Joggling
Joggling is a competitive sport that combines juggling with jogging. People who joggle are called jogglers.Beck, S. (2012, October 18).Joggling the Marathon: 3 Beanbags and 26.2 Miles. ''The New York Times''. Retrieved froSeptember 11, 2001. The most common objects used in joggling are juggling balls, or sometimes juggling clubs, but any set of three or more objects can be used. However, in competitions or long term events, most jogglers prefer to use palm-size beanbags stuffed with birdseed because they are light enough for long distances but heavy enough to withstand winds. The juggling is usually done in a three-ball cascade pattern, which is efficient and uses the least energy. Jogglers say that the arm motions of juggling with three objects feels natural with the action and pace of jogging. Rules The rules that define joggling in competitions and races are: #A juggling pattern must be maintained while running. #If an object is dropped, the joggler must return to the poin ...

Joggle Bending
Bending is a manufacturing process that produces a V-shape, U-shape, or channel shape along a straight axis in ductile materials, most commonly sheet metal.Manufacturing Processes Reference Guide, Industrial Press Inc., 1994. Commonly used equipment include box and pan brakes, brake presses, and other specialized machine presses. Typical products that are made like this are boxes such as electrical enclosures and rectangular ductwork. Process In press brake forming, a work piece is positioned over the die block and the die block presses the sheet to form a shape. Usually bending has to overcome both tensile stresses and compressive stresses. When bending is done, the residual stresses cause the material to ' towards its original position, so the sheet must be over-bent to achieve the proper bend angle. The amount of spring back is dependent on the material, and the type of forming. When sheet metal is bent, it stretches in length. The ''bend deduction'' is the amount the ...

Joggle (architecture)
A joggle is a joint or projection that interlocks blocks (such as a lintel's stone blocks or an arch's voussoirs). Often joggles are semicircular and knob-shaped, so joggled stones have a jigsaw- or zigzag-like pattern. Joggling can be found in pre-Frankish buildings, in Roman Spain and Roman France. In Islamic architecture, the earliest joggles were in the desert castles of the Umayyad Caliphate, such as Qasr al-Hayr al-Sharqi. In Mamluk architecture, joggling is usually combined with ablaq (alternating colors). Joggling also characterize Ottoman architecture Ottoman architecture is the architectural style that developed under the Ottoman Empire.

Joggling Board
A joggling or jostling board is a long, pliable board that is supported on each end by wooden stands. The board is springy and a person sitting on it can easily bounce up and down. Sources differ on the origin; its usage in the Lowcountry of South Carolina around Charleston in the early 19th century is however rather well-documented. Traditionally, it is painted Charleston green. The joggling board's popularity has slowly been coming back, mostly as decorations on lawns and front porches. Martha Graham bought several joggling boards from Old Charleston Joggling Board Coon a visit to Charleston and used them as props in her dancMaple Leaf Rag Photos from the rehearsals show the variety of ways the board was used. The company posed with Graham on these boards for the New York Times. Construction The main board preferably should be between 10 and 16 feet (3 to 5 meters) long and wide enough to sit on. Traditionally the boards were made from the flexible wood of a southern y ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
