Cliff Huntley: USS Dale was only about six years old when we first arrived at Pearl Harbor. At that time Dale and our sister Farragut-class destroyers were the cutting edge of the U.S. Navy’s Pacific Fleet. Our job was to get in front of the nation’s trouble, and we tin can sailors were mighty proud of that fact. Those of us who had been on Dale for a while walked with a swagger the new guys just couldn’t step into right away.
Alvis Harris: Along about mid-November, we got orders to go out west of Pearl a couple of hundred miles with our sister tin can, Aylwin, to pick up the SS Komikura Maru with Japanese Ambassador [Kichisaburo] Nomura aboard, who was on his way to Washington, D.C., for peace talks. We escorted the ambassador into Pearl, where he disembarked from Maru and embarked on a Matson liner for the States and his meeting in Washington
Herman Gaddis: While the Japanese ambassador was boarding the Matson liner, we took up an antisubmarine patrol off Diamond Head. Our orders were to pick up the Matson liner when she left Pearl and escort her to the States. We were all looking forward to liberty in San Diego. But almost immediately we picked up a submarine on sonar that we could not identify and nobody in the fleet would claim. While we were engaged with that sub the Matson liner left Honolulu with another ship as its escort. We missed our trip back to the States, which made us all very unhappy.
We sat on top of that submarine for about three days, waiting for something to happen. The sub would move here and there a little bit, but mostly it just sat on the bottom just off Diamond Head and did nothing. We didn’t know who that sub belonged to, and as we were not at war or anything, there really was nothing we could do. So finally we just backed off and let it go.
When war with Japan became inevitable, the American government sent warnings to all of its military commands and political posts in the Pacific, including those of the Army and Navy in Hawaii. The Americans knew the Japanese were preparing to attack, but had convinced themselves the attack would take place in the Philippines.
Most certainly it would not come at Pearl Harbor. This wishful thinking provided the perfect cover for Vice Adm. Chuichi Nagumo’s carrier strike force, which arrived at a point 200 miles north of Pearl Harbor early on the morning of December 7.
At 6 a.m. Nagumo’s six carriers began launching the first wave of airplanes. Months of training were about to culminate in an operation that would commit Japan to a war with the industrial might of the United States.
Harold Reichert: Some mornings, the waters of Pearl Harbor would be so still the seaplane pilots could not see where to land, and so we’d have to send out the motor whaleboat to stir up the water a bit. On mornings like that, you could always pick up the smells of fuel oil mixed with tropical flowers, and after a week or two at sea those smells were mighty inviting. My Sunday morning ritual at Pearl was to sit out on the fantail with a cup of coffee and a newspaper and enjoy the early sun and those tropical airs.
There were ninety-six ships in Pearl Harbor that morning and no reason to expect any trouble. After all, the Honolulu Advertiser I was reading told how Japanese Ambassador Nomura was going to meet with Secretary Cordell Hull in Washington that very morning to talk about peace.
Dellman Smith: I was sitting on a forward torpedo tube with a cup of coffee, talking with Humphrey. We saw a big bunch of airplanes coming in over the mountains and got to wondering which carrier they belonged to.
They could not be coming from Saratoga, because she was in dry dock in Bremerton, nor Enterprise, because she was participating in an exercise way down south somewhere. And Lexington had just gone to sea Saturday, so it was doubtful her planes were flying back already. It just didn’t make any sense. So we watched as they flew in from the mountains. Then, when they got to about a hundred yards away, Humphrey jumped up and said: “ They’re Japanese!”
Don Schneider: I had messenger duty that night, which meant I didn’t get to sleep until 4 in the morning. I was working as a mess cook, so my bunk space was down in the mess hall, where there were always a lot of guys coming and going. Mess cooks were at the bottom of the ship’s totem pole, and sleeping mess cooks were fair game for whoever happened to come through. When someone came by yelling that the Japs were attacking, I yelled back, “Go to hell!” and rolled over for more sleep.

Tell the story of [your first day of school], following this rule: each sentence begins with the last letter of the previous sentence.
Explanation:
Indian summer in a small Midwestern suburb, a hot, hot day in early September.
His heavy book bag slung over his shoulder, Jim Martin—slim, sandy-haired, freckled—trudged along the pitted sidewalk at 7:30 this morning, on his way to Thomas Jefferson Middle School.
He walked slowly, enjoying the heat, enjoying the spongy feel of his new running shoes, enjoying the familiar sights along the route.
It wasn’t really a very nice building. Single story, squat, yellowish stone. Nothing stood out except the tall flagpole that would ring like a clock chime when the rope slapped it on windy days. Today, in the still air, the pole was silent.
Taking a shortcut through a hedge, Jim walked over the football field, dew leaping from the toes of his shoes, grasshoppers jumping out of his path.

This Christian organization placed an emphasis on communal living and self-sacrifice. Moral Majority Focus on the Family Trinity Crusade Children of God
Answer:
Christian ethics, which is also referred to as moral theology, is a multi-faceted ethical system: it is a virtue ethic which focuses on building moral character, and a deontological ethic (divine command theory) which assesses choices. It also incorporates natural law ethics, which is built on the belief that it is the very nature of humans – created in the image of God and capable of morality, cooperation, rationality, discernment and so on – that informs how life should be lived, and that awareness of sin does not require special revelation.[1]:93 Other aspects of Christian ethics, represented by movements such as the social Gospel and liberation theology, may be combined into a fourth area sometimes
Which number on the map represents the continent of Antarctica?
A) 3
B) 5
C) 6
D) 7
7 number on the map represents the continent of Antarctica. The correct option is D.
What makes the continent of Antarctica Very unique?The only continent without continuous human occupancy is Antarctica. There are, however, permanent human settlements where, on a rotational basis, scientists and support workers spend a portion of the year living. Much of the Antarctic region is made up of the Antarctic continent.
Antarctica is the southernmost continent on Earth, located almost entirely within the Antarctic Circle. It is the fifth-largest continent, covering an area of approximately 14 million square kilometers.
Antarctica is known for its extremely cold and dry climate, with temperatures reaching as low as -89 degrees Celsius (-129 degrees Fahrenheit) and very little precipitation.
It is also characterized by its vast ice sheets and glaciers, which hold approximately 70% of the world's fresh water. Despite its harsh conditions, Antarctica is home to a wide variety of unique plant and animal life, including penguins, seals, and various types of algae and lichens.
The continent is governed by the Antarctic Treaty System, which sets aside the region as a scientific preserve and prohibits military activity and resource exploitation.
Thus, the ideal selection is option D.

Space exploration of any kind costs billions of dollars. Some people argue that it is well worth the cost because of the discoveries that are made that ultimately benefit everyone.

How did the slave trade affect Africans?
Answer:
Explanation:
Slaves were often treated as part of their owner's family, rather than simply property. The distribution of gender among enslaved peoples under traditional lineage slavery saw women as more desirable slaves due to demands for domestic labor and for reproductive reasons.
“It was my privilege to attend the All African People’s Conference held in Ghana. The conference was significant because it brought together the most representative gathering of African leaders ever assembled. There were about 300 delegates representing some 65 organizations coming from 28 African countries. Of the nine independent African countries only one, Sudan was not represented.
The nationalist organizations were represented by their top leadership. Therefore, whether the colonial powers like it or not, the decisions of the conference must be taken with some seriousness. The conference announced clearly that African freedom and independence are a necessity, and that the struggle to achieve independence would continue. The conference’s declaration on colonialism and imperialism significantly called upon ‘the independent African states to render maximum assistance by every means possible to the dependent peoples in their struggle.’ The final decision of the conference was to commend nonviolent methods but also to endorse other methods if they are deemed necessary.
Presently, there is negligible Russian influence in Africa. Nevertheless, this influence will grow unless the problem of racism in the multi-racial areas of Africa is solved. It is my opinion that American influence will decline steadily unless the United States is much more vocal in its support of responsible movements for independence in Africa. The United States does not need to be as cautious as it currently is.”

Answer: Concurring opinion
Explanation:
A Concurring opinion is what a Supreme Court Judge issues when they agree with the majority decision but for different reasons. This is where the term gets it name, the Judge concurs with the majority opinion, but has other opinions as well.
A concurring opinion is simply an opinion by the judge and so it is not to form part of judicial precedent as it is not legally binding. Even though that is the case however, lawyers can still refer to them to argue a case which falls under an area of law with no binding precedent already existing.

What is meant by land encroachment ?When someone infringes on the property rights of a landowner, this is called encroachment. Unlawfully entering a building or property, or accidentally or purposely extending a portion of the building into another person's structure.
Although there is a very fine line separating the two, land encroachment is also also referred to as property encroachment. Let's look at an illustration to show how these two differ from one another. Let's say Ms. Shweta purchased land in Noida and neglected it—that is, she did not build anything there.
Shweta visits the site later and notices a wall has been constructed around her land. This is encroachment on private property.
