The story heats up not only as Fletch and Sam are faced with the complexity of a crime that has bioterrorism implications and is further exacerbated by the secrecy of high-level officials but as more dead bodies are found. Conclusions The significance of suffering in the development and diagnosis of psychopathy is underexposed in current diagnosic systems and theories.

Some psychopaths are superficially adapted to their environment and are even popular, but they feel they must carefully hide their true nature because it will not be acceptable to others. But when Sam and her partner, Detective Daren Fletcher arrived at the crime scene, they believe it might've been staged. What moments were peppered throughout the chapters were cliche and corny, almost soap-opera-y, instead of sweet and funny or tense or romantic.

  • Do “Prey Species” Hide Their Pain? Implications for Ethical Care and Use of Laboratory Animals
    Journal of Applied Animal Ethics Research 2 (2020) 216–236 brill.com/jaae Do “Prey Species” Hide Their Pain? Implications for Ethical Care and Use of Laboratory Animals Larry Carbone Independent scholar; 351 Buena Vista Ave #703E, San Francisco, CA 94117, USA [email protected] Abstract Accurate pain evaluation is essential for ethical review of laboratory animal use. Warnings that “prey species hide their pain,” encourage careful accurate pain assess- ment. In this article, I review relevant literature on prey species’ pain manifestation through the lens of the applied ethics of animal welfare oversight. If dogs are the spe- cies whose pain is most reliably diagnosed, I argue that it is not their diet as predator or prey but rather because dogs and humans can develop trusting relationships and because people invest time and effort in canine pain diagnosis. Pain diagnosis for all animals may improve when humans foster a trusting relationship with animals and invest time into multimodal pain evaluations. Where this is not practical, as with large cohorts of laboratory mice, committees must regard with skepticism assurances that animals “appear” pain-free on experiments, requiring thorough literature searches and sophisticated pain assessments during pilot work. Keywords laboratory animal ‒ pain ‒ animal welfare ‒ ethics ‒ animal behavior 1 Introduction As a veterinarian with an interest in laboratory animal pain management, I have read articles and reviewed manuscripts on how to diagnose a mouse in pain. The challenge, some authors warn, is that mice and other “prey species” © LARRY CARBONE, 2020 | doi:10.1163/25889567-bja10001 This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the CC BY 4.0Downloaded license.

  • Mortgages, Housing and Monetary Policy – What Lies Ahead?
    Mortgages, housing and monetary policy – what lies ahead? Speech given by David Miles, External Member of the Monetary Policy Committee, Bank of England To the Northern Housing Consortium, York Racecourse 22 November 2011 I would like to thank Jochen Schanz and Arpad Moritz for research assistance, and others for helpful comments. The views expressed are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of the Bank of England or other members of the Monetary Policy Committee. All speeches are available online at www.bankofengland.co.uk/publications/speeches 1 Introduction Many years ago I wrote a book with the less than memorable title: “Housing, Financial Markets and the Wider Economy”. It would be a lie to say that it is available in all good bookshops. It would be more accurate to say that it might now be found in one or two second-hand book shops – though I do not know where they are1. That book had one line in it that I still rather like. It happens to be the first line of the book and one of the shorter sentences in it. And – unlike most of the rest of the book – it does not have equations or mathematical symbols. It is: “Few people are nomads by choice” The rest of the book could not keep up that degree of succinctness. The short, opening sentence expresses something important about our preferences: most people put great value on having a home that they can reliably call home for many years. This is one reason why the majority of people want to own their home.

Will it be enough to prevent regulatory intervention though, with all the unintended consequences that could result?

  • Philippians IX. Faith, Hope, and Love Philippians 3:12-16
    July 18, 2021 A Letter from Paul – Philippians IX. Faith, Hope, and Love Philippians 3:12-16 Dr. William P. Seel Easley Presbyterian Church Easley, South Carolina Our passage can be seen as a summary of sorts regarding pretty much everything Paul has said in his letter thus far. “Not that I have already obtained this,” he begins – the “this” referring not only what he said last week about gaining Christ and being found in Him1, but also to what he said in chapter two about how we are to have the same mind that was in Christ Jesus, who took the form of a servant and so forth2. “Not that I have already obtained this . but I press on to make it my own” he writes – the “pressing on” referring back to what he told the Philippians in chapter one about their manner of life becoming worthy of the gospel of Christ3, and also back to what he said in chapter two about the necessity of working out our salvation “with fear and trembling”4. “Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own.” But as much summary as Paul is packing into that introductory sentence, it’s what Paul says next which is the meat of this passage for us this morning. Paul explains what he means by “pressing on to make it my own” – or, more specifically, describes what this looks like and how it is accomplished in the life of a disciple of Jesus. And it’s all there in verses 13-14: “Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own.

  • Juba Good Vicki Delany
    READING GUIDE JUBA GOOD VICKI DELANY Reading level: 3.0 Interest level: Adult Themes: crime, mystery, Africa, murder, serial killer, RCMP, United Nations, foreign aid 978-1-4598-0490-6 pb Summary RCMP officer Ray Robertson is nearing the end of his year-long term in South Sudan, where he has been working with the UN to train and advise the new country’s police force. He is looking forward to finishing his term and connecting back up with his wife, Jenny, to enjoy a vacation together in Kenya before heading back to his home in Vancouver. Two weeks before his departure, Robertson stumbles into a string of murders that he ultimately insists on solving before he leaves the country. The victims are all female prostitutes, strangled to death with the killer’s trademark white ribbon and dumped on a residential street. As the book gets underway, Robertson is investigating the fourth such murder, accompanied by his trusted partner, John Deng, a native of the Dinka tribe in Africa. Deng is tight-lipped about his own family; Robertson assumes they were killed during Sudan’s long civil war. Deng and Robertson set out to get to the bottom of the murders in a place where the citizens have seen so much darkness and hatred that it’s difficult to establish a trusting relationship—especially with the police. A moral man by nature, Robertson nevertheless has to bend rules to get his questions answered. He encounters a number of dead ends along the way, but his determination to see at least a little bit of justice done before he leaves for Canada fuels his refusal to give up.

  • What Lies Ahead (1-3-16)
    “A Preview of Coming Attractions”! Mark 13:1-4! I find it hard to believe that we are beginning another year. If you are like me, then you will agree that 2015 seemed to go by in a flash. I know that time doesn't speed up or slow down, but it sure feels like it goes by faster the longer that you live. Couple this with the technology and smart devices that we are constantly using, and time gets away from you before you know it. For many of us, a new year brings excitement and challenge. It is an opportunity to start over, to get around to doing some things that you've been putting off. When January rolls around, none of us know what the year will hold for us by the time that December gets here once again. There is an element of uncertainty about the future, for none of us truly knows what lies ahead.! In general, Americans are very interested when it comes to knowing the future. I read where Americans spend nearly a billion dollars annually on consulting psychics, horoscopes, and palm readers. Man has always thought he can predict the future, and has tried his best. In 1870, there was a bishop who came to an Indiana college campus for a denominational conference. During his visit, the bishop heard the president of the college say something that shocked him. “We live in an age of wonders,” said the head of the college. “I believe the day is not far off when men will fly in the skies like birds.” The bishop said, “Sir, you are speaking blasphemy! The Bible tells us that the gift of flight is reserved strictly for the angels.” The bishop’s name was Milton Wright who just so happened to have two sons by the name of Orville and Wilbur.

  • What Lies Ahead for Israelis and Palestinians?
    What lies ahead for Israelis and Palestinians? Reflections on the Camp David 2000 Summit and the 2020 ‘Deal of the Century.’ By Gilead Sher and Ze'ev Portner/ July 9, 2020 In January 2001, just three days before he was about to leave office, former president Bill Clinton received a farewell phone call from the then chairman of the PLO, Yasser Arafat. Arafat flattered “you are a great man.” Clinton did not mince his words, “The hell I am. I am a colossal failure, and you made me one.” Clinton was referring to the Camp David peace talks of July 2000 held under his administration’s auspices, and the subsequent Clinton Parameters in which he expended so much effort, energy, and time. King Abdullah II of Jordan has written that “Prime Minister Ehud Barak showed great courage” at Camp David in terms of the steps he was prepared to take to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and put a finality to the respective claims. The problem was that this was never reciprocated on the Palestinian side; the only person who could take things forward, Arafat, failed to cross the Rubicon from leading a national movement to statesmanship. Arafat undermined his own negotiators’ positions at Camp David, with his consistent no to any of the American proposals put to him – not even willing to discuss them as a basis for negotiations. As Clinton told him at the time, Arafat was making an error on the scale of 1947 when the Palestinians had rejected the partition plan and the creation of an Arab state next to a Jewish one.
