Earlier papers by Brown [1973] and Brown and Beattie [1975] showed, for the common case of positively interrelated explanatory variables, that the ridge regression estimator of Hoerl and Kennard [1970] gave much larger bias and mean square error (MSE) for models with unlike signs. To avoid this excessive bias and...

Steer calves were fed individually twice daily on rations containing barley, protein supplement, and alfalfa pellets. There was no daily gain advantage in feeding concentrates at more than approximately 2% of body weight daily. Feed conversion and cost of gain slightly favored those lots which received larger amounts of steam-rolled...

We, for the first time, demonstrate that orthorhombic V₂O₅ can exhibit superior electrochemical performance in sodium ion batteries when uniformly coated inside nanoporous carbon. The encapsulated V₂O₅ shows a specific capacity as high as 276 mAh/g, while the whole nanocomposite exhibits a capacity of 170 mAh/g. The V₂O₅/C composite was...

Groundnut ringspot virus (GRSV) and Tomato chlorotic spot virus
(TCSV) are two emerging tospoviruses in Florida. In a survey of the
southeastern United States, GRSV and TCSV were frequently detected in
solanaceous crops and weeds with tospovirus-like symptoms in south
Florida, and occurred sympatrically with Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV)...
A recent identification of the two-component aggregation pheromone of the invasive stink bug species, Halyomorpha halys (Stal), in association with a synergist, has greatly improved the ability to accurately monitor the seasonal abundance and distribution of this destructive pest. We evaluated the attraction of H. halys to black pyramid traps...
In the thrust to shift away from fossil fuels towards renewable options, Ecuador produces African palm-based biodiesel, which is currently imported by the Unites States. An analysis of this specific interaction was done via personal contact with the industry in Ecuador and extensive literature review of the topic. The results...
The specific activity of ⁶⁵Zn (nanocuries ⁶⁵Zn/g total Zn)
was determined in various organs of the common coastal mussel,
Mytilus californianus Conrad, collected from six locations along
the Pacific Coast. These organs included the gills, mantle, foot,
reproductive organs, adductor muscle, and viscera. After ashing
and dissolving with nitric acid...
The purpose of this study was to assess the attitudes of students, teachers, and principals toward skills taught in consumer and
homemaking education. The sample included 35 principals, 58
teachers, and 272 students in Oregon secondary schools. Respondents'
attitudes were assessed by analyzing the data on the basis of the...
Thomas Stearns Eliot’s 1922 modernist poem The Waste Land presents itself as an alternative to the decaying society Eliot found himself inhabiting. It begins as a personal means of pulling together one’s fragmented consciousness, but in doing so Eliot manages to present a solution to a world of selfishness—looking beyond...
A growing body of work reveals that animal-mediated pollination is negatively affected by anthropogenic disturbance. Landscape-scale disturbance results in two often inter-related processes: (1) habitat loss, and (2) disruptions of habitat configuration (i.e. fragmentation). Understanding the relative effects of such processes is critical in designing effective management strategies to limit...
While historiography and interest in Tudor England at both the popular and specialist levels presents few signs of diminishing, there may nonetheless exist a sense that we have little left to learn about this period and its culture. A notable gap in our knowledge, however, remains regarding the mysterious disease...
Purpose of the Study:
The purpose of this study was to analyze, in the mathematics
classrooms, career-oriented verbal mathematics problems on the
achievement and attitude of the vocational mathematics student.
These career-oriented mathematics problems, used as advanced
organizers, were contrasted with mathematics word problems of a
more abstract and generalized...
Novel broad-spectrum antimicrobials are a critical component of a strategy for combating antibiotic-resistant pathogens. In this
study, we explored the activity of the broad-spectrum antiviral compound ST-669 for activity against different intracellular bacteria
and began a characterization of its mechanism of antimicrobial action. ST-669 inhibits the growth of three different...
The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of the use
of vocationally - oriented applications on the achievement and attitude
of community college beginning algebra students. The applications
were chosen to be representative of problems encountered in
a variety of occupations. They were in contrast to the...
The Problem
The general purpose of this study was to determine the
completeness and adequacy of student personnel services in
Negro colleges of the South Atlantic States. Specifically,
the problem was (1) to identify and analyze the nature of
student personnel practices in Negro colleges of the South
Atlantic States;...
The environmental health science community recognizes polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as a re-emerging class of environmental pollutants due to their persistence and prominence in mixtures of concern. Due to their widespread distribution in the environment, exposure to PAHs often occur as complex chemical mixtures. Exposures are linked to numerous adverse...
Little is known about the role that worms played in the lives of modern Europeans. This research strove to combine a multitude of primary sources to shape a cohesive depiction of the role of parasitic worms in modern Europe 1700-1800. The Scientific Revolution played a key role in changing the...
