Here is your goal for this assignment:

Write a report summarizing the Department of Homeland Security

Because the Department of Homeland Security is such a new organization, its limits and powers have yet to be tested and fully defined. The scope of its power and influence can only be determined over time. All American citizens must ask themselves if this organization formed for their security has the potential to threaten their liberties. Each citizen has a responsibility to ensure that the government and its agencies operate within the limits of the Constitution, just as our forefathers intended. While one of the government's main roles is to protect its citizens, at the same time, the citizens of the United States must remain the guardians of their own freedoms.

Using at least three sources (magazines, the Internet, or other resources), research the Department of Homeland Security and its relationship with the Constitution. Use your information to write a 750-word report.

For your three main points:

Discuss the need for the Department of Homeland Security.
Discuss the importance of protecting individuals' Constitutional freedoms.
Discuss how the Department of Homeland Security can best do its job of protecting the American people without infringing the rights of the people. Where or how do we "draw the line" between security and rights?
Make sure to write your paper in the format your teacher requires (MLA, Chicago Manual of Style, APA, etc.), including the way you cite your sources. Before you submit your paper for grading, check for proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling.

The boat in the photo is moving along at a constant 20 miles per hour. Is the boat accelerating?




No because it is not speeding up


Yes because it is changing direction


No because it is not slowing down


Yes because the velocity is staying constant.

Answers

The correct answer is A. No because it is not speeding up.

Explanation

Acceleration is a verb that refers to the action of increasing speed. Therefore, if the boat in the photo is moving at a constant speed of twenty miles per hour, this means that it will always move at the same speed, so it will not increase or decrease its speed. So the ship is not accelerating, it is just going at the same speed. According to the above, the correct answer is A. No because it is not speeding up.

What was one accomplishment of ancient Athenians

Answers

Answer:

The Athenians invented democracy, a new type of government where every citizen could vote on important issues, such as whether or not to declare war.

Why is the right to vote important?

Answers

It is important because without it citizens would not be able to choose the people who will run their government. It is also a major responsibility. Those that do not vote are failing to carry out a civic responsibility. They are also handing over their political power to views they may oppose.
