... developed adolescent boy whose arms appeared weak due to the lack of muscles. After defeating Goliath, whose head lies at David's feet, he rests his sword by his side, almost to heavy to handle. It seems almost impossible that a young boy like David could have accomplished such a task. David himself seems skeptical of his deed as he glances down towards his body. Apparently, David's intellect, faith and courage made up for his lack of build (Fichner-Rathus 331-332). Verrocchio, who also designed a sculpture of David, was the most important and imaginative sculptor of the mid-fifteenth century. This figure of the yo ...

... local governments and a new social structure between whites and blacks. During the war Lincoln had expanded his presidency. With his power he hoped to set up loyal governments in the Southern states that were under Union control. Lincoln appointed new temporary governors and instructed each to call a convention to create a new state government. He did this as soon as a group of the state’s citizen totaling 10 percent of the voters in the 1860 presidential election had signed oaths of loyalty to the Union. Under this plan new governments were formed in Louisiana, Tennessee and Arkansas, but the Congress refuse ...

... simply existing, until he made decisive choice about his own future. That is the way to achieve dignity as a human being. Existentialists felt that adopting a social or political cause was one way of giving purpose to a life. Sartre is well known for the "Theatre engage" or Theatre 'committed', which is supposedly committed to social and/or political action. One of the major playwrights during this period was Jean-Paul Sartre. Sartre had been imprisoned in Germany in 1940 but managed to escape, and become one of the leaders of the Existential movement.

... added an extra finger on each hand and the left side of the face, (that wouldn’t normally be seen from this profile). Not unlike Callahan Picasso here is illustrating that he knows a part of this woman that can only be seen through his eyes, subsequently he is showing us this view.

... him famous. Ruth hit 29 home runs in 1919 with the Boston Red Sox. At the time it was the Major League record (Babe Ruth Museum 2). The next year (1920), as a member of the New York Yankees, he outdid himself as he hit an astonishing 54 home runs (Creamer 219). The pattern continued as he hit 59 home runs in 1921 (Creamer 239). His pace slowed down a little for the next few years, but his pace picked up again. In 1927 he would hit his famous 60 home runs which was a record at the time and would last until 1961 when it was broken by fellow Yankee Roger Maris. He also made the first Major League Baseball All- ...

... Programming, such as music videos, feeds our imaginations about the musicians' lavish lifestyle. An example of feeding our imaginations to a better lifestyle would be to examine music videos that contain live footage of concerts with a large mount of fans in attendance. A fairly mainstream hardcore act like Korn, for instance, contains footage in their video from a concert that displays literally thousands of fans in attendance. Musician hopefuls see the mass attention and want very badly to be appreciated in the same way. In addition to this, interviews on television stations like MTV relay opinions of t ...

... photographer for the Newport Beach Police Department. "The bottom line for our community is that we will solve cases faster, apprehend suspects quicker and give our department more time to devote to noninvestigative police services."Reis, a civilian photographer who heads the police photography operation, first became interested in digital photography two years ago.

... beaten or killed if you did not believe in the Puritan religion and remained in Puritan "Utopia" -- the exact situation which they had fled from England. Later, it would take the gathering of American thinkers to deduce what liberties were guaranteed and which were not, to avoid mistakes made by puritans and others in history. The Forefathers of the United States conjured up the Bill of Rights which illustrated which rights were endowed to the people of the United States. They adopted the Bill of rights, which was drafted for political motivations, and it evolved into a document which shelters American people's civi ...
