Her repertoire encompasses a wide range of musical styles and genres-symphony, opera and chamber music- represented in more than 700 works. She has conducted numerous world premieres. The George Enescu Philharmonic (Bucharest), the Symphony Orchestra of Russia (Moscow), the Tonkunstlerorchester (Vienna), the Buenos Aires Philharmonic, the Pasdeloup Orchestra (Paris), the National Symphony Orchestra of Mexico, and the Chamber Orchestras of Lausanne and Vienna are among the 80 orchestras that have invited her to serve as a guest conductor. Her concerts in 26 countries of Europe, Asia and the Americas have taken her to such theaters as the Grosser Musikvereinssaal of Vienna, the Kennedy Center of Washington, D.C., the Bolshoi Hall of Moscow Conservatory, the Teatro Colón of Buenos Aires, the Teatro Bellas Artes of Mexico, D.F., the Theater of the Nationalities of Beijing, and the Salle Pleyel of Paris.
# Barlow's wheel

Barlow's wheel was an early demonstration of a homopolar motor, designed and built by English mathematician and physicist, Peter Barlow in 1822. It consists of a star-shaped wheel free to turn suspended over a trough of the liquid metal mercury, with the points dipping into the mercury, between the poles of a horseshoe magnet. A DC electric current passes from the hub of the wheel, through the wheel into the mercury and out through an electrical contact dipping into the mercury. The Lorentz force of the magnetic field on the moving charges in the wheel causes the wheel to rotate. The presence of serrations on the wheel is unnecessary and the apparatus will work with a round metal disk, usually made of copper.
    "The points of the wheel, R, dip into mercury contained in a groove hollowed in the stand. A more rapid revolution will be obtained if a small electro-magnet be substituted for a steel magnet, as is shown in the cut. The electro-magnet is fixed to the stand, and included in the circuit with the spur-wheel, so that the current flows through them in succession. Hence, the direction of the rotation will not be changed by reversing that of the current; since the polarity of the electromagnet will also be reversed."
    (Excerpt taken from the 1842 edition of the Manual of Magnetism, page 94)
It is used as a demonstration of electromagnetism in physics education. Because mercury is toxic, brine is sometimes used in place of mercury in modern recreations of the experiment.

## How it works

Action of a magnet on current and how rotational motion is produced due to this can be shown by Barlow's wheel experiment. The apparatus consists of a star shaped copper wheel capable of rotating freely in a vertical plane about a horizontal axis. The point of each spoke of the star just dips into a pool of mercury kept in a small groove on the wooden base of the apparatus. The pool of mercury is kept in between the two opposite poles of a strong magnet. The wheel rotates with its plane being perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field and during its rotation only one point of the star dips into the pool of mercury at a time. When the axis of the wheel and the mercury are connected to electric cell, the circuit is completed through the axis of the wheel (when a point dips in the mercury) and the mercury. On passing current through the circuit the wheel will begin to rotate due to the action of the magnet on the current. The direction of rotation of the wheel can be determined by applying Fleming's left hand rule. While rotating and when a spoke of the wheel just leaves the mercury the circuit breaks but due to inertia of motion the wheel continues its motion and brings the next spoke in contact with the mercury thereby restoring the electrical contact. In this way rotation of the wheel continues. On reversing the direction of the current or that of the magnetic field the wheel rotates in the opposite direction. The speed of rotation depends upon the strength of the magnetic field and the strength of the current. Here mechanical energy is obtained from electrical energy.

# Palms Apartments

The Palms is an apartment building located at 1001 East Jefferson Avenue in Detroit, Michigan. It was one of the first buildings in the United States to use reinforced concrete as one of its major construction materials. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.

## Significance

The six-story apartment building was initially built as a high-class residence between 1901 and 1903 at a cost of about $80,000. However, the historical importance of this building lies in its construction. The building was designed by the architectural firm of George D. Mason and Albert Kahn Associates, who used reinforced concrete as one of the major construction materials—one of the first buildings in the nation constructed in such fashion. The technique of using reinforced concrete was not fully developed until Julius Kahn, brother of Albert, developed the "Kahn System" of reinforcing the concrete and formed the Trussed Concrete Steel Company in Detroit to produce the steel bar that was developed for this system. In 1905, Building No. 10 of the Packard Plant was built using the new Kahn System.

## Description

The Palms and Book families were the investors in the construction of this building; it was named after Francis Palms, who lived in the nearby Croul-Palms House. The building is constructed in a "U" shape, with an exterior of solid masonry faced in limestone. The façade is symmetrical, with octagonal towers at the corners. The original floor plans called for apartments that occupied an entire wing of the building, consisting of a double parlor in the front and a dining room with fireplace to the back separated by bedrooms, libraries, baths and more. However, in the 1930s the building was divided into smaller apartments. Much of the original details still exist on the interior and exterior. The building was listed on the State Register in 1979, the National Register in 1985, and received Local Historic District designation in 1980.

# Beverly Noa

Beverly Kauiokanahele Noa (June 14, 1933 – October 19, 2017) was a Hawaiian hula dancer. Noa was the 1952 winner of the Miss Hawaii contest and was inducted into the Hawaiian Music Hall of Fame in 2014.

## Early years and career

Beverly Kathleen Rivera was born June 14, 1933, in Los Angeles, California. Her parents were Benny Rivera and Victoria Miller. She was raised in Honolulu and graduated from Farrington High School.
Beverly was introduced to hula by her teacher Louise Beamer when she was six years old, and she would later study with the renowned artist ʻIolani Luahine. At age eighteen she was crowned Miss Hawaii 1952 and competed in the 1953 Miss America contest, where she placed in the top ten. She began her career as a featured dancer at the well-known Waikiki bar Don the Beachcomber.
Hawaiian tourism expert Robert C. Allen said that Noa "took Hawaiian hula dancing to new levels" and described her as the most popular Island dancer of her time. Noa performed at many of Hawaii's most famous showrooms, including the Tapa Room at the Hilton Hawaiian Village, and she was a frequently headliner at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel and the Halekulani. She performed regularly on radio program Hawaii Calls with her husband Ed Kenney. She was best known for her graceful performance of "Lovely Hula Hands". Hula teacher Michael Pili Pang described her artistry: "Her presence is unforgettable. Her hula is pure art. Her style of movement is like watching poetry in motion as she transports you to a romantic place in the mountains or to a spectacular sunset along a beach."
Noa traveled across the U.S. as the Hawaii Visitor Bureau's "poster girl". She promoted the Kamehameha Garment Company and worked as a model for Alfred Shaheen. Noa also was part of the first Calvin Klein retail store in Hawaii and worked for fourteen years as the manager of Chanel in Hawai‘i before retiring in 2002.

## Death and legacy

She died at The Queen's Medical Center in Honolulu on October 19, 2017.
Noa was inducted into the Hawaiian Music Hall of Fame in 2015 as part of the class of 2014. In March 2017, she was honored with the annual I Ola Mau Ka Hula award.

## Personal life

Noa married twice and had two children. She married roller derby star Fred Lee Noa, Sr. and together they had one son, Fred Noa, Jr. She later married singer Ed Kenney Jr., with whom she had their son Ed Kenney III, although they divorced shortly before their son was born. Noa raised her sons as a single mother in the Kāhala neighborhood of Honolulu. Her son Ed Kenney is a chef and restaurateur who hosted the 2016-2017 PBS television series Family Ingredients. Noa appeared on the first episode of the series to discuss their family's relationship with poi.
# Essex Chanel

Essex Chanel a multi-genre musical project formed in 2005 in Chicago, Illinois by Travis Lee Wiggins.

## History

Wiggins started Essex Chanel to go in a different musical direction than his first band, Fetla. After Fetla went on a 2-year hiatus in 2005, Essex Chanel became Wiggins’s primary project.
Most of Essex Chanel’s prolific recorded output is arranged and produced by Wiggins. Wiggins likes to experiment and use different musical styles from release-to-release, sometimes even from song-to-song. “With each album, I go in a different direction. I challenge myself,” Wiggins said in the RedEye.
In November 2010, Essex Chanel released song number 250, The Good Times. The song was played on Chicago's WXRT-FM's Local Anesthetic.
In January 2011, Essex Chanel confirmed they would be a guest on Chic-a-Go-Go.

## Musical Style and Influences

Essex Chanel is typically categorized as indie rock, indie pop, or folk pop, but due to the experimentation of Wiggins’ songwriting the music has fallen into an additional variety of music genres, including bluegrass, folk, Americana, dance/electronica, honky-tonk, alternative and classical, while still retaining mostly a pop-influenced base with an emphasis on melody, playfulness and orchestration.
Essex Chanel is most commonly compared to Ween due to a similarity in the way both bands genre-jump and use a wide array of music influences, as well as the sense of humor both groups have.
Essex Chanel's release Love is Proximity was compared to Sufjan Stevens, Arcade Fire, and The Magnetic Fields 69 Love Songs.

## Collaborators

Wiggins has collaborated with many musicians for Essex Chanel: Stephen Dranger, Mike Regan, Allison Trumbo, Aleksandra Lederer, Mitch Nimnicht, Steven Aleck, Robert Pleshar, Micah Travisonno, Brian Koehler, Joseph Khalifah, Luke Krause, Angelina Lucero (who had played with Pretty Good Dance Moves), & Sara Ma.

## Music videos

Essex Chanel broke into the national scene in 2010 with the release of a music video for the single "Skinny Dippin'." The A.V. Club said "Not many bands can pull off a song about skinny-dipping and have it sound charming instead of creepy, but Essex Chanel is schooled in all kinds of charm, filtered through frontman Travis Lee Wiggins’ vision." The video was in rotation on JBTV, MTV Latin America, Fuse TV On Demand, and at the 9:30 Club, among others.

# Carl Scheer

Carl Scheer (December 14, 1936 – December 13, 2019) was an American basketball executive. Over his career, he served as the general manager of the Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Clippers and Charlotte Hornets. He was also the commissioner of the Continental Basketball Association. He was the first GM in Hornets history and is credited as the inventor of the NBA Slam Dunk Contest.

## Early life and career

Carl Scheer was born on December 14, 1936, in Springfield, Massachusetts to Robert and Minette Scheer. He was educated in Springfield and was an all-state basketball player. He graduated from Middlebury College, where he played basketball, and University of Miami School of Law before settling in Greensboro, North Carolina.

## Basketball career

After law school, he became an agent and was hired as an assistant to then-NBA Commissioner, J. Walter Kennedy. In 1970, he jumped to the ABA to become GM of the Buffalo Braves, leaving a few months later for the Carolina Cougars. In 1974, both Scheer and Larry Brown moved to the Denver Rockets (later the Nuggets) as the Cougars owner planned to fold the franchise. with Brown as the head coach, Scheer built a team with Bobby Jones, David Thompson and Dan Issel that made it to the 1975–76 ABA Finals.
It was in Denver that Scheer introduced the Slam Dunk Contest for the 1976 ABA All-Star Game, that featured David Thompson, Julius Erving and Artis Gilmore. Scheer made the contest a longstanding part of the NBA when he revived the idea for the 1984 NBA All-Star Game in Denver.
In 1976, Scheer and Brown led the Nuggets through the merger with the NBA with the team entering the new merged league. Denver won two straight Midwest Division titles upon entering the NBA, and advanced to the 1978 Western Conference Final. Eventually, Scheer and Brown clashed, and Brown resigned midway through the 1978–79 season.
Denver shuffled the front office and Scheer left the Nuggets in 1984. He moved to the Los Angeles Clippers in July 1984. His stay in Los Angeles was short after battling with team ownership and he ended up taking the job of commissioner of the Continental Basketball Association in 1986.
One year later, Scheer was tapped to be the general manager of the New Jersey Nets. However, only a few months later, the expansion Charlotte Hornets hired him as the new general manager once his commitments to the CBA ended. Charlotte owner George Shinn wanted Scheer to work under a handshake agreement while Scheer, an attorney, sought a multi-year contract. The dispute led to Scheer's resignation in 1990. He left Charlotte to take over as president of the Nuggets.
Scheer's second stay in Denver was short, as he left only 14 months later amid other departures in the front office.
In his later career, Scheer worked as an executive with two minor-league hockey teams, the Charlotte Checkers and the Greenville Grrrowl.

## Personal life

Scheer was married to Marsha (Krieger) Scheer from 1959 until his death. He had two children, Bob and Lauren. Scheer died on December 13, 2019, at the age of 82, from complications of dementia, in Charlotte, North Carolina.
