Rebellion

Family dynamics can change radically when one member has a sickness and disability and needs a lot of care. It was difficult for all of us. My relationship with them had been one of rebellion and defiance, typical for a precocious teenager in the 60s and a 20-year-old in the 70s. I didn t want to share their house or their values, but there I was, completely dependent on them again, and they were pretty much stuck with me in this condition. There was nothing to do but submit to this child role. I didn t know if I d get well or not, but I felt stronger after a couple of years, and that had to be good enough. I stayed with my parents for almost three years. 

When one thinks of student-led rebellions and the changes they can create, one typically thinks of the struggles of the twentieth century, such as the civil rights movement or anti-war protests of the sixties. But there have been less dramatic, though no less passionate, rebel-0) lions led by young activists in previous centuries—rebellions that had... 

By burning anything to ashes you may gain its salt. If in this dissolution the sulphur and mercury be kept apart, and restored to its salt, you may once more obtain that form which was destroyed by the process of combustion. This assertion the wise of this world denounce as the greatest folly, and count as a rebellion,... 

Doria was not surprised, therefore, to read in the compendium that Balsamo had visited Rome in 1789 with the deliberate intention of inciting rebellion among the city s poor and in the crowded criminal sectors. Secreted among his papers, the investigators discovered a prophecy that Pius VI would be the last pope. With unbelief roaring through France, the Holy Father had naturally feared that the infection might spread to his own... 

The first sentence in the paragraph introduced the topic and expressed its main idea it is the paragraph s topic sentence. The next seven sentences develop and support that idea. Then, the last two sentences conclude the paragraph well. They remind readers of the main idea (the country s unstable past) and lead them into the next paragraph by introducing the 1997 rebellion that removed Sese Seko from power. 

Cannizzaro, S. Justus Liebigs Ann. Chem. 1853, 88, 129. Stanislao Cannizzaro (1826-1910) was bom in Palermo, Sicily, Italy. In 1847, he had to escape to Paris for participating in the Sicilian Rebellion. Upon his return to Italy, he discovered benzyl alcohol synthesis hy the action of potassium hydroxide on benzaldehyde. Political interests brought Cannizzaro to the Italian Senate and he later became its vice president. 

In 1860 Cannizzaro, now teaching at the University of Genoa, heard that rebellion had again broken out in Sicily. He traveled there to participate but this time he arrived too late. The red shirts led by Guiseppe Garibaldi had already freed Sicily. It was at about this time that Cannizzarro received an invitation to attend the conference at Karlsruhe. Because there was no revolution to become involved in, he accepted at once. 

But serfs, peasants, and even free tradespersons were no match for the heavily equipped noble who had been trained in arms since early childhood. Thus in 1381, when these classes revolted against the English ruling class, some carried only sticks, some swords covered with rust, some merely axes and others bows more reddened with age and smoke than old ivory, many of their arrows had only one plume. The leaders of the rebellion were tricked and the followers soon routed. 

Following the end of the French and Indian War, disputes over the taxation and treatment of the colonists as well as their political rights eventually boiled over into revolution. In 1777, British colonial undersecretary William Knox proposed that to forestall rebellion.
