.... Bolshivik, or October, Revolution. The immediate cause of the February Revolution of 1917 was the collapse of the tsarist system under the lots of pressure of World War I. The main cause was the backward economic condition of the country, which made it hard to have a war against the powerful Germany. russian manpower was virtually hard to fight. Russian industry, however, lacked the capacity to arm, equip, and supply the the 15 million men who were sent into the war. Factories were few and not enough productive, and the railroad network was’ nt what they needed. Repeated movements, moreover, disrupted industrial and agricultural production. The food supply waz lowered, a ....

.... amassed legions of fans, and sold out stadiums around the world. There is a reason for the extraordinary success of Kiss. It has something to do with their music, but it has more to do with the way they are hyped and packaged. So lets unwrap that package. In 1972, Gene Simmons was a sixth grade school teacher in New York City. With guitarist Paul Stanley, he formed a band called Wicked Lester that played in small clubs and bars around New York. That band quickly failed. "Wicked Lester just wasn't the deadly rock n' roll assault squad they had always wanted" (Kitts 12). But Simmons and Stanley felt they could and would become stars. They invested in some large equ ....

.... city of Clermont-Ferrand. He preached to these people and told them that action needed to be taken. In response, the people cheered and planned their attack. Urban II brought together all of the bishops and urged them to talk to their friends and fellow villagers and to encourage them to participate in the crusades. Small groups started to form and each group would be self- directing. All the groups planned their own ways to the Constantinople, where they would meet and regroup.

.... came to power. Hitler’s anti-Jew campaign began soon afterward, with the "Nuremberg Laws", which defined the meaning of being Jewish based on ancestry. These laws also forced segregation between Jews and the rest of the public. It was only a dim indication of what the future held for European Jews. Anti-Jewish aggression continued for years after the passing of the Nuremberg Laws. One of these was the "Aryanization" of Jewish property and business. Jews were progressively forced out of the economy of Germany, their assets turned over to the government and the German public. Other forms of degradation were pogroms, or organized demonstrations against Jews. The first, and ....

.... distort the realities of history as often as they magnify elements of truth. These lenses develop as a result of the normal processes of story telling, both oral and written, passed down from generation to generation. The images these lenses project however, can be focused on certain aspects of that history by political organizations with agendas to cover. Therefore, in an examination of the "famine", one must begin with the facts. Once the facts have been revealed, one may move to explore the truth (or falsity) of the history which developed around the circumstances. This information can lead to a sound judgment in this scenario. The world was lead to believe t ....

.... intrigue of Gumb with moths is particularly worth noting, since there is very little evidence of prior criminals being documented as having used this sort of post mortem decoration, yet the logic of the idea is impeccable. Starling is the protagonist in the book, and the majority of the story line takes place from her point of view. She is driven by memories of her childhood, which is a recurring theme throughout the book. Most of these are in the form of flashbulb memories, a recollection of an event so powerful that the recollection is highly vivid and richly detailed, as if it were preserved on film (Brown & Kulik, 1977). She draws upon these memories for courage, and ....

.... the bombing of Cuba by what appeared to be defecting Cuban air force pilots. At 6 a.m. in the morning of that Saturday, three Cuban military bases were bombed by B-26 bombers. The airfields at Camp Libertad, San Antonio de los Ba¤os 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.
