Question: Who claimed victory at the first battle of bull run?

Answer: The Confederacy led by Confederate President Jefferson Davis won the Battle of Bull Run, with military commanders P. G. T. Beauregard, Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson and Joseph E. Johnston.

Answer: The First Battle of Bull Run, the name used by Union forces, also known as the Battle of First Manassas, the name used by Confederate forces, was the first major battle of the American Civil War. It was a victory for the Confederacy, followed by a disorganized retreat of the Union forces. P. G. T. Beauregard, a Confederate general officer, Thomas "Stonewall Jackson, who became one of the best-known Confederate commanders after General Robert E. Lee, and Joseph E. Johnston, one of the most senior general officers of the Confederate States Army, claimed victory at the First Battle of Bull Run. Jefferson Davis, who served as the president of the Confederate States from 1861 to 1865, also claimed it as a victory.

and men; nevertheless, the Confederates, who had been planning to attack the Union left flank, found themselves at an initial disadvantage. Confederate reinforcements under Brig. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston arrived from the Shenandoah Valley by railroad, and the course of the battle quickly changed. A brigade of Virginians under the relatively unknown brigadier general from the Virginia Military Institute, Thomas J. Jackson, stood its ground, which resulted in Jackson receiving his famous nickname, "Stonewall". The Confederates launched a strong counterattack, and as the Union troops began withdrawing under fire, many panicked and the retreat turned into a rout. McDowell's men

George Sykes, collapsed the Confederate line shortly after 11:30 a.m., sending them in a disorderly retreat to Henry House Hill. As they retreated from their Matthews Hill position, the remainder of Evans's, Bee's, and Bartow's commands received some cover from Capt. John D. Imboden and his battery of four 6-pounder guns, who held off the Union advance while the Confederates attempted to regroup on Henry House Hill.

Along the route soldiers often broke ranks to wander off to pick apples or blackberries or to get water, regardless of the orders of their officers to remain in ranks. The Confederate Army of the Potomac (21,883 effectives) under Beauregard was encamped near Manassas Junction, approximately 25 miles (40 km) from the United States capital. McDowell planned to attack this numerically inferior enemy army. Union Maj. Gen. Robert Patterson's 18,000 men engaged Johnston's force (the Army of the Shenandoah at 8,884 effectives, augmented

On Henry Hill Beauregard had also limited his control to the regimental level, generally allowing the battle to continue on its own and only reacting to Union moves. Johnston's decision to transport his infantry to the battlefield by rail played a major role in the Confederate victory. Although the trains were slow and a lack

Question: What did germany have to pay after ww2?

Answer: After World War II ended, Germany had to pay reparations to the Allies. These payments weren't paid in currency, but in German industrial assets, as well as forced labour to the Allies.

Answer: After World War II both West Germany and East Germany were obliged to pay war reparations to the Allied governments, according to the Potsdam Conference. According to the Yalta Conference, no reparations to Allied countries would be paid in money. Instead much of the value transferred consisted of German industrial assets, as well as forced labour to the Allies.

Wiedergutmachung

Wiedergutmachung The German word Wiedergutmachung after World War II refers to the reparations that the German government agreed to pay in 1953 to the direct survivors of the Holocaust, and to those who were made to work as forced labour or who otherwise became victims of the Nazis. The sum would amount, through the years, to over 100 billion Deutsche Mark. Historian Tony Judt writes about Wiedergutmachung: The noun "Wiedergutmachung" is the general term for "restitution" or "reparation". The noun is made up of "wieder" ("again"), "gut" ("good" or "well"), and "machung", a verbal noun of "machen" ("to make"). The

Allied occupation of the Rhineland (1918–1919). Under the terms of the Treaty of Versailles (1919), which formally ended the war, Germany accepted responsibility for the damages caused in the war and was obliged to pay war reparations to the various Allies, principally France. The total sum of reparations demanded from Germany—around 226 billion gold marks (US $ billion in 2019)—was decided by an Inter-Allied Reparations Commission. In 1921, the amount was reduced to 132 billion (at that time, $31.4 billion (US $442 billion in 2019), or £6.6 billion (UK £284 billion in 2019)). Even with the reduction, the debt was

Question: Who is the most run in cricket history?

Answer: The player with the most runs in cricket List A history is Graham Gooch, with 22,211 runs. And the player with most runs in One Day International cricket is Sachin Tendulkar with 18,426 runs.

Answer: List A cricket is a classification of the limited-overs (one-day) form of the sport of cricket, with games lasting up to eight hours. Graham Alan Gooch, a former English first-class cricketer, was one of the most successful international batsmen of his generation, and through a career spanning from 1973 until 2000, he became the most prolific run scorer of all time, with 67,057 runs across first-class and limited-overs games. His List A cricket tally of 22,211 runs is also a record. Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar, an Indian former international cricketer who served as captain of the Indian national team, is the highest run scorer of all time in international cricket and the only player to have scored one hundred international centuries, the first batsman to score a double century in a One Day International (ODI), the holder of the record for the most runs in both Test and ODI cricket, and the only player to complete more than 30,000 runs in international cricket.

reached 1,000 runs before the end of May in 1938, Bill Edrich, mainly thanks to a sporting declaration by Australia at 5.09pm on the third and final day of the match against Middlesex at Lord's on 28–30 May, when Edrich needed another 10 runs. The feat has become rare since the Second World War, with only Glenn Turner and Graeme Hick reaching 1,000 runs before the end of May since 1938. In part, this is due to the reduced schedule of first-class cricket since the introduction of domestic one-day cricket competitions in the 1970s, and a reduction in the number

of first-class matches played by English county teams and touring international teams. The start of the English cricket season has crept earlier in April in recent years, and Nick Compton came close to achieving 1,000 runs before the end of May 2012, needing 59 runs on 31 May against Worcestershire. Rain intervened with Compton having only scored nine, but he scored a century after resuming his innings the following day to pass 1,000 runs on 1 June. Other near misses include John Langridge who reached 1,000 runs on 1 June 1949, and Brian Lara, who reached 1,000 runs on 2

June 1994 from just seven innings. 1,000 first-class runs before the end of May A batsman has scored 1,000 first-class runs before the end of May in an English cricket season on only eight occasions. In five of these occasions, the batsman reached 1,000 runs with innings played in April and May, but three scored 1,000 runs in the month of May alone. These were: W.G. Grace in 1895, Wally Hammond in 1927, and most recently Charlie Hallows in 1928. Donald Bradman is the only person to have scored 1,000 runs before the end of May twice, in 1930 and

ESPNcricinfo has the stricter restriction, requiring 1,000 deliveries: by this measure, Joel Garner is the record-holder, having claimed his wickets at an average of 18.84. By CricketArchive's more relaxed requirement of 400 deliveries, John Snow leads the way, with an average of 16.57.

Question: Who has scored the highest number of runs in test cricket?

Answer: In Test Cricket multiple players have set a record high number of runs. The player with the highest number of runs in a career is Sachin Tendulkar. Graham Gooch holds the record for the highest number of runs in a single match, Donald Bradman hold the record for highest number for runs in a series, Mohammad Yousuf has scored the highest number of runs in test cricket in a calendar year and Adam Voges has scored the highest number of runs in test cricket between successive dismissals. Also the players Brian Lara, George Bailey, and Keshav Maharaj have scored the highest number of runs in test cricket in an over.

Answer: Test cricket is played between international cricket teams who are Full Members of the International Cricket Council (ICC). Sachin Tendulkar, an Indian former international cricketer who served as captain of the Indian national team, has scored the highest number of runs in a career, and Graham Gooch, a former English first-class cricketer who captained Essex and England, has scored the highest number of runs in a single match. Australian Donald Bradman, widely considered the greatest batsman of all time, has scored the highest number of runs in a series, and Mohammad Yousuf has scored the highest number of runs in a calendar year. Adam Voges, an Australian cricket coach and former cricketer, has scored the highest number of runs between successive dismissals, and Brian Lara, George Bailey, and Keshav Maharaj have scored the highest number of runs in an over.

Batting average (cricket)

are usually subject to a minimum qualification of 20 innings played or completed, in order to exclude batsmen who have not played enough games for their skill to be reliably assessed. Under this qualification, the highest Test batting average belongs to Australia's Sir Donald Bradman, with 99.94. Given that a career batting average over 50 is exceptional, and that only five other players have averages over 60, this is an outstanding statistic. The fact that Bradman's average is so far above that of "any" other cricketer has led several statisticians to argue that, statistically at least, he was the greatest

Brian Lara

Brian Lara Brian Charles Lara, (born 2 May 1969) is a Trinidadian former international cricketer, widely acknowledged as one of the greatest batsmen of all time. He topped the Test batting rankings on several occasions and holds several cricketing records, including the record for the highest individual score in first-class cricket, with 501 not out for Warwickshire against Durham at Edgbaston in 1994, which is the only quintuple hundred in first-class cricket history.

Question: Who used a question and answer method of arriving at important truths?

Answer: The Socratic method, that uses questions and answers to arrive at important truths, was named after and developed by Greek philosopher Socrates. This method was famously used by Socrates' student, Plato.

Answer: Socrates was the first to attempt the question and answer method of arriving at important truths by engaging in discussions with his fellow Athenians. Plato later put Socrates' methodology into writing and formalized it.

Socratic method

Socratic method The Socratic method, also known as maieutics, method of elenchus, elenctic method, or Socratic debate, is a form of cooperative argumentative dialogue between individuals, based on asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking and to draw out ideas and underlying presuppositions. It is a dialectical method, involving a discussion in which the defense of one point of view is questioned; one participant may lead another to contradict themselves in some way, thus weakening the defender's point. This method is named after the Classical Greek philosopher Socrates and is introduced by him in Plato's Theaetetus as midwifery (maieutics)

Socrates believed that "the disciplined practice of thoughtful questioning enables the scholar/student to examine ideas and be able to determine the validity of those ideas" .

Plato famously formalized the Socratic elenctic style in prose—presenting Socrates as the curious questioner of some prominent Athenian interlocutor—in some of his early dialogues, such as "Euthyphro" and "Ion", and the method is most commonly found within the so-called "Socratic dialogues", which generally portray Socrates engaging in the method and questioning his fellow citizens about moral and epistemological issues. But in his later dialogues, such as Theaetetus or Sophist, Plato had a different method to philosophical discussions, namely

Apophantic Apophantic (, "declaratory", from ἀποφαίνειν "apophainein", "to show, to make known") is a term Aristotle coined to mean a specific type of declaratory statement that can determine the truth or falsity of a logical proposition or phenomenon. It was adopted by Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger as part of phenomenology. Marcuse defines it as "the logic of judgment".

It was adopted by Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger as part of phenomenology. Marcuse defines it as "the logic of judgment". In Aristotle's usage, the Greek term ἀποφαντικὸς λόγος (apophantic speech) describes a statement that, by examining a proposition in itself, can determine what is

Output: Socrates used a question and answer method of arriving at important truths. This method, known as the Socratic method, is a form of cooperative argumentative dialogue between individuals, based on asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking and to draw out ideas and underlying presuppositions. It is a dialectical method, involving a discussion in which the defense of one point of view is questioned; one participant may lead another to contradict themselves in some way, thus weakening the defender's point. This method is named after the Classical Greek philosopher Socrates and is introduced by him in Plato's Theaetetus as midwifery (maieutics) [1][2].


Question: What is it called when you mix up the letters of a word?

Answer: In regard to phonetics, when a word or phrase is formed by mixing up or rearranging the letters of a word, it is called an Anagram. But when someone has a disorder where they accidentally get letters or sounds mixed up or reversed, it is call Dyslexia.

Answer: Mixing up the letters of a word can happen for various reasons. An "anagrammatist" creates anagrams, a word or phrase formed by rearranging the letters of a different word or phrase, to produce anagrams that reflect or comment on their subject. On the other hand, some people may have dyslexia, a disorder characterized by problems with the visual notation of speech. People with dyslexia may reverse the order of two letters especially when the final, incorrect, word looks similar to the intended word.

Portmanteau

Portmanteau A portmanteau (, ) or portmanteau word is a linguistic blend of words, in which parts of multiple words or their phones (sounds) are combined into a new word, as in "smog", coined by blending "smoke" and "fog", or "motel", from "motor" and "hotel". In linguistics, a portmanteau is defined as a single morph that represents two or more morphemes. The definition overlaps with the grammatical term "contraction", but contractions are formed from words that would otherwise appear together in sequence, such as "do" and "not" to make "don't", whereas a portmanteau word is formed by combining two or

Crasis

Crasis Crasis (; from the Greek , "mixing", "blending") is a type of contraction in which two vowels or diphthongs merge into one new vowel or diphthong, making one word out of two. Crasis occurs in Portuguese and Arabic as well as in Ancient Greek, for which it was first described. In some cases, like in the French examples below, crasis involves the grammaticalization of two individual lexical items into one, but in other cases, like in the Greek examples, crasis is the orthographic representation of the encliticization and vowel reduction of one grammatical form with another. The difference between

Blend word In linguistics, a blend word or a blend is a word formed from parts of two or more other words. These parts are sometimes, but not always, morphemes. Blends abridge then combine lexemes to form a new word. Defining a true blend is complicated by the difficulty of determining which parts of the new word are "recoverable" (have roots which can be distinguished). Blends can be divided into three groups: Most blends are formed by one of the following methods: A

In January 2007, the assembly elected Ghanaian President John Kufuor over Sudan's President Omar al-Bashir due to the ongoing Conflict in Darfur. The government of Chad threatened to withdraw its membership if Sudan assumed the chair. Some had suggested Tanzania as a compromise candidate from the East African region. By consensus, Ghana was elected instead as it was celebrating its 50th independence anniversary that year.

Chairperson of the African Union The Chairperson of the African Union is the ceremonial head of the African Union elected by the Assembly of Heads of State and Government for a one-year term. It rotates among the continent's five regions. A candidate must be supported by at least two-thirds of the member states or by consensus. The chairperson is expected to complete the term without interruption; hence eligible countries with impending elections may be ineligible.

Question: Who hit the longest recorded homerun in mlb history?

Answer: The teams that have hit recorded breaking home-run in MLB history are New York Highlanders, Baltimore Orioles and the New York Yankees. The player that has hit the longest recorded homerun in MLB history is Babe Ruth.

Answer: "The Bambino" George Herman "Babe" Ruth Jr. of the New York Yankees has hit the longest recorded homeruns in MLB history. He began his career as a star left-handed pitcher for the Boston Redsox, but achieved his greatest fame as slugging outfielder for the New York Yankees. In 1936, Ruth was elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame as one of its "first five" inaugural members.

Answer: The book An Essay on the Principle of Population was first published anonymously in 1798, but the author was soon identified as Thomas Robert Malthus.

Answer: The book An Essay on the Principle of Population was first published anonymously in 1798, but the author was soon identified as Thomas Robert Malthus. The book warned of future difficulties, on an interpretation of the population increasing at a geometrical ratio while an increase in food production was limited to an arithmetic ratio, which would leave a difference resulting in the want of food and famine, unless birth rates decreased.

Between 1798 and 1826 Malthus published six editions of his famous treatise, updating each edition to incorporate new material, to address criticism, and to convey changes in his own perspectives on the subject. He wrote the original text in reaction to the optimism of his father and his father's associates (notably Rousseau) regarding the future improvement of society.

Question: Who developed the first alternating current electric system?

Answer: The earliest recorded practical application of alternating current is by Guillaume Duchenne,. The first alternator to produce alternating current was a dynamo electric generator based on Michael Faraday's principles constructed by the French instrument maker Hippolyte Pixii in 1832. The first alternating current electric arc lighting system was  developed by Pavel Yablochko. And the first induction motor that was an alternating current power system was made by Nikola Tesla.

Answer: The first alternator to produce alternating current was a dynamo electric generator based on Michael Faraday's principles constructed by the French instrument maker Hippolyte Pixii in 1832. The earliest recorded practical application of alternating current is by Guillaume Duchenne, inventor and developer of electrotherapy. In 1876, Russian engineer Pavel Yablochkov invented a lighting system where sets of induction coils were installed along a high voltage AC line that instead of changing voltage, the primary windings transferred power to the secondary windings which were connected to one or several 'electric candles' (arc lamps) of his own design. In 1888 alternating current systems gained further viability with introduction of a functional AC motor, something these systems had lacked up till then and the design, an induction motor, was independently invented by Galileo Ferraris and Nikola Tesla (with Tesla's design being licensed by Westinghouse in the US).

megahertz. These frequencies are similar to the electromagnetic wave frequencies often used to transmit the same types of information over the air. The first alternator to produce alternating current was a dynamo electric generator based on Michael Faraday's principles constructed by the French instrument maker Hippolyte Pixii in 1832. Pixii later added a commutator to his device to produce the (then) more commonly used direct current. The earliest recorded practical application of alternating current is by Guillaume Duchenne, inventor and developer of electrotherapy. In 1855, he announced that AC was superior to direct current for electrotherapeutic triggering of muscle contractions.

1878, the Ganz factory, Budapest, Hungary, began manufacturing equipment for electric lighting and, by 1883, had installed over fifty systems in Austria-Hungary. Their AC systems used arc and incandescent lamps, generators, and other equipment. Alternating current systems can use transformers to change voltage from low to high level and back, allowing generation and consumption at low voltages but transmission, possibly over great distances, at high voltage, with savings in the cost of conductors and energy losses. A bipolar open-core power transformer developed by Lucien Gaulard and John Dixon Gibbs was demonstrated in London in 1881, and attracted the interest of

In the US William Stanley, Jr. designed one of the first practical devices to transfer AC power efficiently between isolated circuits. Using pairs of coils wound on a common iron core, his design, called an induction coil, was an early (1885) transformer. Stanley also worked on engineering and adapting European designs such as the Gaulard and Gibbs transformer for US entrepreneur George Westinghouse who started building AC systems in 1886. The spread of Westinghouse and other AC systems triggered a push back in late 1887 by

Alternating current technology had first developed in Europe due to the work of Guillaume Duchenne (1850s), the Hungarian Ganz Works company (1870s), and in the 1880s: Sebastian Ziani de Ferranti, Lucien Gaulard, and Galileo Ferraris. In 1876, Russian engineer Pavel Yablochkov invented a lighting system where sets of induction coils were installed along a high voltage AC line. Instead of changing voltage, the primary windings transferred power to the secondary windings which were connected to one or several 'electric candles' (arc lamps) of his own design, used to keep the failure of one lamp from disabling the entire circuit.

Question: What kind of fish is in filet o fish?

Answer: In November 2007, McDonald's lowered the use of New Zealand hoki in their  Filet-O-Fish sandwich and increased the use of Alaskan pollock, the fish that is used the US Filet-O-Fish.

Answer: The Filet-O-Fish is a fish sandwich sold by the international fast food restaurant chain McDonald's. Alaska pollock is commonly used in the fast food industry in products such as McDonald's Filet-O-Fish sandwich and Fish McBites. The US Filet-O-Fish contains a battered, fried fish fillet made from Alaska pollock. In the Republic of Ireland either Hoki or Alaska Pollock may be served.
