A Rolling Line Source for a Seismic Sonar This is a NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A169504. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: This thesis builds on ideas of a seismo-acoustic sonar as a mine detection tool and is part of an ongoing Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) research project. Building on this foundation of research, a source was developed to enable mobility. The previous NPS array Sheetz design employed an array of sources, buried in the sediment in a line. This arrangement is somewhat cumbersome for direct application. A practical device should be mobile and create a high source signal similar to the previous NPS array. A rolling cylinder provided the solution. The cylinder houses two shakers, identical to the previous NPS array elements, mounted directly to the cylinder wall. The source for a single buried array element, from the previous NPS array, and a single rolling cylinder, placed on the surface, were shown to provide similar seismic velocity at ten meters range.

Novel Diarrhoea Viruses - No. 128 (CIBA Foundation Symposia Series) Until recently a neglected disease syndrome, diarrhea is responsible for many millions of infant deaths in developing countries. The result of a 1987 symposium, this volume reflects advances in the aetiology of diarrhea while addressing such puzzling problems as the difficulty of growing viruses in a controlled setting. The volume is deliberately restricted to so-called ``novel'' diarrhea viruses and is not concerned with ``classical'' rotaviruses, which have formed the basis of previous symposia. Articles concentrate on: atypical rotaviruses; the enteric adenoviruses; small round viruses such as astroviruses, caliciviruses and Norwalk virus; and the Berne and Breda viruses, suggested as a new family Toroviridae. The contributions come from an interdisciplinary mix of virologists (both human and veterinary), epidemiologists, molecular biologists, and pathologists.

Civil War studies normally focus on military battles, campaigns, generals, and politicians, with the common Confederate soldier and Southern civilians receiving only token mention. Using personal accounts from more than two hundred seventy soldiers, farmers, clerks, surgeons, sailors, chaplains, farm girls, nurses, nuns, merchants, teachers and wives, author Jeff Toalson has created a compilation that is remarkable in its simplicity and stunning in its scope. These soldiers and civilians wrote remarkable letters and kept astonishing diaries and journals. They discussed disease, slavery, inflation, religion, desertion, blockade running, and their never-ending hope that the war would be over before their loved ones died. As in all wars, these are the people who suffer the mostand glory is hard to find amid lice, dysentery, starvation, and death. A significant contribution to Civil War literature, No Soap, No Pay, Diarrhea, Dysentery & Desertion will open vistas to a side of the war with which most are only mildly familiar. The words of these individuals are an honest, powerful, and poetic portrayal of the wars effect on their lives.
