Mi6WAN Network Presentation: Tonight's presentation preceded the business meeting. The presenter was the Macomb County ARPSC Emergency Coordinator, Paul Reinhardt, KC8BDK. Mi6WAN is an Internet Protocol (IP) based network that uses microwave, fiber and wireless connections for a high-speed point to point and point to multipoint network. The network links are measured in MBPS not bps like traditional ax.25 based amateur radio based networks. Dave, N8HUL, and Marty K8HVI, will have discussions with Paul to determine if the Mi6WAN network can provide internet access for the N8LC repeater.

The Repeater Fund has $599.42. Total Available $6516.58. The Youth Fund increased is due to the Christmas Party Radio raffle by Ralph, W8ROI. Treasurer's Report approved after a motion made by Rick, K8RWM, and seconded by Dale, K8RO. Old Business: Christmas Party. The Christmas Party was a great success. Cathy, KC8WNK, said that other locations are available for the Christmas Party but no one has any complaints with Sajo’s. The food, service, and party room is good. Gregg, N8GEO, said that if we change and want to go back, Sajo’s may have already booked the party room to someone else.

The MODE Summit began in 2013 as a joint project between three design professors, Andre Mūrnieks, Brian Stone and myself, Gretchen Caldwell Rinnert. Previous MODE Summits were held in South Bend, Indiana (2013), Dublin, Ireland (2015) and Columbus, Ohio (2017). Now in its fourth iteration, with an expanding committee and network, we are proud to share the 2019 conference proceedings. We would like to thank our many sponsors, as they have made this year’s summit possible. Our academic sponsors include Massey University and The College of Creative Arts (CoCA), The Ohio State University, Kent State University, Michigan State University, Brigham Young University, Lesley University, and Herron School of Art + Design. Our professional sponsors include Fox & Co. Design in Wellington, New Zealand, and The LHT Group in Columbus, Ohio. This year represents a change for MODE, as we are unveiling two new ways of participation. First, we are launching the MODE Society for educators. Our goal is to encourage motion design research by creating avenues for dissemination and collaboration. By advancing the theory and practice of Motion Design, we aim to create opportunities for new practices, curriculum, and work. 2 (MODE) Motion Design Education Summit 2019 Edited Conference Proceedings Second, for students, we have introduced MODE Fest, a motion simulate elements in an interplay of movement.

    CMS CRIB SHEET By Dr. Abel Scribe PhD Chicago Style is the style of formatting books and research papers documented in the Chicago Manual of Style (CMS), 2003, and Turabian’s Manual for Writer’s of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations, 2007 (both published by the University of Chicago Press). While sometimes reference is made to a “Turabian style,” this is simply the Chicago style applied to research papers. Revised Fall 2007. CMS Crib Sheet Contents Chicago Style & Usage Chicago Page Formatting Chicago End/Footnotes • Abbreviations & Acronyms • Title and Text Page • Authors & Books • Capitalization • Footnotes • Journals & Newspapers • Compound Words • Headings & Lists • Reports & Papers • Emphasis: Italics/Quotes • Bibliography & Tables • References & Documents • • Numbers & Dates Table Notes Chicago Bibliographies • Quotations The CMS Crib Sheet is one of a family of style guides available at www.docstyles.com. Chicago Style and Usage Dictionaries. “For general matters of spelling, Chicago recommends using Webster’s Third New International Dictionary and its chief abridgment , Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary . in its latest edition.. If more than one spelling is given, or more than one form of the plural . ., Chicago normally opts for the first form listed, thus aiding consistency. If, as occasionally happens, the Collegiate disagrees with the Third International, the Collegiate should be followed, since it represents the latest lexical research” (CMS 2003, 278). Abbreviations Abbreviations--other than acronyms/initialisms--are rarely used in the text, other than in tables, figure captions, in notes and references, or within parentheses. Follow these general rules: 1. Beginning a sentence. Never begin a sentence with a lowercase abbreviation. Begin a sentence with an acronym only if there is no reasonable way to rewrite it.
