"The Anne Burnett School of Medicine at Texas Christian University opened its doors in July 2019, becoming the first new medical school in Fort Worth in 50 years. The inaugural class of 60 students hailed from across the country, drawn by the promise of a new standard of medical education that emphasizes the whole person. From day one, TCU's MD students learned both the art and science of medicine as Empathetic Scholars. To better understand the medical school and its innovative vision for patient care, TCU Magazine followed six of the inaugural students through their four-year journeys. Writer Lisa Martin spent hundreds of hours conducting interviews and observing all six both in the classroom and in clinical settings as they not only faced the typical challenges of medical school, but also unique ones born out of the Covid-19 pandemic that struck during the students' first year. As they worked toward their medical degrees, Ive Mota Avila, Edmundo Esparza, Charna Kinard, Jonas Kruse, Quinn Losefsky and Dilan Sunil Shah grew as people and in their profession. A hospital shift might bring doubt, delight and death in the span of an hour, but the students became adept at navigating it all, including their own fears and emotions"--

A collection of poems spanning over twenty years of love, of life and of loss

Sarah's life was in turmoil. Haunted by memories of the past and plagued by an abusive husband who takes pleasure in her pain. Sarah fights for survival. Her only escape is in the memories she documented within the covers of a faded leather bound journal.

It was supposed to be a joyful event. A twenty-year reunion which started out as a time of reminiscing turned the lives of a group of old classmates upside down when the frivolities of the party gave way to lies, secrets and a string of murders. The killer ran free and the group would never be the same. After three years of the murders having gone unsolved a reporter from the west coast arrived to research the cold case, and in doing so perhaps finding the killer. That would be easier said than done, and in her investigation, she would learn that there was more to the story than anyone had dared mention. What you don't know, could kill you.

Die steuerstrafrechtliche Selbstanzeige gewährt dem Steuerstraftäter Straffreiheit, obwohl die Tat bereits vollendet ist. Von den Kritikern wird moniert, dass die Selbstanzeige immer dann Hochkonjunktur habe, wenn über die Presse der Ankauf einer neuen Steuerdaten-CD bekannt werde. Der Gesetzgeber hat im Laufe der Jahre die Voraussetzungen an eine wirksame Selbstanzeige immer weiter verschärft. Dennoch hat er sich für die Beibehaltung der Selbstanzeige entschieden.Die Autorin beschäftigt sich in ihrer Dissertation mit den Gründen für die Existenz der steuerstrafrechtlichen Selbstanzeige und stellt auf der Grundlage eines Vergleichs der deutschen mit der britischen Selbstanzeigeregelung die Frage, ob es einer einheitlichen europäischen Selbstanzeigeregelung bedarf, um Steuerhinterziehung in der Europäischen Union wirksam bekämpfen zu können.
