The Protester

Some time ago, when significant news occasions were chronicled strictly by experts and printed on paper or transmitted through the air by the few for the masses, dissidents were prime producers of history. In those days, when resident multitudes took to the lanes without weapons to announce themselves contradicted, it was the very meaning of news vivid, imperative, frequently considerable. In the 1960s in America they walked for social equality and against the Vietnam War; in the '70s, they rose up in Iran and Portugal; in the '80s, they stood in opposition to atomic weapons in the U.s. also Europe, against Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, against socialist oppression in Tiananmen Square and Eastern Europe. Dissent was the regular continuation of governmental issues by different means.

And afterward came the End of History, summed up by Francis Fukuyama's powerful 1989 article announcing that humanity had touched base at the "end purpose of ideological advancement" in all inclusive triumphant "Western radicalism." The two decades starting in 1991 saw the best climb in living measures that the world has ever known. Credit was simple, smugness and lack of care were overflowing, and road dissents looked like pointless enthusiastic sideshows old, interesting, what might as well be called cavalry to mid-twentieth century war. The uncommon huge exhibitions in the rich world appeared insufficient and unessential.

There were a couple of exemptions, in the same way as the challenges that, alongside assents, helped end politically-sanctioned racial segregation in South Africa in 1994. Anyhow for youngsters, radical scrutinizes and dissents against the framework were generally limited to popular society dream: "Battle the Power" was a melody on a platinum-offering collection, Rage Against the Machine was a platinum-offering band, and the adored fearless dissidents battling the all incorporating worldwide oppressors were simply a pack of characters in The Matrix.

American Bittern

It is a large, chunky, brown bird, very similar to the Eurasian Great Bittern, Botaurus stellaris. It is 59–70 cm (23-27 inches) in length, with a 95–115 cm (37 - 45 inch) wingspan. Although common in much of its range, the American Bittern is usually well-hidden in bogs, marshes and wet meadows. Usually solitary, it walks stealthily among cattails or bulrushes.

If it senses that it has been seen, the American Bittern becomes motionless, with its bill pointed upward, causing it to blend into the reeds. It is most active at dusk. More often heard than seen, this bittern has a call that resembles a congested pump. Like other members of the heron family, the American Bittern feeds in marshes and shallow ponds, dining on amphibians, fish, insects and reptiles. This bittern winters in the southern United States and Central America. It summers throughout Canada and much of the United States.

As a long-distance migrant, it is a very rare vagrant in Europe, including Great Britain and Ireland. This bird nests in isolated places with the female building the nest and the male guarding it. Two or three eggs get incubated by the female for 29 days, and the chicks leave after 6–7 weeks. No subspecies are accepted today.

However, fossils found in the Ichetucknee River, Florida, and originally described as a new form of heron (Palaeophoyx columbiana; McCoy, 1963) were later recognized to be a smaller, prehistoric subspecies of the American Bittern which lived during the Late Pleistocene (Olson, 1974) and would thus be called B. l. columbianus. This bird's numbers have declined in the southern parts of its range due to habitat loss.
