Words: 1312 / Pages: 5 .... of executions rose every month (21 in September of
1793, 59 in October, 61 in November, 68 in December, 61 in January of 1794,
77 in February, and 121 in March); and the Paris prisons held 8,000
prospective victims. Opponents to the Terror held that the victims were no
longer the clergy or the aristocrats, but rather ordinary citizens accused
of hoarding, profiteering, or one of the various offenses included under
the Law of Suspects. In 1794 the dictatorship of the Committee intensified,

Committee became dr .....

African Diaspora
Words: 1633 / Pages: 6 .... Detailed research done on slave communities in Surinam, South Carolina and Louisiana allow us to look deeper into the stated arguments. Having recently addressed the same issues using Colonial South Carolina as a case study, I will focus largely on some of the arguments and conclusions drawn from this study. The evidence from South Carolina, Louisiana and Surinam supports the second and third arguments much more than the first. The third argument, that of cultural transformation, is the argument I find to be most valid. John Thornton's analysis of this issue is extremely helpful. He addresses the "no connections" arguments in chapters 6, 7 and 8. .....

Words: 800 / Pages: 3 .... Kennedy was assassinated and his alleged assassin incredibly unprotected and gunned down two days later. The country had changed significantly by the early seventies. The passive public was not quite so willing to be blindly led anymore. The press was now activist in nature. Archilbald Cox stated “the Watergate experience is the convincing evidence… of the ability of the American people to come together in times when abuses of political power appear and threaten our political system.” The people were not willing to accept without question the proclamations of presidential press secretaries. In the process, the peoples’ self-image had to ch .....

Industrail Revolution
Words: 968 / Pages: 4 .... came gradually. However, when measured against the centuries people had worked entirely by hand, it happened in a short span of time. Until the inventions of the flying shuttle in 1733 and the spinning jenny in 1764, the making of yarn and the weaving of cloth had been much the same for thousands of years. By 1800 a host of new and faster processes were in use in both manufacture and transportation.
Several systems of making goods had grown up by the time of the Industrial Revolution. In country districts families produced most of the supplies that they used, while in the cities merchandise was made in shops, and manufacturing was strictly regul .....

Bulls On Parade
Words: 1051 / Pages: 4 .... around the bull forever.
The Running of the Bulls at the Fiesta de San Fermin is one of the major events in Spain. The tradition first originated when Saint Fermin went to France to preach the gospel. Because of religious intolerance the people of France beheaded him in the city of Amines (Fiesta de San Fermin). Thus gives the name to the fiesta in honor of San Fermin. The main event at the Fiesta de San Fermin is the Running of the Bulls. The running of the bulls pits the “mozos” young men versus the bull through the streets of Pamplona, Spain. The complete run lasts for an exhilarating three minutes and stretches over 825 met .....

Mathematical Realism And Its D
Words: 396 / Pages: 2 .... argues that all math isn’t based on facts. He says there is no proof that two plus two is four, and when a mathematician argues with him by giving him math rules Hersh replies by saying “I find it so astonishing that a good mathematician would so misunderstand the nature of proof.”
Hersh goes on and uses many analogies that attempt to disprove mathematics, but mathematicians believe the math is something to be found, not created. Mathematicians describe math as something to observe and find not something to create and construct.
I thought this article to be very interesting. While reading this article I was swayed from one side to the other .....

Evangilista Torricelli
Words: 487 / Pages: 2 .... solved some of the great mathematical problems of the day, such as the finding of the area and the center of gravity of the cycloid.
Torricelli's chief invention was the barometer. Pumpmakers of the Grand Duke of Tuscany attempted to raise water to a height of forty feet or more, but found that thirty-two feet was the limit to which it would rise in the suction pump. Strange enough, Galileo, who knew all about the weight of the air, had recourse to the old theory that "nature abhors a vacuum", modifying the law by stating that the "horror" extended only to about thirty-two feet. Torricelli at once conceived the correct explanation. He tried t .....

Chernobyl

At about 23:00 hrs. on April 25, the grid controller agreed to a further reduction in power. For this test the reactor was to be stabilized at 1,000 MW prior to shut down, however, due to operational error the power fell to about 30 MW where the positive void coefficient became a problem. The operators tried to raise the power by freeing all the control rods manually and at 01:00 hr. on April 26 the reactor stabilized at 200 MW. Within a short time, an increase in coolant flow and a drop in steam pressure required .....
