<span>It never ceases to amaze me when a teacher asks a question like this. Why are any coastal areas important? Why are any Sounds important? The real question should be, What are the physical properties of coastal areas that make them important enough for educated humans to talk about? Does Washington's coastal area have properties that differentiate it from other coastal areas on the planet? I would argue that the question is searching for the wrong answer. Your teacher must have listed some properties of the area she is asking you to regurgitate, or she is trying to prompt some answer from your textbook, which may or may not be true. So, I return to the real question- what is it about coastal areas, in general, that make them important to the life on the planet, or to the well being of the human population? Is there anything that differentiates the Washington coastal area and the Puget Sound from other coastal areas around the globe?</span>
The early civilizations lacked adequate means to obtain knowledge about the human brain. Their assumptions about the inner workings of the mind, therefore, were not accurate. Early views on the function of the brain<span> regarded it to be a form of "cranial stuffing" of sorts. In ancient Egypt, from the late </span>Middle Kingdom<span> onwards, in preparation for mummification, the brain was regularly removed, for it was the </span>heart<span> that was assumed to be the seat of intelligence. According to </span>Herodotus<span>, during the first step of mummification: "The most perfect practice is to extract as much of the brain as possible with an iron hook, and what the hook cannot reach is mixed with drugs." Over the next five thousand years, this view came to be reversed; the brain is now known to be the seat of intelligence, although colloquial variations of the former remain as in "memorizing something by heart".</span>
The base idea behind Roosevelt's New Deal is that the Federal Government would stimulate the economy by providing jobs, private market incentives, and other public incentives to get people working again and to open up the access to credit.
Jews were systematically oppressed long before the Holocaust. At first, they were isolated from the other Germans and dehumanized (forced to wear the Star of David to signify they were Jewish); from there they were segregated. They were then encouraged to leave Germany and other countries under German rule as they started to expand (their home land). Then, they were forced into ghettos. Finally, they were transported into death camps and concentration camps.
