Roman Empire: The Greatest Empire

Roman Empire: The Greatest Empire

This work was carried out within the scope of History A, in compensation for the missing material. We write about the end of the greatest empire ever, the Roman, an ironic and tragic end for the people announcing tragedies. And also the coming of the Suevi, a Nordic people who occupied northern Spain and Portugal during the barbarian invasions of the 3rd century AD. Ç.

A Holiday Tree or a Christmas Tree?

A Holiday Tree or a Christmas Tree?

Here we go again. To call a Christmas tree or not to call it a Christmas tree. It is a Christmas Tree for Christ's sake, pardon the pun. I, for one, a Muslim, am not offended by the presence of a beautifully decorated tree adorning homes stores and offices. It's rather pleasant to look at, to say nothing of the goodies underneath it.

Utopia Artistic Dimension

Utopia Artistic Dimension

"I am only interested by the diverging conscience because only in it we can find utopic energies." Harald Szeeman Utopia experimented as pure experience, as basic parallel research, free from the need to be efficient, links that which is possible to the impossible through the practice of calculations, whether parallel or not, whose poetical result allows the meeting of science and art as an "interconnection of fields of knowledge."

War Poets Collection: Arras and Captain Satan

War Poets Collection: Arras and Captain Satan

About the year 1640, James Howell, an English traveller spoke of "the Netherlands" as "the cockpit of Christendom." Some one suspecting him of cynicism has altered the phrase to "the cockpit of Europe." Howell was not, of course, referring to the Dutch Netherlands, for within its frontiers comparatively few battles have been fought, but to the Low Countries, comprising what is now Belgian Flanders and the old French province of Artois.

Advantages of Mother Tongue in Education

Advantages of Mother Tongue in Education

By learning their mother tongues, our students gain not just linguistic skills but access to the deep rivers of culture and values that we inherit. Each language is filled with concepts, rules and ways of finding meaning that reflect a distinct cultural outlook, a distinct way of looking at life. By requiring students to study their mother tongues, we retain and strengthen our identity as an Asian society, as well as our special character not just as an Asian society but a multicultural society.

World Wide Web: Short History

World Wide Web: Short History

The Internet can be traced back to the invention of computers and networking in the 1950s. In the early 1960s the Department of Defense finalized the first Computer Network, ARPANET. While working with ARPANET, Tim Berners-Lee created the World Wide Web to harness the Internet and connect his hypertext documents together. ARPANET was decommissioned in 1990 but limited private connections to the Internet in several larger cities by the late 1980s were growing and when NSFNET was decommissioned in 1995, they removed the last restrictions to public use of the Internet, paving the way to a commercially viable superhighway.

GALA Hispanic Theater History

GALA Hispanic Theater History

2005 was a banner year for GALA as it moved into its long-awaited home at the Tivoli and became a permanent national Hispanic theater. 2006 marks GALA’s 30th year in existence as it celebrates its transition from Act One, as a groundbreaking yet somewhat nomadic theater, to Act Two, as a national center for Latino performing arts.
