The Weatherman, an organization that is now known as the Weather Underground, was organized in 1969 as a faction of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) that broke with Progressive Labor. They had a specific goal which was to create a clandestine revolutionary party for the overthrow of the U.S. government. The attempts to achieve this was having campaigns of bombings on government buildings through the 1970’s and then it was taking part in actions of Timothy Leary’s jailbreak. Leary has been described as the “most dangerous man in America”. He has been arrested enough to see the inside of 29 different prisons worldwide. With some early events contrived in a three day chaos called the Days of Rage, a series of direct actions by the WUO in …show more content…
It started in 1962 when the first convention was held by SDS and they were calling for progressive alliances among activist groups. They were really busy in 1970, a year the bombing manufacturing went awry and Bernardine Dohrn, Bill Ayers and Kathy Boudin were sent into hiding.While in hiding they were not returning to the jobs and stayed out of the streets. They stayed in hiding for seven years and came out surrendering to the police in 1977. The punishment for them was two years probation and only three years of prison. After everything was cleared, Boudin became a member of a new group. The group fell between the weather underground and the Black Liberation Army and was called the May 19th Communist Organization. It’s name came from joint birthdays of Ho Chi Minh and Malcom X. There were three objectives for this alliance; 1. to free political prisoners held in American prisons, 2. to use appropriation of capitalist wealth to fund the third stage, and 3. to initiate a series of bombings and terrorist attacks. Boudin’s lifestyle was constantly being involved in law outbreaks as …show more content…
“Former Underground member Kathy Boudin and her soon-to-be husband, David Gilbert, were accomplices in the robbery of a Brinks armored car in Nyack, New York. In the course of that heist, one Brinks guard and two Nyack police officers were murdered. Also involved in the robbery was Judith Clark, who had served a prison term for her participation in the "Days of Rage." Boudin hired attorney Leonard Weinglass, a law partner of her father, to defend her in the case. Weinglass arranged for a plea bargain whereby Boudin pled guilty to one count of felony murder and robbery, in exchange for a prison sentence of twenty years to life. She was paroled in 2003, however, over strong opposition from New York State police. Gilbert remains in New York's Attica State Prison, having refused to bargain” (“Weathermen”). Also on this year Kathy Boudin resurfaces to participate in an armed robbery in Nanuet, New York through Weather Underground. Death comes upon three men and finally Boudin is sentenced for 22 years in

There are three different weather bands in each hemisphere, they are trade winds, polar easterlies, and prevailing westerlies.
The Tri-State Tornado affected Missouri, Indiana, and Illinois greatly through the 219 miles of damage. People in 1925 were unprepared due to the lack of technology in 1925. 75 years ago the tornado surprised people because they had no warning. In fact, the 1974 Oklahoma tornado outbreak, with 45 tornadoes in total, did not kill as many people as the Tri-State tornado. The difference in years is 49, that proves that the technology in 1974 was significant compared to the lack of technology in 1925. They were much more prepared for the tornados that occurred. If the tornado occurred today, the tornado would kill less people because the weather channels could see the tornado was approaching. The the wind speed of the tornado was 318 mph at it's
The Blizzard of 1978 was a disaster because it caused so many issues for more than 3 states. Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and Southwest Wisconsin were all affected by the high winds of 100 miles per hour and 40-60 inches of snow. Also, some homes’ roofs were torn apart and fell in the home. This killed more than 400 people, buried in 27 feet of snow or more. Weather stations had to readjust their weather chart due to pressures falling below the chart scale. This nearly caused a hurricane to happen. Other regions only saw over a foot of snow from the storm.
Have you ever wanted to go on the ride of your life time? Well you don't need to wait any longer. Storm Mountain is the ride you have been looking for. So what makes Storm Mountain different from any other rollercoaster? This rollercoaster is jam packed with fun, excitement, adventure, suspense and thrill. When you enter the line for Storm Mountain you will be greeted by a little bit of water falling overhead. As you make your way through the line you attention will be drawn towards a tv screen of a wether mean reporting that a huge storm is coming. You will the finally arrive at the rollercoaster carts and can choose to go in line one through ten. Once you are strapped in and ready to go the cart will begin to accelerate up the storm baring mountain. That's
Category 5 hurricanes are the highest level of impact and size a hurricane can be; therefore they can be very catastrophic and one must prepare (especially when you live in Florida). There are many ways you can prepare efficiently for a hurricane, even if you can not accurately predict when, where, or how hard it will hit.
Hermine weakened while crossing from Florida into Georgia, but still produced sustained winds of 45 mph (72 km/h) at Savannah, with gusts to 58 mph (93 km/h).[77] Farther northeast, Folly Island, South Carolina, reported sustained winds of 44 mph (71 km/h) with gusts to 59 mph (95 km/h),[78] and the pier in Duck, North Carolina, reported sustained winds of 58 mph (93 km/h) with gusts to 73 mph (117 km/h).[79] Heavy rainfall occurred through the Carolinas, reaching 10.72 in (272 mm) in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.[80] At Norfolk International Airport, wind gusts reached 43 mph (69 km/h).[81] In Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia, Hermine's passage left around 274,000 people without power.[40][42][82][83]
The NOAA is the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.They should be supported for their advance research on the changing environment today and what to expect in the future. They are different from other companies because they have access to more advanced resources used to help the sea inhabitants. With the proper funding the NOAA will be able to continue their research using technology to model possible outcomes for future events accurately. That's needed to provide time to create scientifically informed plans that will bring positive outcomes and help the ocean's inhabitants before serious problems occur.
What were my four favorite experiments in the Fox 4 weather show? I was interested in the bubbles, the cloud, the egg walk, and the liquid nitrogen rockets. The bubble experiment showed us how wind currents move. They made bubbles with two big strings and the bubbles were huge until they pooped because of hitting the net. My second favorite thing was when they made a cloud. They made this cloud out of hydrogen peroxide, dawn soap, and sodium iodine. The dawn soap and the hydrogen peroxide went in first, then the sodium iodine that’s what makes it foam up. All of these substances react together to form a “cloud”! This experiment showed us how clouds and storms for in our atmosphere. The third experiment i liked was the walking on eggs this
It is the hottest year ever. I thought it would be a lot more cooler the one hundred degrees outside. This was very dangerous for kids and elderly that is outside. So we call this the heatwave of 1995 in Chicago ILL. This caused many many problems with the people and the animals this was the worst Chicago has ever seen.
But they were far more lethal than the WUO or SLA.The BLA financed a lot of their operations though organized crime like bank robberies to get money. The BLA was a splinter cell linked to the Black panthers. They were also linked to have interacted with the terroist group the Weathermen during the 1970’s. They had a very strong organization because with so little members they still were able to cause so much damage. The FBI infiltrated the BLA by using a method called COINTELPRO which stars for counter intelligence. This program was a series of covert operations which at times was illegal. The FBI aimed at surveilling, infiltrating, discrediting, and disrupting domestics terrorist groups. The FBI use this to target and kill members of the BLA. My assessment on the group further is that the creation of the Department of Homeland Security its difficult for groups like this to sustain
It was September 15, 1963 on a church day in Birmingham, Alabama. Four young girls named Addie Mae Collins, Carole Robertson, Cynthia Wesley, and Denise McNair went to church that day but did not come home. Birmingham was nicknamed “Bombingham” because between 1947-1965 a lot bombings in churches and the streets. KKK members puts sticks of dynamite underneath
Media matter is a broadcasting guard dog that concentrates on the problems of prejudice and misinterpreted information that is putting into the American mass media (About). The non-profit making association appears to transport saneness into the mass media by guaranteeing that testified evidence is accurate and whichever misrepresentation is modified before it catches to the customers (About). This organization is consequently capable to display a preference for certain but not all politicians and partisan outfits, therefore, convict the actions (About). Weather Underground is a leftist organization that was originated on the foundation of antagonism to the Vietnam War and a proposal for black authority (Eckstein). Their party-political stimulus
Two domestic Terrorist Groups in the United States is the Black Liberation Army and the other is Antifa. The Black Liberation Army (BLA) was part of the terrorist group with a far left aims, originally part the Black Panther Party formed in 1970. The name of this group came from a line in a Bob Dylan song. The weather men were also part of the 60’s Revolutionary Youth Movement. By examining the weathermen views, and background will show that they were a domestic terrorist group. The weathermen were inspired by the civil rights movement and initially concerned with equality, economic justice, peace, and Participatory democracy. But with the rising tensions in the 60’s because of the Vietnam War peaceful protest turned into violence protest.
They take drastic measures to put fear in their enemies. Since their creation in 1987 they have been responsible for at least 557 deaths1 with a strong chance of more that were not confirmed. They are best known for their car bombings on civilians but also they have committed suicide bombings, plane bombings, and other murders. Between April 6th and March 1994 they had 1 car bombing killing eight, and three suicide bombings killing a total 72 innocent civilians.2 Even as recent as 2000 they have killed 114 civilians in bombings.
