The Highland Boundary Fault : Reverse or Wrench Fault?
DETAILED work which I have done in the Loch Lomond area suggests a definite answer to the above problem which is of some importance since it concerns one of the major geological features of the British Isles. The direction in which the principal stress acted in the production of the fault can be approximately determined from the pattern of structures in the Lower Old Red Sandstone conglomerates, and this supports the contention put forward in stratigraphical accounts (summarized by J. G. C. Anderson1) that the Highland Boundary Fault is a reverse fault of Caledonian age and not a Proto-Armorican wrench fault as envisaged by E. M. Anderson2.
NEOFRACTURES VERSUS INHERITED FRACTURES IN STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS: A CASE STUDY FROM QUATERNARY FLUVIAL GRAVELS (OUTER CARPATHIANS, POLAND)
Neospekania a spekania odziedziczone w analizie strukturalnej: przyklad z czwartorzedowych zwirow rzecznych (Polskie Karpaty zewnetrzne) 
 
This paper presents the results of a detailed analysis of flysch-derived clasts within Quaternary fluvial gravels exposed close to a map-scale overthrust. These clasts are commonly fractured. For a given population of clasts, the number of fractured clasts is positively correlated with the clast size and negatively correlated with the grain size of clast-forming rocks. The fractures comprise both those inherited from earlier joints cutting source strata, and those formed in situ within the gravels (neofractures). These two groups of fractures show different diagnostic features. The inherited fractures are orientated at random in relation to geographic coordinates, whereas the neofractures show a well-organized architecture. The inherited fractures are mostly inclined 80–90° to the a-b planes of the host clasts, whereas the neofractures are usually inclined at 0–80° to these planes. The occurrence of neofractured clasts within the analysed gravels results from tectonic activity post-dating gravel deposition.
Continents of Liberty: Emerson and Gerald Vizenor’s Chair of Tears
Ralph Waldo Emerson protested what came to be known as the Trail of Tears in a public letter to President Martin Van Buren in 1838. Th e Cherokee Nation, he argued, had been cheated by a “sham treaty” (Emerson, “Letter” 50), the will of the people ignored, and a false acquiescence to removal written into law. In making a passionate appeal to the highest “chair” of the land, Emerson underscored the great political and moral stakes involved:
