... The documentary film Summer of Love is about the year of 1967 when the children from the baby boom generation had grown up and were now in their college years, but instead of going to school chose instead to change the world. These young people had grown up experiencing the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, men constantly being drafted into the Vietnam War which was killing more than one hundred soldiers per week, and the civil rights struggles. There continued to be a deep anxiety about communism taking over the United States and the threat of atomic weapon. A part of that generation came to be known as “hippies,” who thought that they could bring change to the world by spreading peace and love. The Haight-Ashbury district in San Francisco, California was a small and low-income area for modern families to live, until January 14, 1967 when there was a “coming together” and the Haight-Ashbury district became the home of modern jazz, hippies, communal living, and turning to drugs as a new way of living. Music began to change, LSD and acid became a way of life, food was served free, furniture and clothes were being distributed at no cost to people, and money became the root of all evil. They thought they could make the world into what they wanted by acting it out, but the hippies were extremely unwelcomed by the long-time residents. When spring break came around people, especially kids, from all over the country were visiting Haight-Ashbury because peace and love was starting...

...IT302-Unit7- Kaplan University Part1 – Introduction. The approach I used in unit 5 was a generic design which is flexible in nature with a basic layout planned so it can be easily molded, or modified to fulfill a variety of needs or applications. The wireframe associated with the design is shown without a supporting structure. The associated structure will be dictated by its application and placement. Part 2: Commentary Text. Commentary text should be selectable using different means. The most obvious means of selection is by the use of a designated help button. When touched this will display a help screen to provide a means for the customer to seek assistance. Additionally, this should also be accomplished by clicking the mouse curser on an item or text that information is desired on. All of these means should result in the same basic effect. The commentary text used in the presenting the product to potential customers has the potential of using a variety of text styles and sizes. Also in some cases color will be added to the text for emphasis or used to highlight items or attract the consumers’ interest. When initially presenting an item the text that is to be used will be designed in a manner to catch potential customers’ attention. This can be accomplished through the use of text styles that catch the eye, such as a change in size or creating an emphasis through the use of colors. Using a text style...

I came to the United States when I was 18 years old. I attended to Glendale Community College before I transferred to California State University of Los Angeles. My major is Business Management. This is my third quarter in California State University of Los Angeles and I am junior in this year. I spent a lots of time to choose my major. First of all, I decided my major as Business Administration, but when I transferred to California State University of Los Angeles and I knew that I could choose different options of Business Administration in this university, that’s why I chose the management because it’s too hard for me to make a great decision for major. I thought that this major might be so difficult for students, but when I took Management 306 in last quarter, I understood that this major was for me. I had career goal in the past, for example, I wanted to become soccer player when I was child. I went to soccer training in my hometown and I wanted to be a famous player as Lionel Messi, but I couldn’t approach to that goal because I came to the United States and forgot about that goal what I had in the past.

...In Vonnegut’s novel Cat’s Cradle, the constant thing that is being said is the religion Bokonon. It is established from the beginning that it is all based on lies, but the whole city of San Lorenzo worship it and follow what it says, even though it is forbidden and you will get the “hook” if you do. “Nothing in this book is true.” These were the first words given in the prologue. Immediately after this, the main character says, “Call me Jonah. My parents did, or nearly did. They called me John.” Jonah began to collect things for a book he was going to write called The Day the World Ended. It was going to be about what Americans did on that very exact day the first atomic bomb was deployed on Hiroshima, Japan. This book will never be completed. This book was meant to be a Christian book, but Jonah is now a Bokononist. If someone would’ve told him about the “bittersweet lies” the book told, he would’ve became a Bokononist from the very beginning. Bokononists believe that civilization is shaped into groups that do God’s work without ever knowing what they’re doing. A karass is what they call themselves. “All the true things I am about to tell you are shameless lies.” The warning in this is any person who can not comprehend how a useful religion can be based on lies then you will not understand the point to this book. So be it. Jonah’s karass includes the three children of Dr. Felix Hoenikker. Who is known as the “father” of the first atomic bomb. Jonah wrote a letter to...

...Beach in beautiful San Diego California, is filled with nothing but surf, sun, entertainment, and good times. The water is always nice and the surf is usually always up; so there is always a chance at some point during the day to catch some good waves. Since Pacific Beach is located in sunny Southern California, chances are you will be able to work on that tan when laying on this beautiful beach. Around this entire beach area, there are many establishments to stop by to grab a delicious bite to eat or even consume a few refreshing adult beverages. You can even cruise the boardwalk, check out the gift shops, and all of the outdoor equipment rentals. Pacific Beach is the little strip of paradise that has everything you need in walking distance. Pacific Beach is the beach in San Diego is the beach that has all the trash, drunks, bums, and high police activity. The water is usually freezing cold, filled with mounds of kelp, and if you are not careful an ignorant surfer can take your head off with his board. It is nearly impossible to sunbathe and relax on the shore. There are too many loud, obnoxious and usually intoxicated college kids running around and causing a scene. Since you can no longer sip on your own beer on the beach, you can get one at the overpriced establishments surrounding the beach. One can always get lost on the boardwalk as well, the crowds of people and all of the pan handling bums can be overwhelming just to look at some cheesy San Diego souvenirs....

...Ensuring that visitors can read comfortably by not forcing them to squint at the content of a page is important. Depending on the type of message that is being portrayed, the text should be clean, clear, and legible. Spelling and typographic errors are just as important as the font choice, in this case. Also, the easiest font to read is a black font on a white background. This is especially important when considering accessibility needs of those who may not have the best eyesight. Strangely enough, text font inherently has the ability to invoke emotion in the reader. This can be good or bad, depending on the font chosen. Two basic types of fonts are the Serif and the Sans Serif. Serif is the text, like Times New Roman, that has that extra curve and tail on each letter. Sans Serif, can be remembered because Sans, meaning without / minus / lacking Serif, means that the letters do not have that tail and are straight, like the Arial font. Another consideration regarding the impact of fonts is the number of fonts used and whether they look good together. Ideally, no more than two fonts should be used in a design because it’s too distracting to the reader.

Examples of serif fonts are: Times New Roman, century, Palatino linotype, Garamond, Bodoni MT. What is a sans serif typeface? A sans serif typeface is a font that does not have ornamental lines added to the basic structure of the character hence the use of the French word ‘sans’ which means ‘without’.

Some of the runners take the event seriously some just go out and run, usually 5 or more runners get hurt a year. The bull’s path leads them half a mile to the stadium so they can begin the fighting of the bulls a cruel event where the bulls meet its end in the ring against a matador a skilled fancy suit wearing fighter.
