After The Dna Wars: Skirmishing With Nrc Ii, Richard O. Lempert
After The Dna Wars: Skirmishing With Nrc Ii, Richard O. Lempert
Articles
This article traces some of the controversies surrounding DNA evidence and argues that although many have been laid to rest by scientific developments confirmed in the National Research Council's second DNA report, there remain several problems which are likely to lead to continued questioning of standard ways prosecutors present DNA evidence. Although much about the report is to be commended, it falls short in several ways, the most important of which is in its support for presenting random match probabilities independent of plausible error rates. The article argues that although one can sympathize with the NRC committee's decision as an …
On The Stark Broadening Parameters Of The Two Nii Spectral Lines Of The 3d-4f Transition, Vladimir Milosavljevic, Stevan Djenize
On The Stark Broadening Parameters Of The Two Nii Spectral Lines Of The 3d-4f Transition, Vladimir Milosavljevic, Stevan Djenize
Articles
Stark parameters (width and shift) of two singly ionized nitrogen spectral lines, that belong to 3d-4f transition have been measured in a linear pulsed, low pressure, arc discharge in the nitrogen-oxygen plasma at a 54000 K electron temperature and at a 2.8×10 23 m−3 electron density. The measured values have been compared to the existing experimental and calculated data

Law And Iconomics, Jeanne L. Schroeder, David G. Carlson
Articles
Peter Goodrich's Oedipus Lex critically examines the English common law tradition through a psychoanalytic lens, revealing a 'legal unconscious' that underscores deep-seated repressions and contradictions. He argues that common law has historically attempted to exclude imagery and the feminine, yet these elements persist, leading to internal conflicts. By analyzing historical legal texts from the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods, Goodrich exposes violent rhetoric against enemies of the common law, such as Catholics and women, highlighting the law's struggle with its own unconscious structures.

Minority Protection In Residential Private Governments, Stewart E. Sterk
Minority Protection In Residential Private Governments, Stewart E. Sterk
Articles
The article explores the balance between majority rule and minority protections in community associations, drawing parallels with corporate governance to address conflicts and self-dealing issues. It argues that while market forces and self-interest often mitigate harmful majority actions, legal safeguards are necessary to protect minority interests, particularly when idiosyncratic value is at stake. The article advocates for express protections in governing documents and the use of supermajorities to limit association power, emphasizing that courts should invalidate redistributive actions without compensation.
Playing The "Culture Card": Trials In A Mutli-Cultural Democracy, Richard O. Lempert
Playing The "Culture Card": Trials In A Mutli-Cultural Democracy, Richard O. Lempert
Articles
As I write, the racial divide in America is said to be greater than at any time in the past 25 years.' Two events are blamed: the O.J. Simpson criminal trial and the Louis Farrakan led "Million Man March." That these events should exacerbate racial division is extraordinary. The Farrakan led march brought together between 400,000 and 800,000 black males to pledge that they would take the kind of responsibility for their actions and their families that white Americans have long argued they should take. The O.J. Simpson trial was more a "who done it" than a racial morality play. …

U.S. International Treatment Of Financial Derivatives, Reuven Avi-Yonah, Linda Swartz
Articles
The current proposals to substitute consumption for income as the principal U.S. tax base have already been the topic of considerable commentary in these pages. However, one issue has received relatively little attention in the discussion of the various reform proposals: What potential complications are likely to arise if a single major player in the world's economy unilaterally adopts radical tax reform? The global economy is becoming more and more unified, with multinational corporations dominating world trade and trillions of dollars in portfolio investment flowing across national boundaries. In this economy, what would be the consequences if a single country, …

Evidence For The Specific Status Of The Honduran Lizards Formerly Referred To Ctenosaura Palearis (Reptilia: Squamata: Iguanidae), Larry Buckley, Ralph Axtell
Evidence For The Specific Status Of The Honduran Lizards Formerly Referred To Ctenosaura Palearis (Reptilia: Squamata: Iguanidae), Larry Buckley, Ralph Axtell
Articles
Ctenosaura melanosterna, a new species of spiny-tailed iguana, is described from the Aguan Valley and the Cayos Cochinos in Honduras. Its closest phylogenetic affinities are with C. palearis from the Motagua Valley in Guatemala with which it has previously been considered conspecific. Previous work on relationships within Ctenosaura presented evidence of a clade consisting of C. palearis (including the species described herein), C. bakeri, and C. oedirhina (de Queiroz, 1987a, 1987b; Kohler, 1995c). Data presented here adds additional support for this clade. Alternative biogeographic scenarios are discussed, with the conclusion that the current range of these species of Ctenosaura in …
To End Deferral As We Know It: Simplification Potential Of Check-The-Box, Reuven Avi-Yonah
To End Deferral As We Know It: Simplification Potential Of Check-The-Box, Reuven Avi-Yonah
Articles
On December 17, 1996, the Treasury Department issued final regulations under section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code implementing the regime dubbed "check-the-box," under which taxpayers can elect to be treated as corporations or as passthrough entities for U.S. tax purposes. The purpose of this article is to argue that the adoption of these regulations affords a momentous opportunity for Congress to achieve significant simplification of the notoriously complex U.S. international tax rules. Fundamentally, the adoption of check-the- box means that U.S. taxpayers will be able to elect whether or not their foreign-source active income will enjoy deferral from current …
A New Distributed Constant False Alarm Rate Detector, Hamid Amirmehrabi, R. Viswanathan
A New Distributed Constant False Alarm Rate Detector, Hamid Amirmehrabi, R. Viswanathan
Articles
A new constant false alarm rate (CFAR) test termed signal-plus-order statistic CFAR (S+OS) using distributed sensors is developed. The sensor modeling assumes that the returns of the test cells of different sensors are all independent and identically distributed. In the S+OS scheme, each sensor transmits its test sample and a designated order statistic of its surrounding observations to the fusion center. At the fusion center, the sum of the samples of the test cells is compared with a constant multiplied by a function of the order statistics. For a two-sensor network, the functions considered are the minimum of the order …
A Multibandwidth Probing Method For Tissue Scattering Microstructure Characterization, Navalgund Rao, Maria Helguera
A Multibandwidth Probing Method For Tissue Scattering Microstructure Characterization, Navalgund Rao, Maria Helguera
Articles
In medical ultrasound the normalized second intensity moments of the echo signal can depend on the imaging system resolution cell volume (axial and lateral resolution) in addiction to the scattering microstructure. The authors propose a multibandwidth probing technique in an attempt to separate the two. Theoretical relationships between second intensity moments, (scattering coefficients, scatterer spacing, and its randomness) and the system's cell volume are stablished. Experiments on water filled sponge structures with pore size varying from .5 mm to 2 mm and pig liver tissue are performed. The slope and intercept values from normalized second intensity moments versus (cell volume)-1 …
Psychophysical Evaluation Of Gamut Mapping Techniques Using Simple Rendered Images And Artificial Gamut Boundaries, Ethan Montag, Mark Fairchild
Psychophysical Evaluation Of Gamut Mapping Techniques Using Simple Rendered Images And Artificial Gamut Boundaries, Ethan Montag, Mark Fairchild
Articles
Using a paired comparison paradigm, various gamut mapping algorithms were evaluated using simple rendered images and artificial gamut boundaries. The test images consisted of simple rendered spheres floating in front of a gray background. Using CIELAB as our device-independent color space, cut-off values for lightness and chroma, based on the statistics of the images, were chosen to reduce the gamuts for the test images. The gamut mapping algorithms consisted of combinations of clipping and mapping the original gamut in linear piecewise segments. Complete color space compression in RGB and CIELAB was also tested. Each of the colored originals (R,G,B,C,M,Y, and …
Low Resistance Ohmic Contacts To P-Ge/Sub 1-X/C/Sub X/ On Si, Xiaoping Shao, Sean Rommel, B. Orner
Low Resistance Ohmic Contacts To P-Ge/Sub 1-X/C/Sub X/ On Si, Xiaoping Shao, Sean Rommel, B. Orner
Articles
We report on ohmic contact measurements of Al, Au, and W metallizations to p-type epitaxial Ge0:9983C0:0017 grown on a (100) Si substrate by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Contacts were annealed at various temperatures, and values of specific contact resistance have been achieved which range from 10/super-5/ Ω cm2 to as low as 5:6 X 10/super-6/ Ω cm2. Theoretical calculations of the contact resistance of metals on Ge/sub1-x/C/x/ with small percentages of carbon, based on the thermionic field emission mechanism of conduction, result in good agreement with the experimental data. We conclude that Al and Au are suitable ohmic contacts to …
Is There Really A Super-Massive Black Hole In M87?, Alessandro Marconi, David Axon, Duccio Macchetto
Is There Really A Super-Massive Black Hole In M87?, Alessandro Marconi, David Axon, Duccio Macchetto
Articles
We present the first HST long-slit spectrum of a gaseous disk around a candidate super-massive black-hole. The results of this study on the kinematics of the gaseous disk in M87 are a considerable improvement in both spatial resolution and accuracy over previous observations and requires a projected mass of MBH(sin i)2 = (2.0 ± 0.5)×109M⊙ (MBH = 3.2×109M⊙ for a disk inclination i = 52◦) concentrated within a sphere whose radius is less than 0.′′05 (3.5 pc) to explain the observed rotation curve. The kinematics of the ionized gas is well described by a thin disk in keplerian motion. A …

Real Estate 20:20, John Ratcliffe
Articles
This paper seeks to establish a framework for studying real estate futures. In doing so, it explores the general climate of change within which property decisions will have to be made, and examines the specific real estate opportunities that might emerge as a result of that change. For the purpose of appraisal, the forces of change are grouped into six sectors - cultural, demographic, economic, environmental, governmental and technological. Property perspectives are then portrayed for each of these sectors, and some conclusions drawn regarding the likely directions of change in the fields of real estate investment, development and management. Above …
