When does Mirena become effective?
If started within the first seven days of menstrual bleeding, no back up method is needed - it's immediately effective. If started at any other time in the menstrual cycle, use a back up method for seven days. If you're switching from the shot, implant, or a birth control pill, continue the hormonal birth control method for seven days if you're not in the first five days of menstrual bleeding. If you're starting on the day of an in-clinic suction abortion, no backup is needed.
Why were the articles of confederations revised?
At this point, the US had just broken free from the control of England. They feared a powerful government, so they enacted the Articles of Confederation. This basically said that the country was a loose association of the states, and the federal government had little or no power. Several instances where federal power was needed, such as Shay's Rebellion, proved that a stronger form of government was needed.
Because the states were pretty much free to say no to things like taxes and comunity programs, the federal government was very weak. They finally revised the articles of confederation to tie the states closer together and to build a stronger economy.
