Answer: self interest
Explanation:
Mr. Lincoln once remarked to a fellow-passenger that all men were triggered by selfishness in doing good. The fellow-passenger was antagonizing this position when they passed over a corduroy bridge which spanned a slough. As they were crossing this bridge, they saw an old sow on the bank which was making a terrible noise because her pigs got into the slough and could drown.
As the old coach was climbing the hill, Mr. Lincoln said “Driver, can’t you stop just a moment?” Mr. Lincoln then jumped out, ran back and then lifted the little pigs out of the mud they were in and placed them on the bank. His companion remarked when he returned that "where does selfishness come in what he just did?
Mr Lincoln said that "he whould have had no peace of mind if he had left that the suffering old sow to be worried about her pigs and helping her was because he wanted peace of mind which was selfishness.
Plz help me because this is due today. Why did Fredrick Douglass say”Lincoln was transformed from slave catcher to friend?”
Answer: Douglass made a trip to Washington to meet Lincoln. He was frustrated with the war effort. He was specifically frustrated by the fact that the Lincoln administration was paying black soldiers half of what white soldiers were being paid, not being promoted for valiant service, and so he goes to D.C. He sends up his card - within two minutes he's called into Lincoln's office, which reflects the fact that he's already a household name. And so Douglass arrives in Lincoln's office, and they actually had a very good meeting, even though Douglass and Lincoln never agreed politically. The best way to summarize Frederick Douglass is that he devoted his career to ending slavery everywhere and achieving racial equality. He was a true radical, racial equality for everyone - men and women, blacks, whites, regardless of character, sex, skin color.The main reason that they bonded is because they both recognized in each other great self-made men. Douglass rose up from a slave to become one of the most famous black men in the world. Lincoln rises up from nothing. He was known as poor white trash. He's born in a log cabin. It was actually a three-sided hut, you know, it was very crude. Lincoln has less than a year of formal schooling and rises up to become president. And the main reason they were able to rise up is because of their love of language, their capacity to learn how to use words as weapons. And long before they ever met, they read, virtually memorized the same six books or authors, and that was central to their self-making.

What does Joseph Touma mean when he says "We're looking for a trickle-up effect"? Do you think Bridge the Divide will be successful in achieving this goal? Why or why not?
Joseph Touma is one of the founders of the organization Bridge the Divide. This organization attempts to foster discussions between young Republicans and young Democrats. The founders believe that the political environment of the United States is too divided, and that by fostering these discussions, they might be able to help diminish such divisions. He argues that they want a "trickle-up effect," which means that they hope that such a change will first happen among citizens and individuals, and that the movement will eventually reach politicians at higher levels.
I believe that Bridge the Divide will be successful in achieving this goal. I think that most politicians act in a way that they believe is desired by their constituents. If politicians encourage division between political parties, it is often because citizens also have this polarized view. If citizens demand more moderation and dialogue, then politicians would most likely act in this way in order to gain more votes.

¿Qué crees que hubiese sucedido si los primeros homínidos durante el paleolítico no hubiesen contado con fuentes hídricas cercanas? Explica. porfa respondan, cualquier aporte sirve :) lo necesito para hoy.
La respuesta correcta a esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.
Lo que hubiese sucedido si los primeros homínidos durante el paleolítico no hubiesen contado con fuentes hídricas cercanas, es que pronto hubiera escaseado la comida y esto hubiera representado el fin de esos primeros homínidos.
De hecho, eso fue lo que en realidad sucedió después. Los historiadores piensan que hace aproximadamente 1.7 millones de años, estos homínidos se vieron afectados por los efectos del cambio climático en aquel entonces. La región donde habitaban, cerca de Argelia en África, comenzó a transformase en una zona árida. Escaseaba la comida y esos grupos tuvieron que emigrar hacia otros territorios para sobrevivir.
