Mali: A Day In The Village December 2009, Intsormil

USAID Mali Mission Awards

Approximately 80 percent of Malians engage in agriculture as a source of income, producing cotton, millet, sorghum and rice. Nearly twothirds of the country lives below the poverty line, and 74 percent earn less than $2 a day. The most productive land is located near the Niger river. Droughts and locust swarms regularly challenge agricultural and pastoral ways of life.

The INTSORMIL Program collaborates with the Malian National Program, IER in the promotion of sorghum and pearl millet production and marketing. INTSORMIL host country coordinator Mamourou Diourte (white cap) is shown at a field day promoting the production of an …

Bringing Toxicology Into The 21st Century: A Global Call To Action, Troy Seidle, Martin Stephens

Experimentation Collection

Conventional toxicological testing methods are often decades old, costly and low-throughput, with questionable relevance to the human condition. Several of these factors have contributed to a backlog of chemicals that have been inadequately assessed for toxicity. Some authorities have responded to this challenge by implementing large-scale testing programmes. Others have concluded that a paradigm shift in toxicology is warranted. One such call came in 2007 from the United States National Research Council (NRC), which articulated a vision of ‘‘21st century toxicology” based predominantly on non-animal techniques. Potential advantages of such an approach include the capacity to examine a far greater …

Animal Cognition, Kristin Andrews, Ljiljana Radenovic

Sentience Collection

Debates in applied ethics about the proper treatment of animals often refer to empirical data about animal cognition, emotion, and behavior. In addition, there is increasing interest in the question of whether any nonhuman animal could be something like a moral agent.

Improving Udder Health And Milk Quality, Michelle Flatt

Dairy Science

The objective of this study was to improve udder health and milk quality through the use of an on farm culture based treatment program. Milk samples were collected from mastitis cows, fresh cows, and high somatic cell count cows (cows with greater than 400,000 cells/mL in the last two DHIA tests) and cultured on bi plates; each side consisting of a selective medium for either gram positive bacteria and gram negative bacteria. The plates were then incubated for 24 hours and examined for growth. When growth was present, the infected quarter(s) were treated with cephapirin sodium for two consecutive milkings. …

La Libertad De Conciencia En Miguel De Unamuno, Kevin Fagan

World Languages and Cultures

“Winning is not convincing” was the response of the Rector of the University of Salamanca, Miguel de Unamuno, when faced with the military arrogance of General Millán-Astray during the Spanish Civil War. Speaking truth to power, these last public words uttered by Unamuno rise up as the capstone of the courageous defense of freedom of conscience by an academic against despotism. Here we analyze his literary and philosophical thought throughout a life of writings consistent with his personal sufferings on behalf of conscience. His multiple witnesses in defense of freedom of thought, expression and action are based on deep meditation …

Organic Carbon Content In Surface And Subsurface Soil On A Toposequence On The Peterson Ranch In Poly Canyon, San Luis Obispo, Renee Michelle Nall

Earth and Soil Sciences

Soil organic carbon (SOC) is directly related to soil organic matter (SOM), and is important in the functionality and stability of terrestrial ecosystems. Soil organic carbon is also an important pool for C storage and small changes of SOC may cause significant gains and losses in the large scale carbon cycle. The mechanisms by which SOC is transported and stored however are not widely studied. This study was conducted to determine if there is a relationship between toposequence and SOC in a small watershed on the Peterson Ranch, San Luis Obispo, CA. Nine soil pits were dug on various hillslope …

Relationship Between Tissue Carotenoid Concentrations In The Pacific Mole Crab, Emerita Analoga, And Parasitism By The Acanthocephalan, Profilicollis Altmani, Whitney Melroy

Biological Sciences

Acanthocephalan worms infect two hosts to reach full development. Some species have been demonstrated to change their intermediate host’s behavior or coloration to increase the likelihood they will reach the final host. The pacific mole crab, Emerita analoga, is commonly parasitized by Profilicollis altmani along the Pacific coast of North and South America, but the impact of parasitism on the crab intermediate host is unclear. We investigated whether P. altmani alters the concentration of dietary carotenoids present in E. analoga tissues and if the parasite may also acquire pigments normally allocated to the host. Fifty eight gravid female crabs were …

Promoting The Cal Poly Dairy Science Department Through Advertising, Nisa Marie Gallichio

Dairy Science

Promotion and advertising is a key aspect in a successful dairy operation. It allows for elite cows, offspring, and students to be showcased not only locally but nationwide as well and it has potential of allowing other industry professionals to invest in the quality genetics being advertised. This article gives a step by step guide showing how to successfully organize a photo shoot, submit the photo to the Holstein World Collegiate Issue, gather material necessary to creating an ad showcasing the cows at Cal Poly as well as updating the website.
