    No full text
    Sidney MacLeod (often called Sid) was born in 1933 in Chicago, Illinois. He is the oldest of three children and the only boy. He earned his M.S.S. at Saint Mary’s College in Winona, Minnesota and his M.F.A. at Catholic University in Washington, D.C. After graduate school he was drafted into the U.S. Army where he served two years on several domestic military bases. He began working at La Salle in 1959. In 1961 he married his wife, Mary Jane. They have four children (three sons and one daughter). He continues to work at La Salle full-time. When he retires he looks forward to travelling with his wife. According to his biography on the La Salle University Communications Department website (5/6/13), If something isn’t working in the Communication Center, Chicago native Sid MacLeod is usually there to repair, replace, create, paint, or take it apart. When not maintaining everything in the Communication Center, Sid is a huge Broadway fan and he also enjoys gardening, cooking, and cleaning. A Lindback Distinguished Teaching award winner and a Distinguished Lasallian Educator, Sid teaches Media Production. Sid feels that it’s important that students are able to master the equipment, technology, and procedures for successful film, video, and audio work. Sid’s many contributions to La Salle and its students will be forever remembered with the Sid MacLeod Endowed Fund

    Grass and lupin silage in rations for beef steers supplemented with barley or potatoes

    No full text
    Twenty-eight Simmental-cross steers weighing 200 (+/- 20.5) kg were used to evaluate grass and whole plant lupin silages in terms of growth rate, dry matter (DM) intake and carcass characteristics. The chemical composition of the silages was determined and Dacron bag procedures were used to estimate DM and protein degradability. The silages were supplemented with either rolled barley or crushed potato. The lupin silage had a lactic acid fermentation with lower DM, neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and protein nitrogen than the grass silage but higher crude protein. There were no statistically significant differences in gain, carcass weight, dressing percentage or backfat levels between steers fed lupin or grass silage. DM intake of the silages was not significantly different but there was a tendency for lower DM intake of lupin silage when supplemented with potatoes. There was no difference in DM degradability between lupin and grass silages. Lupin nitrogen degraded at a significantly faster rate (24.5% h-1) compared with the grass (10.4% h-1). The effective degradation of nitrogen at a ruminal fractional outflow rate of 0.05 h-1 was 63.8% and 79.1% for grass and lupin silage, respectively. Ensiling whole plant lupin can produce a high quality silage for use in beef rations.PT: J; CR: 1984, NUTRIENT REQUIREMENT 1984, REPORT PROTEIN GROUP 1988, SAS STAT USERS GUIDE 1990, OFFICIAL METHODS ANA BUTTERY PJ, 1977, RECENT ADV ANIMAL NU, P8 CASTLE ME, 1984, GRASS FORAGE SCI, V39, P287 CHOU KC, 1964, J AGR SCI, V62, P15 CONE JW, 1991, J SCI FOOD AGR, V54, P23 DEBOEVER JL, 1983, REV AGR-BRUSSELS, V36, P403 DEBRABANDER DL, 1982, REV AGR-BRUSSELS, V35, P3269 DULPHY JP, 1981, INRA PUBL, P81 GLADSTONES JS, 1970, FIELD CROPS ABSTRACT, V23, P123 GOERING HK, 1970, USDA HDB, V379 HVELPLUND T, 1990, STUDY QUANTITATIVE N, P214 MACLEOD JA, 1987, LUPINS POTENTIAL CRO MAKONI NF, 1991, CAN J ANIM SCI, V71, P245 MCQUEEN RE, 1981, LABORATORY EVALUATIO, P87 MERTENS DR, 1989, 1989 P PAC NW NUTR C, P1 ORSKOV ER, 1969, ANIM PROD, V11, P187 ORSKOV ER, 1979, J AGR SCI, V92, P499 PAINE CA, 1982, OCCASIONAL PUBLICATI, V6, P177 PUTNAM DH, 1991, PRODUCTION FACTORS W, P6 ROSS GJS, 1987, MLP MAXIMUM LIKELIHO SARIC O, 1981, 16 P INT GRASSL C, P204 SHELDRICK RD, 1980, GRASS FORAGE SCI, V35, P323 SPICER LA, 1986, J ANIM SCI, V62, P521 THOMAS C, 1988, BRIT GRASSLANDS SOC, V22, P115 THOMAS PC, 1982, FORAGE PROTEIN CONSE, P121 TISSERAND JL, 1982, 2ND P INT LUP C VANSOEST PJ, 1967, J ASSOC OFF ANA CHEM, V50, P50 WILLIAMS W, 1986, 4TH P INT LUP C GER, P1; NR: 31; TC: 3; J9: ANIM FEED SCI TECH; PG: 11; GA: KP899Source type: Electronic(1

    100. 2nd Lieutenant J. Macleod, 1915

    No full text
    When news of the war broke out in Scotland it was greeted with enthusiasm and thousands of young men volunteered to take part in what they thought would be an adventure. Few of them realised at the time that enlistment was a dangerous undertaking—a quarter of them would not come back alive. The following is an extract of a letter written by J. Macleod, who was 2nd Lieutenant in the 3rd (Reserve) Battalion of the Queen’s Own Cameron Highlanders. Lyn Macdonald, Voices and Images of the Great Wa..

    The theory-practice gap: impact of professional-bureaucratic work conflict on newly-qualified nurses

    No full text
    Aim: This paper reports the findings from a naturalistic enquiry undertaken in the United Kingdom into the extent to which the ideals and values of the preregistration nursing course are adopted by individual newly educated Registered Nurses.Background: Research in several countries provides consistent evidence of the existence of a theory–practice gap in nursing. Clear disparities have been demonstrated between the best practice ideals and values that are taught and those actually encountered in everyday practice. Nurse education 'Project 2000' reforms in the United Kingdom were designed, in part, to address this issue. Few studies to date have examined the impact of these reforms on newly qualified Registered Nurses' ability to translate theory into practice.Methods: A longitudinal study was carried out in three educational institutions in the United Kingdom from 1997 to 2000. Final year nursing students (n = 72) in three colleges of nursing completed questionnaires to elicit views on their ideals and values for practice. In-depth interviews with a purposive subsample of 26 participants (at 4–6 and 11–15 months postqualification) indicated the extent to which these ideals and values were adopted in practice. Interviews were tape-recorded, transcribed, and data were analysed using constant comparison and negative case analysis.Findings: Although new nurses emerged from their programmes with a strong set of nursing values, a number of professional and organizational factors effectively sabotaged implementation. Professional sabotage includes obeying covert rules, lack of support and poor nursing role models. Organizational sabotage includes structural and organizational constraints such as time pressures, role constraints, staff shortages and work overload.Conclusion: The disparity between nursing as taught and as practised may have profound implications for the future of the profession both in the United Kingdom and internationally, in terms of morale, job satisfaction and retention. Measures to improve resources and reduce the professional–bureaucratic work conflict are discussed

    George MacLeod’s open-air preaching: performance and counter-performance

    No full text
    Stuart Blythe uses the methodology of performance to analyse George MacLeod’s open-air preaching. He points out that MacLeod’s preaching was derived from a theology of the incarnation, and an understanding of the paradoxes and dichotomies of common human life. This preaching, Blythe suggests, was also a counter-performance in the context of outlooks and ideologies inimical to the gospel. The paper raises interesting issues related to preaching as performance, and the further question as to whether or not the life and work of the Church as a whole might now be better understood as a counter-performance.Publisher PD
