a casus belli

Examples of a casus belli in the following topics:

• America's Entry into the War

  • The most prominent leader was Samuel Insull of Chicago, a leading industrialist who had emigrated from England.
  • Wilson released the Zimmerman note to the public and Americans saw it as a Casus belli—a cause for war.
  • The solution was a third route, a "peace without victory," Wilson said.
  • He meant a peace shaped, if not totally dictated, by the United States.
  • A photo of the Zimmermann Telegram.

• The Brief Reign of Peter III

  • The traditionally held view of Peter as a person of weak character and many vices is mainly drawn from the memoirs of his wife and successor.
  • Alarmed at the Russian troops concentrating near their borders, unable to find any allies to resist Russian aggression, and short of money to fund a war, the government of Denmark threatened in late June to invade the free city of Hamburg in northern Germany to force a loan from it.
  • Peter considered this a casus belli and prepared for open warfare against Denmark but he lost his throne before starting the war.
  • A case of Peter's religious policies serves as a demonstrative example of how the pro-Prussian emperor was perceived in Russia.
  • She had her husband arrested and forced him to sign a document of abdication, leaving no one to dispute her accession to the throne.

• Vertebrate Axis Formation

  • However, animal bodies have lateral-medial (toward the side-toward the midline), dorsal-ventral (toward the back-toward the belly), and anterior-posterior (toward the front-toward the back) axes .
  • As the body forms, it must develop in such a way that cells, tissues, and organs are organized correctly along these axes.
  • In early embryonic development, the formation of the primary body axes is a crucial step in establishing the overall body plan of each particular organism.
  • Wnt signaling is also involved in the axis formation of specific body parts and organ systems that are a part of later development.
  • Animal bodies have three axes for symmetry: anterior/posterior (front/behind), dorsal/ventral (back/belly), and lateral/medial (side/middle).

• Using Art

  • Non-motivated art functions on an innate human level and does not fulfill a specific external purpose.
  • Advertising attempts to sell a product by creating associations with a particular product or brand, while propaganda is used to manipulate the public on various ideas.
  • Baglione's "Sacred and Profane Love" is an example of a chiaroscuro painting.
  • Hannah Hoch, Cut with the Dada Kitchen Knife through the Last Weimar Beer-Belly Cultural Epoch in Germany.
  • Hoch's Cut with the Dada Kitchen Knife through the Last Weimar Beer-Belly Cultural Epoch in Germany, is an example of art resulting from the Dadaism movement.

• Establishing Body Axes during Development

  • However, animal bodies have lateral-medial (left-right), dorsal-ventral (back-belly), and anterior-posterior (head-feet) axes .
  • For a short time, the neural tube is open both cranially and caudally.
  • Shh acts as a morphogen, meaning that it acts in a concentration-dependent manner to specify cell types as it moves further from its source.
  • Transverse section of half of a chick embryo of forty-five hours' incubation.
  • Animal bodies have three axes for symmetry:lateral-medial (left-right), dorsal-ventral (back-belly), and anterior-posterior (head-feet).

• Hypoglossal (XII) Nerve

  • It goes on to traverse the hypoglossal canal and, upon emerging, it branches and merges with a branch from the anterior ramus of C1.
  • After passing deep to the posterior belly of the digastric muscle it proceeds to the submandibular region to enter the tongue.
  • Many languages require specific and sometimes unusual uses of the nerve to create unique speech sounds, which may contribute to the difficulties some adults encounter when learning a new language.
  • Progressive bulbar palsy is a neuromuscular atrophy associated with the combined lesions of the hypoglossal nucleus and the nucleus ambiguous, upon atrophy of the motor nerves of the pons and medulla.

• Predation, Herbivory, and the Competitive Exclusion Principle

  • An animal that hunts, kills, and eats other animals is called a predator.
  • For example, the cinnabar moth caterpillar, the fire-bellied toad, and many species of beetle have bright colors that warn of a foul taste, the presence of toxic chemical, and/or the ability to sting or bite, respectively.
  • In Batesian mimicry, a harmless species imitates the warning coloration of a harmful one.
  • The (a) honey locust tree (Gleditsia triacanthos) uses thorns, a mechanical defense, against herbivores, while the (b) Florida red-bellied turtle (Pseudemys nelsoni) uses its shell as a mechanical defense against predators.
  • This results in a decrease in the lynx population.

• Regional Terms and Axes

  • For example, the brachial region consists of the arm as a part of the appendicular region, while the abdominal region consists of the abdomen as a smaller part of the axial region.
  • Another method for describing region An axis uses a straight line between two parts of the body to describe a region of the body with linear direction.
  • For example, blood can be said to flow in a proximal or distal direction through a region marked by that axis.
  • The region between the belly (ventral) and back (dorsal) is often described by a DV axis.
  • Different Directional AP Axes in Three Body Segments of a Horse

• Impact of Diversification on Risk and Return: Unsystematic Risk

  • Remember, we talked about every particular investment having an expected return and a variance.
  • If you are managing a pool of assets, you want to get positive returns without being in danger of "losing your shirt. " The probability that one stock goes belly up is much higher than that the whole stock market does.
  • The idea is that you can only diversify away so much risk, that the marginal returns on each new asset are decreasing, and each transaction has a cost in terms of a transaction fee and also research costs.
  • Proponents of passive management say the market knows best, and they seek a portfolio that has an underlying pool that mimics a benchmark index (think S&P 500).
  • The other guys–active managers–believe that their fundamental analysis yields them a competitive advantage.

• How Skeletal Muscles Are Named

  • Most skeletal muscles in the body are parallel muscles; although they can be seen in a variety of shapes such as flat bands, spindle shaped, and some can have large protrusions in their middle known as the belly of the muscle.
  • Convergent muscles have a common point of attachment, from which the muscle fascicles extend outward, not necessarily in a specific spatial pattern, allowing the muscle to cover a broad surface.
  • Covering a broad surface these fibers allow for more versatile types of movement.
  • If the central tendon branches within a pennate muscle, the muscle is called multipennate.
  • The orbicularis oris which controls the opening of the mouth is an example of a circular muscle.
