Taliesin West Case Study

The children of the Chumash also engaged in certain rites of passage into adulthood, and the mothers had rituals before giving birth. When a Chumashan mother began to experience labor she would dig a shallow hole in the ground, and then light a fire in the hole to make it warm. Finally, she would extinguish the fire right before birth and line the hole with grass to deliver the baby. After the baby was born, its nose was broken because that would make the child more attractive. For the transition into manhood the young boys would drink a hallucinogenic drink known as a tolache, while being supervised by the shaman where they would experience a vision and be given a guardian spirit (Sutton, 2012). Young girls would undergo a similar process with the addition of following food taboos on meat and salt when they first began to menstruate. Sutton (2012) states that at about 15 years of age girls would marry and at about age 18 boys would marry.

Per Reporter: For the last 90 days the children have been living with their godmother (Trakenshia). Charlotte has been in Texas and does not want to care for the children. Trakenshia attempted to retrieve the children’s social security cards to enroll them in school. Trakenshia was successful with enrolling the children in North Panola schools. The social security department realized that the children were not with Charlotte and suspended the funds. Charlotte is originally from Memphis and has been using her cousin (Tamara’s) address to receive benefits. Latoya is diagnosed with ADHD and has been prescribed medication (unknown). Latoya needs her medicine to focus for school; however, she confirmed that Charlotte had been selling the pills.

Numinbah Valley is an area and suburb approximately forty-eight kilometres south west of the Gold Coast, in south eastern Queensland, Australia. Numinbah Valley covers approximately 116 square kilometres. The area is in the south-east part of Queensland and is part of the Gold Coast Hinterland. Numinbah Valley is the upper catchment for the Nerang River. As the name suggests, Numinbah Valley is a valley, with several elevated areas in it (Figure 14 and 13). The valley is well preserved, with only 10 percent of the area having been cleared of vegetation. Only one major road runs through the valley, it being the Nerang-Murwillumbah road (there are a few other roads which run off from this one, but they are for private use).

Meewasin is empowered by the Meewasin Valley Authority Act to coordinate or control the use of development, conservation maintenance and improvement of land development within the conservation zone.

“I’ll stay here until the water comes up and float down with it when it does,” Mattie Randolph, a housewife from Eastern Tennessee told a TVA worker on his first visit to her family’s house. The TVA worker was there to buy her property which was scheduled to be submerged after the construction of the Norris Dam in 1936. The Randolph’s were one of three thousand families that were being forced to relocate in order to complete the project. Even though all of Mattie’s neighboring families had accepted government offers to buy their land, Mattie and her family were the only to refuse government purchase offers. This is a similar story to those that played out across Eastern Tennessee in the 30’s, 40’s as the newly formed TVA sought to transform

I Am The Desert Southwest Tribe By: Armando ortiz I am a member of the desert southwest tribe I wonder if we will catch any animals to eat I hear my tribe singing and dancing I see the brick houses from our village

A. Visitors (1850-1870) described the Northwest as “full of natives, no good for farming, no trees.”

I love Sioux Falls, SD for its diversity. I am a 1/8 Osage Indian. I always felt that South Dakota as a state tried to show the diversity of the Indian tribes. I do not know if my perception is correct or not. I like how you point out how libraries need to look at their demographics to look at programming and collection needs. I would think the Siouxland library system would have more programing that would include information about the local Indian tribes and more books about them because there are so many reservations in the state of South Dakota.

Evaluation: Caboolture West. There are two proposals for this area. The first proposal was presented to us by Sunshine Property Developers. They propose to fit the area for 20,000 people. Low to medium level housing, making roads bigger to fit more cars, adding buses to encourage public transport, larger park spaces and personal backyards, 15 small local shops and parkways and bikeways are all listed as important parts of the proposal. No extra facilities will be needed, current ones will be up to date. The second proposal was presented to us by Mc Keown Property Developers. They propose to have high density housing, new trains and station, green corridors and parklands, a town centre with 100 new facilities, a new hospital and school and

In Figure 2 the Southeast Transect is located in the south end of Marlatt Park, near the South Parking Circle. The transect starts west at elevation of 1280 feet and progresses to the east ending at an elevation of 1260 feet . Compared to the high starting points in the previous transects, the overall elevation is lower and the topography is more gentle. The transect starts in a relatively flat area and slopes gently to the east in the first few plots, where limestone is present. The slope increases in Plot 3 were the parent material changes to shale.The transect crosses the east creek and can be seen in Table 3. The soil types vary from Florence in Plots 1 and 2, Benfield in Plots 2 to 6, and 9, and Wymore-Kennebec complex in Plots 7 and 8.

What factors contributed to the defeat of the Plains Indians? What government policies facilitated the settlement and development of the West?

I grew up in a small, rural southeastern Wyoming town that boasts a population of 3,500 people. Life is slow and simple. As children we walked and biked the town, never feeling unsafe. The town is situated near two beautiful state parks – Glendo and Guernsey. It is also close to two state historic sites; The Oregon Trail Ruts and Register Cliff. Register Cliff is where emigrants carved their names into the soft sandstone to document their journey along the Oregon Trail. Then there are the mountain to the west of town that provide beautiful scenery and provide a sense of direction, as people travel across the vast Wyoming landscape. If you are looking for authentic Mexican food then Wheatland is the spot to stop and have lunch or dinner.

Hey Fred I have some really good innovated game ideas for Northern Frontier and I think they would help attract a wider consumer base. First add mining now lots of games have mining and they attracts lots of players which is the reason you should consider it. And to make it unique have it to where there is a mine in James Bay that colonists can mine gold and make Jewelry. Then for Natives have it to where they can find rare jem stones and can go to an appraiser and make it a refined gem stone. And what the natives can do is trade with the colonists with gem stones for gold. This allows the game to be somewhat historically accurate and not far fetched. Also you could add gold panning which is using a pan putting it in water and finding gold

In 1887, Wright worked with Louis Sullivan in Chicago, a well-known architect of the time who also wanted to separate from European style, until 1893. After Wright had stopped working with Sullivan’s firm, he made what is considered his first masterpiece, his home in Oak Park, Illinois known as the Frank Lloyd Wright home and studio. This structure was also his first work designed with his “Prairie” style. This style involved single-story homes with many horizontal lines, spacious living areas, and many casement windows. They were built with nearby materials and the wood used was not painted, expressing natural beauty. Wright later designed many more of his works in this styles, such as the Robie House and Unity Temple. In later years, he designed more well-known buildings, such as Taliesin, his home in Wisconsin, and Fallingwater, a building built on a waterfall in Pennsylvania. Later, he built public buildings, for instance, the Monona Terrace Civic Center, the SC Johnson Wax Administration, and the Guggenheim Museum. Wright also designed Tokyo’s Imperial Hotel in 1915, which he stated was “earthquake-proof” and, later, ended up being the only building involved in the 1923 Japanese earthquake to remain unscathed. Wright had also designed Usonian houses, which were the predecessors of today’s ranch-style homes. These homes had natural heating and cooling, and included carports, which were invented by Wright. All in all, Wright designed more than 1,100 structures. Frank Lloyd Wright died on April 9th, 1959, at age 91.
