.... first move by sending a delegate to England, and furthermore by standing up to congress to get this treaty ratified. He demonstrates again his great moral coura ge for the welfare of his country. Although Washington himself did not write the treaty he deserves all the credit for initiating it in the first place. The times had become rough with the British, and according to Hamilton the British were a vital part of our economy. He said " …the tax on imports furnished much of the money for paying off our foreign, domestic, and state debts." 2 Along with the British's impressment of American seamen and their role in our economy Washington knew s .....

.... worked out fine, but within the year, their personalities started to clash, and big problems arose. Then, on December 23, 1888, Paul Gaugin was taking a walk in the nearby public garden, when, according to his memoir “Avant et Apres," Vincent chased after Gaugin with an open razor blade. But, when Gaugin turned around, Vincent turned and ran home. Gaugin decided that this threat was too much for him to take, so he checked into a hotel room for the night. When Paul Gaugin arrived at home the next morning, he saw a crowd of police officers and citizens surrounding the house. When he went in the house he saw that there was blood everywhere- on towe .....

.... Dallas, Texas. At this time, Kennedy was shot in the head and neck by a sniper. He was then taken to Parkland Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Later, police arrested Lee Harvey Oswald, a former U.S. Marine, at a nearby theater. By the next morning, Oswald was booked for the murder of President John F. Kennedy. Two days later, Oswald was killed by Jack Ruby, a Dallas nightclub owner, while he was being moved from the city to the county jail. At a glance, the above story sounds as if this should be an open-and-shut case. After all, according to the facts above, Oswald must have killed Kennedy. However, you must tak .....

.... Black paint is also visible on the lower portion of Memi's hair, especially along the tips closest to his shoulders. All other paint on the statue seems to have deteriorated over the years. The hieroglyphs along the bottom of the stone slab label this work of historical art with representations of birds and plants. The representation of nature in Egyptian artwork is very common during the Old Kingdom time period. The overall statue remains fairly intact suffering from only one major handicap, which is the loss of its original color. This pair statue subtly deviates from the conventional representations of husband and wife in Old Kingdom artwork. .....

.... in Boston.4 When the soldiers were off duty they took side jobs in the town to earn some more money. This meant that they were taking away jobs from the people living in Boston, which only upset them more. Some of the Patriots would taunt the soldiers and throw stuff at them, like eggs and rocks. When the king made Thomas Hutchinson governor of the colony, the colonists were even more angered, because they did not agree with the governor’s thinking. They attempted to boycott stores that bought from England. Caught up in the patriotism, young boys would throw dirt, oyster shells, and dirt at those who went into the stores. On Februar .....

.... ordered the creation of the Ballet Conique de la Reine. It was an epic piece lasting five hours, meant to celebrate the marriage of a friend; this Ballet came to be known as the beginning of . During this period many more epic and influential dances were created. By the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries a firm foundation for Ballet had been established. Women began to join in the dance; Ballet Masters began to attempt a form of notation for this dance. In addition, costumes became sleeker in order to adapt to the intricate movement of the foot and the body of the female dancer, who, at this time began to gain dominance in the dance. To this poi .....

.... of wisdom, the goddess of the city , the protectress of civilized life, artisan activities , and agricultural bounty. All of these characteristics explain her sculptural likenesses in so many ancient cities in need of dietous protection. 1 This particular piece is of Severan creation.

Marcus Aurelius¹ son Commodus succeeded his father in 180, only to inherit an empire that was becoming increasingly harder to uphold , and imperial order was being threatened. Eventually, he was assassinated , and the Roman world was thrown into civil discord. Septimius Severus emerged as the new emp .....

.... Much of their platform was comprised of the same goals many civil rights activists and organizations sought during the 1960’s. Each organization and activist had his/her own ideology concerning the correct measures necessary in order to ensure equality for African Americans. Some organizations adhered to strictly peaceful protests while others, such as the Panthers pictured above, favored peaceful means of achieving equality unless violence was necessary for defense. The lists of courageous men and women who struggled for equality can be quite long. However, it is obvious that the picture of the Panthers lack the presence of women. This failure t .....

.... (1920), as a member of the New York Yankees, he outdid himself as he hit an astonishing 54 home runs (Creamer 219). The pattern continued as he hit 59 home runs in 1921 (Creamer 239). His pace slowed down a little for the next few years, but his pace picked up again. In 1927 he would hit his famous 60 home runs which was a record at the time and would last until 1961 when it was broken by fellow Yankee Roger Maris. He also made the first Major League Baseball All-Star Game memorable when he hit the first ever All-Star Game home run at Comisky Park in 1933 (Babe Ruth Museum 4). Babe Ruth had many glorious seasons and memorable moments. For inst .....

.... better lifestyle would be to examine music videos that contain live footage of concerts with a large mount of fans in attendance. A fairly mainstream hardcore act like Korn, for instance, contains footage in their video from a concert that displays literally thousands of fans in attendance. Musician hopefuls see the mass attention and want very badly to be appreciated in the same way. In addition to this, interviews on television stations like MTV relay opinions of the band over national television that many people might be able to identify with. Teenagers may place themselves in the "same boat" as these musicians and again gain imaginary aspirati .....
