Green Lanes in Stoke Newington, London has a long history as a route for moving livestock to markets in the 1700s. In the late 1800s, several parks and public spaces were established in the area, including Clissold Park and Finsbury Park. During the 1900s, Stoke Newington was administered as a metropolitan borough until 1965 when it was absorbed into the London Borough of Hackney. Green Lanes remained an important thoroughfare throughout this time.
Halloween is a holiday celebrated in the evening and on weekends when people stay at home. People carve pumpkins and create a frightful atmosphere to mark the end of autumn and the start of winter. According to folklore, witches and dead persons are believed to fly in the sky on Halloween, which is why people remain indoors.
Up-Helly-Aa is a large fire festival celebrated annually in January in the Shetland Islands of Scotland, marking the end of the Yule season and the influence of Scandinavian Vikings. Over 1,000 participants dressed as Vikings drag a replica longship through town at night, circling it with torches before setting it ablaze, singing and celebrating with parties throughout the night and into the morning.
Up Helly Aa refers to winter fire festivals held in Shetland, Scotland annually in mid-winter marking the end of the yule season. The Lerwick celebration involves up to 1000 costumed participants marching in squads through town, growing out of older traditions of dragging burning tar barrels. Over time, the celebrations became more elaborate, with Viking themes being introduced in the late 1800s including burning a longship replica. While originally a young working class male event, Up Helly Aa is now larger and more organized while maintaining connections to its origins over 150 years ago.
This document provides biographical information about the Svanoe family. It details that Pernille Christense Svanoe (called Milla) was born in 1842 in Norway and immigrated to the US around 1870. She graduated from medical school in Chicago and had a medical practice in several Midwestern cities. It also provides information about her siblings and parents. The document proposes a genealogical tour of Norway in 2014 to visit locations associated with Milla's family and distant relatives.

This document discusses various concepts relating to rotational motion including angular quantities, angular acceleration, rolling motion, torque, rotational dynamics, moments of inertia, rotational kinetic energy, angular momentum, and the vector nature of angular quantities. Key relationships are described such as the replacement of linear terms like position, velocity, and acceleration with their angular counterparts in equations for constant angular acceleration. Safety warnings are also provided about playing on a centrifuge.
Water Wizz is a waterpark on Cape Cod that promotes itself as the coolest destination for dads. It features various water rides and attractions, including something called the Steve Buscemi Mystery Tour.
This document provides a mythological analysis of the short story "Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin. It analyzes the characters and plot through the lens of the hero's journey. Louise is seen as the transcendent hero who undergoes a transformation when she believes her husband has died, realizing she will now be free from his controlling nature. Her initial shock and grief represent the fall and rebirth stages as she begins to see new possibilities. The analysis also characterizes Mr. Mallard as the evil force who imposed his will on Louise and made her feel controlled.
This document summarizes key concepts in psychology including Elizabeth Kübler-Ross's five stages of grief, Jean Piaget's stages of cognitive development, parenting styles, stages of child development explored by researchers like Eleanor Gibson and Harry Harlow, and Lawrence Kohlberg's stages of moral development. It also briefly mentions theorists like Lev Vygotsky, Jean Piaget, and Carol Gilligan and her research on gender differences in moral reasoning.
Johnson Controls and Tyco merged vertically, combining parts that make up cars. General Electric is a conglomerate with many subsidiary companies including Bently Nevada which produces products available in the greater New Braunfels area. General Electric operates in multiple countries including the US, Norway, Puerto Rico, Singapore, UK, and France and is therefore a multinational company.
This document discusses key aspects of abnormal psychology including definitions of distress, deviance, and dysfunctionality as well as issues with diagnosing mental illness. It notes the five axes used in diagnosis and problems with overdiagnosis and misdiagnosis. Specifically, it mentions concerns that diagnostic labels can repress those who are different and impact people in a way that confuses normal problems with serious issues.

It notes the five axes used in diagnosis and problems with overdiagnosis and misdiagnosis. Specifically, it mentions concerns that diagnostic labels can repress those who are different and impact people in a way that confuses normal problems with serious issues.
The document outlines the stages of psychosexual development according to Freudian theory, including the oral stage from birth to 18 months, the anal stage from 18 months to 3 years, the phallic stage from 3 to 6 years, and the latency stage from 7 to 11 years, culminating in the genital stage. It notes that oral fixation can result from too much or too little satisfaction at the oral stage and discusses toilet training in relation to the anal stage.
Motivation theories include: intrinsic motivation to master skills; instinct theory of inborn behaviors; drive reduction theory that biological needs motivate us to restore homeostasis; arousal theory that people seek an optimal arousal level; Levin's four types of goal conflicts; and Maslow's hierarchy of needs where self-actualization needs are above deficiency needs. David McLelland studied the need for achievement.
This document discusses cognitive concepts including prototypes, which are the best examples of a concept, and heuristics, which are mental shortcuts used to solve problems. It provides examples of two heuristics: representative heuristics where judgments are made based on similarity to preexisting concepts, and availability heuristics where judgments are based on how easily information comes to mind.
Sleep is important for health and well-being. Different sleep phenomena include brief visual experiences upon falling asleep, muscle contractions as one drifts off, bed-wetting issues, and sleep-walking while seemingly asleep.
Consciousness refers to people's awareness of the external world and their inner lives. Lucid dreaming is when you are conscious while dreaming. Infradian rhythms are cycles that are shorter in duration than a day.
Sensory receptors have absolute thresholds for detecting stimuli, such as seeing a candle from 20 miles away with rods and cones in the eyes. Just noticeable differences refer to the smallest amount of change in a stimulus that can be detected, such as a 1/10 change in sound pressure. Perception is influenced by assumptions, experiences, and expectations that affect how the world is seen and motivations are framed. Perceptual processes include segregating figures from grounds, detecting camouflage, perceiving apparent motion from stroboscopic displays, and using monocular and binocular cues like perspective, size, and retinal disparity to perceive depth.
The document discusses several topics in developmental psychology including Elizabeth Kübler-Ross's five stages of grief, the age of viability for infants, the effects of teratogens like alcohol on prenatal development, Conrad Lorenz's research on imprinting, reactive attachment disorder, attachment theories of Mary Ainsworth and John Bowlby, the mere exposure effect, and Erik Erikson's eight stages of psychosocial development.
This document provides definitions and concepts related to circular and rotational motion in physics, including centripetal force, centripetal acceleration, angular displacement, angular velocity, angular acceleration, torque, rotational inertia, rotational kinetic energy, and angular momentum. Key terms defined are circular motion, revolutions of an object moving in a circle such as the Earth rotating around the sun, and centripetal force as the force needed to keep an object moving in a circle.
William James wrote one of the first books on psychology focusing on introspection. The behavior or mental processes he studied aided human survival. Freud later contributed to psychology through his work in psychoanalysis.
Psychology is defined as the scientific study of mental processes and behavior. In the past, phrenology, which studied bumps on the head, was used to understand behavior but was later disproven. John B. Watson is considered the father of American behaviorism for establishing psychology as a natural science.
This document discusses temperament and psychology concepts from two thinkers. Jerome Kagan's view is that a person's temperament can be pulled to the opposite pole by about half. Carl Jung's concept of archetypes is also briefly mentioned.
The document provides information about the qualifications and roles of the U.S. President and the executive branch. It lists the qualifications to be President, the Cabinet departments, checks and balances between the executive, legislative and judicial branches, and various powers and duties of the President such as commander-in-chief, chief legislator, veto and treaty powers, and delivering the State of the Union address. It also discusses the line of succession if the President is unable to serve and how Congress can override a Presidential veto.
The document is a worksheet about the executive branch with 20 multiple choice and short answer questions. It covers topics like the roles and qualifications of the President, powers of the executive branch, the cabinet and departments, presidential succession, and the roles of the Vice President. Some key points addressed are the eight roles of the President, why the President is Commander in Chief even without military experience, privileges like Air Force One, and the President's power to issue executive orders and pardons.

Edouard Naegelin
Naegelin's Bakery is an establishment that is still alive and well in New Braunfels by its
own modern merits. The rich history of the achievements of Civil War veteran Edouard Naegelin
is just the icing on the smiley-face cookie. Naegelin's has been around for 142 years, and it was
founded by New Braunfels newcomer Edouard Naegelin with one sack of flower and less than a
dollar.
Edouard Naegelin Sr. immigrated to the United States when he was just two years old. His
parents brought him from Alsace-Lorraine, France. At the age of 19, he fought in the Civil War
on the Confederate side.
The war did not turn him into a grizzled tough guy, however. At just 24 years old, the
fresh-faced Naegelin opened up shop in New Braunfels. He had already attempted to start a
bakery in San Antonio with a partner, but the two were not a good pair. He started his first New
Braunfels bakery in the Goldebagen building on the corner of Seguin Street and Mill Street. This
was the baker's lot belonging to Prince Solms's baker. It was recently the location of the City
Hall before the City Hall's relocation to Castell Street. The bakery was aided by the steady
supply of honey Naegelin had access to due to the large bee population in Texas. After
Naegelin's popular newspaper advertisements began to circulate, the business took off. The
bakery's most popular attraction was lebkuchen, a light cookie made with honey.
In 1870, Naegelin moved his bakery to its current location on South Seguin Avenue. Bread
was delivered to customers via horse-drawn wagon. A customer who received regular deliveries
could find freshly baked bread on their doorstep after hearing the delivery driver ring a bell (if
their pet hadn't gotten to the tasty bread first). Although Naegelin had hand-hewn his large
cypress mixing bowl, many of the original utensils were actually made by Henne Hardware

specifically for the Naegelin family. The family consisted of Edouard, his wife Francisca, and
their two children, Leonie and Edward Jr. The family lived in the Klein house, a small cottage
right next to their bakery that is one of the oldest buildings in New Braunfels. It is now a Bed
and Breakfast owned by the Granzins. The Granzins also now own Naegelin's bakery. After
Edouard Naegelin's death in 1923, the Naegelin family continued operation of the bakery
themselves. It was passed down two generations before Edouard Naegelin's grandson Clinton
Frank sold it to the Granzin family in 1980. Believe it or not, the Granzins already had their own
bakery background. They had been in the bakery business for over 20 years in San Antonio, the
turf where Edouard Naegelin had originally failed. They still own Naegelin's to this day. Many
of the recipes they use are their own original. The bakery is known all over Texas. It is the oldest
bakery in the state.
