...Whisky Rebellion Phill V Advanced Placement American History A.P. Test Review Activity: Putting the Workspace to the Test One of my consistent recommendations for review for objective tests has been to review as if you were preparing for an essay test. Pose a question dealing with a key theme – go back in to your outline and see if you could bullet out four or five key points that you would need to consider in order to answer the question. Write a statement considering what factors you would need to address in answering the question. If you feel comfortable that you could answer the essay question you could probably answer an objective question dealing with any of the key points. That will be the basis for this activity, how can we incorporate the workspace into our review? 1. Write a FRQ type question that addresses the topic. Discuss the consequences that followed the implementation of the Whisky Tax and the series of uprisings known as the Whisky rebellion and the results of it. 2. Identify the key theme this question addresses. Addresses the Whisky tax, the whisky rebellion, and what happened during the whisky rebellion 3. Identify key ID’s, Events, People, Places that would be essential for answering this question (feel free to add more if five doesn’t cover it). a. Battle of Bower Hill- Mingo Creek Militia Men Surrounded General Neville’s home, Neville Mortally wounded one of the rebels so they opened fire on his house, reinforcements came from US...

...Rebellion in Kentucky While it may not have been considered an overt, bellicose rebellion like that of the western Pennsylvanian counties, whiskey rebels in Kentucky were able to successfully avoid paying the excise tax for eight years. Considered a Virginian district before achieving statehood in 1792, the Kentucky was the ultimate frontier for the infant American nation. In Kentucky, according to historian Mary Bonsteel Tachau, “Whiskey was used in place of money because specie and bank notes were scarce beyond the Appalachian Mountains.” This posed an automatic issue for Kentuckians regarding how they would go about paying the whiskey tax, considering the law required the tax to be paid in banknotes, which were uncommon in Kentucky. Additionally,...

...why it succeeds or fails in reaching out and encompassing the viewer. The first step is to view the film in its entirety. From this viewing you can get an initial reaction to the many parts of the film that you will have to explore in more depth. When you first view the film, it is best not to try to take notes or separate the parts of the film; you should be familiar with the textbook in order to know what to look for. After you have formulated a thesis and have begun the process of supporting that thesis, you should view the film at least once more in its entirety and two or three times in segments in order to review scenes of major importance. The thesis statement is the element around which to structure your analysis. Because the theme or focus of the film is basically the thesis of the filmmaker, identification of that theme can often serve as the thesis of the film analysis itself. You can then view the remainder of the film’s elements in light of their success or failure to support the film’s central focus. After determining the thesis, you should view the film again with an eye to...

...The Maritime Strategy of China in the Asia-Pacific Region Origins, Development and Impact HUANG, AN-HAO Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2009 School of Social and Political Sciences Faculty of Arts The University of Melbourne Produced on archival quality paper ABSTRACT This thesis aims to examine how and why a continental-oriented China has shifted its maritime strategic orientation and naval force structure from its coast toward the far seas in an era of interdependent international system. Generally, China is an ancient continental land power with an incomplete oceanic awareness. With the transformation after the Cold War of China’s grand strategy from landward security to seaward security, maritime security interests have gradually become the most essential part of China’s strategic rationale. Undoubtedly, the quest for sea power and sea rights has become Beijing’s main maritime strategic issue. Given China’s escalating maritime politico-economic-military leverage in the Asia-Pacific region, its desire to become a leading sea power embodying global strategic thinking means that it must expand its maritime strategy by developing its navy and preparing for armed confrontation in terms of international relations realism. Conversely, Beijing’s maritime policy leads at the same time towards globalization, which involves multilateralism and strategic coexistence of a more pragmatic kind. This research...

...Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thailand, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn common, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscommunication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to assist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used...

...Bloodlines of Illuminati by: Fritz Springmeier, 1995 Introduction: I am pleased & honored to present this book to those in the world who love the truth. This is a book for lovers of the Truth. This is a book for those who are already familiar with my past writings. An Illuminati Grand Master once said that the world is a stage and we are all actors. Of course this was not an original thought, but it certainly is a way of describing the Illuminati view of how the world works. The people of the world are an audience to which the Illuminati entertain with propaganda. Just one of the thousands of recent examples of this type of acting done for the public was President Bill Clinton’s 1995 State of the Union address. The speech was designed to push all of the warm fuzzy buttons of his listening audience that he could. All the green lights for acceptance were systematically pushed by the President’s speech with the help of a controlled congressional audience. The truth on the other hand doesn’t always tickle the ear and warm the ego of its listeners. The light of truth in this book will be too bright for some people who will want to return to the safe comfort of their darkness. I am not a conspiracy theorist. I deal with real facts, not theory. Some of the people I write about, I have met. Some of the people I expose are alive and very dangerous. The darkness has never liked the light. Yet, many of the secrets of the Illuminati are locked up tightly simply because secrecy is a way...

First, look over the words on our SAT High-Frequency Word List, which you’ll find on the following pages. Each of these words has appeared (as answer choices or as question words) from eight to forty times on SATs published in the past two decades. Next, look over the words on our Hot Prospects List, which appears immediately after the High-Frequency List.
