Goodnight iPad: A Parody for the Next Generation Modern day society has a hard time saying “goodnight” to their technological devices, a problem that Ann Droyd explores in her parody picture book, Goodnight iPad. Through witty illustrations and a rhythmic word scheme, Droyd follows the nightly routine of a colony of rabbits engrossed by their gadgets and gizmos. The story opens with an exaggerated description of all of the appliances within the household. The mother rabbit, trying to sleep, quickly

Father and son trudge slowly and silently through a snow covered forest in hopes of finding owls. It is a story of patience, perseverance, but most of all hope. “When you go owling you don’t' need words or warm or anything but hope”. The illustrations for Owl Moon are done by John Schoenherr. The illustrator chose pen with watercolors on d'Arches paper.

“An eye for an eye makes the whole world go blind.” - Ghandi. The story of Dawn reinforces this well-known quote by demonstrating the heavy silence of murder and it’s feeble justifications.

exclusions persist from the days of traditional data collection and analysis to today’s era of “big data” collection and analysis? Considering our volume-based view to data, there are two types to describe the data volume, which are Total Volume(TV) and Unit Volume(UV).

In an effort to compile reason and scientific knowledge, an explanation of the formation of the universe was formed and is widely known as The Big Bang Theory.

Due to this we see our own Big Brother like organizations forming presently which can track our every move, similarly to how Big Brother - the political party which controls Oceania with an iron fist and watches what everyone does using telescreens- can follow Winston's - the protagonist in 1984- every move. Furthermore, similarly to how Winston ignorantly questioned Big Brother's existence, people today question whether these organization actually

Many people fear that the world will become like the world of 1984, yet they are oblivious that it is slowly becoming more like it every day.
