Cask ale - Serving cask ale. 1  Cask ale in pubs is usually served with a beer engine or handpump, which is used to siphon the beer from the cellar. 2  A small flip tap and a short spout is the standard neck for dispensing cask ale. 3  It is also considered proper to dispense beer directly from the cask, as in pubs which have a tap room rather than a cellar.
The first American SPCA was started in 1866 in New York City. There are now SPCAs all over the U.S., and indeed, all over the world. SPCA International was founded in the U.S. in 2006. The mission of our organization is simple but vast: to advance the safety and well-being of animals.
HCA was founded in 1968, in Nashville, Tennessee by Dr. Thomas F. Frist Sr., Dr. Thomas F. Frist Jr., Jack C. Massey, and Henry Hooker. The first hospital that HCA owned was Park View Hospital, near downtown Nashville. The small group of founders worked out of a small house not far from Park View for the first few years of operation. In 1969, HCA conducted its initial public offering (IPO) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
