.... records played by whites but composed by blacks. Whites were frustrated because there weren't any white artists, and they didn't want the blacks to be the stars until Bill Haley appeared with his "Rock Around the Clock". In this decade, Elvis Presley introduced a music that was sexual-suggestive, and outraged many adults of that time. In time, he changed the style of the music by adopting a country and western style and became a national hero. By the end of this decade and the start of the next, Rock n' Roll started to decline because it was formula-ridden and it was too sentimental. Teenage audiences transferred their allegiance to .....

.... human way, which is through war. However, because the memory of the words of some great US presidents was still strong in the nation's mind, the US government could not just start a war for territorial control. By doing so the US risked being labeled as a hypocrite nation, for the US itself used to be a colony. But the politicians, and the business owners did not give up their domination dreams and silently awaited an opportunity. That opportunity finally came when Spain sent troops to Cuba to stop the second Cuban war for independence. The American people sympathized the Cuban effort for independence, but at the same time owners wer .....

.... with a fellow researcher Constantine Fahlberg when they were working on a derivative of coal tar. One night, after a long day in his laboratory He we was having dinner with wife. When he was eating a regular roll. Remsen noticed that it was quite sweet at first, but it left a bitter after-taste. He made his wife taste the bread and he found nothing wrong or something unusual about the taste. So Remsen decided to taste his fingers and there he found that same sweet then bitter taste despite washing his hands thoroughly after working in his lab. After dinner, he returned to his laboratory and started to taste all the chemicals he w .....

.... question if slaves would count when calculating the population of states. The south of course wanted to count slaves, but the North refused to count them. This lead to the Three-Fifths Compromise that stated that slaves would count as 3/5 of one person. This compromises satisfied both the North and south without giving either a majority. In 1820 a north and south dispute sprang up again, this time it was about the position of new states that entered the Union, whether the new states were going to be closed or open to slavery. In 1819 Missouri applied for statehood, both north and south want Missouri, because it would give the majority to w .....

.... the up-to-the-minute technology that made rave emblematic of its era—the fragmentary, fast-forward aesthetic, the flexible production and distribution network, the avoidance of personality and narrative in favor of sensation—he comes up with a portrait of hi-tech millennium that resonates well beyond its subculture confines. There are those who might find a book to analyze music that often aims for the effect of a sledgehammer to the head a mite pretentious. Yet the radicalism of dance music lies precisely in it's "meaninglessness," which, paradoxically, requires intellectualization in order to get at its significance. This problem is .....

.... This was seen as an attempt to destroy communism in its early years and deeply resented by the Bolsheviks. The Second World War changed the situation. When Hitler launched "Operation Barbarossa", it was estimated that Russia would be defeated within weeks, months at latest. Churchill, the British prime minister, immediately provided help to Stalin. The United States joined the Allies and the impossible had become reality: capitalism and communism working hand in hand. The "Lend Lease" arrangement was extended to Russia and all in all ten million tons of war materials were sent by the US to Russia. It seems rather far-reaching to propose t .....

.... and with more reliability. At most jobs in factories required neither great strength no special skills any more. The owners thought women could do the work just as well as or better than men. In addition, they were more “docile� and “compliant�. Therefore, many women workers were hired during the progressivism era. Even though the wage was low, working hours were long and working condition was less than satisfactory, these women had no choice but to work, for they need to support their family. The tale of Rose Stokes is a good example. The factory owners were getting richer and richer, by cutting wages, and providing less comp .....

.... would be much more vulnerable. Also Russia would have been isolated from Europe by a distance. With its advancements in technology the Soviet Union was fast connecting with Europe. No more was it isolated, it became the center of attention. Had Russia not been invalid with the political struggles of Europe, its power and interest after WW2 would have declined. Even with its nuclear capabilities, Russia would have been far less likely to use such a devastating device, had the country’s political involvement declined to pre-war levels. It was the Iron curtain which brought Russia to the limelight, and it was also Roosevelt who sold th .....

.... out raiding parties to attack New England villages along the coast. The New Englanders soon heard of the mutiny at Louisbourg, so the villages decided to fight back against this threat. In 1745, 4000 New Englanders, along with the Royal Navy, launched an attack against the fortress, but Louisbourg didn’t think them of as a threat. Louisbourg thought that the New Englanders would not be able to launch a serious attack with any kind of heavy artillery, since they attacked the weak rear side, travelling over marshy, wooded areas to reach the fort. The people of Louisbourg were wrong, however, as the New Englanders did indeed manage .....

.... the main focus of their colonization. Both groups were upset of the development of the church of England, and in attempt to purify it, they sought new lives in the colonies. The development of Jamestown in Virginia was a concept similar to the ones used during the 1500s when exploration was promoted: for gold, glory, and God. Georgia was colonized as a buffer zone for the highly cherished Carolinas. For whatever the reasons, each colony flourished and, eventually, the population of all the thirteen increased as the exodus from Great Britain increased, other foreigners seeking freedom of religion or wanting new lives began to come, slave trad .....
