Introduction

We have always seen how the concept of art, crafts, and designs could be so dynamic. They radically adapt to the changes in society and sometimes, they adapt for good and sometimes they do not. This is by far the most basic explanation of the presence of the various art movements in the past. Of course there are still traces of these art movements that exist to date but they surely are not as ubiquitous as they once were. The objective of this paper was to examine the different discovered and if possible, undiscovered intersections between art, crafts, and ...

Latent prints can be defined as the pretense of individual’s ridged skin. They are generally known as friction ridges or fingerprints. These impressions are regularly imperceptible to the exposed eye despite the fact that they are surrounding us and each one of us accidently leaves them everywhere. At the point when an investigator is dealing with a crime, other than taking a gander at the physical proof, one of the main things they do is check for fingerprints. This is an exceptionally sensitive process on the grounds that relying upon the surface a latent print can without much ...

Incandescent light bulbs emit light by the heating of the filament inside the bulb. First developed by Humphrey Davy in 1802, the earliest incandescent bulbs were made from two charcoal strips with a high power battery used to pass current trough it. The flowing current lead to the production of an intense incandescent light that became the first component of the arc lamp. Future improvement was done by Warren De La Rue in 1820 utilizing the platinum coil inside an evacuated tube. This design was motivated by the high melting point of platinum that would give the lamp a better operation ...

Experiment: Investigating the integumentary system.

Introduction
Scientifically, the integumentary system consists of the skin and its appendages. It functions primarily as an outer protection for internal organs from bacteria. Superficially, the skin serves as a buffer to trauma. Its integrity decreases incidences of invasion by harmful organisms even when breakage occurs. (Martini 2009).
Beside these basic functions, the integumentary system is also responsible for insulation by assisting in regulating body temperature; production of hair; excretion of waste through pores and a sensory station for the transmission of impulses when touched. Sensory receptors present within the subcutaneous layers are also pain transmitters. (Watson 2011)

Fingerprint analysis is the oldest and common form of forensic evidence and unique of each individual. There are two types of finger prints –patent and latent. Patent fingerprints are easily visible to the naked eye and are caused by inks, blood, oil or paint ("A Simplified Guide To Fingerprint Analysis", 2017). Latent ones are not visible to the naked eye and are caused by skin secretions like oil and sweat (Daluz, n.d.). There are various ways of experimenting the latent fingerprints depending on the surface, material, temperature and chemicals. Here we will study the effect of different temperatures (hot ...

Question 1
Bible from Paris ca 1250-1275
Illuminated manuscripts are some of the best known objects from the Middle Ages. Made and illustrated by hand, they are truly works of art. Monks and nuns were often the creators of these books as monasteries were centers of learning. Manuscripts were used by the monks or churches during liturgies (Department of Medieval Art and the Cloisters, 2001). Other manuscripts were commissioned and used by royals and aristocrats or by universities that started to emerge during that time. In a world where the printing press that made books widespread had not ...

English Literature

Throughout literature, authors use symbolic imagery in order to assist the reader in conjuring up mental images from the words on the page. Symbolism is a common literary device which is used to help make the story come to life and to make it more three-dimensional (Bloom 1339). This is seen in every work of literature ever written and for the purposes of this essay, the symbolic language used in Shakespeare’s The Tempest, Sophocle’s Oedipus Rex and Tennessee Williams’ The Glass Menagerie will be discussed. In each of these texts, the author has used symbolism to help build ...

The human comprehension of reality and the world in general is truly complicated topic which is extremely individual and objective. Apart from the wholesome systems of different philosophical streams and religions, every person constructs one's own apprehension of reality and the purpose of one's lives, which are based on the whole complex of different aspects and issues, such as the human's background, one's ethnicity and culture, social status, personal traits and features of character, one's inner capacities and talents, personal life experience, etc. Apart from that, every person tends to think and rethink, makes great plans for the future, ...

“Oedipus Rex”, “The Glass Menagerie”, “The Angels in America”

The tragedies have always seemed to attract a wide range of audience because of the depth of the emotions revealed there and the turns of events which would be dreadful and inescapable, the complexity of its characters and main issues present in the plays, as well as because of a possibility for the spectators to connect to the events happening on the stage and empathize with the protagonists.
When considering the tragedy as the work of art, it is essential to view it from historical perspective, too, and try to reveal its very origins and the basic ideas which ...

This hypothesis could be viewed through two perspectives. Male faculties are more consolidated; hence ...

There is a common discussion amongst those interested in literature about the metaphors and allusions in the works of Lewis Carroll. Lewis Carroll first invented the Alice character in the work Alice in Wonderland, published in 1865. Scholars studying Carroll’s stories, including Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass have debated whether or not he was able to weave together abstract notions into a cogent story, or if he simply delivered fractured fairy tales for a 20th Century audience. The truth is that Carroll worked purely within the realm of thte imagination, and although he did occasionally ...

The Native Americans

The Native Americans originally inhabited the coastal and near-coastal areas of continental America before the period of massive expeditions led by the European superpowers of the old and new world (Howard, 2005). Due to cultural preferences, Native Americans would rather be called American Indians rather than such. Some experts believe that the reason behind such cultural preference lies behind the stereotypical definition of the term “Native American” which encompasses every tribal group that inhabited the continental America plus the other areas that were first inhabited by Americans like Hawaii and some parts of Alaska (Johansen, 2011).
It is ...

Forensic analysis

There are two main classifications of chemical compounds that forensic experts use in their qualitative and quantitative analysis; organic and inorganic. Organic refers to those compounds that are made up of carbon element as their structural backbone and are found in living organisms. On the other hand, inorganic compounds are those whose structures are based on the other elements. However, this distinction is still more general. This is because some inorganic compounds, for instance lime, also called calcium carbonate, comprises of carbon. In addition, all compounds having carbon do not necessarily come from living organisms. Cases in point are ...

Abstract:

The principal intention of this study was to come up with the most conducive internal environment in a building. At any given moment, the internal temperature of a building is a function of the amount of heat produced by sources therein and the net heat transfer into or out of the building. The four heat transfer modes are convection, radiation, conduction, and phase- change. In executing this project, the researchers sought the relevant literature to establish the thermal properties of various materials. The properties are critical in determining the amount of heat inflow and exit from the building. The ...

Gender bias goes against the growing spirit of women. With females scaling heights in almost every field, subtle forms of discrimination as glass ceiling obliterate the very nature of a transparent and healthy business ambiance. While the induction of three women combat pilots for the first time in Indian Air Force speaks of their grit, changing entrepreneurial landscape in the America and the rest of the world well reflects the growing potential of the fairer sex. Ironically, a significant gender gap still exists in employer firms despite increasing numbers of women as owners of small businesses. In addition to ...

What 2008 events gave rise to the need for this legislation?

The need for the Dodd-Frank Act (which complete name is the “Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act”) was given rise by the financial crisis of 2007–08.

Abstract

Actions taken at the beginning of a crime scene investigation can have far-reaching implications in the resolution of the crime, apprehension of the suspects and prosecution in the court of law. Meticulous and thorough investigation is key in ensuring that potential evidence is not destroyed or tampered with and witnesses overlooked. While many criminal investigation agencies employ a wide range of programs, techniques and equipment used in crime scene processing, the resources available and level of training vary from country to country. Apparently, the ability to investigate crimes has improved dramatically over the years with advances in information and ...

The Expecting Mother (fig. 1 and 2) were glass prints painted in 1985 by an unknown artist. The woman featured in this picture is seated cross-legged, head bowed down and appears to be in serene meditation concerning her pregnancy state. The woman was portrayed through simple lines but the contours created by the chiaroscuro of opposing pigments such as yellow, green, and orange made it possible to portray the actual figure of the woman despite the unrealistic image. The background was muted and this emphasized more the concentration of the viewer’s eye directly on the woman’s image. ...

The situation that characterized the WWII can best be understood by reviewing the subject in the reference to the society, economy and politics of the day. The policies and some legislation enacted during this period were of great implication. In particular, the leadership approach assumed by the influential stakeholders shaped the course of the war. It is arguable that the FDR was excessively liberal. Exploring the situations that characterized some important undertakings such the ‘Letters from Frances Perkins’ and ‘Glass-Steagall Act’ would be essential in informing this topic.
