On March 25, 1911, a Saturday afternoon, near closing time, a fire broke out in the Triangle Waist Company, on one of the top 3 floors of the ten story Asch Building. Within thirty minutes, 146 lives were lost, because of neglected safety features and locked doors. The fire is believed to have started by the careless use of a match from one of the cutters to get a smoke. Before ringing the fire alarm, the workers tried to extinguish the flames, but the flames quickly spread. It was the shirtwaists, hanging on lines about the workers, the sewing machines placed closely together, and the trimmings of cuttings and rags with littered the floors that spread the fire so quickly.

World War Two started with the prime minister of Britain declaring war on Germany in September 3rd, 1939. However, the United States did not enter the war until December 8th 1941, when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. From then on, the United States contributed greatly to the battles against the Axis powers. Their involvement in the invasion in North Africa as well their leadership shown in Operation Overlord contributed greatly to the war by pushing the Axis forces further back and ultimately leading to the triumph over the notorious Hitler. While the United States was known for using extreme force and clever war strategies to end the war, they attributed greatly to the war through diplomatic means as well, such as the creation of strong bonds between them Latin

risitics we talked about as a class. One example is dedicated. Bob was dedicated because he never gave up after a fire. His mindset was “never a fire too big.” He worked until he felt it was time to hang up his helmet for good. After the enormous Plasimet fire, he could have quit/retired because he had many injuries. But after that fire he kept on going. One other characteristic is fearless. He wasn’t described as a “wuss”, he fought through every fire. He gave it all, everyday at work. Bob Shaw wasn’t a person to “run away” from a fire. If there was a person in need, even though there was a risk of death he would still risk his life for the sake of

It is easy to think that the tank mobilized World War I first, but in all reality the flamethrower caused a significant amount of mobilization. When a soldier sees or feels a large cloud of flame coming at them rapidly, they will end up moving no matter what their orders are. Due to the dangers of flamethrowers the front lines started moving. There is a lot to the history of this weapon and the first time it was used was an extreme shocker, not only that, but the damages from it was so horrendous. These vary from physical damages to mental damages. After World War I the flamethrower went through some changes and evolved for the next war. Also the differences from country to country when it comes to this weapon is quite interesting. By today

Has there ever been a point in your life that you wished you could be a superhero or superhuman? Most, if not all, people’s answer to that question would be a resounding “yes,” including mine. Over the years, more TV shows and movies have begun to incorporate what we would consider to be our “heroes” into them. These shows, or movies, consist of a hero, or heroes, that are typically aided by friends and a team that help them fight evil; two examples of this are Arrow and The Flash. Hero shows, or movies, can be a quite broad category, but it can be broken into smaller categories like superhuman heroes, mortal heroes, dark heroes, or otherworldly heroes. The Flash is a superhuman hero while Green Arrow is a mortal, but dark hero. The two
