.... my perception that the label of Generation X has come to be almost exclusively condescending. I consider myself an avid reader of news periodicals, Time, Newsweek, etc., which often deal with the generation gap that exists today from the point of view of older generations. It is my opinion that any time the term Generation X is mentioned in these magazines, it is done in a way that makes us all seem like apathetic Beavis and Butt-Head followers, who play too many video games and spend too much time at the mall. When reading these articles, I can't help but think about Bob Dylan, 30 years ago, singing to the parents of h .....

Italy has become a very unique and beautiful country and The Renaissance has taken a great responisibility in this beauty. High knee boots were the main shoe that was worn by men.

The body of the carriage was constructed of a light wood frame, and the wheels were .....

.... to reduce Iraq's essential oil income. By invading Kuwait, Iraq succeeded in surprising the entire world. The USA ended her policy of accommodating Saddam Hussein, which had existed since the Iran-Iraq war. Negative attitude toward Iraq was soon a worldwide phenomenon. The United Nations Security Council passed 12 resolutions condemning the invasion. The ultimate decision was to use military force if Iraq did not withdraw unconditionally by January 15, 1991. Then, when the deadline was set, it was time to start preparing for the worst-the war. President George Bush confronted little difficulty in winning Americans' support .....

.... polices to his constituents. This article proves that the Jeffersonian Republicans were strict constructionist. The Embargo Act of 1807 was meant not to win a war but to keep peace. The Embargo Act prohibited all United States ships from leaving for foreign ports to export American goods. This caused many New Englanders to become disgruntled with what the federal government had done to them. Many New Englanders felt that the government was using the constitution to attempt to control foreign commerce in an unconstitutional way. Nowhere in the constitution does it say that the government can order an embargo. Jefferson was abl .....

.... only 10,000 Confederates to defend against the 40,000 Union troops at Fredericksburg. Nevertheless, on April 30, the main body of Lee's forces marched toward Chancellorsville numbered 50,000 against 70,000. On May 1st, the Yankees were marching toward Fredericksburg, while the rebels were marching toward Chancellorsville.

Lee took advantage of this action. Hooker and his troops were badly beaten on May 2, and were in bad fighting position on the third .....

.... Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan. The division of Europe between the west and east drew physical borders which outlined that the war of misinformation that had began. Also treaties of the post war world further separated the two super powers of the world for the decades to follow. The waging of hot wars through other countries also strengthened hatred.(1) The first of the tensions arose out of W.W.II conferences between the Soviet Union, America and, Great Britain.

.... the city. We can see what happened to the second generation: children born with severe informities such as sixteen fingers and three arms; children born with cancer; and children with mental and physical handicaps. The radiation of a bomb doesn’t always cause instant death, but it is a lingering experience. Japanese people, thought to be healthy, got cancer in later life, and had dis-formed children. Consequently, we must not be swayed by advocates urging us to further develop and expand nuclear power. We must, instead, examine the larger picture; the risks associated with this potentially devastating power. The potential for hum .....

.... but it still needed to be perfected. Anthony Fokkers was the person who would improve this invention. Anthony perfected Garros system of firing through the arc of the propeller. In less than forty-eight hours, the Dutch aeronautical engineer and manufacturer of that great line of German fighter planes improved considerably on Garros Invention. Now that Fokker had this perfected, he roamed the skies virtually unopposed. Another plane that helped out in World War One was Nieuport 11 also known as “ Be'be' ” or “Baby”. The Nieuport 11 was originally designed as a racing plane to compete in the Gordon Bennett race of 1 .....
