Jednak nigdzie indziej, tak jak w Stanach Zjednoczonych, od wyników wyborów nie zależy tak wiele. Ich wynik będzie miał wpływ nie tylko na to, którą drogą podążać będzie Ameryka, ale także na wydarzenia w skali globalnej. Od tego, kto zostanie nowym gospodarzem Białego Domu – przywódcą jedynego światowego mocarstwa – uwarunkowane są losy całego świata. W świetle konstytucji Stanów Zjednoczonych kandydat na prezydenta musi być obywatelem amerykańskim urodzonym w Stanach, mieć ukończone 35 lat i mieszkać, od co najmniej 14 lat na terenie USA. Takie same wymagania dotyczą także kandydata na wiceprezydenta. Co więcej nie może on pochodzić z tego samego stanu co kandydat na prezydenta. Prezydent USA wybierany jest w wyborach pośrednich. Data wyborów przypada zawsze w pierwszy wtorek, po pierwszym poniedziałku listopada. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's just what happened. Programs and personnel of NBC News television and radio garnered many dozens of formal honors from universities, press associations, pub- lications, foundations and the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. Such recognition is tremendously gratifying. We're confident it will help inspire the men and women of NBC News to continue their task with energy and dedication- right through 1969. But that's the only prediction we'll venture.

Connecticut Law Review. 38. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/law_review/38 CONNECTICUT LAW REVIEW VOLUME 41 JULY 2009 NUMBER 5 Note FOURTH AND SHORT ON EQUALITY: THE DISPARATE IMPACT OF THE NFL’S USE OF THE WONDERLIC INTELLIGENCE TEST AND THE CASE FOR A FOOTBALL-SPECIFIC TEST CHRISTOPHER HATCH Prior to being selected in the NFL draft, a player must undergo a series of physical and mental evaluations, including the Wonderlic Intelligence Test. The twelve-minute test, which measures “cognitive ability,” has been shown to have a disparate impact on minorities in various employment situations. This Note contends that the NFL’s use of the Wonderlic also has a disparate impact because of its effect on a player’s draft status and ultimately his salary. The test cannot be justified by business necessity because there is no correlation between a player’s Wonderlic score and their on-field performance. As such, this Note calls for the creation of a football-specific intelligence test that would be less likely to have a disparate impact than the Wonderlic, while also being sufficiently job-related and more reliable in predicting a player’s success.

  • These Strange Criminals: an Anthology Of
    ‘THESE STRANGE CRIMINALS’: AN ANTHOLOGY OF PRISON MEMOIRS BY CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTORS FROM THE GREAT WAR TO THE COLD WAR In many modern wars, there have been those who have chosen not to fight. Be it for religious or moral reasons, some men and women have found no justification for breaking their conscientious objection to vio- lence. In many cases, this objection has lead to severe punishment at the hands of their own governments, usually lengthy prison terms. Peter Brock brings the voices of imprisoned conscientious objectors to the fore in ‘These Strange Criminals.’ This important and thought-provoking anthology consists of thirty prison memoirs by conscientious objectors to military service, drawn from the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, and centring on their jail experiences during the First and Second World Wars and the Cold War. Voices from history – like those of Stephen Hobhouse, Dame Kathleen Lonsdale, Ian Hamilton, Alfred Hassler, and Donald Wetzel – come alive, detailing the impact of prison life and offering unique perspectives on wartime government policies of conscription and imprisonment. Sometimes intensely mov- ing, and often inspiring, these memoirs show that in some cases, indi- vidual conscientious objectors – many well-educated and politically aware – sought to reform the penal system from within either by publicizing its dysfunction or through further resistance to authority. The collection is an essential contribution to our understanding of criminology and the history of pacifism, and represents a valuable addition to prison literature. peter brock is a professor emeritus in the Department of History at the University of Toronto.
