Abstract:

This is a report of data drawn from a study of personal injury actions in the Superior Court of Alameda County, California, and in the federal district court for Northern California, for the period 1880–1900. Tort actions, in this period, were relatively uncommon compared to the number of accidents. The most frequent type of action was against common carriers—railroads and street railways. Malpractice actions were rare. Most fired cases were settled or dropped out before full trial and jury verdict. Though plaintiffs won damages in most jury cases, the overall finding is that the system provid

Abstract:

Several studies have rigorously documented the induced travel effect, in which added highway capacity leads to added vehicle travel. Despite the evidence, transportation planning practice does not fully account for this phenomenon, with the result that estimates of the potential congestion-reducing benefits of added highway capacity may be overstated and estimates of potential environmental impacts understated. In 2015, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) sponsored a review of applicable induced vehicle travel research that could inform transportation analysis guidance in re

The California judges' approach to these cases mirrored Congress's concern over "the enormous diversity of domestic arrangements" in slave

ABSTRACT State medical boards are charged with protecting the public by detecting incompetence and removing licenses of physicians who are unsafe to practice. However, licensed physicians routinely conceal evidence of negligence or incompetence from medical boards by inserting “regulatory gag clauses” into civil settlement agreements – provisions that prohibit injured patients from complaining to or cooperating with regulators. The author – who recently completed a two-year term as Enforcement Monitor at the Medical Board of California – argues for a statutory ban on the inclusion of regulator

Abstract:

The current state of the practice for traffic signal timing does not account for bicyclists in determining the minimum green times or clearance intervals. Like pedestrians, bicyclists need sufficient time to cross an intersection safely. However, this need must be balanced against possible delays for motorist traffic. Accurate estimates of crossing times for bicyclists are thus essential to the safe and efficient design of traffic signals. This paper presents data on bicycle crossing times for different crossing distances near the campus of the University of California at Davis and provides a

Abstract:

The radical revolution 1910—1917 in Mexico, gave rise to a powerful conservative movement, supported by the masses in regions where revolutionary changes had conflicting results, contributing to the formation of a kind of Mexican “Vendée”. Such a region was the center of the country — Bajio, which became the scene of sharp clashes in the 1920s, which resulted in the civil war of the cristeros, who raised their arms after the adoption of anti-church legislation. After the defeat of the cristeros, the leadership in confronting the revolutionary government shifted to the Synarchist movement, whic

ABSTRACT The impetus for buildings to decarbonize and move towards radical energy and water efficiency is increasingly strong and identified as a priority within the green building sector. The tiny house movement offers an opportunity to both address the challenges of affordable housing and contribute to residential building decarbonization. Tiny houses de-emphasize mass consumption and excessive belongings and have potential to address equity issues such as gentrification by providing living spaces to low-income residents in desirable housing locations.

Abstract:

Over the last four decades, race-conscious admission policies have been the subject of heated judicial and social controversy. In 1978, in the case Regents of the University of California v. Bakke, the consideration of race was held to be permissible to serve the compelling interest of promoting diversity in higher education. Since then, this issue has come up before the Supreme Court severaltimes. In October 2022, the Supreme Court of the United States heard oral arguments in two cases—Students for Fair Admissions v.

Abstract:

Abstract The purpose of regulating any profession is to assure competent practitioners, particularly where its absence can cause irreparable harm. Regulatory “licensing” ideally achieves such assurance, while at the same time avoiding unnecessary supply constriction. The latter can mean much higher prices and an inadequate number of practitioners. Regrettably, the universal delegation to attorneys of the power to regulate themselves has led to a lose/lose system lacking protection from incompetent practice while also diminishing needed supply. The problem is manifest in four regulatory flaws:

Abstract:

One of the significant issues persisting in the study of soil stabilization is the establishment of the optimum proportions of the quantity of stabilizer to be added to the soil. Determining optimum solutions or the most feasible remedies for the utilization of stabilizing products in terms of their dose rates has become a significant concern in major civil engineering design projects. Using the response surface methodology, this study primarily focused on investigating the optimal levels of reinforcement fiber length (FL), fiber dosage (FD), and curing time (CT) for geotechnical parameters of

Abstract COMPENSATION TO VICTIMS OF CRIMINAL OFFENCES The system of composition, which was developed during the Middle Ages, especially under Germanic penal law, represents not only an abatement of the system of collective vengeance characteristic of this era, but also the first step towards the principle of compensation to victims of criminal offences. With the development and consolidation of a strong central power, the State asked for a share of these transactions either in the form of sanction or as a price for its intervention.

Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to employees of private companies and civil servants (PNS) in Pekalongan City using Google Forms. The analysis method employed was Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using SmartPLS 3.0 software. The results indicate that transformational leadership has a positive and significant effect on both tacit and explicit knowledge sharing.

This excerpt offers a collection of the myth and truth—often indistinguishable—behind The Royal Chicano Air Force, an artist collective that played a key role in the Chicano civil rights movement. Playing with ideas about the preservation of history and its perceived truth, the archives – a series of original artist books - blend Pre-Columbian and Western record-keeping practices with running historical references to make real the ongoing mythologizing of the group, and to offer alternative readings of California history and public space.

Responses from the survey of 350 employers and 700 commuters revealed that telecommuting is found at 15 percent of firms with 20 or more employees and that employers allow telecommuting to he

Abstract:

More than 40 cities have participated in the California Healthy Cities Project since its inception in 1988. Because Healthy Cities efforts are community driven, these cities address diverse health and social issues using a wide variety of strategies. This complexity, in addition to the usual difficulties associated with evaluating community interventions, creates many challenges for evaluation. Given the community building and process orientation of Healthy Cities, it may be most appropriate to measure intermediate community changes that have been linked to health outcomes in previous research
