Flagburning: A Constitutional Freedom, Craig Mordock Jan 1992

Flagburning: A Constitutional Freedom, Craig Mordock

Brigham Young University Prelaw Review

The United States stands apart from many other nations of the world because of institutions which grant American citizens specific freedoms. America's founding fathers drew up the U.S. Constitution to ensure fundamental rights for American citizens. The First Amendment asserts one of these basic rights: freedom of speech and expression. Most Americans respect this freedom, and they revere the Bill of Rights which protects it. Unfortunately, some Americans choose to exercise this freedom in a way that offends other people. Recently, a controversial issue has confronted Congress: should Americans be allowed to express themselves by burning the U.S. flag? A …


Limits Of First Amendment Rights, Troy Salisbury Jan 1992

Limits Of First Amendment Rights, Troy Salisbury

Brigham Young University Prelaw Review

Under the First Amendment of the Constitution such rights as the freedom of speech and assembly and other basic rights are set forth. People often feel that unpopular groups such as flag-burners or skinheads should have their First Amendment rights limited. Often individuals find it hard to tolerate the radical opinions of these groups. Nevertheless, their rights can only be restricted if, in the course of their actions, they directly infringe upon the rights of others. This point can be better illustrated by discussing a hypothetical situation in which a group's rights would have to be limited.


Kidwatching Going Beyond The Language Of The Test, Abha Gupta Jan 1992

Kidwatching Going Beyond The Language Of The Test, Abha Gupta

Teaching & Learning Faculty Publications

A study examined the linguistic forms in the discourse of speakers during a language test to indicate why they use certain specific forms over others. Ten children were given the Grammatical Analysis of Elicited Language--Simple Sentence Level Test (GAEL), a language proficiency test for hearing-impaired children in the age group of 4 to 8 years. Three students were videotaped during administration of the test, and the other students' final responses (omitting the intermediate discourse) were recorded. Some of the test items on which the maximum number of children deviated from the target response were analyzed for common traits and classified …


A Step Backwards In Products Liability Law- The Utah Supreme Court And Comment, Adam F. Trupp Jan 1992

A Step Backwards In Products Liability Law- The Utah Supreme Court And Comment, Adam F. Trupp

Utah Law Review

Recently, in Grundberg v. Upjohn Co.1 the Utah Supreme Court adopted a broad formulation of comment k to section 402A of the Restatement (Second) of Torts ("comment k").2 In so doing, the court placed Utah in the small group of jurisdictions providing immunity from strict liability design defect claims to all prescription drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration. By precluding a cause of action in strict liability for injuries arising from dangerously designed drugs, the Grundberg decision unduly restricts the scope of strict products liability claims. The purpose of this Comment is to provide a tour through the …


Court Rulemaking In Utah Following The 1985 Revision Of The Utah Constitution, Kent R. Hart Jan 1992

Court Rulemaking In Utah Following The 1985 Revision Of The Utah Constitution, Kent R. Hart

Utah Law Review

In 1985, Utah revised its constitution to grant the Utah Supreme Court power to make rules of procedure and evidence for the courts of the State. The new article eight, section four of the Utah Constitution ("Section Four") provides in part: "The Supreme Court shall adopt rules of procedure and evidence to be used in the courts of the state and shall by rule manage the appellate process" Prior to 1985 and the adoption of Section Four, the legislature possessed authority to adopt rules of procedure and evidence, but delegated that aiithority to the supreme court. Section Four establishes the …

Naomi Wolf, The Beauty Myth: Howimages Of Beauty Are Used Against Women, Anne C. Levy Jan 1992

Naomi Wolf, The Beauty Myth: Howimages Of Beauty Are Used Against Women, Anne C. Levy

Utah Law Review

What has happened to the ideal world which the "liberated" woman of the '70s envisioned for herself in the ensuing decades? That vision has been replaced with a harsh reality. Today, the world presents her not with the opportunity to experience the joy of continued movement toward self-fulfillment, power, and prestige, but rather with a need to constantly struggle to overcome gnawing and unsatisfiable feelings of inadequacy and low selfesteem reinforced by an ideal which always exceeds her grasp. Far from having attained the goals of the early women's movement, the woman of the '90s is more tired than energetic, …


Causation In Fact In Omission Cases, David A. Fischer Jan 1992

Causation In Fact In Omission Cases, David A. Fischer

Utah Law Review

Cause in fact is fundamental to imposing liability in many kinds of civil and criminal actions. The term refers to the causal link between an act or omission and resulting damage or injury. Lawyers, judges, and scholars frequently think of cause in fact as a purely factual question, unaffected by policy issues, that can be resolved adequately under normal burden of proof rules. In contrast, proximate or legal cause rules are explicitly intended to implement policy decisions concerning how far to extend the scope of liability. In routine cases the determination of cause in fact appears to be simple and …


The Ferrymen Of Elysium: Nostratic Eschatology And The Homeric Phaeacians, Erwin F. Cook Jan 1992

The Ferrymen Of Elysium: Nostratic Eschatology And The Homeric Phaeacians, Erwin F. Cook

Classical Studies Faculty Research

Belief that the Homeric Phaeacians belong to the afterlife is old; but its supporters have always found themselves in the minority. Friedrich Welcker, who first argued the point in 1833, held that the Phaeacians were ferrymen of the dead, and that Scheria was set in or near Elysium. Wilamowitz accepted Welcker's identification of the Phaeacians, and maintained that Arete and Alcinous were modeled on the underworld rulers Persephone and Hades. Rehearsal of the arguments advanced by these scholars reveals that the evidence has been incompletely and on occasion incorrectly applied; however, a modified version of their theory is still viable …


The Complexity Of Software Testing, J. Paul Myers Jr. Jan 1992

The Complexity Of Software Testing, J. Paul Myers Jr.

Computer Science Faculty Research

The futility of using a general-purpose metric to characterise 'the' complexity of a program has been argued to support the design of specific metrics for the different stages of the software life-cycle. An analysis of the module testing activity is performed, providing evidence of the absurdity of all-purpose metrics, as well as a methodical means with which to measure testing complexity. Several standard metrics are seen to serve as component measures for the intricacies of testing. The methodology is applied to compare traditional and adaptive means of testing. It is shown that previous informal arguments asserting the superiority of adaptive …

Justice In The Black Hawk War: The Trial Of Thomas Jose, Albert Winkler Jan 1992

Justice In The Black Hawk War: The Trial Of Thomas Jose, Albert Winkler

Faculty Publications

During Utah’s Black Hawk War 1865-1868 there were some instances of whites murdering Indians, and these people were never brought to trial. In 1866, Thomas Jose was brought to trial for killing an Indian, and he was convicted for murder. Even though his punishment was relatively mild, the justice system was made to work in defense of the Indians.

Representing African Music, Kofi Agawu Jan 1992

Representing African Music, Kofi Agawu

Publications and Research

Of all the currents of change that have swept the humanities during the last half-century, the most far-reaching revolve around language. Philosophy, history, and literary criticism, among other language-based disciplines, have developed what is often presented as a largely unprecedented self-consciousness about representation. The message to scholars in nonlanguage-based disciplines is clear: to be taken seriously, one can no longer view language as a transparent window to an objective reality but must confront the foundational political and ideological baggage of the medium itself, as well as its constant slippage in the hands of the producer.


Public Life And Hostility To Religion, Frederick Mark Gedicks Jan 1992

Public Life And Hostility To Religion, Frederick Mark Gedicks

Faculty Scholarship

Many who value the contributions of religion to American life have contended that American public life is hostile to religion. They perceive many of the Supreme Court's Religion Clause opinions as hostile to religion, and circulate anecdotes about the antireligious hostility of public life. Studies also suggest that some of the principle actors in American public life systematically marginalize religious viewpoints relative to secular ones. Nevertheless, others are baffled by the suggestion that public life discriminates against religion. These people note that religion is deeply (if controversially) involved in much of contemporary American politics, and dismiss anecdotes about such hostility …


Expression Of A Ribosomal Protein Gene In Axillary Buds Of Pea Seedlings, Joel P. Stafstrom, Ian M. Sussex Jan 1992

Expression Of A Ribosomal Protein Gene In Axillary Buds Of Pea Seedlings, Joel P. Stafstrom, Ian M. Sussex

Faculty Articles, Papers, and Other Scholarship

Axillary buds of intact pea seedlings (Pisum sativum L. cv Alaska) do not grow and are said to be dormant. Decapitation of the terminal bud promotes the growth of these axillary buds, which then develop in the same manner as terminal buds. We previously showed that unique sets of proteins are expressed in dormant and growing buds. Here we describe the cloning, sequencing, and expression of a cDNA clone (pGB8) that is homologous to ribosomal protein L27 from rat. RNA corresponding to this clone increases 13-fold 3 h after decapitation, reaches a maximum enhancement of about 35-fold after 12 h, …


Child-Parent Attachment Style And Adult Attachment Style As Predictors Of Psychological And Interpersonal Problems, Lisa Deutsch Nava Jan 1992

Child-Parent Attachment Style And Adult Attachment Style As Predictors Of Psychological And Interpersonal Problems, Lisa Deutsch Nava

Theses and Dissertations

The relationship among perceptions of child-parent attachment, current adult attachment style, psychological symptoms, and interpersonal problems was investigated. Subjects were 94 female undergraduate students at a large urban university in Richmond, Virginia. The modal age of the subjects was 22 years. Subjects were administered a packet comprised of six pencil-and-paper measures: Parental Caregiving Measure, Bartholomew Adult Attachment Style Questionnaire, Social Avoidance and Distress Scale, Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale, Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire-Revised, and Inventory of Interpersonal Problems. The results indicated that the set of child-parent attachment and adult attachment style variables significantly predicted fear of negative evaluation, social avoidance and …


Regulation Of Phosphatidylinositol 4-Kinase Activity In Rat Pancreatic Acini, Bruce R. Conway Jan 1992

Regulation Of Phosphatidylinositol 4-Kinase Activity In Rat Pancreatic Acini, Bruce R. Conway

Theses and Dissertations

The present report describes the characteristics and regulatory properties of phosphatidylinositol (Ptdlns) 4-kinase activity in rat exocrine pancreas. The membrane associated Ptdlns 4-kinase displayed a broad pH profile with optimal activity at neutral to alkaline pH. Carbachol (CCh) elicits a concentration- and time-dependent increase in Ptdlns 4-kinase activity in homogenates derived from agonist-stimulated acini. This effect was blocked by N-methylscopolamine and mimicked by muscarine. The enzyme had an apparent Km for Ptdlns and ATP of 4 and 60 uM, respectively. CCh caused no discernible change in the Km for either Ptdlns or ATP, but did produce a modest increase in …
