  • Glossary Glossary
    Glossary Glossary Albedo A measure of an object’s reflectivity. A pure white reflecting surface has an albedo of 1.0 (100%). A pitch-black, nonreflecting surface has an albedo of 0.0. The Moon is a fairly dark object with a combined albedo of 0.07 (reflecting 7% of the sunlight that falls upon it). The albedo range of the lunar maria is between 0.05 and 0.08. The brighter highlands have an albedo range from 0.09 to 0.15. Anorthosite Rocks rich in the mineral feldspar, making up much of the Moon’s bright highland regions. Aperture The diameter of a telescope’s objective lens or primary mirror. Apogee The point in the Moon’s orbit where it is furthest from the Earth. At apogee, the Moon can reach a maximum distance of 406,700 km from the Earth. Apollo The manned lunar program of the United States. Between July 1969 and December 1972, six Apollo missions landed on the Moon, allowing a total of 12 astronauts to explore its surface. Asteroid A minor planet. A large solid body of rock in orbit around the Sun. Banded crater A crater that displays dusky linear tracts on its inner walls and/or floor. 250 Basalt A dark, fine-grained volcanic rock, low in silicon, with a low viscosity. Basaltic material fills many of the Moon’s major basins, especially on the near side. Glossary Basin A very large circular impact structure (usually comprising multiple concentric rings) that usually displays some degree of flooding with lava. The largest and most conspicuous lava- flooded basins on the Moon are found on the near side, and most are filled to their outer edges with mare basalts.

  • Retired United States Congressmen from the State of Michigan
    Retired United States Congressmen from the State of Michigan Submitted by Joshua Koss To The Honors College Oakland University In partial fulfillment of the requirement to graduate from The Honors College 1 Abstract Conventional wisdom in the study of members of Congress, pioneered by Richard Fenno, argues that one of the chief goals of elected officials is their reelection. However, this theory does not account for those who willingly retire from Congress. Who are these former members and what activities do they pursue once they leave office? To answer the first question, this project analyzes data on retired members of Congress from the state of Michigan regarding the years they served, party identification, and their age of retirement. The second and perhaps more interesting question in this research, examines the post-congressional careers of former members of Congress and whether their new line of work has any connections with their time in Congress through committee assignments and issue advocacy. In addition to quantitative analysis of the attributes of former members and their post-congressional careers, a qualitative analysis is conducted through a comparative case study of retired Senator Donald Riegle and former Representative Mike Rogers. This aspect of the study more closely examines their respective career paths through congress and post-congressional vocations. 2 Introduction In 1974, Democratic Congresswoman Martha Griffiths announced her retirement from the House of Representatives citing her age, 62, as a key motivation for the decision. After this, Griffiths would serve two terms as Michigan Lieutenant Governor before being dropped off the ticket, at the age of 78, due to concerns about her age, a claim she deemed “ridiculous” (“Griffiths, Martha Wright”).

EDITED BY: Wayne Bailey [email protected] 17 Autumn Lane, Sewell, NJ 08080 RECENT BACK ISSUES: http://moon.scopesandscapes.com/tlo_back.html FEATURE OF THE MONTH – JANUARY 2016 GALILAEI Sketch and text by Robert H. Hays, Jr. - Worth, Illinois, USA October 26, 2015 03:32-03:58 UT, 15 cm refl, 170x, seeing 8-9/10 I sketched this crater and vicinity on the evening of Oct. 25/26, 2015 after the moon hid ZC 109. This was about 32 hours before full. Galilaei is a modest but very crisp crater in far western Oceanus Procellarum. It appears very symmetrical, but there is a faint strip of shadow protruding from its southern end. Galilaei A is the very similar but smaller crater north of Galilaei. The bright spot to the south is labeled Galilaei D on the Lunar Quadrant map. A tiny bit of shadow was glimpsed in this spot indicating a craterlet. Two more moderately bright spots are east of Galilaei. The western one of this pair showed a bit of shadow, much like Galilaei D, but the other one did not. Galilaei B is the shadow-filled crater to the west. This shadowing gave this crater a ring shape. This ring was thicker on its west side. Galilaei H is the small pit just west of B. A wide, low ridge extends to the southwest from Galilaei B, and a crisper peak is south of H. Galilaei B must be more recent than its attendant ridge since the crater's exterior shadow falls upon the ridge.

Dembowski, F.R.A.S. - [email protected] Elton Moonshine Observatory - http://www.zone-vx.com 219 Old Bedford Pike (Elton) - Windber, PA 15963 FEATURE OF THE MONTH - AUGUST 2006 RHEITA E Sketch and text by Robert H. Hays, Jr. - Worth, Illinois, USA March 5, 200 - 01:15 to 01:45 UT 15cm Newtonian - 170x - Seeing 7-8/10 I sketched this crater and vicinity on the evening of March 4, 2006 after observing two occultations. This feature is located amid a jumble of craters south of Mare Fecunditatis. This is an elongated crater that appears to be the result of at least three impacts. The north and south lobes are about the same size, but the southern lobe is definitely deeper. The central portion is about the size of the north and south lobes combined. There are some bits of shadow on the floor, but I saw no obvious hills or craters there. I have drawn the shadowing within and around Rheita E as I saw it. There is an obvious ridge extending westward from the south lobe. The crater Rheita F is adjacent to the south lobe of Rheita E, and has a strip of shadow parallel to the ridge from Rheita E. Rheita M is the large, shallow crater east of Rheita E's south end, and Rheita N is the small, shallow pit between them. Stevinus D is the slightly smaller, but deeper crater north of Rheita M.

    A Woman's Nation Changes Everything Acknowledgements “The Shriver Report” has many partners. Our media partners include NBC Universal, Women at NBCU, Telemundo Network & Stations, and TIME. Our technology partner, Hewlett-Packard, our economic empowerment partner, Goldman Sachs 10,000 Women, and our model employer partner, Deloitte LLP, give the project substantive reach. In addition, Visa, The Catherine B. Reynolds Foundation, PG&E, iVillage, USC Annenberg Center on Communication Leadership and Policy, and the Berkeley Center on Health, Economic & Family Security at UC Berkeley School of Law provided for a national footprint of this report. From Maria Shriver This book is filled with facts, and here’s one more: This report wouldn’t even exist without Karen Skelton. She pushed this project from the very beginning. She spearheaded it, massaged it, shepherded it—in short, she made it happen. We’ve been working together for six years, and while Karen may labor behind the scenes, there’s nothing behind-the-scenes about her. She’s a brilliant politi- cal strategist, writer, attorney, talent scout, and leader of women and men—and a spectacular mother and friend. She juggles policy, political clients, polls, and prose, and still finds time for yoga and church. She makes normal multitaskers look like they’re standing still. Leslie Miller—who also jumped in before we had a plan or partners—is a veteran communications strategist with enormous talents that enabled us to expand the reach of the project. Leslie is the calm in the storm. She takes the whirlwind of moving pieces, people and targets and creates order and direction.
