Bell RInger 4/25/12

Transportation and communication spread the Industrial Revolution immensely by mingling with other people faster and better.
Women and children lives changed for they actually got to work for once, although they didn't recieve much pay for a while.
Methods of production changed because they were looking for efficiency
Machinery working increased the efficiency by a lot and the work conditons became poor for the owners were thinking in the "mind" set of machines.
Inventions in the textile industry lead to more inventions because they get thinking of how to better effieciency and all that.

Bell Ringer 4/24/12

I think that blaming the video game is a ridicoulesss statement and those who believe it's true are truly idiotic. Like the people were saying there were other influences involved in his actions. These are my thoughts about this bellringer.

Answer to Bell Ringer 4/11/12

We discussed this topic during classe; I think he should have been fired for the comment he made since it is bashing a certain race and America is trying to stay away from racial comments.

Answer to the Bell Ringer 4/16/2012

I think that the most important invention in the European society is the spinning jenny for it doubled the amount of products we could produce in the textile industry. This way we were protected from wind and stuff, it also allowed us to make blankets so we were kept warm.

Notes on European Industrial and Agricultural Revolutions

 1600's had subsistance  farming, which is farming that of what your family only needs until next year.

Middle to end of 1700's is where the encloser movement happens, fencing all the common or shared ground off.  People that had smaller families had their farms taken away and given to larger farm owners, had to become tenant farmers. Those that couldn't be tenant farmers were forced to move to cites. Since farms are now bigger, farmers are growing more out of their crops and start to look for efficiency.

 Gentleman named Jefthroy Toll concerned about the amount of seed by hand seeding, which is just throwing the seed out there invented the seed drill which made it more efficient to plant seeds.
 Go into crop rotation, which is were they rotated the crops between different land that you plant them in. Go from a wooden plows to metal plow. Created a replacable plow, where all you had to do was replace the blades.

People went into cities to find work. Great Britian is now the leader of the Industrial Revolution in Europe. Had a lot of resources, like coal and iron ore; also had rivers that provided food, energy, transportation; some disadvantages were could getting  clogged up, flooding, droughting.

Textile Industry, most made clothing by hand until mechaninazation, now made clothing with machines that can do more than 100,000  times speed. Factory system comes into play.
Steam engine is finally made, that power factories, boats and trains. Communications becomes quicker.
Factors of production = land, natural resources, labor

First person Rennaissance

      It was fun to grow up in Florence, where mostly everything was related some way to art. So it was no surprise when I became an amazing artist. My first apprenticeship was in a gold smith's workshop and then I studied under Lorenzo Ghiberti. I received some payment at gold smith work shops but my big pay load was assisting Ghiberti. I helped to construct some statues of prophets in the north door of the Florence Baptistiery. I also created one of the first central-point perspective sculptors on the base of Saint George and the Dragon.  I also collaborated with Michelozzo to help make the funeral monument of Antipope John XXIII for the Battistero in Florence. I also have to honor bestowed upon me to have built the first major art work of sculptor in the Renaissance period. You might have heard of this creation for it is the most famous of my works, David, which was also the first free-standing nude statue since ancient times. After some time in Florence I moved to Rome and made two artworks there, the Tomb of Giovanni Crivelli and Ciborium. Then I returned home and made my last collaborative work with Michelozzo the marble pulpit on the facade of Prato cathedral. I was a pioneer in the Renaissance era for not only did i create the first central-point perspective sculpture but also example of a lay bust portrait called Young Man with a Cameo. After that I spent my last years in Florence collaborating with amazing artists until I finally died and was buried next to Cosimo de'Medici the Elder.

Notes on Crusades

 The Crusades started around the 1000's when Seljuq Turks gained control of Palestine which was the "Holy Land" to the Christians
Around 10,0000 Europeans took up the cause of the Crusades
First Crusade began in 1096 to 1099,- french and italian lords led several armies from Europe to Constantinople. Despite lack of supplies they captured Antioch. Crusaders marched on and finally captured Jerusalum and massacred all the people inside.
Second Crusade started in 1147 when Turks began taking back cities that Christians took. King Louis VII of France and German King Conrad III led two seperate armies, they lost the city and in 1149 went back to Europe in disgrace.
In 1187 Muslim leader Saladin gained the control of Jerusalum. Holy Roman Emperor Frederick Barbarossa, King Philip II , and King Richard I of England led seperate armies to try to recapture the Holy Land, they failed. Richard made a truce which allowed Christians to own some coastal towns and let Christians go to Jerusalum freely.

Pope Innocent III gathered some knights that attacked some Christians city. These knights were Venetians and gained control Byzantine trade. Byzantinian Empire fell in 1453 to the Turks
Children's Crusade were in 1212 , young people marched to the Holy Land with inadequate equipment and training. Crusades continued till 1291 when Muslims captured Acre.
Through the Crusades they learned about gunpowder, use catepalts.Also more nobles died in the fighting, with that European Kings grew stronger; plus the Christian church became more powerful.
During the crusades the traded ideas and improved trading routes

Vow on Silence

      The vow of silence was an interesting day and activity. For me it was really hard since I like to talk a lot and really don't like to be quiet. Although it was very hard and excruciating I think I pulled it alright and did an alright job with it. If I had to take the Vow of Silence for a whole day my day would be completely boring and one the most terrible days that I would have lived. I understand the importance of this but I highly doubt that I could function like this for very long since I'm very talkative and loud. Usually the best parts of my day are when I'm in lunch and am talking with my friends and joking with them about a lot of different things. I have learned that I would never become a monk and take the vow of Silence for another moment of my life. The skills necessary to complete this task is a calm head and really shy nature. Also something that you have to have the the skill to control your urges, like if you have an urge to argue with somebody then you have to try and control yourself not to argue with that person. This Vow of Silence was a very amusing activity for it made me think how mute people live their lives and how much they would give to talk, if only for a couple of hours, they would be marveled at the power the human tongue.
