47. Type And Typography
A complete guide to the history and science of types, fonts and typography.
http://www.cyber-north.com/fonts/
T YPE AND T YPOGRAPHY A piece of printer's type is a simple device; yet its invention had a great effect on the course of civilization. In the struggle upward from barbarism, mankind learned to turn ideas into speech and, centuries later, into writing. Writing thoughts down by hand was slow and cumbersome; a quicker way was needed to inform great numbers of people. A method for making numerous copies was therefore needed. Movable type proved to be the answer. A type, or piece of type, is a slim metal block nearly 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) long, having for its face a letter or other character, usually in high relief. It is cast from an alloy of lead, tin, and antimony. For more than 300 years type was set, or assembled, by hand and locked into a frame, or chase. It was inked and imprinted on paper in a press. Today almost no type is cast and set by machine or set by hand. These processes have been superseded by electronically controlled phototypesetting machines that can set more than 10,000 characters per second. Printing is done by various methods, utilizing complex, high-speed presses. Sizes of Type Measuring Width Fonts Type Casting by Hand and by Machine ... BACK TO MAIN PAGE

    History of levitation

    David Blaine on levitation

    Magic Tricks
    at Ellusionist.com
    L evitation is a phenomenon of psychokinesis (PK) in which objects, people, and animals are lifted into the air without any visibly physical means and float or fly about. The phenomenon has been said to have occurred in mediumship, shamanism , trances, mystical rapture, and demonic possession . Some cases of levitation appear to be spontaneous, while spiritual or magical adepts are said to be able to control it consciously.
    T here are two methods to levitate. The first is to attempt to REALLY levitate... generally you sit cross-legged and meditate and this causes you to levitate (supposedly). The second method is to create the illusion that you are levitating... this is what WE are going to deal with

    History of Science
    Another approach is to teach Earth history within the context of human history, in which many students may be well-versed.
    • The topics of the course, such as plate tectonics, can be taught using stories of discoveries and debates. The instructor can emphasize how the Scientific Method and paradigm shifts work and stress the importance of doubt in science. This format is also a useful vehicle for teaching the nature of evidence used to work out past events (especially ones without a modern analog) and the importance of having a mechanism when developing (and especially when debating) a theory.

    Topics for a history of Earth history course may include:
    • The development of the geologic timescale by British stratigraphers How the timescale has been filled in by the international scientific community and still is far from finished The discovery of radiometric dating The information revealed by the first ocean cores
    Biographies
    History of geology courses and resources often emphasize the biographies of the researchers who clearly formulated the major concepts of modern geoscience, such as Hutton or the Curies.

    description
    We will approach our subject by asking five of the most central and controversial questions in the history of science : Why has science flourished in the West? What, if anything, was revolutionary about early modern changes in the sciences? How did the sciences become a central part of public life? How did the sciences come to have authority over human progres s? Why has the public come simultaneously to revere and fear the sciences?
    Students who exert themselves in this course will be able to do the following by the end of the semester: understand some of the ways that changing social contexts have shaped the sciences over time; comprehend the importance of historical debates to contemporary science and participate in those debates; fluently speak, read, and write in a humanistic way about the sciences.
    Successful completion of this course fulfills the American and Western Cultural POK. History majors can take this course to fulfill the pre-modern requirement.
