Just finishing up our 10 night stay at this location. We found it very well situated, easy to get into the center of town or on the highway to head toward Banff. We were on the 3rd floor with wonderful views of the mountains. The front desk staff in particular were very friendly and helpful with any requests that we had. They always greeted us with a smile and offered us great tips for must see activities in the area. The room itself was somewhat typical. We had 2 queen beds, desk, desk chair, and easy chair with an ottoman. Carpet and all items appeared clean. There was also a microwave, refrigerator, and coffee maker that were quite convenient. Bathroom was nice sized with a wonderful shower head with good pressure. We did use the guest laundry room and the dryer and washer were in good working order. Detergent is available for sale at the front desk for $2.10. Washer and dryer were each $1.75 each. We did not eat in the restaurant and would have preferred a continental breakfast as some Holiday Inns offer. We did use the wi-fi and found it to be reliable. Also there is a computer and printer available for free in the lobby. Free parking was always available and the parking lot was well lighted. I did notice that others in their reviews complained about the room temperature. We used both the heater and the air conditioner and had no problems keeping our room cool or warm as we desired. We didn't use the hot tub - it was enclosed in a porch area. I would recommend they build a deck sometime in the future with a hot tub that one could use while enjoying the beautiful views of the mountains.

I don't read horror, ever. When I was 15, I made the mistake of reading part of 'The Exorcist.' It was the first and last horror book I've ever opened.
There's always ideas buzzing around, but it's whether they actually end up materialising into a song.

In short, I believe the Pentax K-r represents the best value on the market today, hands down. I was a bit disappointed at the low IQ scores dpreview assigned to the k-r in its review, as I've found it to rival the big boys in IQ, including the d700 and 7d.

A speech writer's take on important speeches, and the craft of writing for an audience.
It is a positive uplifting speech spoken from the heart. If I was blue penciling it the only thing I would edit out is the lines in regard to the "few, simply did not belong here...when the day came they did not return." This would remind the audience of people they would probably prefer to forget and might bring their personal focus back to incidents which were not pleasant to say the least. Why take their focus away from the event and put a sour note in an otherwise positive oration and experience.ReplyDelete

"Can you beat the S&P 500 with the S&P 500?" asks the author of today's article. The answer, surprisingly, is yes, you can! Confused? The author proceeds to point out that there are actually two S&P 500s – and while they are comprised of the same 500 stocks, one (the traditional S&P 500 Index) is capitalization-weighted and the other is equal-weighted. Most importantly, the equal-weighted version has shown a strong propensity to outperform the capitalization-weighted version. To read about the ETF that allows investors to play this equal-weighted index, CLICK HERE.
Buyback Scorecard: 4 Stock Buyback Winners To Consider
Stock buybacks are a source of controversy, with one common criticism being that money spent on buybacks is money that is not being spent on R&D, capital investments or acquisitions. And, in fact, one financial consulting firm that studied buybacks in recent years found that, on average, the returns of companies that launched buyback programs lagged behind the stock market afterwards. However, some companies have seen their buybacks pay off, and today's article highlights four "that look likely to continue their recent good runs." To find out what these stocks are, CLICK HERE.
Savings Crisis In America? There's An App For That!
Statistics show that there's a savings crisis in America involving all generations. Among those sobering statistics? Nearly two-thirds of adults in the U.S. lack even the most minimal savings safety net for an emergency situation. As such, the author of today's article highlights a new, easy-to-use personal finance app that may be a small part of the solution: Dobot – "the robot for your dough" – which "can automate your savings…help you save more money…and allow you to grab control of your financial future to save for the things that matter." To read more about Dobot, CLICK HERE.
A Rare Opportunity Exists To Buy One Of Warren Buffett's Favorite Stocks At A Discount – But Should You?
The author of today's article notes that it's rare to have an opportunity to buy one of Warren Buffett's favorite stocks on sale. Such an opportunity now exists, however, with Wells Fargo, as the bank suffers the aftermath of its phony account scandal. But just because the stock is selling at a discount, is it a smart buy – or is the firm permanently damaged as a result of this scandal? The author examines what a number of metrics indicate in this regard, as well as the risks associated with the bank. To read more, CLICK HERE.
"Sell Bonds, Post Haste!": Why Bonds, Not Stocks, May Be The Single Most Overvalued Asset Class
The single most overvalued asset class right now may not be U.S. stocks, but rather bonds. This is the assessment of the author of today's article, who believes that, "short of an economic recession, bond holders are almost guaranteed bigly losses over the next decade as we are now set on a likely path to lower bond prices and higher bond yields." For the author's multi-pronged rationale for why he believes investors should "sell bonds, post hate", CLICK HERE.
Assessing The Options In An Overvalued Market
While not all market observers subscribe to the belief that U.S. stocks are overvalued, the author of today's article certainly does. Given this, he proceeds to examine the various alternatives investors have when it comes to an overvalued market – including moving to cash, going overweight bonds in their portfolios, and taking on more exposure to overseas stocks – as well as the potential drawbacks of each of these strategies. To read more, CLICK HERE.
Are The Oil Markets In For A "Decade Of Disorder"?
While oil markets are currently characterized by low prices and oversupply, some observers – including the former administrator of the U.S. Energy Information Administration and the International Energy Agency – are looking ahead to the 2020s and foreseeing an impending "decade of disorder" for the oil markets as the drastic cutbacks in drilling and capital investment seen in recent years lead to a shortfall of supply that shale will not be able to make up for. To read more, CLICK HERE.
6 Under-The-Radar Global Investments To Consider
"Using some of your investments for global stocks and funds makes sense for diversification," acknowledges the author of today's article, who further notes that it may make all the more sense now given the uncertainty surrounding the U.S. economy. As such, he proceeds to highlight what he sees as six of the best global investments that may not be on most investors' radars. To find out what these 6 investments – a mix of funds and specific companies – are, CLICK HERE.
Penny Stocks 101: A Primer On The Wild West Of The Investing World
"Penny stocks could be your wildest ride yet as an investor," states the author of today's article regarding this class of stocks which offer the potential for impressive gains…or impressive losses. For those who want to learn more about the world of penny stocks – often referred to as the wild west of investing – today's article provides a primer. What are penny stocks and how does one buy them? What are their potential rewards…and inherent risks? What three things does the author say investors should look at when picking penny stocks to avoid getting "penny stuck"? CLICK HERE to find out.
Market Insights From A Rare Breed – Fund Managers Who Actually Outperform
Today's article notes that a stunning 88% of active U.S. domestic fund managers underperform relative to their benchmarks. Given this, those few fund managers who actually outperform might have some insights worth listening to. As such, the author spoke with three of these rare outperformers to see what investors can learn from their success, as well as what opportunities and risks they see in the markets right now.

His Highness the Amir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, honored by UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon as "Humanitarian Leader," announced that Kuwait would double its annual contribution to the Central Emergency Response Fund (CEFR) to USD one million.
"I am pleased to announce before you, doubling our fixed annual voluntary contribution to the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) to USD one million," His Highness the Amir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad said in a speech before the ceremony.
Sheikh Sabah, highly appreciating the honoring as a "special occasion," said Kuwait, since its independence and gaining the UN membership, has followed a steady approach in its foreign policy, based essentially on humanitarian assistance to all needy countries "regardless of their geographic location, religious beliefs or ethnic origins." This assistance is in "pursuance of its belief and conviction of the importance of international partnership, as well as the unification and activation of international efforts, aimed at the maintenance and preservation of the foundations of life, that is the human spirit," said His Highness the Amir.

By Prada Mahardika · PostedBootloop (Restarting by itself) after installing Nvidia Web Driver Hi. Recently, I have successfully installing a. Hackintosh Sierra on my PC. It's my first try use a Hackintosh. The question I want to ask is why my pc is kept restarting by itself (Kernel Panic?) after installing NvidiaWebDriver? I've try many various ways on google but still don't work. Here is one of my crashlog witonly one arguments This crashlog with Nvda_drv=1 This is with GraphicEnabler=0 And nvda_drv=1 The Reason why I'm doing this I'm tired of my screen tearing, Only have 5 MB of VRAM (As stated on "About this Mac") .My intel HD 530 won't work, even though I install the driver from Multibeast. My pc Spec. Hackintosh Zone Sierra 10.12.3 Installed on separated Harddisk drive (I have 2 Drive ; The first drive for windows; The Second one for Hackintosh) Using Clover as boot loader i3-6100 H110M GTX 950 8GB Of Ram Looking for further replies sorry for my bad English
the sata mode in my bios is set to AHCI also I tried copying some kexts I found around the internet (that should help with detecting the sata disk drive) to the usb EFI\Clover\Kext\other folder but still it doesn't detect my hard drive any ideas what else could be wrong? should I format it in any particular way?
By Coposaurio · PostedCant Install Yosemite in an AMD PC Hello I tried to Install Yosemite on my HP Pavilion AMD A10-8700P Radeon R6, 10 Compute Cores 4C + 6G 1.80 GHz
16 GB RAM. I downleaded the Niresh's Yosemite with AMD & Intel ISO & USB. Im using a 16gb USB. I tried different bootflags but it frozes. Here is a picture of tat moment.
Please help!
Thanks in advance!!!
BCM943225 Country code error I'm sorry for my bad English, I was able to install sierra on my HP Folio 9470M and it all works fine but I noticed that the BCM943225 wi-fi card as US country code and some apps controlling the location do not work because Require as country code IT.
Being a beginner, I wonder if some good soul can explain how to replace the wrong code. thank you Gc PS: Pc Hp Folio 9470M I5 - 8Gb - 250 SSD - Wi-Fi BCM943225 (no BT) Niresh Sierra Zone
By KimChoJapFan · PostedThe method I used to install Yosemite on my PC was using TransMac to write the DMG file of Niresh Zone Yosemite to my 8 GB flash drive. If you want to go with the appstore version of El Capitan, then you'll need to have access to a Mac or at least have El Capitan running in a virtual machine like I did using the DevHackers El Capitan ISO on VirtualBox: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CshWGnOMwcc From there you can download the appstore version of El Capitan (10.11.6) and get your USB ready using disk utility and write the contents of the appstore version of El Capitan to your flashdrive with Unibeast which will also include the Clover bootloader if my memory serves me correctly. It may be a bit easier to use Niresh Zone El Capitan if you're coming from Windows. I don't know the process for those on Linux but I suppose the ISO version would suffice in that circumstance alongside the dd command in terminal. (If you're using TransMac on Windows, you'll want to get the DMG version. If you're using VirtualBox or Linux, you'll want to get the ISO version.)

PurpleRestore is a tool made by Apple and is used for flashing iDevices. It provides far more customization than iTunes, and it is usually used to flash internal firmware to prototypes.
This tool can (and is meant to) handle multiple restores. When performing restores PurpleRestore color coordinates the device in the table and when the device is about to receive the AppleLogo it will turn the background color of the screen to the color assigned to the device. Like iTunes, PurpleRestore communicates with iDevices using a usbmux connection.
"PurpleFAT" is an Apple Factory Activation tool, assumed to be used in factories for UUT's (units under test). If the unactivated device is plugged into a computer and the software is run, it searches for the device and would activate it (Seems not to work and just plays a sound saying "Oh nooh!") PurpleFAT needs an activation sever. https://albert.apple.com/WebObjects/ALUnbrick.woa/wa/deviceActivation does not work.
Application can be locked for some security reasons, and requires a passcode when unlocking the interface (This passcode is stored in a string, when dissasembled can be found at __text:00003089).
PurpleSNIFF is a tool made by Apple to read identification and diagnostic information from the device. The tool is used by Apple engineers as well as factory workers at Foxconn/Pegatron. It's included in the RestoreTools package.
Like iTunes, PurpleSNIFF communicates with iDevices using a usbmux connection.
PurpleBuildSanitizer is an Apple internal Mac application for stripping internal builds for internal use. When creating a stripped bundle, it names the folder like so, N92-INTERNAL-INSTALL-iPhone3,3_4.2.6_8E200_Restore.

PARIS, October 31 (Itar-Tass) —— Russia calls on the Syrian opposition to appoint a negotiator because nothing can be achieved without negotiation, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.
"Speaking of the work with the opposition, we should talk to the whole opposition that cannot even come to the negotiating table for the time being, let alone forming a delegation for work," Lavrov said on Wednesday, October 31.
"There is no person who could speak on behalf of the Syrian opposition and there will no progress without negotiation," he said.
Lavrov urged international players to influence the Syrian sides in order to prod them towards dialogue.
"If a priority goal of all of us is to stop the violence, each one of us mist say one and the same thing to the Syrian forces he can influence: stop hostilities simultaneously," the minister said.
"Russia is working with all opposition forces. We would like those who work with the opposition to talk to the government as well. After all the government represents a certain and quite considerable part of the Syrian population," Lavrov said.

Yoga pants are having a moment. There's a love-hate relationship with these form fitting pants
with elastic waistbands, that were originally designed to practice yoga with more comfort. Today, yoga pants aren't just used for practicing yoga, but instead, they're worn at the gym, while running errands, lounging around the house, and even in the office. Some think these pants should be reserved for the gym. Many others love seeing the form-fitting fashion out and about.
From a female perspective, these pants are ridiculously comfortable. And although criticisms have been leveled at this fashion fad – they're too casual, or too skin tight – it hasn't stopped some of the most famous designer brands from creating their own line of yoga pants.
From a male perspective, yoga pants have been gifted to fashion directly from the Gods. Because these leggings and workout pants are so tight and form fitting, they bring lots of attention to the booty, and even give it an extra lift. Of course, not everyone can pull off yoga pants – it requires a particularly admirable butt to make these pants look good. The celebrities on this list don't just look OK in yoga pants – they look painfully good.
These shots of celebs in their yoga pants are sure to provide fitspiration for the women out there, and a whole other sort of inspiration for the men…
16. Eliza Dushku
Most of us know Eliza Dushku as Faith from Joss Whedon's series, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" as well for a slew of other movies that came out in the late nineties and early 2000's. Recently, Eliza has been doing a lot of partnering with Joss in bringing new television shows as well as making guest appearances on shows and cameos in a bunch of movies. If that wasn't busy enough, Eliza also lends her voice to various video game characters as a voice over artist.
You can catch Eliza often wearing yoga pants, as it is probably the most quick and comfortable wear that accommodates her busy schedule. And since she looks as great as she does, she can keep sporting the yoga pants as long as she wants to.

Nautilus
Originally posted May 4, 2017

Here is an excerpt:

As we probed the deeper implications of Penrose's theory about consciousness, it wasn't always clear where to draw the line between the scientific and philosophical dimensions of his thinking. Consider, for example, superposition in quantum theory. How could Schrödinger's cat be both dead and alive before we open the box? "An element of proto-consciousness takes place whenever a decision is made in the universe," he said. "I'm not talking about the brain. I'm talking about an object which is put into a superposition of two places. Say it's a speck of dust that you put into two locations at once. Now, in a small fraction of a second, it will become one or the other. Which does it become? Well, that's a choice. Is it a choice made by the universe? Does the speck of dust make this choice? Maybe it's a free choice. I have no idea."

I wondered if Penrose's theory has any bearing on the long-running philosophical argument between free will and determinism. Many neuroscientists believe decisions are caused by neural processes that aren't ruled by conscious thought, rendering the whole idea of free will obsolete. But the indeterminacy that's intrinsic to quantum theory would suggest that causal connections break down in the conscious brain. Is Penrose making the case for free will?

"Not quite, though at this stage, it looks like it," he said. "It does look like these choices would be random. But free will, is that random?" Like much of his thinking, there's a "yes, but" here. His claims are provocative, but they're often provisional. And so it is with his ideas about free will. "I've certainly grown up thinking the universe is deterministic. Then I evolved into saying, 'Well, maybe it's deterministic but it's not computable.' But is it something more subtle than that? Is it several layers deeper? If it's something we use for our conscious understanding, it's going to be a lot deeper than even straightforward, non-computable deterministic physics. It's a kind of delicate borderline between completely deterministic behavior and something which is completely free."

Originally posted May 23, 2017

Donald Trump's administration says the government ethics office lacks the authority to force the president to reveal how many waivers he's granted to ex-lobbyists in his new administration.

Trump's budget director, Mick Mulvaney, is asking that the office of government ethics (OGE) director, Walter Shaub, halt his inquiry into lobbyists-turned-Trump administration employees. Mulvaney wrote in a letter last week to Shaub: "This data call appears to raise legal questions regarding the scope of OGE's authorities."

The White House is looking to block an effort from the government's top ethics office to disclose the names of former lobbyists who have been granted waivers to work in the federal government, according to a new report.

The New York Times reports that the White House sent a letter to the head of the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) challenging its legal authority to request that information.

"It is an extraordinary thing," Walter Shaub Jr., the director of the ethics office, told the Times. "I have never seen anything like it."

The letter sent by Mick Mulvaney, the head of the Office of Management and Budget, questions whether the ethics office has the authority to demand information regarding ex-lobbyists who are currently working in the federal government.

The judge indicated at a hearing Friday that the psychologists should be able defend themselves in the 2015 lawsuit without compromising government secrecy around the exact role Gina Haspel played in the agency's overseas interrogation program years before she was tapped to be second in command by the Trump administration.

The American Civil Liberties Union, which filed the case on behalf of three ex-prisoners, one of whom died in custody, is urging the judge not to let the psychologists' lawyers question Haspel and a retired Central Intelligence Agency official. While the defendants want to demonstrate their actions were approved by the agency, the ACLU says that won't shield them from liability.

BMJ 2017; 357

Nearly half of US physicians receive payments from the drug, medical device, and related medical industries, and surgeons and male physicians are more likely to do so, a US study has found.

The study leader, Jona A Hattangadi-Gluth, of the University of California, San Diego, based in La Jolla, said that most payments were relatively small but that many specialists receive more than $10 000 (£7750; $9160) a year from industry, including 11% of orthopedic surgeons, 12% of neurologists, and 13% of neurosurgeons.

She said, "The data suggest that these payments are much more pervasive than we thought and [that] there is much more money going directly to physicians than maybe people recognized."

The researchers analyzed data from 2015 collected from Open Payments, a program created by the 2010 Affordable Care Act that requires biomedical manufacturers and group purchasing organizations to report all general payments, ownership interests, and research payments paid to allopathic and osteopathic physicians in the US.

Here is an excerpt:

Another example of the two sides of technology is drones—a modern technology that is already being deployed widely—from the delivery of groceries to ensuring that life saving equipment reaches first responders in high density urban areas. But for every beneficent use of drone tech, there are an equal number of dubious uses that challenge our ethical boundaries. Foremost among these is development of AI-powered killer drones—autonomous flying weapons intelligent enough to accurately distinguish between friend and foe and then, autonomously, take the decision to execute a kill.

This duality is inherent in all of tech. But just because technology can be used for evil, that should not, of itself, be a reason not to use it. We need new technology to better ourselves and the world we live in—and we need to be wise about how we apply it so that our use remains consistent with the basic morality inherent in modern society. This implies that each time we make a technological breakthrough we must assess afresh, the contexts within which they could present themselves and the uses to which they should (and should not) be put. If required, we must take the trouble to re-draw our moral boundaries, establishing the limits within which they must be constrained.

Abstract:

Despite growing interest in the topic of moral character, there is very little precision
and a lack of agreement among researchers as to what is evaluated when people evaluate
character. In this chapter we define moral character in novel social cognitive terms and offer
empirical support for the idea that the central qualities of moral character are those deemed
essential for social relationships.

Here is an excerpt:

We approach this chapter from the theoretical standpoint that the centrality of character
evaluation is due to its function in social life. Evaluation of character is, we think, inherently a
judgment about a person's qualifications for being a solid long-term social investment. That is,
people attempt to suss out moral character because they want to know whether a particular agent
is the type of person who likely possesses the necessary (even if not sufficient) qualities they
expect in a social relationship. In developing these ideas theoretically and empirically, we
consider what form moral character takes, discuss what this proposal suggests about how people
may and do assess others' moral character, and identify an assortment of qualities that our
perspective predicts will be central to moral character.

JAMA. 2017;317(17):1725-1726.

Physicians have a moral responsibility to patients; they are trusted to place the needs and interests of patients ahead of their own, free of unwarranted outside influences on their decisions. Those who have relationships that might be seen to influence their decisions and behaviors that may affect fulfilling their responsibilities to patients must be fully transparent about them. Two types of interactions and activities involving physicians are most relevant: (1) commercial or research relationships between a physician expert and a health care company designed to advance an idea or promote a product, and (2) various gifts, sponsored meals, and educational offerings that come directly or indirectly to physicians from these companies.

Whether these and other ties to industry are important is not a new issue for medicine. Considerations regarding the potential influence of commercial ties date back at least to the 1950s and 1960s. In 1991, Relman reminded physicians that they have "a unique opportunity to assume personal responsibility for important decisions that are not influenced by or subordinated to the purposes of third parties." However, examples of potential subordination are easily found. There are reports of physicians who are paid handsomely to promote a drug or device, essentially serving as a company spokesperson; of investigators who have ownership in the company that stands to gain if the clinical trial is successful; and of clinical guideline panels that are dominated by experts with financial ties to companies whose products are relevant to the disease or condition at hand.

JAMA. 2017;317(17):1717-1718.

Preservation of trust is the essential purpose of policies about conflict of interest. Physicians have many important roles including caring for individual patients, protecting the public's health, engaging in research, reporting scientific and clinical discoveries, crafting professional guidelines, and advising policy makers and regulatory bodies. Success in all these functions depends on others—laypersons, professional peers, and policy leaders—believing and acting on the word of physicians. Therefore, the confidence of others in physician judgment is of paramount importance. When trust in physician judgment is impaired, the role of physicians is diminished.

Physicians should make informed, disinterested judgments. To be disinterested means being free of personal advantage. The type of advantage that is typically of concern in most situations involving physicians is financial. When referring to conflict of interest, the term generally means a financial interest that relates to the issue at hand. More specifically, a conflict of interest can be discerned by using a reasonable person standard; ie, a conflict of interest exists when a reasonable person would interpret the financial circumstances pertaining to a situation as potentially sufficient to influence the judgment of the physician in question.

Siegel, Z. Kurth-Nelson, P. Dayan & R. Dolan
Nature Neuroscience

Abstract

Moral systems universally prohibit harming others for personal gain. However, we know little about how such principles guide moral behavior. Using a task that assesses the financial cost participants ascribe to harming others versus themselves, we probed the relationship between moral behavior and neural representations of profit and pain. Most participants displayed moral preferences, placing a higher cost on harming others than themselves. Moral preferences correlated with neural responses to profit, where participants with stronger moral preferences had lower dorsal striatal responses to profit gained from harming others. Lateral prefrontal cortex encoded profit gained from harming others, but not self, and tracked the blameworthiness of harmful choices. Moral decisions also modulated functional connectivity between lateral prefrontal cortex and the profit-sensitive region of dorsal striatum. The findings suggest moral behavior in our task is linked to a neural devaluation of reward realized by a prefrontal modulation of striatal value representations.

"Our findings suggest the brain internalizes the moral judgments of others, simulating how much others might blame us for potential wrongdoing, even when we know our actions are anonymous," said Dr Crockett.

The scans also revealed that an area of the brain involved in making moral judgments, the lateral prefrontal cortex, was most active in trials where inflicting pain yielded minimal profit.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2017; (ISSN: 1091-6490)

The capacity for representing and reasoning over sets of possibilities, or modal cognition, supports diverse kinds of high-level judgments: causal reasoning, moral judgment, language comprehension, and more. Prior research on modal cognition asks how humans explicitly and deliberatively reason about what is possible but has not investigated whether or how people have a default, implicit representation of which events are possible. We present three studies that characterize the role of implicit representations of possibility in cognition. Collectively, these studies differentiate explicit reasoning about possibilities from default implicit representations, demonstrate that human adults often default to treating immoral and irrational events as impossible, and provide a case study of high-level cognitive judgments relying on default implicit representations of possibility rather than explicit deliberation.

Social Influence

Abstract

Over the last decade, social media has increasingly been used as a platform for political and moral discourse. We investigate whether conformity, specifically concerning moral attitudes, occurs in these virtual environments apart from face-to-face interactions. Participants took an online survey and saw either statistical information about the frequency of certain responses, as one might see on social media (Study 1), or arguments that defend the responses in either a rational or emotional way (Study 2). Our results show that social information shaped moral judgments, even in an impersonal digital setting. Furthermore, rational arguments were more effective at eliciting conformity than emotional arguments. We discuss the implications of these results for theories of moral judgment that prioritize emotional responses.

German medicine under Hitler resulted in so many horrors – eugenics, human experimentation, forced sterilization, involuntary euthanasia, mass murder – that there is a temptation to say that "Nazi doctors had no ethics".

However, according to an article in the Annals of Internal Medicine by Florian Bruns and Tessa Chelouche (from Germany and Israel respectively), this was not the case at all. In fact, medical ethics was an important part of the medical curriculum between 1939 and 1945. Nazi officials established lectureships in every medical school in Germany for a subject called "Medical Law and Professional Studies" (MLPS).

There was no lack of ethics. It was just the wrong kind of ethics.

It is important to realize that ethical reasoning can be corrupted and that teaching ethics is, in itself, no guarantee of the moral integrity of physicians.

Taken together, the results suggest that unethical behavior becomes easier when we perceive our own actions in indirect terms, which makes things that we would otherwise balk at seem a bit more palatable. In other words, deploying indirect speech doesn't just help us evade blame from others — it also helps us to convince ourselves that unethical acts aren't so bad after all.

That's not to say that this is a conscious process. A speaker who shrouds his harmful intentions in indirect speech may understand that this will help him hold on to his standing in the public eye, or maintain his reputation among those closest to him — a useful tactic when those intentions are likely to be condemned or fall outside the bounds of socially acceptable behavior. But that same speaker may be unaware of just how much their indirect speech is easing their own psyche, too.

Technologies built on artificial intelligence are revolutionising human life. As these machines become increasingly integrated in our daily lives, the decisions they face will go beyond the merely pragmatic, and extend into the ethical. When faced with an unavoidable accident, should a self-driving car protect its passengers or seek to minimise overall lives lost? Should a drone strike a group of terrorists planning an attack, even if civilian casualties will occur? As artificially intelligent machines become more autonomous, these questions are impossible to ignore.

There are good arguments for why some ethical decisions ought to be left to computers—unlike human beings, machines are not led astray by cognitive biases, do not experience fatigue, and do not feel hatred toward an enemy. An ethical AI could, in principle, be programmed to reflect the values and rules of an ideal moral agent. And free from human limitations, such machines could even be said to make better moral decisions than us. Yet the notion that a machine might be given free reign over moral decision-making seems distressing to many—so much so that, for some, their use poses a fundamental threat to human dignity. Why are we so reluctant to trust machines when it comes to making moral decisions? Psychology research provides a clue: we seem to have a fundamental mistrust of individuals who make moral decisions by calculating costs and benefits – like computers do.

Patient Education and Counseling
January 2017, Volume 100, Issue 1, Pages 14–17

Abstract

Objective

To review the barriers to patient engagement and techniques to increase patients' engagement in their medical decision-making and care.

Discussion

Barriers exist to patient involvement in their decision-making and care. Individual barriers include education, language, and culture/attitudes (e.g., deference to physicians). Contextual barriers include time (lack of) and timing (e.g., lag between test results being available and patient encounter). Clinicians should gauge patients' interest in being involved and their level of current knowledge about their condition and options. Framing information in multiple ways and modalities can enhance understanding, which can empower patients to become more engaged. Tools such as decision aids or audio recording of conversations can help patients remember important information, a requirement for meaningful engagement. Clinicians and researchers should work to create social norms and prompts around patients asking questions and expressing their values. Telehealth and electronic platforms are promising modalities for allowing patients to ask questions on in a non-intimidating atmosphere.

Conclusion

Researchers and clinicians should be motivated to find ways to engage patients on the ethical imperative that many patients prefer to be more engaged in some way, shape, or form; patients have better experiences when they are engaged, and engagement improves health outcomes.

Psychological Review, Vol 124(2), Mar 2017, 179-196.

Abstract

Ignorance is generally pictured as an unwanted state of mind, and the act of willful ignorance may raise eyebrows. Yet people do not always want to know, demonstrating a lack of curiosity at odds with theories postulating a general need for certainty, ambiguity aversion, or the Bayesian principle of total evidence. We propose a regret theory of deliberate ignorance that covers both negative feelings that may arise from foreknowledge of negative events, such as death and divorce, and positive feelings of surprise and suspense that may arise from foreknowledge of positive events, such as knowing the sex of an unborn child. We conduct the first representative nationwide studies to estimate the prevalence and predictability of deliberate ignorance for a sample of 10 events. Its prevalence is high: Between 85% and 90% of people would not want to know about upcoming negative events, and 40% to 70% prefer to remain ignorant of positive events. Only 1% of participants consistently wanted to know. We also deduce and test several predictions from the regret theory: Individuals who prefer to remain ignorant are more risk averse and more frequently buy life and legal insurance. The theory also implies the time-to-event hypothesis, which states that for the regret-prone, deliberate ignorance is more likely the nearer the event approaches. We cross-validate these findings using 2 representative national quota samples in 2 European countries. In sum, we show that deliberate ignorance exists, is related to risk aversion, and can be explained as avoiding anticipatory regret.

Foucault's work shows that disciplinary power was just one of many forms that power has come to take over the past few hundred years. Disciplinary anatomo-politics persists alongside sovereign power as well as the power of bio-politics. In his next book, The History of Sexuality, Foucault argued that bio-politics helps us to understand how garish sexual exuberance persists in a culture that regularly tells itself that its true sexuality is being repressed. Bio-power does not forbid sexuality, but rather regulates it in the maximal interests of very particular conceptions of reproduction, family and health. It was a bio-power wielded by psychiatrists and doctors that, in the 19th century, turned homosexuality into a 'perversion' because of its failure to focus sexual activity around the healthy reproductive family. It would have been unlikely, if not impossible, to achieve this by sovereign acts of direct physical coercion. Much more effective were the armies of medical men who helped to straighten out their patients for their own supposed self-interest.

Other forms of power also persist in our midst. Some regard the power of data – that is the info-power of social media, data analytics and ceaseless algorithmic assessment – as the most significant kind of power that has emerged since Foucault's death in 1984.

The Supreme Court's liberal justices shredded an argument by Alabama's solicitor general Monday that criminal defendants are not entitled to a mental health expert separate from the ones tapped by prosecutors.

McWilliams v. Dunn, the case the Supreme Court heard this morning, is nested inside the court's 1984 decision in Ake v. Oklahoma, which held that poor criminal defendants using a defense of insanity are entitled to an expert to help support their claim.

A split has emerged in the 30 years since the decision, with some states deciding one expert helping both the prosecution and defense satisfies the requirement, and others choosing to assign an expert for the defendant to use exclusively.

As the overall US suicide rate increases, a CDC study showed that the trend toward higher rates in less populated parts of the country and lower rates in large urban areas has become more pronounced.

Using data from the National Vital Statistics System and the US Census Bureau, the researchers reported that from 1999 to 2015, the annual suicide rate increased by 14%, from 12.6 to 14.4 per 100, 000 US residents aged 10 years or older.

Higher suicide rates in less urban areas could be linked with limited access to mental health care, the opioid overdose epidemic, and social isolation, the investigators suggested. The 2007-2009 economic recession may have caused the sharp upswing, they added, because rural areas and small towns were hardest hit.

"Conscience clause" legislation has proliferated in recent years, extending the legal rights of health care professionals to cite their personal religious or moral beliefs as a reason to opt out of performing specific procedures or caring for particular patients. Physicians can refuse to perform abortions or in vitro fertilization. Nurses can refuse to aid in end-of-life care. Pharmacists can refuse to fill prescriptions for contraception. More recently, state legislation has enabled counselors and therapists to refuse to treat lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) patients, and in December, a federal judge issued a nationwide injunction against Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act, which forbids discrimination on the basis of gender identity or termination of a pregnancy.

Some libertarians, however, attempt to avoid the controversial conclusion that libertarianism is incompatible with compulsory vaccination. In my recent paper, "The Case Against Libertarian Arguments for Compulsory Vaccination," I argue that such attempts are unsuccessful, and so libertarians must either develop new arguments, or join Senator Paul in opposing compulsory vaccination.

How might a libertarian try to defend compulsory vaccination? One argument is that going unvaccinated exposes others to risk, and this violates their rights. Since the state is permitted to use coercive measures to protect rights, the state may require parents to vaccinate their children. But for libertarians, this argument has two shortcomings. First, there are other, far riskier activities that the libertarian prohibits the government from regulating. For instance, owning and using automobiles or firearms imposes far more significant risk than going unvaccinated, but libertarians defend our rights to own and use automobiles and firearms. Second, one individual going unvaccinated poses very little risk; the risk eventuates only if many collectively go unvaccinated, thereby endangering herd immunity. Imposing such an independently small risk hardly seems to be a rights violation.

Abstract

Do we have a duty to use moral neurointerventions to correct deficits in our moral psychology? On their surface, these technologies appear to pose worrisome risks to valuable dimensions of the self, and these risks could conceivably weigh against any prima facie moral duty we have to use these technologies. Focquaert and Schermer (Neuroethics 8(2):139–151, 2015) argue that neurointerventions pose special risks to the self because they operate passively on the subject's brain, without her active participation, unlike 'active' interventions. Some neurointerventions, however, appear to be relatively unproblematic, and some appear to preserve the agent's sense of self precisely because they operate passively. In this paper, I propose three conditions that need to be met for a medical intervention to be considered low-risk, and I say that these conditions cut across the active/passive divide. A low-risk intervention must: (i) pass pre-clinical and clinical trials, (ii) fare well in post-clinical studies, and (iii) be subject to regulations protecting informed consent. If an intervention passes these tests, its risks do not provide strong countervailing reasons against our prima facie duty to undergo the intervention.

Here is an excerpt:

Among the many things that must now be considered is what role and function the law will play. Expert opinions differ wildly on the likelihood and imminence of a future where sufficiently advanced robots walk among us, but we must confront the fact that autonomous technology with the capacity to cause harm is already around. Whether it's a military drone with a full payload, a law enforcement robot exploding to kill a dangerous suspect or something altogether more innocent that causes harm through accident, error, oversight, or good ol' fashioned stupidity.

There's a cynical saying in law that "wheres there's blame, there's a claim". But who do we blame when a robot does wrong? This proposition can easily be dismissed as something too abstract to worry about. But let's not forget that a robot was arrested (and released without charge) for buying drugs; and Tesla Motors was absolved of responsibility by the American National Highway Traffic Safety Administration when a driver was killed in a crash after his Tesla was in autopilot.

While problems like this are certainly peculiar, history has a lot to teach us. For instance, little thought was given to who owned the sky before the Wright Brothers took the Kitty Hawk for a joyride. Time and time again, the law is presented with these novel challenges. And despite initial overreaction, it got there in the end. Simply put: law evolves.
