Trust Law, Corporate Law, And Capital Market Efficiency, Robert H. Sitkoff Dec 2003

Trust Law, Corporate Law, And Capital Market Efficiency, Robert H. Sitkoff

Law and Economics Papers

In both the publicly-traded corporation and the private donative trust a crucial task is to minimize the agency costs that arise from the separation of risk-bearing and management. But where the law of corporate governance evolved in the shadow of capital-market checks on agency costs, trust governance did not. Thus, even more than that of close corporations, the law and study of private trusts offers an illuminating counterfactual - a control, as it were - for a playful thought experiment about the importance of capital market efficiency to the law and study of public corporations. The animating idea for this …

He I Λ10830 As A Probe Of Winds In Accreting Young Stars, Suzan Edwards, William Fischer, John Kwan, L. Hillenbrand, Andrea K. Dupree

Astronomy: Faculty Publications

He I 10830 profiles acquired with Keck's NIRSPEC for six young low-mass stars with high disk accretion rates (AS 353A, DG Tau, DL Tau, DR Tau, HL Tau, and SVS 13) provide new insight into accretion-driven winds. In four of the stars, the profiles have the signature of resonance scattering, and they possess a deep and broad blueshifted absorption that penetrates more than 50% into the 1 m continuum over a continuous range of velocities from near the stellar rest velocity to the terminal velocity of the wind, unlike inner wind signatures seen in other spectral features. This deep and …


Barriers To Domestic Violence Screening In The Emergency Department, Lisa Yonaka Dec 2003

Barriers To Domestic Violence Screening In The Emergency Department, Lisa Yonaka

Master's Projects

Are you in a relationship in which you're being abused? That is not an easy question to answer or ask. Identification of those who are victims of domestic violence is important to prevent further abuse and injury. The purpose of this non-experimental study was to determine barriers of Emergency Department Registered Nurses screening patients for domestic violence. 33 ED RNs completed a short anonymous questionnaire that was developed by Dr. Mary Lou Moore, Wake Forrest University, Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The most significant barriers to screening identified, were the lack of education on how to ask questions about abuse, language barriers, …

Transportation Control Measures In The San Francisco Bay Area, Karoline Grigsby Dec 2003

Transportation Control Measures In The San Francisco Bay Area, Karoline Grigsby

Master's Projects

Throughout the later half of the century air pollution and its effects on the environment and human health has emerged as a focus of regulatory action at the federal and state level. This report will examine the effect that federal air quality legislation has had on regional air quality management through transportation control measures (TCMs). Federal transportation control measures (TCMs) are a transportation-planning tool for controlling regional air quality. TCMs are a means to control traffic congestion on streets and highways and to reduce the total amount of vehicle miles traveled (VMT), therefore reducing motor vehicle emissions and improving air …

You Can't Ask (Or Say) That: The First Amendment And Civil Rights Restrictions On Decisionmaker Speech, Helen L. Norton Dec 2003

You Can't Ask (Or Say) That: The First Amendment And Civil Rights Restrictions On Decisionmaker Speech, Helen L. Norton

Faculty Scholarship

Many antidiscrimination statutes limit speech by employers, landlords, lenders, and other decisionmakers in one or both of two ways: (1) by prohibiting queries soliciting information about an applicant's disability, sexual orientation, marital status, or other protected characteristic; and (2) by proscribing discriminatory advertisements or other expressions of discriminatory preference for applicants based on race, sex, age, sexual orientation, or other protected characteristics.

This Article explores how we might think about these laws for First Amendment purposes. Part I outlines the range of civil rights restrictions on decisionmaker speech, while Part II identifies the antidiscrimination and privacy concerns that drive their …

Las Tecnologías De La Información Y La Comunicación Y Los Indicadores De Evaluación Universitaria En España, Antonio Cardona Rodríguez, Miren Barrenetzea Ayesta Dec 2003

Las Tecnologías De La Información Y La Comunicación Y Los Indicadores De Evaluación Universitaria En España, Antonio Cardona Rodríguez, Miren Barrenetzea Ayesta

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

All institutions proclaim the importance of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in education, but is this taken into account when evaluating universities? Is it included in the evaluation indicators? In Spain, as in other neighboring countries, universities are immersed in a process of institutional evaluation. The indicator catalog is a fundamental part of the evaluation process. In this paper we make a brief analysis of the catalog of indicators proposed by the University Coordination Council in relation to its ability to measure the incorporation of ICT in universities.

Limestone Wall Retreat In A Ceiling Cupola Controlled By Hydrothermal Degassing With Wall Condensation (Szunyogh Model), Baudouin Lismonde Dec 2003

Limestone Wall Retreat In A Ceiling Cupola Controlled By Hydrothermal Degassing With Wall Condensation (Szunyogh Model), Baudouin Lismonde

KIP Articles

Audra, Bigot and Monochain (2003) proposed an explanation for the development of a hydrothermal cave in Provence (France), referring to the Szunyogh model (1989). Dreybrodt (2003) then shows by calculations that this model is unlikely. We will discuss Dreybrodt's answer here. Our conclusions will ephasise that Dreybrodt's hypothesis (transient conduction in a semi-infinite solid) is not the only possibility. When other conditions are considered (steady-state conduction with constant temperature at a finite distance), this cupola-development model can be valid.

From Schweizerhalle To Baia Mare: The Continuing Failure Of International Law To Protect Europe's Rivers, Aaron Schwabach Dec 2003

From Schweizerhalle To Baia Mare: The Continuing Failure Of International Law To Protect Europe's Rivers, Aaron Schwabach

Law Faculty Scholarship

Beginning on January 31, 2000, at least 100,000 cubic meters of highly polluted water escaped from a tailings dam at the Aurul gold mine in Baia Mare, Romania. The water flowed into the Somes, Tisza, and Danube Rivers, causing enormous environmental damage. Most of the damage occurred in Hungary, downstream from Baia Mare. Hungarian politicians called the spill “the first, most serious environment[al] catastrophe in the 21st century,” and “the worst ecological disaster in central Europe since Chernobyl in 1986.”

More striking than the resemblance to the Chernobyl disaster, though, was the resemblance to another 1986 environmental catastrophe: the Sandoz …
