It is very important while doing a paper of research determining if your sources are credible or not. You should ask yourself several questions and this will help you determine the quality of your information. The questions are: Who funded the research? How was the data collected? Is the sample size and response rate sufficient? Does the research make use of secondary data? Can the findings be generalised to my situation, institution or country? also is very important checking if the facts are true.

What are three aspects of society today that you would like to reform, improve or change? Why?

irga5000 [103]

1. Unrealistic beauty standards. It’s a plague to our society and needs to be changed. It causes a lot of people to develop serious mental heath issues, identity issues and even body dysmorphia just trying to emulate the beauty standards that are simply unattainable and not real.

2. Poverty. I think it’s unfair that not everyone can have access to healthcare, which in my opinion should not be paid for, food, shelter and warmth. Which are the basic things needed to live. Not saying we should all be paid the same salary and live in the same houses, even if we’re a hardworking doctor. I just think everyone should be able to be fed, have somewhere to live and clothes on their back and an education so that they have the chance to get a job and create a career for themselves.

3. There’s so many things I’d want to change, limiting it to 3 is so hard lol but my third one would probably be equality between people whether that be race, religion, gender, whatever a person identifies as, who they love, what they want to be in life or however a person chooses to dress, whatever. This is due to the fact that everyone is different. There’s nothing we can do to change that, people are going to be different, they’re going to want to do things differently, they’re going to be born differently etc. Others shouldn’t treat someone else differently or bad because of the colour of someone’s skin, or because of the fact that they’re a woman, for example. A lot of people are prejudice to others just because of the things that make someone who they are, and I think it’s wrong and I’d love for it to change.

Other things I’d like to improve or change: environmental pollution,
global warming,world hunger,animal abuse, war, the education system and the prison system.

What is the history of sewing button?

<h3>The History of the Sewing Button</h3>

In our fast-paced, modern lives, where trends come and go overnight, we can often take for granted the most fundamental of things. At King & Allen, we are huge fans of tiny details and believe that we should pay them the homage they deserve. With that in mind, we thought we’d delve into the history of the unsung hero of any bespoke suit: the button. But where did buttons come from? Who was the first person to come up with this essential, often overlooked, part of most modern clothing?

The Indus Valley Civilisation are credited with the invention of the button and the earliest one we have in existence today dates from around 2000BCE and is made from a curved shell. The first buttons were used as ornamental embellishments to a person’s attire and signified wealth or status. They had small holes drilled into their surfaces and were attached to clothing by thread, often forming geometric patterns rather than the straight lines we know today. As the centuries progressed, the button became used more and more as a fastener for clothes, with the ancient Romans using them to fix clothing in place with pins.

However, it would be a long time before the invention of the buttonhole and the fully-functional button we know and love today. Over the centuries, the button evolved from an embellishment, to a more practical item. The middle ages brought with them the invention of the all-important buttonhole, which was to quietly revolutionise clothing. A stunningly-simple but elegant design, the geometrics allowed for the button to pass through the opening and be slotted firmly in place. Fashion would never be the same again.

Buttons would still be the preserve of the rich and fabulous for years to come, until the mass production of the Industrial Revolution saw the button become a ubiquitous staple. The style was pared-down, the shape flattened-out and four holes were drilled into the surface, meaning that it could be quickly and securely attached to clothing. Buttons nowadays come in a wide variety of colours and shapes, but the flat, circular shape still remains the most popular. In traditional tailoring, the horn button is usually favoured but recent years have seen a rise in alternative materials, such as the corozo button. This is made from the nut of the corozo tree and, due to the grain of the nut, each button is completely unique, like a fingerprint.
