...The Hays Code How Did it Cause the Movie, A Streetcar Named Desire, to be Changed From the Play Abstract This paper will address changes from the play, A Streetcar Named Desire, that were made in the production of the movie due to the regulations of the Hays Code. Specific changes will be discussed. The conclusion of the paper will address if the changes still allowed the movie to effectively convey the original theme of the play. The Hays Code How Did it Cause the Movie, A Streetcar Named Desire, to be Changed From the Play In the early 1900’s, movie producers began shocking audiences by portraying themes that were socially unacceptable to discuss in public at that time. Films of this era were not censored, but state and local boards made the determination of whether a film could be shown or not. If they deemed a film as “inappropriate”, they simply banned it. The film The Birth of a Nation was a catalyst to changes in this. This film was banned in the state of Ohio. The company that handled the distribution of this film sued the state claiming it was a violation of the due process clause and the First Amendment. This suit went to the United States Supreme Court as the case Mutual Film Corporation v. Industrial Commission of Ohio (1915). In simple terms, the court ruled that films did not carry the same protections as books and other types of speech. (The Hays Code) This led to the creation of The Production Code of 1930, by Will H. Hays. This code became known...

...the farm. Rising early in the damp morning, I tried to get outside and start my daily chores before the inevitable heat struck the air. Breathing the crisp, morning air, winding through the maze of wagging tails and drooling mouths toward the sliding barn door, passed through a sense of importance in my life. At the gates, anxious to get their breakfast after a long, cool night in the fields, the impatient horses pawed and neighed, telling me to hurry my step. The beautiful, bay quarter horse, Impressive, was always at the head of the pack. King of the group, he was also the trusty, old horse that I knew and loved. Unlatching the gate, I allow Impressive to walk through on his own accord and trot off to his stall, awaiting the grain and hay he knows will soon come. The rest of the pack is brought in one by one and placed safely into their spacious, clean and, for the meantime, cool stalls. Perfect, Taffy, Special, Max, Arbitrator, Melvin, Rupert, and more, all having their own turn, all knowing their place in the well-established pecking order. Feeding time is always filled with commotion and seemingly unending, impatient screams. The average outsider would have guessed that the fat, robust horses hadn't been fed in weeks. Slowly, the ruckus inside the old horse barn quiets and the only sounds are the slurping of water in between the low rumble of the horses munching their...

...English 101 October 1, 2012 The Woods The tops of the trees were visible from my childhood home, yet they seemed so far away. A trio of neighborhood pre-teen boys, including me, would frequently make the trek to the woods to quench our thirst for adventure. No matter our agenda for the day, the woods would always accommodate. We would start our journey by walking across a perpetually soggy horse pasture, dodging land mines left by the horses. The smells of fresh cut hay and horse manure followed in our wake. Our first stop in the woods was always the stream that ran the entire length. With a running start, a young boy could almost jump the width of the stream, landing a few feet short on the opposite bank. We would descend the bank and hop from rock to rock, trying to keep our tennis shoes dry. When that failed, we trod down the center of the stream, lifting up flat rocks to uncover unsuspecting crayfish. We did not know that people actually ate these peculiar looking creatures. In the winter, we would compete to see who could stand on the ice of the frozen stream the longest. The stream would always win, as the ice gave way with a resounding crack. We walked home with heavy feet, dragging rock-hard pant legs frozen up to the knees. Older kids rode their motorcycles in the woods and adjacent field, as the high-pitched engine whine and smells of two cycle oil mixed with gasoline filled the air. Eventually, my neighborhood trio had motorcycles of our own, and our spinning...

...Orchard grass: tall growing, high yielding bunch grass attains more summer growth than other grasses with an intensive system of cutting mgmt.. It persists well with alfalfa. Early maturing varieties are suitable for pure hay or silage, or with legumes for pasture. DO NOT use in mixtures with legumes for hay or silage. Medium/late maturing varieties do well when combined with legumes for hay, silage, or pasture.. Later maturing varieties are best to grow with alfalfa. Common orchard grass is NOT a variety, its maturity unknown but it generally heads earlier than named varieties. It is for general use, but should not be mixed with legumes for hay or silage. Orchardgrass should not be seeded with other grasses because of differences in maturity and palatability. Table 2. Seeding rates for timothy and a single legume in mixture. Species lb/A Timothy 2–6 with any one of these legume Alfalfa 8–10 Birdsfoot trefoil 6–8 Red clover 6–8 White clover 2–4 Potomac is an early maturing variety (early May), Dawn and Rancho are medium-maturing varieties (mid-to late-May), and Pennlate is a late-maturing variety (late May to early June). When seeding an orchardgrass-legume mixture, the two should mature at about the same time. This will enable harvesting of both species at proper developmental stages and improve the potential of harvesting top quality forage. However, because it becomes coarse and less palatable as it matures, it is best suited for pastures. The rapid decline...

...Lincoln University Literature review Question: Discuss the potential contribution that chicory could make to New Zealand farming systems Title: Chicory’s (Cichorium intybus) agronomic principles, contribution to farming and the associated limitations- an analysis Summary Chicory (Cichorium intybus) is an increasingly popular crop that is excellent in providing high quality feed and high mineral content to grazing animals. Chicory is fast to establish and competitive for its resources given the right conditions, thus has high yields that occur in autumn, spring and summer. Yields expected, range from 8- 10t/ ha which consist of green leaf tissue which is valuable to New Zealand farms. The aim of the report is to find out the potential contribution of chicory to New Zealand farms by its agronomic principles, main advantages and the associated limitations. The literature covered in the findings is from Australian and New Zealand journals and websites, majority being by New Zealand researchers. Findings suggest that chicory is beneficial to New Zealand system under the right conditions following certain guidelines and recommendations. Deer and lambs can do better on chicory rather than the traditional ryegrass (table 1). Other findings suggest that climate change will have an impact on plant growth in chicory. Introduction Chicory is classed as a forage crop that belongs to the Asteracea family. It is commonly used as a specialist summer feed crop which is vital...

...UNITED STATES BECOMES A WORLD LEADER The United States had a long tradition of territorial expansion. Gains of adjacent territory in the 19th century—the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, the areas won from Mexico in 1848, and U.S. expansion across the continent—all enhanced American stature. More recently, the defeat and removal of Native American tribes by federal troops had opened the West to farms and ranches, speculators and corporations. A. THE ANNEXATION OF HAWAII In the 1880s a monarchy governed the Hawaiian Islands, but western powers, including the United States, Britain, and Germany, had significant influence in Hawaii’s economy and government. American business interests dominated the lucrative sugar business. Angered by U.S. domination, Hawaiian islanders in 1891 welcomed a native Hawaiian, Liliuokalani, as queen. Liliuokalani attempted to impose a new constitution that strengthened her power. American planters responded by deposing the queen in 1893. Proclaiming Hawaii independent, the Americans requested U.S. annexation. President Grover Cleveland stalled on the annexation treaty; his representative on the islands reported that native Hawaiians objected to it. Under President William McKinley, however, in 1898, Congress voted to annex the Hawaiian Islands. In 1900 Hawaii became American territory. B. THE SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR: CUBA AND THE PHILIPPINES United States involvement in Cuba began in 1895 when the Cubans rebelled against Spanish rule. The Cuban...

...Is America still the bully? This poem is really interesting combining history and imagery at the same time. Irony is a central theme in the poem. Roosevelt statue seems to be assigned with a role of the bully since we know who the weaker party was during the Spanish American War. The imagery of war is associated with the sounds of the poem. You do have to have a background in understanding the events described. During the Spanish-American War, Roosevelt was a major supporter of going to war with the Spanish, although it was seen as unnecessary by President McKinley and others (Spanish-American War). Initially Roosevelt is not painted in such a negative light. The statue is described as being “nostalgic” of a time long lost, and imagery is used to support this. “Each fist lonely for a saber, or the reins of anguish-eyed horses.” After this, though, it presents imagery of Hispanic children “invading” the school. It closes with a description of the statue in an almost silly way, as it is about to be vandalized with “parrot-brilliant” colors across its mustache and monocle. At the same time Espada also talks of the desegregation movements and immigration occurring in Boston and America. The poem contrasts the beliefs Roosevelt had of ethnocentrism and reasons for invading the Caribbean with that of the desegregation movements in Boston. Espada also use question about our progress beyond the war. Have we progressed from the dominant white society we once were? Are we a more diverse...

...SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR There were several long-term factors that contributed to the outbreak of hostilities in the Spanish-American War. One of these factors dealt with sugar production. Sugar production, the backbone of the island’s prosperity, was crippled when the American tariff of 1894 restored high duties on the toothsome product. (David M. Kennedy, Lizabeth Cohen, and Mel Piehl, The Brief American Pageant, 8th Edition, Wadsworth: Cengage Learning, 2012. 442) These sugar markets went sour in 1890 when the McKinley Tariff Act raised barriers against the Hawaiian product. White American planters’ mounting efforts to secure annexation by the United States were blocked by Queen Liliuokalani, who insisted that native Hawaiians should control the islands. Another long-term factor that contributed to the start of the Spanish-American War was the Explosion of the Maine in February 15, 1898. This explosion encouraged and amplified by the “yellow press” the outcry over the tragedy of the Maine, which helped to drive the country into an impulsive war against Spain. (David M. Kennedy, Lizabeth Cohen, and Mel Piehl, The Brief American Pageant, 8th Edition, Wadsworth: Cengage Learning, 2012. 442) Two-hundred and sixty sailors loss their lives when the Maine mysteriously blew up in Havana Harbor. There were two different open investigations inquiring about this explosion; one by U.S. naval officers and the other by Spanish officials. In 1976, the U.S. Navy Admiral H. G....
