Computers technology has changed for the better in my lifetime. I remember when computers only in houses and not even everybody owned one. Now we have laptops and other computer devices. Some are even small enough to fit in your pocket. For example most smart phones can do the same stuff as personal home computers. Everything has basically become smaller and faster. As for my mothers generation of computers they where hard to come by. Unlike today where there are about 10 computers in the library. During this time you were lucky if the library had 2 or 3 computers.

Totalitarianism is like rules and regulations of private and public behavior. Its basically like laws in a state. Joseph Stalin was a Strong believer in Totalitarianism. As you may or may not know Joseph Stalin ruled over the U.S.S.R for many years, 24 to be correct. Stalin rained as their ruler from 1929 to 1953. He was in charge of the U.S.S.R policies darning the beginning of the cold war. On December 21, 1879 he adopted the name Stalin, which means "Man of Steel." To some people Joseph Stalin is known as a great ruler. But to others he is known as one of the most powerful and murderous dictators to ever live. This was because his rain of terror caused over a million deaths in Soviet Union.

Film Lesson: Doctor Zhivago

2008-01-10T10:18:00.000-08:00

The movie Doctor Zhivago is about the Russia Revolution. As some may know Russia was in the middle of WWI when there revolution occured. This was the perfect time for there people to have there revolution in many ways. The main reason was because there army was tired of fighting the war. At one point some Russia soilders packed up there stuff and started to sneak home. This is when the Russian Revolution really started to heat up.

Causes of WWI

2008-01-04T10:20:00.000-08:00

World War 1 was one of the greatest wars ever. As you may know this war was once called "The Great War." But that changed when WWII came about. WWI started in 1914 and went on through to 1918. As I said before WWI was known one of the greastest wars. This was manly because so many people died. Also because so many different countries came togather and fought each other.
This all started when power started to be exchanged to much in the Entente Powers. This started contrverse between both the Entente and Central Powers. The Entente Powers were the following countries France, Russia, The British Empire, Italy, United States. The Central Powers were the following countries Austro-Hungarian, German, and Ottoman Empire. Even though Russia had there Revolution and had to withdraw from the war, The Entente Powers still crushed the Central Powers.

The Opium Wars

2007-12-11T16:29:00.000-08:00

The Opium Wars. I found this to be one of the funniest times in history. Because no matter where you go everybody says "don't do drugs" or "drugs are bad for you." But yet the British were one of the biggest drug traders and smugglers since Frank Lucas. The British traded Opium witch is a narcotic that can be smoked or injected like Heroin. They traded it for millions of pounds of tea.
Back to the wars. The Opium Wars started when Britain refused to stop trade Opium to China. The Chinese Emperor was very angry with this because Opium was forbidden in Britain but they let it go in other countries very quickly. Over 12 million Chinese people were addicted to Opium. So China declared war on Britain. But they lost because of China's lack of technology and old boats. The seconded war was in 1856. This war acceded because the term of the Treaty of Tientsin. Britain and France defeated China yet again.

"The White Man's Burden"

2007-12-11T15:54:00.000-08:00

This poem is about many things. But manly the Burden or Troubles that the white man has. This poem was written in 1899. It was originally written for Queen Victoria. Personally I think the White man's greatest Burden is minorities. But that's just my opinion.
This poem was based off of US imperialism. This poem was very confusing but from what i do get it seems like the white man's burden is his self. I say this because there is so much self-fishiness and corruption in the governments mind that the white man is his own burden. I use the government when I say this because the government was back then and still is predominately white. The are to busy thinking of them self to think about others and the big picture so they put pressure and force on there self's and there kids. That's my look and opinion on "The White Man's Burden."

The Scramble for Africa

2007-12-10T10:29:00.000-08:00

The Scramble for Africa begin when France moved into Tunis with Bismarck's encouragement. It all started in 1881. After years of abandonment the Europeans finally started to notice Africa. I don't personally think this was a good thing considering the slave trade. But for Europe it was wonderful in many ways. Europe quickly grabbed up Africa's land. This was the Scramble for Africa. Its called this because different parts of Europe rushed to get power over African valleys and land. Some parts of Europe such as France and Briton. Personally I'm surprised that it took the Europeans so long to notice how variable Africa's land is.

Film Lesson: "Mountains of the Moon"

2007-12-03T10:34:00.000-08:00

I recently watched the film "Mountains of the Moon". This movie was based off of the Europeans trip to Africa. They went to Africa twice. The first time was not pretty. The Europeans were attacked before they could get any were. Many where killed. To survived but they were both hurt servilely. One got a spare right threw his mouth. The other one was tied down and stabbed in his arms and legs. He could Berle walk or even stand.
When the Europeans escaped and got back to Europe I'm guessing they didn't learn there lesson. About two years later they returned to Africa to continue what they started. When they got to Africa they had more guns, food, money, etc. After they got a crew together and a translator the Europeans went on there journey. They soon bombed into the tribe that attached them. The Europeans quickly showed them they fabric that fabric saved there life.
Well that's how far i got in the movie. As far as my personal nolige the Africans were poor and didnt have to many fabrics. Also the Europeans took credit for finding one of Africas rivers when they where only led to it so they could pass over the Nile River.

The Meiji Restoration of JapanQ

2007-11-27T10:16:00.000-08:00

There once was a time when Japan and America didnt speak with each other. But thanks to US Commodor Metthew Perry that all changed. Perry basicaly bullied Japan into something called a Trade Treaty. This started when America needed Japans ocean ports to stock up on food, water, coal, etc. So Metthew Perry and the Americans slowly convinced Japan into signing the Trade Treaty.
This lead to Japan cummunicating with other countrys. Before the Treaty Japan stayed to there self. When they started trading and stuff Japan started to Modernize and ungrade there technology and beliefs.

Evolution vs Creation

2007-09-06T10:20:00.000-07:00

Evolution
Evolution is the theory that says life is based on our ansectors. Its like human evolution. We evolved from monkeys and other creaters. So more advanced organisms are made from sampler organisms. This is the process of evolution. The main objective of this theory is that over time we were slowly created by our simple ancestors. Evolution is a very slow process. So if this theory is corrected then it would take thousands of years just for one species of any organism to evolve.

Creation
Creation is the theory that says life waz based on God and Religion. There are different types of Religions and beliefes such as Judaism, Christainity, Islam, etc. The theory of Creation says that earth and everything else was created by one person. That person is God. Some people believe that Gos is an all powerful being that controls everything from your life all the way to your after life. And others think God is just a mith. Something that was cooked up so people would have something to wership beside a goat like some cultures do.
