Letter from Junius E. Beal to John Muir, 1913 Sep 10.

[letterhead]Ann Arbor10 Sept., \u2713Mr. John MuirSan FranciscoCal.Dear Sir:-I appreciate your sending me that circular letter about the Hetch Hetchy vally and have written Senator Townsend expressing the sentiment of feeling against the grab.You will do a great work if you can stop it. I trust you may succeed, for it would be an outrage to have that beautiful valley spoiled.Yours very truly,Junius E. Bea

AN ANALYSIS OF HOUSEHOLD CONSUMPTION OF RABBIT MEAT IN THE SOUTHERN UNITED STATES

Results from a random sample of 1421 households in the southern United States suggest that the most likely consumers of rabbit meat are men, non-college graduates, those with household incomes at or below $50,000, households with children, and Louisiana residents. The current market for rabbit meat is small. However, the meat is lower in fat, cholesterol, and calories, and higher in protein than beef, chicken, turkey, or pork, and these desirable nutritional attributes may spark future demand.Food Consumption/Nutrition/Food Safety,

Fabrication of X-Graded H13 and Cu Powder Mix Using High Power Pulsed Nd:YAG Laser

The manufacturing of Functionally Graded Material (FGM) parts using Solid Free Form manufacturing technologies has been carried out since early 1980. At present, most of the powder manufacturing techniques are being focused on layering powder with different powder blend compositions with Z gradients (graded in direction of layer build). Although, there are a few researchers working on multi powder feeder and deposition system, the study of laser fusion of the deposited powder (by a powder deposition system) is minimum or not known to date. Consequently, the manufacturing of functionally graded structures is still geometry limited. This work was focused on the manufacturing of X-graded (graded along the powder bed plane) specimens with H13 tool steel and Cu mix. Five bimodal powder blends were used with a multi-container feed hopper to spread powder layers for the selective laser fusion of the powder. The powder was fused using a high power Nd:YAG pulsed laser using a specific scanning strategy to reduce porosity. Specimens were produced with graded Cu within the H13 matrix. The specimens were analysed for dimensional accuracy, microstructure, porosity, cracks and micro hardness of the FGM.Mechanical Engineerin

Scirpus validus and S. acutus: A Question of Distinctness

An analysis of 32 populations of bulrushes in the Scirpus validus-acutus complex growing in Itasca State Park and prairie ponds to the west indicates that most of the populations are referable to neither S. validus nor S. acutus but, rather, are intermediate in morphology. Further, the supposedly characteristic features by which the two nomenclatural species have been identified are erratically correlated
