What is the best city in the US?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's difficult to say what the "best" city in the US is, as different cities are best for different things. Some cities are known for their vibrant cultural scenes, while others are known for their natural beauty or outdoor recreation opportunities. Some people might prefer large, cosmopolitan cities, while others might prefer smaller, more laid-back towns. Ultimately, the best city for you will depend on your personal preferences and what you value most in a city

Why did Japan fail in the Pacific war against the US in World War 2?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well, I'm just kicking this off so don't flame me, but looking at the major engagements on wikipaedia, it seems that the Japanese empire was severely outnumbered by the allied powers; so if you check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Guadalcanal you'll see that 60,000 allied troops opposed around 40000 Japanese troops. I suspect that warfare between technologically similar societies tends to end up depended on gross numerical superiority.

What were barrage balloons for?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The barrage balloon was simply a bag of lighter-than-air gas attached to a steel cable anchored to the ground. The balloon could be raised or lowered to the desired altitude by means of a winch. Its purpose was ingenuous: to deny low-level airspace to enemy aircraft. This simple mission provided three major benefits: (1) it forced aircraft to higher altitudes, thereby decreasing surprise and bombing accuracy; (2) it enhanced ground-based air defenses and the ability of fighters to acquire targets,since intruding aircraft were limited in altitudes and direction: and (3) the cable presented a definite mental and material hazard to pilots. Many people think that a barrage balloon system was designed to snare aircraft like a spider web capturing unwary flies. Not so. Any airplanes caught in these aerial nets were a bonus; the real objective of the balloons was to deny low-altitude flight to the enemy. Mindful of these capabilities, the British saw the barrage balloon as a viable means to counter low-level attackers during the world wars.

Why doesn't japan want to surrender?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Japan Did surrender to the USA, and President Harry Truman, after two atomic bombs were dropped on Japan, (and after Russia declared war on Japan). Japan did not want to surrender, because their samurai code said it was better to die instead of to surrender. It was after they were bombed with nuclear weapons (and after Russia attacked the Japanese forces in Manchuria), that Japan finally decided to surrender.

Did the Italians after surrender fight for allies in World War 2?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

no that was in WWI

Actually in both wars they switched sides.

-Before WW1 they were aligned with Germany but switched when the war started.

-When the Allies invaded Sicily during WW2 the Italians surrendered and joined the Allies, but Benito Mussolini was rescued by Germany and he started the Italian Social Republic in Northern Italy, It became Allies (US, UK, Italy) VS. Axis (Germany, Italian Social Republic).

The influence of the Philippines Indonesia?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Not that much. Anthropologically, many Indonesian people are descended from the Philippines. Since, the Taiwanese first reached the Philippines and then what is now Malaysia, and Indonesia. Which is why, Indonesians look exactly like Filipinos. Even their culture resembles Filipino cultures a little bit.

But, Indonesians and Filipinos don't really know each other these days. They simply just don't pay attention to each other. They're caught up in much other things. If Filipinos and Indonesians started becoming aware of each other, there is much they would learn. They'd also be stunned at how similar they look.

Penile Prostheses

Definition

Penile prostheses are semirigid or inflatable devices that are implanted into penises to alleviate impotence.

Purpose

The penis is composed of one channel for urine and semen and three compartments with tough, fibrous walls containing "erectile tissue." With appropriate stimulation, the blood vessels that lead out of these compartments constrict, trapping blood. Blood pressure fills and hardens the compartments producing an erection of sufficient firmness to perform sexual intercourse. Additional stimulation leads to ejaculation, where semen is pumped out of the urethra. When this system fails, impotence (failure to create and maintain an erection) occurs.

Impotence can be caused by a number of conditions, including diabetes, spinal cord injury, prolonged drug abuse, and removal of a prostate gland. If the medical condition is irreversible, a penile prosthesis may be considered. Patients whose impotence is caused by psychological problems are not recommended for implant surgery.

Description

Penile implant surgery is conducted on patients who have exhausted all other areas of treatment. The semirigid device consists of two rods that are easier and less expensive to implant than the inflatable cylinders. Once implanted, the semirigid device needs no follow-up adjustments, however it produces a penis which constantly remains semi-erect. The inflatable

The inflatable implant is a common penile prosthesis. This device connects through a tube to a flexible fluid reservoir and a pump. The pump is shaped like a testicle and inserted in the scrotum. When the pump is squeezed, the fluid is forced into the inflatable cylinders implanted inside the penis, producing an erection.

cylinders produce a more natural effect. The patient is able to simulate an erection by using a pump located in the scrotum.

With the patient asleep under general anesthesia, the device is inserted into the erectile tissue of the penis through an incision in the fibrous wall. In order to implant the pump for the inflatable implant, incisions are made in the abdomen and the perineum (area between the anus and the genitals). A fluid reservoir is inserted into the groin and the pump is placed in the scrotum. The cylinders, reservoir, and pump are connected by tubes and tested before the incisions are closed.

Preparation

Surgery always requires an adequately informed patient, both as to risks and benefits. In this case, the sexual partner should also be involved in the discussion. Prior to surgery, antibacterial cleansing occurs and the surrounding areas are shaved.

Aftercare

To minimize swelling, ice packs are applied to the penis for the first 24 hours following surgery. The incision sites are cleansed daily to prevent infection. Pain relievers may be taken.

Risks

With any implant, there is a slightly greater risk of infection. The implant may irritate the penis and cause continuous pain. The inflatable prosthesis may need follow-up surgery to repair leaks in the reservoir or to reconnect the tubing.

What year did The Allied powers declare war on Japan?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Britain and the United States declared war on Japan on December 8, 1941.

Bizarre as it may sound, the United Kingdom technically declared war on Japan before the U.S. did. While President Roosevelt spent about a day preparing his war declaration speech*, Prime Minister Churchill felt honor bound to keep a promise to declare war on Japan "within the hour" of learning of an attack on the U.S.

* Literally up to the last hour, FDR's Secretary of State Stinson insisted that the speech be long and detailed. FDR instead chose to do a short and succint speech. Let the record show that people today can even recite the cadence with which FDR stated, "Yesterday, December 7th, 1941 -- a date which wil live IN INFAMY -- the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan."

In what battle was it where japan was first defeated?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Guadalcanal. However, it was a six month long battle...with many US losses, then finally a US win. Contrary to popular belief; Guadalcanal wasn't simply a land fight...it was a series of NAVAL battles, in which the US Navy suffered about the same, if not more losses than the Japanese Navy did. Had the USN lost the naval battle, the US Marines on the island would have starved and ran out of ammunition, ultimately losing the ground war on Guadalcanal. As it was, the Japanese ARMY starved and ran of ammunition...and ultimately lost the ground war. However, instead of being wiped out or surrendering (which wasn't going to happen)...they evacuated the island(s), and were transported to other garrisons to continue the war. They were transported by high speed warships (destroyers) under cover of darkness.

Why do you think Japan refused to surrender even after the Allies issued the Potsdam Declaration ultimatum?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Allied demand of both these states to surrender unconditionally made surrender less palatable than might have otherwise been the case. There is no room whatever for negiotiation. Hindsight is a wonderful thing to behold......

Germany and Japan fought on for many reasons, many fought for duty, many fought to hide their crimes, many fought fanatically out of loyalty to the respective leaders of those countries.

Germany especially fought fanatically because of Goebbels propaganda of what would happen to Germany if they surrendered, the conduct of the Red Army when it reached German soil somewhat vindicated this propaganda, Also,Nazi Germany was absolutist, anybody even suspected of cowardice or desertion, or speaking out against the regime or even anybody who muttered the word surrender, were brutally put down.
