They are the equivalent of flat-earth theorists,” they would insist. “Forget about them.” In truth, I thought the same thing. In fact, when I first heard of Holocaust deniers, I laughed and dismissed them as not worthy of serious analysis. Then I looked more closely and I changed my mind.

At that time, there were many arms factories. That is one of the reasons. In addition, Nagasaki was suitable for seeing the damage by the atomic bomb because Nagasaki had had little damage by air raid before. 2 ・What’s the difference between atomic bombs and general bombs? →Atomic bombs have three characteristics- strong blast, heat rays, and radioactivity. the percentage of each energy 15% 50% 35% blast heat rays radioactivity Belonging to Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum →「A Mushroom Cloud」 Taken by the U.S. military 3 ・strong blast The strong wind blew at a speed of 440m, which broke wind panes, and tiles. ・heat rays People who were 4km away from the bombing-point even got burned on their body in about 4000℃ heat. (Iron melts at 1500℃) ・radioactivity The amount of the emission of radioactivity was 8700 times as large as the dose limit.

  • Survivors Benefits
    Survivors Benefits SocialSecurity.gov What’s inside The importance of Social Security survivors insurance 1 If you’re working...what you need to know about survivors benefits 1 When a relative dies...what you need to know about survivors benefits 5 Contacting Social Security 9 The importance of Social Security survivors insurance The loss of the family wage earner can be devastating both emotionally and financially. Social Security helps by providing income for the families of workers who die. This booklet gives you an overview of Social Security survivors benefits paid to the spouses and children of workers who die. This booklet isn’t intended to answer all the questions you may have. For more information about Social Security’s survivors benefits, visit our website, or call our toll-free numbers. If you’re working...what you need to know about survivors benefits “Life insurance” from Social Security Many people think of Social Security only as a retirement program. But some of the Social Security taxes you pay go toward survivors benefits for workers and their families. In fact, the value of the survivors benefits you have under Social Security is probably more than the value of your individual life insurance. When you die, certain members of your family may be eligible for survivors benefits. These include widows, widowers (and divorced widows and widowers), children, and dependent parents. How do I earn survivors benefits? As you work and pay Social Security taxes, you earn credits toward your Social Security benefits. The number of years you need to work for your family to be eligible for Social Security survivors benefits depends on your age when you die.

    Intercom – Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos Interdisciplinares da Comunicação XXXI Congresso Brasileiro de Ciências da Comunicação – Natal, RN – 2 a 6 de setembro de 2008 Reality TV e reality show: ficção e realidade na telinha 1 Debora Cristine Rocha 2 PEPG em Comunicação e Semiótica da Puc-SP Resumo A reality TV , uma variedade da programação factual popular, influencia os mais diversos formatos televisivos. Embora o formato mais associado à essa forma de televisão seja o reality show , ela não se restringe a ele e transporta, para a programação em geral, técnicas e recursos que visam tornar o texto midiático mais e mais real . Entra em jogo, o processo de referencialização para tornar o texto vivido, no cotidiano por pessoas anônimas, um elemento de máxima realidade no que é veiculado. Porém, mesmo no interior da reality TV e do reality show , o formato por ela criado, subsiste uma estrutura narrativa, ficcional. Palavras-chave: reality TV; reality show; gameshow; processo de referencialização. A televisão vai adentrar a sua casa, vai revirar a sua vida em busca de algo para exibir na telinha. Logo mais, à noite, no horário nobre, a sua história de vida, a sua imagem será transmitida a milhões de pessoas e todo mundo vai saber por um instante, ainda que pequeno, ainda que passageiro, quem é você. Todo mundo vai saber por alguns minutos que você existe, a sua família existe, a sua casa consta no mapa. Todo mundo vai saber que você é real e mais, que a TV é para valer, ela transmite o real ao mostrar gente como a gente , o nosso cotidiano.
