"Cold-case investigation": What generates ratings on television almost appears in this case to be an attempt to use force to assess facts and witness statements exclusively to the disadvantage of the accused instead of weighing them up objectively. Although there is still no body and the circumstances of the disappearance in the Elisabeth missing persons case are completely unexplained, suspicions by the family of the missing person and in some cases dubious witness statements were enough to have the accused remanded in custody again 15 years after the alleged crime. Only a courageous judge and jury put an end to the nightmare.

Various types of pirates have existed throughout history, reflecting the social circumstances of their times. The product of international politics among maritime powers, they were more than merely outlaws who disturbed maritime trade, threatened the safety of shipping and committed brutal crimes. They have occasionally served as a proxy of state power or as resistance to oppressive state authority and exploitative social structures. Pirates were also an outcry for freedom against oppressive authority and brutal violence in the maritime world. Despite their social and historical context, however, the nature of pirates has remained unchanged: They are brutal and heinous criminals who plunder ships and inflict terrifying violence at sea.

In "The Pendulum and Other Poems," J. Philip Goldberg presents his thoughts about life, nature, philosophy, and the workings of the human mind using the conventions and standards of a variety of poetic styles. He takes us through his unique perspective on history, his observations of society, imitations in honor of masterful poets of the past, and ruminations on man's struggle with nature. The poems range from appreciative praise of a talented singer to a lament of the fire at Notre Dame Cathedral, with jaunts into the past and lyrical musings on the meaning of life and the coming of death, as well as humorous observations on the ironic hypocrisies of the modern world. A poignant assessment of life from one who has lived long and well.
