Whether you were in a trench, getting trench foot, or on the battlefield trying to defend against fast moving tanks and artillery, fighting in either World War was not a pleasant experience. In the World Wars, enemies used many different tactics to break each other, with the goal of winning in mind. World War I consisted of a long, drawn out trench war, with many battles ending in stalemate, up until the Germans ran out of morale to continue fighting the war, and surrendered. In World War II,…

Baby potty training is one of those milestones in your child's life - it can be an incredible bonding experience between the child and his / her parents.

Once potty trained, your baby will be responsible for taking themselves to the potty to do their business. The Right Baby Potty Training Age Decades ago in the 1960's, 80% of…

Education, the process of receiving or giving systematic instruction, is one if not the most important aspect in an individual’s lifetime. When an individual is born, whether it be a boy or a girl, the child is not born evil or with a desire to perform malicious acts. Instead, as the child continues to grow and develop, his surroundings and background will slowly educate the child into what is good and what is bad. However, despite the environment a child grew up in, the one factor an individual…

brother, who was 11 and I was 13, used to love to go to the fair. And it was about seven miles from home and we would ride our bicycles over there. And it cost twenty-five cents to get in and that was too much money so we’d crawl under the fence in a ditch and get into the place. We’d go everyday, couple times a day. One reason we went was to pitch dimes. They don’t do that anymore but they had a booth where they had these crystal looking plates, with the serrated edges, set on this platform and…

The responses of the Muslims and the Christians were very different in how they dealt with The Black Death. Mainly how the Muslims responded was they thought that they now needed to be saved or cleansed, and the Christians were worried about the pope because they had thought for all their life that he could fix these type of things when in reality he couldn’t. So both society groups or religions were panicking just in different ways. The Black Death had two other names the Great Pestilence, and…

It was a great day. I got to spend time with my brother that I only got to see about 4 times a year, if I was lucky. It was the same deal with my grandparents before they moved up here. I had spent all day just hanging out and occasionally leaving to go to the mall or something. Back then, it was the epitome of a good day. That was until about 5 or 6 when we had to embark on about a 5-hour drive home. With me being a lot younger than I am now, those goodbyes were always rough knowing that I…

Law 48 says if a creditor lends someone money for crops and a storm comes and washes all the crops away the creditor doesn’t get its money back. This isn’t fair to the creditor because you lose money. Laws 53 and 54 state if you have an irrigation ditch and you ruin someone's field you have to pay them back. This is the same as the other law but one is better than the other because you get paid (Doc D). Altogether these laws are not just because they're not realistic. There not realistic because…

He explains things he saw, that were the worst things one could ever imagine. Such as when he saw the truck full of children and babies being brought to the fire pit. “Not far from us, flames, huge flames, were rising from a ditch. Something was being burned there. A truck drew close and unloaded its hold: small children. Babies! Yes, I did see this, with my own eyes… children thrown into the flames,” (Elie Wiesel, 32). This helps further the argument, if whether or not, Elie…

pain in his chest. The rod was ripped out of his hands and he could see it fly into the water as he fell onto the deck of the boat. Holding his chest he dragged himself across the cold deck of the boat and reached into his bag of supplies. In a last ditch effort for help he fired a flare into the air. He watched as the vibrant red light shot up into the sky, leaving a trail of smoke in its path only to see it engulfed by the clouds. In defeat he leaned his head back against the side and looked…

The Holocaust is known widely around for its grotesque nature and dehumanizing effects it had on its victims,this type of Genocide has happened repeatedly throughout history even after this atrocity and for these reasons we have to make sure we never forget it. Hopefully through memory we can make sure no one forgets and that no one commits acts like this ever again. The Grotesque nature of the Holocaust is what makes it one of the most terrible acts of genocide in human history,the Germans…
