.... woman to catholic religion. But still he was feeling worse and worse with time. Long years have passed since “Little Boy” tore up Hiroshima. Father Kleinsorge was feeling very bad, but not bad enough to keep him away from God. He taught religion to kids and adults while suffering from a high fever, diarrhea, and a variety of other disorders. About 35 years after the explosion, Father Wilhelm died. But his family goes on telling the story. The bomb affected Father in a big way. The biggest reason is the bomb was his death. It also caused him to live the end of his life I pain, although he would not admit to it. In fact he gave o .....

.... the Grandfather Clause. Also when some blacks went to vote, people simply wouldn't let them register. Due to lack of voting ability, no blacks were elected into office and therefore, blacks had no say in the government. Also, blacks were not allowed to serve on juries, yet they were almost always found guilty in court, even if the evidence was clearly against them. For example, years ago a boy in Georgia broke into a school to steal an ice cream. While he should have gotten a few hours of community service, he got three years in jail just because he was black. A truth to the Kerner Commission report that occurs today is that bla .....

.... fought over a question of states’ rights, among other things, and the states’ rights interpretation had actually lost and was, to a degree, a casualty of the wartime period. Further, that casualty was swiftly hammered into its coffin by three amendments which were enacted in 1865, 1868 and 1870 – the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. The Fourteenth Amendment ultimately became the heart and soul of the modern American Constitution. Most of the legal battle’s surrounding the United States Bill of Rights have been to make it a truly national document – such that states may not violate its provisions. Th .....

.... main political parties, the bleus and the rouges. In the 1860's, the leading French Canadian party was the conservative bleu party. This party, had the largest bloc of French Canadian legislative seats in parliament.1 The leader of this party at the time that confederacy was being debated by leading Canadian politicians was George Etienne Cartier. Cartier was born in 1814,2 and his grandfather had been a member of the Lower Canadian assembly in 1809.3 Prior to becoming a French leader in the move towards confederation, Cartier had been involved in the Rebellion of 1837 that was lead by Louis Joseph Papineau.4 Wh .....

.... are getting old. It is very dangerous for the old people, if there is any accident happened. Nobody can help them if the old people live alone. The elder Chinese people are not willing to spend their final years living in an old people’s home. Chinese have great respect to the old generations. They will not let their parents or grandparents live alone in another environment for the final years. They will live with the old people because they could like to look after them. This is quite important for Chinese family. Chinese believe that life goes b turn. The old people take care and raise the, when they are young. They shou .....

.... side of the ship. There were two marks on the ship's rail a measured distance apart. When the flotsam passed the forward mark, the pilot would start a quick chant, and when it passed the aft mark, the pilot would stop chanting. (The exact words to such a chant are part of a lost oral tradition of medieval navigation). The pilot would note the last syllable reached in the chant, and he had a mnemonic that would convert that syllable into a speed in miles per hour. This method would not work when the ship was moving very slowly, since the chant would run to the end before the flotsam had reached the aft mark. Speed (and distance) wa .....

.... from the poor to the rich, united to break the law. Even the police, yeah sure they will serve and protect, unless they find a better deal. The police were letting alcohol be made and sold right under their noses. The rich buy the booze to spice up their parties and the poor spend their time and money in bootleggers houses getting drunk. Rarely do the rich and the poor agree on anything. But, prohibition contributed to an increased sense of community and neighborly love. Prohibition also brought big business to the small businessman. Alcohol making used to be done by all the large companies. With prohibition the big compani .....

.... well as declare war and enter into treaties and alliances with foreign nations. With this power, Congress was able to make the look good by signing the Treaty of Paris in 1783. This treaty, signed along with Great Britain, concluded the American Revolution. By its terms, Great Britain recognized the thirteen colonies as the free and independent United States of America. However, the most important power was that Congress had the right to obtain territory and control development of the western territories, which was previously controlled by their mother country, Great Britain. (Doc D) With the , the United States was able to break .....

.... half jokingly. In Birmingham the unwritten rule towards blacks was that "if the Klan doesn't stop you, the police will."2 When King decided that the time had come to end the racial hatred, or at least end the violence, he chose to fight in a non-traditional way. Rather than giving the white people the pleasure of participating in violent confrontations, King believed if they fought without violence for their rights, they would have a faster success rate. King also saw Birmingham as the major problem in America. If Birmingham could be cracked, the direction of the entire non-violent movement in the South could take a signific .....
