Abstract:
Abstract Experimental plots measuring 3.6 × 9.0 m were established in a 5-yr-old stand of alfalfa at the Southwest Kansas Branch Experiment Station near Garden City. Eight treatments, including the untreated check, were replicated 3 times in a randomized complete block design. Insecticidal treatments were applied on 28 Apr using a CO2-activated backpack sprayer equipped with a 1.9-m boom. The boom was fitted with 4 hollow-cone nozzles (6x) on 48.3-cm centers. Treatments were applied at a pressure of 2.1 kg/cm2 and at a rate of 165.5 liters/hectare. Plants were in the vegetative growth stage and 30 cm tall. Temperature at application (early morning) was 8.9°C and reached a high of 28.9°C during the day. Winds were recorded at 0-2.5 km/h. Larval densities were determined 3 and 7 days posttreatment by collecting 20 stems/ plot and extracting larvae by using Berlese funnels. Rainfall amounts of 0.25 and 0.18 cm were recorded on 3 and 4 May, respectively.

Abstract:
Abstract The efficacy of 7 insecticides for the control of alfalfa weevil larvae was tested at the Southwest Kansas Branch Experiment Station near Garden City, KS. Plots measuring 3.6 m X 9.0 m were arranged in a randomized complete block design with 4 replications. Treatments were applied on 11 Apr when alfalfa was 25.4 cm tall. Insecticides were applied using a C02-activated, 1.8 cm boom sprayer fitted with hollow-cone nozzles (6x) centered on 48.3 cm. All treatments were applied at a pressure of 2.1 kg/cm2 and at a rate of 165.5 liters/ha. Temperature at application (early morning) was 10.0°C. Larval densities were determined from 20 stems randomly selected from each plot on each of 4 sampling dates. Larvae were extracted from the foliage by shaking the plant stems against the side of a white plastic bucket prior to counting. Total rainfall from the time of application to final posttreatment evaluation was 1.50 cm.

Abstract:
Abstract This test was conducted in an irrigated field of sunflower located at the Southwest Kansas Branch Experiment Station near Garden City, KS. Seven insecticidal treatments and 1 untreated check were replicated 4 times in a randomized complete block design. Individual plots were 4 rows (3 m) wide by 12 m in length with 1.52 m separating blocks. Plots were irrigated and cultivated as needed. Insecticides were broadcast over-the-row using a backpack CO2-activated sprayer equipped with hollow-cone sprayer nozzles (TX6), The sprayer was calibrated to deliver 165.5 liters of finished material per hectare at an operating pressure of 2.1 kg/cm2. All treatments were applied on 23 Jul at 30% bloom and again on 30 Jul at 100% bloom. Temperatures at application (early morning) were 18.9�C and 17.8�C on 23 Jul and 30 Jul, respectively. Larval densities were determined by dissecting and examining 6 heads randomly selected from the center 2 rows of each plot. Heads were sampled 2 weeks after the first insecticide application. Total rainfall from the time of first application to posttreatment evaluation was 1.50 cm. Plots were not harvested for seed yield determinations because bird depredation of the maturing seed prevented reliable yield comparisons.

Abstract:
Orthodontics is an important part of the 4 year BDS program. According to the American Association of Orthodontists, orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics are defined as the area of dentistry that includes the diagnosis, prevention, interception, guidance, and correction of mal-relationships of the developing or mature orofacial structures. (“2012 AAO Glossary_0,” n.d.) This branch of dentistry deals with irregularities of teeth and improper jaw relationships. Malocclusion is known as the improper positioning of teeth when the jaws are closed. The goals of orthodontic therapy are to improve the smile and facial appearance (resulting in improvement in an individual’s social well-being and quality of life), obtain optimal occlusion, and establish normal oral function (Ackerman 2012). Due to a growing esthetic awareness among the general population orthodontics is gaining popularity as a profession. Hence dentists need to be trained well in this field to cater to the growing needs of the general population. There are 2 types of training offered in the field of orthodontics, Postgraduate training, and undergraduate training. A graduate must be competent enough to diagnose and treat minor orthodontic cases as well as know when is the right time for referral to a specialist. If a general dental practitioner is well trained in the field of orthodontics, specialists only have to deal with complex ones which decreases the workload of the specialist. The level of the graduate thus should be such that they must be able to deal with minor orthodontic cases as a general dental practitioner. There was a study conducted at the University of Missouri Kansas city about how well fresh graduates are prepared to deal with orthodontic cases. (“No Title,” 2016). There has been no such study done in Pakistan. However, there have been studies conducted on how confident graduates felt about practicing unsupervised. The researches revealed that orthodontics was the field where the students felt least confident. (“Preparedness for practice,” 2011). No such research has been done in Pakistan. The purpose of this research is to find out if the fresh dental graduates of Pakistan are competent enough to deal with orthodontic cases without supervision. The level of training of the undergraduates is accessed to check if it is according to the international standards and if Pakistani graduates meet the international competency need in the subject of orthodontics. This research would help identify the voids in the training of graduates which would create a basis for further research on this topic and the revision of the dental curriculum.

Abstract:
Heavy rain with Typhoon 18 threatened the Nabari River Basin, Kansai region, with inundation early on the morning of October 8, 2009. The Nabari River is a tributary of the Yodo river basin that contains Osaka and Kyoto and runs through Nabari City, which is a residential zone a commutable distance from Osaka city. In the upper reaches of the Nabari, there are three multipurpose dams – Shorenji Dam, Hinachi Dam, and Murou Dam – that are operated by the Kizugawa Integrated Dam Control and Management Office (KIDCMO), a branch office of the Japan Water Agency (JWA). Since it rained heavily downstream from the three dams, regular operation of the dams complying with given flood control regulations appeared unable to save Nabari City from inundation. The JWA and Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) therefore conducted collaborative operation of the three dams to avoid inundating the city. In this case, flood control operation of the three dams commenced at an early stage before inflow reached defined flood discharge in consideration of the water level of the Nabari River, rainfall conditions, and the capacity of reservoirs. During operation, discharge from dams was changed in a timely manner and appropriately through collaborative operation of the three dams in order to maximize the effectiveness of all flood control capacities of reservoirs based on the latest rainfall forecast technology and runoff analysis. The use of improved rainfall forecast technology and runoff analysis models enabled effective application of flexible operation protocols. It is estimated that this operation has resulted in a 1.5 m decrease in the water level at the Nabari design control point and saved approximately 1,200 households from inundation. Considering recent climate change, it is possible to have extreme rainfall more often. The proof of the adaptability of this flexible operation is quite meaningful not only for flood damage mitigation in the downstream but also for future prospects of flood control by dams.

Abstract:
This chapter chronicles the long “Red Summer” and persistent racial violence throughout the 1920s. With America's entry into World War I, black populations swelled in response to labor shortages, thus precipitating racial conflict over jobs and housing between white residents of northern industrial cities and the black newcomers. These tensions would culminate in the “Red Summer,” a season of race riots, conflagrations, and other types of spectacular violence. Though the wartime surge in violence would subside after 1921, racial prejudice and violence continued on. Despite these setbacks, however, black resistance likewise persisted; and this period marks the ascent of a new generation of civil rights activists, as well as a few other notable milestones such as the Thurman-Watts v. Board of Education of Coffeyville and Brown v. Board of Education decisions and the establishment of the Kansas City branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).

Abstract:
In the tumultuous year after Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination, 29-year-old Pete O’Neal became inspired by reading The Autobiography of Malcolm X and founded the Kansas City branch of the Black Panther Party (BPP). The same year, FBI director J. Edgar Hoover declared the BPP was the “greatest threat to the internal security of the country.” This book is the gripping story of O’Neal, one of the influential members of the movement, who now lives in Africa—unable to return to the United States but refusing to renounce his past. Arrested in 1969 and convicted for transporting a shotgun across state lines, O’Neal was free on bail pending his appeal when Fred Hampton, chairman of the Illinois chapter of the BPP, was assassinated by the police. O’Neal and his wife fled the U.S. for Algiers. Eventually they settled in Tanzania, where they continue the social justice work of the Panthers through community and agricultural programs and host study-abroad programs for American students. Paul Magnarella—a veteran of the United Nations Criminal Tribunals and O’Neal’s attorney during his appeals process from 1997–2001—describes his unsuccessful attempts to overturn what he argues was a wrongful conviction. He lucidly reviews the evidence of judicial errors, the prosecution’s use of a paid informant as a witness, perjury by both the prosecution’s key witness and a federal agent, as well as other constitutional violations. He demonstrates how O’Neal was denied justice during the height of the COINTELPRO assault on black activists in the U.S.

Abstract:
This chapter explores how the rise of digital technologies enables new manifestations of racialization in financial services, using Google Fiber’s promises of low-cost high-speed Internet services in Nashville and Kansas City as examples. Akin to redlining in the lending market, Black and Brown communities may experience digital forms of redlining due to limited access to technologies such as high-speed Internet and smartphones that exist alongside the rising number of bank branch closures. At the nexus of financial and digital divides, banks’ overreliance on fintech can reproduce and amplify marginalization. Not only can fintech concentrate wealth, the computer algorithms on which fintech is built can further stitch whiteness into the financial system.
