Smith Corporation State: Wisconsin Location: Milwaukee Time Period: 1948-1950 Facility Type: Beryllium Vendor Facility Description: A.O. Smith studied methods for protecting beryllium carbide-matrix bodies for the Nuclear Energy for the Propulsion of Aircraft (NEPA) project. 2 - AC Spark Plug Also Known As: AC Spark Plug State: Michigan Location: Flint Time Period: AWE/BE 1946-1947; Residual Radiation 1948-March 1, 2011 Facility Type: Atomic Weapons Employer Beryllium Vendor Facility Description: AC Spark Plug performed beryllium work for the AEC. Records indicate that approximately 10 men worked with beryllium at this location in 1947. Information about AC Spark Plug is found in health hazard surveys, shipping reports and in a MED history. The company continued to receive hundreds of pounds of beryllium for use under government contract into the 1960's. It is possible that some or all of this beryllium was being used for other, non-AEC projects. There was also a small amount of thorium procurement related to AC Spark Plug in the 1946-1947 timeframe. During the period of residual contamination, as designated by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health and as noted in the dates above, employees of subsequent owners and operators of this facility are also covered under the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act. 3 - Accurate Machine & Tool Also Known As: Accurate Machine & Tool State: New Mexico Location: Albuquerque Time Period: 1987-2002 Facility Type: Beryllium Vendor Facility Description: Accurate Machine & Tool provides machine shop services to Sandia National Laboratory, California.

  • In This Issue Recognized As Philosophical at All
    A FORUM OF THE AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY • VOLUME XIII • NO. 5 • FALL 2017 The Author in Dialogue: Jimena Canales’s The Physicist and the Philosopher: Einstein, Bergson, and the Debate That Changed Our Understanding of Time by Robert P. Crease Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY ver 150 people attended the March meeting session devoted to Jimena Canales’s book, The Physicist and the Philosopher: Einstein, Bergson, and the Debate That OChanged Our Understanding of Time. It was the second of an annual series of FHP-sponsored sessions in which the author of a recent book on history of physics meets critics and commentators. The 2017 session was held on the third floor of New Orleans’ huge convention center. The atmosphere was relaxed and genial, with the papers and conversation directed, not at professional physicists or professional phi- losophers, but to those interested in the general subject of the nature of time, and assumed a modest shared knowledge of both physics and philosophy. Canales, from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and four other people spoke. Canales’s book was built around a 1922 episode in which Einstein and Bergson clashed about the nature of time; she discussed both the buildup to and the aftermath of the event, in which physicists and philosophers continued to display a lack of understanding for each others’ position. “The book has been more successful than I ever imagined,” Canales began. Part of the controversy, she continued, was fueled by Jimena Canales of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign physicists’ negative attitude towards philosophy, and she cited numerous examples.

Neverthe- less, the reel numbers and part numbers, appearing as they do both in this guide and as targets in the film, indicate the filmed location of the books, volumes, and chapters of this collection.

  • Carolyn Beatrice Parker: Scientist, Scholar, and American War Hero
    August 5, 2020 Dear School Board Members: Thank you for the opportunity to be involved in the choosing of a name for School #0031, formerly named J. J. Finley. As a committee, we recommend that School #0031 be named in honor of Carolyn Beatrice Parker: scientist, scholar, and American war hero. We are proud to make this recommendation after a deliberation that considered several hundred community-nominated names. Early Life Carolyn Beatrice Parker was born in Gainesville in 1917, during the Jim Crow era. Her father, Dr. Julius A. Parker was a physician who graduated from Meharry Medical College, the first medical school in the South for African Americans. Carolyn Parker’s maternal first cousin, Joan Murrell Owens was a marine biologist and was also one of the first Black women to complete a Ph.D. in geology. Six of Julius and Delia Parker’s seven children completed advanced degrees; a seventh child died at age 9. Carolyn Parker was educated in segregated public schools in Tampa, where she graduated from Middleton High School in 1933. She graduated magna cum laude from Fisk University with a bachelor’s degree in physics in 1938. Between 1938 and 1940, Ms. Parker taught high school in Gainesville, possibly at the historically Black Lincoln High School. However, her name does not appear in Albert White and Kevin McCarthy’s 2012 history of Lincoln High School, which highlights former teachers and includes lists of alumni. Several of Ms. Parker’s siblings attended Lincoln, including Julia Leslie (Parker) Cosby, who--in 1966--became the first Black woman to teach in Alachua County’s previously all-White schools, according to White and McCarthy.
