    Understanding Basic Mineral and Vitamin Nutrition

    Get PDF
    In a typical cow-calf operation in the Great Plains, the nutritional focus is on supplying protein and energy to the cows. That focus is appropriate since these two nutrients comprise the major portion of the annual feed cost of maintaining the cow herd. Recent concerns regarding trace mineral deficiencies has resulted in more producers now asking questions about the mineral and vitamin portion of the cow herd nutrition program. The common sense approach to supplying minerals and vitamins to beef cows should be very similar to the one used in supplying energy and protein to the cows. In other words, determine the animals requirements and then attempt to, in the most economical and efficient manner possible, try to meet those requirements. What minerals and vitamins need to be considered? Let\u27s examine the key ones

    The Walled Fortress: An Autoethnography Of An International Student Who Became An Esl Educator

    Get PDF
    Through autoethnographic research, I conduct an intimate investigation into my experience as a sojourner college student in West Germany to see how my emotive response to that experience and its associated sense of self work to generate a deeper and more empathetic understanding of my role as an English as a second language (ESL) professional. I employ a layered account whereby I weave personal narrative, poetry, and sketching into academic writing so as to reach the emotive core of the research. I explore complex discriminatory relations in the classroom and beyond and learn how I as an ESL professional have played an active role in perpetuating power imbalances. I demonstrate the emotional process of noticing my privileged position and how a fresh mindfulness of power relations in the classroom can affect teacher instruction and reflection

    Luteinizing hormone release and plasma metabolites in mature, ovariectomized beef cows fed various lipid diets

    Get PDF
    Feeding rumen-escape lipid or soybean oil in a range supplement to beef cow resulted in elevated blood cholesterol and enhanced luteinizing hormone (LH) release compared to a control (milo and soybean meal) supplement. Cholesterol was elevated (P<.01) within 14 d of lipid feeding. The amplitude of each LH pulse and maximal pulse height were greater (P<.05) when cows were fed high-lipid diets. The positive influence of high-lipid diets on reproductive function may be explained in part by enhanced LH release

    Effects from using Ralgro sequentially on sexual development of bulls and on growth and carcass characteristics of steers and bulls

    Get PDF
    Forty-nine Simmental X Hereford and Hereford calves (24 bulls and 25 steers) were used to study the effect of Ralgro on growth, carcass traits, sex drive, sperm production, and development of sex organs. Approximately half of the bulls and half of the steers received a total of four 36-mg. Ralgro implants, one implant each 100 days (approximately 28, 128, 228 and 328 days of age). Implanted bulls and steers had higher average daily gains; however, the effect was greater in steers than bulls. Ralgro impaired all facets of sexual development measured. None of the implanted bulls could have been used for breeding purposes as yearlings

    Neoclassical Pioneers: Neoclassicism Before Stravinsky

    Get PDF
    For a century and a half composers have been inspired by the classic works of composers from the Baroque and Classical periods. Composers who returned to the sounds and structures of the classics and used them as a model were called neoclassicists and created a new genre of music often identified as neoclassicism. It is commonly understood that the composer Igor Stravinsky and his contemporaries created this genre of music in the 1920s. However, Stravinsky would not have been able to promote this genre of music without the initial efforts of pioneer composers. In fact, composers were experimenting with neoclassicism even in the late 1800s and through the 1910s. Some of these composers include Edvard Grieg, Maurice Ravel, and Jean Sibelius. The neoclassicism genre spans a wider time frame than usually understood, and would not have become a genre in the 1920s without these pioneer composers
