Humane Education, Dissection, And The Law, Marcia Goodman Kramer
Humane Education, Dissection, And The Law, Marcia Goodman Kramer
Animal Law Review
Students regularly encounter animal dissection in education, yet humane education receives little attention in animal law. This article analyzes the status of humane education laws in the United States. It discusses the range of statutory protections, from student choice laws to bans on vivisection. The article then analyzes the litigation options for students who do not wish to dissect, including constitutional claims and claims arising under student choice laws. The article concludes by calling for additional legislation to protect students who have ethical objections to dissection.
Bar Mental Fitness Questions: Perpetuating The Stigma, Sara Josselyn
Bar Mental Fitness Questions: Perpetuating The Stigma, Sara Josselyn
Dalhousie Journal of Legal Studies
In order to be admitted to the practice of law, all applicants to provincial Barristers’ Societies must respond to a series of questions aimed at ensuring that they are of good character and are generally “fit” to practice. Some applicants must also demonstrate their medical fitness by responding to various mental disability-related questions. This article examines whether the medical fitness questions currently asked of Bar applicants in many provinces are discriminatory and whether they serve to perpetuate the stigma associated with mental illness. The author will evaluate the propriety of broadly worded mental fitness questions in order to show that …
Protecting The Mysteries Of The Deep: Conserving Biodiversity In Marine Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction, Théa Lowry
Protecting The Mysteries Of The Deep: Conserving Biodiversity In Marine Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction, Théa Lowry
Dalhousie Journal of Legal Studies
Living resources in the deep sea have attracted increased attention over the past few decades. As science and technology advance our ability to explore these areas, the extent of marine biodiversity being discovered is astonishing. Unfortunately, beyond national boundaries this abundance of life is largely unprotected. This article will explore the current legal regime governing marine biodiversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction. It will identify gaps in the regime and suggest a solution in the form of a framework for an implementation agreement to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. The article begins by describing various …
Pets In The Eye Of The Storm: Hurricane Katrina Floods The Courts With Pet Custody Disputes, Megan Mcnabb
Pets In The Eye Of The Storm: Hurricane Katrina Floods The Courts With Pet Custody Disputes, Megan Mcnabb
Animal Law Review
The story of King Solomon includes the often-told tale of two women, both claiming ownership of one baby, who come before the king’s court in order to resolve their quarrel as to which of them is the true mother. This article recounts a modern-day King Solomon story: the “baby” is the animals left behind during Hurricane Katrina; the two mothers claiming ownership of the “baby” are the original owners of the animals and those who adopted the animals after the hurricane; and the role of King Solomon is played by judges in the custody dispute cases that arose after the …

Title Iii Of The Bioterrorism Act: Sacrificing U.S. Trade Relations In The Name Of Food Security, Claire S. Boisen
American University Law Review
Part I examines in detail the two conflicting laws that are the basis of this Comment—Title III of the Bioterrorism Act and the SPS Agreement—focusing on those portions of Title III that adversely impact international trade. Part I also presents the WTO case EC Measures Concerning Meat and Meat Products (Hormones), the first food regulation case disputed in the WTO system for a violation of the SPS Agreement. This case clarified the two major principles of the SPS Agreement that are explored in this Comment: the prohibition on discrimination and the obligation to support trade–restrictive measures with an analytical risk …
Gene Expression Patterns In Patients With High-Altitude Pulmonary Edema: A Gene Microarray Analysis, Lauren Kendall Krause
Gene Expression Patterns In Patients With High-Altitude Pulmonary Edema: A Gene Microarray Analysis, Lauren Kendall Krause
Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library
Multiple modulating genes and environmental factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). However, at the present time, there exists an incomplete understanding of the molecular mechanisms and pathways which underlie constitutional susceptibility. Genome-wide measurements of gene expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were performed using microarray technology. Comparison of gene expression profiles of HAPE-susceptible and resistant individuals resulted in the identification of several previously undescribed candidate genes. RhoA and Rho-kinase (ROCK), regulators of vascular smooth muscle contraction, were differentially regulated in the HAPE-susceptible cohort, as compared to both HAPE-resistant patients with acute mountain sickness …
Significance Of "Atypia" Found On Needle Biopsy Of The Breast: Correlation With Surgical Outcome, Anika Nina Watson
Significance Of "Atypia" Found On Needle Biopsy Of The Breast: Correlation With Surgical Outcome, Anika Nina Watson
Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library
Although core needle biopsy has been shown to be effective in diagnosing both benign and malignant mammographically detected lesions in the breast, it has also been shown to underestimate cancer most likely due to sampling error. Since a diagnosis of atypical hyperplasia versus malignancy is based on quantitative factors (which could be affected by an error in sampling), the current recommendation is surgical excision for atypical hyperplasia diagnosed on core biopsy. The purpose of the study was to determine if a subset of patients with atypia diagnosed by core biopsy fit the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data Systems (BI-RADS) Category …
Secrecy And Access In An Innovation Intensive Economy: Reordering Information Privileges In Environmental, Health, And Safety Law, Mary L. Lyndon
Secrecy And Access In An Innovation Intensive Economy: Reordering Information Privileges In Environmental, Health, And Safety Law, Mary L. Lyndon
University of Colorado Law Review
This article examines the law concerned with access to information that is commercially valuable when it is kept secret but is also essential to environmental, health, and safety (EHS) risk evaluation. EHS law stimulates sustainable economic activity, including new technologies, and thus complements intellectual property law. Access to EHS information is essential to risk management, but current disclosure obligations are unclear, as the law is a patchwork of familiar but ill-fitting concepts and entitlements. The article discusses the current law that affects disclosure, taking into account recent changes in the technological and economic landscape. It also describes the contrasting uses …

Approaches To Molecular Imprinting On Polysiloxane Scaffolds, Michael Edward Brown
Approaches To Molecular Imprinting On Polysiloxane Scaffolds, Michael Edward Brown
University of Kentucky Master's Theses
Molecular imprinting, a common method used in separations and chromatography to isolate specific molecules via surface binding, has been adapted for applications in biomaterials and related sciences. The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of different approaches to molecular imprinting by testing for preferential binding of protein on polysiloxane scaffold surfaces. To test preferential rebinding, the scaffolds were exposed to a mixture of the template protein and a competitor protein with similar size but different chemistry. Lysozyme-imprinted polymers rebound 8.13 0.99% of lysozyme without any competition and 5.1 0.3% of the protein during competition. Lysozyme C peptide …
Breaking The Rule Of Discipline In Interdisciplinarity: Redefining Professors, Students, And Staff As Faculty, Alison Cook-Sather, Elliott Shore
Breaking The Rule Of Discipline In Interdisciplinarity: Redefining Professors, Students, And Staff As Faculty, Alison Cook-Sather, Elliott Shore
Education Program Faculty Research and Scholarship
In this article we attempt to complicate traditional--and, we argue, limited and exclusionary--definitions of interdisciplinarity as the bringing into dialogue of established disciplines without questioning the parameters and practices of those disciplines. We propose that interdisciplinarity instead might mean teaching and learning among, between, and in the midst of those of innate or learned capacities--not only college faculty but also students and staff. To illustrate this more radical iteration of interdisciplinarity, we draw on a range of definitions of the key terms, “discipline” and “faculty,” and we offer a case study of a workshop we co-facilitated in which we brought …

Exurban development (nonmetropolitan, residential development) poses unique challenges for wildlife managers through increases in human-wildlife interactions. However, little is known about hunting activity and human attitudes toward white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) in exurban areas. In 2004, we surveyed exurbanites near Carbondale, Illinois, regarding their experiences with and attitudes towards deer, whose population in the study area was at or above cultural carrying capacity. Deer-vehicle collisions (DVC) were common and a concern for most respondents (84%). However, DVCs were less infl uential than plant damage in determining landowner tolerance of deer. Only 19% of respondents allowed hunting on their …

Acl Injuries: Do We Know The Mechanisms?, Antonie J. Van Den Bogert, Scott G. Mclean
Mechanical Engineering Faculty Publications
Injuries of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) remain a frequent occurrence in many sports activities. Recent research has identified risk factors, and prevention strategies are being developed based on these findings. There is, however, still a limited understanding of the actual injury mechanisms. In this presentation we will review the current knowledge on ACL injury mechanisms, and identify needs and opportunities for further research.
Are You Sure You're Saving Enough For Retirement?, Jonathan Skinner
Are You Sure You're Saving Enough For Retirement?, Jonathan Skinner
Dartmouth Scholarship
Many view the soon-to-retire Baby Boomers as woefully unprepared for their golden years, while other economists have taken a more sanguine view of American levels of saving. And if Americans are failures at saving enough for retirement, why are some retirees so happy? The seemingly simple question of "Am I saving enough for retirement?" is apparently not so simple at all. Instead, it touches on a variety of deeper issues in economics, psychology, and health policy. I use the program ESPlanner to present life-cycle retirement wealth targets for a range of incomes and situations typical of American Economic Association members. …

Farmland Preservation Programs In West Virginia: A Preliminary Inquiry Into The Merits Of Purchase Development Rights, Odd Stalebrink, Samuel E. Wilkinson
Farmland Preservation Programs In West Virginia: A Preliminary Inquiry Into The Merits Of Purchase Development Rights, Odd Stalebrink, Samuel E. Wilkinson
Regional Research Institute Working Papers
To prevent the loss of farmland in West Virginia, the Voluntary Farmland Protection Act (VFPA) was passed in 2000. This act gives counties and the State authority to develop and fund local farmland protection programs, which typically involve a voluntary sale by a landowner of the right to develop the farmland. Following the purchase, the purchaser (often a government or a land trust) would retire the property. Since the inception of the VFPA, 5,000 acres of farmland have been retired in West Virginia. The objective of the paper is to assess the merit of this legislation in terms of its …

The Role Of The Specific, Profilaggrin-Containing Keratohyalin Granules In The Developing Epidermis Of The Fetal Horse Hoof, Hermann H. Bragulla, Dominique G. Homberger
The Role Of The Specific, Profilaggrin-Containing Keratohyalin Granules In The Developing Epidermis Of The Fetal Horse Hoof, Hermann H. Bragulla, Dominique G. Homberger
Faculty Publications
The adult equine hoof is subdivided into distinct segments with various keratinization modes. In the periople and bulbs of the heel, the epidermis forms a Stratum granulosum with basophilic keratohyalin granules during soft keratinization, whereas in the coronet, wall proper, sole, and frog, the epidermis undergoes hard keratinization by keratinizing and comifying without forming keratohyalin granules. The present study tests the hypothesis that the presence of specific (profilaggrin-containing) keratohyalin granules in the hoof epidermis is correlated with the water-binding capacity and mechanical properties of the hoof horn. To identify these specific profilaggrin-containing keratohyalin granules, tissue samples of fetal hooves were …

Life Without Water: Expression Of Plant Lea Genes By An Anhydrobiotic Arthropod, Steven C. Hand, Dana Jones, Michael A. Menze, Trudy L. Witt
Faculty Publications
Anhydrobiotic animals protect cellular architecture and metabolic machinery in the dry state, yet the molecular repertoire supporting this profound dehydration tolerance is not fully understood. For the desiccation-tolerant crustacean, Artemia franciscana, we report differential expression of two distinct mRNAs encoding for proteins that share sequence similarities and structural features with late-embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins originally discovered in plants. Bioinformatic analyses support assignment of the LEA proteins from A. franciscana to group 3. This eucoelomate species is the most highly evolved animal for which LEA gene expression has been reported. It is becoming clear that an ensemble of micromolecules and macromolecules …
Microbial Carbon Monoxide Consumption In Salt Marsh Sediments, Gary M. King
Microbial Carbon Monoxide Consumption In Salt Marsh Sediments, Gary M. King
Faculty Publications
We have examined sediments from a fringing salt marsh in Maine to further understand marine CO metabolism, about which relatively little is known. Intact cores from the marsh emitted CO during dark oxic incubations, but emission rates were significantly higher during anoxic incubations, which provided evidence for simultaneous production and aerobic consumption in surface sediments. CO emission rates were also elevated when cores were exposed to light, which indicated that photochemical reactions play a role in CO production. A kinetic analysis of marsh surface sediments yielded an apparent Km of about 82 ppm, which exceeded values reported for well-aerated soils …
Biology And Host Specificity Of Gall-Inducing Acythopeus Burkhartorum (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), A Biological-Control Agent For The Invasive Weed Coccinia Grandis (Cucurbitaceae) In Guam And Saipan, Anantanarayanan Raman, Zerlene T. Cruz, Rangaswamy Muniappan, Gadi V.P. Reddy
Biology And Host Specificity Of Gall-Inducing Acythopeus Burkhartorum (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), A Biological-Control Agent For The Invasive Weed Coccinia Grandis (Cucurbitaceae) In Guam And Saipan, Anantanarayanan Raman, Zerlene T. Cruz, Rangaswamy Muniappan, Gadi V.P. Reddy
Faculty Publications
An introduced cucurbit Coccinia grandis (Linnaeus) Voigt has grown into problem proportions in Hawaii and the Pacific islands of Guam and Saipan. The biology of Acythopeus burkhartorum OBrien, 1998, a potential biological-control agent of C. grandis, has been described. By inducing the gall a sink for nutrients and by deriving nutrition, A. burkhartorum places C. grandis under stress. Especially during the late larval stage, the weevil displays an unusual behaviour of shredding dry gall tissues with its mandibles to prepare the pupal case and using the shredded sclerenchyma fibres to fill the open and cut ends of the pupal case. …
