Globalization describes the growing economic, political, and social interconnectedness among societies throughout the world. The 2014 outbreak of Ebola in Liberia and the subsequent panic in the United

Are there additional negative impacts of globalization in terms of health? What are some potential positive
impacts, if any? How has globalization impacted any health concerns within your own family?

The defendant, angered because a rival gang member had twice beaten him up after school, obtained a heavy lead pipe and waited in a deserted alleyway which he knew the rival took as a route home every day after school. when his enemy came walking down the alley, the defendant leapt out behind him and smashed the pipe into the victim's head, knocking him to the ground. the defendant then rolled the victim over and pounded his face with 15 to 20 heavy blows with the lead pipe, killing him. the jurisdiction defines first degree murder as murder committed with premeditation and deliberation. all other murders are defined as second degree murders. why will the defendant be convicted of first degree murder (as opposed to second degree murder)?
