... types of predicts. They would move into countries to get their products. Instead of having trade centers along coasts, they would set up plantations, docks, and factories in other countries.

... (Jews were to blame for all the Germany’s problems). Germany had no universal knowledge. They said that there was only a German science and a German math. And that Physics was a Jewish discipline. Germany lost some of it’s leading physicists because of this view, and even today in 1999 they have never regained their stature in science. Hitler wanted to reunite all the German people. He wanted to restore Vokdeutsch. So he took over the Rhineland and Austria. Then he stepped into Sudetenland and that’s when problems began. He said that they were German and that it should be his land. Well, Chamberlain basically gives Sudetenland to Hitler because he thought it w ...
... several disastrous encounters with women. He fell in love with the girl, but evidently did not bother to tell her. When Vincent shared his feelings with Ursula, he discovered that the thought of loving him had never entered her head. In 1875 Uncle Cent arranged for him to be transferred to the Paris office in the hope that his spirits might be revived by a change in scene. Here he became increasingly careless in his work. He was given three months notice, and then six years of training as an art dealer came to an end. He was almost twenty-three, unemployed, and had not the slightest idea what he would do next. Vincent decided to return to England, where he ...

... paper cuts and being rolled in salt, now that’s terrible and I’m sure the convi ct will never break the law again. Places like Singapore still operate like this. It happened to that one teen who decided to spraypaint some cars. He thought he could get away with it and he almost did, but he shortly found out that he had a little pay-back coming to him. The kid was caned, and he hasn’t done anything dumb since. Torture like this works, torture is a way that can really make you have second thoughts before you do anything stupid.

... too terribly upset when he caught wind of an Indian raid up in New York or Jamestown. He had his own problems, why should he distress over such distant conflicts? This attitude began to change with the coming of the war. Soldiers and statesmen from all across the colonies sat together in war strategy meetings and fought side by side in the battles and they found after talking amongst themselves that they had more in common than they had originally imagined. (1) They discovered that they were all fellow Americans who, for the most part, spoke the same language and shared the same goals and ideals. The French were a threat to all of them. They learned that they c ...
... have it all wrong. What God did was create a way for people to get to heaven. No one on this earth is free of sin. Before god sacraficed his only son, there was no way anyone could have etearnal life. If anyone sinned, when they died they would go to hell. When god sacraficed his son, his son died for our sins, now when we sin all we have to do is asked to be forgiven by God. When we become christians we create our own path to heaven, and when we die we go to heaven and live happily and eternally with god. So you see God is good, without him everyone would go to hell. Other people wonder how we can be so sure our god exists. Nothing, no religion can be totally ...
