Inverness: Inverness ( ; from the Scottish Gaelic: "Inbhir Nis" ] , meaning "Mouth of the River Ness") is a city in the Scottish Highlands.  It is the administrative centre for the Highland council area, and is regarded as the capital of the Highlands.  Inverness lies near two important battle sites: the 11th-century battle of Blàr nam Fèinne against Norway which took place on The Aird and the 18th-century Battle of Culloden which took place on Culloden Moor.  It is the northernmost city in the United Kingdom and lies within the Great Glen (Gleann Mòr) at its north-eastern extremity where the River Ness enters the Moray Firth.  At the latest, a settlement was established by the 6th century with the first royal charter being granted by Dabíd mac Maíl Choluim (King David I) in the 12th century.  The Gaelic king Mac Bethad Mac Findláich (MacBeth) whose 11th-century killing of King Duncan was immortalised in Shakespeare's largely fictionalized play "Macbeth", held a castle within the city where he ruled as Mormaer of Moray and Ross.

King Duncan: King Duncan is a fictional character in Shakespeare's "Macbeth."  He is the father of two youthful sons (Malcolm and Donalbain), and the victim of a well-plotted regicide in a power grab by his trusted captain Macbeth.  The origin of the character lies in a narrative of the historical Donnchad mac Crinain, King of Scots, in Raphael Holinshed's 1587 "The Chronicles of England, Scotland, and Ireland," a history of Britain familiar to Shakespeare and his contemporaries.  Unlike Holinshed's incompetent King Duncan (who is credited in the narrative with a "feeble and slothful administration"), Shakespeare's King Duncan is crafted as a sensitive, insightful, and generous father-figure whose murder grieves Scotland and is accounted the cause of turmoil in the natural world.

Malcolm (Macbeth): Malcolm is a character in William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" (c. 1603–1607).  The character is based on the historical king Malcolm III of Scotland, and is derived largely from the account in "Holinshed's Chronicles" (1587), a history of Britain.  He is the elder son of King Duncan, the heir to the throne, and brother to Donalbain.  In the end, he regains the throne after mustering support to overthrow Macbeth.

Donalbain (Macbeth): Donalbain is a character in William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" (c. 1603–1607).  He is the younger son of King Duncan and brother to Malcolm, the heir to the throne.  Donalbain flees to Ireland after the murder of his father for refuge.

Duncan I of Scotland: Donnchad mac Crinain (Modern Gaelic: "Donnchadh mac Crìonain"; anglicised as Duncan I, and nicknamed An t-Ilgarach, "the Diseased" or "the Sick"; ca. 1001 – 14 August 1040) was king of Scotland ("Alba") from 1034 to 1040.  He is the historical basis of the "King Duncan" in Shakespeare's play "Macbeth".

Connelly v DPP: Connelly v DPP [1964] AC 1254 was a landmark trial in the United Kingdom where the House of Lords ruled regarding double jeopardy in British law.  It was ruled that criminal proceedings could be stayed if an "abuse of process" violated the "standards of fairness" and hampered the rights of the defendant.  Connelly had been tried for murder, while in the commission of a robbery, and was found guilty despite a defence revolving around a lack of intent for murder.  Connelly's case was then heard at the Court of Appeal, where his conviction was overturned and Connelly was acquitted of murder and instead indicted for robbery.  Connelly pleaded "autrefois acquit", or "double jeopardy", however argument was rejected and he was convicted.  It was ruled that the offences of murder while committing robbery, and robbery, differed enough "in fact and in law" for "double jeopardy" to not apply.

The Other House: The Other House is a novel by Henry James, first published as a serial in the "Illustrated London News" in 1896 and then as a book later the same year.  Set in England, this book is something of an oddity in the James canon for its plot revolving around a murder.  The novel was originally planned as a play called "The Promise".  James sketched a scenario for the play in 1893, but it didn't interest theater managers.  In 1896 James converted the scenario into "The Other House" for publication in a popular weekly magazine.  He converted the novel back into a play in 1909, but it again failed to be produced.

So Long Self: "So Long Self" is a song written and performed by Christian rock band MercyMe.  "So Long Self" is musically a song with a lyrical theme revolving around a figurative breakup with one's self.  "So Long Self" was released as the lead single from the band's 2006 album "Coming Up to Breathe".
