The Nineteenth And Early Twentieth Century Sugar Industry In The Lafourche Country, John Alfred Heitmann Jan 1996

The Nineteenth And Early Twentieth Century Sugar Industry In The Lafourche Country, John Alfred Heitmann

History Faculty Publications

The Lafourche Country's narrow highways, characteristic swamplands, and ever present tidal pools convey to the unfamiliar visitor the feeling of being in a strange and rather mysterious land far removed from modern technology and culture. Yet, this land's navigable waterways, favorable climate, and rich soil has long favored a productive sugar cane industry that has been neglected by scholars. A careful examination of the past reveals that the Lafourche Country sugar industry ranked as an equal in terms of innovation and productivity to that of the well-studied plantations along the Mississippi River and Bayou Teche. Indeed, both in the past …


Wildflowers For Indiana Highways, Michael N. Dana, Ricky Darrell Kemery, Brian S. Boszor Jan 1996

Wildflowers For Indiana Highways, Michael N. Dana, Ricky Darrell Kemery, Brian S. Boszor

JTRP Technical Reports

Questions concerning wildflower usage on Indiana highway rights-of-way were investigated. Native prairie wildflower seed quality was found to be highly variable among supply companies, species, and years. Less variability was found among “garden” wildflower species and suppliers. Direct seeding was found to be successful with six species of native prairie forbs: Butterfly Milkweed Asclepiads tuberose, Wild Bergamot Monarda fistulosa, New England Aster Aster novae-angliae, Pale-purple Coneflower Echinacea pallida, Gray-headed Coneflower Ratibido pinnota, Ironweed Vernonia fasciculosa. Five species of “garden” wildflowers performed well: Common Cosmos Cosmos bipinnatus, Yellow Cosmos Cosmos sulphureus, Cornflower Centaurea cyanus, Goldenwave Coreopsis sincioria, Black-eyed Susan Rudbeckia hiria. …

A Semiquantitative Analysis Of Pcb And P,P-Dde Residues In Stranded Marine Mammals Using High Performance Liquid Chromatography, David Lawrence Hayteas Jan 1996

A Semiquantitative Analysis Of Pcb And P,P-Dde Residues In Stranded Marine Mammals Using High Performance Liquid Chromatography, David Lawrence Hayteas

Dissertations and Theses

Organochlorines are ubiquitous pollutants of the marine environment. These lipid-soluble and highly persistent compounds are found in detectable amounts in almost all marine organisms, and accumulate in the lipid tissues of marine animals. This bioaccumulation leads to biomagnification of these contaminants in higher trophic levels. Near the top of many marine food chains are found the marine mammals, in whose blubber high levels of organochlorine residues have been measured. The most commonly occurring of these pollutants in these animals are the polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's) and p,p-DDE, a metabolite of the insecticide DDT. These substances have been shown to cause disruptions …

Distribution Of Baird's Pocket Gopher (Geomys Breviceps) In Arkansas; With Additional County Records, Douglas A. Elrod, Gary A. Heidt, Mark R. Ingraham, Earl G. Zimmerman Jan 1996

Distribution Of Baird's Pocket Gopher (Geomys Breviceps) In Arkansas; With Additional County Records, Douglas A. Elrod, Gary A. Heidt, Mark R. Ingraham, Earl G. Zimmerman

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

Recently, a population of pocket gophers in the north-central portion of Arkansas was determined to be the plains pocket gopher (Geomys Imrsarius), rather than Baird's pocket gopher (Geomys breviceps). This changed the known range of both species extensively. A detailed examination of the known range of Baird's pocket gophers (G. breviceps) in Arkansas resulted in 12 new county records. Biogeographically, G. breviceps appears to be found in all physiographic regions within the state with the possible exception ofCrowley's ridge. It is most common in the Gulf Coastal Plain and rarest in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain. The distribution ofG. breviceps is …


Reproductive Performance And Population Dynamics Of Cowpea Aphid (Homoptera: Aphididae) On Leaf Extracts Of Resistant And Susceptible Cowpeas, I. Billy Annan, Ward M. Tingey, George A. Schaefers, Kailash N. Saxena Jan 1996

Reproductive Performance And Population Dynamics Of Cowpea Aphid (Homoptera: Aphididae) On Leaf Extracts Of Resistant And Susceptible Cowpeas, I. Billy Annan, Ward M. Tingey, George A. Schaefers, Kailash N. Saxena

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

Membrane feeding studies were conducted to determine the effects of raw juices and chemical extracts of leaves of aphid-resistant (ICV-12) and aphid- susceptible (ICV-1) cultivars of cowpea [Vigna unguiculata L. (Walp.)], on the survival, growth, and reproduction of cowpea aphid Aphis craccivora Koch. Life table and demographic statistics of the cohort population and subsequent generations were estimated. Compared to ICV-1, the leaf juices and chemical extracts of ICV-12 exhibited significant (P ≤ 0.05) adverse effects on aphid survival, growth, and reproduction. Raw leaf juice and ethyl acetate extract of ICV-12 in both water and sucrose significantly (P ≤ 0.05) limited …


Functional Responses Of Iphiseius Degenerans And Neoseiulus Teke (Acari: Phytoseiidae) To Changes In The Density Of The Cassava Green Mite, Mononychellus Tanajoa (Acari: Tetranychidae), F. E. Nwilene, G. Nachman Jan 1996

Functional Responses Of Iphiseius Degenerans And Neoseiulus Teke (Acari: Phytoseiidae) To Changes In The Density Of The Cassava Green Mite, Mononychellus Tanajoa (Acari: Tetranychidae), F. E. Nwilene, G. Nachman

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

The functional responses of pintonymph and adult female Iphiseius degenerans and Neoseiulus teke to increasing density of three stages of their prey, the cassava green mite (CGM), Mononychellus tanajoa, were studied on excised cassava leaf discs under laboratory conditions. The responses obtained were predominantly sigmoid type III curves with the highest plateau when both stages of I. degenerans and N. teke were preying on CGM eggs. In all cases, the predation rate of the former species exceeded that of the latter. The empirical data were fitted by four different models. From the models, the attack coefficient (a') and handling time …

Introduction To Through A Glass Darkly: Essays In The Religious Imagination, John C. Hawley Jan 1996

Introduction To Through A Glass Darkly: Essays In The Religious Imagination, John C. Hawley

English

The question that so disturbed Christ's contemporaries resonates even now: "Who do you say that I am?" (Matt. 16 : 15). Paradoxically, the answers his disciples boldly or clumsily offer seem to define them far more clearly than describe their teacher. The New Testament stands as a record of their subsequent obsession with the question, with what they remember their answers to have been, and with how this radically creative interrogation ordered their remaining years. Throughout the centuries their own disciples, variously aided and obstructed by these confessions, used the question as a litmus test not only in their prayer …


Enlightening The Religion Clauses, Suzanna Sherry Jan 1996

Enlightening The Religion Clauses, Suzanna Sherry

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

I have argued that the government may not single out any irrational beliefs for preferential treatment, nor is it required to treat alternative epistemologies as favorably as Enlightenment rationality. Both history and practical considerations support the notion that the Constitution rejects epistemological pluralism in favor of the primacy of reason. There is no evidence that the religion clauses are an exception to this basic principle; indeed, for the founding generation, pre-Enlightenment religion was the primary--and perhaps the only---example of a nonrational epistemology. If we allow government decisions to be made on the basis of, or influenced by, premises and conclusions …
