Kicking A Gift Horse In The Mouth, Mark Y. Herring

Dacus Library Faculty Publications

Yes, of course I know the expression is “Don’t look,” not kicking, but our collective professional behavior makes “kicking” the more operative and appropriate verbal. More about this in due course. As an expression, “don’t look a gift horse in the mouth” comes to us from the Lain, Noli equi dentes inspicere donate. Some argue Jerome said it first in 400 A.D., in which his words, very nearly our Latin literally translated, ran, “Never inspect the teeth of a gift horse.”

The Economic Impact Of Crp Acres In South Dakota Returning To Crop Production, Gary Taylor, Larry Janssen

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

The Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) was created in the 1985 Farm Bill as a program to remove highly erodible and environmentally sensitive land from agricultural production for from 10 to 15 years. Although CRP was originally viewed as a supply control program it rapidly evolved into a program that met many environmental objectives. In 2007 South Dakota had 729,397 acres of CRP contracts expired, which was nearly 47% of the 1.56 million acres enrolled in the program. During this period, there was no new farm bill or new CRP policy provisions. The policy environment in late 2006 and most of …

The BOI team believes this detonation may have occurred as a result of the deminer having leant forward from a safe point and thrown a marking stone down onto the ground. His aim may have been off and he may have inadvertently thrown the stone onto a mine that had not previously been found in the lane. The mine has detonated, propelling the marking stone and other stones back at him with the marking stone striking him in the chest and the remaining stones having caused the injuries around the forehead and eyes. Unfortunately these injuries have resulted in his …

It is unusual for a severe foot injury to occur during excavation. The Victim must have been standing or squatting and, despite mention of a “trowel”, he may have been using the ubiquitous “pick”. The Inadequate equipment listed under Notes refers to the use of inappropriate tools, as identified by the investigators. If he was using a trowel, it is likely that he did not pinpoint the detector signal correctly and so began excavating on top of the mine, as has been reported with several other accidents in this theatre at this time.

Global CWD Repository

The primary cause of this accident is listed as a Field Control Inadequacy because the investigators determined that the supervisor allowed the machine to work in bad weather and did not correct the driver’s error. The secondary cause is listed as Victim Inattention because it seems that the driver did not intend to reverse out of the cleared area. There may have been inadequate area marking in place.

It is the conclusion of the investigation team that the carelessness of involved team leader cased the accident. As he intentionally picked up the device and tampered it without taking precautionary measures in to consideration

Nigel J. Watson, longtime real estate agent and activist, moved into the Presbyterian Towers in 2004. Located at 430 Bay Street NE in downtown St. Petersburg, this facility has offered senior residential living since opening in 1968. In the early 1960s, Southwest Florida Presbyterians sought solutions to the problem of people (mostly retirees) who had difficulty locating affordable housing. With loan assistance from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, local Presbyteries began to build facilities. As of summer 2008, the Presbyterian Homes and Housing Foundation of Florida, Inc., operated Presbyterian Towers with sponsorship by the Tampa Bay …

Paper titled “The Jelly Snatcher” in which folk studies student Vickie Wright Carden details the paranormal activity surrounding Nancy Frew, a 23 year-old Bowling Green native, and her roommate, Vicki Taylor.

Carden offers possible theories relating to the poltergeist encounters, and even posits that Frew, along with her couch, attract the …

You see, the government, led by the Environmental Protection Agency (環保署), is encouraging people to refrain from a favorite evening activity, namely the family (or community barbeque. According to agency estimates, this could help reduce the island’s carbon footprint, as over 6,000 tons of CO2 would be produced if even one-third of the nation’s residents fired up their grills. Subsequently, numerous city …

In Case You Missed It: Fragile Superpower

I was in the Chicago O’Hare Airport a few weeks ago and noticed that a re-release of Peter Navarro’s The Coming China Wars: Where They Will Be Fought and How They Can Be Won had made it onto that prized bit of airport-bookstore real estate, the shelf directly below the cash register. Anyone who has followed news on China in the past decade is familiar with the narrative Navarro, a professor of business, spins out here in hyperbolic boldface. His view, as one reviewer put it, is that “the Chinese will eat us for lunch” by building a massive military, …
