Reference excerpt

The Westminster Rose Center is a performing arts and entertainment complex located in Westminster, California. It is the home of the Vietnamese American Philharmonic Orchestra and TNT Productions. It has also served as the host to many touring Broadway productions, dance companies, opera troupes, and was the temporary home of the Academy for the Performing Arts during the renovations of Huntington Beach High School.

History Groundbreaking for the center occurred in April 2001 with the official grand opening on July 21, 2006, thus taking 5 years to accomplish the building process. Originally named 'Westminster Community Cultural Center' on all city filed paperwork prior and during construction.

Operation The Rose Center Theater is operated by The Rose Center Foundation, a non-profit community volunteer group organized in 1999. The Rose Banquet Center is operated by Crystal Rose Catering, a catering and event company with offices on-site. Technical services for theatrical productions and banquet events is provided by The Backstage Supply Co. with offices on-site.

Facilities This 6,300-square-foot (590 m2) facility is capable of hosting conferences, meetings, receptions, parties, dances, banquets and other social or corporate events. It also accommodates smaller parties in each of three rooms, when space is divided by portable walls, or up to 500 diners when it is opened to full capacity. Menus are created and prepared by an international chef and guests are treated to black-tie service. Each ballroom has facilities for wireless internet, audio connections, custom lighting, and video projection. A/V interconnects from the theater to the ballrooms enable overflow audiences or meeting groups to use both areas of the Rose Center seamlessly.

Theater The theater seats 419 plus disabled seating and provides a universal venue for every type of entertainment. By use of the curtains, the stage can be altered for solo performances, town hall meetings, large scale musical comedy productions, choral, orchestra, ballet and on stage weddings. The versatile design features excellent acoustics and sightlines. Boxes on both sides of the stage on both upper and lower levels are utilized for musicians or for VIP seating. The backstage areas are fully equipped with lockers, showers, makeup and dressing areas. Theatrical entertainment equipment includes modern lighting, audio, and video systems. The theater is a Proscenium style stage with traveling curtains and no vertical fly system. Over stage and above audience lighting and rigging positions are accessed through a stretch wire grid system. The lighting system encompasses 192 dimming circuits, networked wired and wireless DMX512-A data connections, ETC and Altman lighting instruments, Strand dimming and control systems. The audio system includes JBL and EAW speakers arranged in a left-right-center orientation, Allen and Heath mixing console, Shure wireless microphones, and a Peavey Media Matrix DSP. Video systems currently consist of LCD projection screen located upstage of the main curtain with VHS, DVD, VGA, Betacam SP, High-8, Mini-DV and universal BNC inputs.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Westminster Rose Center

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Westminster Rose Center claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Westminster Rose Center before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Westminster Rose Center ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Westminster Rose Center

In research: Westminster Rose Center appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Westminster Rose Center in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Westminster Rose Center is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2006 establishments in California, Buildings and structures completed in 2006, Buildings and structures in Orange County, California, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Westminster Rose Center outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
