.... my worrying, Otto had been secretly making plans for his family to move into the hidden apartment above the company offices. He continued to prepare the annex for over a year, until finally the Frank family had it's first encounter with a deportation scare. Otto's two daughters Margot and Anne were his pride and joy, so naturally when Margot received a deportation notice on July 5, 1942, Otto told the family of the "Secret Annex" he had been preparing for over a year. In addition to his wife Edith, Margot, and Anne, he also told me; Miep Gies. I was astounded by this plan, for it consisted of absolute seclusion from the outside world, and complete silence during busines ....

.... Ford to revolutionize the Nation or the world with his invention but he did. He had quit school at the age of 15 and by the age of 16 he had created a steam threshing machine. By the age of 17 he had moved to Detriot, intent on becoming a machinist and from there he was on his way to create the steam engine. His creation of the steam engine wasn’t excepted at first. It was able to give the power of a couple of horses, but people were not ready to accept the fact. Henry Ford realized his dream of producing an automobile that was reasonably priced, reliable, and efficient with the introduction of the model T in 1908. This vehicle initiated a new era in personal t ....

.... hard labor, for weeks or months. Auschwitz was the end of the line for millions of Jews, gypsies, Jehovah's Witnesses, and other innocents. Some spend almost two years in this most infamous of concentration camps. The average prisoner only survived eight weeks in Auschwitz. Some learned the ins and outs of survival in Auschwitz. Auschwitz was the largest concentration and extermination camp constructed in the Third Reich. Located 37 miles west of Krakow, Poland, Auschwitz was home to both the greatest number of forced laborers and deaths. The history of the camp began on April 27, 1940 when Heinrich Himmler, the head of the SS and Gestapo, ordered the construction of the ....

.... of loneliness and drinking problems. He spent the following years in unsuccessful farming and business ventures in Missouri. He moved to Galena, Illinois, in 1860 where he worked in his father’s leather shop. Grant was appointed colonel and soon afterward brigadier general of the Illinois volunteers at the outbreak of the Civil War. Grant wanted to fight for the Union. He was an officer of dogged determination and won a series of brilliant victories. On one occasion, the commander of a Confederate fort asked on what terms Grant would accept his surrender. "No terms," he replied, "except an unconditional and immediate surrender." From then on he was known as "Uncondit ....

.... nation government. "… [T]he clear effect of constitutional fragmentation has… been to limit the potential for political cooperation among people of ordinary means…" This shows how the "founding federalist" believed the common person should not be part of political actions. On one hand you have the constitution fragmenting the government. On the other hand you have the constitution separating people from the government. The goal of the authors of the constitution was to create a system of government that existed in complete political deadlock because it never allowed any part of the system to be unified. Geological characteristics also help to fragme ....

.... fascinating to hear in public and people from all over came to hear him converse about his essays. The turning point on Wilson’s life was when he made the decision to give up being things he wasn’t; a lawyer, a historian, a novelist, and peruse what he was destined to do. Wilson felt his obligation was to humanize “every process of our human life.” This dream however was shattered by war. The greatest achievement Wilson ever made was his cooperation with other nations to form the League of Nations and ultimately form the United Nations. For Wilson’s efforts, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1919. Wilson was greatly responsible for increasing US partic ....

.... when a country feels they must rebel against their suppressor, they gain a sense of nationalism and independence, resulting in a more distinct culture than before. Why then, should a country have to withdraw from such interference? Another argument could be that only when needed, should a country be involved with another’s affairs. Yet with this point of view most would agree that there would be too much diversity in opinion when deciding exactly when help is needed. Also, countries such as Japan would never have developed, whose primary success was to take the ideas of other nations and better them. Stronger countries must interfere in the affairs of weake ....

.... surrender, American leaders made a decision. This decision essentially changed the history of warfare forever. An atomic bomb is any weapon that gets its destructive power from an atom. This power comes when the matter inside of the atoms is transformed into energy. The process by which this is done is known as fission. The only two atoms suitable for fission are the uranium isotope U-235 and the plutonium isotope Pu-239. Fission occurs when a neutron, a subatomic particle with no electrical charge, strikes the nucleus of one of these isotopes and causes it to split apart. When the nucleus is split, a large amount of energy is produced, and more free neutrons are also ....
