Freedom Of The Will, Allen C. Guelzo Jan 2005

Freedom Of The Will, Allen C. Guelzo

Civil War Era Studies Faculty Publications

The exact nature of the human will is, like the nature of human consciousness, a question so subjective and so interior that no one is ever likely to arrive at a satisfactory judgment about how it functions or even what it is-which may be the best proof that philosophy is not a science, and the best evidence that those social sciences which try to measure, quantify, and control aspects of human consciousness are not sciences either. Still, there is no denying that we are aware of a power or an impulse within us which transJates thought into action, or at …

A Public Interest Model For Applying Lost Chance Theory To Probabilistic Injuries In Employment Discrimination Cases, Paul M. Secunda Jan 2005

A Public Interest Model For Applying Lost Chance Theory To Probabilistic Injuries In Employment Discrimination Cases, Paul M. Secunda

Faculty Publications

This article assesses Judge Posner's opinion in Doll v. Brown, suggesting that lost chance theory be applied to probabilistic injuries in competitive hiring and promotion cases involving employment discrimination. I agree with Judge Posner that the lost chance remedial approach, derived from medical malpractice law, has a proper role to play in determining just and equitable remedies in this employment discrimination context. But I argue for a public interest model to appropriately take into account the public interest emphasis of employment discrimination law. I argue that courts should utilize a modified version of lost chance theory to award punitive-like equitable …

Glycyrrhizin: A Review, Amrit Pal Singh Jan 2005

Glycyrrhizin: A Review, Amrit Pal Singh

Ethnobotanical Leaflets

Glycyrrhizin is a triterpenoid saponin found in Glychyrrhiza glabra (licorice). Chemically, glycyrrhizin is a sulphated polysaccharide. It is considered to the active constituent of the drug and the standardization of licorice is based on glycyrrhizin content. The standardized extracts of licorice sold in the market contain 20% of glychrrhizin. Glycyrrhizin is converted into glychyrrhetic acid by an enzyme, glycaronidase.

Letters To Home...Vietnam Soldiers Letters, Diana Garner, Historical Administration Jan 2005

Letters To Home...Vietnam Soldiers Letters, Diana Garner, Historical Administration

Propaganda, Patriotism, and Protest - Docs

Diana Garner was a student at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana when she began to write to soldiers stationed in Vietnam during 1968-1969. A friend encouraged her to place her name in the Sea Tiger, a magazine published by the military. Diana began receiving letters from the soldiers shortly after placing her address in the magazine. She continued to write to a few of the soldiers for some time but eventually lost contact with all of her soldier pen-pals. The letters mostly focus on the mundane activities in the life of a soldier but occasionally glimpses of the fear …

Control System Design And Simulation Of Spacecraft Formations, Daniel Dyer Jan 2005

Control System Design And Simulation Of Spacecraft Formations, Daniel Dyer

Master's Theses - Daytona Beach

The objective of this thesis is to analyze an effective control scheme for a formation of spacecraft, implement that control, and provide a 3-D simulation. The thesis first summarizes the progress made in formation flight control schemes and then provides a theoretical framework for the control system design. Using established control design techniques, feedback laws are constructed to control both rotational and translational motion of a group of spacecraft. Computer simulations are carried out using Matlab to generate the ephemeris and attitude data, which are exported to Satellite Tool Kit (STK) to create animations. The process by which Matlab is …

The "Comity" Of Empagran: The Supreme Court Decides That Foreign Competition Regulation Limits American Antitrust Jurisdiction Over International Cartels, Sam F. Halabi Jan 2005

The "Comity" Of Empagran: The Supreme Court Decides That Foreign Competition Regulation Limits American Antitrust Jurisdiction Over International Cartels, Sam F. Halabi

Faculty Publications

The equivocal language of the 1982 Foreign Trade Antitrust Improvements Act ("FTAIA") has led to several disputes concerning when victims of international price-fixing can bring suit under U.S. antitrust law. Recently, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in E Hoffmann-La Roche, Ltd. v. Empagran S.A. ("Empagran") that the doctrine of "comity among nations" limited the reach of U.S. anti-trust law over foreign plaintiffs who claim injury in nations where other competition regulations exist. This article argues that Empagran misapplies the doctrine of comity. Part II traces the history of the FTAIA, which was passed to define the limits on participation by …

Journal Articles: Pharmacology & Experimental Neuroscience

A study was conducted to determine the effect of culling BVDV carrier animals on the seroconversion against BVDV in the new generation of heifers from a dairy herd located in Arequipa, Peru. Blood samples were collected from 6-12 month old females in four sampling periods: January (n = 73), June (n = 48), October 2003 (n = 48), and January 2004 (n = 35) to evaluate their serological against BVDV status and to screen for carrier animals using the virus neutralization and antigen-capture ELISA tests, respectively. The prevalence of BVDV was 80.8 ± 9.0, 56.3 ± 14.0, 50.0 ± 14.2 …

A Further Consideration Of Galdosian Cultural Nicknames: Mythological, Legendary, And Historical Personages, Vernon A. Chamberlin Jan 2005

A Further Consideration Of Galdosian Cultural Nicknames: Mythological, Legendary, And Historical Personages, Vernon A. Chamberlin

Decimonónica

Galdós’s use of nicknames has been addressed both directly and indirectly in various studies,1 but much remains to be noted about how historical, legendary, and mythological personages served as source material for sobriquets to designate Galdosian characters. So important were these nicknames to Galdós’s artistry that he would sometimes change the apodo in the Alpha manuscript to a different one in the final printed version. Moreover, the history-based nicknames, which do so much to enliven Galdós’s novels and Episodios are a feature in common with other nineteenth-century novelists, most notably Alas, Pereda, and Pardo Bazán.

Racismo Y Nación: Conflictos Y (Des)Armonías Identitarias En El Proyecto Nacional Sarmientino*, David Solodkow Jan 2005

Racismo Y Nación: Conflictos Y (Des)Armonías Identitarias En El Proyecto Nacional Sarmientino*, David Solodkow

Decimonónica

Durante el siglo XIX asistimos, tanto en América Latina como en el Caribe, a una suerte de proliferación de discursos sociales asociados a los diversos proyectos de construcción de los estados nacionales.1 Se trata de discursos complejos, de reapropiaciones de modelos teóricos procedentes de Europa y Norteamérica que terminarán por formar saberes locales y heterogéneos,2 atravesados por una destemporalidad periférica de la intelectualidad latinoamericana. Existe un espacio nacional que comienza a ser visualizado sobre un horizonte territorial. En torno a este espacio se perciben líneas imaginarias y borrosas: fronteras, márgenes y confines. Todo un conjunto de trazos que …

Autonomy And The Other: Andalusian Regionalism And Seville's Cigarrera, Nirmala Singh-Brinkman Jan 2005

Autonomy And The Other: Andalusian Regionalism And Seville's Cigarrera, Nirmala Singh-Brinkman

Decimonónica

In 1898 the Spanish Empire experienced the final stage of its collapse when it lost the last of its colonies: Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines. A crisis within the Spanish nation ensued, prompting peripheral regions of the Iberian Peninsula to campaign actively for autonomy. Regionalist activists from Galicia, Valencia, the Basque provinces, Catalonia, and Andalusia interpreted the end of Spanish imperialism as Madrid's failure to let an empire of regional differences thrive—be they Cuban or Catalan. They considered that if Cuba could be “liberated” from Madrid's centralized rule, then Catalonia, for example, should also be granted independence (González Antón …

Lo Sublime Que Se Desvanece. La Imagen Poética Del Niágara En Heredia Y Pombo., Rut Román Jan 2005

Lo Sublime Que Se Desvanece. La Imagen Poética Del Niágara En Heredia Y Pombo., Rut Román

Decimonónica

Al cabo de siglos de teología y racionalismo, el siglo XIX quiere levantar un orden de valores dentro del cual el hombre pueda construir un yo que se arrogue el protagonismo de su propia vida. La formulación estética de ese yo halla en el arte romántico su vehículo y forma. En Hispanoamérica el mayor interés del romanticismo es la elaboración de un sistema simbólico que cohesione los valores, aún dispersos, de las nuevas naciones americanas. Para ello, el arte recurre a la descripción de la naturaleza; la poesía de amor, lo nacional en contraste con lo exótico. Todo ello desde …

Rusiñol’S Modernist Jottings Along Life’S Way And García Lorca’S Impresiones Y Paisajes, Nelson Orringer Jan 2005

Rusiñol’S Modernist Jottings Along Life’S Way And García Lorca’S Impresiones Y Paisajes, Nelson Orringer

Decimonónica

García Lorca’s earliest writings (1917–18) reveal his initial identification with Hispanic modernism, which first came into being in Catalonia.1 Catalan modernistes had introduced the word “modernist” in its contemporary acceptation into the languages of the Iberian Peninsula. L’Avenç, a Barcelonese journal and publishing house, first employed the adjective modernista in the sense of an attitude of approval towards innovation in all spheres of culture. One leader of L’Avenç, the Barcelonese essayist, novelist, poet, playwright, and painter Santiago Rusiñol y Prats (1861–1931), achieved popularity in Catalonia for his poetic essays on travel, on life in general viewed as …

Under A Critical Race Theory Lens -- Brown V. Board Of Education: A Civil Rights Milestone And Its Troubled Legacy, Carlo A. Pedrioli Jan 2005

Under A Critical Race Theory Lens -- Brown V. Board Of Education: A Civil Rights Milestone And Its Troubled Legacy, Carlo A. Pedrioli

Faculty Scholarship

This critical book review argues that James T. Patterson’s narrative in, "Brown v. Board of Education: A Civil Rights Milestone and Its Troubled Legacy," is a mostly balanced historical reflection. Here, the term balanced will refer to giving consideration to both the negative and positive aspects of the phenomenon in question. To advance its thesis, the book review initially offers an overview of Patterson’s historical narrative and evaluation of the Brown legacy. Then the book review analyzes Patterson’s conclusions through a Critical Race Theory lens. Given the focus of Critical Race Theory on race and the law, especially on how …

Highly Streamlined Pcr-Based Genetic Identification Of Carcharhinid Sharks (Family Carcharhinidae) For Use In Wildlife Forensics, Trade Monitoring, And Delineation Of Species Distributions, Marcy Henning Jan 2005

Highly Streamlined Pcr-Based Genetic Identification Of Carcharhinid Sharks (Family Carcharhinidae) For Use In Wildlife Forensics, Trade Monitoring, And Delineation Of Species Distributions, Marcy Henning

HCNSO Student Theses and Dissertations

An increase in worldwide industrialized shark fisheries resulting from the growing demand for shark products, especially shark fins in Asian markets, as well as high levels of bycatch mortality associated with multi-species fisheries have raised suspicions of substantial declines in global shark populations. Due to varying responses by individual species to fishing pressure, it has become necessary to manage sharks on a species-specific basis, which requires the collection of more accurate catch and trade data. The accumulation of such data is hindered, however, by difficulties in identifying species from only landed carcasses, body parts, or fins. This is especially true …
