Regardless of the outcome of the fighting which commenced upon the Iraqi army's march to Basra on March 24, and which proved disastrous for Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, we have been repeatedly "informed" of highly questionable assumptions. Most prominent amongst them is that the "firebrand," "radical" Muqtada alSadr - leader of the millions-strong Shi'a Sadr Movement - led a group of "renegades," "thugs" and "criminals" to terrorize the strategically important city. Naturally al-Maliki is portrayed as the exact opposite of al-Sadr. When the former descended into Basra with his 40,000-strong U.S .-trained and equipped legions, we were circuitously told that the long-awaited move was cause for celebration. The media also suggested we had no reason to doubt al-Maliki's intentions when h...

Auburn's City Council is close to approving a proposal allowing stand-alone slaughterhouses in agricultural/resource protection zones. That would impact 50 percent of Auburn.
Auburn zoning laws prohibit spot zoning. It is detrimental to the city. Allowing one exception opens doors to other spot zone requests. Changing the entire AG/RP district will circuitously accomplish spot zoning for Craig Linke and his slaughterhouse proposal for Trapp Road. Auburn would have little basis for refusal when approached by others with similar zoning requests.

In the months just before he died, Stevie Ray Vaughan ascended to a place in the pantheon of rock guitarists attained only by the truly gifted. His playing, and his connection to his fans as he played, reached a plane best described as other-worldly. During his concerts, Vaughan transported himself and his fans to a whole other realm of existence that was part spiritual, part physical. The energy flow from the stage to the fans standing in front buzzed circuitously unbroken.
Something similar happened Thursday night at the Opera House at Boothbay Harbor, when Dickey Betts and Great Southern played before a crowd of about 350 wildly enthusiastic and deeply mesmerized fans.

In writing philosophy similarly, Levinas not only opens his thought to future readers but indicates that his thought stems from a moment not fully his own, an untotalizable moment where he did not know exactly what to expect. [...] although creative moments in art or philosophy may seem self-absorbed they can be taken to be ethical in Levinas's sense: the writer abandons past thoughts and habits, and opens herself to the unknown.
...The themes are explored circuitously, weaving in and out of the text, and Levinas often...

In United States v. O'Hagan, the Supreme Court established that there are two complementary theories of insider trading liability, each with a fiduciary principle at its core. Under the "classical" theory, liability is premised on a fiduciary's deceptive silence about material nonpublic information in a securities transaction with corporate shareholders. Under the "misappropriation " theory, liability is premised on a fiduciary's deception of the source of the material nonpublic information used in the securities transaction.
This Article analyzes the law of insider trading, with a focus on developments since O'Hagan. Based on a comprehensive review of lower-court decisions, settled enforcement proceedings, and rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, it argues that...
