This paper argues that the focus of conservation today should not be on pristine wilderness alone, but on the conservation of ecosystem services and their global distribution. Such services include air and water purification, flood and drought mitigation, and waste detoxification and decomposition. The destruction or impairment of ecosystems by human activity eliminates, or at least makes scarce, the ecosystem services it provides us. Measuring the scarcity value of ecosystem services is challenging to economists because these services are independent of the market system. Concepts like substitution is difficult to apply to ecosystem services because human technology is typically not as efficient as a substitute and our understanding of the intricacies of ecosystems is lacking. To measure ecosystem scarcity value, the paper focuses on the shifting states of lakes between oligotrophic and eutrophic based on phosphorus levels. The process of sudden shifts from oligotrophic steady state (clear water) to eutrophic steady state (turbid water) is based on thresholds of phosphorus level. When a lake is in either state, it is resilient to change back to the other state. For example, it frequently takes a greater reduction in phosphorus level to return a lake to a oligotrophic state than it originally had before it shifted because each state resists change. This paper attempts to give a numerical value to the scarcity value of a lake's ability to reduce phosphorus in the water column (performed by submerged vegetation in a oligotrophic lake) as the level of phosphorus deposition increases and damages the lake's productivity to provide this, among many other, ecosystem services. To determine this scarcity value, the probability that this ecosystem service (phosphorus reduction) will continue to be provided to society. In the example given by this paper, the probability that this ecosystem service will be provided above a minimum acceptable level is 0.8665. Therefore, the scarcity value, or the probability that this service will NOT be provided, is 1 0.8665 = 0.1335.

One type of administrative action that can be reviewed by a Panel under the WTO standard of review is the imposition of anti dumping duties. However, some scholars found that it is not clear how the standard of review as stipulated in the WTO Anti Dumping Agreement should be applied. This essay will focus on the application of standard of review as stipulated in Article 17.6 of the AD Agreement by the WTO panels and the Appellate Body. It is argued that the ambiguity of Article 17.6 has resulted in less deference towards national authorities’ anti dumping decision. Consequently, the panels and Appellate Body decision also stands less in favour of the injured domestic producers’ interest to obtain relief.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS -A total of 50 adult patients with type 2 diabetes and peripheral neuropathic pain of [greater than]6 months duration involving the lower extremities were randomly assigned to receive active PENS (needles with electrical stimulation at an alternating frequency of 15 and 30 Hz) and sham (needles only) treatments for 3 weeks. Each series of treatments was administered for 30 min three times a week according to a standardized protocol. After a 1-week washout period, all patients were subsequently switched to the other modality A 10-cm visual analog scale (VAS) was used to assess pain, physical activity and quality of sleep before each session. The changes in VAS scores and daily requirements for oral analgesic medication were determined during each 3-week treatment period. Patients completed the MOS 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and the Profile of Mood States (POMS) before and after completion of each treatment modality At the end of the crossover study a patient preference questionnaire was used to compare the effectiveness of the two modalities.
