Where did baseball start and how is it different today?

Baseball began in the late 1700s but really took off during the Civil War. One way that it is different today is that some of the rules are different. For example it used to take 8 balls before a player could walk.


Why do you have a local government?

We need local government to provide us services whether we live in the Countryside, city, or town. We have public transportation to help people get around if they don't have drivers license or just want to be environmentally friendly. The senior facilities help old people live somewhere and take care of them in their old age. Waste disposal goes to peoples houses' and helps them bring every bodies garbage to the dump. At you can see, those are some of the reasons in need for local government.Local Government collects taxes to provide services. Most of the money is collected from taxes raised by property owners like houses, businesses, and land.New bylaws or changes to bylaws usually get introduced by a councillor at a council meeting. The councillor makes a motion when the bylaw is passed.A motion to make or change a bylaw has to be checked three times before it is voted on by members of the representatives. It gives people who deny the motion three chances to speak out or argue not for it. Supporters on the motion can answer these evaluations. After, the motion is put into vote. If the more more like it, it will be passed and become a bylaw.Local government lets people have voice in what they believe in. One thing they think is:We think that people who live in a community should best understand the effects that happen to our daily lives. Representatives that people elect to be in local government are in a great position to make decisions that are in interests of the community.

What did sport baseball evolve from?

Surprisingly little is known about the origin of baseball. The question has been the subject of considerable debate and controversy for more than 100 years. Baseball (and softball), as well as the other modern bat, ball and running games, cricket and rounders, developed from earlier folk games, many of which were similar to each other, but there were certainly local, regional and national variations, both in how they were played and what they were called, such as stoolball, poison ball, and goal ball. Few details of how the modern games developed from earlier folk games are known. Some think that various folk games resulted in a game called town ball from which baseball was eventually born. A number of early folk games in England had characteristics that can be seen in modern baseball (as well as in cricket and rounders). Many of these early games involved a ball that was thrown at a target while an opposing player defended the target by attempting to hit the ball away. If the batter successfully hit the ball, he could attempt to score points by running between bases while fielders would attempt to catch or retrieve the ball and put the runner out in some way. Since they were folk games, the early games had no 'official' rules, and they tended to change over time. To the extent that there were rules, they were generally simple and were not written down. There were many local variations, and varied names. Many of the early games were not well documented, first, because they were generally peasant games (and perhaps children's games, as well); and second, because they were often discouraged, and sometimes even prohibited, either by the church or by the state, or both. Aside from obvious differences in terminology, the games differed in the equipment used (ball, bat, club, target, etc., which were usually just whatever was available), the way in which the ball is thrown, the method of scoring, the method of making outs, the layout of the field and the number of players involved. An old English game called "base," described by George Ewing at Valley Forge, was apparently not much like baseball. There was no bat and no ball involved! The game was more like a fancy game of "tag", although it did share the concept of places of safety (ie, bases) with modern baseball. In an 1801 book entitled The Sports and Pastimes of the People of England, Joseph Strutt claimed to have shown that baseball-like games can be traced back to the 14th century, and that baseball is a descendant of a British game called stoolball. The earliest known reference to stoolball is in a 1330 poem by William Pagula, who recommended to priests that the game be forbidden within churchyards. In stoolball, a batter stood before a target, perhaps an upturned stool, while another player pitched a ball to the batter. If the batter hit the ball (with a bat or his/her hand) and it was caught by a fielder, the batter was out. If the pitched ball hit a stool leg, the batter was out. It was more often played by young men and women as a sort of spin the bottle. According to many sources, in 1700, a Puritan leader of southern England, Thomas Wilson, expressed his disapproval of "Morris-dancing, cudgel-playing, baseball and cricket" occurring on Sundays. However, David Block, in Baseball Before We Knew It, reports that the original source has "stoolball" for "baseball". Block also reports that the reference appears to date to 1672, rather than 1700. A 1744 publication in England by John Newbery called A Little Pretty Pocket-Book includes a woodcut of stoolball and a rhyme entitled "Base-ball." The book was later published in Colonial America in 1762. In 1748, the family of Frederick, Prince of Wales partook in the playing of a baseball-like game. A 1791 bylaw in Pittsfield, Massachusetts bans the playing of baseball within 80 yards of the town meeting house. Les Jeux des Jeunes Gar


Where was the Jewish ghetto located?

Answer 1In Medieval Europe and some parts of the Arab World, the Jews were required to live only within certain areas of cities. In Venice, in the district of Canareggio, there was a neighborhood called "Ghetto" which happened to be the one assigned to the Venetian Jews. Eventually, the name of this particular area took on the meaning of any such area in any city. Jews remained in the ghettos well into the modern period and were first released from the ghettos by Napoleon who decreed that Jews were French citizens and need not live in separate areas. However, many Jews remained in the ghettos as they had a certain Jewish character to them by that point.During the Holocaust, the term ghetto takes on a slightly different meaning. They were basically (to the Nazis) community homes to store as many possible Jews in for each city. Although there were more than just one ghetto in each city, more Jews than the ghettos could hold were always put into these ghettos to await "Relocation." This "Relocation" was actually deportation to a death camp. But, ghettos were just somewhat large Jew and other inferior containment buildings.Answer 2A ghetto was an area in a town or city where Jews lived, in most cases because they were not allowed to live elsewhere. As they tended to be overcrowded and, in many areas, the Jewish inhabitants were restricted in the work they were permitted to do (leaving many very poor) ghettos tended to be squalid, disease-ridden places with very poor living conditions. They existed in various European cities between the Middle Ages right up until WW2, which saw the famous uprising in the Warsaw Ghetto - when the Nazis tried to clear the ghetto, the Jews inside put up an armed resistance and were successful in holding off the Nazis for a number of weeks. However, the Nazis finally took the ghetto due to their superior numbers and firepower and set about burning or bombing the buildings, rounding up anyone they could and shooting anyone who tried to flee. Most of those captured were then sent to Treblinka where the majority died.Comment on Answer 2The above is confusing and inaccurate because it conflates medieval, early modern and Nazi ghettos. By 1870 ghettos (as places where Jews had to live bylaw) had been abolished in Europe, but were reintroduced by the Nazis in 1939-41, then liquidated.
