A recent (May 2003) rewrite of several past articles on applying a linear CCD array from an old hand scanner to the purpose of making "rollout" or peripheral photographs of people rotating on a mechanized turntable.
The Effect Of Processing Conditions On Varistors Prepared From Nanocrystalline Zno, Suresh Pillai, Declan Mccormack, John Kelly, Ramesh Raghavendra
The Effect Of Processing Conditions On Varistors Prepared From Nanocrystalline Zno, Suresh Pillai, Declan Mccormack, John Kelly, Ramesh Raghavendra
Articles
Nanoparticles of ZnO were prepared by the reaction of ethanolic solutions of zinc acetate and oxalic acid
followed by drying (80 uC) and calcination (500 uC). Subsequently varistor materials were fabricated from this
nanoparticular ZnO via two separate routes:- a) from a ‘‘core shell’’ material using metal salts as additives; b)
by using a conventional solid state mixing of metal oxides. Sintering (1050 uC) and subsequent electrical studies
were carried out for each of these samples and they were compared with commercial varistor samples prepared
under similar conditions. ‘‘Core shell’’ type varistor material showed considerably higher breakdown voltage

An Examination Of Financial Integration For The Group Of Seven (G7) Industrialized Countries Using An I(2) Conintegration Model, A Tahai, Robert Rutledge, Khondkar Karim
An Examination Of Financial Integration For The Group Of Seven (G7) Industrialized Countries Using An I(2) Conintegration Model, A Tahai, Robert Rutledge, Khondkar Karim
Articles
This study investigates financial cointegration of G7 equity markets. The term 'international stock market integration' refers to an area of research in financial economics that covers many different aspects of the interrelationships across equity markets. The cointegration of order tow model, 1(2), that was developed by Johansen is used to specify potential cointegration structure. The empirical validity of this economic model is investigated by employing monthly stock indexes of the Group of Seven (G7) from March 1978 through December 1997 on Morgan Stanley's Capital International (MSCI) indices. This monthly time series data is used to estimate the vector error correction …
Strategic Implications Of Technological Innovation That Is Hard To Sell, Stephen Luxmore, Ken Shaw
Strategic Implications Of Technological Innovation That Is Hard To Sell, Stephen Luxmore, Ken Shaw
Articles
During the last decade the biotechnology industry has made remarkable scientific advancement. It is reasonable to surmise that in addition to corporate and personal goals, an intended outcome of biotechnological research is to benefit society. Yet how should companies react in the face of public scrutiny and often-resulting mistrust for technological innovation? This paper examines the strategic implications of researching, developing and bringing to market technology that is hard to sell. Specifically, we explore the application of technology to genetically modified crops in the agricultural industry.
An Upper Bound For The Representation Number Of Graphs With Fixed Order, Darren Narayan
An Upper Bound For The Representation Number Of Graphs With Fixed Order, Darren Narayan
Articles
A graph has a representation modulo n if there exists an injective map f: {V(G)} -> {0, 1, ... , n @ 1} such that vertices u and v are adjacent if and only if |f(u)@f(v)| is relatively prime to n. The representation number is the smallest n such that G has a representation modulo n. We seek the maximum value for the representation number over graphs of a fixed order. Erdos and Evans provided an upper bound in their proof that every finite graph can be represented modulo some positive integer. In this note we improve this bound and …
On The Equivalences Of The Wheel W5, The Prism P And The Bipyramid B5, Hossein Shahmohamad
On The Equivalences Of The Wheel W5, The Prism P And The Bipyramid B5, Hossein Shahmohamad
Articles
The main results of this paper are the discovery of infinite families of flow equivalent pairs of B5 and W5 amallamorphs and infinite families of chromatically equivalent pairs of P and W*5 homeomorphs, where B5 is K5 with one edge deleted, P is the Prism graph and W5 is the join of K1 and a cycle on 4 vertices. Six families of B5 amallamorphs, with two families having 6 parameters, and 9 families of W5 amallamorphs, with one family having 4 parameters, are discovered. Since B5 and W5 are both planar, all these results obtained can be stated in terms …

Water Dispute Resolution In The West: Process Elements For The Modern Era In Basin-Wide Problem Solving, Barbara Cosens
Water Dispute Resolution In The West: Process Elements For The Modern Era In Basin-Wide Problem Solving, Barbara Cosens
Articles
Growing urban water demand, recent recognition of tribal water rights, and needs for critical aquatic habitat in the face of the archaic law governing water allocation are driving people in the western United States to seek alternative methods to resolve water allocation disputes. The current ad hoc and locally driven approach to negotiation of basin-wide water issues runs the risk of overlooking broader interests. Whereas water use is local and rives local economies, the continued viability of our water resources and the legacy we leave to future generations in water infrastructure, social stability, an environmental amenities is national in scope. …

Piney Run: The Permits Are Not What They Seem, Jessica Owley
Piney Run: The Permits Are Not What They Seem, Jessica Owley
Articles
In 2001, the Fourth Circuit addressed the permit shield provision of the Clean Water Act and found it to provide broad-scale protection for polluters. In Piney Run Preservation Association v. County Commissioners of Carroll County, the Fourth Circuit held that facilities with discharge permits are protected from lawsuits even when discharging pollutants not contained within their permits. Under this ruling, permit holders may discharge, without fear of penalty, any disclosed pollutant within the reasonable expectation of the permitting authority. This decision is worrisome because it does not protect the goals of the Clean Water Act and deprives the public …

On The Psychology Of Punishment, Cass R. Sunstein
On The Psychology Of Punishment, Cass R. Sunstein
Articles
Are juries rational or irrational? In the context of punitive damage awards, jury decisions suffer from serious problems. Jurors are intuitive retributivists, in a way that produces departures from economic theories of punishment. Their decisions are rooted in outrage, which they cannot easily translate into dollar terms. The result is a degree of unpredictability and incoherence. An understanding of this point casts light on several problems with existing institutions and offers some clues about how those problems might be solved.

Beyond The Precautionary Principle, Cass R. Sunstein
Beyond The Precautionary Principle, Cass R. Sunstein
Articles
The precautionary principle has been highly influential in legal systems all over the world. In its strongest and most distinctive forms, the principle imposes a burden of proof on those who create potential risks, and it requires regulation of activities even if it cannot be shown that those activities are likely to produce significant harms. Taken in this strong form, the precautionary principle should be rejected, not because it leads in bad directions, but because it leads in no direction at all. The principle is literally paralyzing-forbidding inaction, stringent regulation, and everything in between. The reason is that in the …

International Delegations, The Structural Constitution, And Non-Self-Execution, Curtis A. Bradley
Articles
In this Article I consider the constitutional implications of U.S. delegations of authority to international institutions.1 Since World War II, there has been a vast growth in the number and importance of international institutions. Although some of these institutions are merely forums for discussion and negotiation, many of them exercise judicial, legislative, regulatory, investigative, or prosecutorial authority. Despite its isolationist reputation, and despite recently announcing that it would not become a party to the International Criminal Court, the United States has committed itself to many of these institutions. By virtue of these commitments, the United States has consented to …
Terrorism And Insurance Markets: A Role For The Government As Insurer?, Alan O. Sykes
Terrorism And Insurance Markets: A Role For The Government As Insurer?, Alan O. Sykes
Articles
Since September 11, 2001, insurance markets have been struggling to adjust to new information about the magnitude of risks posed by terrorism, and to the loss of tens of billions of dollars in reserves because of claims relating to the September 11 attacks. Insurance coverage for terror-related losses has become more expensive and for some risks difficult or impossible to obtain. As a result, various interest groups called for the federal government to provide coverage for terrorism losses, resulting in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002. We question the wisdom of measures of this sort. They are likely to …

Antitrust's Troubled Relations With Intellectual Property, Daniel J. Gifford
Antitrust's Troubled Relations With Intellectual Property, Daniel J. Gifford
Articles
Throughout most of the history of the antitrust laws, the relationship between antitrust laws and patent, copyright, and other intellectual property laws has been a subject of controversy. The courts have sometimes allowed intellectual property law to trump antitrust law, and at other times they have done the opposite. One would think that, given the over one-hundred-year period the Sherman Act has been on the books, the relationships between these two sets of laws would be settled by now. Yet, as recent litigation in the Federal, Ninth, and District of Columbia Circuits demonstrates, the antitrust/intellectual property interface remains as troubled …
The Antitrust/Intellectual Property Interface: An Emerging Solution To An Intractable Problem, Daniel J. Gifford
The Antitrust/Intellectual Property Interface: An Emerging Solution To An Intractable Problem, Daniel J. Gifford
Articles
The relationship of the antitrust laws to the patent, copyright and other intellectual property laws has perplexed antitrust scholars and practitioners since the beginning of the twentieth century. 1 The problems in reconciling the two legal areas arise from two, if related, sources. One problem lies in their purposes: the intellectual property laws are designed to create exclusive rights - exclusive rights that sometimes rise to the level of monopolies - in order to encourage innovation and creativity. The antitrust laws are designed to foster competition and to prevent the formation of monopolies. The other related problem is definitional; just …

Ellman's "Why Making Family Law Is Hard": Additional Reflections, Robert Levy
Articles
Not the least of the pleasures of membership in this distinguished group invited to praise Ira Ellman was the opportunity it gave me to renew old and dear friendships with Arizona State faculty members and their spouses, to come back to the scene of my "adjunct visitor" gig last year, to see once again an effective dean whom I greatly admire. More important, the occasion allows me to praise publicly a scholar whose creative thinking, academic writing, legislative drafting and public performances as Reporter for the American Law Institute's Principles of the Law of Family Dissolution I have long respected.
The Limitations Of Limited Liability: Lessons For Entrepreneurs (And Their Attorneys), John H. Matheson
The Limitations Of Limited Liability: Lessons For Entrepreneurs (And Their Attorneys), John H. Matheson
Articles
An entrepreneur does not start a new business expecting it to fail. Yet, according to various statistics, most independent start-up businesses fail within the first year, while as many as 90% are no longer in business after three years. This is why the issue of personal liability for the owners of the business is critical. Historically, the entrepreneur could protect personal assets by forming and operating the business as a corporation, recognized by state law as a legal entity separate from the owner of the business for purposes of imposing liability. Although operating a business as a corporation presumptively shields …

The Economists' New Arguments, Brett Mcdonnell
Articles
Adam and Max, two law professors and longtime friends, have just run into each other at an Association of American Law Schools (AALS) meeting. Adam has long been a zealous partisan of the law and economics approach to legal analysis. Max, though he has some training in economics, is more skeptical about that approach. The two old friends have discussed various aspects of this subject over the years, and in this meeting they renew their discussion. The topic this time: Fairness Versus Welfare, 1 the new book (formerly a mammoth article in the Harvard Law Review) 2 by two leading …
