what do you think of harper's law? i good morning. what do you think of harper's law?u think of harper's law? i think the maxim that a lot of peeple _ harper's law? i think the maxim that a lot of people will _ harper's law? i think the maxim that a lot of people will know _ harper's law? i think the maxim that a lot of people will know that - harper's law? i think the maxim that a lot of people will know that hard i a lot of people will know that hard cases make bad law applies here. i don't think a mandatory life sentence for manslaughter is right. i think it blurs the distinction between murder and manslaughter. murder requires an intent to kill or to cause really serious injury. manslaughter can be committed, well, it normally is committed without any such intent and can involve, for example, a single punch which quite unexpectedly leads to somebody�*s death. i think to remove all discretion from judges in cases of manslaughter of emergency workers would be quite wrong. 50. manslaughter of emergency workers would be quite wrong.— would be quite wrong. so, is this w

harper's weekly introduced in 1857 and once more began the most republican of the pictorial weeklies did not credit the 22-year-old thomas nast as the source of several of its illustrations. we know, however, that he returned to the city on july 12th from a frustrated effort to cover the battle of gettysburg. and years later he told his bioer if that he had witnessed -- biographer that he had witnessed and sketched some of the violent events. if any of the 11 harper's engravings of the riot were basedded on nast's work, it was the full-page illustration featured in the august 1st issue. nast knew the asylum neighborhood well having lived on west 44th street until 1862. with an additional week for publication and production for publication, the dramatic and detail thed illustration captured the scale of the asylum's grounds fronting fifth avenue and was more evocative of the events than the pictures in leslie's and the illustrated news. its delineation of the rioters and victims and the narrative it conveyed, however, was less reliable. in accordance with the story-telling strategies

the rioters in harper's weekly's illustrations shared similar physical traits. as did the frequently wasp waisted metropolitan police. but occasionally, there were notable differences in appearance that drew attention to variations among the rioters that were rarely reported in the daily press. for example, a harper's weekly engraving of a thursday scene at 22nd street and first avenue showed ragged women and children around the body of a dead sergeant. it aligned with the depravity of their acts, their behavior and look, merging into the ensemble that denoted rioting women in general as bad, as unsexed, and as amazons. the link between these women's appearance and immorality was surely not lost on the weekly's largely republican readership. but their rags and alien features also designated them as the most destitute and usually of the city's immigrant poor. in stark contrast to depictions of working class rioters and rioting women in other images. the second installment of riot illustrations in frank leslie's provided readers with more visual distinctions among

"harper's weekly" introduced in 1857 and once the most republican of the weeklies, did not credit the 22 year old thomas nast as the source of several of its illustrations. we know, however, that he returned to the city on july 12th from a frustrated effort to cover the battle of gettysburg. years later, he told his biographer that he had witnessed and sketched some of the violent events. in any of the 11 harpers engravings are based on the work of thomas nast, it is the full page illustration of the burning asylum, featured in the august 1st issue. nasty view the asylum well, having lived on west 84th street until 1862. the dramatic and detailed illustrations captured the scale of the asylum and was more evocative of the events then in leslie's and the illustrated news. it depicts a narrative that is less reliable, however, in accordance with the storytelling strategies of news engraver's, the picture both compressed and extend the narrative of the events. but aside from the very few women shown among riders. and spectators in the foreground, the engraving presumably based on that sk

lucy harper there, pc andrew harper's widow meeting dominic raab.o it is a golden season when it comes to the economy. before the pandemic, around a third of us came to events like this to spend and to enjoy ourselves, and altogether, that was worth about £500 million to the uk economy, but since brexit, of course, fewer european traders have been able to come in, and there is, of course, that massive gap in the workforce. let's talk... ..then, get rid of one of our little friends — james — one of the organisers. good to see you. what is the public mood like for events like this at the moment? massive, we are now back in our spiritual home at the designer outlet with yorkshire's winter wonderland, 730 days since we were last here and people have missed it, people have genuinely missed that family experience. they didn't have a christmas last year, so we are finding there is a vast appetite for people to come back, shop, obviously, and then have an integrated experience — go skating, go to the cafe, go to the funfair, see santa, all the things you do

he's laying in bed and harper's ferry he watches his regiment march at up harper's ferry across onto a bridge and then climb what i thought was loud in height. i think it is short hill that they went up and over. he is very vaxed by this. he writes in his diary, i watch that thin blue line disappear until it reached the summit of the mountain and disappeared into the deal when street forest beyond. so the next day he decides it might be a bright idea, he does not want to miss the war. his comrades are gone. he hauled himself out of bed and he is going to follow his regiment and catch up with them. so, let's pick up with some entries from his diary after he says this. he is climbing up a short hill and says i continue to ascend the mountain after frequently making -- resting at length i reach the summit where i can look back down into the valley beyond. i did not take long to realize with a tinge of anxiety as i fought in vain for our little army which was out of sight. he cannot see his comrades and the tree cover is much less looking down when he called that leesburg valley he canno

but that also raises the question about harpers ferry. so what exactly does brown think was going to happen as a result of this is clear that by the time he is executed, john brown has concluded that is worth more to the abolitionist movement into the freedom of movement dead than alive and you can almost see that revelation dawning on him in his days in jail before the court in all of this. so i think that as far as i can tell that when he went to harpers ferry still hoping with the work, that is where serving self-taught person. >> i think about how lincoln was checking books out of the library of congress to learn about military energy in the beginning and during the war and same kind of thank you pretty can you speak this at what point did john brown decide to stay in the engine house that harpers ferry into not go out as he originally landed and what caused him to ultimately make that decision. >> is that a loaded question, i don't know if it is not. >> no no no, i think that he was expecting a little more of a an explosion among the

because john brown invited him to take part in the raid on harpers ferrie. this will add credibility. and especially someone who has been a slave. and douglas says no. and part of the reason is that he recognizes that this is probably a suicide mission. recognized that they enslaved folks, and they're not jus going to follow anybody that seems to have a crack pot need to start a war. they are going to waive their chances at starting this war and they're going to say it doesn't work. and this is what happened. so the response was that i'm a writer, not a fighter, but he knew this wasn't going to work. none the less like every other abolition cyst, he admired him for having the courage to have his con fictions and giving his life for the cause. well abraham seemed too slow. douglas was willing to grant lincoln some leeway. douglas said that lincoln was misunderstanding what this war was about and he really challenged his own newspaper. he was prioritizing things. he made very clear that saving the union came first, in his famous letter, i will save the letter

he's laying in bed in a house in harper's ferry and he watches his regiment march out of harper's ferry, across a pontoon bridge, and then climb what i thought was loudoun heights but actually i think it's short hill, up and over. and he's very vexed by this. he writes in his diary, i watched as that thin blue line disappeared until it reached the summit of the mountain and disappeared into the dull, wintry forest beyond. so the next day, he decides that it might be a bright idea, he doesn't want to miss the war, right, his comrades are gone. he hauls himself out of bed, and he's going to follow his regiment and catch up with them. so let's pick up with some entries from his diary after he says this. he's climbing up short hill, and he says, i continue to ascend the mountain. after frequently making -- resting at length, i reached the summit, whence i could look back down into the valley beyond. and i did not take long to realize, with a tinge of anxiety, as i sought in vain for our little army which was out of sight. so he can't see his comrades. of course the tree cover is much left,

workedch inside the building at harper collins. and this was in 1999, like i said. the time that i started. i was in -- i was working at s&s for about a year at that point, and charles harris came over almost a year, like maybe six or seven months. and charles came over and asked me to come over to amistad and help him run it. and i turned him down, because i had just started ai new job ani didn't know that was something you could do, start a new job and turn around and quit a few months later. i thought that would be not being loyal. and so we always stayed in touch, because we knew each other even prior to that. i would see him from time to time at parties andim things. and charles was just wicked smart and debonair man. and obviously very creative and entrepreneurial, or amistad would probably not be around today. and so when harper took in amistad, if i that's the proper language, probably not, i had the honor to work with amistad. and, you know, mutually build each other up and learn from each other. that's -- okay. so that's

he goes into the -- valley and down to harpers ferry. and he goes down to train albertiss's battery. now alberta's is an older man, and he helps to lead, -- this put pelham in command of the battery for the first major command. and their commission is on the far right side of the command near the robinson house. and there's a photograph taken out in that area and how alum does move around a little bit on the manassas battlefield and move his guns forward, a position so expose that a fellow officer remarked, is pelham fool enough to stay there? i am not. pelham's actions are noticed at the battle of first manassas, but he also has a small change of heart, or a change of perspective about the war, and he writes a letter to his father, which fortunately was printed in a local alabama newspaper, making one of the few wore letters that pelosi wrote to survive in some form or another. i want to share an excerpt from it. he writes, i've seen what's romancers called glorious war. a scene in all its phases. i've heard the cannon and the deadly ra

it was harper's first career defeat. 0n social media, she said she was fine but heartbroken.now. remembrance events are being held around the world — but this year, there will be no gathering at the british military cemetery in kabul. that follows the rise to power in afghanistan of the taliban. our world affairs editor john simpson is there — and he sent this update. normally on remembrance sunday there would be a ceremony here attended by the british ambassador and other commonwealth ambassadors. not this year. there is no british ambassador and scarcely any british people left in the country. there are some wreaths but most of them are from previous occasions. the one in the middle arrived on the 11th of november. this was from canada. although this is a british cemetery many countries have buried their dead here. south africa, spain, france, and other countries. a lot of people naturally would say a50 british deaths and all the others in a war that was lost was just a complete waste of time. i don't think many afghans would think that. they would see how their lives have

here's our africa editor mary harper.er a truck rammed into a petrol tanker. people rushed to collect the leaking fuel, causing a heavy trafficjam. there was a vast explosion, with fireballs spreading through the crowds. vehicles stuck in the jam were set alight. people inside them could not escape. most of the dead have been taken to the mortuary. hospitals in freetown are overwhelmed with injured people, many in a critical condition. police, soldiers and firefighters worked through the night. accidents involving fuel tankers happen relatively often in some parts of africa. potholed roads, poorly maintained vehicles, bad drivers and low safety standards are part of the problem. hundreds have died over the years, many of them people who gather quickly to collect the leaking fuel. mary harper, bbc news. bbc�*s umaru fofana gave this update from the site of the incident. just behind this wall here there are charred bodies that have been brought from the scene of the accident and just outside here are anxious relatives who h

he's off fighting the west and he takes part in stocking harpers ferry. the favorite with general robert e. lee and known for his charisma and has lots of legends that he actually wants to cultivate and he tries out new tactics but i think that's something that sometimes we forget about stuart. he has incredible spy network that he's using throughout virginia. stuart has this idea could he have -- something they used on napoleonic outfield to move from point to point. he has some trouble finding a commander. first he thinks it's going to be john cook. cook spends half his time in richmond it doesn't have a lot of interest at this point in forming an artillery unit. then james brett is the confederate military are not so into him at the moment and the third time is a charm pelham's name. pelham has been active with the artillery and is definitely helping to form and train units that are coming to the confederates at that point in time. for one reason or another the confederate military in richmond say yes pelham will be the commander of the force artillery

first of all, he was on a team that won 107 games bryce harper at 35 home runs.d had 24 but brandon had 90 rbs to harper's 84. crawford won a gold glove as well. perfect sample of let's say east coast bias. brandon crawford deserved better than 1/4 place finish in the mvp, boating, american leg. absolutely no qualms with their winner of the mvp. the angels shohei otani unanimously receiving all 31st place votes. vladimir guerrero was second and marcus simeon, the former a short step winds up in third place. otani the ultimate multitasker and baseball. he was nine and two. pitching with the 3.18 e r. a. hitting he had 46 home runs and 100 rbs that is indeed most valuable. alright thursday night football. you may have noticed the new england patriots are starting to turn into a very solid football team, and mac jones, who should be a familiar name to 49 fans. fifth quarterback. taken in this year's draft. he'll find nelson angle or open 19 yard touchdown. patriots taking a 10 lead that's his 14th touchdown pass of the year member josh rosen, 49ers fans, he gets int

this was the response from rosie nicole—harper. a distressing video emerged of a member of a hunt hitting and kicking a horse. we are not going to show any upsetting images now, but it was discussed that morning by victoria derbyshire on the news channel. and we're going to talk to our correspondent about it. sean, you are blind so you had this described to you. i have. if we pop it up on screen now this 27 second clip was posted to twitter by the hertfordshire hunt saboteurs on sunday for that— will give an audio description for those who may not be able to see the video. sean later explained on social media that his audio description of the video was for the benefit of anyone who can't see the screen and struggled to see the screen. this is what inclusion looks like, he went on. it means we reached audiences we would otherwise miss. it was a step applauded by mojo abedi, who wrote... thank you for all your comments this week. if you have anything to say about what you see, hear or read on bbc news on tv, radio, online and social

give you a sense of the bredth of these by showing you -- bredth of these -- breadth of these from harper's magazine. we have a woman smoking a cigar, women wearing men's clothing such as a top hat. women wearing bloomers, and i should note that these bloomer skirts are very short n. reality, a -- in reality, a lot of them were down to their ankles. we have a woman off to the right side pulling up her bloomer pants and showing off her ankles again. we also have two women with their backs toward us who are actually linking arms, giving us a suggestion that these women are so reliant on each other and so is interested in only promoting the interests perhaps of other women that they're romantically interested in other women as well and kind of fully abandoning men in this version of their reality. and so i want to kind of connect this to some of the civil war industry this we've been talking about in conversations, because by the time we get to the mid 19th century, the association between women's dress with weakness, with frivolity, with kind of the person you don't take very seriously politi
