Do Intoxicated Offenders Deserve Harsher Sentences? Questioning Veritas in Vino

Journal of Social Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Criminal courts increasingly treat intoxication as an aggravating rather than a mitigating factor in sentencing. This shift, seen in Australian law and other jurisdictions, raises the prospect of unjust outcomes. We examine this trend through the lens of desert‐based justifications for punishment, setting aside questions of deterrence and ...

Vapothermal curing of hemp shives: Influence on some chemical and physical properties

Industrial Crops and Products, 2021
Abstract In a perspective of a sustainable development, a new generation of construction materials based on renewable plant resources has emerged to face environmental issues. However, the formulation of structural vegetal concretes (based on plant aggregates, a mineral binder and water) requires to enhance the compatibility of plant aggregates and ...

Beneficial Role of Natural Polyphenols Against Epilepsy: Greasing the Wheels of Pharmacotherapy Research for Epilepsy

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Epilepsy is the most disabling neurological disease that affects all economic classes, age groups, regions, and races. Although many antiseizure drugs are approved for epilepsy treatment, they fail to work in about 30%–40% of patients. Thus, there is a great need to identify better pharmacological agents to treat epilepsy.

Manufacturing and characterisation of thermoplastic composite of hemp shives and recycled expanded polystyrene [PDF]

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2017
There are two main problems caused by the huge volume of expanded polystyrene (Styrofoam) waste: the large amount of space that would be needed if it were to be disposed of in landfills and the excessive transport cost if it were to be recycled or incinerated. Consequently, the solution to these problems is the execution of two processes: the first one

The Preparation of a Carbonaceous Adsorbent via Batch Pyrolysis of Waste Hemp Shives

Energies, 2023
The study focuses on the two-stage process of the thermal treatment of waste hemp shives aimed at obtaining a carbonaceous adsorbent. In the first stage, pyrolysis was carried out in a retort apparatus, which, at temperatures in the range of 450–850 °C, provided approximately 22.6–29.9% of the solid residue, 31.6–34.0% of the condensate, and 38.5–43.4%
