38 (Criminal Code, 1992). The review board or the court determines whether the accused’s case is an absolute discharge, conditional discharge or an accused person is held in psychiatric facility under section 672.54 of the Criminal Code (Criminal Code, 2014). Absolute discharge is when the accused is found guilty but there is no conviction and no conditions. Whereas conditional discharge is when the accused is given conditions to follow (Verdun-Jones, 2015). The accused must not been a major…

It found further that Ms Van Dyke made out a ‘compelling’ case of detrimental reliance. The Court reasoned that it was unlikely, as ‘a matter of the probabilities of human behaviour’ that Ms Van Dyke would have devoted herself to the appellant and exerted herself over the period of eight and a half years were it not for Mr Sidhu’s promises. Moreover, it did not matter whether or not the promises were the…
Pg 643: Systems that provide CDS come in three basic varieties: 1) they may use information about the current clinical context to retrieve highly relevant online documents, as with so-called “infobuttons”; they may provide patient-specific, situation-specific alerts, reminders, physician order sets, or other recommendations for direct action; or 3) they may organize and present information in a way that facilitates problem solving and decision making, as in dashboards, graphical displays,…
PART III Section 8 Best Medical Practice “Best Medical Practice” is not what the ordinary person would intuit, the best treatment for an individual in a particular context. Instead it is the linking of a standardized “Treatment” with a “Diagnosis.” Thus, the concept of “diagnosis” is reified, considered to be a “thing itself”, rather than a general description of a variable constellation of symptoms and signs. This reified (“thingified”, if you will) diagnosis is linked to an unvarying…
general consensus after several rounds of surveys. We often use another qualitative model called Cross-Impact Analysis when estimating the likelihood of a future event occurring in relation to an earlier event. For example, we could forecast conditional probability of doubling ridership on Mass Transit 20 years from now given that the gasoline price rises to $3 per gallon in seven years. Historical Analogy helps companies to forecast the life cycles of new product or services. An example could…
dollars better off than you would be if you chose to only take Box II, so it’s rational to choose two boxes. Although the dominance principle seems like a very rational decision, it is flawed because it does not regard the predictor’s decision as conditional on your method of thinking. For instance, if the predictor knew that you were a person who typically acts in a way that satisfies the dominance principle, then he will never put the million dollars in Box II because he knows you believe you…
Viewpoints, ¨That´s 1 death row inmate found to be wrongly convicted for every 7 executed.¨ In other words this quote says that around 402 death row convicts killed wrongly. (since January 1, 2018). In research conducted by Opinion Front, ¨High probability of innocent people being hanged due to human judgement error.¨. This states that many of the people being hanged are innocent. Our opponents may argue that that money may be an issue to keeping them in prison until we have definite evidence to…
They explain why morality is not a good precursor for setting laws because of the erratics of social understanding. They point out the advantages of employing moral precepts yet, it is flawed as they explain and so they attack this flaw. Using a conditional they state that in a democratic society it is within the people's interests to set laws according to their shared beliefs. It seems rather contradicting to make that claim since earlier they stated that it is impossible to align the views…
1. INTRODUCTION ESTIMATING AUTO INSURANCE PREMIUM USING GENERALISED LINEAR MODELS 1.1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION AND PROBLEM STATEMEENT The basic role of insurance is to pool fortuitous losses together, provide financial protection, offering a means of transferring the risk of losses in exchange of an insurance premium. Insured’s pose varying level of risks to an insurer. It is rational that the rates charged correspond to individual risk levels. The non-uniform rates charged…
