...Sandusky, Ohio is a Great Lakes port town located on the shore of Lake Erie. It has a rich history dating back to wilderness days pre-dating the War of 1812. It has never been a large city but it has always held a central role in the historical events of the nation. Not the least of these was as an important stop for slaves seeking freedom on the Underground Railroad. Sandusky’s Tradition Was Steeped in Anti-Slavery Sentiment Sandusky’s leaders' views against slavery took root early on one of its earliest scions, an opinionated and fearless Irishman named John Beatty who served as Sandusky's Mayor from 1833 to 1836. Beatty carried his unswerving stand against slavery as a public banner. A staunch member of the Sandusky Methodist church, Beatty...

...SMOKING BAN – OHIO STATE LAW As early as the days of Christopher Columbus accidentally mistaking our beautiful country, the United States of America, for our Eastern hemisphere friends India; there has been a major agricultural product whose historical prominence still exists to this very day. That product is the tobacco plant. Early settlers of our great nation grew and brought this very plant from various parts of the world. Little did they know that the tobacco plant would eventually be rolled into a piece of filter paper, added to other harmful substances, and turn into one of the largest health addictions mankind has ever faced. It was not until the two World Wars of the 20th century, where the fad of cigarette smoking skyrocketed (“The History of Smoking”). During the period of the World Wars, medical research was still in its infancy stages and no corollary was established between cigarette smoking and its adverse health effects. It was not until 1964, when the United States Surgeon General stated that cigarette smoking was directly linked to lung cancer (“The History of Smoking”). This is when the government decided it was the best to intervene since the safety of its citizens was at stake. In today’s day and age, cigarette companies have expanded in various different markets and are a part of a multi-billion dollar industry. Unfortunately even with all the technological advances and modern day medical practices that mankind has discovered, cigarette smoking is still...

...Chapter 23 Outline Politics in the Gilded Age 1. 10 Important Facts a) Ulysses S. Grant - He was a great soldier but an inept politician. Republicans would wave “the bloody shirt” for Grant which was reviving gory memories of the civil war. Grant had won with 214 electoral votes to 80 votes for Seymour. b) James G. Blaine - He was from Maine and was a radiantly personable congressman with an elastic conscience. Blaine was one of the late 19th century's leading Republicans and champion of the moderate reformist faction of the party known as the "Half-Breeds". c) Burly “Boss” Tweed – He employed briery, graft, and fraudulent elections to milk the metropolis of as much 200 million dollars. Tweed’s luck ran out when the New York Times discovered evidence in 1871 and published. He then died behind bars. d) Democrats – They had a solid electoral base in the south and in the northern industrial cities, teeming with immigrants and controlled by well-oiled political machines. e) Republicans – Their strength laid largely in the Mid-West and the rural and small-town Northeast. Important blocs of republicans’ ballots came from the GAR- a politically potent organization with many Union veterans of the civil war. f) Grover Cleveland – He was a solid lawyer of 47 and was the first democrat to take the oath of presidential office in twenty...

...Fabiel Ortiz June 8, 2015 NWFL As the new commissioner of the National Women’s Football League or NWFL, I am considering structuring the NWFL as a single entity rather than as a traditional league such as the National Football League (NFL) or the Major League Baseball (MLB). Traditional structures are nonprofit incorporated or unincorporated associations of clubs, where each member club has separate as well as independent ownership of said club. Depending on which sport the club is in, there will be different rules concerning club ownership. There are advantages as well as disadvantages to being a traditional structure. The main advantage of a traditional structure is that it’s promise for potential profits for anyone who wants to make an investment. The main disadvantage of a traditional structure is the potential liability of the necessary agreements among the owners in that they go by “for the good of the league as a whole.” Single entity structure is different than the traditional structure. In a single entity structure, teams argue that they are a single entity because it offers a league-generated entertainment product rather than a collection of individual entities in an economic competition with one another (Sharp). There have been cases about single entity structures. One case was when a group of soccer players from the MLS sued the league. The players stated that the MLS used the single entity structure as an attempt to restrain any trades by limiting economic competition...

...Water pollution is becoming a problem in the United States. Water is one of our most valuable resources. We use water for so many things daily, it is so important for us. Dirty water is one of the world’s biggest risks. Lake Erie is facing such a problem and has been since the 1960s. If this pollution is not controlled, it could be harmful to humans that live around the lake and also the animals who live there. The State of Ohio needs to enact a policy to clean up the pollution in Lake Erie and find a way to prevent pollution from happening. This hits home for me because I live in Willoughby right by Lake Erie. When I go to the beach I see how dirty the water is there. I hesitate to swim in it. Lake Erie is a beautiful lake when it is not so dirty, and we should try and preserve it. If we don’t it will be become so polluted that it will be considered dead, this happened in the 1960s due to all the factories dumping waste in to the Lake. It was literally a dumping ground and it even caught on fire a few times due to the toxic wastes. The phosphorus levels in Lake Erie are increasing due to the pollution causing harm to the fishes that reside in it. In 2014, Lake Erie had so much algae from pollution that it caused the City of Toledo to be left without fresh water. This algae was caused by the excessive amount of phosphorus in the lake. This excessive amount of Phosphorus is caused when the fertilizer is dumped into the lake by farmers. There has also been an excessive amount...

...Synthetic Diamonds for Nanotechnology Diamonds may serve another purpose other than being fashionable ornaments. Scientists at the Ohio University have experimented how electrons flowed through diamonds. What they found was that electrons passing through diamond performed a magnetic effect wave, similar to the wave performed at sports games. Known as spin, this effect may have the capability of transmitting data through computer circuits with the use of synthetic diamond wiring. With characteristics such as being “hard, transparent, electrically insulating, impervious to environmental contamination, resistant to acid and does not hold heat as semiconductors do”, diamonds become a great candidate for spin to occur. It was concluded that diamond remitted spin better than the metals found in computers today. Titled, “Could Diamonds be a Computer’s Best Friend?”, I found the quality of the information presented in this article to be informative and mentally captivating. The idea that synthetic diamond wiring could one day replace the wiring in computers circuits thus enabling a faster and more powerful computer can only leave the imagination to wonder what else can be used to transmit information. The article not only explained the benefits of synthetic diamond wiring but also introduces a new frontier for spin and diamonds. I would recommend this article as an informational resource for those who want information on or are interested in synthetic diamonds and computers. I...

...Morgan Moe Drugstores Management Style Analysis TABLE OF CONTENTS Morgan Moe Drugstores 1 Analysis Team 4 Introduction 5 The Problem 5 “Mans Search for Meaning” 5 The 5 programs 5 The Study 6 Table 1: Study Results 6 Analysis Team Annie Malpartida Brad Ingram Daniel Ojst Fernando Lamelas Jeremy Spund Introduction The Problem Manufacturing across the Midwest has seen sharp declines in the May 08 to May 09 Year. The automotive industry saw a reduction of over 39%, Steel output was down 36.8%, and manufacturing as a sector saw a 24% decrease.[i] But what does this mean for Morgan Moe Drugstores? Why is manufacturing so important? The Midwest primary output is manufacturing and agriculture. A decline in either one of these sectors means that the workers driving the Midwest economy have less to spend; meaning that the economic circulation in the region as a whole decreases. This loss of manufacturing is seen in the falling revenues of Morgan Moe. In many ways, the company has dealt with the difficult economic climate well. It has closed underperforming stores, consolidated the workforce, and reduced overhead. However, the laying off of many employees had some consequences. Negative press, internal rumors, and malcontent are spreading through the workforce. Websites like www.Ihatemorganmoe.blogspot.com are developing to further spread the discontent of laid-off workers. “Mans Search for Meaning” Upon reading this book, Jim...

Since the sweaters are customized in house they do not need to be concerned with keeping inventory of specific schools. They should continue to use the aggregate demand forecasting because to order by school the forecasting would not meet the suppliers minimum order quantity of 5000 and it would take too long to get the sweaters based on the 20 week lead time as well.
