Traveled to california, the physical geography of the area and evolving Technology Used to mine gold. Good morning everybody. The topic of our lecture is the history of the gold rush and i will talk mainly about california in the years following 1848. But gold played a very, very Important Role in American History. Think back to the conquistadors, one of the things they were fascinating about was the quest for gold. An unquenchable desire for Precious Metals, gold above all, but also silver. When the first settlers came to jamestown they were hoping to find the same supplies of gold found by the spaniards and bitter disappointment not to find gold in the whats now virginia and brought with them jewelers and gold smiths. Americas first gold rush took place in georgia in 1829 in north georgia. If youve been about 100 miles north, you would see the old lump kin county courthouse has been converted into a gold mining museum. Its about 100 miles up the road. What happened was, first gold wa
But also silver. When the first settlers came to jamestown they were hoping to find the same supplies of gold found by the spaniards and bitter disappointment not to find gold in the whats now virginia and brought with them jewelers and gold smiths. Americas first gold rush took place in georgia in 1829 in north georgia. If youve been about 100 miles north, you would see the old lump kin county courthouse has been converted into a gold mining museum. Its about 100 miles up the road. What happened was, first gold was discovered and people started pouring into the area in huge numbers because of the intoxicating possibility that gold would make them wealthy quickly. Until then this had been an area really beyond the line of settlement. But suddenly now the White Settlement catches up very quickly. Here is the governor, george gilmore, describing what it was like meeting the georgia miners in 1829. Many thousands of idle people flocked into georgia from every point of the compass whose pe

Intel is the story the margin story, the share loss or more. Looking forward to getting some more detail and clarity from the ceo of intel that will join us in just a few minutes. This is not all bad news there is a beat on the top and bottom lines really the focus is on manufacturing which is, you know, for generations literally it has been one of intells hallmarks and advantages now the manufacturing job not like i have seen ever in the period that i have been covering the company. Yeah, and john, i think it is a big question for the longer term what makes them so confident that it will be six months and i know we always play this game, but we always look at this, how much has intel shed. Perhaps, guys, what might matter most is that it has fallen blow nvidia they have been neck and neck going back and forth and that is probably the one that hurts. That is interesting i would say in a way less interesting than amd which is really head to head against intel right now in the argument a
We have seen a lot of ups and downs in the Latino Community. None more stark than the last 3. 5 years. Donald trump his administration have pursued an allout assault on latino communities, from the moment he came down that golden escalator saying he was going to take on the mexican rapists. It started the moment he announced his presidency. Feeding the flames of fears and racism against latinos. It is baked into every aspect of how he has governed. This week was an especially poignant reminder of the terrible consequences of allowing that kind of hate to grow unchecked. Butought we could defeat a, it only hides under the rocks. When a president breathes oxygen in, it comes roaring out. On monday, we marked the oneyear anniversary of the tragic mass shooting in el paso where a gunman explicitly sought to target latinos and 23 beautiful lives were stolen from us and their families. I know what it is like to lose a child. It is awful. The stakes of trumps irresponsible policies, of divisi
