  • The Glacial Geology of New York City and Vicinity, P
    Sanders, J. E., and Merguerian, Charles, 1994b, The glacial geology of New York City and vicinity, p. 93-200 in A. I. Benimoff, ed., The Geology of Staten Island, New York, Field guide and proceedings, The Geological Association of New Jersey, XI Annual Meeting, 296 p. John E. Sanders* and Charles Merguerian Department of Geology 114 Hofstra University Hempstead, NY 11549 *Office address: 145 Palisade St. Dobbs Ferry, NY 10522 ABSTRACT The fundamental question pertaining to the Pleistocene features of the New York City region is: "Did one glacier do it all? or was more than one glacier involved?" Prior to Fuller's (1914) monographic study of Long Island's glacial stratigraphy, the one-glacier viewpoint of T. C. Chamberlin and R. D. Salisbury predominated. In Fuller's classification scheme, he included products of 4 glacial advances. In 1936, MacClintock and Richards rejected two of Fuller's key age assignments, and made a great leap backward to the one-glacier interpretation. Subsequently, most geologists have accepted the MacClintock-Richards view and have ignored Fuller's work; during the past half century, the one-glacial concept has become a virtual stampede. What is more, most previous workers have classified Long Island's two terminal- moraine ridges as products of the latest Pleistocene glaciation (i. e., Woodfordian; we shall italicize Pleistocene time terms). Fuller's age assignment was Early Wisconsinan. A few exceptions to the one-glacier viewpoint have been published. In southern CT, Flint (1961) found two tills: an upper Hamden Till with flow indicators oriented NNE-SSW, and a lower Lake Chamberlain Till with flow indicators oriented NNW-SSE, the same two directions of "diluvial currents" shown by Percival (1842).

In this report we have looked at species populations and their habitats from a broad regional perspective, focusing on large-scale physical landscape features as the basic habitat units for protection and conservation. The following general information is provided to help understand the regional physical classification units that were used as the basis for grouping and delineating regional habitat complexes. Geomorphology, or physiography, is a distinct branch of geology that deals with the nature and origin of landlords, the topographic features such as hills, plains, glacial terraces, ridges, or valleys that occur on the earth's surface. Regional geomorphology deals with the geology and associated landlords over a large regional landscape, with an emphasis on classifying and describing uniform areas of topography, relief, geology, altitude, and landlord patterns. These regions are generally referred to as GEOMORPHIC or physiographic provinces or regions and have been classified and described in various texts for the northeastern region and for the United States as a whole.

The celebration, featuring games, rides, food and entertainment, starts at 2 p.m. and continues to 6 p.m. Free parking and shuttle rides from the back lot of Prosper High School will be offered from 1:30 p.m. until the last person is picked up. The Reflections will play from 4:15 p.m. until 6 p.m. The band was formed by merging the well-known acapella doo wop group “4 Ever Young” with instrumental accompaniment from a guitar, a bass, a saxophone, keyboard and drums. The result was the creation of a 1950s rock and roll revue in the spirit of the best known bands of the genre’s early days.

Italian Americans in Bronx Doo Wop-The Glory and the Paradox The appearance of the Green Book, a mass market movie where the Italian American main character doesn't want Black people fixing things in his house, but feels confident enough to school a Black classical musician on the music of "Little Richard" is a perfect opening for discussing the prominent- and ambivalent- role of Italian Americans in the growth of Urban Harmonic Music- sometimes known as "Doo Wop"- in the Bronx. A form of music that was first performed by black artists in the Morrisania section of the Bronx in the early 1950's, and popularized through hits like the Chords "Sh-Boom" and the Chantels "Maybe," it spread quickly into Bronx Italian American neighborhoods and led to scores of Italian Americans groups making records, and two Italian American singers, Dion DiMucci and Bobby Darin (Walden Robert Cossotto), becoming among the best known rock and roll stars of the later 50's.

    names, Vol. 57 No. 3, September, 2009, 162–174 Selling Decency and Innocence: Names of Singing Groups in the Malt Shop Memories Collection Margaret G Lee Hampton University, USA This study examines the names of sixty-fi ve male and female singing groups in the Malt Shop Memories collection and their economic, social, and cultural infl uences. Record companies’ efforts to sell the emerging rock’n’roll to teenagers of mid-1950s to mid-1960s affl uent America resulted in group names intended to reduce the negative attitudes toward the music. Non-threatening group names were designed to exude images of whole- someness and purity to appease parents and the public who regarded rock’n’roll as chaotic, vulgar, and the cause of America’s social ills. These names, refl ecting such ordinary categories as Birds and Animals, Place Names, Mystique and Wonder, and more, combined with a mandated dress code to sell an image of decency and innocence in the face of a rebellious new style of music. keywords Malt Shop group names, Rock’n’roll group names, Doo-wop group names, 1950s-60s singing groups, Rock music group names, Girl group names, Vocal group names Introduction and background Malt Shop Memories is a Time Life, 150-song, ten-CD collection of oldies classics by the original artists. Released in 2006, the collection encompasses the period, as described in its television advertisement, “between the birth of rock ‘n’ roll in the mid-50’s to the British Invasion of the mid-60’s [. .] when American pop music took the world by storm.” This was one of the most innovative and dynamic periods in America’s music history.
