What is the name of the ship that sails to the island in Treasure Island? | Part II Part II Bookmark this page Manage My Reading List Summary As Chapter 7 ("I Go to Bristol") begins, Jim is staying at the squire's Hall for his protection and that of the map, while Dr. Livesey is in London to arrange for someone to take over his medical practice and Squire Trelawney is in Bristol to buy and outfit a ship. After a few weeks, Jim and Tom Redruth, the squire's trusted servant and head gamekeeper, receive a letter from Trelawney that informs them he has bought a schooner, the Hispaniola, and has hired a crew (with the help and advice of a man called Long John Silver, whom he has engaged as ship's cook). He directs them to come as soon as possible to Bristol. So, after a day's visit with Jim's mother at the inn (repaired now and refurnished by the squire), Jim and Redruth set off by stage for Bristol, an overnight journey. Trelawney greets them and says they will sail the next day. The squire sends Jim (in Chapter 8, "At the Sign of the 'Spy-Glass'") to take a letter to Long John Silver at the tavern he owns, and there — after Silver has announced loudly that this is their new cabin boy — a man whom Jim recognizes as Black Dog runs out the door. Jim is at first suspicious of the one-legged Silver, and especially so upon seeing Black Dog, whom he knows to be a pirate. But he is soon convinced, by Silver's cleanliness, his courtesy, and in general his overall charisma, that Silver is an honest man. Silver sends two men out to run after Black Dog, but they return saying they have lost him in the crowd. Apologizing for his failure to have apprehended the pirate, Silver returns with Jim to the inn where Trelawney and Livesey are waiting and tells the story to them, impressing the doctor, too, with his apparent honest worthiness. Then he goes back to his tavern and the others set off to see the ship. When Jim, Trelawney, and Livesey board the Hispaniola, at the beginning of Chapter 9 ("Powder and Arms"), the captain (Mr. Smollett, referred to earlier as the "sailing master") asks to speak with Trelawney, and Jim and the doctor stay in attendance. Smollett has complaints about the enterprise. He does not trust many of the crew (which it ought to have been his right as captain to hire), does not like the habit of his first mate, Mr. Arrow, of associating too freely with the common sailors, and especially does not like the fact that the whole crew knows they are sailing for treasure — and knows the bearings of the island — when he himself has been told none of this. The squire, saying he has told no one about the map and the island, begins to bluster heatedly, but Dr. Livesey steps in and prevents him from firing Smollett on the spot. Under Livesey's questioning, the captain explains his objections, admits that he has no proof that the first officer and crew are not to be trusted, but says that this treasure hunt will be a dangerous voyage. He asks that Trelawney's servants, Redruth and others whom the squire has brought with him, be quartered near Trelawney's cabin rather than before the mast with the rest of the crew, and that the store of guns and powder be removed from the forehold and kept below the cabin. This, Livesey observes, will effectively separate the newly hired crewmen from those whom Trelawney already knows — as well as from the weapons — and sounds as if the captain fears a mutiny, but Smollett again says he is only being cautious, and that if he had a real reason to fear mutiny he would ask to resign his orders. Silver comes on board and complains that moving the powder and arms will waste too much time. Captain Smollett tells him to mind his own business, and tells Jim to go to the galley (ship's kitchen) with Silver to help prepare the meal. In Chapter 10 ("The Voyage"), everyone works all night in order to lift anchor by dawn, and the song the men sing as they do so reminds Jim of his home and the old "captain." He says he will not tell in detail of the voyage, but only of a few incidents. Arrow, the mate, turns out to be a drunkard, although no one knows where he gets the liquor, an |

What is a legal defence for being somewhere other than at the scene of a crime? | Defenses to Criminal Charges | Nolo.com Defenses To Criminal Charges Share on Facebook To convict a criminal defendant, the prosecutor must prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Of course, the defendant gets an opportunity to present a defense. There are many defenses, from "I didn't do it" to "I did it, but it was self-defense” and beyond. Read more about some common defenses below. (For much more on the available defenses in criminal cases, see our topic page on Defenses to Criminal Charges .) Didn't Do It Most often, defendants go with the claim that they simply did not commit the alleged act in question. The Presumption of Innocence All people accused of crime are legally presumed to be innocent until the point of conviction, whether that comes by way of trial or plea. This presumption means that the prosecution must convince the jury of the defendant's guilt, rather than the defendant having to prove innocence. A defendant may simply remain silent and not present any witnesses, then argue that the prosecution failed to prove its case. But, in practice, defense attorneys often present their own witnesses in order to counteract the government’s case. Reasonable Doubt The prosecutor must convince the fact-finder of the defendant’s guilt "beyond a reasonable doubt." This heavy burden of proof requires that the jury (in some cases, the judge) have a moral certainty that the defendant is guilty. With such a high burden on the opposition, defense attorneys often impress upon juries that thinking the defendant committed the crime isn’t enough for a conviction. The Alibi Defense An alibi defense consists of evidence that the defendant was somewhere other than the scene of the crime at the time of the crime. For example, assume that Jones is accused of committing a burglary on Hampton Street at midnight on September 14. Alibi evidence might consist of a friend’s testimony that he and Jones were at the movie theatre from 11:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. on the night of the 14th. Additional alibi evidence would be the movie tickets and a credit card statement showing that Jones purchased them shortly before 11:00 p.m. The Defendant Did It, But... Sometimes an acquittal is the result even if the prosecutor showed that that the defendant did, without a doubt, commit the alleged act. (For more on this issue, see Jury Behavior .) Self-Defense Self-defense is commonly asserted by those charged with crimes of violence, such as battery , assault with a deadly weapon , or murder . The defendant admits that he or she did in fact use violence, but claims that it was justified by the other person's threatening or violent actions. The core issues in self-defense cases often are: Who was the aggressor? Was the defendant's belief that self-defense was necessary a reasonable one? If so, was the amount force the defendant used also reasonable? Self-defense is rooted in the belief that people should be allowed to protect themselves. In part, this means that someone doesn’t necessarily have to wait to the point of actually being struck in order to act in self-defense. Whatever the circumstances are, any force that the would-be defendant uses has to be reasonable under the circumstances. (For a more complete picture of this defense, see Self-Defense .) The Insanity Defense The insanity defense is generally based on the principle that punishment is justified only where defendants are capable of controlling their behavior and understanding that what they’ve done is wrong. The insanity defense prevents some people who can't function fully from being criminally punished. (For much more on insanity, including the procedures and different tests for determining it, see Pleading Insanity in a Criminal Case .) The insanity defense is an extremely complex topic; many scholarly works are devoted entirely to explaining its nuances. Here are some major points of interest: Despite popular perceptions to the contrary, defendants rarely enter pleas of "not guilty by reason of insanity." When they do, they often have a hard time proving it. (Insanity is just one excepti |

West Texas Intermediate and London Brent are grades of what? | Brent Crude Futures Fall to Four-Year Low on Supply Glut - Bloomberg Brent Crude Futures Fall to Four-Year Low on Supply Glut Moming Zhou and Mark Shenk Brent crude fell to the lowest level in four years on concern global supply is outpacing demand. West Texas Intermediate held at a two-year low. Both grades have collapsed into a bear market as shale supplies boost U.S. output to the most in almost 30 years and global demand growth weakens. The largest OPEC producers are responding by cutting prices, sparking speculation that they will compete for market share rather than reduce supply. “The supply boom is ongoing,” said Michael Lynch, president of Strategic Energy & Economic Research in Winchester, Massachusetts. “Nobody sees any reason to buy so people just keep selling off. The Saudis will have to cut production to stabilize the price.” Brent for November settlement declined $1.26, or 1.5 percent, to close at $83.78 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange, the lowest close since Nov. 23, 2010. Volume was 52 percent above the 100-day average for the time of day. Prices have decreased 27 percent from the June high. WTI for November delivery fell 6 cents to $81.78 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, the lowest since June 28, 2012. Prices are down 24 percent from this year’s June high of $107.26. The volume of all futures traded about double the 100-day average. WTI traded at a $2 discount to Brent on the ICE. WTI extended losses after the American Petroleum Institute was said to report U.S. inventories rose 10.2 million barrels last week, according to Bain Energy. Futures dropped 1.3 percent to $80.81 a barrel in electronic trading at 4:42 p.m. Gasoline Prices The average regular gasoline price in the U.S. fell 0.9 cent a gallon to $3.177 yesterday, according to Heathrow, Florida-based motoring group AAA. That’s the lowest since February 2011. U.S. crude stockpiles probably rose 2.45 million barrels last week, adding to the previous week’s gain of 5.02 million, a Bloomberg survey showed before an Energy Information Administration report tomorrow. The refinery utilization rate was forecast to decline for a third week, the survey showed. U.S. refiners schedule maintenance for September and October as they transition to winter from summer fuels. The EIA, the Energy Department’s statistical arm, will release its weekly petroleum inventory report at 11 a.m. tomorrow in Washington, a day later than usual because of the Columbus Day holiday. Domestic Output Domestic production increased to 8.88 million barrels a day in the seven days ended Oct. 3, the highest level since 1986, according to EIA estimates. The U.S. will pump 9.5 million barrels a day in 2015, the most since 1970, the EIA said. A combination of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, has unlocked supplies in shale formations in North Dakota, Texas and other states. “With U.S. production growing so strong, it’s a tough market to balance,” Greg Sharenow, executive vice president at Newport Beach, California-based Pacific Investment Management Co., who helps manage $26 billion of commodity investments, said by phone yesterday. The falling price may discourage U.S. producers from pumping more oil, said James Williams, an economist at WTRG Economics, an energy-research firm in London, Arkansas. “As prices drop, the higher-cost producers are going to slow their drilling activity,” Williams said. “We may see slower production growth at current prices.” OPEC Output The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, which supplies about 40 percent of the world’s oil, is raising output amid speculation its members are fighting for market share. The group pumped 30.47 million barrels a day in September, the most since August 2013, its monthly report on Oct. 10 showed. The group is meeting next month in Vienna. “OPEC is going to continue to pump at these relatively high levels and tolerate these lower prices at least until the meeting in late November,” said Rob Haworth, a senior investment strategist in Seattle at U.S. Bank Wealt |

Stay the Course mean? | George W. Bush and his advisers, with their obsessive focus on Saddam Hussein, transformed the 9/11 recall-a-thon into a prep session for war. They have exploited a terrible event for their next crusade. And on their watch, the horror of that day has been used not to lessen the distance between America and the rest of the world but to increase it, as other nations recoil from and fear Bush's march to war.\n\n"Now stay the Course" means to continue this nightmare of a war till Bush the decider decides his "mission is accomplished" |

Should I be concerned my University Course in History uses a book written by a Marxist who argued things such as the Holodmor being justified as it's "bible"? | I'm very, very surprised that many of you are unfamiliar with Carr's work. Regardless of his other writings, his "What is History?" is *key* to understanding the modern historiographical canon. If you read Carr's work, it becomes much easier to understand developments in the discipline - such as the cultural and postmodern turns - and the underlying themes of historical study become much clearer. "What is History" is not controversial, and your professor is not trying to teach you "How not to do history." Rather, s/he is showing you the ways that historiography has developed, although I suspect you could also begin earlier with Whigs like Butterfield, or Kantian historical perspective. Yes you have gotten off on the wrong foot with Carr. It is a necessity. |
