  • Sicily's Ancient Landscapes & Timeless Traditions 2021
    YOUR O.A.T. ADVENTURE TRAVEL PLANNING GUIDE® Sicily’s Ancient Landscapes & Timeless Traditions 2021 Small Groups: 8-16 travelers—guaranteed! (average of 13) Overseas Adventure Travel ® The Leader in Personalized Small Group Adventures on the Road Less Traveled 1 Dear Traveler, At last, the world is opening up again for curious travel lovers like you and me. And the O.A.T. Sicily’s Ancient Landscapes & Timeless Traditions itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: Who doesn’t love to eat in Italy? But Sicilian food, which is heavily influenced by the Arabs who thrived here, is in a league of its own. Sample the local flavors when you visit the Tunisian-inflected town of Mazara del Vallo and share a traditional Sicilian lunch with a local family. As you savor the home-cooked fare, you’ll learn how the city’s identity continues to evolve, and the vital role of the local fishing industry. You’ll also visit a home of a very different sort, one that traveler Carol Bowman described as “a house full of hope.” It’s Casa di Maria, an organization (and Grand Circle Foundation partner) established by a family in Catania to provide a loving home for children who are refugees or victims of neglect and domestic violence. The daughter-in-law of the founders (Sergio and Carmela) will enlighten you about Sicily’s foster care system. And you’ll meet more of the Casa’s extended family, including a young Nigerian woman who literally showed up on Sicily’s shores with nothing and grew up here, and hear her harrowing—but ultimately inspiring—story.

  • Potential Distribution of the Invasive Old World Climbing Fern, Lygodium Microphyllum in North and South America
    1 Running title: Potential distribution of invasive fern Potential distribution of the invasive Old World climbing fern, Lygodium microphyllum in North and South America John A. Goolsby, United States Dept. of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Australian Biological Control Laboratory, CSIRO Long Pocket Laboratories, 120 Meiers Rd. Indooroopilly, Queensland, Australia 4068 email: [email protected] 2100 words 2 Abstract: The climate matching program CLIMEX is used to predict the potential distribution of the fern, Lygodium microphyllum in North and South America, with particular reference to Florida, USA where it is invasive. A predictive model was fitted to express the known distribution of the fern. Several new collection locations were incorporated into the model based on surveys for the plant near its ecoclimatic limits in China and Australia. The model predicts that the climate is suitable for further expansion of L. microphyllum north into central Florida. Large parts of the Caribbean, Central and South America are also at risk. Index terms: Invasive species, weeds, Florida Everglades, predictive modeling, CLIMEX. INTRODUCTION Lygodium microphyllum (Cav.) R. Br. (Lygodiaceae, Pteridophyta), the Old World climbing fern, is native to the Old World wet tropics and subtropics of Africa, Asia, Australia, and Oceania (Pemberton 1998). It is an aggressive invasive weed in southern Florida, USA (Pemberton and Ferriter 1998) and is classified as a Category I invasive species by the Florida Exotic Plant Pest Council (Langeland and Craddock Burks 1998). It was first found to be naturalized in Florida 1965; however, its rapid spread is now a serious concern because of its dominance over native vegetation.

  • ACTIVITY 20.1 Trading in the Old World–New World Market
    THE COLUMBIAN EXCHANGE LESSON 20 ACTIVITY 20.1 Trading in the Old World–New World Market INTRODUCTION Voluntary trade usually makes both buyers and sellers better off. But trade is based on the benefi ts buyers and sellers expect to receive. Occasionally, people regret trades that they have made because their expectations were not realized. For example, people use the word “lemon” to describe an automobile that needs frequent repairs and does not perform as well as the buyer thought it would. If a buyer knew an automobile was a “lemon” she or he would not buy it, but people sometimes make trades with incomplete information. This is why voluntary exchange is defi ned as trading goods and services with other people because both parties expect to benefi t from the trade. This activity will teach students that some trades make people better off while other trades make people worse off because they have incomplete information. In this activity, students trade New World food cards and Old World food cards. Each of the New World food cards has a number in the lower the right-hand corner (1 though 16). The main ingredients of New World foods were available only in the New World, or Western Hemisphere, prior to the Columbian Exchange. Each of the Old World food cards has a letter (A through P) in the lower right-hand corner. The primary ingredients of Old World foods were available only in the Old World, or Eastern Hemisphere, prior to the Columbian Exchange. Recipes for some foods (for example, baby-back ribs and eggplant parmesan) have multiple ingredients, some of which may have originated in the New World or the Old World.

  • Pest Alert: Old World Bollworm (Helicoverpa Armigera)
    United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Pest Alert Plant Protection and Quarantine Old World Bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) The Old World bollworm can feed on crops, such as corn, cotton, small grains, soybeans, peppers, and tomatoes. Damage occurs when the larvae bore into the host’s flowers and fruit and feed within the plant; the larvae may also feed on the leaves of host plants. This invasive pest can be found both in field and greenhouse settings. Distribution and Spread Old World bollworm is found in many areas of Africa, Asia, Europe, Australia, and the islands of the Western Pacific Region. It has also Old World bollworm adult (Julieta Brambila, USDA APHIS PPQ, Bugwood.org) been reported in Brazil and may be present in other South and Central American countries. Old World bollworm was found on a single farm in Puerto Rico in September 2014. This was the first time the pest has been detected in the United States.

  • Old World Bluestem Pasture Management Strategies for Panhandle and South Plains1
    Old World Bluestem Pasture Management Strategies for Panhandle and South Plains1 F.T. McCollum III, PAS-ACAN Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service Texas A&M AgriLife Research and Extension Center Amarillo Origins and Varieties of Old World Bluestem Old World bluestems were introduced to the United States early in the 20th century. These introductions originated from eastern Europe and Asia - primarily Russia, Pakistan, India, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Turkey. Over 800 accessions are in a collection at the USDA-ARS Southern Plains Range Research Station in Woodward, OK. A number of these have been studied by the USDA-ARS at Woodward, Noble Foundation at Ardmore, OK, NRCS Plant Materials Centers, Oklahoma State University, Texas A&M University, and Texas Tech University. The following varieties are adapted to the Southern Plains region: Caucasian bluestem (Bothriochloa caucasica) - the first Old World bluestem used widely in the USA. A winter hardy variety that is adapted to a wide variety of soils as long as they are not calcareous or prone to erosion. In years with normal or above average rainfall, Caucasian is consistently the best forage producer among released varieties. Plains bluestem (Bothriochloa ischaemum) - a blend of 30 strains from six countries. The blend was intended to increase the probability of success in a variety of climatic and soil-site conditions and exposure to insect and disease pests. The better adapted strains will out compete the less adapted strains. So, the eventual composition of the stands can vary depending on the location and stressors at the site. This was possibly the most widely planted of the Old World bluestem releases.

  • Fierce Species: Biological Imperialism
    4 Fierce species: Biological imperialism The concepts of biological or ecological imperialism and biological exchanges highlight the role of biological invaders in environmental change. The European conquest of the Americas, for example, was as much a product of the (uninten- tional) introduction of Old World biological species as of military might. Biolog- ical invaders from the Old World, including smallpox germs, sheep, cattle, horses and a host of plants, accompanied European conquerors, decimating New World indigenous human, animal and plant populations, destroying the local natural environment, and transforming the Americas into a Neo-Europe.1 As part of the Old World, Africa has long been regarded as immune from biological imperialism from Europe. In addition, Africa was seen—implicitly or explicitly—as being complicit in the Old World’s biological imperialism in the New World because several of the invading species were carried on the ships that brought African slaves to the New World—for example, malaria, yellow fever and trypanosomiasis.2 Not only was Africa considered immune to European biological imperialism, but tropical Africa’s own particular disease environment 1 Crosby, The Columbian Exchange and Ecological Imperialism. 2 Kiple, The Caribbean Slave. chapter was portrayed as a formidable obstacle to European intrusions, as illustrated by its reputation as the ‘White Man’s Grave’. A range of diseases, including malaria, sleeping sickness, schistosomiasis, bilharzia and river blindness, mired European military, political, economic and ecological conquest.3 Various Eurasian and American species introduced in Africa, however, behaved much like invasive species. Like smallpox in the Americas, bovine pleuronomia (lungsickness or cattle TB) and rinderpest (cattle plague), spread like wildfire when they were introduced in the second half of the nineteenth century, deci- mating domestic cattle and other susceptible domestic and wild animal species in Africa.
