COMMENTS ON TWO NAMES IN AN EARLY UTAH FLORA James L. Reveal' Abstract.— Two new varieties described by Durand in 1859 from the Great Salt Lake area of northern Utah are discussed. One. Erysimum asperum var. purshii. is the oldest available name for the western United States variant of the species, while the second name, Acerates decurnbens var. erecta, is a synonym of Asclepias asperula. Neither name has been included in botanical reference works nor in monographic studies. One new combination, Erysimum, asperum var. amoenum, is proposed for the orange-flowered phase of the species found in southern Colorado and Utah. In 1859, Elias Durand of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia published an article entitled "A sketch of the botany of the basin of the Great Salt Lake of Utah," in which he summarized the flora based on collections made by John C.

SHORT Read before The Filson Club, June 7, 1943 Dr. Charles Wilkins Short, eminent Kentucky botanist, phy- sician, and teacher, the third son of Peyton and Mary (Maria) Symmes Short, was born at "Greenfield," Woedford County, Kentucky, October 6, 1794. "Greenfield," just south of Ver- sailles, was the pioneer residence of his parents. It contained several iJaousand acres of gently rolling, fertile, inner Blue Grass land on the North Fork of Clear Creek.' The pattern which carried Charles Wilkins Short to distinc- tion and carved his name upon the tablets of time is easily traceable to several fundamental factors: his inheritance, the time in which he lived, the place, and the influence of prominent relatives.. His inheritance was that of Colonial leaders: soldiers, states- men, colonizers, adventurers, merchants, and well-to-do plant- 132 The Filson Club History Quarterly [Vol. 19 ers. Through his veins surged the blood of the Shorts, the Skipwiths, and the Symmes. Peyton Short, the father of Charles, was the son of a well-to-do Virginia planter, William Sh,ort, and his wife, Elizabeth Skipwith, daughter of Sir Wil- liam Skipwith, Baronet; Peyton was the brother of William Short of Virginia and Philadelphia.2 Both Peyton and William enjoyed the free-lance life which was the custom of sons of early Virginia planters, and each received an education equal to the best of the time; William graduated from the College of William and Mary in 1779, and Peyton one year later.

  • Biblioqraphy & Natural History
    BIBLIOQRAPHY & NATURAL HISTORY Essays presented at a Conference convened in June 1964 by Thomas R. Buckman Lawrence, Kansas 1966 University of Kansas Libraries University of Kansas Publications Library Series, 27 Copyright 1966 by the University of Kansas Libraries Library of Congress Catalog Card number: 66-64215 Printed in Lawrence, Kansas, U.S.A., by the University of Kansas Printing Service. Introduction The purpose of this group of essays and formal papers is to focus attention on some aspects of bibliography in the service of natural history, and possibly to stimulate further studies which may be of mutual usefulness to biologists and historians of science, and also to librarians and museum curators. Bibli• ography is interpreted rather broadly to include botanical illustration. Further, the intent and style of the contributions reflects the occasion—a meeting of bookmen, scientists and scholars assembled not only to discuss specific examples of the uses of books and manuscripts in the natural sciences, but also to consider some other related matters in a spirit of wit and congeniality. Thus we hope in this volume, as in the conference itself, both to inform and to please. When Edwin Wolf, 2nd, Librarian of the Library Company of Phila• delphia, and then Chairman of the Rare Books Section of the Association of College and Research Libraries, asked me to plan the Section's program for its session in Lawrence, June 25-27, 1964, we agreed immediately on a theme. With few exceptions, we noted, the bibliography of natural history has received little attention in this country, and yet it is indispensable to many biologists and to historians of the natural sciences.

  • The History of Radio in Emanuel County Part I – WJAT Radio, 1950 Thru 1975, Also the Entertainment Activities of the Nancy Auditorium by Rick Paul
    The History of Radio in Emanuel County Part I – WJAT Radio, 1950 thru 1975, Also the entertainment activities of the Nancy Auditorium By Rick Paul Swainsboro, Georgia has a rather unique radio history. From its humble beginnings, we were dazzled and entertained by events that only a short time earlier would have seemed unimaginable. The history of WJAT radio, while interesting enough, really cannot be told completely without including the entertainment activities of the Nancy Auditorium. What a thrill it must have been as citizens witnessed our sleepy little town transform from an obscure logging and farming hamlet into one of the five most significant country music venues in the country. Even more exciting, and maybe a little scary for some, when you consider that country music was still new and rock and roll unheard of. Truly amazing! I began collecting information for this piece in the 60s while hanging around the radio station as a typical teenager, fascinated by juicy stories being told about the radio station and its people. Later, after actually becoming an employee and hearing even spicier pieces of station lore, it dawned on me that someone should write this stuff down. Well, here we are all these years later, and alas, not much has been written about WJAT Radio or the events at the Nancy Auditorium. Recently, I felt the time had finally come to put down on paper some of the things I had learned over the years. And so I began, intent on covering all aspects of our radio/entertainment history. I wanted to really dig in, separate fact from fiction, inform the unaware, bring about a greater appreciation for a bygone era and maybe even learn some new facts along the way.

Shorter than most television episodes and distributed on online platforms like YouTube, web series both draw on and deviate from traditional TV storytelling strategies. In this thesis, I compare the production and storytelling strategies of "derivative" web series based on broadcast television shows with "original" web series created for the Internet, focusing on the evolution of scripted entertainment content online.

Or, they talk their way to fast, as though speed itself were a destination. On the September 18, 2005, episode of the animated Fox series Family Guy—less series than textual machine spitting out parodic encounters with other pieces of television—a somber male voice- over announces, “We now return to Gilmore Girls” (which aired on the WB/CW network during 2000–2007) as we cut from recurring characters Lois and Brian sitting on the sofa watching television to the embedded diegetic set. There, two animated brunettes who look strikingly like one another sit on a sofa themselves, presumably in front of another television, mise en abyme. The dialogue whizzes by, attribution barely possible to one body or the other; the whole thing takes less than thirty seconds: “Mom, I need to talk to you about Dean.” “Which Dean? Howard Dean, James Dean, or Jimmy Dean?” “Too old, too dead, and too fattening.” “You don’t have to tell that to my thighs.” “Can you ask your thighs if they borrowed my Gap capris?” “They did not and they’re insulted that you’d ask such a thing.” “As insulted as Kitty Kelley when people accuse her of taking liberties with her best-selling tell-alls?” “Almost.
