[History 202-V] [Submission Date]

The concept of white supremacy governed racial relations in the United States during the antebellum period and as a result, black persons remained subject to an inferior status on which the whites grounded the slave system.

Still, unlike in the years of slavery, African Americans could finally fight and claim the same privileges enjoyed by their white counterparts. The problem was while some blacks entertained ...

Apparently, the ability to investigate crimes has improved dramatically over the years with advances in information and ...

During the sixties, the civil right movement has spread, throughout United States, recognizing awareness everywhere in the world, as the Black Americans’ socio-political and economic revolt against the white treatment.

Georges Melies’ 1902 silent film Voyage to the Moon advances Jules Verne’ ...

Introduction

While this crime has happened decades ago, it still haunts the minds of investigators, experts, and historians. The assassination of John F. Kennedy is one of the mysteries that has remained unraveled until these days. Myriads of conspiracy theories linking together the CIA, FBI, KGB, Cuba, and Lyndon B. Johnson, were the result of, as experts admitted, an ambiguous and negligent official report. The assassination of JFK was particularly sudden and shocking for the American people, which required a close and meticulous examination. On November, 1963 President of the U.S. Lyndon B. Johnson has created a special commission for ...

Firearms have been used in committing crimes for centuries. It was not until the 1990’s that firearms and bullets could be connected to one another. Every time a gun fires it leaves an imprint that is identifiable. Each firearm has its own unique print that can be used to determine if a bullet was fired from that same weapon. Firearm ballistics and examination has been used in determining criminal cases for many years now. One case that was solved by firearm ballistics was in 2001. The case had been cold for over 40 years, and because of the ...

Carbon monoxide poisoning is a potentially fatal condition that results from a person inhaling, or absorbing through other means carbon monoxide gas.

Given the increasing globalization of the film industry, Hollywood directors have begun to pull increasingly from international sources for their creative output. Looking into the small-but-potent international film markets, often directors from other countries are given the opportunity to cross-over into Hollywood. This is certainly the case with Asian cinema; many Asian film directors who have achieved success in Japan and Hong Kong have been given the chance to make films in America in order to provide a rapidly-consuming film market with the variety and quality it desires. In the 1980s and 1990s, two Asian directors in particular crossed over ...

Body Armour Thesis:Texts for: Introduction, Rationale, Conclusion

Body Armour Thesis

Body armour has traditionally been designed with the principal purpose ofto provide providing protection for the wearer against sharp objects and ballistic threats. A ballistic ballistic-resistant fabric stops projectile penetration by reducing energy transfer to the body upon impact, i.e. the fabric flattens the bullet and diffuses its energy [1]. On the other hand, stab stab-resistant fabric should resist pointed/sharp object penetration and slash. However, the point surface of a knife tip, ice pick or syringe needle is much smaller than that of a bullet and remains the same size as it passes through a fabric. In fact, currently ...
