It is a quiet place where students can come to study or do homework without distraction. Oft en, students can be found reading in comfortable silence on the couch, or spreading out their homework on the large table that gives students room to work without feeling crowded. Th e north wall is painted with chalkboard paint for those students who need a cre- ative outlet during study breaks, or who want to share their favorite motivational quotes to spark inspiration in others.

  • Terrestrial Resonance: Exploring Earth Through Dance
    TERRESTRIAL RESONANCE: EXPLORING EARTH THROUGH DANCE A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF DANCE by Jennifer L. Conley May 2014 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Joellen Meglin, Advisory Chair, Dance Dr. Karen Bond, Dance Dr. Dorothy Merritts, Franklin and Marshall College, Earth and Environment Dr. Kariamu Welsh, Dance Dr. Edward Flanagan, External Examiner, Music Studies © Copyright 2014 by JenniferL.Conley All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT The geologic theory of plate tectonics, sometimes referred to as “the dance of the continents,” proposes a vision of Earth as dynamic body in motion that is constantly shifting and altering its form. Geophysical research during the 1950s and 1960s, especially in relation to Harry Hess’s seafloor spreading hypothesis, Fred Vine and D. H. Matthews’ geomagnetic reversal hypothesis, and J. Tuzo Wilson’s classification of new faults in Earth’s crust, established enough scientific evidence to suggest a viable model of this dance of the continents. This led to the geoscientific community widely accepting the theory of plate tectonics by the end of the 1960s. The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate how the idea of Earth as a dynamic body in motion can be connected to the experience of one’s own body in motion and in movement practice. Emerging from my work as an artist and an educator, this research analyzes the creative processes and the phenomenological essences of two geologically inspired dances, and develops a pedagogical application of geosomatic movement practices in an undergraduate course entitled Dancing Earth, Dancing Body.

  • CODE WORDS for OVERHEAD ALUMINUM ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS
    Draft 4, distributed Nov 23, 1998 editorial corrections Dec 10th, 1998 editorial corrections Jan 12th, 1999 CODE WORDS for OVERHEAD ALUMINUM ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS SEVENTH EDITION January 1999 Aluminum Association Code Words FOREWORD For many years manufacturers of electrical conductors have assigned code words to their products to aid in identifying the different types and sizes of conductors in catalogs, orders, in- voices and other production and sales records. As the number of different types and sizes of conductors increased over the years, the number of code words increased until by 1960 more than 1,200 such words were in use. In some instances the same words came to be used to designate more than one conductor. With more new constructions, new types of insulation, different tempers and other variations in the offing, there was a potential need for many more code words. Recognizing this situation, the Technical Committee on Electrical Conductor of The Aluminum Association's Electrical Technical Division in 1960 initiated a study aimed at reducing the number of code words required for these products. During its study the Subcommittee considered several different systems. Some would have accomplished the desired reduction in number of code words but were considered too complicated for practical use. The system finally adopted retains the code words now in use but provides for designating variations in construction, temper, and type of covering or insulation by the use of suffixes to existing code words, thus greatly reducing the number of new code words that otherwise would be required in the future. The conductors referenced in Tables 1 through 47 are manufactured in accordance with applicable ASTM Specifications.

  • Chapter Ten Venus and Mars
    Q-CD vol. 2: Chaos and Creation, Ch. 10: Venus and Mars 255 CHAPTER TEN VENUS AND MARS From the brow of Zeus, sang the Greeks, sprang Pallas Athene -- fully armed and with a shout [1]. She was cometary Venus -- fiery-faced, owl-eyed, helmeted and horned, with a long gown and hair trailing behind. Meanwhile, in Mesopotamia the Akkadians were also chanting hymns to Venus, going here by the name of Inanna:[2] By night she sends out light like the Moon does. At noonday sends out light like the Sun does. The mistress of Evening whose largeness is until the limit of Heaven... The Holy light that fills the Heavens. Inanna who shines as far as the Sun. These words, along with the symbols of Inanna (Figure 31) part the curtains upon “a lady who needs no introduction to you,” as a master of ceremonies would say. Many scholars deny that it could happen; yet no astral event of the ancients was so well reported as the career of the glowing and devastating comet and proto-planet Venus [3]. For nearly a thousand years it raged through the heavens periodically, encountering first Earth, then Mars; then Jupiter; then Mars again. It periodically -- every half century -- threatened the Earth and sometimes repeated, less harshly, its first devastation of the planet. The age of Venusia lasted from about 1450 to 700 B.C. endured, that is, until the comet Venus lost its cometary appendages and became a hot, young planet circling the Sun for all the world like an ordinary planet is supposed to behave.
