First, research began with the question: What are the opinions of Iraqi politicians and political leaders of the United States of America (U.S.), United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (U.K), and Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R.) atomic testing and policy in the 1950s?

The situation in Chechnya is out of hand, a senseless echo of Stalin in a day where the expression of such rank evil should not occur or be tolerated. An interview with a local Chechen refugee solidified my understanding of the situation. However, meeting a survivor face-to-face also made the situation seem more real and therefore much more painful. When asked to comment on the film "Crying Sun," my subject took a deep breath. "This is just like what happened in our village," she said. There were

A Comparison of Haydn's Symphony No. 95 with Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 Introduction As noted by Robert Hughes, "Beethoven was not only the embodiment of all that was before him, but also of that which was yet to come" (Hughes 486). The truth of this may be seen by comparing Beethoven's 5th Symphony in C Minor to Haydn, the father of Symphony, and his 95th in C Minor.
