Presidential Self-Regulation through Rulemaking

President Ford issued Executive Order No. 11905 on February 18, 1976. During the preceding months, congressional committees had been engaged in exhaustive, critical and widely publicized investigations into the activities of the Central Intelligence Agency and other intelligence activities of the government. The Executive Order was a presidential response to the public concern which had been generated by the disclosures resulting from these investigations. The present article will not pursue the controversy surrounding the intelligence activities of the United States, but will instead explore some of the broader issues raised by the exercise of the President\u27s constitutional powers through actions such as E.O.11905. For purposes of this discussion, presidential actions of general applicability and future effect, such as E.O. 11905, are regarded as rules, and the process by which they are prepared and issued is regarded as rulemaking. These terms are borrowed, by analogy, from administrative law; the limits of this analogy will be duly considered

We consider a distributed detection system under communication constraints, where several peripheral nodes observe a common phenomenon and send their observations to a fusion center via error-free but rate-constrained channels. Using the minimum expected error probability as a design criterion, we propose a cyclic procedure for the design of the peripheral nodes using the person-by-person methodology. It is shown that a fine-grained binning idea together with a method for updating the conditional probabilities of the joint index space at the fusion center, decrease the complexity of the algorithm and make it tractable. Also, unlike previous methods which use dissimilarity measures (e.g., the Bhattacharyya distance), a-prior hypothesis probabilities are allowed to contribute to the design in the proposed method. The performance of the proposed method is comparedto a method due to Longo et al.’s and it is shown that the new method can significantly outperform the previous one at a comparable complexity.QC 20141203</p

THE BASIC ELEMENTS OF THE TESTAMENT IN THE ENGLISH LEGISLATION

Common Law represents the second biggest contemporary judicial system. Immanent to a historical process which led to the creation of a community, common law represents a form of social solidarity. It is not the result of any social consent to obey a law as much as it is the participation of the society, through its exceptions, to the process of elaborating the law by which it functions. So, society itself is through a sort of syncretism the common law.One the elementary concepts of common law is the doctrine of precedent which functions in parallel with organic laws in order to enhance both the results of judicial cases and the efficiency of the cases. In the English law, the testament is a representation of the wishes of a defunct person and the declaration of that persons wishes in relation to the belongings he wished to pass on after his death
