Faculty Publications

Cost estimates of practicing forestry in the South during 1986 and cost changes during the 1952-1986 period are presented in this report. Albert C. Worrell reported the original cost study in Forest Farmer in May 1953. His work was updated by James G. Yoho and Robert B. Fish in the November 1961 issue of Forest Farmer. Other revisions include James G. Yoho, George F . Dutrow, and James Moak (Forest Farmer, 1971); James Moak and Jim Kucera (Forest Farmer, 1975); James Moak, James Kucera, and W.F.

Spoil Banks: Effects On A Coastal Marsh Water-Level Regime, Erick M. Swenson, R. Eugene Turner Jan 1987

Spoil Banks: Effects On A Coastal Marsh Water-Level Regime, Erick M. Swenson, R. Eugene Turner

Faculty Publications

Above- and below-ground water-level fluctuations were measured in the marshes south of New Orleans, Louisiana, between November 1982 and December 1983. The purpose of the program was to defme the basic marsh water-level regime and to investigate how canal spoil banks may influence the water-level regime. Two study areas were used: (1) a control area, defined as a section of marsh with unrestricted hydrologic connection to an adjacent bayou; and, (2) a partially-impounded area, defined as an area with limited hydrologic connection to an adjacent bayou due to the presence of dredged canal spoil banks. Data sources included marsh water …

A New Theory Of Assent-Based Liability Emerging Under The Guise Of Promissory Estoppel: An Explanation And Defense, Juliet P. Kostritsky Jan 1987

A New Theory Of Assent-Based Liability Emerging Under The Guise Of Promissory Estoppel: An Explanation And Defense, Juliet P. Kostritsky

Faculty Publications

This Article will demonstrate that these apparently divergent approaches (bargain and promissory estoppel) share unifying elemental criteria that situate them all squarely within an assent-based theory of enforceability. This Article differs from scholarship that depicts promissory estoppel as having a different conceptual or theoretical basis for enforcement. This Article posits that promissory estoppel, together with other orthodox doctrines, are merely substitute doctrinal methods for showing the assent required for an enforceable consensual exchange.

Securing Justice: A Response To William Bradford Reynolds, Michael A. Middleton Jan 1987

Securing Justice: A Response To William Bradford Reynolds, Michael A. Middleton

Faculty Publications

I doubt that William Bradford Reynolds would disagree that the self evident truths the Framers of the Declaration of Independence spoke about are as applicable today in the 1980's as they were over 200 years ago. I also doubt that Mr. Reynolds would disagree that despite the fact that black people were not considered human beings when the Constitution was framed, the fourteenth amendment to that great document was intended to bring them within the ambit of its protections. On these two basic propositions, I suspect, Mr. Reynolds and I would agree. Beyond that however, Mr. Reynolds advances a fundamentally …

Liquid Crystals From Poly(4,4'-Methoxybiphenylyl Methacrylate)., R. Duran, D. Guillon, Ph Gramain, A. Skoulios Jan 1987

Liquid Crystals From Poly(4,4'-Methoxybiphenylyl Methacrylate)., R. Duran, D. Guillon, Ph Gramain, A. Skoulios

Faculty Publications

Side-chain liquid crystalline poly(4,4'-biphenylyl methacrylate) was studied by x-ray diffraction. Three smectic phases were described using a ribbon-like structural model for the polymer chain. In the smectic S//P phase, ribbons lie flat on their sides to form layers with a spacing equal to the thickness of the ribbons. In the smectic S//A phase, the ribbons stand upright giving layers with a thickness corresponding to the length of one extended monomeric unit. In the ordered smectic S//O phase, the layer thickness also corresponds to one extended repeat unit, and the pendant groups are arranged according to a two-dimensional oblique lattice. The …

The Scope Of Liability Under Section 12 Of The Federal Securities Act Of 1933: 'Participation' And The Pertinent Legislative Materials, Douglas E. Abrams Jan 1987

The Scope Of Liability Under Section 12 Of The Federal Securities Act Of 1933: 'Participation' And The Pertinent Legislative Materials, Douglas E. Abrams

Faculty Publications

Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1933 creates two private rights of action, each providing in relevant part that ‘ a ny person who offers or sells a security . . . shall be liable to the person purchasing such security from him . . ..’ Because suit may be maintained only by the person who purchases the security from defendant, an offeror may incur section 12 liability only if the offeror also ‘sells' the security to the plaintiff. Section 12(1) imposes liability on any seller whose offer or sale violates the Act's registration or prospectus requirements found in …

Part II comments upon existing statutory and common law limitations on the discretion of trustee-investors to adopt policies of social investing.

A Few Still Later Words On Translating Homer, Or C. S. Calverley And The Victorian Parodic, Patrick G. Scott Jan 1987

A Few Still Later Words On Translating Homer, Or C. S. Calverley And The Victorian Parodic, Patrick G. Scott

Faculty Publications

Argues (largely in the style of Matthew Arnold) that the Victorian verse parodist C.S. Calverley can best be understood through 19th century ideas of verse translation, and especially through the writing on parody of the Scottish lawyer Alexander Fraser Tytler, Lord Woodhouselee, in his Essay on the Principles of Translation (1792).

When Are Merger Clauses Unconscionable?, Kerry L. Macintosh Jan 1987

When Are Merger Clauses Unconscionable?, Kerry L. Macintosh

Faculty Publications

Imagine the following scenario: buyer, a typical consumer wishing to obtain goods or services, visits seller. Anxious to close the deal, seller impresses buyer with oral representations and promises concerning the goods or services. Buyer, enticed into making the purchase, signs a preprinted form contract, failing either to notice or understand this deceptively harmless looking provision: "This writing is the final and entire agreement of the parties and there are no other representations, promises, warranties or agreements of any kind." Buyer later discovers that the goods or services do not live up to seller's representations and promises. Angry, buyer sues …
