    No full text
    Author Institution: Orion Museum, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio 43210Preparation and study of a crinoid specimen in the Orton Museum collection reveal for the first time the tegmen roof of Plaxocrinus mooresi (Whitfield). The roof is flat and composed of 14 small polygonal plates encircled by 10 large spines which project laterally and abut along their sides proximally. The tegmen roof comprises part of the crown of a young individual showing the dorsal cup, plates of the posterior interradius, and adjacent arms. A portion of the tegmen roof of a mature crinoid is also referred to Plaxocrinus mooresi. Both specimens were collected near the base of the Allegheny Group, of Pennsylvanian age, at Carbon Hill, Hocking County, Ohio

    The Cyclical Representation of the UK Conference Sector's Life Cycle: The Use of Refurbishments as Rejuvenation Triggers

    No full text
    The Tourism Area Life Cycle (TALC) model (Butler, 1980) is one of the most influential and frequently quoted tourism related lifecycle frameworks. Extensively applied and critiqued, it remains a cornerstone in tourism research. The model classifies the hypothetical temporal development of a destination into a series of stages, these being exploration, involvement, development, consolidation, stagnation and decline and/or rejuvenation, which when aggregated are represented diagrammatically as a S-shaped curve. This paper presents a theoretical extension of the TALC model, based on the decade in which UK conference venues initiated their conference product lifecycle, and the use of refurbishments as state changing triggers to rejuvenate the conference product lifecycle. This theoretical extension is applied to the four conference venue classifications that together constitute the UK conference sector, namely purpose-built venues, hotels, educational establishments and visitor attractions. Each of these venue types initiated its lifecycle at different times, with individual venues progressing through their lifecycle and either stagnating or rejuvenating through the use of refurbishment’s at differing times throughout the last 5 decades. Based on these findings, a linear model can be applied to the development of the UK conference sector. However, undertaking refurbishments, and thus the rejuvenation of the conference venues’ lifecycle, are occurring at differing times, and therefore this paper forwards the view that today a cyclical model is more appropriate to the UK conference sector

    Working from a translation practice perspective considering the publishing house as the primary institutional frame for translation events, this article examines author-publisher-translator communication at English-Canadian literary presses. Recent empirical research is contextualised through the political, cultural and economic factors conditioning practices at English-Canadian literary presses since 1960, and general questions about understanding author-publisher- translator communication are raised.Partant d’une perspective de pratique envisageant la maison d’édition comme site institutionnel principal des événements traductifs, cet article examine la communication entre auteurs/auteures, éditeurs/éditrices et traducteurs/traductrices au sein des presses canadiennes-anglaises. Des recherches empiriques récentes sont contextualisées par les facteurs politiques, culturels et économiques conditionnant les pratiques éditoriales canadiennes-anglaises depuis 1960. Une réflexion générale sur la communication entre auteurs/auteures, éditeurs/éditrices et traducteurs/traductrices est amorcée

    Tension and Taxation: Henry George and the Catholic Church

    No full text
    Individual Research Project Research in progress for HIST 1302: United States History II Faculty Mentor: Kyle Wilkison, Ph.D. This paper well represents the individually-selected research topics produced by a decade\u27s worth of Honors History 1302 students. The two-semester-long project typically begins with an annotated bibliography in History 1301, followed by a complete paper in History 1302. Each student chooses her or his own topic bounded only by the chronological scope of the course with a demonstrable connection to the people of the United States. The assignment urges students to select topics—no matter how broad or narrow—to which they feel a strong connection. Once a special area of interest is established, we work together to discover a research question to explore. Peter Whitfield\u27s paper demonstrates a particularly well-developed set of skills the course sought to strengthen. The author bases this story of an unlikely alliance between Gilded Age radical social reformer Henry George and New York City Catholic priest Father George McGlynn on thorough readings in a number of monographs, scholarly research articles, and primary sources. The reader finds herein clear narration and critical, incisive analysis that bodes well for this young scholar\u27s planned future graduate study of philosophy

    American Bards: James M. Whitfield, Eliza R. Snow, John Rollin Ridge, and Walt Whitman

    No full text
    Despite recent efforts to recover a diverse range of nineteenth-century American poets, the aura that continues to surround Walt Whitman as the quintessential American bard has yet to be sufficiently challenged. This dissertation defamiliarizes the Whitman mystique of the national outsider-<i>cum</i>-national bard-the author as "one of the roughs" who also claims to be a representative American poet-by reinterpreting <i>Leaves of Grass</i> through the careers of three poets on the margins of national culture whose projects for American poetry parallel the central aspects of Whitman's own. During the 1850s, African American separatist James M. Whitfield, Mormon pioneer Eliza R. Snow, and Anglo-Cherokee journalist John Rollin Ridge claimed to speak for the United States as American bards despite the fact that they were only tenuously connected to the nation which they claimed to represent. Two years before Whitman first attempted to poetically contain a contradictory nation in the first (1855) edition of <i>Leaves of Grass</i>, James M. Whitfield recorded the conflicts of a nation riven by the contradictions of slavery in <i>America and Other Poems</i> (1853). Similarly, at the same time that Whitman was announcing himself as the poet of a new American religion, Eliza R. Snow had already been recognized as the poet laureate of a faith that observers such as Leo Tolstoy referred to as "the American religion." While Whitman would be characterized as "the first white aboriginal" by D. H. Lawrence in the early twentieth century, in the 1850s John Rollin Ridge had already constructed a poetic persona that attempted to mediate the United States' nostalgia for an indigenous past with its faith in national progress. By claiming to speak as national representatives to a nation that rejected them, Whitfield, Snow, and Ridge not only provide alternatives to a Whitman-centered approach to antebellum American poetry, they also offer insight into the contested nature of national identity at a time when poets in the United States were anxious to define their nation both politically and artistically

    Letter from Art Ehlmann to Tim McCoy enclosing a copy of the Merrill article from the U. S. National Museum proceedings and his notes on the American Journal of Science by Merrill and Whitfield.July 22,1994 Dear Tim, Enclosed is the copy of the Merrill article from USM Procedings [Proceedings]. The other one from the American Journal of Science by Merrill and Whitfield is in the library on microcard so I can't send you a copy. I read it and took a few notes: specimen found 10 years ago (from date of this publication) found by the landowner named Raniosek who thought it unusual but didn't know what it was. he sold the land to Mr. Hensel but took the specimen along to his new place a mile away layed in the yard there for several years A school teacher named H. Hensold got the specimen and sold it to Ward and Howell of Rochester, NY Howell published a short note in Science naming it La Grange (name later found to be taken already) specimen is 146 Kg, measuring 58X46X28 cms. (the description is given in detail) contains what we now know to be shock veins. (When you come up, you can read this in the library) The guy to talk to at the Texas Museum is named Chris Durden. According to Busbey's source, this guy is in charge of the geologic collections including the meteorites. Busbey couldn't get his number but has the number of the Vertebrate Paleontology secretary at 512-471-6088; explain you are long distance and need Chris Durden. She should be able to transfer you. We are having guests from Chiapas, Mexico at our house next week. I'll probably be pretty much in and out during that time. You can find me at home usually during that time. Ar
