Historic Wilson Farmstead: Anoka County, MN
No full textReport and presentation completed by students enrolled in ARCH 5672: Historic Building Conservation, taught by Todd Grover in fall 2017.This project was completed as part of the 2017-2018 Resilient Communities Project (rcp.umn.edu) partnership with the City of Ramsey. Ramsey is home to the historic Wilson Family Farmstead, which has been repurposed in contemporary times as a business called Plants and Things. Because the property on which the farmstead is located is on U.S. Highway 10 and may be impacted by future improvements to this transportation corridor, the City of Ramsey wanted an assessment of the building to determine if it is still structurally sound and historically significant. Students in Todd Grover’s Historic Building Conservation course conducted a building conditions assessment survey and recommended restoration and preservation treatments based on their findings. The students’ report and presentation are available.This project was supported by the Resilient Communities Project (RCP), a program at the University of Minnesota whose mission is to connect communities in Minnesota with U of MN faculty and students to advance community resilience through collaborative, course-based projects. RCP is a program of the Center for Urban and Regional Affairs (CURA). More information at http://www.rcp.umn.edu.Noormohammadi, Ali; Nystrom, Ali; Deacon, Catherine; Jensen, Steve. (2017).

Nonlinear influence of excess Mn on the magnetoelastic transition in (Mn,Cr)<sub>2</sub>Sb
No full textThe influence of excess Mn on the magnetoelastic ferromagnetic-to-antiferromagnetic transition Tt in the magnetocaloric compound (Mn,Cr)2Sb has been studied. With increasing excess Mn the magnetoelastic transition temperature for (Mn,Cr)2Sb initially increases and then decreases. This trend is accompanied by a strong reduction of the (Mn,Cr)Sb secondary phase. With increasing excess Mn a higher Cr content was found in the (Mn,Cr)Sb secondary phase in comparison to the matrix phase. This competition for Cr leads to a nonlinear dependence of Tt with increasing excess Mn at a fixed nominal Cr content. However, we observed that Tt depends linear on the c/a ratio for a wide range of temperatures from 170 to 350 K. A compositional diagram of the c/a ratio was constructed to assist the selection of (Mn,Cr)2Sb alloys with a desired transition temperature.RST/Fundamental Aspects of Materials and Energ

WILSON JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL Lethbridge, AlbertaTHIS YEARBOOK IS DEDICATED TO
MISS VERNA GRAY
Miss Gray first saw the light of day in the village of Wawanesa, Manitoba. While still a preschooler she and her family moved to Calgary and later to Lethbridge. She attended Westminster School and the Collegiate. After graduating from Grade Twelve she enrolled in a Homo Economics program at the University of Alberta in Edmonton. She interrupted her degree program to attend the Calgary Normal School.
Her life of teaching began in Fleetwood School where she taught grades two. three and four. Some of her summers were spent attending summer school and culminated in the awarding of the degree of Bachelor of Education to her.
Miss Gray then changed her subject field to that of Home Economics. She taught this to grades seven, eight and nine students in the gymnasium on the old Westminster School grounds. When the new Collegiate was built the program was moved into this building. Miss Gray had joined the staff of Hamilton but her classes were held in the high school.
In 1954. one year oftor Wilson Junior High was built. Miss Gray joined their staff and has remained with us teaching in the same field. She is very much interested in travel and reading. She is noted for her diligence and fairness. The students and staff of Wilson wish her many more years of teaching and respectfully dedicate this yearbook to her.G. R CASTLES

n COPRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Tis education forms the common mind.
Just as the twig is bent, the tree’s inclined.
Some of you may wonder why you must go lo school. You allend so that you will benefit to the greatest extent possible from living in such a great country as ours. Aristotle was once asked how educated men were superior to those uneducated. He replied, "As much as the living are to the dead." A great philosopher was quoted as saying, "\ consider a human soul without education like marble in the quarry, which shows none of its inherent beauties till the skill of the polisher brings out the colors, makes the surface shine, and discovers every ornamental cloud, spot and vein that runs through the body of it."
One of the most valuable results of all education is the ability to make yourself do the things you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not. This is one of the hardest things to do for man is a procrastinator - he likes to put oft doing things.
We live in a changing world. Our school year will be altered next term. New methods of teaching are being tried. New courses are being introduced. We are progressing. We must adapt or go the way of prehistoric animals. You can't stop change, just as you can't put the toothpaste back into the tube.
I wish all of you a very pleasant holiday and may your year be a successful one.
The "olden age lies onward not behind The pathwai/ through the past has led us up The pathway through the future will lead us on and higher.H E MAJOR

This year our senior team has been very successful.
Mr. Umeris, our coach, did a great job in getting us ready for the championship game against Paterson. During the season, our team managed to win five games out of the eight, losing two games to Catholic Central and a tie with Paterson. We thus won the league championship and proceeded on to play the final game for the city championship, which we won 2-1 over Paterson. Many thanks go out to the team who did a job well along with Mr. Umeris doing the school a great deal of honor.
Our junior team however did not do so well due to a bad first half season in which they lost three games, tied one, and managed to v/in one game. In the second half of the season they made a great comeback by winning three games and tying two. Making it to the finals, they played against Paterson losing the game by a score of 1-0.(maybe it was because they didn t have a team manager) Another fine coach, Mr. Cook, did a great job in preparing the team and just about pulling them through. It was a fine effort on the part of Mr. Cook and the Team.

This year track and field got started in January with the track club meeting three times a week indoors.
On Saturday March 1, 1969 a large contingent of athletes from the club participated in the Annual Lethbridge Herald Junior Indoor Track and Field Meet. Here we competed against athletes from Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia and Montana. Congratulations go out to Ken Shaskin who jumped 19T 62”
*1. 4.
in the long jump to establish a new provincial batam indoor record.
Our next competition was our own school track meet which was held on Friday May 23 .
Students placing first and second at our track meet went on to represent the school at the city track meet. Holly Tokariuk threw the shot put 2Sri" to break the previous mark of 26r 6". Cleo Psaltis bettered the record mark in the Midget Girls Triple Long Jump jumping 13 feet 10j inches better than the previous record of 13T 9i".
Wendy Stegan took a full second off of the old record in the girls 440 open by coming in with a time of one minute 10.7 seconds.
Brenda Schmidt won the 60 yard dash, the 100 yard dash, the running broad gump and came in second in the hop step and jump. Brenda as a result of these efforts was the individual winner in the junior girls division. Peter Shaw was the junior boys champion. Ken Shaskin captured the senior boys title.
We also captured the Senior and Junior Team Championships. The school tied for first place standing in the meet.BAND - GRADES 8 & 9

Surface Oxidation and Wettability of Fe–Mn and Fe–Mn–Si-Alloyed Steel After Annealing
No full textThe surface oxidation and wettability of Mn and Si-alloyed steel after annealing at different conditions are studied with scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and a so-called de-wetting method. After exposure at 950 °C for 1 hour in an Ar + 5 vol pct H2 gas atmosphere with dew points (DP) ranging from – 40 °C to 10 °C, oxides were observed along the grain boundaries or dispersed on the surface for the Fe–1.8 Mn steels while a continuous oxides layer was formed on Fe–1.9 Mn–0.94 Si steels (composition in weight fractions). The oxides formed at different DPs were predicted based on thermodynamic calculations. (Fe,Mn)O was formed on Fe–1.8 Mn steel at the whole range of DPs, while the oxide phase on Fe–1.9 Mn–0.94 Si steel depends on the DP. At low-DP SiO2 were formed and with increasing the DP (Fe,Mn)SiO3 or (Fe,Mn)SiO3 + (Fe,Mn)2SiO4 were formed and finally (Fe,Mn)2SiO4 were formed. An increase of the fraction of Fe in the oxide with increasing DP for both steels was observed with XPS analysis. As a measure for the surface wettability, the contact angle of Pb droplets on the annealed steels surfaces was determined with SEM and image analysis software. Also, the contact angle of Pb on pure Fe and on the Mn and Si alloyed steels free of surface oxides was measured for comparison. The results show that the contact angle of Pb on the steel surfaces after annealing decreases with increasing DP. This improved wettability with increasing dew point is related to the Fe fraction of the oxides formed on the surface.Team Kevin RossiTeam Maria Santofimia NavarroTeam Marcel Herman
Temperature-Dependent Microstructural Evolution of Al-Rich Medium-Mn Steel During Intercritical Annealing
No full textMedium-Mn automotive sheet steels require optimized heat-treatment processes to obtain benefits caused by strain-induced martensitic transformation of retained austenite (RA) during sheet metal forming or crash events. The intercritical annealing (IA) approach at different temperatures in a range of 640 °C to 800 °C is proposed in the study for a 5Mn hot-rolled medium-Mn sheet steel. The experiments were performed in terms of dilatometry. The analysis of the cooling curves allowed development of a new method for calculating the high-temperature phase equilibrium. The calculations were validated by modeling with JMatPro and experimentally verified by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The microstructure evolution was characterized using light optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), including electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). The quantitative determination of the fraction, morphology, chemical composition, and stability of the RA was done. Mechanical properties were determined by hardness measurements. The research showed a substantial influence of the IA temperature on the RA fraction and chemical stability and properties of medium-Mn Al-alloyed steel. At temperatures of 680 °C and 700 °C, the largest fraction of over 35 pct of stable RA was obtained, which does not transform to martensite during cooling.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Team Kevin Ross
Mn/Ca ratios of Ammonia tepida as a proxy for seasonal coastal hypoxia
No full text Climate variability has major implications for marine geochemical cycles and biogenic carbonate production. Therefore, past climate-driven changes in marine environments are often inferred from geochemical data of the marine carbonate archive. Proxy calibration studies are essential for the reconstruction of such past environmental changes. Here, we use the geochemical composition of living specimens of the benthic foraminifer Ammonia tepida at three sites in a seasonally hypoxic (oxygen concentration < 63 μmol/L) marine coastal system (Lake Grevelingen, the Netherlands) to explore the use of Mn/Ca as a proxy for coastal hypoxia. The study is based on samples from three stations along a depth transect, that show contrasts in the seasonal cycle of Mn 2+ concentrations in the pore water of the surface sediment. In general, the sediment and pore water geochemistry of the three stations in Lake Grevelingen show increased Mn 2+ concentrations in late winter/spring, combined with increased Mn refluxing in summer, which are due to cable bacteria activity and bottom water hypoxia/anoxia, respectively. Laser Ablation-ICP-MS (LA-ICP-MS) allowed a comparison of Mn/Ca ratios of different parts of the benthic foraminiferal test. Our results show that higher Mn/Ca ratios are registered at the deepest station, which experiences the longest and most severe seasonal periods of hypoxia/anoxia. Additionally, the signal preserved in the central part of the benthic foraminiferal tests, which is thought to reflect the entire calcification history of the analysed specimen, appears to be driven by high pore water Mn 2+ concentrations due to cable bacteria activity in late winter/spring. Conversely, high Mn/Ca ratios in the last chambers reflect increased Mn refluxing in the surface sediment due to summer hypoxia/anoxia. Thus, Mn/Ca ratios of A. tepida give insight into the complex spatial and temporal variability of pore water manganese. Accepted Author ManuscriptBT/Environmental Biotechnolog
