Justice in the Age of Judgment
From Amanda Knox to O.J., Casey Anthony to Kyle Rittenhouse, our justice system faces scrutiny and pressure from the media and public like never before. Can the bedrock of “innocent until proven guilty” survive in what acclaimed Seattle attorney and legal analyst Anne Bremner calls the age of judgement? When unscrupulous Italian prosecutors waged an all-out war in the media and courtroom to wrongly convict American exchange student Amanda Knox for a murder she didn’t commit, family and friends turned to renowned Seattle attorney and media legal analyst Anne Bremner to help win her freedom. The case was dubbed the “trial of the decade” and would coincide with the explosion of social media and a new era of trying cases in public as much as the courtroom. While Italian prosecutors, the press, and online lynch mobs convicted Knox in the court of public opinion, Bremner would draw upon her decades in the courtroom and in front of the camera to turn the tide with a new kind of defense in pursuit of justice.

Self-Learning Mastery
Learning things on your own isn’t hard. You’ve just been doing it wrong. Want to get it right? Here’s how… After years of standard education, you may think that you could acquire or hone skills the way you did there. Unfortunately, you may be mistaken. That’s because standard education taught you how to pass tests. But it didn’t teach you how to think. It didn’t teach you the tips and tricks to actually retain what you’ve read or written in all those years. It didn’t teach you how to dive into the waters of your interests and arise fully transformed with newfound knowledge that actually stuck. How many times have you been excited to share something you read, only to have the concepts slip away from you like an elusive morning mist? How many times have you taken copious notes at each lecture or meeting, only to end up looking down at disorganized handful of scribbles in your hand? Being thrilled to learn something new is natural. Unfortunately, so is forgetting. The scientifically plotted rate at which you’re expected to do this is called the Forgetting Curve. It is the increasing rate at which we lose information once we don’t make the effort to retain it.
