Conclusion
From the Paper
"The Czech Republic was occupied by the Germans in 1939; this resulted in more than 350,000 citizens (250,000 Jews) losing their lives. After World War II, the Germans had to leave the Czech Republic. By 1948, communism was the style of government within the Czech Republic; this resulted in different economic and social policies than the Western world.
"Given this history, it is probably thought that there are major differences between the United States and the Czech Republic. The population is 90% Bohemian, 4% Moravian, and 2% ethnic Slovak. Sixty percent (60%) of the population consider themselves Christian, but is heavily influenced by the communist past, of atheism. "Czechs value education, cleverness, social standing, modesty, and humor", the combination of these traits make them somewhat different from Americans, ("Czech Republic, 2006)."

Pizza Hut, 2005.

Abstract
In the 1950s, "Pizza Hut" opened a pizza parlor that changed the way American's feed their families, and became the largest pizza franchise in the country. Other pizza franchises have also become household names, such as "Dominoes" and "Little Caesar's", but "Pizza Hut" remains the most successful and well known. In order to understand why Pizza Hut has become comparable to such franchise legends as "McDonald's" and "Taco Bell", this paper compares aspects of this business's performance to its competitors. One such competitor is "Papa John's Pizza," which has gained a lot of popularity in recent years. The paper shows that "Pizza Hut" meets or exceeds "Papa John's" standards in customer service, delivery time and understanding of their customers' needs.
From the Paper
"Pizza Hut also appears to excel at the advertising and marketing campaigns that it uses to reach out to customers. In 2000, Pizza Hut won a lawsuit which required Papa John's to pull it's "better ingredients, better pizza" slogan from all of its marketing materials within three weeks (Pizza, 2000). This lawsuit was first filed in 1998 because Pizza Hut believed that Papa John's was misleading the public in saying that their pizza sauce and crust was fresher than it actually was (Maxon, 1998). Basically, Papa John's stores their pizza crusts from four to six days after they are shipped from central creation points to the stores, and they also use canned sauce, which Pizza Hut believes shows that their claims of freshness are not appropriate (Maxon, 1998)."

Abstract
This paper analyzes the history and political impact of the Czech film industry while focusing on the emergence of the Czech new wave movement, so called because it represented a break from the dominant film styles that preceded it. This paper details the differences and similarities between Czech new wave films and other films from the same region which yielded much insight into the characteristics and virtues of this particular movement. In order to better understand the Czech new way movement, this paper contains a brief yet concise account of the Czech film industry in the first half of the 20th century as it is related to Czech history as well as samplings from the social, political and economic realms. This paper also details the characteristics of the Czech new wave movement as well as relevant information regarding how the movement contrasted with what came before it.
From the Paper
"Under pressure from Hitler, Czechoslovakia collapsed in 1939 and was divided into a number of separate regions with different ultimate fates. The film studios that had been built in Czechoslovakia were taken over by the German film industry, which used them mainly to produce artful yet propagandistic films to garner Nazi support throughout the 1940s. This continued until 1944, when the area was liberated by Soviet troops. A new Republic of Czechoslovakia was formed, but it was not artistically fruitful. In 1947, a communistic government was established after a coup in Czechoslovakia."

Abstract
This paper analyzes the history of the Czech film industry. Under Josef Stalin, the Soviet Union adopted the theory of socialist realism as the official state formula for works of art including the cinema. Socialist realism held that the arts should glorify the political and social ideals of communism. With the death of Stalin, the development of creative ideas in the film industry were part of a wider growth of ideas in economics, politics, literature and the arts which made up the Czech new wave movement. This paper details the characteristics and goals of this particular movement. The Czech new wave movement gave east European filmmakers various methods for solving ideological and historical issues while looking for new way of expressing reality. This paper focuses on the career and accomplishments of prominent filmmaker Milo Forman. The movies that Milos Forman made early in his career as a director in Czechoslovakia, notably "Loves of a Blonde" and "Fireman's Ball" broke the prevailing mold of socialist realism. This paper discusses various films directed by Forman as well as the director's motivations and methods for creating both timeless and memorable films.
From the Paper
"With the death of Stalin, the development of creative ideas in the film industry were part of a wider growth of ideas in economics, politics, literature, and the arts that made up the Czechoslovak Reform Movement, or the New Wave. Eastern European filmmakers were trying various ways of solving ideological and historical problems, and looking for new styles for expressing reality: metaphors were the safest way to raise these issues under the close scrutiny of government censors. In Czechoslovak cinema, the symbols were derived directly from daily life. With liberalization it became possible to comment on the horrors and absurdities of the previous decade while directors dealt more directly with the compromises and crises of daily life. Honest, patient observation and a refusal to bend reality to the demands of a narrative characterize New Wave films."

Abstract
In this article, the writer studies race riots and alcohol addiction and gambling as a part of organized crime within Chicago. The writer points out that political corruption and instability that marked the era of 1920s in Chicago can be studied through the different events that took place during that time. The writer then mentions that Chicago history records such events as a railroad strike on Halsted Street in Chicago, Illinois, the workers' protest against meager wages by the U.S. labor board and some race riots to mention a few. Further, the writer discusses the affects of prohibition in Chicago, as this was intended to bring about economic improvement and a reduction in crime, which did not actually happen.
Outline:
Race Riots in Chicago
Alcohol Addiction
Organized Crimes in Chicago
Bibliography
From the Paper
"While it would be wrong to classify Chicago as a crime-ridden city now, still for some odd reason, this city has become a symbol of organized crime. The era of 1920s brought a seriously bad name to the city which means that when we mention Chicago, somehow the images of machine guns rattling on the streets pop up in our minds. Corrupt politicians, bootleggers and notorious gangsters found this city as a haven for crime activities and it came to be known as the Capone's Chicago because of increased activities in organized crime. But while this city was infested with crime, at the same time, people were also struggling to free their beloved city of the problems transplanted by the Sicilian Mafia. Another major reason why crime rates and other illegal activities escalated was the fact that many youngsters found it a safe haven to get what they wanted including drugs, brothels and gambling activities."

Artist Judy Chicago, 2005.
This paper discusses the quintessential feminist artist Judy Chicago and analyzes her "The Dinner Party" .

Abstract
This paper explains that Judy Chicago applies vulvar representations to her works with the same frequency that penile representations were applied to male statuary from time immemorial; however, Chicago creates female genitalia not to portray realism, as the male genitalia on Greek, Roman, Renaissance or any other heroic statuary, but rather to make a feminist statement. The author describes "The Dinner Party" installation as a triangular banquet table, with each side 48 feet long, sitting on a ceramic floor inscribed with the names of 999 notable women of history, both ancient and modern and at each of the 39 places is a plate, with some version of female genitalia on it and a porcelain chalice. The paper relates that "The Dinner Party" belongs to the genre of conceptual art; Chicago, along with Duchamp and Christo is deemed to be a valuable modern minimalist.

From the Paper
"The vulvar ornamentation of "The Dinner Party" places Judy Chicago firmly in a long line of sculptors who represented this essential aspect of female-ness across cultures. Sheila-na-gigs "closely resembled the yonic statues of Kali which still appear at the doorways of Hindu temples, where visitors lick a finger and touch the yoni 'for luck.' Some of the older figures have deep holes worn in their yonis from much touching." This also imitates the death goddess Kalika "evidently remembered in Ireland as the Caillech or 'Old Woman,' who was also the Creatress and gave birth to all the races of men." Whether or not Chicago was conversant with the totality of this world-order of female genitalia and its meaning and importance, she conveyed it just as firmly as had the abundant sheila-na-gigs of Ireland."

From the Paper
"According to Roper, at 4:30 on an average afternoon, 73% of Americans have no idea what they will feed their family for dinner. With the growing amount of last-minute dinner decisions, pizza delivery is a timely and convenient option that gives families a viable meal replacement option for an affordable price. As daily lives become more hectic and people are less inclined to cook, shop, and clean, we would expect this occasion to increase and provide continued demand for pizza delivery."

From the Paper
"To counter this trend of dinner being by far the most critical time for any pizza delivery business, Domino's competitors are experimenting with food products to move into other meals. Breakfast is not sold at most pizza operators; however, Papa John's is in the process of testing breakfast pizzas such as "pizza omelets."
Interestingly, pizza sales also tend to be skewed toward weekends, when customers order pizzas not only as a meal replacement but also for special occasions. Weekday sales may also present an opportunity for pizza operators as the demands on people's time increase and a greater premium is placed on the convenience of ordering pizza on a weeknight."

Chicago and the Meat Packing Industry, 2002.

Abstract
The following research explores the history and impact of the meat packing industry on Chicago. It supports the thesis that the meat packing industry was not the sole industry in Chicago, but that it was responsible for supporting many other industries that would not have survived without it. It gives several instances where the Chicago meat packing industry had an effect, not only the local area, but on the nation as well.
From the Paper
"We get another glimpse of the meat packing industry from author Upton Sinclair in his 1906 book, The Jungle. Sinclair?s book brought the plight of the meat-packing worker to the eyes of the world and this sparked a controversy. He called the conditions of the worker as closely resembling wage-slavery. It highlights the challenge of the immigrant worker?s struggle for simple survival against a modern capitalist economy. It shed a socialist perspective on the subject, but it was his portrayal of the unsanitary conditions in the plants that hit home. His book caused such an uproar the government decided to launch an investigation and found Sinclair?s descriptions to be accurate. This eventually led to the Meat Inspection Bill and the Pure Food Bill, passed on June 6, 1906, the same year Sinclair?s book hit the market (Zwick, 2003). President Theodore Roosevelt was provided an advance copy and it sickened him. He immediately called upon Congress to set up the Food and Drug Administration, setting up the first federal standards for meat inspection (Blackwell, 1998)."

Conclusion
From the Paper
Judy Chicago and her Dinner Party bears some significant historical meaning for the world of feminism, the world of art history, and the world that ordinary people like you and me live. In contrast to the modernists/modernism and abstract expressionists/abstract expressionism that require artwork to be a production from solitary beings, Chicago used a total of 400 or so collective powers to constitute her piece of history. In contrast to the passive roles of feminine figures in the history of art, Chicago not only accepted the female figures but also blatantly integrated the female genitals into The Dinner Party.
