Foundation seed is made available to the University of Idaho Agricultural Experiment Station, Idaho Crop Improvement Association, Utah Crop Improvement Association, other plant materials centers and cooperating agencies. Seed is distributed as provided for by allocation and exchange or other written agreements. Foundation seed of recent releases may also be provided to soil conservation districts for registered or certified seed production under District Seed Increase (DSI) programs.

Abstract Impact cratering is an abrupt, spectacular process that occurs on any world with a solid surface. On Earth, these craters are easily eroded or destroyed through endogenic processes. The Moon and Mercury, however, lack a significant atmosphere, meaning craters on these worlds remain intact longer, geologically. In this thesis, remote-sensing techniques were used to investigate impact melt emplacement about Mercury’s fresh, complex craters. For complex lunar craters, impact melt is preferentially ejected from the lowest rim elevation, implying topographic control. On Venus, impact melt is preferentially ejected downrange from the impact site, implying impactor-direction control. Mercury, despite its heavily-cratered surface, trends more like Venus than like the Moon.

Manson Introduction This work continues the previous seismic hazards bibliography (Manson, 1988). Like that work, this includes all citations pertinent to the study of earthquake hazards in western Washington and the metropolitan Portland, Oregon, area that were received by the Washing­ ton Division of Geology and Earth Resources Library from September 1988 through Septem­ ber 1991. Studies that could shed light on the causes and(or) effects of earthquakes in western Wash­ ington and adjacent areas have been included. Thus, the bibliography emphasizes the seis­ mology, paleoseismology, geophysics, and earthquake-related hazards of the targeted geo­ graphic areas and includes studies of structural geology and tectonics, glacial geology, geochronology, slope stability, soil mechanics, and other pertinent subjects.

  • The Palm Oil Pioneer: Commander W.L
    SUSAN M. MARTIN MARTIN SUSAN M. The UP Saga Susan M. Martin Histories of the plantations sector in Malaysia have largely focused on the rubber industry and on the rise and fall of big British-owned colonial enter- prises. But since independence, the sector has entered a new phase of spectacular growth founded on the oil palm. This volume offers a radically different history by telling the fascinating story of United Plantations Berhad (UP), a firm of Scandinavian origin that has spanned both eras and evolved along quite different lines from the normal models of British imperial business. The book is also unusual in that the author had full access to well-preserved company records. Tracing the company’s origins before the First World War, The UP Saga describes the crisis years of economic depression, Japanese occupa- T tion and the turmoil of the Emergency, followed by Merdeka and the years he of spectacular growth that have lasted to the present day. ‘[The UP Saga] is expertly researched and is therefore a radically differ- UP ent history of the plantation industry. It offers the reader an authoritative and quite remarkable study … authenticated by the personal experiences The of many recognised experts in this field. … Through her work on The UP S Saga Susan Martin has produced a work of historic importance and great aga interest to all those interested in the development of the global palm oil industry.’ ~ William King, London Metropolitan University UP ‘Potential purchasers should not be fooled by the title into believing that this book is merely yet another company history.

    THE BRITISH PRESS & NORTHERN IRELAND EAMONN McCANN THE BRITISH PRESS AND NORTHERN IRELAND EAMONN McCANN Northern Ireland Socialist Research Centre Printed by SW (Litho) Printers Ltd ITU1 6 Cottons Gardens ‘ ‘ London E2 8DN British newspapers are wont to congratulate themselves on their high journalistic standards. The British people are encouraged to believe that their press is the best in the world. Phrases such as ‘guardians of liberty’ have been known not to stick in the throats of leader-writers. During the past three years, while editors and higher executives have whiled away the time in contemplation of their own ethical purity, the job went on of managing and mangling the news from Northern Ireland. Most British people have a distorted view of what is happening in Northern Ireland. This is because they believe what they read. There have been honorable exceptions. But examination of reports reveals a clear pattern of distortion. The news has systematically been presented, consciously or not, so as to justify the assumptions and prejudices of British establishment and to serve the immediate political needs of British Governments. Immediately after October 5th 1968 dozens of journalists descended on Northern Ireland. At one point the Mirror had twelve people in Derry. Few of these had any detailed knowledge of the situation. Some, mindful of the May days in France that year, spent much of their time trying to identify a local Danny the Red. Others would wander into the Bogside and ask if they could be introduced to someone who had been discriminated against. Most people prominent in the events preceding the October march had experiences such as Miss Rhoda Churchill of the Daily Mail coming to their front door seeking the address of an articulate, catholic, unemployed, slum-dweller she could talk to.
