.... light particle, called a photon, is proportional to the frequency of the radiation. The formula for this is E=hv, where E is the radiation, h is a universal constant known as Planck's constant, and v is the frequency of the radiation. This proposal, that the energy contained within a light beam is transferred by individual units, or quanta, contradicted the hundred year old tradition of considering light as a manifestation of continuous processes. My third and most impotant paper, "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies", contained what has become known as .....

.... Newton's stepfather died. His mother returned to Woolsthorpe to take care of the farm left by Newton's father. But she didn’t have enough money, so she could not manage the farm by herself. Isaac was taken out of school and was sent home to help her. Poor young Isaac could not farm for his life. He abandoned the necessary chores and only thought about mechanical things to make and books to study. There are many stories about him at that time that show how forgetful he was becoming. One of the stories is about when he was once leading a horse, it ran away, and h .....

.... had been taught according to this outlook during his time at the Jesuit college La Flech_ and it had an important influence on his work, as we shall see later. The second was the scepticism that had made a sudden impact on the intellectual world, mainly as a reaction to the scholastic outlook. This scepticism was strongly influenced by the work of the Pyrrhonians as handed down from antiquity by Sextus Empiricus, which claimed that, as there is never a reason to believe p that is better than a reason not to believe p, we should forget about trying to discover the .....

.... in prospecting, which he found was not his cup of tea. He then became a reporter, but he was quickly moved up to editor of the Virginia City, Nev., Enterprise, this is when he began using Pseudonym “Mark Twain”. In 1864 Twain joined the staff of the Morning Call, which is when he met Bret Harte, the first purely literary figure he had ever known. The next year he wrote The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County. After his publishment he was sent around the world by the Sacromento Union. Later in Twains life he faced many inner struggles which probale be .....

.... soon learned to sign the alphabet, write and eventually speak. Helen learned to read lips by pressing her fingertips to the speaker's lips and feeling the vibrations and movement. This method, called Tadoma, is extremely difficult; very few master it. Helen had mastered Braille, the manual alphabet and the typewriter by the age of 10. By age 16, she could speak well enough to go to prep school and college. In 1888, Helen and her teacher went to the Perkins School for the Blind, where Miss Sullivan continued to teach her. In 1894 they went on to the Wright-Humas .....

.... in 1951, he then did postgraduate work at Boston University. King's studies at Crozer and Boston led him to explore the works of the Indian nationalist Mohandas K. Gandhi, whose ideas became the core of his own philosophy of nonviolent protest. While in Boston, he met Coretta Scott of Marion, Alabama. They were married in June 1953, and the following year an appointment as pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was only 26 years when he led his first protest, The Montgomery Bus Boycott. This all started wi .....

.... the fruits, vegetables, and herbs present did not come close to resembling those found in India. The Indian region was well known for it's unique spices. These spices were not to be found in the Americas. Perhaps that mental error could be overlooked when studying Columbus' persona. Others may not be so easy. He got off his boats and started to explore. He encountered natives of these new lands. He figures since this is India, these must be Indians. These so called "Indians" were not Indians at all. They were Native Americans. People belonging to local tribes of .....

.... close to his two brothers, George and Tom, and his sister Fanny. When he 15, Abbey removed him from the Clarke School, as he became an apothecary-surgeon’s apprentice. Then in 1815, he became a student at Guy’s Hospital. He registered for a six- month course to become a licensed surgeon. Soon after he decided he was going to be a doctor he realized his true passion was in poetry. So he decided he would try to excel in poetry also. His poetry that he wrote six years before his death was not very good. As his life progressed his poetry became mo .....
