Paradise Alley Until September 2001, three summer
days in 1863 were the most frightening in the
history of New York City. From Monday, July 13,
through Wednesday, July 17, mobs held much of
Manhattan. The rioters were working class,
overwhelmingly Irish Catholic and filled with
smoldering resentments -- at the Yankee
Protestants who exploited and demeaned them, at
the squalor in which they were forced to live, at
inflationary prices and lockouts and
strikebreaking. But the final spark was provid...

Fossil Fuels Environmental Concerns

Introduction Traditionally, Western views of

without thinking about consequence. This
nonchalant use aided in the Wests ability to
influence the world through technological
advances. In the past, limited travel and slow
communication systems had limited our view to a
local one. If pollution or to much urbanization
occurred the solution was to move.
Industrialization has changed things. With science

By creating new acts he established new jobs for
people who have been jobless up until that point.
This was very important because without a job
people cant earn money, and they also tend to be
more depressed. These acts that he sent through
