The paradox argues that a defeat in an international crisis‚ such as when a leader backs down‚ makes an actor look weaker and less credible. This will make them more likely to follow through with

The design and modeling of microscale electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) is a unique engineering discipline. At small length scales‚ the design of resonators‚ gyroscopes‚ accelerometers‚ and actuators must consider the effects of several physical phenomena. MEMS devices and sensors may even utilize multiphysics phenomena for its very function or for increased sensitivity. To this end‚ the MEMS Module provides user interfaces for electromagnetic-structure‚ thermal-structure‚ or fluid-structure interactions

Kennedy was also much involved into military ideas and strategies. He talked with various leaders of countries and helped to create an alliance with South Vietnam against the north. He was warned about the domino effect and that America could be trapped by Northern Vietnam‚ but he still sent troops to assist Southern Vietnam against Northern Vietnam.

Biological Bases of Behavior Nervous System Made up of neurons‚ which are the nerve cells. These send electrical impulses to one another ( through a process known as firing) telling the body what to do. The parts of a neuron include: Cell Body (a.k.a. soma) – Main part of neuron; contains basic cell parts such as nucleus‚ ER‚ etc.; also has dendrites extending from it. Dendrites – bushy fibers which extend from the soma; receives impulses and directs them towards soma Axon – an extension
