Capital Punishment and the ‘Acnestis’ of its Modern Reformation
The term “Capital Punishment” encompasses any penalizing punishment that results in the death of people accused of committing a crime.1 This damnation dates back to the Eighteenth Century B.C. in the “Code of Hammurabi,” a misemployed code that ensured the death penalty for twenty-five distinct crimes. People convicted of crimes were made to suffer for their actions in horrific ways, including being burnt alive and drowning.2 Since then, death by hanging has been the conventional method for capital punishment in most of the world
“Zealous” Professional Ethics: The Transcendence of Natural Law, Legal Positivism, and the Ethical Stage in the U.S. Legal Ethics System and the Moral Dilemma that Surround Zealous Representation
The zealous pursuit of law has its own ideals and dogma that sets it apart from the other rules in the Model Rules of Professional Conduct. Decades after many enactments and amendments, there still exists many debates considering its operation as to whether an attorney owes a duty toward society over the representation of the client. This is a Delphi method that has made even the best seasoned ‘Justiciar’ and ‘Legislator’ unable to find the proper guidelines to implement upon the Legal Superstructure. The Model Rules of Professional Conduct attempt to clear the fog around the existing principle of Zealous Representation, but clouded grey areas of the rules still exist. In many ways, unraveling this knot is similar to picking apart a spider’s web without damaging its intricate design. This paper tries to unknot the Gordian Knot of zealous representation and offers an overview of the complex relationship between Natural Law, Legal Positivism, and the General Principles of Morality with Legal Ethics and the conflict that arises between the inherent sense of justice and fairness with the Model Rules during a lawyer’s representation of clients. In addition, this paper offers some tentative suggestions that attorneys should be aware of the ethical constraints of their profession and should not exceed the scope of their authority when representing their clients. To ensure proper representation of their clients, attorneys must understand and adhere to the ethical boundaries of their profession. The authors attempt to apply existing citations and precedents to point out the boundary of zealous representation

Emergence of order from chaos through a continuous phase transition in a turbulent reactive flow system
As the Reynolds number is increased, a laminar fluid flow becomes turbulent,
and the range of time and length scales associated with the flow increases.
Yet, in a turbulent reactive flow system, as we increase the Reynolds number,
we observe the emergence of a single dominant time scale in the acoustic
pressure fluctuations, as indicated by its loss of multifractality. Such
emergence of order from chaos is intriguing and has hardly been studied. We
perform experiments in a turbulent reactive flow system consisting of flame,
acoustic, and hydrodynamic subsystems interacting nonlinearly. We study the
evolution of short-time correlated dynamics between the acoustic field and the
flame in the spatiotemporal domain of the system. The order parameter, defined
as the fraction of the correlated dynamics, increases gradually from zero to
one. We find that the susceptibility of the order parameter, correlation
length, and correlation time diverge at a critical point between chaos and
order. Our results show that the observed emergence of order from chaos is a
continuous phase transition. Moreover, we provide experimental evidence that
the critical exponents characterizing this transition fall in the universality
class of directed percolation. Our study demonstrates how a real-world complex,
non-equilibrium turbulent reactive flow system exhibits universal behavior near
a critical point

Natural Resources In the Arctic: The Equal Distribution of Uneven Resrouces
This paper analyses the governance machine in place at the Arctic and examines the application of the principles of “common heritage of mankind” at the Arctic. This paper also offers some tentative propositions aimed at protecting Out Bound investment rights and how the World Trade Organization or other countries, like the U.S., can intercede in the Arctic investment sphere and attempt to regulate along with the United Nations Convention for the Law of the Sea
