Extractions: Home Catalog Every spring the woods are filled with people searching for edible morels. Morels are wonderfully delicious and fairly easy to identify. Their appearance in the spring occurs at a time when people are eager to resume outdoor activity. Fresh morels are offered for retail purchase at $20.00 to $24.00 a pound ($40 to $50 U.S. dollars per kilo.) No wonder mushroom hunters take to the woods to gather this delicacy for free. Favorite spots for collecting morels are a closely guarded secret, and wars have even broken out among commercial collectors in the Pacific Northwest! Collectors are so passionate that festivals are held in northern Michigan with prizes awarded for the largest morel, the most morels, the best recipe, etc. The Boyne City Morel Festival, in the third week in May, is the biggest in Michigan. In 1994, 17,000 collectors attended the festival. Morels are the fruiting body of a fungus that lives in the soil. When the soil temperature and moisture conditions are right the fungus produces morels, containing the spores of the fungus. The wind carries the spores to new habitats, where they germinate and produce a new individual of the morel fungus. The pitted, spongy cap on the white stem in the picture contains the spores. Some caps are black, gray or even white depending on the species of morel fungus.

Extractions: CHARTER The Secretary AUTHORITY The Commission on Opportunity in Athletics (Commission) is established by the Secretary of Education, and is governed by the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) (P.L. 92-463, as amended; 5 U.S.C.A. Appendix 2). BACKGROUND The 30dl anniversary of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 ("Title IX”) is upon us. Title IX, signed into law by President Nixon, prohibits recipients of Federal funds from discriminating on the basis of sex. This landmark legislation and evolving societal attitudes regarding the "proper" role of women largely explain many of the opportunities that women now enjoy. Prior to the enactment of Title IX, schools and universities receiving federal funds were tree to discriminate against women (and girls), and many did.. This partially explains the paucity of school and collegiate athletic teams prior to the enactment of Title IX. Over the last 20 years, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of women's (and girls') athletic teams at both the high school and college levels. From 1981 to 1999, the total number of college women's teams increased by 66%. The growth of certain women's sports has been explosive during this period. According to the Genera] Accounting Office, for example, colleges created over 846 new women's soccer teams. In 1971, 294,015 girls participated in high school athletics, Today, over 2.5 million girls participate in high school athletics. This represents a 847% increase.

Extractions: Origins of Horticultural Science The origin of horticultural science derives from a confluence of three events: the formation of scientific societies in the 17 th century, the creation of agricultural and horticultural societies in the 18 th century, and the establishment of state-supported agricultural research in the 19 th century. Two seminal horticultural societies were involved: The Horticultural Society of London (later the Royal Horticulture Society ) founded in 1804 and the Society for Horticultural Science (later the American Society for Horticultural Science ) founded in 1903. Three horticulturists can be considered as the Fathers of Horticultural Science: Thomas Andrew Knight, John Lindley, and Liberty Hyde Bailey. Miller was Gardener to the Worshipful Company of Apothecaries at their Botanic Garden in Chelsea and is known as the most important garden writer of the 18 th century.

Many genera became extinct by the end of the Rawtheyan Age, as did a smaller group by the end of the ensuing Hirnantian Age (the end of the Ordovician). The Ordovician stromatoporoid fauna was dominated by genera in order Labechiida, with a few genera representing order Clathrodictyida also present. The return to pre-extinction levels of abundance and diversity during the Early Silurian (Llandovery Epoch) was at first a gradual process during the Rhuddanian Age and the first half of the subsequent Aeronian Age. In the Rhuddanian two Ordovician hold-over clathrodictyid genera, Clathrodictyon and Ecclimadictyon , prevailed with very rare occurrences of labechiids Pachystylostroma Labechia , and Forolinia . In the late Rhuddanian the first actinostromatid ( Plectostroma ) appeared.

Extractions: Methods During the spring of 2001, a total of 18 wetland and pond sites were sampled on the campus of Michigan State University. Of these sites, 9 were classified as vernal pools or ponds and 9 were classified as wetlands ( Table 1 ). Sampling began in May and continued until the end of June. At each site water samples were taken from each distinct vegetation/habitat type within the wetland or pond. These samples were taken back to the lab to determine turbidity, alkalinity, pH, and the concentration of soluble reactive phosphate (SRP), ammonium, nitrate, sulfate, chloride, and silica. From each vegetation zone the following parameters were measured in the field: water temperature, dissolved oxygen, depth, and specific conductance. Examination of the water chemistry data reveals that Table 2 ). Nitrate concentrations were below detection limits (0.01) for the majority of the sites. However, the Farm Lane Pond had very high concentrations presumably due to runoff from the Hancock Turf Grass Research Center study plots directly adjacent to this site. Bennett wetland was another site that was apparently impacted with elevated levels of chloride and ammonium. The two ponds south of Natural Resources were chemically distinct with very different specific conductance, pH, and sulfate concentrations (
