Uni International 300 N INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For illustrations that cannot be satisfactorily reproduced by xerographic means, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and inserted into your xerographic copy. These prints are available upon request from the Dissertations Customer Services Department. 5. Some pages in any document may have indistinct print. In all cases the best available copy has been filmed. Uni International 300 N.

Meadows 1985 To my dearest friend, B.J. and in memory of my mother ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many people have supported my pursuit of the doctoral degree. Without their encouragement my studies might not have been completed at all. Among those who have helped make it possible for me to fulfill this personal goal are the following people to whom I gratefully pay tribute. My good friend Brenda Stearns has been a sage and understanding counselor. My colleague and friend Mac Woody gave me thoughtful suggestions and was a wonderful resource. One of the kindest and most sensitive people to whom so many graduates are beholding is Nancy Graham, who solves all problems and lends a warm, very human dimension to the program. I am indebted to my rapier - witted friend Jim Finkelstein without whom my course of study would not have been initiated. Many thanks are due the participants in the study and Aladdin's Castle for their cooperation. My precocious informant, Dave, was an invaluable aid. My family has always been a positive and stabilizing influence in my life. Thanks Dad, Tuff, Darrell, and Mike. I am especially grateful to my dissertation committee: Ojo Arewa, whose genius and humanness formed the foundation of my work; Suzanne Damarin, whose keen intellect sharpened my outlook; Elisa Klein, whose brillance in interpreting Piaget enlightened my observations; and Ray Williams, my iconoclastic advisor and humanistic scholar, whose balance of affect and intellect shaped my world view and served as a model of academic excellence. I can't thank Betty and Lynn enough for helping me produce this document. They're word processing magicians. There are so many others who sustained me - all my wonderful friends and associates. Some of them have no way of knowing how they touched my life. I pay homage to them all. iv VITA Linda K.

  • A History of Video Game Consoles Introduction the First Generation
    A History of Video Game Consoles By Terry Amick – Gerald Long – James Schell – Gregory Shehan Introduction Today video games are a multibillion dollar industry. They are in practically all American households. They are a major driving force in electronic innovation and development. Though, you would hardly guess this from their modest beginning. The first video games were played on mainframe computers in the 1950s through the 1960s (Winter, n.d.). Arcade games would be the first glimpse for the general public of video games. Magnavox would produce the first home video game console featuring the popular arcade game Pong for the 1972 Christmas Season, released as Tele-Games Pong (Ellis, n.d.). The First Generation Magnavox Odyssey Rushed into production the original game did not even have a microprocessor. Games were selected by using toggle switches. At first sales were poor because people mistakenly believed you needed a Magnavox TV to play the game (GameSpy, n.d., para. 11). By 1975 annual sales had reached 300,000 units (Gamester81, 2012). Other manufacturers copied Pong and began producing their own game consoles, which promptly got them sued for copyright infringement (Barton, & Loguidice, n.d.). The Second Generation Atari 2600 Atari released the 2600 in 1977. Although not the first, the Atari 2600 popularized the use of a microprocessor and game cartridges in video game consoles. The original device had an 8-bit 1.19MHz 6507 microprocessor (“The Atari”, n.d.), two joy sticks, a paddle controller, and two game cartridges. Combat and Pac Man were included with the console. In 2007 the Atari 2600 was inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame (“National Toy”, n.d.).

Haunted, driving north, I watched the horizon gray over Oklahoma, the rim of fires drifting down from Manitoba. I stepped out hours later to the first cold of September, a season’s end. The magnolias were already old those last evenings, reflected in the watery light of summer rain. The air was dark with words. But this spring, a hymn heard through a distant window brought back the years before: The places where crepe myrtle blooms early and late, where old bells echo from a green Handel and Mendelssohn and all the music of Passover, where almost every lamppost has a name and shadows cross our days without erasing joy.
