Sen. Musto: 2009 Update
Senator Musto provides a legislative update on protecting families, seniors, small businesses, and communities in Connecticut. The budget battle resulted in over $3 billion in spending cuts while protecting critical services. Democrats prioritized protecting the middle class, elderly, children, and poor. The budget will help stabilize the economy and families during difficult times. Senator Musto fought to support small businesses, which are the backbone of Connecticut's economy, through economic assistance programs and efforts to lower healthcare costs.
Sen. Harp: 2009 Update
Senator Toni Harp provides a legislative update on the recent state budget and her priorities of protecting families, seniors, small businesses, and communities. The budget cuts over $3 billion in spending while protecting critical services. As the recession ends, she will continue working to stabilize the economy and grow jobs. She fought to pass a fair budget that raises taxes on joint filers making over $1 million and protects the middle class. Her priorities also include helping small businesses through the recession by opposing cuts to assistance programs and passing a bill for lower health insurance premiums, though it was vetoed.
Time, habits and change
Banks used to be safe and limited by the government, earning income from loans and credit interest. However, new companies offered innovative products that banks could not provide. As a result, large companies abandoned banks and 95 banks closed by 1985. To adapt, banks lifted restrictions, changed employee roles to focus on sales of new products, and altered their training and language to shift their image and internalize this change. Habits and routines provide comfort but can also inhibit change, so changing language and culture was important for banks to evolve with the changing financial industry.
12. capitalism & communism brandon
Capitalism is an economic system that encourages citizens to earn money through their work and skills, with minimal government interference in industries. While it aims to give individuals ownership rights, some argue it has downsides. Communism, alternatively, believes all resources should be shared equally among all people and takes the opposite approach to capitalism by distributing money evenly rather than individuals profiting themselves.
Poster design
This document provides guidelines for designing effective posters. It recommends that posters grab attention with limited text that takes up 1/3 of the space and relevant pictures that illustrate the topic and take up 2/3 of the space. Posters should use a maximum of two font types and three or four font sizes to clearly convey the importance of information. Colors and layout should be carefully selected to avoid clutter and ensure the message can be understood at a glance. Experimentation is encouraged to create an appealing visual presentation.
4 Creative And Challenging Tips For Poster Design
Do you know when were the first posters created and where? The origin of poster dates back to the mid-19th century and France was the place where they were created. From then till now, poster design has come a long way and its usage has spread nearly all over the world. Now-a-days, numerous innovations and trends are defining the design of a poster. Grown from the basic idea of advertisement for which they are designed, many challenges have attributed to the change in their design. So, basically the message to be conveyed by a poster amalgamated with its ability to reach everyone is what outlines the whole purpose of a poster design. Explore this Presentation...
Capitalism vs Socialism
The document summarizes and compares the key criticisms of capitalism and socialism. Regarding capitalism, critics note that the free market can be unstable and present dangers to the vulnerable. Critics of socialism argue that heavy taxation to provide equal social services discourages business innovation since profits do not directly benefit owners. The document then provides more in-depth descriptions of capitalism and socialism, including their defining characteristics, philosophical underpinnings, pros and cons according to different thinkers. In conclusion, the author personally supports capitalism over socialism due to the importance of individual economic freedom and right to private property.

Socialism vs capitalism
Capitalism is an economic system defined by private ownership of property and business for profit. It features free markets, competition, and limited government intervention. Benefits include efficient resource use and economic growth, while drawbacks include inequality and instability. Socialism is a system where the state owns and controls production and economic planning. It aims for equality and welfare, but can lack incentives, individual freedom, and efficiency compared to capitalism. Both systems have merits and demerits when considering economic outcomes and social impacts.

Food Pyramid Lesson
This was an assignment for my Technology in Education class at CMU. We had to make a presentation that covered one of the K-8 Curriculum Standards.
Capitalism, socialism & mixed economy
An economic system is the mechanism by which a society produces, distributes, and consumes goods and services. The main types of economic systems are capitalism, socialism, and mixed economies. Capitalism is based on private ownership and market forces, while socialism involves public or collective ownership and economic planning. Most modern economies are mixed, combining elements of both capitalism and socialism.
Types of economic systems
The document discusses different types of economic systems, including pure market economies, pure command economies, traditional economies, and mixed economies. It describes the key characteristics of each type of economy, such as how economic decisions are made regarding what to produce, how to produce it, and who receives the goods and services. The document also briefly covers different political philosophies like capitalism, socialism, and communism that influence economic systems.
Food chains
Plants harness energy from the sun through photosynthesis and are called producers. Many animals eat plants as vegetarians and are primary consumers. Carnivores and omnivores that eat these primary consumers are secondary consumers. A basic food chain has producers (plants), primary consumers (herbivores that eat plants), and secondary consumers (carnivores that eat primary consumers).
Food chains
A food chain describes how energy passes from one organism to another. Producers like plants get energy from the sun, consumers eat producers or other consumers, and decomposers break down waste. A food chain shows a single path of energy transfer, while a more complex food web links multiple food chains together as predators can have multiple prey.
Habitats and foodchains
An ecosystem refers to all the plants and animals that live together in an environment and interact. Different ecosystems can exist close together and some animals belong to multiple ecosystems. All living things are adapted to their environment and habitats in ways that help them survive, such as how seals are adapted to aquatic life. Food chains show what organisms eat other organisms or plants, and start with producers like plants. When one part of a food chain is disrupted, it can negatively impact other parts of the ecosystem. Human activities like habitat destruction and pollution are common reasons why some animal populations become endangered or extinct.
How to build your own country
This document provides instructions for students to create their own imaginary country. It outlines 3 steps: 1) establishing the country's identity by naming it, designing a flag and motto, and creating a map; 2) developing the country's government, constitution, laws, and services for citizens; and 3) assembling the materials into a final product and being prepared to present it. The goal is for students to think creatively about how to govern a country and meet citizens' needs using what they have learned about civics.
Antelope canyon alexa a
Antelope Canyon is a slot canyon located in Page, Arizona. Flash floods over thousands of years carved narrow passageways through the soft sandstone, creating vertical winding walls. In 2010, tourists were stranded by flash floods in the upper canyon, though all were eventually rescued with no fatalities. Guided tours through the restricted canyon are led by authorized Navajo guides and cost between $35-$82 per person.
Bryce canyon in utah prisila
Bryce Canyon is located 270 miles northeast of Las Vegas in southwestern Utah. It is known for its unusual rock formations called hoodoos, which are thin spires of rock formed by erosion. Bryce Canyon offers many outdoor activities like hiking, biking, fishing and horseback riding among the hoodoos. The park was established in 1928 to protect these unique formations.

- Mauna Loa is the largest active volcano in the world, covering over half of the Big Island of Hawaii.
- At over 13,000 feet tall, Mauna Loa has erupted 33 times since 1843, most recently in 1984.
- As a shield volcano, Mauna Loa has very gentle slopes built up over thousands of years by outpourings of low-viscosity lava.
Julio's petrified forest
The document discusses the petrified forest, which used to be an actual forest that lived over 200 million years ago. Due to geological forces, the trees in the forest became buried over time and their organic material was slowly replaced with minerals like quartz, forming fossils of the petrified wood that can be seen at the location today. The petrified forest national park covers an area of over 85,000 square miles and contains many examples of petrified wood and other fossils from the ancient forest.
Marble canyon nevaeh
Marble Canyon is located in northern Arizona along the Colorado River canyon between Lee's Ferry and the Little Colorado River. The average depth of the canyon is about 1 mile and its width is around 600 yards. In 1956, two planes collided over Marble Canyon, killing everyone on board. One unusual pink snake lives in Marble Canyon and matches the local rock colors. The canyon was formed over time from erosion caused by rainfall deepening the canyon walls.
Mount lemmon ilda
Mount Lemmon is located in the Coronado National Forest in Arizona, with a summit elevation of 9,159 feet. It was named after botanist Sara Plummer Lemmon, who first trekked to the top of the mountain with her husband and E.O. Stratton in 1881. The small town of Summer-Haven is located near the summit, close to Ski Valley. After a large aspen fire, most of the cabins in Summer-Haven were destroyed but later rebuilt.

The mountain was formed by tectonic plate movement and features hiking trails as well as cabins rebuilt after a 2003 forest fire.
Petritifed forest damian
The petrified forest is located in northeastern Arizona on Navajo and Apache lands. Petrified wood is a fossil where the organic remains of trees have been slowly turned to stone through a process that replaces the wood with quartz and chalcedony minerals, preserving the tree's original structure like tree rings. This petrification process typically results in the wood being replaced by quartz chalcedony minerals.
Rio grande brandon
The Rio Grande flows from Colorado through New Mexico and Texas before emptying into the Gulf of Mexico. It forms the border between the United States and Mexico for over 1,000 miles. Rio Grande National Park focuses on this section of the river, where tourists can sail and see signs of past civilizations like pueblos built by the Ancient Pueblo People known as the Anasazi near the river using adobe construction.
White mountains william
The White Mountains in Arizona are a scenic mountain range along the Arizona-New Mexico border known for their forests and lakes. Locals refer to them simply as "The Mountains." Camping and fishing opportunities abound in the high altitude area, which features landscapes more typical of the Pacific Northwest, with several stocked lakes available for recreation.
Yellowstone aratt
Yellowstone National Park is located primarily in Wyoming and is home to the Yellowstone supervolcano. The supervolcano has erupted massive explosions over 2.1 million years ago and could potentially wipe out 2/3 of the United States if it were to erupt again. Yellowstone is also famous for its geothermal features like geysers, containing the majority of the world's most famous geysers, including Old Faithful. Yellowstone was established as the first national park in the United States in 1872 and sees over 3 million visitors each year who come to experience the natural beauty and geology of the park.
Zion diego
Zion National Park is located in southern Utah. The park was formed when layers of sediment deposited over thousands of years were lifted to form mountains, which were then eroded by rivers to create deep canyons. Zion features unique rock structures like arches and bridges, and is home to a variety of plants and animals adapted to the desert climate. Popular activities include hiking, biking, and rock climbing, but the park faces issues with overcrowding.
23. future government
The politics of the world are constantly changing due to technological advancements, environmental issues, and global events, calling into question the roles of governments and levels of citizen involvement.
