Book excerpt: "It seems to me I've either built this line 300 miles too long ... or 300 years to soon."The Carson and Colorado Railroad, dubbed the "Slim Princess" due to the mere 36" span of its rails, was conceived and funded by Darius O. Mills, a New York financier with a penchant for railroads. Construction of this narrow-gauge line began at Mound House, Nevada, on May 31, 1880, and ended at Keeler, California, on August 1, 1883. Faced with sweltering heat during an inspection tour that same month, Mills lost his enthusiasm for his project. The C & C ran for 77 years, connecting mining camps and small towns on the eastern side of Owens Valley in Inyo County, on into Mono County, and across the California state line into Nevada. Although some of the stops along the route through Owens Valley are still populated today, others are names known only to history enthusiasts. At one time or another during its 77 years of operations-whether under the original name, Carson & Colorado, or the Southern Pacific in later years-the following California communities were stations along the line: Keeler, the southernmost station-with a population today of about 70 people-Tramway, Owenyo, Manzanar-site of a Japanese relocation camp during WW II-Kearsarge, Aberdeen (formerly Tibbets), Monola (formerly Alvord), Zurich, Bigelow, Laws, Lone Pine, Cartago, Olancha, Loco, Little Lake, Brown, Inyokern, Code, Searles, Rand, Garlock, Ceneda, Cantil, Neuralia, Chaffee, Mojave, Piute, Hammill, and Benton. Additionally, the railroad serviced Queen, Summit, Basalt, Candelaria, Belleville, Rhodes, Sodaville, Mina, Luning, Kincade, Hawthorne, Thorne, Walker, Gillis, Schurz, Rio Vista, Wabuska, Churchill, Dayton, and Mound House in Nevada. Using original photos taken from the late 1940s through today, From Keeler to Laws: A Historic Journey in Pictures and Words, looks at the portion of the line that ran through the Owens Valley. It visits the southern terminus, Keeler, then progresses north-with a side trip to Cerro Gordo, one the richest mine sites in the area-then through Owenyo, Kearsarge, Zurich, and finally ending at the northern terminus, Laws. Also included are numerous original articles and newspaper clippings from the 1950s that give the reader a glimpse into a world most have forgotten. This book is a must for the libraries of railroad enthusiasts and armchair historians alike.

Now in its 11th edition, Criminal Law and Its Processes: Cases and Materials covers all the doctrinal material and key criminal justice policy questions an instructor may want to explore for a either a one-semester or year-long course in criminal law. From a preeminent authorship team, Criminal Law and its Processes: Cases and Materials, Eleventh Edition, continues in the tradition of its best-selling predecessors by providing students not only with a cohesive policy framework through which they can understand and examine the use of criminal laws as a means for social control, but also analytic tools to understand and apply important criminal law doctrines. Criminal Law and its Processes: Cases and Materials focuses on having students develop a nuanced understanding of the underlying principles, rules, and policy rationales that inform all criminal laws. A cases-and-notes pedagogy along with scholarly excerpts, questions, and notes, provides students with a rich foundation for not only the academic examination of criminal laws but also the application of the law to real-world scenarios.

The material also contains more depth for discussion of the increasingly important question of what “consent” means, including several of the most recent cases and the new Model Penal Code provisions on rape approved by the ALI membership in June 2021. In-depth treatment of racial profiling and police use of excessive force, and a broader discussion of structural pressures and biases in the context of exploring the expansion of excuses Broader exploration of what society chooses to criminalize and prioritize for enforcement Updated notes to incorporate contemporary cases and recent news touching on criminal law Inclusion of additional preeminent cases in the field of criminal law, including: Kahler v. Kansas as a principal case in the material on the insanity defense Two new cases on the actus reus of conspiracy – the first in a drug distribution context and the second addressing Apple’s strategy for marketing ebooks on its iPad Professors and students will benefit from: Cohesive Intellectual Framework Grounds student understanding of criminal law as an instrument of social control?and provides analytical tools to interpret and understand doctrine Holistic approach encourages students to develop an understanding of principles and rules applicable to all crimes Cases-and-notes pedagogy Includes excerpted materials, questions, and problems useful for Socratic instruction and policy discussions Challenging Problems ?

Download or read book Media Entertainment Law 2 e written by Ursula Smartt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-21 with total page 924 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Media and Entertainment Law presents a contemporary analysis of the law relating to the media and entertainment industry both in terms of its practical application and its theoretical framework. It provides a clear, current and comprehensive account of this exciting subject. Fully updated and revised, this second edition is one of the first texts to contain a full analysis of the Leveson Inquiry and the implications for our press and media that are arising from it. The new edition contains; a new chapter analysing the Defamation Act 2013; the Digital Economy Act 2010 which aimed to toughen up against copyright infringement online and has been subject to parliamentary review since coming into power; and the liability of internet service providers, including recent cases such as Tamiz vs Google 2012, which goes some way to define the extent to which an ISP may or may not be found liable for their bloggers content. With integrated coverage of Scots and Northern Irish law, Media and Entertainment Law also highlights comparisons with similar overseas jurisdictions, such as with the liability of ISPs where there are differences in both US and European law, in order to help students demonstrate an awareness of media laws, which may then influence UK legislation. Looking at key aspects such as TV and radio broadcasting, the print press, the music industry, online news and entertainment and social networking sites, this text provides detailed coverage of the key principles, cases and legislation as well as a critical analysis of regulatory bodies such as OFCOM and the new regulator for the UK's newspapers and magazines (and online editions), the Independent Press Standards Organisation (Ipso). The text also provides the most comprehensive and up to date coverage of the law relating to Intellectual Property law for the entertainment industry with recent changes in EU law relating to performers' rights.
