	Reconstruction. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		The newly created Joint Committee on Reconstruction reported (Apr. 28, 1866) that the ex-Confederate states were in a state of civil disorder, and hence, had not held valid elections.
		Reconstruction officially ended as all federal troops were withdrawn from the South.
		Reconstruction was portrayed as a tragic era during which vindictive, scheming, radical Republicans imposed harsh military rule on a vanquished South and supported corrupt state governments dominated by unscrupulous carpetbaggers, scalawags, and uneducated freedmen.

	Breast Reconstruction
		Breast reconstruction does not really restore the missing breast, but it usually does allow the patient to wear normal clothing, feel more normal, and carry on her daily activities without being constantly reminded that she is a cancer patient.
		Breast reconstruction can be performed at the same time as the mastectomy (immediate reconstruction) or months or years later when the patient chooses to undergo reconstruction at a later time (delayed reconstruction).
		Although the results of nipple reconstruction are not perfect, the presence of a reconstructed nipple does contribute significantly to the illusion of having re-created a normal breast (Figure 15).

	The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow . Jim Crow Stories . Reconstruction \| PBS
		Reconstruction generally refers to the period in United States history immediately following the Civil War in which the federal government set the conditions that would allow the rebellious Southern states back into the Union.

		A synthetic implant is often used to augment the reconstruction to match the size of the remaining breast.

		Strongly sympathetic to the South and its citizens, Dunning held the North responsible for Reconstruction ills and the South blameless for refusing to be “subjugated” by Reconstruction or the freedmen.

	Reconstruction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Reconstruction was a period in United States history, 1862–1877, that resolved the issues of the American Civil War when both the Confederacy and its system of slavery were destroyed.
		The period of Reconstruction addressed the return of the southern states that had seceded, the status of ex-Confederate leaders, and the integration of the African-American Freedmen into the legal, political, economic and social system.
		As one scholar notes, for the Dunning School, "Reconstruction was a battle between two extremes: the Democrats, as the group which included the vast majority of the whites, standing for decent government and racial supremacy, versus the Republicans, the Negroes, alien carpetbaggers, and renegade scalawags, standing for dishonest government and alien ideals.

		While Reconstruction has some clever, sometimes startling imagery-particularly in the shadowy motif of a figure in freefall-none of the characters emerge much beyond stick figures or chess pieces in Boe's elaborate yet superficial exploration of what, one presumes, are matters of the heart.
		Reconstruction is most likely to appeal to younger, less experienced filmgoers for whom the bait and switch narrative techniques will seem more substantial; otherwise the film plays out with the opaqueness of an extended, overlong perfume advert.
		That said, Reconstruction is a major winner for the Copenhagen Board of Tourism.

		They demand such a reconstruction as shall put an end to the present anarchical state of things in the late rebellious States,--where frightful murders and wholesale massacres are perpetrated in the very presence of Federal soldiers.
		They want a reconstruction such as will protect loyal men, fl and white, in their persons and property; such a one as will cause Northern industry, Northern capital, and Northern civilization to flow into the South, and make a man from New England as much at home in Carolina as elsewhere in the Republic.
		The mistake of the last session was the attempt to do this very thing, by a renunciation of its power to secure political rights to any class of citizens, with the obvious purpose to allow the rebellious States to disfranchise, if they should see fit, their colored citizens.

	Breast reconstruction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Reconstruction of the areola and nipple are performed in a separate operation after the skin has stretched to its final size.
		One of the challenges in breast reconstruction is to match the reconstructed breast to the mature breast on the other side (often fairly 'ptotic' - droopy.) This often requires a lift (mastopexy), reduction, or augmentation of the other breast.
		Recovery from implant-based reconstruction is generally faster than with flap-based reconstructions, but both take at least three to six weeks to recover and both require follow-up surgeries in order to construct a new areola and nipple.
