Every indication points to a great meeting. The plan will be to agree upon definite measures for the development and use of our natural resources. The keynote of the Congress will be practical work.Colonel Roosevelt and other men of national and international prominence have accepted invitations to address the Congress.It is particularly important that the Congress shall be representative of all organizations interested in the Conservation movement. We hope greatly, therefore, that you oan be present, and that you will also appoin five delegates for the Sierra Club.Since the time is short, please send the names and addresses of these delegates to Mr. Thomas R. Shipp, Execuitve Secretary.National Conservation Congress, St. Paul, Minnesota, at the earliest possible moment.Sincerely yours,[illegible]Chairman, Board of Managers.[illegible]President of the Congress.https://scholarlycommons.pacific.edu/jmcl/31892/thumbnail.jp
The evolution of the Grid
No full textIn this paper we describe the evolution of grid systems, identifying three generations: first generation systems which were the forerunners of the Grid as we recognise it today; second generation systems with a focus on middleware to support large scale data and computation; and third generation systems where the emphasis shifts to distributed global collaboration, a service oriented approach and information layer issues. In particular, we discuss the relationship between the Grid and the World Wide Web, and suggest that evolving web technologies will provide the basis for the next generation of the Grid. The latter aspect – which we define as the Semantic Grid – is explored in a companion paper
Letter from Lillian Baker to Erwin N. Thompson, National Park Service, May 18, 1984
No full textPhotocopy of letter from Lillian Baker to Erwin Thompson submitting guidelines for the proposed national historic landmark site at Manzanar, California with book order form and award notice attached.The Japanese American Relocation Collection is composed of ephemera related to the relocation program during World War II. Items include the official government report of Manzanar Relocation Center, a photo album, post-war activism materials related to preserving and remembering the camps, various clippings, and documents. The strength of this collection is found in its many perspectives on the controversial relocation program and how it has been presented since World War II
Aheatherella Seeman & Minor & Baker & Walter 2018, n. gen.
No full textAheatherella n. gen. Seeman, Minor, Baker & Walter Type species— Aheatherella mira n. sp. Diagnosis: With the revised characteristics of the family (see above). Adult: sternal seta st1 on sclerotised jugularia; peritremes present, short but well-developed; ventral seta JV3 well-developed, not inserted on anal rim; opisthogaster with deep concavities flanking anus and with ten pairs of setae (ZV5 present), setae JV5 placed ventrally, directly behind JV4; marginal protuberances with their setae closely associated, arising on dorsal surface of each protuberance; tibia I with 12 setae (av2 absent). Dorsal shields monomorphic: both sexes with entire podonotal-mesonotal shield; lateral shields divided into podonotal and mesonotal sections; dorsal and lateral shields free anteriorly from marginal shield. Male: setae st5 on sternogenital shield. Etymology: The generic name is derived from the type genus of the family and the prefix ‘a’, Greek for ‘not’ or ‘away from’.Published as part of Seeman, Owen D., Minor, Maria, Baker, Michelle R. & Walter, David Evans, 2018, A revision of the Heatherellidae (Parasitiformes: Mesostigmata) with a new genus and two new species from Australasia, pp. 441-465 in Zootaxa 4434 (3) on page 452, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4434.3.3, http://zenodo.org/record/129218
Processes, microstructure and properties of vanadium microalloyed steels
No full textVanadium as an important alloying element in steels was initially associated with the properties achieved following tempering. Interest in the microstructure was stimulated by the advent of transmission electron microscopes with a resolution of ~1nm together with selected area electron diffraction techniques. A second timely development was that of controlled rolling, particularly of plate and sheet products. The scope of this review will include the historical background on quenched and tempered vanadium steels, precipitation during isothermal aging, conventional controlled rolling and during thin slab direct charging and the development of strength and toughness in vanadium microalloyed steels. The characterisation of microstructure, in particular the methods for the analysis of the chemical composition of precipitates, has progressed since the availability of X-ray energy dispersive analysis in the 1970s, and the role played by electron energy loss spectroscopy in providing quantitative analysis of carbon and nitrogen in vanadium microalloyed steels will be presented. There are still many topics involving vanadium microalloyed steels that are controversial. These include the nucleation sequence of homogeneous precipitates of vanadium carbonitride and whether this occurs coherently, the composition of the vanadium precipitates, the nucleation mechanism for interphase precipitation, the importance of strain induced precipitation in austenite of vanadium carbonitride, the contributions of both interphase precipitation and random precipitation in ferrite to the yield strength, and the role of the process route parameters in developing properties. These topics will be considered in this paper which concentrates on hot rolled vanadium microalloyed steels placed in the context of pertinent research on other alloys
