Models Of Wage Determination Of Offensive Linemen In The National Football League, Daniel S. Krywaruczenko

Health, Exercise, and Sports Sciences ETDs

This report reviews factors that can impact an offensive lineman’s salary in the National Football League. For years, factors measured by performance statistics have been gathered in various sports as a method to estimate a player’s production. Understanding performance statistics that impact a baseball player’s salary was popularized by the movie Moneyball, but limited work in this regard has been done to measure effectiveness or efficiency of offensive linemen in American football. The lack of publicly available data and many interdependencies in football make it difficult to objectively understand how salaries can best be determined. This study uses a quantitative …

The Silent Problem: The Implicit Personhood Determination In State V. Montoya, Erin Phillips

New Mexico Law Review

Can a dead person still be considered a person under a criminal statute? This unspoken question is at the center of State v. Montoya, illustrating how a facially simple and uncontroversial case can actually be very misleading. On appeal in Montoya, the defendant argued that the conviction of robbery was unfounded, since the victim was already deceased at the time of theft. The Court of Appeals gave little attention to the argument about the victim’s personhood, instead analyzing the case through the lens of a rational link standard, essentially measuring the connection between a homicide and a subsequent robbery in …

Using The Tenth Amendment To Prevent Forest Fires: An Analysis Of The Propertyclause And Tenth Amendment In United States V. Board Of County Commissionersof County Of Otero, Ryan F. Adragna

New Mexico Law Review

In July 2016, residents of Timberon, a small town located on the edge of Lincoln National Forest in Otero County, New Mexico, returned home to find their houses reduced to ashes. They were victims of a forest fire that had quickly spread due to the dry, arid conditions in Otero County. Unfortunately, such scenes are all too common. Wildfires burning throughout the country have become a growing national concern. Time and time again people are forced to evacuate their homes because forest fires, fueled by dry undergrowth, have burned their communities. When a community is faced with such dangers it …

Adjudication And The Adaptive Capacity Of Pecan Farmers In The Lower Rio Grande, Daniel R. Beene

Geography ETDs

Despite growing uncertainty of water availability in the future and popular understandings of water conservation in agriculture, a growing number of farmers in the Lower Rio Grande Basin are rapidly transitioning to pecan orchards, a long-term and highly water-dependent crop. Drivers of landscape change can be environmental, historic, socioeconomic, or institutional. Adaptation to change is understood as responses to external stimuli and is limited to a threshold by which an actor can meet their goals. Much of the current scholarship focuses on a given population’s adaptive capacity toward global climate change, however, most water policy in the western United States …

Comparison Of Nylon-Flocked Swab And Dacron Swab Cytology For Anal Hsil Detection In Transgender Women And Gay, Bisexual, And Other Men Who Have Sex With Men, Dorothy J. Wiley, Hilary K. Hsu, Martha A. Ganser, Jenny Brook, David A. Elashoff, Stephen A. Young, Nancy E. Joste, Ronald Mitsuyasu, Teresa M. Darragh, David H. Morris, Otoniel M. Martínez-Maza, Roger Detels, Jian Yu Rao, Robert K. Bolan, Eric T. Shigeno, Ernesto Rodriguez, Matthrew G. Moran

Pathology Research and Scholarship

BACKGROUND: An anal histological high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (hHSIL) is an anal cancer precursor. Experts recommend Dacron swab anal cytology as a primary screen for anal hHSILs, especially among human immunodeficiency virus-infected and -uninfected men who have sex with men (MSM). Studies have shown that Dacron cytology inaccurately predicts anal hHSILs and results in unnecessary diagnostic procedures. Nylon-flocked (NF) swabs have been shown to trap pathogens and cells well. Thus, this study compared test characteristics of anal cytology using NF and Dacron swab collection protocols to predict anal hHSILs.

METHODS: A single-visit, randomized clinical trial compared NF and Dacron swab …

Utilization Of Rectangular Collimation In Dental And Dental Hygiene Programs, Elizabeth Ann Wagner

Dental Hygiene ETDs

Rectangular collimation has proven to reduce the radiation dose to the patient as well as increase image quality. Studies have been conducted in the past to determine whether utilization of rectangular collimation results in a greater retake rate, however, there is a lack of data regarding the amount of rectangular collimation devices that are currently in use. The purpose of this study was to determine to what extent, if any, rectangular collimators are being utilized in dental and dental hygiene programs. A survey was created and sent via email to the program directors of Accredited dental and dental hygiene programs. …

Mexican Romantic Postcards, Center For Southwest Research

Love in the Archives 2019

This collection of “cartulinas de amor” represents a little studied aspect of post-revolutionary Mexican culture and middle class ideals. These images and texts show the intimate part of society, the changing mores, views of family, home and society. The collection affords the opportunity to view many disciplines, including portrait photography, art, intimacy, love, courtship, family, family relationships, class and gender.

The collection consists of postcards that date from 1908 to the 1940s with the majority in the teens, 1920s and 1930s. Most are photographic portraits of anonymous subjects, while others feature songs, poems, or portraits of celebrities such as Lupe …

Irrigation Forbearance In The Middle Rio Grande: Using Remote Sensing To Improve Investments, Trevor Birt

Water Resources Professional Project Reports

In extremely dry years when there is a high premium on surface water, irrigation forbearance agreements help water managers maintain riparian health, fish populations, and ensure water delivery to downstream users. In order for these programs to maximize their effectiveness and limit their impact on agricultural communities, water managers should seek the highest return on investment - or the highest amount of water per acre entered into forbearance. This may be accomplished by assessing the water requirements of fields and then grouping by conveyance lateral, to target the highest among them as good forbearance participants. Unfortunately, irrigation measurement in the …

Investigating Arabic Pragmatic Markers In Teacher Talk: A Multi-Layered Analytical Approach, Yaseen Ali Azi

Language, Literacy, and Sociocultural Studies ETDs

Through this descriptive qualitative case study of three native speaking Arabic teachers in an L2 Arabic classroom in a private school setting in the U.S., this study presented a four-stage multi-layered analytical approach demonstrating functional, interactional and pedagogical analyses of the uses of Arabic PMs in teacher talk and also providing a detailed emic analysis of the phenomena by incorporating teachers’ perceptions of their uses of those elements in their classroom talks. Findings of the functional analysis clearly showed that Arabic PMs perform different micro functions at four macro levels (structural, interpersonal, referential and multi- functional). Moreover, …

Save Money, Save Water; Developing A Risk Model For Leak Detection And Pipe Replacement Using Spatial Analysis, Angelique Desiree Maldonado

Water Resources Professional Project Reports

It is imperative to properly and proactively maintain a distribution pipe system. The benefits to optimizing a pipe distribution system include ensuring a safe water quality, reducing water loss from leaks and line breaks, minimizing revenue losses and providing a reliable service. There are also economic concerns as pipe replacement is extremely expensive; in the state of New Mexico, an estimated $1.16 billion in drinking water infrastructure is needed over the next 20 years. (USEPA 2013). Because distribution pipe is so costly to replace, an approach that only looks at age or type or non-system specific data may overestimate the …
