the Flash and Professor Zoom. These two characters are both very important to all of the Flash story lines. The Flash is heard to be just as fast or faster then superman. The Flash appears many times even in different comic book such as the Justice league. Professor Zoom also shows up in other comics so he can fight the Flash. The first paragraph will talk about the flash, his powers, how he got them, and his life, then in the second paragraph Professor Zoom, his powers, how he got them, and his…
Though World War I has been over for seven years, I believe this article contains important details about global consequences of World War I. As we are still struggling from the aftermath, I’d like to bring up a crucial consequence of World War I. World War I and the influenza pandemic took around 56 million lives, or three percent of the entire population in 1910 (Dunn and Mitchell, 731). These deaths should not be forgotten, they are a lost generation, the generation where almost all of us…

Mustard Gas, in World War I, was called the King of Battle Gases because it caused more battle causalities, as in injuries that took them out of the war and some deaths, than all of the other chemical agents used in that Great War (Everts, n.d.). This synthetic agent had an innocent beginning but rapidly became something the world rallied around to ban due to its harmful effects. In 1886 Victor Meyer first discovered the harmful effects of (ClCH2CH2)2S or what would later become known as Mustard…
Major Battles 1914, 38 million joined, 17 million killed, 20 million wounded. World War 1 was the beginning of serious conflicts between massive countries. Not only were the country’s involved fighting for their own rights as a whole but most importantly they were fighting for justice against their enemies. Conflict is another word for battles, ¨About two-thirds of military deaths in World War 1 were in battle¨. This war has affected countries in an economic and population aspect and has been…
majority rule government. In 1918 Woodrow Wilson, the American president distributed his Fourteen Points which required a just peace taking into account the privileges of self determination of all countries and the setting up of a worldwide body, the League of Nations, to settle clashes. A empire? The United States extended its boondocks in North America all through the eighteenth century and after triumph over Spain in 1898 turned into an oceanic power whose domain extended as far west as the…
Reading this document “World War I and the League of Nations”, I have captured Wilson’s principal purpose in deliverance was to present a practical choice both to the traditional notion of an international balance of power gained by alliances among nations. As President of the United States, Woodrow could pass some very important legislations on those and many other issues, pledging to keep America out of World War I. Though he proposed to keep America out of World War I, Once Wilson knew that…
ethical trap of “ethical relativism” when he acted on his own beliefs and values to prevent German influence in the area and “improve” Haiti, which in reality caused great unrest (BCEE, 2014d). Wilson’s hypocrisy became glaringly evident when he advocated for world peace at the Paris Peace Conference and in the same time frame nearly 3,000 Haitian peasants were being slaughtered as they rebelled against the pro-American Haitian President and U.S. presence. Wilson’s critical thinking was…

The 100th episode happens to air right in the middle of the CW 4-way superhero crossover, which is the channel Arrow airs on.

Since the fans of all these show love crossovers. The CW decide to do a 4-way crossover. The crossover is…
World war ll is the most over mediatized and talked about war in recent history. Anyone cannot go five feet without running into some time of American war hero where the hero goes to foil the evil and malicious germans plan ( like Captain America, Superman, or any old propaganda poster), or in today's media, for where ever someone tries to convey how someone is horrible that person tends to compare them to the man who most of the world identifies him as bad. World War 2 was a turning point for…
