# Canadian Committee for the Theory of Machines and Mechanisms

The Canadian Committee for the Theory of Machines and Mechanisms (CCToMM) is the Canadian branch of the International Federation for the Promotion of Mechanism and Machine Science (IFToMM). As with IFToMM, CCToMM is an organization that supports the exchange of researchers and engineers from a wide range of disciplines related to Mechanical Engineering.

## Mission

To promote research and development in the field of Machines and Mechanisms by theoretical and experimental methods, along with their practical application.

## History

Since its inception in 1971, CCToMM has grown to become an important part of the fabric of Canadian research in the theory of mechanisms and machines (TMM). CCToMM was founded by M.O.M. Osman, Professor of mechanical engineering at Concordia University in Montreal. The committee was fully formed and operating on time for the ASME DETC 1976, which took place in Montreal. CCToMM became affiliated with IFToMM in 1979 and has been a regular member organisation since.
CCToMM has served the Canadian TMM community in both Canadian official languages. For example, presentations at CCToMM symposia are welcome in both the French and English languages.
The succession of CCToMM Chairs is as follows:
* Professor M.O.M. Osman (1971-1992), Concordia University;
* Professor Jorge Angeles (1992-1996), McGill University;
* Professor Louis Cloutier (1996-1999), Université Laval;
* Dr. Jean-Claude Piedboeuf (1999-2003), Canadian Space Agency;
* Professor Ronald Podhorodeski (2003-2011) University of Victoria;
* Professor M. John D. Hayes (2011-2019) Carleton University;
* Professor Scott B. Nokleby (since 2019) Ontario Tech University.

## Meetings and events

* CCToMM Annual General Meeting - once a year
* CCToMM Mechanisms, Machines, and Mechatronics Symposium (CCToMM M³ Symposium) - every odd year since 1999
The CCToMM M³ Symposium is a single-track conference covering subjects in the areas of Mechanisms, Machines and Mechatronics, thus its name CCToMM M³. During even-numbered years until 2016, the symposium was held within the CSME Congress (formerly known as the CSME Forum) while in odd-numbered years, the symposium is organised as a stand-alone event most often held in Ontario and Quebec. In 2022 CCToMM formed an alliance with the American Committee, known as USCToMM, whereby in even numbered years members of CCToMM are invited to participate in the USCToMM Symposium on Mechanical Systems and Robotics (MSR), while in odd numbered years members of USCToMM are invited to participate in the CCToMM M³ Symposium.
# Ghislaine Crozaz

Ghislaine Crozaz (born 1939) is a cosmochemist known for her research on the early history of the solar system through tracking trace elements in meteorites.

## Education and career

Crozaz received a B.Sc. in 1961 and a Ph.D. in 1967 from the University of Brussels. In 1967, and from 1971 to 1972, she was a visiting associate in Geochemistry at California Institute of Technology. She moved to Washington University in St. Louis as a postdoctoral investigator in the lab of Robert M. Walker (physicist). As of 2021, she is professor emerita in Earth and Planetary Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis and lives in Brussels.
The planet Ghislaine, discovered in 1986 by Carolyn Shoemaker and Eugene Shoemaker, is named after Crozaz.

## Research

While a Ph.D. student, Crozaz pioneered the use of lead-210 to establish ages in ice cores in Antarctica and Greenland. While working in Brussels, Crozaz became interested in space science and meteorites she started working on the first lunar samples returned to Earth during the Apollo 11 mission. She started her research in this arena by looking at fission tracks in lunar samples. These lunar samples are still serving as the basis for scientific research many years later. Crozaz went on to work with Ernest Zinner to develop an ion microprobe method to measure rare earth elements in the individual crystals found in extraterrestrial and terrestrial rocks. Crozaz later participated in group efforts to sample meteorites in Antarctica, one of which was the first lunar sample found on Earth, and through this research examined the history of meteorites found in Antarctica.

# 23rd Street (Richmond, California)

23rd Street is a major north-south trunk street in Richmond and San Pablo, California flanked by many Latino-oriented businesses.

## History

The street runs between San Pablo Avenue in the north and Interstate 580 in the south after which it becomes Marina Bay Parkway. It later meets up with 22nd Street at Grant Avenue. It is currently served by the AC Transit bus line 74 along its entirety and on portions by route 70, 76, 376, and 71 in addition to numerous 600 series school routes.
The street is a major commercial sector for the city of Richmond and has mostly Latino themed and focused stores, particularly restaurants. It hosts a Cinco de Mayo Festival every year, having a parade at Nevin Avenue in Richmond all the way into San Pablo.
On May 1, 2006 most of the storefronts on 23rd Street were closed in observance of the great American boycott known as "Day Without an Immigrant." A protest was staged on 23rd Street with about 25,000 participants.
The city of Richmond has many improvements planned after consulting with the community including adding sharrows for cyclists, wider sidewalks for pedestrians, parallel parking, and wider left turn lanes for vehicles. There are also planned additions of street furniture, pedestrian lighting, trees and landscaping, decorative sidewalks and art, and wayfinding signage.
Since 2006 the 23rd Street Merchants Association has sponsored a Cinco de Mayo festival along the street that now attracts thousands of patrons. The event bans alcohol and is geared toward young people.

# 7th Street (Washington, D.C.)

There are two north–south arteries in Washington, D.C. named 7th Street that are differentiated by the quadrants of the city in which they are located.

## History

Historically, 7th Street was a main north–south road in Washington, D.C., and the main route for travelers and farmers coming into the city from the north. This is evident in its intersection with Mount Vernon Square, a historically important public space, and the original Central Market, located at the intersection of Seventh, Pennsylvania, and Indiana Avenues. The space occupied by this Central Market is now the Navy Memorial. The corridor from here west along F Street and north along Seventh is the city's historic retail shopping district with its large department stores and specialty stores. Seventh Street forms major intersections at Pennsylvania Avenue, E Street NW, H Street NW, K Street NW, and Massachusetts Avenue.

## 7th Street SW and NW

7th Street SW begins at Water Street, near the banks of the Washington Channel. It crosses above Interstate 395 approximately two blocks before it intersects with Maryland and Virginia avenues near the U.S. Department of Transportation and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development buildings, which are located across the street from each other on 7th Street SW.
Continuing north, 7th Street crosses the National Mall, where it becomes 7th Street NW. In this southernmost segment of 7th Street NW, it is the main north–south thoroughfare in Penn Quarter and Chinatown.
Farther north, it crosses New York Avenue at Mount Vernon Square and then crosses Rhode Island Avenue where it also becomes U.S. Route 29. North of Florida Avenue, 7th Street remains U.S. 29 but becomes a diagonal and continues as Georgia Avenue.
Between Pennsylvania Avenue and Mount Vernon Square, 7th Street has a northbound bus/bicycle lane. The corresponding southbound lane is on 9th Street.
7th Street begins again at Quincy Street NW extending north about 3 miles (4.8 km) to near the Maryland border, passing through Sherman Circle.
North of Independence Avenue, 7th Street/Georgia Avenue is part of the National Highway System.

## 7th Street SE and NE

A second set of 7th Streets lie in the eastern quadrants of the city, parallel to the western ones, in several discontinuous segments. The longest section begins at M Street SE, just north of the Washington Navy Yard. It continues north through the neighborhood of Capitol Hill. When 7th Street SE crosses East Capitol Street it becomes 7th Street NE and continues due north, ending at Florida Avenue, just south of Gallaudet University. Shorter segments of the 7th Street SE exist south of the Anacostia River, while parts of 7th Street NE are further north in the Brookland neighborhood.
# Abilene Trail

The Abilene Trail was a cattle trail leading from Texas to Abilene, Kansas. Its exact route is disputed owing to its many offshoots, but it crossed the Red River just east of Henrietta, Texas, and continued north across the Indian Territory to Caldwell, Kansas and on past Wichita and Newton to Abilene. The first herds were probably driven over it in 1866, though it was not named until Abilene was established in 1867.
The earlier Shawnee-Arbuckle cattle trail was used by trail drivers from 1867 through 1870. According to Gary and Margaret Kraisinger, "When Fort Arbuckle was abandoned and Fort Sill had become established, trail drivers moved their pathway farther west to a more direct route to Abilene, Kansas. From the 1860s through the 1880s, cowboys 'went up the trail' and 'pointed them north' to Kansas...the drovers often called the trail 'the Kansas Trail,' or the 'Abilene Trail,' because they were going in that direction."
In 1867, Joseph G. McCoy developed stockyards at Abilene, along the Union Pacific Eastern Division Railroad, since "the country was entirely unsettled, well watered, excellent grass, and nearly the entire area of [the] country was adopted to holding cattle." According to Gary and Margaret Kraisinger, "Because it was late in the season, he employed W.W. Sugg, a stockman friend from his home state of Illinois, to ride south to intercept herds trailing to Missouri on the Shawnee Trail." On 5 September, the first rail carloads of cattle were on their way to Chicago.$^{:20–21}$
In 1867, McCoy reported 35,000 head of cattle had arrived in Abilene. With more Texas cattlemen knowing of the shorter route, more than 300,000 Texas longhorns used the trail over the next two seasons. The trail eventually became known as the Chisholm Trail since it used the pre-existing Chisholm Wagon Road, and by 1871 Abilene was no longer accepting Texas cattle with Newton, Wichita and Ellsworth becoming the new cattle towns.$^{:23–26,113}$
The country about Abilene was settling up quickly at this time. Grazing lands were becoming scarcer and these conditions were such that many of the settlers objected to the pasturing of the great herds in the vicinity. In the year 1872, Wichita was in possession of the trade that Abilene had enjoyed for several years prior due to the completion of the Santa Fe railroad. This gave Wichita the needed railroad facilities. From 1867 to 1871 about 10,000 cars of livestock were shipped out of Abilene and in 1872 about 80,000 head of cattle were shipped from Wichita.
The settlement of the valleys of the Arkansas and the Ninnescah rivers rendered it impractical to reach Wichita shipping yards after 1873 and the loading of cattle was transferred to points on the railroad farther west, finally stopping at Dodge City. The use of the Abilene cattle trail ended in 1887.
# Jean Bosco Mwenda

Jean-Bosco Mwenda, also known as Mwenda wa Bayeke (1930 – September 1990), was a pioneer of Congolese fingerstyle acoustic guitar music. He was also popular in other African countries, particularly in East Africa, and in the late 1950s and early 1960s was briefly based in Nairobi, Kenya, where he had a regular radio show and became a profound influence on a generation of Kenyan guitarists.

## Background

Jean-Bosco Mwenda was born in 1930 at Bunkeya (now part of Lualaba Province) in what was then the Belgian Congo, but lived most of his life in Lubumbashi, where in addition to playing music he had a job in a bank and with the local mining company, managed other bands, and owned a hotel on the Zambian border. He died in September 1990 in a car accident in Zambia.
Mwenda used the name Mwenda wa Bayeke, claiming descent from the Sanga noble clan of Bayeke. His music draws on various sources including the traditional music of his Luba/Sanga people. He was one of the few Congolese to obtain a Western education during the colonial era due to his father's position in the Catholic Church. Mwenda worked at first as a clerk for the Likasi administration but soon achieved huge success as a guitarist, issuing his first recordings in 1952.
Along with his friend and sometime partner Losta Abelo, and his cousin Edouard Masengo, Bosco defined the Congolese acoustic guitar style. His song "Masanga", recorded by Hugh Tracey, became particularly influential, because of its complex and varied guitar part. His own influences included traditional music of Zambia and the Eastern Congo, Cuban groups such as the Trio Matamoros, and cowboy movies.
A 1982 video field recording by Gerhard Kubik exists in a compilation of influential African guitarists artists entitled Native African Guitar. A 1982 CD with booklet (text by Gerhard Kubik, also in English, including the Kiswahili song texts), is available from the Museum für Völkerkunde, Berlin. The recordings include the complete concert Bosco gave at June 30, 1982, at the Museum für Völkerkunde, Berlin. In 1988 Cape Town-based record label Mountain Records recorded a studio album of Mwenda's music and issued it in 1994. The album is entitled Mwenda wa Bayeke - African guitar legend.

Charles Schlecht (1843-1905) was an engraver at the US Bureau of Engraving and Printing. He did the engraving for the 1896 Educational Series one-dollar bill: History Instructing Youth.

## Early life

He was born in Stuttgart Germany on June 11, 1843. When he was nine years old he emigrated to the United States with his family. His family settled in New York. In 1859 he began work as an apprentice engraver for the American Banknote Company.

## Career

In addition to producing engravings for currency, he also produced other etchings such as Eyes to the blind and The Wish. He engraved the portrait of New York Governor William L. Marcy for the United States one-thousand-dollar bill. The portrait appeared on the series from 1878-91. One example of a A Series 1891 $1,000 silver certificate sold for US$2.6m in June 2013.
In 1895 his salary at the BEP was $6,000 (equivalent to $226,776 in 2024) per year. He did the engraving for the obverse of the United States one-dollar bill for the 1896 Educational Series: History Instructing Youth.
# Hancock Cemetery

Hancock Cemetery is a historic cemetery on the Hancock Adams Common, across from the United First Parish Church, in Quincy, Massachusetts, United States. It is named after Reverend John Hancock Jr. (1702–1744), father of Founding Father John Hancock.
The cemetery was founded c. 1640 (the date of the earliest documented graves), and is the only tangible remainder of the early settlement of the area. It was the burial place of Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams and their wives, Abigail Adams and Louisa Adams (respectively), before they were moved to the crypt in the United First Parish Church. The cemetery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
