Undoing The Damage Of The Dew, Priscilla Norwood Harris

Journal Publications

Over the past several decades, American consumption of carbonated soft drinks (CSDs) has increased dramatically. In 1947, Americans consumed on average two soft drinks per week.s By 1996, they consumed on average approximately two soft drinks per day. As a result, the CSD industry is, as of 2007, a $72 billion a year industry. There is a dark side to all of this consumption. Numerous studies link consumption of CSDs to various health problems,' including: heart disease, obesity, osteoporosis, and dental harm, especially dental erosion. The main culprits causing the dental harm are not the cola CSDs but rather the …

Sophistry, Situational Ethics, And The Taxation Of The Carried Interest, Darryll K. Jones

Journal Publications

This Article is, in essence, a strident expression of indignation about what a majority of tax scholars and, indeed, legislators consider a glaring yet persistent inequity in the tax code. In short, sometimes extraordinarily well-paid fund managers receive compensation taxed at capital gains rates. All other, usually very much lower-compensated, service providers are taxed at ordinary rates. The result is clearly regressive and yet, as of late, even some respected and knowledgeable scholars-though still in the minority-have unabashedly set forth sophisticated-sounding justifications. Objections based on unfairness, real, or even merely perceived, are difficult to express without a tone of indignation, …

Website Proprietorship And Online Harassment, Nancy Kim

Faculty Scholarship

Although harassment and bullying have always existed, when such behavior is conducted online, the consequences can be uniquely devastating. The anonymity of harassers, the ease of widespread digital dissemination, and the inability to contain and/or eliminate online information can aggravate the nature of harassment on the Internet. Furthermore, section 230 of the Communications Decency Act provides Web site sponsors with immunity for content posted by others and no incentive to remove offending content.

Given the unique nature of online harassment, ex post punitive measures are inadequate to redress grievances. In this Article, I propose the imposition of proprietorship liability upon …

How Offshore Outsourcing Is Perceived: Why Do Some Consumers Feel More Threatened?, Srinivas Durvasula, Steven Lysonski

Marketing Faculty Research and Publications

As globalization intensifies, multinational companies are not only compelled to expand their operations, but are also facing greater pressure to enhance productivity and concomitant return on investment (ROI). One way to achieve cost efficiencies is by offshoring selected business operations to overseas firms. Such offshoring, however, has generated public concern and, in some cases, outrage. Angst against offshoring is based on many perceptions, including perceived job losses and damage to domestic industries. In the wake of this threat, multinational firms in Europe and North America confront a public relations problem in justifying their offshoring activities. Yet, no systematic study has …

Resource Consumption Models For Different Manufacturing System Configurations, Reema A. Alanber

Open Access Master's Theses

This thesis will focus on resource consumption models of productivity, cost of quality, and cycle time, to describe and select preferred configurations as a function of the system and operating parameters. Consider a production system which consists of workstations or machines that can be arranged in different configurations, where each configuration can affect the performance of the system. This thesis will model and analyze four main configurations, namely serial, parallel, and serial-parallel with and without crossover.

In a production system, parts are processed at each workstation or machine, where a value is added to the part. Inspection is performed to …

From Soldadera To Adelita: The Depiction Of Women In The Mexican Revolution, Delia Fernández

McNair Scholars Journal

Popular images of women during the Mexican Revolution (1911-1920) often depict them as dressed provocatively, yet wearing a bandolier and gun. Although the image is common, its origin is not well known. An examination of secondary literature and media will show the transformation in the image of the female soldier (soldadera) over the course of the Revolution from that of the submissive follower into a promiscuous fighter (Adelita). The soldaderas exhibited masculine characteristics, like strength and valor, and for these attributes, men were responsible for reshaping the soldadera’s image into the ideal (docile, yet licentious) woman of the time.

Language, Culture, Perception And Knowledge, Alfredo Hernandez Corsen

McNair Scholars Journal

The complexity of our diverse communities requires us to reflect on pre-conceived notions of understanding that shape worldviews. This project examines approaches that exclude divergent perspectives, while promoting intolerant ideologies that limit our possibilities for shared learning. It also explores crucial elements that shape our understanding in an effort to expose the limitations created by absolute frames of mind. This research involves an analysis of scientific and religious fundamentalist outlooks that negate vital opportunities for discovery through mutual collaboration and the acknowledgment of exclusive and incomplete perspectives that discourage and undervalue diversity.
