Transit of Venus

This is the most commonly cited source that is proposed to have been used for this composition by Titian and appears in the front to Arthur Pope’s analysis of the painting for the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum where the painting resides. This text provides the most vital pieces of information; that the painting shows Zeus in the form of a bull who has seduced Europa with his beauty and kindness, only to run off with her against her will. This source is further connected to Titian because, in…

The Venus flytrap is a plant native to wetlands on the East Coast of the United States in North Carolina and South Carolina. The scientific name for the Venus Fly Trap is Dionaea Muscipula. It’s one of the most fascinating plants to have ever existed due to its omnivorous nature. Darwin noted, “‘I care more for Drosera than the origin of species ... it is a wonderful plant, or rather a most sagacious animal. I will stick up for Drosera to the day of my death.” The Venus flytrap reproduces by…

Los Angeles is a place where people of different social backgrounds lead increasingly separate, parallel lives. Individuals from all social backgrounds participate in routine activities in micro-spaces throughout the city such as purchasing a cup of coffee or riding the bus to work. These people can be a student going to school or a senior citizen out on a stroll. Even though they may cross paths and share certain spaces on a consistent basis, that does not mean that they live identical lives.…

long-term development planning of the Republic of Indonesia, urban railway transportation infrastructure build in many places , some of those projects are, APMS (Automatic People Mover System) project at the Soekarno-Hatta Airport, MRT (Mass Rapid Transit ) project in Jakarta, LRT (Light Rail Train) project in Jakarta, Palembang, Bandung , Surabaya and High-speed train Jakarta-Bandung project .

the house because he was scared of Mr. Shears. In Christopher’s book he wrote “ And then I heard Mother’s voice and she was shouting, ‘Christopher…? Christopher…’ and she was running down the road, so I came out from between the skip and the Ford Transit van and she ran up to me and said, ‘Jesus Christ,’ and she stood in front of me and pointed her finger in my face and said, ‘ If you ever do that again, I swear to God, Christopher, I love you, but… I don’t know what I’ll do.” Judy panic the…

According to Jonathan, mass transit system did not die a natural death, rather it was a well-planned mission that was executed by General Motors to kill it. General Motors was an auto mobile company that produced and sold auto mobiles. During that time profits were going down and the need for gaining market share on the high number of Americans that depended on transport system arose, but it was at the expense of another transport system, the mass transit of street cars as GM and other oil…

involves 23 kilometers of new dedicated rapid transit from Port Credit Go Station in Mississauga to Gateway Terminal (Steeles Avenue) in Brampton (Infrastructure Ontario, n.d.). The project includes the construction of stations, shaft tunnel, tracks, overhead sign structures and related infrastructure facilities (Infrastructure Ontario, n.d.). There will be a total of 22 surface stops along the line that will serve, two urban growth centers, two Go Transit Rail lines, three mobility hubs and…

Light Rail Transit is the most recent innovation in public transport technology and is regarded by many major municipalities across Canada as the next step in the evolution of their public transit systems. Many municipalities have begun plans to implement LRT within the near future, and Hamilton is one of them (“Ten Year Local Transit Strategy”). Light Rail Transit has many benefits: it is relatively inexpensive to produce, and the cars themselves are high capacity (about 280 people in a…

Vehicle Sharing Program (PEVSP) 1.1 Electric Vehicle The second initiative of this scenario is to establish a Public Electric Vehicle Sharing Program (PEVSP). BBRT aims to change San Francisco’s travel pattern from driving to walking, bicycling and transit. However, there are still about 350,000 private vehicles in the city. Even they are not using as usual; they are a huge potential emission source. PEVSP is a way to replace these existing internal combustion vehicles to reduce GHG emissions…

Figure 3. Unlinked public transit trips by urbanized area in 2013, National Transit Database. New York’s public transportation system considerably impacts the geography of the City. Due to the people-driven nature of mass transit use, areas with developed transportation systems often facilitate more compact infrastructural projects to conserve and maximize space. Public transportation directly drives this high-density land development, and effectively reduces the distance people need to travel…
