The study of the question of why Shakespeare's Hamlet delays killing
Claudius in revenge for his father's murder is examined in light of the major
critical theories from neo-classical to modern scholarship. An expanded
treatment of the works of Fredson Bowers, Eleanor Prosser, Bertram Joseph,
and Roland Frye, is provided...
Stratigraphic measurement of the 1,238-rn thick Cowlitz Formation in the
southwest Washington type section along Olequa and Stillwater creeks reveals complex
facies succession of wave- to tide-dominated deltaic sequences. The underlying, 625-rn
thick upper member of the McIntosh Formation (as mapped by Wells, 1981) is composed
of two units: a...
Black liquor recovery boilers experience significant fire-side fouling problems due to the deposition of entrained particulate matter. Increased understanding of the mechanisms by which particles deposit on these surfaces will lead to more effective management of the resultant problems. There is some evidence which suggests that the sub-micron fraction of...
The purpose of this study was to identify antimutagens in yogurt active against the
experimental colon carcinogen, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). Our
initial experiments showed that acetone extracts of yogurt, or milk fermented by various
lactic acid bacteria were antimutagenic against MNNG and 3,2'-dimethyl-4-aminobiphenyl
(DMAB) in the Ames test (Salmonella typhimurium TA...
Riparian zones provide habitat for breeding birds in the semiarid western United States; however, there are few data available that address the effects of livestock grazing strategies on riparian habitats and avian communities. Documenting avian community composition in different riparian vegetation communities and relating vegetation communities to livestock grazing strategies...
The purposes of this study were to find out about the associations between
hostile attributional bias and aggressive behaviors among preschool-aged children and
to identify possible sources of their hostile attributional bias. Seventy-two
preschoolers with an average age of 4.76 and their mothers acted as participants.
Children's hostile attributional bias...
The Brushless Doubly-Fed Machine (BDFM) has recently become an
important research topic in the field of variable-speed AC drives. In
recent studies, the BDFM has shown significant potential for improving the
reliability and performance of AC drive systems, as well as reducing total
system cost. While the BDFM offers several...
The U.S. farm sector has undergone dramatic structural change during the
past fifty years, a chief result being that the number of large farms has increased
relative to the number of small farms. Numerous agricultural policies have been
instituted, with the partial objective of preserving the family farm. At the...
