Concept Area

This research was conducted to assess the Level Of Service (LOS) pedestrian path around the Tanjung Barat Station area. In addition, to see in terms of comfort and security in reaching a TOD concept area. For this reason, a model of pedestrian design is needed so that track users can enjoy the pedestrian pathway feeling comfortable and safe. The results of this study indicate that the level of pedestrian service on the Tanjung Barat Raya road and on the road in Lenteng Agung raya: For the Tanjung Barat Raya road the LOS index is categorized as "B" while the Lenteng Agung Raya road is in the LOS index in the "C" category. And for the prediction of the next 5 years, LOS is categorized as "B". This indicates the need for improvements in terms of supporting facilities for pedestrians on the two St. Western Cape. This indicates that the pedestrian support facilities need to be improved which will have an impact on the increasing number of pedestrian users around the West Tanjung station for the next 5 years.

On The Road

This is a personal record of a theatre worker's journey to places where theatre is inextricably mixed with politics — or is no less significantly divorced from social concerns. Visiting mainland China and South Africa in the summer of 1990, Richard Schechner records how theatre people confronted the aftermath of major political upheavals – the crushing of hopes in Tiananmen Square, and the perhaps deceptive raising of them following the release of Nelson Mandela. His trip also took in the widely different perspectives and problems of Taiwan, where pluralism struggles (almost unnoticed in the West) to displace an ageing autocracy. Richard Schechner teaches at New York University, and recently returned to the editorial chair at The Drama Review, the journal he conducted through its vintage years in the 'sixties – at the same time creating the Performance Group, and beginning his researches into theatre and anthropology, the field in which he has published widely and innovatively in the interim.

Abstract: congestion on the office and trade areas especially on Jalan Ahmad Yani is not very good. Average velocity of traffic in the morning or afternoon is only about 2 km / h, indicating the level of service on the road in the worst condition. Before getting the solution of the problem, it needs to be identified and planning things that have the potential to avoid such congestion. This study describes the existing conditions, descriptions and analysis of survey data carried out until later will be planned Building Parking Places to overcome this. The building is intended as an effort that serves the users of vehicles in a region section of Medan. It is expected that this Parking Building Building with the surrounding building can support each other. In general, this development plan only serves a particular vehicle, as a chain of facilities provided from vehicle manufacturers. The purpose of the public service is parked as much as possible, this Parking Service Building does not restrict the service only to the area where it is located, the service and placement for parking can come from outside the area in question, that is with related activities around it.Keywords: Parking Field, Vehicle Circulation, Congestion Abstrak: Kemacetan lalu lintas pada kawasan perkantoran dan perdagangan terutama di Jalan Ahmad Yani sudah sangat tidak baik. Rata-rata kecepatan arus kenderaan pada pagi atau siang hari hanya sekitar 2 km/jam, menunjukan tingkat pelayanan di jalan tersebut pada kondisi terburuk. Sebelum mendapatkan solusi dari masalah tersebut, perlu diidentifikasi dan perencanaan hal yang berpotensi untuk menghindari kemacetatan tersebut. Penelitian ini menggambarkan kondisi yang ada, deskripsi dan analisa data survei yang dilakukan sampai nantinya akan direncanakan Gedung Pelataran Parkir untuk mengatasi hal tersebut. Gedung dimaksudkan sebagai usaha yang melayani pemakai kendaraan dalam suatu wilayah dibagian kota Medan. Diharapkan Gedung Pelataran Parkir ini dengan yang  gedung sekitarnya dapat saling menunjang. Pada umumnya rencana pembangunan ini hanya melayani kendaraan tertentu, sebagai mata rantai dari fasilitas yang diberikan dari produsen kendaraan. Tujuan pelayanan masyarakat yang berparkir semaksimal, Gedung Pelataran Parkir ini tidak membatasi pelayanan hanya pada wilayah dimana ia berada, pelayanan dan penempatan untuk parkir dapat datang dari luar wilayah yang dimaksud, yaitu dengan aktivitas-aktivitas yang berhubungan disekitarnya.Kata Kunci: Pelataran Parkir, Sirkulasi Kenderaan, Kemacetan

Dura is one of the buried cities which has swum into our ken since the end of the Some paintings accidentally uncovered by a British officer first led D Breasted to the site. He was followed by Cumont and in 1928 a large expedition under Professor Rostovtzeff was sent there by Yale University and the French Academy of Inscriptions. By 1937 about one third of the site had been excavated and work was suspended through lack of funds.Dura has been compared with Pompeii but it would be hard to imagine two places more dissimilar in appearance and history. Unlike Pompeii, Dura is a grim looking site : its most striking features are the west wall on the desert side and the citadel above the Euphrates, both built of dull grey gypsum blocks : between them stretches a waste of mud brick walls. And its history covers a far longer period. Once the site of a small oriental village, it was converted by the Macedonians into a strong-point on the road between Antioch on the Orontes and Seleucia on the Tigris ; the date of its foundation is not known, but Seleucus I was regarded as the founder and it must have been about 300 B.C.

Exchange Visit

In early 1992, I spent five weeks at the Costina Hospital in Romania – an exchange visit organised by the West Midlands Regional Health Authority at the request of a charity known as Faure Alderson Romanian Appeal, based in London. The team who set off with me in a lorry, minibus and a Land Rover, included a residential social worker, a medical student who helped me with the assessment of patients and four other volunteers from the charity to help in an orphanage. The journey across Europe was confronted with difficulties at Romanian customs but we eventually managed to meet the Director of the Hospital we were visiting, after a week on the road.

This paper starts from the premise that a species or society must adapt itself to, and live within, its ecosystem, or else perish. In the event of an ecological accident, the species must rapidly adapt itself to survive. In the event of ecological misbehaviour of a society – i.e. destabilizing the ecosystem beyond the ecosystem's recuperative capacity (e.g. by nuclear poisoning), or so changing itself that it becomes incompatible with the ecosystem (e.g. by genetic engineering), the society puts itself on the road to extinction. The paper then outlines the tests for judging the ecological viability of a culture. It goes on to show how, by its homo-centric world-view, by its social philosophy, by its value system, by its culture forms, by its economic system, by its folk wisdom, by the example and precept of the culture's high priests, the Western culture makes a resource demand far beyond the earth's finite yielding capacity, and discharges a waste load far beyond the biosphere's absorptive capacity. This is a warning clear enough to those non-Western societies which, under duress or blandishment or both, set out to imitate the West, ‘catch up’ with the West, ‘beat the West at its own game’ – all in the tantalizing name of ‘modernization’. It is a game not worth playing, because in such a game even victory will be total defeat.

The paper considers the problem of improving the level of road traffic services. The level of service for various categories of city streets in practice does not correspond to the values given in normative legal documents. Therefore, the task of increasing the level of service to the indicated values on the road network is urgent. Herewith, it is important to specify the object of improvement, namely, the basic street-road network, through which the bulk of the transportation correspondence is implemented, since it is there that the greatest loss of the user time occurs. An effective tool in this work is the development of a set of measures using simulation modeling aimed at improving the level of traffic services on the street-road network.

Due to the proliferation in the number of vehicles on the road, traffic problems are bound to exist. This is due to the fact that the current transportation infrastructure and car parking facility developed are unable to cope with the influx of vehicles on the road. In India, the situation are made worse by the fact that the roads are significantly narrower compared to the west. Therefore problems such as traffic congestion and insufficient parking space inevitably crops up. In his paper we describe an Intelligent Car Parking System, which identifies the available spaces for parking using sensors, parks the cars in an identified empty space and gets the car back from its parked space without the help of any human personnel. A Human Machine Interface (HMI) helps in entering a unique identification number while entry of any car which helps in searching for the space where the car is parked while exit. An Indraconrol L10 PLC controls the actions of the parking system. The PLC is used to sequence the placing and fetching of the car via DC motors. We have implemented a prototype of the system. The system evaluation demonstrates the effectiveness of our design and implementation of car parking system.

“The apple pie was more than just ‘nutritious, man.’” Despite frequent critical fixation on the jazz aspects of Jack Kerouac's oeuvre, this reconsideration of the author's canon poses food as a central theme of the Duluoz Legend and analyzes the ways in which Kerouac thought and wrote about food as an object, literary motif, and cultural conduit—modes of thought that, despite previous tracing of contemporary food culture to the counterculture of the 1960s and 1970s, lead almost directly to many current food issues, practices, and debates. Grounded in Kerouac's attentive engagement with the agricultural overtures of Oswald Spengler's Decline of the West, this article discusses how Kerouac understood, played with, and utilized food as a means of cultural comprehension and then—via jazz—cultural subversion within the “decline” of the West, primarily through his novels The Town and the City (1950), On the Road (1957), and The Dharma Bums (1958).

How and why did the scientific consensus about sea level rise due to the disintegration of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS), expressed in the third Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessment, disintegrate on the road to the fourth? Using ethnographic interviews and analysis of IPCC documents, we trace the abrupt disintegration of the WAIS consensus. First, we provide a brief historical overview of scientific assessments of the WAIS. Second, we provide a detailed case study of the decision not to provide a WAIS prediction in the Fourth Assessment Report. Third, we discuss the implications of this outcome for the general issue of scientists and policymakers working in assessment organizations to make projections. IPCC authors were less certain about potential WAIS futures than in previous assessment reports in part because of new information, but also because of the outcome of cultural processes within the IPCC, including how people were selected for and worked together within their writing groups. It became too difficult for IPCC assessors to project the range of possible futures for WAIS due to shifts in scientific knowledge as well as in the institutions that facilitated the interpretations of this knowledge.
