    Extractions: Navajo Code Talker Dictionary Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Peleliu, Iwo Jima: the Navajo code talkers took part in every assault the U.S. Marines conducted in the Pacific from 1942 to 1945. They served in all six Marine divisions, Marine Raider battalions and Marine parachute units, transmitting messages by telephone and radio in their native language a code that the Japanese never broke. The idea to use Navajo for secure communications came from Philip Johnston, the son of a missionary to the Navajos and one of the few non-Navajos who spoke their language fluently. Johnston, reared on the Navajo reservation, was a World War I veteran who knew of the military's search for a code that would withstand all attempts to decipher it. He also knew that Native American languagesnotably Choctawhad been used in World War I to encode messages. Johnston believed Navajo answered the military requirement for an undecipherable code because Navajo is an unwritten language of extreme complexity. Its syntax and tonal qualities, not to mention dialects, make it unintelligible to anyone without extensive exposure and training. It has no alphabet or symbols, and is spoken only on the Navajo lands of the American Southwest. One estimate indicates that less than 30 non-Navajos, none of them Japanese, could understand the language at the outbreak of World War II.

    Extractions: [Note: Burton sprinkles his English liberally with Latin quotations, which I have here translated and placed in quotation marksJ.F.T.] Democritus to the Reader. So good authors in their style: a strict and succinct style is that, where you can take away nothing without loss, and that loss be manifest. The brief style is that which expresseth much in little. The concise style, which expresseth not enough, but leaves somewhat to be understood. The abrupt style, which hath many breaches, and doth not seem to end, but fall. The congruent, and harmonious fitting of parts in a sentence, hath almost the fastening, and force of knitting, and connection: as in stones well-squared, which will rise strong a great way without mortar. Periods are beautiful when they are not too long; for so they have their strength too, as in a pike or javelin. As we must take care that our words and sense be clear; so, if the obscurity happen through the hearers', or readers' want of understanding, I am not to answer for them; no more than for their not listening or marking; I must neither find them ears, nor mind. But a man cannot put a word so in sense, but something about it will illustrate it, if the writer understands himself. For order helps much to perspicuity, as confusion hurts. . . . We shold therefore speak what we can, the nearest way, so as we keep our gait, not leap; for tooshort may as well be not let into the memory, as too long not kept in. [Transcription by John F. Tinkler]

    Extractions: perfectibility. Truth) The principle of Development i.e. vis conservatrix of the organic principle, and the form embodying it. Thus the organised individuum produces itself; it expands itself actually to what it was always potentially: So Spirit is only that which it attains by its own efforts; it makes itself actually what it always was potentially natural organisms) Its expansion, therefore, does not present the harmless tranquillity of mere growth, as does that of organic life, but a stern reluctant working against itself. It exhibits, moreover, not the mere formal conception of development, but the attainment of a definite result. The goal of attainment we determined at the outset: it is Spirit in its completeness , in its essential nature, i.e. continued Universal History exhibits the gradation in the development of that principle whose substantial purport is the consciousness of Freedom. The analysis of the successive grades, in their abstract form, belongs to Logic; in their concrete aspect to the Philosophy of Spirit. Here it is sufficient to state that the first step in the process presents that immersion of Spirit in Nature which has been already referred to; the second shows it as advancing to the consciousness of its freedom. But this initial separation from Nature is imperfect and partial, since it is derived immediately from the merely natural state, is consequently related to it, and is still encumbered with it as an essentially connected element. The third step is the elevation of the soul from this still limited and special form of freedom to its pure universal form; that state in which the spiritual essence attains the consciousness and feeling of itself. These grades are the ground-principles of the general process; but how each of them on the other hand involves within

World War II With freedom and opportunity in their dreams, millions have flocked to American shores since the birth of the immigrant-built republic.

97. World History Web Resources: An Annotated Guide
    Provides an annotated guide to Web resources for studying world history. Created bya librarian at Central Michigan University.

    Extractions: I have prepared this guide to help students find the best history resources on the Web. Unfortunately, there is a lot of garbage on the Web. Some of it is from people who have real biases on issues and they are trying to portray historical events in a skewed manner. Others simply write and post material which they sincerely believe to good history. The reality is that many of these people have no training in history and the end results of their efforts is misleading, wrong, or strange. I hope this guide simplifies the search process for history on the Web. Don't just type a search phrase into Yahoo! or Google and use what you find. Some of the worst sites do well in search engines and relying on them could seriously harm your grades! General Resources Here are some sites which I believe provide good resources for world history in general. Library Reference Search History Categories - This directory is based on the Open Directory Project which is a volunteer edited project of the Web. As every site submitted is reviewed by a real person, it assures that most of the spam, garbage, and wacko sites are screened out. This means most of the 12,000+ listings will provide you with good solid history information. The Open Directory Project is one of the most trusted sources on the Web. Thousands of sites use ODP data on their pages to give their visitors good Web results. Using Library Reference Search to access the ODP data will allow you to save time as dmoz.org has a slow response time on a regular basis.

     Extractions: Educational Tips: How to do World History research International Histories researching can identify and utilize both primary and secondary sources. Advice for students, teachers and parents. History topics can be the difficult to find information on simply because there is an overabundance of historical journals, books, and other information sources. It can be frustrating to find relevant and unbiased pieces in the sea of editorials, sensationalism, and articles. There are several approaches to history research that are highly effective at filtering the massive quantities of available information. Secondary sources are much easier to find and analyze since they are synthesized and written for more modern audiences. They also provide an excellent guide to finding primary sources since most secondary sources include extensive bibliographies and appendices. Books usually offer the broadest analysis although they can certainly delve very deeply into their subject areas. Scholarly journals in general offer the highest level of history analysis, but it can be difficult to find good articles in the thousands of available publications. Most colleges and some public libraries provide access to Internet search engines specifically designed to find articles in scholarly journals. However, these still tend to be unreliable and do not include many of the best available journals. History research can be a time consuming effort but it is possible to find valuable information for all kinds of research projects. Always remember that a well-balanced approach is the key to effective history research. Both primary and secondary sources contain bias that can be identified if enough sources are employed. A methodical examination of all sources will provide the best analysis of a historical event and that will yield the most impressive final product.
