Personal Ontologies, Michael N. Huhns, Larry M. Stevens

Faculty Publications

Corporations can suffer from too much information, and it is often inaccessible, inconsistent, and incomprehensible. The corporate solution entails knowledge management techniques and data warehouses. The paper discusses the use of the personal ontology. The promising approach is an organization scheme based on a model of an office and its information, an ontology, coupled with the proper tools for using it.

Women In The New Millennium: The Promises Of The Past Are Now The Problems For The Millennium, Lundy R. Langston

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article argues that the equality principle, while intended to promote gender equality, has failed to address the unique challenges and needs of women, particularly in legal and workplace contexts. Despite advancements in women's rights, structural disparities persist, with women bearing disproportionate burdens in caregiving, employment, and legal proceedings. The analysis critiques how courts and policies often ignore the biological and societal differences between men and women, leading to outcomes that perpetuate gender inequality. The article emphasizes the need for a more nuanced approach to equality that accounts for these differences and addresses systemic power imbalances.

Transformed And Transforming: What God Effects Through The Presence Of Christians In The World, Paul R. Nelson

Institute of Liturgical Studies Occasional Papers

(Excerpt)

On the model of mystagogy: remember your experience last night at the vigil, please, and recall these words from the eucharistic prayer: God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, open our eyes to see your hand at work in the world about us. Deliver us from the presumption of coming to this table for solace only and not for strength; for pardon only and not for renewal. Let the grace of this Holy Communion make us one body, one spirit in Christ that we may worthily serve the world in his name.' And from Welcome to Christ: Dear …

Processus Organisationnels Et Psycho-Sociaux Favorisant La Participation Des Travailleurs En Santé Et En Sécurité Du Travail, Marcel Simard, Marie-Claire Carpentier-Roy, Alain Marchand, François Ouellet

Rapports de recherche scientifique

Cette étude approfondit le phénomène de la participation directe des travailleurs à la prévention des lésions professionnelles, phénomène qui avait commencé à être exploré dans une recherche antérieure dont le rapport synthèse, intitulé La participation des travailleurs à la prévention des accidents du travail: formes, efficacité et déterminants a été publié par l'IRSST en 1997. Rappelons que ce phénomène réfère aux comportements préventifs que les travailleurs adoptent dans leur vie courante de travail, et à ce titre doit être distingué de la participation indirecte des travailleurs à la prévention qui s'exerce par l'intermédiaire de représentants sur le comité de …

This study presents the results of vibration measurements carried out on three different models of tanker trucks in which two different seat models with air suspension were installed. These results are used to evaluate, for each of the truck/seat combinations, the severity of the exposure with respect to ISO standard 2631/18^[1] , and to determine which of the truck/seat combinations provides an extended exposure time under similar operating conditions. Lastly, the IRSST effect of the load on the vibration levels is also evaluated.

Environmental Impact Assessment Laws In The Nineties: Can The United States And Mexico Learn From Each Other?, Heather N. Stevenson

University of Richmond Law Review

The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) was the first major environmental law in the United States. The statute "was devised to establish a comprehensive national policy which would ... guid[e] federal activity and provid[e] for a coordinated, informed approach toward dealing with environmental problems." Since NEPA's enactment, agencies have been "required to prepare environmental analyses, with input from the state and local governments, Indian tribes, the public, and other federal agencies, when considering a proposal for a major federal action." Although most of the environmental impact assessment law in the world is modeled on NEPA and the impact …

Mfn Relations With Communist Countries: Is The Two-Decade Old System Working, Or Should It Be Revised Or Repealed?, Taunya L. Mclarty

University of Richmond Law Review

Most Favored Nation ('MEN") trade status has been a cornerstone of U.S. trade policy since 1934, and it is extended to all nations except those specifically denied MFN status by U.S. law. Since 1934, the United States has used MFN status as leverage to further U.S. national security and foreign policy goals, and on a few occasions, has used it as a tool to obtain trade concessions.

Response: Continuing The Conversation, Akhil Reed Amar

University of Richmond Law Review

In The Bill of Rights: Creation and Reconstruction, I aimed to start a conversation, not end one. I am thus grateful for the generosity of the many fine scholars who in the preceding pages have graciously accepted the invitation to converse. And I am especially grateful for the extraordinary hospitality of the University of Richmond Law Review, which has kindly given a home to this conversation.

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Antitrust And Trade Regulation, Michael F. Urbanski, James R. Creekmore

University of Richmond Law Review

During the past year, the United States Supreme Court, in two decisions of significance, refused to summarily censure conduct having legitimate, procompetitive benefits. In similar fashion, the United States Court ofAppeals for the Fourth Circuit continued to scrutinize antitrust claims, rejecting those failing to measure up to pleading and proof requirements, while also reaffirming the vitality of the state action immunity doctrine as a bar to those that did. Meanwhile, Virginia's federal district courts grappled with time worn conspiracy challenges to medical staff privileging decisions, while simultaneously forging new ground in one of the first cases to consider market definition …

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Employment Law, Thomas M. Winn Iii

University of Richmond Law Review

"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." For both Virginia employers and employees alike, this sentiment rang true over the past year in the employment law arena, with both camps winning and losing battles as they litigated various employment law matters. This article discusses three principal areas where there was substantial activity in Virginia's courts: public policy wrongful discharge claims; negligent hiring, retention, and supervision claims; and the enforcement of noncompetition agreements. Beyond the scope of this article are decisions rendered in other areas of law affecting the employment relationship, including the areas of workers' …

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Legal Issues Involving Children, Robert E. Shepherd Jr.

University of Richmond Law Review

The Virginia General Assembly once again acted in a very restrained fashion in addressing juvenile justice issues in the lengthening wake after the extensive statutory changes in 1994 and 1996. The newly enacted juvenile competency statute is an important innovation contained in the new article 18 oftitle 16.1 of the Virginia Code, and a study by the Virginia Bar Association on the applicability of the insanity defense in juvenile delinquency proceedings will further address the implications of mental health problems for children in trouble. One major issue in the delinquency area that arose during the past year involved the necessity …

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: 1999 Technology Legislation In Virginia, Diane E. Horvath, John S. Jung

Context And Culpability In Adolescent Crime, Jeffrey A. Fagan

Faculty Scholarship

This Essay merges the perspectives of context and decision-making to assess the role of contextual factors in the unfolding of violent events by adolescents. The framework for decision-making assumes that context is a dynamic rather than a static feature of the cognitive landscape. Decisions by adolescents to engage in crime or violence are shaped through interactions with features of their environments, are contingent on responses emanating from that context, and are filtered through the unique lens of adolescence. Rather than assuming discrete and independent components in a decision framework, this Essay assumes that decisions are the product of interactions across …
