Cheiridium tetrophthalmum Daday, a new synonym of Larca lata (Hansen) (Pseudoscorpiones, Larcidae)

Cheiridium tetrophthalmum Daday, 1889 is removed from the synonymy of Geogarypus minor (L. Koch, 1873), and treated as a junior synonym of Larca lata (Hansen, 1884). The distribution of Larca lata and Geogarypus minor is documented, and L. lata is recorded from Hungary for the first time

Stenochrus portoricensis new to the Czech Republic (Schizomida, Hubbardiidae)

A schizomid, Stenochrus portoricensis Chamberlin, 1922 (family Hubbardiidae), was collected in a greenhouse in Brno. This is the first discovery of a schizomid from the Czech Republic

Experimental Potentials for the XΣ+2 and AΠ2 States of NaHe

Experimental potentials for the XΣ+2 and AΠ2 states of the NaHe molecule are presented. The potentials are generated from the temperature dependence of the red wing of the Na resonance line perturbed by He. For the AΠ2 state an unexpectedly large value is obtained for De=480(50) cm−1at Re=4.4(2)a0. The physical basis for this result, which indicates an important role for the internal structure of the rare gas in determining the repulsive part of the alkali-rare-gas interaction, is discussed

Review of \u3ci\u3eTheodore Roosevelt in the Badlands: A Young Politician\u27s Quest for Recovery in the American West\u3c/i\u3e by Roger L. Di Silvestro

Biographers of Theodore Roosevelt have long been aware of the significance of the time he spent in the Badlands of Dakota Territory during the 1880s. After an initial visit in 1883, Roosevelt returned the following year, this time overwhelmed with grief. Earlier that year he had experienced unimaginable personal tragedy when his beloved wife, Alice, and his mother died on the very same day. A few months later TR returned to western Dakota by train, bound for a landscape he hoped would bring him solace, healing, and renewal. Over the next several years, Roosevelt returned to the Badlands for weeks or even months at a time, relishing the oddly shaped yet magnificently beautiful region around the Little Missouri River. Here he found plentiful game-deer, elk, pronghorn, bighorn sheep, cougar, bear, and grouse. He arrived just in time to hunt the bison, which had been hunted nearly to extinction in prior years. On his hunting forays he was often accompanied by Bill Sewall and Wilmot Dow, onetime guides from Maine whom he hired to join him in Dakota. His hunting experiences in Dakota awakened in him an awareness of the importance of conserving game animals, and in 1887 he helped found the Boone and Crockett Club, the oldest wildlife conservation organization in North America
