This bouquet of essays contains four chapters.In the first chapter I present a brief summary of the literature of misspecified models. I discuss what various estimators are actually estimating when the model is misspecified. Further I discuss corrections to standard errors and when they are useful. I briefly cover hypothesis testing in the presence of misspecified models. I cover both frequentist and Bayesian approached. I show that a misspecified model can indeed be useful and discuss some misconceptions with misspecified models.The second chapter investigates the impact of misspecification in discrete choice models. I derive necessary and sufficient conditions for consistency of the maximum likelihood estimator from the misspecified model. A corollary is that the misspecified estimator is consistent for the correct sign, under certain conditions. It also follows that Huber-White standard errors can be used to obtain asymptotically conservative type one errors when testing the nullity of the coefficient.The third chapter builds a Bayesian model for multiple-output quantiles using a commonly accepted definition for the quantile. The prior can be elicited as the ex-ante knowledge of Tukey depth, the first prior of its kind. I apply the model to the Tennessee Project STAR experiment and find there is a joint increase in all quantile subpopulations for reading and mathematics scores given a decrease in the number of students per teacher. This result is consistent with, and much stronger than, the results from previous studies.The four chapter I investigate if United States Supreme Court Justices recuse themselves strategically. I create a new structural model of recusals. Using this model I find causal evidence that justices recuse themselves strategically. I then calibrate and simulate the model to find the frequency of cases where at least one justice has a conflict of interest but does not recuse. I find at most 47% of cases have at least one justice with a conflict of interest that did not recuse.It was difficult to come up with an overarching theme for this bouquet of essays---hence the title. The closest theme would be ''model misspecification.'' The first chapter provides an overview of misspecified models, the second chapter investigates a misspecified discrete choice models and the third chapter purposefully uses a misspecified model to get an interesting estimator. However, the closest the fourth chapter gets to ''model misspecification'' is the use of the Kullback-Leibler distance in a simulation. The Kullback-Leibler distance is often used in the misspecified literature but there is nothing about the distance that makes it inherently related to misspecified models.

Abstract: Antimicrobial drugs are used in food animal production for several purposes: to treat a disease outbreak, to prevent disease, and to enhance feed efficiency and animal growth. While the technical benefits of antimicrobial use in animal production are well documented, there is a major lack of information on the economic impact on farmers'' incomes. This report reviews evidence on the economic benefits and costs of antimicrobials for the major animal producing species across several OECD countries as well as in Brazil and China. The findings indicate that the economic benefits are modest in modern farming systems where good production facilities, biosecurity measures, and management practices are in place. In large food animal producing countries such as Brazil, the use of antimicrobials is an important input to enhance the competitiveness of the industry. In China, the largest producer and user of antibiotics in animal production, antibiotics are often used as a substitute for less sanitary animal production facilities and the lack of appropriate biosecurity on the farm. This report concludes with several key policy options and practices, in particular those that induce farmers to place a greater emphasis on the economic benefits and costs of antimicrobials and alternative interventions in production in order to stem the rise in antimicrobial resistance

Research on understudied languages and cross-linguistic variation from a formal semantic perspective is in its relative youth, but has been attracting the attention of more and more linguists over the past 15 years or so. This dissertation contributes to this line of work by investigating comparative constructions in Luganda and Washo. These languages make use of comparative constructions that are typologically common (Stassen 1985) but which have received little attention in formal linguistics. I provide a formal semantic analysis of these constructions, and situate the results within a broader picture of the nature of cross-linguistic variation in the meaning component of grammar.

This paper looks at some of these travails as well as the common tools used to approach a volatile priced commodity, diesel fuel. It focuses on the impacts of hedging for companies that are directly impacted through the consumption of diesel fuel in addition to companies that are indirectly impacted because they outsource their transportation. It examines the impact of a fuel surcharge and how it distributes risk throughout the supply chain. To complement the research, analysis was conducted in the form of a survey to benchmark the industry with respect to current practices of hedging and fuel surcharges, a sensitivity test of a fuel surcharge matrix to find its appropriate usage, and a simulation to provide guidance as to the appropriate strategy for hedging. Lessons learned from the survey flowed into the sensitivity testing and simulation. These three segments of analysis highlighted the problem of volatility, increasing cost, and inability to pass on the cost, proving the true pain of fuel in the market. Ultimately, the paper answers: How to utilize hedging and a fuel surcharge program to stabilize the cost of fuel? The survey showed the wide adoption of fuel surcharges, confirming the academic research. The sensitivity test proved the need to keep the escalator variable in line with a carrier''s actual fuel efficiency and standardize for all carriers. The simulation recommended longer term derivatives. Putting this together, the fuel surcharge establishes stability for the carrier, at the risk of the shipper. The shipper must maintain that stability through its maintenance of the escalator in the fuel surcharge matrix. Additionally, the shipper should hedge fuel via long term derivatives to establish personal fuel cost stability, creating a competitive advantage and enabling the shipper to compete more effectively.
