life of Americans during the reconstruction period Reconstruction era is the period that followed the American Civil war, and it mainly focused on reintegrating the southern states from the confederacy along with the freed slaves into the united states. The era witnessed various changes in the political life of America since it contributed to constitutional amendments that altered the federal system and the definition of American citizenship. This essay offers a discussion on the life of Americans during the reconstruction period and the legislations used to promote the social and political rights for the former slaves. The reconstruction period granted African Americans the freedom to participate in the activities of the government. For instance, the black Americans in the south acquired the liberty of allying with the whites to bring the Republican party to power. The life of the Black Americans during the era, therefore, entailed freedom of participation in the political power of America. Moreover, they enjoyed equal rights to slavery together with the right to vote. The situation of the African Americans improved after emancipation because they were…

development of intelligent wheeled walkers Introduction Out-of-home mobility for older people remains to be very necessary for accessing commodities, participating in issues such as cultural, social and physical activities and also ensuring that the elder makes use of neighborhood activities. Mobility also has been established to significantly promote healthy aging among the old as it generally relates to the primary human needs of physical involvement. In order to assess the issues related to the essence of mobility, it is generally important to use two main tests, that is, assessing with a standardized performance test or assessment with a self-report of a particular perceived difficulty in carrying out the specific mobility task. Mobility process decline with an increase in age and under such circumstances, most demanding and complex tasks are generally affected. On a number of occasions, the majority of the old people cope with the paper declining functional capacity through the making of necessary changes in their own respective and unique ways. One of the essential tools which are used to increase mobility on a day to day basis by…
Solar Power and Wind Power Solar power is a renewable source of electricity that is derived from the sun. It is harnessing energy from the sun and making it usable. One way of doing this is using solar panels which are made up of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight into electricity. Photovoltaic cells are made up of semiconductor materials and when the sunlight hits them, the electrons in their atoms become loose. The loose electrons start flowing through the cells and the movement generates electricity. Solar panels can be used in large scale and small scale. Many homes that use solar energy have solar panel fixed on the rooftops so that they can get maximum sunlight. Solar panels can be used in large-scale production which is done by using many solar panels. Another way of using the sun energy to generate electricity is using solar thermal power plants in large scale production. Solar thermal power plants use concave mirrors which turn energy from the sun to a concentrated heat source. The concentrated heat is used to heat water and the…
Social Change and Advocacy Social change is defined as a transformation of the behavior of a community. Social change is characterized by changes in cultural symbols, rules, and mechanisms of society. Social change can be brought by the interaction of a particular community with another community where one community starts emulating the behaviors of another population hence bringing about social change. Advancement in technology and industrial revolution can also result in social change (Faleye, 2013:13). Social change can also evolve from economic and political movements. Social change can bring positive and negative impacts on society. Only social change with a positive influence on the nation should be accepted. Usually, social change destroys something old and replaces it with a new one. It is not necessarily that the new thing being introduced is better than the old one which was in existence, whenever a fundamental behavior in a community is destroyed by social change and not adequately replaced then the space left behind results in malpractices in the society such as drug trafficking and money laundering. Social change is simply…
The Tragic Hero The poetics essay explains Aristotle’s greatest tragedy that happened to be Oedipus, the king who fitted almost entirely to the standards of a hero as set by Aristotle. According to Aristotle, a perfect hero must be decent, able to err, given excessive punishment, hold a high position and come to a later recognition of truth enabling them to live like the other human beings. Oedipus is a tragic hero. Just like Oedipus, a tragic hero should be decent. Oedipus fits the acceptable moral standards of society. It is evident that the king does not make any decisions without getting advice from the oracle. Oedipus is not engaged in dirty acts that would otherwise tarnish his good name. After the death of his father, Oedipus is afraid of committing incest with his mother until he learns that indeed that was not her mother. The fear of committing incest shows how Oedipus was respectful of moral standards. Furthermore, Oedipus possessed a tragic flaw and was able to err like a tragic hero. According to Aristotle, a tragic hero…

Systems Development Life Cycle SDLC systems The Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a system of constructing and delivering software applications from the inception stage to completion. The system has a number of advantages. First, it has a systematic approach which allows the developer to thoroughly plan for risks, contingencies, resources, and finances. This stems from the fact that the system has phases with very clear boundaries between one phase and the next one. This allows the developer to make a more structured plan which contains specific deadlines and time frames for delivery. Second, the system is well tested and established and it has been proven to work. The system has been around since 2001 and if used appropriately it provides very good results. SDLC, however, has some disadvantages. First, it is a structured method which means that it can be very expensive in terms of man-hours and finances required to build it. Projects that run on SDLC are very costly to run and can result in huge financial strains if the developers do not plan well in advance. This…
