The Busy World of Richard Scarry-Imagine That - X-ray Eyes
In this video Huckle and Lowly Worm learn about x-rays. If you had x-ray eyes you could see an inside view. An x-ray machine takes a picture to see inside of you.

1883-05-11: Flagler, Henry M., to Margaret Olivia Slocum Sage
This image is a handwritten letter from Henry M. Flagler to Margaret Olivia Slocum Sage. The writer sends a donation to Mrs. Sage to be passed on to the Carlisle Indian School and praises its work.,Marriage to financier Russell Sage in 1869 meant that Olivia Sage was now a socially-prominent New York matron, but she seems to have had little money at her discretion even for causes she believed in passionately. Although both Olivia and Russell Sage were enthusiastic about the Carlisle Indian Schoo
A People's Uprising Against the Empire Those of the young generation, people too young to remember the collapse of Soviet bloc and other socialist states in 1989 and 1990, are fortunate to be living through another thrilling example of a seemingly impenetrable state edifice reduced to impotence when faced with crowds demanding freedom, pea

The City of London and its Tax Haven Empire
The City of London is an offshore island inside the British nation state, floating partly free from the democratic rules and restraints that bind the rest of us and fed by a network of tax havens around the world. Nicholas Shaxson and Maurice Glasman look at how this secretive network emerged and came to underpin the City's fearsome political and economic powers today. Maurice Glasman, recently appointed Labour Peer and Reader in Political Theory at London Metropolitan University. He is the auth

The Clean Up Robot Song teaches students about clean up time in a different, creative way. Some of the lyrics include----"I am the clean up robot. Having so much fun putting toys away. Doing what my teachers say. Throwing trash away," etc. This would be a good teaching resource for the beginning of the year when elementary students are learning procedures and routines. This would be well suited for young students and/or special education students. (2:04)

The global oil major Shell reports five fold profits but figures have come in well below expectations leaving the market disappointed.
This course offers a broad survey of modern European history, from the end of the Thirty Years' War to the aftermath of World War II. Along with the consideration of major events and figures such as the French Revolution and Napoleon, attention will be paid to the experience of ordinary people in times of upheaval and transition. The period will thus be viewed neither in terms of historical inevitability nor as a procession of great men, but rather through the lens of the complex interrelations

But in her spare time, she designed and built model planes and by 1906 she had developed a model biplane and was seeking a sponsor to enable it to be built and test-flown. Olivia Sag
