Comparison Of Responses To Weight Training In Prepubescent And Adult Males, Margaret M. Sailors

Student Work

The effect of overload training on adults has been considered for thousands of years. Centuries before Christ, Milo of Crotona carried a calf on his back daily until the animal was full-grown, resulting in one of the earliest accounts of the overload principle (Bergan & Scoles, 1979). Results of overload training on adults have been well documented (Tanner, 1952; Hellebrandt & Houtz, 1958; Berger,1962a; 1962b; Rasch & Pierson, 1963; Berger & Hardage, 1967; Stull & Clark, 1970; Leighton, Holmes, Benson, Wooten & Schmerer, 1967; Wilmore, 1975; Gettman, Ward & Hager, 1982). However, how overload affects children and adolescents is barely …

Heg83-183 Negotiating With Creditors, Kathleen Prochaska-Cue

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

At some time, almost everyone gets behind in paying a bill. This publication offers suggestions about how to deal with creditors during those times.

The Problem

Due to some unexpected event, you are behind on your bills and don't expect to be able to catch up in the next month or two. You may have lost your job, or have had large medical bills.

You make promises to pay you can't keep; checks bounce, or you receive threats from creditors (people to whom you owe money) that they will sue or turn the account over to a collection agency.

Your …

G83-684 Row Crop Planters: Equipment Adjustments And Performance In Conservation Tillage, Elbert C. Dickey, Paul J. Jasa

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide discusses planters used in conservation tillage systems and gives recommendations for improving planter performance.

The planter's primary job is to place seed where it will germinate and grow. Proper seed spacing minimizes competition for the light, nutrients and soil moisture essential for crop growth.

Several factors influence planter performance, including adjustments and correct operation. Field conditions also are important.

Traditionally, producers used tillage equipment that created a well-tilled, residue-free seedbed for planting. Many producers now are adopting conservation tillage methods that have fewer tillage operations and leave a protective residue cover on the soil surface.

G83-659 Irrigating Onions, C. Dean Yonts, David Nuland, Paul Fischbach

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide outlines the onion's water requirements as it develops through the season and how to best meet them to assure marketable grade and optimum yield.

Growing an irrigationd crop of onions is a very involved process. This is because the onion is a shallow rooted biennial that depends on daylength and temperature for the development of the marketable product—the bulb.

G83-674 Hazardous Waste Management Requirements For Pesticide Applicators (Revised November 1987), Edward F. Vitzthum, Roger E. Gold, Emery W. Nelson, Larry D. Schulze

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide is to inform Nebraska pesticide applicators about selected provisions of federal and state hazardous waste laws and regulations.

Congress passed the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) because of widespread indiscriminate disposal of hazardous chemicals. Under provisions of that law, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has established national standards for proper management of hazardous wastes. "Management," as EPA uses the term, includes generating, transporting, storing, treating and disposing of hazardous waste.

G83-652 Seeding And Renovating Alfalfa, Bruce Anderson, James T. Nichols

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide discusses alfalfa production, including site selection and preparation, fertilization, variety selection, seeding, companion crops, stand management, weed control and stand renovation.

Alfalfa can produce more protein per acre than any other crop in Nebraska. Up to 100 percent of the protein needs of most livestock can be supplied by alfalfa in addition to large amounts of vitamins, minerals, and energy.

G83-664 Space Heaters: Safe Or Unsafe? (Revised June 1992), Gerald R. Bodman, David Morgan

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide discusses safety problems associated with using space heaters, and provides precautions for use and recommendations on what to look for when purchasing one.

Space heaters or portable heaters--no matter what they are called--must be used correctly to avoid personal injury. Anyone using these heating devices should know about their wide range of safety problems.

Heg83-173 Follow That Grainline, Linda K. Biles

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This publication covers the importance of following fabric grainline in pattern layout and cutting, staystitching, sewing seams, pressing, topstitching and fitting for a professional-looking garment.

Strict attention to the grainline is one of the most critical factors in cutting and sewing professional-looking garments. Following the grainline is important when pinning the pattern to the fabric, cutting the fabric, and sewing the garment.

G83-655 Management Of Early Weaned Calves, Paul Q. Guyer

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide discusses the benefits and disadvantages of weaning beef calves early, including rations and methods for both drylot and pasture-grain feeding programs.

Early weaning of beef calves is a management practice that should be considered under situations such as fall calving, drylot cow-calf production and drought. In areas where forage quality is very poor in late summer and early fall, early weaning might also be considered as a regular practice. Early weaning can enhance the efficiency of drylot cow-calf operations by allowing greater use of poor quality roughages by the cow herd.

G83-651 Nebraska's Solar Heated Modified-Open-Front Swine Nursery, Michael F. Kocher, Gerald R. Bodman, C.J. Kisling-Crouch

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide discusses the design features of this unique swine nursery, including ventilation, heating and energy conservation factors, and manure handling systems.

A warm environment is essential for young pigs. High fuel costs and the practice of heating entire buildings brought about the design and testing of solar heated nurseries on several farms.

G83-675 Yield Grades And Quality Grades For Lamb Carcasses, Dennis E. Burson, Ted Doane

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide discusses yield and quality grades for lamb carcasses and their importance to producers.

Lamb carcass grades when applied by a USDA meat grader must consist of a yield grade and a quality grade. Yield grades estimate the percentage of closely trimmed, boneless retail cuts from the leg, loin, rib and shoulder. Quality grades indicate the palatability or eating characteristics of lamb.

Evaluating lamb carcasses for USDA Yield and Quality Grades recognizes carcasses with traits that influence live animal and carcass value, and identifies breeding animals that produce lambs of superior carcass merit.

G83-681 Velvetleaf, Fred Roeth, Russell Moomaw, Alex Martin, Orvin Burnside

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide provides guidelines on how to control velvetleaf by prevention, cultural and mechanical methods, and by use of recommended herbicides.

Velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrasti Medic.), a member of the Mallow family, is related to cotton, hollyhocks, and numerous weeds. Other common names include buttonweed, Indian mallow, butterprint, piemarker, velvetweed, and cottonweed. The preferred name, velvetleaf, amply describes its velvety-textured, hairy-surfaced leaves.

A native of China and presumably introduced into the U.S. from India as a fiber crop, this annual weed is adapted to cropland throughout most of the United States. Over the past 10 years, velvetleaf has increased dramatically …
