    Guidebook: American Revolution UPPER HUDSON Bennington Battlefield State Historic Site http://nysparks.state.ny.us/sites/info.asp?siteId=3 5181 Route 67 Hoosick Falls, NY 12090 Hours: May-Labor Day, daily 10 AM-7 PM Labor Day-Veterans Day weekends only, 10 AM-7 PM Memorial Day- Columbus Day, 1-4 p.m on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday Phone: (518) 279-1155 (Special Collections of Bailey/Howe Library at Uni Historical Description: Bennington Battlefield State Historic Site is the location of a Revolutionary War battle between the British forces of Colonel Friedrich Baum and Lieutenant Colonel Henrick von Breymann—800 Brunswickers, Canadians, Tories, British regulars, and Native Americans--against American militiamen from Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire under Brigadier General John Stark (1,500 men) and Colonel Seth Warner (330 men). This battle was fought on August 16, 1777, in a British effort to capture American storehouses in Bennington to restock their depleting provisions. Baum had entrenched his men at the bridge across the Walloomsac River, Dragoon Redoubt, and Tory Fort, which Stark successfully attacked. Colonel Warner's Vermont militia arrived in time to assist Stark's reconstituted force in repelling Breymann's relief column of some 600 men. The British forces had underestimated the strength of their enemy and failed to get the supplies they had sought, weakening General John Burgoyne's army at Saratoga. Baum and over 200 men died and 700 men surrendered. The Americans lost 30 killed and forty wounded The Site: Hessian Hill offers picturesque views and interpretative signs about the battle. Directions: Take Route 7 east to Route 22, then take Route 22 north to Route 67.

How are emergencies at nuclear power plants classified? Radiation is energy, such as heat, light or radio waves, which moves through space or matter at high speed. It can be easily detected and measured using specialized instruments. In very large amounts, radiation can damage living cells. Radiation comes from many natural and common man- made sources. Radiation from the sun and stars, radon from bedrock, radioactive elements in the foods we eat and materials we use to build our homes all come from natural sources. These natural forms of radiation are part of what is called background radiation. Man-made radiation comes from sources such as X-rays, other medical procedures, microwave ovens and electric power plants. The effect of radiation on the human body is measured in units called millirems. The average background radiation exposure in this area is about 600 millirems per year. About 50% of exposure to radiation in the U.S. comes from natural sources; the other 50% comes from The federal government established four classifications man-made sources. for emergencies at nuclear power plants. In order from the least to most serious, they are: Sources of Radiation Exposure in the United States > An UNUSUAL EVENT indicates a potential problem with the operation of the plant.

Country and sector issues General Economic Context Between 1999 and 2001 Uruguay endured a prolonged economic recession that ended in a deep crisis in 2002. The slowdown was prompted by several external shocks: Brazilian devaluation (1999), foot and mouth disease outbreak (2001), and weak commodity prices and oil price increases. However, it was the Argentine debt, currency and financial crisis of 2002 that Public Disclosure Authorized triggered the crisis and output collapse in Uruguay. As a result, income inequality and unemployment rose (the latter increased from 11.4 percent in 1999 to 19.7. percent in late 2002), and the fiscal situation deteriorated (fiscal deficit increased from 1 percent of GDP in the 1990s to 4 percent in 2001). 1 Furthermore, a sharp devaluation of the peso in 2002 worsened public debt indicators because a large share of both domestic and foreign debt was held in dollars. The fiscal pressures exerted by the crisis together with a traditionally large participation of the public sector in the provision of infrastructure services, adversely affected their delivery and consequently, the competitiveness of the economy.

Key development issues and rationale for Bank involvement Public Disclosure Authorized Background Uruguay’s historically high level of economic and social development relative to the region, was further improved in the 1990’s due to a stint of steady economic growth during that period, where the average annual growth rate between 1990 and 1998 reached 3.6%.
