Physicians—Applying The Statute Of Limitations In Malpractice Cases—Spath V. Morrow (Neb. 1962), Richard D. Nelson

Nebraska Law Review

Many questions are left unanswered by the adoption of the discovery rule in Nebraska, but it is clear that the court intends to enlarge the opportunities for plaintiffs to obtain relief in malpractice cases. Whether the court intends to have the discovery rule supersede the end of treatment rule, or whether it intends to have them exist concurrently, will be clarified in later decisions. The concern shown by the court for the fair treatment of the injured patient makes it probable that the court will abandon any restriction of the discovery rule and apply it to all malpractice claims.

The Rule Against Perpetuities As It Relates To Powers Of Appointment, Lawrence Berger

Nebraska Law Review

Over the past twenty-five years, much has been written about the raison d'etre of the Rule Against Perpetuities. During this period, the theories underlying and the justifications posited for the Rule have changed considerably, while some of the older notions concerning it have been partially discredited. The purpose of this article is to utilize some of these newly arrived at basics and apply them specifically to the problem of the Rule as it relates to powers of appointment. In the course of the discussion, a cursory review of the history of the Rule and its policy progenitors is undertaken for …

Floods In Nebraska On Small Drainage Areas Magnitude And Frequency, Emil W. Beckman, Norman E. Hutchison

United States Geological Survey: Publications

Flood hazard information is needed for small streams as well as for large ones. This report explains methods of defining the magnitude and frequency of floods in Nebraska on uncontrolled and unregulated streams which have about 300 square miles or less of drainage area contributing to surface runoff. Composite frequency curves defined for two flood regions express a ratio of floods with recurrence intervals ranging from 1.1 to 25 years to the mean annual flood. Curves for 10 hydrologic areas were defined to show the relation of the mean annual flood to the contributing drainage area. A flood-frequency curve can …

Studies On Parorchis Acanthus (Trematoda: Digenea) As A Biological Control For The Southern Oyster Drill, Thais Haemastoma, Nelson R. Cooley

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

Events in the attack on the southern oyster drill, Thais haemastoma, by miracidia of the digenetic trematode, Parorchis acanthus, are described.

Infection rates in wild drill populations of various Gulf Coast localities from Florida to Texas were low, but intensity of infection in individual drills was high and caused castration. Infection rates in laboratory experiments were high, but intensities were low.

Pathology of natural infections in drills is described. The infection lasts at least two years, possibly even for life.

Natural infection rates of juvenile herring gulls (Larus argentatus) , ring-billed gulls (L. delawarensis), and …

The Nebraska Oil And Gas Lien, Richard E. Young

Nebraska Law Review

Since September 20, 1957, the Nebraska oil and gas lien statute has been in effect. Prior to its passage, Nebraska had only a general mechanic's lien statute. With a growing oil and gas drilling industry, it soon became apparent that due to the complexities and uniqueness of the oil and gas drilling business, the general mechanic's lien statute had many shortcomings when it was stretched to include this industry. In some of these states the oil and gas drilling industry was brought within the terms of the more general mechanic's lien statutes either by judicial construction or by slight amendment …

The Magnetic Pole In The Formulation Of Electricity And Magnetism, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

The use of the magnetic pole in the development of the concepts of electricity and magnetism leads unambiguously to a relativistic formulation of the field vectors which is well within the grasp of the sophomore student. The development is wholly consistent with Maxwell's equations and leads to clear and understandable definitions of the field vectors both in vacuum and in the material medium, as well as to the relations defining the transformations of the field vectors.

Factors Affecting The Financial Progress Of Dryland Farmers In Central Nebraska, 1924 To 1956, Roger H. Willsie, H. W. Ottoson

The financial progress of farmers is affected by many factors. Some of these factors were examined for their effects on farmers in the Nebraska Plains-Cornbelt Transition Area. Factors studied were: an index of opportunity to save, size of farm, size of livestock enterprise and education.

Transverse Mass And Gravitational Mass, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

A problem suggested by Professor Gamow deals with the relationship between the transverse mass and the gravitational mass: A steamroller of mass m moves horizontally, in the +x direction, with velocity v, in a region of space in which there is a gravitational field intensity g vertically downward. Find the weight of the moving steamroller.

A Reappraisal Of The Relationship Between Free And Bound Coumarin In Melilotus, Francis A. Haskins, Herman J. Gorz

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

In early work on coumarin in sweetclover, the assumption was made that the free form of the compound predominated in the intact plant. Subsequent investigations demonstrated the presence of bound coumarin in addition to free, and it was then thought that both forms were normally present. Recent work indicates that when suitable extraction procedures are used, virtually all the coumarin is obtained in the bound form. Such extraction procedures must provide for the rapid inactivation of β-glucosidase, thus preventing the hydrolysis of bound coumarin (apparently the glucoside of cis-o-hydroxycinnamic acid) during the extraction process. In the present study, inactivation …

"Chronometricals And Horologicals”: The Key To A Basic Theme In The Fiction Of Herman Melville, James Llewellyn Thorson

Open Access Master's Theses (through 2010)

My aim is to study several of Melville’s major works of fiction in the light a pamphlet called “Chronometricals and Horologicals”, which purports to be by one Plotinus Plinlimmon in Melville’s novel Pierre: or The Ambiguities. In my view of Melville’s works, this pamphlet is as near a statement of the author’s philosophy (as dramatized in his works) as can be formulated. I do not maintain that a study of the relationship of the pamphlet to the works will reveal the whole “truth” about the “meaning” of Melville’s fiction, but I do think that it will show a significant …
