The Opium War, is a historical epic film directed by Chinese director Xie Jin and was strategically released in 1997 to coincide with the Hong Kong handover ceremony. With its self-explanatory title, the film recounts the conflict between Qing Dynasty of Imperial China and the British Empire over the issue of trade and opium that gradually escalated into a war.

12 angry men movie analysis: 12 Angry Men is a 1957 American drama film with elements of film noir, adapted from a teleplay of the same name by Reginald Rose written and co-produced by Rose himself. Analysis: 1. The 12 jurors all have particular backgrounds, perspective and beliefs about honesty and the boy’s role in the murder.

dyads he encouraged members to discuss the case clearly and objectively examining pieces of evidences used in court.

strikes your out. But we see three different times that they fought, each argument worse than the last. The first argument was brought about by Cory wanting to play football, and Troy wanting him to get a job and work. By the end of this argument Troy angers Cory to the point where he storms out of the yard in anger when he losses the chance to play the sport he loves by the hand of his

The basketball world mourns the passing of a legend this week. I could reprint the same quotes most other news sources have, but instead, I'd like to share who Pat Summitt was to me. As a girl that grew up as a tomboy, most of my heroes were male, including Superman, the Hulk, Luke Skywalker, Don Mattingly of the Yankees, and I modelled my basketball moves after Charles Barkley, but there was one amazing lady that topped them all- Pat Summitt, the greatest college basketball coach in history.

intensities, and frequencies when they express their emotions.

ETHS wins and we talk about how they used man to man defense to stifle New Trier’s three point attack. I love watching momentum shifts as a team goes on an eight to zero run randomly in the middle of the third quarter. I love listening to the play-by-play guy Chris paint the games picture with his words the way Shakespeare did with his plays. I love the way Ms. Brown tells the fans how the screen set by Nojel freed up a shot for Chris who wasn’t involved in the screen. Color Commentating for the

would work and as Karl Marx stated in the book, “Let the ruling classes tremble at a Communist revolution” (Communist Manifesto). This just shows that Karl Marx did not believe that people could be rescued from oppression until we put Communism in play. Ten Days That Shook the World is clearly written in the eyes of a man who experienced capitalism that was not working so he pushed for Communism as well but from a different standpoint than Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. I really enjoyed learning

Sinclair’s book The Jungle shows the hard situations that people in the time period unfortunately had. With many families coming into America, people were coming from all over to work in these jobs. The story follows Jergis, an immigrant who gets married and gets a new job at the meat packaging plant in Packingtown. His entire family moves out of a very small apartment and into a bigger and nicer house. Once they miss a payment however, they get evicted from this house and have to return to living

Christmas! Christmas! Christmas! My school has decided to make our Christmas break one week instead of two weeks for Christmas break! Although some people believe that having one week instead of two will help you learn more, it may actually be argued that having two weeks may help your brain think on other things, since it is a reward and the school gave it to us. If you just take away half of something it's like giving someone twenty dollars, and then just takes ten away, and thatś pretty mean

My play observation took place at Mill 180 Park in Easthampton, Massachusetts on February 17, 2018 between the hours of 12:15 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. This is an indoor urban hydroponic park where children can enjoy a variety of different games, food, and an open play area to interact with others. While I was at the park, I observed two school-aged Caucasians engaging in unstructured play. The children were siblings, with the boy being ten years old and his sister eight years old. When I first observed

size sofas, two kid size arm chairs, and a carpet with ABC’s and 123’s. The painting and play dough center is next to the library center. There is an easel in the painting center with a drying rack for the art work. The students were introduced to the painting part of the center the day I observed. They used water color paints to paint a picture. The painting materials are stored on the cabinet. The play dough part of the center had no materials because that part of the center had not been introduced

Thus allowing the audience to reflect how problematic it was. One way this is done is through Birling’s speech “the Titanic… forty six thousand eight hundred tons… unsinkable, absolutely unsinkable”. The Titanic represents the greatest technological advancement at that time frame and thus could represent the Birling family, as Mr Birling is an industrialist, and thus the middle class. The repetition

controversial play, which was once banned in Germany, of Frank Wedekind. The action of the musical play is set in a provincial German town in the late nineteenth-century with over conservative adults. When singing, the girls and boys assume the manner of contemporary teens, and we enter the world of the character singing that seems timeless. The rock score and emotional book take the story of sexual awakening of teenagers as they discovery the inner and outer uproar of sexuality. The musical play portrays

first to enjoy an 8 hour work day (History of the Eight Hour Day). December 28, 1869, the formation of the Knights of Labor: The Knights of Labor was an organization of about 700,000 people in 1886. The organization was very successful because it did not reach out to a select group of people, instead it reached out to everyone.

In 1857, the labor movement became more and more common. Many women went on strike for the first time, and tens of thousands of women marched in New York and New Jersey in support of higher wages and shorter working hours. During the civil war, food prices rose sharply and the strike continued. By 1864, about 200,000 workers had joined the union. Many union workers opposed the civil war and staged a strike. The federal government often sends troops to fight and attack war protesters. In 1863, a massive

For this assignment, I chose to analyze "Thinner Than You," a piece by Maureen Connor in 1990. I chose to analyze this piece as it was the one I found most relatable throughout the chapter. "Thinner Than You" is simply a display of a hanger holding an evening gown that is cinched at the waist to impossibly thin proportions. This piece is an example of artwork that is about the body but does not actually depict any body parts. The display is very simple being a dress on a hanger, but I find it very
