A Tale of Two Baker Streets: The history of Hong Kong’s colonial street names
By Justin Cheuk Mar 9, 2016 | 4:59pm Hong Kong time
Hong Kong’s street names are one of more visible legacies from the colonial era. Whether they are derived from public figures or geographical landmarks, the kaleidoscopic collection has offered us a unique insight into the east-meets-west blending of cultures in the city.
Much of the names have remained unchanged in the post-handover world, allowing us to preserve the city’s heritage in its entirely. This is true even for the most undesirable namesakes. Take Elgin Street (伊利近街) in Central for example: it honours James Bruce, the eighth Earl of Elgin, who is responsible for the order to loot and destroy the Summer Palace in Beijing.

What can the date of the truman doctrine tell us about the context in which the document was written?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
What the date of the Truman doctrine tells us about the context in which the document was written was that the United States was living during a period of modern history known as the Cold War years.
The United States 'Truman Doctrine' was the foreign policy of the United States established by US President Harry Truman in 1947. After its participation in World War II, President Truman decided to be more actively involved in world affairs, in the opposite direction of his predecessors that preferred to maintain the foreign policy of neutrality or isolationism.
President Truman said that the United States would offer economic, political, and military assistant to all democratic nations in need.
This new policy is similar to the U.S. 'Domino Theory' and the U.S. idea of 'Containment' in that this new international approach was to make a solid presence in the world in the time of the so-called Cold War. A time in modern history when the Soviet Union tried to spread Communism all over the world, while the United States tried to stop it by establishing the policy of containment.
During the Cold War, the USSR and the US competed in the arms race, the space race, and the spread/containment in places such as North Korea/South Korea, North Vietnam/South Vietnam, Eastern Eure, and Cuba.

Asia is predicted to rise 5,100 by 2050 before slowly falling to 4,700 by 2100. Africa is predicted to steadily rise, from 1,000 in 2010 to 4,200 in 2100.

high immigration rates
Answer:
higher birth rates
Explanation:
edge
The correct option is higher birth rates.
What is population growth?Population augmentation is the increase in the number of humans on Earth. For most of the human record, our population size was rather stable. But with innovation and automation, energy, food, water, and medical care became more functional and reliable.The major conclusions were that social factors—such as education, child marriage, contraception use, and religion—correlate most deeply to population growth. Familiarized couples tend to have fewer children. More religious people tend to have more children.Population growth causes a disproportionate negative influence on the environment. Problems of inhabitants' size and growth, resource utilization and depletion, and environmental pollution must be considered jointly and on a global basis.

Easier to reach difficult and isolated placesGoods are not carried by peopleLess physical exhaustion since no need to walk or hike dangerous terrain.Explanation:
Water routes enabled people to reach difficult areas that were not accessible by road but had access to water. This ensured that trade was expanded and that more areas saw prosperity.

Explain what he is watching based on what it says in the poem star spangled banner
Here’s the poem..
The Star-Spangled Banner
O say can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hail’d at the twilight’s last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight
O’er the ramparts we watch’d were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there,
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep
Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream,
’Tis the star-spangled banner - O long may it wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore,
That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion
A home and a Country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wash’d out their foul footstep’s pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
O thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their lov’d home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with vict’ry and peace may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the power that hath made and preserv’d us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto - “In God is our trust,”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Answer:
He is watching a battle take place. The author of the Star-Spangled Banner had been captured by the British in the War of 1812. Evidence to support this is that, he states, "And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there" which demonstrates bombs going off and evidence of the American flag still standing so the battle is still happening.

Who was J. Edgar Hoover to these two groups of people: white people and civil rights activists / Black people?
Answer:
J Edgar Hoover was head of the FBI from its inception in 1935 until his death in 1972.
Explanation:
Hoover, as far as these groups would have been seen as an adversary. He had conservative right wing views and used the FBI to amass files on anyone he considered a threat to his right wing vision of the USA. These included leading civil rights activists such as Martin Luther King Jnr and more radical black activists such as Angela Davis and Malcolm X.
Such hostility was aimed at anyone considered on the left, for example those black listed in Hollywood during McArthyism.
Hoover also consistently denied that there was an organized crime family, the Mafia, in the USA. Some have speculated that this is because the Mafia blackmailed him.
