Hard to Believe

چکیده
This article presents a review of Hard to Believe, a compelling documentary reporting the forced organ procurement and death of Chinese prisoners of conscience. The documentary is targeted to ignite political and public pressure to stop these practices that are thought to be motivated by financial and political gain. Narrated by journalist and author Ethan Gutmann, the documentary pricks at the collective conscience, as credible witnesses provide evidence that point to an abrogation of every ethical principle ascribed to legitimate organ procurement.

Classification of drugs into two categories named soft and hard has a long history in Netherlands and United States of America. Soft drugs are believed to be non-addictive and less damaging to the health than hard drugs. According to this belief, decriminalization of soft drugs has much of pros. Their arguments for decriminalization may be gathered in two areas: law and health. The pros believe...
متن کاملA Two-Stage Beer Production Game: Consider a production team engaged in the daily production of a special microbrewed
The Basic Issue: In economic situations involving multiple agents, the primary source of uncertainty is often the behavior of other agents. This behavioral uncertainty can lead to situations in which, starting from the same structural conditions, multiple outcomes are possible depending on the expectations of the agents. For example, an economy might experience two possible outcomes as follows:...
متن کاملDensity and Polarization Profiles of Dipolar Hard Ellipsoids Confined between Hard Walls: A Density Functional Theory Approach
The density and polarization profiles of the dipolar hard ellipsoids confined between hard walls are studied using the density functional theory (DFT). The Hyper-Netted Chain (HNC) approximation is used to write excess grand potential of the system with respect to the bulk value. The number density is expanded up to zero and first order in polarization to find the results. For the zero order in...
متن کاملHoarding for a Hierarchical Storage Architecture
Despite recent increases in the processing power of handheld computers, often called palmtops, the devices continue to function primarily as personal information organizers. We believe adding mass storage to handheld computers will expand the usefulness of the devices. We propose a storage hierarchy, involving a hard disk and large software controlled flash memory cache, that lowers the power c...
متن کاملA Tree Decomposition Algorithm for Conceptual Graph Projection
This paper discusses combinatorial mechanisms for reasoning with conceptual graphs. We focus on the combinatorial aspects of a backtracking approach to the NP-hard problem of projection, which is the main tool for reasoning with conceptual graphs. We use effective graph-theoretical look-ahead procedures, based on a conceptual forest decomposition of the graph to be projected. We believe that ou...
