Founding the City of Rancho Cucamonga 1972-1978: An Acknowledgement of the Contribution of the Volunteers
Paige Press 2006. paperback. Good. 7x0x10. 2006 signed and inscribed first edition Paige Press Claremont California 8 1/2 x 10 7/8 inches tall paperbound in glossy green pictorial covers 14 321 pp. Half-page prospectus laid in. Very slight rubbing to covers. On the half title page nicely inscribed and signed by the author pioneering WASP pilot and public servant who worked to found the City of Rancho Cucamonga Catherine 'Cappy' Vail Bridge 1920-2022. Very light dampstain barely visible to the lower edges of pages in the last two-thirds of the book. Otherwise a very good copy - clean bright and unmarked - of this rare local history. OCLC No. 124077721 locates only two copies at collections worldwide - at The Claremont Colleges and UC Berkeley in California. ~S~ 3.0P This case study offers a unique and comprehensive perspective on the founding of Rancho Cucamonga a city located just south of the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains and Angeles National Forest in San Bernardino County California. From three formerly self-sufficient and proudly independent rural farmland communities a thriving and integrated city was formed through the leadership and organizational abilities of citizen volunteers on the city incorporation committees. Founding the City of Rancho Cucamonga is not only a tribute to the efforts of dedicated citizens but also a reflection of the author's education in the fields of political service and democratic principles gained through the studies offered at the University of California Berkeley and the Claremont Graduate University.

Charlot,Emmanuel/Bridge,Jane
CURSO DE JUDO
De Vecchi. Bueno. Descripción:Barcelona 2008.208 pag.Ilustrado.Ejemplar nuevo pero con sello de Archivo.SINOPSIS:Los orígenes del judo se remontan al antiguo ju-jitsu. Es una técnica de combate sin armas elaborada por Jigoro Kano que en el año 1882 fundó la escuela del Kodokan "lugar en donde se estudia la Vía". El judo es el arte marcial más conocido del planeta y ha abierto el camino a otras disciplinas de combate en los países occidentales. Los autores que acumulan muchos años de experiencia en los tatamis aportan toda la información necesaria para practicar esta disciplina olímpica en las mejores condiciones. En este libro presentan una visión histórica de la disciplina los principios fundamentales de esta actividad física los elementos de la tradición de la que deriva y la presentación de las técnicas cuyo objetivo principal es desequilibrar al oponente para derribarlo. Las abundantes ilustraciones didácticas acompañadas de detalladas descripciones le ayudarán a ejecutar los diferentes movimientos: los ataques las paradas las defensas y las fintas ya no tendrán ningún secreto. Gracias a esta didáctica guía podrá entrar de lleno en el fascinante mundo del judo. Jane Bridge fue la primera campeona del mundo de la historia: en 1980 en Nueva York obtuvo el premio de mejor técnica del certamen. Repitió su éxito en 1987 cuando consiguió el título de campeona del mundo veterana en São Paulo Brasil. Ha sido entrenadora del equipo nacional inglés y de varios equipos franceses de alto nivel. En 2008 pasó a ser entrenadora en la universidad de Bath en Inglaterra. Su 7.º dan la convierte en una de las mujeres con el grado más alto del judo mundial. Emmanuel Charlot es periodista especializado en artes marciales y judo disciplina que enseña.

Chester Bridge Collapse
The Chester Bridge Collapse Deadly Railroad Disaster Large Albumen Photo Archive Massachusetts August 31 1893
1893. Boston and Albany Railroad disaster photo archive documenting the catastrophic 1893 bridge collapse at Chester Massachusetts when the westbound Chicago Limited Express crashed through an iron bridge spanning the Westfield River. The wreck occurred on August 31 1893 after the bridge failed beneath the weight of the train sending locomotives and passenger cars into the river gorge below. Fourteen people were killed and dozens injured in a disaster that drew national newspaper attention during a period when American railroads were rapidly expanding passenger service while struggling with aging infrastructure and increasing locomotive weight.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 4 albumen photographs mounted on original boards each 8" x 10" Chester Massachusetts August 31 1893. The images show passenger coaches twisted into the collapsed bridge structure tracks hanging above shattered timbers and the locomotive overturned amid splintered debris along the riverbank. One view centers on a heavily damaged passenger car resting beside broken rails while groups of men stand surveying the destruction. Another records the locomotive and tender surrounded by wreckage and recovery workers gathered along the track bed. Smoke rises above the debris field in one scene while telegraph poles hillsides and the river valley remain visible in the background situating the wreck within the narrow western Massachusetts rail corridor. Pencil inscriptions along the mounts identify "Chester" with date "Aug. 31st 1893."<br /> The Chester wreck became one of several highly publicized railroad disasters of the late nineteenth century that intensified scrutiny of bridge engineering inspection standards and railroad safety during the peak era of American passenger rail expansion. By the 1890s express trains such as the Chicago Limited linked eastern industrial centers to the Midwest with unprecedented speed but the increased weight of modern locomotives placed enormous strain on bridges originally designed for lighter rolling stock. These photographs preserve not only the violence of the collapse itself but also the physical reality of nineteenth-century rail disaster recovery when wreckage removal body recovery and public investigation unfolded directly at the crash site. Light toning scattered surface wear and minor mount wear consistent with age; images remain clear and detailed. Overall in very good condition. unknown

CHRISTIE, S HUNTER - THE INVENTION OF "THE WHEATSTONE BRIDGE"
The Bakerian Lecture.- Experimental Determination of the Laws of Magneto-electric Induction in different masses of the same Metal and of its Intensity in different Metals. Read Feb. 28 1833.
London Richard Taylor 1833. 4to. No wrappers as extracted from "Philosophical Transactions" 1833 - Part I. Pp. 95-142 a. 2 engraved plates showing the apparatus the Wheatstone Bridge. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of the paper in which Christie describes his invention of the electrical circuit meant to measure an unknown electrical resistance by balancing two legs of a bridge circuit one leg of which includes the unknown component. It was later 1843 improved and popularized by Charles Wheatstone and then baptized "Wheatsone's Bridge". Wheatstone called the circuit a "Differential Resistance Measurer." "Christie’s paper "Experimental Determination of the Laws of Magneto-electric Induction" was the Bakerian lecture for 1833. In it Christie showed that "the conducting power varies as the squares of the wires’ diameters directly and as their lengths inversely." He also concluded that voltaelectricity thermoelectricity and magnetoelectricity are all conducted according to the same law which lent further support to the theory that all these electricities are identical. In this paper the paper offered Christie also gave the first description of the instrument that came to be known as the Wheatstone bridge."DSB. </em> unknown
