.... In 1888 he married Clara Bryant and had a son named Edsel Ford. In 1896, he completed his first automobile, the “Quadricycle” and in 1903 he founded the Ford Motor Company. Henry’s success was in fast motion and he was ready for anything that he was given. He was often known as “a little man challenging a monopoly”. This was just the beginning for Henry.

.... areas, including mathematics, warfare and transportation, to name a few. Although Temple wrote about eleven fields of invention, I feel that these three sections contain the greatest examples of Chinese innovation, and the debt that the modern world owes China. The first main area is the field of engineering. Within this chapter, the development of iron and steel is the greatest achievement. The development of iron and steel led to other advances. By at least the 4th century the Chinese have developed blast furnaces to obtain cast iron from iron ore. This was 1200 years before the first blast furnace showed up in Europe. The reasons that the .....

.... as political and economic matters, the effect on Britain of foreign influences is for most of this period greater than that of Britain on Europe; one of the main questions that Dr. Jones considered when writing this book was why this relation was later reversed. In looking at this period as a whole there is a clear contrast between Britain’s isolation and unimportance in European affairs at the beginning of the seventeenth century, and Britain’s full involvement as a major influence after 1688. This involves intellectual and political matters. European intellectual developments during the first part of the century did not significantly affect t .....

.... oil is used a lot in cooking. Salads are usually eaten with the main meal. Main courses include souvlaki, a shish kebab with cubes of meat-often pork or lamb-and vegetables, and stuffed eggplant or tomatoes. Pasta is also popular. Fruit is often served for dessert. Although Greek food is not "low fat" the primary oil used is olive oil, which has been proven to be better for you that rendered animal fat. Cheese is another mainstay of the Greek diet. The average Grecian eats 50 lbs. of cheese a year. This ranks second in world cheese consumption behind France. The most popular Greek cheese is Feta, which is a smooth cottage type of cheese.

.... establishes how women are viewed by the main character in a touching bit of dialogue where Dunson tells the eager and motivated girl that where they are going is too tough for women and that he will "send for her later." She is ironically killed by Indians some 5 hours later. The two of them made it as far as the , which is the beginning of Texas. During the night Dunson and Rupp are attacked by Indians. As it turned out these were the same Indians, who ambushed the wagon train, they had left earlier in the day. Dunson and Rupp had seen the smoke from the attack that killed the girl as they were riding away. It seems to me that Indians in this film are .....

.... Walter Gropius was appointed as the head of the school. He had three goals that he wanted his students to achieve. Artist and craftsmen were accepted into the program in an effort to get them to work collectively to combine all of their skills. Secondly, the students were to design everyday objects as works of art. This would advance modern art into the sense of functional design. The third goal was to maintain contact with the leaders of industry so the students could be their consultants. Ilkka Huovio stated in , The New Man - The New Technique that "The idealistic basis of was a socially orientate programme. An artist must be conscious of his s .....

.... to a new level of urban consciousness." (Steele, 6) Moss's past projects all allowed him to examine issues related to internalized environments which allow many people to work together in carefully determined surroundings, the final users are not know to him, and can change as the market allows. (Steele, 6) Eric Owen Moss has been described as a "Jeweler of Junk." More likely then not, Philip Johnson used this term to describe Moss for the way he combines different materials in his projects when he is exploring the complexity of his spaces. This term is not fully accurate; Moss merely wishes one to recognize or not to recognize the different materials in .....

.... post, a thin, dowel-like stick of wood wedged inside underneath the right side of the bridge and connecting the front and back of the violin; and the bass-bar, a long strip of wood glued to the inside of the front under the left side of the bridge. The sound post and bass-bar are important for the transmission of sound, and they also give additional support to the construction. The strings are fastened to the tailpiece, rest on the bridge, are suspended over the fingerboard, and run to the pegbox, where they are attached to tuning pegs that can be turned to change the pitch of the string. The player makes different pitches by placing the left-hand fingers on .....
