Fifty-six prisoners were executed; a higher total than in any previous single year since states revised their death penalty statutes in the mid-1970s. This brings to 313 the total number of prisoners executed in the USA since 1977. New York became the thirty-eighth state to reintroduce the death penalty in March 1995. The states of Pennsylvania and Montana carried out their first executions since the death penalty resumed in 1977. However the two prisoners executed in Pennsylvania had chosen to abandon their appeals and had sought execution.

Wilson, PhD Date approved March 28, 2011 ii THE BRITISH AIR CAMPAIGN DURING THE BATTLE OF THE SOMME, APRIL-NOVEMBER, 1916: A PYRRHIC VICTORY ABSTRACT The Battle of the Somme was Britain’s first major offensive of the First World War. Just about every facet of the campaign has been analyzed and reexamined. However, one area of the battle that has been little explored is the second battle which took place simultaneously to the one on the ground. This second battle occurred in the skies above the Somme, where for the first time in the history of warfare a deliberate air campaign was planned and executed to support ground operations. The British Royal Flying Corps (RFC) was tasked with achieving air superiority over the Somme sector before the British Fourth Army attacked to start the ground offensive.

  • ROBERT LEE MOORE, 1882-1974 If One Were Asked to List
    BULLETIN OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 82, Number 3, May 1976 ROBERT LEE MOORE, 1882-1974 BY R. L. WILDER If one were asked to list mathematicians who had the most influence on the development of American mathematics during the first half of the twentieth century, certainly R. L. Moore's name would find a prominent place among them. Among the fifty doctorates which he supervised are two former presidents of the American Mathematical Society, four former presidents of the Mathematical Association of America, three members of the National Academy of Sciences; and the number of doctorates which have originated from Moore doctorates either directly or through later generations is apparently in excess of 500.2 These statistics already imply that the man must have been a great teacher; and that he was, any of his students would testify. The "Moore method" of teaching, the heart of which is to get the student to find his own proofs of theorems and, ultimately, to suggest and prove new theorems, has been recorded on a film made by the Mathematical Association of America with the title Challenge in the classroom. However, no film, no matter how faithful to detail, could record all the pertinent features of his teaching associated with the man's character and environment. An essential part of the method was Moore's ability to search out and recognize creative ability among the multitude of students who presented themselves at the University of Texas. It was Moore's custom to teach five courses (which he continued to do until his retirement at age 86!) consisting of calculus, an intermediate course such as advanced calculus, and three courses which began with point set topology ("Foundations of Mathema­ tics") and culminated in a research course.

  • Executive Summary
    SCIENCE | AGRICULTURE | CURRENT AFFAIRS “Although considered by many to be a success story, the benefi ts of productivity increases in world agriculture are unevenly spread. Often the poorest of the poor have gained little or noth- ing; and 850 million people are still hungry or malnourished with an additional 4 million more Agriculture joining their ranks annually. We are putting food that appears cheap on our tables; but it is Agriculture food that is not always healthy and that costs us dearly in terms of water, soil and the biological at a diversity on which all our futures depend.” —Professor Bob Watson, director, IAASTD CrossroadsCrossroads The International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, Science and Technology for Devel- International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, opment (IAASTD) , on which Agriculture at the Crossroads is based, was a three-year collab- orative effort begun in 2005 that assessed our capacity to meet development and sustainabil- Science and Technology for Development ity goals of: • Reducing hunger and poverty • Improving nutrition, health and rural livelihoods • Facilitating social and environmental sustainability Governed by a multi-stakeholder bureau comprised of 30 representatives from government and 30 from civil society, the process brought together 110 governments and 400 experts, rep- resenting non-governmental organizations (NGOs), the private sector, producers, consumers, the scientifi c community, multilateral environment agreements (MEAs), and multiple interna- tional agencies involved in the agricultural and rural development sectors. In addition to assessing existing conditions and knowledge, the IAASTD uses a simple set of model projections to look at the future, based on knowledge from past events and existing trends such as population growth, rural/urban food and poverty dynamics, loss of agricultural land, water availability, and climate change effects.

The completion of this dissertation owes much to Dr. Trimble's assistance and confi­ dence in me. Thanks are also due to the other members of my reading committee, Dr. Herbert Coon and Dr. Alan Osborne. In a large, some­ times impersonal, university, it is reassuring to find such warm and human gentlemen. I am indeed grateful to my colleagues at Western Maryland college, Professors Spicer, Sorkin, Lightner, Jordy, and Eshleman, for their conversations and assistance in gathering information relevant to this study, and their moral support during completion of it . I especially want to thank my departmental chairman, Dr. James Lightner, for his many valuable comments, assistance, and encouragement.
