Question 528
Question 527
X was one of twelve children born to Michael Jerome Williams and Denise Oher. He attended eleven different schools during his first nine years as a student. After playing football his freshman year at a public high school in Memphis, X applied for admission to the private Briarcrest Christian School, at the instigation of acquaintance Tony Henderson, with whom he was temporarily living. The school's football coach submitted X's school application to the headmaster, who agreed to accept him if X could complete a home study program first. Despite not finishing the program, he was admitted when the headmaster realized that his requirement had removed X from the public education system.
X was living with several foster families and a football teammate at Briarcrest for twenty months before Y and Sean Tuohy, a couple with a daughter and son at Briarcrest, allowed Oher to live with them. The family began taking care of his needs after becoming familiar with his difficult childhood. They also connected him with a tutor, who worked with him for twenty hours a week.
X and Y shot to fame late last year. Why?
Question 526
X is the name of a class of compounds created from nitrocellulose and camphor. X is easily molded and shaped and is no longer widely used.
English photographer John Carbutt founded the Keystone Dry Plate Works in 1879 with the intention of producing gelatin dry plates. The X Manufacturing Company was contracted for this work by means of thinly slicing layers out of X blocks and then removing the slice marks with heated pressure plates. After this, the X strips were coated with a photosensitive gelatin emulsion. A 15 inch-wide sheet of Carbutt's film was used for the early Edison motion picture experiments on a cylinder drum Kinetograph. However, the produced by this means was still considered too stiff for the needs of motion picture photography.
By 1889, more flexible Xs were developed. This ability to produce photographic images on a flexible material (as opposed to a glass or metal plate) was a crucial step toward the advent of motion pictures.

Question 524
X lived by the motto - 'never, if possible, cover any road a second time'. Fifty years earlier than Marco Polo, X travelled, on horse, camel, foot and boat, through all manner of lands, including West Africa where he visited Timbuktu, Mali and Niger. X's interest was not only confined to geography. He vividly described the prevailing political, economic and social conditions, the position of women and religious matters. X was appointed Qadi (Chief judge) of Delhi, and spent the last twenty-three years of his life as Qadi of Fez. X's main reason to travel was to go on a Hajj, or the Pilgrimage to Makkah (Mecca). But his traveling went on for about 29 years and he covered about 75,000 miles visiting the equivalent of 44 modern countries. Just id X.
