Woodrow Wilson was a great and wise president USA and whose achievements cannot be forgotten at any cast. Be was wise, brave and honest of USA. First of all it lays the foundation of press conference on daily basis to update public what the USA president is doing must known to the public. Listen what the history writes about Woodrow Wilson…
His first move—to hold regularly scheduled press conferences with the Washington press corps—was an innovation. Wilson appealed to the reporters assembled in the East Room of the White House for his first press conference, on 22 March 1913, to join him in partnership by interpreting the public opinion of the country to him. Wilson’s intentions were, of course, to control the flow of information from the capital to the country and to use it to shape public opinion. And this he did successfully, on the whole. Wilson discontinued the regular press conferences in June 1915 because of increasing diplomatic responsibilities. He held only a few afterward—one in September 1916, a few in late 1916 and early 1917, and the final one on 10 July 1919.
Wilson also sought to educate and shape public opinion through state papers, addresses, and public statements. No president in American history has used these media with such remarkable power and success as Wilson did. He rivaled Jefferson and Lincoln in his mastery of the English language, but he used the spoken and printed word far more than they had done to shape the course of events. On the highest level of discourse—when he sought to end the war in Europe, to enunciate American war aims, or to plead for ratification of the Treaty of Versailles—Wilson claimed to speak not for himself but for the American people. In his annual message of 8 December 1914 he said:
I have tried to know what America is, what her people think, what they are, what they most cherish and hold dear. I hope that some of their finer passions are in my own heart—some of the great conceptions and desires which gave birth to this Government and which have made the voice of this people a voice of peace and hope and liberty among the peoples of the world, and that, in speaking my own thoughts, I shall, at least in part, speak theirs also.

Woodrow Wilson was a racist; he was a member of the elite. He set back Civil Rights to the 1863 level. He barred non-whites from Princeton when he was President of that University. He came into office and benefited the rich. He fought against trade unions. America only entered the war at the very end and took credit for ‘winning’ when it did very little. When the Veterans protested for money owed them, he sent the National Guard against them.
Women who fought for the right to vote were systematically imprisoned and tortured. It was not until the very last part of his tenure that he gave women the right to vote.
He is no hero.

Actually I watched a bio documentary about Peter the Great once and they did NOT leave the gory details. Shocking!
-
It is amazing they call him Great. He is worse than Ivan the Terrible.
-
-
-
he is such an evil man, how could the history labelled him as a hero?
I guess back those days, people are blinded with greed and injustice.Nope, he isn’t a hero, he is a tyrant
-
For some reason history thought to elevate him, call him ‘Lion hearted’ as a compliment.
-
-
The event that I hate the most in this king’s bio is the record of the Crusades. Showed his real lust for power!
-
The vital aside is that Saladin proved himself the most chivalrous, the most decent, the best leader ever. He was the hero, not this guy.

That’s sad, I used to think that psychologists are people who tend to be around people all the time, and they are people who like to be in their own most of the time they are probably buried in their books, or are socialising somewhere. This is a profession that needs a lot of interaction with people so when you say that Harriet was always suspicious and always on her own I beg to wonder how she even became a psychologist? Anyhow I guess something’s are just as they seem you can never tell how they came up
-
It shocked me and I tried to find out how.. apparently when she went to college it was one of the few subjects she did well in, then went on and got further training.
So there she is; ‘helping’ people.
-
-
It is quite possible she is good in her profession as a psychologist. It is quite possible that by taking the course she learned to understand herself and can now help others because … guess she can say to her patients … “Been there. Done that. Let me show you a better way.”

Good tips, but you could have used a few things like using bullet points and bold letters to explain the things more clearly.

I thought it was clear enough. Try harder next time.

Search engine optimization is a methodology of strategies, techniques and tactics used to increase the amount of visitors to a website by obtaining a high-ranking placement in the search results page of a search engine (SERP) — including Google, Bing, Yahoo and other search engines.
Search Engine Optimization is the process of improving the visibility of a website on organic (“natural” or un-paid) search engine result pages (SERPs), by incorporating search engine friendly elements into a website.
A successful search engine optimization campaign will have, as part of the improvements, carefully select, relevant, keywords which the on-page optimization will be designed to make prominent for search engine algorithms. Search engine optimization is broken down into two basic areas: on-page, and off-page optimization.
On-page optimization refers to website elements which comprise a web page, such as HTML code, textual content, and images. Off-page optimization refers, predominantly, to backlinks (links pointing to the site which is being optimized, from other relevant websites).

This is very sad that we may be a people like this I the society. There are people I would like to call lo are because they cannot keep friendships going for long. I wonder how such people can be helped, can therapy work for them. It’s bad enough to have someone in the house with you all the time yet you dont communicate or even just spend some quality time together. I also had a friend like that who would rather be in the midst of strangers than the people he knows. I also think such people may have been brought up by parents who were always away from them maybe working or travelling so whenever they would want to talk to someone no one is ever there to listen to them this making them grow up knowing or thinking that they are not loved.
-
I have wondered what causes the inability to bond. I suppose an insecure childhood is a reason, perhaps the need for novelty is another. But if you meet someone whose best friend changes, who is seen with this crew then that crew and there is no permanent person or people, it is clear the idea of being ‘faithful’ does not exist in their minds.

I am always interested in James Bond facts and trivia. Was not aware the character was based on two real life spies. Always thought Fleming was drawing from his own experience in government intelligence. Don’t remember where I came across this tidbit, but I think the name “James Bond” is a real person’s name. But Ian Fleming did not know the person. He just happened to see the person’s name written or displayed somewhere and thought it sounded perfect! 🙂
-
Fleming had a house in Jamaica, on the North Coast, (Goldeneye) where he wrote his novels. James Bond wrote a book about birds of Jamaica, which is where he got the name.
-
Thank you! I couldn’t remember the story behind the name. I do remember the guy’s wife was upset about it because life was never the same for the couple after Secret Agent 007 became so popular. 🙁
-
Fleming’s house is still there and they named the little airport after him.
-
-
In fact, I have read that earlier Bond Movies and novels were more realistic. Later movies had Bond doing more unrealistic things.
-
When Ian Fleming wrote Bond; 50s/60s he didn’t go too far beyond what he knew or what was possible. He wasn’t writing fantasy fiction. When he died the ‘franchise’ continued getting more and more away from real.

wow, this is an awesome review of james bond, i always thaought the he was just a fictional character that doesn’ exist at all.
anyway, james bond had been famous ever since the early 80s, when i was still a kiddo, mom loves james bond back then.
anymore real life story?
how about harry potter?-
There is ‘John Blackthorne’ who I have written about and a real Robinson Crusoe.

The movies dramatized by the director on James Bond are the best movies of its age and people like it most and James Bond became famous all over the world but actually it is fictional character but most popular character on earth, known to the whole world people.
But The first official EON Productions James Bond film, Dr. No, was released in 1962. It opened with the gun barrel sequence that would become a trademark of the series. James Bond, played by stuntman Bob Simmons, walked along a white backdrop, shown through the view of a henchman’s gun barrel.
Aware that he was being watched, Bond quickly turned and shot the assassin. Blood dripped down the screen, the gun barrel trailing off and opening to reveal the main titles.
-
It is not a total fantasy. Ian Fleming had been a spy, had heard of Sidney Reilly from his superiors, met William Stephenson.

WOW! The real life story is equally as fascinating as the fictional account.

Adams had a very interesting life and his son grew up to take his name and be a Samurai. Adams is buried in Japan and has a special grave.

Point taken but why do i have to work so hard to be cool when i can still be myself and be loved by all. being cool is too much work and takes a lot of energy and time. but i believe it’s only now that people do this things but back in the days people never had the time to do such things, what do you benefit out of being cool in high school anyway. that’s something that we need to remember that when we get cool in school will we need this coolness in the outside world when we are done with school?
-
High School is that twilight zone where one travels from being a child to being an adult. Who and what you admire/despise; aspire/reject; accept/refute; are set at High School.
Where you are at the bottom, a loser, rejected, left out, you miss a lot of the necessary information that will help you in life. Life isn’t just grades or rules, you have to know how people view things. YOu may not agree, but at least you are exposed.
-
What society label as cool doesn’t seem to be so cool.It seem to be an act of ignorants to walk around with your pants down and smoken blunts.I just pray for my up comen youth.Its cool to study and work hard.I want to start that trend.A new cool way to be cool
-
Ahh, yeah… that repulsive new ‘style’. Horrible. Yes, Tariq… one of the things you might research is the ‘down low’. These are men who claim to be straight but have sex with other men. The clue was wearing the pants low… so that a guy walking into a club with two girls could give the signal he wanted sex with men to another guy with girls, and they’d link.

Being a cool kid in high school has it’s pros and cons. And according to me i think tryi ng to be a cool kid requires you to be on top of everything. you have to have the money to treat others the way that you want, you have to have the coolest and trendiest clothing in the school, you have to have stuff that other students cannot afford, there is just so much that you need to have and do. In this case most kids don’t even have to be clever to be recognized or be famous all you need is money. And that for me could be very tasking i would rather be that silent student who does well in their studies and is respectable that is what counts at the end of the day.
-
It is not all money. It is attitude as well. Many rich kids have parents who don’t spoil them. The parents could buy the best but don’t so the child fits in.

What happens sometimes when you’re too bright is you wind up being drafted into doing homework for the school king or queen.

I never had any high school, the most was a 5th former, no graduation stuff or promps either.
I sure envy western style, high school must had been fun and cool -
We went to school from 5yrs to 12 at Primary; then from 12 – 14 at Jr. High, then from 14 – 17 at High School. So usually by Jr. High things start to bubble

It is always good and advisable to learn from people who have gone ahead of you in every field of life.
We can stand taller and see farther when we climb on the shoulders of our predecessors.
Imagine if Brazil sought those kind of advices, the Olympics would have been a better and different one
Precisely. They could have gifted tickets to civil servants or members of organisations or anything and filled those stadia. But they know everything.
You should see how bad the rooms were. Many Jamaicans were put into unfinished rooms with virtually nothing in there. Usain bought his own T.V. because there was none in his room.
It is said that experience is the father study and practical field as you have explained in detail what you have experienced in the party and play ground.
Really cutting a large cake into equal pieces is very difficult but first time later every body learns how to cut a large cake in the party or at home alone or among the people.
I see the stadium is empty and there are less watchers in the play ground and the tickets given to the needy free of cast effort proves in vain and people did not come to watch the match.
Al the seats remained empty because people have lost interest in games
as I have seen. But peoples’ interest is increasing in wrestling and football match.
What we do it is the matter of people’s interest what they watch free of buying tickets. No matter let the people do their work in all field of life.
They didn’t give away the tickets. They didn’t go to schools. They didn’t do that. Had they done that it would have been a packed stadium.
We ar3 often told that we should learn from experien a and what better people to learn from then from those who have been there and some that. There is nothing as bad as trying or doing something that you do not know or ha e never experienced it can turn out to be the most embarrassing thing ever.
Usually I have seen people who have gone to top notch restaurants or hotels for dinners or something. You will see them walk majestically to their reserved table and while there you would see them fidgitting not knowing how to seat or where to place their handbags. So there is that panic and unsettling feeling that someone is watching. So someone will decide let me just do what i know and that’s when they mess up. I guess if I can speak for myself, if I was in a place where I do not know or I feel am inexperienced what I do is just sit back and watch people for a little while, see how they behave and carry themselves around. From there I would have an idea of what to do and how to go about it and avoid unnecessary attention.
Yes. That is the right way to deal with things… not to be presumptuous, not to proceed as if you know everything. And ask for help
