Five of New England's six states (excepting Vermont) restructured their electric industries and initiated the development of competitive retail electric markets in the late 1990s. As much as 45% of state-wide load has been captured by competitive suppliers, virtually all of which is industrial and large commercial load. On Feb 18, 2009, the Department of Public Utility Control (DPUC) approved with modifications the resource assessment and procurement plans that had been submitted by the state's electric distribution companies and reviewed by the Connecticut Energy Advisory Board. The 2007 Energy Act had also directed the DPUC to order decoupling of an electric distribution company's revenues from the company's sales, through rate design changes or a sales adjustment clause or both, at t...

After 2.5 million pages of documents and over 1,200 individual interviews, the 9-11 Commission issued a final report on our security shortcomings before September 11, 2001. No one will dispute that we were unprepared for the terrorist attacks, but the Commission's findings help pinpoint our weaknesses, and assert that September 11th was a "failure of policy, management, capability and, above all, a failure of imagination. As the Commission reminds us, we are safer today than we were on September 11th, but we are not safe. Their recommendations provide us the opportunity to re-evaluate our homeland defense three years after the horrific attacks. Above all the vice chairman called for a need of unity within the government and within the world. The report recommends that we integrate all ...
What emerged in the hearings and subsequent report, issued on July 22 nd of this year, is a picture of an outdated intelligence system originally built to win the Cold War. As the 9/11 Commission noted, this system of agencies - the CIA, FBI, and National Security Council - operated on a "need to know" basis rather than a "need to collaborate" basis. This crippled our ability to see the full picture of the new enemy at hand, one that defies national boundaries and traditional methods. The report also explored other breakdowns in the defense of our country such as inadequate airport screening to failures in screening visa applicants to lack of communication between key agencies like the FAA and FBI. The Commission found that Congress, among others, shared in the blame by not providing ad...
This paper applies the directives and guidelines found in the Boyer Commission Report (1998) entitled, "Reinventing Undergraduate Education: A Blueprint for America's Research Universities" to create a curriculum assessment tool. As an auditing framework, this tool will assist the undergraduate curriculum planner to determine (in)adequacies in current marketing programs. As a planning framework, this tool will assist in formulating the short-term and long-term strategic planning for an evolving marketing curriculum. The author first reviews the history and content of the Boyer Commission Report (1998), a result of a three-year investigation by the National Commission on Educating Undergraduates in the Research University. Seven of Boyer's ten directives, along with associated guiding st...
We thought it would take about six months. Three years later we don't have anything. Three years later we're told we might have a pilot program. Three years later it takes seven months and we'll decide who's going to get the card. That's unacceptable. I hope this committee will accelerate the transportation worker card. Obviously, it's also been said all these differences between cargo and passenger operations need to stop.
