U.S. Geological Survey National Center visitor entrance in 2011. The approximately 1,000,000 sq. ft., 1,200 foot long U.S. Geological Survey National Center building sits on a 105-acre site. The building was built in part to embody the Survey's mission. Notably, the main tower’s eight-pointed star shape symbolizes the cardinal points of a ...
The USGS Coastal and Marine Science Center (formerly the USGS Center for Coastal Geology) has three sites, one for the Atlantic Ocean (located in Woods Hole, Massachusetts), one for the Pacific Ocean (located in Santa Cruz, California) and one for the Gulf of Mexico (located on the University of South Florida's St. Petersburg campus). The goal ...
Polio involving L5 (foot drop may also be seen because L5 innervates the tibialis anterior muscle). [3] Damage to the superior gluteal nerve. Temporary or permanent weakness of the lateral glutei Tendinitis. Penetrating injury. Infection, abscess – blood borne, post-traumatic or post-surgical.
The first documented pedobarographic study was published in 1882 and used rubber and ink to record foot pressures. [1] Numerous studies using similar apparatus were conducted in the early- and mid-twentieth century, [1] [2] but it was not until the advent of the personal computer that electronic apparatus were developed and that pedobarography became practical for routine clinical use.

The Core Research Center is a facility run by the United States Geological Survey, located in "F" bay in building 810 on the Denver Federal Center campus. It is maintained by the USGS to preserve valuable rock cores, well cuttings and various other geologic samples for use by scientists and educators from government, industry and academia.
A stance with the left foot forward is called "regular" or "normal" stance. Jump and spin Direction of rotation in figure skating jumps and spins is not necessarily the same as the footedness or the handedness of each person. A skater can jump and spin counter-clockwise (the most common direction), yet be left-footed and left-handed. Ocular ...
A slug test is a variation on the typical aquifer test where an instantaneous change (increase or decrease) is made, and the effects are observed in the same well. This is often used in geotechnical engineering settings to get a quick estimate (minutes instead of days) of the aquifer properties immediately around the well.
