    Wanda Stuart Oral History Interview

    No full text
    This is an oral history with Wanda Stuart, a resident of Laurel Park in St. Petersburg, Florida. During this interview, Stuart describes her family, what it was like growing up, and the various changes made to the Laurel Park and Campbell Park neighborhoods, including the removal of the gas plant. She recollects the number of churches that have remained and her education and friendships in this area. In addition, Stuart encourages listeners to look up their family histories and genealogy for the sake of familial preservation

    Legislation and Persuasion; Portable Antiquities and the Limits of the Law: Some Scottish and British Perspectives

    No full text
    This chapter will continue the difficulties and challenges in translating heritage legislation from the bare facts of the law to a system that can operate successfully when set against the distinct challenges encountered when groups other than heritage professionals have an interest in accessing the archaeological record. In Scotland, as is increasingly the case elesewhere in Europe, these issues revolve around the growing popularity of metal detecting

    The cathedral chapter of St. Maarten at Utrecht before the revolt

    No full text
    The cathedral chapter of Utrecht was by 1500, save for the offices of dean and provost, a largely self-recruiting body of conservative-minded, wealthy and well-connected men, accustomed to playing a leading role in the spiritual and temporal governance of the diocese and prince-bishopric. The transfer of the temporalities of the bishopric to the emperor Charles V in 1528 reduced the temporal role of the Chapter, but did not alter its conservative interpretation of its privileges or the financial and social strength with which to defend them. By 1550 this wealth had underpinned successful opposition to two schemes to encroach on the financial wealth of the Chapter, first by its provost and then by the bishop. The dominant role of the Chapter in the Estates of Utrecht ensured that the latter was in matters of taxation among the most turbulent territories in the Hapsburg Netherlands. The Chapter's links with interested parties in the upper echelons of the bureaucracy in Brussels enabled it to sabotage significantly Philip's scheme of new bishoprics in the Netherlands and so preserve its position. This study argues that while the Chapter successfully defended its interests against the Hapsburg government, its truculent conduct aroused antagonism in the central government towards the provincial Estates of Utrecht. This created tensions which predisposed a sufficient number of the ruling elite in the province, including the First Estate, the clergy, to turn to the prince of Orange and to rebel Holland after 1576 and ultimately to adhere, albeit with reservations, to the Union of Utrecht in 1579.</p

    Transcript (12, 40 pages) of two interviews by Matt Driscoll with Stuart Ruckman on April 9, 2010, and July 7, 2011Ruckman (b. 1966) was born in Salt Lake City, Utah. Stuart shares how his family, particularly his father, played a significant role in introducing him to the outdoors. Some of his initial explorations included a hike to the top of Mount Olympus when he was five years old, backpacking trips in the Wasatch and Uinta Mountains, and a successful summit attempt on the Grand Teton when he was twelve. Stuart discovered technical rock climbing due to the influence of his older brother Bret, five years Stuart\u27s senior. Bret learned under Dennis Turville, a well-respected Salt Lake climbing instructor. Stuart shares his observations on the Salt Lake climbing community of the late 1970s and 1980s, noting the intimacy of the community, while also pointing out the significant influence of a handful of climbers, including Merrill Bitter, Les Ellison, and Brian Smoot. He briefly describes the proliferation of new-route development in the Wasatch during his first decade in climbing. In collaboration with his brother Bret, Stuart published comprehensive guidebooks on climbing in the Wasatch Mountains. Stuart\u27s contributions as a first-ascensionist and co-author of Rock Climbing the Wasatch Range attest to his lasting impact on Utah climbing. Interview is part of the Outdoor Recreation History Project. Interviewer: Matt Driscol

    A computational fluid dynamic analysis of the effect of weld nozzle geometry changes on shielding gas coverage during gas metal arc welding

    No full text
    Three geometry changes to the inner bore of a welding nozzle and their effects on weld quality during gas metal arc welding (GMAW) were investigated through the use of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) models and experimental trials. It was shown that an increased shielding gas exit velocity increased the gas column’s stability and therefore its resistance to side draughts. Double helix geometry within the nozzle reduced the gas column’s stability by generating a fast moving wall of gas around a slow moving centre. A pierced internal plate initially increased the gas velocity, however, the nozzle was unable to maintain the velocity and the change produced gas columns of similar stability to a standard nozzle. A pierced end plate produced the best results, increasing the shielding gases exit velocity sufficiently to marginally outperform the standard 16 mm welding nozzle
