Supplementation for the Cow Herd

Supplementation programs are very much a part of our cow-calf program. The type of supplementation may vary throughout the year as well as from year to year. A good manager knows the type of supplement that his herd needs. Supplements are available in many forms from commercial distributors and can consist of many types of feeds, minerals and vitamins. Many producers choose to develop their own supplements utilizing feeds produced on their ranch or that can be purchased locally. A supplementation program may be defined as a program which provides the difference between the nutrients required by livestock and the nutrients available in their major food supply. For a producer to evaluate the needs of his herd, he must know the nutrient requirements for his cattle and the nutrient availability in the feed supply

An Imperialist at bay: Leo Amery at the India Office, 1940 - 1945

Pressure for Indian independence had been building up throughout the early decades of the twentieth century, initially through the efforts of the Indian National Congress, but also later, when matters were complicated by an increasingly vocal Muslim League. When, in May 1940, Leo Amery was appointed by Winston Churchill as Secretary of State for India, an already difficult assignment had been made more challenging by the demands of war.This thesis evaluates the extent to which Amery’s ultimate failure to move India towards self-government was due to factors beyond his control, or derived from his personal shortcomings and errors of judgment. Although there has to be some analysis of politics in wartime India, the study is primarily of Amery’s attempts at managing an increasingly insurgent dependency, entirely from his metropolitan base. Much of the research is concentrated on his success, or otherwise, in influencing Churchill and diehard Conservatives, who wanted Britain to retain India at any cost, but also Labour colleagues in the coalition, who were much more closely aligned with Congress.Inevitably, Amery’s relationships with his two Viceroys, Lord Linlithgow and Viscount Wavell are central to this investigation. In different ways, his dealings with the dour, inflexible Linlithgow and the surprisingly radical, if irritable, Wavell varied between the cordial and the frosty, yet in both cases he regarded them with a considerable degree of intellectual snobbery. That said, the thesis demonstrates that he was unable to convince these colleagues in Delhi that the man on the spot did not always know best.For many years Amery had been irked by American opposition to his cherished principle of imperial preference, and their overall dislike of the perceived colonialism implicit in the British Empire. Once the USA had entered the war, transatlantic attempts to interfere in matters in India increased, further damaging Amery’s efforts to promote constitutional reform. It was all the more painful for him that his desire to counter these ideas was compromised by the need to appease American public opinion in the interests of the war effort.In making a balanced judgment on Amery at the India Office it is unwise to look only at his efforts to broker a constitutional settlement that ultimately foundered with the failure of the Simla conference in the summer of 1945. There is ample evidence of better outcomes in administrative and practical areas. From his early achievement in moderating the terms in which Congress could be prosecuted until his later successes in obtaining grain to alleviate famine he revealed a tenacity, and courage that could, on occasion, overcome the suspicion that he often generated amongst his peers

Synthetic vision display evaluation studies

The goal of this research was to help us understand the display requirements for a synthetic vision system for the High Speed Civil Transport (HSCT). Four experiments were conducted to examine the effects of different levels of perceptual cue complexity in displays used by pilots in a flare and landing task. Increased levels of texture mapping of terrain and runway produced mixed results, including harder but shorter landings and a lower flare initiation altitude. Under higher workload conditions, increased texture resulted in an improvement in performance. An increase in familiar size cues did not result in improved performance. Only a small difference was found between displays using two patterns of high resolution texture mapping. The effects of increased perceptual cue complexity on performance was not as strong as would be predicted from the pilot's subjective reports or from related literature. A description of the role of a synthetic vision system in the High Speed Civil Transport is provide along with a literature review covering applied research related to perceptual cue usage in aircraft displays

Suppressing Depression: Raising awareness for depression in teens

About 13.3% of the U.S. population aged 12 to 17 has been diagnosed with at least one major depressive episode [1]. 14.3% of the DC population suffers from diagnosed depression [8]. It is important to note that most people with depression don’t seek clinical help. Many factors lead to depression among teens and adults including poverty, unemployment, lack of access to health care, and genetics. DC is one of the most segregated places in the U.S. Employment rates, wages, parks, and museums are deeply segregated resources within different wards. Wards 5, 7, and 8 have the highest rates of depression among adolescents in comparison to wards 2 and 3. This is due to the lack of resources invested in wards 7 and 8 compared to wards 2 and 3 [1]. In this study, we evaluated resource availability in the DC wards impacts the mental health of adolescents. This showed us which areas in DC are greatly focused on and prioritized when it comes to the well-being of people. In our research we found that in wards 7 and 8, where poverty and unemployment are the highest, depression rates are also increased [1]. In wards 2 and 3, where employment rates and wages are high, depression rates are decreased[1]. Our main goal is to raise awareness of how these factors impact the mental well-being of adolescence as well as advocate for equity.https://hsrc.himmelfarb.gwu.edu/dchapp/1015/thumbnail.jp
