Competition In Atlantic City

The Battle of the Atlantic was the longest lasting battle of World War II. The Battle was to control the Atlantic Shipping Lanes and lasted from September 3rd 1939 to May 8th 1945, mainly in The Atlantic Ocean, but later spread to the United States and The Caribbean Sea. The Battle of the Atlantic was originally fought by Britain and Canada against Germany until 1940 when the Italians joined the German side. In 1941 the United States joined Britain and Canada in the battle, leading to the defeat of Germany. A significant even that lead up to The Battle of the Atlantic was when U-30 (U-boat 30) attacked Athenia, the passenger liner, a British auxiliary cruiser, within just hours of the British declaring war on Germany, killing 112 civilians that were aboard. These ships were the ones the submarines were told not to attack by The German Navy. This is what some say was the beginning of The Battle of the Atlantic. The Germans were also humiliated from World War One and felt they had not deserved to lose and have the harsh treatment put upon them, as outlined in The Treaty of Versailles.

Social action describes actions taken by an individual to make a difference in a community. The most rewarding type of social action is through education. That is exactly what Heather Perez, archivist for the Atlantic City County Library, intended to do through a new exhibit called, “The Atlantic City Experience: La Ciudad Atlántica.” Perez, a former archivist for the Smithsonian, has been working at the library for over nine years. Her passion for history and knowledge, guided her to Atlantic City. Understanding the life of an archivist, Perez wanted the opportunity to interact with people and find historical facts about their families, ancestors, and cultures. She stated that she was “drawn to helping people find things.” The Atlantic City County library gives her those opportunities everyday. Her dedication to helping people learn through history, made her a great candidate for this assignment.

While the attendees of the Charlottetown Conference all came to one final decision, there was definitely more than one point of view within the room. After failing to receive a contribution from the Province of Canada to a major railway from Halifax to Quebec (Intercolonial Railway), the three Maritimes colonies had organized the Conference in order to achieve a union between the three of them, helping the colonies to receive more political power as well as overseas investments. There were vast areas of land that the Prince Edward Island delegates were looking to sell from landlords to people who lived outside the colony. The landlords who owned these plots of land rarely fulfilled all of the requirements that were provided. The Island settlers

On April 12, 1861, the war began when the Confederated attacked Union soldiers at Fort Sumter, South Carolina. The Civil War for the next four years was battled out in thousands of different locations. They ranged from southern Pennsylvania, Texas, Florida Coast, New Mexico, and many places in between. It was a wide range of land to fight but mainly was fought on Southern Ground. The majority of the battles that took place during this time were in the States of Tennessee and Virginia, but also in the Atlantic Ocean battles took place. The war ended in the spring of 1865 where the last battle was found at Palmito Ranch in Texas on May 13, 1865. This war was defined as, “a violent conflict that pits states against one or more organized non-state

World War two was one of the most important events that happened in history. It consisted of many battles that took place in Europe or in the Pacific that decided the fate of the war. The Battle of the Atlantic was a an important battle because it decided who would control the Atlantic trade routes during the war. If the Axis Powers got a hold of these trade routes then Great Britain (Germany 's greatest threat) would have suffered and it would have gave Germany a chance to win the European Front. One other example of a decisive battle was the Attack on Pearl Harbor. That battle forced the U.S. to enter the war and it essentially marked the beginning of the end to the War. If the United States had never been drawn into the war then Germany

I've been reading about Atlantic City's history recently, checking out books from the library like Boardwalk of Dreams, The Northside : African Americans and the creation of Atlantic City, and Casino gaming in Atlantic City : a thirty year retrospective, 1978-2008. I'm trying to figure out why the South Inlet looks like a 50 year old urban renewal project that ran out of cement 40 years ago, while the casinos have raked in $120 billion dollars over the last 35 years. Riding down Pacific Avenue near the lighthouse you see whole blocks cleared out with an occasional house sticking out, some new construction, and a few stray tourists who got lost and wandered off the Boardwalk.

The concept of mental accounting can be applied to understand why it is difficult to find a taxi when the weather is bad. The article “Mental Accounting Matters”, uses the example of New York City taxi drivers to explain the mechanism of the taxi business. The drivers rent out the cars for 12 hours a day based on fixed fee. “They are then entitled to keep all the revenues they earn during that half-day” (Thaler 201). Therefore, the drivers must decide during which time of the day they want to rent out the cab and also decide how many hours they want to drive the cab (they cannot drive for 12 hours continuously). Based on the above example, it can be extrapolated that most cities have same business plan and involves drivers making key decisions.
