Cowie 4 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My work has benefited from financial support and contributions from several organizations. A Dissertation Research Award from the Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research provided primary funding for the project. Other support was provided by a Graduate College Fellowship (University of Arizona), the William Shirley Fulton Scholarship (Department of Anthropology, University of Arizona), the Emil W. Haury Educational Fund (Department of Anthropology, University of Arizona), and the Raymond H. Thompson Fellowship Endowment (Arizona State Museum). In addition, the Commonwealth Cultural Resources Group (CCRG) in Minocqua, Wisconsin, generously conducted part of the botanical analysis pro bono. Numerous individuals contributed to this project, and for their work I am very grateful. Susan Martin, Patrick Martin, and the Department of Social Sciences at Michigan Technological University provided access to the artifact collections and provided lab space for analysis. Many staff members at Michigan’s public archives were helpful in directing me to valuable resources, including those at Michigan Technological University Library (Houghton), Northern Michigan University Archives (Marquette), the Michigan Iron Industry Museum (Negaunee), the State Archives of Michigan (Lansing), Fayette Historic State Park History Office (Fayette), and the Delta County Historical Society (Garden). I am grateful to the staff of Fayette Historic State Park for providing me with research accommodations, and to the many historians, interns, and avocational historians over the years that have transcribed many of the available documents pertaining to Fayette. I am particularly grateful to Brenda Laakso (Fayette Historic State Park), Tom Friggens (Michigan Iron Industry Museum), John Halsey (Michigan State Archaeologist), and Patrick Martin (Michigan Technological University); all of them have researched Fayette for many years and have generously shared their time and scholarship with me. Thanks go to the many people who contributed to different aspects of this research. The initial archaeological fieldcrew in 1995 consisted of Larry Buhr, Erich Doser, Wendy Jones, Chris Savard, and Tim Tumberg, supervised by Patrick Martin and myself. Julie Bailey and Kevin O’Dell identified the faunal collection. Kathryn Egan- Bruhy and Jeanne Nelson of Commonwealth Cultural Resources Group (CCRG) conducted botanical analysis. Charles T. Faulker and C. Shane Mayes of the University of Tennessee conducted parasite analysis. Chris LeBlanc assisted extensively with artifact analysis, data entry, site photography, archival research, and technical support. He also contributed to GIS and geodatabase work, as did Jessica Munson, Phil Leckman, and John Chamblee. Jessica Munson generated most of the maps in this document, with assistance from Chris LeBlanc. Finally, I am most grateful for the support of my family, friends, colleagues, and dissertation committee members. My conversations with them provided numerous insights that much improved my work. In particular, I wish to thank my husband Chris LeBlanc, who devoted numerous hours to my research and provided endless support. Thank you. 5 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES.......................................................................................................... 8 LIST OF TABLES.......................................................................................................... 10 ABSTRACT..................................................................................................................... 11 CHAPTER 1.

P.O. Box 453 Cape May Point, NJ 08212 (609) 884-2842, fax 884-4569 [email protected] [email protected] Garden Peninsula Wind Energy Project, Delta County, MI Phase I Avian Risk Assessment Garden Peninsula Wind Energy Project Delta County, Michigan Executive Summary Heritage Sustainable Energy is proposing a utility-scale wind-power project of moderate size for the Garden Peninsula on the Upper Peninsula of Michigan in Delta County. This peninsula separates northern Lake Michigan from Big Bay de Noc. The number of wind turbines is as yet undetermined, but a leasehold map provided to Curry & Kerlinger indicates that turbines would be constructed on private lands (i.e., not in the Lake Superior State Forest) in mainly agricultural areas on the western side of the peninsula, and possibly on Little Summer Island. For the purpose of analysis, we are assuming wind turbines with a nameplate capacity of 2.0 MW. The turbine towers would likely be about 78.0 meters (256 feet) tall and have rotors of about 39.0 m (128 feet) long. With the rotor tip in the 12 o’clock position, the wind turbines would reach a maximum height of about 118.0 m (387 feet) above ground level (AGL). When in the 6 o’clock position, rotor tips would be about 38.0 m (125 feet) AGL. However, larger turbines with nameplate capacities (up to 2.5 MW and more) reaching to 152.5 m (500 feet) are may be used.

Humans construct humanity and personhood partially via interactions with other-than-human persons, such as animals, plants, and objects. I examine ritualized interactions between humans and others-than-human in a southeastern Indigenous "natureculture," exploring the intersections of ontology, personhood, and performance practice. Pvlvcekolv, an animistic Florida-based tribal town with a ceremonial Fire that pre-dates European Contact, maintains a centuries-old ritual tradition, the busk. Sometimes known as "Green Corn Ceremonialism," many Native communities share this tradition, including ii Cherokee, Chickasaw, Seminole, Yuchi, and other Creek peoples historically and in the present day. Performing the songs, dances, and ritual actions of the busk places participants into dialogue with other-than-human persons.

  • Wisconsin's Door Peninsula and Its Geomorphology
    WISCONSIN'S DOOR PENINSULA AND ITS GEOMORPHOLOGY Howard De II er AGS Collection, UW-Mllwaukee and Paul Stoelting University of Wisconsin-La Crosse The Door Peninsula of Wisconsin is one of the premier tourist regions of the American r~iddle West. According to a recent geography of Wisconsin (Vogeler et al 1986,8) , the region is best known for its picturesque sea­ scape, New England-style architecture, fish boils, and cherry orchards. Among geomorphologists, however, the region is known for the great variety of land­ form types and for the complex and changing geomorphological processes which have operated in the peninsula. Towering bluffs, sand dunes, lake terraces, abandoned beach ridges, swampy lowlands, and drumlin fields are only some of the many types of landforms to be found in the peninsula. Indeed, the region can be viewed as a unique geomorphological laboratory and an excellent example for classroom study. In this short paper an attempt is made to describe and analyze some of the more prominent landform features of the peninsula and the processes which have influenced their formation. LOCATION AND GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS The Door Peninsula, located In northeastern Wisconsin. is part of the Eastern Ridges and Lowlands province of the state. The peninsula extends in a northeasterly direction into Lake Michigan to separate Green Bay on the west from the main body of Lake Michigan on the east. The peninsula is approximately 64 miles long and about 26 miles wide on its southern end, between the mouth of the Fox River and the city of Kewaunee on Lake Michigan (Map I).

  • Jennifer Burton Thesis (PDF 1MB)
    ‘Fair Dinkum Personal Grooming’ Male beauty culture and men’s magazines in twentieth century Australia Jennifer Burton BA (Hons) Faculty of Creative Industries Queensland University of Technology 2008 1 Keywords Men’s magazines, masculinity, grooming, metrosexual, representation, cultural economy, media, readerships 2 Abstract In this thesis, I analyse the representation of grooming in Australian men’s lifestyle magazines to explore the emergence of new masculine subjectivities constructed around narcissism and the adoption of previously feminine-coded products and practices which may indicate important shifts in the cultural meanings of Australian masculinity. However, in order to talk about ‘new’ subjectivities and ‘shifts’ in masculine behaviours and cultural ideals, then it is imperative to demonstrate ‘old’ practices and ideologies, and so while the thesis is concerned with discourses of grooming and models of masculinity presented in the new genre of men’s lifestyle titles which appeared on the Australian market in the late 1990s, it frames this discussion with detailed analyses of previously unexplored Australian men’s general interest magazines from the 1930s. According to Frank Mort consumption, traditionally associated with the feminine has now become a central part of imagining men (1996: 17-18) while the representation and sale of masculinity is an increasingly important part of the ‘cultural economy’ (Mikosza, 2003). In this thesis I am concerned with the role of men’s lifestyle magazines and magazine representations of masculinity

  • Toward a New Conservation Vision for the Great Lakes Region: a Second Iteration
    Toward a New Conservation Vision for the Great Lakes Region: A Second Iteration (Revised September 2000) Prepared by The Nature Conservancy Great Lakes Program 8 South Michigan Avenue Suite 2301 Chicago, IL 60603 (312) 759-8017 Copyright 2000 Toward a New Conservation Vision for the Great Lakes Toward A New Conservation Vision for the Great Lakes In 1996, The Nature Conservancy’s Great Lakes Program launched a collaborative initiative to identify high priority biodiversity conservation sites in the Great Lakes region. This initiative was precipitated by the Conservancy broadening its focus beyond just rare and endangered species and natural communities. The Conservancy recognized that to effectively protect the full range of biodiversity, conservation efforts must include those species and natural communities that are more common and representative as well as those that are declining or vulnerable. Taking an Ecoregional Perspective To address this shift in focus, the Conservancy oriented its work based on ecoregions—large areas defined by the influences of shared climate and geology, the main factors that determine the broad-scale distribution of plants and animals.1 The Great Lakes ecoregion—which includes major portions of Canada and the United States—is one of 64 ecologically distinct regions of the continental United States. For each of these ecoregions, the Conservancy is developing a detailed plan that identifies the places that need to be protected to conserve native biodiversity for the long term. At many of these places, local communities, private landowners and an array of public and private entities are already leading important conservation efforts. The Great Lakes ecoregional planning initiative is a systematic approach that identifies all native species, natural communities and aquatic systems characteristic of the Great Lakes region and then determines how many of and where these elements of biodiversity need to be protected over the long term.
