And to every person who has a passion for the study and application of forensics. And to my four incredible cousins, Diane, Michele, Paula, and Andy. And in memory of Kevin, fondly known as “Muffin Man, K-OS and Kev-Man,” who found great pleasure and security in plastic dinosaurs, colorful balloons, and his loving parents and siblings. ✵ About the Author Eric W.

We set this proposal in a framework of how the inductive innocence paradigm was developed and analyze how the term “causation” is used in legal, scientific and case analysis. We then explore a subject not yet addressed by wrongful conviction scholarship but that may confront an investigator: whether an unsolved crime is the work of a serial criminal and whether a suspect is the serial criminal. We examine a convenience sample of forty-four exonerees convicted of crimes committed by thirty serial criminals. The analysis is aimed at opening up a discussion of the kind of complexity that investigators face in hard-to-solve cases. 1 We thank Sam Gross and the National Registry of Exonerations’ staff for providing case files. * Professor, Department of Criminal Justice, Wayne State University. ** Assistant Professor, Department of Criminal Justice, Wayne State University. 941 941 ZALMAN PRODUCTION (DO NOT DELETE) 12/17/2016 4:35 PM 942 Albany Law Review [Vol. 79.3 I.

Abstract Sentiment analysis has taken on various machine learning ap- proaches in order to optimize accuracy, precision, and recall. However, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) Recurrent Neu- ral Networks (RNNs) account for the context of a sentence by using previous predictions as additional input for future sentence predictions. Our approach focused on developing an LSTM RNN that could perform binary sentiment analysis for positively and negatively labeled sentences. In collaboration with Mariam Salloum, I developed a collection of programs to classify individual sentences as either positive or negative.

  • Piteous Massacre’: Violence, Language, and the Off-Stage in Richard III
    Journal of the British Academy, 8(s3), 91–109 DOI https://doi.org/10.5871/jba/008s3.091 Posted 15 June 2020 ‘Piteous massacre’: violence, language, and the off-stage in Richard III Georgina Lucas Abstract: Shakespeare regularly stages extreme violence. In Titus Andronicus, Chiron and Demetrius are baked in a pie and eaten by their mother. Gloucester’s eyes are plucked out in King Lear. In contradistinction to this graphic excess are moments when violence is relegated off-stage: Macbeth kills King Duncan in private; when Richard III suborns the assassination of his nephews—the notorious ‘Princes in the Tower’—the boys are killed away from the audience. In such instances, the spectator must imagine the scope and formation of the violence described. Focussing on Richard III, this article asks why Shakespeare uses the word ‘massacre’ to express the murder of the two princes. Determining the varied, and competing, meanings of the term in the 16th and 17th centuries, the article uncovers a range of ways an early audience might have interpreted the killings—as mass murder, assassination, and butchery—and demonstrates their thematic connections to child-killing across the cycle of plays that Richard III concludes. Keywords: Shakespeare, massacre, Richard III, off-stage violence, child-killing. Notes on the author: Georgina Lucas is Lecturer in Shakespeare and Renaissance Literature in the School of Arts, English and Languages at Queen’s University, Belfast. Her research focusses upon the representation of mass and sexual violence on the early modern stage, and the performance and reception of Shakespeare during and after acts of atrocity.

If that guy on the top was a real person you would assume a lot of things about him,” he said. Real-life men rarely wear overly styled outfits, David said, but “bits of everything-things he has from the past, things he just got, sporty things” that are comfortable. So we shall see how many will be wearing thigh-high Ugg boots next winter. Lots if Y/Project designer Glenn Martens has his way. Like Baywatch star Pamela Anderson until she realized the boots were made from sheep, the Belgian is a big fan of the Aus- tralian sheepskin boots. “They are so comfortable it is like putting your feet into warm butter,” he told AFP. “So I thought why not put the whole leg in there.” “I’m very sorry for the animals, but we are very comfortable,” said the hip creator, who used fake leather in the rest of his over-sized collection which turned on two-in-one jackets and coats. “You have two coats and two jack- ets in one. It’s like merging two bodies together, a bit like love- making,” he said of their construction. Like Y/Project and a growing number of men’s collections, Japanese label Facetasm went for a co-ed show with male and female models, some of whom even smiled. It was dominated by a joyous oversized thrift shop look of crumpled denim, baseball jackets, Medusa hairdos and lots of lay- ering.

    Homicide Studies: Ten Years After Its Inception Proceedings of the 2007 Homicide Research Working Group Annual Symposium Minneapolis, Minnesota June 7-10 Edited by Katharina Gruenberg Lancaster University And C. Gabrielle Salfati John Jay College of Criminal Justice 1 Acknowledgements 2 The Homicide Research Working Group (HRWG) is an international and interdisciplinary organization of volunteers dedicated to cooperation among researchers and practitioners who are trying to understand and limit lethal violence. The HRWG has the following goals: to forge links between research, epidemiology and practical programs to reduce levels of mortality from violence; to promote improved data quality and the linking of diverse homicide data sources; to foster collaborative, interdisciplinary research on lethal and non-lethal violence; to encourage more efficient sharing of techniques for measuring and analyzing homicide; to create and maintain a communication network among those collecting, maintaining and analyzing homicide data sets; and to generate a stronger working relationship among homicide researchers.
