Visiting the PEM museum and discovering Gardner Pingree house and the Yin Yu Tang house, I learned many things throughout my whole experience. Going through two different houses and contrasting both of the houses seemed very easy because both of the house were from two different parts of the world. The Gardener's Pingree House was from U.S.A and the Yin Yu Tang House was from China. The Yin Yu Tang house was a Chinese house whose owner was a late dynasty merchant. The house was originally located in the southeastern China. This house did not belong to a famous person or a member of an imperial household, and so it allows the visitor at the museum to have a perfect vision of an average Chinese family's home. the house was carefully dismantled and its construction analyzed also provides a unique opportunity to study traditional Chinese house construction. Three generation of the family lived in the house at once for at least 2 centuries. The Gardner Pingree House was built in 1804-1805 by john Gardner, who was a merchant. It was owned by john and Sarah Gardner, he lived in the house with his family until him and his family were murdered in the house in April 1830. The house is a three story brick, with a rectangular shape. The trim of the house is made of marble. In the Inside of the house looks as if the owner of the house were very wealthy. The walls were printed with expansive wallpaper from China. The owner of the house had designed the house with vases from China. The room…

Our criminal justice class took a trip to the Huntington and Wabash county jail this week. I was very excited to go on these trips since I had never actually got the opportunity to go into the main parts of the jail before. I was intrigued to learn more information about the jails and how they operate. To my surprise, there were many differences and similarities between the two jails. The Huntington County jail (HCJ) is located in downtown Huntington, catty corner from the court house. Having…

I’m writing about the difference between Wabash County Jail and Huntington County jail and how they compare and contrast each other. I will be telling how much inmates are held in each cell and how many the cells can hold. I will also be telling you how they feed all the inmates and how they control all the inmates. I want to talk about the electrical locked doors and how everything can be control in the control room. So first I will be telling you how I feel about these two jails and how they…

Based on The Clash of Civilization by Samuel P. Huntington, it is believed that the future of this world is on the basis of civilization which can be subdivided into culture and religion. The future conflicts, arguments and differences are basically on the level of human fundamental component itself which is civilization. There will be no longer conflict about economy, nationality or ideas, but the core of those aspects. This future projection is made based on the transformation process that…

Atalaya Internship at Huntington Beach State Park Throughout history, the idea of using interpretation and preservation in order to fully keep up a National Historic Landmark has always been very important. Without really putting in the work to make such landmarks presentable and runnable, visitors would not be able to entirely enjoy and learn the rich history that the historic place has to offer. During my role as an intern at Atalaya Castle, the winter home of Archer and Anna Hyatt…

how it affects everything. Alongside the theorizing, this essay will also look at the policies put in place by America, Britain and France in the aftermath of their respective major attacks. There have been many others, such as Spain, Belgium and those in Turkey, but the case studies of America, Britain and France offer much more information and decent criticisms to the policies of multiculturalism and security of it. Whether these policies are working as intended or not is to be…

I would like to answer how far the notion of kin-country syndrome from Samuel Huntington defines the issue of US attitude towards Palestinian-Israeli issue. But at first, I would like to define the definition of kin-country syndrome. Kin-country syndrome is a theory that initiated by Samuel Huntington on his thesis about Clash of Civilization, Kin-country syndrome means states or groups that have the same civilization, and engaged in a war against other groups of different civilizations, in…

The societies that Cook recognizes as civilizations are some of the greatest of their time, and in some cases they are among the greatest civilizations ever on earth. However, the strict guidelines he has in place for the societies he discusses to be considered civilizations end up ‘disqualifying’ many accomplished would-be civilizations as less than. Cook’s initial argument was that to be a civilization people needed to be “sufficiently large and specialized that… different kinds of people did…
