The Department of Transportation's (DOT) Federal Motor Carrier Administration (FMCSA) intends to establish a new Federal Motor Carrier system of records titled ``DOT/FMCSA 009--National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners'' (National Registry), under the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a).

Medical Examiners (MEs) will be expected to understand how the FMCSR standards relate to the mental and physical demands of operating a commercial motor vehicle (CMV). MEs will be required to successfully complete training and pass a certificati...

In civil lawsuits against the Stanley Medical Research Institute, 12 Maine families allege that the brains of their deceased relatives were taken without their informed consent.

This paper uses the examples of three nineteenth-century cities-London, Philadelphia, and New York-to explore both what is permanent about the problem of water provision (that consumers want it clean, accessible, and free) and what is mediated by the forces of government policy and economic constraints. In some cases, municipal authorities first claimed control over water supplies before figuring out how to pay for their works. In others, they calculated that such arrangements were both too expensive and too risky to bear alone. Both approaches were complicated by the high costs of providing water to urban areas and by urban dwellers' belief that water should flow from their taps without charge. The result was, and remains, a market in which price is largely dictated by political demand...
