The Navajo code was created by Philip Johnston. His father was a missionary, who spent years on a Navajo reservation, allowing Philip to grow up in contact with the language of the Navajo people, which made him learn this language fluently. The Navajo language was very complex, difficult to pronounce and write, which meant that very few people in the world, apart from the Navajos, could understand and learn that language.

Thus, the Navajo language became ideal for messages to be transmitted during the Second World War, without the enemy's army being able to decipher it.

The Navajo code was assembled by a set of Navajo words, where each word symbolized a phrase or other words in the English language.

An example is the word SO-A-LA-IH. In Navajo, this word means "star", but in the Navajo code it symbolized that the message provided was destined for Brigadier General Americano, since his insignia was a star.

guapka [62]

Answer:

The answer is- He lived in a foster home with a family that treats him kindly

Explanation:

During the renaissance in the 14th to 16th century, there was a rise in humanism and emphasis on human welfare. Instead of locking mentally ill patients away, a new school of doctors promoted the idea of asylums which were huge, sun-filled, well ventilated and asserted that things like rest and taking a human approach would improve the prognosis of individuals that were mentally ill.

This brought up a family care program, restraints were not used on the patients, the patients were placed in the care of a family and staff to proper monitor them. Patients were called boarders as it describes a social role in the community. This enabled them to be able to be provided the proper care, attention and love they deserved and to be accepted for who they were. In the 1400s, in Gheel, Belgium Anton who was mentally ill lived in a foster home with family that treats him kindly.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Dickson was correct in suing for bridge of contract.

Explanation:

In every contract, there is usually a written agreement which is usually endorsed by the two parties. This signed agreement is binding on both parties and specified on the milestones to achieved and how the work would be carried out.

For Moran to fire Dickson without recourse to seek his view despite the fact that he has fulfilled 40% of the work is a bridge of contract. Moran should have consulted Dickson when the level of work is less than 10$% and point out the flaws in the condtruction.

He should also has warned Dickson about getting fired for not following specification rather than keeping quiet and watching till the work has reached a substantially level before firing him with no warning whatsoever.
