[American Football Near The 20 Yard Line]As you sit down to watch the Dallas Cowboys play the Detroit Lions on “Monday Night Football” this evening, what you may not know is that a change may just be coming to NFL’s characteristically rigid stance when it comes to medical marijuana.  Read on to find out the exciting news that could be the first step towards acceptance by the NFL of cannabis as a safe option for pain and Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE).

NFL CHANGE OF HEART ABOUT CANNABIS?

On November 9th, the National Football League Players’ Association (NFLPA) announced that it will be “actively studying” the benefits of medical cannabis for players as a tool for managing pain. The announcement came just days after the election, although apparently the NFLPA had been considering launching their investigation long before results (in which eight states changed their laws concerning cannabis) had come in.

According to the Washington Post, the NFLPA will form a committee to take a serious look at the “use of marijuana as a pain-management mechanism, among other things.” Based on[bigstock-133560779] these findings, the union may decide to promote lifting the ban on cannabis for players in the league. Doing so may be difficult as long as cannabis remains on the “Schedule 1” list at the federal level, however. And what makes it more tricky is that in order for any policy changes to occur regarding marijuana both the NFL and NFLPA have to be in agreement.

“Marijuana is still governed by our collective bargaining agreement,” NFLPA’s George Atallah told the Washington Post on November 9th. “And while some states have moved in a more progressive direction, that fact still remains.”

PLAYERS CONTINUE TO SUFFER UNDER CANNABIS BAN

There is no denying that professional football players, perhaps more than any other athlete, put a lot on the line in terms of their health in order to play in the major leagues.

The feature film Concussion, starring Will Smith as Dr. Bennet Omalu, put both the devastating side effects and the prevalence of head injuries within the NFL in the forefront of the American consciousness when it hit theatres in 2015, although retired players have been displaying neurological side effects for years. Thanks to Dr. Omalu, however, these once [A football helmet and doctors hand holding a stethoscope on the]mysterious side effects now have a name: CHRONIC TRAUMATIC ENCEPHALOPATH, or CTE. An in-depth report about CTE and how cannabis may help with this condition can be found in a previous UPG article HERE.

Another huge issue for players is, sadly, pain. A 2011 Washington University study found that retired NFL players are “four times more likely to abuse prescription painkillers than the general population. It also found that more than half of the players who used pain meds while playing football went on to abuse them after retirement. Some of the dozens of the sometimes highly-addictive, toxic prescription pain medications that are routinely prescribed to players include Hydrocodone, Vicodin, Percocet, Toradol, and Celebrex, just to name a few.

NFL PLAYERS PRESSURE FOR REFORM

One outspoken former player who shared his story as part of a panel discussion at the 2016 United Patients Group Conference and in a live interview in August was Brandon Haw.

“After football, I had a lot of different problems with brain trauma,” admits Haw, who described himself as “happy go lucky” and fairly even-keel prior to the onset of CTE. “…I considered [then] what was happening to me as getting ‘tougher’ but maybe I was angrier inside, more inconsistent, more violent, very depressed at times, and more uncontrollable.”

Haw began using a moderate amount of medical cannabis and gradually noticed big improvements in his behavior. Eventually he went on to attend Oaksterdam University in Oakland, California, an institution dedicated to all aspects of medical marijuana education, from growing to extracting to specific medicinal uses.

“A lot of people smoke to get high,” says Haw. “I smoke to be myself.”

Players, both retired and active, are pushing harder than ever these days for cannabis reform within the National Football League. In fact, just three weeks after the NFLPA made their[Football Player running out of the Stadium Tunnel] announcement, there was word that Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Seantrel Henderson, who uses medical cannabis for severe Crohn’s Disease, may appeal a 10-game suspension for “substance abuse.” If the NFL denies his appeal, he may take them to court. Henderson underwent surgery in January to remove two and a half feet of his colon and another in April to reattach his intestines.

“Merciful or not, there is no medical exception that the NFL will accept,” Henderson’s agent Brian Fettner said in an interview with ESPN. “ It doesn’t matter that Seantrel is battling Crohn’s disease, and has had his intestines outside his body…if you digest the cannabis, that’s it.”

Still, the NFLPA’s decision could be a sign of the times. Last month, Arkansas, North Dakota and Florida voted to allow medical marijuana while three more (California, Nevada and Massachusetts) passed laws making it legal for recreational use as well.  It could be that pressure from both football fans and NFL players alike is finally paying off.

answer: Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Seantrel Henderson, who uses medical cannabis for severe Crohn's disease, was appealing a 10- game suspension for “substance abuse.” Frankly, he might take the NFL to court. Henderson underwent surgery in January to remove two and a half feet of his colon and another in April to reattach his intestines. He's battling Crohn's disease, an inflammatory bowel disease. The leg pain it caused him was excruciating. He claims cannabis helped with his disorientation and anxiety. The NFL is merciful, but still denies to lift the ban because Henderson's drug ingestion was via digestive tract.

When he awoke, he came to a sudden realization.

This isn't my bed. I'm not in my home. I don't know this person laying beside me. This hand doesn't belong to me, although it seems that I control it.

He awoke terrified.

The air crept out of his lungs, and try as he might, it wouldn't draw back in. He started shuffling back up the bed, back against the headboard. Where was his breath? Why did the air taste so... unfamiliar?

He had woken up like this every day for the last year.

His wife woke up beside him, her eyes bleary, dark circles under them. She hardly slept, because he hardly slept. She knew better than to try to reach out to him. He hadn't let her for a year.

At first she tried to calm him. "I'm Juilie," she would say "your wife. I love you."

"You're not Julie," he would say "Julie is blonde... well I know you're blonde, but you're not her blonde. Her voice is like yours, but its not yours. I mean, you're like Julie, but you're not Julie. I know Julie. I love her, and you're not her."

And through the day, she would walk him through their home, where they had lived for almost a decade. It was their first home, their daughter Anna's room was upstairs. The tiles were the same. She would show him mail with his name, and her name, and show him how it arrived in the mailbox each day fresh, and with their names on it. He would concede that all of the facts were the same. The address, the names, the colors, the ages. But he wouldn't believe it. Not for a second. This life wasn't his, but he couldn't remember where he'd placed his own.

His anxiety over the matter kept him (and her) awake, day after day, until he collapsed from the exhaustion of trying to figure out where everything had gone. Somehow though, he never came to believe that it was a conspiracy, that his life had been replaced. He always seemed to have an awareness that somehow he was mistaken. As though, perhaps, he'd come through some curious means that remained shrouded in a confused memory, to be in this place. Where the people claimed to know him, even if he didn't know them. He knew that he couldn't remember a huge portion of his life. The present, for him, lacked a history. He knew the answer was in that history, but without it, without the story, all he had was the certainty that this wasn't his life. And how could it be? It didn't feel at all like it. It didn't feel warm. It didn't feel familiar.

But then, nothing did. Warm sun on the skin felt kind, and soothing. But it felt like moonlight. Something about it made it not the sun of memory. It didn't feel like his sun. The air didn't feel like his air. His hands didn't feel like his hands. Nothing felt right. And he worried. Even the worries felt as though they came from outside. As certain as he was about them, they didn't seem like his concern. There is worry, therefore I am, I worry.

And this is what kept him from fleeing, from being paranoid, or angry. His fears seemed unfounded, because he didn't recognize them as his own. All he feels is lost. Like he has fallen asleep on a bus, and at last shaken awake by the driver, found himself alone on a dark lit street. Around are the objects of his own landscape -light poles, parked cars, buildings, people. And he knows that home lies on that bus route. But for now the line is closed, and he will have to wait until morning. For now, he spends the night in the company of strangers, in a place that's not his home. Nothing to do but wait for the clarity of morning, when an opportunity will present itself, and offer to fill in the missing information that would make it all make sense.

And so he waits. He thinks this woman knows how lost he is, maybe she's claiming to be Julie to save him from some hurt. She seems kind. She tries very hard. But she's not Julie, because he knows Julie.

It's been this way for a year.

He's in the garden. It's springtime. He likes it in the garden. Out of the places to be lost in, it is certainly the best. It's warm, and the flowers are beautiful, vibrant, and smell wonderful. He doesn't recognize the species that are here. He thinks it looks the way his garden used to. He'd tend to it while Anna slept in her basket, shaded from the sun. Never out of ear shot.

There's a small bird on the ground. An infant. Fallen from a high tree branch. It struggles as he picks it up, but it doesn't resist, just goes through the motions. It's been here for a while. It's dehydrated. It struggles for air. But it's just going through the motions.

He strokes its tiny head. It stops struggling.

His head spins. Anna.

He falls to his knees as the air fills his lungs in a deep, desperate gasp. This breath feels familiar. He knows this breath. And it burns. Ohh god how it swells in his chest. How it hurts. But he knows this breath.

This breath of fresh air.

I took another breath. The electronic display read zero. I looked at the display not believing what it claimed. I looked outside the dome. The red clouds blanketed the sky covering the sun and the desert soil. I looked back inside, wondering how people lived fifty years ago at the turn of the millennium.

The phone which hung on the wall started to ring. I had never heard it ring before so I stared subconsciously before I remembered that I had to answer it. I walked over to the handset. The light blinked as the receiver stopped ringing.
The door flung open and two cops burst through the door.

‘Mr Collins?’ I looked at the guard.

‘Who’s asking?’ I replied.

The guards walked over, hooked me in both arms and dragged me down the hall after slamming the door while muttering something into his radio.

I looked the opposite way I was travelling as I skidded along. It was an odd sensation knowing that my life would end. The cold argon lights illuminated the room giving off a cold chill. I wondered who had invented them. The ability to turn heat into light whilst cooling the surrounding area had saved millions of lives, allowing a colony to keep cool without a power source.

We rounded several corners before we stopped. The guards dropped me to the ground and walked back the way I had come, closing two big doors behind them. I saw the gears and mechanisms on the door rotate and grind and I realised there was no way I was going back that way.

I stood up and brushed myself off. I had not collected a speck of dust because of the cleanliness of the corridor, but I still proceeded to nonetheless. I turned around to find a desk with a shorter man sitting in a black chair obviously too big for him.

‘Do you know why you’re here?’ He asked me.

‘Not really.’ I responded knowing full well why I was there.

‘Mr John Collins, born January 19th 2024, which makes you 32 as of 53 days ago, you were a model student, scoring an average score of a B+. We have no behavioural issues on record but a warning was issued in regards to a threat made to a colleague. You are an automotive service technician and you have no known offspring.’ He looked up and glared at me, waiting for a response.

‘Correct’ I responded.

‘On behalf of CiteRT, we are terminating your life on the grounds that you have expired your oxygen and water allowance without giving back to the community,’ I looked at his emotionless face. There was only the harsh truth of what lay beyond. ‘We are however offering you the opportunity to attempt to survive outside.’

I looked outside the window behind him. I looked off into the distance, beyond the cloudless, blue skies. Beyond the dirt mounds I could see nothing.

‘I accept.’ I don’t know why I did; it was just prolonging my agony. He stood up and handed me a backpack.

‘I’m sorry.’ He said. ‘Good luck.’ I saw the glint of a tear forming in my eye. He ushered me towards an elevator where I went further down than I ever had before. The elevator pinged as the doors opened and thousands of years of global warming hit my face in one blast.

I fell to one knee and opened my backpack to find a bottle of water and a gun. I put the gun to my head, and heard a gunshot behind me.
BANG! I turned…

Following our commitment to ship new versions at a fast pace, I’m thrilled to announce the availability of UWP Community Toolkit 1.2. If you want to get a first glance, you can install the UWP Community Toolkit Sample App directly from the Windows Store.

-   The focus of this version was to stabilize current features while adding the most wanted ones that were missing. A full list of features and changes is available in the release notes. Here’s a quick preview:

-   NEW HELPERS. we worked on providing 7 new helpers to help with everyday tasks:
    -   BACKGROUNDTASKHELPER to help you work with background tasks
    -   HTTPHELPER to help you deal with HTTP requests in a secure and reliable way
    -   PRINTHELPER to help you print XAML controls
    -   DISPACHERHELPER to help you work with tasks that need to run on UI thread
    -   DEEPLINKHELPER to simplify the management of your deep links
    -   WEBVIEWEXTENSIONS to allow you to bind HTML content to your Webview
    -   SYSTEMINFORMATION to gather all system information into a single and unique class
-   NEW CONTROLS
    -   We introduced a new control named MasterDetailView that helps developers create master/detail user experiences

[controls-masterdetailsview]

-   UPDATES. We updated the following features:
    -   IMAGECACHE was improved to provide a more robust cache
    -   HEADEREDTEXTBLOCK and PULLTOREFRESHLISTVIEW now accept ContentTemplate customization
    -   FACEBOOK SERVICE now supports paging when requesting data
    -   RENAMED BLADECONTROL TO BLADEVIEW. BladeView now also derives from ItemsControl. This will allow for more common convention like data binding and will make the control aligned with SDK naming. To guarantee backward compatibility, we kept the previous control and flagged it as obsolete. This way, developers can still reference the new version and everything will work just fine. A compiler warning will just encourage you to use the new version. The current plan is to keep obsolete classes until next major version and then remove them.

We saw an increasing number of contributions from the community of 48 developers that led to several new features and improvements. We also observed some healthy dialogue about what should be include or not in the toolkit, architecture best practices, and feature prioritization that is going drive even higher quality of the toolkit.

For example, I would like to share the story behind the MasterDetailView. The story began with an issue created on the GitHub repo: “We need a MasterDetailView.” Immediately, the community reacted with  tremendous energy, discussing the implementation details, features wanted and the philosophy behind the control. We even ended up with two different implementations at some point (the community then voted and discussed to define which best fit with the toolkit principles). If you want to understand how a united community can create wonderful code, I encourage you to read this thread.

You can find the roadmap of the next release here.

If you have any feedback or if you’re interested in contributing, see you on GitHub!

Fifteen days after the collapse, the remaining miners aboveground had given up hope, for themselves and for their trapped compatriots. Operations planetside had ground to a halt as they frantically sought to excavate the miners left five miles below the surface of the planet, but with no minerals coming in -- the combined talent of the prospecting team was stuck below as well, so new shafts could not be dug -- the Jobarsky corporation's outpost on barren Iagma could only sustain their drilling for three more days.

The peculiar astronomy of Iagma meant that this part of the planet would go dark shortly afterwards, and stay that way for weeks -- a mere claw of darkness clutching at the life trespassing here. After a respite of four more sunlit days, the long sleek carapace of polar winter, a years-long veil, would come upon the miners in full force, exacting the full sentence for their crime; they were Hypnos and Thanatos, respectively.

An evacuation would come in the days after the first darkness, Hypnos, and take all the miners it could with it. However, the orbital vessel, whose between-voyage life support systems ran on solar energy, could egress its orbit of Iagma no later than the start of Thanatos, or it would not escape the penumbra of Iagma until too late, and the miners would freeze inside their ship.

On the sixteenth day, one of the engineers at the outpost proposed, out of desperation, loading a few of the prospectors from the backup consciousness database, something only done in the case of death to consult the deceased on their wishes -- otherwise, the backup consciousnesses went straight to the renewal labs. The machines could simulate homeostatic conditions on the brain and the interactions of neurons, though in the process, altering the conscious state of the stored persona; when the deceased was restored, the simulated stimulation of their brain would be committed to memory as if it had happened. The experience of almost complete olfactory and tactile sensory deprivation [those two senses required too much computing power to simulate in real time] could prove traumatic to the individual being restored, when recalling the memory. But at a time like this, the risk, though more present than usual, had to be overlooked.

The prospectors were loaded and simulated, and given the data they needed; within the hour, the digging equipment was being redirected to mineral and gas-rich deposits in the rocks of Iagma. One day after that, the outpost had enough fuel to sustain the miners and their life support throughout Hypnos.

Far below the surface of the planet -- five miles below -- the coleopteromorphs work tirelessly to prepare for the long winter. Winter, however, is not so much a measure of whether it is warm or cold, light or dark; it is always warm and always dark. But the blood of the coleopteromorphs remembers a time when fearsome dromaiforms roamed the surface, and every winter, the coleopteromorphs would come to the surface and confront the dromaiforms, biting and pincing and slashing and being kicked and crushed, until chitin and bone laid in great heaps upon the landscape, and the soft insides of both animals seeped into the cool dirt.

Now, the last of the dromaiforms has vanished. Dirt has turned to crumbling clay and rocks, and all that remain are the hard shells and the skeletons, relics of battles fought too long ago. Only the blood remembers, and boils over every winter; coleopteromorphs turn on one another and skirmish, nay, wage war over the meagerest of resources. Workers furiously gather old bone, to be incorporated into the diets of the warriors, so that their shells grow strong.

With the collapse of the tunnels, and the trapping of the workers and their gathered bone on the other side, this colony of coleopteromorphs would be destroyed in the coming winter: no bone, weak shells; weak shells, weak warriors; weak warriors, we are destroyed.

However, some of the aliens were trapped inside our tunnels during the collapse, and upon dissection of one of their dead, we determined that they indeed possess bone. It is, therefore, in our interests to keep them alive and breed them. If this fails, we may need to replicate them by other means. This should not be necessary.

Upon each alien specimen's death, the bones will be collected and incorporated into the warrior diets -- the number of dead we have found in the collapse should suffice for our survival throughout the long winter, and extensive population of our colony with these creatures should serve to create a sustainable form of chitin mineralization. We will resume digging in the summer. There will be no rescue until this time. Repeat: there will be no rescue.

Late day seventeen, a security officer found a tunnel leading downwards into the planet. An investigative team was deployed and found that the tunnel had caved in, similarly to the mineshaft more than a fortnight earlier. More importantly, a great number of the insectoid creatures known to inhabit the depths of the planet were found in this tunnel, some of which were still alive. Two of these creatures were, after a brief scuffle which eventually involved the use of the morphine one of the medical officers on the investigative team was carrying, taken back to the outpost for analysis. No living specimens had been produced before this time.

Early day eighteen, the sun had almost set. The result of the analysis was that these insectoids, incredibly enough, produced hydrocarbons resembling fuel in the presence of excess food. These hydrocarbons could be extracted without killing the creature, so it was in the mining team's best interest to capture these creatures, keep them alive, and breed them. If this had failed, they may have needed to replicate them through genetic sampling and DNA recombination. This was not necessary.

These alien specimens would go on to be used as a renewable fuel source for the Jobarsky mining corporation, deployable on any planet with a thin atmosphere, rocky soil, and cool temperatures. The number of these insectoids they were able to recover was sufficient to provide auxiliary heating and lighting throughout Hypnos. A more extensive population of other planets with these creatures could nearly match the fuel production of a Jobarsky team, which would continue their mining operations in the Iagman summer. There could be and would be no rescue for the trapped miners until this time. Repeat: there would be no rescue.

title: Harvest Interruption

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What does the text say about the planet Iagma?

answer: Iagma has a peculiar astronomy because one side is made up of endless day, another endless light. It will stay that way for weeks. The carapace of polar winter will come next, lasting a full year. The mining outpost will see a respite of four more sunlit days before the long winter.

answer: The prospectors on Iagma were mining for minerals that made up everything from fiber optics to semiconductors.

text: Fails to answer the question

refinement: Iagma has peculiar astronomy because one side is made up of an endless day, another endless light. It will stay that way for weeks. The carapace of polar winter will come next, lasting a full year. The mining outpost will see a respite of four more sunlit days before the long winter.

answer: Iagma is a barren planet with a long dark winter following a brief sunlit period. It is impossible to escape from this planet without leaving during the sunlit period or using insectoid creatures as fuel. The trapped miners will die unless rescued by summer.

answer: Iagma is barren, cold, dark, and has limited resources. Through serendipitous scientific and technological discoveries, the mining team was able to save themselves from certain death.

text: This does not fully answer the question

refinement: Iagma has peculiar astronomy because one side is made up of an endless day, another endless light. It will stay that way for weeks. The carapace of polar winter will come next, lasting a full year. The mining outpost will see a respite of four more sunlit days before the long winter.

answer: Iagma is rich in mineral and gas deposits, which the Jobarsky corporation mine to produce fuel. The planet has a peculiar astronomy such that it enters a dark period which lasts a few weeks, known as Hypnos, then has 4 days of light, and finally goes through a years-long dark period called Thanatos. The planet has two native species: the coleopteromorphs and the dromaiforms. The dromaiforms however went extinct sometime before the story started.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What does the text say about the miners' backup consciousness database?

answer: Unfortunately, the first use of it was in a time when it was required, when one of the engineers at the outpost proposed it because they were in sheer desperation. The database was only used to recreate the workers who had died and were trapped so they could assist the team through simulations. This point was important to consider, because it could be glimpsed at the wealth of information stored in the database and the usefulness of it. It could also be said that this database had immense hidden power.

text: Clumsy sentence

refinement: An engineer proposed the use of the backup because they were desperate for fuel. The database was only used to recreate the workers who had died and were trapped so they could assist the team through simulations. This point was important to consider because it could be glimpsed at the wealth of information stored in the database and the usefulness of it. It could also be said that this database had immense hidden power.

text: This is very difficult to understand

refinement: his database is typically used when someone has died to consult the deceased on their wishes. However, in the case of the stranded miners, the backup consciousnesses were loaded and simulated to help save the trapped miners. The simulated stimulation of their brain would be committed to memory as if it had actually happened.

answer: A backup consciousness is a digital copy of the person's mind that has been created when they died. It's used to depict what the person would say if they were still alive. Only one or two miners are loaded onto the mine's server. The mind simulation is used to dig their way out.

answer: This database is typically used when someone has died to consult the deceased on their wishes. However, in the case of the stranded miners, the backup consciousnesses were loaded and simulated to help save the trapped miners. The simulated stimulation of their brain would be committed to memory as if it had actually happened.

answer: The backup consciousness database is used to simulate the condition of the miners trapped underground and help rescue them from their predicament.

text: A little confusing

refinement: The backup consciousness database is used to tap the memories of dead miners so that they can help to rescue miners trapped underground.

answer: The miners are apparently able to load people's consciousnesses from the backup consciousness database in order to consult with them; this is normally only done to ask about their wishes. Otherwise, the consciousnesses are sent straight to the renewal labs. The machine which loads a consciousness simulates homeostatic conditions for the brain, but it cannot simulate olfactory or tactile sensory information, and recalling that form of sensory deprivation can be traumatic for the person being consulted.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What does the text say about the coleopteromorphs?

answer: It is mentioned that the coleopteromorphs "are created by two aliens, a queen and a drone," and they were left to work on Iagma after the aliens' exodus.

text: Wholly inaccurate

refinement: The coleopteromorphs live below the surface of Iagma. They used to fight each winter with the dromaiforms, but since the dromaiforms have gone extinct, they fight among themselves instead. To prepare for the fighting, they strengthen their chitin shells by consuming bone. To this end, the coleopteromorphs decide to breed humans to consume their bones, which implies the coleopteromorphs are fairly intelligent. In addition, the coleopteromorphs produce hydrocarbons which the human miners realize can be made into fuel.

answer: The coleopteromorphs lives below the surface and only come out for the winter, when they fight savagely with a species called dromaiforms over scarce food. The coleopteromorphs live in large colonies but are few, unlike the dromaiforms. The coleopteromorphs fight to the death in order for the winners to use their bones for weapons and reinforcements for their fighters. With the tunnels closed, the coleopteromorphs would starve this summer and winter due to lack of resources.

answer: The text says that the coleopteromorphs are living creatures capable of producing hydrocarbons resembling fuel in the presence of excess food. The coleopteromorphs' ability to produce hydrocarbons will allow the Jobarsky mining corporation to continue their operations on the planet of Iagma during the winter.

            My scalpel sliced neatly through, completing the first incision. As I gently lifted the flap of skin back, I admired the fragility and solidity of the skull. How could something so dull possibly reveal the beautiful secrets of the organ it housed? I stood aside as the secondary surgeon drilled through the skull. “Which hemisphere did you say I was supposed to remove?” I joked. One of the interns laughed too hard. Ass kisser.
            “The hemispherectomy went well enough,” I told the parents. “If all goes well, little Tyler should be able to walk and talk a little in about a week.” The look of joy on the parents’ faces should have warmed my heart. Any other surgeon would have succumbed and allowed themselves a grin. I know how I’m supposed to act, and so I feigned a smile, then turned and returned to my office.
            I reviewed the logs and tape from the surgery, before packing it up and handing it to an intern to give to the dean.
            As I drove home, I wondered if Noah had received the body. I thought back to when I first met Noah. The psycho had been at a bar, where I had only gone to have one drink before going home. He had started ranting about how he was going to burn the entire world down one day. The bartender then made the biggest mistake a bartender can make, and cut the poor bastard off. Noah then had started to bawl his eyes out, and started apologizing to thin air. Something about “why’d I help ‘em?”
            The bartender said he was going to call a taxi, but Noah had mumbled something about not having any cash. Before the bartender said anything else, I volunteered to take him home. That sentence seemed to aggravate Noah even more. “Fuck homes!” he had yelled. I asked him whether he had a place to stay. “Yeah, but that shithole’ll never be a fucking home” he growled. “Does this shithole have an address?” I remember saying.
            Over the course of the following week, Noah and I became closer. “So Doc,” he would say, “I got this fucking twinge in my neck, ya think ya could check it out?” I would gently remind his that I was a neurosurgeon.
            I discovered Noah’s “little secret” two weeks after the night in the bar. Noah had come to the hospital with a broken arm, and it was my day for clinic rounds. I remember sitting awkwardly in the room with Noah for a minute before Noah chuckled and said, “That file probably has it all in there right?” Seeing the confused look on my face, he said, “Why don’t I just tell ya, I’d rather ya hear it from me.”
            He then proceeded to tell me everything. About how he posed as a lawyer to seem normal, but how he was actually a murderer and an arsonist And about how he spent all his money on booze and accelerant. “Well actually, Bellua’s the murderer, I just burn shit,” he clarified. I had no idea who this “Bellua” was, but I didn’t care anymore. This was just too messed up.
            Yes, technically I’m a murderer, but not to this psycho’s extent. I’ve only ever killed for other people’s benefit. There was the time I prescribed a double dosage of Luvox to a patient who I knew had been skimming money from the school district, and that other time when I had tampered with the drill before surgery to kill a corrupt judge on the table; but these had all been for the good of society.
            I didn’t tell Noah any of this, I simply pretended he was joking, although I knew he wasn’t, and proceeded to call a nurse in to set his arm.
            Later, I called Noah and told him how I was a murderer too. I realized Noah had provided a golden opportunity to kill and not risk being caught at work. I proposed that I kill, and Noah dispose of the body’s. Noah agreed, and said that whenever I kill something, I should bring it to his house, and leave it somewhere no one else would see it, he would find it.
            This had been my first kill I was going to share with Noah. I had sliced a corrupt policeman across the throat, and let him bleed out on Noah lawn. Then, I covered the body with a hot tub cover, and left.

question: Why does the narrator have to feign a smile when he tells the parents the boy will live?

answer: The narrator is not happy about having to tell the parents that their child will live, as he knows that the boy will never be able to lead a normal life. He is pretending to be happy for the parents' sake, as he knows that they will be overjoyed to hear that their child will survive.

text: The statement that the boy will never be able to lead a normal life is unattested.

refinement: He is pretending to be happy for the parents' sake, as he knows that they will be overjoyed to hear that their child will survive.

text: While it is true that he is pretending to be happy, this answer misses the subtext that this character is not genuinely happy because he is sociopathic.

refinement: He is pretending to be happy for the parents' sake, as he knows that they will be overjoyed to hear that their child will survive. It is implied that he is sociopathic and so is merely reacting the way he believes he should react, since he is not feeling genuine emotions.

answer: The main character is incapable of feeling human emotion.

text: The answer is missing context--it still doesn't explain why he smiles in this particular situation.

refinement: The main character is incapable of feeling human emotion. He knows he is expected to be happy for the child, so he forces himself to smile.

text: "Any other surgeon would have succumbed and allowed themselves a grin. I know how I’m supposed to act, and so I feigned a smile, then turned and returned to my office" is evidence that the main character does not feel genuine human emotion.

answer: The narrator is not happy about the boy's condition.

text: While this is true, the phrasing makes it sound like he is upset that the boy has recovered.

refinement: The narrator is unable to feel emotions and so does not feel happy about the boy's condition.

text: Does not mention why he bothers to feign a smile.

refinement: The narrator is unable to feel emotions and so does not feel happy about the boy's condition. He knows he is expected to display happiness, so he fakes a smile.

answer: He is a sociopath.

text: Does not explain why he fakes a smile in this specific situation.

refinement: He is a sociopath and knows that a smile is the expected reaction in this situation.

text: "Any other surgeon would have succumbed and allowed themselves a grin. I know how I’m supposed to act, and so I feigned a smile, then turned and returned to my office" is evidence that implies the narrator is a sociopath.

question: How does the main character kill people?

answer: By deliberate medical malpractice.

text: "There was the time I prescribed a double dosage of Luvox to a patient who I knew had been skimming money from the school district, and that other time when I had tampered with the drill before surgery to kill a corrupt judge on the table" is evidence that the narrator's preferred method of killing is deliberate medical malpractice.

answer: He uses a scalpel.

text: Perhaps he uses a scalpel occasionally, although there is no evidence in the text to support this.

text: Does not explain the main method he uses, which is intentionally botching his medical procedures.

refinement: He intentionally botches the medical procedures he performs on patients.

answer: The main character kills people by slicing their throats. They then leave the body on the property of their accomplice, Noah, who disposes of it.

text: While the narrator does kill a victim in this manner, their typical modus operandi seems to be to intentionally botch medical procedures.

refinement: The main character kills people by intentionally botching medical procedures, although they do also slice the throat of one of their victims. They then leave the body on the property of their accomplice, Noah, who disposes of it.

text: How the dispose of the body is not relevant to the question.

refinement: The main character kills people by intentionally botching medical procedures, although they do also slice the throat of one of their victims.

text: "I had sliced a corrupt policeman across the throat" is evidence that the narrator has used the method of slicing a victim across the throat.

text: No answer is given.

refinement: The intentionally botch medical procedures.

question: Why does Noah blame "Bellua" for the murders?

answer: Noah has a psychotic break with reality of some kind.

text: "I had no idea who this “Bellua” was, but I didn’t care anymore" is evidence that Bellua may be a fictional entity imagined by Noah.

answer: Noah is a psychopath who has a split personality.

text: "I had no idea who this “Bellua” was, but I didn’t care anymore" is evidence that Bellua may be a fictional entity imagined by Noah.

text: No answer is given.

refinement: Bellua is implied to be an alternate personality imagined by Noah.

answer: From the passage, it seems that Noah blames "Bellua" for the murders because he believes that Bellua is the one who actually commits them. It is unclear why Noah believes this, but it is possible that he simply enjoys the thrill of knowing that he is working with a murderer.

text: While this answer is technically accurate, it fails to read between the lines that Bellua is possibly an alternate personality of Noah.

refinement: From the passage, it seems that Noah blames "Bellua" for the murders because he believes that Bellua is the one who actually commits them. It is implied that Bellua is an alternate personality of Noah.
