Out of the darkness of the French defeat and capitulation of 1940 rose one of the greatest mass-resistance movements in history. Thousands of French patriots rose up‚ by themselves and in groups‚ and defied Nazi authority. They formed resistance movements that fought the Nazi occupation of France and the collaboration of the Vichy government. The French resistance was detrimental to the success of the Allies during World War II because they played a key role in the D-Day landings and were able to

ARISE? Temptations can come through many avenues. We shall list a few of them so that we shall know how to watch out. Temptations can come through: (a) Poverty or prosperity (Prov. 30:9).(b) Discouragement (Ps. 42:11‚ 1 Kings 19:4). (c) Pride‚ the case of Nebuchadnezzar’s fall (Dan. 4:30); (d) Pleasure‚ that led Demas astray (11 Tim. 4:10) (e) Desire for power‚ that brought a curse on Simon Magus (Acts 8:19);

“The greatest nonviolent resistance is that even as man is faced with tyranny‚ and the resulting suffering‚ he responds to hate with love‚ to prejudice with tolerance‚ to arrogance with humility‚ to humiliation with dignity‚ and to violence with reason.” (-Lou Xia) Peaceful resistance has a positive impact on society. Throughout Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s entire lifetime‚ he used peaceful resistance to voice the segregation policy of America against black people. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi used

Introduction The resistance of a wire depends on certain factors. Some of these variables are listed below: Length of wire Diameter or thickness of wire Temperature at which wire is kept The material of which wire is made out of. The potential difference or voltage. Humidity Cross sectional area. Voltage across circuit All these factors will have to be kept constant except the diameter of the wire whilst doing the experiment to ensure that the investigation is

Data Analysis The investigation I did was to find the resistance of a piece if wire. The piece of wire is my dependent variable throughout the investigation. I changed the length of the wire in order to measure the resistance of each length. Plan In this investigation‚ a simple circuit will be set up to read the voltage and current when the length of the wire changes. The length will range from 10cm-80cm with intervals of 10cm. The length of the wire will be changed by moving the crocodile clip

Factors Affecting The Resistance Of Wire Aim: To investigate the factors that affect the resistance in a conductor. The main factors that affect the resistance in a conductor are: · Length · Temperature · Cross sectional area · Material · Magnetism The factor that we are going to change is the cross sectional area. Hypothesis: I think that the higher the cross sectional area‚ the lower the resistance in the conductor will be. This is because the Resistance in a metal conductor happens

Insulin Resistance “Insulin resistance is a silent epidemic that increases the chance diabetes and heart disease” according to the insulin resistance and pre-diabetes article; the causes and treatments are confusing and not always effective. According to Gerald Reaven‚ M.D.‚ Sixty to Seventy-five million Americans have insulin resistance; however‚ they do not know it. The endocrinology system is still a mystery to most average Americans today. They are not well-informed between the differences

Antimicrobial resistance takes a place when a microorganism develops the ability to resist the action of an antimicrobial. (AVMA) In other words‚ the microorganism progress‚ ways to stay alive and reproduce in the presence of an antibiotic that used to prevent these actions. At this time‚ the process of resistance development is a very difficult process and researchers do not know for sure about what can make a resistance happen. (AVMA) Antimicrobials are spread through the food production systems
