Answer:
b. early 1900s.
Explanation:
The act of debating about any legislation involves filibusters who try to prevent or even delay any proposed law from being adopted or finalization of any decision. This procedure resulted in the adoption of the cloture rule, which pertains to the permission of members of the legislation to have a say in the debate.
This cloture rule was adopted on March 8, 1917, bringing upon the change that allows a two-thirds majority for a debate to be concluded. This 65th session of the Congress also allowed the members to have the time to speak for another one hour before the voting for a final decision is taken.
Thus, the correct answer is option b, the early 1900s.

Russia,.....
There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
He could preach the Bible like a preacher
Full of ecstasy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire
Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
Ra ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on
He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Czar
But the kazachok he danced really wunderbar
In all affairs of state he was the man to please...
How could this document help you argue for abolishing the Electoral College?
Answer:
The system is complex.
Shows how unfair the system is.
Explanation:
American voters elect the President and Vice President of the United States indirectly, through an arrangement known as the electoral college system. The electoral college system comprises a complex mosaic of constitutional provisions, state and federal laws, and political party rules and practices.
Although the electoral college system has delivered uncontested results in 46 out of 50 presidential elections since it assumed its present constitutional form in 1804, it has been the subject of persistent criticism and frequent proposals for reform. Reform advocates cite several problems with the current system, including a close or multi-candidate election can result in no electoral college majority, leading to a contingent election in Congress; the current system can result in the election of a President and Vice President who received a majority of electoral votes, but fewer popular votes, than their opponents; the formula for assignment of electoral votes is claimed to provide an unfair advantage for less populous states and does not account for population changes between censuses; and the winner-take-all system used by most states does not recognize the proportional strength of the losing major party, minor party, and independent candidates. On the other hand, defenders assert that the electoral college system is an integral and vital component of federalism, that it has a 92% record of non-controversial results, and that it promotes an ideologically and geographically broad two-party system. They maintain that repair of the electoral college system, rather than abolition, would eliminate any perceived defects while retaining its overall strengths.
The document that helps us to argue for abolishing the Electoral College is that the system is complex and shows how unfair the system is.
What is Electoral College?An electoral college is a set of electors who are selected to elect a candidate to particular offices. Often these represent different organizations, political parties or entities, with each organization, political party or entity represented by a particular number of electors or with votes weighted in a particular way.
Early Germanic law stated that the German king led only with the support of his nobles. Thus, Pelagius needed to be elected by his Visigothic nobles before becoming king of Asturias, and so did Pepin the Short by Frankish nobles in order to become the first Carolingian king.
While most other Germanic nations had developed a strictly hereditary system by the end of the first millennium, the Holy Roman Empire did not, and the King of the Romans, who would become, by papal coronation, Holy Roman Emperor or at least Emperor-elect, was elected by the college of prince-electors from the late Middle Ages until 1806.

Big red carnival in town. Tony arrives at 8pm parks in the lot and is robbed at gunpoint and beaten. There are officers on the carnival grounds but not in the parking lot. Tony sues claiming that brighter lighting and more police in the lot would have prevented the robbery. There have never been any violent crime-robbery beating or otherwise at any carnival. The carnival claims it had no duty to protect Tony. Who is likely to win and why
Answer:
The carnival is most likely to win because it does not have the obligation of protecting a customer from something that they did not do and could not foresee.
Explanation:
As the robbery is an event that has not occurred before at the carnival, the carnival's owner could not foresee it, nor has the owner knowledge of this robbery taking place. So the business does not have the duty of protecting their clients from external things, in other words, from third parties, mostly when they could not predict it. For these reasons, the carnival has a higher probability of winning the case.

What is Texas oil industry and social change ?
The Texas oil boom, sometimes called the gusher age, was a period of dramatic change and economic growth in the U.S. state of Texas during the early 20th century that began with the discovery of a large petroleum reserve near Beaumont, Texas. The find was unprecedented in its size (worldwide) and ushered in an age of rapid regional development and industrialization that has few parallels in U.S. history. Texas quickly became one of the leading oil-producing states in the U.S., along with Oklahoma and California; soon the nation overtook the Russian Empire as the top producer of petroleum. By 1940 Texas had come to dominate U.S. production. Some historians even define the beginning of the world's Oil Age as the beginning of this era in Texas.[1]
The major petroleum strikes that began the rapid growth in petroleum exploration and speculation occurred in Southeast Texas, but soon reserves were found across Texas and wells were constructed in North Texas, East Texas, and the Permian Basin in West Texas. Although limited reserves of oil had been struck during the 19th century, the strike at Spindletop near Beaumont in 1901 gained national attention, spurring exploration and development that continued through the 1920s and beyond. Spindletop and the Joiner strike in East Texas, at the outset of the Great Depression, were the key strikes that launched this era of change in the state.
This period had a transformative effect on Texas. At the turn of the century, the state was predominantly rural with no large cities.[2] By the end of World War II, the state was heavily industrialized, and the populations of Texas cities had broken into the top 20 nationally.[3] The city of Houston was among the greatest beneficiaries of the boom, and the Houston area became home to the largest concentration of refineries and petrochemical plants in the world.[4] The city grew from a small commercial center in 1900 to one of the largest cities in the United States during the decades following the era. This period, however, changed all of Texas' commercial centers (and developed the Beaumont/Port Arthur area, where the boom began).
H. Roy Cullen, H. L. Hunt, Sid W. Richardson, and Clint Murchison were the four most influential businessmen during this era. These men became among the wealthiest and most politically powerful in the state and the nation.

In the first condition, the subject is asked to recall as many of the words from the list as possible. In the second condition, the subject is asked to recall as many words from the list as possible and is furnished with a couple of words from the list. How does recall in the first case compare to recall in the second case?
A) in the first condition more words are recalled
B) the number of words recalled will be the same in both cases
C) in the second condition more words are recalled
D) the order of the words is better remembered in the first case, but the same number of words are recalled in both conditions
Answer:
C) in the second condition more words are recalled
Explanation:
In the second coding, the research participants' memory is helped, when some words from the list are cited. This can cause the participants to remember a greater amount of words than the amount that was remembered in the first condition. This is because in the first condition the participants had no help to quote the memorized words, having to rely on only the own memory.
