... Many people complained and said that the cost of building the hall could have been used on practical schemes such as sewer improvage, water supplies and other important city needs. This mind blowing amount of money encouraged many investigations and lawsuits. One affair being in which the architects name was revealed carved immediately below the ledge under the uppermost windows and it spelled out "E J LENNOX ARCHITECT A D 1898". THE BUILDING NOW Before designing the building Lennox made a tour to cities of the U.S with buildings with the same style, now city hall's resemblance to H. H. Richardosn's Pittsburgh court house in 1886 is often pointed out. ...

... the remaining oil. Unfortunately, the cleanup effort was hindered by an inadequate cleanup plan that had been created during the 1970's. These plans outlined how an oil spill would be handled, including provisions for maintaining equipment such as containment booms and "skimmer boats." The plans also called for a response team to be on twenty-four hour notice. Unfortunately, the plans were good on paper only. A spill of this size had not been anticipated. Therefore, the response teams had been demobilized, and the equipment that was supposed to be ready at all times was either too far away or nonexistent.. Precious hours were also wasted as Corporations, the Alaskan State Government ...

... to it. In actuality, the stony "Purple Haze" is about as close as they ever come to hard rock. The next song, "Manic Depression" comes in strong with the opening chords and then reveals Mitch Mitchell's trademark rolling drums. It also contains another of 's solos worth listening to by any new or Experienced fan. Chas Chandler chose the quietest song on the album to give the world its first taste of The Hendrix Experience. Its first single was "Hey Joe", a song written by turn-of-the-century bluesman Billy Roberts. The first bars of "Hey Joe" leave no doubt that it is being handled by a master. It quickly climbed the British pop charts, topping out at number 2 (behind "Lucy in the Sky wi ...

... and pushes the limits of the imagination. To give the reader a taste if what Dave Mathews’ poetry is like I’m going to give some examples over the next paragraph. The examples that precede derive from several of his albums so as to give the full spectrum of his talents. The first exert is Proudest Monkey from the album Crash, it is a song about a person who lived a very simple life but decides to make a change: Oh I am bounce around so well Branch to branch, limb to limb you see All in a day's dream I'm stuck Like the other monkeys here I am a humble monkey Sitting up in here again But then came the day I climbed out of these safe limbs Ventured away Walking tall, head high up and s ...

... to use violence to fight against the oppression. But this did not mean he would stop from voicing his opinion about the problems that were present. One example of the problems that Dr. King tried to bring to the peoples attention in an attempt to fix it was the “law” that all the African Americans could sit only at the back of the bus and not the front, something that was abolished after Rosa Louise Parks made a choice to sit in the front of the bus because of her sore feet. As a noble man, with a good education and a firm belief in the constitution, King was quick to see that the rights which were promised to all Americans was not being used fairly especially when it was referred to ...

... ships. America also tended to publish the cargo manifests so that the Allies as well as the Germans would know what is being shipped. Britain found a loophole in this. New cargo added at the last minute did not go on the original manifest, thus a supplementary manifest would be submitted 4 or 5 days later. Also, due to the embargo, munitions were listed as ‘sporting cartridges' and stamped with ‘Not liable to explode in bulk'(Simpson 63). About a week before the voyage, the New York German community tried to run an ad warning about the trans-Atlantic voyage. But the duty officer at the State department did not approve, so no ads were placed. Later George Vierick, who was in ch ...

... was enormous, it stretched twenty-two feet to the bottom. The ship was so slow and long, that it required a turning radius of about one mile. Likened to a "floating barn roof (DesJardien 2)" and not predicted to float, the only individual willing to take command of the ship was Captain Franklin Buchanan. After all the modifications were complete, the ship was rechristened the CSS Virginia, but the original name the CSS Merrimack is the preferred name. The USS Monitor was the creation of Swedish-American engineer, John Ericsson. The ship was considered small for a warship, only 172 feet long and 42 feet wide. Confederate sailors were baffled by the ship. One was quoted describing he ...

... men have for the women. Mr. Hale declares that "women are used to worrying about trifles" (958) trivializing the many tasks and details that women are responsible for. In his ignorance of how crucial their duties are in allowing a household to function smoothly, he implies their unimportance. The remark from the County Attorney about Minnie, "Not much of a housekeeper, would you say, ladies?" (958) was insensitive and unjustified. All because his hand found the sticky residue of her exploded preserves, a soiled spot on her roll towel, and some dirty pans in the kitchen. Due to the circumstances, Minnie’s mess is entirely due to her dire emotional state. These statements and others m ...

... involved in World War II. Roosevelt, Churchill, Tojo and Hitler -especially Hitler - are all candidates for the group because of their involvements in the bloodiest wars of the twentieth century. In this world,blood is a hard thing to forget about. Which ones, and in what light they'll be remembered in depends entirely on the biases of historians and the abilities of governments to cover up the embarrassing moments blemishing the memories of their leaders. So if the United States is still around and as powerful as now in five centuries - and hopefully it will - F.D Roosevelt will most likely be one of the mist breakers from the second world war because of the American people's great ...

... away supplies such as warships, food, and medicine. America was extremely supportive of the war as long as they didn’t have to get in the trenches of it. They supported the British forces by fulfilling much needed supplies. America gave the British Parliament 7 billion dollars’ worth of American accouterments in 1942. Life on board these great sea giants wasn’t so spectacular. Hundreds of sailors had to live in cramped spaces sometimes without air-conditioning or heating. As the war progressed accommodations were made radically better by being given more refrigeration spaces and spacious rooms. The American Navy had a lot of great conquests. Sunken submarines accounted for 55 percent ...
