The timings of these values are very similar to the plot given in the textbook example, which suggests that the minimum daily temperature occurs at 06:00 and the maximum is at 18:00. The highest temperature in the current data occurs slightly earlier, which may be due to the fact that Alberta was observing DST (Botkin & Keller, 2011).

American Indians are an integral part of the great history of this nation, but many of us in the modern world just view them via various stereotypes. Most people know little about the history of the native tribes who lived for many centuries in this land, and were almost exterminated upon the arrival of Europeans. Before 1492, when Columbus landed on the American continent, historians estimate that there were anywhere between seven to twenty five million Native Americans inhabiting this continent. Sadly ninety percent of this population has been erased by illness, hunger, battles and relocation.

One of the achievements was his objection of the national bank claiming excessive foreign influence in national issues of the United States.

African resistance to colonial powers has an extensive history that dates before the nineteenth century. The responses to colonial rule varied by location, religion, and resources that included both violent and nonviolent tactics. It is important to note that most rebellions were complex and strategically planned in the rising intolerance of colonial rule on the continent of Africa. Although Europeans aimed to divide and conquer, they did not always successfully change relationships among African communities who worked together in resistance.
Nonetheless, foreign colonial powers were successful in recruiting tribes to assist in conquering other tribes who were in conflict. ...

In order to curb this abuse of welfare, the proposition has been made in various state and federal legislatures to implement drug testing policies for welfare recipients. The argument is that this screening would weed out drug users who might theoretically ...
