Anatomy Of A Liquefied Natural Gas Receiving Terminal In Atlantic Canada-An Overview Of The Legal And Regulatory Hurdles, A David Seely, Alexander Macdonald

Dalhousie Law Journal

A new industry is developing in Canada due to recent studies indicating that demand for liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply in Canada and the U.S. is on the rise. As a result, the construction stage has begun for a number of proposed LNG receiving terminals in and around Atlantic Canada. The authors provide an overview of the current issues facing these LNG projects, such as their impact on fisheries, the environment, and Aboriginal rights. They discuss the regulatory framework governing these areas, the due diligence required to identify and address areas of concern, some commercial issues and safety and security …

Handing On The Charism: Reporting On An Oral History Project, Kathleen Flanagan S.C., Mary Ellen Gleason S.C., Carole Garibaldi Rogers

Vincentian Studies

“Handing on the Charism,” part of a larger oral history project, was a series of interviews conducted in 2002 and 2003 among the Sisters of Charity of Saint Elizabeth, their associates, and other women the Sisters helped or influenced. The article gives this New Jersey community’s history, explains the project’s methodology, and provides long excerpts from the interview transcripts. It provides conclusions about how the Sisters’ charism is being passed down as well as recommendations for how to further include the laity in it.

Catherine Josephine Seton And The New York Mercy Experience, Ann M. Gallagher R.S.M.

Vincentian Studies

The life of Elizabeth Seton’s daughter Catherine is recounted. Catherine studied and taught at Emmitsburg, nursed her mother through her final illness, and traveled throughout the eastern United States as well as Europe. She knew many important people, especially members of the American Catholic hierarchy. As the first New York Sister of Mercy with a career that spanned forty-five years, she was vital to that community’s American establishment. She engaged in a wide variety of important work, especially extensive ministry in the prisons of New York. Bishop John Hughes said of her, “If ever [a] daughter rivaled the sanctity of …

A New Letter Of Felix De Andreis, John E. Rybolt C.M., Ph.D.

Vincentian Studies

In his introduction to this 1817 letter of Felix De Andreis, John Rybolt notes that it is of particular significance because it is the only one De Andreis wrote while he was in Sainte Genevieve, Missouri. Rybolt writes, “In this letter his response to the difficulties he faced is typical of the perspective seen throughout his correspondence: redemptive suffering, personal humility against the backdrop of his fame and success in Rome, a reliance on divine providence for the future of his mission.” De Andreis recounts the hardships of the frontier and describes his parishioners and his ministry among them. He …

The Daughters Of Charity As Civil War Nurses, Caring Without Boundaries, Betty Ann Mcneil D.C.

Vincentian Studies

Betty Ann McNeil uses the words and experiences of five Daughters of Charity to illustrate the service of the 270 sisters who nursed wounded soldiers on both sides of the Civil War in Union and Confederate territory. According to McNeil, the sisters “crossed boundaries of locale, politics, and religion . . . for the sake of the Vincentian mission.” This included crossing army lines. They faced great personal danger and hardship and adapted their organization to meet ever changing wartime conditions in a variety of settings, including major battlefields. They also had to acclimate themselves to regional cultures. Despite the …

Madre Patria (Mother Country): Latino Identity And Rejections Of Blackness, Marta I. Cruz-Janzen

Trotter Review

When I was in third grade, in Puerto Rico, I wanted to be the Virgin Mary for the community Christmas celebration. A teacher promptly informed me that the mother of Christ could not be black. A girl with blonde hair and blue eyes was selected for the role, and I was given the role of a shepherd. In middle school, also in Puerto Rico, I played a house servant for a school play. Only children of black heritage played the slaves and servants. A white student with a painted face portrayed the only significant black character. All the other characters …

Turf Wars In Radiology: What Must Academic Radiology Do?, Vijay M. Rao, David C. Levin

Department of Radiology Faculty Papers

In a previous article in this series, we called upon private practice radiology groups to better support radiology research financially, but also pointed out that academic radiology must make some changes as well. In this article, we discuss those changes in detail. They include revising the structure of the radiology residency, changing the timing of the American Board of Radiology oral examinations, requiring that all residents receive research training, and emphasizing the value of clinical and translational research. The Society of Chairmen of Academic Radiology Departments (SCARD) needs to assume a leadership role in implementing these changes.

Facing Up To The Truth, Susan E. Waltz

Human Rights & Human Welfare

American GIs who liberated Dachau from the Nazis in April 1945 exist in our collective memory as iconic representations of the American soldier-hero: competent and capable, disciplined, principled and fundamentally good. From their collective example, we expect American soldiers to reveal, report, and excoriate war crimes. This makes it difficult to acknowledge that Americans may also commit war crimes—and on a regular basis.

Invasive Species: A National Perspective And The Need For A Coordinated Response, Lori Williams

Managing Vertebrate Invasive Species

The multiple economic, environmental, and animal and human health impacts of invasive species pose complex challenges in policy formation and governmental coordination. The National Invasive Species Council (NISC) was established by an Executive Order in 1999 to provide coordination, planning and facilitate cooperation among the diverse federal agencies and to take a more comprehensive approach to invasive species. NISC, assisted by the nonfederal Invasive Species Advisory Committee (ISAC) has developed several tools and enhanced capacities to address invasive species. Additionally, NISC has helped place greater emphasis on essential prevention, early detection and rapid response, research, public outreach, and international cooperation …

Barriers To Recovery And Recommendations For Change: The Pennsylvania Consensus Conference On Psychiatry's Role., Joseph A. Rogers, Michael J. Vergare, Richard C. Baron, Mark S. Salzer

Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior Faculty Papers

OBJECTIVE: Recovery has emerged over the past decade as a dominant theme in public mental health care.

METHODS: The 2006 Pennsylvania Consensus Conference brought together 24 community psychiatrists to explore the barriers they experienced in promoting recovery and their recommendations for change.

RESULTS: Twelve barriers were identified and classified into one of three categories: psychiatry knowledge, roles, and training; the need to transform public mental health systems and services; and environmental barriers to opportunity. Participants made 22 recommendations to address these barriers through changes in policies, programs, and psychiatric knowledge and practice.

CONCLUSIONS: The recommendations identify areas for change that …

Creating Consumer Confidence Or Confusion? The Role Of Product Certification In The Market Today, Mark R. Barron

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

Product conformity assessment system changes in various countries have impacted the role of certification marks. The author explores whether the perceived value of product certification marks can sustain their high costs. The author further emphasizes the need, from both economic and legal perspectives, for manufacturers to implement global compliance strategies to ensure compliance with applicable regulations, selection of proper certification marks, and an efficient path through the conformity assessment process.
