Y What's Wrong with You: Seven Logical Steps to Understanding Emotional Illusions, Benjamin Fry 2004, 0976121409, 9780976121404. You are probably familiar with audiences? responses to very convincing magic tricks. People respond with incredulity to great illusions. They sit there thinking ?how did he do that?? In the absence of an answer, they begin to take seriously the idea that something unexplained is going on. And this is where the fear sets in.You are the same. You observe your own emotions at times with similar incredulity. But this time the discomfort and the fear is more personal, and unlike the magician?s audience, you can?t run away.Now imagine that you were told exactly how the magician performs his illusion, then watched it again. You wouldn?t feel a moment?s discomfort. The same resolution can be offered for your own internal mysteries, but the question here to ask is not, ?how did he do that?? but instead, ?what?s wrong with me??What?s Wrong With You? answers that question and by the time you finish it, you too will be able to observe your own emotional illusions with the peace of mind of a knowledgeable spectator.It outlines seven logical steps which will teach your conscious mind an awareness of your own emotional condition. It includes extensive case studies from the author's life and answers from his on how to apply the techniques to others. The Sparrow Book of Record-breakers, Pamela Cleaver 1981, 0099260107, 9780099260103. God's Spirit: For Those Who Would Be Glad, George Birdie Mathes 2012, 0988225026, 9780988225022. God's Spirit: For Those Who Would be Glad This is the fifth book in a series of books written by George- Birdie- Mathes. There are 50 plus poems/stories in this book that cover a wide variety of life experiences. Some of the tales are very sad, especially the two written about my beloved brother-in-law Arthur "Skip" Kelley who fought his battle with amyloidosis so bravely for four years before he passed. There will always be love poems to my bride of 54 years, Joan Ballou Mathes. The book itself is dedicated to my fantastic, beloved daughter Janna, who is such a bright, shining light in our lives, as she decorates the front of our house for all of the seasonal festivities; pumpkin motifs for the kids who come to the house for their treats and a bazillion lights strung up on our doorway and all of our hedges. She IS the spirit of Christmas for us. There is even a story about the stray animals I feed at night and all the fun I have giving them a little "help out" in a world that has all but wiped out their habitat. There are also poems about friends who have had physical and mental problems in their lives that, I felt, would take comfort in a few loving words. Yes, the stories within were written "For those who would be Glad." I feel that these poems and stories could, possibly, be a comfort to someone you know and that you yourself might take some comfort from them and BE GLAD, as you sense God's Spirit in these little poems and stories.

Now with more than three million copies sold, Oscar-winning filmmaker and political activist Michael Moore's bestseller Stupid White Men tells you everything you need to know about how the great and the good screw us over. It reveals - among other things - how 'President' Bush stole an election aided only by his brother, cousin and dad's cronies, electoral fraud and tame judges; how the rich stay rich while forcing the rest of us to live in economic fear; and how politicians have whored themselves to big business. Whether he's calling for United Nations action to overthrow the Bush Family Junta, calling on African-Americans to place whites-only signs over the entrances of unfriendly businesses, or praying that Jesse Helms will get kissed by a man, Stupid White Men is Michael Moore's Manifesto on Malfeasance and Mediocrity. A hilarious must-read for anyone who wants to know what the con is and how 'they' get away with it, Stupid White Men is only available uncensored because public pressure forced the original publishers to publish a book they felt was too hot to handle.

  • Understanding and Overcoming the Entrapment Defense in Undercover Operations
    1 Understanding and Overcoming the Entrapment Defense in Undercover Operations Understanding and Overcoming the Entrapment Defense in Undercover Operations Sgt. Danny Baker Fort Smith Police Department Street Crimes Unit 2 Understanding and Overcoming the Entrapment Defense in Undercover Operations Introduction: Perhaps one of the most effective, yet often misunderstood investigatory tools available to law enforcement agencies around the world is that of the undercover agent. In all other aspects of modern policing, from traffic enforcement to homicide investigation, policing technique relies heavily upon the recognition and identification of an agent as an officer of the law. Though coming under question in recent years, it has long been professed that highly visible police have a deterrent effect on crime simply by their presence. Simply stated, the belief is that a criminal intent on breaking the law will likely refrain from doing so should he or she encounter, or have a high likelihood of encountering, a uniformed police officer just moments prior to the intended crime. Such presence certainly has its benefits in a civilized society. If to no other end, the calming and peace of mind that highly visible and accessible officers provide the citizenry is invaluable. The real dilemma arises when attempting to justify and fund this police presence that crime ridden neighborhoods and communities continually demand. Particularly when the crime suppression benefits of such tactics are questionable and impossible to measure. After all, how do you quantify the number of crimes that were never committed and, if you could, how do you correlate that to simple police presence? In polar opposition to the highly visible, readily accessible, uniformed officer, we find the undercover officer.

"The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat," pleaded Eve in response to an accusing Lord God.' Early English cases report instances of citizens being lured into crime so they might be apprehended. 2 Nineteenth century American cases similarly record examples of persons tempted to illegality for the purpose of subjecting them to criminal sanctions.

Without these documents, the best investigative reporting in the world could not have produced a book, and the secrets of CIA mind-control work would have remained buried forever, as the men who knew them had always intended. From the documentary base, I was able to expand my knowledge through interviews and readings in the behavioral sciences. Neverthe- less, the final result is not the whole story of the CIA's attack on the mind. Only a few insiders could have written that, and they choose to remain silent. I have done the best I can to make the book as accurate as possible, but I have been hampered by the refusal of most of the principal characters to be interviewed and by the CIA's destruction in 1973 of many of the key docu- ments.

  • Social Entrapment Evidence: Understanding Its Role in Self-Defence Cases Involving Intimate Partner Violence
    326 UNSW Law Journal Volume 44(1) SOCIAL ENTRAPMENT EVIDENCE: UNDERSTANDING ITS ROLE IN SELF-DEFENCE CASES INVOLVING INTIMATE PARTNER VIOLENCE HEATHER DOUGLAS,* STELLA TARRANT** AND JULIA TOLMIE*** This article considers what evidence juries need to help them apply the defence of self-defence where a woman claims she has killed an abusive partner to save her own life. Drawing on recent research and cases we argue that expert evidence admitted in these types of cases generally fails to provide evidence about the nature of abuse, the limitations in the systemic safety responses and the structural inequality that abused women routinely face. Evidence of the reality of the woman’s safety options, including access to, and the realistic support offered by, services such as police, housing, childcare, safety planning and financial support should be presented. In essence, juries need evidence about what has been called social entrapment so they can understand how women’s safety options are deeply intertwined with their degree of danger and therefore with the question of whether their response (of killing their abuser) was necessary based on reasonable grounds. We consider the types of evidence that may be important in helping juries understand the concept and particular circumstances of social entrapment, including the role of experts in this context. I INTRODUCTION: USING A SOCIAL ENTRAPMENT PARADIGM TO SUPPORT SELF-DEFENCE It has been suggested that the two main paradigms used by decision-makers1 to understand facts involving intimate partner violence (‘IPV’) in the criminal justice context are a ‘bad relationship with incidents of violence’ paradigm and the ‘battered woman syndrome’.2 Both understand IPV in terms of the incidents of * Professor, Melbourne Law School, The University of Melbourne.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. Civil Orders for Protection: Freedom or Entrapment? * Nina W. Tarr INTRODUCTION Everyone knows what is best. Everyone knows how to fix her. Everyone has advice. Everyone knows how to punish her. We call her “a battered woman” as if this says it all, although she dislikes the tag. We treat her like a “bad girl” who will not do what any of us says. Women who are hurt by loved ones, family members, intimate acquaintances, and household members are multidimensional and their experiences are all over the map. Civil Orders for Protection (Orders for Protection)1 are the most readily available legal means of accessing the protection of the state to separate the woman from her batterer. Once labeled a “battered woman,” however, society assumes that a woman automatically fits into the helpless construct that is associated with the “battered woman syndrome.” If she is not seriously hurt or not helpless enough, then society finds that she is not a battered woman and should not be allowed to take advantage of the beneficence to which “deserving” helpless women are entitled; that is, she does not adequately portray society’s idea of the damsel in distress.
