The ratio of insulin to C-peptide can be used to make a forensic diagnosis of exogenous insulin overdosage

A 25-year-old man was killed by his lover by an intravenous injection of insulin and then air. We had difficulty in determining whether insulin had really been injected, so we have 18 control cases and proved that the ratio of insulin to C-peptide in a corpse can be used as positive evidence for the insulin overdosage.     

Biparietal Thinning: Accidental Death by a Fall from Standing Height

Biparietal thinning resulting in bilateral and symmetrical resorption and loss of thickness of the parietal bones is an uncommon to rare condition in the anthropological and clinical literature. This enigmatic condition of unknown etiology was first reported in the 18th century and has been variously described as a nonmetric trait, anatomical variant, anomaly, and pathology. Biparietal thinning presents grossly and radiographically as oval‐shaped depressions in 0.25–0.8% and 0.4–0.5% of individuals and with a higher frequency in females over the age of 60 years. A review of the literature revealed only one example of cranial trauma associated with biparietal thinning and none of fatal trauma associated with this condition. This case reports a rare example of fatal trauma in an elderly man that resulted from a backward fall from a standing height and highlights the increased risk of craniocerebral trauma in individuals with this condition.     

大学英语课堂口语学习环境的感知及其与口语自我效能感相关性研究

本文通过调查我校学生对大学英语课堂口语学习环境的感知及其与口语自我效能感的关系,结果发现：（1） 多数学生对口语学习环境各维度认知较积极;（2） 学生对于口语学习环境的感知在性别和口语流利程度层面上存在显著性差异;（3） 口语学习环境的六个维度与口语自我效能感呈显著正相关,其中课堂参与和学生亲和是口语自我效能感的两个预测变量。由此提出对大学英语课堂教学的五点建议。     

我国商事登记制度之检讨

商事登记制度是我国经济立法中的一项重要制度。商事登记行为的性质为行政行为,更进一步说商事登记行为在一般行业为行政确认行为,但在涉及国家利益、公共利益或风险大对公众影响面较广的特殊行业为行政许可行为。应从商事登记制度的目标和价值入手来界定商事登记必要记载事项的相对统一的标准。商事登记的效力也因主体不同、登记事项不同而有所不同。目前商事登记制度还存在许多不完善之处,有必要予以完善。     

论"商法公法化"之逻辑思辨

"商法公法化"这一命题存在以下逻辑错误:第一,将"公法"概念偷换为"强制性法律规范"或"严格责任"等;第二,商法属于私法是定性分析,但论证"商法公法化"又改采定量分析;第三,部门法划分方法不周延导致商法与经济法界限不清."商法公法化"所反应的真实本质是国家公权力对私人商事关系的干预,只是国家对私人商事关系的干预并不都体现为公法,涉私强制性法律规范亦体现为国家对商事关系的干涉但属于私法.国家对商事关系的干预主要体现为涉私强制性规范,商法公法化趋势并不明显,无法获得证实.     

Building a Harmonious Society and Achieving Individual Harmony

Rapid economic growth in China is accompanied by economic disparity, corruption, crime, and a great deal of frustration among China’s citizens. These social problems threaten the country’s further development, social stability, and harmony. This study discusses the recent campaign in China for a harmonious society. Many Chinese scholars, officials, and citizens seem to believe that more effective and efficient social structures will result in social harmony. However, social harmony is a more complex social psychological phenomenon which is determined by the interactions among social values, people, and society. People achieve social harmony when they feel their values and desires are attainable in society. They have to make strong social and psychological effort if they want to successfully achieve harmony with nature, society, and themselves. Ai Guo Han, professor of Writing Arts at Rowan University.

关于解决乡镇长直接选举的体制性矛盾的思考

乡镇长直接选举是深入发展社会主义民主的必然要求。但乡镇长直接选举与现行的乡镇人民代表大会体制、乡镇党委的领导体制、党管干部体制以及上下级政府之间的压力型体制在理论与实践上存在着诸多的矛盾。只有从新的视角正确认识这些矛盾,进行配套的基层政权体制改革,乡镇长直接选举才能顺利地实施,直接选举的目标才会真正实现,直接选举的成果才会得到保持和巩固。     

关于犯罪既遂的再探讨

对犯罪既遂的界定 ,“构成要件说”主张的构成要件齐备是主客观的辩证统一 ,避免了“犯罪目的说”与“犯罪结果说”的片面性。构成要件说是以犯罪构成理论为基础 ,使犯罪构成理论和故意犯罪停止形态理论得到有机结合 ,能适用于所有的故意犯罪。针对其缺陷 ,修正后的构成要件说又消除了其与犯罪构成理论的不够协调 ,将犯罪成立等同于犯罪既遂的缺陷。     

In defense of criminal defense expenditures and plea bargaining

Given the continuing controversy over defendants' buying justice through defense expenditures, this paper shows that disparities in criminal defense expenditures can insure that it is the guilty and not the innocent who will be punished. Our model allows defense and prosecution expenditures to be simultaneously determined. We show that criminal defense expenditures result in lower expected penalties for the innocent at trial and that they helo ensure that plea bargaining efficiently screens defendants even when differential risk aversion is present. Finally, we examine how differences in defendant's wealth and the use of public defenders affect the legal system's ability to differentiate the innocent from the guilty.
