    Common sense dictates that some customers of an on-line brokerage service are bound to have some of the same difficulties in conducting business but that does not mean all customers or even many customers had the same problems. In addition, as to customers who may have had problems executing buy and/or sell orders, there are many variables regarding the circumstances and conditions for each customer\u27s transaction. Variables such as, but not limited to, account status, time of order, i.e., time of day and day of the week, and the customer\u27s computer modem capabilities and internet service provider. Plaintiffs fail to allege sufficient evidence that this claim is typical of the proposed class under like or similar circumstances

    Conquering Gender Stereotypes One Football at a Time

    In the U.S., gender stereotypes in sports are real. As a result, women who are involved with professional sports, either as players or have professional positions face negative stereotypes. When women have coaching positions, they feel unsupported from administrators and colleagues, which has a direct impact on their involvement and prove their credibility at their jobs (LaFountaine and Kamphoff 2016). My thesis here is that there is a relationship between the impact of negative stereotypes for women who are active in sports and their involvement. For, they do not receive sufficient support. The hypothesis, taken from the above thesis, is that is there a relationship between the negative stereotyping of women and the impact on their involvement in their job? In order to test my hypotheses, I used qualitative research methods, reading extensive literature research from the articles of peer-reviewed journals, books, and stories of personal experiences of professional women in sports. The results showed that women who have profession in sports do receive negative stereotyping and it’s impact on their involvement. Therefore, I believe, this is an area that needs to be addressed and dealt with, so that women can enter in this profession positively.https://digitalcommons.morris.umn.edu/urs_2018/1003/thumbnail.jp

    Issue 1: Caring Society v Canada: Neoliberalism, Social Reproduction, and Indigenous Child Welfare

    Get PDF
    In January 2016, the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal in First Nations Child and Family Caring Society of Canada v Canada (Caring Society) found that the Canadian government had discriminated against Indigenous children on reserve in its provision of funding for child welfare and certain other services. Caring Society is a case about the daily and generational work that is needed in any society to ensure social, cultural, and economic survival, or what feminist political economists call social reproduction. This article thus asks a central question of this decision: are the main constitutional issues it raises best understood as contests over, and crises of, care
