Handbook of Texas Online: HOUSTON HEIGHTS, TX The city of Houston Heights incorporated in 1896, though the Omaha and South Texas Land Company was forced to liquidate its assets that year, due to the effects of the panic of 1893. By that time more than 100 Houston Heights structures were listed in the National Register of Historic Places, and the suburb was a member of the Texas Urban Main Street program, which sought to revitalize the area. Houston Heights, a suburb of Houston four miles north of the downtown area in central Harris County, was built on and named for its site on high land, bordered by White Oak Bayou. www.tsha.utexas.edu /handbook/online/articles/view/HH/hvhab.html

Encyclopedia article: Geopotential height In the geosciences, geopotential height is a measure of geometric height that accounts for the dependence of gravity (A solemn and dignified feeling) on latitude and height. Geopotential height contours can be used to calculate the geostrophic wind (additional info and facts about geostrophic wind), which blows stronger where the contours are more closely spaced and tangential to the isolines. In atmospheric equations of motion, such as the primitive equations (additional info and facts about primitive equations), geopotential height is used to eliminate centrifugal force (The outward force on a body moving in a curved path around another body) and air density (The amount per unit size). www.absoluteastronomy.com /encyclopedia/g/ge/geopotential_height.htm   (194 words)

Metacentric height - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Technically, there are different metacentric heights for any combination of pitch and roll motion, depending on the moment of inertia of the waterplane area of the ship around the axis of rotation under consideration, but they are normally only calculated and stated as specific values for the limiting pure pitch and roll motions. The metacentric height is important because the righting force is proportional to the metacentric height times the sine of the angle of heel. The distance between the centre of gravity and the metacentre is called the metacentric height, and is usually between one and two metres. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Metacentric_height   (753 words)

Vowel Theories Vowels are dispersed in the phonetic space (tongue position, rounding) in such a way as to maximize auditory differences among the vowels. When phoneticians listen to a audio recording of a vowel in an unknown language that is not found on the primary cardinal vowel "slice", they may not be able to tell whether the the vowel is a front rounded or a back unrounded vowel--they cannot separate position in the space from rounding. Vowels were assumed to be spaced at auditorily equal intervals of tongue position. www.ling.yale.edu:16080 /ling120/Vowels/Vowel_Theories.html   (251 words)
