Ok since we have completed the twentieth century fashion lesson, it is time for me to assign your homework. Homework is to be sent to professor_evans_office@hotmail.com if it is PM'd it will be deleted and will not receive any marks. Spelling counts to a degree, ie. if I cannot understand what you are trying to say then I cannot award marks. Once the submission date has passed I will post the answers so you may check your work. Submission date is Thursday, October 14, 2004 by 11:59 EST (Miami, New York, Toronto time). I will be moving all submissions to a folder at that time and any that are received after the deadline will not be marked. Each question is worth 2 marks.

Here is the assignment:
