It was followed by singles by Kevin Mitchell and Ray Knight.

  • The Economic Framework for Assessing Comcast's Exclusionary Conduct
    -77- FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION A. The Economic Framework for Assessing Comcast's Exclusionary Conduct 122. Antitrust economics considers exclusionary conduct to be anticompetitive if it impairs a rival's efficiency or its ability to impose price discipline. Such conduct can occur by raising a rival's costs, by degrading a rival's quality of service,256 or by depriving rivals of economies of scale.257 Anticompetitive effects may be realized regardless of whether the rival is driven out of the market entirely;258 they require that the rival faces increasing marginal costs or large upfront costs or both. If the conduct forces the rival to operate on a higher portion of its marginal cost curve, then such conduct would achieve partial foreclosure, and the rival would not be able to constrain prices as effectively. In the extreme case, when the conduct prevents the rival from covering its average variable costs, the conduct would induce exit and thereby achieve complete foreclosure. 123. Exclusionary strategies can take several forms, and such strategies can be used to extend monopoly power from one market into another, or to maintain monopoly power in a !pven market. When the markets in question are vertically aligned, exclusionary conduct is referred to as "vertical restraints," and the effect of such conduct is called "vertical foreclosure.',259 Because regional sports programming, national sports programming, local broadcast affiliates, and online programming are inputs in the production process of video 256. See Steven C. Salop & David T. Scheffman, Cost-Raising Strategies, 36 J. IND. ECON. 19 (1987). 257. See, e.g., Richard A Posner, Vertical Restraints and Antitrust Policy, 72 U.

  • Based Organizations in Helping Low-Income Individuals Improve Their Use of Credit and Credit Scores As Part of a Wealth-Building Strategy
    AN EXAMINATION OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF COMMUNITY- BASED ORGANIZATIONS IN HELPING LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS IMPROVE THEIR USE OF CREDIT AND CREDIT SCORES AS PART OF A WEALTH-BUILDING STRATEGY A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Anne Roder July 2016 Examining Committee Members: David Elesh, Advisory Chair, Department of Sociology Robert Kaufman, Department of Sociology Judith Levine, Department of Sociology Gerald Stahler, Department of Geography and Urban Studies ABSTRACT In the U.S., wealth is unequally distributed across racial and income groups. Scholars have promoted numerous strategies to address inequalities in wealth, but evidence about their effectiveness is limited. This dissertation examines whether community-based organizations can help low-income individuals improve their credit usage and credit scores as part of a strategy to help them build their wealth. Credit histories and scores influence access to affordable loans and other forms of credit as well as employment and housing opportunities, insurance rates, and utility and rental deposits. As a result, credit plays an important role in individuals’ ability to weather financial crises, increase savings, and build wealth. Specifically, I assess the impacts and implementation of a program model that integrates financial education and counseling into employment services for low-income job seekers. The study uses a comparison group design to assess program impacts, comparing the outcomes of program participants to those of a matched group of low- income individuals who were seeking assistance from public employment agencies that did not offer financial or credit counseling.

  • 2009 Yearbook
    U.S. Lawn Mower Racing Association 1812 Glenview Rd., Glenview, Illinois 60025•(847) 729-7363•FAX (847) 729-4208•www.letsmow.com•E-Mail: [email protected] 2OO9 USLMRA President’s Message In the spring of 2008, I posed the following questions as gas prices rose and our nation began to feel the pinch of what we now call the “economic downturn.” Where does lawn mower racing fit into the family budget? Are racers going to travel as far as they once did to compete? Are host venue budgets going to constrict? Lawn mower racing continues to grow and there is a place for it in the family budget. Some racers continue to travel long distances, but there are many new racers staying closer to home. Host venues are still looking for affordable entertainment, although working with much tighter budgets, and turn to lawn mower racing as an affordable event to add to their entertainment roster. Racers are also looking for the most value for their tight budgets, which also has upside potential for our sport. We are still the most affordable motorsport out there, the most participatory and the easiest to get into. More than ever, sponsors are looking for affordable events and properties to support while realizing return on investment. Our two new partners, Anti Monkey Butt Powder and K&N Filters are good examples of that. One year ago, I touted the USLMRA Affiliated Club Program as an excellent system to grow our sport in an affordable, flexible manner. The fact that we are up to 43 Chapters and Clubs is proof that we are on the right track with our Affiliated Club program.
