- ... different part of her state of mind. Judging from the way she dresses and is groomed it appears as if she comes from a family less wealthy than most of the other children at her school.

- 2154: Consensus Historians
- ... with his writings. In 1948 Hofstadter joined the faculty at Columbia University. Here Hofstadter published The American Political Traditions and the Men who made it. Many regard this book as the start of the consensus school of historical writing. Much of this book was a look into brief political biographies on presidents, but the way that it was presented was very different. Hofstadter made some points in the introduction that points ... conflict can work hand in hand to achieve the goal of Hofstadter "comity" (Potter pg. 188) This book for Hofstadter had a major impact on some of the ideas he had for this new consensus school of thought. The book also took historiography to a new level and many after reading the book feel that the book is also "a testimony to the possibilities of historiography in American historical scholarship" (Kraus ... their political thinking. Boorstin eventually fell into a deeper conservative trend then Hofstadter and Hartz because of a Marxist influence (Sternsher pg.14-15). John P. Diggins goes on to say that, "consensus versus conflict" school of thought "flowered in large part as a response to Boorstin's work" (Sternsher pg. 15). In Boorstin's work he takes on many elements of anti-progressive and left to right course of ...
- 2155: Feeding Yeast
- ... best food for it. I wanted to know what would make the yeast grow better. I used corn syrup, gelatin, grape juice and flour mixed with water. I thought that the corn syrup, which is high in processed sugars, would produce the make the most carbon dioxide gas. Carbon dioxide is a by-product made when yeast reproduces. The flour, which is high in starch, I expect to produce some carbon dioxide and the gelatin, high in protein, not do much. And I expected the grape juice, which is high in natural sugar to be the food yeast doesn't like and make the least gas. The information that I ...
- 2156: Guaranteering Civil Rights
- ... to hear the case of Brown vs. the Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas. The case involved Linda Brown, an eight year old black girl from Topeka. Linda was required to attend an all black school 20 blocks from her home, even though there was an all white school only a few blocks away. With help from the NAACP, Linda's father, Oliver Brown, sued the Topeka Board of Education so that his daughter could attend the nearby all whtie school. NAACP lawyer Thurgood Marshall challenged the Plessy vs. Ferguson ruling and argued that even if seperate black schools were equal to white schools, black children were still suffering great psychological damage. On May 17, ...

- 2158: Cryogenics And The Future
- ... in 1986, J Gregore Bednorz and K. Alex Muller discovered that an oxide of lanthanum, barium, and copper becomes superconductive at 30 K. This discovery shocked the world and stimulated scientists to find even more "High-Temperature Superconductors". After this discovery, in 1987, scientists at the University of Houston and the University of Alabama discovered YBCO, a compound with a Tc of 95 K. This discovery made superconductivity possible above the boiling point of liquid Nitrogen, so now the relatively cheap, liquid nitrogen could replace the high priced liquid helium required for cryogenic experiments. To date the highest reported Tc is 125 K, which belongs to a compund made of Thallium, Barium, Calcium, Copper, and Oxygen. Now, with the availability of high-temperature superconductors, all the sciences including, cryogenics have made extraordinary advances. Some applications are demonstrated by magnetically levitated trains, energy storage, motors, and Zero-Loss Transmission Lines. Also, superconducting electromagnets are used in Particle ...

- 2160: TLO vs. New Jersey: When Is The Constitution Invalid?
- ... I rule in favor of the petitioner, the state of New Jersey. In this case, I found no reason in the claims made by TLO and her defense. They claimed that the search conducted by school officials was unconstitutional. These officials were searching her purse for cigarettes, which she was caught smoking in the bathroom. During the search for the cigarettes they found the cigarettes, rolling papers used for making joints ... because she was violated of her rights promised in amendment 4, unlawful search and seizure. Yet, the incriminating items were found at the same time as the cigarettes, and given reasonable cause for suspicion, the school does have the legal right to search its students, and finally, the school officials had the right to search her purse because there was a reasonable doubt of her claiming to innocence being true. TLO's 4th amendment rights were however, in fact not violated due to ...
