The message areas on "anarchist" boards are quite active, "chatty" messages are not discouraged. Indeed there are normally several different message areas devoted to a wide range of topics including everything from "skipping school" to "punk rock." The files area contains both warez (but normally only the newest games, and specific to the computer system that the board runs on) and phreak/hack text files. Neither collection is ...
- 1922: Monet
- ... prochain il a eu un operation. Sa vue s'est amelieorée. Monet est mort en 1926. Il a souffré d'un cancer du poumon. Monet's Art Monet's art began with his love for school. He once said, "It [school] seemed like a prison, and I could never bear to stay there, even for four hours a day, especially when the sunshine beckoned and the sea was smooth." Out of shear boredom Monet drew caricatures ... other subjects rather than solely art. However, there efforts failed them, not only because he was making more profit from one drawing than his teachers made in one day, but he later dropped out of school to become known as the "Father of Impressionalism". This title did not impress Monet; it was a position he never wanted. What he wanted out of life was to honor the lessons of his ...

- ... work.’ The full compliment of artist contained in this description are Decroux, Barrault, Marceau, and Lecoq. He discovered his interest and aptitude for mime by way of his participation in athletics. Jean Daste, within whose school and company Lecoq was to initially train, had worked directly with Copeau. In the current production, there are a number of performers who have studied his work at L’Ecole Jacques Lecoq in Paris. These ... on by Lecoq. In the article ‘Mime, Movement, Theatre’ appearing in Rolfe’s book, Lecoq comments on the nature of the work he explores. ‘Often people ask me “What is it you do in your school, is it mime?” I always feel that the one who asks that question limits the school to a wordless formalism. The word “mime” already is restricting. One sees a performer who does not speak and who makes stylized gestures to show imaginary objects, or makes faces to have you understand ...
- 1924: Heilner's "Beneath the Wheel" and Me
- Heilner's "Beneath the Wheel" and Me As it did every school day of my junior year, 11:12 AM had come once more to mark the end of my academic morning, and the beginning of my lunch period. After paying my one dollar for a small ... time was spent playing bass in the band room, or spent engaging myself in conversation with my close friends, I never let schoolwork, tests, or quizzes interfere with this opportunity to let my mind leave school for a few moments. Meanwhile, just a couple of tables away sat Chris. Just as religiously as I relaxed during the period, Chris would be diligently working. Chris and I did not have much in ... in stimulating conversation. If I had spent those hours with my nose in a book, would it have been worth it? Would going against my will, and submitting my desires to those of the high school, and those of my parents have made me any happier? I tend to think not. I feel that the author Hermann Hesse shares this opinion with me through the character named Hermann Heilner in ...
- 1925: A Dependent Generation
- The computer has become one of the most important and influential luxuries of this generation. Young people use computers every day for school, work, and entertainment. They are the first generation to have become computer literate as early as the onset of adolescence. For most of their lives they have used computers, so it is not surprising that ... my dorm mates are on academic probation. My age group is not the only part of Generation X that has a fixation with Video games. Whether it is kids sneaking in video games during high school computer class or adults downloading the latest games onto their computer while their bosses head is turned Xers turn to video games for a good time. For these individuals, the computer has become the main ... define itself as computer dependent. We have grown up in a society where computers are the trend. And, furthermore, we constantly reaffirm our dependence upon them, as a substitute in the work place and at school, as well as a substitute for a rewarding social life. If this trend continues the dependence will become greater as computers continually offer to make our lives easier and more convenient.
- 1926: Life And Legend Of Howard Hugh
- ... get stories on Hughes. Howard was also associated with what has been called one of the greatest publishing hoaxes in history. Howard Hughes Sr., commonly known as Big Howard, was a graduate of the Harvard School of Law, yet never once appeared before a court of law. Big Howard spent the first 36 years of his life chasing money across the Texas plains, as a wildcatter and a speculator in oil ... motorcycle, Hughes built one for himself, taking parts from his father’s steam car. As a graduate of Harvard, Big Howard sought his son to have the same education, and sent his son to boarding school in Massachusetts in fall of 1919. After one year had passed it became apparent that Sonny was not going to succeed in grooming school. Big Howard traveled across the country to collect his son, and they attended a boat race on the way home. After losing a bet to his son on the outcome of the race, Big ...
- 1927: Stranger In The Kingdom Vs. Sn
- ... with millions of oriental faces living in mediocre (at best) conditions. Why hadn t any of my previous history classes ever covered this topic? Why, at 17 years of age and a junior in high school was I only becoming aware of it now? Provocative thoughts such as these kept circling through my head as Hatsue described the conditions in the camps. I believe that we have enough books like Stranger ... our country seems to forget. Ever since the thought-provoking meeting of C.V.U. s Diversity Committee, I really do believe that we are not informed of a well-balanced amount of information in school. After reading and rereading the section about the mistreatment of oriental people during WWII, I believe that we should focus more on issues such as these in our history classes at school. I remember a speech that Jesse Jackson once gave where he stated that in order for us to fix racism, we had to educate all children at an early stage. Although we as upper ...

- ... was on its way to Washington, Bethesda Naval Hospital made preparations to receive it. The three doctors chosen to do the autopsy were Commander James Humes, M.D., director of labs at the Naval Medical School in Bethesda; Commander “J” Thorton Boswell, M.D., chief of Pathology at Bethesda Naval Hospital, and Lieutenant Colonel Pierre Finck, M.D., chief of the Wound Ballistic Pathology Branch at the Armed Forces Institute of ... P.) (1749,2794,5,8). In addition to the three pathologists, there were two Navy enlisted men who served as autopsy technicians, three radiologists, and two photographers. One of the photographers was Bethesda's medical school chief of photography, John Stringer (2797). Dr. Humes was told personally by Rear Admiral Kenney, Surgeon General of the Navy, to “find the cause of death” (2796). According to Breo, Drs. Humes and Boswell thought ... the kind of weapon used. This is not so. The Warren Commission proved that it was one man using an Italian made, Mannlicher-Carcano rifle, which was found on the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository building (Petty 1552). Lee Harvey Oswald shot the President from this building, expending three bullets from that rifle. The first bullet was shot from a range of one hundred seventy-five feet ...
- 1929: Can Intelligence be Measured
- ... a test may be for standardizing a group's intellectual ability. To issue a truly standardized test, the background of their studies must all is the same between students. For example, children from a big school in Indianapolis certainly had different classes that could be taken in Kendallville, In. The schools probably have different funding, environment, children, plus many other factors that are not the same in every school. The actual environment that they are taking the test in could be different and affect different individuals in different ways. A person could not be feeling good on the certain day of the test and ... tests can also hurt a person's self esteem in some cases. If results are lower than expected, their expectations of themselves may also lower. I have seen many cases like this in my high school thought my four years. "The examiner scores the responses and comes up with a single number- the girls IQ. This number (which the little girl may actually be told) is likely to exert appreciable ...
- 1930: Women's Freedom and Control
- ... act or talk a certain way, it was almost a law and the way of being. Women haven't had any freedom almost since the beginning of time and they finally were able to attend school many years later. Now women have equal rights with the men. Along the years, women's rights have ranged from slim, to some, and then ranged to many. When someone mentions cavemen, a mental picture ... finally gained a little freedom and control when the government was first developed in 1776. After learning only how to cook and clean in the home by their mothers, the young girls began to attend school and learned how to use the proper English and mathematics skills. This gave more women a greater opportunity and to have an open mind in the public. Today women have many rights and a very ... amazing thing is that they were raised to think and act the way they did, boiling, dusting, and knowing what to start doing next. When a young woman gets in trouble in the home or school, they always think about their freedom. Most do not think about how lucky they are to have as many rights as they do now even with their current rules. They should probably think about ...
