Speech And Speech - Obscenity And Obscenity: An Exercise In The Interpretation Of Constitutional Language, Frederick Schauer Jan 1979

Speech And Speech - Obscenity And Obscenity: An Exercise In The Interpretation Of Constitutional Language, Frederick Schauer

Faculty Publications

Commentators have criticized the Supreme Court's use of the "two-level" theory of speech to place obscenity beyond the pale of the first amendment. They charge the Court with shirking the task of balancing first amendment values and the states' interests in regulating obscene material. Professor Schauer meets this criticism by examining the meaning of the word "speech" in the context of the purposes of the first amendment and the Constitution as a whole. He concludes that "speech"does not include a category.of obscenity'that performs the function of a surrogate sexual act and is lacking in communicative content. The Court's treatment of …

Fees For Information Services To Hospitals: A California Experience, Lawrence W. Onsager, George V. Summers Phd Oct 1978

Fees For Information Services To Hospitals: A California Experience, Lawrence W. Onsager, George V. Summers Phd

Faculty Publications

The project was directed toward planning, developing, and implementing a subregional biomedical information network among the forty-three health care facilities (hospitals) of the four-county area served by Loma Linda University's health sciences library. The project coordinator contacted administrators and health care professionals in the forty-three institutions to present a plan for the network. The health care facilities were encouraged to support the continuation of the network through contract fees. The availability of specific information services was assured through contractual agreements. It was anticipated that the subregional network would be self-supporting after the twelve-month project period (December 1, 1976-November 30, 1977). …

Locus Of Control, Knowledge Of Ethics, And Perceived Ethicality As Influenced By An Authority Figure, F. Matthew Mihelic, William G. Connolly May 1978

Locus Of Control, Knowledge Of Ethics, And Perceived Ethicality As Influenced By An Authority Figure, F. Matthew Mihelic, William G. Connolly

Faculty Publications

The present study investigated the relationship between a subject's locus of control, knowledge of psychological ethical research principles, and perceived ethicality of a psychological research proposal as influenced by an authority figure. Subjects were asked to judge the ethicality of a research proposal, which half were led to believe had been previously deemed unethical by an authority figure. No mention was made of the authority figure's viewpoint to the other subjects. The major finding was that the variability in ratings in ethicality of the research proposal tended to diminished from the no mention to the rejection manipulation in those of …

Field Response Of The Southern Pine Beetle To Behavioral Chemicals, T.L. Payne, Jack E. Coster, L.J. Edson, E.R. Hart, J.V. Richerson Jan 1978

Field Response Of The Southern Pine Beetle To Behavioral Chemicals, T.L. Payne, Jack E. Coster, L.J. Edson, E.R. Hart, J.V. Richerson

Faculty Publications

Field tests were conducted in East Texas in 1973-77 to evaluate the influence of 7 behavioral chemicals on the flight and landing behavior of the southern pine beetle, Dendroctonus frontalis Zimmerman. A mixture of frontalin plus host tree volatiles attracted flying beetles within an infestation. Trans-verbenol synergized the activity of frontalin and substituted for host tree volatiles, expinene and loblolly turpentine. Verbenone in a 1: 1 ratio with frontalin did not significantly affect trap catch. At higher concentrations of verbenone, trap catch was significantly reduced. Endobrevicomin inhibited trap catch when added to an attractant-baited trap. Exo-brevicomin showed no …


Probability Of Attack By Southern Pine Beetle In Relation To Distance From An Attractive Host Tree, Paul C. Johnson, Jack E. Coster Jan 1978

Probability Of Attack By Southern Pine Beetle In Relation To Distance From An Attractive Host Tree, Paul C. Johnson, Jack E. Coster

Faculty Publications

The pattern of southern pine beetle (SPB) attack was examined in two infestations in East Texas to determine the probability of host tree attack (PA) as a function of distance (X) from a recently attacked tree (pheromone source). In an infestation having a low rate of newly attacked trees per day and only a few pheromone sources occurring simultaneously, distance was a critical factor in determining PA. The probability decreased as In X, and was described by the regression model, PA=0.06757- 0.2583 In X. Distance, however, was less critical in a larger infestation which had multiple pheromone sources occurring simultaneously …


A Simple Model For Predicting Annual Numbers Of Southern Pine Beetle Infestations In East Texas, James Kroll, Hershel C. Reeves Jan 1978

A Simple Model For Predicting Annual Numbers Of Southern Pine Beetle Infestations In East Texas, James Kroll, Hershel C. Reeves

Faculty Publications

Eleven climatic variables, recorded during the period 1966-76, were used to develop a multiple linear regression model for predicting potential number of southern pine beetle (SPB) infestations for east Texas. Four climatic variables were significantly (P < 0.05) related to numbers of SPB infestations. These were (1) mean temperature for February of current year, (2) total rainfall for previous summer, (3) total rain fall for previous fall, and (4) total rainfall for previous spring. The regression analysis accounted for 90.7 percent of the variation in yearly numbers of SPB infestations.

Timing Of Some Of The Molecular Events Required For Cell Fusion Induced By Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1, K. G. Kousoulas, S. Person, T. C. Holland Jan 1978

Timing Of Some Of The Molecular Events Required For Cell Fusion Induced By Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1, K. G. Kousoulas, S. Person, T. C. Holland

Faculty Publications

The timing of some of the molecular events that are required for cell fusion was investigated. Cell fusion was produced by a mutant of herpes simplex virus type 1 that causes extensive cell fusion during infection. The timing of molecular events required for fusion was established by the use of blocking agents. Phosphonoacetic acid blocks viral DNA synthesis; actinomycin D blocks RNA synthesis; cycloheximide blocks protein synthesis; 2-deoxyglucose blocks glycosylation of glycoproteins; high temperature, NH4Cl, and adamantanone block unknown steps required for cell fusion. For cells infected at a low multiplicity of infection, phosphonoacetic acid decreased the rate but not …

Board Of Curators Of The University Of Missouri V. Horowitz: Academic Versus Judicial Expertise, R. Lawrence Dessem

Faculty Publications

In Board of Curators of the University of Missouri v. Horowitz' the United States Supreme Court rejected the argument that public university students are constitutionally entitled to a hearing prior to their dismissal from school for academic reasons. In ruling against a former medical student at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, the Court concluded that "the determination whether to dismiss a student for academic reasons requires an expert evaluation of cumulative information and is not readily adapted to the procedural tools of judicial or administrative decisionmaking. ' In this article that conclusion and the several opinions in Horowitz will be …


Secrecy And Real Property, Dale A. Whitman Jan 1978

Secrecy And Real Property, Dale A. Whitman

Faculty Publications

It is not unusual for owners of real property to wish to conceal from government or the public either the fact of their ownership or certain salient characteristics of the property they hold. The objective of this article is to consider the extent to which this desire for secrecy is supported by sound policy and American legal doctrine. It will focus on the civil recourse available to an owner of real property against private persons who, without the owner's knowledge and consent, reveal information about the ownership or physical characteristics of the property. The article will also consider whether the …


Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Characterization Of Heme Disorder In Hemoproteins, G. N. La Mar, D. L. Budd, D. B. Viscio, K. M. Smith, K. C. Langry Jan 1978

Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Characterization Of Heme Disorder In Hemoproteins, G. N. La Mar, D. L. Budd, D. B. Viscio, K. M. Smith, K. C. Langry

Faculty Publications

A proton NMR method is described for determining the orientation of a porphyrin within the heme pocket of a hemoprotein. The pattern of the hyperfine-shifted heme methyl resonances in low-spin ferric model compounds is demonstrated to characteristically reflect the position of a localized low-symmetry perturbation on the π system. The specific assignments via deuteration of the two inconvertible sets of methyl resonances observed for deuteroporphyrin-reconstituted sperm whale metmyoglobin cyanide lead to the conclusion that the low-symmetry perturbations on the heme due to the apoprotein components by a 180°rotation about the α-γ meso axis. Hence the heme in the reconstituted myoglobin …


Trends In Mortality From Cerebrovascular Diseases In The United States, 1960 To 1975, Ivan Soltero, Kiang Liu, Richard Cooper, Jeremiah Stamler, Dan Garside Jan 1978

Trends In Mortality From Cerebrovascular Diseases In The United States, 1960 To 1975, Ivan Soltero, Kiang Liu, Richard Cooper, Jeremiah Stamler, Dan Garside

Faculty Publications

A long-term decline in death rates from cerebrovascular diseases in the United States accelerated in 1969, with a further increase in the rate of decline after 1972. This break in the pattern of the mortality curve for stroke was observed in all 4 major sex-color groups, and affected all age groups in which a significant number of stroke deaths occur. The decline for non-whites was relatively and absolutely greater than for the comparable white sex. If the 1960 rates had persisted in 1975, 87,600 more lives would have been lost to cerebrovascular diseases. Although there are no data documenting a …

Conspiracy: The Criminal Agreement, In Theory And In Practice, Paul Marcus Apr 1977

Conspiracy: The Criminal Agreement, In Theory And In Practice, Paul Marcus

Faculty Publications

Professor Marcus combines empirical research and theoretical analysis in this comprehensive study of the conspiracy doctrine. The article shows that the theoretical reasons for the conspiracy doctrine are inapplicable to most actual conspiracy prosecutions and that the practical reasons for conspiracy charges are often unacceptable prosecutorial shortcuts. Although ultimately concluding that the conspiracy doctrine is needed in some limited instances, Professor Marcus indicates that prosecutors should bring conspiracy charges only when justified by proper reasons and that courts should consider such charges more carefully.
