is usually not uniruled in characteristic
No full textUsing etale cohomology, we define a birational invariant for varieties incharacteristic that serves as an obstruction to uniruledness - a variant onan obstruction to unirationality due to Ekedahl. We apply this to and show that is not uniruled incharacteristic as long as . To do this, we use Deligne'sdescription of the etale cohomology of and apply thetheory of congruences between modular forms.Comment: 10 pages, published versio
Employment Recession and Recovery in the 50 States: A Further Update
No full textPrivate-sector Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth ratios and employment recovery rates following the Great Recession are calculated for the 50 states, as well as Census regions and divisions. GDP growth rates measure the ratio of state private sector GDP in 2012 to that in 2007. States with 2012 private-sector GDP levels above their 2007 levels have GDP growth ratios greater than one, while those with private-sector GDP lower than their 2007 levels have ratios below one. Employment recovery rates measure the percentage of each state’s private-sector job losses during the recession that have been recovered as of June 2013. The nation’s private-sector GDP growth ratio is 1.026, and its employment recovery rate is 81.7 percent.This is the third in a series of reports measuring how private-sector employment has changed in the 50 states during the Great Recession and the subsequent recovery.This report was published as Issue Paper Number 36, July 2013, in Rutgers Regional Report

Employment Recession and Recovery in the 50 States
No full textThe goal of this paper is to provide a report of record of the employment performance of the 50 states during the Great Recession and the ensuing recovery period. The analysis presented here uses U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data to consistently measure the changes in private-sector jobs over the course of the employment cycle from July 2003 through June 2011, a period covering economic expansion, recession, and recovery.The nation lost 8,838,000 private-sector jobs over the 25-month period from January 2008 to February 2010, a rate of loss of 7.6 percent. In the job-recovery period from February 2010 through June 2011, the nation regained 2,230,000 private-sector jobs, a rate of increase of 2.1 percent and a recovery of 25.2 percent of all the private-sector job losses of the recession.The first part of this report measures the private-sector employment performance of each of the states and regions of the country. It also measures the shares of each state and region of the national job losses and job gains during the various phases of the employment cycle.The second part of the report measures the duration of the employment recession, the number of private-sector jobs lost, and the rate of job decline for each state. It then measures the duration of the job-recovery period, the number of private-sector jobs gained, the rate of private-sector job gain, and the percentages of job losses that have been recovered for each state. These rates and durations of decline and recovery are compared with the analogous national rates.Rutgers Regional Report Issue Paper 28This report was published as Issue Paper Number 28, September 2011, in Rutgers Regional Report
Employment Recession and Recovery in the 50 States: An Update
No full textJob recovery rates are calculated for all 50 states. The rate measures the percentage of a state’s private-sector employment losses during and after the recession that have been recovered as of June 2012. As a benchmark for comparing individual states, the national private-sector job recovery rate is 49.3 percent.Public-sector employment (federal, state, and local) increased well into the national recession. It was affected by numerous factors (federal countercyclical spending, deep tax-revenue declines for state and local governments, and varying political responses at the state and local levels in terms of tax increases versus service reductions).This report was published as Issue Paper Number 30, August 2012, in Rutgers Regional Report
I will if you will : towards sustainable consumption
No full textReport is summarised in 'I will if you will : towards sustainable consumption : a summary'.The Sustainable Consumption Roundtable (Great Britain), a joint initiative between the National Consumer Council and the Sustainable Development Commission, explored the challenge of UK consumption rates which, if reproduced globally, would require three planets' worth of resources. Globally we are already ‘living beyond our means’ to the tune of around 20%, despite the fact that a significant proportion of the world receive significantly less than their fair share.Publisher PD
The economic and fiscal impacts of Hurricane Sandy in New Jersey, a macroeconomic analysis
No full textThis report estimates the macroeconomic and fiscal impacts of Hurricane Sandy on the economy of New Jersey using the R/ECON™ forecasting model of the state’s economy. The model consists of more than 250 quarterly time-series equations and 30 employment sectors.The analysis takes into account both the economic losses resulting from the hurricane and the offsetting positive economic impacts associated with recovery and reconstruction spending in the months and years following the storm.However, the estimates of impacts depend upon the restoration expenditures actually being made. If the funds for these restoration and recovery expenditures are not made available, the offsetting positive impacts to the economy will not occur and the New Jersey economy will be significantly damaged. See Section 3 for estimates of the negative impacts if restoration expenditures are not made.This report was published as Issue Paper Number 34, January 2013, in Rutgers Regional Report
