Geology and mineral deposits of the Julian District, San Diego County, California
The Julian region, in the central part of San Diego County, California, includes the Julian, Banner, several other less important mining districts, and the Stonewall Mine on the Cuyamaca land grant. In addition to being one of the few areas in the Peninsular Range of southern and Baja California that have yielded notable amounts of gold, it constitutes geologically a diagnostic part of the range because of the land forms, structures, and rock formations exposed. Discovered in 1870, the Julian and Banner districts produced in the next several years 50 a ton. This came from narrow veins which were only in a few instances mined below the water-table. The Stonewall Mine, worked continually from 1870 until shut down in 1893, produced $2,000,000 from a large ore body extracted to a depth of 600 feet. The Julian and Banner districts had a brief mining revival during the '90s

The Scandalmonger: Julian Tuwim
The article attempts to argue that Tuwim’s personality and work can be explained by looking into his early childhood and writing. It is definitely the period inadequately explored by critics. The author discusses key moments in the poet’s biography and most crucial elements of his work, paying particular attention to controversies triggered by some texts and themes in his writing. The article also focuses on the analysis of conflicts that Tuwim suffered from in his life. Tuwim’s strategy of provocation is also taken under scrutiny. The article presents Tuwim’s poetry as a lasting contribution to Polish literature and as a body of work which manages to resist ideological readings.Zadanie „Stworzenie anglojęzycznych wersji wydawanych publikacji” finansowane w ramach umowy nr 948/P-DUN/2016 ze środków Ministra Nauki i Szkolnictwa Wyższego przeznaczonych na działalność upowszechniającą naukę

The Madden Julian Oscillation and its relationship with rainfall in Queensland
The Madden Julian Oscillation is a large-scale atmospheric phenomenon that is generated above the tropical Indian Ocean. It is associated with large convective systems that propagate eastward across the Pacific Ocean. Since it is an atmospheric event limited to the equatorial domain, it was believed that it has little effect on non-tropical regions. However, recent research found correlations between the positioning of the active Madden Julian Oscillation phase along the Equator and rainfall events northeast Australia. The correlations were significant throughout Queensland. The phenomenon is subject to a study by climate scientists at four Australian institutions. It aims to develop a simple predictive tool of rainfall events that are linked with the active phase of the Madden Julian Oscillation and that is applicable throughout Queensland and possible beyond. The outcome of this research is to be linked with agricultural production systems model in order to help Queensland farmers to better time planting and harvesting, as well as scheduling of contractors whose operations might be delayed by rain
Julian Schwinger: Source Theory and the UCLA Years--- From Magnetic Charge to the Casimir Effect
Julian Schwinger began the construction of Source Theory in 1966 in response
to the then apparent failure of quantum field theory to describe strong
interactions, the physical remoteness of renormalization, and the utility of
effective actions in describing chiral dynamics. I will argue that the source
theory development was not really so abrupt a break with the past as Julian may
have implied, for the ideas and techniques in large measure were present in his
work at least as early as 1951. Those techniques and ideas are still of
fundamental importance to theoretical physics, so much so that the designation
``source theory'' has become superfluous. Julian did a great deal of innovative
physics during the last 30 years of his life, and I will touch on some of the
major themes. The impact of much of this work is not yet apparent. (Invited
