Passage: A contingent under Seán Connolly occupied Dublin City Hall and adjacent buildings. They attempted to seize neighbouring Dublin Castle, the heart of British rule in Ireland. As they approached the gate a lone police sentry, James O'Brien appearing to be unarmed in his heavy coat, attempted to politely stop them as he assumed that the men were simply lost, but he was shot dead by Connolly. According to some accounts, he was the first casualty of the Rising. The rebels overpowered the soldiers in the guardroom but failed to press further. The British Army's chief intelligence officer, Major Ivon Price, fired on the rebels while the Under-Secretary for Ireland, Sir Matthew Nathan, helped shut the castle gates. Unbeknownst to the rebels, the Castle was lightly guarded and could have been taken with ease. The rebels instead laid siege to the Castle from City Hall. Fierce fighting erupted there after British reinforcements arrived. The rebels on the roof exchanged fire with soldiers on the street. Seán Connolly was shot dead by a sniper, becoming the first rebel casualty. By the following morning, British forces had re-captured City Hall and taken the rebels prisoner.

Question: Regardless of how his actions would be viewed in a courtroom, could Connolly himself assuage his own conscience by saying that he truly believed that his own life was in danger at the time that he shot O'Brien?
Answer: NO

Question: From what can be gathered from this passage, is it reasonable to conclude that, at the time of the shooting, Connolly thought that the only threat from O'Brien was that he could alert others to their presence instead of offering armed resistance on his own?
Answer: YES

As they approached the gate a lone police sentry, James O'Brien, attempted to stop them, but he was shot dead by Connolly while O'Brien was in the process of drawing his standard-issued sidearm. According to some accounts, he was the first casualty of the Rising. The rebels overpowered the soldiers in the guardroom but failed to press further.

Answer: YES

Question: Does the passage imply that at least some British police in Ireland at this time were authorized to carry firearms, even if they only used pistols?
Answer: YES

Passage: In his speech to the House of Commons on the Inquiry, British prime minister David Cameron stated: "These are shocking conclusions to read and shocking words to have to say. But you do not defend the British Army by defending the indefensible." He acknowledged that all those who died were unarmed when they were killed by British soldiers, and that a British soldier had fired the first shot at civilians. He also said that this was not a premeditated action, though "there was no point in trying to soften or equivocate" as "what happened should never, ever have happened". Cameron then apologised on behalf of the British Government by saying he was "deeply sorry".

Question: Could the case be made that this was a potential war crime, since the British soldiers had no reason to fear for their own lives?
Answer: YES

Question: Does it sound like some of the controversy about this incident is that weapons were found in civilian hands after the fact, when they could have been concealed or otherwise unusable during the actual incident?
Answer: NO

Question: From the way the incident is described, is it reasonable to conclude (and not just a hypothetical possibility) that the British soldiers could have taken casualties from incoming fire after initiating the shooting?
Answer: NO
Passage: In his speech to the House of Commons on the Inquiry, British prime minister David Cameron stated: "These are shocking conclusions to read and shocking words to have to say. But you do not defend the British Army by defending the indefensible." Cameron admitted that it was a British soldier who opened fire upon the civilians, none of whom were carrying weapons at the time of their death. He also said that this was not a premeditated action, though "there was no point in trying to soften or equivocate" as "what happened should never, ever have happened". Cameron then apologised on behalf of the British Government by saying he was "deeply sorry".

Passage: Ice dance, like pair skating, has its roots in the "combined skating" developed in the 19th century by skating clubs and organizations and in recreational social skating. Couples and friends would skate waltzes, marches, and other social dances. The first steps in ice dance were similar to those used in ballroom dancing. In the late 1800s, American Jackson Haines, known as "the Father of Figure Skating", brought his style of skating, which included waltz steps and social dances, to Europe. By the end of the 19th century, waltzing competitions became popular throughout the world. By the early 1900s, ice dance was popular around the world and was primarily a recreational sport, although during the 1920s, local clubs in Britain and the U.S. conducted informal dance contests. Recreational skating became more popular during the 1930s in England.

Question: If you were to watch a ice-dancing competition in a club during the Roaring Twenties, would you expect to see a panel of professional judges making careful evaluations of the competitors?
Answer: NO

Question: Could an ice dancer have put together a resume of her achievements by citing awards won at clubs in the 1920s, given the level of professionalism and formality that graced these events?
Answer: NO

Question: Would an ice-dancing competition in the 1920s be more likely be judged by how much the crowd seemed to be entertained, or who the bartender personally favored, rather than a strict judgment of artistic merit?
Answer: YES

Passage: No official results were announced for more than a month after the first round. The failure to release results was strongly criticised by the MDC, which unsuccessfully sought an order from the High Court to force their release. An independent projection placed Tsvangirai in the lead, but without the majority needed to avoid a second round. The MDC declared that Tsvangirai won a narrow majority in the first round and initially refused to participate in any second round. ZANU-PF has said that Mugabe will participate in a second round; the party alleged that some electoral officials, in connection with the MDC, fraudulently reduced Mugabe's score, and as a result a recount was conducted.

Question: Based on the independent results, would Tsvangirai likely end up in charge?
Answer: YES

Passage: Following the Suez Crisis in 1956, Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser agreed to allow the United Nations Emergency Force to establish itself in the Sinai Peninsula and Gaza Strip, precipitating the expulsion of all guerrilla or "fedayeen" forces there—including Arafat. Arafat originally attempted to obtain a visa to Canada and later Saudi Arabia, but was unsuccessful in both attempts. In 1957, he applied for a visa to Kuwait (at the time a British protectorate) and was approved, based on his work in civil engineering. There he encountered two Palestinian friends: Salah Khalaf ("Abu Iyad") and Khalil al-Wazir ("Abu Jihad"), both official members of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood. Arafat had met Abu Iyad while attending Cairo University and Abu Jihad in Gaza. Both would later become Arafat's top aides. Abu Iyad traveled with Arafat to Kuwait in late 1960; Abu Jihad, also working as a teacher, had already been living there since 1959. After settling in Kuwait, Abu Iyad helped Arafat obtain a temporary job as a schoolteacher.

Question: Would it have been possible to meet with Arafat in Toronto in 1957?
Answer: NO

Question: Would it have been possible for Arafat to go on Hajj in 1957?
Answer: NO

Question: Could Arafat have taken a flight from Saudi Arabia to Canada in 1957?

Passage: Welles gave Wise detailed instructions and was usually absent during the film's editing. The film was very well planned out and intentionally shot for such post-production techniques as slow dissolves. The lack of coverage made editing easy since Welles and Toland edited the film "in camera" by leaving few options of how it could be put together. Wise said the breakfast table sequence took weeks to edit and get the correct "timing" and "rhythm" for the whip pans and overlapping dialogue. The "News on the March" sequence was edited by RKO's newsreel division to give it authenticity. They used stock footage from Pathé News and the General Film Library.

Question: Was Welles present for the majority of the film's editing?
Answer: NO

Question: Did Welles have confidence in Wise's ability to carry out his instructions for editing the film?
Answer: YES
