong is because the figures aren 't just large, they 're astronomical in some cases. Take for example, the English National Opera (ENO). The ENO began back in 1931, and is one of the principal opera companies in London, and is based in the Coliseum.Being one of the principal opera companies in the country, the ENO gets a large proportion of it 's income through grants from the Arts Council in England. For the year 2012/2013, the ENO received a sum of ВЈ17,078,000 from the Arts Council.This is a huge amount of money. On the ENO website, they state that as well as the Arts Council grant, they have some self–generated income that they generate through their ticket sales and donations. They say that "for every pound of subsidy, ENO raises an equivalent amount through these sources: grants (47.5%), ticket sales (25%), fundraising (15%) and exploitation ...

Wordsworth also uses imagery to provide the reader with the idea that London is a quiet and peaceful city. Wordsworth uses simile to describe the city's beauty, this is evident in the line "This city now doth, like a garment, wear the beauty of the morning; silent, bare". His use of simile in this line suggests that the city is clothed in beauty however it is a beauty that is removed when people wake as suggested by the use of the word "garment".

Many suffered from the expansion during the early part, losing all hope of finding happiness and giving this moment in time a new name; "A Time of Troubles". Many other authors, like Matthew Arnold, began writing their personal accounts of what they experienced or saw others experiencing, giving the feeling of melancholy.

In an open relationship that includes couples dating others, there is often a focus on "togetherness" in the affairs. In some cases, the couple dates other couples; however, there are many cases where the couple adds a single third party to the relationship.

They based these conclusions on a mass of evidence they had taken on the desirability of improved both public health and morals, and they had been regaled by the first hand accounts of the brutish horrors of slum life in various parts of central London. It was hardly surprising, therefore, that they insisted that the most important improvements . . . are in direct proportion to the degree in which they embrace all the great purposes of amendment in respect of health and morals . . . by the removal of congregations of vice and misery, and the introduction of a better police.(2) (Dyos 86) As a result of overcrowding, the sanitation issue had to be contended with first and foremost. The expansion and improvement of the streets, and the expansion of the rail system (including the Underground) would in turn lead to implementation of the sewer system (which in London emptied into the Thames.)

Defining Slang Before we embark on a detailed study concerning Cockney Rhyming Slang (henceforth CRS), we shall endeavor to define the relevant superordinate term, namely slang. Innocuous as it may seem at first sight, the term was initially perceived as a corruption of language, as evidenced by the preliminary data provided by OED, according to which [slang is] the special vocabulary used by any set of persons of a low or disreputable character; language of a low and vulgar type. The following meaning, which apparently originated in the 18th century among organized criminals (Ayto 2005), was soon extended to still fairly unfavorable sense of a language of a highly colloquial type, considered as below the level of standard educated speech [...]. Nonetheless, after the mid–eighteenth century, the concept in question has gradually started to shed the pejorative patina (Mattiello 2008); therefore, currently many – or perhaps most – lexicographic works provide rather neutrally hued definitions of slang.

  • 40. Case Of Failure Of The Data Nodes case of failure of the data nodes, the name node knows which data node has failed since that particular data node will not report back in time to the name node. The name node also knows where the data that is supplied to the data node has gone redundantly to the other data node. Therefore the job still goes to completion even though a couple of data nodes fail in the big data processing. Since the Hadoop MapReduce framework is master–slave architecture there is a chance of single point failure. The single point failure occurs when the name node itself fails. In that case there is also a presence of secondary name node that place in the event of single point failure. Figure 1 MapReduce Working IV.METHODOLOGY/ALGORITHM .

  • 41. Should The Thames Tideway Tunnel Go Ahead? Should the Thames Tideway Tunnel Go Ahead? Executive Summary Joseph Bazalgette built London's current sewage system in the 1960's and, at the time of construction, they stopped the spread of Cholera which was rapidly spreading amongst Londoners at the time. The system also brought an end to the Great Stink of London. (BBC History, 2016) Introduction to the Thames Tideway Tunnel The construction of the Thames Tideway Tunnel is an eight–year project starting in 2016 with the projected completion date in 2023. The tunnel is being constructed in order to address the issue of London's overflowing sewer system. The current 20,000 miles of networked sewage pipes were built in the 1860's by Joseph Bazalgette and they are failing to meet 21st century demands with London's growing population and increasing levels of rainwater ending up in the sewers. The sewers were designed so that rare overflows would be flushed into the river, however, at the time of construction this only happened on average once a year and now it happens on a weekly basis resulting in 39 million tonnes of raw sewage ending up in the River Thames every year. (BBC News, 2014) (Super Sewer: An Introduction to the Thames Tideway Tunnel Project in London, 2016) According to Phil Stride from Thames Water, "It is absolutely not consistent for a world–leading city to be using its river as an open sewer", and it is because of this that the Thames Tideway Tunnel became the proposed solution to London's sewage problems. ...

London, England's capital, is one of the top twenty–five largest cities in the world, located on the River Thames with a history reaching all the way back to Roman times. From the London Eye and Big Ben to the Albert and Victoria Memorial and Buckingham Palace, there is an abundance of adventures to journey on in the prodigious city of London. Despite all the fascinating monuments and architecture there is to see, London has the reputation of constantly being gloomy and raining. With this reputation, there is plenty of artwork that resembles the image of "gloomy, large London." Three pieces of artwork that resemble the gloomy and large qualities of London are "In a London Drawing Room" by George Eliot, "A London Thoroughfare. 2 AM" by Amy Lowell, and Monet's The House of Parliament, sunset (1903). Eliot's painting of London represents the vast city as isolated and extremely gloomy, where "no bird can make a shadow as it flies" as a result of the immense amount of fog floating in the air. Here, London is depicted as a lonely and isolated city when Eliot says, "All hurry on & look upon the ground, / Or glance unmarking at the passers by / The wheels are hurrying too, cabs, carriages / All closed, in multiplied identity."
