Marketing Efficiency Of Cassava Products In Delta State, Nigeria: A Stochastic Profit Frontier Approach, S Rahman, Bo Awerije

School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences

The present study estimates the level of marketing margin and marketing efficiency of cassava products (i.e., root tuber, gari, fufu, tapioca, starch, and flour) of 105 marketers from three regions of Delta State, Nigeria using a stochastic profit frontier approach. Results reveal that a rise in purchase price of cassava products as well as unit marketing cost significantly reduce marketing margin. A rise in sale price of cassava products increase marketing margin as expected. Marketing experience significantly improves marketing margin as expected. The mean level of marketing efficiency is very low estimated at 55% implying that marketing margin can be …

Criminal Corporate Character, Robert E. Wagner

Florida Law Review

In the last few years, corporations have been accused of crimes ranging from environmental pollution on an unprecedented scale, to manslaughter, to election tampering, to large-scale antitrust violations. Many of these accused companies had previously committed similar acts or even the exact same offense. Unfortunately, the rules of evidence in the federal system and in virtually every state system prohibit the use of this information in a prosecution for such crimes. The reasons for this prohibition are based in historical anomalies, a mistaken understanding of corporate function, and a misplaced anthropomorphism of the corporation. This combination of errors has resulted …

When The Commerce Clause Goes International: A Proposed Legal Framework For The Foreign Commerce Clause, Naomi Harlin Goodno

Florida Law Review

The world is becoming a smaller place. Technology and the Internet have made global travel and communication easier, quicker, and more common. Novel legal issues arise every day to deal with this modern interconnected world. How does the law address these new problems?

Congress is allowed “[t]o regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes.” The scope of Congress’s power to regulate commerce “among the several States” (the “Interstate Commerce Clause”) has long been debated. In the modern world of global interaction, Congress’s power to regulate commerce “with foreign Nations” (the “Foreign Commerce …

Religion And The Equal Protection Clause: Why The Constitution Requires School Vouchers, Steven G. Calabresi, Abe Salander

Florida Law Review

In this Article, we argue that, as a matter of original meaning, the Fourteenth Amendment, standing alone, forbids all discrimination on the basis of religion just as it forbids all discrimination on the basis of race and gender. Our understanding of the Fourteenth Amendment is based on the research of Professor Melissa Saunders and Professor John Harrison, who have both argued that the Amendment outlawed class legislation, and on the research of Professor Steven Calabresi and Julia Rickert, who have argued that the Amendment also banned systems of caste. The historical evidence is overwhelming and persuasive. We argue that a …

The Relationship Between Bilingualism And Executive Functioning In Spanish- And English-Speaking Head Start Preschoolers, Lisa J. White

Open Access Theses

Executive functions (EF) are an important aspect of school readiness that have been shown to predict higher achievement in language, math, and science starting in the early years (Blair & Razza, 2007; Bull, Espy, & Wiebe, 2008; Nayfeld, Fuccillo, & Greenfield, 2013; Ponitz, McClelland, Matthews, & Morrison, 2009). Children who are bilingual have been shown to have enhanced EF skills when compared to their monolingual peers (Bialystok & Viswanathan, 2009; Carlson & Meltzoff, 2008; Poulin-Dubois, Blaye, Coutya, & Bialystok, 2011; Riggs, Shin, Unber, Spruijt-Metz, Pentz, 2013). While this association has been found among children of different ages, languages, and socioeconomic …

Programs

At its best, a university is a collection of individuals ‐‐ students and faculty ‐‐ focused on learning and discovering new knowledge. For this goal to be realized, a critical element is having faculty members deeply engaged in such discovery within their disciplines. Scholarship, in the form of journal articles, book chapters, monographs and similar endeavors, creative activity which can take an even wider range of forms, and funded research which explores the boundaries of disciplines all contribute to such engagement. Through such participation, faculty members stay at the growing edges of their fields, and in so doing, they enrich …
