PALMER Attorneys Department of Justice Washington, D.C. 20530-0001 [email protected] (202) 514-2217 QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Whether the court of appeals erred in concluding that respondent’s capital sentences must be vacated on the ground that the district court, during its 21-day voir dire, did not ask each prospective juror for a specific accounting of the pretrial media coverage that he or she had read, heard, or seen about respondent’s case. 2. Whether the district court committed reversible error at the penalty phase of respondent’s trial by ex- cluding evidence that respondent’s older brother was allegedly involved in different crimes two years before the offenses for which respondent was convicted.

  • The Armenian Cause in America Today
    THE ARMENIAN CAUSE IN AMERICA TODAY While meager Turkish American NGO assets are dedicated to cultural events and providing education on a wide range of political issues, approximately $40 million in Armenian American NGO assets are primarily dedicated to what is referred to in Armenian as Hai Tahd, ‘The Armenian Cause’. Hai Tahd includes three policy objectives: Recognition that the 1885-1919 Armenian tragedy constitutes genocide; Reparations from Turkey; and, Restitution of the eastern provinces of Turkey to Armenia. This paper examines the Armenian American strategy and the response of Turkish American via the Assembly of Turkish American Associations (ATAA). Günay Evinch Gunay Evinch (Övünç) practices international public law at Saltzman & Evinch and serves as Assembly of Turkish American Associations (ATAA) Vice-President for the Capital Region. He researched the Armenian case in Turkey as a U.S. Congressional Fulbright Scholar and Japan Sasakawa Peace Foundation Scholar in international law in 1991-93. To view media coverage and photographs associated with this article, please see, Günay Evinch, “The Armenian Cause Today,” The Turkish American, Vol. 2, No. 8 (Summer 2005), pp. 22-29. Also viewable at www.ATAA.org The Ottoman Armenian tragedy of 1880-1919 is a dark episode in the history of Turkish and Armenian relations. Over one million Muslims, mostly Kurds, Turks, and Arabs, and almost 600,000 Armenians perished in eastern Anatolia alone. WWI took the lives of 10 million combatants and 50 million civilians. While Russia suffered the greatest population deficit, the Ottoman Empire lost over five million, of which nearly 4 million were Muslims, 600,000 were Armenian, 300,000 were Greek, and 100,000 were Ottoman Jews.1 Moreover, the millennial Armenian presence in eastern Anatolia ended.

  • The Impact of Prize Money on Marathon Performance and Acclaim
    THE IMPACT OF PRIZE MONEY ON MARATHON PERFORMANCE AND ACCLAIM A THESIS Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Colbert Heathcott March 2015 THE IMPACT OF PRIZE MONEY ON MARATHON PERFORMANCE AND ACCLAIM Colbert Heathcott March 2015 Economics Abstract In the past century, marathon running has become a major phenomenon in society. As a result, race participation and frequency have increased in the United States over the past decade. With the increased growth of the sport, the amount of money and the overall economic impact of races have risen, causing event organizers and sponsors to face decisions involving race awards and funding. Using an OLS regression model, this study examines the impact of prize money on marathon performance and acclaim. Results reveal marathon running to be exempt from incentive theory, as athletes do not perform better as a result of increases in winning prize money. Prize money also has no significant impact on the popularity of marathon events. Other factors, such as marathon location and history, significantly affect the acclaim of a marathon event. A thorough understanding on the impact of prize money is necessary for the future of the growing sport of marathon running. KEYWORDS: (Marathon, Incentive, Sports Marketing) ON MY HONOR, I HAVE NEITHER GIVEN NOR RECEIVED UNAUTHORIZED AID ON THIS THESIS Colbert Heathcott Signature Acknowledgments I would like to thank Dr. Judy Laux for advising me throughout the process of this research. I would also like to thank Will Richmond for Monday dinners, morning laps in the pool, and forcing me to go to the library.

AUTORAS: ANA LIZ CORDERO MALDONADO 0106445372 TANIA CAROLINA CORDERO GARZÓN 0105756399 TUTOR: ING. JUAN FERNANDO CASTILLO SERRANO 0103885630 CUENCA - ECUADOR 2018 UNIVERSIDAD DE CUENCA Resumen El presente trabajo investigativo tiene como objetivo conocer el impacto que tiene el visual merchandising en la recordación de marcas aplicadas en la tienda Marathon Sports, por ende, conocer el TOM, por sus siglas en inglés (arriba en la mente del consumidor en una categoría) y las preferencias de compra de calzado deportivo de las marcas Adidas, Nike y Puma. Actualmente, existe una gran diversidad de marcas en calzado deportivo importados, sin embargo, el comprador puede desconocer los beneficios, que da cada una de ellas, siendo importante que el producto se muestre y organice correctamente para facilitar la decisión de compra. El merchandising es una estrategia que además de influir en el comportamiento del consumidor, también, se encarga del diseño de la tienda, decoración de escaparates, iluminación, exhibidores y ambientes. Para Santamaría (2014), la misma se concibe como el juicio subjetivo de un consumidor sobre la excelencia o superioridad del producto. En la actualidad, no se evidencian estudios enfocados en conocer, porque, se prefiere un tipo de marca de calzado deportivo, por ello, que se considera necesario investigar algunas variables dentro del proceso comercial al momento de realizar la compra, por lo que el presente trabajo está enfocado determinar la influencia del visual merchandising en la recordación de marca y preferencia de compra de ciertas marcas reconocidas a nivel mundial.

Traxler, Jr., Senior United States Circuit Judge for the Fourth Circuit, sitting by designation. Case: 19-10245 Date Filed:(2 of 23)06/19/2020 Page: 2 of 22 PER CURIAM: Hassan Shibly, as personal representative of the estate of Ibragim Todashev and on behalf of Todashev’s survivors, (the “Plaintiff”), brought this action against the United States of America, FBI Special Agent Aaron McFarlane, Joint Terrorism Task Force Officer Christopher Savard of the Orlando Police Department, and Massachusetts State Troopers Curtis Cinelli and Joel Gagne. The lawsuit arises out of a joint federal and state investigation into the Boston Marathon bombings and a triple murder in Waltham, Massachusetts, which led to Todashev being shot and killed by Agent McFarlane. Count I asserted claims against the United States under the Federal Tort Claims Act (“FTCA”), 28 U.S.C. §§ 2671-2680, for the negligent hiring, supervision, and retention of McFarlane, and for the wrongful death of Todashev.
