A Closer Look At Good News V. Milford: What Are The Implications? (Stay Tuned) , John E. Dunsford

Seattle University Law Review

This article will examine: (1) whether Lamb's Chapel should control; (2) whether there is a relevant distinction between religious viewpoint and subject matter; (3) whether a forum open to much of the public may be limited to others; (4) whether the presence of prayer and worship should affect the right of a private organization to access public property; and (5) whether such use of public property violates the Establishment Clause.

Whatever Happens To Works Deferred?: Reflections On The Ill-Given Deferments Of The Copyright Term Extension Act, J. Michael Keyes

Seattle University Law Review

In contrast to the limited judicial writings on the CTEA, there is a healthy stock of insightful scholarly works on the CTEA festooning the legal journals throughout the country. This article leaps into the scholarly fray and focuses on the domestic policy justifications and assumptions relied upon by Congress in enacting the CTEA. In so doing, this article argues that the CTEA is premised upon a wayward copyright philosophy and unsupported congressional assumptions. The article also posits a modest alternative to the CTEA that would be more consonant with the philosophical tenets of copyright and more apt to achieve the …

Discoverability Of "Deleted" E-Mail: Time For A Closer Examination , Michael Marron

Seattle University Law Review

This Comment will argue that the discovery rules presently require disclosure of an unacceptable amount of information. Part II of this Comment will outline some of e-mail's advantages over other communications media to help explain the rapid rise in e-mail use. Part III will then explain, in layman's terms, how e-mail actually works and discuss some of the reasons why e-mail archives are often considered as likely to contain “smoking gun” messages—the kind of evidence that can drastically affect the outcome of a case. But what is it about e-mail that can make it such a potent evidentiary weapon? The …

Classroom Analysis Of Ross Perot And Diversity Using C-Span As A Data Base, Jim Schnell

Iowa Journal of Communication

Goal: To enhance student understanding of variables that comprise and impact the process of defining what connotes sensitivity and insensitivity with diversity issues and how journalistic interpretation can affect our perception via mass media.

This article presents a unique means for classroom analysis of the blend of politics and diversity issues. A primary objective in the development of my classroom assignments is to construct activities that convey theoretical understanding and illustrate correlation between theory and real world application. Theory and the application of theory should be woven into the fabric of knowledge. The use of C-SPAN videotapes, available from the …

Changing The Quality Of Conflict Interaction: The Principles And Practice Of Transformative Mediation, Robert A. Baruch Bush, Sally Ganong Pope

Hofstra Law Faculty Scholarship

Many practitioners now identify themselves as transformative mediators, who practice from the transformative perspective in some or all of their work. This article explains the unique character of transformative mediation by offering answers to three basic questions: Why is transformative mediation being sought and used by parties in conflict? What is the basic nature of the mediation process, especially the mediator's role, according to this model? How does a mediator work with the parties in transformative mediation? Answering these three questions why, what and how-will provide the reader a good overview of the transformative model in theory and practice. We …

Clarifying The Theoretical Underpinnings Of Mediation: Implications For Practice And Policy, Dorothy J. Della Noce, Robert A. Baruch Bush, Joseph P. Folger

Hofstra Law Faculty Scholarship

In this article we examine developments in explaining and understanding "the when and why" of mediation practice - from the "lay theories" that have informed much of the field, to Bush and Folger's articulation of three distinct and coherent ideologically based theoretical frameworks: the problemsolving framework, the harmony framework, and the transformative framework. We then trace the development of the transformative framework since its articulation in 1994, and share the insights we have gained along the way regarding the impact of increasing theoretical clarity and differentiation in the mediation field. We conclude with a discussion of the implications of ideologically …

How Does The Community Feel About Problem-Solving Courts?, Michele Bertran, Mary Barr, Charles Grodin, Monroe H. Freedman, Jacqueline Nolan-Haley

Hofstra Law Faculty Scholarship

When I was a young man, I was doing a lot of civil rights, civil liberties, and indigent criminal defense work, and I believed in the constitutionalized adversarial system. I believed in the constitutional rights of the Fifth Amendment and the Sixth Amendment, due process of law, the right to the effective assistance of counsel, the right to trial including an advocate who was going to be your champion against a hostile world.

I believed in the standard of proof beyond a reasonable doubt. I believed in the right to confront witnesses against you, the privilege against self-incrimination, equal protection …

E-Buyer Beware: Why Online Auction Fraud Should Be Regulated, Miriam R. Albert

Hofstra Law Faculty Scholarship

Part of a special issue on cyber law. The increasing use of the Internet as a medium of commerce has led to an increase in Internet fraud, raising new and challenging legal issues in areas including online auctions. Under current law, a defrauded participant in an online auction transaction has no recourse against the online auction site. However, the FTC should apply its substantial regulatory authority to the creation of binding regulations for online auction sites. Such regulations should include ideas such as authenticating participants' identities, limiting the number of user names per participant, verifying the creditworthiness of participants, offering …

The Constitution As Family Arbiter: A Moral In The Mess?, Janet L. Dolgin

Hofstra Law Faculty Scholarship

Two interconnected social upheavals that occurred in the second half of the twentieth century underlie an intensifying legal debate about the conception of family. First, Western culture openly challenged a set of assumptions that supported a vision of family as hierarchical, holistic, and almost completely separate from the marketplace. Second, a group of social institutions (including schools, churches, and voluntary communal groups) that once anchored moral debate began to recede in significance. To these upheavals, American law has increasingly responded by eliding traditional legal responses to family issues and by seeking moral direction from constitutional principles. The second of these …

The Social Welfare Of Advertising To Children, Dennis D. Crouch

Faculty Publications

The aim of this Comment is to approach the issue of advertising to children through an examination of economic incentives and efficiency. The Comment ultimately makes the claim that televised advertisement of products, such as junk food, directed toward children may be inefficient and tend to decrease social welfare. Although they may be compelling, this paper does not rely on the secondary negative externalities often associated with television, such as the cost of treating diabetes and heart disease. Rather, the inefficiency discussed in the Comment involves the informational qualities of advertising. Advertising directed towards young children can be thought of …

Nt 511 X The Gospel Of Mark, David Loren Thompson

Syllabi

A. Regarding method and content, by the end of the course students will: 1. Distinguish between each of the major phases of inductive Scripture study: observation, interpretation, evaluation, application; 2. Analyze content and structure of a selected passage from the book of Mark, and locate that passage accurately in its immediate context as well as the larger, book context; 3.

Situate a text’s teaching in the Bible’s larger …

Nt 511 The Gospel Of Mark, David Loren Thompson

Syllabi

This course seeks to introduce the various aspects of methodical, inductive Bible study, especially observation and interpretation. It intends, by study of Mark’s Gospel, to foster Bible study which values orderly procedure, direct personal contact with the text, analysis of relations which hold between text units, and recognition of the book as the crucial context for interpretation. The English Bible will serve as the text of entry for the study, with emphasis also on appropriate use of the Greek New Testament and “original language” skills and tools for interpreting the book of Mark.

Scoring Sentences Developmentally: An Analog Of Developmental Sentence Scoring, Amy Seal

Theses and Dissertations

A variety of tools have been developed to assist in the quantification and analysis of naturalistic language samples. In recent years, computer technology has been employed in language sample analysis. This study compares a new automated index, Scoring Sentences Developmentally (SSD), to two existing measures. Eighty samples from three corpora were manually analyzed using DSS and MLU and the processed by the automated software. Results show all three indices to be highly correlated, with correlations ranging from .62 to .98. The high correlations among scores support further investigation of the psychometric characteristics of the SSD software to determine its clinical …

Aboriginal English Genres In Perth, Ian G. Malcolm

Research outputs pre 2011

Aboriginal Australia has a unique heritage of oral literature and Aboriginal people of all ages take delight in yarning. Despite the richness and contemporary relevance of this heritage, little is known in the wider Australian society about the oral discourse skills that are taken for granted in Aboriginal communities.

Although the art of oral narrative has developed over countless generations and by medium of Indigenous languages, previous studies (Malcolm 1994a, b; Malcolm and Rochecouste 2000; Rochecouste and Malcolm 2000) have shown that it is vigorously maintained in Aboriginal English.

The lack of general awareness of the verbal art of Aboriginal …

Foreign Direct Investment In Latin America Overview And Current Status, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah, Martin B. Tittle

Other Publications

More firms than ever, and in more industries and countries, are expanding abroad through [foreign] direct investment [FDI]. Although FDI in 1980 was equivalent to only 5% of world GDP, by the end of the 1990's, that percentage had more than tripled to 17%. In 1993, the total US dollar value of world FDI was only US$ 200 billion, but by the year 2000, it had risen to US$ 1.3 thousand billion. Developing countries received around 25% of these inflows, mostly in the form of "greenfield" investments, where a new enterprise is essentially created from scratch.
