    SACRED SPACES AND OBJECTS: THE VISUAL, MATERIAL, AND TANGIBLE George Pati BRAUER MUSEUM OF ART | APRIL 13 — MAY 8, 2016 WE AT THE BRAUER MUSEUM are grateful for the opportunity to present this exhibition curated by George Pati, Ph.D., Surjit S. Patheja Chair in World Religions and Ethics and Valparaiso University associate professor of theology and international studies. Through this exhibition, Professor Pati shares the fruits of his research conducted during his recent sabbatical and in addition provides valuable insights into sacred objects, sites, and practices in India. Professor Pati’s photographs document specific places but also reflect a creative eye at work; as an artist, his documents are also celebrations of the particular spaces that inspire him and capture his imagination. Accompanying the images in the exhibition are beautiful textiles and objects of metalware that transform the gallery into its own sacred space, with respectful and reverent viewing becoming its own ritual that could lead to a fuller understanding of the concepts Pati brings to our attention. Professor Pati and the Brauer staff wish to thank the Surjit S. Patheja Chair in World Religions and Ethics and the Partners for the Brauer Museum of Art for support of this exhibition. In addition, we wish to thank Gretchen Buggeln and David Morgan for the insights and perspectives they provide in their responses to Pati's essay and photographs.

Hoagland Forrest Johnson (deceased) Oklahoma Biological Survey Oklahoma Biological Survey and Department of Geography University of Oklahoma University of Oklahoma Norman, OK 73019 Norman, OK 73019 e-mail: [email protected] This article reports the results of a vascular plant inventory of the Chouteau Wildlife Management Area in eastern Oklahoma. One hundred eighty-one species of vascular plants were collected from 144 genera and 63 families. The families with the greatest number of species were the Asteraceae (25), Poaceae (22), and Fabaceae (18). Fifty-seven species were annuals, four biennials, and 120 were perennials. Thirty-nine woody plant species were present. Twenty-one species exotic to North America were collected representing 11.6% of the flora. Azolla caroliniana was the only species tracked by the Oklahoma Natural Heritage Inventory found. This study reports 148 species previously not documented in Wagoner County. INTRODUCTION from 35.86o N to 35.85o N and longitudinal The objectives of this study were extent from 95.34o W to 95.37o W. The twofold: to fill a gap in floristic data for CHWMA is located within the subtropical eastern Oklahoma and provide resource humid (Cf) climate zone (Trewartha 1968). managers at the Chouteau Wildlife Summers are warm (mean July temperature Management Area (CHWMA) with a = 27.7o C) and humid, whereas winters are comprehensive species list.

    Public Information Summary Milk Mantra Host Country India Name of Borrower Milk Mantra Dairy Private Limited (the “Borrower”) Project Description Expansion of a dairy processing company operating in East India (the “Project”). Proposed DFC Loan $10,000,000 All-Source Funding Total $19,280,000 Policy Review U.S. Economic Impact No Analysis Required. Developmental Objectives This Project is expected to have a highly developmental impact through supporting the expansion of operations and facilities of a growing milk processor in India. India is the largest milk producer and consumer in the world. The production of milk is largely undertaken by smallholder farmers many of whom are women. The Project is expected to have significant developmental impacts through its inclusive and innovative business plan, which sources milk primarily from over 60000 low- income smallholder farmers in underdeveloped rural areas of India. Major challenges affecting the smallholder-farmer milk production include low genetic potential of Indian bovines, lack of nutritious and balanced feed composition, and inadequate veterinary services. The Project aims to overcome these challenges by supporting smallholder farmers with a technical assistance facility offering field extension agents, animal husbandry trainings, and a digital financial inclusion campaign. Environment and Social ENV Assessment: Assessment SCREENING: The Project has been reviewed against DFC’s categorical prohibitions and has been determined to be categorically eligible.

  • Evaluation of Sacred Lotus (Nelumbo Nucifera Gaertn.) As an Alternative Crop for Phyto-Remediation by Warner Steve Orozco Oband
    Evaluation of Sacred Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn.) as an Alternative Crop for Phyto-remediation by Warner Steve Orozco Obando A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama May 6, 2012 Keywords: Aquaponics, Heavy Metals, Constructed Wetlands, CWs Copyright 2012 by Warner Orozco Obando Approved by Kenneth M. Tilt, Chair, Professor of Horticulture Floyd M. Woods, Co-chair, Associate Professor of Horticulture Fenny Dane, Professor of Horticulture J. Raymond Kessler, Professor of Horticulture Jeff L. Sibley, Professor of Horticulture Wheeler G. Foshee III, Associate Professor of Horticulture Abstract Lotus, Nelumbo nucifera, offers a wide diversity of uses as ornamental, edible and medicinal plant. An opportunity for growing lotus as a crop in Alabama also has the potential for phyto-remediation. Lotus was evaluated for remediation of trace elements focusing on manganese (Mn), organic compounds targeting s-metolachlor and filtering aquaculture waste water. Lotus was evaluated for filtering trace elements by establishing a base line for tissue composition and evaluating lotus capacity to grow in solutions with high levels of Mn (0, 5, 10, 15, or 50 mg/L). Increasing Mn concentrations in solution induced a linear increase in lotus Mn leaf concentrations. Hyper-accumulation of Al and Fe was detected in the rhizomes, while Na hyper-accumulated in the petioles, all without visible signs of toxicity. Mn treatments applied to lotus affected chlorophyll content. For example, chlorophyll a content increased linearly over time while chlorophyll b decreased. Radical scavenging activity (DPPH) did not change over time but correlated with total phenols content, showing a linear decrease after 6 weeks of treatment.

  • American Lotus
    American Lotus Nelumbo lutea seagrant.psu.edu Species at a Glance The American lotus is an aquatic perennial plant with large round leaves, luminescent yellow flowers, and distinctive cone-shaped seed pods. The name American lotus means “sacred bean” after the seed pods, which today, are popular in dried floral arrangements. Historically, early Native Americans regarded the American lotus as a sacred plant with mystical powers, and used its large rhizomes for medicinal purposes. Unfortunately, this fast-growing species is also a strong colonizer that can quickly dominate and negatively impact a water body. Species Description The American lotus is an emergent, aquatic perennial with distinct leaves, flowers, and seed pods that make it easy to identify. The leaves are large, circular, and can be found either floating on the water’s surface, or elevated several Photo courtesy of inches above the water on long stiff stalks. The undersides Ron Thomas, of the leaves may be slightly hairy and the stem attaches Bioimages to the center of the leaf. While it may be confused with water lilies, the circular leaves of American lotus do not Photo courtesy of bendingtree, have slits in them. The flowers are large and luminescent inaturalist.org yellow growing up to 20cm (8 in) wide and containing many petals. The seed pods of American lotus are large, AMERICAN LOTUS cone-shaped, and contain many large brown seeds. Nelumbo lutea Native & Introduced Ranges While it’s considered native to eastern and central North America from Maine to Wisconsin and southward from Florida to Texas, the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources has listed the American lotus as a non-native and invasive species.
