- A Brief Encounter With A Space Shuttle
By: Sanjay Verma | - The late sixties and the early seventies saw a flurry of activity at the NASA headquarters as various manned missions to the moon were executed one after the other. Christopher Freville reasons that the race to the moon was basically triggered by the Cold War between the US and the former Soviet Union.

- A History Of The Cold War "€" Facts You Need To Know
By: Nikhil A Sharma | - The first whiff of tension between Russia and the West was felt in the air during the time of the Bolshevik revolution. While the Ottoman Empire was in its death's throes, Russia grabbed the opportunity to annex large territories in Europe. This brought the country in direct confrontation with the other powers, notably Britain, France and Austria, which used tactics such as intervention in the Civil War in Russia to discomfiture the latter. Bolshevism came to be seen as a threat to the world. Th ...

- How To Plan For An Emergency
By: Artie Megibben | -
During the Cold War, school kids had frequent “bomb drills” where they learned how to, in a calm and orderly manner, slide under their desks and put their hands over their heads. How this was going to protect us from a thermo-nuclear holocaust is anyone’s guess. The point is, we ran the drill. We were prepared for the worst. Today, large companies develop comprehensive evacuation plans, appoint floor captains and conduct regular “fire drills.” The day the bui ...

- The Evolution Of The Gi Joe Action Figure And The Action Figure Collecting Craze Fuelled By Internet
By: Vikram kuamr | - The Hasbro company in the early part of the sixties right in the heat of the cold war situation, introduced a new line of toys which coined the term action figures. These toys were named GI Joe and were modelled after American soldiers in World War II and were of the similar dimensions as the Barbie doll figure which was a big hit with young girls who fancied having dolls.

- Great Game In The Pamirian Knot - Geopolitical Impact And Long-lasting Effects
By: Herman Kreutzmann | - Boundaries and diversity are used as distinguishing classifiers in numerous contexts. Boundary-making plays a major role in the political sphere when the momentum and range of power are at stake. Long-lasting effects can be observed in colonial contexts, in the process of nation-building and in the delineation of spheres of influences. Geopolitics has received a bad reputation when ideologies and dictatorial regimes aimed at the extension of their dominions. In the Central Asian context, geopoli ...

By: Brent Warnken | - As soon as Greek Mythology is mentioned the first titles that come to mind are the Iliad and Odyssey by Homer.

Today, the story has been re-imagined by writer and director Lilian Groag, who has adapted the story from a translation by the renowned contemporary poet Christopher ...

- American History In Obama's Inauguration Speech
By: Nate Gillespie | - As anyone who saw a campaign poster in 2008 could surely tell you, Barack Obama is all about change. Change in the White House, most profoundly in the simple, yet stunning, fact that we now have our first black president. Change in the tenor of politics, in an effort to step back from the ferocious partisanship of the past decade. And change in the direction of the country, in the form of a dramatic shift in the priorities and policies of the government.
Yet change, Obama also knows, can ...

- Examining War
By: Charlie Reese | - Throughout the history of mankind, there have been wars. Times of peace, although the preference of most people, seem to exist all too briefly. Prior to the Industrial Age, war was much less sophisticated, in terms of weaponry. War was fought on specified battle grounds, with much conducted in hand-to-hand combat. Civilians were not injured. In even the most ferocious of campaigns, the casualties sustained were nothing like modern warfare.
Today, civilians are fair game in war, acquir ...

By: C.L. Carr | - The prospect of a nuclear exchange between two superpowers was once upon a time, "unthinkable". After 911, with the non-proliferation treaties, the break up of the Soviet Union, and the end of the cold war, what could possibly go wrong? Well, actually a lot. With the break up of the Soviet Union into several smaller republics, a power vacuum was created in the region. Every new nation within the area with a name ending in "stan" started flexing their military muscles. They also started sell ...

In the Middle East, we have Israel at war with Hamas. In China and Russia, simmering public tensions have the authorities deeply concerned. Ukraine, too, is wrapped up with Russia in a natural gas dispute that has (literally) left Europe in the cold.

- Churchill's During World War Ii And Its Aftermath
By: C. Read | - The growing rapacity of German gluttony forced Hitler to take over Austria in 1938 and threaten Czechoslovakia. In Britain this produced a national crisis which resulted in Prime Minister Neville Chamberlains meeting Hitler in September 1938 at Berchtesgaden. Chamberlain returned from the meeting announcing peace in our time which was abruptly smashed when Hitler invaded Prague in March 1939. Soon after given Western weakness and hesitation to work with the Soviet Union St ...

By: Bobby Miller | - It is most appropriate that George W. Bush and John McCain are meeting behind closed doors because that's where the two Bush terms were won. But we must remember not to attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity. The good news is, what these two lack in leadership and integrity is made up for in arrogance and pig-headedness.
For those of you who found it incomprehensible that McCain voted against helping our troops, saying he didn't want to be too gene ...

- Why Smoked Meats Are More Popular In Europe
By: Adam Marianski | - In Europe smoking meats was practiced long before the discovery of America and it was a survival skill. At some point in the past we had discovered that when meat was left hanging over smoldering fire it tasted better and the process had been repeated ever since. We also knew that when salt was added to meat it improved its taste and keeping qualities.
Those original salts came in huge slabs from different salt mines and the quality varied as different salts contained different im ...

And I was captivated immediately. I read the first hundred pages at a pace, delighting in the ease with which the Chimanada Ngozi Adichie used language to draw me into the middle-class clique centred on the University of Nsukka which provides the core characters of her book. Their infidelities, their inconsistencies, their desire ...
