National Institute of Justice Funded Research Amasses Details of a Half Century of United States Mass Shootings | OPA | Department of Justice

Analysis of the database shows that persons who committed public mass shootings in the U.S. over the last half century were commonly troubled by personal trauma before the shooting, nearly always in a state of crisis at the time and, in most cases, engaged in leaking their plans before opening fire. Most were insiders of a targeted institution, such as an employee or student. Except for young school shooters who stole the guns from family members, most used legally obtained handguns in those shootings.

The study includes a discussion of demographics, motivations, warning signs and other key findings. The article is available at “Public Mass Shootings: Database Amasses Details of a Half Century of U.S. Mass Shootings with Firearms, Generating Psychosocial Histories.” The research described in this article is based on the grantee report, A Multi-Level, Multi-Method Investigation of the Psychosocial Life Histories of Mass Shooters, September 2021, by Co-Principal Investigators Jillian Peterson and James Densley.

Most vaccine-hesitant healthcare workers got COVID-19 shots, study shows – UPI.com

For the study, her team surveyed nearly 4,200 healthcare workers at Northwestern Medicine when COVID-19 vaccines became available last winter. At that time, three-quarters said they intended to take the shots. By spring, a second survey found that 95% had been vaccinated, including 90% of those who had been unsure.

Of those who initially said they didn’t plan to get vaccinated, nearly 60% had done so by spring, according to findings recently published in the journal Infection Control & Hospital Epidemiology.

The researchers said several factors likely helped change reluctant healthcare workers’ minds. They included clear messaging about vaccine safety easy access to shots at the hospital awareness that workplace mandates were on the way and emergency use authorization (EUA) of vaccines by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

French Fridays with Lupin, Omar Sy style!

Passons à la magie…         Yes!!
Let the magic begin…
 
    Wow, what an episode. This episode was basically about Assàne’s mistakes as he learned to emulate Lupin, and the mistake he makes this time when his son is taken as a hostage used as bait against him. What a horrifying ending. And what incredible cruelty and incompetence on the part of the female police officer not to check the car because she assumes that he’s lying.  And then to withhold the information because…
