.... took on the business of supplying food and were prepared to make more profit at any cost. Honest manufacturers were put at a competitive disadvantage and were forced to adopt the practices that could enable them to meet the prices of the less ethical competition. These practices were evident in the debasement of food, and in "patent" medicine. At the turn of the century selling goods under another name, and substituting cheaper ingredients was common practice. Over-ripe apples were cooked, doctored with chemicals, and sold as "currant" "blackberry" "plum" and other fruits. Potted chicken and turkey were common products, bu .....

.... example of bad leadership would be the Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. Iraq and Iran were at war from 1980 to 1988 the battle ended on an agreement of a cease-fire between the two nations.

.... works which he later retracted. The retracted piece's time set was early Salem, Massachusetts. The story involved a family structure much like that of Hawthorne's own family. The two siblings in the work, brother and sister, lived in deep affection, "lonely and sufficient to each other" since they alone survived an Indian attack. Mother and father having died, the sister becomes his, and throughout the work the theme of incest is heavily suggested. The events and family situations contained in the work closely mirror that of Hawthorne's family. His father died at age six, and his mother became solitary within their home soo .....

.... not speak what he thinks he could be held guilty of treason. Henry shows that he is self- confident because he is going to follow through with his beliefs. Henry knows that if he is self confident he can do anything, Henry states; “I have one lamp by which my feet are guided and that is the lamp of experience”(88). What Henry is really trying to say is, “I know of no way of judging of the future but by the past, I wish to know what there has been of the British ministry for the last ten years”(90). Henry states, “I repeat it, sir, we must fight”(90). Henry shows that the people of the congress must not be .....

.... either. It is a very spiritual ritual that occurs over a four-day period. This event is known as Eunoto. It is a very rigorous, very challenging, and almost an inhumane ceremony. Eunoto involves the slaying of a lion, the skinning of a buffalo, sexual intercourse with prepuburtal and uncircumcised young girls, the erection of a new building for each young man involved, and very often, the hysterical trance of a young man, during which he may attempt to slay himself with a spear. The young man being initiated finally ends the ritual by having his hair cut off by his mother. This very important event symbolizes the end of the m .....

.... Death of Socrates (1787; Metropolitan Mus.) as well as Lictors Bringing to Brutus the Bodies of His Sons (1789; Louvre) were themes appropriate to the political climate of the time. They secured for David vast popularity and success. David was admitted to the Académie royale in 1780 and worked as court painter to the king. As a powerful republican David, upon being elected to the revolutionary Convention, voted for the king's death and for the dissolution of the Académie royale both in France and in Rome. In his paintings of the Revolution's martyrs, especially in his Marat (1793; Brussels), his iron control is softened .....

.... Hines. By twelve years old, Nat was already playing the organ at church, amazing for such a young man only trained by his mother. Later, Nat would be enrolled in formal piano lessons, which only further add to his impressive repertoire. At fifteen years old, Nat decided to drop the "s" in his name, to become Nathaniel Adams Cole. By the age 17, Nat formed a 14-piece band, composed of students from both Wendall Philips and Dusable High schools in Chicago. The band would go around Chicago, working for as little as $2 or $3 a night. In 1936, Nat made his first recording for Decca, as part of his brother Eddie’s band .....

.... operator in the Callahan Building in Dayton. The major accomplishments of Paul Laurence Dunbar's life during 1872 to 1938 labeled him as an American poet. Dunbar had two poetic identities. He was first a Victorian poet writing in a comparatively formal style of literary English. Dunbar's other identity was that of the dialect poet, writing lighter, usually humorous or sentimental work not merely in the Negro dialect but in other varieties as well: Irish, once in German, but very frequently in the hoosier dialect of Indiana. There is good reason to assert, however, that the sources of Dunbar's dialect verse were in the real lan .....
