What is the difference between a Supreme Court opinion and a Supreme Court dissent

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A dissenting opinion (or dissent) is an opinion in a legal case in certain legal systems written by one or more judges expressing disagreement with the majority opinion of the court which gives rise to its judgment. When not necessarily referring to a legal decision, this can also be referred to as a minority report.

Daniel could see all of Maple Street from his porch, and he marveled at the change. As a boy, he could see only three homes and the general store; now there were six shiny storefronts in his view. Where his pop had once hitched their wagon, his own automobile was parked. And his was not the only Model T in town. Those Detroit factories were filling the streets.

In fact, he was starting to believe Henry Ford’s predictions as he watched his neighbors pack up their automobiles for their Sunday drives. They could probably reach Springfield by noon if they were so inclined, or perhaps they were heading to the country for a picnic. It did not seem to matter where people were going, as long as they were going fast.

(2) When shelter rescuers found him, he was malnourished, mangy, and host to a swarm of fleas. (3) But his eyes shone with a pure puppy joy when they bathed him, fed him, and scratched his furry belly. Before long, he was ready to go to a loving home. (4) This is Marvin today.

Excerpt from Latitude and Longitude
Kathy Hufford
1 The earth is effectively a sphere, so how do we describe where a
point is on its surface? The most common way to locate points on
the surface of the Earth is by standard, geographic coordinates
called Latitude and longitude. These coordinates values are
measured in degrees, and represent angular distances calculated
from the center of the Earth
We can imagine the Earth as a sphere, with an axis around which it
spins. The ends of the axis are the North and South Poles. The
Equator is a line around the earth, an equal distance from both
Mórcator Projection
poles. The Equator is also the Latitude line given the value of 0
degrees. This means it is the starting point for measuring latitude. Latitude values indicate the angular distances between the
Equator and points north or south of it on the surface of the Earth
Here is a quote from Kepler: 'He provided himself with a cross-staff for determining the angular distance between stars or
other objects, and, finding the divisions of the scale inaccurate, constructed a table of corrections, an improvement that seems to
have been a decided innovation, the previous practice having been to use the best available instrument and ignore its errors."
What is the definition of angular distances that is used for calculating geographical coordinates? Consider sections 1, 2, and Kepler'e
quote
A)
8)
It is the angular distances that are the starting point for measuring
Latitude
It is the longitude values are indicating the angular distance between the
Prime Meridian and points east or west of it on the surface of the Earth
it is the distance from the Earth when divided equally into 360 degrees of
longitude, and there are 180 degrees of longitude to the east of the Prime
Meridian
It is the angular separation between two objects as perceived by an
observer as the observer perceives the distance made at the eye by lines

Summarize the section "How Smart is Smart"

Answer:

When Andrea Anderson was saved by Villa, her neighbors' dog, after she got stuck in a snowdrift, many were impressed because Villa not only understood that Andrea needed help but also was able to complete the tasks required to do so. Villa´s bravery and intelligence got her the 1983 Ken-L Ration Dog Hero of the year.  

Although until the 1960s scientists who specialized in animal behavior thought that animals could only act by instinct, not because of their intelligence, by the time Hinshaw's book was written the mental abilities of animals were considered better than previously believed.
