  • Past Life Regression
    Past Life Regression Past life regression is a technique that uses hypnosis to recover the memories of past lives or incarnations. Past-life regression is typically undertaken either in pursuit of a spiritual experience, or in a psychotherapeutic setting. Most advocates loosely adhere to beliefs about reincarnation, though religious traditions that incorporate reincarnation generally do not include the idea of repressed memories of past lives. The technique used during past-life regression involves the subject answering a series of questions while hypnotized to reveal identity and events of their past lives. The use of hypnosis and suggestive questions can tend to help the subject to recall his past memories. The source of the memories is more likely that of combine experiences, knowledge, imagination and suggestion or guidance from the hypnotist or regression therapist. Once created, those memories are indistinguishable from memories based on events that occurred during the subject's life. Experiments with subjects undergoing past-life regression indicate that a belief in reincarnation and suggestions by the hypnotist are the two most important factors regarding the contents of memories reported. In the 2nd century BC, Sage Patanjali, in his Yoga Sutras, discussed the idea of the soul becoming burdened with an accumulation of impressions as part of the karma from previous lives. Patanjali called the process of past-life regression “prati- prasav”or "reverse birthing" and saw it as addressing current problems through memories of past lives. Past life regression can be found in Jainism. The seven truths of Jainism deal with the soul and its attachment to karma and Moksha.

EMPIRICAL INQUIRY TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AFTER THE LAWYERING PROCESS RICHARD K. NEUMANN, JR. & STEFAN H. KRIEGER* One of the many ways in which The Lawyering Process was a pioneering book was its extensive reliance on empirical research about lawyers, lawyering, and activities analogous to some or another aspect of lawyering. To what extent has the clinical field accepted Gary Bellow and Bea Moulton's invitation to explore empirical stud- ies generated outside legal education and perhaps engage in empirical work ourselves to understand lawyering more deeply? Although some clinicians have done good empirical work, our field as a whole has not really accepted Gary and Bea's invitation. This article ex- plains empirical ways of thinking and working; discusses some of the mistakes law scholars (not only clinicians) make when dealing with empirical work; explores some of the reasons why empiricism has encountered difficulty in law schools; and suggests that empiricism might in some ways improve our teaching in clinics.

  • The Early Seventeenth-Century Origin of the Macbeth Superstition The
    The early seventeenth-century origin of the Macbeth superstition The theatrical superstition regarding Shakespeare's Macbeth--that naming it or alluding to it brings bad lack--is well documented in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, although critical editions of the play seldom refer to it. Popular belief that the superstition began in the seventeenth century has been sustained by repetition of a story about the death of an actor called Hal Berridge while playing Lady Macbeth on 7 August 1606. This story is rife on World Wide Web sites about the play and appeared in a book whose author should know better (Epstein 1993, 428). No actor named Hal Berridge is recorded in the lists of theatrical personnel produced by E. K. Chambers, Edwin Nungezer, G. E. Bentley, or David J. Kathman (Chambers 1923, 295-350; Nungezer 1929; Bentley 1941, 343-628; Kathman 2001a), although Kathman found that A boy named Henry Berredge was christened on 28 July 1593 in Bitchfield, Lincolnshire, the son of George Berredge. This would make him 13 years old in 1606, just about the right age to play a female role on the London stage at the time. (Kathman 2001b) John Aubrey is sometimes given as the source of the Hal Berridge story, but the name cannot be found in the index to any Aubrey work. The only book devoted to the topic of the supposed theatrical curse on the play Macbeth makes no attempt to substantiate its assertions (Huggett 1981). Without evidence that the boy from Bitchfield became a player, let alone that he died playing Lady Macbeth, we might be tempted to assign the origin of the superstition about Macbeth to the nineteenth-century theatre industry, but in fact there is a hitherto unnoticed example of it from the seventeenth century.

The Grand Slam Tennis Program allows you to see how recent grand slam tennis champions would fair against champions from the past. You can choose from more than 90 former men's grand slam champions and more than 80 former Women's Champions. In addition, you can choose to play the tennis match at the Australian Open, U.S. Open, Wimbledon, or French Open. International tennis matches can also be played, with the option of choosing from many countries around the world. The program is perfect for simulating individual match ups or holding an entire tournament. This is not video graphic game. It is a statistical game based on each former tennis player’s historical success in playing major grand slam singles events. While some players have a higher probability of success, their performance in any particular tournament is still subject to the laws of random probability. For example, a player who has had major success in the French Open is likely to do well in the French Open, but could still lose to a player who has had less historical success in the French Open.
