House Redistricting Town Hall FAQ House Redistricting Town Hall FAQ 1. Will the meeting be livestreamed or recorded and how can I watch? Yes, redistricting town halls will be livestreamed when possible. The ability to livestream is dependent on the reliability of the internet access and technological capabilities of the host facility on the day the meeting takes place. House livestreams are accessible here, no signup required. This is the same link where the public can currently watch live proceedings of House committee meetings and floor sessions. When livestreaming is not possible or disrupted, a recording will be made available at the same link under the “recordings” page a few days after the meeting. At this time, we anticipate that livestreaming will be available at the Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Tahlequah, Lawton, Ardmore and Woodward meetings. 2. Will there be an opportunity for the questions and comments by the public? There will be a time set aside for Q&A and public comment following a brief presentation. A standing microphone will be placed at the center of the room for attendees to approach and ask questions. Alternatively, when a standing microphone is not available or practical, a staff member will bring a microphone to the person asking questions. 3. Do I need to register to attend? If so, how do I do that? No registration is required. Every meetings is open to anyone who would like to attend and intended to be an opportunity for the public and local stakeholders to learn more about redistricting, make suggestions and have their voices heard throughout the process. 4. I cannot attend, how can I still participate, ask questions, provide public input, learn more about the process? The meetings are not the only chance for public comment. The House has been accepting feedback and comments on communities of interests, local preferences and other thoughts on the redistricting process since September of 2019 when the [email protected] was created and announced. The public is also invited to visit the House Redistricting Website to learn more about the process. Any public testimony from a town hall meeting, email sent to [email protected] or comments submitted through the House Redistricting Office contact page will be shared with the committee and summarized in a report for the committee to consider. 5. Where can I find a list of meeting dates and locations? In collaboration with the Senate, there are over 18 unique opportunities to attend a meeting. An interactive map showing House and Senate meetings across the state can be found here or a list can be found here. 6. What are the pandemic protocols for the town hall meetings? As guests of our host facilities, we will be following the COVID-19 protocols set by each location. Masks or face coverings may be mandatory at certain locations and are required at meetings held at the Capitol. .

  • Sharing a House but Not a Household: Extended Families and Exclusionary Zoning Forty Years After Moore
    SHARING A HOUSE BUT NOT A HOUSEHOLD: EXTENDED FAMILIES AND EXCLUSIONARY ZONING FORTY YEARS AFTER MOORE Solangel Maldonado* INTRODUCTION Moore v. City of East Cleveland1 is undeniably a victory for extended families that do not conform to the nuclear family form because the state can no longer prevent them from living together in one household. In particular, it is a victory for families of color, immigrants, and economically vulnerable families who are more likely to reside with extended family members for cultural and economic reasons. Justice Lewis Powell, writing for the plurality, recognized the American tradition of extended family members living in one household,2 and Justice William Brennan (joined by Justice Thurgood Marshall) further noted that the extended family “remains not merely still a pervasive living pattern, but under the goad of brutal economic necessity, a prominent pattern—virtually a means of survival— for large numbers of the poor and deprived minorities of our society.”3 Like most decisions, however, Moore is not without its critics. As my students point out each year, the Court’s distinction between the City of East Cleveland’s narrow definition of a family and ordinances that allow anyone who is related by blood, marriage, or adoption to live together in a single-family household4 suggests that the Moore Court would exclude de facto parents, cohabiting partners, or close friends sharing a home from its definition of family. A definition of family that requires blood, marriage, or adoption is unnecessarily narrow and is not consistent with modern conceptions of family. * Professor of Law, Seton Hall University School of Law.

  • Arch Hall: from Alexandria to Fairfax to Street Name
    Office of Historic Alexandria City of Alexandria, Virginia Out of the Attic Arch Hall: from Alexandria to Fairfax to street name Alexandria Times, May 26, 2011 Image: Arch Hall, 815 Franklin Street, around 1937. Photo, Library of Congress. riginally located on Franklin Street between South Columbus and South Alfred streets, the home known as Arch O th Hall was built in the late 18 century. It served as a town residence for Lewis Lawrence, his wife Nelly Parke Custis, and their children when they stayed in Alexandria and not at Woodlawn, their large estate near Mount Vernon. The house, initially a one-story frame structure measuring 24 feet by 50 feet, had an attached frame kitchen at the east end. The front elevation faced south and had five bays. The center doorway had an arched transom and sidelights, and the center hallway had an arched ceiling. Later expansion included a lowered basement and renovation of the attic which resulted in relocation of the chimney. Arch Hall had several owners and tenants after being sold out of the Lawrence Lewis family. In the early 1930s, it was the site of Arch Hall Antiques but shortly after this photograph was taken around 1937, new owners, the Swetnams, restored the property and modernized it, installing a hot water heater, an oil furnace and new kitchen appliances. After the restoration was complete, Arch Hall became a popular stop on local historic home tours. In the fall of 1950, the structure was removed from its location at 815 Franklin Street, and over the next year, it was reconstructed at a new location near Belmont Bay in Fairfax County.

  • THE DENISON ARCHWAY” Or “THE ENGINEERING ARCH”
    “THE DENISON ARCHWAY” or “THE ENGINEERING ARCH” The famous “Engineering Arch” in the New Engineering Building (later called West Engineering and then West Hall) was the contribution of an engineering professor, Charles Denison. When he learned that there was a serious problem of how to design the building without interfering with the diagonal walk of the campus, he prepared a sketch showing the diagonal walk passing through an archway in the building. The New Engineering Building - 1903 The Arch was named “The Denison Archway” Later, known as the “Engineering Arch” Charles Simeon Denison Charles Simeon Denison’s nickname was ‘Little Lord Chesterfield,’ for he was the Beau Brummel of the University. His slightly curly hair matched the shine on his boots. His ties matched his socks. His wardrobe contained unnumbered suits of clothes and overcoats for all kinds of weather. The collars of some of his topcoats were of expensive fur. He had all kinds of haberdashery, including more than forty shirts. He did not have these laundered in Ann Arbor, but sent them each month to Chicago for ‘proper’ laundering.” (Mortimer Cooley, Scientific Blacksmith, p. 96) “He was a good man, and he came of a long line of good men. The family traces its lineage from Antenor, King of the Cimbri, of the Trojan nobility, born about 1239 B.C., down through Charlemagne and a royal line to Captain George Denison of Stonington, Connecticut, who came to America in 1631, and who achieved distinction for services rendered in Cromwell’s army and in our own Indian wars.” (The Michigan Technic, 5/1914) Charles Simeon Denison received a B.

  • Wall Erosion in 2D Hybrid Hall Thruster Simulation
    Wall Erosion in 2D Hall Thruster Simulations IEPC-2005-189 Presented at the 29th International Electric Propulsion Conference, Princeton University, October 31 – November 4, 2005 Emmanuelle Sommier*, Michelle K. Allis†, and Mark A. Cappelli¶ Stanford University, Stanford, CA, 94305 A 2D radial-axial hybrid PIC model has been developed in order to better understand the interactions that occur in Hall thrusters between the plasma and the channel walls. The thruster model geometry corresponds to the Stanford Hall Thruster and the computational domain extends from the anode, through the interior channel, and into the near field plume region. The discharge simulation was carried out for a discharge voltage of 200V and a discharge current of 2.5A. In order to assess thruster degradation due to sputtering, a model of the channel wall erosion process has been added to the simulation as the result of the interaction with the walls of energetic ions and energetic neutrals. The significance of ion- neutral collisions and sheath effects in the erosion process has been studied. These simulations are then used as the basis for computational models that adjust the geometry of the thruster and predict the erosion of the insulator channel walls due to continued sputtering. It was observed that, as the wall is eroded, the erosion rate decreases with time, and that the erosion of the wall reaches 2 to 3 mm after 2000 hours. Nomenclature Br = radial magnetic field e = electron charge E = electric field E* = crossover energy Ee = energy of a primary electron

    2021-2022 GUIDE TO RESIDENCE LIVING THE OFFICE OF RESIDENCE LIFE AND HOUSING ON THE COVER… Miles Bibb Hall In 2020 Miles Bibb Hall was officially renamed from North Hall to Mary Miles Bibb Hall in honor of alumna Mary Elizabeth Miles (class of 1843). Miles became the first black woman to graduate from a public normal school in the U.S. and has been called a pioneering abolitionist, teacher and journalist. She was married to antislavery lecturer and abolitionist Henry Bibb from 1847-1854. During this period she opened schools and worked on the Voice of the Fugitive newspaper her husband founded, and remained active in the antislavery movement where they worked to set up an endpoint of the Underground Railroad in Canada. After Bibb’s death Miles married Isaac Cary and continued to teach and run her school until the 1870’s. RESIDENCE LIFE & HOUSING MISSION STATEMENT: As an office within Student Development at Framingham State University, Residence Life and Housing strives to: • Support student access to educational opportunities by providing quality on-campus housing options. • Create and maintain a caring and disciplined residence hall community that supports academic pursuit, learning and student success. • Foster a climate that is responsive to the developmental needs of resident students and which values and promotes inclusive excellence, diversity, anti-racism, responsible citizenship, and intellectual inquiry. • Recognize and honor the traditions and heritage of Framingham State University. 2 CONTENTS On the Cover… ............................................................................................................................................................2
