Review Of Geography Of Religions By David E. Sopher, Robert Stoddard

Geography Program: Faculty Publications

This is the first book written in English dealing exclusively with the geography of religion. Consequently it contributes to the field of cultural geography by organizing some ideas and scattered publications dealing with the geography of religion into a single text. The major disappointment with this publication is the lack of consideration about several vital geographic questions. It is true that a small survey text cannot cover all aspects of the field, so some topics and previous studies may need to be omitted. Unfortunately the weakness of this book is not its size but its emphasis. Too many pages are …

A Brief History Of The Namru-3 Medical Zoology Program, Harry Hoogstraal

United States Naval Medical Research Unit 3: Publications

The NAMRU-3 Medical Zoology program began during Easter week of 1950. We had just closed the NAMRU-3 field station at Torit, in Equatoria Province of soulheastern Sudan, and were heading homeward to the United States. However, the offer to remain in Egypt for a year or two to develop a Medical Zoology department at NAMRU-3 provided an interesting challenge after working for several years in tropical forests and grasslands of Africa and other continents. We shall briefly describe subsequent events under four headings: (1) Medical Zoology in Egypt, (2) Ticks and Tickborne Diseases of the World, (3) Kala Azar in …

The Altercatio Phyllidis Et Florae As An Ovidian Satire, Robert S. Haller

Department of English: Faculty Publications

The Altercatio Phyllidis et Florae is an Ovidian satire: a poem which ridicules certain mistaken notions of the meaning of the office of clerk by putting them in a context in which they become justifications for love. Such satire is possible in any age which, like Augustan Rome or twelfth-century France, defines a person according to his office and thereby can see the absurdity of making these definitions into reasons for praising a person's aptness for love. If Ovid is the inventor of this form of satire, he was followed, as we can see from the Altercatio, by poets …

Five Photographers, Norman Geske, Michael Mcloughlin

Sheldon Museum of Art: Catalogs and Publications

PREFACE

The exhibition of contemporary photography has become within a very few years one of the most gratifying and, at the same time, challenging of the preoccupations proper to museum programming. Since AMERICAN PHOTOGRAPHY: THE SIXTIES, presented here in 1966, we have been more involved than ever with this challenge. In the present exhibition, which is the creation of Michael McLoughlin of the Department of Art and a group of gifted students, we take it up in a new way. The result is not, I think, a silver platter serving of the obvious, but instead presents a demonstration of creative …

Objective Theory Of Agency: Apparent Authority And The Estoppel Of Apparent Ownership, Michael Conant

Nebraska Law Review

The purpose of this study is to reconsider the theoretical foundations of the liability of a principal to third parties in contract. In order to reconcile the extended liability of the principal for unpermitted contracts of his agent beyond traditional apparent authority, the treatise writers have created new generalized concepts. The conclusion of this study is that new conceptual generalizations to advance the theoretical framework of the law of principal's liability in contract are not only unnecessary but misleading. The basis of this conclusion is that new concepts with more general and indeterminate content than the older ones seem to …

The Illinois Land Trust And Nebraska Law, Jarret C. Oeltjen

Nebraska Law Review

The legal device known as an "Illinois Land Trust" appears to be virtually unknown and unrecognized in Nebraska. The popularity this device has gained in Illinois since its inception and the fact that other states have been experimenting with it may show somewhat of a trend toward its general utility and acceptance. As such a device may be of help not only to real estate investors but also to lawyers, bankers, and trust companies, this article seeks to explore and explain the land trust, its uses and advantages, and also whether it could readily be adopted in Nebraska.

"Institutional" Theory And A New Private "Club": Court Enforcement Of Union Fines, Albert Broderick

Nebraska Law Review

In England and in the United States the association of working men in labor unions has been traditionally legally analyzed in terms of "contract." The hypothesis considered here is that recent developments in American labor law make it timely for purposes of administrative law, at least, to discard the legal analysis of the labor association as a "contract" among members, and to substitute a theory of "institution" as more in accord with the existing facts. The adoption of such an analysis would open up a new field of administrative law, one that sociologists (more frequently than lawyers) have referred to …

County Immunity—County Not Liable For Personal Injuries Suffered In An Accident Caused By The Removal Of A Stop Sign From A Hazardous Intersection: Mckinney V. County Of Cass, 180 Neb. 685, 144 N.W.2d 416 (1966), Thomas B. Thomsen

Nebraska Law Review

The plaintiff was a passenger in a vehicle traveling north on a graveled county road. The vehicle collided at an intersection with a car traveling east on another graveled county road, which had been designated an arterial. A stop sign which had protected the east-west road had been removed about one week prior to the accident by employees of the county, and no temporary stop signs or warning signs had been substituted. The trial court dismissed the defendant county at the close of plaintiff's evidence. The jury returned a verdict for the defendant driver of the eastbound car. On appeal …

Rated Pleasantness And Association Value Of 101 English Nouns, Albert Silverstein, Richard A. Dienstbier

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

Ratings of pleasantness (PL) on a 7-point scale and of association value (a′) on a 5-point scale are reported for 101 two-syllable nouns. The ratings were obtained from two samples of 100 women each and two samples of 100 men each. Sizable differences were obtained between words on both scales. For women and men respectively, PL and a′ were correlated .570 and .585; PL and printed frequency were correlated .233 and .207; frequency and a′ were correlated .533 and .764. Women’s and men’s ratings correlated .973 for PL and .899 for a′.

English summary

Wieczorowski S. - The alimentary tract and the lungs parasites in hares in Białystok voivodship

87 parasitic sections were made of hares coming from Białystok voivodship territory. The investigations lead to the conclusion that the hares are 100 percent invaded by parasites. Among the roundworms of the alimentary tract, the most frequent are the following: Trichostrongylus retortaeformis (78.1 percent) and Trichocephalus sylvilagi (43 percent). Coccidiosis is also widespread; it was found in 77 percent of the investigated animals.

Themes And Dramatic Forms In The Plays Of Armand Salacrou, Juris Silenieks

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

Armand Salacrou is generally recognized to be one of the outstanding French playwrights whose literary careers began between the two World Wars. Salacrou has written about thirty plays. Many of them have been produced at the leading theatrical centers in Europe, and some have earned success and fame for the author on African and Asian stages. Unlike the other distinguished dramatists of his generation such as Giraudoux, Anouilh, Sartre, and Cocteau, Salacrou's name has remained almost unknown to the theater audiences in this country. A number of his plays have been published in Italian, Spanish, German, Russian, and Japanese translations, …

Room-Temperature Second-Order Raman Spectra Of Csc1, Csbr, And Csi, A. M. Karo, John R. Hardy

John R. Hardy Papers

The room-temperature Raman spectra of CsC1, CsBr, and CsI have been computed from a simple, combined density-of-states approximation. Calculations have been made for four different model potential functions and compared with experiment in the cases of CsBr and CsI. In this way it is found that one of the variations, called the DD(-) model, is the most satisfactory. The agreement with the observed spectra is surprisingly close when one considers that no allowance has been made for variations in the elements of the Raman polarizability tensor.

Evaluation Of The Dispersion Relations Of Photoproduction, Paul Finkler

Paul Finkler Papers

A modification of the Omnes method is used to solve the singular integral equations for the 3-3 partialwave amplitudes of photoproduction. The effects of multipion production are assumed to be negligible. The method requires a knowledge of the phase at all energies. Consequently, it is necessary to treat the corresponding pion-nucleon scattering problem to determine the eBect of the high-energy behavior of the phase on the solution for the scattering amplitude at low energies. The sharply resonant nature of the problen suggests an approximation in the form of solution, rather than in the Born terms, which leads to relatively simple …

The Alchemy Of Art: A Study In The Evolution Of The Creative Mind Of John Keats, G. Brian Sullivan

Department of English: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

From the time John Keats began Endymion (March 1817) until his abandonment of the second version of Hyperion (September 1819), we have thirty vital months comprising a span of development unparalleled in English literature. This dissertation focuses upon the central feature of that development— the evolution of the creative mind of the poet. I do not purpose another factual biography of Keats, but rather an exploration of the internal autobiography of the poet in self-genesis as this evolvement is impressed upon the symbolic structures of his works. In artistic vitality, incisiveness of thought, and individual sublimity, Keats achieved a ripeness …

Good Practice In Vertebrate Pest Control, Philip J. Spear

Vertebrate Pest Conference Proceedings: 3rd (1967)

Good practice in pest control is a responsibility of several elements in our democratic, free-enterprise society. Most notably, these are: (1) the general public, (2) responsible government agencies and (3) industry. Before I comment about the responsibilities of each of these three groups, let me tell you about the work of structural pest control operators and their interests in vertebrate pest control. The pest control industry which I discussed in detail at the Second Vertebrate Pest Control Conference (1) continues to grow and expand its fields of activity. At the present time, it is our estimate (2) that 26,700 persons …

Control Of Nuisance Pests In Suburbia, Howard A. Merrill

Vertebrate Pest Conference Proceedings: 3rd (1967)

To a rancher or high-rise apartment dweller, problems with vertebrate pests in suburbia may seem insignificant. But when one stops to consider that last year over 2 million acres of farmland were converted into urban and industrial use, then it takes a different perspective. Some mammals are protected—game animals and fur bearers are usually protected by Fish and Game Departments. Cottontail rabbits, deer, and tree squirrels are examples of game animals, and muskrats, foxes, badgers, and raccoons are examples of fur bearers. In California a number of birds and mammals have no protection; these are English sparrows, American or black-billed …

Federal Wildlife Importation Regulations: The Why And Wherefore, Joseph P. Linduska

Vertebrate Pest Conference Proceedings: 3rd (1967)

This is a hasty and in many ways superficial review of the motivations that started us in the business of importing new, strange, beautiful, and hopefully useful wildlife. It is a capsuled account of the high cost of ill-advised introductions and of near misses that were avoided thanks to a few individuals who viewed such transplants with skepticism and even alarm. And I have touched also on the highlights of the legislative base from which we now operate in efforts to safeguard agriculture and other values from ravages of exotic wildlife; wildlife that may succeed too well with us and …

Experimentation—An Articulation Of A New Myth, Leonard V. Kaplan

Nebraska Law Review

With explicit recognition of the need for ethical codes addressing medical experimentation after the specter of Nuremberg, what problem does experimentation present to the individual and the community, and if problems do exist, why do they defy legal control? Before analyzing the ethical interaction of doctor and patient and experimenter and subject, we should first recognize that experimentation as a concept is descriptive of legal and social operations as well. Also, the law does not and cannot yield scientific answers; rather it balances, makes value judgments; the law is, in fact, experimenting when it intercedes encouraging or more often proscribing …

Elephant Teeth From The Atlantic Continental Shelf, Frank C. Whitmore Jr., K. O. Emery, H. B. S. Cooke, Donald J. P. Swift

United States Geological Survey: Staff Publications

Teeth of mastodons and mammoths have been recovered by fishermen from at least 40 sites on the continental shelf as deep as 120 meters. Also present are submerged shorelines, peat deposits, lagoonal shells, and relict sands. Evidently elephants and other large mammals ranged this region during the glacial stage of low sea level of the last 25,000 years.

Roughness Characteristics Of Natural Channels, Harry H. Barnes Jr.

United States Geological Survey: Publications

Color photographs and descriptive data are presented for 50 stream channels for which roughness coefficients have been determined. All hydraulic computations involving flow in open channels require an evaluation of the roughness characteristics of the channel. In the absence of a satisfactory quantitative procedure this evaluation remains chiefly an art. The ability to evaluate roughness coefficients must be developed through experience. One means of gaining this experience is by examining and becoming acquainted with the appearance of some typical channels whose roughness coefficients are known. The photographs and data contained in this report represent a wide range of channel conditions. …

Retreat From "Fault"? An English Lawyer's Views, J. Neville Turner

Nebraska Law Review

European scholars have in the past tended to look askance at the more permissive American divorce laws, but of late influential voices have been heard advocating a change in the basis of divorce law. The present climate of opinion suggests that there is a real possibility of a "non-fault" statute being seriously canvassed in the United Kingdom Parliament in the immediate future. Recent articles suggest that English jurists too favour "departure from fault." The subject of this dialogue is thus a very live issue in England, as well as in some states of the United States and some provinces of …
