    Struggling for Context: An Appraisal of “Struggling for Air”

    No full text
    In their recent book, Struggling for Air, Ricky Revesz and Jack Lienke argue that the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1970 contained a "tragic flaw": the failure to require national emissions standards for existing coal-fired power plants. They blame this flaw on a "missing of the mark," primarily by Senator Edmund Muskie, the chief Senate sponsor of the 1970 Amendments. I suggest instead that the technological and political context of the 1970 Amendments explains why the flaw exists, and that the failure to include national standards for coal-fired power plants is an error that can be seen only in retrospect.Please direct any questions about this deposit to me, as the authorized depositor.

    Prevention of Significant Deterioration: A Scalpel, Not an Axe

    No full text
    Does the United States need the Clean Air Act’s Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) program to guard against degradation of air quality? In their recent Comment in these pages, John C. Evans and Donald van der Vaart say no, but the right answer is more nuanced. While the program is flawed in some respects, PSD helps to protect national parklands, guard against pollution “hot spots,” and decrease air pollution emission levels in the United States, thus helping to remedy regional pollution problems.Please direct any questions about this deposit to me as the authorized depositor

    Craig Schuftan on romanticism and rock n roll

    No full text
    Who knew Lord Byron had something in common with My Chemical Romance? Armed with an encyclopaedic knowledge of pop culture, Craig Schuftan traces the history of romanticism in rock n roll, drawing comparisons between 19th century poetic giants and the heroes of indie, glam and emo music. In this talk with Zan Rowe, Schuftan explores the links between music, philosophy and literature and why nobody wants to own up to being emo. Craig Schuftan is a radio producer, programmer and presenter of the Culture Club on triple j. He is also the author of the book "Hey Nietzsche! Leave Them Kids Alone." Zan Rowe presents the "Mornings with Zan" show on triple j radio. &nbsp

Antenna: evenly dark brown; 0.42 mm long; basal article curved, distal article 0.12 mm long, extended just beyond apex of labral­fan stem. Labral fan: stem brown and markedly hairy; 23 rays, 0.7 mm in length, brown, 2–3 posterolateral rays finer than others, medial rays 0.02 mm in width, microtrichia of medial rays 0.8 times ray width, pattern of longer microtrichia with 14–15 smaller ones, decreased abruptly in length to next long one, pattern very distinct, apex of ray markedly extended. Postgenal cleft (Fig. 8): markedly U­shaped, 0.6 times deep as wide; postgenal bridge 1.2 times longer than cleft depth. Hypostoma (Fig. 9): 15 teeth, median tooth subequal in length to other teeth; adjacent sublateral teeth smaller; other sublateral teeth peg­like, subequal in length, apices forming curved line laterally; lateral teeth not distinct; 1 paralateral tooth; 2 lateral serrations; 9–10 hypostomal setae per side, some bases closely situated. Mandible (Fig. 10): apical teeth heavily sclerotized and blunt; 8 substantial spinous teeth decreased abruptly in length to serration; serration basal width 1.2 times height, anterior convex edge 2.0 times longer than concave posterior edge; sensillum poorly developed. Mandibular phragma: extended ventrally to 0.3 of maxilla base. Maxilla: tapered, palpus 0.076 mm in length, 0.032 mm in basal width. Thorax: dark brown dorsally and laterally, median pale line anteriorly (Fig. 15); sternum pale. Abdomen: segments I–IV narrower than thorax, not increased in size posteriorly; segments V–VII increased gradually to maximum width at segment VII, then decreased smoothly. Posteroventral tubercles absent. Posterodorsal cuticle with closely­packed, small, dark brown tubercles; setae numerous with raised dark sockets (Fig. 11). Anal sclerite (Fig. 12): junction between anterior and posterior arms heavily pigmented and massive, anterior arms short and sharply tapered; posterolateral arms extended laterally to form heavily tuberculate, wing­like lobes, junction with accessory sclerite tenuous; accessory sclerite heavily pigmented and extended anteriorly to form anterolateral sclerite; posterolateral arms 4.0 times longer than anterolateral arms and extended 0.6 distance around posterior proleg; cuticle surrounding sclerite markedly setose. Posterior proleg circlet of hooks: with 163 rows of hooks, 25–27 hooks per row. Rectal papillae: complex. Additional material examined Tahiti­nui. Vaitamanu Vly Rd, 2 nd cscd. 400 m. 11 ­viii­ 1996.

Joy (larvae. DAC). Etymology Named for its probable basal phylogenetic relationship to S. lonckei. Comments Larvae of S. sublonckei are similar in colouration and shape to those of S. lonckei and initially difficult to distinguish. Indeed, a misidentification was made by Craig (1997) where his Figure 63 is not of the larval head of S. lonckei, but is that of S. sublonckei. Further, the Vaitamanu locality given by Craig and Joy (2000) for S. lonckei is actually that for S. sublonckei. Larvae of both of these species are also similar to those of S. joyae (Fig 14), but they can be distinguished by the sharp lateral cut­off of the abdominal dorsal pigmentation and cuticular tubercles, the distinct pale ecdysial line on the anterior thorax, a broader anterior head, labral fans with more rays and a distinct medial hypostomal tooth. Simulium sublonckei with broader anterior and posterior cephalic apotome (cf. Figs. 13– 15), would appear to be the more plesiomorphic of these three related species. Similar in habitat preference to S. lonckei and S. joyae, S. sublonckei is found only in cascades (Fig. 28). It occurs on both Tahiti­nui and Tahiti­iti, as does also S. joyae. At present, S. lonckei is known only from cascades on Tahiti­iti, a point of possible biogeographic significance. The type locality cascade of S. sublonckei has been well collected over the years (e.g., Craig and Joy 2000, Craig 2001). With a preponderance of larvae of S. cataractarum, those of other species collected are S. arlecchinum, S. dussertorum, S. fararae, S. fossatiae, S. hirticranium, S. malardei, S. oviceps and S. neoviceps. With ten species this cascade has the greatest richness of any Tahitian locality (Craig 1997, 2001), however, in comparison to simuliid habitats elsewhere (Adler et al. 2004), it is not unusual.Published as part of Craig, Douglas A., 2004, Three new species of Inseliellum (Diptera: Simuliidae) from Polynesia, pp. 1-18 in Zootaxa 450 on pages 6-10, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.15795
