John Dalton was born on September 6, 1766, Eaglesfield, England. He was born into a Quaker Family, his grandfather was a shoemaker, and his father, Joseph, was a weaver. Daltons parents got married in 1755 and bother families where Quakers.John had two surviving siblings of a young age, both he and his brother were born color-blinded. In his early studies, Dalton wanted a formal education, but his family had not enough wealth. He wanted to get his family in a better economic finances and he started to work. As young as 12 years old, Dalton started to teach English and helping people in school. Later on Dalton published “Elements of English Grammar” in 1801. This young scientist is recognized by being the first person to describe the color blindness, this called , Daltonism. The Englishman was one of the very first scientist to decide that all matter is made up of a very small particle, something now a days named

The majority of his outstanding contributions and conclusions that this brilliant scientist was able to create and understand , still stand and are being used today in chemistry and in other scientific areas. Dalton’s atomic theory is a very famous and complex theory about the atoms. Dalton not only found a way to have the “weight of an atom”, but he also changed the understanding of chemistry and improved the progress of the modern science. The splitting of the atom could not had been successfully completed without Dalton laying the foundation of the understanding about the atomic makeup of the simple and complex molecules. His discoveries allowed the cost-efficient of manufacturing the chemical compounds and the exact proportions in a compound.He became an official member of the Royal Society in 1822, he was able to received his first Royal medal in
William Clark was ½ of the genius team that made their way through miles of unknown land, unknown nature, unknown natives, and came home with all but one voyager, who was killed of natural causes. William Clark and Meriwether Lewis were the first Americans to try and map the Louisiana Purchase area, and not only did they map it, they discovered allies, new plants and animals, and discovered new land and water routes that could be useful for future travelers.
The cathode ray tube was invented in 1875 by the name of Sir Williams Crooke. Yet he wasn’t the one to make the big discovery. In 1897, a man by the name of J.J. Thompson conducted a series of experiments to prove the existence of subatomic particles. He wasn’t 100% correct with all of his claims he made but broke the theory John Dalton stated that the smallest form matter could be broken down to was an atom. Having shown the world that there was smaller than an atom, it later caused others to question and dive even deeper.
“Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle,” (John 19:17-18). Jesus Christ’s valiant life was terminated with a horrendous execution. Tom Robinson’s did as well. He lived his life in the name in the name of others, helping everyone that he could, going out of his way to save people, even Judas, who would betray him. Tom did this aswell, constantly assisting Mayella, she who would betray him in court. Jesus had followers who believed in his message, just as Tom had believers in his innocence. Jesus and his followers would face persecution, just as Tom and hisi believers would. The judgements and death sentences of Jesus and Tom would make them become martyrs. The Martyrdoms would be essential for their causes. Many aspects of Tom Robinson’s life and death
Edward Barry Dalton is the only member of the regiment to have been the subject of a previously published work. A short biography including a selection of the surgeon’s wartime official correspondence entitled Memorial of Edward B. Dalton M.D. was complied and published as a tribute by his brother John Call Dalton shortly after his death in 1872. (John Call Dalton, Memorial of Edward B. Dalton)
In The United States the number of people in prison is over two million, and of those two million it is estimated that two thirds of them will be back in prison within three years (Correctional Populations). Some people argue that rehabilitation is the most effective way to handle prisoners, but the risks don’t outweigh the benefits, especially for murderers. Nobles was an example of a murderer who appeared rehabilitated, but under close examination of his actions, he was no more than a manipulating sociopath. Nobles was not rehabilitated because his actions in court showed how he felt, his faith was a facade, and he was a schizophrenic.
Dalton’s atomic theory, which stated “the atoms were tiny, indivisible, indestructible particles” (Bender), differed drastically from that of the Greeks’ in that it “wasn’t just a philosophical statement that there are atoms because there must be atoms” (Bender). Although Aristotle believed that there are four terrestrial elements, earth, water, air, and fire, Democratus believed that “a piece of a substance can be divided into smaller pieces of that substance until we get down to a fundamental level at which you can’t divide the substance up and still have pieces of that substance” (“Atoms”). Aristotle’s theory was popular, but incorrect; Democratus’s was closer to our current theory, yet he remained relatively unpopular and obscure. This demonstrates of the key way in which a personal point of view can, in fact, retard the pursuit of knowledge. The scientist with the better oratory abilities has his theories more widely accepted. Dalton’s own theory, which extrapolated upon four basic
Richard Taylor was a Confederate soldier. He followed after his dad’s footsteps and became a great man and one that many will remember. He made the Confederates proud by leading them to a lot of victories.
William J. Donavan was born January 1, 1883 in Buffalo New York. He was of Irish descent to first generation immigrant parents. As a young man growing up in the early 19th century, Donovan attended College at Columbia University located in Upper Manhattan, New York City. While attending Columbia University he was also a star football player, this is where he got the Nickname “Wild Bill” for his aggressive and intense style of playing. William Donovan Graduated from Columbia’s prestigious law school in 1905. Upon graduation he became a prominent lawyer on New York’s Wall Street.
In January of 1939, a man was born by the name of Bruce Tressler in Connersville, Indiana. His parents came from Cincinnati on his father’s side and his mother came from Shelby county, Indiana. At the time, Connersville was a very big industrial town. Connersville was also known as Little Detroit in the 1920s because there were factories in Connersville that made cars. Then when war came upon the United States, all of the factories turned to something in the war production. Bruce’s early years were remembered with sights of war and victory and news of the atomic bombs that were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. During that time, rationing was a big memory for the time period. Meat and butter were highly rationed in Bruce’s childhood. Growing up in this tie proved to be on of the best experiences for Bruce. He was always outside and acting like a kid should. Him and his friends used their imaginations a lot as was the trend at the time. After the war was over, Bruce attended grade school at Maplewood School. His junior high school and high school days were largely influenced by the great economic boom of the 50s.
John was born in New York City on December 12, 1745. His paternal family members were of French Huguenot stock, were wealthy and had become successful merchants. His maternal family was of solid Dutch American background, and also had become, not
For centuries, physicists and philosophers alike have wondered what makes up our universe. Aristotle thought that all matter came in one of four forms: Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. Since then we have come a long way, with the discovery of the atoms and the subatomic particles they are made of. We can even guess at what makes up protons and neutrons. We have since then discovered and predicted the existence of particles other than the atom, such as the photon, neutrino, axion, and many others.
John Dalton was born on September 6 1766 at Eagelsfield, Cumbria in England.Although he was born in England, he spent most of his life in Manchester.He was born into a Quaker family and while his family had food, they were still poor. His father Joseph was a weaver and John recieved most of his early education from his father. At the age of 12, John opened a school in Eagelsfield where he was the master. He was often threatened by the older boys who wanted to fight him because he was smarter, but he managed to keep in control for 2 years.Due to a poor salary, John was forced to leave his school and work in the fields with his brother. In 1781 John and his brother moved to Kendall. There John, his cousin George, and his brother ran a school where they offered English,Latin,Greek,French and twenty one mathematics and science course. Their school had sixty pupils. After twelve years at Kendall John started doing lectures and answering questions for mens magazines. John found a mentor in John Gough,who was the blind son of a wealthy tradesman. John Gough taught Dalton languages,mathematics,and optics. In 1973 John moved to Manchester as a tutor at New College. He immediately joined the Manchester Literary and Philosophical Society and in the same year he published his first book: Meteorological Observations and Essays. In his book Dalton stated that gas exits and acts independantly and purely physically not chemically. After six years of tutoring, John resigned to conduct private research while still doing tutoring at 2 shillings a lesson. In 1802 John stated his law of partial pressures. When two elastic fluids are mixed together ( A and B) they dont repel each other. A particles do not repel B particles but a B particle will repel another B particle. One of his experiments involved the addition of water vapor to dry air. The increase in pressure was the same as the pressure of the added water. By doing this experiment, John established a relationship between vapor pressure and temperature. John’s interest in gases arose from his studies of meteorology. He had weather equipment that was with him at all times and he was constantly studying weather and atmosphere. He also kept a journal throughout his life in which he wrote over 200,000 observations. In 1803, John made his biggest contribution to science: The Atomic Theory.
John Dalton, born 6th September 1766, is known for developing the theory of the elements and compounds atomic mass and weights and his research in colour blindness.
Dalton was the first person to develop a scientific atom theory, the ancient Greeks had ideas about the atom but could not prove it scientifically. Antoine Lavoisier and Dalton are responsible for the discovery of 90 natural elements. Dalton also explained the variations of water vapor in the atmosphere, the basis of meteorology. Dalton’s atomic theory says that each element contains its own number of atoms. Each element has its own size and weight.
Then, in 1766 was born a man named John Dalton born in England. He is known as
