Abstract:
The aim of the present study is to characterize the productive capability of Utrerana and to compare the relationships among parameters determining the internal and external quality of the egg, through canonical correlation analysis. A flock of 68 Utrerana hens and a control group of Leghorn hens (n = 17) were housed individually to allow individual identification of eggs and for the assessment of egg quality characteristics. Almost all variables showed differences when both breeds were compared, except for white height, yolk diameter, yolkL* and yolk pH (p > 0.05). Only minor diameter, whi

Abstract:
Herein we examined the effects of yolk size and ovulation order on the fertilisation of yolks within double-yolked (DY) duck eggs. Single-yolked (SY) duck eggs had high fertility (89.98%), whereas in DY duck eggs fertility was low (51.9% yolks). The yolks closer to the airspace (Yolk 1) in DY eggs had higher fertility (68.82% vs 34.98% for Yolk 2; P < 0.001). When only one of the two yolks was fertilised, Yolk 1 was fertilised in 99.12% of those eggs. Yolk 1 is presumed to be the first ovulated. The higher fertility of Yolk 1 is consistent with a primacy effect where the first ovulation has

<em>Abstract.</em>—Gametes of green sturgeon <em>Acipenser medirostris</em> (caught in the Klamath River, California) and farm-reared white sturgeon <em>A. transmontanus</em> were obtained using hormonal induction of ovulation and spermiation. The offspring of one female in each species were reared in the laboratory, to compare their development and growth. Green and white sturgeon embryos had similar rates of development and hatched after 169 h and 176 h, respectively, at incubation temperature 15.7 ± 0.2°C. Embryos of both species exhibited similar holoblastic development and passed through 36 stages characteristic of acipenserids. Green sturgeon fertilization and hatching rates were 41.2% and 28.0%, compared with 95.4% and 82.1% for the white sturgeon. Larval survival to 45 d (metamorphosis) was 93.3% in green and 92.1% in white sturgeon. Newly hatched green sturgeon (length 13.7 ± 0.4 mm, mean ± SD) were larger and less pigmented, compared with white sturgeon. They had large ovoid yolk sacs and did not exhibit pelagic behavior that was observed in white sturgeon. The onset of exogenous feeding in green sturgeon occurred at age 10–15 d and length 24.0 ± 0.5 mm, and metamorphosis was completed at age 45 d and length 74.4 ± 5.9 mm (rearing temperature 18.5 ± 0.2°C). Weight and length of green sturgeon larvae and juveniles were considerably greater than in white sturgeon at each sampling time, but the relative growth rate and weight-length relationship were similar in both species. This suggests an effect of larger egg size and maternal yolk supply on the growth of green sturgeon. We conclude that green sturgeon differs from the white sturgeon in their reproductive strategy and, potentially, reproductive habitat.

Abstract.—The fishery for spiny dogfish <em>Squalus acanthias </em>in Washington State has been ongoing for over a century. Management efforts have historically been limited and recent interest in increasing management efforts has led to renewed interest in the biology of the species. This project was undertaken to aid in management by describing the reproductive cycle of the dogfish in Puget Sound. Reproductive tracts were sampled from 170 male and 358 female dogfish from the catch of a commercial trawler over one year. Size at 50% maturity was 89.9 cm for females and 74.1 cm for males (total length extended). Reproductive stages were developed for adult females based on the proportion of yolk absorbed by the developing embryo. Size, weight, and appearance changes in the reproductive tract for both males and females throughout maturation and reproduction are described. There did not appear to be a significant seasonality to the reproductive timing, in that the onset of pregnancy and pupping were observed year round, however, peaks in activity were observed in December for the onset of pregnancy and October for pupping.

Abstract:
<em>Abstract</em>.—Paddlefish <em>Polyodon spathula </em>are among the largest and longest lived of the freshwater fishes (e.g., more than 2.2 m long; 72 kg; 30 years old) and can be distinguished by the presence of a large mouth and a long, paddle-shaped snout. Smooth skin, small eyes, a large, tapering operculum flap, bluish- gray to black coloration dorsally, and a deeply forked heterocercal caudal fin all serve to distinguish paddlefish from other species. Paddlefish become sexually mature and spawn at a later age than many other freshwater fishes; males mature at an earlier age than females, but maturity varies by latitude. Male paddlefish typically spawn each year, but spawning periodicity may be variable for females. Paddlefish spawn over gravel or other hard surfaces and require specific photoperiod, water temperature, and water flow for successful spawning. Paddlefish are relatively fecund (9,000–26,000 eggs per kilogram of body weight); mature eggs range from about 2.0–4.0 mm in diameter, and time from egg fertilization to hatching is directly related to water temperature. Optimum temperature for hatching is about 18_C. Newly hatched larvae average about 8.5 mm total length (TL) and are passive drifters until they are about 17 mm long when the yolk sac has been absorbed and the larvae begin active feeding on zooplankton and insects. Paddlefish complete fin ray development at 145–160 mm TL; at this size, they are considered juveniles and are similar in appearance to adults. Few paddlefish reach the maximum known age; instead, the median age for most populations is 5–8 years and maximum age is 14–18 years. Paddlefish growth seems to be directly related to the length of the growing season and food abundance. Generally, paddlefish length increases rapidly for about the first 5 years. After 5 years, paddlefish weight increases rapidly and may double during this time. Paddlefish feed primarily on zooplankton but occasionally consume small insects, insect larvae, and small fish. Traditionally, paddlefish inhabited slow-moving waters of side channels and river-lakes. In regulated rivers, paddlefish congregate where current velocities are reduced. In large rivers, paddlefish tend to congregate in the deep waters, usually selecting areas with depths greater than 3 m and current velocities less than 0.5 m/s. Further, paddlefish are highly mobile and make extensive movements within a system. Most of this movement is random, but paddlefish also make extensive nonrandom movements in spring during upstream migration to spawning areas. Some aspects of paddlefish life history and biology make them highly vulnerable to human activities. High prices for paddlefish roe or flesh periodically have stimulated fishing pressure and overexploitation followed by rapid declines in some populations. Dredging, flow manipulation, and the construction of dams have altered much of the traditional paddlefish habitat. Increasing levels of recreational and commercial boat traffic may also contribute to the mortality of paddlefish. Understanding and considering paddlefish biology and ecology can contribute to scientifically sound stewardship of all paddlefish populations, whether management is for conserving healthy populations or restoring decimated stocks.

About eight months after Antonín Dvořák became director of Jeannette Thurber’s National Conservatory of Music in New York, he weighed in publicly on the question of American musical identity and argued that African American vernacular music (or “negro melodies”) should become the foundation of a national classical style. The New York Herald, which first printed his remarks, stoked a months-long debate that exposed deep-seated anti-Black racism throughout the country’s classical music industry as many musicians rejected the Bohemian’s suggestions outright. Dvořák remained supportive of African American music and musicians but did not fully understand the political implications of his positions.

Full text
Abstract:
Between 1820 and 1860, New York City experienced phenomenal economic growth that enlarged and enriched the urban upper class. Rapid growth brought in newcomers like John Jacob Astor, introduced new sources of merit, and put enormous weight on the pursuit of business success and on the accumulation of wealth. Merchants became distinct and self-conscious group who were now on top of the urban status hierarchy. The increased emphasis on wealth and enterprise weakened much of the old opposition to materialism, but anti-materialism did not so much disappear as become reactive to business dominance, with members of the existing upper class reacting to nouveau riches by stressing their own refinement, learning, family history, and so forth. Two key characteristics of the New York City upper class surfaced in this period. One was internal complexity. As the upper class became larger and wealthier, multiple and partially competing ways of belonging to it arose, and by the 1850s it had split into different economic and social factions. The second was a permanent malleability. The dynamic urban economy would cause the upper class to experience recurring social and cultural changes and meant that from now on the relationship that the upper class had with the city and with other social groups would repeatedly shift.

Abstract:
This chapter, “An Athenian Interlude,” analyzes a major turning point in Callas’s life associated with her move, at age thirteen, from New York City to Athens. In Athens, she experienced poverty, personal humiliation, and, during the World War II years, threats to her life. But her singing benefited from the strong mentorship she received from Elvira de Hidalgo, which helped launch her operatic career. Callas’s success as a singer with the Greek National Opera fueled resentment among her older and more established colleagues who envied her talent and resented being dethroned by a mere teenager who spoke Greek with an American accent. Poverty and conflicted relations at home with her mother and sister failed to compensate Callas for hostility at work. A significant gain in weight further undermined her self-confidence. Her experiences during the seven years spent in Athens exacerbated the split between Callas, the self-assured artist, and Maria, the vulnerable young woman.

During the wide-ranging conversation, Schrader reflects on his filmography, weighs in on the validity of the auteur theory, offers insight into his approach to writing and directing, draws distinctions between being a film artist and a film critic, and tells interesting stories from his life in the cinema. He discusses his most important contributions to film, including the screenplay for Taxi Driver, his stylistic evolution beginning with American Gigolo, and his celebrated film First Reformed. He also provides trenchant observations about the state of the cinema and how the film business has changed over time, insights offered with his typically unvarnished candor.

Abstract:
<p>Yachihe Bridge is a record‐breaking cable‐stayed bridge with 800m steel truss deck in the main span. As the bridge side spans are limited in size due to environmental constraints, 220m concrete decks are the optimized solutions for the side spans to balance the weight of steel truss deck in the main span. The joint of concrete deck and steel truss deck is one of the most complex points of the bridge, as it bears the maximum axial force and the structural cross sections, rigidities and material properties are changed at this position. This paper mainly presents the detailed design and

<p>The present paper describes developments in the design of the most common types of movable bridges – Bascule bridges and Swing Bridges. The selection of design concepts is influenced by span, foundation conditions as well as environmental issues. Application of modern hydraulic systems and innovative bearing types for swing bridges facilitate the creation of outstanding designs. Recently built moveable bridges in Denmark exemplifies the trend and how application of modern technology and creativity can lead to outstanding solutions. There are many governing parameters such as the span,

Abstract:
<p>For the last six decades closed-box orthotropic steel girders have been widely used in cable supported bridges due to their simple but useful structural concepts. Several numerical parametric studies were previously carried out in order to investigate inherent fatigue stress problems and in general, to improve the bridge girder designs. However, often such studies have been carried out with over-simplified finite element models, especially where boundary conditions have been challenging. In the present work, an advanced multi-scale FE model of a suspension bridge is established with s

<p>A footbridge was built in 2013 in rural Morocco using lightweight polyester rope, spanning 64 meters (210 feet) across a deep ravine. The area is prone to perennial flash flooding, cutting off access to schools, the local clinic, and the market for weeks at a time. After five years of service, the design team returned to inspect the structural condition, and replace one of the main ropes. The decommissioned rope was subjected to load testing and dissection, and was found to be in excellent condition.</p><p>The novel use of synthetic rope offered some advantages over steel

Abstract:
<p>Timber is one of the few renewable materials that improves its structural properties when combined with concrete. The composite of timber and concrete increase stiffness and fire protection, unlike timber when used alone. In contrast to concrete structures, timber-concrete composite (TCC) structures reduce the carbon footprint and the specific weight of a building. At the Chair of Hybrid Structures - Structural Concrete of BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg a moment-resistant TCC joint was developed for multi-story frames, which can be used as a structural system for high-rise buildings.

Abstract:
<p>In order to promote the application of steel-concrete composite structure in mountainous areas in China, a conceptual design for a PC continuous rigid frame box-girder bridge with corrugated steel webs and main span of 300 m was performed in the present paper. The combined corrugated steel web was proposed to increase the compressive area and improve the stability performance; thus, the self-weight of the composite box-girder bridge is significantly reduced. Flexural capacity of the whole section had been calculated with a single-beam model for the ultimate limit state (ULS). For the

<p>The Murray Morgan Lift Bridge in Tacoma WA was constructed in 1913. In 2007, the bridge was closed to vehicular and pedestrian traffic for advanced deterioration of structural systems, mechanical and electrical components. The bridge was scheduled for demolition. In 2010 after acquiring funding, the City of Tacoma awarded a design‐build contract to reconstruct this historic bridge. The restoration work included structural steel strengthening repairs, seismic improvements, roadway deck, and stringer replacement, complete paint system removal/re‐coating, as well as modernization of the
