History

Answer:  A. The creation of an Electoral College to select the President.

Details:

The Electoral College is the way that Presidents of the United States gain the office of the presidency.  Each state has a specified number of delegates, and the popular vote in each state determines how the state's designated electors are to vote.  In this way, the President is chosen not solely on the basis of the national popular vote totals, but more so on the basis of state-by state vote totals.

As defined by the US National Archives, "The Electoral College is a process, not a place. The founding fathers established it in the Constitution as a compromise between election of the President by a vote in Congress and election of the President by a popular vote of qualified citizens.   The Electoral College process consists of the selection of the electors, the meeting of the electors where they vote for President and Vice President, and the counting of the electoral votes by Congress."

Electoral votes are allocated among the states based on the Census. Every state is allocated a number of votes equal to the number of senators and representatives in its U.S. Congressional delegation—two votes for its senators in the U.S. Senate plus a number of votes equal to the number of its members in the U. S. House of Representatives.

In which year did the federal government develop the financial incentive program to support the implementation of ehr?
ziro4ka [17]

Since the 60s, an electronic medical record system has been used, in order to simplify and make easier the access to medical records of many patients. In recent years, the goal of providing high quality medical service led the Government to enact the  ARRA, which stands for American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in 2009, that contains financialincentives for those physicians and hospitals that adop the Electronic Health Records or EHR system.

It basically works by distributing a series of bonuses throughout physicians and hospitals who show they are using the EHR to increase the quality of the treatments they are providing to patients, and it is expected that this program would distribute over $30 billion after it was adopted in 2009.

BARSIC [14]

1) In this passage Cortez is describing in great details the temples, the natives’ religion and how he tried to convince them that there was only one God they should worship. At first natives protested but them accepted the rules imposed by the conqueror.  

2) Cortez describes in a very detailed version how the temples were built. He sounded surprised and amazed by the architecture of the temples as well as the decoration of idols. Evidence from the passage can be found in the following parts: “Among these temples there is one which far surpasses all the rest, whose grandeur of architectural details no human tongue is able to describe”, “The stone and wood of which they are constructed are so well wrought in every part, that nothing could be better done”, “Three halls are in this grand temple, which contain the principal idols; these are of wonderful extent and height, and admirable workmanship”.  

3) According to the excerpt, Cortez did not agree or understand the religion of the natives, especially the part of human sacrifices. He tried to convince natives that there was only one God and that there was not such a thing as receiving favors from the Idols.
