During the 1780s, I spoke out against the idea of expanding the power of the national government, I was viewed as the leader of the anti-federalists. In 1787, I was elected, along with John Lansing, Jr. and Alexander Hamilton to represent New York at the Philadelphia convention, the goal of this convention being to revise the Articles of Confederation. Both I and Lansing soon left the convention as we felt the real purpose of the convention was to produce a new form of government, not to revise the articles of confederation. Soon after this I wrote a letter to Governor Clinton, the governor of New York. In this letter I gave explicit reasons for my departure from the convention and informed him of my strong opposition to the constitution. I am most famous for writing many essays, under the pseudonym of Brutus, in which I argued federalist ideologies; I began each of my essays opposing these views by addressing these essays to the citizens of New

The literature and material that has arisen because of Steve Bartman’s life does little to tell of who he is. Bartman repeatedly declined to speak, even when it would be lucrative for himself. The infamous Steve Bartman incident occurred on October 14, 2003 with the Chicago Cubs and Florida Marlins at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois. He almost caught a foul ball that controversially might have been caught by outfielder Moisés Alou and turned the tide of the game they lost 8-3. The outpouring of blame and thrown objects forced Bartman, an avid Cubs fan, to leave, and even to sequester himself in his house for protection. This has raised issues related to

The builder of this seventeen room Greek revival mansion was Stephen S. Speakman. In the early 1840s, the elderly Speakman fell in love with a much younger woman, Sarah Bush, whose father owned a slave-holding plantation in Kentucky. Upon asking her hand in marriage, his bride-to-be refused to marry him unless he built her a southern plantation-style mansion.

In Sumter County, where Andersonville is located, Camp Sumter was operated by Major Henry Wirz known as the superintendent of the prison from February 1864 to May 1865.

More Union soldiers were continually coming to the prison. Many Union soldiers died due to the lack of wellness

Dr. Harold Shipman's weapon of choice would be a lethal amount of Heroine. (Gunn, 2010). At first, I was confused as to whether the syringe was the murder weapon of choice but the syringe is not what killed the victims, it was the drug in the syringe. What allowed him to go so long without being detected is a mixture of several different factors. Because so many people in the community respected him as a doctor they didn't question his methods when he told them that they needed an injection. He was very popular with patients and would attend to a patient's needs immediately. He also visited the patients at their residence. This ensured him the privacy that he needed to do whatever he felt necessary with them. Another reason is that because

Robert Adam (1728–92) was one of the most important British architects working in the Neo-classical style and was a main force in the development of a unified style that extended beyond architecture and interiors to include both the fixed and moveable objects in a room.

Bertrand-Jean Redon also know as Odilon Redon was a lithographic print maker. He was a highly respected member of the symbolist movement. He created 166 lithographs between 1879 and 1899. His lithographic prints and some of his other work during this time explored the different shades of black. His work inspired many other symbolists of this time. Odilon said his work explored two themes of art, the relationship between Man and Nature, and 'suggestive' art. His work used nature, imagination, dreams, and memory. He tried to get the feeling of the mysteriousness of nature when doing his work. His work seemed so dark because he was very depressed after his first son died. He chose to do the lithographic prints because he saw it as
