No full textLetter dated 29 October 1984 from Rodney A. Briggs, Executive Vice President of the American Society of Agronomy and two related societies, to Lorenzo A. Richards regarding membership renewalAMERICAN SOCIETY OF AGRONOMY CROP SCIENCE SOCIETY OF AMERICA SOIL SCIENCE SOCIETY OF AMERICA 677 South Segoe Road • Madison Wl • 53711 • (608) 274-1212 29 October 1984 Dear Member: It is amazing to me that the end of 1984 is advancing so rapidly. With this realization, we must prepare for the American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America and Soil Science Society of America membership renewal for the 1985 calendar year. I\u27m sure you\u27ll agree with me that membership in our Societies is one of the best bargains in the professional world today. This has been a wery productive year for the Societies. Many good papers have been published; you have had the opportunity to express your views about the Societies, its publications and various other areas via the membership survey; the Short-Term Enrichment Program for foreign graduate students studying in the United States was initiated; the Placement Service activities have been increased; and numerous other membership services have been started, continued or expanded. Note, too, that again this year your membership dues have not increased. Beginning this year, you are being given the opportunity to receive your Agronomy Journal, Crop Science or SSSA Journal in microfiche form in place of the printed edition. If you wish the microfiche form, simply mark your renewal in the place provided. You will not want to miss any of the services provided with your membership, so don\u27t hesitate or put your enclosed renewal notice aside. Fill it out now, attach your payment and mail it today. Not only will it save you the bother of looking up the form again or maybe forgetting to renew, but it will help us to get a head start on the processing of the 1985 renewals. &R^ Rodney A.

A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1
No full textSpectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1

Historical antecedents of /h/, /s/, /j/ and /ř/ in Utkuhiksalik (Inuktitut)
No full textUtkuhiksalik is a sub-dialect of Natsilik within the Western Canadian Inuit dialect continuum. Unlike many Western dialects, Utkuhiksalik contrasts /h/ and /s/, /j/ and /ř/. The goal of this paper is to show how such contrasts arose: we describe the sound changes from Proto-Eskimoan *j, *ð, and *c to Utkuhiksalik /h/, /s/, /j/ and /ř/.L’utkuhiksalik est un sous-dialecte natsilik qui se situe dans le continuum dialectal de l’inuit de l’ouest du Canada. Contrairement à bien d’autres dialectes de l’ouest, l’utkuhiksalik démontre une opposition phonologique entre /h/ et /s/, /j/ et /ř/. Le but de cet article est d’esquisser comment ces contrastes se sont développés: nous décrivons les changements historiques à partir des sons proto-esquimaux *j, *ð, et *c jusqu’aux sons utkuhiksalik /h/, /s/, /j/, et /ř/
