Therefore, the work of the magazine is one of a work in progress in many respects and continually changes to adapt the changing society over time.
Pride and Prejudice is as much a part of our culture as Cosmopolitan magazine. However, there are inherent differences between the two.

Pride and Prejudice is a classical work of literature. The content of the novel has not changed over the course of time. What has changed about the novel is readers perceptions of the novel based on the views of a changing society. Pride and Prejudice does not rely on glitz and glamour to get the attention of its readers. Pride and Prejudice and all of Austen's novels for that matter illustrate the views of that time period in history. The society during that time is pictured through the words in the novel and the reader is able to grasp a feel of a…...

ise of the Atomic Age (1950-1960)

The prosperity that came with the end of the war continued into the new decade. Americans attempted to settle into a life or normalcy. There was a significant return to traditional gender roles, as many women were forced back into the household and the men went off to work as usual. Women, now used to providing for themselves represented a new target market. To fill their days they read the "seven sisters" (McCall's, Ladies Home Journal, Cosmopolitan, edbook, Good Housekeeping, Seventeen, and Women's Day). These magazines began to dictate…...

Christy Turlington explains to Elle magazine... "Advertising is so manipulative," she says. "There's not one picture in magazines today that's not airbrushed."… "It's funny," Turlington continues. "hen women see pictures of models in fashion magazines and say, 'I can never look like that,' what they don't realize is that no one can look that good without the help of a computer." (Hilary 13)
That's right, the beautiful Turlington, a woman that can be said as fitting the standard ideal of American beauty, admits that it is unachievable even for her. hy? Because even she admits that she has been touched up. In a similar exercise, we can only imagine the remarkable steadfastness this act must have taken, but it shows that there is a realization that this American image is unattainable (Domar 23).

Virtual Teams Throughout the Globe
My assessment of the best practice suggestions regarding privacy at work made in the January 2013 issue of Cosmopolitan magazine is favorable. It is quite clear that social media has had a significant impact on the way that people interact with their co-workers, and on relationships between employees and employers. The key is to utilize that impact in a way that is advantageous to workers. pecifically, the author of this article makes a good point when she indicates that it is best to get to know one's employer on a somewhat personal level, as long as it is done in moderation (Anderson, 2013, p. 76). The point is for one's employer to think favorably of his or her employee, not to become best friends with him or her.

Such sagacity is applicable to virtual teams just as well as to those that operate in a physical environment. Actually, they probably apply even more in the former because the only means of communication is via the internet and the occasional phone call. Thus, employees must take caution to not allow too much of their personal lives to be revealed. In fact, they should only disclose as much as their employers do, as Anderson (2013) indicates (p. 76). The crux of the issue is that when working in a virtual team, it is not as necessary to guard one's privacy as it is when working with others in a physical location -- because one never sees one's co-workers. Therefore, it is all the more critical to take one's cues from one's employer in terms of discerning how much personal information one should reveal about oneself. The point is to maintain one's privacy while not becoming too aloof from one's co-workers, so that they do not feel as though they do not know whom they are working with.

The vast majority of the recommendations for the success of virtual and global teams elucidated in this week's readings were prudent. Dispersion inherently affects a team and the way that it functions. One of the most valuable of the recommendations for the success of such teams includes evaluating "the social skills and self-sufficiency of the potential team members" (Siebdrat et al., 2009, p. 63). Self-reliance is a critical factor to evaluate, because it is disadvantageous to work in a situation in which team members do not do all of their work simply because they are not in a physical environment in which their efforts are well-regulated. I have actually encountered such an experience while involved in group projects for my post-secondary education. It is not uncommon for people to wait for others to do work that they would rather not do themselves. Had I been able to pick the team myself, I would have evaluated the capacity of each member to function autonomously within the team framework and selected members accordingly.

In the near future, I have a team project in which I will have to work with a team distributed throughout the continental United States. One of the most pivotal recommendations that I will implement in this project is the need to "establish and maintain trust throughout the use of communication technology" (Malhotra et al., 2007, p. 61). There is a shared, virtual work space in which members of my team will communicate with one another about the research we are conducting in various locations. It is not enough to have such a work space. Someone should help to establish normative means of communicating in this space so that each team member feels comfortable communicating in it and using it appropriately.

Representation of Women Through Media Has Changed From 1960s
How representation of women through media has changed from the 1960s

Susan Douglas suggests that fifty years ago, mass media existed in the form of music, television, and magazines. However, she suggest that the journey has been tough owing to the manner in, which the media represents women. The media used a sexist imagery to represent women, especially women who took part in music. Although researchers suggest that the media is a powerful tool, she suggests that the public had an option to resist the media by turning off their television, or ignoring advertisements in the magazines (Douglas 1995). Mass media had substantial influence on the social, cultural, economic, spiritual, political, and religious phases of the society as well as personal level thinking, feeling, and acting. Notably, mass media has both a good side and a bad side; it is insidious and…...

During the decade between 1960-1970, Hays' work was all over representations of popular American culture. He had also produced amazing illustrations of great ock, Jazz, and Blues singers, which had a dark twist according to his stylistic expression (see Image B). Hays began teaching in the late 1950s at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. Towards the end of the 1970s he relocated to California where he served as Chairman of the Illustration Program at the Art Center College in Pasadena.
Hays represented a new and creative style that highlighted unique interpretations utilizing elements of expressionism. Hays and his contemporaries would interpret textual and literary influences with more expressive license. While teaching, Hays was a strong believer in expanding the context of art educations to include other media of artistic expression. Thus, he incorporated elements of literature, theater, and film into his student's artistic curriculum to allow…...

African estaurant evival
New York is home to people from all over the world, and it is well-known that they often bring with them cuisine from their homelands. Foodies descend on food courts in subterranean malls in Queens, ussian bakeries in Brooklyn, and ethnic food trucks pretty much anywhere throughout the five boroughs. For being a cosmopolitan city with such cosmopolitan tastes, surprisingly little attention is paid to the diversity of African food. The continent of Africa is rich in food tradition and, increasingly, we are seeing these traditions manifest throughout New York. This trend is occurring in many places, in particular Manhattan and Brooklyn. In fact, several openings over the past few years have dramatically altered the African dining scene, and this development is very much worthy of coverage. This citywide exposure to the African food trend makes it an excellent topic heading into the summer eating season.

Men and women have many more options today when it comes to their choices in periodicals opposed to even a short thirty years ago. Although they both have the shared increase in choices, there are some very universal differences between the two genders.
It may be men preferring topic specific magazines while women enjoy generalized periodicals, or the way members of their sex and the opposite sex are displayed, or even the thrust of advertising campaigns found throughout, in the end there's no getting around it, men and women's periodicals are simply different, just as men and women themselves are.

When he graduated from high school, Vebell won three art scholarships and he attended all three schools -- moving from each throughout the day. He launched his professional illustration career in a busy Chicago agency and then enlisted in World War II. It was not long after this that he was recruited to create images for the Stars and Stripes, a military publication that had also featured Norman ockwell's drawings during World War I. In 1945, he participated in the Nuremberg War Crimes Trial as a courtroom artists, capturing the likenesses of Goering, Hess, Speer, and ibbentrop (now in the collections of the Museum of the Holocaust in Washington, D.C.).

Guy Billout (1941- )

A French born illustrator, Guy Billout has had a long career of producing clean and fresh illustrative works. Working within a modern and somewhat experimental tradition, Billout has shown his provocative works in many contemporary magazines such as olling Stone and Atlantic Monthly. He has also illustrator in several children's books including The Frog Who Wanted to See the Sea and Something's Not Quite ight.

With his work within children's literature, he is extending his influence to a younger generation as well as contemporary art fans. Much of his work portrays experimental images, portraying things in an unnatural, yet clean manner; "His illustrations use events which challenge physics such as rivers flowing uphill and gravity-defying structures," (Vienne 1998). In his work, Billout is constantly using the incorporation of irony to make social statements or to show man as vulnerable within a larger context of the universe, (see Image…...

"Hong Kong's Missing History" is an electronic version of a journal article. History Today is a journal that is geared towards a popular audience, but is written by journalists with strong academic backgrounds in history.

This article was written upon the eve of the takeover of the prosperous, capitalist British colonial possession of Hong Kong by China. It suggests that the cosmopolitan identity of Hong Kong is unique, and still evolving, and cannot be subsumed under either a British or a Chinese national character.

Q3. A quick list of key points

Expatriate training

Expatriates face many challenges when they move to a foreign country. They need to be prepared both psychologically and mentally to ensure they will manage to handle the challenges they will encounter on their foreign assignment. Many employers nowadays will provide some form of training to their expatriates to inform and prepare them on what to expect in regards to culture, social, and environment.

esearch conducted on expatriates has shown that cultural issues affect expatriates the most. Some cultural issues discussed in the paper include male dominated societies for female expatriates, media restrictions, social life restrictions and language barriers. These issues are dependent on the country an expatriate is posted.

There are also social issues that expatriates are faced with like how employees…...

Music and Dance in Indian Films
In sheer quantity, INDIA produces more movies than any other country in the world-over 900 feature-length films in at least 16 languages, according to a recent industry survey. This productivity is explained by several factors: the size of the Indian audience, low literacy rates, the limited diffusion of television in India, and well-developed export markets in both hemispheres. (http://worldfilm.about.com/cs/booksbolly/)

In its historical development, India's film industry paralleled that of the West. Dadasaheb Phalke's Raja Harishchandra, the first silent film for popular consumption, appeared in 1913; Alam Ara, the first "talkie," was released in 1931. ut the Indian cinema derived its unique flavor from the older Indian musical theater-particularly from the Urdu poetic dramas of the late nineteenth century. The influence of this tradition ensured that Indian movies would favor mythological or legendary-historical stories, that their dialogue would carry an Urdu flavor even in languages other than…...
