109 New York City
[ˏnju:ˊjɔ:rksɪtɪ] г. Нью-Йорк, крупнейший город США — 7,3 млн. жителей ( без пригородов). Прозвища: «большое яблоко» [*Big Apple], «имперский город» [*Empire City], «город развлечений» [*Fun City]. Житель: ньюйоркец [New Yorker]. Ассоциации: Манхаттан, Бродвей, Статуя Свободы, Уолл-стрит, штаб-квартира ООН, Бруклин, Брайтон-Бич и др. Хотя формально Нью-Йорк состоит из пяти районов: Манхаттан [*Manhattan], Куинс [*Queens], Бруклин [*Brooklyn], Бронкс [*Bronx] и Ричмонд/Статен-Айленд [Richmond II/*Staten Island], каждый житель Нью-Йорка считает, что центром города, его «сити», является Манхаттан. Напр., жители Флашинга [Flushing] в Куинсе говорят о поездке «в город» [to the city], имея в виду Манхаттан. Некоторые жители Бруклина годами не пересекают Ист-Ривер [*East River] и считают, что они живут в относительно тихом городке вдали от сутолоки «большого города» [Big Town]. А на Статен-Айленде есть фермеры, которые ни разу в жизни не отваживались на путешествие в Манхаттан. Тем не менее, все они считают себя ньюйоркцами и очень гордятся тем районом, в котором живут. Для туристов Нью-Йорк — это Манхаттан, преимущественно центральная его часть, между 34- й и 96-й улицами. В этом относительно небольшом районе сосредоточены самые фешенебельные отели, роскошные рестораны, самые знаменитые театры, кино, музеи, лучшие магазины. Нью-Йорк — это центр большого бизнеса, крупнейший финансовый центр мирового масштаба. Наличие в нём штаб-квартиры ООН делает его и политической столицей мира. Этническая пестрота его населения общеизвестна: есть такие уголки в городе, где не услышишь английского. Нью-Йорк — центр всех средств массовой информации. Из издаваемых ныне трёх ежедневных газет по крайней мере две — «Нью-Йорк таймс» [*‘New York Times’] и «Нью-Йорк дейли ньюс» [‘New York Daily News’] имеют общенациональное распространение. Нью-Йорк — центр культурной жизни США. В творческой жизни невозможно сделать карьеру, не получив признания в Нью-Йорке. В мире театра каждый актёр, драматург, режиссёр, художник, певец, танцор, музыкант и композитор испытывают на себе притягательную силу Бродвея. Живописцы, скульпторы, писатели всех жанров, карикатуристы, куплетисты, мастера и шарлатаны, все устремляют свой взор на Нью-Йорк. Нью-Йорк — центр туризма, американцы считают своим долгом побывать в этом современном Вавилоне, поглазеть на небоскрёбы, походить по фешенебельным и не столь уж фешенебельным магазинам, попробовать экзотические блюда в многочисленных ресторанах и кафе этнических районов — этих островков разных культур [culture islands], и затем, вернувшись домой, ещё раз повторить: «Нью-Йорк интересно посмотреть, но жить там не хочется» [‘New York is a great place to visit but you wouldn’t want to live there’].

В войне 1812 победа Оливера Перри [*Perry, Oliver H.] на оз. Эри и вторжение в Канаду Уильяма Харрисона [*Harrison, William] в 1813 положили конец английским притязаниям на территорию Огайо.

116 Bullard, Edward Payson
SUBJECT AREA: Mechanical, pneumatic and hydraulic engineering[br]b. 18 April 1841 Uxbridge, Massachusetts, USAd. 22 December 1906 Bridgeport, Connecticut, USA[br]American mechanical engineer and machine-tool manufacturer who designed machines for boring.[br]Edward Payson Bullard served his apprenticeship at the Whitin Machine Works, Whitinsville, Massachusetts, and worked at the Colt Armory in Hartford, Connecticut, until 1863; he then entered the employ of Pratt \& Whitney, also in Hartford. He later formed a partnership with J.H.Prest and William Parsons manufacturing millwork and tools, the firm being known as Bullard \& Prest. In 1866 Bullard organized the Norwalk Iron Works Company of Norwalk, Connecticut, but afterwards withdrew and continued the business in Hartford. In 1868 the firm of Bullard \& Prest was dissolved and Bullard became Superintendent of a large machine shop in Athens, Georgia. He later organized the machine tool department of Post \& Co. at Cincinnati, and in 1872 he was made General Superintendent of the Gill Car Works at Columbus, Ohio. In 1875 he established a machinery business in Beekman Street, New York, under the name of Allis, Bullard \& Co. Mr Allis withdrew in 1877, and the Bullard Machine Company was organized.In 1880 Bullard secured entire control of the business and also became owner of the Bridgeport Machine Tool Works, Bridgeport, Connecticut. In 1883 he designed his first vertical boring and turning mill with a single head and belt feed and a 37 in. (94 cm) capacity; this was the first small boring machine designed to do the accurate work previously done on the face plate of a lathe. In 1889 Bullard gave up his New York interests and concentrated his entire attention on manufacturing at Bridgeport, the business being incorporated in 1894 as the Bullard Machine Tool Company. The company specialized in the construction of boring machines, the design being developed so that it became essentially a vertical turret lathe. After Bullard's death, his son Edward Payson Bullard II (b. 10 July 1872 Columbus, Ohio, USA; d. 26 June 1953 Fairfield, Connecticut, USA) continued as head of the company and further developed the boring machine into a vertical multi-spindle automatic lathe which he called the "Mult-au-matic" lathe. Both father and son were members of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.[br]Further ReadingJ.W.Roe, 1916, English and American Tool Builders, New Haven: Yale University Press; repub. 1926, New York and 1987, Bradley, Ill.: Lindsay Publications Inc.

117 Woods, Granville
[br]b. 1856 Columbus, Ohio, USAd. 1919 New York (?), USA[br]African-American inventor of electrical equipment.[br]He was first apprenticed in Columbus as a machinist and blacksmith. In 1872 he moved to Missouri, where he was engaged as a fireman and then engine-driver on the Iron Mountain Railroad. In his spare time he devoted much time to the study of electrical engineering. In 1878 he went to sea for two years as engineer on a British vessel. He returned to Ohio, taking up his previous occupation as engine-driver, and in 1884 he achieved his first patent, for a locomotive firebox. However, the drive towards things electrical was too strong and he set up the Woods Electric Company in Cincinnati, Ohio, to develop and market electrical inventions. Woods gained some fame as an inventor and became known as the "black Edison ". His first device, a telephone transmitter, was patented in December 1884 but faced stiff competition from similar inventions by Alexander Graham Bell and others. The following year he patented a device for transmitting messages in Morse code or by voice that was valuable enough to be bought up by the Bell Telephone Company. A stream of inventions followed, particularly for railway telegraph and electrical systems. This brought him into conflict with Edison, who was working in the same field. The US Patent Office ruled in Woods's favour; as a result of the ensuing publicity, one newspaper hailed Woods as the "greatest electrician in the world". In 1890 Woods moved to New York, where the opportunities for an electrical engineer seemed more favourable. He turned his attention to inventions that would improve the tram-car. One device enabled electric current to be transferred to the car with less friction than previously, incorporating a grooved wheel known as a "troller", whence came the popular term "trolley car".[br]Further ReadingP.P.James, 1989, The Real McCoy: African-American Invention and Innovation 1619– 1930, Washington, DC: Smithsonian Institution, pp. 94–5.LRD -
