The Terrace

meaning in their life, personal growth, or an experience with their inner self. The expression of spirituality at Terrace extends back to the initial creation of the school. At St Josephs Gregory Terrace, the idea of spirituality plays a momentous role in the devolvement and introduction of students into the Terrace gentleman and moreover, the Terrace community. My spiritual growth at Terrace since 2010 has significantly developed and has been encouraged by a myriad of activities throughout the…

living in a small northern community with few amenities can be challenging; Terrace taught me the value in making the best out of experiences, be they positive or negative. Grateful for the slower pace of life allowed, I can appreciate the beautiful life canvas Terrace has provided me. Terrace taught me that I can paint my life canvas with experiences that contribute to my happiness. As a teenager, I believed Terrace to be a sleepy little town that lacked what would contribute to my happiness…

Zealand and then will examine how both these concepts influence the geomorphology, whether affecting separate aspects of the landscape or combining and working together. Examples of contemporary processes will be discussed; these include fluvial terraces, the axial ranges, Lake Tutira, and the tectonic setting of Hawke’s Bay. Quaternary Climate Change Quaternary climate change is one factor that has played a strong influence in the…

This study shows that the resulting terraces in the study area were influenced by both tectonic setting and the quaternary climate. Figure 3 (Litchfield & Berryman, 2005, pg 295): Cross section of a fluvial terrace and relationship with loess and tephra sediments. The fluvial terrace in figure 3 (above) used loess and tephra sediments to determine the age of the terrace. The sediment has formed through erosion during the LGM, which has caused fill and cut terraces throughout the study area…

Often, especially in the most modern and current times, love is regarded as a secondary objective that occurs without special heed in life. However, in a religious context, love can be interpreted as an entity that should be necessarily deliberate. For example, in Dante Alighieri's Purgatorio– an exploration of the purgatory preceding heaven, or ‘Paradiso’– Dante aligns the evolution of sin with how or towards what love is directed. Love is more complicated in Dante’s framework than most would…

ziggurat was built. The ziggurat, at this time, was built and dedicated to the moon god Nanna. Built by the king of Ur, this was the first ziggurat the sumerians had ever created. Later in the 6th century BCE, king Nabonidus of Ur replaced the upper two terraces. Because it was built using mud bricks, we can infer that weathering and erosion took its toll on the ziggurat, and it had to be replaced and maintained every couple hundred years. When the sumerian population died out, the ziggurat was…

(Purg 16.82-85) For this canto, it is important to keep in mind that Dante is not just in the middle of his journey through Purgatory, but also the entire afterlife. Purgatorio 16 is the 50th canto of all the comedy and takes place in the third terrace, which is for wrathfulness. Here Dante encounters Marco from Lombardy, who is suspected to have been a counselor and diplomat a Northern Italian prince. He was known to have been virtuous and generous. In the canto, Marco tells Dante that he knew…

Depending on the environmental conditions three types of terraces were constructed, hillslope contour terraces, semi terraces, and cross channel terraces. The most common being the former, which ran parallel to the slop of the hill. Stones were piled before the wall was filled by digging into the side of the hill causing the terrace to fill (Smith,1996). In some areas water would have been supplied through aqueducts to water the terraces. Raised fields, or chinampas were used and mastered by…

home when she lived at Waikki, the seaside home, with Anna’s old governess. At this home she see’s how miserable Windsor Terrace is and begins to understand what a real home should feel like. Xioatian explains the emotions Portia’s begins to feel after living in Waikki and discovering the cold place Windsor Terrace is, “After the cautious quiet and isolation of Windsor Terrace, Portia is dazzled by Waikiki’s life-giving force that releases rather than represses human feeling.” (Xiotian). Waikki…

The second floor has a study are surrounded by a balcony and terrace. As stated by John Allan many aspects of the house are similar with one of the works La Corbusier. According to the book Lubetkin by John Allan , Harding experimented with the “full gamut” of Corbusian devices, with duplex spaces, pilots, sculptural…
