Observations On Chromosomes Of Dicrostonyx Torquatus Stevensoni Nelson And Chromosomal Diversity In Varying Lemmings = Untersuchungen An Den Chromosomen Von Dicrostonyx Torquatus Stevensoni Nelson Und Chromosomale Unterschiede Bei Halsbandlemmingen, Virginia R. Rausch, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

English abstract: The cytogenetic characteristics of the varying lemming, Dicrostonyx torquatus stevensoni, (2n = 34), were investigated, and diploid chromosomal numbers were reported for four other nominal subspecies (exsul, nelsoni, richardsoni, and rubricatus) of the torquatus-group in North America. The diploid complements ranged from 30 to 44 chromosomes, and the fundamental number from 50 to 55. Chromosomal polymorphism was observed in all forms. In cross-breeding experiments, the mating of F₁ progeny was not productive. The findings support the zoogeographic concept that populations of Dicrostonyx became fragmented or displaced southward during Würm time, with …

Experiment At Nebraska The First Two Years Of A Cluster College, Robert E. Knoll, Robert D. Brown

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

In November 1968 the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska was asked to react to a document coming from a faculty-student committee charged with examining the feasibility of establishing an innovating college on the Lincoln campus. It attempted to spell out the need for such innovation, and it offered a plan for fulfilling the need that it delineated. This is that document:

Within the past generation a new kind of student, a new kind of faculty, and a new kind of university have developed. To meet the challenges which these changes present and to provide for an …

Lyly's Midas As An Allegory Of Tyranny, Stephen S. Hilliard

Department of English: Faculty Publications

John Lyly's Midas is structured in terms of traditional allegorizations of the Ovidian myth that represent Midas as an avaricious and ignorant tyrant. Lyly is thus concerned with a theme popular in the public theater, but he treats it in allegorical manner distinctive in its focus on theme rather than character or action. The play first portrays Midas's mistaken choice of a private end, the accumulation of wealth for its own sake and as a means of financing lechery and aggression, then suggests the difficulties this causes in the governing of his kingdom. The episode in which Midas judges the …

A Protean Work: Review Of Anthony Burgess, Mf, Thomas Nelson Winter

Department of Classics and Religious Studies: Faculty Publications

The novel is a recasting of Sophocles' Oedipus Rex. Burgess’s love of language is becoming proverbial, and this novel is a philologist’s delight. Many of the words he uses as English are to be found in neither first, second, nor third edition of the unabridged. Browsing through dictionaries, including Classical Greek dictionaries, is part of the fun of reading this book, and was presumably part of the fun of writing it. It is crammed with significant names and with riddles, the first of which would have pleased the Sphinx, the answer to which is ingenious enough to be Oedipal. …

The Nebraska Art Association, Fred N. Wells

Sheldon Museum of Art: Catalogs and Publications

In this history of the Nebraska Art Association emphasis has been placed on the development of policies which governed the formation of the collections, the close relationship between the Association and the University, and especially the family interests which have made possible many generous gifts.

It all began with Sarah Wool Moore, as dedicated a disciple of the visual arts as ever wielded a crayon or a camel's hair brush. Miss Moore had come to Nebraska University in 1884 as a teacher of drawing and painting. She had been a pupil of August Eisenmenger, rector of the Vienna Academy of …

Religio-Scientific Relationships In The Twentieth And The Thirteenth Centuries, Nicholas Dietz Jr.

Transactions of the Nebraska Academy of Sciences and Affiliated Societies

Our whole planet became conscious of a religio-scientific relationship during the moon-orbiting Apollo 8 flight, at Christmas, 1968. Its astronauts were the first men to leave the gravitation of Earth, the first to come under another gravitational body, the first to travel so far from Earth (233,000 miles), the first to see the other side of the moon. Contemplation of the scientific and technical achievements of their Mission against a new background of the incredibly immense Universe and the wonders of its creation, led them to depart from flight plan to re-read to planet Earth from outer space the Genesis …

History Of Genetic Counseling, Anne J. Krush

Transactions of the Nebraska Academy of Sciences and Affiliated Societies

Genetic counseling is an integral part of the physicia'l1's management of patients with presumptive or confirmed hereditary diseases. It is an art and science involving not only the use of technical genetic knowledge and precise medical diagnosis, but also accurate dissemination of genetic information in a tactful, empathetic manner. For optimum success the physician may request services from a variety of paramedical resources to insure maximum assistance for the counselee and his family in coping with a genetic problem.

Medical genetic knowledge has been accrued from many branches of genetics: population genetics, biochemical genetics, cytogenetics, immunogenetics, etc. Increased knowledge concerning …

Multi-Interval Sturm-Liouville Transform And Its Applications, Pau-Chang Lu

Transactions of the Nebraska Academy of Sciences and Affiliated Societies

The method of finite integral transforms (Eringen, 1954; Churchill, 1955; Sneddon, 1955; Cinelli, 1965; Roettinger, 1947) has gradually replaced the classical method of separation of variables. This is undoubtedly due to its compact and almost drill-like formalism. Wherever applicable, it has also replaced the Laplace transform with the resulting avoidance of cumbersome contour integrals in the inversion.

In this paper, we are concerned with solving, by such a transformational or operational method, the following general boundary-value problem:

L_i (f_i) + M (f_i) = g_i (x), C_i-l

Melvin Randolph Gilmore, Incipient Cultural Ecologist: A Biographic Analysis, David L. Erickson

Open Access Master's Theses (through 2010)

This thesis will be a study in microcosm of Melvin R. Gilmore’s Nebraska research. The study analyzes his ethnobiological field work and writings in terms of biographic factors.Gilmore’s ethnobiological research manifests both bioecological and cultural ecological rationales. The thesis shows that Gilmore’s pioneering work in ethnobiology, together with studies by Harrington and others, laid the groundwork for modern cultural ecology as practiced by Julian Steward and others. The author of the thesis used original documents from the Nebraska State Historical Society in his research.

While in Nebraska Gilmore developed an interest in ethnobiology. His initial ethnobotanical field work was related …

Fourier Transforms Of Unbounded Measures, Loren Argabright, Jesus De La Lamadrid

Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications

Let G be a locally compact abelian group. For a (generally unbounded) measure μ on G we shall say that μ is transformable if there is a measure μˆ on the character group Γ of G such that, for every ƒЄK(G), the space of continuous functions with compact support on G,ƒЄL₂(μ) and (1) ∫_Gƒ^**ƒ(x) dμ(x) = ∫_r|∫(γ^-1)|²dμ(γ). The resulting "Fourier transformation” μ→μˆ contains the classical theory and leads to generalizations of a variety of classical results, including the Plancherel theorem and the Poisson summation …

Thoreau's Argument In "Economy", William H. Hansen

Department of English: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

In the second paragraph of Walden, Thoreau explains that he is going to give a sincere and an honest account of his life in Nature to satisfy the curiosity of his friends who have expressed a desire to know the details of his two-year adventure at Walden Pond. In the third paragraph, he say's that he is also going to write something about the bad condition of his neighbors in and around Concord. These first two statements of purpose are important not only because they indicate what the book is going to be about, but also because they represent …

Evidence—Impeaching One’S Own Witness In Nebraska: State V. Fronning, 186 Neb. 463, 183 N.W.2d 920 (1971), Jeffrey W. Meyers

Nebraska Law Review

It has long been an established rule of courtroom procedure that a party calling a witness is prohibited from testing the credibility of that witness except under certain conditions, and then only in certain ways. The basic premise that one may not impeach one's own witness has, to a greater or lesser extent, been modified by courts and legislatures over the years, but for the most part the decision-making process has remained impervious to the impressive array of judicial theorists who have roundly criticized the rule for not meeting the exigencies of modern practice. In State v. Fronning, the …

State Constitutions For The 20th Century, William F. Swindler

Nebraska Law Review

The second Constitution of the United States, succeeding the old Articles of Confederation in 1789, is now more than 180 years old. The making of constitutions for the individual states, dating from 1776, will soon be completing its second century with nearly 135 different state constitutions to trace its course of development over that period. The number of new fundamental charters adopted by the various states, with an uncounted total of many dozens of amendments, and the accelerating process of amending the Federal Constitution, with eleven of the twenty-six amendments being adopted in this century, all is taken as evidence …

Constitutional Law—Sodomy Statutes: The Question Of Constitutionality: Buchanan V. Batchelor, 308 F. Supp. 729 (N.D. Tex. 1970), John F. Simmons

Nebraska Law Review

Although the winds of change have created some ripples, the ancient crime of sodomy remains on the books in Nebraska and forty-six other states despite repeated attacks by commentators and renunciation by the Model Penal Code. Reinforced by Scripture and public sensibilities, sodomy statutes resisted constitutional attack until 1969, when the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas in the case of Buchanan v. Batchelor found the Texas sodomy statute, essentially similar to those of almost all other jurisdictions, unconstitutional, and enjoined its enforcement.
