Co-author Brittany Blakey. The central issue in the Texas case of Cook v. Cimarex Energy Co. : Did Cook grant Cimarex a right of way across Cook’s land to the location of two Cimarex wells. No he didn’t. Reversing the trial court, the court of appeals concluded that two Contracts of Release were ambiguous. Neither party was entitled to summary judgment, so its back to the Ochilltree County courthouse for a large helping of he-said-she-said.

Machine learning could help stop a future pandemic in its tracks by indicating which individuals should be tested for the disease. That is the finding of physicists at the University of Gothenborg, Sweden and CNR-IPCF, Italy, whose neural-network-derived method proved far more effective than standard contact-tracing strategies at containing a simulated outbreak.

In today's industrial landscape, the pursuit of sustainable energy optimization and decarbonization has become paramount. Manufacturing corporations across the U.S. are facing the urgent need to align with decarbonization goals while enhancing efficiency and productivity. Unfortunately, the lack of comprehensive energy data poses a significant challenge for manufacturing managers striving to meet their targets.

A team headed up at Western University in Canada has found three brown dwarfs that are spinning faster than ever seen before – completing a full rotation once per hour. The brown dwarfs were identified by NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope and later studied with ground-based telescopes, such as the Gemini North telescope on the summit of Mauna Kea in Hawaii.

In my last post, I discussed how unauthorized secondary uses of ag data, when collected for a different purpose, are privacy violations. This post looks at another concept from Professor Solove’s Taxonomy of Privacy—how “decisional interference” is a form of privacy violation. “Decisional interference” occurs when someone interferes with another person’s decision making through manipulative techniques, such as misleading content, obscuring relevant information, or mind games.

Privacy as an idea seems simple. We all have an understanding of what privacy is and means. Generally, most people probably consider privacy as the right not to disclose certain information. Blinds on your windows ensure visual privacy from neighbors—the right to not disclose what happens behind the windows to the outside world. However, privacy is a much deeper concept than just the right not to disclose information.

Claimed to be highly realistic and elephant-friendly, a new alternative to ivory has been developed by researchers in Austria. Led by Jürgen Stampfl at the Vienna University of Technology, the team used stereolithography to 3D print a replica material called “Digory”, which they claim closely mimics both the mechanical and optical properties of real ivory.

I am delighted to be included once again by The Canadian Legal Lexpert Directory in its 2021 ranking of Canada’s Leading Environmental Law Practitioners, and to have been “repeatedly recommended” by my peers in Lexpert’s survey. Thank you to all my colleagues who were kind enough to recommended me. The Canadian Legal Lexpert Directory (the Canadian Lexpert Directory ), published since 1997, is based on an extensive peer survey process of leading practitioners across Can

Physics is a versatile subject and the problem-solving skills you learn during a degree can be used in countless other career paths. During the first week of my physics undergraduate course at the University of Nottingham, UK, we were told that to become a good physicist we must use mathematical tools to approach a problem creatively and find a solution through critical thinking.
Speaker: Antoine M. Thompson, Executive Director of the Greater Washington Region Clean Cities Coalition
Diversity, Equity, Justice, and Inclusion (DEJI) policies, programs, and initiatives are critically important as we move forward with public and private sector climate and sustainability goals and plans. Underserved and socially, economically, and racially disadvantaged communities bear the burden of pollution, higher energy costs, limited resources, and limited investments in the clean energy and transportation sectors.
