Tribalism Is Consuming The World, Aldemaro Romero Jr. Oct 2017

Tribalism Is Consuming The World, Aldemaro Romero Jr.

Publications and Research

There is a ghost wandering countries, societies, and even the halls of academia. It is the ghost of tribalism and that ghost is as old as the dawn of the human species.

One of the defining characteristics of people around the world, is to group ourselves for our own ben- efit. Since before any civilization could be described as such, we bound together to defend ourselves from other humans, for cooperating to seek food, to build our shelters, and many more things. That is why we fought wars, conquered territories, subjugate others, and developed characteristics that define ourselves based on …

Biennial Convention (CONV)

We present evidence related to factors that influence the structure, and subsequently function, of gastrointestinal(GI) microbiota in the general and pregnant population. Clinicians can benefit from understanding the implications that GI microbiota has for disease and wellness to clinically address the factors that adversely influence the GI microbiota during pregnancy.


Bibliotaxonomy: Definition, Scope And Implication For Lis Scholarship, Chuma O. Nnadozie Oct 2017

Bibliotaxonomy: Definition, Scope And Implication For Lis Scholarship, Chuma O. Nnadozie

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

The paper introduces bibliotaxonomy as a generic name for those aspects of Library and Information Science (LIS) scholarship that deal with the processing and organization of books, documents and other information materials. It traces the origin of, and inspiration for bibliotaxonomy to different taxonomic practices in various communities, societies, as well as earlier philosophical and botanical classifications. A sketch of the contours of the field of bibliotaxonomy was presented which shows that this phenomenon cuts across specific library technical services of cataloguing, classification, indexing and accessioning. In addition, successful application of taxonomic principles from other disciplines in the organization of …

The hippocampus is critical for episodic memory, and synaptic changes induced by long-term potentiation (LTP) are thought to underlie memory formation. In rodents, hippocampal LTP may be induced through electrical stimulation of the perforant path. To test whether similar techniques could improve episodic memory in humans, we implemented a microstimulation technique that allowed delivery of low-current electrical stimulation via 100 μm-diameter microelectrodes. As thirteen neurosurgical patients performed a person recognition task, microstimulation was applied in a theta-burst pattern, shown to optimally induce LTP. Microstimulation in the right entorhinal area during learning significantly improved subsequent memory specificity for novel portraits; participants …

Genome-Wide Association Studies Of Smooth Pursuit And Antisaccade Eye Movements In Psychotic Disorders: Findings From The B-Snip Study, R. Lencer, L. J. Mills, Ney Alliey-Rodriguez, R. Shafee Oct 2017

Genome-Wide Association Studies Of Smooth Pursuit And Antisaccade Eye Movements In Psychotic Disorders: Findings From The B-Snip Study, R. Lencer, L. J. Mills, Ney Alliey-Rodriguez, R. Shafee

School of Medicine Publications

Eye movement deviations, particularly deficits of initial sensorimotor processing and sustained pursuit maintenance, and antisaccade inhibition errors, are established intermediate phenotypes for psychotic disorders. We here studied eye movement measures of 849 participants from the Bipolar-Schizophrenia Network on Intermediate Phenotypes (B-SNIP) study (schizophrenia N = 230, schizoaffective disorder N = 155, psychotic bipolar disorder N = 206 and healthy controls N = 258) as quantitative phenotypes in relation to genetic data, while controlling for genetically derived ancestry measures, age and sex. A mixed-modeling genome-wide association studies approach was used including ~ 4.4 million genotypes (PsychChip and 1000 Genomes imputation). Across …


Insecticide Effects On Normal Development And Hatch Of Embryos Of Paratanytarsus Parthenogeneticus (Diptera: Chironomidae), Richard L. Anderson, Pam Shubat Oct 2017

Insecticide Effects On Normal Development And Hatch Of Embryos Of Paratanytarsus Parthenogeneticus (Diptera: Chironomidae), Richard L. Anderson, Pam Shubat

The Great Lakes Entomologist

Simple, low cost methods are needed to determine the effect of pesticides on non-target aquatic organisms. In this report, embryos of Paratanytarsus parthenogenetic us were exposed from deposition to hatch to five pesticides. Four of the five pesticides affected development or hatch only at concentrations which exceeded 96-h LC50 values of other non-target invertebrates. One pesticide, fenitrothion, affected hatch at 13 Ilgll which is similar to 96-h LC50 values for other aquatic invertebrates. Because of the low sensitivity of the embryo to pesticides, this method may not be a useful pesticide screening test for non-target invertebrates.


Mass Rearing Of The Greater Wax Moth, Galleria Mellonella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), For Small-Scale Laboratory Studies, M. A. Mohamed, H. C. Coppel Oct 2017

Mass Rearing Of The Greater Wax Moth, Galleria Mellonella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), For Small-Scale Laboratory Studies, M. A. Mohamed, H. C. Coppel

The Great Lakes Entomologist

A technique was developed to mass rear the greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella, economically (ca. 0.2 cents per larva exclusive of 3-5 h of labor costs per week). Mortality in the egg and early larval stages was ca. 48% whereas in later larval and pupal stages it was ca. 10% and 27% respectively. With a fecundity of 650-1120 eggs per female, and notwithstanding the high egg and early larval mortality, the procedure easily provides a self-sustaining culture with high yields of all stages.

Moths Of The Douglas Lake Region (Emmet And Cheboygan Counties), Michigan: Iii. Thyatiridae, Drepanidae, Lasiocampidae, Notodontidae, Lymantriidae (Lepidoptera), Edward G. Voss

The Great Lakes Entomologist

(excerpt)

The first list of Lepidoptera for the Douglas Lake region (Welch 1915) included 12 species in the group of five families for which 55 species are now reported. This 358% increase ronly in part the result of enlarging the' 'region" to include all of the two counties which share the northern tip of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan) compares with an increase of 356'4:- in the families Sphingidae-Ctenuchidae (Voss 1970) and 623% in the Noctuidae (Voss 1981). Only the Geometridae remain to complete recording the consider- able expansion of our knowledge of the local macro1epidopteran fauna over the past …

Buprestidae, Cerambycidae, And Scolytidae Associated With Successive Stages Of Agrilus Bilineatus (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) Infestation Of Oaks In Wisconsin, Robert A. Haack, Daniel M. Benjamin, Kevin D. Haack Oct 2017

Buprestidae, Cerambycidae, And Scolytidae Associated With Successive Stages Of Agrilus Bilineatus (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) Infestation Of Oaks In Wisconsin, Robert A. Haack, Daniel M. Benjamin, Kevin D. Haack

The Great Lakes Entomologist

The species of Buprestidae, Cerambycidae, and Scolytidae found in association with Agrilus bilineatus (Weber) in declining oaks, Quercus spp., in Wisconsin, were Chrysobothris femorata (Olivier) and Dicerca sp. (Buprestidae); Amniscus macula (Say),Cyrtaphorus verrucosus (Olivier), Euderces picipes (Fabricius), Graphisurus fasciatus (DeGeer), Neodytus acuminatus (Fabricius), Sarosesthes fulminans (Fabricius), and Xylotrechus colonus (Fabricius) (Cerambycidae); and Monarthrum fasciatum (Say), Monarthrum mali (Fitch), Pseudopityophthorus minutissimus (Zimmerman), and Xylaterinus politus (Say) (Scolytidae). In general, weakened oaks were first attacked by A. bilineatus. and at times that same year by C. femorata. G. fasdalus, and P. minutissimus. Infestation by M.fasciatum, M. mali, and X. politus began …


Effects Of Various Split Developmental Photophases And Constant Light During Each 24 Hour Period On Adult Morphology In Thyanta Calceata (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), J. E. Mcpherson, T. E. Vogt, S. M. Paskewitz Oct 2017

Effects Of Various Split Developmental Photophases And Constant Light During Each 24 Hour Period On Adult Morphology In Thyanta Calceata (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), J. E. Mcpherson, T. E. Vogt, S. M. Paskewitz

The Great Lakes Entomologist

Rearing immatures of Thyanta calceata in a range of split photophases during each 24 h period and in constant light showed that the adult dimorphic response in color and pu- bescence could be produced; individuals reared in photoperiods in which each scotophase was at least 2 h in length generally developed into the fall/spring morph.


Field Evaluation Of Trap Components For The Introduced Pine Sawfly, Diprion Similis (Hymenoptera: Diprionidae), H. A. Thomas Oct 2017

Field Evaluation Of Trap Components For The Introduced Pine Sawfly, Diprion Similis (Hymenoptera: Diprionidae), H. A. Thomas

The Great Lakes Entomologist

Three sizes of the Conrel Delta trap, a yellow cardboard tube trap, and the Pherocon II standard trap generally used in detection surveys were evaluated. Tests were run for 41 days in the summer of 1980 and 35 days in the spring of 1981. The lure in all traps was the standard 38-cm cotton dental roll charged with 10 female equivalents of crude virgin female pheromone extract. In 1980, all test traps outperformed the standard Pherocon II model. In 1981, the Pherocon II traps captured more males than any of the others. The catch in the Delta traps appeared to …


Technology Transfer In Forest Pest Management: A Case History, John A. Witter, Gary A. Simmons, Bruce A. Montgomery, Randall G. Rogan Oct 2017

Technology Transfer In Forest Pest Management: A Case History, John A. Witter, Gary A. Simmons, Bruce A. Montgomery, Randall G. Rogan

The Great Lakes Entomologist

The current approach being used in the spruce budworm technology transfer program for the Lake States is described. During 1981-1982, we concentrated on needs assessment surveys and the development and packaging of materials in five areas: general manual, chemical control handbook, silviculture handbook, instruction manual for remote sensing workshops, and technical reports on budworm impact on spruce-fir stands. We present a list of factors that researchers and technology transfer specialists should consider when plan- ning a research and technology transfer program in forest pest management.


A Split-Stem Lesion On Young Hybrid Populus Trees Caused By The Tarnished Plant Bug, Lygus Lineolaris (Hemiptera: [Heteroptera]: Miridae), Frank J. Sapio, Louis F. Wilson, Michael E. Ostry Oct 2017

A Split-Stem Lesion On Young Hybrid Populus Trees Caused By The Tarnished Plant Bug, Lygus Lineolaris (Hemiptera: [Heteroptera]: Miridae), Frank J. Sapio, Louis F. Wilson, Michael E. Ostry

The Great Lakes Entomologist

The tarnished plant bug, known principally as an agricultural pest, injures young hybrid Populus by feeding on the stems and meristems. Tarnished plant bug eggs, fungi associated with some lesions, and simple mechanical stimuli alone from feeding appeared not to cause lesion formation. Of 20 Populus hybrids tested in a clonal trial, four appeared to be consistently susceptible to lesion injury, with Populus nigra var. betulifolia x trichocarpa the most susceptible. Several clones showed high resistance in the trial but a few were susceptible in other plantings and in host preference tests when caged with tarnished plant bugs. Lesions diminished …


How To Combat Prenatal Substance Abuse While Also Protecting Pregnant Women: A Legislative Proposal To Create An Appropriate Balance, Kyle Kennedy Oct 2017

How To Combat Prenatal Substance Abuse While Also Protecting Pregnant Women: A Legislative Proposal To Create An Appropriate Balance, Kyle Kennedy

Arkansas Law Review

“Substance abuse in pregnancy is associated with a number of adverse outcomes for the woman, fetus, and neonate.” A recent study indicated that approximately 5.9% of pregnant women between the ages of fifteen and forty-four use illicit drugs. Prenatal illicit drug use has escalated over the past decade, causing an increase in “maternal and neonatal complications, neonatal abstinence syndrome, and health care costs.” Following alcohol and marijuana, methamphetamine is the most commonly abused drug.4 By 2006, admissions for treatment of methamphetamine abuse among pregnant women had increased to twenty-four percent of federally-funded treatment admissions, up from eight percent in 1994.
