Code Breakers in WW2

http://www.alanturing.net/turing_archive/pages/Reference%20Articles/codebreaker.html

This website is about a man called Alan

Turing. I read the paragraphs and learned

that human'sthought really affects many

things. Just like Alanhad a great influence

in code breaking.

Picture1:Code breaking machine.

http://r.yuwie.com/videos/watch.asp?id=70192

This website is about another man named

Harry Beckhough. He is a code breaker

during WorldWar Two. I watched the video

and read the article I realized a litigant in

WW2 can recount the war in the best way.

Picture2:Binary code.

This is a video about code breakers during WW2:

Prisoners of War

http://www.fortunecity.com/campus/dixie/921/PoWs/pows.htm

This website is about German prisoners of war in

Britain. I read the paragraphs and look at some

pictures. German prisoners often changed their

camps in Britain. You can detect that there were

lots of camps in Britain from the picture right.

However, they still didn't get basic demand.

Picture1: Network of POW camps in Britain.

http://www.acepilots.com/ww2/prisoners.html

There are several pictures in this website. All

of them are about the prisoners in World War

Two. I scan all pictures.There were many

German prisoners which were caught by

American. The picture right is about Jewish

civilians.Black and white picture also reflects

their agonizing life.

Spies in WW2

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_many_British_spies_were_there_during_World_War_2
This is a Q and A about spies of Britain. Their
spies were successful because they all came
from different countries. I learn different
languages can make the spying job safer.

Picture1:A spy been caught.



http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_effect_did_German_spies_have_in_World_War_2
This is another Q and A, about German spies. Comparing with

spies of Britain, spies of Germany were really helpless. They
were often caught by Britain immediately. However, their
military was still strong.

Pearl Harbor

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_on_Pearl_Harbor

This article length is so long that I just read some
paragraphs. After I read it, I found people like to show

the results by numbers. However, we have to put the
emphasis on preventing attacks like this.

http://teacher.scholastic.com/pearl/hour/index.htm

This website talks about a story of a couple that lived

in Pearl Harbor. I read all of it and found the attack

of Pearl Harbor was the most successful one than the

others. I also learned countries didn't care what they

were attacking during the war. Though the houses

of civilian.

http://www.answers.com/topic/attack-on-pearl-harbor

The length of this website is much longer than the first

website I found. Call me if you finish reading all of it.

There's a film "Japan Bombs Pearl Harbor". From the

sentence president said:“day which will live in infamy”

I realized how brutal Japan was that time.

Bombing Raids in WW2

http://www.century-of-flight.freeola.com/Aviation%20history/WW2/bombing%20raids.htm

This website talks about bombing raids in Britain
and Germany. Germany bombed London, and

Britain revenged. It wouldn't end if Britain didn't

win the war. However, weapons broke many

families, not except for Germans.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Gomorrah

I view this website and read the article. There are

many statistics in the last paragraph. Bombing

Raids caused enormous damage during WW2. It

shows there is no honorable war. War can't occur.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqfAGqbTkeU&feature=related

This video is about the battle of Britain. At first

there were many people preparing bombs. You can

see bombing raids and dogfights, too. After I watch-

ed the film, if humans didn't record the war, our

later generations won't learn the brutal of war.

Iroquois Nation

http://www.mce.k12tn.net/indians/reports1/iroquois.htm
I watched pictures of models they made. They've done a
good job. Iroquois Indians lived in which New York state
is now. I learn that things change quickly in the same place.
For example, the Longhouse vanished and buildings appear.

http://www.bigorrin.org/mohawk_kids.htm

I read all questions and answers in this website. I learn
more about the life in Indian culture. I also know there
are somethings still don't change after hundreds years.

Take Indian kids for example, they liked to play but most

of times they had to do chores.

http://www.mce.k12tn.net/indians/famous/black_hawk.htm

I read the whole article about Black Hawk, one of the famous

chiefs. He was good at battling. He killed Indians of other

tribes when he was young. I realize although he was good at

fighting, Indians were still persecuted by Americans' guns

and con games.

Britain's Battle In WW2

http://www.battleofbritain1940.net/contents-index.html

This website is well arranged. I clicked on page10 The
Hawker Hurricane. You can find how it was designed.

I learn weapons can be used to save people, too.

http://www.discoverychannel.co.uk/ww2_home/ww2_battle_of_britain/ww2_the_raf_strike_back/index.shtml

This website talked about the RAF. I also clicked the "Our Last
Hour". In this war, Britain lost less soldiers than German. I

realize war always causes deaths, though you lost less soldiers.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/worldwars/wwtwo/battle_of_britain_01.shtml

I scan over this website and look at the picture. The picture shows

the trail of the battle between air forces. I also learned Britain

wasn't the sole country which fought with German. Also the US and the Soviet Union.

German Army In WW2

http://www.diggerhistory.info/pages-weapons/enemy_ww2.htm

I look through this website and watch many
weapons. There're SMG, grenades, rifles, and

pistols. I learn that the improvement of
weapons may causes wars.

http://aboutww2militaria.com/index.html

I read this website and the prices. Besides

the weapons, there are helmets and some

uniforms. After wars, those things will be-

come commodities or even mementoes.

They notice the pain of wars.

http://www.diggerhistory.info/pages-leaders/ww2/german_ww2.htm

I surf this website and know different

cultures have different ways to salute. As

for German army, they raise their hands

toward the sky. It's their style.

Picture1:Tomato Masher Picture2:German helmet for sale Picture3:Handsome Hitler

German Occupation

http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/poland.htm

I read this website and know the history by
the diary of a polish physician. I learn that

it is hard for them to resist because they
are not allowed to have armer.

http://library.flawlesslogic.com/cm_rev.htm

I read the article and look at some pictures.

People had serious starvation under German's

occupation. Also, I know the worst thing is the

German government concealed the truth.

http://www.poloniatoday.com/history12.htm

This website also talks about Poland under

the occupation. However, it was conquered

by both German and Soviet Union. Because

of that, they are same as slaves. I realized

not only Jews but also other human beings

were persecuted.

Picture1:A German armored columncrosses the Polish border.

Picture2:Child in hunger.

Picture3:Germans attack.

Blitzkrieg

http://www.achtungpanzer.com/blitz.htm

This website teaches the concept of blitzkrieg.

I click "Panzer Profiles" and look for a while.

I learned in blitzkrieg, panzers didn't fight in-

dependently. It was supported by artillery

and airforce, too.

http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/blitzkrieg.htm

I look around this website. It explains where the

idea of blitzkrieg comes from. I learned that it is

Guderian's plan, and also, Hitler was interested

in it. Though it was laughed by others before.

http://www.2worldwar2.com/blitzkrieg.htm

I scan over this website and discover some new

things. In WW1, it was impossible to invent

mobile artillery and machine guns. That's because

blitzkrieg is based on speed. Furthermore, I

learned that the improvement of weapons causes

more damages.

South Russia.

Bomb Shelters and Air Raids of WW1

http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB162/index.htm

This website introduces nuclear bombs.
I scan it and look at some pictures. The

bombs in the photos are just model. From
this website I learned nuclear bomb is
so dangerous that it is not safe although

people stay in bomb shelters.

http://www.lago-colony.com/LAGO_IN_WWII.htm

This website is full of pictures. It tells the

things of World War two. I look over all the

photos. You can click the second line to

view the map which has the location of

bomb shelters. From the map I know that

to protect people, bomb shelters are the

more, the better.

http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/exhibits/ww2/protect/raid.htm

This website talks about how to notice that

there's a danger. Furthermore, how the

people in World War two protected them-

selves. I read it and learned how they

defence. According to the article, they use

color to show the dangerous when there

are going to have air raids.Therefore, I

learned everyone must be aware in war.

A World Devided

Fascism:
http://departments.kings.edu/history/20c/fascism.html
I viewed this website and found it introduces
fascism by countries. Take the fascism in
Italy for example, Mussolini is the first people
who started it in Italy. I learn that same
thought may have different developtions in
different countries.


Communism:
http://www.gmu.edu/departments/economics/bcaplan/museum/marframe.htm
I scan this website and find there's a picture of
a man with big beard. His name is Karl Marx,
he is significant for communism. His thought
is called Marxism. It is kindness. Therefore, I
learn thoughts can be realized in many ways.



Democracy:
http://www.worldprintmakers.com/english/artofdemo.htm
I look at the pictures in this website. These
pictures are interesting. They are the art of
of democracy. All the pictures have the mean-
nings of democracy. I learn that perhaps
democracy is common now, but many years
ago, people even have to propagate by pics.

Powwow

http://www.powwows.com/info/?p=63

As for everybody knows, powwow is the gathering

of Native Americans. This website is like a diary.

From author's picture, I know he isn't successful

on pretending Indians. I look at the right list and

click "What is a Pow Wow?". I learn everyone

has different explains of the meaning of powwow.

Some think it's a behave of culture, some think

it's a war dance.









http://www.kten.com/Global/story.asp?S=5729074

I scan over this website and find it writes about

what the writer had experienced on the powwow.

Furthermore, I learned for the natives, join the

powwow is important because of making friends

with others. Although there are many strangers,

they all dance and sing together.

http://www.umich.edu/~powwow/

This website, in fact, it is more like an invitation.

It will be hold on April 4 and 5, 2009,at Saline

Middle School in Saline. I watch the video beside

and learn how happiness and wonderful powwow

is. I also realize, to make friends with others

easily, by dancing and singing with others is the

quickest way.

Picture1: Crowded on the powwow.

The Nazi Party

http://www.calvin.edu/academic/cas/gpa/ww2era.htm

This website connects to many other websites about

Hitler and Nazi. I scan it. The writer thinks Propaganda

was central to Nazi party. The writer wrote a book:

Bending Spines: The Propagandas of Nazi Germany

and the German Democratic Republic. The writer has

written a new book,too. It is named "Landmark Speech-

es of National Socialism". Both of them talk about Nazi.

http://www.discoverychannel.co.uk/web/shows/dark-fellowships

I surf this website, and it has some introduce about theNazi

Party. It is a dangerous group, of course the centerof the

party, Adolf Hitler. It's said they believed that

they can live under the ground and fly toward the stars

by a mysterious substance called Vril.

Picture of Nazi:

http://www.germanculture.com.ua/library/weekly/aa080601b.htm
I found this website about how is the women under Nazi's

law. Women were forced to give up work and have children

to make German powerful. Interestingly, many women

supported the National Socialist Party. In this website, you

can find some rules Nazi Party ruled about Germany wom-

en. Including keep mind and spirit pure, married to German,

and knowing the ancestor of their husband.

Hitler

http://www.ushmm.org/outreach/nrule.htm

This website have more informations about

Nazi party. I scan it and click the top of the

website, Nazi Terror, some terrible things

which they had done. For example: End

individual freedoms, including freedom of

press, speech, and assembly.

http://www.neatorama.com/2006/09/10/hitlers-secret-jewish-girlfriend/

I am interested in this website's title,

Hitler's Secret Jewish Girlfriend. It's strange,

hu? Because Hitler was famous for killing

jewish. This information is from a book wr-

itten by Hitler's best friend August Kubizek.

It's said that Hitler never concerned about

the truth which his girlfriend was a jewish.

I can't sure whether it is true or not.
http://www2.dsu.nodak.edu/users/dmeier/Holocaust/hitler.html

And this, has many things about Hitler's life.

At the part of "Hitler's Boyhood", it even

mentions that he had a fine singing voice. He

also seriously considered becoming a priest

for two years. In this website, there is a

sentence:"It was not long before the great

historic struggle had become my greatest

spiritual experience. From then on, I became

more and more enthusiastic about everything

that was in any was connected with war or,

for that matter, with soldering." - Hitler

stated in his book Mein Kampf.

Meaning of Life

Insignificant mortals, who are as leaves are,
and now flourish and grow warm with life,
and feed on what the ground gives,
but then again fade away and are dead.
-by Homer
This website:http://www.meaningsoflife.com/
has some informations of the meaning of life.
Life is dream, life is pain, life is short... ...
However, my thought of the meaning of life
is as same as the poem at the top. Life is just
like a plant, we gain knowledge to grow. And
then seeds become trees, and so do we. But
we can find that the leaves fall, of course,big
trees die, and so do we. Nevertheless, it does
not mean the end. More and more plants
grow by the nutrient of the dead tree. Human
should be the same, our life's valuable can't
disappear after we die. What we must do is
to have contribution to the social. This is my
target, and it should also be everyone's.

Myth about Farming

http://www.legendsofamerica.com/NA-SiouxLegends.html
This website has many myths. For example:
The Forgotten Ear Of Corn

An Arikara woman was once gathering corn
from the field to store away for winter use.
She passed from stalk to stalk, tearing off
the ears and dropping them into her folded
robe. When all was gathered she started to
go, when she heard a faint voice, like a
child's, weeping and calling:"Oh, do not leave
me! Do not go away without me."The woman
was astonished. "What child can that be?"
she asked herself. "What babe can be lost in
the cornfield?"She set down her robe in
which she had tied up her corn, and went
back to search; but she found nothing.
As she started away she heard the voice
again:"Oh, do not leave me. Do not go away
without me."She searched for a long time.
At last in one corner of the field, hidden
under the leaves of the stalks, she found one
little ear of corn. This it was that had been
crying, and this is why all Indian women have
since garnered their corn crop very carefully,
so that the succulent food product should not
even to the last small nubbin be neglected or
wasted, and thus displease the Great Mystery.

Egyption God and Goddess

http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ancient/egyptians/gods_gallery.shtml
This website talks about some egyption gods and
goddesses. I will introduce three gods here.

For picture one,this god is Osiris.Osiris, a member
of the Great Ennead, was not only god and chief
judge of the Underworld but also god of resurrection
, the Inundation and vegetation. He was represented
as a mummified king. He was murdered by his
jealous brother, Seth, but was resurrected.

Then picture two, Horus, the son of Isis and Osiris.He

is also the god of sky. Born to Isis after the murder

of Osiris by the god Seth.He was raised by his mother

to avenge his father's murder, a struggle that lasted

80 years before the gods finally awarded him victory

and the throne of Egypt.

The last picture, Anubis, the god of death.It was Anubis

who guided the dead on the paths of the Underworld.

Early on in Egyptian history, before Osiris rose to pro-

minence, Anubis was the great funerary god, lord and

guardian of the necropolis.He was depicted as a black

jackal-like creature, or as a man with a jackal's head.

Myths about Heroes

http://ancienthistory.about.com/od/heroes/tp/TopHeroes.htm
This website talks about some heroes:
The first picture is Hercules.There is a legend that says
Hercules kills two snakes since he was a baby.It is Hera,
who put snakes.But he muders his own child(under the
guidance of Hera, of course).
The second one is Theseus.He has a famous legend.He
volunteered to feed the half man-half bull beast in the
labyrinth.With the help of the creature's half sister,

Theseus was able to slay the monster and find his way
out again.
The last picture is Odysseus.Who is famous for Troian
horse.Because he had the idea of it.He was also one of
the few Greeks to reach his homeland of Ithaca,after
10 years of war and 10 years of troubles at sea.He was
a descendant of Hermes, god of thieves.

Hunter and Gatherer Myths

http://www.legendsofamerica.com/NA-Muskrat.html#The%20Forgotten%20Ear%20Of%20Corn
The Forgotten Ear of Corn is about when an indian woman
cutting corns,she heard ""Oh, do not leave me. Do not go
away without me."She search for the sound,at last,she found
that it is an ear of corn.This myth tell us we can't waste anything.
http://www.legendsofamerica.com/NA-Peacepipe.html#Story%20of%20the%20Peace%20Pipe
In 'Story of the peace pipe' ,there are two men walking beside
the ravine.They see a beautiful woman and she gives a pipe to
them.She said that it can makes the world peaceful when you
play it.Perhaps Indian want to be peaceful so there is the myth.
http://www.legendsofamerica.com/NA-PactOfFire.html
The Pact of the Fire explains how dogs are related to human.
In this story,there was a femail dog and her babies.In cool
winter,they were almost dead.So the dog asked two humans for
food and the warmful of fire,then her babies would protect their
life.Both humans agreed,and after that,the mother dog died.
