The church and Christian beliefs had a very large impact on the Puritan religion and lifestyle. According to discovery education, “Church was the cornerstone of the mainly Puritan society of the 17th century.”( Douglas 4). Puritan laws were intensively rigid and people in society were expected to follow a moral strict code. And because of Puritans and their strict moral codes, any act that was considered to go against this code was considered a sin and deserved to be punished. In Puritan theology, God h...
Before the 1990’s, if people want to listen to music, they just visit a music store and pick up a CD and then put it into a stereo equipment. However, the development of MP3 file format gradually changed the way people listen to music. This format lets everyone download music easily and it can be converted to CD as well. But, there is still a problem: searching MP3 files on the internet is maddening and people seldom can find the music they want. Therefore, the birth of Napster solved this problem, creating a virtual music community in which music fans could use the Web as a “swap meet” for music files. More importantly, Napster is easy to use and it’s free, which expands the range of audience in age. Bandwidth also contributed to Napster’s success. The greater the bandwidth, the faster the file can be transferred. So, Napster really changed the way people listen to music, discover music and interact with music.
C] This file reflects the points of view of most Puritans who may call upon God for everything. They even commended God after an attack on an Indian town. [Doc. D] By looking at a town map of Puritan New England, it can be seen that the entire town revolves around the church. [Doc. B] There is a broad emphasis set on communitarianism instead of individuality. There was a meetinghouse set up with the ultimate objective of facilitated exertion and "democratic" fundamental administration. In a Puritan town, Political parts must be held by the people who had open changes and advanced toward winding up plainly "sacred individuals." Although there were town social affairs, they were by no means whatsoever, dominant part control; power was held by male property holders who were church people. This thought about a Puritan religious government over the long haul incited discontent. In John Cotton's "Control of Government" written in 1655 [Doc. H] he underlines that the vitality of government must be compelled. Close by a call for political adaptability, Roger William's "A Plea for Religious

Descartes’s approach to understanding the difference between mind and matter initially began by him doubting all truths which he had grown up believing to be true. He believed that if anything he held to be true was ever deceiving, he would reject its reliability all together. This extreme doubt resulted in Descartes
The first leader of the Puritans ,John Winthrop, main purpose was to create a “city upon the hill”, which in terms is meant as a religious statement. The Puritans wanted to make the Anglican Church pure and wanted people to follow their ideas and values. They wanted to build a religion based colony.The puritans were known as the congregationalists, they wanted to run the church and have the power to hire and fire the preacher and have the power of taxes. They believed man was born sinful. Puritans believed in a concept called , Doctrine of the elect, which consisted of the Puritans believing that they were preselected for heaven or hell. The Puritans believed their ideas and values would influence the community and positively affect the
One of the ways in which Descartes attempts to prove that the mind is distinct from the body is through his claim that the mind occupies no physical space and is an entity with which people think, while the body is a physical entity and cannot serve as a mechanism for thought. [1]

To begin, typical Puritan society during the 17th century was “painfully stern and somber; it was founded on the strictest, unmollified Calvinism,” (Puritan…). In other words, their society was very restricted and confined to religion. Civil law also played a role in the citizens’ business and social relations. Law impacted how they dressed, their religious affairs, and even their family relations. In terms of education, Puritans prospered. In fact, in Massachusetts, they required every township of fifty families to employ a teacher to educate the children. Their government was also structured upon religion because religion served as their only method of life. In terms of gender roles, the men were responsible for earning bread for...
Polyphonic is operating on a “shoestring budget” of $150,000. The company is not helped by initial discussions about HSS with potential customers, which have resulted in cold receptions, at best, about the product’s potential application to the music processes despite its multiple strengths.
When it comes to recording in a modern day environment DAW’s (digital audio workstation) are an essential piece of equipment if professional standard results are desired. Although DAW’s are considered a modern technological advancement the first attempt at a DAW was in 1977 and it came from Dr. Tom Stockham’s Soundstream (See references for full description) digital system. It had very powerful editing capabilities and for its time a very advanced crossfader but was still primitive compared to today’s standard. At this moment there are 100’s of DAW’s on the market but arguably there some obvious leaders. Avid’s Pro Tools has been the go to DAW for any professional studio for the past 20 years and although there have been rumors of Avid going out of business and the features in Pro Tools becoming dated, Pro Tools is still a viable option for studios worldwide. Logic Pro has risen to the fore-front of the industry in recent years due to its easy to use interface that is possible of producing professional results. Ableton Live strays away from a hardware instrument music environment to cater for electronic music users. Audio to MIDI is a main focus along with the critically acclaimed Max for Live used for live performances by many current EDM artists. Each individual DAW has its own pros and cons and comparing these can highlight which DAW is the best for what task.
In the ad the homosexual male couple not depict any of the stereotypical gay attributes, besides being overly stylish. The stylishness of their clothing could be ascribed to the fact that the advertisement is in the end for JCPenney’s clothes. In fact, the ad argues against the stereotype of homosexual couples being unfit parents. One of the main arguments made by people who do not want homosexuals to adopt is that the child will not be able to adjust to the change in family structure and will develop psychological problems. There is no research for the basis of their argument and there is even some research refuting their ideas. In the ad it is plain to see that the children are happy and their needs are well met in the ad. This new parenting practice is based on loving parents and happy children. This ad aims towards the hope that society will not have interest in the constitution of a family terms of gender, race, and sexual orientation, but instead have an interest in what really matters to the family’s well-being: happiness, friendship, love, and
MP3 technology, short for MPEG-1 Layer 3, first appeared on the Internet in the late 1990’s, and as time passed users could retrieve the musical works of artists or groups by accessing a website or file-sharing utility. This not only gave exposure to these musicians, but it also gave smaller, less known artists chances at exposure. Mp3.com began some years later, a website initiated for the soul purpose of allowing local musicians with recorded albums or demos to publish their works to the mainstream Internet, and gained much popularity as MP3 became more eminent. Then MP3s became a national sensation with the release of Napster, a program that allowed users to trade songs with other users across an Internet network. A political storm approached as more and more MP3 users collected songs on their computers and purportedly stopped buying albums.
Some Puritans of this time did not like the sound of their ever nearing future and believed it was not in god’s will for these things to happen. Therefore they grouped together in order to make a new, pure model society in the area of New England in America. The Puritans simply did not agree to what was happening to their religion in their homeland so they set off for a fresh start.
