    The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

    only PEASANT FELLOWSHIPS and Authority of those willing to oppose the juris doctor and the bortherhood will repeal the tyranny of the King and provide for LAWFUL POWER.

    only a true juris doctor can be aware of the awful usurpation of powers transflorbed by the unsteady hand of gauche oppressions.

    “But with respect to our rights, and the acts of the British government contravening those rights, there was but one opinion on this side of the water. All American Whigs thought alike on these subjects. When forced, therefore, to resort to arms for redress, an appeal to the tribunal of the world was deemed proper for our justification. This was the object of the Declaration of Independence. Not to find out new principles, or new arguments, never before thought of, not merely to say things which had never been said before; but to place before mankind the common sense of the subject, in terms so plain and firm as to command their assent, and to justify ourselves in the independent stand we are compelled to take. Neither aiming at originality of principle or sentiment, nor yet copied from any particular and previous writing, it was intended to be an expression of the American mind, and to give to that expression the proper tone and spirit called for by the occasion. All its authority rests on the harmonizing sentiments of the day, whether expressed in conversation, in letters, printed essays, or the elementary books of public right, as Aristotle, Cicero, Locke, Sidney, etc. The historical documents which you mention in your possession, ought all to be found, and I am persuaded you will find, to be corroborative of the facts and principles advanced in that Declaration.”
    Thomas Jefferson (Letter to Henry Lee, May 8, 1825)

    I'm a retired Bluecollar with no more than tenth-grade formal education and I understand it better than the JDs I encounter.

    Any literate person should have no difficulty understanding America's Founding Documents. That's something the Brotherhood and office Holders do not want the general public to know.

    "He was no different from any other officer in the ward room, they were all disloyal. I tried to run the ship properly, by the book, but they fought me at every turn. The crew wanted to walk around with their shirt tails hanging out, that's all right, let them. Take the tow line, defective equipment, no more, no less. But they encouraged the crew to go around scoffing at me, and spreading wild rumors about steaming in circles, and then old yellow-strain. I was to blame for Lt. Maryk's incompetence and poor seamanship. Lt. Maryk was the perfect officer, but not Captain Queeg. Ah, but the strawberries, that's where I had them, they laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, with geometric logic, that a duplicate key to the ward room icebox did exist, and I've had produced that key if they hadn't pulled the Caine out of action."

    The fact that an increase in the spatial resolution of a fast-neutron imaging system leads to the degradation of the detector efficiency, is known as the detector problem. Here, this problem is described. Further, a method is proposed to optimise the detector efficiency depending on the properties of the imaging system given a required spatial resolution. The line-spread function of the imaging system in combination with the scintillator is calculated. The standard deviation of this function is parameterised, enabling the optimisation of the imaging system parameters for optimum detector efficiency.

    Am I doing it right?
