Brain Drain Taxation As Development Policy, Yariv Brauner Oct 2010

Brain Drain Taxation As Development Policy, Yariv Brauner

UF Law Faculty Publications

This article examines the potential use of taxation to generate development funds in connection with the immigration of skilled immigrants from developing into developed countries, known as the "brain drain," if designed according to the principles of the new development agenda. It explains that a tax on the brain drain that has been discussed for several decades, yet considered impossible to administer, may be administratively and legally implementable within the framework of the current international tax regime. It argues that designing such a tax according to the principles of the new development agenda, tying together the collection and use of …


Advocacy In The Court Of Public Opinion, Installment Two: How Far Should Corporate Attorneys Go, Michele M. Destefano Oct 2010

Advocacy In The Court Of Public Opinion, Installment Two: How Far Should Corporate Attorneys Go, Michele M. Destefano

Articles

Today, legal controversies are tried in the court of public opinion as much as in any court of law. Corporate lawyers' traditional tendency, however, has been to attempt to isolate legal activities from public relations activities. Accordingly, when providing legal advice, they have viewed media considerations as separate. Historically corporate counsels' typical media strategy often consisted of no more than, "no comment." Given today's saturated media culture, this is no longer a viable strategy. Indeed, it appears that some corporate lawyers are adapting to the new media environment and attempting to help their clients manage the public relations impact of …

Etsu Today - Fall 2010, University Marketing And Communication, East Tennessee State University

ETSU Today [magazine]

We have welcomed an all-time enrollment record this fall semester, exceeding 15,000 students for the first time in the 99-year history of the institution. here is no question that ETSU has become the dominant organization in this region. With enrollment higher than ever and a work force of some 2,300 faculty and staff, we currently contribute about three–fourths of $1 billion to the regional economy. It’s an amazing story, really. How a small school for teachers, originally enrolling 29 students on October 2, 1911, has evolved into the East Tennessee State University of today. ETSU has survived depression and war, …

Contracts In Context And Contracts As Context, Larry A. Dimatteo, Blake D. Morant Oct 2010

Contracts In Context And Contracts As Context, Larry A. Dimatteo, Blake D. Morant

UF Law Faculty Publications

The annual Business Law Symposium of the Wake Forest Law Review has a distinguished legacy of noteworthy programs that shed light on seminal issues affecting contemporary business in the United States. This edition builds on that tradition of excellence with a focus on the ubiquitous phenomenon of contracts and bargaining behavior. Contract law appears as a set of policies and rules that provide order for those who transact bargains. Indeed, contract law and the rules that it engenders seemingly facilitate an efficient system of transactional conduct that, on its face, appears objective.

Part II of this introductory Article briefly examines …

Understanding How Graphic Pictorial Warnings Work On Cigarette Packaging, Jeremy Kees, Scot Burton, J. Craig Andrews, John Kozup Oct 2010

Understanding How Graphic Pictorial Warnings Work On Cigarette Packaging, Jeremy Kees, Scot Burton, J. Craig Andrews, John Kozup

Marketing Faculty Research and Publications

The 2009 Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act requires cigarette packages to contain stronger warnings in the form of color, graphic pictures depicting the negative health consequences of smoking. The authors present results from a between-subjects experiment with more than 500 smokers that test (1) the effectiveness of pictorial warnings that vary in their graphic depiction of the warning and (2) an underlying mechanism proposed to drive potential effects of the manipulation of the graphic depiction. The findings indicate that more graphic pictorial warning depictions strengthen smokers’ intentions to quit smoking. Recall of warning message statements is reduced by …

Can Corrective Ad Statements Based On U.S. V. Philip Morris Usa Inc. Affect Consumer Beliefs About Smoking?, Andrea Heintz Tangari, Jeremy Kees, J. Craig Andrews, Scot Burton Oct 2010

Can Corrective Ad Statements Based On U.S. V. Philip Morris Usa Inc. Affect Consumer Beliefs About Smoking?, Andrea Heintz Tangari, Jeremy Kees, J. Craig Andrews, Scot Burton

Marketing Faculty Research and Publications

To comply with the court's ruling in U.S. v. Philip Morris USA Inc., tobacco companies must fund a large advertising campaign to 'correct' smoking beliefs about which consumers may have been misled as a result of past deceptive practices of tobacco companies. The authors use an ad copy experiment to examine (1) the effects of different versions of corrective ad statements that plaintiff intervenors submitted to the court on multi-item belief measures and (2) the impact of the ad versions and beliefs on general attitudes toward smoking across current adult smokers and nonsmokers. The tested ad versions include a …


Unfettered Discretion: Criminal Orders Of Protection And Their Impact On Parent Defendants, David Michael Jaros Oct 2010

Unfettered Discretion: Criminal Orders Of Protection And Their Impact On Parent Defendants, David Michael Jaros

Indiana Law Journal

The last two decades have witnessed an astonishing increase in the use of the criminal justice system to police neglectful parents. Recasting traditional allegations of neglect as criminal charges of endangering the welfare of a child, prosecutors and the police have involved criminal courts in the regulation of aspects of the parent-child relationship that were once the sole province of family courts. This Article explores the legal implications of vesting judges in these cases with the unfettered discretion to issue protective orders that criminalize contact between a parent and her child.I argue that procedures for issuing protective orders that were …


"Why Rebottle The Genie?": Capitalizing On Closure In Death Penalty Proceedings, Jody L. Madeira Oct 2010

"Why Rebottle The Genie?": Capitalizing On Closure In Death Penalty Proceedings, Jody L. Madeira

Indiana Law Journal

Closure, though a term with great rhetorical force in the capital punishment context, has to date evaded systematic analysis, instead becoming embroiled in ideological controversy. For victims who have rubbed the rights lamp for years, inclusion in capital proceedings and accompanying closure opportunities are perceived as a force with the potential to grant wishes of peace and finality. Scholars, however, argue for rebottling the closure genie lest closure itself prove false or its pursuit violate a defendant's constitutional rights. In order to effectively appraise the relationship of closure to criminal jurisprudence, however, and thus to decide whether and to what …


Biocompatibility Of Synthetic Poly(Ester Urethane)/Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane Matrices With Embryonic Stem Cell Proliferation And Differentiation, Yan-Lin Guo, Wenshou Wang, Joshua U. Otaigbe Oct 2010

Biocompatibility Of Synthetic Poly(Ester Urethane)/Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane Matrices With Embryonic Stem Cell Proliferation And Differentiation, Yan-Lin Guo, Wenshou Wang, Joshua U. Otaigbe

Faculty Publications

Incorporation of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) into poly(ester urethanes) (PEU) as a building block results in a PEU/POSS hybrid polymer with increased mechanical strength and thermostability. An attractive feature of the new polymer is that it forms a porous matrix when cast in the form of a thin film, making it potentially useful in tissue engineering. In this study, we present detailed microscopic analysis of the PEU/POSS matrix and demonstrate its biocompatibility with cell culture. The PEU/POSS polymer forms a continuous porous matrix with open pores and interconnected grooves. From SEM image analysis, it is calculated that there are about …
