Chris Bunting: Smalls talk
http://chrisbunting2.blogspot.com/2004/07/smalls-talk.html
From frills and thrills to nothing at all,. Uncovers the hidden agenda of underwear. Someone sniggered in the back of the court. Lee Bowyer, the Leeds United footballer accused of a brutal attack on an Asian student, had been asked by his barrister, Desmond de Silva QC, to change into the trousers and shoes he had worn on the night of the alleged assault. It was a dramatic court moment, but Bowyer stood still in the witness stand, apparently struck dumb. Converted to Blogger Beta by Blogcrowds.

Chris Bunting: Death in the Arctic
http://chrisbunting2.blogspot.com/2004/07/arctic-and-meaning-of-life.html
Death in the Arctic. HUGH Brody has friends in communities across the high Arctic and the thousands of miles of forest that lie between the tundra of Canada's far north and the wide prairies of its cultivated south. Few have made as much of an impression on him as a Dunne-za Indian called Jimmy Field. In his house in Highgate, Brody tells the story of a man who "was a kind of genius of that territory and way of life" Full article. Converted to Blogger Beta by Blogcrowds.

Chris Bunting: Bringing justice to the killing fields
http://chrisbunting2.blogspot.com/2004/07/bringing-justice-to-killing-fields.html
Bringing justice to the killing fields. THE dour corridor of filing cabinets that Stephen Heder uses as an office at London's School of Oriental and African Studies might, on second thoughts, have been a better choice of venue for the interview.

Chris Bunting: Aggression - book chapter
http://chrisbunting3.blogspot.com/2007/07/aggression-book-chapter.html
Aggression - book chapter. Chris Bunting, Times Higher Education Supplement, April 2001. Subsequently reproduced in "Big Questions in Science" (Jonathan Cape, Hardback, 2002). A solitary "matador" and a half-crazed bull replayed their parts in an old, violent ritual in a sun soaked arena in southern Spain. It was the summer of 1964 but film of the incident is still shown in lecture halls today. It was the hot, high summer of scientists' belief in their ability to not only to explain but to intervene in t...

Chris Bunting: Tongue twisters
http://chrisbunting3.blogspot.com/2007/07/tongue-twisters_24.html
Chris Bunting, Times Education Supplement, Teacher magazine, March 2003. IT was the most disastrous translation mistake in history: a simple language error that may have helped kill 15 million people. A secret set of instructions sent from Tokyo to the Japanese ambassador about how to handle the peace plan was picked up by American code-breakers and a translation of the instructions was on the desk of Secretary of State Cordell Hull days before the Japanese ambassador made his presentation. Sadly, it was...

Chris Bunting: Looking for well read men in blue
http://chrisbunting3.blogspot.com/2007/07/looking-for-well-read-men-in-blue.html
Looking for well read men in blue. Chris Bunting. Times Higher Education Supplement, August 2001. A collector of stereotypes would be disappointed in the University of Central Lancashire academic. A serving policeman until last year, he exudes the down-to-earth, professional affability of an experienced officer. Answers to questions are brief and to the point. Forde believes they have staged evidence to fit their hypothesis. "I think the evidence points to a suicide. Lindow Man has also got a wou...His w...

Chris Bunting: Looking for well read men in blue
http://chrisbunting2.blogspot.com/2004/07/looking-for-well-read-men-in-blue.html
Looking for well read men in blue. ANTHONY Forde looks like a curious hybrid of a police officer and an academic. On top, the buttoned-up blazer and tightly knotted tie wouldn't be out of place at a freemasons' lodge. Below, the jeans and deck shoes quietly hint at senior common room sociologist chic. It is an unusual combination, but, for some reason, it sits comfortably on the founder of Britain's first undergraduate degree in police and criminal investigation.
