influence people’s mind. Picture can change perception‚ social‚ political position and even identity. I want to talk about most popular and influential documentary photo that changed the world. It would be hard to imagine a technology that had more impact on 20th century life than photography: the automobile‚ the airplane‚ nuclear power‚ all of these were higher profile than photography‚ yet in day-to-day terms‚ photography was truly the most pervasive. First I`d like to tell some facts about

How has globalisation transformed the world? Globalisation is the process by which the world’s economy is becoming more interconnected. This is happening through our increased exposure to foreign culture and trade. Since the start of the 20th century rapid development has occurred within globalisation with large-scale purchase and sale of goods. In many ways the effects that have been felt from globalisation have been positive. Often globalisation means for LEDCs an influx of chances at jobs

Over time the English language has developed through three main stages; Old English‚ Middle English and Modern English. Old English is the earliest recorded stage of the English language and is very different to Modern English which we speak today. Native English speakers would find it very difficult trying to understand Old and Middle English. One of the main influences in the change of the English language is invasion. During the 5th century the Angles‚ the Saxons and the Jutes invaded Britain

Music and motion pictures‚ two of the most popular forms of entertainment today‚ can easily be traced back hundreds of years ago. Yet a relatively newer form of entertainment (and information) has impacted those long-established industries in as little as a few years: the internet. Recorded music‚ technically speaking‚ can be traced back to April 9th‚ 1860 with “Au Clair de la Lune” by Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville . Though music existed long before this date‚ it marks the first time music

Clock is the best invention in the world! The history of clocks is very long. There are many different types of clocks over the years. The word ‘clock’ was first used in the 14th century. It comes from the word for bell in Latin (“clocca”). The very first timekeepers were natural clocks such as the sun‚ moon and stars. Ancient people used sticks and stones to find out the time around 3500 B.C. When it was between 3500 BCE and 1949‚ the inventors improved clocks‚ and became the clock that

Paper Airplanes Project Design Plan: * I want to know what type of paper airplane model will fly the farthest. I believe airplane design is very important when trying to see how far a paper airplane will fly. The different shape and narrowness or width as well as weight distribution are all factors in flight distance. So if I have a narrow paper airplane‚ a very wide one‚ and one in between‚ which on will fly the farthest? * The relevance of this experiment is similar to understanding

OThe Physics of Airplanes Background: At any given moment‚ roughly 5‚000 airplanes crisscross the skies above the United States alone‚ amounting to an estimated 64 million commercial and private takeoffs every year (source: NATCA). Considering the rest of the world ’s flight activity‚ the grand total is almost incalculable. In order to understand how airplanes fly‚ we must break down the parts of an airplane and understand the physics behind the airplanes most important components: the engine/propeller

The Industrial Revolution changed the world forever. It helped progress us forward to how things are ran today. It made work faster and more efficient. A thought process that we will have forever. Moving the textile business out from people’s homes and in to the factory was a big necessary step. While some aspects of a factory are different‚ the process that was used during the Industrial Revolution is the same. The industrial Revolution changed the way we fought our wars‚ interacted with other countries
