Timeline of United States inventions (1890–1945)
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
A timeline of United States inventions (1890–1945) encompasses the ingenuity and innovative advancements of the United States within a historical context, dating from the Progressive Era to the end of World War II, which have been achieved by inventors who are either native-born or naturalized citizens of the United States. Copyright protection secures a person's right to his or her first-to-invent claim of the original invention in question, highlighted in Article I, Section 8, Clause 8 of the United States Constitution which gives the following enumerated power to the United States Congress:
In 1641, the first patent in North America was issued to Samuel Winslow by the General Court of Massachusetts for a new method of making salt. On April 10, 1790, President George Washington signed the Patent Act of 1790 (1 Stat. 109) into law which proclaimed that patents were to be authorized for any useful art, manufacture, engine, machine, or device, or any improvement therein not before known or used. On July 31, 1790, Samuel Hopkins of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, became the first person in the United States to file and to be granted a patent under the new U.S. patent statute. The Patent Act of 1836 (Ch. 357, 5 Stat. 117) further clarified United States patent law to the extent of establishing a patent office where patent applications are filed, processed, and granted, contingent upon the language and scope of the claimant's invention, for a patent term of 14 years with an extension of up to an additional 7 years.From 1836 to 2011, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has granted a total of 7,861,317 patents relating to several well-known inventions appearing throughout the timeline below. Some examples of patented inventions between the years 1890 and 1945 include John Froelich's tractor (1892), Ransom Eli Olds' assembly line (1901), Willis Carrier's air-conditioning (1902), the Wright Brothers' airplane (1903), and Robert H. Goddard's liquid-fuel rocket (1926).
Freedman's Bank 150th Anniversary Celebration
On March 3, 2015, Operation HOPE Forums and the Afro-American History Society of the National Archives (AAHS) will recognize the 150th anniversary of the Freedman's Bank. Established on March 3, 1865, by President Abraham Lincoln, the Bank was a landmark institution that had over $57 million in deposits and 70,000 depositors. The Bank's records remain the single largest repository of lineage-linked African-American genealogy, containing upwards of 480,000 names.
Members of AAHS will present Freedman's Bank records at the National Archives, and there will be a moderated discussion with Operation HOPE Founder John Hope Bryant, Ambassador Andrew Young, ESSENCE Magazine Editor-In-Chief Vanessa DeLuca, and other dignitaries on the historical significance of the Bank and how its unfinished journey still resonates today in issues of poverty, income inequality, and race relations. A reception will follow.
The event is free and open to the public, register online.

Wilder School Opioid Panel Discussion February 2018
The Wilder School held a panel about the nation’s opioid epidemic on Tuesday, February 6, that focused on how the deterioration of communities has invited and encouraged drug use and crime.
“The Opioid Epidemic: Impact on Communities,” examined the epidemic from a variety of perspectives and also looks at access to health care and public opinion on treatment. The panel follows the theme of this year’s VCU Common Book, “Dreamland: The True Tale of America’s Opioid Epidemic” by Sam Quinones.

◆Huh Kyung Young?
Kyung Young Huh was born on the very first day of 1950 under Joong Rang bridge in Seoul. When he was given birth, his father was in jail because the father was suspected as a communist for giving his land to people without getting any money. Korean war began on 25th of June 1950, so Huh had to go down to Jinju, south of Seoul. Huh’s mother died when he was four in Korean age. He was grown up by a farmer after his mother passed away.
He was given a duty of raising a calf. He raised the calf very well and it grew up as a healthy and fat cow. One day, the farmer took the cow to a butcher and killed it. Huh saw the shocking moment when the cow he cherished got killed and he decided to leave from the farmer. With all the hardship he managed to come back to Seoul where he was born.
He had to survive and he tried many jobs such as a stuntman, slipper seller, shoe cleaner. He even sold his blood in order to live. One day while selling sandles, he met Byung Chul Lee, the founder of Samsung. Huh asked Mr. Lee to buy the sandles for him. Huh said to the man that he needed money to keep going to school. Mr. Lee asked Huh to come inside his house and listened to what Huh says. Mr. Lee thought Huh was a brilliant student. So he asked huh to stay at his house. Huh became foster son of Byung Chul Lee after that day.
President of Republic of Korea, Jeong Hee Park had many worries. One day Byung Chul Lee introduces his foster son, Huh to President Park. Mr. Lee says Huh will be helpful for the nation. Huh gives idea such as New Town Exercise (Sae Ma Eul Woon Dong) to the president which enabled Korea to boom economically. He also tries to buy Lake Baikal in Russia in order to secure clean water in the future.
Then, Huh became forty. He comes out as a candidate for presidency three times. In 2007, at his third try, he was able to get attention of the nation because of his interesting words. He says he can levitate, fold spaces, heal people by making people look at his eyes. He also comes out with innovative promises such as giving 30 million won for every birth. 100 million won for every marriage, moving UN headquarter to Pan Moon Jumb, Borderline of South and North Korea.
He is now giving lectures to people who are worried about future of South Korea. You can listen to his lectures at Youtube. He is willing to become the 20th President of Republic of Korea and after he makes Korea a wonderful place to live. He will unite the world as one country and he will make the world without weapons, borderline, and different currency.
But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, (Matthew 6:3)

Captains Courageous by Rudyard Kipling
Real men don't take guff from snotty kids. Neither does Disko Troop, skipper of the We're Here, a fishing schooner out of Gloucester, Massachusetts, when his crew fishes Harvey Cheyne out of the Atlantic. There's no place on the Grand Banks for bystanders, so Harvey is press-ganged into service as a replacement for a man lost overboard and drowned. Harvey is heir to a vast fortune, but his rescuers believe none of what he tells them of his background. Disko won't take the boat to port until it is full of fish, so Harvey must settle in for a season at sea. Hard, dangerous work and performing it alongside a grab-bag of characters in close quarters is a life-changing experience.

SUMMARY
=======
Agriculture is a major industry in the United States, which is a net exporter of food. As of the 2007 census of agriculture, there were 2.2 million farms, covering an area of 922 million acres (3,730,000 km2), an average of 418 acres (169 hectares) per farm. Although agricultural activity occurs in every state in the union, it is particularly concentrated in the Great Plains, a vast expanse of flat, arable land in the center of the nation in the region around the Great Lakes known as the Corn Belt.The U.S. was a leader in seed improvement i.e. hybridization and in expanding uses for crops from the work of George Washington Carver to the development of bioplastics and biofuels. The mechanization of farming and intensive farming have been major themes in U.S. history, including John Deere's steel plow, Cyrus McCormick's mechanical reaper, Eli Whitney's cotton gin to the widespread success of the Fordson tractor and the combine harvesters first made from them. Modern agriculture in the U.S. ranges from the common hobby farms, small-scale producers to large commercial farming covering thousands of acres of cropland or rangeland.
