Answer:

We can best infer that Sickles had good lawyers because:

C) He used the very first temporary insanity defense.

Explanation:

This question refers to Daniel Edgar Sickles, an American soldier and politician who, in 1859, short to death his wife's lover. Sickles was an influential and well-connected man. He received several visits from important people while in jail, and <u>made sure to secure very capable and efficient people as his lawyers. As a matter of fact, it was in his trial that "temporary insanity" was used for the first time in history. According to his lawyers, Sickle had temporarily lost his mind due to the rage of finding out his wife was having an affair. Therefore, he was not himself when he shot her lover to death. His lawyers also made sure to leak certain information to newspapers and get everybody talking about the case as tactics to ensure the result they wanted. They were successful and Sickles was acquitted.</u>

ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS

"ONE MUST LEARN TO NURTURE NATURE TO OBTAIN A BETTER FUTURE"

Environmental awareness is to understand the fragility of our environment and the importance of its protection. Promoting environmental awareness is an easy way to become an environmental steward and participate in creating a brighter future for our children.

Environmentalism is an ideology that evokes the necessity and responsibility of humans to respect, protect, and preserve the natural world from its anthropogenic (caused by humans) afflictions.

Environmental awareness is an integral part of the movement’s success. By teaching our friends and family that the physical environment is fragile and indispensable we can begin fixing the problems that threaten it.When learning about the environment’s declining health it is easy to feel discouraged, but what keeps us fighting for a healthy world is the future of our children. They should not have to inherit our environmental problems and in order to keep their future bright, spreading awareness is imperative.

Before you can begin promoting environmental awareness in your own community you must first make sure that you have a thorough understanding of environmental issues.

A good course of action that ensures your continued participation as a global citizen is to pick an environmental issue that strikes you as most urgent. The amount of environmental issue seems limitless and while they are all important it is best to initially focus on one cause.

There are many issues that need fixing in todays world. For example oil drilling, deforestation, excess use of non biodegredable waste etc.

In a nutshell, we do not inherit the worl from our ancestors but borrow it from our children and it is our responsibilty to take care of our planet.

liraira [26]

This statement shows how our state of mind and our emotional and psychological balance can influence our real life for better or for worse, that is, our life is a mirror of how we are feeling inside.

With this we can conclude that when we are emotionally well, we act, act and do our daily actions in a pleasant and positive way that reflects in our life that becomes good and of quality.

However, when we are badly with ourselves and emotionally and psychologically unmotivated, negative, melancholy we pass this feeling on to everything we do, which makes our life bad, uncomfortable and sad.

PLEASEEE HEEEEEEELPPP

The accurate comparison is that from Beowulf's perspective, Grendel is a villain, but from Grendel's perspective, Hrothgar and the D**es are the villains.

<h3>Why do Grendel and Beowulf disagree about who the Visions are?</h3>
  • Beowulf believes that Grendel is the villain because he causes the suffering of humans.
  • Grendel believes that humans are the villains because it was they who invaded Grendel's region and tried to expel him.

Grendel is not a harmless creature and for that reason, when he feels threatened and has his habitat invaded by humans, he attacks them furiously and violently.

This shows that to Grendel, he is innocent, but to Beowulf and the other humans, Grendel is the villain.
