The role of estradiol- 17β, progesterone and prostaglandin F₂α (PGF₂α) in altering contractility of uterine vascular smooth muscle was investigated. A segment of uterine artery (3. 5 cm) supplying each uterine horn of ewes and heifers were removed at necropsy and perfused with oxygenated Krebs Henseleit Solution prior to initiating...
The American philosopher and literary critic Kenneth Burke was an "ideologist" (although he never called himself this, and added to that, he spent most of his life avoiding the Marxist term of ideology to describe human "systems" of ideas). Burke instead used the terms "orientation," "rationalization," "perspective." "critical perspective," "way...
With increased resource development on the western Arctic coastal plain of Alaska (especially within the oil extraction industry) it is important to understand the basic life history attributes of whitefish stocks in the region in order to ensure appropriate management. These fish are a crucial part of subsistence harvests for...
The purpose of this dissertation was to explore the relationship between the personal spiritual and religious practices of counselor supervisors and their wellness and spiritual competence. A cross sectional survey design was used to collect information about the frequency and importance of both spiritual and religious practices, scores on the...
Salmonid populations in the Pacific Northwest are at historic lows and many
populations continue to decline. Previous studies have linked salmonid declines to land
use through degradation of in-stream physical habitat, but few of these studies have taken
geology into consideration. This study relates habitat parameters known to be important...
The Tillamook and Kilchis subbasins of the Tillamook Bay watershed (Oregon Coast Range) have differences in geology and land use history and, therefore, varied environmental conditions that could affect fish assemblages. Fifty-two randomly selected wadeable stream reaches in these two subbasins were surveyed for stream habitat and fish assemblage composition...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are grown using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). A modified radio frequency (RF) parallel-plate plasma etching system serves as the growth reactor. The effects of process parameters, including temperature, pressure, and C2H2:NH3 ratio, are studied. CNTs are grown on glass substrates with Al underlayers and Ni...
