After countless other successful designs, Brunels dream was to build the largest ship in the world that could carry enough coal for its whole journey, while also carrying 4,000 passengers. Before the construction of this mega ship, Brunel had success in previous designs such as some of the largest bridges in the world at that current time and also designed many of the railroads in England in the 1800’s. Brunels intended to double the length of the world's longest ships hull ( roughly 350 feet ). This meant Brunels ships hull was roughly 700 feet long. There was circulation around whether Brunels ship would actually be able to hold its own weight and many believed it was too heavy to float as it was carrying large amounts of coal and people.

The town of Bannack was established on July 28, 1862 due to gold strike at Grasshopper creek. The city was small and put together quickly with logs, but briefly served as the capital of Montana Territory in 1864 (Bannack, Montana, 2017). Bannack was very remote and it was only connected to the rest of the world by the Montana Trail which lead to extremely high crime rates and a low population. The miners in Bannack earned $8 a day which is equivalent to a pound of chewing tobacco and a dollar as change. In 1865, the residents relocated to more productive gold sites situated along Alder Gulch.
When one usually thinks of Gilded Age politics, one usually thinks of the dominance of the relatively new “Grand Old Party”, who won all but two presidential elections between 1860 and 1908. During this time, the Republican Party was backed largely by Northern and Midwestern corporate and business interests, which once in power, crafted largely protectionist policies such as tariffs to secure and expand American enterprises. The Democratic Party of this period, was mainly backed by the interests of immigrant groups like the Irish and Germans, in addition to the “Solid South” which sought to block many of the Republican policies toward higher tariffs and civil rights for

Like many communities in Tennessee, Briceville's founding was tied to coal mining. Originally known as Slatestone Hollow, early miners used wagons to haul coal to Knoxville until the railroad connected Knoxville and Coal Creek. In 1888, Calvin Brice, who was then the president of the Lake Erie and Western Railroad and would later serve a single term in the U.S. Senate, requested the construction of a spur connecting Slatestone Hollow with Coal Creek. Upon completion of the spur, the community was renamed in Brice's honor. Although the population of Briceville has risen and fallen since the community's founding, residents have never been short of pests. Two common pests found in the area are bed bugs and fleas.

P.E. Fun. Breana has a great deal of fun at Miller. Her favorite, however, is P.E. She loves the fact that she can play basketball, volleyball, and soccer during her free time. Of course, that’s not all. Her friends have P.E with her too, so she also admires that she can hang out with her friends.
“If we cut up beasts simply because they cannot prevent us and because we are backing our own side in the struggle for existence, it is only logical to cut up imbeciles, criminals, enemies, or capitalists for the same reasons” (Lewis, Page Unknown). When C.S Lewis wrote this in an essay on ethics, of which eugenics is a highly debated topic, eugenics was an uprising idea that many members of the intelligentsia agreed with. Eugenics is the idea of controlling human breeding, an idea that is highly controversial and typically looked down upon, but is rising in the modern era. Some groups are being forced to use in vitro fertilization to avoid disease; quite a contrast to the idea that science may be going pushing its limits, as presented in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. On the other hand, akin to Victor Frankenstein’s ideas, many groups may be amplifying the eugenics movement when they prescreen births.
At Brewton-Parker College, the campuses community is quite small. I cannot decide if it is a good thing that everyone knows each other. Because the school’s population is not quite as high as a big university, everyone knows everyone’s business. No matter what someone does, good or bad, it gets out, but for me the size in beneficial. The less people there are, the less chance I have of getting distracted. I love how small the classes are, too, because my teachers actually knows who I am. Also, when I need help with what we’re learning or I just have a simple question, I can easily ask my teacher, and he or she can help me better understand what is going on. The teachers here, at Brewton-Parker College, are kind and beyond willing to help me, no matter how long it takes; help is always there when I need it. For instance, the library has become my best friend. I like how I can go and have my own table to get a good amount of work done, and the books are such a useful resource for
As the eighteenth century drew to a close, so too did British favorability; and by the end of 1774, conflict between Britain and the colonists was seemingly inevitable. The unprecedented mass distribution of Thomas Paine’s pamphlet, Common Sense, sparked a dialogue so revolutionary that it liberated Americans, allowing them to start their government afresh, free from their ties to the British past. On the 7th of June, 1776, the Second Continental Congress motioned for independence, tasking a committee to draft a declaration of independence. James Madison, outsourced by the drafting committee, would pen a blistering indictment of King George III’s transgressions. Formally acknowledging the colonial desire for war, his Declaration of
Poor first-generation college students are underrepresented in medicine, despite their wealth of experiences giving them a unique and significant perspective into the challenges of patients. Even through tireless work and perseverance they may be only a few steps away from achieving their dreams. I am one of those students and I intend to become a physician. My interest in the ABLE Program is rooted in two main reasons. First, its focus on disadvantaged students. Second, ABLE aligns with my long-term goal of service to underserved communities across Michigan.
Pieter Brueghel was a Netherland painter whose paintings focused on humans and nature. Many of his paintings were scenes of humans, generally peasants, living life, with back dropped by beautifully detailed landscapes. Pieter was not just an extremely talented artist; his perception of humans and their environment was an amazing contribution to all art, but especially landscape painting. His painting The Harvesters is an example of his supreme skill, and shows how much his work impacted landscapes. Four contributions that can be seen in this painting are:
