Procedural Due Process in the Cancellation of Air Mail Route Certificates [Part 1]

While the dominant concern in this article is to consider the legality and propriety of the issuance of the order canceling air mail route certificates in February, 1934, the requirements of procedural due process of the Fifth Amendment of the Federal Constitution in promulgating this order, and the litigation resulting therefrom, the historical and congressional background of the aviation industry, with special emphasis upon air mail, will first be briefly surveyed

Defining and Attaining Equal Educational Opportunity in a Pluralistic Society

We in America have never made peace with the concept of pluralism. As a nation, we are fundamentally committed to the ideal of equal opportunity ; yet, despite our presumably concomitant dedication to the principle that society should accommodate diverse values and goals,we have not conceptualized any means of determining whether equality of opportunity exists except by measuring people on the same scale. We have an appropriate rhetoric for describing equal opportunity--self-actualization, through which each person develops to the fullest extent in those directions that he or she wishes--but we have no institutionalized standards for determining whether realization of potential has been accomplished more or less evenly across diverse groups. A basic consideration underlying any approach to this problem is whether two peoples, living under the same government, valuing different objects, and enjoying different ventures, can find any bases for comparing their opportunities to express and pursue those distinctive matters most desirable to them? Indeed, can it ever be said that equal opportunity exists between peoples not pursuing the same goals? The purpose of this Article is to offer comment on the nature of equal educational opportunity and the problem of realizing it in the contemporary United States

The mechanosensitive ion channel TRAAK is localized to the mammalian node of Ranvier.

TRAAK is a membrane tension-activated K+ channel that has been associated through behavioral studies to mechanical nociception. We used specific monoclonal antibodies in mice to show that TRAAK is localized exclusively to nodes of Ranvier, the action potential propagating elements of myelinated nerve fibers. Approximately 80 percent of myelinated nerve fibers throughout the central and peripheral nervous system contain TRAAK in what is likely an all-nodes or no-nodes per axon fashion. TRAAK is not observed at the axon initial segment where action potentials are first generated. We used polyclonal antibodies, the TRAAK inhibitor RU2 and node clamp amplifiers to demonstrate the presence and functional properties of TRAAK in rat nerve fibers. TRAAK contributes to the leak K+ current in mammalian nerve fiber conduction by hyperpolarizing the resting membrane potential, thereby increasing Na+ channel availability for action potential propagation. We speculate on why nodes of Ranvier contain a mechanosensitive K+ channel

Neutrino Masses in Supersymmetry: R-Parity and Leptogenesis

In the supersymmetric standard model of particle interactions, R-parity nonconservation is often invoked to obtain nonzero neutrino masses. We point out here that such interactions of the supersymmetric particles would erase any pre-existing lepton or baryon asymmetry of the universe before the electroweak phase transition through the $B + L$ violating sphaleron processes. We then show how neutrino masses may be obtained in supersymmetry (assuming R-parity conservation) together with successful leptogenesis and predict the possible existence of new observable particles.Comment: LATEX, 12 page
