Announcement of Summer Quarter June 1 to August 24, 1942 The University of Vermont is making every effort to give utmost service to the nation in training men both for the armed service and for the necessary similar activities. In common with most educational insti­ tutions, the University is operating an accelerated program which will enable the student who so desires, through attendance at two summer sessions, to complete four years of academic work in three calendar years. The accelerated program further gives most students an opportunity to complete work for the college degree prior to being called by the selective service. All engineering and pre-medical students will be expected to attend the Summer Quarter. Pre-medical students must attend if they wish to enter Medical College at the earliest possible date. This accelerated program, however, does not give opportunity for students who have failed a course or courses to make up their deficiency and such students will be obliged to have a longer period of preparation before the beginning of their medical work. Others may shorten the time required for graduation by one or two semesters by attending one or two summer quarters and planning their work carefully.

That responsibility includes ensuring ocean wildlife can safely swim Pacific Ocean waters without being killed in commercial fishing gear. We, the undersigned 24,494 residents of the United States (including 6,106 residents of California, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington), urge you to prevent the authorization of pelagic longline fishing gear off the U.S. Pacific Coast. Use of this gear would lead to the entanglement and death of sea turtles, dolphins, whales, sea birds, sharks and many other important ocean species. Pelagic longlines used to catch swordfish, which can reach 60 miles in length and trail thousands of baited hooks, will inevitably ensnare and drown many other unsuspecting marine animals. Such a U.S. West Coast-based pelagic longline fishery, whether deep-set or shallow-set, has no place among the diversity of ocean life of the Northeast Pacific, particularly species already endangered with extinction. Pacific leatherback sea turtles, for example, migrate 6,000 miles from their nesting beaches to feed in the productive waters off the U.S.

  • Resolving the Incommensurability of Eugenics & the Quantified Self
    Eugenics & the Quantified Self Resolving the Incommensurability of Eugenics & the Quantified Self Gabi Schaffzin The “quantified self,” a cultural phenomenon which emerged just before the 2010s, embodies one critical underlying tenet: self-tracking for the purpose of self-improvement through the identification of behavioral and environmental variables critical to one’s physical and psychological makeup. Of course, another project aimed at systematically improving persons through changes to the greater population is eugenics. Importantly, both cultural phenomena are built on the predictive power of correlation and regression—statistical technologies that classify and normalize. Still, a closer look at the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century eugenic projects and the early-twenty-first century proliferation of quantified self devices reveals an inherent incommensurability between the fundamental tenets underlying each movement. Eugenics, with its emphasis on hereditary physical and psychological traits, precludes the possibility that outside influences may lead to changes in an individual’s bodily or mental makeup. The quantified self, on the other hand, is predicated on the belief that, by tracking the variables associated with one’s activities or environment, one might be able to make adjustments to achieve physical or psychological health. By understanding how the technologies of the two movements work in the context of the predominant form of Foucauldian governmentality and biopower of their respective times, however, the incommensurability between these two movements might in fact be resolved. I'm Gabi Schaffzin from UC San Diego and I'm pursuing my PhD in Art History, Theory, and Criticism with an Art Practice concentration. My work focuses on the designed representation of measured pain in a medical, laboratory, and consumer context.

  • Intangible Asset Monetization the Promise and the Reality
    Working Paper #03 Intangible Asset Monetization The Promise and the Reality Kenan Patrick Jarboe Roland Furrow Athena Alliance April 2008 About Athena Alliance Athena Alliance is in the vanguard of identifying, understanding, analyzing, and educating on the information, intangibles, and innovation (I 3 or I-Cubed) economy. Information, knowledge, and other intangibles now power economic prosperity and wealth creation. Intangible assets—worker skills and know-how, informal relationships that feed creativity and new ideas, high-performance work organizations, formal intellectual property, brand names—are the new keys to competitive advantage. Intangibles and information drive our innovation process, a combination of formal research and informal creativity. These elements combine to produce productivity and improvement gains needed to maintain prosperity. While the economic rules have changed, public policy has not caught up. Governments are struggling with ways to utilize information, foster development of intangibles, and promote innovation and competitiveness in this new economy. Policymakers are grappling with the urgent need to frame policy questions in light of the changing economic situation. Issues of developing and utilizing information, managing intangibles, and fostering innovation underlie discussions on a variety of subjects, such as intellectual property rights, education and training policy, economic development, technology policy, and trade policy. Crafting new policies in these areas requires infusing a better understanding

    SELECTED DEATH NOTICES FROM JACKSON COUNTY, KANSAS, NEWSPAPERS VOLUME V 1900-1902 COMPILED BY DAN FENTON 2003 INTRODUCTION At the beginning of the time period covered by this volume, there were four newspapers being published in Holton, The Holton Weekly Recorder, The Holton Weekly Signal, The Tribune, and The Kansas Sunflower. The Soldier Clipper, and the Whiting Journal continued in their respective cities. In Circleville, the Circleville News ceased publication on November 8, 1900, and was soon replaced by the Jackson County World, which began publication on December 7, 1900. In Hoyt, the Hoyt Sentinel began publication on April 12, 1902. In Denison, the Denison Herald began publication on September 25, 1902. As noted in the previous volumes, not every death reported in these newspapers is included in this book, only those seeming to have some connection with Jackson county. A death notice could appear in different newspapers and from different sources within a.paper. One principal notice is listed with excerpts from other accounts being used only when there is differing or additional information. Accolades to the deceased success as a Christian, parent and citizen have been deleted when possible, because of space consideration. Three ellipses denote the deletion of part of a sentence and four that of a sentence or even paragraphs. Each death notice is numbered consecutively and it is this number that appears in the index, not the page number. This is an all surname index that I hope will help the researcher identify family relationships that otherwise would be hidden. The index begins on page 893.

  • Bushnell Family Genealogy, 1945
    BUSHNELL FAMILY GENEALOGY Ancestry and Posterity of FRANCIS BUSHNELL (1580 - 1646) of Horsham, England And Guilford, Connecticut Including Genealogical Notes of other Bushnell Families, whose connections with this branch of the family tree have not been determined. Compiled and written by George Eleazer Bushnell Nashville, Tennessee 1945 Bushnell Genealogy 1 The sudden and untimely death of the family historian, George Eleazer Bushnell, of Nashville, Tennessee, who devoted so many years to the completion of this work, necessitated a complete change in its publication plans and we were required to start anew without familiarity with his painstaking work and vast acquaintance amongst the members of the family. His manuscript, while well arranged, was not yet ready for printing. It has therefore been copied, recopied and edited, However, despite every effort, prepublication funds have not been secured to produce the kind of a book we desire and which Mr. Bushnell's painstaking work deserves. His material is too valuable to be lost in some library's manuscript collection. It is a faithful record of the Bushnell family, more complete than anyone could have anticipated. Time is running out and we have reluctantly decided to make the best use of available funds by producing the "book" by a process of photographic reproduction of the typewritten pages of the revised and edited manuscript. The only deviation from the original consists in slight rearrangement, minor corrections, additional indexing and numbering. We are proud to thus assist in the compiler's labor of love. We are most grateful to those prepublication subscribers listed below, whose faith and patience helped make George Eleazer Bushnell's book thus available to the Bushnell Family.

  • HUGHES Falv1ily of CAPE ~1A Y COUNTY, NEW JERSEY
    HUGHES FAlv1ILY OF CAPE ~1A Y COUNTY, NEW JERSEY 1650 - - 1950 A genealogy of the descendants of Humphrey Hughes of Long Island 1650 and later of Cape lvfay County, New Jersey HUGHES FAMILY Early genealogists have said that our family is of Welsh origin and about which there seems to be no doubt, indeed, the name of the progenitor of our family, Humphrey Hughes, very definitely designates Welsh origin. Welsh names derive from a son who would adopt his father's name as a last name and add "S" or "es". Thus Humphrey ap Hugh, as he was known in Wales, became Humphrey Hughes. William ap William became William Williams and thus we account for so many double names in persons of Welsh descent. The collecting of the genealogy of the Hughes Family has indeed been a pleasure. It has been carried on as an avocation covering about fifteen years. When I began the collection of this data, it was not with the thought of produc­ ing a genealogy, but just to satisfy my own desire to know more about our early ancestors in this country. It was such a very interesting hobby that I continued to search and collect until I found that I had accumulated valuable genealogical information which it is probable that no other person would ever put together and for the purpose of preserving this information for posterity, I am putting it in print. There are other Hughes families in New Jersey which have no connection with ours and I have not attempted to include them, but have confined my work to the direct descendants of our first ancestor, Humphrey Hughes.
