Review Of Parasites Of North American Freshwater Fishes, Second Edition, Gerald W. Esch Jan 2000

Review Of Parasites Of North American Freshwater Fishes, Second Edition, Gerald W. Esch

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

Thirty-two years ago, Glenn Hoffman published the first version of this book. I remember it well because I was teaching a field parasitology course at the W.K. Kellogg Biological Station of Michigan State University, and depended to a very great extent on various fish parasites to use for examples in class study. As a result, the book was canonical as a source of information, and it continued to serve me well as I moved elsewhere in subsequent years. I know from personal knowledge that others who worked with fish parasites were equally served by the book. My copy of the …


Selenium In A Wyoming Grassland Community Receiving Wastewater From An In Situ Uranium Mine, Pedro Ramirez Jr., Brad Rodgers Jan 2000

Selenium In A Wyoming Grassland Community Receiving Wastewater From An In Situ Uranium Mine, Pedro Ramirez Jr., Brad Rodgers

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

Water, soil, vegetation, grasshoppers (Family Acrididae), bird eggs and bird livers collected at a 23.5 hectare (58 acres) grassland irrigated with wastewater from an in situ uranium mine (Study Area) and a reference site in 1998 were analyzed for selenium and other trace elements. Bird surveys were conducted at the irrigated grassland at the in situ uranium mine to determine species use, relative abundance and behavior. We observed 23 species of birds using the Study Area. Western meadowlarks (Sturnella neglecta), red-winged blackbirds (Agelaius phoeniceus), lark buntings (Calamospiza melanocorys) and horned larks (Eremophila alpestris …


Prevalence Of Antibody To Hepatitis E Virus Among Rodents In The United States, Michael O. Favorov, Michael Y. Kosoy, Sergei A. Tsarev, James E. Childs, Harold S. Margolis Jan 2000

Prevalence Of Antibody To Hepatitis E Virus Among Rodents In The United States, Michael O. Favorov, Michael Y. Kosoy, Sergei A. Tsarev, James E. Childs, Harold S. Margolis

Zoonotics and Wildlife Disease: Publications

The recent identification of antibody to hepatitis E virus (HEV) in pigs, sheep, and cattle and characterization of an HEV isolated from domestic pigs suggest animal reservoirs for this virus. To investigate whether rodents might be a natural reservoir of HEV, the prevalence of anti-HEV was determined among a variety of species throughout the United States. Serum samples were obtained from 806 rodents of 26 species in 15 genera. Anti-HEV prevalence was assessed by 2 EIAs (mosaic protein- and 55-kDa protein-based), which gave concordant results. The highest prevalence of antibody was found in the genus Rattus (59.7%; 66/278). Overall, rodents …

The Significance Of The Journey In The Works Ofjuan Rulfo, Philip J. Copado Jan 2000

The Significance Of The Journey In The Works Ofjuan Rulfo, Philip J. Copado

McNair Scholars Journal

The fame ofJuan Rulfo (1 918-1986), one of the most well-known Mexican authors of his time, is based almost entirely upon two works, Pedro Paramo (1955) a novel , and a collection of short stories entitled EI Llano en Llamas, [The Burning Plains] (1953). These, however, are not the only works that make up his repertoire. He wrote three screenplays La Formula Secreta [The Secret Formula] (1964), EI Gallo de Oro [The Golden Cock] (1964), and EI Despojo [The Remainder] (1960). In addition, he wrote a few other articles and short stories including a collection of his photographs portraying the …

Agroforestry In The United States: Research And Technology Transfer Needs For The Next Millennium

United States Department of Agriculture, Forest Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

If society's needs and aspirations for forestderived goods, services, and amenities truely are to be met, we must find ways of augmenting traditional forestry by gleaning some portion of these benefits from agricultural lands. For example: windbreaks, riparian forest buffers, hybrid poplar trees, farm woodlots, and grazing/timber systems.

7. Discovering Our Voice: A Manual To Accompany 'Geraldo', Ann Margaret Sharp, Laurance J. Splitter Jan 2000

7. Discovering Our Voice: A Manual To Accompany 'Geraldo', Ann Margaret Sharp, Laurance J. Splitter

Later Elementary School Curriculum

Geraldo is a story about what an immigrant undergoes when he leaves one culture and tries to 'join' another culture. An immigrant suffers a triple disruption: he loses his sense of place, he enters into an alien language, and he finds himself surrounded by beings whose social behavior, norms and traditions are very unlike, and sometimes even offensive to his own. The explanation of the leading ideas in this manual help students and teachers explore the philosophical themes in Geraldo. The discussion plans, exercises, and activities are designed to foster and cultivate the process of philosophical dialogue in the classroom.


Yuccas (Agavaceae) Of The International Four Corners: Southwestern Usa And Northwestern Mexico, Lee W. Lenz, Michael A. Hanson Jan 2000

Yuccas (Agavaceae) Of The International Four Corners: Southwestern Usa And Northwestern Mexico, Lee W. Lenz, Michael A. Hanson

Aliso: A Journal of Systematic and Floristic Botany

Yuccas (Yucca, Agavaceae) are an easily recognizable constituent of the vegetation of the International Four Corners; an area made up of portions of Arizona, New Mexico, Sonora and Chihuahua. We recognize three species as native to the region, Yucca baccata, Y. elata and Y. madrensis, together with interspecific hybrids, and document for the first time naturally occurring intersectional hybridization between baccate-fruited (sect. Yucca) and capsular-fruited (sect. Chaenocarpa) species. We examine the reproductive barriers to hybridization operating within the genus, i.e., spatial, temporal and ethological, and we consider circumstances that may have been responsible for the production and …


The Dead Sea Scrolls: Questions And Responses For Latter-Day Saints, Donald W. Parry, Stephen D. Ricks Jan 2000

The Dead Sea Scrolls: Questions And Responses For Latter-Day Saints, Donald W. Parry, Stephen D. Ricks

Maxwell Institute Publications

Since their initial discovery in 1947, the ancient scrolls found in caves near the Dead Sea have stirred public curiosity. For Latter-day Saints, whose scriptural tradition speaks of sacred records to come forth in the last days, the Dead Sea Scrolls naturally give rise to questions such as:

— Are there references to Christ or Christianity in the scrolls?

— Do the scrolls contain scripture missing from the Bible?

— Is the plan of salvation attested in the scrolls?

— Do the scrolls refer to Joseph Smith or other latter-day figures?

The "Persuasion Route" Of The Law: Advertising And Legal Persuasion, Sarah C. Haan Jan 2000

The "Persuasion Route" Of The Law: Advertising And Legal Persuasion, Sarah C. Haan

Scholarly Articles

Persuasive commercial messages--advertisements--dominate our experience of persuasion in contemporary American life. In the past quarter century, the commercial landscape has witnessed significant change in the volume, styles, and strategies of advertising. In particular, this Note argues that modern advertising contains little information about products and services, and that rational processing of information has become less important to consumer decisionmaking. At the same time, advertising research shows that consumers do not seek out or use product information contained in advertisements, and that less-informative advertising may actually be more persuasive than advertising containing a lot of information. This Note argues that changes …

Littérature Naturelle: Point De Passage De La Littérature «Beur», Habiba Sebkhi Jan 2000

Littérature Naturelle: Point De Passage De La Littérature «Beur», Habiba Sebkhi

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

The literary works by so-called Beur writers have gained little recognition in most critical studies. It is as if these works have been confined to the space which produced them, the suburbs, symbol of marginality and illegitimacy. The present article proposes a new concept, «litterature naturelle», in an effort to define Beur literature as well as other writings presenting similar characteristics.


La Nouvelle En Haïti, Correspondance Du Nouveau Monde: Les Recueils De Yanick Lahens Et De Pascale Blanchard-Glass, Kathleen Gyssels Jan 2000

La Nouvelle En Haïti, Correspondance Du Nouveau Monde: Les Recueils De Yanick Lahens Et De Pascale Blanchard-Glass, Kathleen Gyssels

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

The short story is very much alive in Haitian literature, most especially among women writers. As a favorite genre for describing insecurity on the sociocultural, political and identity level, it reflects the difficult circumstances in which short story writers labor and the obstacles that they encounter in finding a publisher, an audience, in a word, a place in the disporic field of Haitian literature. In particular, the short story genre allows for a formal, stylistic and structural hybridity that suits the writers' desire to experiment with narration even as they seek an appropriate voice.


Dany Laferrière, L'Identité Culturelle Et L'Intertexte Afro-Américain, Anne Marie Miraglia Jan 2000

Dany Laferrière, L'Identité Culturelle Et L'Intertexte Afro-Américain, Anne Marie Miraglia

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

This study examines two novels by Dany Laferriere, Comment faire /'amour avec un negre sans se fatiguer (1985) and Cette grenade dans la main du jeune negre est-elle une bombe ou un fruit? (1993) in light

of their «Americanness» and their relations to the writings of the Afro- American writers Chester Himes and James Baldwin. The «Americanness»

of Laferriere's novels is apparent in the recurrence of typical American themes and characters and in the exploitation of proper nouns, myths and cliches that are specific to North America. Although Chester Himes' popular fiction appears to influence some of the stylistic and …
