Summary:
Many years ago as a graduate student studying William Langland’s Vision of Piers Plowman, I came upon what was evidently a popular scatological riddle pertaining to a profound theological teaching. Since that time I have continued to ruminate over the role of humor—especially sexual and scatological humor—arising from within vernacular Catholicism. In this talk, I will consider the serious play of such forms of expression and their significance for folklorists concerned with the nature of belief in the sacred.

Summary:
Designed to be used with an engineering drawing text. Describes the relationship between the making of a drawing and various production operations in shop and factory. Then shows representative operations in the pattern shop, the foundry, the forge shop, the machine shop, and the assembly shop which depend upon the drawing.
Shows the Leonardo da Vinci drawings in the Windsor collection and includes such subjects as man, animals, architecture, machines for waging war, water in motion, and a sketch for "The Last Supper."

Explains misconceptions concerning the purpose, suspension or revocation of, and prerequisites for a driver's license. Presents a desirable driver's license program. (Cincinnati Public School and WCET) Kinescope.
Describes a geometric circle and defines and illustrates such terms as radius, congruent circles, chord, diameter, major and minor arcs, semicircles, and central angle. Shows the relationship between a central angle and its arc; presents methods for proving arcs equal in degrees and length; and describes the relationships of a diameter, a chord, and its intersected arcs.
Shows man's first effort to count with symbols, and demonstrates how Egyptian and Babylonian mathematic have contributed to our present number system. Stresses this contribution in terms of the essential elements of a modern numeration system: base, place, symbols, zero, decimal point. Through models, demonstrates and explains certain physical methods of writing and reckoning with numbers. Devices shown are the English tally stick, quipa, abacus, and counting board. From these, such words and ideas are identified as "sock, bank, carry", and "borrow". (University of Michigan Television) Kinescope.

"We'd learned that, it's no surprise, people with disabilities were the most underserved group in the mortgage and lending industry." In this video, Deborah McCarty explains the launching of the Back Home in Indiana Alliance in 1997. The original focus of the Alliance was on increasing low rates of home ownership among people with disabilities. Since then it has worked to advocate for a larger supply of integrated housing in the state that is both affordable and accessible. Deborah discusses the partnerships that have been instrumental in the Alliance's work and in its recognition by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development as one of 100 best partnerships in the country. Deborah, who is Executive Director of the Back Home in Indiana Alliance, was interviewed in 2017.
Explains centrifugal force and its relationship to the establishment of an earth satellite. Shows the three-stage missile and the part it might play in the formation of a satellite. Outlines various possible orbits of such a satellite. (New Mexico College of A. & M.A.)
Discusses some of the problems related to the recovery of a multi-stage rocket used to establish and maintain an earth satellite. Describes the recovery, by parachute or glider technique, of the first two stages of a three stage missile. Outlines how the third stage of such a rocket would return to the earth. (New Mexico College of A. & M.A.)
Shows heavy equipment of all types used by the Corps of Engineers and the Seabees during World War II. Describes how the "work power" of military construction units clears beaches of mines, constructs new roads, builds bridges and airstrips, and sets up water purification systems. Contrasts the pre-technological building techniques of China, India, and Africa with the technological might of the U.S. military.

This project intended to study the relationship between shift work (specifically third shift), and its effects on depression and anxiety symptoms. Working nights has shown to have serious negative side effects on one’s physical and mental health. Hypotheses were made that those working third shift would experience higher levels of depression and anxiety symptoms than those who did not work overnight. Participants surveyed in this research worked either first, second, third or a rotating shift, and were asked questions pertaining to levels of anxiety and depression in a typical work week. After analyzing the data from all eligible participants, the study found that there were significantly higher levels of depression in those working third shift, rather than first shift, and that there were significantly higher levels of anxiety in those working second shift rather than first shift.
Reviews significant events in Eisenhower's career as a soldier, his years as President, and his retirement. Pictures the inaugural ceremony in 1953 and depicts such events as the Supreme Court decision on integration, the McCarthy investigations, and various international crises.

Discusses the basic elements of painting--line, form, color, and texture--as well as those of music and poetry. Clarifies the meaning of these elements with charcoal drawings, musical selections, and poetry readings.
Take melody – add harmony – rhythm – counterpoint and you have a musical composition, one element at a time. Members of the New York Woodwind Quintet return to explain and illustrate the component parts of music. Two young students of flute and clarinet play a duet by Tellemann to illustrate counterpoint. In closing, a familiar melody is selected and the children themselves choose the components for their own composition.
