Saint-Kitts-et-Nevis ou Saint-Christopher-et-Nevis.
Découvertes en 1493 par Christophe Colomb, ces îles furent assez superficiellement colonisées par les Espagnols, en raison de la farouche opposition des Indiens caraïbes à la tutelle ibérique. Elles furent classées dans la catégorie des « îles inutiles » de la nomenclature administrative espagnole en raison de leur petitesse, de l'hostilité de leurs habitants cannibales et de l'insignifiance de leurs richesses en métal précieux. Elles servirent d'entrepôts permanents à tous les aventuriers à par...

Debating Sports Records
Mark Purdy, sports columnist for the San Jose Mercury News in California, compiles a list of sports records that he believes will never be broken and a separate list of
records that he thinks are soon to be eclipsed.
UCLA’s dominance of NCAA men’s college basketball in the late 1960s and early 1970s will never be matched. With John Wooden as coach, the Bruins went from1967 to 1973 without losing a tournament game. Wooden built a dynasty around a system that stressed team play and solid defense, anchored by standout centersLew Alcindor (who later changed his name to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) and Bill Walton. The Bruins’ ten straight appearances in the Final Four (1967-1976) will alsobe tough to top, given that tod...

'You'd better slip on your pants and run,' he said. He went out. I got up and moved about, listening to him through the wall. He entered the sitting-room, toward the door. 'Aren't you ready yet?' 'Not yet. Run along. I'll make it.' He went out. The door closed. His feet went down the corridor. Then I could hear the watch again. I quit moving around and went to the window and drew thecurtains aside and watched them running for chapel, the same ones fighting the same heaving coat-s...

None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them. If...

The Story of An Hour by Kate Chopin

Women were not allowed to think for themselves or have an opinion of their own, they had to have the same opinions as their husbands or fathers, at the time. It took her husband dying for her to feel free, it was the only way, back then, for a woman to be free, as women were always financially dependent on men, a woman goes from being dependant on her father to being dependant on her husband, sh...

Then the bird said, “Nevermo...

Vancouver then stunned the Rangers—andthe sellout crowd—by netting three quick goals to put the game far out of reach. Game six in Vancouver proved even more of a challenge for the Rangers.
