.... was an invasion of Japan. The United States realized that the Japanese wouldn't surrender easily. They would fight to the very end. The loss of American lives would be too great to afford, thus being compelled to use the bomb. Also, the development of the atomic bomb cost 2,000,000 dollars. This was too large of a financial investment to waste in not using the bomb for reasonable causes. Lastly, many Americans also held bitter resentment against the Japanese for Pearl Harbor and the treatment of American prisoners. So the decision to drop the atomic bomb was essential. The atomic bomb's initial explosion has been devastating, but it also ha .....

.... art is. In my eyes, art has always been just a unique ability that I have. I feel driven by it, not to express some deep emotion, but almost as an obsession to perfect my own ability. Every stroke of a brush and every motion I make are to make what I've created more detailed, graceful, and real. I'm only now beginning to realize how much more there is to art than what I had previously understood. When I look at a piece of my work, I see the detail and realism of it, yet somehow I feel that these aspects are all that it possesses. I wonder whether or not I've almost turned my sense of art into a science that lacks the essential characteris .....

.... achieve the "American Dream". Unfortunately, each side had a different perspective on how to approach it. Slavery was a major issue, the North against, the South pro. The disagreement on slavery lead to difficulty in the issue of Westward expansion. Both agreed to it, but whether to admit them as free or slave states was where the split occurred. The compromise of 1850 stated that California enters free, and New Mexico and Utah decided on their own which is giving them more state rights in which the South heavily supported. This compromise did not satisfy each side fully. The issue of State rights intensified by the issue of slavery because the .....

.... for the sake of gaining knowledge, pushing the limits of what is possible in spite of obvious limitations and, eventually, paying the ultimate penalty, he could be considered a Renaissance martyr. These two points of view have their obvious differences, and depending on from what time period one chooses to place this piece of literature varies the way that the play is viewed. However, the idea of considering him a martyr has many flaws, several of which are evident when considering who was before he turned to necromancy and what he did once he obtained the powers of the universe. Therefore, inevitably, the audience in this play should realize .....

.... and the Vietnam War. The lyrics of this song probably make no sense whatsoever, but there is a very long story behind it. The original version of the song is over eighteen minutes long, when done with the original story. This is a shorter version. You can get anything you want... at Alice's Restaurant, exceptin' Alice You can get anything you want... at Alice's Restaurant Walk right in it's around the back Just a half-a-mile from the railroad track Oh... You can get anything you want At Alice's Restaurant. First of all, there is no restaurant named Alice's Restaurant. Rather, it is about a woman named Alice who lives near a restaurant. Alice and .....

.... more than anyone else to save the Jews. During his presidency, FDR had publicly condemned anti-Semitism more than any other public official in the nation. He was opposed to Hitler from the beginning and challenged anti-Semitism in 1938 by proposing the Evian Conference; a meeting attended by the Allies to determine how to deal with Hitler and the SS (Catledge, 1974). FDR was also a firm believer of the WagnerRogers bill, which if passed by congress would have given twenty- thousand Jewish children freedom into the U.S. However, this bill never found its way to FDR's desk. Anti-Semitism in America was at an all time high during this time, m .....

.... comes from his friends Hamish and Stephan. Can William Wallace get Scotland their freedom. The rise of a town can be an impossible thing to accomplish for many. This includes being a good leader and having certain characteristics. For example, you leadership must be fair to all that you represent. A group of rebellions can come just like that if you are not fair to them. Feeding, clothing, and other things must all be provided. Plus, protection is needed in case of invasion by other countries. This would require training your people with weapons and teaching them how to defend themselves and be brave when told to “CHARGE!� Another characte .....

.... three Cuban military bases were bombed by B-26 bombers. The airfields at Camp Libertad, San Antonio de los Banos and Antonio Maceo airport at Santiago de Cuba were fired upon. Seven people were killed at Libertad and forty-seven people were killed at other sites on the island. Two of the B-26s left Cuba and flew to Miami, apparently to defect to the United States. The Cuban Revolutionary Council, the government in exile, in New York City released a statement saying that the bombings in Cuba were ". . . carried out by 'Cubans inside Cuba' who were 'in contact with' the top command of the Revolutionary Council . . . ." The New York Times rep .....

.... artwork. The colour used is important to the artwork because together they create a place of tranquillity meeting on coming havoc. The lines that are used do not outline individual objects in the painting but define the shapes of each. They show the direction that the artist took when painting this particular art piece. They are delicate and sensitive lines in the sense that they are not always visible but they still define the object. The painting has been painted to a deep 2D form. This form creates an illusion of a large amount of space. As if to create the illusion that you were looking out past the village towards the horizon. Thi .....

.... of the Underground Railroad was its lack of formal organization. Its existence often relied on concerted efforts of helpful individuals of various ethnics and religions groups who helped slaves escape from slavery. Usually agents hid or destroyed their personal journals to protect themselves and the runaways. Only recently researchers have discovered the work created by courageous agents such as David Ruggles, Calvin Fairbank, Josiah Henson, and Erastus Hussey. The identity of others that also contributed to this effort will never be fully recognized. Though scholars estimate that Underground Railroad conductors assisted thousands of refugees, .....
