    Test of whether a period of wakeful rest facilitates priming. All participants took part in all conditions. Word lists studied, then period of either relaxation (wakeful rest) or visuo-spatial task (control), then two priming tasks (stem completion and word identification task). Following week participants followed same protocol, but with wakeful rest or control condition, depending on what they had completed previous week. Counterbalancing of word list studied, order of conditions

    E. Montgomery Riley letter to George B. Christian, January 1, 1920

    No full text
    In this letter dated January 1, 1920, E. Montgomery Riley of Kansas City writes to George B. Christian, Senator Warren G. Harding's personal secretary. Riley asks that Christian put together a list of Harding's most important accomplishments in his early life, as well as his time as senator and lieutenant governor, for inclusion in an upcoming presentation for local Republican clubs. This letter is part of the Warren G. Harding Papers (MSS 345). This collection includes correspondence, business records, and other materials documenting Harding’s business career as owner and editor-in-chief of The Daily Marion Star, as well as the various stages of his political career. A significant portion of the collection, and what’s available on Ohio Memory, highlights his 1920 presidential campaign, spanning just before publicly announcing his candidacy to handily defeating Ohio Governor James M. Cox in the election. Correspondents include both Ohio and national businessmen, political figures, and ordinary citizens writing with questions, support, congratulatory notes, and campaign advice. Some of the most interesting insights into the tumultuous political climate in the U.S., the extreme factionalism within the Republican Party in Ohio, and Harding’s campaign strategies are described in letters between Harding and his campaign manager, Harry M. Daugherty. Some of the topics addressed include women’s suffrage, Prohibition, the League of Nations, African American representation and issues, and lingering peace negotiations following World War I

    In this letter dated March 26, 1920, E. Montgomery Riley writes to George B. Christian, Senator Warren G. Harding's personal secretary, thanking him for some photographs of Harding that he used in some promotional materials. Riley believes that Harding will win the Republican presidential nomination, and is seriously considering the senator's campaigns in Ohio and Indiana, as winning these states is essential for his victory. This letter is part of the Warren G. Harding Papers (MSS 345).

Body length 4.8–6.4 mm (avg. = 5.55, n = 12), greatest width more-or-less at midlength of body 3.6–4.56 mm (avg. = 4.15, n = 11). <b>Color (non-teneral, non-reared specimens).</b> Dorsum yellowish-brown; pronotum with pair of small, round, black spots near center of disc, variable in size, rarely irregular in shape; elytral disc with faint dark smudge on largest swelling on second interval; explanate margins of pronotum and elytra with small semi-transparent cells. Venter brownish-yellow, except metasternum on each</p> <p>side usually with large brownish smudge faded toward margins. Terminal three or rarely terminal two antennomeres dark brown to black; legs pale.</p> <p> <b>Form. Head.</b> Clypeus flat with faint medial impression and lateral grooves, surface shagreened, base ill-defined laterally and at basal corners (Fig. 2). Dorsum of cranium with longitudinally elongated fusiform pars stridens at base in male (Fig. 3, 4), absent in female; round binding patch present, positioned centrally in both sexes, anterior to pars stridens of male (Fig. 3, 5). Eyes moderately large, not especially bulging, length of genal space subequal to maximum width of antennal scape. Antenna moderate in length, exceeding lateral pronotal margin by terminal two antennomeres; pedicle (antennomere II) shorter than III, nearly as wide as scape; first two flagellar segments (antennomeres II–IV) slightly longer and narrower than last two flagellar segments (antennomeres V–VI); terminal antennomeres commencing with antennomere VII, formed into a weak antennal club (Fig. 14). <b>Pronotum.</b> Wider than long (avg. W/L ratio1.66, n = 12); anterior margin and lateral margins broadly and evenly rounded; posterior margin shallowly emarginate on each side before short, median truncate lobe. Surface impunctate, shining to finely shagreened; disc transverse, with broad anterolateral lobe on each side; margin with evenly distributed, closely spaced, semi-transparent cells; extreme margin with no apparent marginal bead. <b>Elytra.</b> Subparallel, broadly, evenly rounded distally. Each elytron with basal margin finely crenulate from near scutellum to beyond humeral umbo (Fig. 6), humeral umbo prominent; disc punctate striate, with 10 more-or-less well developed striae, slightly irregular over central portion of disc; punctures of striae large and deep, separated on average by spaces roughly equal to their diameters; punctures of outermost stria larger and transverse; sutural interval and interval II slightly elevated, other intervals slightly expanded and elevated at various points, especially near dorsal crest where a weakly raised transverse elevation partially disrupts regularity of striae I and II. Explanate margin broad, moderately deflexed anteriorly, horizontal and extended shelf-like at apex, with semi-transparent cells as in pronotal margin; surface impunctate, uneven, shiny; anterolateral corner right-angled, blunt; extreme marginal bead well-developed, strong to apex; internal ridge of epipleuron meets suture before elytral apex. <b>Venter.</b> Prosternum with apex moderately expanded post-coxae, apex bluntly rounded; surface weakly impressed, irregular; metasternum and abdominal ventrites smooth, shining. <b>Legs.</b> Tarsomere IV mostly embedded in lobes of tarsomere III (Fig. 15). Claws divergent, each claw simple, ventral basal angle of claw rounded (Fig. 21: BA). Pectens of meso- and metatarsal claws symmetrical <i>sensu</i> Riley (1986) (Fig. 13, 21: PE). <b>Genitalia.</b> Male genitalia in en-face view spatulate with subtruncate tip (Fig. 16), shaft of median lobe evenly weakly bowed in lateral view (Fig. 17); endophallus not studied. Female sternite VIII (internal) with sclerotized portion cross-shaped, lateral arms narrow; each side with broad membranous fenestra; distal margin transverse, with distinct fringe of long setae; basal stem short and broad (Fig. 19). Female genitalic tract with spermathecal duct frail, tightly coiled, long, composed of ca. 133–149 coils, avg. = 140 (n = 3) (Fig. 18); spermatheca simple, c-shaped, with terminal appendix (Fig. 20: AP).</p> <p> <b>Comparative remarks.</b> The new species is separated from <i>P</i>. <i>callosa</i> and <i>P</i>. <i>rugosa</i> by obvious differences in body coloration and shape. These two species are much more strongly arched in profile and the elytral discs sport a mix of distinctly elevated large and small tubercles. Also, the elytral discs of these two species are dark, with that color extended anteriorly and posteriorly onto the semi-transparent explanate margins and reaching the extreme elytral edges. The new species is most similar to <i>P</i>. <i>sublaevis</i> which is uniformly yellowish-brown above but lacks the pair of black spots on the pronotal disc, dark smudges on the elytral disc and dark smudges on the sides of the metasternum. The elytral punctation of <i>P</i>. <i>sublaevis</i> is more crowded than in the new species, and it is also smaller in body size, ranging in length from 4.72 to 5.6 mm (avg. 5.13 mm, n = 16).</p> <p>Some of the reared specimens possess a greater amount of darkening of the raised elytral areas, this often extended over most of the disc. This more extensive darkening is thought to be in some way related to the rearing environment, as this color variation is not seen in any of the wild-caught adult specimens.</p> <p> <b>Etymology.</b> This species is named for its association with sandy habitats, its name derived from <i>arena,</i> Latin for sand. Gender feminine.</p> <p> <b>Range.</b> North-central United States (Map 1). One additional specimen (non-paratype) is known through examination of a website photo. This specimen is misidentified as <i>Deloyala guttata</i> (Olivier) in the photo gallery of insect specimens collected from Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve near East Bethel, Minnesota (Haarstad 2002). This locality is plotted on Map 1 along with localities from the specimens examined.</p> <p> <b>Biological remarks.</b> Andrew H. Williams (<i>in litt</i>. to EGR) describes the known Wisconsin localities as “sand prairies.” The Cedar Creek Minnesota locality includes sand prairie, savanna and other habitat types (Haarstad 2002). The Nebraska and South Dakota localities are part of the Sandhill Region of these states, the largest sand dune system in North America consisting mostly of dunes stabilized by the sandhills mixed-grass prairie type (Bleed and Flowerday 1990; Joern and Keeler 1995). All specimens collected by the writer were taken in this region at localities of deep sand and were associated with <i>Physalis</i> (Solanaceae), either by rearing larvae to adults or by collecting adults from this plant. Associated <i>Physalis</i> specimens were later identified as <i>P</i>. <i>hispidus</i> (Waterf.) Cronquist. One of the Wisconsin specimens was observed feeding on a leaf of <i>Physalis heterophylla</i> (A. H. Williams label data). The examined Minnesota specimen is labeled as having been taken by sweeping mesic prairie. Living adults are non-metallic. Larvae are unremarkable in general appearance, being pale greenish in life, with semi-transparent lateral scoli.</p>Published as part of <i>Riley, Edward G., 2020, A new species of Parorectis Spaeth from the north-central United States, with notes on prothoracic and head morphology of the genus (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cassidinae: Cassidini), pp. 1-9 in Insecta Mundi 2020 (808)</i> on pages 3-7, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/4565396">10.5281/zenodo.4565396</a&gt
