  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

MARSHALL1 & KATHY B. R. HILL Dept. of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Connecticut, 75 N. Eagleville Rd., Storrs, CT 06269 USA 1Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A morphologically cryptic subspecies of Neotibicen similaris (Smith and Grossbeck) is described from forests of the Apalachicola region of the southeastern United States. Although the new form exhibits a highly distinctive male calling song, it hybridizes extensively where it meets populations of the nominate subspecies in parapatry, by which it is nearly surrounded. This is the first reported example of hybridization between North American nonperiodical cicadas. Acoustic and morphological characters are added to the original description of the nominate subspecies, and illustrations of com- plex hybrid song phenotypes are presented. The biogeography of N. similaris is discussed in light of historical changes in forest composition on the southeastern Coastal Plain. Key words: Acoustic behavior, sexual signals, hybridization, hybrid zone, parapatric distribution, speciation Introduction The cryptotympanine cicadas of North America have received much recent attention with the publication of comprehensive molecular and cladistic phylogenies and the reassignment of all former North American Tibicen Latreille species into new genera (Hill et al.

    The Gloworm Cicadas are the souls of poets who cannot keep quiet because, when they were alive, they never wrote the poems they wanted to. – Socrates, in Plato’s Phaedrus Volume XXII No. 1 January-February 2015 An Extension Newsletter of the Dept. of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Entomology, & Plant Pathology Bug and Plant Camper Riley Sullivan Wins Big at Local and Regional Science Fairs in California by John Guyton We are excited to announce that Bug and Plant camper Riley Sullivan from Moreno, CA, won first place in a field of 300 at her school’s science fair for her camp-inspired project, “Like Moths to a Bulb?” Riley compared incandescent, fluorescent, and LED lamps to determine which attracted the most insects. Following Riley’s initial win, Mrs. Thomas, her Starkville grandmother, emailed, “Riley's science project on Entomology won overall in her age group at Regional Science Fair yesterday. It was held at UC Riverside. She also won the Gold Medal awarded by the Entomology Department.” Riley’s mother added, “The University of California Riverside Entomology Department gave her a huge bag of gifts including two shirts, a large bug book, $50 gift certificate to Barnes and Noble, water bottles etc. I guess they liked her project. So on to the next level she goes. Thank you [Bug and Plant Camp staff]!!” A gold medal from the University of California Riverside Entomology Department, whose programs I greatly admire, is an incredible endorsement of Riley’s research skills. Congratulations and continued success, Riley! BUG AND PLANT CAMP ALERT Riley at Bug and Register Soon to Reserve Your Spot Plant Camp.

  • The Secret Power by Marie Corelli
    1 THE SECRET POWER BY MARIE CORELLI CHAPTER I A cloud floated slowly above the mountain peak. Vast, fleecy and white as the crested foam of a sea-wave, it sailed through the sky with a divine air of majesty, seeming almost to express a consciousness of its own grandeur. Over a spacious tract of Southern California it extended its snowy canopy, moving from the distant Pacific Ocean across the heights of the Sierra Madre, now and then catching fire at its extreme edge from the sinking sun, which burned like a red brand flung on the roof of a roughly built hut situated on the side of a sloping hollow in one of the smaller hills. The door of the hut stood open; there were a couple of benches on the burnt grass outside, one serving as a table, the other as a chair. Papers and books were neatly piled on the table,—and on the chair, if chair it might be called, a man sat reading. His appearance was not prepossessing at a first glance, though his actual features could hardly be seen, so concealed were they by a heavy growth of beard. In the way of clothing he had little to trouble him. Loose woollen trousers, a white shirt, and a leathern belt to keep the two garments in place, formed his complete outfit, finished off by wide canvas shoes. A thatch of dark hair, thick and ill combed, apparently served all his need of head covering, and he seemed unconscious of, or else indifferent to, the hot glare of the summer sky which was hardly tempered by the long shadow of the floating cloud.

  • Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge Final Comprehensive Conservation Plan 2002
    Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge Final Comprehensive Conservation Plan 2002 Comprehensive Conservation Plan INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND This Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP) has been prepared for Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge (Refuge). The CCP is a management tool to be used by the Refuge staff. It will help guide management decisions over the next 15 years, and set forth strategies for achieving Refuge goals and objectives within that timeframe. Overriding considerations reflected in the plan are that fish and wildlife conservation requires first priority in refuge management, and that wildlife-dependent recreation is allowed and encouraged as long as it is compatible with, or does not detract from, the mission of the National Wildlife Refuge System or purposes of the Refuge. This chapter discusses the following topics: a brief description of the Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge and how it came into existence; the purpose of and need for the plan; the purpose and vision of the Refuge; the National Wildlife Refuge System mission, goals and guiding principles, including the legal context which guides management; and other relevant plans and partnerships that affect Refuge management. This plan details program planning levels that are above current budget allocations and, as such, are primarily for Service strategic planning and program prioritization purposes. This plan does not constitute a secure commitment for staffing increases, or funding for future refuge-specific land acquisitions, construction projects or operational and maintenance increases. Refuge Overview: History of Refuge Establishment, Acquisition, and Management The Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1990 under authority of the Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956, and was the first Refuge in West Virginia.
