William Seward wasn't necessarily seen as a "great white man" for buying Alaska. He was ridiculed about it until the rest of the United States realized that Alaska could make them rich. Seward saw Alaska's potential and fought for the U.S. to get hold of the land despite much criticism. It is true that Alaska Natives t...

In the 21st century, dog meat is consumed in many parts of China,[3] Korea[4] and Vietnam,[5] parts of Thailand, Switzerland,[6] as well as parts of Europe, Americas, the African continent, such as Cameroon, Ghana and Liberia. Today, a number of cultures view the consumption of dog meat to be a part of their tradition...

Some diners believe the more an animal suffers before it dies, the tastier its meat, which may explain the brutal way dogs are killed in Vietnam – usually by being bludgeoned to death with a heavy metal pipe (this can take 10 to 12 blows), having their throats slit, being stabbed in the chest with a large knife, or bei...

I was trying to be semi-sarcastic so don't take it so literally. The early social, political, and religious refugees who came to the US of A before it was the US of A to escape oppression became the oppressors themselves so in some ironic twist, the current native-born population today do have a plausible fear of refug...

The high Dam at Devils Canyon w/ Watana as a water flow regulator to maximize the electric output did not pencil out 3 decades ago.
