Who's Moving To Nebraska?, Charles Lamphear

Business in Nebraska

A survey of recent migrants to Nebraska revealed that about one-third were single. Nearly half of them were born here or previously had lived in Nebraska. Most were in their mid-fifties, and most moved to the state to be close to family.

The remaining two-thirds of the recent arrivals surveyed were couples. Like singles, most were either born in Nebraska or had lived in the state. Their most frequently cited reason for moving back to Nebraska also was to be close to family.

Texas Airport System Plan, Texas Division Of Aviation, Texas Department Of Transportation

Documents from the State of Texas-Archive

The nation's air transportation system currently has the attention of the American public, with the focus of this attention principally on the needs of the country's largest airports. Since the enactment of the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978, the proliferation of low fares has sparked a dramatic increase in passenger traffic. In addition, improved air service with increased frequencies through connecting hub airports to multiple destinations has placed a heavy demand on the existing airports that serve as centers fo passenger travel. Meeting the demand will entail construction of additional runways and other improvements at existing airports and, possibly, some …

Landscaping To Avoid Wildlife Conflicts

Other Bird Strike and Aviation Materials

Wild animals contribute to our enjoyment of nature, and many species add aesthetic value to urban and suburban environments. Landscapes are frequently developed to be “environmentally friendly” by providing food and cover for songbirds, waterfowl, squirrels, and other wildlife. Wild animals can, however, damage property or threaten human health and safety. The presence of undesirable species or animal overpopulation often leads to many common wildlife problems associated with urban landscapes. Equipped with the right information, landscape designers can significantly reduce the potential for wildlife–human conflicts and their resulting impacts on economic interests and public safety.

Runaway/Thrownaway Children: National Estimates And Characteristics, Heather Hammer, David Finkelhor, Andrea J. Sedlak

Human Trafficking: Data and Documents

The words “missing child” call to mind tragic and frightening kidnappings reported in the national news. But a child can be missing for many reasons, and the problem of missing children is far more complex than the headlines suggest. Getting a clear picture of how many children become missing—and why—is an important step in addressing the problem. This series of Bulletins provides that clear picture by summarizing findings from the Second National Incidence Studies of Missing, Abducted, Runaway, and Thrownaway Children (NISMART–2). The series offers national estimates of missing children based on surveys of households, juvenile residential facilities, and law …

2002 Trafficking In Persons Report, U.S. Department Of State

Human Trafficking: Data and Documents

Over the past year, at least 700,000, and possibly as many as four million men women and children worldwide were bought, sold, transported and held against their will in slave-like conditions. In this modern form of slavery, known as “trafficking in persons,” traffickers use threats, intimidation and violence to force victims to engage in sex acts or to labor under conditions comparable to slavery for the traffickers’ financial gain. Women, children and men are trafficked into the international sex trade for the purposes of prostitution, sex tourism and other commercial sexual services and into forced labor situations in sweatshops, construction …

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Asthma, a serious lung disease, is the leading cause of long-term illness in children. Asthma affects 112,100 Nebraskans, of whom 75,000 are adults, and 37,100 are youth (1998), and is on the rise. While the U.S. death rate has decreased since 1993, Nebraska's rate has increased to second highest in the nation. The highest death rate is among blacks, females and those 65 years of age …

Ec02-1565 Biology And Management Of Potato Insects, Robert J. Wright, Gary L. Hein, W. Wyatt Hoback, Alexander D. Pavlista

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

A variety of insects can damage potatoes in Nebraska. Insects may feed directly on the tubers and damage the harvestable crop, or they may indirectly damage the crop by feeding on leaves or stems. If severe enough, indirect damage may reduce harvestable yield and quality. Insect feeding also may be important because some insects (e.g., aphids) may transmit plant diseases such as viruses when they feed, or others (e.g., psyllids) may inject toxins. This publication reviews the identification, biology, and management of common insect pests of potatoes in Nebraska. The basis for a successful integrated pest management (IPM) program for …
