The Utility Tactical Transport Aircraft System (UTTAS) competition was an effort by the U.S. Department of Defense to replace the aging Bell UH-1 Huey helicopter. Three companies submitted proposals and two, Boeing and Sikorsky, were given the go ahead to develop prototypes. The Boeing Vertol YUH-61 depicted on the button ultimately lost out to Sikorsky's UH-60A. Two of the three Boeing aircraft produced currently reside at the US Army Aviation Museum in Ft Rucker, Alabama.

Black text surrounded by a red Solar Lobby logo on a yellow background. The logo is an illustration of the sun made up of people with their hands joined and raised above their heads.

The Solar Lobby was an environmental political lobbying group that evolved from Sun Day, an international celebration of solar energy that took place on May 3, 1978. It was a coalition of solar groups, environmentalists, farm, labor, and industry organizations. Its primary funding came from small membership contributions. Initially, the Solar Lobby's highest priority was to influence President Carter’s solar message, hoping to set a high, but achievable goal, capable of “inspiring a substantial national effort”.  They laid out a “Blueprint for a Solar America” which aimed to get 25% of the nation’s energy from solar power by the year 2000.

President Carter was enthusiastic in his support of solar energy, however his successor, Ronald Reagan, wasted no time slashing the solar energy budget in favor of nuclear and coal. In 1986 Solar Lobby merged with the Center for Renewable Resources forming the Fund for Renewable Energy and the Environment.

Evansville, Indiana native Robert D. ("Bob") Orr—a Republican—was elected in 1980 as Indiana's 45th governor. He defeated incumbent John A. Hillenbrand II and served from 1981-1989. His tenure as governor is primarily associated with the restructuring of the Indiana school system. 

Prior to his gubernatorial win, Orr served for 12 years as a member of the Indiana State Senate. He was widely popular due to his pushes for economic development and plans to reorganize the state's tax structure. After serving two terms as governor, in 1990 Orr was appointed by then-president George H.W. Bush as the ambassador to Singapore.

By the late 1940s to early 1950s the medical industry had produced multiple studies that demonstrated clear, adverse health risks that were a result of smoking. After recommendations from the American Cancer Society, the American Heart Association and other medical societies, and despite lobbying by cigarette and tobacco companies, the United States Surgeon General released a 1964 report confirming the damaging health repercussions associated with smoking cigarettes. In the following decades a number of anti-smoking campaigns and programs were created, including the Smoke Stoppers program which was trademarked in 1997. Smoke Stoppers was a twenty-one day medical program designed to help patients stop smoking through the use of behavioral methodologies with daily guides.

The expression “think outside the box” means to think creatively, outside of the bounds of traditional orthodox methods. It first started to gain significant use in the 1960s and 1970s, especially in the business world, but its eventual overuse transformed it largely into a cliché. The expression is believed to have its ultimate origins in the 1914 puzzle book, Loyd's Cyclopedia of 5000 Puzzles, Tricks, and Conundrums (With Answers). The ‘Nine Dots Puzzle’ contains a square of nine dots, and asks the player to connect all these dots using only four straight lines. In order for this to be accomplished, the player’s lines have to extend beyond the confines of the dotted box.

Gripe, o influenza, es una infección viral del sistema respiratorio. Vacunas cada ano pueden protegerlo contra la gripe. Otras acciones protectoras son lavar los manos, cubrir la tos, y quedarse en casa cuando está enferma. Hasta los 1930s, cuando vacunas para gripe estaban desarrolladas y administrados a soldados de la militaría estadounidense, vacunación generalizada ha estado la forma mejor de prevenir enfermedades en personas individuales y mantener bajo control la propagación del virus. Organizaciones por la salud de todo el mundo, los gobernalles, las benéficas, y los comercios, distribuyan vacunas de gripe para combatir el virus y crecer comunidades saludables.

Flu, or influenza is a viral infection of the respiratory system. Vaccines every year can protect one against the flu. Other protective actions are hand-washing, covering coughs, and staying home when sick. Since the 1930s, when the flu vaccination was originally developed and administered to soldiers in the US miliary, widespread vaccination has been the best way to both prevent individual illness and keep spread of the virus in check. Government, non-for-profit, and private health organizations worldwide distribute flu vaccines to fight the flu and nurture healthy communities.

Medical providers agree: breastfeeding is best practice for feeding infant children. Barring rare situations, breastfeeding provides only benefits to the long-term health of both infant and parent.

Education and support for breastfeeding parents is usually the purview of pediatricians and family care doctors and nurses, midwives and doulas, as well as trained lactation consultants. Non-profit organizations such as La Leche League International as well as informal parental networks also provide support to encourage nursing.
