Patterson Springs, North Carolina
Patterson Springs is a town in Cleveland County, North Carolina, United States. The population was 622 at the 2010 census. History Patterson Springs was originally a small farming community called "Swangs", with only a train depot and a post office. William George Patterson bought the land that held three springs from the "Epps" family. Patterson hoped that the supposed healing powers of these springs would help heal his son, Billy, who had poor health. Eventually, news of the supposed healing powers of these springs spread, and Patterson created a thirty to forty room resort to house travelers and merchants. The resort, which was one of several in the area, mainly attracted people from North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. When the attendees of the resort were not at the springs, Patterson offered lawn bowling and a dance every Saturday night. In 1885, the name "Swangs confused the railroad people so they convinced the post office to change it to Patterson Springs and the ...

Patterson Plantation
The Patterson Plantation, also known as Holly Rock Farm, is a historic Federal style plantation house located on the edge of Durham in Orange County, North Carolina. The home was once the center of a 2,200-acre plantation dating back to the 18th-century. History The Patterson Plantation was first listed in a 1770 Collet Map as "I. Paterson", at the time it was owned by a planter named John Patterson, who built a cabin on the site. The family also operated a mill, known as Patterson's Mill, along New Hope Creek in what is now Duke Forest. The land later passed to Patterson's son, John Tapley Patterson. Upon his death, it passed to his son, Mann Patterson. Construction on the large Federal-style house began in 1834, shortly before the death of Patterson. His second wife Mary Cabe Patterson, who had inherited the 2,200-acre plantation, later completed the building. It was built at the intersection of Erwin and Whitfield Roads, less than a mile from Mt. Moriah Baptist Church. Th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Patterson–Gimlin Film
The Patterson–Gimlin film (also known as the Patterson film or the PGF) is an American short motion picture of an unidentified subject that the filmmakers have said was a Bigfoot. The footage was shot in 1967 in Northern California, and has since been subjected to many attempts to authenticate or debunk it. The footage was filmed alongside Bluff Creek, a tributary of the Klamath River, about northwest of Orleans, California, in Del Norte County on the Six Rivers National Forest. The film site is roughly south of Oregon and east of the Pacific Ocean. For decades, the exact location of the site was lost, primarily because of re-growth of foliage in the streambed after the flood of 1964. It was rediscovered in 2011. It is just south of a north-running segment of the creek informally known as "the bowling alley". The filmmakers were Roger Patterson (1933–1972) and Robert "Bob" Gimlin (born 1931). Patterson died of cancer in 1972 and "maintained right to the end that the cr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Patterson Viaduct
The Patterson Viaduct was built by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad (B&O) as part of its Old Main Line during May to December 1829. The viaduct spanned the Patapsco River at Ilchester, Maryland. It was heavily damaged by a flood in 1866 and subsequently replaced with other structures. History and design Original bridge The viaduct was constructed during the first building phase of the railroad, which extended from Baltimore, Maryland, to Ellicott's Mills (today's Ellicott City). The Patterson span at Ilchester, the third initial stone bridge built for the B&O, was similar in construction to the company's first bridge, the nearby Carrollton Viaduct further east spanning the Gwynns Falls and was named for B&O director and well known civic leader and merchant William Patterson who also donated land for Patterson Park in east Baltimore. It was designed by Caspar Wever and built under the supervision of John McCartney, one of Wever's assistants. McCartney's good work on the Patt ...

Patterson Syndrome
Patterson syndrome, also called pseudoleprechaunism, is an extremely rare syndrome, first mistaken as Donohue Syndrome (also known as Leprechaunism). It is named for Dr. Joseph Hanan Patterson. It was described by Patterson and Watkins in 1962. The pathogenesis and cause of the Patterson syndrome was unknown until 1981. Signs and symptoms Patterson syndrome is characterized by the patient's having an unusual facial look, similar to that caused by Leprechaunism. It primarily affects the connective tissue and the neuroendocrine system, giving rise to bronzed hyperpigmentation, cutis laxa of the hands and feet, bodily disproportion, intellectual disability, and major bony deformities. Radiographs reveal a characteristic generalised skeletal dysplasia. It comprises endocrine abnormality, hyperadrenocorticism, cushingoid features, and diabetes mellitus. One other case has shown premature adrenarche Adrenarche is an early stage in sexual maturation that happens in some higher primat ...

Patterson Function
The Patterson function is used to solve the phase problem in X-ray crystallography. It was introduced in 1935 by Arthur Lindo Patterson while he was a visiting researcher in the laboratory of Bertram Eugene Warren at MIT. The Patterson function is defined as :P(u,v,w) = \sum\limits_ \left, F_\^2 \;e^. It is essentially the Fourier transform of the intensities rather than the structure factors. The Patterson function is also equivalent to the electron density convolved with its inverse: :P\left(\vec\right) = \rho\left(\vec\right) * \rho\left(-\vec\right). Furthermore, a Patterson map of ''N'' points will have peaks, excluding the central (origin) peak and any overlap. The peaks' positions in the Patterson function are the interatomic distance vectors and the peak heights are proportional to the product of the number of electrons in the atoms concerned. Because for each vector between atoms ''i'' and ''j'' there is an oppositely oriented vector of the same length (between atoms ...

Patterson (radio Series)
''Patterson'' is a BBC Radio sitcom about a hapless university lecturer. It was billed as a comedy series in eight parts, written by Malcolm Bradbury and Christopher Bigsby but strictly speaking, it is a serial. The show was produced by Geoffrey Perkins and tells the tale of Doctor Andrew Patterson ( Lewis Fiander) who is cajoled by his wife Jane (Judy Parfitt) into accepting a job in the dysfunctional English department of a provincial red-brick university. This is the catalyst for a catalogue of unfortunate events, which sees his life rapidly crumble around him, bit by bit. ''Patterson'' is unusual amongst BBC Radio sitcoms in that it was originally broadcast on BBC Radio 3, and it appears to be the first ever sitcom broadcast on that station. Later examples include ''Broomhouse Reach'' (1984), ''Blood and Bruises'' (1988) and ''Such Rotten Luck'' (1989). The series was repeated on the BBC World Service in 1986 and on BBC Radio 4 Extra in 2020. Characters Main characte ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
