List of Greek episodes
Greek is an American comedy-drama television series which follows the students of fictional Cyprus-Rhodes University (CRU) who participate in the school's Greek system. It was created by Patrick Sean Smith, and premiered on ABC Family network on July 9, 2007.
Series overview
After the first 10 episodes of Greek aired, production was halted because of the Writers Guild Strike. Prior to the airing of the remainder of season 1, a compilation of the first 10 episodes titled Season One: Chapter One was released. Following suit, the latter half of season 1 was later compiled as Season 1: Chapter Two. Later seasons would be divided into two halves, or simply "chapters."
Season 1: 2007-2008

Loyalist (American Revolution)
Loyalists were American colonists who remained loyal to the British Crown during the American Revolutionary War. At the time they were often called Tories, Royalists, or King's Men; Patriots called them "persons inimical to the liberties of America." They were opposed by the Patriots, those who supported the revolution. When their cause was defeated, about 15% of the Loyalists or 65,000–70,000 fled to other parts of the British Empire, to Britain or elsewhere in British North America. The southern colonists moved mostly to Florida, which had remained loyal to the Crown, and to British Caribbean possessions, while northern colonists largely migrated to Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia, where they were called United Empire Loyalists. Most were compensated with Canadian land or British cash distributed through formal claims procedures.
Historians have estimated that between 15 and 20 percent of the 2.5 million whites in the colonies were Loyalists, or about 500,000 men, women and children. Numerous black Americans were also Loyalists. In Nova Scotia, the community of Birchtown was one of three communities settled by black Loyalists.

War (painting)
War is a painting created by Portuguese-British visual artist Paula Rego in 2003.
Description
War is a large pastel on paper composition measuring 1600mm x 1200mm. A rabbit-headed woman stands prominently in the center carrying a wounded child, surrounded by several realistic and fantastic figures recalling a style Rego describes as "beautiful grotesque".
For The Telegraph's Alastair Sooke, "The more you look at War, the curiouser and curiouser it becomes. Rego's white rabbits owe more to Richard Kelly's film Donnie Darko than Lewis Carroll's Wonderland."
Background
The painting first appeared as part of Rego's "Jane Eyre and Other Stories" exhibition at Marlborough Fine Art in London in 2003. It was inspired by a photograph that appeared in The Guardian near the beginning of the Iraq War, in which a girl in a white dress is seen running from an explosion, with a woman and her baby unmoving behind her. In an interview conducted in relation to the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía's 2007 exhibition, Rego said of this painting, "I thought I would do a picture about these children getting hurt, but I turned them into rabbits' heads, like masks. It’s very difficult to do it with humans, it doesn’t get the same kind of feel at all. It seemed more real to transform them into creatures."

America's Loyalists : Where Did They Go After The War?

Dishonored Americans: The Political Death of Loyalists in Revolutionary America | Timothy Compeau
In the final words of the Declaration of Independence, the signatories famously pledged their lives, their fortunes and their “sacred Honor” to one another, but what about those who made the opposite choice? By looking through the lens of honor culture of the period, Timothy Compeau, assistant professor of history at Huron University College at the University of Western Ontario, offers an innovative assessment of the experience of Americans who made the fateful decision to remain loyal to the British Crown during and after the Revolution. Loyalists, as Dr. Compeau explains, suffered a “political death” at the hands of American Patriots. A term drawn from eighteenth-century sources, “political death” encompassed the legal punishments and ritualized dishonors Patriots used to defeat Loyalis...

North of America: Loyalists, Indigenous Nations, and the Borders of the Long American Revolution
At the start of the Revolutionary War, independence had its limits as patriots were surrounded by indigenous peoples and loyalists throughout the northern regions that straddled the colonial borders, and these foreign neighbors were far from inactive during the Revolution. Upper Canada, Lower Canada, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, and especially the homelands that straddled colonial borders were far less foreign to the men and women who established the United States than Canada is to those who live here now. Jeffers Lennox, associate professor of history at Wesleyan University, describes how the participation of the loyal northern British provinces and indigenous nations—that largely rejected the Revolution as antagonists, opponents or, bystanders—frustrated patriot ambitions, s...

Loyalists Pay Heavy Price During Revolution
During the American Revolution, roughly one quarter of colonists did not want to separate from England. From their perspective, life in the English colonies of North America was relatively good. They believed in their rights as deeply as the most devoted Patriot, but rebelling against their king was a line they would not cross. Tom Hand, creator and publisher of Americana Corner, explores what happened to those who chose to stay loyal to King George during the Revolutionary War, and why it still matters today.

Who Were Loyalists During the American Revolutionary War? | History Brought To Life
► In this video, we have the privilege of examining and bringing to life two rare daguerreotype photos of a fascinating couple, captured sometime in the 1860s. Silas Knight Sr. and Phoebe Short are members of a pioneering Loyalist family, the Knights, who resettled in Canada after the American Revolutionary War. ► Who were Loyalists during the American Revolutionary War? ► Loyalists were colonists who remained true to the Crown during the American Revolutionary War that took place between 1775 and 1783. At the end of the war, the most active Loyalists were unwelcome in the newly-formed United States. Consequently, they were compelled to flee their homes, leaving behind everything they owned. Many had their property confiscated by the American rebels. In response to their plight, thousand...

In the final words of the Declaration of Independence, the signatories famously pledged their lives, their fortunes and their “sacred Honor” to one another, but what about those who made the opposite choice? By looking through the lens of honor culture of the period, Timothy Compeau, assistant professor of history at Huron University College at the University of Western Ontario, offers an innovative assessment of the experience of Americans who made the fateful decision to remain loyal to the British Crown during and after the Revolution. Loyalists, as Dr. Compeau explains, suffered a “political death” at the hands of American Patriots. A term drawn from eighteenth-century sources, “political death” encompassed the legal punishments and ritualized dishonors Patriots used to defeat Loyalist public figures and discredit their counter-revolutionary vision for America. By highlighting this dynamic, Dr. Compeau makes a significant intervention in the long-standing debate over the social and cultural factors that motivated colonial Americans to choose sides in the conflict, narrating in compelling detail the severe consequences for once-respected gentlemen who were stripped of their rights, privileges and power in Revolutionary America.
About the Speaker:
Timothy Compeau is an assistant professor of history at Huron University College in London, Ontario, Canada, and received his Ph.D. from the University of Western Ontario. His research focuses on the British Empire in the eighteenth and early nineteenth century, with a specific focus on honor culture and loyalism in the Age of Revolutions. He is the project director of “Loyalist Migrations,” a partnership with the United Empire Loyalists Associations of Canada (UELAC), which allows researchers access to genealogical records of the UELAC, as well as other archival sources, to reconstruct the migrations of thousands of exiles, refugees, economic migrants, settlers and soldiers from all walks of life who fled the American Revolution. He was also the co-editor of Seeing the Past with Computers: Experiments with Augmented Reality and Computer Vision for History (University of Michigan Press, 2019).

► In this video, we have the privilege of examining and bringing to life two rare daguerreotype photos of a fascinating couple, captured sometime in the 1860s. Silas Knight Sr. and Phoebe Short are members of a pioneering Loyalist family, the Knights, who resettled in Canada after the American Revolutionary War.
► Who were Loyalists during the American Revolutionary War?
► Loyalists were colonists who remained true to the Crown during the American Revolutionary War that took place between 1775 and 1783.
At the end of the war, the most active Loyalists were unwelcome in the newly-formed United States. Consequently, they were compelled to flee their homes, leaving behind everything they owned. Many had their property confiscated by the American rebels.
In response to their plight, thousands of loyalists were granted resettlement in North America by the British Crown. They found a new home in the Province of Canada, now known as Ontario and Quebec. These resilient pioneers were determined to start afresh and build a new life in a new land that was both beautiful and untamed.
One such pioneering family was the Knights, who fled from Philadelphia and resettled in the Long Point settlement in Canada.
Silas Knight, the main subject of this video, comes from this family. His father and uncle were among the first colonists to be known as United Empire Loyalists who took refuge in Canada after the Revolutionary War. They fought in the war of 1812 as part of the Lincoln Militia.
Silas Knight married Phoebe Short, an early American of the Metis Cree nation and together they had 6 children. Their epic journeys and rich history can be learned from their website silasknight.com which is being maintained by their direct descendant, David Knight.

Today's Daily Dose short history film covers Loyalists, Patriots and Neutral Americans during the Revolutionary War. The filmmaker has included the original voice over script to further assist your understanding:
Today on The Daily Dose, Loyalists v. Patriots and the American Revolution.
Considered by many historians to be the first civil war fought on American soil, John Adams famously declared that colonial Americans were divided into three equal groups—Patriots, Loyalist and those who remained neutral to the conflict. Adams’ equal division numbers may have been somewhat skewed, since by the end of the Revolutionary War, roughly 20% of Americans fought or sided with the British, while an estimated 30 to 40% of Americans called themselves Patriots. Scholars have also searched deeply for common factors that made Americans sway one way or the other, and while no credible evidence can be found relating to education levels, occupations, wealth or social stratification, when Patriot Ben Franklin’s son William proclaimed himself loyal to the crown, father and son would never speak again.
What can be gleaned from the war is that Scotch-Irish immigrants in newly-settled backcountry regions distrusted eastern Patriot elites and therefore sided with the British, while many religious groups such as the Quakers and the Mennonites remained neutral due to their pacifists beliefs. Many members of the Church of England along with Presbyterians, however, chose the Loyalist side, while many Neutrals remained that way under the belief that Great Britain’s overwhelming strength and military prowess would ultimately win the day. After Royal Virginia Governor Lord Dunmore offered male slaves freedom should they take up arms for the king’s cause, when British and Loyalist troops swept through the South in 1779, roughly 20% of the enslaved population took up arms for the British. As for free Blacks in the eastern colonies, an estimated 5,000 men served in the Continental Army by the end of the Revolutionary War.
With a total U.S. population of two and a half million in 1776, by war’s end, an estimated 6,800 Americans had been killed in action, with an additional 6,100 wounded and upwards of 20,000 taken prisoner. 17,000 more would die from the outbreak of infectious diseases, while 8,000 to 12,000 more died in British prison camps. As for Britain’s losses, an estimated 24,000 to 25,000 British and Loyalist soldiers died during the Revolutionary War, including 1,700 Loyalist killed in action, while an additional 5,300 were lost to disease, making the Revolutionary War, the first great divide in American history.
And there you have it, America’s first civil war, today on The Daily Dose.

This is the story of the paths taken by American Loyalists after the war - their struggles to find a new home, and the new parts of the empire they found themselves in.
Primary source was Liberty's Exiles: American Loyalists in the Revolutionary World among other texts.
As a proud American, I've always been fascinated by the question of what happened to the third of the country who fought for the British. This video was my attempt to tell their story - with sympathy. Obviously if we were to make a video on the back and forth miseries perpetuated by each side, the video would be far too long - so this video's scope is simple: tell the Loyalists' story, and tell it fairly. I hope you enjoy.

In the final words of the Declaration of Independence, the signatories famously pledged their lives, their fortunes and their “sacred Honor” to one another, but what about those who made the opposite choice? By looking through the lens of honor culture of the period, Timothy Compeau, assistant professor of history at Huron University College at the University of Western Ontario, offers an innovative assessment of the experience of Americans who made the fateful decision to remain loyal to the British Crown during and after the Revolution. Loyalists, as Dr. Compeau explains, suffered a “political death” at the hands of American Patriots. A term drawn from eighteenth-century sources, “political death” encompassed the legal punishments and ritualized dishonors Patriots used to defeat Loyalist public figures and discredit their counter-revolutionary vision for America. By highlighting this dynamic, Dr. Compeau makes a significant intervention in the long-standing debate over the social and cultural factors that motivated colonial Americans to choose sides in the conflict, narrating in compelling detail the severe consequences for once-respected gentlemen who were stripped of their rights, privileges and power in Revolutionary America.
About the Speaker:
Timothy Compeau is an assistant professor of history at Huron University College in London, Ontario, Canada, and received his Ph.D. from the University of Western Ontario. His research focuses on the British Empire in the eighteenth and early nineteenth century, with a specific focus on honor culture and loyalism in the Age of Revolutions. He is the project director of “Loyalist Migrations,” a partnership with the United Empire Loyalists Associations of Canada (UELAC), which allows researchers access to genealogical records of the UELAC, as well as other archival sources, to reconstruct the migrations of thousands of exiles, refugees, economic migrants, settlers and soldiers from all walks of life who fled the American Revolution. He was also the co-editor of Seeing the Past with Computers: Experiments with Augmented Reality and Computer Vision for History (University of Michigan Press, 2019).

Loyalists in the American Revolution, by Professor Jack N. Rakove. This short video clarifies the role played by Loyalists throughout the American Revolution. Never more than 1/5 of the population, Loyalists’ political and military significance varied both chronologically and geographically. Professor Jack N. Rakove highlights the efforts of British forces in the Southern colonies to enlist Loyalists in hopes of “pacifying” the countryside, but concludes that there were too few Loyalists for this strategy to succeed.
Professor Jack N. Rakove is the W.R. Coe Professor of History and American Studies and professor of political science at Stanford University. Professor Rakove was awarded the 1997 Pulitzer Prize for History for his book, "Original Meanings: Politics and Ideas in the Making of the Constitution."

At the start of the Revolutionary War, independence had its limits as patriots were surrounded by indigenous peoples and loyalists throughout the northern regions that straddled the colonial borders, and these foreign neighbors were far from inactive during the Revolution. Upper Canada, Lower Canada, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, and especially the homelands that straddled colonial borders were far less foreign to the men and women who established the United States than Canada is to those who live here now. Jeffers Lennox, associate professor of history at Wesleyan University, describes how the participation of the loyal northern British provinces and indigenous nations—that largely rejected the Revolution as antagonists, opponents or, bystanders—frustrated patriot ambitions, shaped the progress of the conflict, and influenced the American nation’s early development.
About the Speaker
Jeffers Lennox is an assistant professor of history at Wesleyan University where he teaches courses on early North America, with a specific focus on the history of interactions between British, French, and Indigenous peoples. Before joining the academic staff at Wesleyan University, Dr. Lennox taught at Dalhousie University and the University of British Columbia. His first book, Homelands & Empires: Indigenous Spaces, Imperial Fictions, and Competition for Territory in Northeastern North America, 1690-1763 (University of Toronto Press, 2017) explored how the Wabanaki peoples, French settlers, and British colonists used borders, land use, and the language of geography to control territory in what is now Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Northern Maine and won several awards including the Clio award from the Canadian Historical Association and the John Lyman Book Award from the North American Society for Oceanic History.

During the American Revolution, roughly one quarter of colonists did not want to separate from England. From their perspective, life in the English colonies of North America was relatively good. They believed in their rights as deeply as the most devoted Patriot, but rebelling against their king was a line they would not cross.
Tom Hand, creator and publisher of Americana Corner, explores what happened to those who chose to stay loyal to King George during the Revolutionary War, and why it still matters today.

► In this video, we have the privilege of examining and bringing to life two rare daguerreotype photos of a fascinating couple, captured sometime in the 1860s. Silas Knight Sr. and Phoebe Short are members of a pioneering Loyalist family, the Knights, who resettled in Canada after the American Revolutionary War.
► Who were Loyalists during the American Revolutionary War?
► Loyalists were colonists who remained true to the Crown during the American Revolutionary War that took place between 1775 and 1783.
At the end of the war, the most active Loyalists were unwelcome in the newly-formed United States. Consequently, they were compelled to flee their homes, leaving behind everything they owned. Many had their property confiscated by the American rebels.
In response to their plight, thousands of loyalists were granted resettlement in North America by the British Crown. They found a new home in the Province of Canada, now known as Ontario and Quebec. These resilient pioneers were determined to start afresh and build a new life in a new land that was both beautiful and untamed.
One such pioneering family was the Knights, who fled from Philadelphia and resettled in the Long Point settlement in Canada.
Silas Knight, the main subject of this video, comes from this family. His father and uncle were among the first colonists to be known as United Empire Loyalists who took refuge in Canada after the Revolutionary War. They fought in the war of 1812 as part of the Lincoln Militia.
Silas Knight married Phoebe Short, an early American of the Metis Cree nation and together they had 6 children. Their epic journeys and rich history can be learned from their website silasknight.com which is being maintained by their direct descendant, David Knight.

Scholars have also searched deeply for common factors that made Americans sway one way or the other, and while no credible evidence can be found relating to education levels, occupations, wealth or social stratification, when Patriot Ben Franklin’s son William proclaimed himself loyal to the crown, father and son would never speak again.
What can be gleaned from the war is that Scotch-Irish immigrants in newly-settled backcountry regions distrusted eastern Patriot elites and therefore sided with the British, while many religious groups such as the Quakers and the Mennonites remained neutral due to their pacifists beliefs. Many members of the Church of England along with Presbyterians, however, chose the Loyalist side, while many Neutrals remained that way under the belief that Great Britain’s overwhelming strength and military prowess would ultimately win the day. After Royal Virginia Governor Lord Dunmore offered male slaves freedom should they take up arms for the king’s cause, when British and Loyalist troops swept through the South in 1779, roughly 20% of the enslaved population took up arms for the British. As for free Blacks in the eastern colonies, an estimated 5,000 men served in the Continental Army by the end of the Revolutionary War.
With a total U.S. population of two and a half million in 1776, by war’s end, an estimated 6,800 Americans had been killed in action, with an additional 6,100 wounded and upwards of 20,000 taken prisoner. 17,000 more would die from the outbreak of infectious diseases, while 8,000 to 12,000 more died in British prison camps. As for Britain’s losses, an estimated 24,000 to 25,000 British and Loyalist soldiers died during the Revolutionary War, including 1,700 Loyalist killed in action, while an additional 5,300 were lost to disease, making the Revolutionary War, the first great divide in American history.
And there you have it, America’s first civil war, today on The Daily Dose.

War & Peace
by: Ice CubeIce Cube the great!!
"He has indicated to us that he has sufficient.. firepower..
to.. blow up the Bradley vehicle..
and in fact his words were,
We are ready for war.. let's get it on"
War..
"War, and peace"
Sing it!
War and peace... (Sing it!)
War and peace, forever!
War and peace, together.. always!
I'm at the highest peak, still glad the meak is understandin me
Artillery, thoughts of killin me is just a fantasy
The man in me is ready for war, like Holyfield/Tyson IV
A gang against you niggaz on the shore
Either or, your whole family is on the floor
Windows breakin all around em, you can't climb this mountain
I'm at the fountain, with my troops
I start screamin at em like Patton, we gattin at you fools!
Negotiate...
strategy is the key!
I hope they ain't...
exclusively after me!
Cause if they are...
we gots to be who we be!
And make a star...
out of a head enemy!
The papers said...
that he died tragically!
They found his head...
with no legs and bo-dy!
We made a pledge...
to the Dub-S-C!
Bloodshed...
if they got no love for peace!
Sing it!
I'd rather break bread than uhh, break your head
Break your legs, have em broken, I ain't no joke
Don't provoke, the gun smoke from the highest slope
Eternal peace, for my peoples and my folks
My crips and my bloods, criminals and my thugs
Just show a nigga love when I'm rollin on them dubs
Just, give a nigga hugs, we can ride on this piece
Westside for Life but still down with the East
Sing it!
After the haters attempt to blow up his car
We find our hero, Ice Cube, on the ground
Bruised, but not beaten
He pulls out his cell phone.. WITH THE CHIP!
And begins to dial Mack One-Oh
Who's faded and rolling through Inglewood
with Mr. Short KHOP
