Vernonia The potential use of vernonia as a petroleum substitute is important since the demand for petroleum each year in the USA is approximately 8,500 pounds per person, of which about 500 pounds per person is needed for production of plastics and industrial petrochemicals. Vernonia is a crop adaptable to the latitudes within 20 degrees north or south of the equator since this comprises its natural distribution. Vernonia will not be considered seriously as a new industrial crop until a vernonia product is in commerce and agriculture has shown it can produce a reliable supply at a reasonable cost. www.hort.purdue.edu /newcrop/afcm/vernonia.html   (2010 words)

The History of Vernonia Oregon Vernonia's heyday began in the 1920's when it was the site of the Oregon-American Sawmill, billed at the time as the largest in the world, which was fed by logging railroads in all directions, but alas, by the early 1950's the virgin timber was gone and so was the mill. Vernonia was ultimately named for the daughter of one of the original settlers, Ozias Cherrington who moved there in 1876.

Vernonia Sch. Dist. 47J v. Acton, 515 U.S. 646 (1995). Between 1988 and 1989 the number of disciplinary referrals in Vernonia schools rose to more than twice the number reported in the early 1980's, and several students were suspended. The locker rooms in Vernonia are typical: no individual dressing rooms are provided; shower heads are lined up along a wall, unseparated by any sort of partition or curtain; not even all the toilet stalls have doors. We find insufficient basis to contradict the judgment of Vernonia's parents, its school board, and the District Court, as to what was reasonably in the interest of these children under the circumstances. supct.law.cornell.edu /supct/html/94-590.ZO.html   (5106 words)

GRAIN | BIO-IPR | 11 August 2006 In addition, hundreds of local farmers will be paid to grow vernonia on land that is too poor and arid to produce good food crops.

He is embarking on a collaborative project with Eastman, the US-based chemicals company, to develop vernonia oil as a base for paints. www.grain.org /bio-ipr/?id=487   (808 words)

FindLaw for Legal Professionals - Case Law, Federal and State Resources, Forms, and Code And were there any doubt about such a conclusion, it is removed by indications in the record that suspicion-based testing could have been supplemented by an equally vigorous campaign to have Vernonia's parents encourage their children to submit to the District's voluntary drug testing program. The evidence of a drug-related sports injury problem at Vernonia, by contrast, was considerably weaker. On this record, then, it seems to me that the far more reasonable choice would have been to focus on the class of students found to have violated published school rules against severe disruption in class and around campus, see Record, Exh. caselaw.lp.findlaw.com /scripts/getcase.pl?court=us&vol=515&invol=646   (10811 words)
