TL;DR: The authors characterizes optimal criminal punishments when there are multiple interrelated crimes and finds that the actual harm reduction of a marginal increase in arrests for an index crime is on average about 1.5-3 times greater than the harm reduction calculated without these effects.
Abstract: This paper characterizes optimal criminal punishments when there are multiple interrelated crimes. Optimal punishments are functions of the extent to which related crimes are complements or substitutes weighted by their relative harms to society. The available empirical evidence on the relationship between index crimes in the United States suggests that tailoring criminal punishments properly to incorporate relationships between crimes could reduce the aggregate harm to victims by 3%, or about $8 billion dollars annually, holding enforcement expenditures fixed. The actual harm reduction of a marginal increase in arrests for an index crime is on average about 1.5-3 times greater than the harm reduction calculated without these effects.

TL;DR: This chapter focuses on the female parts of flowers, the gynoecium, and guides the reader in the development of megaspores, leading to the formation of the megagametophyte.
Abstract: As biologists, we can highly appreciate the events leading up to the formation of new generations of individuals through the process of reproduction. It is even possible to see similarities between our own human anatomical events in the process and that of flowering plants. In both cases, an embryo is initiated by union of egg and sperm cells, the embryo is housed in a protective and ripening organ, and nutrition is provided by specialized nearby tissue. Of course, plants also have their own unique developmental procedures including double fertilization, formation of endosperm, seed development, and most young plant formation taking place outside of the maternal structures. This chapter focuses on the female parts of flowers, the gynoecium, and guides the reader in the development of megaspores, leading to the formation of the megagametophyte. The chapter includes the concepts of double fertilization and embryo development.
