Vandals

1. “In legal parlance, criminal homicide means ‘the causing of the death of another person without legal justification of excuse” (Schmallenger, 2015, p. 242-243). Patterns of homicide are made more complicated by the differing definitions of various types of murder between jurisdictions. Some categorize homicide based on premeditation or malice aforethought, crimes of passion, or accident. The various degrees of murder; first-degree (premeditated), second degree (crime of passion), and…

For myself, picking a topic is one of the most challenging obstacles in writing any paper, story, or essay. I have so many ideas about so many different topics it 's hard to settle on just one. However, when it was brought to my attention that we would have to make a documentary to go with our paper, I could only think of one thing; the Dark Ages. A few years ago, I remember watching this documentary on the History Channel about the Dark Ages and I was unable to finish it. Since then I have…

In the course of learning about American Pluralism, we have previously written on a number of primary and secondary prose sources and photographs. This paper investigates new types of sources, investigating attitudes on immigration found in the forms of poetry and political cartoons. While in many ways these can be similar in content to prose and photographic sources, these new forms of primary documents provide some additional information and tone that other documents do not fully capture.…

face is swap with other famous people. Over the centuries, the famous painting has withstood attempts at vandalism as well. The first occurrence of vandalism was when somebody threw acid at the bottom half, severely damaging the masterpiece. Another vandal threw a rock at the work, removing a chip of paint from near her elbow. It was eventually painted over. Since the painting had numerous counts…

graffiti, the graffiti had to be removed during the changeover, or the car was removed from service. ‘Dirty’ cars, which hadn’t yet been cleansed of graffiti where never to be mixed with ‘clean’ cars. The idea was to send an unambiguous message to the vandals themselves” (Gladwell, 189). While this project did result in less vandalism, the reader is not assured that this is not an isolated incident. Gladwell assumes this example proves to the reader that the tipping point theory is the only…

The Medieval Times are commonly known as the time of dungeons, dragons, knights and magic. However, it is so much more than that. The people of the Medieval Times weren’t cleanest, therefore they got sick very easily. Also, there was major religious conflict resulting in many deaths. Lastly, like many other places in history, women did not have equal rights. Which all supports the fact that this was a terrible time to live in. As stated before, the Medieval Times are commonly known as the time…

I am Glad the Supreme Court of the United States has amended those parts of that absurd act. Let’s just think about it for a second. If the Supreme Court hadn’t stepped in and changed things, how many families would be destroyed? How many children would have had to go without a quality education? And to think, in this instance it’s the Hispanics in this country that are being profiled. Earlier, I read an essay by Brent Staples entitled “Just Walk On By”. In the essay Staples gave a prime…

The trouble of having such a large Empire because of overexpansion was not just limited to the army however. Communication was a huge problem in regard to the central action Emperors tried to command. A colossal imagination is required to understand the hardship of collecting accurate and precise information in the Roman world. Even ruling just half of it, you were still trying to control an area larger than the modern day European Union minus the luxuries of mobile phones, planes and superfast…

Identification and the evaluation of Sources: My research project is to analyze the involvement of barbarians in the fall of the roman empire.

The article was created by John Giotto a social studies teacher in Bay Trail Middle School located in Penfield New York. John Giotto's 30 teacher ratings…
