...HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Born in the Carolinas in 1898, Pepsi-Cola has a long and rich history. The drink is theinvention of Caleb Bradham (left), a pharmacist and drugstore owner in New Bern, NorthCarolina. In the late1890's, he had been experimenting withCoca andKola extracts in thesyrup form. By mixing this syrup with carbonated water, he produced a very pleasingbeverage that not only tasted good but also made his customers and friends feel good. Hepromoted it as a cure of dyspepsia (indigestion). Initially called Brads Drink by his local friends, the drink was formally titled PEPSI COLAin 1898. By 1902 the syrup was so popular that Caleb was devoting most of time in the preparation, packaging, marketing, advertising, and overseeing thedistribution of it to other pharmacies. His sales increased rapidly and in1904 he boughtthe Bishop Mill and converted it into his bottling plant for Pepsi Cola. In 1907, hepurchased adjoining land and built a three-story addition to the factory to serve as office space for his new company. By the end of1909 Caleb Bradham had250 franchises in24 different states, hisbusinesses continued to grow till1920 when volatile sugar prices caused the beginning ofthe rapid decline in his fortune. Bankruptcy was declared in March,1923 and the PEPSIformula passed through the series of folding companies until1931, when Loft CandyCompany in New York purchased it.

...ones? Are we just overreacting? There are in fact a large number of different toxins that are put in toys when they are made. One in three toys have harmful toxins in them. Phthalates is one of those toxins. Phthalates is used in toys that are made of plastic; it helps in the softening process. Although it may seem harmless, phthalates can cause cancer in children, it can also cause disrupt in hormone systems, and even spur an early onset of puberty in children. (Boulard, 2008) Phthalates can be found in teething rings, pacifiers, also flexible plastic toys, (Fisher, 2012) and it is also found in sleep masks. Mercury is another toxin found in toys, it is found in a large number of toys, but mainly in bath toys. Mercury is bad for any one that comes in contact with a large amount of it, or even just a little bit of it. For children it can damage their kidneys and also their nervous system. (Boulard, 2008) Cadmium is also a toxin in toys, it is used in all painted toys, and also lunch boxes. Cadmium can damage kidneys; also it can damage the lungs and the intestines. (Boulard, 2008) There is also Bisphenol-A, which is used in the polycarbonate plastic, which is used for baby bottles, (Boulard, 2008) and also the lining of plastic food containers. It can lead to hyperactivity in children, and can also impair their ability to learn. Lead is a big one used in children toys. Lead can be in anything from painted toys to backpacks.

...21st century, many local governments, school systems, transit agencies, and even airlines pass law regulations against practicing of wearing saggy pants. Most federal states have banned the practice of some people that might want to show their underwear. In fact, some movies have influence on young men to wear their pants like that because some movies are only advised to mature adults.Secondly, I believe that some people that does this is related to some gang or group. Most rappers wear their saggy pants are showing young men that it is ok the be cool and to stand out. Even though some have belt, but refuse to wear them on and still wear they saggy pants. Belts are to be put on your pants to keep them from being loose or falling on your body. A lot of young men are taught to wear them at school because of the school rules about saggy pants. Most school codes require that you must wear a belt to class or be sent back home. In short, I believe that all kids with sagging clothing is violating school dress codes and in the court...

...worksheets used to complete the evaluation aided the team in locating common areas of non-sustainable practices relating to land, water, and air pollution. The three non-sustainable practices evaluated further are solid waste, and hazardous waste causing land pollution, hazardous waste causing water pollution, and gaseous waste causing air pollution. These areas are the most harmful to the immediate population, which includes the plant workers and the communities. Solid Waste and Hazardous Waste Causing Land Pollution One of the non-sustainable practices is adding to land pollution. Currently, off-spec materials are sent to the landfill (Apollo, 2012). In addition to this, scrap plastic managed as waste goes to the landfill (Apollo). The biggest problem is that plastic is not biodegradable. When plastic and off-spec products are sent to the landfill, breakdown occurs but at minimal rates and these take longer to biodegrade over time. To remain compliant with government regulations, Riordan Manufacturing is required to identify hazardous waste generated each month if it exceeds 2,200 pounds (Apollo, 2012). If Riordan Manufacturing’s plants generate products in excess of 2,200 pounds per month, a set procedure needs to be followed to ensure proper disposal (Apollo). Regulations are set to minimum standards, and Riordan Manufacturing should set its goals to achieve the higher standards regardless of how much waste is generated per month. One way of doing this is to set up specific...

...Conveyor belt From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search This article is about industrial conveyor belts. For information on the global flow of sea currents, see Thermohaline circulation. Point of contact between a power transmission belt and its pulley. A conveyor belt uses a wide belt and pulleys and is supported by rollers or a flat pan along its path. These conveyor structures contain belts for moving bulk sulfur from railcars to storage piles and from the piles to ships. A conveyor belt (or belt conveyor) consists of two or more pulleys, with a continuous loop of material - the conveyor belt - that rotates about them. One or both of the pulleys are powered, moving the belt and the material on the belt forward. The powered pulley is called the drive pulley while the unpowered pulley is called the idler. There are two main industrial classes of belt conveyors; Those in general material handling such as those moving boxes along inside a factory and bulk material handling such as those used to transport industrial and agricultural materials, such as grain, coal, ores, etc. generally in outdoor locations. Generally companies providing general material handling type belt conveyors do not provide the conveyors for bulk material handling. In addition there are a number of commercial applications of belt conveyors such as those in grocery stores. The belt consists of one or more layers of material. They can be made out of rubber. Many belts...

...Duty Belts Disability Management & Ergonomics University of South Florida Spring 2011 The public relies on the many individuals that take the oath to serve and protect. Corrections officers, highway patrol officers, road deputies and community police officers all wear a duty belt while performing their jobs. Road deputies patrol the roads and respond to incidents within the jurisdiction of the county lines. Highway patrol officers patrol roadways especially interstates and monitor speeding and other traffic infractions. Corrections officers provide safety during incarceration whether in the county jail, state or federal prison. Duty belts are worn by all officers during their shift eight, ten or twelve hour shifts. Officers get in and out of a car all day, chase offenders for a mile, and drag unconscious people out of burning cars while wearing an extra 10-15 lbs around the waist. A duty belt contains many tools that are required to maintain officer safety and protect the public; however, they have the potential to damage the musculoskeletal system especially the lower back and spine. Duty belts contain an under belt which is a nylon or leather belt that is inserted in the loop of the uniform pants. The over belt or duty belt is attached to the under belt with Velcro and carries the equipment. A standard duty belt contains a cuff case and two pairs of handcuffs, baton hold and a wooden or aluminum alloy baton, radio holder and portable FM transmitter radio...
