Hierarchy.
Interesting choice of word to illustrate—and by interesting I mean—wtf? But hey, it certainly was a challenge to come up with something unique to represent the mundane.
The only thing I could think of was one of those organizational charts that list the boss in the big box at the top, and then the descending echelons of minions, lackeys and worker bees. The chart where people hope that they are at least as high (if not higher) on the feeder scale than the schmuck who wants you to buy his daughter’s Girl Scout cookies.
Anyway—I’ve seen (and designed) enough of the ‘org’ chart that my mind automatically goes there for ‘hierarchy’ and refuses to leave. Thus, I bring you the little doodle below. For those who keep track of this stuff: this ‘toon was created Illustrator CS3 though it probably could have been done just as easily in MS Paint.
I appreciate your comments.
One of the oldest plants on the planet, Ferns exhibit two structural characteristics that pervade the entire biota: Fractal Geometry and Circulation Hierarchy. The first is evident in the scaling up of self-similar elements. The second in the dendrite structure of the circulation elements with the progressively smaller lengths and widths of arteries down to the capillary level. Of note also is the predominance of 3-way junctions between higher and lower order veins. This system contains lessons for man-made circulation systems such as water, electricity, ventilation, telephones, the internet and finally roads.

Keynote 50 in 50
Languages - what's to learn from them? Relics of the past; we know how to design them / to use them. Types / messages / invocation / loops / numbers / methods / big ol' libraries / lots of = signs. Heh, but what is programming, and what role do programming languages play in that process? We have learned a lot over the last five decades: organizing principles, established conventions, theory, fashions, and fads. "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." In this talk we survey what we think are the most important lessons of the past that future programmers, and future programming language designers, ought not forget. We illustrate each lesson by discussing specific programming languages of the past, and endeavor to shine what light we can on the future.
Keywords: Languages, Patterns, Design, Architecure, Experience
Target Audience: People not afraid of finding out just how weird our predecessors were and who enjoy theater style.

Nested Hierarchy of Network Elements: Each class of roads forms a progressively larger grid from collector to Minor Boulevard and to Major Boulevard and on to the freeway or highway. Local streets (white) form a virtual grid of capillaries.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New urban transportation means such as trains, trucks, buses, cars and bicycles demand a suitable network. The 2000-year antiquated, uniform grid and the dentrite networks of the fifties have proven inadequate for many reasons.
A nested hierarchy of roads of increasing importance would serve these new mobility modes well. This configuration prevents cars from going through the 16 ha quadrant (or "sanctuary") cell but allows full permeability at the scale of neighbourhood and district. These transportation scales form continuous interlocking grids, each designed for progressively higher volumes, heavier load traffic and longer distance connections.
The quadrant provides a peaceful haven to about 500 families, a small village with its central square.
Higher volume arteries are generally divided with a raised median preventing left turns, except at intersections. In this version, they are divided by a city block of a width suitable to the location of the development.
This entire system , a Fused Grid, represents a blend of two previously used network patterns, each of which prevailed until it became obvious that it could not serve all mobility modes equally well.

We were assigned to redesign last year's Fine Arts Festival poster based on our lesson on hierarchy. I used only two types for the poster. I retained the idea of the banderitas and added orange to make the feel a bit more playful and happy. I used color visual cues to emphasize the event per day and I isolated the dates to one side and varied its size as well. I wanted to incorporate the idea of "art" by representing each course under the FA program, but I couldn't quite place it properly without the poster being too messy. :))
Toucans are members of the family Ramphastidae of near passerine birds from the Neotropics. The family is most closely related to the American barbets. They are brightly marked and have large, colorful bills. The family includes five genera and about forty different species. The name of this bird group is derived from Tupi tucana, via Portuguese.
Contents [show]
[edit]Morphology
Keel-billed Toucan at an animal shelter in Sámara, Costa Rica.
Toucans range in size from the Lettered Aracari (Pteroglossus inscriptus), at 130 g (4.6 oz) and 29 cm (11.5 inches), to the Toco Toucan (Ramphastos toco), at 680 g (1.5 lb) and 63 cm (29 inches). Their bodies are short (of comparable size to a crow's) and compact. The tail is rounded and varies in length, from half the length to the whole length of the body. The neck is short and thick. The wings are small, as they are forest-dwelling birds who only need to travel short distances, and are often of about the same span as the bill-tip-to-tail-tip measurements of the bird.
The legs of a toucan are strong and rather short. Their toes are arranged in pairs with the first and fourth toes turned backward. The majority of toucans do not show any sexual dimorphism in their coloration, the genus Selenidera being the most notable exception to this rule (hence their common name, "dichromatic toucanets"). However, the bills of female toucans are usually shorter, deeper and sometimes straighter, giving more of a "blocky" impression compared to male bills. The feathers in the genus containing the largest toucans are generally black, with touches of white, yellow, and scarlet. The underparts of the araçaris (smaller toucans) are yellow, crossed by one or more black or red bands. The toucanets have mostly green plumage with blue markings.
Keel-billed Toucan (Ramphastos sulfuratus)
The colorful, giant bill, which in some large species measure more than half the length of the body, is the hallmark of toucans. Despite its size it is very light, being composed of bone struts filled with spongy tissue of keratin[1] between them. The bill has forward-facing serrations resembling teeth, which historically led naturalists to believe that toucans captured fish and were primarily carnivorous; today it is known that they eat mostly fruit. Researchers have discovered that the large bill of the toucan is a highly efficient thermoregulation system, though its size may still be advantageous in other ways.[2][3] It does aid in their feeding behavior (as they sit in one spot and reach for all fruit in range, thereby reducing energy expenditure), and it has also been theorized that the bill may intimidate smaller birds, so that the toucan may plunder nests undisturbed (see Diet below). Also, the beak allows the bird to reach deep into tree-holes to access food unavailable to other birds, and also to ransack suspended nests built by smaller birds. However, as there is no sexual dimorphism in coloration it is unlikely to be a sexual signal.
A toucan's tongue is long (up to 14–15 cm, or 6 inches), narrow, grey, and singularly frayed on each side, adding to its sensitivity as an organ of taste.
A structural complex probably unique to toucans involves the modification of several tail vertebrae. The rear three vertebrae are fused and attached to the spine by a ball and socket joint. Because of this, toucans may snap their tail forwards until it touches the head.[4] This is the posture in which they sleep, often appearing simply as a ball of feathers, with the tip of the tail sticking out over the head.
Toucans are arboreal and typically lay 2–4 white eggs in their nests. They make their nests in tree hollows and holes excavated by other animals such as woodpeckers — the toucan bill has very limited use as an excavation tool. When the eggs hatch, the young emerge completely naked, without any down. Toucans are resident breeders and do not migrate. Toucans are usually found in pairs or small flocks. They sometimes fence with their bills and wrestle, which scientists hypothesize they do to establish dominance hierarchies.
[edit]Diet
Toucans, like this Red-breasted Toucan (Ramphastos dicolorus), nest in hollows in trees
Toucans are primarily frugivorous (fruit eating), but are opportunistically omnivorous and will take prey such as insects and small lizards.[5] Captive toucans have been reported to actively hunt insects in their cages, and it is possible to keep toucans on an insect-only diet. They also plunder nests of smaller birds, taking eggs and nestlings.[6] This probably provides a crucial addition of protein to their diet. However, in their range, toucans are the dominant frugivores, and as such play an extremely important ecological role as vectors for seed dispersal of fruiting trees.[7] Often when eating small fruits, toucans will throw their heads back and allow the fruit to roll into their throats before swallowing.
The vast interior has a complex structure. The nave is covered by a central dome which at its maximum is 55.6 m (182 ft 5 in) from floor level and rests on an arcade of 40 arched windows. Repairs to its structure have left the dome somewhat elliptical, with the diameter varying between 31.24 m (102 ft 6 in) and 30.86 m (101 ft 3 in).
At the western entrance side and eastern liturgical side, there are arched openings extended by half domes of identical diameter to the central dome, carried on smaller semi-domed exedras; a hierarchy of dome-headed elements built up to create a vast oblong interior crowned by the central dome, with a clear span of 76.2 m (250 ft 0 in) [wikipedia.org]
The Associated Society of Locomotive Engineers and Firemen (ASLEF) are an independent ‘craft’ union that represents the interests of railway train drivers and locomotive firemen. Other railway workers and administrative staff were represented by different trade unions with no direct connections to ASLEF. As such, members of ASLEF saw themselves as an elite within a hierarchy of railway workers having special status and highly paid in comparison.
ASLEF was founded in 1880 and today remain an independent trade union with some 18,500 members throughout Britain. Anyone know what year the Scottish District Council was established?
