Andreas Gursky
Andreas Gursky was born in Leipzig and studied in Essen and later
Düsseldorf. As winner of the Citibank Private Bank Photography Prize in 1998, Gursky has established himself as one of the leading photographers of his time. He generally photographs landscapes in large colour format - the images are of urban landscapes (the Hong
Kong Stock Exchange) both interior and exterior.
German artist Andreas Gursky is best known for his billboard-size photographs that inhabit a space between painting and photography, landscape and human concern, animate and inanimate. He often places his large-format camera at a high-angled distance from his subject, creating images that suggest mapping stills from outer space or cyber-technology. Sometimes computer manipulated, his images of corporate architecture, environmental contemplations such as pebbly earth, and mass groups of people freeze-framed mid-motion often reference the geometric forms of Minimalist Art and the "allover" quality of a Jackson Pollock painting. Our eyes dance across his dense, often slightly abstracted images, which display strong formal elements as they blend relationships between nature, culture, and technology. He is particularly concerned with capturing motion and creating a moment of stillness in that space. His work is "as much akin to the physics of motion as it is to the philosophy of convergence." Let's Entertain features a large photograph of a mass of youthful partygoers titled May Day III. Thi...
The American artist Fred Tomaselli arranges pills, leaves, insects and cutouts of animals and body parts to create his pieces of art. His incorporation of items are arranged to suggest a level of perception along with a heightened visual experience. This gives me, the viewer, a sense of Energy. The perception of color that Fred uses gives a gravitating feel. If you take a look at the heart of this piece you can instantly visualize the different items Fred incorporates into the piece.
Formula feeding is able to be more flexible of a schedule for the baby and is easy to share the responsibility of feeding between parents and the caregivers. Formula though does not have antibodies passed through the milk. Formula also causes babies to get gassier and can cause constipation. A fussy baby is not a happy baby, but with formula feeding you can see and know how much your little one has ate and know if that is their problem or not. Formula is also full of corn syrup and sugar. As adults we are told if we can not pronounce it then do not eat it. Formula has thousands of different ingredients that most of us have not even heard of. Some of their ingredients include, monophosphate, crypthecodinium cohnii oil, disodium uridine -5’ monophosphate, nucleotides and much more. Studies do show that formula takes longer to digest, meaning that it does satisfy your little one longer unlike breast milk. U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates formula companies to ensure they provide all the necessary nutrients in their
...nition, God is perfectly good, omniscient and omnipotent, then it should be reflective on religions and there should only be one. If god is omnipotent, then he is capable of generating a religion in which everyone can believe in universally and exclusively. If I have to accept the idea that the religions that exist are merely something created to satisfy our human perceptions then I prefer not to believe in a God at all. Religions should not be something in which we question its validity and the practice of it. Most, if not, all major religions have too many contradictions for my personal taste. Although my parents remain Catholics who believe that their religion is superior to the other religions, I respect their views. I on the other hand, select to rely on and trust the moral behaviors of people as a way to live by and be the most ethical person I can be.
Alexander Hamilton is among a group of men extolled as the founders of America. These framers, as they are best known, tend to be grouped, by modern Americans, into a single, homogeneous aggregate of people, with identical beliefs, political tactics, and goals.
Constantly having a baby tug and pull at your nipple throughout the day may not be the most comfortable feeling a mother would look forward to. The soreness and difficulty makes new mothers ponder over the decision to use infant formula instead of breastfeeding. With thoughts of convenience and comfort, mothers tend to forgo the nutrients in breastmilk and take on formulas instead. Using infant formula is a personal choice a mother is willing to make; however, studies have shown the greater benefits in breast milk for the child, the mother, and the family.
Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” George Schuyler was a journalist who didn’t fear writing about controversy; he was a man who embraced it. Schuyler was known to give a fresh and sincere view on topics during a time when freedom of speech was most vulnerable. Although many embraced his conservative outlook on topics, his peers often scrutinized him for this very same trait. On March 18 1944, Schuyler wrote an article in the Pittsburgh Courier condemning the government for pressing charges on Lawrence Dennis and others for violating the Smith Act of 1940. This page long editorial helped arouse a nationwide debate as to whether or not the government was acting within its rights when indicting individuals who expressed their ideas and opinions about Communism and/or Fascism. Articles from the New York Times, the Washington Post, and a plethora of renowned journals continued this debate for decades to come.
There are so many more perks to breastfeeding as opposed to formula feeding. Mothers are not educated enough prior to giving birth and they sometimes feel it is just easier to formula feed. A lot of hospitals are quick to just give a newborn a formula bottle if a mother is unsure how she wants to feed or if she is afraid to breastfeed just because she is unsure how. I think more mothers would

Nutrients in breast milk are better for your baby than nutrients in infant formula. Breast milk is uniquely designed for your baby’s needs.
Breastfeeding is a highly debated topic amongst mothers across the world. Every mother has the choice to breastfeed or bottle fed their infant. Although everyone is entitled to their own opinion and choice, it is scientifically proven that breast milk is more beneficial for the infant’s health and development and the mother. Breast milk contains extremely beneficial vitamins and nutrients and also has the ability to change according to the infant’s growth and development. Formula companies try to mock breast milk to the best they can, although it cannot be completely composed the same. “Breastfeeding offers immunological and allergy protection to the infant, is economical and convenient as it is always fresh and the right temperature, and provides a great opportunity for the mother and infant to bond” (p. 1052, Potter & Perry, 2011). Research has proven that breast milk is the most
David Berkowitz was one of the most feared killers in New York City in the 1970's. His crimes caused the death of six people, and the injuries to seven others. His crimes became legendary because of the bizarre content in the letters that he wrote to the police and the media and his reasons for committing the attacks. David Berkowitz, better known as Son of Sam, is a man with a troubled childhood and upbringing. From his many “Parental Figures” to believing that dogs were telling him to kill. During his reign of killing the police felt the pressure to catch David. "Operation Omega" was formed, which was comprised of over 200 detectives – all working on finding the Son of Sam before he killed again. He is currently serving a 365 year sentence at the Sullivan Correctional Facility in Fallsburg, New York, and became eligible for parole in 2002.
...he mothers who are capable to do so should at least try it for the baby’s well-being. Breast-feeding benefits the mother and child in many ways such as weight loss for the mother and the right supply of nutrients for the child. The mother can also reduce the likelihood of her developing cancer and diabetes. The child can gain a better immune system and will do better in academics. It creates a loving and supportive bond between the mother and child. Immune system, brain function, socialization, and overall long-term health is stabilized throughout the breast-feeding period (Godfrey 1307). Many organizations promote breastfeeding for atleast the first six months of the baby’s life and many studies show the increase in brain development and skills that breast-fed babies develop and formula fed babies lack. All mothers should breast-feed if she is capable of doing so.
“Breastmilk contains omega 3 fatty acids, these are needed for the growth and development of the baby's brains” (Byrnes). Some mothers who breastfeed may worry if their baby is getting enough milk. Those mothers are told if the baby is gaining weight, then the baby is getting enough milk. Breastfeeding may be painful for the first few days after giving birth, but the first few days, the milk that comes out, is the most important for the baby. The amount of fat the baby gets is based on how long the mother nurses. Proteins in breast milk make breastmilk easier to digest than formula. Sugars in the breast milk provide energy for the baby. The National Immunization Survey conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2005, revealed that 72% of American babies were breastfed at birth and 39% were still breastfed at six months
Families headed by gay and lesbian parents are just as diverse as families led by heterosexual couples (Thompson 36). The only difference in these families is there are two mothers or two fathers. They are seen as “unnatural” by most conservatives and religious organizations and their affiliates (Gateway Child Wellfare Information). The media usually portrays same-sex couples as “white, middle-class, two-parent families who have been together for many years. In actuality, these families are a small percent of the larger LGBTQ family community”. Because of the cultural and societal views of what makes an “ideal family” in the United States as “one mother, one father, and two children,” it is difficult for others to accept those that have two mothers or two fathers. These families are usually started by one parent who “came out” as lesbian or gay after divorcing a husband or wife. Additionally, blended families, which consist of one parent who remarried and the step-parent adopted the child or children that way, through artificial insemination and surrogacy, and there are couples who adopt children from the foster care system and adoption agencies (Thompso...
The debate between breast feeding vs formula feeding has been an active argument since 1867, when it was invented by Henri Nestle. Researches and tests have been done to see whether or not breast milk is better for the child. After looking at research breast feeding is the best way to go. For many reasons not only for the baby but the mother too.
