"I love Lucy chocolate Factory"

I thought this was very funny. It shows the advancement of machines that were created in the industrial revolution back in the 20's. The humor they used is somewhat simular to the humor we have today. Infact, that scene in "I love Lucy chocolate factory" was used in a nickelodeon show except with two teenage boys and sushi. (The show was drake and josh). This shows how pop culture has used a snippet of a video from the industrial revolution into present time for humor.

"The Charlie Chapmen modern times"

This video had no talking and was very direct and serious sounding. The music was very intense and everyone was acting in a serious manner. In this video it shows a lot of the industrial revolution such as all the machines, levers, and mechanical devices.

"Victorian Child"

Although this video was very mean and rude to victorian children back then, I thought this video was reallly funny. It compares the kids to a slave or worker that cleans people's chimmenys. this video used humor to compare how kids were forced to work in factories because most were unwanted by their families.

Fri, 04 May 2012 11:38:00 -0700 Revolutions activity quote responces http://kaceykook.posterous.com/revolutions-activity-quote-responces http://kaceykook.posterous.com/revolutions-activity-quote-responces

"Revolutionary moments attract the best and worst elements in a given society." -George Bernard Shaw

I do indeed agree with this quote. Many revolutions in history have lead to the best and worst elements of society. A good example of this is the French Revolution. It brought out the best in France's society, because once it was all over they were able to fall back into place and get things back to normal. From the revolution they knew how to avoid trouble from happening again. The French Revolution did bring out the worst of France's people too. It led to violence, murder, death, and many horrible things for France's society.

 

"Every revolution was a first thought in one mans mind" -Ralph Waldo Emerson

I do agree with this quote also. I think revolutions that have occured have once been a thought or idea of someones, but they didn't want to do anything about it, couldn't do anything about it, or were too afraid.

 

"Every generation does need a new revolution" -Thomas Jefferson

This quote I don't necessarly agree with, but part of me does. Its a little vague because it could mean any type of revolution. It depends what kind though.

Tue, 03 Apr 2012 23:26:00 -0700 Catherine the Great http://kaceykook.posterous.com/catherine-the-great http://kaceykook.posterous.com/catherine-the-great

Part I

What I learned from this documentary is that Catherine was very keen and sneeky. She was only using her "husband" to get the thrown and was very sneeky about the things she did, even if they were not allowed. She was a very intelligent and knew what she wanted. Everything was pretty self explanatory, but a few questions I have are; what ever happened to Catherine's children in the future? Did she actually marry potemkin? 

 

Part II

a. She was very devoted to her country and wanted everyone to be equal and have fair rights. She wanted to be liked by her people and seemed like a pretty nice lady.

b. She believed that in order for Russia to be united, there needed to be only one ruler that would recieve all of the power.

c. Even though she believed in having one ruler with all of the power, she still did not want to take away the rights of her people. She believed in having a dictator which respected the people of Russia's rights.

d. What Catherine means by " is the punishment of death really useful and necessary in a community for the preservation of peace and good order" is basically what it says. She questions why in a peaceful community should people be punished. If they are promoting peace and good order, having death penalties does not make a peaceful community more peaceful.

e.She believed that all laws that were made should be addressed by alll citizens and not just certain groups. She didn't think that punishing those who commited crimes would solve the problem, and that praising those who were honest would be good.

Mon, 05 Mar 2012 09:21:00 -0800 King Louis XIV Exploration http://kaceykook.posterous.com/king-louis-xiv-exploration http://kaceykook.posterous.com/king-louis-xiv-exploration

1. King Louis XIV Personalities

- Selfish: "He wished to reign by himself."

- Naive: "This vanity, this unmeasured and unreasonable love of admiration, was his ruin. His ministers, his generals, his mistresses, his courtiers, soon perceived his weakness. They praised himwith emulation and spoiled him. Praises, or to say truth, falttery, pleased him to such an extent, that the coarest that was recieved, the vilest even better relished. It was the sole means by which you could approach him."

-Spoiled: "He took credit to himself for instructing them; wished it to be thought that from his cabinet he commanded and directed all his armies. Naturally fond of trifles, he unceasingly occupied himself with the most petty details of his troops, his household, his mansions; would even instruct his cooks, who received, like novices, lessons they had known by heart for years."

-Proper: "Louis XIV was made for a brilliant Court. In the midst of other men, his figure, his courage, his grace, his beauty, his grand mien, even the tone of his voice and the majestic and natural charm of all his person, distinguished him till his death as the King Bee, and showed that if he had only been born a simple private gentleman, he would equally have excelled in fetes, pleasures, and gallantry, and would have had the greatest success in love."

-Good Memory: "He had an excellent memory; in this way, that if he saw a man who, twenty years before, perhaps, had in some manner offended him, he did not forget the man, though he might forget the offense."

 

2. After reading the content it seems that King Louis XIV had very high expectations, and when certain things or orders were not meeting his expectations he had very cruel punishments. They were so terrible that Vatel killed himself so he would deal with the punishments

 

3.  A main important step King Louis XIV was always being consulted before any decisions were made, this made the King have the final say in what needs to be done and change anything if he wanted. I think this is a very smart idea and I don't see any draw backs with this other than if the ruler were very bad and changed the rule to worsen the community. But, if the leader is a well rounded person who cares for what the community wants/needs, it would be a good thing to consult the ruler/president before the law is made.

When I watched this video I felt very sad. This video is focused more on the negatives about how human rights had been neglected in the past more than it has been now in the present. This video was very moving and really stood out to me, making me think about how the power of human rights has been abused in history and now.

I thought this video would be nice to post. It shows 30 different articles of which humans have the right to do.

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 18:01:00 -0800 Quote Responses http://kaceykook.posterous.com/quote-responses http://kaceykook.posterous.com/quote-responses

"To rule is easy, to govern difficult"-Johann von Gorthe

I agree with this quote because i think it is true! To be a ruler you could do absolutely anything to your community and it can be easy to rule, yet when to govern ideas have to be approved and shared with everyone appart of the governent. It is much more difficult other than simply making laws as you please when being a ruler.

"A state is better governed which has but few laws, and those laws are strictly observed"- Rene Descartes

I disagree with this quote because no matter how much the government can observe laws, there is always someone who wants to do bad and get away with something that could end up being worse. Which doesn't make the state better governed than another.

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 10:27:00 -0800 Utopia WarmUp http://kaceykook.posterous.com/96980969 http://kaceykook.posterous.com/96980969

A. If you could live anywhere in the world where would you live? Why? What about this place appeals to you?

If I could live anywhere in the world I would live in London/England. I absolutely love everything about London and would basically do anything to go back. it has the perfect amount of cityness and home-yness to it and there is a lot to do there. Cabs are easy to take and shops are easy to get to. London itself is a easy place to get around and has beautiful sights everywhere. Theres giant parks (such as Hyde Park) that are really pretty to walk around in, relax, or even nice to go for a jog in. Theres so much in London yet its driving distance to far away beaches that would be nice to visit every once in a while or other cities/towns outside of the city. 

B. Describe your perfect life: Who and what would you want with you? What would you do everyday? How would you make money? What kind of rules would you follow (or not)?

I would probably either be in or out of college and have a job that I am successful in doing that I love and am happy. (I don't know what I want to do yet). Hopefully whatever I will be doing will make me a good amount of money for my needs and I'll probably live by myself or with a roomate/friend. If I were to live in London my family probably wouldn't live with me there so I'd just visit them occasionally and they would visit me during breaks and such.

Tue, 24 Jan 2012 14:17:00 -0800 Online Textbook Chapter 16 http://kaceykook.posterous.com/online-textbook-chapter-16 http://kaceykook.posterous.com/online-textbook-chapter-16 Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE

Section I (pp. 467-475)

Questions:

1. How did advances in technology spur exploration?

In the year of the exploration advances in technology included the creation of the compass, the astrolabe, and the craftsmanship of ships. This helped explores make traveling across the world much easier and made it easier to get to their destination faster.

2. What goal did the English, French, and Dutch explorers share with the Spanish and Portuguese, and how was their approach in the Americas different?

They all wanted to find a route to Asia, but both approached their paths differently. The Portuguese and wanted to find a water route around Africa to India. While the English, Dutch, and French explorers took the Northwest Passage, which lead them around the northern reaches of North America. By going through the Northwest Passage, they hoped that they would find a way to get to Asia, but never did.

3. Support the statement "The Age of Exploration could not have occurred without the Renaissance"

Yes this statement is very true. During the Renaissance, it is said that a spirit of discovery awakened in Europe. In the late 1400’s and 1500’s it was said that spirit is what lead the Europeans on the “voyages of discovery” which they found new lands and new routes to places of the known.

 

Section 2 (pp. 476-481)

4. Describe ways in which the Spanish and Portguese colonies in the Americas were similar. How were they different?

They both created empires in the Americas. They were both mercantilistic nations attempting to subjugate to acquirer raw materials. The Portuguese and the Spanish both used native Americans, and later African slaves to work on their farms. They both fought over what lands and parts of the world they wanted and later had divisions split up.

5. Compare and contrast the ways in which the French, Dutch, and English related to Native Americans.

Unlike the Spanish and Portuguese; the French, Dutch, and English did not enslave Native Americans. In fact, they formed allies with them and exchanged supplies and culture.

6. How did the French and Indian War (Seven Years War) shape History?

IT WAS THE WAR THAT MADE AMERICA by ending salutary neglect and declaring the proclamation of 1763.

 

Section 3 (pp. 482-487)

7. Why were colonies so important under the principles of mercantilism?

By the exchanging of materials and supplies from merchants all around the world, mercantilism provided raw materials for the mother country (Brittan) which created a positive balance of trade.

8. How did the quest for a favorable trade balance push the drive to establish colonies, and how did this drive usher in capitalism?  

When the colonies received the raw materials from outer merchants, they used those materials to create new products to resell and make profit out of.

 

Section 4 (pp. 488-494)

1a. He said that in order to conquer they must make friends/form allies with the natives

1b. To form peace between them so they would not be enemies.

2a. Chills, excessive coughing, all over bumps on the body, fatigue.

2b. The Aztecs because he had made many friends with Aztecs, and probably felt bad for their illnesses knowing that it was spread by the Spanish and explores.

3a. Because even though they work for the Christians, they didn’t want them to be interpreted as slaves. Since they were doing the work for the Christians and making profit for Spain, they felt as if treating them with respect and letting them live with the Christians would show them that they aren’t being treated poorly and that they appreciate their work.

3b. Yes because they seemed to have been true to their word and not let down the monarch.

4a. Farming, and war craft has changed dramatically in American society. Natives before planted by hand and used spears and archers’ when fighting, and now has changed to guns, metal weapons and machines to help us do the planting.

4b. The creation of new colonies, spreading of crops and animals.

Wed, 18 Jan 2012 15:39:00 -0800 Online Textbook Chapter 15 sections 2-4 questions http://kaceykook.posterous.com/online-textbook-chapter-15-sections-2-4-quest http://kaceykook.posterous.com/online-textbook-chapter-15-sections-2-4-quest

Pg. 447 Section assessment (#1a, 1b,2a,3b)

1a. Trade, Scholars and Artists, and the development of printing.

1b. The printing press because it was like a climax to the renaissance. Once it was invented, scholars and writers had a whole new way of having things printed out and typed instead of handwritten. Because of that huge acomplishment it was quickly spread around the world and was a base to the renaissance's ideas.

2a. Christian humanism is to be truly human to the value that God has placed on all human life. Things that are important to humans such as science, art, literature, etc.

3b. The artists took the lead to experimenting with different mediums of art such as genres or scenerys

Pg. 448 Sonnets (#1 and 2)

1. Petarch's sonnet clearly describes heartbreak of a woman he loved very much. It seems like he loved the girl, but she didn't love him back or he could never have her.

2. I found this sonnet a little bit hard to understand, but I think Shakespeares  idea of love is that love is difficult and wanders. Meaning that one's heart is never full devoted to someone and has many personalities.

Pg. 454 Section Assessment (#1a,1b, 2b,4a)

1a. Abuse of power, their financial corruption, and immorality

1b. Many people started to question the power of the church which caused a lot of tension between the catholics and their church. Some men such as John Calvin and Martin Luther had created their own opinions of the church which people soon began to believe in also.

2b. He insisted that God's grace could not be worn by good works and faith alone was needed. He also insisted that Christian individuals should be their own "interpreters of scripture". He strongly believed that Christian practices should only come from the bible itself and he himself translated the bible into Germany. By doing this he enabled many people to read the bible.

4a. Because when King Henry asks the pope to annul his marriage, the pope refused. This aggrivated Henry very much and he breaks from the Catholic church.


Pg. 460 Section Assessment (#4 - the chart)

4. Causes: Martin Luther posts 95 theses, clergy was poorly educated, humanists beliefs questions the church's athority.

Characteristics: as wars began fear spread among people, many people became doubtful of what to believe.

Effects: Church leaders reformed the Catholic Church, Religious conflicts began to spread across europe, anti semitisim increased.


Pg. 461 (#2)

2. They both changed the world dramaticly. They both are a newer uprade to what was used before they were invented and both impacted technology in a great way. For example before the printing press books were more expensive and handwritten. But once the printing press was invented books were able to be typed and printed, and became cheaper. With the internet, way back then people found out news from newspapers and socially kept in touch with one another by writting letters. Now, since the internet revolution, new sorts of news are posted on the internet and people are able to keep in touch with via email, facebook, skype, etc.

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 22:45:00 -0800 Da Vinci assignment http://kaceykook.posterous.com/da-vinci-assignment http://kaceykook.posterous.com/da-vinci-assignment

1. Choose two quotes from Da Vinci and comment on why you like them, agree, or disagree with them. Try to provide examples from your own life.

quote #1: "Art is never finished, only abandoned" ~ I particularly find this quote interesting. What I think it means is that no matter how hard you may try your best at a piece of art your making, there is always something that can be added to make it better. In art, people have the oprrotunity to do anything they want. Its the artist's opprotunity to share and express his/her's emotions on the canvas or piece. And that no matter how finished or content someone may feel about their work, there is always room for more.

quote #2: "He who loves practice without theory is like the sailor who boards ship without a rudder and compass and never knows where he may cast."~ This quote makes me think of patience and comitment. If you dont have an open mind when learning and practicing a certain skill, there is no point at all in doing it. If you don't want to learn the basics, there is no way of going forward. But if you are commited and patient in the process, you will strive successfully.

2. Then choose 3 direct quotes from Vasari's writings and compare/contrast to what you recall from the film.

quote #1: "There was very great disdain between Michelangelo Buonarroti and him"

In he movie, this was shown a few times. When Leonardo started getting older, a new young artist (Michelangelo) came into Florence. Leonardo had become very jealous of him, which started the rivalry between the two of them. I recall seeing a lot of tension between Leonardo and Michelangelo, and them both fireing insults at eachother all the time.

quote #2: "that he left the head of Christ unfinished, not believing that he was able to give it that divine air which is essential to the image of Christ."

This was shown that Leonardo was a huge perfectionist and felt that he was never good enough for god. this often got into his head which is why so many of his pieces from back then are still not finished.

quote #3: "And in this work of Leonardo's there was a smile so pleasing, that it was a thing more divine than human to behold; and it was held to be something marvellous, since the reality was not more alive"

This quote is specifically talking about the Mona Lisa. Vasari talks about how magnificant Leonardo was and how he was able to portray the striking portrait with many different techniques that is hard to find in art today. It refers to how great of an artist he was, and that little details to the canvas can make it so much bolder.

3. Mona Lisa in Modern world, which things appeal to you most?

 What I liked the most was the Mona Lisa toast, the cookie jar, and  the swimsuit...which was pretty funny.

4. Should great works of art be protected from commercial use and ridicule? Why or why not? Does an advertisement ridicule a work of art when that work is used to sell, say, suntan lotion? Do you think Leonardo would try to keep other artists from making fun of the Mona Lisa or from copying her? Should all works be free to be used as a source material for the creation of new works?

I think in ways yes and no. It is in someways can be a fun thing to joke about, or can be used in a clever way (such as that birth of venus advertisment for a hotel). I don't think it is okay though for artists to use the exact piece of art work to branch off for their own ideas. In other words, if you didn't come up with it yourself, dont exactly copy from someone else. But in some occasions its okay if it may be simular.

Tue, 01 Nov 2011 22:59:00 -0700 Pulitzer Prize Photography Reflection http://kaceykook.posterous.com/pulitzer-prize-photography-reflection http://kaceykook.posterous.com/pulitzer-prize-photography-reflection

When I looked through the past winners of the Pulitzer Prize Photography, Deanne Fitzmaurice, who won the 2005 Pulitzer Prize had the most interesting and touching photos. Her album was about a 9 year old Iraqi boy named Saleh, who was nearly killed by an explotion in Iraq. I felt Deanne did an excellent job capturing the photos, which showed so emotion. Every picture made me want to look at the following because they were all so interesting. She did a great job telling Saleh's story through her photography. Her captions helped me understand what was going on also. What made me remember this story most was the growth of Saleh after his serious accident. The photos showed the hope for him, by he and his father moving to the U.S and being re-united with his mother and siblings nearly a year after his recovery. Even though he was before self conscious about his scars, eventually grew comfertable with himself with the help of making friends at his new school, and being reunited with his family.

Lionheart06
This photo really stood out to me. The caption stated  "Though usually upbeat, Saleh was sensitive about his appearance. One afternoon, when he saw other children staring at him, Saleh became angry and upset. Nurses sought to soothe him by taping a felt tip pen to this arm so he could draw pictures. Saleh drew an airplane dropping bombs".His anger and frustration made him think of the bombing he had experienced back in Iraq, which is what he drew for pictures.

Tue, 01 Nov 2011 22:10:00 -0700 Photo Tampering Reflection http://kaceykook.posterous.com/photo-tampering-reflection http://kaceykook.posterous.com/photo-tampering-reflection

Are there some instances where it should be OK and others when it should not be allowed (explain)? 

I don't have an exact opinion about whether or not photo tampering should be alowed. I do think though that it is not necessary to add bad symbolism or lies into photos. Photography captures the raw truth in photos, and it shouldn't be messed around with lies. Photo tampering can be okay to use sometimes, but as long as it doesn't insult or change the whole meaning of the picture in a bad way.

What effects, do you think, digital manipulation of photos has on our society?

It has alowed us to edit pictures so they have different effects on what the photo is trying to say. Digital manipulation has effected many different indistries such as modeling/photoshoots and all around photography, expecially when it is being put on display infront of thousands of people. (such as magazines, internet, posters, or presentations.)
