... we were questioning whether to turn the territory we seized from the Mexican War into free or slave territory. President Polk suggested stretching the Missouri Compromise line to the Pacific.

Still, others proclaimed that slavery should be banned completely in the land seized from Mexico. Calhoun said that the ban on slavery was unconstitutional.

... and 10.9 million gallons of North Slope Crude Oil spilled into the frozen Alaskan waters at a rate of two hundred thousand gallons per minute. The remaining forty-two million gallons were off loaded. In the ensuing days, more than 1,200 miles of shoreline were hit with oil. This area included four National Wildlife Refugees, three National Parks, and Chugach National Forest. Within hours, smaller tanker vessels arrived in order to off load the remaining oil.

... to his two works, with Chapter Four and Five of "Into the Dark House" focusing on Americas involvement in Indochina and the relationship of America towards Australia and vice versa ( focusing primarily on America's role in the conflict).

... both of which were completed between 1489 and 1492. Michelangelo had several successes in his life of painting, architecture, and sculpting. His first large-scale sculpture was Bacchus. Around the same year of 1498, Michelangelo did the marble Pieta, which he finished before the age of twenty-five and is the only work he ever signed.

... family. Overall, the statue is built in a way to display the immense power and influence, a perfect platform for political propaganda. The arrangement of the locks of hair, although not powerful, is a sign of divine status. Each strand is articulate and exact in form and direction, yet very natural in pose and position. The overall smoothness of the marble radiates a smooth flowing humanism, but does not steal away his position as a human demi-god. His face is warm and inviting, exhibiting an almost warm, fuzzy feeling in the viewer once again, without threatening his power to command and control the great civil ...

... Ballads (1798) by William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Wordsworth's The World is Too Much With Us (1802) emphasizes a world being plagued by materialism while steadily losing its spirituality.
