  • "The Energy Crisis" Carroll County Times Article for 7 February 1999
    "The Energy Crisis" Carroll County Times Article for 7 February 1999 By Jay A. Graybeal I recently filled up my minivan with gasoline, a unremarkable event to say the least. Twenty-five years ago, however, I could not have have done so because the nation was in the painful throes of the "Energy Crisis". Nearly every week, the local press carried front page news stories about the crisis and there were frequent editorials about causes and solutions. My clearest memory of the crisis involved driving to Frederick, waiting an hour for 10 gallons of gas and feeling proud of my accomplishment. This newspaper carried two stories about the crisis in the February 14, 1974 issue of the paper under the headline of "Shortages Bring Hard Times To Station Owners". The first story, "Rival's Closing Brings Frowns" described the impending closing of the Gulf station in Manchester: "When Ken Gerst's Gulf station closes at the end of the month the competition at Manchester's two remaining service station's won't be smiling. "It's going to be terrible for the rest of us." said Mobil station operator Leon Miller. "We simply don't have enough gas to take care of his customers." Speaking about the problems he and BP station owner Donald Rhoten will encounter next month. Miller said, "We've got to come up with 5,000 gallons apiece and we haven't got it." "It's going to ruin me," Rhoten said of Gerst's closing. "What am I going to do? With half of my allotment I can't take care of his (customers) and mine both.

  • Taming Cerberus: the Beast at AEDPA’S Gates Patrick J
    Taming Cerberus: The Beast at AEDPA’s Gates Patrick J. Fuster† INTRODUCTION The Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 19961 (AEDPA) established the current regime under which federal courts address petitions for a writ of habeas corpus by state prisoners. Riddled with ambiguities, AEDPA has frustrated judges and commentators alike.2 Because Congress either failed to conclusively resolve or—more likely—did not even consider the text’s application to a multitude of intricate scenarios, judges fall back on three considerations that animate federal habeas jurisprudence to construct the AEDPA regime: finality, comity, and federalism.3 Currently without limitations, this three- headed beast wreaks havoc, upending traditional methods of statutory interpretation and neutral decision-making.4 To resolve † BA 2014, University of California, Berkeley; JD Candidate 2018, The University of Chicago Law School. 1 Pub L No 104-132, 110 Stat 1214. 2 Justice David Souter famously remarked that “in a world of silk purses and pigs’ ears, the Act is not a silk purse of the art of statutory drafting.” Lindh v Murphy, 521 US 320, 336 (1997). See also Lee Kovarsky, AEDPA’s Wrecks: Comity, Finality, and Federal- ism, 82 Tulane L Rev 443, 447 (2007) (describing the provisions of AEDPA as “hastily ratified and poorly cohered”). 3 See, for example, Davis v Ayala, 135 S Ct 2187, 2197 (2015) (“For reasons of finali- ty, comity, and federalism, habeas petitioners are not entitled to habeas relief based on trial error unless they can establish that it resulted in ‘actual prejudice.’”) (quotation marks omitted); McQuiggin v Perkins, 133 S Ct 1924, 1932 (2013) (“It would be passing strange to interpret a statute seeking to promote federalism and comity as requiring .

Docket No. 5:10-cv-00489-MTT MARION WILSON, JR., Petitioner-Appellant, versus WARDEN, GEORGIA DIAGNOSTIC PRISON, Respondent-Appellee. ________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia ________________________ (August 23, 2016) Before ED CARNES, Chief Judge, TJOFLAT, HULL, MARCUS, WILSON, WILLIAM PRYOR, MARTIN, JORDAN, ROSENBAUM, JULIE CARNES, and JILL PRYOR, Circuit Judges. WILLIAM PRYOR, Circuit Judge: This appeal requires us to decide whether, when a federal court reviews a state prisoner’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus, it must “look through” a Case: 14-10681 Date Filed: 08/23/2016 Page: 2 of 92 summary decision on the merits by a state appellate court to review the last reasoned decision. Marion Wilson, Jr., a Georgia prisoner sentenced to death for the murder of Donovan Parks in 1996, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in the Superior Court of Butts County, Georgia. That court denied his petition in a written opinion. Wilson sought to appeal that decision, and the Supreme Court of Georgia summarily denied his application for a certificate of probable cause to appeal. The district court then denied Wilson’s federal petition for a writ of habeas corpus, and after reviewing the one-sentence decision of the Georgia Supreme Court, we affirmed. Wilson v. Warden, Ga.

Her father was a New York state senator from 1963 to 1966, and her mother was an activist. This upbringing Tshaped her socially engaged art; for the past 15 years, she has worked collaboratively across media and disciplines. Wilson connects with undervalued communities and landscapes and interfaces with architects, developers, and scientists as a strategy to tackle social and ecological issues. She embraces scientific methods and apparatuses that facilitate “looking closely and paying attention to what is small and omnipresent and overlooked, while drawing parallels between the natural world and the most fundamental aspects of human presence.” In her current exhibition, The Landscape Is Sanctuary to Our Fears, Wilson builds upon her extensive background partnering with scientists, students, and communities. While an associate professor at Syracuse University, Wilson studied bryophytes, or moss, for a semester with botanist Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer. Wilson was significantly influenced by Dr. Kimmerer’s approach using Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK), which draws on the wisdom of both indigenous and scientific knowledge toward the shared goal of sustainability.
