TRAIN SUICIDES ALL THE RAGE IN CALIFORNIA Palo Alto, CA – Suicide, the deliberate termination of one’s own life, has long been a mystery to medicine and psychiatry. Human beings are, after all, the only species on the planet aware of their mortality and it is that awareness that helps to define our lives. Like every other animal we eat, sleep, breathe, and have sex all in an effort to extend our own lives and the life of the species. That makes it all the more confusing and distressing, then, when a loved one decides to commit suicide.

SNIPER EXECUTION THE BEST IN DECADES Jarratt, VA – The process of execution has not been an easy thing in the modern era. Through the late 19th century and beyond there has been great debate in the United States and throughout the world as to the moral and ethical nature of executing criminals. Even more compelling has been the argument that such punishment does little to actually prevent crimes, one of the primary goals of the criminal justice system. Through that debate, much of the western world has done away with that particular form of punishment but one, the United States, has held onto to the process for dear life.
