July - August 2014 Visit us on the Web at www.cityofbowie.org Page 3 City Welcomes Two New Department Directors The City of Bowie welcomes a 30-year veteran of the United States Coast Guard to lead its Public Works Department. George Stephanos assumed the reins of one of the City’s largest departments on June 2, 2014 after a long career managing facility maintenance and public works organizations for the Coast Guard. Since 2009, Mr. Stephanos was Director of the Coast Guard’s Headquarters Relocation Project. In that role he supervised every aspect of the project to move the Coast Guard‘s headquarters to the Department of Homeland Security campus in Washington, DC. Prior to that, he served the Coast Guard as Commanding Officer of the Integrated Support Command in St. Louis, as Executive Officer of the Coast Guard Navigation Center, as Deputy Commander, Telecommunications and Information Systems Command, and as Public Works Officer at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy in New London. Mr. Stephanos has most ably served his country and the Coast Guard for 30 years in a variety of engineering, logistics and public works positions. The City is excited to have him as a member of its management team. He is a licensed professional engineer, with a Master of Science Degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Maryland in College Park. He replaces James Henrikson who led Bowie’s Public Works Department from 1986 until his retirement in February 2014. The City is also happy to announce the addition of Vanetta Pledger to lead the City’s Information Technology Department. Ms. Pledger assumed the helm of this department on June 23, 2014 after serving as the Director of Information Technology for Orange County, Virginia and holding several positions of increasing responsibility with the City of Alexandria Virginia. Most recently, she served as Alexandria’s Network Management Division Chief, where she led efforts to improve the reliability, efficiency, performance, and security of the government’s internal and external systems. Her back- ground is diverse and relevant, and includes hands-on experience in all of the major focuses of a for- ward thinking municipal IT department. The City is pleased to welcome Ms. Pledger to its manage- ment team. She is a graduate of George Mason University and earned a Master of Science Degree in Information Technology Systems from George Washington University in 2005. She replaces Robert Boller who led the IT Department for almost 20 years before his retirement in January 2014. Take Steps to Be Prepared for Medical Emergencies Being prepared for emergencies means not only having water and flashlights handy when a storm knocks out power to your home, it can also mean having some basic medical knowledge to help a loved one in the first critical minutes of a medical emergency. Investing a small amount of time to learn CPR or first aid can reap huge benefits. CPR can mean the difference between life and death for a victim of sudden cardiac arrest. Sudden cardiac arrest can be caused by heart attack, submersion/near-drowning, trauma, respiratory arrest, stroke and drug over- dose. The Bowie Volunteer Fire Department (BVFD) has made CPR training one of its important out- reach priorities. The Department offers a regular schedule of CPR courses throughout the year at the Pointer Ridge Fire Station. To register for a class, contact [email protected] or 301-390-8255.

Hoops and Coming of Age in Greek and Roman Antiquity1 Véronique Dasen Professor of Classical Archaeology, Fribourg University / PI ERC Locus Ludi. Abstract Ancient hoops, usually made of wood or metal, do not survive archaeologically, but literary and iconographic representations provide information regarding the materials used, ergonomics, as well as their symbolic and cultural values. Hoops were intimately associated with youth, especially male, and this paper aims at expanding the understanding of their collective, social and religious dimensions for boys and young men. In ancient Greece, the hoop was used in physical training at the palaestra and in the gymnasium. In Rome, it was associated with an idealized image of Greek athleticism and used in public spaces, such as the Campus Martius.

Jackson,a) Julia Huddy, Adam Baldoni, and William Boyes Department of Physics and Astronomy, Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013 (Received 29 July 2018; accepted 14 December 2018) We explore the steady-state rotational motion of a cylinder on a flat horizontal surface from a pedagogical perspective. We show that the cylinder’s inclination angle depends on its rotational velocity in a surprisingly subtle manner, including both stable and unstable solutions as well as a forbidden region with no (real) solutions. Moreover, the cylinder’s behavior undergoes a qualitative change as the aspect ratio decreases below a critical value. Using a high-speed video, we measure the inclination angle as a function of rotation speed and demonstrate good agreement with the theoretical predictions.

  • 2017-2018 Super-Ultimate Technical Standards
    2017-2018 Super-Ultimate Technical Standards Starting in 2007, Stefan Brancel (Class of ’10 and five-year coach) and I (Paul Arneberg) developed the idea of creating “Super-Ultimate Standards” to encourage current Ultimates to continue reaching for high goals even though they’ve already achieved the club’s entrance standards. At a minimum, these “Super-Ultimate Standards” are 500% (five times) the amount of the Ultimate Club Standards (UCS) for technical juggling. However, certain Super-Ultimate Standards (e.g., five clubs) are 1000% (or more) greater than the current UCS due to the average member’s skills, whereas Club Balance is “only” 400% greater since that UCS was increased by 500% (from 1:00 to 5:00) in 2012. Also, some Super-Ultimate Standards represent new categories not even found among the current UCS. These include 8 Balls; 9-12 Ball Passing; 10-12 ball bounce passing; 5 Ball Force Bounce; 6-8 Ball Drop Bounce; 7 Ring Qualify; 8 Ring Flash; 9-10 Ring Passing; 8 Club Back-to-Back Passing; 6 Clubs; 7-8 Ultimate Club Passing; 9-10 Club Passing. While this list is primarily for goal-setting, all Ultimate Club Jugheads should strive to achieve 25% of the Super-Ultimate Standards (12/47) by the end of their 2nd year in the club. Revised 5/27/17, PRA BALLS 1. 1000 catches with 5 Balls 2. 25 tricks with 5 Balls 3. 250 passes each with 8 Ball passing 4. 100 catches with 6 Balls 5. 70 catches with 7 Balls (quintuple qualifying) 6.
