Enforceability of an Agreement to Submit to a Non-Arbitral Form of Dispute Resolution: The Rise of Mediation and Neutral Fact-Finding - Annapolis Professional Firefighters Local 1926 v. City of Annapolis, The

Agreements between employers and unions frequently specify a form of alternate dispute resolution to be utilized in the event of a future dispute. Annapolis addresses the issue of the enforceability of a written agreement to submit future disputes to some form of non-arbitral resolution such as mediation or neutral-fact finding

Laurence Coffelt: Cassoday, 1910-1976

Long before Laurence Coffelt, a Kansas farm boy from the Flint Hills, was born, the last of the Longhorn cattle had made their journey north up the old Chisholm Trail. Deep ruts of the historic cattle trails had been cross-fenced with barbed wire and plowed under by the generation in which Coffelt lived, but some Old Timers still lived who remembered the Open Range

Influence of turbulence on surface reaeration

Some numerical methods are briefly described for determining vertical diffusion coefficients as a function of vertical coordinate in a turbulence vessel where there are no net velocities. It is planned to use this turbulence vessel and these numerical methods to study in detail the mechanics of diffusion of a substance (analogous to oxygen) which is absorbed at the free surface. A hot-film anemometer is to be used to make direct measurement of turbulence parameters affecting the diffusion process. The anemometer has been calibrated in water which was in solid body rotation. Some of t>he difficulties experienced with the hot-film sensor and the corrective measures which were used are discussed. Preliminary diffusion tests have been made in the turbulence vessel where turbulence is generated by vertically oscillating screens made of expanded metal. Some values of the vertical diffusion coefficient have been calculated from the data for two of these preliminary runs. Plans call for making more detailed diffusion studies and for making direct turbulence measurements in studying surface reaeration.U.S. Department of the InteriorU.S. Geological SurveyOpe

Frederic Remington: Kansas Days

In April of 1883 a young Frederic Remington bought a 160-acre sheep ranch in Butler County near the tiny settlement of Plum Grove, close to today’s Whitewater. This is a short story on the famous artist, Frederic Remington

Scanning Electron Microscopy of Microcorrosion Casts: Applications in Ophthalmologic Research

In light of the complicated nature of the ocular vasculature, it has been difficult to define the normal ocular anatomy by reference to two-dimensional tissue sections. Since it provides three-dimensional replicas, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of vascular corrosion casts has therefore been an invaluable addition to the study of ocular vasculature. This technique also often permits identification of a normal vessel\u27s arterial, venous, or capillary nature by its surface features. In addition, this technique is finding increased use in defining anatomical features of human vascular disease and is especially well suited for the study of experimental neovascularization as it relates to the eye. This paper reviews the application of SEM of microscopic casts to the study of normal and diseased ocular vessels, as well as the contribution of this method to studies of experimental ocular neovascularization
