Sherman Shorts Out: The Dimming Of Antitrust Enforcement In The California Electricity Crisis, Robert B. Martin Iii Jan 2003

Sherman Shorts Out: The Dimming Of Antitrust Enforcement In The California Electricity Crisis, Robert B. Martin Iii

UC Law Journal

This Note examines the potential application of the Sherman Antitrust Act to alleged market manipulations by wholesale electricity generators during the California electricity crisis. Viewed in light of the national movement toward electricity deregulation, this Note summarizes accusations and reports of possible market power abuse by generators operating in California. This Note then analyzes the application of the Sherman Act to those alleged abuses. It determines that section I of the Sherman Act provides appropriate remedies for past market power abuse and serves as a sufficient deterrent to avoid similar abuse in the future.

My Life As A "Woman": Editing The World; And, Liberal Catholicism Reexamined, Margaret O'Brien Steinfels Jan 2003

My Life As A "Woman": Editing The World; And, Liberal Catholicism Reexamined, Margaret O'Brien Steinfels

Marianist Award Lectures

Margaret O'Brien Steinfels recounts her story as a woman in a high role in the workplace and the Catholic sphere. She highlights the supposed desire of American Catholics for a women's revolution in many aspects of Catholic life and the Church's response to such stances and voices. Peter Steinfels argues for an emergence and prominence in liberal Catholicism as a heroic stance to take amid the pains of the Church and of the world.

Battering, Forgiveness And Redemption, Brenda V. Smith Jan 2003

Battering, Forgiveness And Redemption, Brenda V. Smith

Project on Addressing Prison Rape - Articles

While there has been some acknowledgement that battered women kill, there has been less acceptance that battered women may have been arrested for some other offense. Can those fallible women be “forgiven” for their offenses and allowed to receive the community affirmation, validation, social services, and protection that other battered women receive? This Article focuses on a topic that, though discussed, has frequently been dismissed in the domestic violence discourse; battered women’s forgiveness of their batterers and battered women’s process of forgiving themselves for participating in the relationship.


The Ethical Responsibilities Of Estate Planning Attorneys In The Representation Of Non-Traditional Couples, Jennifer Tulin Mcgrath Jan 2003

The Ethical Responsibilities Of Estate Planning Attorneys In The Representation Of Non-Traditional Couples, Jennifer Tulin Mcgrath

Seattle University Law Review

This Article examines an estate planning attorney's ethical responsibilities when representing one type of non-traditional family: a non-traditional couple. Currently, there are four recognized ethical theories regarding the legal representation of individuals: individual representation; joint representation; intermediary representation; and family representation. This Article explores each of these ethical theories in connection with the representation of traditional couples. These ethical theories are then applied to the representation of nontraditional couples. Although any one of these ethical models may be utilized, this Article concludes that a modified version of family representation provides the estate planning attorney with the most appropriate ethical standard …

Culture And Contempt: The Limitations Of Expressive Criminal Law, Ted Sampsell-Jones

Seattle University Law Review

This article will look closely at one example of the operation of expressive criminal law. The example comes from the area of criminal drug policy, and will examine how expressive drug laws have functioned in the street subculture of urban minority communities. Part II, describes street ideology and the social meanings of …

Laos National Growth And Poverty Eradication Strategy, Lao People's Democratic Republic Jan 2003

Laos National Growth And Poverty Eradication Strategy, Lao People's Democratic Republic

Global CWD Repository

The National Growth and Poverty Eradication Strategy (NGPES) is the strategic framework under which all of the Government's future growth and poverty eradication programs will be developed and implemented. The NGPES is the result of a process that started in 1996 when the 6th Party Congress defined the long-term development objective as freeing the country from the status of least-developed country (LDC) by 2020. The NGPES is a comprehensive framework for growth and development, and has a particular focus on the improvement of the poverty situation in the poorest districts. It has thus a dual objective: enhancing growth and development, …

Images Of Engineering: An Investigation Of Gender And Attitudes Towards Engineering, Liz Hodgkinson Jan 2003

Images Of Engineering: An Investigation Of Gender And Attitudes Towards Engineering, Liz Hodgkinson

School of Law, Humanities and Social Sciences Theses

The research presented in this thesis used a mixed method approach to investigate the attitudes of sixth-form students in two British cities, towards engineering as a career, with the aim of finding out which factors encourage or discourage young people from becoming engineers, and whether these differ for males and females. The study can be set in the context of the declining popularity of engineering as a career choice for males and the continuing under-representation of females, for whom engineering is a non-traditional career choice. The principal research hypothesis was that negative images of engineering discourage girls and many boys …

Cosmetic Compliance And The Failure Of Negotiated Governance, Kimberly D. Krawiec Jan 2003

Cosmetic Compliance And The Failure Of Negotiated Governance, Kimberly D. Krawiec

Faculty Scholarship

Across a range of legal regimes - including environmental, tort, employment discrimination, corporate, securities, and health care law - United States law reduces or eliminates enterprise liability for those organizations that can demonstrate the existence of "effective" internal compliance structures. Presumably, this legal standard rests on an assumption that internal compliance structures reduce the incidence of prohibited conduct within organizations. This Article demonstrates, however, that little evidence exists to support that assumption. In fact, a growing body of evidence indicates that internal compliance structures do not deter prohibited conduct within firms and may largely serve a window-dressing function that provides …

Long-Term Effect Of Sea-Nine On Natural Coastal Phytoplankton Communities Assessed By Pollution Induced Community Tolerance, Dorthe K. Larsen, Inge Wagner, Kim Gustavson, Valery E. Forbes, Torben Lund

Valery Forbes Publications

Sea-Nine™211 has been introduced as a new biocide in antifouling paints with an immediate deg­radation when it is released from ship hulls. The active component of Sea-Nine™211 is 4,5-di­chloro-2-n-octyl-isothiazoline-3-one (DCOI). In the present study, the toxicity of DCOI and the oc­currence of Pollution Induced Community Tolerance (PICT) were tested in microcosms containing eutrophic coastal water with its natural composition of phytoplankton. The experiment was per­formed in closed systems with a single addition of the nominal concentrations 0, 3.2, 10, 32 and 100 nM DCOI, for a period of 16 days. Pollution induced community tolerance (PICT) was observed in the phytoplankton …
