The United States declared war on Germany for many reasons. One of them was the sinking on neutral ships and the lusitania which killed about 148 Americans. This was not the immediate cause, another is propaganda which persuaded public opinion.


Why did the US Declare War?
Why did the US Declare War? On June 12, 1812, the United States declared war on Great as a result of numerous disputes between the two countries. The British continuously engaged in impressment and forced US citizens to serve in the Royal Navy. The British also attacked the USS Chesapeake and this nearly caused a war two year earlier.


War of 1812
War of 1812. The War of 1812 (1812â1815) was a conflict fought between the United States and the United Kingdom and their respective allies. Historians in Britain often see it as a minor theater of the Napoleonic Wars; however, in the United States and Canada, it is seen as a war in its own right.


War of 1812
This was the first time that the United States had declared war on another nation, and the Congressional vote was the closest vote to formally declare war in American history. The Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 1991, while not a formal declaration of war, was a closer vote.

The United States later declared war on German ally Austria-Hungary on December 7, 1917. Germanyâs resumption of submarine attacks on passenger and merchant ships in 1917 became the primary motivation behind Wilsonâs decision to lead the United States into World War I.

Central Lines: Why Is a Central Line Necessary?
More in Surgery. A central line is a type of catheter that is placed in a large vein that allows multiple IV fluids to be given and blood to be drawn. When compared to a typical IV line, a central line is larger, can stay in place longer, can deliver a greater volume of fluids and allows blood to be drawn easily.

Since patients with urinary catheters have a much higher chance of getting a urinary tract infection than those who do not have a catheter, the question must be posed: why is there no informed consent for urinary catheters?


What is a Foley Catheter?
Some patients experience urinary retention after surgery, which may make a catheter necessary even if the patient did not need one during the procedure. Patients may also experience urinary retention after the removal of a Foley catheter.


Why Do I Need to Use CoudÃ© Catheters?
A few of the most common factors that contribute to this need: 1  Enlarged prostate (or benign prostatic hyperplasia, almost known as BPH) 2  Prior prostate surgery. 3  False passages in the urethra or a stoma. 4  Radiation in the pelvic area to treat cancer. 5  Those with urinary stricture disease or urethral trauma.


Why Would I Need A Central Line?
These catheters are used most commonly for therapy for leukemia and for bone marrow or stem cell transplants. No needles need to be put into the patient at all to use these catheters. The IVâs are connected directly to the end of the catheter where the cap is. All of the same kinds of IV's that can be given in a port can also be given in one of these catheters. Lab specimens may also be drawn from these lines.


Foley Catheter Placement And Care
Use soap and water. Clean your anal opening and catheter area after every bowel movement. Secure the catheter tube so you do not pull or move the catheter. This helps prevent pain and bladder spasms. Healthcare providers will show you how to use medical tape or a strap to secure the catheter tube to your body. Keep a closed drainage system.


Cardiac Catheterization
When a catheter is used to widen a narrowed heart valve opening, the procedure is called valvuloplasty. The doctor will remove the catheters and the sheath.

The Malecot four-wing catheter and the dePezzer mushroom catheter are inserted by the urologist using a stylet. The stylet is removed after the catheter has been inserted. Because they are very difficult to sterilize, catheters should be considered disposable and discarded after they have been removed. Figure 3-1. Urinary catheters. a. Intermittent Catheter. An intermittent catheter is used to drain the bladder for short periods (5-10 minutes). It may be inserted by the patient. b. Retention/Indwelling Catheter. This type of catheter is placed into the bladder and secured there for a period of time. It is used following surgery, bladder injury, or in bladder infections. It may also be used for an incontinent or nonresponsive patient. (1) It provides continuous temporary or permanent drainage of urine.

An indwelling, or Foley catheter is a thin, flexible drainage tube that drains your urine when you are unable to empty. your bladder independently. The catheter is attached to a drainage bag which collects the urine. This is considered a. âclosed system,â which means that there are no openings from your urinary bladder to the drainage bag.


Overview
Depending on the type of catheter you have and why it's being used, the catheter may be removed after a few minutes, hours or days, or it may be needed for the long term. Types of urinary catheter There are two main types of urinary catheter: 1  intermittent catheters â these are temporarily inserted into the bladder and removed once the bladder is empty. 2  indwelling catheters â these remain in place for many days or weeks, and are held in position by an inflated balloon in the bladder.

Id, ego, and super-ego are the three parts of the psychic apparatus defined in Sigmund Freud's structural model of the psyche. The three parts are the theoretical constructs in terms of whose activity and interaction our mental life is described.


What Are the Id, Ego, and Superego?
The id is the only component of personality that is present from birth. This aspect of personality is entirely unconscious and includes the instinctive and primitive behaviors. According to Freud, the id is the source of all psychic energy, making it the primary component of personality.


DEFINITION OF THE ID , EGO AND SUPER EGO
There is nothing in the id that could be compared with negation...nothing in the id which corresponds to the idea of time. Developmentally, the id precedes the ego; i.e., the psychic apparatus begins, at birth, as an undifferentiated id, part of which then develops into a structured ego. Thus, the id:


Id, ego and super-ego
The id, ego and super-ego are three distinct, yet interacting agents in the psychic apparatus defined in Sigmund Freud's structural model of the psyche. The three parts are the theoretical constructs in terms of whose activity and interaction our mental life is described.


Id, ego and super-ego
However, his daughter Anna Freud clarified and identified the concepts of undoing, suppression, dissociation, idealization, identification, introjection, inversion, somatisation, splitting, and substitution.  1 The ego is not sharply separated from the id; its lower portion merges into it....


DEFINITION OF THE ID , EGO AND SUPER EGO
Id, ego, and super-ego are the three parts of the psychic apparatus defined in Sigmund Freud's structural model of the psyche; they are the three theoretical constructs in terms of whose activity and interaction our mental life is described.


DEFINITION OF THE ID , EGO AND SUPER EGO
Id is the only component of personality that is present from birth. It is the source of our bodily needs, wants, desires, and impulses, particularly our sexual and aggressive drives. The id contains the libido, which is the primary source of instinctual force that is unresponsive to the demands of reality.

Go to the dealer with CASH if you can. Dealers are much more likely to go down in price if you have cash. 3. Before you even test drive the car, set a price-point in your head of how high you want to go. Tell yourself, I will not go over X amount of dollars. 4. Don't seem too interested in the car.

Used Car Advice for Lowering the Sticker Price
Used Car Advice for Lowering the Sticker Price Posted on Autos.com Editor. in Car Buying. on October 7, 2013. Negotiating is a great tool for lowering the sticker price of a used car and advice about the best strategy for this starts with understanding what factors influence the carâs price in the first place. Sticker price is the starting point in any used car negotiation. It is what the dealer wants to sell the vehicle for, however; it is often possible to save hundreds, maybe even thousands off the sticker price by arming yourself with research, being willing to haggle and ultimately being willing to walk away.


Buying a New Car
If youâre buying a car based on the invoice price (for example, âat invoice,â â$100 below invoice,â âtwo percent above invoiceâ) and if freight is already included, make sure freight isnât added again to the sales contract.


Buying a New Car
A new car is second only to a home as the most expensive purchase many consumers make. According to the National Automobile Dealers Association, the average price of a new car sold in the United States is about $30,000. Thatâs why itâs important to know how to make a smart deal.

Step 1. Get the Best New Car Price
1. TrueCar is one of the few car price quote services I recommend. You've probably heard of them or seen their commercials. They actually do provide good upfront prices most of the time; so much so that dealers started a backlash against the service, pressuring state legislatures to outlaw it.

If you purchase a vehicle at invoice prices - with a $3000 difference - the dealer makes $3000 on the vehicle. Many dealers will easily settle for a $1500 to $2500 profit. If they do, and you purchase the vehicle correctly, you will be well below dealer invoice!


Step 1. Get the Best New Car Price
Most car shoppers will usually stop after contacting only 3 or 4 dealers - that's not going to cut it. Getting price quotes from at least 7 dealers is what I've found to be the magic number. Note: in order to actually collect 7 different prices, you're going to have to contact way more than 7 dealers.

Viacom, Lionsgate, MGM to launch Epix, a new channel
But that doesn't seem to bother Hollywood powers Viacom via (which owns Paramount), Lionsgate lgf and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. They're defying all odds to launch a bold service, called Epix, that hopes to break into the premium TV business long dominated by HBO, Showtime and Starz.


-
Launched in October 2009, Epix is the youngest of the major pay cable channels in the United States. As of December 2011, Epix's programming reaches 9.5 million pay television subscribers in the United States, therefore giving the channel the lowest subscriber tally among the major U.S. pay cable channels.


Epix signs agreement with Time Warner Cable
As it grows from being just a niche channel to being available in roughly 40 percent of US homes, it is more and more a rival to HBO, Showtime and Starz. The service on TWC kicks off March 18. Epix offers subscribers a host of fresh movies and specials, usually 10 months after their box office release.

First Fetal Movement: Quickening
Some moms can feel their babies move as early as 13-16 weeks from the start of their last period. These first fetal movements are called quickening and are often described as flutters. It may be difficult to determine whether this feeling is gas or your babyâs movements, but soon you will begin to notice a pattern.

I have read it can be as late as 26 weeks along before some moms, especially first time moms, feel movement. I think I felt the baby move for the first time around 24 weeks. I knew for sure that the movement was the baby by 28 weeks. I think I felt the baby move for the first time around 24 weeks.


Feeling Your Baby Move
Then over the next couple of weeks, the faint flutter turns into stronger movements. At 20 weeks you may wonder if that funny feeling is the baby moving; by about 25 weeks you?ll have no doubt that there's a living being inside you. By 30 weeks you'll become convinced that your baby has learned how to do somersaults. If you look down at your belly later in your pregnancy, you'll actually see your baby moving. Your baby has been on the move since you were 6 weeks pregnant, but you didn't feel it because the baby was so small.

But by now, 26 weeks, the movement is very obvious, she's a very active strong girl :)! I think I read on some websites that if its ur first pregnancy it can be anywhere from 18-22 weeks that you feel movement for the first time.....


Feeling Your Baby Move
Many women can't quite believe they're pregnant until the baby moves, even if they've heard a heartbeat or seen the baby on ultrasound. Your baby's movement is the reward for everything you've gone through so far. Ordinarily women start to feel their babies move at about 20 weeks, although this varies. You may feel it as early as 16 weeks or as late as 23 weeks. If you've had a baby before, you're likely to notice the movement earlier because it's already a familiar sensation that you've experienced in a previous pregnancy.


Feeling Your Baby Move in Your Second Pregnancy
1 Your baby's position can alter how you experience the movement. If your baby is tucked into one area and kicking into an open space of amniotic fluid, you're not likely to feel that movement as well.  You weigh more than you did in your first pregnancy.


Feeling Your Baby Move in Your Second Pregnancy
You might be feeling the baby about the same time as your last baby or even slightly later if any of the following are true: 1  You have an anterior placenta. 2  Your baby's position can alter how you experience the movement.  You weigh more than you did in your first pregnancy.


Feeling Your Baby Move in Your Second Pregnancy
Feeling your baby move for the first time in each pregnancy is called quickening. While a first time mother might not feel her baby move until after 18-22 weeks, as an experienced mother, you may notice that you feel your baby much sooner. You might notice quickening in a second pregnancy only slightly sooner, for example around 16-18 weeks. Or you may notice it a lot sooner, as in late first trimester. Your baby is moving from early pregnancy on. Though typically the baby is so small that it is difficult to feel.


First Fetal Movement: Quickening
First-time moms may not feel these movements as early as second-time moms. Some moms, especially those in their first pregnancy, may not feel movement until 18-20 weeks. Remember that each woman and every pregnancy is different, so you may not feel movement as early as another woman. There is a broad range of when the first detection of movement can be felt, ranging from 13-25 weeks.

Most women will feel a little flutter of movement when they are 15 weeks. Now the baby won't kick hard enough for everyone else to feel it until you are around 20 weeks. I am on my 4th pregnancy and it still amazes me how wonderful a feeling it was just to feel the fluttering. I am 24 weeks and my baby kicks me at least 10 times a day. It's different for everyone, most first time moms don't feel movement until around 20 weeks. If they do feel movement before that they're not sure what it is.

What is considered normal eye pressure?
While the average eye pressure is approximately 15, the range of normal eye pressure is much larger. About 90 percent of people will fall between a pressure of 10 and 21. Even so, this does not mean that if you have a pressure of 22 or higher it is abnormal. Every individual and every eye is different.


Eye health guide
Pressure often builds up over time, so symptoms may not be noticed until it has done lasting damage to a person's eyesight. Treatment for ocular hypertension. A common treatment for high pressure in the eye is special drops to reduce intraocular pressure.


Eye health guide
Eye pressure is also called intraocular pressure (IOP) and is measured with a special tonometry device. Pressure is recorded in millimetres of mercury (mmHg). Normal eye pressure ranges from 10 to 21 mmHg. Ocular hypertension is defined as an eye pressure of greater than 21 mmHg on two consecutive occasions without glaucoma changes being present. The optometrist or ophthalmologist will verify the eye pressure findings with a procedure called pachymetry to measure the corneal thickness with an ultrasound probe.


Normal Intraocular Pressure
Normal Intraocular Pressure in Human Existing consensus among ophthalmologists and eye doctors define normal intraocular pressure as that in between 10 mmHg and 20 mmHg. The average worth of intraocular pressure is 15.5 mmHg with changes of about 2.75 mmHg.

Watch this video that explains what glaucoma is and who is at risk for the disease. (Video: National Eye Institute) A: Normal pressure in the eye is between 12 and 21mm Hg. Some patients are fortunate in that their optic nerves can tolerate pressures outside this range. If there are no other signs of glaucoma (visual field defect or optic nerve changes), then high pressures can be followed and simply observed.


Glaucoma and Eye Pressure: Q&A
A: Glaucoma is an eye condition whereby the optic nerve fibers die from a lack of blood supply (nutrition). This used to be associated only with high eye pressure. We now know that it is the blood flow to the optic nerve, which connects the back of the eye to the brain, that


Glaucoma and Eye Pressure: Q&A
Watch this video that explains what glaucoma is and who is at risk for the disease. A: Normal pressure in the eye is between 12 and 21mm Hg. Some patients are fortunate in that their optic nerves can tolerate pressures outside this range. If there are no other signs of glaucoma (visual field defect or optic nerve changes), then high pressures can be followed and simply observed.


Normal Intraocular Pressure
The diurnal variation for normal eyes is between 3 and 6 mmHg and the variation may increase in glaucomatous eyes. During the night, intraocular pressure might not reduce in spite of the slower production of liquid humour.


Glaucoma and Eye Pressure: Q&A
The main goal is to keep the eye pressure under control with the minimal amount of medication. Some beta blocker type glaucoma medication can cause impotence and/or reduce one's libido. If you are concerned about this potential side effect, consult with your eye doctor about alternative medications.


Normal Intraocular Pressure
Intraocular pressure (IOP) is the fluid pressure inside the eye. Tonometry is the approach eye care specialists use to determine this. IOP is an important aspect in the examination of patients at risk from glaucoma. Most tonometers are adjusted to measure pressure in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).

Fluid flow mean velocity and pipe diameter for known flow rate
The regime of flow when velocity is lower than critical is called laminar flow (or viscous or streamline flow). At laminar regime of flow the velocity is highest on the pipe axis, and on the wall the velocity is equal to zero. When the velocity is greater than critical, the regime of flow is turbulent.


Fluid flow mean velocity and pipe diameter for known flow rate
In the turbulent regime of flow, there is always a thin layer of fluid at pipe wall which is moving in laminar flow. That layer is known as the boundary layer or laminar sub-layer. To determine flow regime use Reynolds number calculator.

Fold
Fold, in geology, undulation or waves in the stratified rocks of the Earthâs crust. Stratified rocks were originally formed from sediments that were deposited in flat, horizontal sheets, but in a number of places the strata are no longer horizontal but have been warped.


Fold
Although in the simpler types of folds the axis is horizontal or gently inclined, it may be steeply inclined or even vertical. The angle of inclination of the axis, as measured from the horizontal, is called the plunge. The portions of the fold between adjacent axes form the flanks, limbs, or slopes of a fold.


Ben Folds Five
Ben Folds Five are an American alternative rock trio formed in 1993 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The group's members are Ben Folds (lead vocals, piano, keyboards, melodica, principal songwriting), Robert Sledge (bass, contrabass, synthesizer, backing vocals), and Darren Jessee (drums, percussion, backing vocals, songwriter).


The Mind Bending Types of Geological Folds

The term fold is used in geology when one or a stack of originally flat and planar surfaces, such as sedimentary strata, are bent or curved as a result of permanent deformation. Synsedimentary folds are those due to slumping of sedimentary material before it is lithified.


Fold (geology)
Folds are commonly formed by shortening of existing layers, but may also be formed as a result of displacement on a non-planar fault (fault bend fold), at the tip of a propagating fault (fault propagation fold), by differential compaction or due to the effects of a high-level igneous intrusion e.g. above a laccolith.


Fold (geology)
Finally, folds can have, but donât necessarily have a fold axis. A fold axis, âis the closest approximation to a straight line that when moved parallel to itself, generates the form of the fold.â (Davis and Reynolds, 1996 after Donath and Parker, 1964; Ramsay 1967).


Fold
An anticline is a fold that is convex upward, and a syncline is a fold that is concave upward. An anticlinorium is a large anticline on which minor folds are superimposed, and a synclinorium is a large syncline on which minor folds are superimposed. A symmetrical fold is one in which the axial plane is vertical.


Fold (geology)
Fold (geology) The term fold is used in geology when one or a stack of originally flat, level surfaces, such as sedimentary strata, are bent or curved as a result of pressure and high temperature. The basic cause is likely to be some aspect of plate tectonics.


Ben Folds Five
Ben Folds Five was formed in 1993 in Chapel Hill by Ben Folds. Folds once described their music as punk rock for sissies, a reaction to the angst prevalent in '90s rock. Their first radio single was Underground from their self-titled debut album, released in 1995 on Caroline Records.

Bumble Bees (Bombus species; Family Apidae, Subfamily Apinae) These large (10 to 23 mm), hairy bees are the only truly social bees native to the United States. Overwintering queens form new colonies in the spring and nest in the ground. Bumble bees are used commercially to pollinate crops such as tomato.


-
Digger bees are sometimes classified in the family Anthophoridae along with the carpenter bees. These hairy bees range from 5 to 25 mm in length and, like other members of this family, the females use scopae (stiff hairs) to carry pollen. Most species nest in the ground or in vertical banks, often in sandy soil. Some species waterproof their brood cells with secreted waxy or oily material.


-
Female bees have special pollen-carrying hairs (scopa) usually on. the legs, or in the case of leafcutters, under the abdomen. Honey. bees and bumble bees carry pollen packed tightly into a ball on. pollen baskets (corbiculae), concave areas on their hind legs.


-
Bumble bees can be. identified to species by the pattern of coloration (black, yellow, or rusty/buff) on their. thorax and abdomen. However, the coloration may vary for females (including workers. and queens) and males (including drones) of the same species, and there can be some.


Alcohol, Drugs and Bipolar Disorder: A Bad Combination
But when we're pleasure seeking or perhaps just trying to get rid of uncomfortable feelings, the thought processes leading to our choices aren't necessarily rational or balanced. In fact, for those with bipolar disorder who struggle with mood instability, the use of drugs and alcohol only adds to the ups and downs. It absolutely doesn't smooth them out. And then there's the seductive and dangerous element of disinhibition, particularly in relation to alcohol. Alcohol lowers inhibitions.

Antidepressants and alcohol: What's the concern?
If you mix antidepressants and alcohol: 1  You may feel more depressed or anxious. 2  Side effects may be worse if you also take another medication. 3  You may be at risk of a dangerous reaction if you take MAOIs. 4  Your thinking and alertness may be impaired. 5  You may become sedated or feel drowsy.


Antidepressants and alcohol: What's the concern?
1 You may feel more depressed or anxious. 2  Drinking can counteract the benefits of your antidepressant medication, making your symptoms more difficult to treat. 3  Alcohol may seem to improve your mood in the short term, but its overall effect increases symptoms of depression and anxiety.


Antidepressants and alcohol: What's the concern?
Stopping and starting your medications can make your depression worse. While it's generally best not to drink at all if you're depressed, ask your doctor. If you have depression: 1  You may be at risk of alcohol abuse. 2  People with depression are at increased risk of substance abuse and addiction.


Alcohol and Depression
Drinking will only make depression worse. People who are depressed and drink too much have more frequent and severe episodes of depression, and are more likely to think about suicide. Heavy alcohol use also can make antidepressants less effective.


Alcohol, Drugs and Bipolar Disorder: A Bad Combination
The explanation of why alcohol and drugs don't mix well with bipolar disorder isn't simple. It really needs to be considered from multiple perspectives. First, it's fairly obvious that the introduction of mind altering chemicals into the brain doesn't exactly help to sustain mental stability.

Curtain
Curtains are a form of window treatment, and complete the overall appearance of the house. Window treatment helps control the ambiance and flow of natural light into the room. The effect of drapery or curtains is best seen in daylight, and with proper indoor light positioning, can look attractive even at night.


What are semi sheer curtains?
You could also have a double drape which offers a sheer or semi sheer inner drape and a thick outer drape so you can let in light without people outside seeing in. The primary purpose of a semi sheer is to let light in while keeping prying eyes out. sheer means that you can see through a fabric.


What are semi sheer curtains?
Best Answer: Curtains are designated by their insulating capability and by how well you can see through them. Semi sheer would be like a slip that you can not see through but is not at all thick. It would offer little insulation. Think of a drape that would block sunlight. One that is thick enough to block light will block heat loss.

Sheer fabric
The Mirror (1899) by John William Godward. Sheer fabric is fabric which is made using thin thread and/or low density of knit and which results in a semi-transparent and flimsy cloth. Some fabrics become transparent when wet. The sheerness of a fabric is expressed as a numerical denier which ranges from 3 (extremely rare, very thin, barely visible) to 15 (standard sheer for stockings) up to 30 (semi opaque) until 100 (opaque). The materials which can be made translucent include gossamer, silk, rayon or nylon.
