Clovis Technology and Settlement in the American Southeast
This dissertation presents new data on Clovis site occupation, technological organization, and settlement in the American Southeast. Evidence suggests that traditionally-accepted, western-centric models do not fully explain Clovis technological characteristics and settlement patterns in the region. …

Differential use of space: An analysis of the Aubrey Clovis site.
The Aubrey Clovis site is one of the oldest late-Pleistocene sites in North America, dated to ~11,550 B.P., and contains two camps with a range of lithic debitage, numerous hearths, and excellent faunal preservation. Couched in rules of classification, a series of artifact distributions are …

Broken Bones and Cutmarks: Taphonomic Analyses and Implications for the Peopling of North America
… migration of anatomically modern Homo sapiens. Clovis technology in association with extinct Pleistocene fauna clearly identifies a New World occupation by 11,500 BP (13,410 cal BP). However, a consensus on the timing of this process has not been achieved. Older sites completely void of stone …

Implementing DSMES for Type II Diabetics in a Rural Clinic
… two nurse practitioners in a local clinic in Clovis, NM. A pre-survey was utilized to assess their current knowledge on DSMES. Once the pre-survey was completed, the participants viewed an educational PowerPoint on DSMES. Following the PowerPoint, they completed a post-survey assessing their …

Using Particle Size Analysis to Separate the Deposition of a Bonebed and Artifact at the Wenas Creek Mammoth Site
… are associated, the WCMS would qualify as a Pre-Clovis site, a title given to just a handful of proven archaeological sites in North America, though claimed for numerous more. A close interval particle size analysis was performed on 2 column samples from the WCMS with the intention of identifying …

Paleoindian technological provisioning in the western Great Basin
… have suggested that Paleoindians, represented by Clovis, Folsom, and Plano traditions, were highly mobile foragers. By contrast, "Paleoarchaic" hunter-gatherers of the Great Basin are thought to have become increasingly sedentary through time, specially adapted and tethered to diverse …

Geochemical evaluation of the Younger Dryas Boundary (YDB) impact hypothesis, El Carrizal Baja California Sur, Mexico
… Pleistocene extinction and disappearance of the Clovis Paleo-Indian culture. Evidence supporting or refuting this hypothesis has great implications for the fields of geology, paleontology, and archaeology. Our field site for testing the YDB ET impact hypothesis is located on the El Carrizal …

Effect of Column Axial Load on Skewed SMF RBS Connection Demands
<p>Steel buildings in high seismic areas often require special structural systems to transfer large lateral forces induced by earthquake accelerations. The selection of an appropriate seismic steel system (braced frame, moment frame, shear wall, etc.) is often influenced by architectural …

Paleoindian Chronology, Technology, and Lithic Resource Procurement at Nesquehoning Creek
… production and reduction strategies similar to Clovis and later Paleoindian complexes. Lithic raw material types represented in the Crowfield toolkit suggest a relatively small territorial range on the order of 50 km. An evaluation of Early and Late Paleoindian residential mobility patterns in …

To Till or Not to Till: The Question of Economic Efficiency and Tillage Systems in a Sample of Illinois Grain Farms
For farmers, estimates of changes in input expenditures as well as cost share can provide beneficial additional information in planning and budgeting activities. Marketers, confronted with the question of whether or not to segment the farmer's market with respect to tillage practice, might benefit …

Quantization of anomalous gauge theories
"We discuss the quantization of Anomalous Gauge Theories (AGT) both in the context of functional integration and canonical Hamiltonian approach. The Wess-Zumino term (WZT), which repairs gauge symmetry in AGT is discussed and its derivation is presented in the canonical approach as a consequence of …

Lactational Response of Cows Fed Condensed Corn Distillers Solubles
<p>Fifteen early lactating Holstein cows (6 multiparous and 9 primiparous) were used in a replicated 3x3 Latin square design to evaluate the effect of condensed corn distillers solubles (CCDS) in total mixe rations (TMR). Diets were control, low CCDS (5.06%), or high CCDS (10.24% of DM). All diets …
