Although no membrane physically divides the abdominopelvic cavity , it can be useful to distinguish between the abdominal cavity , the division that houses the digestive organs , and the pelvic cavity , the division that houses the organs of reproduction .

Body cavity

The diaphragm divides the thoracic and the abdominal cavities . The abdominal cavity occupies the entire lower half of the trunk , anterior to the spine . Just under the abdominal cavity , anterior to the buttocks , is the pelvic cavity . The pelvic cavity is funnel shaped and is located inferior and anterior to the abdominal cavity . Together the abdominal and pelvic cavity can be referred to as the abdominopelvic cavity while the thoracic , abdominal , and pelvic cavities together can be referred to as the ventral body cavity . Subdivisions of the Posterior ( Dorsal ) and Anterior ( Ventral ) Cavities The anterior ( ventral ) cavity has two main subdivisions : the thoracic cavity and the abdominopelvic cavity . The thoracic cavity is the more superior subdivision of the anterior cavity , and it is enclosed by the rib cage . The thoracic cavity contains the lungs and the heart , which is located in the mediastinum . The diaphragm forms the floor of the thoracic cavity and separates it from the more inferior abdominopelvic cavity . The abdominopelvic cavity is the largest cavity in the body . Although no membrane physically divides the abdominopelvic cavity , it can be useful to distinguish between the abdominal cavity , the division that houses the digestive organs , and the pelvic cavity , the division that houses the organs of reproduction .

Continental Army

The Continental Army consisted of soldiers from all 13 colonies and , after 1776 , from all 13 states . When the American Revolutionary War began at the Battles of Lexington and Concord on April 19 , 1775 , the colonial revolutionaries did not have an army . Previously , each colony had relied upon the militia , made up of part - time citizen - soldiers , for local defense , or the raising of temporary `` provincial regiments '' during specific crises such as the French and Indian War of 1754 -- 63 . As tensions with Great Britain increased in the years leading to the war , colonists began to reform their militias in preparation for the perceived potential conflict . Training of militiamen increased after the passage of the Intolerable Acts in 1774 . Colonists such as Richard Henry Lee proposed forming a national militia force , but the First Continental Congress rejected the idea .

The pancreas and salivary gland make amylase ( alpha amylase ) to hydrolyse dietary starch into disaccharides and trisaccharides which are converted by other enzymes to glucose to supply the body with energy .

Amylase

An amylase ( / ˈæmɪleɪs / ) is an enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of starch into sugars . Amylase is present in the saliva of humans and some other mammals , where it begins the chemical process of digestion . Foods that contain large amounts of starch but little sugar , such as rice and potatoes , may acquire a slightly sweet taste as they are chewed because amylase degrades some of their starch into sugar . The pancreas and salivary gland make amylase ( alpha amylase ) to hydrolyse dietary starch into disaccharides and trisaccharides which are converted by other enzymes to glucose to supply the body with energy . Plants and some bacteria also produce amylase . As diastase , amylase was the first enzyme to be discovered and isolated ( by Anselme Payen in 1833 ) . Specific amylase proteins are designated by different Greek letters . All amylases are glycoside hydrolases and act on α - 1 , 4 - glycosidic bonds .

Six years later , the day was made a permanent national holiday when President Richard Nixon signed it into law in 1972 .

Father's Day

A bill to accord national recognition of the holiday was introduced in Congress in 1913 . In 1916 , President Woodrow Wilson went to Spokane to speak at a Father 's Day celebration and he wanted to make it an officially recognized federal holiday , but Congress resisted , fearing that it would become commercialized . US President Calvin Coolidge recommended in 1924 that the day be observed throughout the entire nation , but he stopped short at issuing a national proclamation . Two earlier attempts to formally recognize the holiday had been defeated by Congress . In 1957 , Maine Senator Margaret Chase Smith wrote a Father 's Day proposal accusing Congress of ignoring fathers for 40 years while honoring mothers , thus `` ( singling ) out just one of our two parents '' . In 1966 , President Lyndon B. Johnson issued the first presidential proclamation honoring fathers , designating the third Sunday in June as Father 's Day . Six years later , the day was made a permanent national holiday when President Richard Nixon signed it into law in 1972 .

The hurricane brought a storm surge of 10 -- 12 ft ( 3 -- 3.5 m ) to Tampa Bay . The highest rainfall total in Tampa was at 8.53 in ( 23.5 mm ) . However , the observer noted that winds probably blew water out of the gauge . The barometric pressure fell to 968 mbar ( 28.6 inHg ) , breaking a previous record set in 1910 . The hurricane also brought sustained winds of 75 mph ( 119 km / h ) and a storm tide of 10.5 ft ( 3 m ) . Damage from the wind was generally minor , while most of the impact wrought by the storm was due to abnormally high tides in Tampa and elsewhere in the area . Much of the city was flooded , with the worst along Bayshore Boulevard , where some of the most expensive properties were located . At Hyde Park , dwellings were inundated about halfway up the first story , prompting several people to be rescued by boat . Electrical poles and wires were washed away near the intersection of Bayshore Boulevard and Howard Avenue . The latter was also left impassible by car . In the Palmetto Beach neighborhood , much of the section was inundated . A group of about 40 volunteers rescued a number of women and children . A total of 50 homes were destroyed by cedar logs used to construct cigar boxes at the Tampa Box Company on 22nd Street .

Gone with the Wind (film)

Cinematographer Lee Garmes began the production , but on March 11 , 1939 -- after a month of shooting footage that Selznick and his associates regarded as `` too dark '' -- was replaced with Ernest Haller , working with Technicolor cinematographer Ray Rennahan . Garmes completed the first third of the film -- mostly everything prior to Melanie having the baby -- but did not receive a credit . Most of the filming was done on `` the back forty '' of Selznick International with all the location scenes being photographed in California , mostly in Los Angeles County or neighboring Ventura County . Tara , the fictional Southern plantation house , existed only as a plywood and papier - mâché facade built on the Selznick studio lot . For the burning of Atlanta , new false facades were built in front of the Selznick backlot 's many old abandoned sets , and Selznick himself operated the controls for the explosives that burned them down . Sources at the time put the estimated production costs at $3.85 million , making it the second most expensive film made up to that point , with only Ben - Hur ( 1925 ) having cost more .

Valley

A valley formed by flowing water , or river valley , is usually V - shaped . The exact shape will depend on the characteristics of the stream flowing through it . Rivers with steep gradients , as in mountain ranges , produce steep walls and a bottom . Shallower slopes may produce broader and gentler valleys . However , in the lowest stretch of a river , where it approaches its base level , it begins to deposit sediment and the valley bottom becomes a floodplain .

From 1966 -- 2011 ( excluding the six Super Bowl games held in a stadium without a professional team ) , the Super Bowl host team has had 11 winning seasons , four split seasons , and 25 losing seasons . Mathematically , the probability of that many losing seasons or more occurring by chance ( assuming a 50 percent chance of having a losing season ( disregarding . 500 seasons ) ) is 7.69 percent . It should be noted , however , that the Super Bowl host stadium is selected several years before the game is played , without regard to the teams that qualify .

As the first Roman emperor , Augustus justified the novelty of one - man rule with a vast programme of religious revivalism and reform .

Roman Empire

In the wake of the Republic 's collapse , state religion had adapted to support the new regime of the emperors . As the first Roman emperor , Augustus justified the novelty of one - man rule with a vast programme of religious revivalism and reform . Public vows formerly made for the security of the republic now were directed at the wellbeing of the emperor . So - called `` emperor worship '' expanded on a grand scale the traditional Roman veneration of the ancestral dead and of the Genius , the divine tutelary of every individual . Upon death , an emperor could be made a state divinity ( divus ) by vote of the Senate . Imperial cult , influenced by Hellenistic ruler cult , became one of the major ways Rome advertised its presence in the provinces and cultivated shared cultural identity and loyalty throughout the Empire . Cultural precedent in the Eastern provinces facilitated a rapid dissemination of Imperial cult , extending as far as the Augustan military settlement at Najran , in present - day Saudi Arabia . Rejection of the state religion became tantamount to treason against the emperor . This was the context for Rome 's conflict with Christianity , which Romans variously regarded as a form of atheism and novel superstitio .

The derivation of the phrase is not clear .

Letting the cat out of the bag

The derivation of the phrase is not clear . One suggestion is that the phrase refers to the whip - like `` cat o'nine tails '' , an instrument of punishment once used on Royal Navy vessels . The instrument was purportedly stored in a red sack , and a sailor who revealed the transgressions of another would be `` letting the cat out of the bag '' . Another suggested derivation is from the `` pig in a poke '' scam , where a customer buying a suckling pig in a sack would actually be sold a ( less valuable ) cat , and would not realise the deception until the bag was opened . Johannes Agricola made reference to the expression `` let the cat out of the bag '' in a letter to Martin Luther on 4 May 1530 as referenced in Lyndal Roper 's 2016 biography about Martín Luther .

13 Reasons Why

Similarly , clinical psychologists such as Daniel J. Reidenberg and Erika Martinez , as well as mental health advocate MollyKate Cline of Teen Vogue magazine , have expressed concerns regarding the risk of suicide contagion . However , Eric Beeson , a counselor at The Family Institute at Northwestern University noted that `` it 's unlikely that one show alone could trigger someone to attempt suicide . '' Mental health professionals have also criticized the series ' depiction of suicide itself , much of which violates widely promulgated recommendations for reporting on actual suicides or not depicting them in fiction , in order to not encourage copycat suicides . The season finale , which depicts Hannah 's suicide in graphic detail , has been particularly criticized in this regard . Nic Sheff , a writer for the show , has defended it as intended to dispel the myth that suicides `` quietly drift off '' , and recalled how he himself was deterred from a suicide attempt by recalling a survivor 's account of how painful and horrifying it was .

Louis personally supervised the captures of Mons in 1691 and Namur in 1692 . Luxembourg gave France the defensive line of the Sambre by capturing Charleroi in 1693 . France also overran most of the Duchy of Savoy after the battles of Marsaglia and Staffarde in 1693 . While naval stalemate ensued after the French victory at the Battle of Beachy Head in 1690 and the Allied victory at Barfleur - La Hougue in 1692 , the Battle of Torroella in 1694 exposed Catalonia to French invasion , culminating in the capture of Barcelona . Although the Dutch captured Pondichéry in 1693 , a French raid on the Spanish treasure port of Cartagena in 1697 yielded a fortune of 10,000,000 livres .

These discrete regions within the muscle cell store calcium ( increasing the capacity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum to release calcium ) and release it when an action potential courses down the transverse tubules , eliciting muscle contraction .

Terminal cisternae

Terminal cisternae are enlarged areas of the sarcoplasmic reticulum surrounding the transverse tubules . These discrete regions within the muscle cell store calcium ( increasing the capacity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum to release calcium ) and release it when an action potential courses down the transverse tubules , eliciting muscle contraction . Because terminal cisternae ensure rapid calcium delivery , they are well developed in muscles that contract quickly , such as fast twitch skeletal muscle . Terminal cisternae then go on to release calcium , which binds to troponin . This releases tropomyosin , exposing active sites of the thin filament , actin .

After the assassination of James A. Garfield by a rejected office - seeker in 1881 , the calls for civil service reform intensified .

Spoils system

After the assassination of James A. Garfield by a rejected office - seeker in 1881 , the calls for civil service reform intensified . Moderation of the spoils system at the federal level came with the passage of the Pendleton Act in 1883 , which created a bipartisan Civil Service Commission to evaluate job candidates on a nonpartisan merit basis . While few jobs were covered under the law initially , the law allowed the President to transfer jobs and their current holders into the system , thus giving the holder a permanent job . The Pendleton Act 's reach was expanded as the two main political parties alternated control of the White House every election between 1884 and 1896 . After each election the outgoing President applied the Pendleton Act to jobs held by his political supporters . By 1900 , most federal jobs were handled through civil service and the spoils system was limited only to very senior positions .

Huey, Dewey, and Louie

On few occasions until 1945 and most every cartoon short afterward , all three nephews wore identical outfits ( most commonly red ) . It was n't until the 1980s when it became established that Huey is dressed in red , Dewey in blue , and Louie in green . Disney 's archivist Dave Smith , in `` Disney A to Z , '' said , `` Note that the brightest hue of the three is red ( Huey ) , the color of water , dew , is blue ( Dewey ) , and that leaves Louie , and leaves are green . '' A few random combinations appear in early Disney merchandise and books , such as orange and yellow . Another combination that shows up from time to time is Huey in blue , Dewey in green , and Louie in red . In - story , this inconsistency is explained away as a result of the ducklings borrowing each other 's clothes .

Obstetric ultrasonography was first practiced in the 1960s ; the first home test kit for hCG was invented in 1968 .

Pregnancy test

A pregnancy test attempts to determine whether a woman is pregnant . Markers that indicate are found in urine and blood , and pregnancy tests require sampling one of these substances . The first of these markers to be discovered , human chorionic gonadotropin ( hCG ) , was discovered in 1930 to be produced by the syncytiotrophoblast cells of the fertilised ova ( eggs ) . While hCG is a reliable marker of pregnancy , it can not be detected until after implantation : this results in false negatives if the test is performed during the very early stages of pregnancy . HCG can be detected via blood 8 days after fertilization of the egg , and in the urine 10 days after . Obstetric ultrasonography may also be used to detect pregnancy . Obstetric ultrasonography was first practiced in the 1960s ; the first home test kit for hCG was invented in 1968 . The kits went on the market in the United States and Europe in the mid-1970s .

The teams are promoted and relegated by the FMF based on percentage calculations . Relegation is a common practice in Mexican football . There is a club exchange of each tier with the adjacent tiers so that a division 's least successful team is relegated ( transferred ) to the next lower tier and the most successful club of the lower tier is promoted to the tier above . By the placement of each , the top tier can not promote and the bottom tier can not relegate .

Liverpool F.C.

Moores eventually sold the club to American businessmen George Gillett and Tom Hicks on 6 February 2007 . The deal valued the club and its outstanding debts at £ 218.9 million . The pair paid £ 5,000 per share , or £ 174.1 m for the total shareholding and £ 44.8 m to cover the club 's debts . Disagreements between Gillett and Hicks , and the fans ' lack of support for them , resulted in the pair looking to sell the club . Martin Broughton was appointed chairman of the club on 16 April 2010 to oversee its sale . In May 2010 , accounts were released showing the holding company of the club to be £ 350m in debt ( due to leveraged takeover ) with losses of £ 55m , causing auditor KPMG to qualify its audit opinion . The group 's creditors , including the Royal Bank of Scotland , took Gillett and Hicks to court to force them to allow the board to proceed with the sale of the club , the major asset of the holding company . A High Court judge , Mr Justice Floyd , ruled in favour of the creditors and paved the way for the sale of the club to Fenway Sports Group ( formerly New England Sports Ventures ) , although Gillett and Hicks still had the option to appeal . Liverpool was sold to Fenway Sports Group on 15 October 2010 for £ 300m .

Human embryogenesis

The germinal stage refers to the time from fertilization through the development of the early embryo until implantation is completed in the uterus . The germinal stage takes around 10 days . During this stage , the zygote begins to divide , in a process called cleavage . A blastocyst is then formed and implanted in the uterus . Embryogenesis continues with the next stage of gastrulation , when the three germ layers of the embryo form in a process called histogenesis , and the processes of neurulation and organogenesis follow .
