.... to earn money and be able to contribute to the economy. That is why the economy did not fall to pieces, although the main reason for the United States getting out of the depression was WWII. The economy was doing great prior to the stock market crash. People were investing and the country was on the rise. But with such problems as bad investments, bad income distribution, bad banking, bad foreign trade, and over-expansion of credit the stock market crashed and the U.S. was heading to a depression. One of the first Acts to affect the economy was the Emergency Banking Relief Act. This act authorized the Federal Reserve Board to issue more currency .....

.... Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. Membership was open to native-born, white, Protestant men, the Klan was thought to be patriotic. After World War I the Klan expanded rapidly In addition to preaching white supremacy, it attacked non-Protestants, aliens, liberals, trade unionists, and striking workers. Like its predecessor, the new Klan burned fiery crosses and employed violence to scare its enemies. After 1921 the Klan grew rapidly in membership and influence, “In a six month period from 1920 to October 1921 the Klan added 100,000 new members, And made one and a half million dollars from the sale of robes, ritual equipment and other paraphernalia.� .....

.... that maintain the music’s continuity. Within these three movements, there are nineteen smaller parts. The first and last movements have nine parts that make up the contrasting sounds in the music. The final movement concentrates more on the pitch transformation. Structurally, this format would be a recapitulation, but the use of pitch transforms it into something new. To emphasize the pitch fluctuation, three different kinds of flutes were played. Because of the pitch variation in this piece, there were many melodies to follow. In a way, the music sounded like sound effects to a horror flick. For example, the tone colo .....

.... I believe that rap music was never violent until "gangsta" rap came about. What sparked this change and who was behind it? I want to explore "gangsta" rap from the beginning until now. I want to research the major players in the rap game, who they are and what some of their lyrics are saying. Today our society is bursting at the seams with violence. There is fighting in other countries like Kosovo, shootings in schools, and violence on television. In my opinion, though, nothing has a greater effect on the youth of America than rap music. However, this isn’t a new issue, there has been for years. Such as, gang violence, references to d .....

.... it from a mere mirror image of life. The most important of these formal requirements is unity. Taking tragedy as an example, the representation of the action of the play is the plot, and the plot is the ordered arrangement of the incidents. A well-constructed play must have a beginning, middle and an end. The plot must neither begin nor end in a haphazard way. The plot of the play must represent the action of the play as a unified whole. 'Incidents must be so arranged that if any of them is differently placed or taken away the effect of wholeness will be seriously disrupted.' (Poetics, ch 8). It is the historian who makes a copy or record of th .....

.... "I'm awake." He said this with great emotion. He knew he'd been sleeping, but not for as long as it actually was. Before his total awakening, Dr. Sayer spent many hours tending to Leonard, observing that he was like a live animal, trying to escape, that couldn't break free. This showed his dedication. Dr. Sayer's scientific research into the L. Dopa drug made possible Leonards 'awakening.' He saw this drug as having potential and gave it a try. As the drug was given to Leonard, Dr. Sayer noticed little effect, but this made him more persistent and the dosage was raised. Initially, it was 200mg, and through Dr. Sayer's persistence, the dos .....

.... cargo. Unlike what most people think the people who organized and went through with the Boston Tea Party did not dress like Native Americans. Instead they actually put soot from chimneys on their faces and wore strange costumes. This surprised the British and it also led to what is now known as the Boston Massacre. This massacre included some angry civilians and four ill-tempered British soldiers. With all these events occurring it angered the Americans so much that they waged war with Britain. The first battle of the American Revolution took place in Lexington, Massachusetts. There were many soldiers awaiting the first shot of the revoluti .....

.... Many were written by wandering people, many of them men and churchmen without permanent residences of their own. Men who could not obtain a position in the Church and had to drop out were called goliards. These goliards wandered around the land, composing and performing for people. Their music was mostly comprised of the "’eat, drink, and be merry’ type, appropriate to the wanton kind of life the goliards lived" (Stolba, 99). Carl Orff, the composer of the Carmina Burana, used the poems found in the largest surviving records of Latin secular music that we have today. The Codex latinus 4660 was held in the Benedictine monastery at Benediktbeu .....

.... The Republicans were anti- South but they were in not abolitionists. They believed that slavery was a flawed system that made the south ineffective and because the North's free labor system was superior it must be guarded from southerners. When the Republican candidate, Abraham Lincoln was elected in 1860, the South felt threatened, and because expansion was vital to the survival of slavery they also felt their way of life was being threatened. Because slavery was such an important part of Southern society, the South felt that they could not survive without it. That's why they were not willing to compromise with the north. To own slaves was .....
