A 36-hour stopover at the Steuart Petroleum Co. terminal in Piney Point in late August to discharge the Falcon Lady's fuel cargo provided the touring op­ portunity for the Seafarers. Some 300,000 barrels of petroleum can be carried, aboard the 642-foot super­ tanker. The 37,000-ton vessel is one of four new ships planned by Falcon Carriers, the largest American- flag ships powered by diesel engine. The two 7,500 horsepower diesel engines of the Falcon Lady can reach a cruising speed of 17 knots. Scheduled for launching early next year are the Falcon Countess and the Falcon Princess. The Falcon Duchess is expected to be off the ways by October, 1972.

  • The Long Red Thread How Democratic Dominance Gave Way to Republican Advantage in Us House of Representatives Elections, 1964
    THE LONG RED THREAD HOW DEMOCRATIC DOMINANCE GAVE WAY TO REPUBLICAN ADVANTAGE IN U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ELECTIONS, 1964-2018 by Kyle Kondik A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Baltimore, Maryland September 2019 © 2019 Kyle Kondik All Rights Reserved Abstract This history of U.S. House elections from 1964-2018 examines how Democratic dominance in the House prior to 1994 gave way to a Republican advantage in the years following the GOP takeover. Nationalization, partisan realignment, and the reapportionment and redistricting of House seats all contributed to a House where Republicans do not necessarily always dominate, but in which they have had an edge more often than not. This work explores each House election cycle in the time period covered and also surveys academic and journalistic literature to identify key trends and takeaways from more than a half-century of U.S. House election results in the one person, one vote era.

Today, Congress fulfills its Article I, Section 9 obligation through a yearly appropriations cycle shepherded by the House and Senate Appropriations Committees.
