reading up on the UK abandoning the European Union I am starting to feel this was not a good decision from looking outside in; before making that finally decision I am going to investigate what happened let’s start. First off what is a referendum? Apparently is a voting that took place in the UK on June 23, 2016 that decided if the UK should remain or leave the European Union. Considering the leave vote won by 52%, what is the backlash for the UK leaving the European Union? What does this mean…

On Thursday, June 23rd the people of Britain went to the polls and made a decision that will reshape history for the United Kingdom and the rest of Europe. The referendum vote to leave the European Union, commonly referred to as Brexit, is not one many people predicted would pass.

Theoretically, the term 'Public Art ' (municipal or community art) signifies any work of art which is designed for and located in a space available to the general populace, from a public square to a enclosure within a building freely accessible to the general public.

A lot of the public art, which has fortunately evaded being classified as antiquity, contains a…

Expectations and the Brexit by Amelia HC Ylagan In the cusp of the 19th century, Dickens is perhaps the most famous romantic writer telling of the social consequences of the Industrial Revolution in England at that time, in the narrative of a “condition-of-England” as the growing-up storyline (Bildungsroman) would paint, and in the message of challenged traditions as the Victorian girdling had constrained. The pathos of the Victorian novel is mostly based on a foundation-emotion of isolation…

The lithuanian and italian bootback bothers stories started off rocky due to the lithuanian listening to his fellow countrymen about how he must “ look rich even if you are not rich” using the little bit money he brought with him to America to buy a a expensive suit and to bribe to the police officer to help secure a job in the slaughterhouse. The bootblack brothers were taken advantage of as soon they stepped off the boat.…

x“Survival of the Fittest” that has always been my ideology, I had never questioned before why some countries were rich and others were poor. I did question the state of poverty in my country; I had learned in many history classes in high school that when my country became independent we were leading the Caribbean in industry and economy, however by the time I was in high school we were second to last just above Haiti. I always thought that our financial ruin was caused by poor leadership, and…

World War I was a gruesome event in history which saw over eight million soldiers lose their lives whilst defending their nations freedom, until Germany agreed to armistice on the 11th of November 1918. The peace agreement, known as the Treaty of Versailles, was signed on the 28th of June 1919 exactly five years after Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated, officially ending the conflict between Germany and the Allied Powers. The treaty’s content was predominantly negotiated by the Big…

meaning it produces trace amounts of greenhouse gasses, such as carbon dioxide, into the atmosphere. Awareness about climate change has influenced people and policy to push for alternative energy initiatives like the Clean Air Act of 1970, or the European Union’s 20/20/20 policy (2008) to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. “In 2012, the Energy Information Administration reported that greenhouse gas emissions in the power sector were 15 percent below 2005 levels, due in part to carbon-free…
