Yesterday's Cuban sandwich was still good by the time I'd cycled down to the dock and found a bench looking over the boats. Pelicans perched on the rooftops and glowered at the fish and the people eating fish and the fish eating smaller fish, waiting for their opportunity.
Aware that I am departing this little corner of paradise tomorrow, I walked down Duval Street and allowed myself to be drawn into the key west Wine company. The temptation was to buy a couple of martini glasses – they had a couple of robust numbers with tiny fish cut into the glass. On every glass, one fish is swimming the wrong way. I decided against them because a) they wouldn't last the journey and b) I'd drive myself crazy looking for the fish. So I opted for the easier option of a bottle of blueberry wine, surprisingly dry and even more surprisingly made of nothing but blueberries.
A bottle of wine in a shoulder bag is a heavy burden, and so I was forced to stop for a quick Margarita which arrived with the news that it was 'buy one get one free,' so if you're pacing yourself, be aware of this possibility. Happily, I was able to take it in my stride, and returned to the Marquesa via the local supermarket for Cuban bread, roast beef, and shrimp salad for lunch.
Tomorrow I'm due to do a speech at the key west Toastmasters, and so a small gang of us went down to Solo, a bar near the harbour for yet more Margaritas before heading up to Pisces for dinner.
This is another restaurant that seems to have been carved out of someone's house: there are more tables than first glance suggests, as they are all in different rooms. There are huge Warhol-style prints on the walls. I sat with Chairman Mao looking over my shoulder, and Mohammed Ali looking into my plate.
I kicked off with a salmon roulade and mozzarella roulade, and then launched into tuna with crab and lobster in the lightest and mildest and mangoiest curry sauce you can imagine and you almost certainly can't so I think you should just quit reading this and go.
Another fabulous Riesling, and my work was done. The French couple at the next table made happy noises throughout their meal, while I took it slow and mused on the thought that I haven't put a fork wrong all week.

Austrian Economy Sliding Into Recession
Recovery not in sight until 2010
Austria as a small country in the middle of Europe is also affected by the global economic decline. The Austrian economy shrank – for the first time since 2001 - ín the last quarter of 2008 by 0.2% (as compared to the previous quarter). The downward trend was mainly driven by the export-oriented industries. Austria's main trading partners Germany and Italy registered an even higher decline of around 2% in their quarterly statistics. With no quick improvement in sight, the Austrian economy will also experience a decline in the first quarter of 2009 and will therefore be officially in a recession (=defined as two consecutive quarters of falling GDP). For 2009 overall, the forecasts were readjusted to a negative growth rate of -1.6%.
Austria is a country with a small home market (8 mill. people) and an internationally-oriented economy. It is therefore very much dependent not only on the economic well-being of its European neighbors, but also of distant markets like the U.S. Europe's economic decline started about three months later than the U.S., and it will probably take three months longer to get out of this phase. For 2009, Austrian economists still forecast an increase in consumption (+1%) but decreases in private investments (-3.3%), an increase in the unemployment rate to 7% and an inflation rate of 0.9%. The economy is not expected to be in better shape again until 2010 with GDP growth projected at 0.7%.
What's also worrisome for Austria is the deterioration of the economic situation in the countries of Central and Southeastern Europe. For many Austrian companies this area is practically considered as a 'home market'. After booming years with economic growth of over 5% p.a., these economies only grew in the second half of 2008 by a disappointing 0.6%. The forecasts for 2009 point to a reduction of 0.8%. Differentiation between countries in the region will increase. Recovery prospects are strongest in countries like the Czech Republic or Poland which did not previously overheat. Austrian banks lend an amount equal to 80% of the overall Austrian GDP to the region. They do the most business with this region than banks in any other country. The currencies in these emerging markets have weakened significantly. Due to these devaluations and the perceived higher risks, international investors have postponed investment plans for the region and are not participating in the remaining privatization tenders.

Brother, can you buy a bond?
With Rhode Island awash in pension debt and the Central Falls
municipal bankruptcy drawing national attention, Rhode Island bonds
might not seem like a prudent investment to some. But state
treasurer Gina M. Raimondo is giving Rhode Islanders first dibs
next week on a $169-million sale of tax-free, general-obligation
The bonds, routine issuances to finance voter-approved projects
for education and transportation, clean water and park
improvements, have attracted greater attention given Rhode Island's
troubled economic waters and an ongoing SEC probe of the state's
bond disclosure practices.
The bonds, which have yet to be priced, will go on sale
exclusively to individual Rhode Islanders on Monday and Tuesday,
Aug. 22 and 23, in increments of not only $5,000, but also $1,000
to make them more appealing to small investors. They will go on
sale to institutional investors as well on Wednesday, Aug. 24.
Judging from how quickly the state sold $31.9 million in bonds
in July -- an oversubscribed offering that included $7 million sold
to individual Rhode Island investors -- Raimondo is hopeful, in
spite of the bad financial news that has dominated the
She is launching a $35,000 print-and-radio-advertising campaign,
with the slogan "Invest RI," to urge Rhode Islanders to consider
investing in the tax-free bonds. Among the projects that will be
financed: improvements to the RIPTA bus fleet, construction of a
new chemistry building at the University of Rhode Island,
completion of a public park at the old Rocky Point amusement park
and renovation of Newport's Fort Adams State Park.
"It was important to me that we make these bonds available first
to individual Rhode Islanders, as a way for people to save,
tax-free, while also investing in Rhode Island," Raimondo said in
an interview Monday. "If it's right for an individual, they should
consider this as one way to truly invest in our future."
In June, Moody's Investors Service downgraded the outlook on
Rhode Island bonds from stable to negative, citing the state's
"rapidly escalating pension costs" and anticipating Rhode Island
will have more trouble balancing future budgets.
The state currently carries an Aa2 rating and negative outlook
from Moody's, and a comparable AA rating and stable outlook from
Standard & Poor's and Fitch.
Raimondo, who led a presentation by state officials to the
ratings agencies in May, says that the agencies "look very
positively" on the state's more detailed description of its
financial condition, but that they are also watching closely to see
if the General Assembly enacts meaningful pension reform at a
special session this fall.
"They were very clear -- they're watching to see what we do with
the pension issue," said Raimondo. "We told them we'll fix it, that
everybody is moving in the same direction, but they downgraded us
because they're waiting to see if we do it.� If the General
Assembly passes pension reform this fall, the bond market will look
very favorably on that."
Analysts say that Rhode Island's ratings aren't terrible, given
the unsettled picture across the country, and that Central Falls'
difficulties have not been a drag on Rhode Island's finances.
"The state has seemingly disentangled itself from Central Falls,
and there's no concern of imminent or eventual default -- that the
state can't meet its obligations," says Gary Ciminero, principal of
GLC Financial Economics, an investment and economics consultant in
Providence. "No doubt the risk is higher than it has been in years,
but those are reasonable ratings -- they're not the top, but
they're far from the bottom."
Meanwhile, the tax-free nature of the forthcoming Rhode Island
bonds should make them attractive to investors, depending on the
yield, says Ciminero. Interest on the bonds is exempt from state
and federal income taxes.
Maureen Gurghigian, the state's financial adviser with First
Southwest, said that despite the recent turmoil in the
municipal-bond market, studies have shown that very few actually
"Rhode Island has an excellent rating," she says. "An Aa2 rating
is viewed as relatively safe. Given the turmoil in the stock
market, there has been what's known as a 'flight to quality.'
People are looking for a safe investment. Municipal bonds and
treasuries did very well last week."
While the pricing has yet to be set, based on current rates, a
$5,000 bond purchased for 10 years might pay 2.75 percent a year,
while a $1,000 bond with a two-year maturity might return less than
1 percent -- competitive with a undertwo-year bank certificate of
deposit but with the added benefit of being tax free.
"The state will repay its bonds," says Raimondo, who added that
she is considering buying some bonds herself.
Raimondo noted that the lengthy, 240-page bond offering contains
a beefed-up section disclosing Rhode Island's finances, including
an increased section (from 8 to 30 pages) detailing the challenges
of the state's $6.8-billion underfunded retirement system.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is scrutinizing two
dozen Rhode Island bond offerings over the past three years,
totaling $2.5 billion, to determine whether the state adequately
disclosed the precarious condition of its pension system to
investors. Raimondo, who took office in January, says she has
cooperated with the SEC in its ongoing probe and, meanwhile, hired
a Washington law firm to help the state enhance its transparency --
evident in the detailed statement that accompanies the newest bond
Noting that the pension problems "pose a significant financial
challenge," the financial statement further cautions prospective
bond buyers that the state anticipates it will have to increase its
annual contributions to the retirement system.
"If there were to be a significant increase � the state
may be required to raise additional revenue, reduce state services,
modify benefits � implement a combination of the foregoing,
or take any other measures as necessary," the statement says.
Raimondo said that the bond market and ratings agencies have
responded favorably to the state's enhanced disclosure. And she
encouraged Rhode Islanders to read the financial statement to gain
a deeper understanding of the state's condition.
"Not all the news is good," said Raimondo, "but investors can
take comfort in knowing that they have the complete picture."

But the group's UK festival shows go ahead...
SPIRITUALIZED have delayed work on their next studio album so drummer KEVIN BALES can recover from leukaemia.
Last weekend, the group were forced to pull a Norwegian festival appearance at the Olyafestivalen in Oslo because of Bales' illness.
After returning from Fuji Rock in Japan and a tour of Australia he felt unwell and was admitted for tests. He is now in Nottingham recovering from leukaemia.
The group were due to commence work on their new album in September following their appearances at the Carling Weekend festivals in Reading and Leeds and the Gig On The Green show at the end of the month. However, those sessions will be postponed.
Their UK dates will go ahead as planned however, as Spiritualized have recruited Chris Davis, drummer from Nottingham band [a][/a], to play the shows.

The Rational Dress Society Jumpsuit Jumpsuit , $149.99 plus shipping In June, Eliza Brooke wrote The Sales Pitch to Buy Less and I bought it. Well, I bought what the people making the sales pitch to buy less were selling, which is a jumpsuit that could in that it is appropriate for all occasions, from formal to labor-intensive be the only item of clothing you need ever again. But of course, I also bought all this other stuff, listed below. In my defense, the jumpsuit only arrived last month, and I had to be dressed in the interim. To get a jumpsuit, you fill out a form with your measurements and other information I forget (it was way back in June!)click resources, and in return you get a specialty size with a special name, and eventually, a special jumpsuit, just for you. Initially, I was told I would be getting a Willow, which is funny because willowy is an adjective for a tall and lanky human person, which I am not so much. When it arrived, however, the size was January, but it fit just perfectly, other than a serious case of baby butt. (Baby butt is a chronic condition from which I suffer wherein your backside looks as saggy as an empty diaper thanks to your relatively unsubstantial posterior.) Anyways, I feel like a cool henchwoman in this jumpsuit. View gallery Blundstone Voltan Black Leather Brogue Boots , $185 So technically, I dont have the Blundstones yet, but before I finished editing Chavie Liebers recent piece, From Barns to Barneys: How Blundstone Became a Footwear Staple, I had specifically requested them (with link) as a Christmas present from my boyfriend (he asked!).

The participants still had inadequate sleep-wake cycles at a score of 5 on the Rancho Los Amigos scale, where people are confused and give inappropriate responses to stimuli but are able to follow simple commands. Sleep-wake cycles reached adequate levels at the same time that people reached a score of 6 on the Rancho Los Amigos scale, which is when people can give appropriate responses while still depending on outside input for direction. At that level, they can remember relearned tasks, but cannot remember new tasks. The results were the same when researchers adjusted for the amount of time that had passed since the injury and the amount of medications they had received while they were in the ICU. "It's possible that there are common underlying brain mechanisms involved in both recovery from TBI and improvement in sleep," said Gosselin. "Still, more study needs to be done and future research may want to examine how hospital lighting and noise also affect quality of sleep for those with TBI." ### The study was supported by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the Quebec Health Research Fund.

Needles to say, this can be most frustrating when you get better in a couple of treatments, as it is natural to angrily wonder, "why has no one sent me here before?" try hereWell, I wish that I could answer that, but I can't. A correct diagnosis must be made prior to undertaking any treatment regimen, which then must be specific to the correct diagnosis. It requires a combination of understanding, methodology and specialization to handle certain physical disorders of the patients mind and body. Any of these can result in you developing the TMJ condition, and it may take time before it fully presents itself. A physiotherapist is a person who practices physiotherapy. The official authorities may also ask you to pass a national licensing examination before you start practising physiotherapy. For individuals who suffer from vertigo, bouts are no fun. Many self help books containing migraine headache info could be described in the same manner, but my advice is to look for those sponsored by the American Academy of Neurology or other such reliable bodies. Further, this type of vertigo is actually the fastest from which individuals respond to treatment, so if you suffer with this type of vertigo, you are suffering unnecessarily.
Be sure to contact the vendor for a matrix of rules that will be required so that you have a guide. Departments can be configured to carry an alpha description and the numeric Chart number than well. If you have thought about it, but have never gone through with it, then it's likely that you haven't because of a lack of funds to get started.

Every historical post going back in time must be created, populated, and then depopulated as the employee moves on, even though the jobs, and occasionally departments, may have passed out of living memory. You can then set the trigger to forward a formatted and mail merged email reminder to the Line Manager, the employee and HR department, if necessary at start date + 10 weeks. Your hair colon may be platinum, ash blond, silver or ash brown, with blue, Cray or soft brown eyes.

While Desmond completed his doctorate, Lynette enrolled for an Education degree.
She switched to Social Work when Desmond opted to enter the newly established JCU medical school in 2000 rather than carry out post-graduate research at the Australian Institute of Marine Science.
When Desmond graduated with his M.B. and B.S. at the end of 2005, Lynette had completed her Bachelor of Social Work and had most of the requirements for a Bachelor of Education.
She picked up the remaining units while Desmond completed his internship in Darwin (2006-07) and spent a six-month deployment in East Timor in 2008.
From there the couple moved to Katherine, where Desmond was employed at the Giles Street Medical Centre while he completed his General Practitioner qualifications.
When Dr Brendan Trimble, the founder of the GSMC retired in 2014, Ballantyne Property Holdings bought the practice and Desmond became the nominal proprietor. He ran it as a co-operative, 'employing' three other doctors.
Ballantyne Property Holdings also bought into neighbouring commercial properties and leased them out.
Working on the principle that the Medical Centre was what brought most of the customers into the precinct, while the other businesses paid a standard commercial rate, the Medical Centre's lease involved a peppercorn rent.
Ballantyne & Chin paid the Medical Centre's bills, met the weekly running costs, and invoiced the individual practitioners for one-quarter of the monthly expenses.
Ballantyne's share was paid through Ballantyne Medical, into which Desmond channelled all his medical earnings.

October 6, 2017 – Reverend Jessie Jackson Jr. and the Rainbow Push organization, continue to be resilient and relevant especially when it comes to helping MBEs to find business opportunity in key business segments; such as the automotive sector. The Global Automotive Summit annually brings top level executives, especially, in Purchasing, HR and Diversity; as well as some of their agency service providers to the MGM Grand Detroit to meet, engage and do business with MBEs and the media. This is a great opportunity for MBEs to gain real insight into the business opportunities and connectivity with the Global Automotive Brands.
The conference theme this year is "Expanding the Scale and Scope for Ethnic Minority Inclusion."
Over 500 automotive executives, entrepreneurs, suppliers, dealers, consumers, government and elected officials, advertising agencies, automotive manufacturers, media outlets, technology, and others will convene to discuss strengthening and creating opportunities in the automotive industries for people of color. It is believed that when the rules are public and the goals are clear, we will have a chance to win in economic justice.
This year most of the world's Automotive Brands below the Ultra luxury level will participate in or at least help to fund, as a sponsor, the Global Automotive Summit; including Ford, Mercedes Benz, Cadillac, Fiat Chrysler, Honda, Toyota, Mazda, Nissan and more. Automotive brand representatives last year were very open and honest in answering questions and offering the help they could provide to the MBE participants seeking to do business with their companies. Additionally, many participating MBE's which are already doing businesses with some of the Auto Brands were very open to sharing their experiences and successes.
Additionally, awards are given to Auto Brands which have reached success milestones, in diversity and inclusion, by doing business with MBEs.
Students, who have been awarded scholarships funded by sponsoring Auto Brands are showcased in an awards ceremony. The awarded students are pursuing academic programs of potential benefit to the automotive industry; at colleges and universities nationwide.
The Global Automotive Summit, also provide some great networking and social options. Then there is the 'Comeback City of the Century', Detroit, to be enjoyed. Detroit has some really reasonable hotel rates. For additional information and to register go online to http://automotiveproject.org/ or contact the Rainbow PUSH Automotive Project, (313) 842-3883, firstname.lastname@example.com.

Nobilo's Roasted Lamb is finished in garlic with nice, subtle earthy accents to the delicious hues of the lamb fat. The garden vegetables are basically a deconstructed approach to a ratatouille, but instead of being overcooked and destroyed, it is gently pan seared. We use baby summer squash, patty pans, baby eggplant, roasted peppers, and zucchini flowers, and garnish with herbs like basil and oregano.
Chef's Tip: It's best to make your own stock rather than buy at a store as the reduction will give you no body and will become salty if you are not careful.

It was life as usual for Sebastian Terry… until tragedy struck. Now, having lived life according to a very personal bucket list, he reckons writing your own is a path to happiness.
It's always hard to explain to someone exactly what I've chosen to do with my time on this planet. To an outsider, I am a young-ish Australian who has shirked responsibility in order to pursue a life of adventure, travel and fun. I've married a stranger in Vegas, skydived naked in France (yes, it was cold) and delivered a baby in the aptly named Canadian town of Regina (the place, as the locals joke, that rhymes with fun!).
The short answer is, I have a bucket list of 100 things to do before I die, and I'm going to tick them all off. But it's a little more complicated than that.
At the age of 24, I was working in Canada when, late one night, I received a phone call. The news was not good; a close school friend, Chris, had passed away overnight during a silly party stunt gone wrong. The call stopped me in my tracks. I remember sitting there in the dark, grasping for reasons as to why this had happened, questioning everything that I knew. My purpose in the world. My passions in life. My pride at what I'd accomplished. But mainly, my thoughts boiled down to one simple question: if I was to die today, would I be happy?
Chris' life was made up of all the things he loved. I believe he was happy. But I wasn't.
Sure, I had a university degree – albeit in something that I still don't understand – and a track record of doing all the things encouraged as sensible in life, but I had no idea who I was or what I loved. So I began writing. What kind of life would fundamentally enrich my sense of happiness? Though only half aware of what I was doing at the time, I was plotting a route on a map, writing the blueprint for a plan that would help me navigate to a happier life.
Ask most people what's on their bucket list and inevitably, you'll hear about their travel dreams. Particularly among Australians. Perhaps it's because we're constantly looking outward, a result of our isolation; perhaps it's because, as a nation, we are young and therefore curious. I was never one of those people who want to visit 50 countries, just for the sake of doing so – that seemed a bit arbitrary to me – but different destinations, different contexts… travel made it onto my bucket list because I believe true discovery of ourselves is only accomplished by seeing and experiencing as much as we can. (Plus, a lot of the things I wanted to achieve just weren't possible in Sydney.)
Number 33 on my list was to ride a tiny 100cc scooter across Australia. Up until that stage I'd only ever flown across our great country and I'd always wondered what the ground 30,000 feet beneath me looked, smelt and felt like. Breaking down on my scooter a few months later, halfway across the Nullarbor was perhaps not the ideal way to find this out, but it certainly answered my questions; the earth was red, the scent was warm and after hours of wrestling with my rear tyre, my numb backside told me that the ground was hard. The silence of the land I experienced at that moment was something I'd never witnessed before, either. Miraculously, riding away (at a top speed of 80 kilometres an hour), my smile beamed and my engine squealed in the knowledge that my trans-Australian journey had not only shown me a part of our country that I'd previously only heard about, but allowed an insight into the type of person I was; resilient, dedicated and mechanically inept. Tick!
On another occasion I decided to sleep on the streets of Sydney for a week (number 41). This consisted of walking out my front door and into the CBD with nothing but the clothes on my back. My plan, in the depths of Sydney winter, was simple: survive. Lining up at soup kitchens with hundreds of homeless people, begging for money and sleeping on the cold hard pavements put me so far out of my comfort zone that I couldn't help but grow and learn. Homelessness was an issue I'd never thought about previously but it's now something I'd like to try and assist. This is the benefit of travel, or in this case, adventure.
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do," said Mark Twain. "So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." I couldn't agree more.
Australia is a country rife with beauty, uniqueness and opportunity; a more alluring backyard would be hard to find. (Though I would only recommend riding across it if you have a particularly resilient backside.)
Eight years on from starting my journey, I type this article from a plane headed to Sydney. I've completed 64 items, raising over $100,000 for Camp Quality in the process, through what is now a global audience on my website. My journey has allowed me to answer the very question that stumped me not so many years ago. I smile now, as I type this: am I happy? Yes!
These days, though, I find myself more interested in a different question, and one I hope you can answer well: What's on your list?

Bering Land BridgeThe Bering Land Bridge, also known as "Beringia" was a land strait that was a connection between two landmasses; Siberia from the west, and present day Alaska in the east. The Bering Land Bridge was used for migration between the two landmasses during the ice-age; the people who would migrate across this, lived a hunter-gatherer lifestyle.This migration came in 3 waves; the importance of this was that this was the first appearance of men entering the western hemisphere along with large mammals.
The Dark AgesThe Dark Ages was a period of time in the Middle Ages beginning after the fall of the Roman Empire. When the collapse of the Roman Empire happened, this caused the decline of cultural, demographic and economic ways of the Western Europe world. Since there wasn't a steady and concrete government, the region mostly depended on the political and social system, "feudalism". This is how people of the lower end of life can get protection from the higher people of the system. Education wasn't needed.
The CrusadesThis was a series of religious military wars and expeditions between Christian Europeans and Arab Muslims that primarily wanted to secure control of holy cities that was very sacred to both religious groups. Jerusalem was among these holy cities that was continuously fought over. Mostly poor people were apart of these crusades believed that they were protecting Christ and his kingdom; they also thought that engaging in the religious military wars could get them a guaranteed place in Heaven.
The Renaissance"The Renaissance" is actually french for "the rebirth", which in this case correlates with the rebirth of the European culture after the dreadful Dark Ages.Italy was heavily influential to this rebirth all over Europe; ranging from the Arts of Michelangelo, to the intellectual science of Galileo and Leonardo da Vinci. Many of these intellectual minds found ancient writings from the Greeks and were able to read and studied these were called humanists. This era also produced the printing press.
The Colombian ExchangeThis was the widespread transfer of plants, animals, technology, humans, ideas and diseases from the old world, west Africa and the Americas. The Colombian Exchange was made due to Christopher Columbus, a talented navigator, who completed four voyages; each one of those voyages carried or cause a new problem and idea to whoever land he came upon. For example, he brought new world crops back to Spain but on his way back him, and his sailors were carrying a diseases like syphilis and smallpox,etc.
The Atlantic Slave TradeThe Atlantic Slave Trade engaged in the movement by slave traders of African people, to the Americas. The slave trade used the triangular trade route through the 16th to the 19th centuries. The majority of those who were enslaved and transported in the transatlantic slave trade were people from Western Africa, who had been sold by West Africans to European slave traders. Very few being captured directly by the slave traders in raids, who brought them to the Americas and its islands.
SlaverySlaves are an important part of US History, whether it's runaway or enslaved slaves. As slaves, Native Americans and Africans, were brought in to work eventually sectionalism tension is going to be raised between the south, and the north. As these tensions get worse, the Civil War is going to outbreak between the newly independent United States between the Union, the northern abolishment movement towards slavery under the John Locke ideas of life, liberty, and property, vs. the Confederacy.
New FranceNew France delivered no stores of gold and silver.Rather, the French exchanged with inland clans for hides and angled off the bank of Newfoundland.New France was meagerly populated by trappers and ministers and dabbed with military strongholds and exchanging posts.In spite of the fact that the French tried to colonize the region, the development of settlements was smothered by conflicting arrangements.At first, France empowered colonization by conceding contracts to hide exchanging organizations
SquantoTisquantum,or by his commonly well know name Squanto, was a Native American who actually helped the new English settlers in the Southern English Colonies and the Mayflower Pilgrims with many things such as learning how to farm, a translator when communicating with tribes, he also introduced the new settlers to the fur trade, and taught them how to fertilize native crops, and settle an agreement with his Chief Leader. He worked with
Anne HutchinsonA female who was kicked out of the colony along with her children due to different belief. As a tragedy all her kids die, but she ends up founding the colony of Rhode Island.
English ColonizationWhen Englishmen had started to set up settlements vigorously, there were a lot of French, Spanish, Dutch and even Russian pioneer stations on the American continent– yet the tale of those thirteen provinces (New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia) is an essential one. It was those settlements that met up to shape the United States.
TobaccoThe savior of the town Jamestown (southern colony) after its seeds were stolen in England and smuggled over to the New World. It was the first ever cash crop to bring profit to the colony after it was barely surviving due to a lack of resources.
Head-right SystemJoint-stock companies that claimed land in the New World and bribed English citizens with 50 acres of free land, if they could pay for the own ticket over to the New World. Head-rights realized they needed help to maintain the field so indentured servants were brought in.These servants were the people who couldn't pay for the ticket but have one of the head-rights pay for them in exchange years of labor.As this becomes a problem, with head-rights needing permanent workers slaves were brought in.
MayflowerThe Mayflower is the ship in which brought the Puritans over to the New World as they wanted to get away from England due to religious reasons.But as the many month voyage takes off with the few puritans, slaves, and other helpers, they were not prepared for the treacherous voyage and will lose hope along with their way. Instead of landing in Jamestown, they end up at the Massachusetts Bay Colony area, and settled there in the Massachusetts Colony.They began the settlement Salem, Massachusetts.
Mayflower Compacto The Mayflower Compact was just a document that the colonist sent back to the king after theu realized they ended up in the wrong location in relation to what they told the king. They sent this because they did not want the king to think they were dead and stop sending resources, which they where going to need to start the colony from ground up.
John LockeThe English rationalist and political scholar John Locke laid a significant part of the preparation for the Enlightenment and made focal commitments to the advancement of radicalism. His political hypothesis of government by the assent of the represented as a way to secure "life, freedom and estate" profoundly affected the United States' establishing records. His papers on religious resistance gave an early model to the detachment of chapel and state.
Salem Witch TrialsThe Salem Witch trials is a tricky and very superstitious topic because instead of a trial case with physical evidence, it was more of a they claimed someone was a witch or acted strange.Although a major problem about the trials was majority people would claim someone was a witch to claim their land.There was a growth in religious aspects due to priests leading the community due to puritan beliefs and ideals.Along with the hanging of innocent women because of the fiction "evidence" against them.
Changes in Agriculture
The Great AwakeningThe Great Awakening was a religious recovery that affected the English provinces in America through the 1730s and 1740s. The development came when the possibility of common realism was being underlined, and enthusiasm for religion had become stale. Christian pioneers frequently ventured out from town to town, lecturing about the gospel, accentuating salvation from sins and advancing excitement for Christianity. The outcome was a restored devotion toward religion.
Colonial Economies
French and Indian WarThe French and Indian War also known as the Seven Years war determined the control of the colonial territory like the Ohio Valley, and the Mississippi River. It was the French and Native Americans against the British Europeans; they were very strong allies of the Native Americans because of the fur trade. It lasted from 1756 to 1763, forming an imperial struggle between Britain and France. By 1763, The Treaty of Paris was a signed to end this war. The French had to surrender parts of New France.
Treaty of Paris (1763)The Treaty of Paris was the treaty that ended the French and Indian war. France gave up all of the territories they owned in North America to Britain. This action also ended any doubt of foreign military attacks for the British colonies
No Taxation without ReprsentationThis was a slogan during the 1700s that summarized a primary issue saying the colonists used this to represent the type of representation they wanted; which is, a direct representation in Parliament to bring up their concerns theirselves to the king.But as that is what the colonists wanted they were denied this and used a virtual representation stating that as the colonists are British citizens, they are already represented to the king though Parliament.This started the American Revolution.
ShakersAnn Lee separated from the Quakers to set up her own one of a kind religious advancement subject to restraint, sexual parity, exuberant love, pacifism, and a typical economy. The Shakers got at first from a little piece of radical English Quakers.In 1774, Ann drove her raced to the New World. By the mid-nineteenth century, some place in the scope of 17,000 Shakers lived in the United States. Today, the Shakers are best known for their essential yet stunningly organized furniture and building.
Boston MassacreAlthough the name states other wise, a massacre was not held here with only 5 dead.The Boston Massacre was a event that shouldn't have happened due to the actions that shouldn't have taken place.A group of colonist were messing with soldiers guarding the house of imports before they were taxed.As the soldiers were guarding something was thrown at a soldier who slipped and made the mistake of firing his rifle which lead to the soldiers to fire into the crowd of colonist thinking they fired first.
Tea BoycottsThe colonist boycotted the East India Tea Company due to the fact that the king forced a monopoly meaning only the production and importing of this tea is allowed. Eventually this act and other acts will lead to the Sons of Liberty dressing as Native Americans and dumping crates of tea into the Boston Harbor. As a result of this, the Company will go bankrupt with a modern day equivalization of $1M debt. Because of this, the King releases the Coercive Acts also known as the Intolerable Acts.
Coercive ActsIrritated with the Boston Tea Party and different exhibits of pounding of British property by American pioneers,Parliament arranges the Coercive Acts, to the stun of American Patriots.These were a movement of 4 acts developed by the British government.The purpose of the establishment was to restore organize in Massachusetts and repel Bostonians for their Tea Party.The Coercive Acts included:The Boston Port Act,The Massachusetts Government Act,The Administration of Justice Act,The Quartering Act.
Salutary NeglectSalutary Neglect is the act of the colonies having self-government, such as the House of Burgesses in Virginia, in exchange for mercantilism or economic cooperation. This leads to many problems because now that they colonist have a taste of self-rule, they will become very protective of this. Along with the ideas of the social contract, written by John Locke, of life, liberty, and property. It contributed automatically to the expanding self-rule of frontier lawful and authoritative foundations,
The Battle of Lexington and ConcordThe Battles of Lexington and Concord, battled on April 19, 1775, commenced the American Revolutionary War. The evening of April 18, 1775, several British troops walked from Boston to close-by Concord so as to grab an arms store. Paul Revere and different riders sounded the caution. A showdown on the Lexington town green began off the battling, and soon the British were quickly withdrawing under extreme fire. A lot more fights pursued, and in 1783 the settlers formally won their freedom.
The Declaration of IndependenceThis established the 13 American colonies as independent states, free from rule by Great Britain. The Declaration of Independence replaced the Articles of Confederation, that was originally made for the colonies but became quick when it came to federal decisions.This document consisted of the Preamble, Natural Rights uphold by a citizen, grievances of England, and the resolution of Independence. It mentioned unalienable rights; these are rights that cannot and should not be taken away by anyone.
Articles of ConfederationThis was the first constitution for the United States until it was replaced by the current United States Constitution on March 4, 1789. The document itself was weak because states held most of the power, and congress lacked the power to tax, regulate trade, or control coinage; so, that being said, the government/congress under this constitution couldn't overall anything since they lacked that power. The colonies were more of a "league of friendship" where they protected each other from attacks.
Treaty of Paris (1783)The Treaty of Paris of 1783, was a peace treaty negotiated between the United States and Great Britain that officially ended the Revolutionary War and recognized the independence of the thirteen states. Because the war did not officially end with the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown, it took almost a year and a half for King George III to finally sign a treaty to recognize the states and end hostilities. Britain recognized the independent nation of the United States of America.
Shay's RebellionShays' Rebellion was a progression of assaults on courthouses and other government properties in Massachusetts, starting in 1786, which prompted an out and out military encounter in 1787.The dissidents were for the most part ex-Revolutionary War warriors turned ranchers who restricted state financial approaches causing neediness and property abandonment. The event was named after Daniel Shays, a rancher and previous officer who battled at Bunker Hill and was one of the pioneers of the uprising.
The Great DebateThe progress of the Articles of Confederation to the Constitution was not a consistent one, and settling the issues of the Articles of Confederation required a progression of discussions 55 delegates met at the Constitutional Convention of 1787 to decide how best to change the current document. Under the Articles, when the Founding Fathers marked the Constitution in 1787, it required the approval from nine states previously it could go live. There were two sides Federalist/ Anti-Federalists
Three BranchesThe 3 branches of the U.S. government are the legislative, executive and judicial branches.According to the doctrine of separation of powers, the U.S. Constitution distributed the power of the federal government among these 3 branches,and built a system of checks and balances to ensure that no one branch would become too powerful. Each branch has its purpose, one creates law, another has the power to enforce or carry out the laws of the nation, and the last apply and interpret the laws.
Virginia PlanJames Madison proposed a plan to settle to fill in the necessities that the original government didn't have with the articles of confederation.The Articles of Confederation lacked the structure government, control and power over states, and the ability to tax the states was a proposal by Virginia delegates for a bicameral legislative branch.The purpose of the plan was to protect the large states interests in the government; the states in the who had a larger population have more representatives.
New Jersey PlanWas a proposal for the United States Government exhibited by William Paterson. The arrangement was made because of the Virginia Plan, which called for two places of Congress. The less crowded states were resolutely contradicted to giving the vast majority of the control of the national government to the more crowded states, thus proposed an elective arrangement that would have kept the one-vote-per-state portrayal under one authoritative body from the Articles of Confederation.
Northwest OrdinanceThe Northwest Ordinance was created to answer the question on how will new states be made once people move out to the northwest.This compromise had third stages: the first stage simply stated the land must be owned by the US, then the population have to reach at least 60,000 people to become a state and create a constitution that the congress approved on, while the third stage is official statehood.Slavery was not allowed in these new states, but slaves that were owned before then were not free.
Changes in TransportationThe development of the Industrial Revolution relied upon the need to transport goods and finished goods. There were 3 primary sorts of transportation that expanded: conduits, streets, and railways. Transportation was crucial since individuals were beginning to live in the West. Transportation by means of water was the least expensive. Channels were developed to let more vessels to pass. These enhancements for conduits, streets, and railways made travel safer, and goods moved more productively.
Growing CitiesSomewhere in the range of 1790 and 1820, the number of inhabitants in the United States dramatically increased to almost 10 million individuals. Amazingly, this development was on the whole the aftereffect of propagation, as the migration rate amid that period had eased back to a stream. Less than 250,000 workers entered the United States because of questions about the practicality of the new republic and travel confinements in Europe amid the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars.
Second Great AwakeningThe abolitionist movement was a social/political push for the immediate emancipation of all slaves and the end of racial discrimination and segregation.Radical abolitionism was fueled by the religious fervor of the Second Great Awakening,which prompted many people to advocate for emancipation on religious grounds.The abolitionist movement became prominent in Northern churches and politics in the 1830s,which contributed to the regional friction between North and South leading up to the Civil War.
Bill of RightsThe Founding Fathers swung to the formation of the states' and after that the administration Constitution. In spite of the way that a Bill of Rights to anchor the subjects was not at first respected imperative, the Constitution's supporters recognized it was fundamental to achieving endorse. On account of the undertakings of James Madison, the Bill of Rights formally ended up being a bit of the Constitution in December 1791. Some believed that the Declaration did not protect the citizens rights.
Whiskey RebellionFarmers in Pennsylvania rebelled against Hamilton's tax on whiskey, and several federal officers were killed in the riots because their attempts to serve arrest warrants on the offenders.In 1794, the army, led by Washington, put down the rebellion. This showed that the new government under the Constitution could react accordingly to any problem, in contrast to the government under the Articles of Confederation to deal with Shay's Rebellion.Results:armed resistance eliminated, Minor tax evasion.
Democrat-RepublicansThe Democratic-Republican Party was one of the initial two political gatherings in United States history and where law based Republicans who dreaded a solid national government. They trusted that the Constitution was a "strict" record that unmistakably forced the forces of the federal government. The Democratic-Republican Party fought that house did not have the privilege to embrace extra laws to satisfy its duties under the Constitution. They wanted to keep the US depended on agriculture.
Cotton GinA cotton gin is a machine that rapidly isolates cotton strands from their seeds,empowering a lot more prominent efficiency than manual cotton separation.The filaments are then handled into different cotton merchandise;for example, materials, while any flawless cotton is utilized to a great extent for materials like attire.The seeds might be utilized to develop more cotton or to create cottonseed oil. Eli Whitney made this development that had tradable parts; this was more efficient to the south.
Pickney's RebellionPinckney's Treaty, also called Treaty of San Lorenzo agreement among Spain and the United States, settling the southern limit of the United States at 31° N latitude and building up business courses of action positive to the United States. U.S. residents were concurred free route of the Mississippi River through Spanish domain. The settlement conceded Americans the benefit of tax-exempt store at New Orleans. Each side agreed to control Indians inside its edges from attacks on the other.
Washington's Farewell AddressGeorge Washington Farewell Address was given to the American people on September 19, 1796, explaining his reason for leaving the presidency, and what he'll like for the next president and the people of the nation should keep in mind after he's gone.
Alien and Sedition ActsThe Alien and Sedition Acts were acts included new powers to deport foreigners as well as making it harder for new immigrants to vote.The Alien Act stated that a person arriving in the United States had to wait 14 years to become a citizen.Made it a crime for anyone to write or print articles criticizing the government.These laws became unpopular because it made newcomers into the new colonies feel unwelcome, and the colonists of the present colonies feel as if their first amendment is violated.
Louisiana PurchaseThis was a land deal between the United States and France, in which the U.S. acquired approximately 827,000 square miles of land west of the Mississippi River for $15 million. The Louisiana Purchase doubled the size of the U.S. Thomas Jefferson purchased this from Napoleon. It gave the U.S access to trading routes of the mississippi river.
Marbury v. MadisonThe court ruled Jefferson and Madison, was wrong to prevent Marbury from taking office as justice of the peace.The court had no jurisdiction in the case and could not force Jefferson and Madison to seat Marbury.The Supreme Court, driven by Chief Justice John Marshall, chooses the instance of Marbury v. Madison, Secretary of State of the United States and affirms the rule of judicial review– the capacity of the Supreme Court to limit Congressional power by pronouncing enactment unconstitutional.
War of 1812The War of 1812 was a furnished clash between the United States and the British Empire. The British confined the American exchange since they dreaded it was destructive for their war with France and they likewise needed to set up an Indian state in the Midwest so as to keep up their impact in the district. 10,000 Native Americans battled in favor of the British in this war. The Americans protested the British Empire confining their exchange and grabbing their mariners to serve on British boats.
Battle of New OrleansThe Battle of New Orleans was the last real clash of the War of 1812. It occurred on January 8, 1815. Under the order of General Andrew Jackson, American powers effectively repulsed the attacking British army. The Treaty of Ghent was signed before the fight began, but news did not arrive until after the fight. Since the gain was pursued in a matter of seconds a short time later by news of a peace deal, numerous Americans at the time falsley trusted the Battle of New Orleans had won the war.
Fort McHenryFort McHenry is known for the Battle of Baltimore in the War of 1812, when American troops ceased a British attack. The fight roused Francis Scott Key to pen what might turn into the national song of devotion, "The Star Spangled Banner". In the Civil War, the fort was a military jail. Another intriguing truth: When another banner is intended for the United States, it is first flown to Fort McHenry. This fantastic example of the soul of America is open for visit and is a necessity see.
2nd Bank of the United StatesBank of the United States, national bank contracted in 1791 by the U.S. Congress at the urging of Hamilton and over the dissensions of Jefferson.The chat over its legitimateness added to the improvement of pro/anti-bank bunches into the principle American political gatherings;the Federalists and the Democratic-Republicans.Reconstituted in 1816, the Bank of the United States continued the dialog with Henry Clay and the Whigs supporting it and Andrew Jackson and the Democrats seriously against it.
Adams-Onis TreatyTranscontinental Treaty, in like likewise called Adams-Onís Treaty or Purchase of Florida, (1819) accord between the United States and Spain that divided their North American cases along a line from the southwestern corner of what is as of now Louisiana, north and west to what is by and by Wyoming, and subsequently west along the extension 42° N to the Pacific. Thusly, Spain surrendered Florida and denied the Oregon Country as a byproduct of affirmation of Spanish influence over Texas.
Missouri CompromiseThe Missouri Compromise talked about how the nation should be balanced out between slave and free states when admitting new states. Missouri wanted to join the union as a slave state, unbalancing the ratio between free and slave states in. Missouri met all of the requirements of becoming a state.In order to balance this out,congress added both Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a free state. Any new slavery was banned in all the states, though existing slaves still belonged to their owners..
MormonsChurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), also called Mormonism, follows its sources to a religion established by Joseph Smith in the United States in 1830. From the Book of Mormon, which was distributed by Smith in 1830; utilization of the term is disheartened by the congregation. A global development, the convictions of the congregation are described by an interesting comprehension of the Godhead, accentuation on family life, faith in proceeding with disclosure, and preacher work.
Corrupt Bargain
Age of the Common ManAndrew Jackson's term as president began a new era in American politics, 'age of the common man'. Without precedent for the United States history a man conceived in humble conditions was presently President. Andrew Jackson's decision demonstrated that a mans' lineage did not ensure a place in office. The capacity to engage the voter turned Jackson into the characterizing figure of his age because of his capacity to beat early life battles, his military record, and his triumphs as a grown-up.
Spoils SystemsAn unfair practice in which a political party, after winning an election, gives government civil service jobs to its inexperienced supporters, friends, and relatives as a reward for working towards the victory and to keep working for the party. This started with Andrew Jackson wanting to rotate in office to avoid drama as opposed to a merit system, where offices are awarded on the basis of some measure of merit, independent of political activity. The Spoils System was/is most frowned upon.
Labor Changes
Temperance MovementThe temperance movement is a social development against the against the consumption of alcoholic beverage . Members in the development commonly reprimand liquor inebriation or advance finish forbearance, with pioneers underscoring liquor's contrary consequences for wellbeing, identity, and family life.
