Oppenheimer's face is completely shaded dark in both panels represented while Private Daniels features remain clear and untouched (2).

Quickly as the violent information of this amazing experiment had spread around, a scientist named Robert Oppenheimer had declared “ That's impossible,” “The U Business is unbelievable,” Like most scientists, Oppenheimer was excited as this meant some new possibilities to come forth. Not ever having a single thought of making weapons of mass destruction, he now realized this could be very dangerous if put in the

On the night of November 9th,1938 Jewish homes, hospitals, schools, synagogues and businesses were ransacked by SA paramilitary forces and Nationalist Socialist party supporters to send an unambiguous message that the Jews had no home in Germany. Contrary to what the Nazi party had anticipated, the public response to Kristallnacht was generally shock rather than enthusiasm for the mass demonstration of violence toward the Jews of Germany [I think you should cite this – where did you find this?]

Hard work and intelligence were a huge part of the outliers’ stories, but so was their childhood home, birthdate, and social status. One such story that Gladwell (2008) presents

What exactly is an Outlier? Malcolm Gladwell explains to his readers in "Outliers" that an Outlier are "men and women who do things out of the ordinary."

When asked what was wrong Oppenheimer replied, “I just keep thinking about all those poor little people” (Monk 461). The aftermath was not completely celebration

The American political system is based on democratic principles that use the voice of the people to decide what policies it will and will not act. Except our government is not a direct democracy instead it is a republic which means that the people vote on representative who they feel best represent their best interest to go and speak on their behalf at the capital. The problem that can arise when you are using this system is that sometimes the people we put in charge go against what the general population

numbers need to be well-planned, administered, and documented. There are benefits to observing this approach. The network will be easily managed, maintained, troubleshooting narrowed and isolated to the location, and the network will be scalable (Oppenheimer, p. 169, 2011). Many organizations and companies ignore the importance of planning and administering a structured model approach to network layer addressing. Many problems result from such disorganization: there are duplicate network addresses;

Race for Nuclear Arms and Power Harry Truman (1884-1972) was the most influential person in the race for the super bomb. As President Roosevelt’s Vice President, he knew nothing about the development of the atomic bomb. But within months of assuming the office of President of the United States on April 12, 1945, he became the first and only American leader to authorize the use of atomic weapons against an enemy target.

Joshua Oppenheimer courageously travels to Indonesia to film the many dangerous men and women involved in the murder of their countrymen. The film observes the depravity of man, and how a lack of empathy towards others results in the ability to commit heinous evil as if natural. The film captures this through performative re-enactments and interviews of past crimes, in an effort
