Freedom of expression has surfaced in large parts of the world, particularly the newly independent nations and the countries that remained in isolation, along with the spread of democracies in those countries. With the rise of free expression of views often contesting with one another, conflicts of different kinds that were under suppression earlier, also emerged. Conflict in itself is considered neither good nor bad but it is judged by its outcome. Study of conflict, specifically the causes behind it relating to power struggle, economic competition, is important for achieving peace.

If I have not asked your Lordship for your formal leave to dedicate this Volume to you, this has been because one part of it, written by me as an Anglican controversialist, could not be consistently offered for the direct sanction of a Catholic bishop. If, in spite of this, I presume to inscribe your name in its first page, I do so because I have a freedom in this matter which you have not, because I covet much to be associated publicly with you, and because I trust to gain your forgiveness for a somewhat violent proceeding, on the plea that I may perhaps...

The attention of the world has been called to the great strike and lockout in the building trades in Chicago because it rested upon the question of individual liberty--a question which is not only vital alike to the employer and the employe, but which affects every industry, every class of people, every city, state and country. It is a principle which antagonizes no motive which has been honestly conceived, but upon which rests--or should rest--the entire social, political and industrial fabric of a nation. It underlies the very foundation of free institutions.

A board’s role is to provide oversight, not to manage risks. Just as a board does not manage a fund’s investments or its business operations, it also does not manage the risks associated with those activities. Board oversight includes understanding the risk management processes employed by the adviser, asking questions where appropriate, and obtaining appropriate assurances that the processes are reasonably designed to manage and control the fund’s material risks.

This difference is substantial and highly statistically significant in all specifications. These results are consistent with two different hypotheses. First, unobservable factors at the management company level could be associated with both the decision to specialize in SRI funds and higher fees and performance. In this case, socially responsible investing itself would not have any effect on performance or fees.

Over the last 30–40 years, the former territories of the British Caribbean have been a laboratory in which the generally accepted ‘Westminster System’ is being adapted to suit the patterns of behaviour of the people of the area. Sir Fred Phillips has played an active part in some of these processes of adaptation and in other cases he has been an informed observer whose advice has been sought by the participants themselves.

Marketing has been witness to a growing degree of finesse in being able to reach its target audience. This movement to identify and subsequently target a specific group of the population began with the understanding of the demographic profile of the target group to be reached. This was subsequently enhanced by the addition of other characteristics such as geographic location of audience members, their psychographic profile, and then on the basis of the technological developments (Example: scanners) consumer product usage data.

The critical role of the NMMAPS in the development of the air quality standards attracted intense scrutiny from the scientific community and industry groups regarding the statistical models that are used and the methods that are employed for adjusting for potential confound- ing. Confounding occurs when an attribute that is associated with an outcome is also associated with the exposure of interest but is not a result of the exposure. In time series studies, we are primarily concerned with potential confounding by factors that vary on similar timescales as pollution or mortality.

We should all be prospectors of happiness. There are those who discover it in the solitudes of the mountains where freedom is breathed in the air that touches the lofty .peaks. Others find it in the depths of the forest in the songs of the birds, of the brook, of the trees. Most of us must find it in the daily walks of life where the seeking is ofttimes difficult. Nevertheless, there it is in the manufactured glory of the city, in the voices of children, and in the hearts and faces of men. Happiness becomes a habit with some;...
