Over There: Teaching International And Comparative Law At West Point
The 2013 International Law Weekend panel discussion, Teaching International Law Outside Law Schools, was considered by many present to be a novel reflection on the challenges of transplanting a law school-level course in international law to non-law students

Seven Steps Towards the Classical World
Classical physics is about real objects, like apples falling from trees,
whose motion is governed by Newtonian laws. In standard Quantum Mechanics only
the wave function or the results of measurements exist, and to answer the
question of how the classical world can be part of the quantum world is a
rather formidable task. However, this is not the case for Bohmian mechanics,
which, like classical mechanics, is a theory about real objects. In Bohmian
terms, the problem of the classical limit becomes very simple: when do the
Bohmian trajectories look Newtonian?Comment: 16 pages, LaTeX, uses latexsy
Scaling of the electron dissipation range of solar wind turbulence
Electron scale solar wind turbulence has attracted great interest in recent
years. Clear evidences have been given from the Cluster data that turbulence is
not fully dissipated near the proton scale but continues cascading down to the
electron scales. However, the scaling of the energy spectra as well as the
nature of the plasma modes involved at those small scales are still not fully
determined. Here we survey 10 years of the Cluster search-coil magnetometer
(SCM) waveforms measured in the solar wind and perform a statistical study of
the magnetic energy spectra in the frequency range []Hz. We show that a
large fraction of the spectra exhibit clear breakpoints near the electon
gyroscale , followed by steeper power-law like spectra. We show that
the scaling below the electron breakpoint cannot be determined unambiguously
due to instrumental limitations that will be discussed in detail. We compare
our results to recent ones reported in other studies and discuss their
implication on the physical mechanisms and the theoretical modeling of energy
dissipation in the SW.Comment: 10 pages, submitte
