    Hi Honey-bun – Guess who I got a letter from today—Mary Ellen—and written in her own hand writing! Can you imagine it? Or do you recall just how crooked and helpless her hands were when we were home. She’s writing a book about the hospital & her own funny experiences she tentatively calls it “Horizontal Holiday” which ain’t bad. She was quite ecstatic in her praises of you—which of course I just ate up—some time when you’re feeling particularly low I’ll let you read it. She considers me very lucky—but even at that I think she under estimates what I consider myself. I sent Mom a pair of good white gloves for Mother’s day. She just got a new coat which has a white collar on it so evidently she looked very good—Don wired her some flowers so she was quite thrilled..

    The Methodological Issues of the C.S.I Effect and it’s Controversial Impact on Criminal Investigation

    With the rising success of crime-scene related television shows in recent years, and forensic science as a new hot topic in multiple settings, the world of criminal justice faces new complications as this phenomenon continues to grow. This is popularly known as “The C.S.I Effect.” Contrary to belief, much of what the public perceives, or think they know about the operations of law enforcement and the legal system, comes from television. Consequently, as these television programs appeal to greater audiences around the world, increasingly unreasonable expectations are established in the forensic world, both inside and out of the courtroom. In light of this issue, research has discussed the many television shows that have greatly influenced the public perception such as C.S.I, Dexter and Sherlock, and provides a myriad of examples, describing the inconsistencies and flaws that these shows are able to portray in the span of a 40-minute program time slot. With each example, the correct methods, linguistics and techniques that are used in real-world investigations will be explained and the efficiency they provide to criminal cases. Throughout this research, the extension of the C.S.I Effect will be discussed, as well as its impact on a student’s decision in choosing a major in Forensic Science- are they truly satisfied with their choice or disappointed by the reality? Comparative analysis of the C.S.I Effect in the courtroom will be presented, as well as the controversy behind such a theory, will also be discussed at length. The goal of this research is to determine any empirical evidence behind the commonly-held belief that juror expectations for forensic evidence are linked to watching law-related television shows and if there can or cannot be anything to fix this detrimental issue

    integrated sensing system for upper limbs in neurologic rehabilitation

    Get PDF
    Abstract Wearable sensing devices for monitoring physiological parameters have proved their benefits in reducing the recovery time of mobility and in restoring the neuro-cognitive processes underlying the movement of the body. This is particularly evident in neurological patients from trauma or degenerative diseases. This kind of devices are generally wired sensors fixed on flexible supports, with complicated configuration and calibration. The work presented here has the goal to provide the design and implementation of a training system for rehabilitation including seven types of sensors, dedicated areas for data transmission in wireless mode, power management and signal multiplexing
