  • An Abstract of the Thesis Of
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Annie M. Chozinski for the degree of Master of Science in Horticulture presented on November 23. 1994. Title: The Evaluation of Cold Hardiness in Corvlus. Abstract approved: Shawn A. Mehlenbacher Anthesis of both staminate and pistillate flowers of Cory/us occurs in midwinter. To insure adequate pollination and nut set, these flowers must attain a sufficient hardiness level to withstand low temperatures. This study estimated cold hardiness of Cory/us cultivars and species using laboratory freezing of shoots without artificial hardening. In December, January and February of 1991-92 and 1992-93, one-year stems were collected 0 0 and frozen at regular intervals from -10 C to -38 C/ and visual browning assessed survival approximately 10 days after freezing. Elongated catkins were clipped prior to freezing. Percent flower bud survival was calculated and plotted against temperature. Linear regression generated an equation relating percent bud survival to temperature. From this equation, estimates of the LT^ (lethal temperature for 50% of the buds) was calculated for catkins, female inflorescences, and vegetative buds. C. avellana L. catkins, on average, were less hardy in both December and January than female inflorescences and vegetative buds. Maximum hardiness was reached in December and nearly all had elongated prior to the February freeze. Cultivars with the most hardy catkins were 'Morell', 'Brixnut', 'Creswell', 'Gem', 'Giresun OSU 54.080', 'Hall's Giant', 'Riccia di Talanico', 'Montebello' and 'Rode Zeller'. Maximum hardiness was observed for both vegetative and pistillate buds in January and was followed by a marked loss of hardiness in February.

  • Wer NIX Fragt, Bleibt Stumm!
    Kommunalwahl Wahlcheck 2020 WER NIX FRAGT, BLEIBT STUMM! Kreisjugendring Forchheim 2 Kommunalwahl Wahlcheck 2020 Die Landrats- und Bürgermeisterkandidat/-innen standen wieder im Mittelpunkt des „Wahlchecks zur Kommunalwahl 2020“, einer Aktion, die der Kreisjugend- ring Forchheim – vertreten durch den amtierenden Vorsitzenden Thomas Wil- fling – zusammen mit den Kommunalen Jugendpflegerinnen Ursula Albuschkat und Stefanie Schmitt initiiert hat. Die Kandidatinnen und Kandidaten wurden mit einem persönlichen Brief ein- geladen, an der Befragung teilzunehmen. Hierfür wurden unter Beteiligung von Kindern und Jugendlichen Fragen gesammelt, die diese den Lokalpolitiker/-in- nen stellen wollten. Ebenfalls beteiligt waren die Delegierten der KJR-Vollver- sammlung als Vertreter/-innen der Vereine und Verbände. Zusammengekommen sind eine Vielzahl von Fragen, die Kinder und Jugendliche sowie Vereins- und Verbandsvertreter unseres Landkreises aktuell beschäftigen. Gemeinsam mit den Gemeindejugendpfleger/-innen der Städte und Gemeinden Ebermannstadt, Eggolsheim, Gräfenberg, Weißenohe, Hausen, Heroldsbach und Hallerndorf wurden acht Fragen ausgewählt, die stellvertretend für die vielen jungen Menschen im Landkreis Forchheim gestellt werden sollen. Bis Donnerstag, den 27. Februar 2020 bestand die Möglichkeit, die ausgefüll- ten Fragebögen an den KJR zurückzusenden. Die Ergebnisse aller Fragebögen wurden ungefiltert – also auch ohne Korrekturen – abgedruckt und sind seit dem 02. März 2020 unter www.kjr-forchheim.de der interessierten Öffentlich- keit zugänglich. Im Nachgang der Kommunalwahl 2020 möchten der Kreisjugendring und die Kommunalen Jugendpflegerinnen mit den gewählten Bürgermeister/-innen ins Gespräch kommen. Hierzu sind Besuche vor Ort geplant, um gemeinsam das The- ma Kinder und Jugendliche sowie die Jugendarbeit vor Ort zu beleuchten. Der Kreisjugendring und die Kommunalen Jugendpflegerinnen bedanken sich für die Unterstützung und freuen sich auf interessante Gespräche mit den zukünfti- gen Bürgermeisterkandidat/-innen und Landrat.

  • About Pigs [PDF]
    May 2015 About Pigs Pigs are highly intelligent, social animals, displaying elaborate maternal, communicative, and affiliative behavior. Wild and feral pigs inhabit wide tracts of the southern and mid-western United States, where they thrive in a variety of habitats. They form matriarchal social groups, sleep in communal nests, and maintain close family bonds into adulthood. Science has helped shed light on the depths of the remarkable cognitive abilities of pigs, and fosters a greater appreciation for these often maligned and misunderstood animals. Background Pigs—also called swine or hogs—belong to the Suidae family1 and along with cattle, sheep, goats, camels, deer, giraffes, and hippopotamuses, are part of the order Artiodactyla, or even-toed ungulates.2 Domesticated pigs are descendants of the wild boar (Sus scrofa),3,4 which originally ranged through North Africa, Asia and Europe.5 Pigs were first domesticated approximately 9,000 years ago.6 The wild boar became extinct in Britain in the 17th century as a result of hunting and habitat destruction, but they have since been reintroduced.7,8 Feral pigs (domesticated animals who have returned to a wild state) are now found worldwide in temperate and tropical regions such as Australia, New Zealand, and Indonesia and on island nations, 9 such as Hawaii.10 True wild pigs are not native to the New World.11 When Christopher Columbus landed in Cuba in 1493, he brought the first domestic pigs—pigs who subsequently spread throughout the Spanish West Indies (Caribbean).12 In 1539, Spanish explorers brought pigs to the mainland when they settled in Florida.
