    Fossil Skeletons and Mother Lodes
    For those who have collected old bones and teeth from Florida, you can attest to the fact that although fossil mammals are indeed plentiful, they are usually found disarticulated; the skeletons are almost never found in tact. Localities throughout the world that do preserve complete skeletons are indeed rare and these have been called Lagerstätten , a German term roughly meaning "mother lode." Steve Gould once noted that ".Lagerstätten are rare, but their contributions to our knowledge of life's history is disproportionate to their frequency." Why is this so? For invertebrates, soft-bodied organisms may be preserved thus giving insight into various fossil groups not normally fossilized (see Book Review below). For vertebrates the same can be true. At the fabulous Eocene Messel in Germany, carbonized impressions of stomach contents of palaeotheres (close relatives of horses, see chart on page 6) indicate that they were eating grapes, and that bats were eating butterflies. For other Lagerstätten containing vertebrates, the Scientific value is in the completeness of the skeleton. These entire specimens allow paleontologists to decipher the anatomy and biology of these extinct organisms. Artist Marc Marcuson's reconstruction of Pliohippus

Pony Express Historic Resource Study
ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY INTRODUCTION
The historiography of the Pony Express can be broken down into the following two general categories: 1) primary resources (which include archival manuscript material, contemporary newspapers, traveler journals, diaries, autobiographies, and reminisces of people directly or indirectly associated with the Pony Express); 2) secondary historical resources (which include undocumented historical narratives, articles, and other research efforts, as well scholarly research). The following annotated bibliographical essay will guide the reader/researcher through the more significant resources that pertain to the history and understanding of the importance of the Pony Express. For additional resource materials see the full bibliography at the end of this manuscript.
PRIMARY RESOURCES ARCHIVAL MANUSCRIPT MATERIAL In Missouri, the researcher should start at the St. Joseph Museum in St. Joseph. The museum's library has a good collection of secondary historical resources pertaining to the Pony Express, including photographs, maps, and slides. The St. Joseph Museum also operates the Pony Express Museum (renovated former stables of the Pony Express), which exhibits and displays material that illustrates the creation, operation, management, and termination of the enterprise. In addition to visiting the St. Joseph and Pony Express Museum, the researcher should turn to the holdings of the Western Historical Manuscript Collection of the University of Missouri at Columbus for a few primary resources. The University of Missouri possesses an original copy of the "Pony Express Edition" of the St.

Old West
This Old West project has a companion People of the West page. Here you can find links to hundreds of biographical websites with lots more information about individual outlaws, lawmen, military leaders, native Americans, ranchers, cattle barons, and leaders in the early West. . . so many websites that we had to set up a separate location for all of them.

Easier - Sometimes people talk about the 'West,' the 'Wild West,' or the 'Old West.' They are usually referring to the people and events of the western region of the United States during the second half of the 1800's. Harder - The romantic view of the Old West can be seen in western movies and novels that depict the Wild West as a time of gunfights, gambling, and Indian attacks. In reality, most inhabitants of the West didn't carry a gun or participate in shootouts. A century ago the American West was a rough and wild place. Far from the control of the US government in the East, the Old West was ruled by its own set of laws. In the early 1840s, settlers began moving toward the Pacific Northwest. After gold was found in California in the mid 1800s, people began to flood the west in search of their fortune. Next, cowboys began rounding up wild cattle and organizing herds. The pony express, the stagecoach, and ultimately the Transcontinental Railroad and the telegraph began to join the East and the West. By 1900, the range was fenced in to create ranches, the Native Americans moved to reservations, and many frontier towns became well-established cities.

Introduction The Pony Express employed the most courageous and adventurous young men and the strongest horses to transport the mail from St. Joseph, Missouri, to Sacramento, California-a distance of almost 2,000 miles. The 19 months that this exceptional service lasted (before it was replaced by the telegraph) represents one of the most thrilling eras of western United States history. Table of Contents

Student Outcomes Links to Lessons Children's Books ... Pre/Post Test Student Outcomes This unit was developed for Mrs. Shannon Steedley's 3rd grade class at Center Elementary; however, many of the lesson plans may be adapted to meet the needs of any grade level students. Through this unit the students will learn about the history of the Pony Express, as well as about some of its riders. The students will learn to use map skills, go on a virtual field trip, and work together on activities. The outcomes that should be reached by teaching this unit are that students will learn the history of the modern day mailing system, will learn map skills, will learn to work cooperatively, and will further research the topic of the Pony Express.

Downsizing, 1860s-Style:
Lessons from the Pony Express
Larry Schweikart
No image in the 1990s captured the apparent weaknesses of the capitalist system more than that of mid-level managers "downsized" out of their jobs. Here were successful executives with well-paying jobs and solid retirement prospects suddenly told that they had no place in the company and that they had to go. Corporations, cognizant that the news would be portrayed negatively (jobs lost and lives ruined rather than new jobs created and customers served), attempted to "spin" the reports by creating such terms as "downsizing" and, more insultingly, "right-sizing." As the companies expected, newspapers reported each new announcement of corporate cut-backs with almost gleeful tones, to the point of running news about the layoffs in headlines with the most dramatic language. The New York Times, for example, in March 1996 ran a seven-part series called "The Downsizing of America," in which it called laid-off employees "casualties" of "the battlefields of business." Part of the enthusiasm for the news accounts involved the "victims" - in this case, employees whose productivity no longer matched their cost - because the pink-slipped were overwhelmingly mid-level managers and white-collar executives who had (seemingly) been spared the severe retrenchments during the 1970s and 1980s in the steel, auto, and electronics industries. At that time, the blue-collar workforce had taken it on the chin, and the media had dutifully covered those developments with appropriately somber and glum commentaries. After all (the newsroom reasoning went), the blue-collar guys actually worked for a living and thus were deserving of sympathy. But the corporate types? Served 'em right. Now they knew how the line workers felt.

Fossil Horses and Global Environmental Change Over the Past 20 Million Years
Over the past several years there have been some exciting innovations in the study of fossil mammals using techniques from chemistry. While I was on my sabbatical at the University of Utah I was fortunate to learn some of these techniques to study the ancient ecology, climate, local environments, and changes that have occurred over the past 20 million years from Florida and elsewhere in North America. During the process of photosynthesis, plants fix carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and soil and combine the carbon in different ways. Most of the world's plants, including trees, shrubs, and high-latitude and high-elevation (cool growing season) grasses photosynthesize carbon into 3-chain compounds and are called C3 plants . On land, C3 plants represent about 90 % of the plant biomass. In contrast, most temperate and tropical grasses and some arid-adapted shrubs photosynthesize carbon into 4-chained compounds (

    This is a very exciting phase in the development of the FlaMNH. Over the next decade these changes will provide new space for public exhibits, including a major emphasis on paleontology. I anticipate being involved in this new initiative and envision the opportunity to place on exhibit some new and fascinating fossil horse specimens for the public to appreciate. Another major initiative on the UF campus is the newly established College of Natural Resources and the Environment. This is a new concept in university colleges that cuts across traditional university disciplines, combining such previously disparate fields as the natural and social sciences, agriculture, public relations/communications, engineering, law, urban and regional planning, and the FlaMNH. Related to the FlaMNH, our faculty hopes to teach courses and provide internship experiences in systematics and biodiversity. This college will begin at the undergraduate level and then expand to include graduate programs. In March I learned that I was awarded a Fulbright Senior Fellowship for 1993-4. This will provide me the opportunity to live in La Paz, Bolivia where I will conduct research on fossil mammals from the Andes at the National Museum of Natural History and teach a course (in Spanish) on geology and paleontology at the University of San Andres. This opportunity will give me many new experiences that I will be able to share with readers of
