.... Green he struck upon an idea that would revolutionize the steam engine. This idea was "that in order to make the best use of the steam it was necessary that first, that the cylinder should always remain as hot as the steam which entered it; secondly that when the steam was condensed, the water of which it is composed, and injection itself, should be cooled down to a 100 degrees, or lower where it is possible." This method did not work at first, but in 1765 he discovered "that if a communication were opened between a cylinder containing steam and another vessel, which was exhausted of air and other fluids, the steam, as an elastic fluid would immediately rush in ....

.... extend our capacities for perceiving relationships in the perceptual domain to the conceiving of relationships in the conceptual domain. A criticism is an analysis or finding a fault of something. Together, the two definitions compose a metaphoric criticism. There are four steps to using metaphors as a unit of analysis; Formulating a research question and selecting an artifact, selecting a unit of analysis, analyzing the artifact, and writing the critical essay. In applying the theories of metaphoric criticism, I will focus on two metaphors used throughout the “Cross of Gold” speech. The first use of metaphors is to convey violent acts to show the wrongfulness in ....

.... it being a slave or free state could debate the situation and work out a decision that they all agreed on. Even though this would take a long period of time all the population would be happy with the decision. The 36-30 degree parallel was unfair because that was the only land up for slavery. What if someone wanted to move above the 36-30 degree parallel? Would they have to leave their slaves behind and hire workers? Also the federal government just marked off land that slaves could be in. Slaves are considered property and you can take property anywhere. That is unfair because then they would have to leaves all their slaves behind. Lastly people needed slaves to ....

.... baggy pants, shirts three sizes larger than needed, and large gold necklaces as well as a multitude of useless rings. Coincidentally, or not, Rappers also dress this way. For these reasons, Limp Bizkit is a Rap band and not a Heavy Metal band. Limp Bizkit is Rap and not Heavy Metal because their music and vocal style is that of Rap. They, Limp Bizkit, use Rap Turn-Tables and synthesizers to aid their mindless and annoying "ado do cha" beat. They sing and talk with an ebonic slur, as they shake their bodies erratically, making criss-cross motions with their hands, and raising each foot in turn while crouching. All this can be seen being performed by a common Rap f ....

.... the “gangster” words are now used in every day speech such as enforcer, the man who does al the “dirty work”; knock off and take care of ,both meaning to kill; and doing hard time, which is being behind bars or in prison. These words have become commonplace. It is also possible that they were commonplace and “the Mob” sort of took them as their own. There are also saying used by gangsters to explain things. If a man steals a large sum of money and is questioned by the police, he will tell them that he won big playing craps in Vegas. The police are obviously natural enemies of the Wiseguys, gangsters. They are always trying to make the big arrest, but the wis ....

.... same period of time. Once White America became aware that blacks could not only vote, but vote effectively, many began to dread the unthinkable; that the black man was becoming equal to the white man. Many went beyond fear, resorting to violence and fascism to cope with their problems. Christmas Eve of 1865 in Pulaski, Tennessee, six men young men began the earliest version of the Ku Klux Klan. Some of them had simpler professions such as blacksmithing and farming, however some of them were Confederate army officers. The group needed a name, which was then based on the Greek word "kuklos" meaning circle. The circle was chosen for it symbolizes unity, perfection and the pro ....

.... for the chaos and torment that awaited them on their beach arrivals. The attacks on the Utah and Omaha beaches were strategically made, and carried out in careful preciseness. The Allied invasion of Nazi-occupied France began on June 6, 1944, and the American assault on the Utah and Omaha on this day played a critical role in the overall success of the Normandy operation. An extensive plan was established for the American attack on Utah and Omaha Beaches, in addition to all of the other Normandy beaches. (See Appendix A) The plan was so in-depth and complex, its descriptions detailed the exact arrivals of troops, armour, and other equipment needed for the invasion, and wher ....

.... This means America fought the war, but never felt the effects of it for themselves. Roosevelt was not national in his thinking and so the European nations wanted revenge, this is when Stalin came into control. The first atomic bomb was dropped by the United States on Japan in 1945. This caused fear among Russians and so nuclear weapons became the new technology, Russians wanting to be able to defend themselves. The Berlin Wall went up. Russians controlled West Berlin, Britain controlled the northwest, America controlled the southwest. Two atomic bombs were dropped in total, both on August 6, 1945. The Cold War did not fully end until the destruction of the Berlin Wall ....
