Brief administrative history The International Sanitary Bureau, precursor of the Pan American Sanitary Bureau, was established by the First General International Sanitary Convention of the American Republics held in Washington, DC., in 1902. The Bureau, "according to the resolutions adopted", consisted of a board of seven health officials, residing in five countries, who were assigned the responsibility for the receipt and distribution of information on health conditions in the American Republics and to formulate sanitary agreements and regulations so that quarantine requirements would be reduced to a minimum in respect of cholera, yellow fever, bubonic plaque, smallpox and "any other serious pestilential outbreak". These functions and responsibilities were adopted both by the Second Conference of American States (1901) and by the First General International Sanitary Convention.
Five other international sanitary conferences held in the Americas between 1902 and 1920 approved resolutions to the effect that the Bureau would undertake the investigation of outbreaks of communicable diseases, the facilitation of commerce through the improvement of sanitary conditions in the sea-ports of the American Republics, through sewage disposal, drainage of the soil, and the destruction of mosquitoes and other vermin. However, resources available at the time in terms of staff, office space, travel and other expenses were not appropriate to allow compliance with these Conference resolutions.

    introduction
    meetings eligibility ... the silver club BRIEF HISTORY OF THE CARIBBEAN SHIPPING ASSOCIATION By Michael S. L. Jarrett The need to establish an effective, broad-based Association to monitor, discuss and share information in support of the growth and development of shipping in the Caribbean was accepted in the 1960s when shipping interests realized that there was much to learn and emulate from the initiatives and strategies employed in neighbouring Caribbean territories to solve similar problems. Specifically, the revolutionary achievements by the Shipping Association of Jamaica (SAJ) in successfully negotiating with hostile unions for the mechanization of the Port of Kingston started a process where port interests across the Caribbean met to exchange ideas. Trinidad, Barbados and Bermuda were experiencing similar problems with their trade unions and delegations from the national shipping associations of these countries visited Jamaica within a short time of each other to discuss and learn from the achievements of the Shipping Association of Jamaica. These discussions forged a relationship between these national associations and in 1969 representatives from five national associations met in Port of Spain for an informal meeting to discuss labour contracts, labour practices and other problems affecting the shipping industry. The meeting was so useful, the group decided to meet again in six months.

    Geography
    Geography is the study of the locational and spatial variation in both physical and human phenomena on Earth . The word derives from the Greek words hê gê ("the Earth") and graphein ("to write", as in "to describe"). Geography is also the title of various historical books on this subject, notably the Geographia by Klaudios Ptolemaios 2nd century Geography is much more than cartography , the study of maps. It not only investigates what is where on the Earth, but also why it's there and not somewhere else, sometimes referred to as "location in space". It studies this whether the cause is natural or human. It also studies the consequences of those differences. Table of contents 1 History of Geography

    LATIN AMERICA-U.S. RELATIONS
    The histories of the United States and Latin America are intimately related. Consider both that St. Augustine (the oldest city in the United States), Pensacola, New Orleans, San Antonio, Santa Fe, and many others were once Spanish towns and that citizens of Hispanic background now form the second largest minority in the United States. The relationship has been accompanied by cultural and demographic exchanges that have profoundly influenced all of its participants. British colonization after 1607 was part of a "grand design" to wrest all the New World realms from Spain. The British soon converted their Caribbean colonies into sugar plantations worked by African slaves. The North American colonies were of less economic significance to this mercantilist development, participating mainly as suppliers of foodstuffs and lumber to the Caribbean and as its competitors in the production of cotton and tobacco. Continental militia, sharing the same goals as the British, took part in wars with Spain. One of the benefits was the conquest of Spanish Florida in 1763, resolving years of border struggles with Georgia. But when the British continental colonies declared independence, it was with Spanish aid, and independence inspired Spanish colonials to revolt later. There were several uprisings, largely fueled by resentment over taxes levied to pay for Caribbean defense. The desire of Spanish colonial elites to separate was attenuated, however, when the 1791 Haitian Revolution was captured by its slaves. The loss of the strategic Haitian ports forced Napoleon Bonaparte to sell Louisiana for a trifle to the United States. The Americans, far from acknowledging their Haitian benefactors, joined the other slave powers in refusing to recognize Haitian independence.

    Key words: tsunami, Caribbean, tsunami history, mitigation, natural hazards
    INTRODUCTION: Tsunamis are not the major natural hazard in the Caribbean but they have the potential to produce a major disaster which can be mitigated with proper preparation. This history has reports on 56 tsunamis affecting the Caribbean in historic times. These have affected 22 countries and administrative areas including northern South America and Central America; these are listed in Table 1 . The record for the last hundred years lists 20 tsunamis or about one every 5 years. It contains information about tsunamis from several types of sources. Source mechanisms include tsunamis from remote sources (teletsunamis), landslide tsunamis, volcanic tsunamis, and tectonic tsunamis associated with trenches and with transform faults. Figure 1 shows that the locations affected by tsunamis include nearly the whole of the Caribbean region. This history was compiled mostly from published sources available internationally. Additional events and effects would likely be found by searching locally available sources.

    Chapter Eight
    Presidency of Ronald Reagan (22/22)
    Previous Page By giving Ronald Reagan an overwhelming election victory, the American public had expressed a desire for change in the style of the nation's leadership. Crises such as the taking of American hostages by Iran-and the failure of an attempt to rescue them-had contributed to a general perception that the Carter Administration was caught by events rather than directing them. In July 1979 President Carter failed to dispel that perception when he spoke to the nation about its "crisis of confidence" concerning the future. By contrast, Reaganas a campaigner and as Presidentexuded full-speed-ahead confidence in the United States, himself and his own conservative world view. Throughout his Presidency, he demonstrated the ability to instill in Americans pride for their country and a sense of optimism about the future. Several dramatic events during the first few months of the Reagan Presidency seemed to validate this new spirit. Within minutes of his taking the oath of office on January 21, 1981, following arduous negotiations by the outgoing Carter Administration, the remaining 52 American hostages in Iran were released and returned to a tumultuous national welcome. In March, Reagan survived an assassination attempt, and a month later, the United States successfully launched the first orbital flight of the reusable space shuttle Columbia, initiating a new era in space operations.
