Amazing Invention of Sir.Thomas Alva Edison
Without the development of Thomas Alva Edison, our lifestyles will no doubt be very different. With both of the amazing technologies that came out of his New Jersey laboratory, this great builder changed our culture immeasurably. Edison, who was brought to the state of Ohio in 1847, received his first intellectual property rights at the age of 21. In 1933, two years after the incident, a full-fledged recognition in his name was granted. So far, you have secured 1,093 U.S. patents and more than 1,200 licenses from different countries. Edison historians estimate that he receives a patent every fourteen days for the rest of his working life. The major responsibilities of his "development" were no different, and he was counted in a legal battle with many other composers of "borrowed" ideas. Edison’s acting skills and the use of his clout often earned him the credit he deserved. Watch this video as much as you can to see why people from Congress are rejecting this machine that will make them more productive and how something Edison did is to shock young women and put their people in a position.

Kafka's "The Metamorphosis" and the Trans Experience
If I had a nickel for every time I've had to read "The Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka in an English class, I'd have two nickles.

Toddler To Tyrant: The Destructive Death Of Henry VIII's Mother
The day was February 11, 1503. The bells of Saint Paul’s Cathedral tolled while London’s wearied masses collected in assured astonishment of the news. The Queen was dead. Queen Elizabeth of York had been introduced to the realm 37 years to the day of her death in an England much different than the one she left. She was the first child of King Edward IV and her namesake, Elizabeth Woodville. Born amidst the turmoil of the dynastic wars; her formative years were spotted with war, instability, death and betrayal. Narrowly escaping the grasp of her Kingly uncle who stood in place of her misfortunate brothers, the succession of a Lancastrian incumbent would change her fortunes. Following the defeat of King Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth, Elizabeth married the freshly crowned King Henry VII. By uniting their houses formally, the Tudor dynasty sought to establish itself as the premier royal house at all means necessary. England’s new Queen would play an essential part in her country’s security by providing the necessary heirs to its future. She would hardly disappoint. Nine months and one day after her wedding, she gave birth to the golden prince meant to be the first King to receive the crown by means of natural inheritance since the days of Henry VI; Prince Arthur.
