It is in the degree in which we can find the use and appreciate the beauty, that the one is valued as of profit, the other as of pleasure.” The author focuses on beauty in depth, and describes beauty as a joy forever.https://digitalcommons.winthrop.edu/manuscriptcollection_findingaids/2130/thumbnail.jp
Gilmore and Carlson on Secured Lending : Claims in Bankruptcy
No full textEnormous revolutions have occurred in commercial law since the publication of the landmark GILMORE ON SECURITY INTERESTS IN PERSONAL PROPERTY. In this new edition, The author analyzes the law of secured credit under federal bankruptcy law. He presents an exhaustive and authoritative analysis of secured claims in bankruptcy since even secured creditors cannot rely passively on their relatively privileged status but must avoid potential pitfalls to recovery and actively pursue all available assets of the debtor. Virtually all of the material is new to this revision since secured creditors were largely immune from bankruptcy administration prior to 1978. Secured interests are now enforced in bankruptcy proceedings far more than anywhere else. Moreover, bankruptcy law does not adhere to a distinction between real and personal property. In Part I the authors cover the avoidance powers of a bankruptcy trustee against security interests otherwise good under state law. Among the topics covered are voidable preferences, commingled bank accounts, lapsed perfection, and exempt property. Part II begins the discussion of the administrative treatment of a secured claim once it is established as valid in bankruptcy. Topics included are liquidation and reorganization, reinstatement and cure, special status of airplanes, redemption and affirmation, automatic stay, proofs of claim, adequate protection and cash collateral. Part III concludes with analysis of after-acquired property and proceeds, proceeds and voidable preferences, power of sale, surcharge, post petition secured credit, \u27double elevens,\u27 classification veto, equity cushions, post petition interest rates, and fees, costs, and charges. Gilmore and Carlson on Secured Lending: Claims in Bankruptcy will enable practitioners to serve the interests of their creditor clients more effectively by recovering the maximum amount possible from any bankruptcy proceeding.https://larc.cardozo.yu.edu/faculty-books/1030/thumbnail.jp

Stratigraphic Studies of the Gilmore City Formation at Rutland, Iowa
No full textAn interesting relationship between the beds of limestone and dolomite in a quarry and at outcrops along the Des Moines River near Rutland, Iowa, is described. In the quarry a composite of 11 feet of limestone-dolomite-limestone is exposed, whereas at an outcrop along the river 300 feet northeast the dolomite is absent and 12 feet of limestone is exposed. These beds of limestone and dolomite have been referred to the St. Louis formation uncomformably overlying Gilmore City limestone. The author proposes that the dolomite represents an area of late diagenetic alteration within the Gilmore City formation
Empowerment and effectiveness: a mixed methods study of coalition building within a statewide substance abuse prevention context
No full textThis study contributes to the literature by testing a conceptual model of the relationships between empowering organizational characteristics and individual empowerment and their impact on perceived effectiveness within coalitions implementing a substance abuse prevention framework. Excessive drinking among adolescents and young adults is a significant problem in the United States and contributes to a wide range of costly consequences, including motor vehicle crashes, suicide, interpersonal violence, and alcohol poisoning (SAMSHA, 2012). In addition to excessive drinking, an estimated 22.5 million Americans aged 12 or older, (8.7 percent), reported current use of illicit drugs in 2011, with marijuana use on the rise and the current most commonly used illicit drug (SAMHSA, 2012). The U.S. Department of Justice (2011a) estimated the economic cost of illicit drug use to society for 2007 was more than $193 billion. The present study adopted a mixed methods convergent parallel design, (Creswell & Plano Clark, 2011) which included analysis of secondary quantitative and qualitative data that were collected in 2011 for the evaluation of the adoption of the Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) in New Jersey. Participants were drawn from a purposeful, non-random sample of staff and members within eleven New Jersey coalitions implementing the SPF (n = 138 survey participants; n = 20 interview participants). Using organizational and individual empowerment theories within the conceptual framework, the present study examined psychological empowerment and empowering organizational characteristics and their impacts on perceived effectiveness within coalitions. This study included descriptive, path, and qualitative analyses. The path model showed a good fit to the data with the hypothesized pathways. Psychological empowerment and sense of community had direct, positive effects on perceived effectiveness. Direct effects of organizational characteristics on perceived effectiveness were found as well as indirect effects through their relationships to sense of community and psychological empowerment. Previous research on individual empowerment and organizational empowerment has not included the relationship to self-reported effectiveness. Practical implications include developing coalition training on the SPF with emphasis on organizational characteristics that foster members’ empowerment, increase coalition effectiveness, and improve positive community impact.Ph.
