Geology and Mineral Resources of Douglas County
STATE OF OREGON DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY AND MINERAL INDUSTRIES 1069 State Office Building Portland, Oregon 97201 BU LLE TIN 75 GEOLOGY & MINERAL RESOURCES of DOUGLAS COUNTY, OREGON Le n Ra mp Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries The preparation of this report was financially aided by a grant from Doug I as County GOVERNING BOARD R. W. deWeese, Portland, Chairman William E. Miller, Bend Donald G. McGregor, Grants Pass STATE GEOLOGIST R. E. Corcoran FOREWORD Douglas County has a history of mining operations extending back for more than 100 years. During this long time interval there is recorded produc tion of gold, silver, copper, lead, zinc, mercury, and nickel, plus lesser amounts of other metalliferous ores. The only nickel mine in the United States, owned by The Hanna Mining Co., is located on Nickel Mountain, approxi mately 20 miles south of Roseburg. The mine and smelter have operated con tinuously since 1954 and provide year-round employment for more than 500 people. Sand and gravel production keeps pace with the local construction needs. It is estimated that the total value of all raw minerals produced in Douglas County during 1972 will exceed $10, 000, 000 . This bulletin is the first in a series of reports to be published by the Department that will describe the general geology of each county in the State and provide basic information on mineral resources. It is particularly fitting that the first of the series should be Douglas County since it is one of the min eral leaders in the state and appears to have considerable potential for new discoveries during the coming years. -
Complex Price Dynamics in Vertically Linked Cobweb Markets in Less Developed Countries
Complex Price Dynamics in Vertically Linked Cobweb Markets in Less Developed Countries Muhammad Imran Chaudhry Karachi School for Business & Leadership Karachi, Pakistan imran.chaudhry@ksbl. edu.pk Mario J. Miranda Department of Agricultural, Environmental & Development Economics The Ohio State University Columbus, OH, USA [email protected] February 16, 2017 Abstract Advances in nonlinear dynamics have resuscitated interest in the theory of endogenous price fluctuations. In this paper, we enrich the traditional cobweb model by incorporating vertical linkages between agricultural markets, an important aspect of agricultural production in less developed countries that has been largely ignored by the existing literature on chaotic cobweb models. To this end, under sufficiently general cost and demand functions, we develop a parsimonious, dynamic model to capture mutual interdependencies between upstream and downstream markets arising from the vertically linked structure of agricultural values chains. The model is solved under the naïve expectations hypothesis to derive a system of coupled, time- delay difference equations characterizing price dynamics in vertically linked cobweb markets. Mathematical and numerical analyses reveal that vertical linkages between downstream and upstream cobweb markets have profound effects on local stability, global price dynamics and onset of chaos. We also add an empirical dimension to an otherwise theoretical literature by benchmarking moments of prices simulated by our model against actual poultry value chain price data from Pakistan. Simulated prices reproduce the stylized patterns observed in the actual price data, i.e., quasi-periodic behavior, positive first-order autocorrelation, relatively higher variation in upstream prices compared to downstream prices, low skewness and negative kurtosis. In doing so the paper addresses a major criticism of the theory of endogenous price fluctuations, most notably the failure of chaotic cobweb models to adequately replicate positively autocorrelated prices. -

In case of abuse or copyright appearing without permission e-mail [email protected] 1 An intimate and intermedial form: early television Shakespeare from the BBC, 1937-39 In the twenty-seven months between February 1937 and April 1939 the fledgling BBC television service from Alexandra Palace broadcast more than twenty Shakespeare adaptations.1 The majority of these productions were short programmes featuring ‘scenes from…’ the plays, although there were also substantial adaptations of Othello (1937), Julius Caesar (1938), Twelfth Night and The Tempest (both 1939) as well as a presentation of David Garrick’s 1754 version of The Taming of the Shrew, Katharine and Petruchio (1939). There were other Shakespeare-related programmes as well, and the playwright himself appeared in three distinct historical dramas. In large part because no recordings exist of these transmissions (or of any British television Shakespeare before 1955), these ‘lost’ adaptations have received little scholarly attention. -
Foreign Seeds and Plants
U. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE. DIVISION OF BOTANY. IXVENTOJIY NO. 7. FOREIGN SEEDS AND PLANTS IMPORTED JiY THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, THROUGH THE SECTION OF SEED AND PLANT INTRODUCTION, FOR DISTRIBUTION IN COOPERA- TION WITH THE STATE AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATIONS. NUMBERS 2701-3400. INVENTORY OF FOREIGN SEEDS AND PLANTS. INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT. The present inventoiy or catalogue of seeds and plants includes the collections of the agricultural explorers of the Section of Seed and Plant Introduction, as well as a large number of donations from mis- cellaneous sources. There are a series of new and interesting vege- tables, field crops, ornamentals, and forage plants secured by Mr. Walter T. Swingle in France, Algeria, and Asia Minor. Another important exploration was that conducted by Mr. Mark A. Carleton, an assistant in the Division of Vegetable Physiology and Pathology. The wheats and other cereals were published in Inventoiy No. 4, but notices of many of Mr. Carleton\s miscellaneous importations are printed here for the first time. The fruits and ornamentals collected by Dr. Seaton A. Knapp in Japan are here listed, together with a number of Chinese seeds from the Yangtze Valley, presented by Mr. G. D. Brill, of Wuchang. Perhaps the most important items are the series of tropical and subtropical seeds and plants secured through the indefatigable efforts of Hon. Barbour Lathrop, of Chicago. Mr. Lathrop, accompanied by Mr. David G. Fairchild, formerly in charge of the Section of Seed and Plant Introduction, conducted at his own expense an extended exploration through the West Indies, Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Brazil, and Argentina, and procured many extremely valuable seeds and plants, some of which had never been previously introduced into this country. -

Konstantin Stanislavski an Actor's Work: a Student's Diary
An Actor’s Work Stanislavski’s ‘system’ has dominated actor-training in the West since his writings were first translated into English in the 1920s and 30s. His systematic attempt to outline a psycho-physical technique for acting single-handedly revolutionized standards of acting in the theatre. Until now, readers and students have had to contend with inaccurate, misleading and difficult-to-read English-language versions. Some of the mistranslations have resulted in profound distortions in the way his system has been interpreted and taught. At last, Jean Benedetti has succeeded in translating Stanislavski’s huge manual into a lively, fascinating and accurate text in English. He has remained faithful to the author’s original intentions, putting the two books previously known as An Actor Prepares and Building a Character back together into one volume, and in a colloquial and readable style for today’s actors. The result is a major contribution to the theatre, and a service to one of the great innovators of the twentieth century.
