Which Robber Baron would be considered a Venture Capitalist by today’s standards?
Answer:
Bill Gates
Co-founder of Microsoft Corp.
Founded: 1975
"Ultimately, the PC will be a window to everything people are interested in-and everything we need to know."-Bill Gates
Some see him as an innovative visionary who sparked a computer revolution. Others see him as a modern-day robber baron whose predatory practices have stifled competition in the software industry. Regardless of what his supporters and detractors may think, few can argue that Bill Gates is one of, if not the most successful entrepreneur of the 20th century. In just 25 years, he built a two-man operation into a multibillion-dollar colossus and made himself the richest man in the world. Yet he accomplished this feat not by inventing new technology, but by taking existing technology, adapting it to a specific market, and then dominating that market through innovative promotion and cunning business savvy.
Gates' first exposure to computers came while he was attending the prestigious Lakeside School in Seattle. A local company offered the use of its computer to the school through a Teletype link, and young Gates became entranced by the possibilities of the primitive machine. Along with fellow student Paul Allen, he began ditching class to work in the school's computer room. Their work would soon pay off. When Gates was 16, he and Allen went into business together. The two teens netted $20,000 with Traf-O-Data, a program they developed to measure traffic flow in the Seattle area.
Despite his love and obvious aptitude for computer programming, and perhaps because of his father's influence, Gates entered Harvard in the fall of 1973. By his own admission, he was there in body but not in spirit, preferring to spend his time playing poker and video games rather than attending class.

How is ice melting different from burning something?
Answer:
Melting is a physical process that involves the phase transition of a substance from its solid to its liquid state. Burning, on the other hand, is a chemical process that involves a substance being broken down and changed into different substances. ... You've probably noticed that wood exposed to heat doesn't melt.
Answer:
Explanation:
Ice in its original form is still water. Nothing has changed when it is melted except its physical form.
When something is burned, there is a chemical reaction and usually the reaction cannot be reversed. When you burn wood so that only ashes are left, you cannot wave a wand or do some other procedure to turn the ash back to wood.
If you want to change water back to ice, all you need do is store the water in a place that's below its melting point and before long you will have ice.
What do you predict might be the effect or outcome of the growth of cash crops for Africa?
Answer:
The growth of cash crops in Africa are likely to increase economic growth and development in the areas where they are cultivated, because these crops respond to international demand, and do tend to have a higher price than other crops. However, it is to be seen if the economic flow of money from the cash crops reach the majority of the population, or only flow to the hands of a few people.
Enviromentally-wise, cash crops could be damaging to the soils, leading to soil depletion. They could also cause more deforestation because there is an economic incentive to clear out forest and replace it with cash crop plantations.

Answer:
Romanticism was a response to 'Neo-classical literature and scientific rationalist thought.'

It rejected Neo-classicism's rationalist thought and emphasis on objectivity and logic and highlighted the significance of creativity, nature, feelings, and spontaneity.

why was the 1948 presidential election considered on of the biggest political upsets in US history?
Answer:
⌦ ❝ The United States presidential election of 1948 is considered by most historians as the greatest election upset in American history. Virtually every prediction (with or without public opinion polls) indicated that incumbent President Harry S. Truman would be defeated by Republican Thomas E. Dewey. Truman won, overcoming a three-way split in his own party. Truman's surprise victory was the fifth consecutive win for the Democratic Party in a presidential election. As a result of the 1948 congressional election, the Democrats would regain control of both houses of Congress. Thus, Truman's election confirmed the Democratic Party's status as the nation's majority party, a status they would retain until 1952. ❞
