Preempting The People: The Judicial Role In Regulatory Concurrency And Its Implications For Popular Lawmaking, Theodore W. Ruger

Chicago-Kent Law Review

The phrase "popular constitutionalism" most commonly refers to the role of the public—or perhaps its elected representatives—in framing answers to particular substantive questions of constitutional interpretation. This essay explores a different aspect of the popular constitution of the United States, one that is indifferent to particular substantive questions but that forms the basic structure in which most lawmaking takes place. The United States is not merely a federal system but one with concurrent federalism, in which many issues are regulated by both state and federal governments. This norm of regulatory concurrency became entrenched in the twentieth century even as the …

Katrina, The Constitution, And The Legal Question Doctrine, Robin West

Chicago-Kent Law Review

The article argues that the non-existence of welfare rights in American Constitutional law, and the non-existence of a widely shared sense of moral obligation to attend to poverty through the use of law, cannot be explained by reference to the Constitutional text or history. Rather, it is a function of the over-identification of ordinary morality with Constitutionalism, of the Constitution with law, and of law, with adjudicative law—what the article calls "the legal question doctrine." As courts cannot, will not, and possibly should not enforce "welfare rights," as a matter of adjudicated Constitutional law, so, we conclude, neither the Constitution, …

Helicopter Flight Operational Quality Assurance (Hfoqa): Development Of Hfoqa Analysis Software, Sergio Teixeira

Master's Theses - Daytona Beach

Flight Operational Quality Assurance (FOQA), or Flight Data Monitoring (FDM), has benefited flight safety in both fixed-wing and helicopter operations. The relative youth of FOQA programs has resulted in their minimal application among the helicopter fleets of the world; thus, Helicopter FOQA (HFOQA) has merited consolidation and expansion. This mixed methods design developed HFOQA analysis software via a blend of the qualitative data from helicopter and FOQA experts with quantitative data represented by a sample of de-identified digital flight data from 1,014 helicopter flights. Development of the software emphasized three domains of interest: (a) helicopter flight phases; (b) helicopter operational …

Eminent Domain Reform In Missouri: A Legislative Memoir, Dale A. Whitman

Missouri Law Review

The Missouri General Assembly, like a number of other state legislatures, undertook to reform its statutes relating to eminent domain during the 2006 legislative session. This article is the story of that effort and an analysis of the result. I write from a personal perspective. I was fortunate to have been personally involved in many of the decisions that were made as the bill, House Bill 1944, made its was through the legislative process. This opportunity was, I think, fairly unusual for a law professor; in thirty-seven years of teaching property law, I had never previously been so closely engaged …

Hyperhomocysteinemia And Coronary Artery Disease In Pakistan, M Perwaiz Iqbal

Department of Biological & Biomedical Sciences

The relative risk of developing coronary artery disease (CAD) in Pakistani men is highest in early ages. Majority of those suffering from CAD belong to the lower middle socioeconomic stratum of the society. Mild hyperhomocysteinemia (concentration of plasma homocysteine between 15-25 micromol/l) is very commonly seen in Pakistani patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) as well as in normal healthy subjects. There appears to be a lack of association between hyperhomocysteinemia and CAD in Pakistani population. There is also no evidence of association of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase 677C>T mutation with CAD in this population. High prevalence of deficiency of folate …

Kentucky Haz Alerts--Falls

To prevent falls from ladders while working:

• Make sure that an extension or straight ladder are erected according to the “4 to 1” rule of thumb.
• Safe work practices should be established by the employer for ascending and descending extension or straight ladders with materials and/ or equipment.
• All non-self-supporting ladders should be secured at the top and stabilized at the bottom.

Different Agricultural Management Practices Concerning Soil Fertility: Case Studies Of Six Rural Monteverde Farms, June 2006, Katie Stalland

Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation

This paper reports on six case studies of small scale agricultural practices and soil fertility for six farms of Monteverde, Costa Rica. Data were collected through interviews with farmers regarding agricultural techniques and from soil. Samples from various areas of each farm were analyzed for nutrient contents (N, P, K, pH, and humus). The majority of farmers were found to be utilizing numerous techniques in order to increase soil fertility, though methods differ greatly between farms. Results indicate that organic fertilizers, compost, and manures were effective in increasing soil nutrient levels. Two foliar fertilizers were tested to assess nutrient degradation …

Violence Against Women In Africa, Godpower O. Okereke

African Journal of Criminology and Justice Studies

The United Nations’ report on the State of the World Population 2000 (United Nations, 2000b) and studies conducted by the World Health Organization (2000a) and Amnesty International (2004) all indicate that violence against women is rampant in Africa and is increasing in some areas. The following study is an effort to highlight some of the reasons why violence against women is particularly problematic in African. The study reveals that violence against women in Africa is mainly due to the existence of discriminatory laws, prejudicial and harmful customs, traditions, beliefs and practices, and partly due to non-enforcement of gender-sensitive laws and …

Nebraska Farm Real Estate Market Developments 2005-2006, Bruce B. Johnson, Ben Blomendahl, Kyle Overturf

Nebraska Farm Real Estate Reports

Nebraska’s agricultural land values rose an average of 9.6 percent during the year ending February 1, 2006. This brought the state’s average all-land value to over $1,000 per acre and the total worth of agricultural real estate to more than $45 billion.

In the wake of a series of generally favorable income years for most of the state’s agricultural sector, land values have advanced rather sharply over the past three years – particularly in the eastern third of the state. The three eastern districts have experienced value increases of 40 percent or more since February 2003.

In contrast to these …

Big Box Stores: Their Impacts On The Economy And Tips For Competing, Sean Golden, Noel Jeutang, Ratikanta Pattaik, David Rosenbaum, Eric Thompson

Bureau of Business Research Publications

This is a study in three parts: the general impact of Wal-Mart and big box stores on the economy; an empirical look at Wal-Mart’s impacts on 15 Nebraska communities; and a review of research on ways that local retailers can compete against big box stores.

Part one suggests that Wal-Mart has both positive and negative impacts on the economy. Wal-Mart helps increase productivity and causes consumer prices to fall. Further, a number of studies found that employment increased in communities that received a new Wal-Mart store. However, other studies found that entry of a Wal-Mart failed to lead to net …
