The Dtsa: The Litigator's Full-Employment Act, Sharon K. Sandeen

Washington and Lee Law Review Online

Civil litigation is expensive, both for the party bringing suit and the party that must defend against such claims. For a variety of reasons, not the least of which are the usual requests for preliminary relief and protective orders, trade secret litigation is particularly expensive. These costs can have a crippling effect on small businesses and start-up companies that are accused of trade secret misappropriation, often resulting in litigation expenses that exceed the alleged harm to the plaintiff. Such litigation is particularly costly and unjust in cases where the plaintiff asserts rights that, due to common misunderstandings about the limited …

The Legal Status Of Personalized Media, Jędrzej Skrzypczak

internetowy Kwartalnik Antymonopolowy i Regulacyjny (internet Quarterly on Antitrust and Regulation)

A dynamic development of media-related digital technologies has been observed throughout recent decades. These phenomena are conducive to significant social, economic, political and legal transformations. The development of digital media has led to the creation of many new categories of transfers and modifications of traditional communication patterns. One of the most interesting examples of these phenomena is personalized media. This could be media on-demand, but also media available via streaming, tailored to the needs of a specific recipient. The legal status of personalized media is surrounded by many doubts. This paper focuses on analyzing the legal rules defining the formal …

Legal Status Of Connected Tv On The Basis Of The Broadcasting Act Of 29th December 1992, Tomasz Zdzikot

internetowy Kwartalnik Antymonopolowy i Regulacyjny (internet Quarterly on Antitrust and Regulation)

Growing convergence of media leads to far-reaching changes in the manner of reception of content offered through various communication channels. Convergence also connects service providers which used to operate completely separately and under different legal regimes. This issue is a source of many doubts from the point of view of the regulatory framework, incompatible with highly advanced and innovative services. The development of hybrid systems, combining television and the Internet, makes it necessary to attempt to assign market facts to binding law – key among them, within media services, is the Broadcasting Act of 29th December 1992.

Transmission Rights To Major Events In The Light Of Eu Law, Małgorzata Pęk

internetowy Kwartalnik Antymonopolowy i Regulacyjny (internet Quarterly on Antitrust and Regulation)

The article presents the model of exercising transmission rights to ‘major events’ adopted in EU law in the light of the interpretative activities of the Court of Justice, guidelines of the European Commission and best practices of EEA countries. The article aims to stress the need to revise the EU legal framework, namely the Audiovisual Media Service Directive, and to adopt a more coherent, precise and transparent regulatory approach.

Distribution Of Television Programs As A Telecommunications Service, Stanisław Piątek

internetowy Kwartalnik Antymonopolowy i Regulacyjny (internet Quarterly on Antitrust and Regulation)

The Article concerns the consequences of declaring the service of ‘providing television services to subscribers’ to be a ‘telecommunications service’, which resulted from judicial developments as well as from a statement of the Telecommunications Regulator. The change was meant to provide subscribers of television services with legal protection corresponding to that available to subscribers of telecommunications services, breaking free from the established, literal interpretation of EU and national law. However, apart from the expected changes concerning the relationships between service providers and subscribers, the paper shows also the unexpected results of the new interpretation which, in turn, do not have …

The Polish List Of Major Events And The Context Of Its Creation, Albert Woźniak

internetowy Kwartalnik Antymonopolowy i Regulacyjny (internet Quarterly on Antitrust and Regulation)

Article 20b(3) of the Polish Broadcasting Act gives the Polish National Broadcasting Council – KRRiT – the authority to issue a biding act (in Polish: Rozporządzenie, that is, a regulation) creating a list of major events, having regard to the degree of social interest in the given event and its significance to social, economic and political life. The article presents the context of creating the Polish list and the criteria which were taken into consideration while the KRRiT was adopting it.

Public Perceptions Of The Stigmatization Of Wrongly Convicted Individuals: Findings From Semi-Structured Interviews, Isabella M. Blandisi, Kimberley A. Clow, Rosemary Ricciardelli

The Qualitative Report

Many exonerees report stigmatizing experiences and difficulties securing gainful employment post-incarceration. Although researchers have begun to investigate public perceptions of wrongful conviction, there remains a dearth of knowledge about public perceptions of exonerees. To provide insight into how the public perceives exonerees, face-to-face interviews were conducted with members (n=30) of a suburban city in South Central Ontario. Data analysis included a constructed grounded approach to reveal emergent themes in the transcripts. All interviewees acknowledged that wrongly convicted individuals are stigmatized by the public and that this can have negative effects in many of their lived experiences. In addition, findings of …

Phenolic Rich Extracts Obtained From Small Red Beans In Preventing Macrophage Mediated Chronic Inflammation, Nidhi Sharma

Department of Food Science and Technology: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

Small red beans, commonly called Mexican beans, are a part of the legume family, the genus Phaseolus vulgaris, i.e., dry edible beans or the common bean. In addition to being a rich source of nutrients, small red beans also contain phenolic compounds, such as flavonoids, tannins, phenolic acids, and anthocyanins that have shown a plethora of health benefits against such conditions as obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer. In particular, the phenolic compounds common to the red beans have been reported to protect against chronic inflammation that if left unchecked can lead to various other chronic degenerative diseases. These …

The Mechanisms Of Moral Disengagement In George W. Bush’S “War On Terror” Rhetoric, Stefan Cartledge, Lorraine Bowman-Grieve, Marek Palasinski

The Qualitative Report

Despite considerable literature on the Bush administration’s war on terrorism rhetoric, little attention has been paid to its discourse of moral disengagement, leaving an important and still relevant gap that this paper aims to address. Rather than approaching this gap in terms of an archival historical analysis that is disconnected from the present, it proposes an exploratory revisit of the rhetoric that the benefits of hindsight might enrich and, we argue, aid in understanding connections to the current post-invasion turmoil and the gradual ISIS takeover. Having subjected nineteen presidential speeches to qualitative content analysis, we identified a number of moral …

Starting Where You Are: How Race Can Constrain Researchers Within The Research Setting, Kamesha Spates, Wangari Gichiru

The Qualitative Report

What challenges can race and gender present for researchers of color? As Black women, we draw on personal reflections to look back at our graduate training and its influence on how we conducted ourselves in the field as graduate students and now as researchers in the academy. We particularly consider how mainstream pedagogical approaches to teaching qualitative methods might work to marginalize researchers of color throughout the qualitative research process. We lay out these complexities, not necessarily to offer solutions but rather to allow others in similar situations to think about their own journey as we collectively move qualitative research …

Distribution Of Herbicide-Resistant Shattercane And Johnsongrass Populations In Sorghum Production Areas Of Nebraska And Northern Kansas, Rodrigo Werle, Amit J. Jhala, Melinda K. Yerka, J. Anita Dille, John L. Lindquist

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Overreliance on acetolactate synthase (ALS)-inhibiting herbicides for weed control during the 1990s resulted in selection of ALS-resistant shattercane [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench ssp. drummondii (Nees ex Steud.) de Wet ex Davidse] biotypes in Nebraska. The objective of this study was to assess the baseline presence of ALS-resistance in 190 shattercane and 59 johnsongrass [Sorghum halepense (L.) Pers.] populations collected across northern Kansas, northwestern Missouri, and southern Nebraska in 2013. In 2014, a preliminary field experiment was conducted to evaluate the presence of herbicide resistance in the aforementioned populations. Treatments consisted of four herbicides (clethodim {2-[1-[[(E)-3-chloroprop-2-enoxy]amino] propylidene]-5-(2-ethylsulfanylpropyl)cyclohexane-1,3-dione}, glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl) …

Dancing Through Life: Molecular Dynamics Simulations And Network-Centric Modeling Of Allosteric Mechanisms In Hsp70 And Hsp110 Chaperone Proteins, Gabrielle Stetz, Gennady M. Verkhivker

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

Hsp70 and Hsp110 chaperones play an important role in regulating cellular processes that involve protein folding and stabilization, which are essential for the integrity of signaling networks. Although many aspects of allosteric regulatory mechanisms in Hsp70 and Hsp110 chaperones have been extensively studied and significantly advanced in recent experimental studies, the atomistic picture of signal propagation and energetics of dynamics-based communication still remain unresolved. In this work, we have combined molecular dynamics simulations and protein stability analysis of the chaperone structures with the network modeling of residue interaction networks to characterize molecular determinants of allosteric mechanisms. We have shown that …

The Extent And Nature Of Bullying In A Christian School, Brian Hazeltine, David A. Hernandez

Journal of Educational Research and Practice

Bullying is a problem that has been studied in schools worldwide, but there is little research on bullying within Christian schools, a dearth which may stem from the assumption that Christian schools teach character traits that are inimical to bullying. Yet understanding the extent and nature of bullying in Christian schools may lead to a better understanding of ways to address the problem in all schools. Guided by social identity theory, which allowed for a focus on moral and character development, this study examined the extent and nature of bullying among 347 students in Grades 3 through 10 in a …

The path to becoming a lawyer, pilot, or a doctor is a very tough route no matter which profession one should choose. The purpose of this research paper is to determine if all the careers offer the same reward upon completion of education. Does one career earn significantly more money per dollar invested in education? The hope is that this paper will show these inconsistencies and increase awareness of the amount of debt students are piling on. The starting salary of a profession needs to be able to support the debt that must be accrued. Throughout this research paper, there …
