    Letter from Joseph J. Cotter to Carl Hayden detailing the approximate amount of patented land within the proposed borders of the national park. Thomas J. Croaff is mentioned in his belief that he owns half the land in the proposed area; however, Joseph J. Cotter disputes this claim. Ralph Cameron's mining interests in the park are also mentioned. Circa 1917

    Characterization Methods for Fractured Glacial Tills

    No full text
    ABSTRACT. This paper provides a literature review of methods successfully employed to characterize fine-grained and fractured or unfractured glacial deposits. Descriptions and examples are given for four major categories of characterization methods: physical, hydraulic, chemical, and indirect. Characterization methods have evolved significantly within the past ten years; however, there still exists uncertainty about the reliability of individual characterization methods applied to till deposits. Therefore, a combination of methods is best, the choice of which depends on the objectives of the work. Sampling methods, sampling scales, and reporting methods are extremely important and should be considered when interpreting and comparing results between sites. Recognition of these issues is necessary to ensure that decisions regarding the transport of fluids in fractured tills are not based on the assumption that poorly permeable tills are always an inhibitor of subsurface flow.

    Characterization and structure in the development of Tudor comedy

    No full text
    The role of characterization in dramatic structure is assessed by theoretical criteria. Characters who perform actions necessary for the completion of the narrative sequence are said to be "bound" to the narrative; those without such obligations are "free". Characters who maintain a single, constant meaning during the course of a play are said to be "static"; characters who change or develop into new roles are "dynamic". Horatian decorum demanded that comic characters be static, and the characters of Plautine and Terentian tradition were almost always bound to narrative intrigue. However, evaluations of six Tudor comedies show an increasing use of non-classical characterization within the comic form. In the early comedies lohan lohan and Roister Doister all characters are bound and static, yet the impetus to enlarge the role of characterization is evident. The characters of lohan lohan are expanded from their French source, and Roister Doister includes extraneous episodes in which Udall displays his braggart hero. Free characters abound in Misogonus; as well the play brings dynamic characterization into the scope of comedy with the conversion of its prodigal son. Free characters offer new possibilities of non-narrative plotting. In comedies of the 1580s favourite traditional characters appear as diversions outside the action, and thematic arrangements of characters inform the increasingly complex plots. Lyly stresses the symbolic potential of characters in Endimion, whereas Greene uses dynamic characterization to heighten the illusion of independent figures in Friar Bacon and Friar Bungay. Love's Labour's Lost exposes the limitations of comic artifice by pulling the characters between convention and individualization. By the end of the sixteenth century free and dynamic characters had become common, and characterization had established a sizable claim on the design of English comedy. These developments set the English form apart from its neoclassical counterparts

    No full text
    This 34-page spiral bound booklet includes a detailed strategic plan for the University of Georgia School of Law. Although portions of the planning booklet are works of the collective departments at the School of Law, the plan bears the Dean of the Law School\u27s name as author, J. Ralph Beaird. In the introduction Beaird notes that the blueprint goal is to provide an objective appraisal o four past as well as a purposeful and specific plan for the future . He goes on to outline that the analysis will be concerned with the \u27four pillars\u27 of quality education - students, instruction, library, and physical plant . The second paragraph of the introduction also notes that the blueprint will highlight a three-year plan for achieving excellence

    Theory and applications of a functional from metric geometry

    No full text
    For positive α\alpha, and for complex measures μ\mu and ν\nu on R\sp{n}, define J\sp\alpha(\mu,\nu)=\int\int\vert x-y\vert\sp\alpha\ d\mu(x)d\bar \nu(y). Study of the energy integral J\sp\alpha has its roots in metric embedding theory and potential theory. Subject to certain moment vanishing conditions, a representation formula is proved using the Fourier transform and tempered distributions. Ideas from integral geometry are used to apply the functional J\sp\alpha to irregularities of distribution, and estimates of discrepancy are obtained for measures that do not have atoms. Finally, the close relation between J\sp1 and the Radon transform is investigated. Inequalities are deduced that bound certain norms of the Radon transform away from zero.Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T13:24:15Z (GMT).
