El documento lista los nombres de 5 personas que forman parte del Grupo 5 de Pekka y se reunirán un Jueves por la noche: Camila Jaurretche, Nadia Lechuga, Mercedes Monserrat, Tatiana Baigún.
Towards Carfree Cities: The Technology Component (Michael Smith, NextBus)Joe Hughes
The document discusses how technology can help improve public transit systems and increase ridership. It notes that dependency on oil, climate change, pollution, and traffic congestion provide reasons to improve transit. While transit could be a viable solution, many systems currently lack money, respect, technology, and passenger information. Providing real-time arrival information through signs, websites and phones can help make transit more reliable and reduce wait times, empowering passengers. Studies show these information systems have increased ridership in many cities by addressing issues that previously discouraged transit use.

The time signature indicates the meter of a piece of music. It has two numbers, with the top number indicating the number of beats in a measure and the bottom number indicating the note value that receives one beat. The most common time signature is 4/4, where there are 4 quarter-note beats per measure. Time signatures can indicate simple or compound meter, with simple dividing the measure equally and compound grouping beats into 2s or 3s.
This document is a handbook for the Christian Fellowship Pathfinder drumline. It provides instructions on proper grip, stroke technique, and rudiments for snare, tenor, and cymbal players. It also outlines a ranking system based on metronome speed to assess players' timing skills. The goal is to develop disciplined drummers who can play at a high level like top university marching bands.

This document provides background on the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway project and summarizes a study focused on integrating sustainable stormwater management along West Street in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. The study developed conceptual stormwater designs for West Street in phases, obtaining input from city agencies and the community. The designs aim to incorporate trees, plants and soil to provide stormwater infrastructure within the public right-of-way to reduce combined sewer overflows and regulate temperatures while creating an attractive streetscape. The full report details the study methodology, existing conditions, conceptual designs, and next steps.
This document provides design principles for the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway, a planned 14-mile multi-use path along Brooklyn's waterfront. It begins with the overall design goals of planning principles and objectives to create an identifiable, user-friendly greenway. It then discusses recurring elements like signage, paving, lighting and structures that will build the greenway's identity. Finally, it outlines design solutions for common challenges such as intersections, conflicts between users, and ensuring connections to parks, neighborhoods and the waterfront. The goal is to guide future designers in creating a cohesive greenway experience from Newtown Creek to Sunset Park.
