  • Historic Amusement Parks and Fairground Rides Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary
    Historic Amusement Parks and Fairground Rides Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary Historic England’s Introductions to Heritage Assets (IHAs) are accessible, authoritative, illustrated summaries of what we know about specific types of archaeological site, building, landscape or marine asset. Typically they deal with subjects which lack such a summary. This can either be where the literature is dauntingly voluminous, or alternatively where little has been written. Most often it is the latter, and many IHAs bring understanding of site or building types which are neglected or little understood. Many of these are what might be thought of as ‘new heritage’, that is they date from after the Second World War. With origins that can be traced to annual fairs and 18th-century pleasure grounds, and much influenced by America’s Coney Island amusement park of the 1890s, England has one of the finest amusement park and fairground ride heritages in the world. A surprising amount survives today. The most notable site is Blackpool Pleasure Beach, in Lancashire, which has an unrivalled heritage of pre-1939 fairground rides. Other early survivals in England include scenic railways at Margate and Great Yarmouth, and water splash rides in parks at Kettering, Kingston-upon-Hull and Scarborough that date from the 1920s. This guidance note has been written by Allan Brodie and edited by Paul Stamper. It is one is of several guidance documents that can be accessed HistoricEngland.org.uk/listing/selection-criteria/listing-selection/ihas-buildings/ Published by Historic England June 2015.

  • The Questions Concerning Technology by WB Round 3
    The Questions Concerning Technology By WB Round 3 1. Lewis Noble's take on this device launched the “perfume craze” period in the history of these machines. Simeon Denham received the first patent for a completely realized version of this machine. The company that became Dixie Cup got started as a maker of disposables used in early versions of these devices. In response to some of his employees being jailed for selling copies of Thomas Paine's The Age of Reason, Richard Carlisle invented one of these machines. Stores that were designed around these machines were pioneered by Horn and Hardart. In America, the commercial use of one form of this technology was made popular by the Adams Gum company as a part of their Tutti-Frutti gum business. Stores that are almost entirely based around these machines are called automats. One modern example are Redbox installations. For 10 points, name these machines that when supplied with coins or dollar bills will give out soda and snacks. ANSWER: Vending Machine [ anti-prompt on automat; anti-prompt on gumball machine; or automated retail machine] 2. This approach is done in Haskell through Bird Style lines and Sweave is used to bring this approach to R. The most common manifestation of this paradigm uses the at symbol and a name blocked off by greater than and less than symbols to denote the start of a new module. The Ctangle program allows one to create more conventional code from this type of code. WEB is one subtype of this, which is implemented in CWEB.

  • Scream Machines! for Many People, There Is Only One Reason to Go to an Amusement Park
    Scream Machines! For many people, there is only one reason to go to an amusement park. The roller coaster. Some people call it the "scream machine," with good reason. Have students explain their roller coaster experiences. Encourage students to describe ▪ How fast they went ▪ How high they went ▪ How far they went ▪ How long the ride lasted Ask questions, such as the ones below, to stimulate discussion. Write a list of phrases that describe students’ experiences and responses on the board. ▪ What do you remember most about your first roller coaster ride? What do you like (dislike) about roller coaster rides? (Give students time to share their personal experiences. You may wish to list student responses in two columns on the board labeled Likes and Dislikes.) ▪ How fast do you think roller coasters go? Why would one roller coaster go faster than another? (Help students see that the coaster’s height, especially the height of the first drop, is the main factor affecting maximum speed.) ▪ About how long do you think a roller coaster ride lasts? Why would some roller coaster rides last longer than others? (Guide students to see that the height of the coaster and the length and steepness of the track may all influence the duration of the ride.) 1 For students who have never ridden one, give them a first person point of view by watching one or more videos (ex. Cyclone Front Seat on-ride POV Coney Island Astroland Cyclone Front Seat on-ride POV Coney Island Astroland, or Leviathan Front Seat on-ride HD POV Canada's Wonderland,).

The most common interactive theme park rides are about game-based interaction, competition, and scoring, rather than about story, character, and plot. Research into cognitive science, interactivity, narrative, immersion, user interface, theming and other fields of study illuminated some potentially useful guidelines for creating compelling experiences for park guests.

  • Compare the Russian Slides from 17Th Century to Roller Coasters As We Know Them Now. What's the Same? What's Different? What Is
    Unit E1 • Potential and Kinetic Energy READING: WHY WE LOVE ROLLER COASTERS The modern roller coaster descended from towering ice slides in Russia, which first appeared in the 17th century. Referred to as “Russian Mountains,” these slides provided entertainment throughout Russia, though they were most prevalent in the area that would later be known as St. Petersburg. Rising up between 70 and 80 feet in the air, the slides were made from lumber that was covered with several inches of ice and offered riders an exhilarating 50 degree drop. The slides were reinforced with wooden supports and had steps up the back for riders to climb before speeding down on sleds. Popular with the upper class, some slides were ornately decorated. An enthusiastic fan of the slides, Catherine the Great reportedly had several built on her property. Historians debate who deserves credit for adding wheels and creating the roller coaster as we know it. Some contend that the Russians invented the first roller coaster, which was constructed LaMarcus Thompson’s Switchback Railway (1884) in the Gardens of Oreinbaum in St. Petersburg in 1784. Other historians argue that the French are responsible for the first roller coaster. Les Montagnes Russes à Belleville (The Russian Mountains of Belleville) was built in Paris and had many of the features we associate with the modern roller coaster, including guide rails, cars with wheels that lock to the track, and plenty of speed. It is also likely that Paris was home to the first permanent loop track, built in 1846 from an English design, and referred to as a “centrifugal railway.” It was constructed with a wheeled sled, which held one person and traveled through a 13-foot-high vertical loop.
