During this period the USA and its friends in europe had lietraly 5 miles from the soviet union or Russian territory. at the time Russian did not have an short flight response in place to attack the usa. this ment we could lunch a nuclear strike at the Russians and Russia culd not responed against the usa for sevaral hours and the usa could likely mount a good defense and prevent an attack. so putting missiles in cuba seemed like it would "balance" the detrent.

What changes to Chinese administration and bureaucracy did Song rulers introduce?
Dvinal [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The changes to Chinese administration and bureaucracy that Song rulers introduced were the following.

The Song dynasty produced changes in ancient China. Its leaders were committed to work and develop notorious advancements such as the use of the compass for exploration, the use of gunpowder to wage war and other uses such as construction, and invested so much in the formation of its standing navy, culture, arts, education, literature, and philosophical studies. Confucianism had a second "fresh air" with the studies of philosophers such as Zhu Xi and Cheng Yi.

Bureaucracy was centralized under the Song dynasty and demanded its bureaucratic officials to work with virtue and high moral. Indeed, they had to pass difficult examinations and evaluations to be part of the Song bureaucratic system of government.

The Song dynasty started in 960 and ended in 1279.

In a short summary, describe the progression of Roderick usher’s mental and physical deterioration over the course of the story.
Vaselesa [24]

In the beginning of the story, we learn that Roderick was feeling physically and mentally ill and that is why he sent a letter to the narrator, his boyhood friend. Once the narrator arrives at the house, he sees that Roderick is paler than he used to be and that his senses are hightened; and also that his sister Madeline is ill of some mysterious sickness.

Over the course of days, the narrator tried to cheer Roderick writing lyrics to his songs, reading him stories, but nothing seems to work. Over the days following Madeline's death and burial, Roderick seems even more nervous and mentally unstable, until one night he knocks on the narrator's door, completely hysterical. The narrator tries to calm him by reading him another story, but when they hear some noises, Roderick finally loses his mind. He says that Madeline is the one knocking on the door, which is confirmed when the wind blows it open. Madeline attacks Roderick, who dies of fear while the narrator escapes from the House of Usher, which crumbles to the ground.

There are several possible causes for his illness, but I would focus on the mental aspect. Both Usher's seems to be two sides of the same coin: Madeline lack of physical strenght reflects Roderick inability to tell reality from fantasy. He is not afraid of a particular thing, he is afraid of fear itself, and he focalizes it on Madeline. Also, we know that Roderick has become a recluse, never leaving the house. His identity could be so intermingled wih the physical house and with his sister, that the idea of the dynasty dying is what brings the illness. The House, as the dynasty, is deteriorating so when they die, the House crumbles.
