How do I remove history image from youtube playlist?
Q. My cousin was viewing awful videos on youtube using MY account! I've cleared the viewing history, but everytime I look at my playlist bar, an image from the last video he viewed is still there (bloody bodies, war, rotting corpses, that kind of stuff). Why is the image still there after the history list has been removed? I've looked at other videos and this horrible pic still keeps popping up.

What good is it taking history classes in high school?
Q. How are history classes good to take? At my high school you need world history, government, ecconomics, and american history to be able to gratudate. What good is it to take american history and world history. Many other schools around here don't even offer world history here. What kinds of fields can you go into by taking history? There is lots of things you can do with English, math and science but what good does history do? What kinds of jobs can you get from taking lots of history classes in high school? I know what its for but what kinds of jobs can you get with it?

A. Journalism, Politics, stuff like that... History is a very academic subject, so applying to a university colleague, getting a job. Having a good grade in history will certainly show you've got brains. History gives you a better perceptive of the world, as you find out other stories and learn from them... I must admit I personally prefer the sciences, revise all the info then get the marks... And dropped history for Biology... Many say history is a very interesting subject, hence why lots of adults read history as thei hobby...

What is the difference between a History major and History Education major?
Q. I was wondering what would the differences in studies be, and the career field differences thereof. Obviously History Education would apply to what it is named for, but History alone seems vague and possibly has a broad career field. Is there really any difference and which would be the better route?
Asked by - Mon Jun 20 12:58:46 2011 - History - 3 Answers - Comments
A. Depends on what you are looking for. If your love is of history for its sake, then you will learn more about history as a history major than as a History Education major. History Education will require to combine a mix of education courses with history courses. You'll learn less history and will have to take education classes, which I can tell you as a teacher myself, are a waste of time and incredibly boring to sit through. If your goal is to teach history, then I'd double major in both. The Ed. major will prepare you to be a history teacher, and the history major will ensure that you know your material well. On it's own a history major is a general liberal arts major. No direct career correlation.

History of the Native Americans in North America during the bronze age through the midieval period?
Q. Do we know any of the history of the native americans in North America during the bronze age through the midieval period. If so what terms should I use to search with to learn more about it? 10 points best answer. Yeah I have heard about the piramids and the large house like structures but I can't remember where in North America it was.
Asked by jack - Thu Jan 10 03:43:10 2008 - History - 6 Answers - 1 Comments
A. There was no Bronze Age or Medieval period in north America. The natives went straight from a stone age culture to the modern period. Bronze age, Iron Age, Roman, Saxon and Viking, Medieval are all periods of European history and can not be applied to the Americas. The fact is that although the whole of North and South America retained neolithic culture until white contact, certain native cultures also evolved rudimentary metalworking techniques. This ranged from the very crude use of native copper in the Great Lakes and Central America regions to casting gold and other metals in central and South America. This is still part of a Stone Age technology, however.

A. You will need, at minimum, a Master's degree in history. If you want to teach anywhere but a community college, you will need a Ph.D. If you don't want to go for the Ph.D., you could probably get teaching certification along with your Master's and teach k-12. But if you plan on teaching at the college/university level, you don't need a teaching license. That's only for teaching k-12, and even then if you plan on only teaching in private schools you might not need the license.

A. see if your university has specialization options. rather than major in overall history, and minoring in something, it gives you the opportunity to do what you described. Unfortunately, with specializations, you can't double major, you can't minor, and you most likely won't be able to take other courses not needed for your degree.

Q. I really enjoy history and would love to have a more scholarly career. However, it bothers me that a job history doesn't really imply a shaping and changing of the future, while I would like to have a more meaningful effect in working towards positive change. What are your opinions on the relevance of history and how it can be meaningful? Are there are any careers you can think of that would combine history and activism? (I am also not so much interested in studying activism)

A. There are plenty of would-be activists in the historical profession. They're the people who go to historical conferences and get on their soapbox. Academics who shriek and cast aspersions on everyone who presents arguments which differ from their own. For all the talk of passion, engagement and social justice that exists in the academy, the fact is that most activists make terrible historians. Sure, objectivity is impossible. Progress a delusion. But good historians are open-minded give all arguments a fair hearing. And beyond that, if you feel so passionately about certain causes, you'd be miserable in academia. As the last respondent pointed out, activism is far better suited to politics or the law -- jobs where your goal goes beyond the… [cont.]

How is your Credit History is affected in the UK?
Q. Dear all, I would like to know which actions affect your credit history in the UK. I mean, if you forget to pay one bill of a telecommunications company and you proceed into payment in the next 15 days, is your credit history affected? Thank you! Thank you so much for your information. Actually, no one is threatening me, however I am new in the UK, planning to create the appropriate circumstances to have a mortgage; that's why I am asking. Thank you again!

A. Your credit report will only have defaults listed on it, a bill forgotten for 15 days followed by payment will not appear. You need to remember that the companys [Experian etc] that hold your credit record do so with good business ethics, and would not gain anything from adding defaults to your history when they are not valid, as it would invalidate thier credibility. If you got a bill from your telecoms company threatening that failure to pay might effect your credit status, they only do that to scare non payers into paying, it;s an automaticaly generated letter. If you have paid your bill now... There is no need for worry. It;s worth getting a credit report anyway, theyre's interesting and informative.Without bias or prejudice I fully… [cont.]

What history movie or show should I get my dad for christmas?
Q. He loves watching the history channel. I had planned on getting him something about the war in Vietnam, but when I asked him he said that he really likes things about the early west (like the Louisiana purchase) or early America in general. I've looked in the History Channel store and have no idea what to get. I also thought about going to Amazon but I wouldn't have any idea what to search for.
