Water excess in different phenological stages of canola cultivars.

The objective of this study was to determine the stage of development with greater sensitivity to water excess and the period of time required to compromise the emergence and grain yield components of canola. The experiments were performed in a greenhouse at the Federal University of Santa Maria and at the Farroupilha Federal Institute, Campus of São Vicente do Sul, RS during the 2015 agricultural year. The completely randomized experimental design was utilized to investigate phenological stages and periods of continuous water excess in the soil. Also, factors like percentage of emergence, emergence speed index, grain yield, number of siliques per plant, one hundred grains weight, dry matter of aerial part, silique length, number of grains per silique, and weight of 20 siliques were determined. The stages of rosette leaf formation and beginning of anthesis are the most sensitive to water excess in the soil. Water excess for 24 h is enough to reduce the emergence speed index. However, the percentage of emergence is not compromised by water excess up to 192 continuous hours. 24 h of water excess reduces the number of siliques per plant, dry matter of aerial part and grain yield of canola

MANIFEST DESTINY IN CHINA: A COMPARISON OF THE UNITED STATES AMERICAN INDIAN WARS OF THE 1800S WITH CHINA’S STRIKE HARD CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE UYGHUR MUSLIMS OF XINJIANG PROVINCE

Historically, empires have sought to subjugate or destroy target populations by any means necessary, up to and including the use of genocide. However, the proliferation of information technology has provided new ways for state-level entities to influence others without the social and political fallout associated with violent acts of imperialism. In order to address this phenomenon, this thesis examines the role of cultural imperialism in the Information Age by comparing and contrasting two case studies: the American Indian Wars and the present-day plight of the Uyghurs in Xinjiang, China. It should be noted that this thesis does not purport to illustrate a vast range of similarities between the two. Rather, very few resemblances actually exist. Among them, geographic expansionism, domestic imperialism, and forced assimilation act as the broader themes through which to compare these overt conflicts of influence. Conversely, the differences in cultures, locations, and points in history provide new opportunities to contrast the efficacy of the techniques employed in either case. This thesis finds that, while violence will likely remain a weapon of influence long into the future, cheaper, more effective options have become the preferred tools for furthering vital national interests through the suppression of opposing cultures.http://archive.org/details/manifestdestinyi1094563983Major, United States ArmyMajor, United States ArmyApproved for public release; distribution is unlimited

Torção de cólon em um felino doméstico: relato de caso

RESUMO A torção de cólon em felinos é uma patologia rara. Os principais sinais apresentados são de abdome agudo e podem levar o animal rapidamente a óbito. O presente trabalho tem o objetivo de relatar um caso de torção de cólon em um felino. Este é o primeiro relato dessa enfermidade no Brasil. O diagnóstico foi realizado por meio do histórico e de exames de imagem. O animal foi encaminhado para a cirurgia, mas, devido à gravidade e extensão das lesões intestinais, foi realizada a eutanásia
