The correct answer is E.

<em>Executive privilege</em> is the power of the President of the United States to refuse to comply with demands for information like congressional subpoenas or Freedom of Information Act requests.

This privilege is used to keep private some conversations the President has with his trusted advisers or during international meetings and discussions.

This privilege can not be used as a cover-up for wrongdoings. President Nixon was ordered to hand in some suspicious tapes for judicial review, despite his executive privilege.

Executive privilege is not mentioned in the Constitution but it is seen as a tool of separation and balance of power.

zhuklara [117]

Answer: flavors of ice cream

Explanation: Subjectivism theory sees values of what is morally right or wrong like the "flavors of ice cream" i.e values of what is right or wrong is just a matter of what one personally prefers.

This theory holds that there is nothing like objective moral truth and and the only standard of judgement should be that of individuals rather than communal i.e the standard of judgement should be the individual moral conscience.

Research an invention in America from the 1800's. Post your invention and a picture on the discussion board. Be sure to include
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Elias Howe Jr. was an American inventor best known for his creation of the modern lockstitch sewing machine. This invetion  was in 1846. The very first lockstitch sewing machine in the world.  His invention helped the mass production of sewing machines and clothing. That in turn revolutionized the sewing industry and freed women from some of the drudgery of daily life at the time. Contrary to popular belief, Howe was not the first to conceive of the idea of a sewing machine. Many other people formulated the idea of such a machine before him, one as early as 1790, and some had even patented their designs and produced working machines, in one case, at least 80 of them.

It was Howe, however, who came up with significant refinements to the design concepts of his predecessors, and on September 10, 1846, he was awarded the first U.S. Patent (4,750) for a sewing machine using a lockstitch design. His machine contained the three essential features common in most modern machines: a needle with the eye at the point; a shuttle operating beneath the cloth to form the lock stitch; and an automatic feed.

Howe's design demonstrated the novel idea of a needle that carried the thread forward, through a piece of material, where another thread, held in a metal shuttle, passed through a loop in the middle thread (caused by the needle moving forward then suddenly backward). The needle was then retracted and this action pulled the two threads to lock them in the fabric. This is how the lockstitch was born.

The sewing machine is easier to use and also you can repair worn, torn or unused clothes by yourself. You can re-design your old clothing. You can even become a fashion trend-setter by making clothes in your own style. Having a sewing machine will save you from going to a tailor, thus helping you to save money.

hope this helps!! :)
