Psychological And Physical Trauma: Treating The Whole Person, Patricia Blakeney, Daniel Creson Dec 2002

Psychological And Physical Trauma: Treating The Whole Person, Patricia Blakeney, Daniel Creson

The Journal of Conventional Weapons Destruction

Survivors of physically disfiguring trauma, regardless of the cause, have experienced a series of assaults on the mind as well as on the body that present extraordinary challenges to human resilience. For the past 17 years, one of the authors (Dr. Blakeney) has worked closely with children and adults who have been severely burned. For burned individuals, the trauma of injury inevitably results in disfigurement, sometimes scars that can be easily hidden but more often scars that are noticeable. In fact, 20 years ago, it was generally accepted in the United States that persons with massive burns could not survive; …

Fighting Jim Crow In Post-World War Ii Omaha 1945-1956, Kathleen Mary Davis Dec 2002

Fighting Jim Crow In Post-World War Ii Omaha 1945-1956, Kathleen Mary Davis

Student Work

Blacks in Omaha developed new approaches to fight Jim Crow practices in the post-World War II era. As a result, substantial gains were made in the areas of public accommodations, employment, residential segregation and education. The Omaha Star, a black newspaper, was instrumental in reporting civil rights abuses to its readers, while constantly urging them to unite and fight for their rights. Civil rights organizations played a crucial role in these efforts. The NAACP chapter was established as early as 1918, but after an initial burst it was relatively ineffective until the 1950s. The local Urban League, however, which dated …

Inner Sharing: Spiritual Direction And Pastoral Care, Richard E. Lamontagne Dec 2002

Inner Sharing: Spiritual Direction And Pastoral Care, Richard E. Lamontagne

Doctor of Ministry

Spiritual direction is a way of assisting people in their growth toward spiritual maturity. Yet, spiritual direction remains a relatively unknown and undervalued link to the life of the spirit despite people's need for guidance. Often, ministers who are normally expected to offer spiritual direction are reluctant to engage in it. This dissertation proposes to reassure clergy and encourage them to risk engagement in spiritual direction. The first section seeks to clarify spiritual direction by providing definitions and distinguishing it from similar disciplines. The second section situates spiritual direction in the history, tradition, and present conversation of the Church. The …

Assessment Of Fungal Diversity Using Terminal Restriction Fragment (Trf) Pattern Analysis: Comparison Of 18s And Its Ribosomal Regions, N. S. Lord, Christopher W. Kaplan, P. Shank, Christopher L. Kitts, Susan L. Elrod Dec 2002

Assessment Of Fungal Diversity Using Terminal Restriction Fragment (Trf) Pattern Analysis: Comparison Of 18s And Its Ribosomal Regions, N. S. Lord, Christopher W. Kaplan, P. Shank, Christopher L. Kitts, Susan L. Elrod

Biological Sciences

Assessment of fungal diversity in environmental samples is currently a challenge. Several recently developed molecular methods offer new avenues for determining the presence and diversity of fungi in complex microbial communities. Terminal restriction fragment (TRF) pattern analysis was tested as a method for assessing the fungal molecular diversity of a terrestrial microbial community. Community DNA was isolated from sand samples taken from a pilot-scale petroleum-contaminated land treatment unit. PCR amplification was carried out using primers, one of which was fluorescently labeled, designed to hybridize to conserved sequences in the fungal ribosomal small subunit (18S) or the internal transcribed spacer ITS1–5.8S–ITS2 …

Putting A Value On Cornstalks, Donald Guthmiller Dec 2002

Putting A Value On Cornstalks, Donald Guthmiller

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Beef producers in hard-hit drought areas of South Dakota have expressed interest in purchasing baled cornstalks from growers in the eastern part of the state. There is no hard-and-fast rule about what to charge for a bale. Cornstalks, supplemented properly, can supply the nutritional needs for beef cows in moderately good condition during the fall and early winter. The advantage of using cornstalks as roughage for beef cows is the availability and the low cost. In most situations stalks can be used for livestock bedding as well. As in any market, buyer and seller must settle on a price. There …
