A man from Germany named Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press, which made it possible for people to have copies of books and letters in much lesser time than they were used to. Also, their way of communicating (like writing letters to each other or expressing knowledge through books) improved because of it. The invention of the printing press was one of most notable inventions from the last millennium because it brought important changes and accomplishments. The first support of how the printing press improved in communication is how Martin Luther took advantage of the printing press to spread around his ideas of the Church and indulgences. He was the creator of the 95 Theses in 1517.
One of the great new products was the Electric Writing Machine “Typewriter” by IBM in 1935. The Ad guys used any possible media that they could. They made some fantastic claims about their products, at times they even claimed that the products were safe for the consumer when reality was a completely different story. The ad guy wanted desperately to reshape the consumer and turn them into buying machines, not having recourse for their well being and safety. They uses whatever media they could and looked for places to advertise that targeted the younger population.
An ongoing story throughout his article was that of a near-blind writer that needed an alternative from ink and paper to save his vision. Friedrich Nietzsche was the name. The man bought a typewriter, and quickly mastered it so as to not need to use his vision to write anymore. Soon enough, some acquaintances noticed a change in the style of Nietzsche’s writing. He agreed with his friend, and said under the sway of the machine, he “changed arguments to aphorisms, from thoughts to puns, from rhetoric to telegram style.” The story suggests that the Internet isn’t the sole reason for changing the way of thinking, but possibly technology in general.
25 February 2010 Beowulf Comparison BCR Robert Nye’s Beowulf: A New Telling is more effective than Beowulf: Benjamin Bagby, Voice and Anglo-Saxon Harp, Charles Morrow Productions. Robert Nye’s version of A Hall Full of Blood was a lot more effective in my eyes because it went in depth with its descriptions. In the Charles Morrow Productions the descriptions were hard to understand. For example I know this when in the text of the Charles Morrow Productions it says “...seized thirty noble thanes from their rest.” This to me was a confusing statement because it was spoken in old English. On the other hand in Robert Nye’s version it says in the text “…no sign to be seen of the thirty warriors of the king’s bodyguard.” this to me was a lot easier
Yet the numbers cannot be avoided if we are to paint an accurate picture. The challenge for the historian lies in bringing statistics to life so they tell a story with some of the human qualities that Lange and Steinbeck invested in their subjects. In looking at the 1930s in particular, historians are lucky because social scientists and government officials tried hard to quantify the human circumstances of the era. In particular, historians of the Dust Bowl era have been able to benefit from the federal population count of 1940, which was the first modern census. The federal census had been taken every decade since 1790, because its data was needed to apportion each state's seats in the House of Representatives, in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution.
Crystal then proceeds to argue each negative criticism he has come across in regards to texting. He believes that shorthand texting improves literary skills, playing around with words is fun and educational and that words have been abbreviated for many centuries; this is not a new thing that should be surprising to anyone. Crystal believes that “English has had abbreviated words ever since it began to be written
As time passed, though, even the most devoted of the old school had been forced to admit that EMRs had increased efficiency. We must decided whether the issues can be solved by an EA-SOA framework and explain our answers. The implied threat in the e-mail provoked no anxiety in Paul. While the system was under development, Paul had repeatedly insisted that patients’ privacy was critical. Jacob had calmly and exhaustively explained that making records digital would also make them more secure.
DATE: October 25, 2013 TO: Andi Stout FROM: Codie Holbert SUBJECT: Reflection on “Final for Now” Version of “Old Spice Power” For the first time I tried using ethos, pathos, logos and disruption to analyze an advertisement. During peer review I learned that my header info was accidentally double spaced, so I went back and corrected that. I also learned that my use of in-text citations was wrong, I was putting the period before the citation rather than after that, so I went back and corrected that as well. These suggestions improved my paper because it helped me put my paper in the correct format for this essay. What I found most challenging about this project is using ethos, pathos, and logos to critically analyze my selected advertisement.
There was also lots of political problems in Germany and random attacks from outside nations that scared many people into immigration. Some Germans came because of how convenient it was. With new inventions such as the steam train and the steam ship, Germans found long but cheap ways to get to America. Although it was a long trip through Great Britain by train and across the Atlantic Ocean, most Germans found it well worth it. Once in America Germans started farming.
Another efficient invention was the elevator, with the invention of the elevator businesses could now be built upwards instead of outwards, this meant now buildings would not take up as much as space. Elevators not only decreased the space in the cities but it eliminated the labor of having to carry heavy objects upwards. These three inventions changed America in every aspect of their lives and still do in today’s time. The greatest historical event in transportation in America occurred on May 10,
