From urban legend to penny dreadful and Broadway musical to the silver screen as a Hollywood film, Sweeney Todd has garnered the interest of people for more than a century and a half. From The Annual Register of London in 1785, the entry read: “A most remarkable murder was perpetrated in the following manner by a journeyman barber that lived near Hyde Park Corner, who had been for a long time past jealous of his wife, but could no way bring it home to her. A young gentleman by chance coming into his master's shop to be shaved and dressed, and being in much liquor, mentioned his having seen a fine girl home, from whom he had certain favors the night before, and at the same time describing her person. The barber concluding it to be his wife, in the height of his frenzy, cut the young gentleman's throat from ear to ear and absconded” (Haining 34). Thus began, according to one hypothesis, the infamous tale of Sweeney Todd, the demon barber whose homicidal activities at 186 Fleet Street have chilled and thrilled the hearts of curious readers and theatre-goers for over 200 years.

Brandon Barker Current Event A long-time friend of the alleged Boston Marathon bomber testified in court today that he gave Dzhokhar Tsarnaev the gun later used in the shooting death of an MIT police officer. Stephen Silva, 21, told the court that he would consider Tsarnaev "one of my best friends." Silva is currently in prison after he was the subject of an undercover federal drug investigation last year and signed a plea deal with the government. While wearing a beige prison jumpsuit, Silva testified that two months before the bombings at the Boston Marathon finish line, he gave Tsarnaev a 9-millimeter handgun that had an "obliterated" serial number. The gun was later used in the fatal shooting of MIT Police Officer Sean Collier, according
Two high-ranking Hells Angels members from the club's Parramatta chapter have been seeking retribution on him ever since. A third bikie, Sleiman "Simon" Tajjour -- the Nomads' Parramatta chapter president -- has been drawn into the saga by protecting Amer, who is currently on bail facing criminal charges. The conflict over Amer's defection has been at the heart of three police strike forces, each formed after flare-ups in gun violence since last year. They include Strike Force Restore -- formed in August 2011 -- which probed five tit-for-tat shootings around Merrylands, Bossley Park and Wakeley. A second investigation, Strike Force Felix, focused on a further five shootings that unfolded following a
Commander Bruce Maddox is the person wanting to have him disassemble so that they can learn more about him in the hopes of making many Data android into an Army. The mind/body argument has to do with the matter and non-matter relationship. However, there are many different thoughts and discussions about what the correct relationship may be. Many philosophers have debated about how the mind and body relate to each other. In this case there is the argument on if Data, the Android Robert, has a mind (or soul).
Ahead of the director’s resignation, Congress—flexing its supervision muscles—decided that the Senate would support all succeeding ATF chiefs. By the first quarter of 2011, no one had been confirmed to take the director’s position, and the country had been without a chief firearms. In 2011, the agency came under scrutiny again, this time round over a gun-trafficking probe in which federal agents deliberately let weapons be shipped across the Mexican border, and later, two weapons were returned up in Arizona, and thought to have been used to kill an American Border Patrol agent in a shootout. Congress and the Department of Justice started investigating this issue as President Obama declared in June 2001 to take appropriate actions upon release of the investigative

Victor’s desire to acquire all the written works from these authors inevitably brought him to the knowledge of the homunculus- a being created through alchemy. (Paracelsus 124). This knowledge would percolate within him until that fateful moment when he asked from whence “did the principle of life proceed?” (Shelley 32). This question is what eventually led Victor to his own
