The Bungalow Craze in the US
The Bungalow Craze The bungalow style was a major influence in the drastic change of American
society and how people lived. It influenced a major shift in gender role of women in society,
creating easier housekeeping techniques and greater employment and career opportunities for
women by confronting economic and social issues in society using domestic architecture. The
simpler home design expressed many tensions of Progressivism in attempting to solve social issues
of the time. The transformation brought about new ideas as well as fears that had to be confronted.
The spread of factories from the industrial age left anxiety concerning the loss of independence and
masculinity. The middle class population was becoming salaried workers, loosing economic and
moral independence. The Progressive Era had created a deep desire to reshape institutions and
values as well as faith to reform the people. At the same time, the Arts and Crafts Movement grew in
response to the spread of factories. It drew inspiration from John Rustic, an Oxford artist, who
believed that machines were robbing people of the creativity and pleasure of work situations. The
bungalow design was influenced by a variety of social and economic trends that expanded the
middle class and became a powerful means of transformation in American society. Arts and Crafts
promoters associated the bungalow design with creative manual work, independence, and a way to
return to manhood of common work practices. The bungalow

America 's Vaping Revolution : How Suspicious Should We...
A major issues we face today is how un–informed people are on the vaping world also known as e–
cigarettes. For that I have chosen an article called America's vaping revolution: How suspicious
should we really be of the e–cigarette craze by Noah Charney posted on Sunday, Dec 7th, 2014.
This article is about what e–cigarettes are, where they came from and their uses and effects that they
can cause. I'm choosing this article because vaping (smoking E–cigarettes) is something that not a
lot of people understand. Some people believe it is bad for you and that it won't help stop smoking
and that it can still cause health issues. Other things include the cost; some say it cost less than
cigarettes and should e–cigs not be allowed in certain places. Most people are not informed about
vaping on if it's truly harmful or not they just assume it's the same as smoking a cigarettes and that's
all it is but over the years it has changed a lot.
In this article there are three major issues that should be touched on. These three things are things I
find to be wrong. First of all it states that vaping is allowed almost anywhere which is far from true
in anyway. Second it claims that smoking electronically is much less expensive than smoking actual
cigarettes which on most levels is not true. Lastly it says that smoking electronically can be just as
bad for you as smoking an actual cigarette and can cause the same effects as really smoking when
there are really not any bad effects to it. So

Examples Of Power Craze In Macbeth
Power craze occurs many times in Shakespeare's Macbeth. The female characters are excited to
have power. Lady Macbeth for instance, has to seek power through Macbeth because women weren't
given strong leadership roles back then. The witches also helped with the plot by making Macbeth
excited to murder Duncan and become king himself. Shakespeare uses Macbeth to show the
audience his views on power with women. Lady Macbeth is an example of the feminism. Lady
Macbeth puts herself with power by actually going through with her decision to murder Duncan.
Lady Macbeth makes sure that she can persuade Macbeth to kill Duncan for her. In order to do this,
she can't act very feminine like to put herself into the leadership position. "Come you spirits/ That
tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here/ And fill me from the crown to the toe top–full/ Of direst
cruelty. Make thick blood/ Stop up th' access and the passage of remorse" (Shakespeare Act I.38–
42). Lady Macbeth is upset that Macbeth gets to murder Duncan when ... Show more content on

When Macbeth starts feeling guilty about murdering Duncan, Lady Macbeth makes sure that he
doesn't feel that way anymore: "When you durst do it, then you were a man;/ And to be more than
what you were, you would/ Be so much more the man" (Shakespeare I. 49–51). Lady Macbeth
threatens Macbeth's manliness by saying he was manly, but now he isn't because he feels guilty.
Lady Macbeth then states that she would kill her own child if she promised someone to prove her
point even more. By saying this, she makes Macbeth sound weak and unmanly which makes her feel
more powerful. After that Macbeth quickly starts honoring Lady Macbeth. Shakespeare is trying

because leadership roles were only given to man. Since she is dominating Macbeth, she is in the

Analysis: The Costco Craze

Jim Senegal and his team principal are to conquest customer gratifications. The reason why Costco
is focusing on dedicate customer gratifications is because they realized that these people want to

example, $ 1.50 hot dog with drink is already inexpensive; however, Costco looks for lower–priced
to maintain customer by producing its own hot dog factory.
Therefore, Costco only sells enormous quantity instead of an individual. Similarly, Costco has

Factors Of The European Witch Craze In The 17th Century
Periods of religious, social, and economic turmoil often provoke extremist movements. This is
particularly true in regards to the European "Witch Craze," an era from the late fifteenth through the
seventeenth centuries characterized by mass hysteria towards individuals suspected of practicing
"witchcraft." However, several external factors throughout Europe served to precipitate the
persecution of these individuals, a vast majority of which were female. One such factor was the
Protestant Reformation, a movement led by influential religious figures such as Martin Luther in
Germany and Ulrich Zwingli in Switzerland, who attempted to reform the corruption and abuses of
the Roman Catholic Church, thus inadvertently leading to the formation of Protestant religions
within the Christian faith. This act of dissent amplified religious tensions throughout Europe,
therefore intensifying religious sentiments, such as the fear of satanic worship. Additionally, during
this time period, Europe was faced with immense hardships in the form of natural disasters, famine,
war, and devastation of the Black Plague, which not only created an apprehensive environment in
which many sought out an explanation or scapegoat for their misfortunes, but significantly damaged
Europe's economic stability, thus causing people to go to extremes in order to support themselves
economically. These factors were a lethal combination, creating a general climate of terror and
doubt throughout Europe. To this end,

The Pros And Cons Of Drug Craze
Drug Craze
Did you know that there is an estimated minimum of 190,000 deaths per year globally from opioid
overdoses? SIRS data base reports that all around the country the amount of overdoses from
prescribed opioids is rising. Resulting in thousands of deaths and many more hospitalized. But will
increased regulation make it more difficult for people who need the medication to acquire? This
paper will examine viewpoint one, two and my viewpoint on prescription drug abuse.
To begin with, viewpoint one believes that increased regulation and monitoring is needed to curtail
prescription drug abuse. For starters, companies such as CVS have already limited how big your
prescription can be and how strong it is without specific directions from your doctor. Firstly, most
people who are addicted never get the help they need and end up overdosing. For example,
Economist Magazine shares that "An increase in overdoses from prescription and illicit opioids such
as heroin and fentanyl, means that deaths caused by drugs exceed those from car crashes and
firearms" (Hippocrates). Thus, this point proves how serious the drug problem is in America.
Secondly, many of these addicts are expecting mothers. For instance, Margaret Wile from State
Legislatures, reports that every three minutes a women is taken to the hospital for prescription abuse
or misuse (Wile). Therefore, this confirms that drugs do not just affect us, but they can affect the
children as well. Thirdly, we are in the biggest drug

The Witch Craze Of The Sixteenth And Seventeenth Centuries
Gender, race, age, and ability have been used to shape the history and our understanding of human
sexuality, as well as how certain groups, specifically marginalized groups, were seen as degenerate
or delinquent people. When examining why and how specific groups of people were though of as
being sexual delinquents, it is important to use an intersectional lens, and consider how these
different categories and identities of gender, race, age, and ability work together to form experiences
and opinions. By marginalizing, controlling, and regulating the sexualities and bodies of those who
were women, people of colour, adolescents, or differentially abled, the social norm of a white,
heterosexual, patriarchy has been enforced through history. Throughout the history of humankind,
women's bodies and sexuality have been critiqued, chastised, and judged by society. During the

beings. Over 60,000 women were wrongfully executed by their accusers . It was believed that

In his teen years, Elvis absorbed the cultural aspects and musical style of Country, Gospel, and
Rhythm & Blues. He lived in the South, where Country music was most prevalent, it was sort of a
"given" for him for him to adopt the country music style. His parents were devout churchgoers, and
Elvis frequently attended the all night revivals, where he enjoyed jumping around and singing the
gospel. It is also known that Elvis spent quite a bit of time on Memphis's Beale Street, known for its
Rhythm & Blues clubs. When Elvis did unoriginal songs that had been sung previously by other
artists, he added his own flavor that was made up of his mixed Gospel, Country, and R & B
background. His style drew diverse crowds, and songs such as "Hound Dog" and "Don't Be Cruel"
went to #1 in the Country, R & B and Pop charts. None of this justifies the deification of Elvis. After
a brief stint in the US Army, Elvis started concentrating more on movies. He made a wide variety of

you at the sabbat, but to end torture I had to accuse someone", this is how the witch craze grew and

they were saying was inaccurate. If the person that was being accused was compliant, then the
"penitent witch/witches could look forward to being strangled before the fire was lit", this would
mean getting some relief before dying. To be compliant, the person that was being accused had to
give names of people they saw at the sabbat; which means giving names they could think of off the
top their head, meaning giving names of family, friend and neighbors.
Naturally, humans are prone to blaming their misfortunes on people or things aside from themselves.
If a woman could be a healer, then it would only make sense that she would be able to harm as well.

people blamed a witch. The people in this time believed that everything ill–fated was done by an

It could be conceived that this old–fashioned attitude which developed against a backdrop of
scientific development, sparked passion in the Puritan church to purge their society of witches.
Smith, the secularist historian, and therefore with perhaps a biased view, notes, "A patent cause of
the mania was the zeal and bibliolatry of Puritanism". Johnson concurs with this statement by
observing, "Above all, Puritanism was the dynamic behind the increase in witch–hunting". Part of
the Puritan belief is the creation of a 'land of saints' which meant that Puritans would actively seek
to banish evil from their communities, which in the 17th century, took the form of witchcraft.
Mainly stimulated by the Civil War, Puritanism rose in credibility and following as a religion.
Through the desire to create a 'land of saints' and with papal sanction (Papal Bull 1484), religious
believers were legitimately able to accuse any whom they felt were guilty of witchcraft.
The witch hunt itself was seen to be sanctioned by the church. The Papal Bull of 1484, and the
translation of the King James bible which featured the section "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live"
(Exodus 22:18) provided the legitimisation for these attacks and meant that the general public could

Social Network Sites Are A Past Craze Or Today?
1. Introduction
There has been a lot of discussions about whether social network sites are a past craze or here to
stay. In this essay, the concept of a social network site is narrower than that of social media, a social
network can be defined as " A dedicated website or other application which enables users to
communicate with each other by posting information, comments, messages, images"
(http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/social–network?q=social+network, no date).
This means that the type of social network is independent from the type of media sharing websites,
such as YouTube, and the type of Micro–blogging, such as Twitter. These social networks are often
household names, such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Belo. In fact, up to the second quarter of 2015,
there were 1.49 billion monthly active users in Facebook (Statista, 2015). It's clear that people like
using social networking sites, interacting and sharing with other users which they can add as friends.
Therefore, it is hard to say social networks are a passing fashion.
Although Bilge et al (2009) have argued that social networks will impose great harm both on users
and society, others hold a different view and claim that this is not the case and social networks might
not disappear, because they have many advantages for the users themselves and for the community.

Witch Craze Dbq Essay
The witch craze had widely spread through Europe from the Middle Ages up to the 1700's. Those
who were accused of being a witch were persecuted by the use of torture. The number of "witches"
who were tried surpassed 100,000. Witches were not viewed too fondly, for they were assumed to
associate with the Devil. The three major reasons for the persecutions of witches were economic
greed, age and gender bias, and religious beliefs. The economic greed was seen a handful of times
during the trials. In Document A7, the mayor of Bamberg, Germany writes to his daughter the
following,"...for God's sake confess something, whether it be true or not. Invent something, for you

For Calvin to use such harsh, degrading terms allows his followers to almost develop the same
mindset as him. If the great Calvin believes this, shall we do too? Another famous religious leader,
Martin Luther, embarks a similar claim as Calvin. He claims," ... sorcerers or witches are the Devil's
whores who steal milk, raise storms, ride on goats or broomsticks, lame or maim people, torture
babies...not that the Devil is unable to do these things by himself without sorcerers, for he is lord of
the world yet he will not act without human help" (Document B3). Luther's words influence his
followers the same as Calvin. In fact, even the Pope (Innocent VIII) makes strong remarks about the
witches. We see this when he says," many persons of both sexes, heedless of their own salvation and
forsaking the Catholic faith, give themselves over to the devils male and female... We therefore,
desiring, as is our duty... to remove all impediments.."(Document B2). The pope is the most grandest

zombie movie genre" (Machosky). However the reason the undead have survived so long is because
they have broadened their publicity range. Not only does the world see zombies in movies, but
mankind must "watch out for Nazi zombies rising from the grave in videos games like 'Dead Snow'

the Kingston Trio's release of the song "Zombie Jamboree". Even books have been used to spread
the disease, such as "at Borders zombie literature runs the gambit from Pride and Prejudice and

During the late fifteenth through the seventeenth centuries, thousands of individuals were persecuted
as witches. It was thought that these individuals practiced black magic and performed evil deeds, the
deeds of the devil. This all happened during a time of great change in Europe, during the time of the
Protestant Reformation, the Catholic Reformation, the Scientific Revolution, and the consolidation

stated in his "The Witch Bull," that people should "remove all impediments...to exercise their office
of inquisition and to proceed to the correction, imprisonment, and punishment of the aforesaid
persons for their said offences and crime..." (Doc. 9) The fact that the highest ranking power in
religion acknowledged the existence of witches in the world led to a whirlwind of accusation and
chaos. In the end, all three religious leaders had a strong influence on the people's beliefs. It is quite
obvious that they are biased towards their cause, and therefore are not necessarily believable or
reliable in their observations. They basically scared people in order to gain loyalty and so people
would accept and follow their sayings. This is shown in the diary entry of a young Protestant boy in
Document 12. "I suffered terribly from fear of Hell and...had, the fears that I was in." (Doc. 12) He

Review Of ' Mid Century Movie Craze ' Essay
Amanda Falwell Journal Week 1 Mid Century Movie Craze Panoramas created the desire to show

were many ways to create a panorama such as using glass plates, prints, swing lens cameras,
painting, and photographs. These machines generally were hand cranked to create motion which
tricked the eye to see a moving object. This article introduced me to John Banvard who was a man
that combined sketches and canvas into large scale moving panoramas. He worked as a scene
painter on the Chapman family's Floating Theater and created dioramic paintings on the boat.
Banvard traveled through Europe to display his innovative exhibits. While on his travel he gave
Queen Victoria a private presentation. We are Here and Not Here This reading establishes the
relationship to cinema and magic or "Cinemagic". During the nineteenth century popular

Channels and Intermediaries of Cookie Craze
Channels and Intermediaries There are three main channels for Cookie Craze. The first channel is a
direct–to–consumer channel that consists of an on–site store at our bakery. This channel is expected
to drive a considerable amount of business, probably the majority of our sales initially. The other
two channels, both coming under the umbrella of "wholesale", are through grocery outlets and
restaurants/coffee shops. The grocery channel will primarily consist of individually packaged
cookies, and gift boxes of cookies, that the stores will sell at mark–up to their customers.
Restaurants and coffee shops will make the cookies available to their customers as a menu item. The
direct to consumer channel by definition has no intermediary, other than the front–of–house staff at
Cookie Craze. The grocery store and restaurant channels will not initially have an intermediary
either. It is expected that in the early stages of the business (in other words, the foreseeable future),
these customers will all be local firms. They will either pick up the cookies at Cookie Craze, or will
arrange for delivery. Most likely, Cookie Craze will handle delivery itself. Initially the company
does not expect to need a separate driver for this, but at some point in the future options like hiring a

Causes Of The Witch Craze
The witch craze rapidly spread around Europe from 1480 to 1700, especially during the time of both
the Protestant and Catholic Reformation. From accusations to trials to persecution, over a million
Europeans were tried due to witchcraft suspicions. The trials were often rigged in favor of the
accusers, and torture was used as a method for confession in certains areas of Europe. The witch
craze had many contributing factors that allowed it to last for almost three hundred years. Three
major reasons for the persecution of individual witches were influence from religious superstitions
promoted by the Church, lack of advanced knowledge in science and medicine and social prejudice
against the lower socioeconomic class. Religious leaders condemned witches and spread the idea
that witches work for the devil. When higher power religious leaders acknowledged the existence of
witches and the detrimental effects of witches in society, it fostered fear among the people, which
encouraged accusation against many individuals. In Doc B3, Martin Luther says that "witches are
the Devil's whores who steal milk, rise storms...torture babies in their cradles...[and] that the Devil is
unable to do these things by himself." After Martin Luther preached about the threats, dangers, and
horrible things witches do, the European people were instilled with fear and were determined to put

In the article, "Be Sure You 're Right, Then Go Ahead: The Davy Crockett Gun Craze" by Sarah
Nilsen, the author tries to show how the gun crazy brought on by the Davy Crockett TV show of the
50s munipulated the viewers into accepting childhood gunplay as harmless. She states, "I intend to
cast some light on the way that children 's television programming, and in particular Disney, was
able to motivate a particular conception of guns in American culture, while effectivelly diffusing
broader social concerns and criticisms over gunplay". She also ties this gun crazy to the National
Rifle Association by their use of the social media of that era. And that the NRA used the populaity of
the Disney show Davy Crockett, to promote their agenda by showing our historical past was
centered on the gun and its ' use on the frontier by early Americas settlers. This was done to try and
ease adults fear of childhood gunplay. Some government officials and adults believed the acceptance
of childhood gunplay may have been the cause of the increase in juvenile delinquency. She also
made reference to WWII, the fear of Communism and the returning war vets and how this led to the
increase in the production and sale of guns. I found much of Nilsen 's ideas and facts very
interesting but at times a little confusing and lacking in additional information. Nilsen relates that
the increased popularity of guns for adults, was brought on by violent TV programing, movies,

The witchcraze began due to a number of factors including: the belief in magic, the idea that the

occurred, Europe underwent a number of changes. These changes included disease (specifically the
Black Death), problems of village life, religious tension (Reformation and Counter–Reformation),
little ice age, and economical changes (Atlantic world shift). These contextual changes contributed
to a world that believed in magic and the result is the witchcraze. In addition to the factors that

For starters, the most significant change was the scientific revolution; this change caused the court
to require hard evidence, which in witch trials was impossible. Without the evidence, witches could
no longer be convicted and burned at the stake. This lack of convictions led to lack of accusations,
which then ended the witchcraze. In addition to this, Levack discusses the changes in the legal
system and procedures. According to Levack, "the central judicial authorities of early modern
European states did more to restrain the process of witch–hunting than to abet it. The real initiative
in witch–hunting came from the localities, not the central government" (Levack, pg. 94). This
argument goes hand in hand with the idea that the shift from local power to centralized governments
gaining power and taking control. At this time, the monarchies gained more power; Louis XIV, an
absolute monarch is a perfect example of the change in monarchical power. When the centralized
government took power in the witchcraze, the courts were more lenient. In addition to the
centralized power, the villagers were no longer the only people accused; the elites became targets as
well. As soon as the elites themselves became targets, they were more inclined to end the

to anoint themselves, manipulating the hysteria and using it as a form of social control to make
people conform to the norms of the society and lastly, using it to explain misfortunes that afflicted
the people of the community and the neighboring ones. Firstly, a witch had confessed that before
going off on their meetings, they (the witches) anoint themselves with a special oyl that was brought
to them by a spirit and that it assisted them on their journey with the devil to Sabbat; a place filled
with merriment where their desires were being fulfilled. This ointment was said to help in the
transportation of their soul and or body to the said destination. The oyl is rubbed on their staffs,
broomstick or under their armpits and other hairy parts of their body. What was unknown to them
was that the ointment contained hallucinogenic active agents from plants like mandrake, henbane,
and belladonna (also referred to as deadly nightshade). From these plants, the active hallucinogenic
agent, atropine can be found in them and according to Marvin Harris, "atropine is...absorbable

The evidence of witchcraft and related works has been around for many centuries. Gradually,
though, a mixture a religious, economical, and political reasons instigated different periods of fear

victim do evil and strange deeds. (Sutter par. 1) In the sixteenth, seventeenth, and twentieth century,

Neighbors accused neighbors of witchcraft, and the fright was mounting. (Sutter par. 4) The accused
were mostly women, and to make them confess, different methods of torture were used. The
confessions and trials of the accused witches were nonsense. Often, torture would continue until the
victim had no choice but to confess of being a witch, and most of the confessions were forced. Trials
and hangings continued and by the early autumn of 1692, doubts were developing as to how so
many respectable people could be guilty. The educated elite of the colony began efforts to end the
witch–hunting hysteria that had enveloped Salem. Increase Mather then published a work entitled
Cases of Conscience, which argues that it were better that ten suspected witches should escape than
one innocent person should be condemned. This urged the court to exclude spectral evidence. With
spectral evidence not permitted, the remaining trials ended in acquittals and all the convicted and
accused witches were let out of jail in May of 1693. By the time the whole witchcraft incident
ended, nineteen convicted witches were hanged, at least four accused witches had died in prison,
and one man, Giles Corey, had been pressed to death under rocks. About one to two hundred other
people were arrested and imprisoned on witchcraft charges. The witchcraft accusations in Salem had

Most notably, the fat claims have been retracted. Fat is often times not the actual cause of fat
production in the body as well as it is not the source of many diseases that it was thought to cause.
Obviously overabundance of any food can be harmful, but there are other, more immediate culprits.
In fact, healthy fats improve cholesterol levels and lower the risk of heart disease.
Sugar is actually a more direct source of fat production. Before humans discovered refined sugar
and much before they began adding it to such a large percentage of foods, glucose was a difficult
nutrient to find and provide for an everyday diet. In fact, one of the only natural sources before
processed foods was fruit. Fruit is a perfect source of glucose because it also provides fiber which
helps the body to break down sugar and use it as energy to power the vital organs rather than store it
as fat. Other sources of sugar, meaning sugar additives, do not provide the same fiber. And now,
humans are consuming a gross amount of sugar daily, far exceeding the recommended amount each
day on average, as shown in the graphic below taken from the "Breakdown of Your Sugar

The Bungalow Craze In The US

  • 1. The Bungalow Craze in the US The Bungalow Craze The bungalow style was a major influence in the drastic change of American society and how people lived. It influenced a major shift in gender role of women in society, creating easier housekeeping techniques and greater employment and career opportunities for women by confronting economic and social issues in society using domestic architecture. The simpler home design expressed many tensions of Progressivism in attempting to solve social issues of the time. The transformation brought about new ideas as well as fears that had to be confronted. The spread of factories from the industrial age left anxiety concerning the loss of independence and masculinity. The middle class population was becoming salaried workers, loosing economic and moral independence. The Progressive Era had created a deep desire to reshape institutions and values as well as faith to reform the people. At the same time, the Arts and Crafts Movement grew in response to the spread of factories. It drew inspiration from John Rustic, an Oxford artist, who believed that machines were robbing people of the creativity and pleasure of work situations. The bungalow design was influenced by a variety of social and economic trends that expanded the middle class and became a powerful means of transformation in American society. Arts and Crafts promoters associated the bungalow design with creative manual work, independence, and a way to return to manhood of common work practices. The bungalow ...

  • 3. America 's Vaping Revolution : How Suspicious Should We... A major issues we face today is how un–informed people are on the vaping world also known as e– cigarettes. For that I have chosen an article called America's vaping revolution: How suspicious should we really be of the e–cigarette craze by Noah Charney posted on Sunday, Dec 7th, 2014. This article is about what e–cigarettes are, where they came from and their uses and effects that they can cause. I'm choosing this article because vaping (smoking E–cigarettes) is something that not a lot of people understand. Some people believe it is bad for you and that it won't help stop smoking and that it can still cause health issues. Other things include the cost; some say it cost less than cigarettes and should e–cigs not be allowed in certain places. Most people are not informed about vaping on if it's truly harmful or not they just assume it's the same as smoking a cigarettes and that's all it is but over the years it has changed a lot. In this article there are three major issues that should be touched on. These three things are things I find to be wrong. First of all it states that vaping is allowed almost anywhere which is far from true in anyway. Second it claims that smoking electronically is much less expensive than smoking actual cigarettes which on most levels is not true. Lastly it says that smoking electronically can be just as bad for you as smoking an actual cigarette and can cause the same effects as really smoking when there are really not any bad effects to it.

  • 5. Examples Of Power Craze In Macbeth Power craze occurs many times in Shakespeare's Macbeth. The female characters are excited to have power. Lady Macbeth for instance, has to seek power through Macbeth because women weren't given strong leadership roles back then. The witches also helped with the plot by making Macbeth excited to murder Duncan and become king himself. Shakespeare uses Macbeth to show the audience his views on power with women. Lady Macbeth is an example of the feminism. Lady Macbeth puts herself with power by actually going through with her decision to murder Duncan. Lady Macbeth makes sure that she can persuade Macbeth to kill Duncan for her. In order to do this, she can't act very feminine like to put herself into the leadership position. "Come you spirits/ That tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here/ And fill me from the crown to the toe top–full/ Of direst cruelty. Make thick blood/ Stop up th' access and the passage of remorse" (Shakespeare Act I.38– 42). Lady Macbeth is upset that Macbeth gets to murder Duncan when ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... When Macbeth starts feeling guilty about murdering Duncan, Lady Macbeth makes sure that he doesn't feel that way anymore: "When you durst do it, then you were a man;/ And to be more than what you were, you would/ Be so much more the man" (Shakespeare I. 49–51). Lady Macbeth threatens Macbeth's manliness by saying he was manly, but now he isn't because he feels guilty. Lady Macbeth then states that she would kill her own child if she promised someone to prove her point even more. By saying this, she makes Macbeth sound weak and unmanly which makes her feel more powerful. After that Macbeth quickly starts honoring Lady Macbeth. Shakespeare is trying show us that Lady Macbeth is starting to become man like, and that she isn't acting very feminine because leadership roles were only given to man. Since she is dominating Macbeth, she is in the control of the "mission" which back then was very manly rather than ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Analysis: The Costco Craze By watching 2012 CNBC special "The Costco Craze" video, I realize the most essential aspects of running a successful business is not all about how significant profits you make. In the other hand, it all about how much time you put into the business to satisfy customer desires, which thrusts Costco to compete with other companies around the world. Jim Senegal, CEO of Costco, has a confident attitude in which he directs his small business into a larger corporation using his exclusive managing styles. These managing styles are prioritizing employee benefits, understanding customer needs, recognizing the values of mistakes, and engaging in the business. First, prioritizing Costco's employee benefits. According to the video, Costco is acknowledged for offering employees, including health coverage, and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Jim Senegal and his team principal are to conquest customer gratifications. The reason why Costco is focusing on dedicate customer gratifications is because they realized that these people want to purchase decent quality products, but they don't want to spend tremendous money on it. For example, $ 1.50 hot dog with drink is already inexpensive; however, Costco looks for lower–priced to maintain customer by producing its own hot dog factory. Therefore, Costco only sells enormous quantity instead of an individual. Similarly, Costco has limited choices of product to minor in order to receive more profits. Moreover, Costco comprehends on the economic situation, which strike customer to bargain it. Third, recognizing the value of mistakes. First, Costco teams learned from the previous experience and used it to assist them in the future. In order to expand the business, Costco takes risks with its own investments. Second, Costco is changing the way of direction by twisting the idea around. For example, doll backpacks because if it doesn't mean the customer requirements, then it unusable to put that particular product in the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Nancy Luna, staff writer of the OC Register, describes in her article "Gourmet Doughnut craze gets wackier with build–your–own 'donut' shop in Irvine" that the latest trend offers an irreplaceable twist by allowing customers to create specific doughnuts with a variety of toppings and glazes (Luna). Toppings range from fresh fruit to chocolate chips; in addition, yeast doughnut flavors include tiramisu, maple bacon, burnt pistachio, and crème brulee.

  • 13. Factors Of The European Witch Craze In The 17th Century Periods of religious, social, and economic turmoil often provoke extremist movements. This is particularly true in regards to the European "Witch Craze," an era from the late fifteenth through the seventeenth centuries characterized by mass hysteria towards individuals suspected of practicing "witchcraft." However, several external factors throughout Europe served to precipitate the persecution of these individuals, a vast majority of which were female. One such factor was the Protestant Reformation, a movement led by influential religious figures such as Martin Luther in Germany and Ulrich Zwingli in Switzerland, who attempted to reform the corruption and abuses of the Roman Catholic Church, thus inadvertently leading to the formation of Protestant religions within the Christian faith. This act of dissent amplified religious tensions throughout Europe, therefore intensifying religious sentiments, such as the fear of satanic worship. Additionally, during this time period, Europe was faced with immense hardships in the form of natural disasters, famine, war, and devastation of the Black Plague, which not only created an apprehensive environment in which many sought out an explanation or scapegoat for their misfortunes, but significantly damaged Europe's economic stability, thus causing people to go to extremes in order to support themselves economically. These factors were a lethal combination, creating a general climate of terror and doubt throughout Europe. To this end, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 15. The Pros And Cons Of Drug Craze Drug Craze Did you know that there is an estimated minimum of 190,000 deaths per year globally from opioid overdoses? SIRS data base reports that all around the country the amount of overdoses from prescribed opioids is rising. Resulting in thousands of deaths and many more hospitalized. But will increased regulation make it more difficult for people who need the medication to acquire? This paper will examine viewpoint one, two and my viewpoint on prescription drug abuse. To begin with, viewpoint one believes that increased regulation and monitoring is needed to curtail prescription drug abuse. For starters, companies such as CVS have already limited how big your prescription can be and how strong it is without specific directions from your doctor. Firstly, most people who are addicted never get the help they need and end up overdosing. For example, Economist Magazine shares that "An increase in overdoses from prescription and illicit opioids such as heroin and fentanyl, means that deaths caused by drugs exceed those from car crashes and firearms" (Hippocrates).

  • 17. The Witch Craze Of The Sixteenth And Seventeenth Centuries Gender, race, age, and ability have been used to shape the history and our understanding of human sexuality, as well as how certain groups, specifically marginalized groups, were seen as degenerate or delinquent people. When examining why and how specific groups of people were though of as being sexual delinquents, it is important to use an intersectional lens, and consider how these different categories and identities of gender, race, age, and ability work together to form experiences and opinions. By marginalizing, controlling, and regulating the sexualities and bodies of those who were women, people of colour, adolescents, or differentially abled, the social norm of a white, heterosexual, patriarchy has been enforced through history. Throughout the history of humankind, women's bodies and sexuality have been critiqued, chastised, and judged by society. During the witch craze of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, many women were accused of being evil beings. Over 60,000 women were wrongfully executed by their accusers . It was believed that woman who were midwives, challenged male authority, or were sexually promiscuous and given themselves to Satin and were now evil and immoral beings. The more "feminine" senses, touch, smell, and taste were often associated with being a witch .

I don't think he was a handsome man, I don't enjoy his music, I won't waste my time trying to sit through one of his boring, talentless movies, and if, God forbid, I end up on my deathbed with some horrible, incurable disease, I certainly won't make a pilgrimage to Graceland to be miraculously healed.

In his teen years, Elvis absorbed the cultural aspects and musical style of Country, Gospel, and Rhythm & Blues. He lived in the South, where Country music was most prevalent, it was sort of a "given" for him for him to adopt the country music style. His parents were devout churchgoers, and Elvis frequently attended the all night revivals, where he enjoyed jumping around and singing the gospel. It is also known that Elvis spent quite a bit of time on Memphis's Beale Street, known for its Rhythm & Blues clubs. When Elvis did unoriginal songs that had been sung previously by other artists, he added his own flavor that was made up of his mixed Gospel, Country, and R & B background. His style drew diverse crowds, and songs such as "Hound Dog" and "Don't Be Cruel" went to #1 in the Country, R & B and Pop charts. None of this justifies the deification of Elvis. After a brief stint in the US Army, Elvis started concentrating more on movies. He made a wide variety of movies, GI Blues, Blue Hawaii, Viva Las Vegas, and Fun in Acapulco to name a few. Although the movies were basically glorified music videos, as they contained no real plot and a lot of singing, these movies and their songs made millions.

The torture was so horrible people would do anything they could to get out of it. "I have never seen you at the sabbat, but to end torture I had to accuse someone", this is how the witch craze grew and spread so quickly. People would name random people to try and escape the torcher, even if what they were saying was inaccurate. If the person that was being accused was compliant, then the "penitent witch/witches could look forward to being strangled before the fire was lit", this would mean getting some relief before dying. To be compliant, the person that was being accused had to give names of people they saw at the sabbat; which means giving names they could think of off the top their head, meaning giving names of family, friend and neighbors. Naturally, humans are prone to blaming their misfortunes on people or things aside from themselves. If a woman could be a healer, then it would only make sense that she would be able to harm as well. Whenever something bad happened, like crops dying instead of blaming the weather the towns people blamed a witch. The people in this time believed that everything ill–fated was done by an evil presence or was deficient.

Germany and Scotland were the areas that were most heavily purged, with an estimated 4000 witches dying in Scotland and 26 000 dying in Germany (Gibbons).

A number of theories have developed from historians as to what sparked the witchcraft craze; ideas of the Reformation and rise of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... It could be conceived that this old–fashioned attitude which developed against a backdrop of scientific development, sparked passion in the Puritan church to purge their society of witches. Smith, the secularist historian, and therefore with perhaps a biased view, notes, "A patent cause of the mania was the zeal and bibliolatry of Puritanism". Johnson concurs with this statement by observing, "Above all, Puritanism was the dynamic behind the increase in witch–hunting". Part of the Puritan belief is the creation of a 'land of saints' which meant that Puritans would actively seek to banish evil from their communities, which in the 17th century, took the form of witchcraft. Mainly stimulated by the Civil War, Puritanism rose in credibility and following as a religion. Through the desire to create a 'land of saints' and with papal sanction (Papal Bull 1484), religious believers were legitimately able to accuse any whom they felt were guilty of witchcraft. The witch hunt itself was seen to be sanctioned by the church. The Papal Bull of 1484, and the translation of the King James bible which featured the section "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live" (Exodus 22:18) provided the legitimisation for these attacks and meant that the general public could hunt witches and be devoid of ...

In this essay, the concept of a social network site is narrower than that of social media, a social network can be defined as " A dedicated website or other application which enables users to communicate with each other by posting information, comments, messages, images" (http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/social–network?q=social+network, no date). This means that the type of social network is independent from the type of media sharing websites, such as YouTube, and the type of Micro–blogging, such as Twitter. These social networks are often household names, such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Belo. In fact, up to the second quarter of 2015, there were 1.49 billion monthly active users in Facebook (Statista, 2015). It's clear that people like using social networking sites, interacting and sharing with other users which they can add as friends. Therefore, it is hard to say social networks are a passing fashion. Although Bilge et al (2009) have argued that social networks will impose great harm both on users and society, others hold a different view and claim that this is not the case and social networks might not disappear, because they have many advantages for the users themselves and for the community.

In the end, all three religious leaders had a strong influence on the people's beliefs. It is quite obvious that they are biased towards their cause, and therefore are not necessarily believable or reliable in their observations.

This article introduced me to John Banvard who was a man that combined sketches and canvas into large scale moving panoramas.

The other two channels, both coming under the umbrella of "wholesale", are through grocery outlets and restaurants/coffee shops. The grocery channel will primarily consist of individually packaged cookies, and gift boxes of cookies, that the stores will sell at mark–up to their customers.

  • 53. Causes Of The Witch Craze The witch craze rapidly spread around Europe from 1480 to 1700, especially during the time of both the Protestant and Catholic Reformation. From accusations to trials to persecution, over a million Europeans were tried due to witchcraft suspicions. The trials were often rigged in favor of the accusers, and torture was used as a method for confession in certains areas of Europe. The witch craze had many contributing factors that allowed it to last for almost three hundred years. Three major reasons for the persecution of individual witches were influence from religious superstitions promoted by the Church, lack of advanced knowledge in science and medicine and social prejudice against the lower socioeconomic class. Religious leaders condemned witches and spread the idea that witches work for the devil. When higher power religious leaders acknowledged the existence of witches and the detrimental effects of witches in society, it fostered fear among the people, which encouraged accusation against many individuals. In Doc B3, Martin Luther says that "witches are the Devil's whores who steal milk, rise storms...torture babies in their cradles...[and] that the Devil is unable to do these things by himself."

In the article, "Be Sure You 're Right, Then Go Ahead: The Davy Crockett Gun Craze" by Sarah Nilsen, the author tries to show how the gun crazy brought on by the Davy Crockett TV show of the 50s munipulated the viewers into accepting childhood gunplay as harmless. She states, "I intend to cast some light on the way that children 's television programming, and in particular Disney, was able to motivate a particular conception of guns in American culture, while effectivelly diffusing broader social concerns and criticisms over gunplay". She also ties this gun crazy to the National Rifle Association by their use of the social media of that era. And that the NRA used the populaity of the Disney show Davy Crockett, to promote their agenda by showing our historical past was centered on the gun and its ' use on the frontier by early Americas settlers. This was done to try and ease adults fear of childhood gunplay. Some government officials and adults believed the acceptance of childhood gunplay may have been the cause of the increase in juvenile delinquency. She also made reference to WWII, the fear of Communism and the returning war vets and how this led to the increase in the production and sale of guns. I found much of Nilsen 's ideas and facts very interesting but at times a little confusing and lacking in additional information.

Ap Euro Dbq Witch Craze The witchcraze began due to a number of factors including: the belief in magic, the idea that the paranoia of the elites trickled down into the villages, and the idea of context. When the witchcraze occurred, Europe underwent a number of changes. These changes included disease (specifically the Black Death), problems of village life, religious tension (Reformation and Counter–Reformation), little ice age, and economical changes (Atlantic world shift). These contextual changes contributed to a world that believed in magic and the result is the witchcraze.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... For starters, the most significant change was the scientific revolution; this change caused the court to require hard evidence, which in witch trials was impossible. Without the evidence, witches could no longer be convicted and burned at the stake. This lack of convictions led to lack of accusations, which then ended the witchcraze. In addition to this, Levack discusses the changes in the legal system and procedures. According to Levack, "the central judicial authorities of early modern European states did more to restrain the process of witch–hunting than to abet it. The real initiative in witch–hunting came from the localities, not the central government" (Levack, pg. 94). This argument goes hand in hand with the idea that the shift from local power to centralized governments gaining power and taking control. At this time, the monarchies gained more power; Louis XIV, an absolute monarch is a perfect example of the change in monarchical power. When the centralized government took power in the witchcraze, the courts were more lenient. In addition to the centralized power, the villagers were no longer the only people accused; the elites became targets as well. As soon as the elites themselves became targets, they were more inclined to end the witchcraze.

There has been a huge jump in this new craze of "trigger warnings" and how many students at colleges and universities want the classroom and main discussion to be that we don't discuss and confront the uncomfortable. What is the point in sweeping it under the rug and not dealing with it? Not only is that unhealthy but it doesn't help future students.

Neighbors accused neighbors of witchcraft, and the fright was mounting. (Sutter par. 4) The accused were mostly women, and to make them confess, different methods of torture were used. The confessions and trials of the accused witches were nonsense. Often, torture would continue until the victim had no choice but to confess of being a witch, and most of the confessions were forced. Trials and hangings continued and by the early autumn of 1692, doubts were developing as to how so many respectable people could be guilty. The educated elite of the colony began efforts to end the witch–hunting hysteria that had enveloped Salem. Increase Mather then published a work entitled Cases of Conscience, which argues that it were better that ten suspected witches should escape than one innocent person should be condemned. This urged the court to exclude spectral evidence. With spectral evidence not permitted, the remaining trials ended in acquittals and all the convicted and accused witches were let out of jail in May of 1693. By the time the whole witchcraft incident ended, nineteen convicted witches were hanged, at least four accused witches had died in prison, and one man, Giles Corey, had been pressed to death under rocks. About one to two hundred other people were arrested and imprisoned on witchcraft charges. The witchcraft accusations in Salem had taken the lives of at least twenty–four people.

Sugar was first added to many non–sweet foods as a substitute for fat. Fat, being viewed as the enemy was removed from many products as a "healthier option" and to keep that same good taste, the missing fat was replaced with sugar. Recent research has shown that this decision could have ultimately been the cause for many of society's modern ailments. The abundance of sugar present in today's nutritional standards is detrimental to future and present human health.

Fat is often times not the actual cause of fat production in the body as well as it is not the source of many diseases that it was thought to cause. Obviously overabundance of any food can be harmful, but there are other, more immediate culprits. In fact, healthy fats improve cholesterol levels and lower the risk of heart disease. Sugar is actually a more direct source of fat production. Before humans discovered refined sugar and much before they began adding it to such a large percentage of foods, glucose was a difficult nutrient to find and provide for an everyday diet. In fact, one of the only natural sources before processed foods was fruit. Fruit is a perfect source of glucose because it also provides fiber which helps the body to break down sugar and use it as energy to power the vital organs rather than store it as fat. Other sources of sugar, meaning sugar additives, do not provide the same fiber. And now, humans are consuming a gross amount of sugar daily, far exceeding the recommended amount each day on average, as shown in the graphic below taken from the "Breakdown of Your Sugar Addiction" done by the Cleveland Clinic.
