Need for preparation
Concrete surfaces transport moisture and air. Horizontal concrete surfaces such as pavements have higher contents of moisture. There is, therefore, need for adequate preparation and testing before painting such surfaces to maximize long-term durability of the paint.

Painters are bound to use more paint than estimated in their budgets. Mark Dixon in his book House painting inside and out explains that the exterior concrete ...

I fully agree with the assertion that art should be studied because of its importance to the culture and unique identity of a people. While some may dismiss art critique and appreciation as hobbies, or 'useless,' because it does not make as much money as banking, law or medicine, it is absolutely vital to determining exactly why we exist. We do not exist to make money; that is the means to an end. What we do with our existence and our creativity is what is important; the results of those efforts constitutes art. In order to enrich ...
Book X. The Republic.
The philosopher, Plato, wrote The Republic in dialogue form using the Socratic method of questioning. Book 10 is about aesthetics; one of the branches of philosophy which is similar to the philosophy of art. Socrates, the narrator and his companion explore the meaning of imitation poetry from the beginning (Plato 658).
That is because true art is from the very soul of the creator not from making an imitation. So the artist must create from the soul to make true art. But Plato does not seem to think it is possible for a human to create from the soul. ...

Let’s say that your local homeowner’s association put in a new rule mandating that everyone in the community use the same color of paint for their fences. You’ve long enjoyed that dark brown on your fence – almost black, in fact. However, the color that the association chose is more of a rich cordovan. As more and more of your neighbors comply with the new rules, you start to get some notices from the association that you are no longer in compliance.

George Braque understood art in terms of lines, mass, volume and weight used these elements to create subjective beauty. The purpose of art was to create rapport between him and the art piece (Mical, 2003). Braque yearned to not only see but touch artwork and so he created pieces that bridged the manual space and later incorporated other materials like sand and paper onto the canvas. He fragmented his subjects into pieces as a way of getting close to the subject like an artistic surgeon. Fragmentation allowed him to achieve space and movement in his pieces. In the Violin ...

Creative Social activities that incorporate children with special needs
Introduction
Children with special needs, like every other child, long for a peer group to associate. When peer groups do not appreciate their presence or effort, their emotion growth is affected.

Young children are playful and engage in many social activities such as fun games and interesting learning activities. Most of these activities require a group of participants and competition for enjoyment. When the children with disabilities are completely unable to participate effectively or enjoy the activities equally, they feel odd ...

Pollutant gases tend to have an impact on both health and environment. Many nations rely on oil for energy use and advancement, hence imports every last bit of its oil and gas needs. Unfortunately, this has brought about dangerous effects upon the environment such as affecting the ozone, causes global warming, acid rain and smog. This may come about when fossil fuels are burnt to form these gases.
