The Isom Asemic Code Cipher is a cryptogram code system. This form of cipher embodies geometric and organic shapes. Because it use basic shapes it is an economical and effective method of transmitting confidential information. These devices were often employed by the ancients or by the Medieval philosophers and alchemists. The mystics of the Middle Ages used a system of cryptography which concealed the secrets of the human soul. The Isom Asemic Code Cipher can only be decoded by individuals versed in the deep philosophic principles upon which many mystics based their theories of life. Much information relating to the invisible nature of man is hidden under what seems to be mere scribbles and unrecognizable organic shapes. Every student of symbolism and philosophy should be acquainted with the underlying principles of cryptography. This art furnishes a fascinating method of developing an acute mental awareness. Discrimination and observation are indispensable to the person seeking knowledge, and no study is equal to cryptography as a means of invigorating these powers.

The Boston Mills Historic District is being nominated under Criterion A for significance to the area of community development, and Criterion C for architectural significance and for representing a significant and distinguishable entity who's components may lack individual distinction. With the advent of the Ohio and Erie Canal in 1827, the town of Boston came into existence. Early tax records indicate that numerous stores and store houses were built in Boston to service the canal driven economy. The mid nineteenth century brought a period of industrial expansion to the village.

Several water-related industries, such as grist and lumber mills and boat building, were active during this period. In the late 19th century the town experienced another distinct phase of industrial development. In 1880 the Valley Railroad opened a train depot in the town and in 1900 the Akron Bag Company built on a site across from the town along the west bank of the river. Architecturally, the village contains some very good examples of Greek Revival architecture that characterized early New England settlement in the Western Reserve, and many modest vernacular residences typical of company town housing of the late 19th century. Collectively, this building stock reflects 19th century development trends that impacted settlements in the Cuyahoga River Valley.

Boston Mills represents a significant entity in that its contributing resources and their setting constitute the built environment and landscape of a small rural village. The natural boundaries of the river and the steep valley walls define the village. Aspects of the setting that help convey the community's character include the curving streets, irregular setbacks of the buildings, and the lack of sidewalks. Remaining agricultural buildings in the village, such as the barns and corn cribs, indicate the mix of urban and rural land uses that characterize small rural villages. The common spaces in the community, such as the village school, general stores and the village cemetery, convey a sense of place.

Although the Cleveland-Akron Bag Company closed in 1923, the period of significance was extended to 1927. This was done to incorporate 2 houses and the bridge. Like most of the district's contributing resources, these resources reflect the materials and construction practices of the early 20th century and should be considered integral parts of the historic district. The sense of an historic area is conveyed through the cohesiveness of the resources and the extent to which they maintain their historic integrity. Bounded by the river and the steep valley walls, Boston Mills has changed very little since the early 20th century; it maintains its integrity of setting, location, feeling and association. Original street patterns, materials, height, massing, roof types and fenestration patterns – those features that constitute integrity of design, workmanship, and materials -- further contribute to the district's visual cohesion. The large plate girder bridge for Interstate 271 that passes overhead to the southeast of the district almost acts as a metaphor, symbolizing how the town has been somewhat bypassed by modern development pressures and building practices.

As I stood there admiring the sunrise and bliss of the environment and I am just at ease where I could smell the fresh salt water and cool breeze and birds chirping crows going kaw! I was at peace I had no worries about college about family about my future it just felt to be in the moment and feeling a still,feeling the moment and most important taking a break

Refers to a situation where someone or something is very obviously trying to pass off as something he's not - and for no apparent reason.

If a town were to have more water towers, each at the same height, each kg of water would still have the same amount of potential energy, and thus would arrive at the tap with the same speed. It wouldn't affect the flow rate at all. But, more water would be available before having to pump.

 

The equivalent in the world of batteries are the various cell sizes of alkaline batteries. AAA, AA, C, D (or for that matter A, B, and F, still available as pieces of other, larger batteries) differ only in the amounts of chemical they have, not in what chemicals there are. Thus, they all have the same electron pressure, or voltage, which is 1.5 volts. The D-Cells just take longer to run out than the AAA.

The Tree of Utah is an 87-foot (27 m) sculpture that was created by the Swedish artist Karl Momen in the 1980s and dedicated in 1986. It is located in the desolate Great Salt Lake Desert of Utah on the north side of I-80 about 25 miles east of Wendover.

West Boulevard Library was honored to host a Community Health and Wellness Day inspired by “Men of Change: Power. Triumph. Truth.”, a collaborative exhibit between The Harvey B. Gantt Center for African-American Arts + Culture and Levine Museum of the New South. This day featured the Levine Museum’s fourth Community of Change conversation, creating a safe space for black men and boys in the community to have a dialogue for needs and resources impacting mental health. In addition, several community organizations provided diverse, health-based activities for adults, children, and teens.
