Old Bailey

Christiana Edmunds is an exceptional one. Christiana Edmunds was a 33 year old, middle class woman living in Brighton when she became the patient of the local physician Dr. Charles Beard in 1869. During the course of the next few months Christiana and Dr. Beard began to exchange love letters but unfortunately for Christiana Dr. Beard had a wife. As reported in The Derby Mercury, Christiana gifted Dr. Beard’s wife, Emily, some chocolates in September of 1870. Emily tried to eat them but immediately spit them out and then presented symptoms of poisoning. Dr. Beard confronted Christiana about the situation, accusing her of attempted…

V then proceeds to play the song 1812 Overture across London and to blow up The Old Bailey, fireworks a flame. At the beginning of V for Vendetta Evey is shy and naive, with little knowledge of what…

In my creative response I have created an illustration of Lady Justice atop the Old Bailey, accompanied by a quotation from the film. This response seeks to explore the themes of deception, truth, innocence, and nationalism that appear throughout the course of the film. Lady Justice is an historic character based on the Roman goddess Justitia, the incarnation of justice in Roman society (Köhler, W 1961). The scales represent the fairness of any given trial, showing that evidence is weighed…

navigating through traffic. The ride is more Accord than Camry. It feels sufficiently sporty without being overtly harsh. The Fusion's overall ride does not feel as settled and poised as an Accord, but I would rank it right near the top of the family sedan class. Noise can be pronounced in certain spots, but no more than a typical 4-cylinder powered car. Overall execution of the car feels excellent. I would consider it a domestic equal to the Accord, which is a compliment considering the Accord…

Roald Dahl’s “Lamb to the Slaughter” INTRODUCTION My analysis of Roald Dahl’s short story “Lamb to the Slaughter” reveals the murder of police detective Patrick Maloney. The story depicts a tale of a loyal wife’s reaction to her husband’s betrayal. The story is an irregular day in Mary’s regular life. She makes the day turn around by murdering her husband and smartly covering it up, leaving the detectives with no possible way to excuse “innocent” Mary of murder. This short story, we are taught…

Among the most illustrious were the series of studies conducted by Pillard and Michael Bailey. Bailey was a psychology professor at Northwestern University.…

beside the original, which helps the reader to see the chapter within its original contexts. As the authors walk through each section (grouping of verses) within the chapter, such as vs 1-6; vs 7-12; vs 13-17; and vs 18-20, they point out specific parts of them. They mention his (Micah’s) tendency toward realistic language verses the typical symbolic poetry, and how Micah’s word choices are raw and not analytical—which is fairly typical of the prophets. The authors make clear that this chapter…
