The Jungle is a story of hardships and trouble, some successes and many failures as a family tries to achieve the "American Dream." In this book, "The Jurgis Ruckus' myth of failure is the other side of the Horatio Alger's myth of success." (xxvi)…

This gave me a much more solid understanding for the process of papermaking. The paper itself is made from the fibers of a species of Ficus tree, called Amate in Yukatek, and coated with a fine layer of lime plaster. To make this paper, first bark from trees is collected, torn into small bits, and then soaked over a period of time to soften the bark for when it is turned into pulp. Once the pulp reaches the desired level it is rinsed with clean water and then kept in water until it is processed. The pulp is then arranged onto boards and beaten into a thin flat paper. The paper is then taken to dry, which could have taken anywhere from two hours to two days depending on the…

Paper comes from trees. It starts from logging, where trees are marked and cut down. In the logging process roads are made and large machines are used to load and transport the cut down trees. From a forest the trees are moved to a mill where they wait to dry. Once dried they are stripped of bark and cut into woodchips. Then the trees are cooked under heat and pressure, and soaked in limestone and sulphurous acid. This makes the chipped wood into a pulp. The pulp is washed and bleached and then color is added. Once the colored water is mixed with the pulp, the mixture is poured into a grid of bronze wires. The pulp is filtered out and rolled into paper and is then sent to another factory for folding, cutting, and printing to make grocery bags.…

Throughout the history of women’s fashion it is known that each decade creates its own symbolic fashion statement within that time frame. The change in women’s fashion advertising is hard to go un-noticed once looked upon. In the 1940’s women’s fashion seemed to be relatively tolerable and not very difficult to strive for when it came to a women’s perspective. As opposed to today’s fashion advertisement for women; the image that “defines” beauty is what some would describe as unreachable without drastic sacrifice. The women in the image of a 1940s women’s advertisement compared to women in an image of today’s fashion could almost be described as a women that failed to make the cut in strive of todays “beauty”. If you ask me, women’s fashion advertisement has snowballed downhill since the 1940s.…
