As childhood obesity rises in the United States, so does the need for effective, sustainable physical activity interventions. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of an early morning care program as well as determine the program’s effects on moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) during the program and...
The purpose of this study was to unfold positions of migrating SBAE teachers to understand support and challenge to retain teachers in migratory contexts. Previous literature discusses problems related to teacher mobility as functions of teacher-student matching, teacher skill and effort, school environments, and advancing student learning. In an effort...

A taxonomic study of the genus Gautieria Vitt. is presented.
Existing type collections were re-examined, fully described and
figures. Twenty-six species are recognized. Two provisional subgenera
are proposed: Gautieria and Clelandia. Within the subgenus
Gautieria, two provisional sections are proposed: Gautieria and
Trappea. G. morchellaeformis var. globospora, and
G. morchellaeformis...
The design considerations for fast-settling operational
amplifiers (opamps) differ significantly between sampled-data switchedcapacitor
(SC) and conventional continuous-time applications. In SC
circuits, the shape of the output voltage waveform of an opamp is of no
consequence provided that the output settles to within a specified
tolerance of its steady-state value prior...
"An assessment of quota market efficiency: The New Zealand Annual Catch Entitlement (ACE) market
Balancing actual catch with Annual Catch Entitlement (ACE) is crucial to the efficient operation of the New Zealand Quota Management System (QMS). ACE market efficiency is dependent on the existence of ACE prices that reflect all...
The recent establishment of the Galápagos Marine Reserve (GMR) presents a unique opportunity to analyze the economic implications of using zonification as a tool to manage conflicting claims to a fragile and limited resource. Recognizing that the long-term success of the GMR depends on the cooperation of all of the...
The infrared absorption spectra in the out-of-plane
bending (v₂) region of potassium nitrate were studied for
three phases. Several types of sampled were used: nujol
mulls, fused samples, and N¹⁴-N¹⁵ isotopic mixtures. The
existence of three of the reported polymorphic phases was
confirmed by the spectra. The transitions between phase...
In recent years, studies dealing with temperature regulation,
temperature sensitivity, and physiological responses to temperature
in lizards and other reptiles have increased tremendously. It is
notable that snakes have been largely ignored in such studies. This
no doubt is due to their less direct relationship to ancestral endotherms.
However, problems...
Trace metals in the aquatic environment are generally concentrated
on the surface of solid geochemical phases which eventually become incorporated
into estuarine and marine sediments. The mechanism of trace
metal concentration is believed to be adsorption with various geochemical
phases such as hydrous metal oxides, clays, and organic matter.
Metals...
Funds alloted from the Vocational Education Act of
1963, Public Law 88-210, opened up an entirely new dimension
in vocational agriculture programs throughout the
nation.
The new dimension is an amendment to the period
beginning with the Smith-Hughes Act in 1917. Up to the
time of the Vocational Education Act...
