Hannah feels him stir. Holding an ice pack to her swollen face, and stuck in an elevator between the second and third floor of a hospital is not how she envisioned running into The Ex. She starts analyzing the situation: Is she still in love with him? Is he still in love with her? They start kissing, then petting, then heavy petting, until she can feel his growing hardness against the inside of her thigh... The Spring Season in this sexy series is a continuation of Hannah''s fall from perfect twenty-something grace. Hannah''s run-in with The Ex is more about icing her nose than melting her heart or giving him a second chance. She seems to be making all the wrong decisions about all the right men; rejecting the doctor who makes her vagina quiver for Mr. Smyth who turns out to be the tall, dark, sophisticated older man she thought he was...with just one problem. The unexpected twists in this humorous romance would drive any woman to the opposite side of nice girl, which is exactly what happens to Hannah. But a bad girl can have some fun along the way.

Written as a work of fiction, the hardships of fictitious Bible characters, along with the possible scenarios of some known Bible characters, show that even the most faithful are met with trials, but none of them are new. Someone, somewhere has done it and come out stronger on the other side. With a unique twist, the book leaps from the first century to a modern character journaling of her difficulties with a marriage on the rocks. Sharing powerful stories helps others know that they are not alone and there is no shame in voicing doubts or in seeking help. Most importantly, we see how God is at work in all of it. There is nothing we can do to diminish his love for us - even now.

Proximity evoked peril. Density brought danger, if not death. As the pandemic gripped the globe, the hallmarks of urban living -- public transportation, high-rises with shared amenities, crowded shopping centers and high-use infrastructure -- flipped from pro to con. It wasn''t long before news stories speculated about the looming death of the city. But -- just as they have after past epidemics, economic crises and natural disasters -- cities will survive.

The processing of human speech requires the integration of brief auditory stimuli that enter the central nervous system in rapid succession. This ability has been termed rapid auditory processing (RAP). RAP skills are believed to underlie successful language acquisition, and deficits in RAP have been consistently observed in individuals with developmental language impairments (LI). These disorders and the role of RAP in language development have been the focus of much research over the past several decades. However, many questions remain regarding the etiology and remediation of developmental LIs, as well as the normal maturational mechanisms involved in language acquisition, including the role of attention in the modification of neural sound representations. The series of experiments described here investigate the relations among RAP, attention, and language ability in several populations: normal adults, children diagnosed with an LI, and children with typical language development (TLD) using the mismatch negativity response (MMN), a component of the auditory ERP waveform that reflects an automatic auditory change detection process. The impact of an auditory discrimination training program (Fast ForWord-Language?) was also investigated. Results show that in TLD children, developmental MMN components (early and late MMN) are modulated by rate and attention in a manner similar to adults. Attention enhances auditory discrimination in TLD children, increasing auditory processing to a level that is similar to adults. The MMN components in LI children differ from TLD children, particularly in the latency of the responses, consistent with the idea of a RAP deficit underlying developmental LI. In the LI children who completed FFWD, immediate and significant gains in oral language and auditory temporal processing abilities, as well as changes in MMN responses were observed. Further, significant associations are found between behavioral and MMN measures, with the most robust and persistent relations found between behavior and MMN components elicited by paired complex tones presented at a rate in the time range that is essential for accurate speech processing (70 ms). Together, these findings facilitate a better understanding of the role of RAP in language processing, specifically with regard to maturation, attentional mechanisms, and neural plasticity.

This article summarizes data from provincial and territorial adult criminal courts across Canada that provided data to the Integrated Criminal Court Survey for the 2008/2009 fiscal year. Information is presented on the characteristics of accused persons and their court cases as well as criminal court case outcomes (i.e., decisions and sentencing details). Additionally, a section on case processing presents some characteristics of lengthier criminal court cases.

"An author who employs the same character in a number of novels has the tantalizing opportunity to round out and develop that character over time and in a number of situations. In this paper I will examine how two imitators of the Sayers method, Ngio Marsh and Margery Allingham, dealt with the problems and used the opportunities inherent in the detective story form." Student paper.

My original contribution to knowledge is the assessment of two ballistics analysis systems using the same bullets and cartridge cases to assess interoperability potential. The results are discussed in the context of policing issues representing a multidisciplinary approach to combating gun crime. Microscopic comparison of bullets and cartridge cases allows inferences to be made that objects bear marks from the same weapon. Parts of this process have been automated. Digital images of objects are stored in a database and correlations undertaken to find potential matches. An expert will decide on the most probable match based upon a range of potential candidates. All evidence should be utilised to the fullest extent, including data from ballistics systems. The success rate of the most widely used system has been quoted at between 50% and 95% suggesting that links to other crimes remain undiscovered. There are different ballistics systems available but research has only been conducted on one. There is no interoperability between systems. Data cannot be shared between different systems. An essential pre-requisite to any work on interoperability, is an understanding of the different systems and the data produced. The research aims were to design a methodology to enable the assessment of systems and to produce ammunition that can be used repeatedly as required. The aim was to conduct an experiment with two of the currently available systems. The results show variance between systems and their accuracy needs improvement. An error rate has been defined and applied to each system. The results suggest that complete interoperability of systems will only be possible with the full cooperation of the manufacturers. A limited form of interoperability focussing on data sharing may be possible. The results have implications for experts using the systems and suggest that a matching standard should be developed to make forensic ballistics analysis an objective discipline.

The Slow Beginning of a Winding Tale" begins Jennifer Thomas-Mitchell''s much-anticipated Quincy York Trilogy.When Quincy, the ten-year-old child of a mentally ill widow, is falsely demonized by his stepfather as a compound of sin, his "monster" uncle sends him off on an unexpected journey. As Quincy wanders, he meets a diverse group of acquaintances and lands himself at the hub of numerous conjoined mysteries.Thomas-Mitchell invokes a great deal of candor and a twist of folklore into an inspiring work of art.
