... to be safe in the trenches were badly injured and dying. He didn't know what to do so he started to run along the outskirts of the city trying to stay away from the ever-growing fire. As he ran he saw burned bodies and people buried under houses that were on fire. He tried to help them but he could not because the flames were to hot.

... you could imagine became some how related to the Beatles, Beatle boots, Beatle haircuts and Beatle slang (gear, fab) just to name a few. If the Beatles wore a particular coat or shirt, grew a moustache, openly adopted the use of drugs or questioned religion, the whole of the rock world would do the same. If they took a guru or abandoned one, gave peace a chance or even did it in the road (Abbey Road), the world of rock took notice and did the same, tried to do the same or just wanted to do the same. The origin of the phenomenon that became the Beatles can be traced back to 1957. Paul McCartney was picked from an audition for a position in John Lennons then band " ...
... there when the Cuban Missile Crisis broke out. And they were there when the Supreme Court ruled on the Hazelwood court case. The professional journalists have set an example for high school students who also want to cover important events that are pertinent to their school and community. Up until 1987, the Tinker v. Des Moines (1968) case’s ruling prevailed which appeared to reinforce the idea of high school students’ right to free speech—as long as there was no “disruption of or material interference with school activities” according to the court (Essex 140). The case outlined two important aspects: Students in public school do not “shed their const ...
... culminating in a US led invasion of Haiti. The US government has played a large, and at times indefensible, role in the events that took place and they were backed by groups such as the CIA, the Pentagon and US backed international aid organizations like USAID. Presidents George Bush and Bill Clinton both focussed constantly upon short range goals such as winning the election in 1993 and they were willing to sacrifice long term interests in the pursuit of these goals. The US would be far better served by a democratic, stable and prosperous Haiti than one that is mired in civil unrest and abject poverty. This was not the first time the US had attempted to impress its ...
... working on the railroads at age 14, and in 1893, at age 38, he founded the American Railway Union. The union dissolved after a violent strike in 1894.

Despite persecution for his political beliefs, Debs ran as the Socialist candidate for president five times. He collected 6 percent of the vote in 1912. The socialist doctrine demands state ownership and control of the fundamental means of production and distribution of wealth, to be achieved by reconstruction of the existing capitalist or other political system of a country through peace ...
... were exploiting the colonies by demanding that the colonies import more from England then they exported to the colonies. They were importing raw materials from the colonies and making them into exportable goods in England. They would then ship these goods to foreign markets all around the world including the colonies(America Online ). Throughout the seventeenth century the English saw America as a place to get materials they didn't have at home and a market to sell finished products at after the goods had been manufactured. This was detrimental to the colonies because it prevented them from manufacturing any of the raw materials they produced and made them more d ...
... if it was to sell false indulgences to the people or to make the churches so beautiful that people would have to pay in order to get in. The popes were also more concerned about being political leaders rather than priests or religious leaders. They wanted to be more involved in the government because they thought that if they had power people would follow their religion and maybe they could use that power to force people to practice under their religion. These were the first reasons for . After this there were many more events that led to the first breaking of the Roman Catholic churches. The first breaking of the churches occurred in Germany.

... 70,000 foot high mountain at the center of their map. In the Muslim faith, the Ka'bah in Mecca was the highest point on earth and the polestar showed the city of Mecca to be opposite the center of the sky. As one can clearly see, many maps, had different centers. Each map had a different center, each based on a different religion. Many years before the birth of Jesus Christ, the Greeks theorized that the earth was a globe. But after that, there was a period in history called "The Great Interruption." This period was categorized by a complete silence where people in general, forgot about the issue of whether the earth was flat or whether it was a globe. ...
... never got “40 acres and a mule” talked about by Thaddeus Stevens and other radicals. The plantations owned by 70,000 “chief rebels” were never seized and redistributed. Instead, sharecropping and tenant farming developed and, as a result, blacks were still tied to the land. In addition, the Southern economy had not escaped from control by Northern financiers, as evidenced by the high interest rates. Because of these rates, the small farmers became subject to the creditors and lacked economic freedom. Finally, many stubborn Southerners refused to accept tax programs which would provide funds for the social services needed to rebuild their economy after t ...
... not stop the Yugoslav Federation, people hoped it would at least continue peacefully. Unfortunately this was not to be, the horrific nature of the Yugoslav conflict threatened Europe as a whole, and as a consequence domestic and political and social climate deteriorated rapidly. In Eastern Europe the replacement of communism did not produce a swift and painless transition which was expected. In fact some of the Eastern countries found the Western way so hard it sent them back to communism. Yeltzin’s Russia also began to gain power and raise western fears. All this raised issues in the west. The disarmament process slowed down and attempts to devise some f ...
