  • Superior Germ Plasm in Dairy Herds
    Superior Germ Plasm in Dairy Herds By R. R. Graves^ Principal Specialist in Dairy Cattle Breedings and M. H. Fohrman^ Senior Dairy Hushandman^^ Division of Dairy Cattle Breeding, Feedingj and Management^ Bureau of Dairy Industry WITH more than 26 million dairy cows spread over the entire United States, a survey of herds for superior germ plasm is a tremendous undertaking. How the survey which is the subject of this article was conducted among agricultural experiment stations and the owners of more than a thousand commercial herds is described in later pages. It is sufficient at this point to say that no similar project on so large a scale had previously been attempted in this country. Hitherto the genetic study of dairy cattle has been restricted for the most part to analysis of the hereditary make-up of the individual sire or dam. Some attempts have been made in studies in the Bureau of Dairy Industry, and more recently by the Holstein-Friesian Association, to show the inheritance for production being built in some herds through the use of a number of sires. To analyze all the sires used in herds during the entire period of record keeping, however, and to show the female lines of descent and their relationship to the various sires in a large number of herds, is pioneer work in the field of animal breeding. In the present state of genetic knowledge relating to livestock, many might call it premature to attempt a survey of progress in breeding superior germ plasm in dairy-cattle herds in which records of production have been kept over a period of years.

  • Update: America's
    maxon motor Australia Pty Ltd Unit 1, 12 -14 Beaumont Rd. Mount Kuring -Gai NSW 2080 Tel. +61 2 9457 7477 [email protected] www.maxongroup.net.au October 02, 2019 The much -anticipated launch of the first two AC75 foiling monohull yachts from the Defender Emir- ates Team New Zealand and USA Challenger NYYC American Magic respectively did not disappoint the masses of America’s Cup fans waiting eagerly for their first gl impse of an AC75 ‘in the flesh’. Emirates Team New Zealand were the first to officially reveal their boat at an early morning naming cere- mony on September 6. Resplendent in the team’s familiar red, black and grey livery, the Kiwi AC75 was given the Maori nam e ‘Te Aihe’ (Dolphin). Meanwhile, the Americans somewhat broke with protocol by carrying out a series of un -announced test sails and were the first team to foil their AC75 on the water prior to a formal launch ceremony on Friday September 14 when their dark blue boat was given t he name ‘Defiant’. But it was not just the paint jobs that differentiated the first two boats of this 36th America’s Cup cycle – as it quickly became apparent that the New Zealand and American hull designs were also strikingly differ- ent.On first compar ison the two teams’ differing interpretations of the AC75 design rule are especially obvi- ous in the shape of the hull and the appendages. While the New Zealanders have opted for a bow section that is – for want of a better word – ‘pointy’, the Americans h ave gone a totally different route with a bulbous bow that some have described as ‘scow -like’ – although true scow bows are prohibited in the AC75 design rule.

  • Costs and Benefits of Hosting the 34Th America's
    LEGISLATIVE ANALYST REPORT: COSTS AND BENEFITS OF HOSTING THE 34TH AMERICA’S CUP IN SAN FRANCISCO EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The America’s Cup is the premier sailing event in the world. Hosting the 34th America’s Cup in San Francisco, an event reported to be the third largest in all of sports behind the Olympics and the World Cup, would make San Francisco one of only seven cities in the world to have hosted an America’s Cup. In addition to the prestige of such an event, hosting the America’s Cup would also bring significant economic benefits to the region. The Budget and Legislative Analyst wants to make it very clear that the disclosures made in this report, pertaining to the estimated costs and benefits to the City and County of San Francisco, are not for the purpose of determining whether the America’s Cup should be held in San Francisco. We clearly recognize the importance and prestige of hosting such an event in San Francisco. However, it is the responsibility of the Budget and Legislative Analyst to report the facts to the Board of Supervisors. On February 14, 2010, at the 33rd America’s Cup in Valencia, Spain, BMW Oracle, a sailing syndicate (or team) based out of the Golden Gate Yacht Club in San Francisco, defeated the defending syndicate to become the winner of the 33rd America’s Cup. Under the rules governing the America’s Cup, the winner of the America’s Cup is entitled to select the race format, date, and location of the next race.

    FY 15 ANNUAL REPORT August 1, 2014- July 31, 2015 1 THE PHILLIPS COLLECTION FY15 Annual Report THE PHILLIPS [IS] A MULTIDIMENSIONAL INSTITUTION THAT CRAVES COLOR, CONNECTEDNESS, A PIONEERING SPIRIT, AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCES 2 THE PHILLIPS COLLECTION FY15 Annual Report FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND DIRECTOR This is an incredibly exciting time to be involved with The Phillips Collection. Duncan Phillips had a deep understanding of the “joy-giving, life-enhancing influence” of art, and this connection between art and well-being has always been a driving force. Over the past year, we have continued to push boundaries and forge new paths with that sentiment in mind, from our art acquisitions to our engaging educational programming. Our colorful new visual identity—launched in fall 2014—grew out of the idea of the Phillips as a multidimensional institution, a museum that craves color, connectedness, a pioneering spirit, and personal experiences. Our programming continues to deepen personal conversations with works of art. Art and Wellness: Creative Aging, our collaboration with Iona Senior Services has continued to help participants engage personal memories through conversations and the creating of art. Similarly, our award-winning Contemplation Audio Tour encourages visitors to harness the restorative power of art by deepening their relationship with the art on view. With Duncan Phillips’s philosophies leading the way, we have significantly expanded the collection. The promised gift of 18 American sculptors’ drawings from Trustee Linda Lichtenberg Kaplan, along with the gift of 46 major works by contemporary German and Danish artists from Michael Werner, add significantly to new possibilities that further Phillips’s vision of vital “creative conversations” in our intimate galleries.

  • James Henry Flux 1868 – 1950
    James Henry Flux 1868 – 1950 James Henry Flux was born in Cowes on the 7th February 1868 to Jacob Flux and his wife Eliza nee Whitticom. The family were Wesleyan Methodists and he was baptised in the West Cowes chapel on 26th May. He was their third child, with older siblings Thomas and Eliza. Four more children came along, Emily, Ernest, Alfred and Lillian, although poor Lillian only lived to the age of three. Jacob’s job as a yacht rigger meant he was often away at sea and Eliza brought the family up in the centre of Cowes at Market Place. In 1881 13 year old James was an errand boy, but Cowes was the centre of sailing, and also had a healthy ship-building industry. After serving his apprenticeship as a shipwright James worked at the Royal Naval Works in Woolston, Southampton, and later with the West India Company. James was one of the earliest members of the Associated Shipwrights Society joining the Southampton branch in 1889. On returning to Cowes he joined Messrs J Samuel White and Company, who were renowned shipbuilders. James did not follow his parents into non-conformity. On 26th December 1887 James married Eliza Matthews, at 27, 8 years his senior, at St Mary’s Church in Cowes. He was living in Prospect Road. Their first child, Lillian Mabel was born the following June. The family moved around, in 1891 they were living in Fellows Road and their first son James Bernard was born. In 1893 when their final child, William Ernest was born, they were living in Tennyson Road.

  • Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan
    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.
