A Road Map For Corporate Governance In East Asia, Chee Keong Low

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Much has transpired since the inadequacies of corporate governance practices in East Asia were glaringly exposed by the Asian financial crisis. The crisis brought to the foreground numerous deficiencies, which had common roots in excessive over-leverage as well as the lack of transparency, disclosure and accountability. These issues have been explicitly recognized with the release of the White Paper on Corporate Governance in Asia by the Asian Roundtable on Corporate Governance in June 2003.

By responding in part to the White Paper, this article sets out a "roadmap" whose ultimate objective is the enhancement of the practice of corporate governance …

Mimosa 2004, Jacksonville State University

JSU Yearbooks

The JSU Yearbook Collection spans the years from 1926 to the present. The publication began in 1926 as the Teacola (some volumes spelled "Teacoala") and continued under this title through 1933. The yearbook appears to have ceased printing after that year; the student newspaper took the name Teacola (later changed to the Collegian and finally the Chanticleer) and began publication in 1934. The yearbook started up again in 1947 under the name Mimosa. The Library holds all volume years that were printed: 1926-1933, 1947-1950, 1952-present.

An Administrator’S Perspective Of Trends In Community Mental Health: An Interview With Norman J. Groetzinger, Edward Gumz

Social Work: School of Social Work Faculty Publications and Other Works

In this interview, Norman J. Groetzinger discusses major trends and challenges in community men- tal health since 1975 when he became executive director of the Counseling Center of Lake View, in a Chicago neighborhood. He places these trends in broa der state and federal contexts and illustrates how mental health agencies and the Counseling Center of Lake View, in particular, have responded to these challenges. Many times persons with mental illn ess were better served as a result, but at times the changes ended up complicating how professionals go about doing their work.

Evaluation Of Initial Implants For Finishing Heifers, Travis B. Farran, Galen E. Erickson, Terry J. Klopfenstein, Gary Sides, Chris Reinhardt, Bill Dicke, Jim S. Drouillard

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

A commercial feedyard experiment evaluated initial implant strategies for feedlot heifers. Heifers were administered either Revalor-IH or Synovex-H at initial processing, with both treatment groups receiving Revalor-200 as a common terminal implant. Implanting heifers initially with Revalor-IH improved feed efficiency and ADG compared to heifers implanted initially with Synovex-H. In addition, Revalor- IH implanted heifers had higher marbling scores while 58% more carcasses achieved the upper two-thirds Choice category. There were no differences in USDA yield grades. Selling Revalor- IH implanted heifers on a carcass merit basis returned $14.22/head more than Synovex-H implanted heifers. New reduced-dose initial implants can improve …

Phosphorus Requirement For Finishing Heifers, Bobbi Gene Geisert, Galen E. Erickson, Terry J. Klopfenstein, Casey N. Macken

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Sixty head of crossbred heifers (614 lb initial BW) were individually fed one of five levels of phosphorus of 0.10, 0.17, 0.24, 0.31, 0.38 % of diet DM with supplemental P from monosodium phosphate. Heifers were fed an energy-dense diet composed primarily of corn starch and corn fiber to minimize P from corn. When compared to the other four levels, heifers fed at the 0.10 % P level had lower DMI, ADG and final BW. Heifers fed 0.10%P had lower plasma P concentration. Breakpoint analysis of ADG suggests that the P requirement for finishing heifers is 0.115% P of diet …

Conjugated Linoleic Acid Metabolism And Body Fat Loss In Mice, Kim Hargrave, Brett Meyer, Jess L. Miner

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Mice were fed conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) with or without fish oil or aspirin, which deplete tissue arachidonic acid and block arachidonic acid metabolism, respectively. Mice fed fish oil did not lose body fat when supplemented with CLA but mice fed soy oil did. Aspirin did not alter CLA-induced body fat loss. CLA may be metabolized to an isomer of arachidonic acid to induce a loss of body fat. However, this body fat loss is apparently not mediated via alteration of prostaglandin synthesis. Understanding the regulation of body fat by CLA may offer insight into the mechanisms of body fat …

Hydrogen Sulfide Concentration In Vicinity Of Beef Cattle Feedlots, Richard K. Koelsch, Bryan L. Woodbury, David E. Stenberg, Daniel N. Miller, Dennis D. Schulte

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

A field survey of Total Reduced Sulfur (TRS) concentrations in the vicinity of beef cattle feedlots was conducted to compare field observations against current regulatory thresholds. It was observed that TRS levels in the vicinity of beef cattle feedlots are not likely to exceed current regulatory thresholds used by Nebraska. It was further noted concentration of TRS varies with air temperature and time of day. However, wet feedlot surface conditions had almost no impact upon observed TRS concentrations. Feedlots typically do not contribute significant hydrogen sulfide emissions and are unlikely to produce concentrations in excess of current Nebraska Department of …

Effect Of Gestation And Supplementation On Intake Of Low-Quality Forage, Tim W. Loy, Don C. Adams, Terry J. Klopfenstein, Jacqueline A. Musgrave, Andrew F. Applegarth

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Eighteen spring-calving heifers were paired by expected calving date and assigned to treatment. Treatments were a high undegradable intake protein supplement (CON) or one based on dry corn gluten feed (TRT). Heifers were fed to consume low-quality hay ad libitum. Supplement type did not affect body condition, milk production, or calf ADG. TRT heifers lost less weight than CON heifers. There was no effect of supplement on forage intake. Intake changed cubically with respect to calving; decreasing 17% during the three weeks prior to calving, and increasing 18% the week after calving.

Consumer Preference And Value Of Beef With Country-Of-Origin Labeling, Bethany M. Sitz, Chris R. Calkins, Wendy J. Umberger, Dillon M. Feuz

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

The 2002 Farm Bill mandates country- of-origin labeling for beef and other items by 2004. A majority (69.2%) of consumers in Denver and Chicago preferred a fresh beef strip steak with a label guaranteeing the meat came from a U.S. animal over an unlabeled steak. On average, consumers were willing to pay 18.7% more ($0.81/lb) for labeled product. When 17 attributes were rated for their desirability when purchasing beef, country-of- origin labeling ranked ninth; “freshness” and “inspected for food safety” were the most popular selection criteria. Food safety concerns were the primary reason consumers preferred beef labeled with country of …

Impact Of Cleaning Frequency On Nitrogen Balance In Open Feedlot Pens, Casey B. Wilson, Galen E. Erickson, Casey N. Macken, Terry J. Klopfenstein

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports

Pen cleaning frequency of feedlot pens was evaluated during the summer of 2001 and 2002. Dry matter, organic matter and nitrogen recoveries were evaluated on a per head basis. Cleaning pens monthly compared to cleaning at the end of the feeding period resulted in significantly more DM, OM and N recovered. Cleaning pens every month increased N removal by 7.0 lb per steer (49.9% increase) above manure N removed at the end of the feeding period.

The Self-Perceptions Of Adolescents With Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Patricia Bitar

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), which affects 3 -- 6% of school- aged children, is considered one of the most common behavioral disorders of childhood. Of those, up to 70% will continue to have symptoms into adolescence. Adolescence is a critical transitional period on the route to adulthood that has the building of self-identity as its chief developmental task. Adults with positive self-perceptions tend to be more productive members of society. Most of the studies directed at understanding the self-perceptions of those with ADHD have been done with children and those studies have yielded mixed results. There are practically no …
