In July, 2004 Doyle had called for a legislation to prevent massive power blackouts like the one that hit the northeast this past year. In August 14, 2003, a massive power outage affected more than 50 million people in eight different stats, Ontario, and Quebec in Canada. Many households were without power for several days. This blackout began in Ohio, where three transmission lines short-circuited. An investigation found that the energy company that owned those power lines was in violation of at least four North Electric Reliability Council operating standards. Doyle introduced almost a year ago a legislation that would establish a national Electric Reliability Organization to enforce power reliability standards across the country. If an organization was to be established it

would go a long way towards improving the reliability of the power grid and reduce the likelihood of a future blackout. Doyle’s plan was named H.R. 3004 and was introduced on September 23, 2003. Unfortunately, H.R. 3004 has been stalled for months, and the House leadership has suddenly refused to consider it.
In October, 2004 Doyle announced that he is working to promise that Congress passes a legislation to improve the supply of flu vaccine before the supply runs out later this year. Doyle has asked that he be added as a cosponsor of the Flu Protection Act. The legislation would offer tax credit for the expansion of flu vaccine production facilities, and would offer a government buy-back guarantee for the vaccine makers who end up with extra flu vaccine doses at the end of the flu season.

A Narrative of a Revolutionary Soldier is a memoir written by Joseph Plumb Martin, an ordinary soldier who served the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War. As the name indicated, the memoir mainly portrays the common men’s experiences and feelings, especially their dangers and sufferings, during the revolutionary period. Based on Martin’s unique perspective, his memoir cannot provide us with the big picture from the top down, such as the military strategy and the charismatic leadership of American revolutionary army. However, it offers exclusive insights and precious details that allow us to closely examine what truly transpired among the thousands of soldiers during that period.
With all the sugar plantations in the New World there was now a plethora of sugar to go around. Sugar, usually a commodity only for the rich, was now “...so cheap that the common people could afford it” (Doc. 4). Humans are predisposed to crave sweetness, unlike salty, sour, and mixed tastes, which one must learn to like (Doc. 4). That is why from the 1600s to the 1800s sugar drove the economy, and consequently the Industrial Age (Doc. 4). This change in the abundance or sugar, and thereby its price affects us even today. Food would have an entirely different taste if sugar was an expensive luxury eaten
Sugar has been the basis of Europe and America where very few Europeans knew about sucrose in 1000 A. D. but shortly after cane sugar was highly sought after but why? Was sugar only loved because of its sweetness? By 1650 the English nobility and wealthy were very inve...
The spread of sugar was very important in the world. The uses of sugar was passed around by different cultures and nations. This made sugar very needed throughout the world. At one point, it became almost impossible to purchase this commodity. It brought preservation of fruit, sweetening of bitter foods, and was a source of quick calories for the underprivileged workers. It brought independence to nations and built great economies. Sugar grew the business of slave trade and expanded the production of such an important crop. Without the sugar commodity, world history would not be anywhere to where it is
A reason that bottled water has been valued over tap water would be that it is more portable. It is more convenient to just go and pick up a bottle of water than have to fill something up and take it with you. If you are in a time crunch you would
Instilling this new way of energy usage into off-grid communities will inevitably increase the state of living for those in cities and other well-populated areas. The change to renewable energy sources could drastically lower the pollutants currently being dispersed into the atmosphere by coal mines and other harmful power options, increasing the supply of renewable energy would allow us to replace carbon-intensive energy sources and significantly reduce U.S. global warming emissions. a 25 percent by 2025 national renewable electricity standard would lower power plant CO2 emissions 277 million metric tons annually by 2025—the equivalent of the annual output from 70 typical (600 MW) new coal plants (“Benefits of Renewable Energy Use”). Electricity production accounts for more than one-third of U.S. global warming emissions, with the majority generated by coal-fired power plants.
This will affect suppliers and consumers as well. Suppliers will not make excessive profits since demand will not change and consumers will be affected with blackouts and power shortage. Demand therefore will be inelastic since there will be little response in quantity demanded to a change in price.
The reason for the blackout was none other than mistake of one man and the inadequate response of many. When one maintenance worker caused the loss of one power line, the adjacent power systems connecting from Ariz...
The sugar trade lasted from 1492-1700s. The Sugar Trade was a huge worldwide event. It caused African people leaving their country to go work on the sugar plantations.

Sugar is not only a sweet substance used in coffee, cookies, and many other sweet tasting foods we love to eat and enjoy. It is truly a good that changed the world in many ways all the way back to its roots. In more than one way sugar is a useful and profitable tool, originating all the way back to the early middle middle ages. The sugar trade impacted the the Earth both socially and politically with the use of slaves brought to the Americas by the middle passage and other places. Economically, especially when prices dropped due to new technological improvements and slave abolishment all over the world. Lastly, the sugar trade impacted the world culturally, by leading
RE: Senate Bill 318 - Offering flu vaccines to persons 65 and older in specific facilities
Many people in the United States opt for bottled water instead of tap water. They like to think bottled water is safer for your health because it is in a bottle and not directly from the faucet. They never take the time to realize how much money and plastic they are wasting in a year. Over fifty billion plastic water bottles are bought every year by Americans, and a lot of money is spent. Tap water is natural; therefore, it does not cost anybody a cent to use, so it should be referred to more often instead of bottled water. Although bottled water has its health benefits, tap water has health benefits that are more natural for the human body and the environment.
