<span>Cars became a necessity, and there were thousands of them. People moved from the cities into the suburbs. Fathers needed cars to go to work and to take the family out on Sundays. Women needed the cars to take their kids to extracurricular activities and to go to the market. Families could visit relatives and friends or take a vacation. McDonald’s became the first chain drive-in restaurant. The Eisenhower administration enacted the Interstate Highway Act which offered 40,000 miles of roads built throughout the United States. 

Cars literally changed the whole country from an economic, physical and demographic standpoint.

What is national memory? How do we create it? How can we change it?
babymother [125]

Answer:

National memory is a form of collective memory defined by shared experiences and culture. It is an integral part to national identity. ... According to Lorraine Ryan, national memory is based on the public's reception of national historic narratives and the ability of people to affirm the legitimacy of these narratives.The collective memories of a people can change over generations. ... Collective national memories are not fixed but change with the times. Collective remembering implies that collective forgetting also occurs, and we have studied such forgetting in a particular context: how rapidly presidents are forgotten.

Examine the impact of risky behaviour on the different spheres (social, emotional, physical and spiritual) of well-being by cond
torisob [31]

Answer:

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

These are the people I interviewed and what they say about taking risks.

Gentleman 1. "I did not like to take risks, but everything changed in 2006 when the company fired 40% of the employees in the marketing department. I was scared to death because I wasn't expecting that. Instead of looking for another job, my wife supported me and encouraged me to open my own business. I didn't want to but I have to, and that end up well."

Lady 2.

"I endured the unimaginable I was willing to endure more, but he asked me for the divorce. I was in shock. All of a sudden, I was alone. My family lives abroad. I was about to leave the country, but one of my friends invite me to join her bakery shop for one week, while she hired an employee. I shared some recipes from my country's cuisine, and I decide to stay for one more week, the one more month...and here I am. Alone, but with a great business partnership with my friend."

Gentlemen 3.

"I had a normal life until I was able to accept a scholarship in Oxford. I was afraid. Never before leaving this country. My family and my friends are here. I was stubborn and decided to stay in Maryland when my English grandmother told me that this opportunity only presents once in a lifetime. That piece of advice mad me change my perspective and I took the scholarship. It was the best that could have happened to me. I got back from Oxford 6 years later with a beautiful wife and a kid."

Lady 4.

"I am an explorer. Love risks. The tougher the better. Risks just are part of my life

What did mexico do to expand farms and ranches in California ?
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Explanation:

The Spanish and Mexican governments made many concessions and land grants in Alta California (now known as California) and Baja California from 1785 to 1846. The Spanish Concessions of land were made to retired soldiers as an inducement for them to remain in the frontier. These Concessions reverted to the Spanish crown upon the death of the recipient. The Mexican government later encouraged settlement by issuing much larger land grants to both native-born and naturalized Mexican citizens. The grants were usually two or more square leagues, or 35 square kilometres (14 sq mi) in size. Unlike Spanish Concessions, Mexican land grants provided permanent, unencumbered ownership rights. Most ranchos granted by Mexico were located along the California coast around San Francisco Bay, inland along the Sacramento River, and within the San Joaquin Valley.

When the government secularized the Mission churches in 1833, they required that land be set aside for each Neophyte family. But the Native Americans were quickly brushed aside by Californios who, with the help of those in power, acquired the church lands as grants. The indigenous peoples of the Americas ("Indians") instead became virtual slaves of the rancheros.

Spain made about 30 concessions between 1784 and 1821, and Mexico issued about 270 land grants between 1833 and 1846. The ranchos established permanent land-use patterns. The rancho boundaries became the basis for California's land survey system, and are found on modern maps and land titles. The "rancheros" (rancho owners) patterned themselves after the landed gentry of New Spain, and were primarily devoted to raising cattle and sheep. Their workers included Native Americans who had learned Spanish while living at one of the former Missions. The ranchos were often based on access to the resources necessary for raising cattle, such as grazing lands and water. Land development from that time forward has often followed the boundaries of the ranchos, and many of their names are still in use. For example, Rancho San Diego is now an unincorporated "rural-burb" east of San Diego, and Rancho Bernardo is a suburb in San Diego.
