Why did abortion become a central consideration in the appointment of the surpreme court justices?

Grace [21]

Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), is a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court on the issue of abortion. It was decided simultaneously with a companion case, Doe v. Bolton. The Court ruled 7–2 that a right to privacyunder the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment extended to a woman's decision to have an abortion, but that this right must be balanced against the state's interests in regulating abortions: protecting women's health and protecting the potentiality of human life.[1] Arguing that these state interests became stronger over the course of a pregnancy, the Court resolved this balancing test by tying state regulation of abortion to the third trimester of pregnancy.

Later, in Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992), the Court rejected Roe's trimester framework while affirming its central holding that a woman has a right to abortion until fetal viability.[2] The Roe decision defined "viable" as "potentially able to live outside the mother's womb, albeit with artificial aid."[3] Justices in Casey acknowledged that viability may occur at 23 or 24 weeks, or sometimes even earlier, in light of medical advances.[4]

In disallowing many state and federal restrictions on abortion in the United States,[5][6] Roe v. Wade prompted a national debate that continues today about issues including whether, and to what extent, abortion should be legal, who should decide the legality of abortion, what methods the Supreme Court should use in constitutional adjudication, and what the role should be of religious and moral views in the political sphere. Roe v. Wade reshaped national politics, dividing much of the United States into pro-abortion and anti-abortion camps, while activating grassroots movements on both sides.

What happens in chapters 5-6 in my brother sam is dead

valentina_108 [34]

Spoiler alert!

⚠️Warning⚠️

The following is extremely long and it is advised to just research it on another website.

You have been warned.

So for a while it was easy to pretend the war wasn't going on.

But now that there are Continentals gathering up all the guns in Redding and lots of people telling stories about battles, the war is becoming seriously real.

Plus, the war is making food a bit tougher to come by. This means that sometimes people in Redding have their cows stolen by hungry soldiers. It also means that prices in the tavern are going way up. (We'd like to interrupt this summary for a Shmoop Mini Econ Lesson: when there's not much food around, people will pay more for it. That means the prices can go sky high. Now back to our regularly scheduled revolutionary programming.)

For Tim, there's one thing about this war that particularly stinks: missing his big bro. He's constantly worried that something is going to happen to Sam.

But he also admires his big brother for being brave.

In fact, thinking about his brother has Tim musing on a very important question: "if I went for a soldier, which army would I join?" (5.8) Sheesh, that's not just a big question, that's the big question.

Tim doesn't know which side he'd choose. Would he rather have "the best uniforms" like the British? Or would he like to be with the "underdogs" and fight with the Patriots? (5.8) Guess we'll just have to wait to find out.

One day, Mr. Heron (a rich Tory guy who lives nearby) and Tom Warrups come into the tavern for a drink.

Actually, it turns out that Mr. Heron is there for more than just a drink: he's got to ask Tim for a favor. According to Mr. Heron, all he wants Tim to do is carry some "business letters" to the nearby town of Fairfield (5.36).

Tim is seriously stoked about this idea. An adventure! To deliver letters! We're not sure yet, but something about the way Mr. Heron and Mr. Meeker are talking about "business letters" makes it sound like they aren't really business letters, you know?

Anyway, Mr. Meeker thinks the idea of Tim walking all by himself to another town to deliver these weird letters sounds pretty sketchy.

Mr. Heron says that Tom Warrups can't do it because he'd draw too much attention, while a boy wouldn't get bothered. Okay, it's official: now we have a seriously weird feeling about these so-called "business letters." Mr. Meeker puts his foot down and says Tim won't get to play postman.

Tim is bummed, but once Mr. Heron and Tom leave, he finds out why his dad was so anti-adventure: "Those weren't business letters, Tim" (5.51). (Yeah, we know.) Tim figures that these "business letters" are probably some super crazy important war letters. And all he wants is to be part of this war like his brother. He figures that since Mr. Heron is a Tory and his dad is a Tory, it shouldn't be a problem for him to play messenger.

So he decides to stand up to his dad, Sam-style.

Let's get real here: this confrontation doesn't go too well. Tim yells, his dad yells, and it looks like Tim loses because he doesn't change his papa's mind. Oh well. Hold up: looks like Tim isn't giving up that quickly.

He waits patiently for an opportunity to trick his dad, and two weeks later he gets one.

Tim's friend Jerry asks him to go fishing and Mr. Meeker says sure. Sneaky little Tim's plan has worked: "I had my excuse to get away" (5.77). Yeah, we've got a bad feeling about this.

Hope this helps!

Why did the eastern part of the roman empire last longer than the western part

omeli [17]

There are many reasons but here's two

1. The 'war' and invasion etc was fought in the West so the province that you are going to have to raise troops and revenue from to fight the war is the same one where all the fighting takes place.

Meanwhile the 'East' had Anatolia as a heartland for revenue and recruits that was untouched .

<span>2. There is a lot of evidence that it wasn't simply 'barbarian' invasion but also a large element of rebellion against central authority by local forces. These are the people who are supposed to supply your troops and revenue.</span>

3. How did farmers play a key role in the success of Egypt's economic<br> system?

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

When the river Nile flooded, water, mud and silt from the river was washed up over the river banks creating a fertile growing area. During the period of the flood the Egyptian farmers spent time mending and making tools and looking after the animals. Many farmers also worked for the pharaoh during this time building pyramids and temples.
