Final mood board!
The photographs in the document vary in their composition, with some taken from far away using telephoto lenses and others as portraits. Many of the photos show depth of field within landscapes or document people, cultures, or food chains. The photos serve as examples that record locations and tell stories on their own, focusing on discovery, which is the theme of the project.
Going Manual
This document provides information on switching from automatic to manual modes on a camera. It describes the characteristics and uses of different exposure modes including Program, Shutter Priority, Aperture Priority, and Manual. It also covers different scene modes like Portrait, Landscape, Macro, Sports, and Night Portrait. The exposure triangle of aperture, shutter speed, and ISO is explained. Concepts of over and underexposure, depth of field, freezing versus blurring motion, and the relationship between ISO and image quality are discussed. Activities are suggested to understand these photographic concepts hands-on.
Raw vs Jpeg
RAW files contain unprocessed image data directly from the camera sensor, while JPEG files are compressed and processed images ready for sharing. RAW files provide more flexibility and control during post-processing by allowing adjustments to settings like white balance but take up more storage space than JPEG files. For casual photography or when storage space is limited, JPEG format may be preferable, while RAW is better when more editing flexibility or control over the final image is desired.
Photographic Genres

The Role of Women
This document discusses changes in China under Mao Zedong between 1949-1957, including changes to the role of women. It explains that prior to 1949, women faced legal discrimination, child marriage, polygamy, and becoming property of their husbands. The 1950 Marriage Law gave women legal equality, banning arranged marriage, polygamy, child brides, and the sale of women. It transformed women's lives but also expected them to take on equal physical labor as men as well as maintain domestic roles. Women were encouraged to work in education, healthcare, and industry, reducing unemployment, but often had little choice in their assigned jobs. Other changes included an eight hour work day, paid holidays, and universal education and healthcare.

Legal System Challenge
The legal challenges to segregation in education, notably Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, had significant impact but also faced resistance. The Supreme Court ruling declared segregation unconstitutional and increased federal support for integration. However, it did not mandate immediate change and many schools, especially in the South, ignored or resisted it. This sparked further legal battles and demonstrations over civil rights but also strengthened opposition to desegregation.

2) The SS (Blackshirts) were also Hitler's personal bodyguards and controlled intelligence, security, police forces, and extermination; they ran the concentration camps and sought to create fear under leader Heinrich Himmler.
3) The German Army swore loyalty to Hitler and ignored the Treaty of Versailles, becoming one of the largest armies with over 12.5 million soldiers under Hitler as Supreme Commander.
The Development of the Red Scare
The document discusses the causes and growth of the Red Scare in the United States after World War 2. Key events that contributed to rising anti-communist fear and paranoia included the spread of communism in Europe, the Soviet development of nuclear weapons, China falling to communism, and the start of the Korean War. Within the US, investigations by the House Un-American Activities Committee and Federal Bureau of Investigation targeted suspected communists, especially in Hollywood and the federal government. This led to blacklists and prosecutions like the Hollywood Ten and Alger Hiss case, fueling further anti-communist hysteria and laws restricting civil liberties.
Reasons for the Red Scare
Captain America was originally produced in the 1940s to promote American patriotism during World War 2. He was fighting against the Nazis. Captain America was reintroduced in 1953 during the Red Scare and Cold War, suggesting he was now fighting against communism and the Soviet Union.

The Death of Lenin
In his final years from 1922 to 1924, Lenin was concerned with the future leadership and direction of communism in Russia. He grew disillusioned with some members of the Communist party and believed Stalin and others were not fit to lead. In 1922, Lenin dictated his "Political Will" document outlining criticisms of key party members and recommending others to succeed him, but it was not published openly. He died in January 1924 after suffering multiple strokes.
New Economic Policy
The document discusses the New Economic Policy (NEP) introduced by Lenin in 1921 in response to economic crisis and opposition in Russia. It provides background on War Communism, the Kronstadt rebellion, and reasons for the NEP. The NEP allowed private enterprise, markets, and a tax on peasant production. It aimed to restore the economy but faced criticism from communists and ideological concerns over private property and capitalism. Overall the sources discuss debates around the success and failure of the NEP in achieving economic recovery while maintaining communist principles.
War Communism Revolts
The document discusses two major revolts against the Bolsheviks in 1921 - the Tambov Rebellion and the Kronstadt Revolt. The Tambov Rebellion was a widespread peasant uprising in response to millions of deaths from starvation under War Communism. The Kronstadt Revolt involved sailors and soldiers rebelling against compulsory labor and the replacement of soviet influence with the Vesenkha ministry. The Politburo anticipated the rebels would be unhappy about political oppression, economic misery, and witnessing the dire situation in cities like Petrograd. After defeating an initial attack, Trotsky mobilized over 60,000 troops equipped with artillery to put down the Kronstadt Revolt over almost three weeks of fighting, executing around
War Communism
War Communism was introduced by the Bolshevik government during the Russian Civil War to help fight against opposing forces and take control of industry and food production. It involved the nationalization of factories, mines, and railways as well as forced grain requisitioning from peasants using violence and arrest. However, it failed as peasants hid grain and food shortages led to a severe famine in 1921 that killed millions. War communism damaged the economy and led to unrest, forcing the Bolsheviks to transition to the New Economic Policy.
Civil War in Russia - Why the Red Won
Here is a paragraph analyzing Trotsky's role in the Russian Civil War:
Trotsky played an extremely important role in the Bolshevik victory in the Civil War, as evidenced by the sources in the document "Trotsky and the Civil War." As People's Commissar for Military and Naval Affairs, Trotsky was responsible for organizing and leading the Red Army. He introduced conscription, established a communist political department within the army to ensure soldiers' loyalty, and divided the army into mobile units that could be rapidly deployed to counter White threats. Trotsky also showed great skill as a military strategist, directing the Red Army to defeat the larger and better equipped forces of Denikin, Kolchak, and Yudenich. Through his leadership and
Civil War in Russia
The document discusses the Russian Civil War that took place after the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia from 1917-1922. It provides background information on key terms, events, and figures involved in the civil war. It then examines the impact of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk signed in 1918, which required Russia to cede significant territory and resources to the German Empire, contributing to economic and political instability in Russia and opposition to the Bolshevik government. This further exacerbated other ongoing issues including foreign intervention, opposition to Bolshevik rule, and food shortages, leading to escalating conflict between the Bolshevik Red Army and opposing White forces.
The Bolshevik Consolidation of Power
The document summarizes key decisions made by Lenin and the Bolsheviks to consolidate power in Russia after the October Revolution in 1917. These included forming an exclusively Bolshevik government called Sovnarkom instead of ruling through the Soviet congress; banning opposition press and political parties like the Kadets; refusing to include other socialist parties in government despite pressure; implementing the decree on land to redistribute estates to peasants; granting workers control of factories; recognizing rights of national minorities; and accepting the punitive Treaty of Brest-Litovsk to exit World War I. These moves helped the Bolsheviks establish sole control over the government but also sparked opposition and protests.
The Provisional Government
The Provisional Government that ruled Russia after the February Revolution faced several weaknesses and mistakes that undermined its authority. It lacked a strong power base since it had simply assumed leadership without a popular mandate. It was also unable to resolve important issues like land reform in a timely manner. Additionally, the Provisional Government struggled to end Russian participation in World War I as desired by the Petrograd Soviet, which exercised power through the Bolshevik-controlled Red Guards. Several crises, like the June offensive and Kornilov Affair, further weakened the Provisional Government and strengthened the Bolsheviks.
The Provisional Government
The Provisional Government that ruled Russia after the February Revolution faced several weaknesses and mistakes that undermined its authority. It lacked a strong power base since it had simply assumed leadership without a popular mandate. It was also unable to resolve important issues like land reform in a timely manner. Additionally, the Provisional Government struggled to end Russia's involvement in World War I as it relied on allies for loans. Meanwhile, the Petrograd Soviet exercised power through its workers' councils despite having no constitutional authority. These issues, along with military defeats, allowed the Bolsheviks to gain popularity by demanding peace and Soviet rule.
The February Revolution
The February Revolution of 1917 in Russia was caused by widespread dissatisfaction with World War I and Tsar Nicholas II's autocratic rule. Major factors included heavy losses and poor conditions for Russian soldiers, food and fuel shortages exacerbated by harsh winter weather, and growing strikes and protests. On International Women's Day, demonstrations in Petrograd swelled to over 90,000 protesters demanding bread and an end to the war. The Tsar ordered military suppression but the soldiers mutinied, depriving the Tsar of power. Nicholas abdicated on March 2, ending over 300 years of Romanov rule and beginning Russia's transition to a provisional democratic government.
Influence of Rasputin
Rasputin gained influence over Tsarina Alexandra and contributed to political instability through his control over her decisions and appointments of ministers. As an uneducated peasant with questionable personal behavior, Rasputin's prominence in royal circles undermined faith in the Tsar's leadership. His assassination in late 1916 further damaged the reputation of the Romanov dynasty and fueled the growing revolutionary sentiment that would erupt in early 1917.
The Impacts of WW1
World War 1 had devastating impacts on Russia's social, political, and economic structure:
1) Military defeats weakened the Tsar's authority and led to massive casualties totaling over 1.7 million troops killed and 2.5 million captured by 1917.
2) The war effort strained Russia's economy through high spending, inflation, and transportation issues that caused food shortages in cities.
3) Social unrest grew as workers faced declining living standards from inflation, shortages, and loss of life. Over 25% of soldiers went to the front unarmed by 1915.
Women Protest Movement USA
The women's rights movement developed due to growing dissatisfaction among women with traditional gender roles following World War 2. During the war, many women had taken on jobs formerly restricted to men, giving them a taste of independence. However, postwar society encouraged women to return to being homemakers. Over time, factors like higher education rates, more women in the workforce, and new social movements empowered women to demand equal rights and challenge societal expectations. Influential figures like Eleanor Roosevelt and Betty Friedan played key roles in advocating for women's issues and establishing organizations like NOW to advance women's civil rights.
Opposition to women protest movement
The document discusses the development of the women's rights movement in the United States. It provides context on key figures and organizations that advanced women's rights like Betty Friedan, Eleanor Roosevelt, and NOW (National Organization for Women). NOW aimed to achieve equal rights and end discrimination against women. The movement faced opposition from those who wanted to preserve traditional gender roles. A major point of contention was abortion rights and the Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion nationally. The movement achieved some successes but also faced limitations that prevented goals like passing the Equal Rights Amendment from being fully realized.
Student Protest Movement - Part 2
The document provides background information on the student protest movement of the 1960s. It discusses key events, organizations, and issues that students protested including:
- The Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) which advocated for greater student involvement in university governance.
- Protests against the Vietnam War as many students were drafted to fight. Opposition grew due to the rising death toll and US military tactics.
- Support for the Civil Rights Movement through freedom rides, marches, and sit-ins to end racial discrimination and segregation.
- The developing hippie counterculture that rejected mainstream values and advocated for free love, art, music and drug experimentation.
The document provides context on
Student Protest Movement
There were several key reasons for the growth of student protest movements in the 1960s. Students were dissatisfied with strict social norms and the ongoing Vietnam War. The civil rights movement inspired students to protest for equality and against racism. The emerging counter-culture embraced freedom of expression, music, drugs and sexuality. Rising student populations and expectations of change further fueled demonstrations against the government and universities.
Nixon and the watergate scandal
The Watergate Scandal involved the 1972 break-in of the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex in Washington D.C. by burglars associated with President Richard Nixon's re-election committee. Two Washington Post reporters, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, uncovered evidence that the break-in and subsequent cover-up reached senior levels of the White House. The scandal grew to involve issues of abuse of power, obstruction of justice, and political espionage. It led to the resignations of several Nixon administration officials and ultimately, the resignation of President Nixon in 1974, the only U.S. president to resign from office.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
