	1986 EDSA Revolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The EDSA Revolution, also referred to as the People Power Revolution and the Philippine Revolution of 1986, was a mostly nonviolent mass demonstration in the Philippines.
		Some people have a problem with labelling this event a revolution; for many, a revolution is the violent overthrow of a reigning government.
		Among the conditions cited are the overall slow growth of the Philippine economy, especially compared to that of other nearby Southeast Asian countries, the essentially unchanged political atmosphere in the country, and the general feeling of worsening living conditions, especially among the poor sectors of society.

		The amount of power produced is directly related to the area of the solar panels exposed to sunlight.
		The power produced by the panels is in the form of direct current (DC), which has to be converted to alternating current (AC) to power most common household appliances.
		Because solar power is generated only at certain times (and not at all at night), the challenge for all domestic solar systems is to ensure power is available all the time, not just when the sun shines.

		You may have learned in ninth-grade civics class that lawmakers are the people's servants, temporarily entrusted with power that the people can take back at any time.
		The charismatic California governor has launched a full-scale attack on redistricting abuse, demanding that the power to draw election maps be taken from the Legislature and turned over to a committee of retired judges.
		People's Advocate, the organization that spearheaded the effort to recall former Governor Gray Davis in 2003, has already begun collecting the 600,000 names on petitions it would take to bypass the Legislature and submit a redistricting initiative directly to the voters.

		Life for these people would be infinitely better if they had abundant, reliable, affordable electricity -- for lights, heat and refrigeration; hospitals and clinics, schools, shops and factories; water purification and sewage treatment; and a tiny fraction of all the other modern conveniences and necessities we take for granted.
		Thus, blocking the construction of centralized power projects -- as not being "appropriate" or "sustainable" or "socially responsible" -- is to condemn billions of people to sustained poverty and disease, and sentence millions to premature death.

	Power to the People! by Butler Shaffer
		The message these people were intent on communicating could be summarized as "thank goodness we have planners to deal with this problem," not realizing that it was the arrogance of central planning, a faith in the power grid system, that plunged millions of people into darkness.
		My understanding of the power grid system is that independent generating plants are incorporated into regional grids, under the management of a private central authority that directs excess electricity from one plant to other areas operating at or near capacity.
		Electric power suppliers could also learn from the practice in which millions of private computers are voluntarily connected to allow for the sharing of "downtime" so that research data (e.g., in medical fields) can be more quickly analyzed.

		Nuclear power is said to generate large amounts of energy without producing the greenhouse gases - such as carbon dioxide - that contribute to global warming.
		In a nuclear power station of a similar size, virtually all of the waste is contained in about 27 tonnes of spent fuel that is not released into the environment.

		Stressed-out power grids are vulnerable to breakdowns should unusually hot weather afflict New York, New England and the Southwest.
		Competition for the surplus power that is available for utilities to buy from other regions is vigorous, so prices on the unregulated spot market could spurt, adding 10% and possibly more to residential bills.
		Con Edison, the electric supplier to New York City, says it has a bigger power surplus now than it did last year, although the reliability council says the city's outlook depends on whether some new generating capacity is ready before the hot weather sets in.

		The wholesale power market—where SDG&E, for example, buys its power—is a mix of regulation and deregulation, with the state in the process of figuring out a firm policy.
		To meet the growing demand for power, the utility’s priorities are, in order: emphasizing energy efficiency by using less than we now do; accelerating purchases of renewables; and building new power plants and transmission lines—the nuts and bolts of electricity that no one wants near his or her back yard.
		As with other power plants in the state, San Diego’s two new plants will be fired by natural gas, a commodity increasingly in short supply.

		It would take only a few years for the new legislators to become as jaded with power as their Pork Chop predecessors had been, but that was time enough to create a new constitution that reserved ultimate power to the people through the right of petition and initiative.
