To move welfare recipients from continual dependency on public assistance and into the workforce.

The P<span>ersonal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act serves as an example of how President Bill Clinton favored some centrist policies and cooperation between Democrats and Republicans.  Reforming welfare was a priority of the "Contract with America" programs Republicans had pledged during the 1994 congressional campaigns.  The program also aligned with Democratic candidate Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign promise to "end welfare as we have come to know it."</span>

Summarize the process of “trial by water.” Where in the Code of Hammurabi is this process described?
Alla [95]
Hammurabi keenly understood that, to achieve this goal, he needed one universal set of laws for the diverse peoples he conquered.
Trial by cold water was when the accused was thrown into a pool of water bound. If he/she sank and drowned he/she was innocent (and conveniently dead). If he/she floated and did not sink, he was taken to have been "rejected" by the water and must necessarily be guilty.

Which event hampered the navy's growth during the 1800's?
lyudmila [28]
The correct answer is either manifest destiny or the civil war

Because of the civil war and the expenses of maintaining a navy that could blockade Confederate ports, the Navy was constantly losing power and ships and after the war ended most of the 700 initial ships were completely out of service. As manifest destiny and reconstruction began spreading, the government did not focus on rebuilding its navy and a large part of the navy that remained had to focus on things like helping merchants or doing civilian runs in order to be sustained.
