Extractions: The widow spiders belong to the genus Latrodectus . There are five species found in North America north of Mexico. The black widow for many years was considered to be a single species but since is now recognized to be represented by three species, which are very similar in appearance and habitat. These three widow spiders are the Southern black widow Latrodectus mactans (Fabricius), the Western black widow L. hesperus L. variolus (Walckenaer). The widow spiders are the most notorious of all spiders. L. geometricus

Extractions: The International Honor Society in History, Phi Alpha Theta , was organized at the University of Arkansas on March 17, 1921. It now has over seven hundred forty chapters in fifty states, Puerto Rico, Canada, and the Philippine Islands. It is the largest, in number of chapters, of the accredited honor societies holding membership in the Association of College Honor Societies. The total number of its initiates, since organization, is more than 220,000. Return to Gamma-Sigma Activities Page Phi Alpha Theta is a professional society which seeks to promote the study of History through the encouragement of research, good teaching, publication, and the exchange of learning among historians. It seeks to bring students, teachers, and writers of History together both intellectually and socially, and it encourages and assists historical research and publication by its members. MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENTS An undergraduate student must have completed at least twelve semester hours in history. A student must have a grade point average of at least 3.25 in the student's history courses. Additionally, a student must have an overall grade point average of at least 3.0 in all college course work. ACTIVITIES OF THE SOCIETY At its biennial convention, students, undergraduate and graduate alike, are provided an opportunity to meet with distinguished historians and to present papers which they have written. Phi Alpha Theta is one of the few honor and professional historical societies to encourage the presentation of papers by students on its programs. At the same time, a number of outstanding historians also appear on the program of every biennial convention, so that members of the Society have the opportunity to hear their contributions to historical scholarship. Through these meetings students and professors have the opportunity to get to know others interested in the field of History and to enjoy the social and intellectual dialogue that takes place.

Extractions: Vol. 3, No. 3, September 1983 Professional Associations and the Regulation of Standard-setting Hedvah L. Shuchman, Director, Technology Assessment Center, New York Recent public policy on standards and certification reflects both the high value placed on the voluntary standard setting system and serious concern that the system is being misused to exclude competitors and injure consumers. Disagreement has arisen over the means for remedying the anticompetitive consequences of some standard-setting activities. When government intervenes in an open market, the choice of regulatory approach must be measured by the extent to which it creates incentives for compliance, the ease with which it can be administratively enforced and the costs it imposes. Critics of perceived excessive regulation argue that the government must be careful not to discourage productive standard setting activity or to impose costs without providing offsetting benefits. However, the courts

Extractions: hkr1@cornell.edu The general goals of my research are to understand the principles governing the evolution of animal societies and, especially, to investigate the evolutionary causes and consequences of cooperation and conflict within these societies. My current research focuses on the problem of how the members of an animal society resolve potential conflicts over how to divide up overall group reproduction. In particular, I have extended and tested models predicting the conditions under which a dominant member of a society should concede reproduction to a subordinate member as an incentive for the subordinate to stay in the group and help the dominant. To test these "transactional" models of reproductive partitioning (known also as "optimal skew" and "concessions" models), I have examined whether naturally co-nesting social wasp queens divide up reproduction according to relatedness, fighting ability, and ecological factors in the ways predicted by the models. Current evidence suggests that the social contract models may apply widely to animal societies. My ultimate aim for this line of research is to develop a rigorous, empirically well-tested, general theory of the fundamental properties of animal societies as a function of colony genetic structure, relative fighting abilities of colony members, benefits of colony cooperation and opportunities for solitary reproduction. If the transactional models continue to prove correct, for the first time it will be possible to predict quantitatively multiple, complex properties of both natural and manipulated social systems with advance knowledge of only a few key social parameters.
