These abstracts are so com" ttprehensivct and at the same concise, that their equal could not be „duplicated, and in some instances all or parts of some of them „were used in this publication* „John Ruel Manning, in: Fish Meal in animal ..Feeding, with Bibliography. U.S. Department „of Commerce, Bureau of Fisheries, Washing- „ton D.C. 1930.'^ ,,Dear Sir, „I am very glad to receive a copy of the „International „Review of Poultry Science'* the official organ of the „World's Poultry Science Association, so kindly sent by ,,you for exchange. „I am glad to keep your Journal on the exchange list „to our Indian Veterinary Journal, and have mailed this „day bij separate post, a copy of the January 1931 issue to ,,your address. „Hope you will be sending your Journal regularly* ,,With compliments," Yours faithfully, P. SRINIVASA RAO, G.M.VC.

FROILANO DE MELLO, Nova Goa, Portuguese India. I very much appreciated the receipt of the International Review of Poultry Science and the invaluable abstracting service in relation to poultry diseases that it offers, and shall be only too plaesed to place the name of your Journal on our regular exchange hst. We will also be pleased to further the aims of the World's Poultry Science Association by discuss- ing your aims in this Journal and drawing attention to the publication of the International Review of Poultry Science. Yours faithfully, J. C. ROSS, Editor. University of Sydney, Australia- IV ROTTERDAM, April 193L Dear Fellow-Member, I have the honour to enclose the first number of the fourth year of the International Review- From the report of the meeting held in Paris you will see that the membership oí the World's Poultry Science Association has increased considerably during recent years but I am of the opinion that the membership can still be increased considerably. I think I can rely on your support in getting new members and am therefore enclosing a form of application for membership with this number and should be greatly obliged if you would return this to me filled in with the name of a new member. At the same time I wish to draw your attention to the fact that the International Review needs the support of all members and you cannot better show your willingness to support the good work than by sending me all kinds of publications dealing with poultry, or by trying to get publishers of new books, pamphlets, or periodicals to send me copies of their pubhcations. For the sake of propaganda I am wilhng to place a number of copies of the Review at your disposal. The publication of the Review naturally calls for financial sacrifices on the part of our cash. For this reason our work will be greatly lightened if the subscriptions for 1931 are quickly paid on request. Regarding the collection of subscriptions I am consulting the Members of Council for your country and will inform you as early as possible of the results. Yours faithfully. Dr. B. J. O TE HENNEPE. V TO THE GOVERNMENTS PARTICIPATING IN THE FOURTH WORLD S POULTRY CONGRESS held in London, England, July 22-30, 1930. The World's Poultry Science Association under whose auspices the World's Poultry Congresses are held wishes to transmitt to you the following resolutions which were passed at the Final Assembly oí the Congresc ¿md approved by the Council of the World's Poultry Science Association. No. L ,,That the attention of the various Governments participating be drawn to the danger of the importation of a disease known as Pseudo-Fowl Pest, with a view to suitable measures being taken for its exclusion and control in each country/' Reference is made to an article entitled Pseudo-Fowl Pest by Dr. W. K. Picard, Veterinary Institute at Buitenzorg, Dutch East Indies, January, 1930, as abstracted in the International Review of Poultry Science, Tome II, No. 4, December, 1929, page 70. Attention is also directed to the necessity of establishing a proper quarantine of all birds returned from exhibitions, particularly from international shows. No. 2. „That it is a matter of urgent importance that each Government should include poultry statistics in each Agricultural Census taken/' It was suggested in this connection that a standard form would be desirable and that probably the International Institute of Agricul- ture at Rome might be able to furnish such questions. N04 3. ,,That all eggs, cold or gas stored in any European country be stamped with an internationally agreed mark, and that VI Steps should be taken for a meeting of authorized representatives of the European Governments concerned to be convened by the Inter- national Institute of Agriculture, Rome, as soon as possible in order to arrive at some definite agreement on the subject." No, 4, ,,That the various Government Departments and Egg- Laying Competition Committees conducting Egg-Laying Competi- tions be asked to consider the advisability of introducing the 2 oz. (56.7 grammes) standard from the commencement of the Competition/' No. 5. ,,That in subsequent World's Poultry Congresses the Governments be urged to accompany each National Exhibit by a short descriptive booklet with diagrams and statistics so as to enable comparisons to be made between the development and progress of the poultry industry in the different countries." These resolutions are submitted for your consideration and action. The World's Poultry Science Association desires to be of help in coordinating the poultry interests in the various countries and thus welcomes your suggestions and questions. Faithfully yours, Dr. GUSTAVE F. HEUSER, Secretary-Treasurer, World's Poultry Science Association, Cornell University, Ithaca, New-York, U.S.A. VII COUNCIL MEETING Paris, 14 February 1931, In consultation with the President, Mr. Kock, and the first Vice-President for Europe, Professor Castelló, a meeting of the Council was organized in Paris. In order to give the Members of the Council an opportunity to prepare for the journey I circulated the following notice in December 1930, COUNCIL MEETING. ROTTERDAM, December 1930. ,,Dear Member of Council, „After consultation with our President, Mr. Kock, and our first ,,Vice-President, Prof. Castello, it has been decided to hold a meeting in „Paris during the large International Poultry Exhibition to be held there in ,, February 1931. „I have written to our French Members of Council, Prof. Voitellier ,,and Mr. R. Caucurte, in connection with the date and place and shall ,,inform you further as soon as I receive their answers.

  • Bastos, C., 2008. from India to Brazil, with a Microscope and a Seat in Parliament
    From India to Brazil, with a microscope and a seat in Parliament: the life and work of Dr. Indalêncio Froilano de Melo1 By Cristiana Bastos Indalêncio Froilano de Melo was born in Benaulin, Goa, on the 17th of May 1887. His was a traditional family of Brahmin, Catholic, and landed local aristocrats of the pro- vince of Salcete. Like many other Goan families, they had been Catholics for centuries, had Portuguese names and were at ease with official hierarchies; at the same time, they ranked highly in a social structure that still acknowledged caste status. Moreover, Indalêncio’s father, Constâncio Fran- cisco de Melo, was a lawyer, while his mother, Delfina 1 The on-going analysis included in this article is part of the project Empire, centers and provinces: the circulation of medical knowledge (FCT PTDC/HCT/72143/2006) and benefits from earlier research conducted within the scope of the project Medicina Colonial, Estruturas do Império e Vidas Pós-coloniais em Português (POCTI/41075/ANT/ 2001), both funded by Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia and hosted by the Institute of Social Sciences, University of Lisbon.

  • The Life & Rhymes of Jay-Z, an Historical Biography
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE LIFE & RHYMES OF JAY-Z, AN HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY: 1969-2004 Omékongo Dibinga, Doctor of Philosophy, 2015 Dissertation directed by: Dr. Barbara Finkelstein, Professor Emerita, University of Maryland College of Education. Department of Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership. The purpose of this dissertation is to explore the life and ideas of Jay-Z. It is an effort to illuminate the ways in which he managed the vicissitudes of life as they were inscribed in the political, economic cultural, social contexts and message systems of the worlds which he inhabited: the social ideas of class struggle, the fact of black youth disempowerment, educational disenfranchisement, entrepreneurial possibility, and the struggle of families to buffer their children from the horrors of life on the streets. Jay-Z was born into a society in flux in 1969. By the time Jay-Z reached his 20s, he saw the art form he came to love at the age of 9—hip hop— become a vehicle for upward mobility and the acquisition of great wealth through the sale of multiplatinum albums, massive record deal signings, and the omnipresence of hip-hop culture on radio and television. In short, Jay-Z lived at a time where, if he could survive his turbulent environment, he could take advantage of new terrains of possibility. This dissertation seeks to shed light on the life and development of Jay-Z during a time of great challenge and change in America and beyond. THE LIFE & RHYMES OF JAY-Z, AN HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY: 1969-2004 An historical biography: 1969-2004 by Omékongo Dibinga Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2015 Advisory Committee: Professor Barbara Finkelstein, Chair Professor Steve Klees Professor Robert Croninger Professor Derrick Alridge Professor Hoda Mahmoudi © Copyright by Omékongo Dibinga 2015 Acknowledgments I would first like to thank God for making life possible and bringing me to this point in my life.

Kwaku’s work is a testament to Brent’s contribution to the evolution of British black music and the commercial infrastructure to support it. His research contained separate sections on labels, shops, artists, radio stations and sound systems. In this version we have amalgamated these into a single ‘encyclopedia’ and added entries that cover the period between 2007-2020.

  • An Explanation to the Occurrence of Sporadic Cases of Urinary Schistosomiasis in India
    AN EXPLANATION TO THE OCCURRENCE OF SPORADIC CASES OF URINARY SCHISTOSOMIASIS IN INDIA. BY Cor. I. FROIr,ANO DU MRI,LO. (NovA GÓA) Received December 26, 1935. UP-TO-DATE Bilharziosis has not been registered in India as an endemic dis- ease, despite some cases imported from abroad. Stanley Kemp and Gravely'. in an exhaustive study failed to infect the molluscs of Hyderabad and Secunderabad with miracidia of S. hrematobium. I myself' working with S. mansoni imported in our territory by Mozambique troops since 1912, arrived to the following conclusions : (a) no inhabitant of Portuguese India showed any signal of a bilharzic dysentery in the villages occupied from 1912 to 1920 by the African infected troops (clinical and parasitological enquiry), (b) Paclielabra mcesta, Indoplanorbis exustus, Melanodes pyramis collected from various parts of our territory did not show any furcocercaria of S. 'mansoni type. Two types of furcocercariae were however found in Indoplanorbis exustus, but anatomically different from those of S. mansoni 3; (c) we failed to infect with S. mansoni miracidia the above-quoted molluscs. P. mcesta and I. exustus were absolutely indifferent to those miracidia ; M. pyramts, however, showed an evident miracidial attraction. However, no actual penetration was seen, neither any stage of further sporocystic cycle. My conclusions were that, on epidemiological and experimental grounds— at least with the molluscs above quoted—there was no fear of endemisatior, of Intestinal Bilharziosis in Portuguese India. Cautiously, however, I added that - one should not lose the view of a fortuitous and eventual adaptation of Schistosoma to some local molluscs. Negative conclusions were reached in British India, where Seymour Sewell4 states the non-existence of Bullinus and Hypsobia, the universally recognised hosts of S.

  • The Flemish Cuckoo
    THE FLEMISH CUCKOO Searching for their origin Text and photos: Norbert Schollaert (B) PART 3 CHICKEN BREEDS AND EXHIBITIONS From the middle of the 19th century, we see a shift towards greater consumption of imported products and again more meat. The advances in farming techniques by selecting and crossbreeding also followed out in the poultry world. But it was still the better middle class who could afford the keeping and breeding of purebred fowl. From this time, in America, Britain and the European mainland, distinguishable breeds of chicken got a breed name. The upper middle classes was developing an interest in keeping chickens for their ornamental value. The exhibitions of farmyard animals became popular. During the Belle Epoque, in 1900, the consumption of eggs doubled and the famous ‘poulets de Bruxelles’ were in great demand on the rich urban tables. The triangle Aalst - Mechelen - Brussels acquired fame with his fatteners which produced up to 1000 chickens per year. It was the heyday of the Belgian breeds, which locations we can see on a map from 1903 “Habitats des races Belges” (courtesy of the Image store of the CAG). In the north, the Campine; in the east the Braekel and Courtrai à cinq droits (The Courtrai or Kortrijk Fowl was a short-legged Braekel with 5 toes, that according to Edward Brown was a descendant of the Dorkings); in the south the Race Ardennaise and the Race Herve (the Ardenner and the Herve fowl) and in the centre a large region with Minorca (a Spanish variety with black plumes, which was seen in 1783 for the first time in England and in 1880 already was bred in Germany), the Race Coucou (The Cuckoo coloured chickens) and Brabançonnes.

  • Pastor E. Arnold Sitz and the Protéstants Witnessing To
    PPPASTOR E.E.E. AAARNOLD SSSITZ AND THE PPPROTÉSTANTS ::: WWWITNESSING TO THE WWWAUWATOSA GGGOSPEL Pastor Peter M. Prange Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary Church History Thesis (1998) Revised and Augmented (2004) Author’s Preface A church historian – any historian for that matter – cannot claim infallibility; he can only strive for accuracy. This is especially true when he goes beyond recording the simple facts of history and tries to explain the “why” and “how” of historical events and movements. These judgments quite often fall outside the realm of objective observation. Such historical judgments are usually tainted with a certain amount of subjectivism – something that this writer will readily admit is also characteristic of the very paper resting in your hands. It is especially difficult to be objective when researching and writing about the Protéstant Controversy which coursed through the veins of the Wisconsin Synod in the 1920s and beyond. First of all, one is invariably forced to choose a side and wield a weapon. That temptation is even greater when the people involved in these tumultuous events include some who shared their flesh and blood with you. It is natural to put those participants in the best possible light, to make them the protagonists, the ones wearing the white hats. One must also steer clear of judging motives. To make historical judgments – even to tender opinions – about motives of people long dead is both precarious and presumptuous. Ironically, a prominent accusation brought by both sides in the Protéstant Controversy was that of judging hearts. To judge hearts is always impossible, especially when seventy years separates us from the people and events of this controversy.

  • Revision of the Family Devescovinidae, Its Genera and Species, with Record of the Indian Species of Devescovina by Prof
    REVISION OF THE FAMILY DEVESCOVINIDAE, ITS GENERA AND SPECIES, WITH RECORD OF THE INDIAN SPECIES OF DEVESCOVINA BY PROF. COL. I. FROILANO DE MELLO (NovA-GoA) Received December 2, 1940 THE enormous material to be found in India where the termites are so abun- dant leads me to make a revision of the protozoan fauna harboured in the intestine of some of these species hoping that such a revision will be of some help to the protozoologists working in this country and that their attention will be called to such a wide and still scarcely explored field of scientific research. For rendering this paper more instructive, it will be illustrated with semi- diagrammatic figures of the different genera and species included in a family and the writer will be grateful to any scientist who may help him in this task, lending him any paper on termites parasites, which he may possess, in order to make this research the most complete possible.
