The Judges was a The Netherlands Dutch Commodore 64 group known as one of the earliest dedicated demogroup s. The Judges released several demo computer programming demos for the Commodore 64 home computer between the years 1986 1988. Groups such as The Judges are regarded as early pioneers of what came to be known as the demoscene . A technical milestone often attributed to The Judges, particularly the programmer Bart White Meeuwissen, is the invention of the FLD Flexible Line Distance technique, which was used in the Think Twice series of demos. As the name implies, FLD made it possible to have a variable distance between the individual text or graphics lines generated by the MOS Technology VIC II VIC II video chip. FLD facilitated many new effects used in several games and demos, and it was also used to create new graphics modes with much lesser restrictions in the color placement. The group s musician Jeroen Kimmel Jeroen Red Kimmel went on to compose and sell video game music commercially for different platforms such as the C64, Amiga and MSX computers.

Murmuring Judges , first performed in 1991, is a scathing attack on the United Kingdom British legal system, and the second of a trilogy of plays by David Hare dramatist David Hare examining Great Britain s most hallowed institutions. The first play in the trilogy, Racing Demon play Racing Demon , examines the Church of England , and the third examines political parties . Overview Murmuring Judges takes a three tiered view of a single instance of British justice the trial, conviction and appeal process of a dubiously guilty accomplice to a theft and kidnapping attack. The case is examined from the point of view of the police, the lawyers and the judges, as well as from inside the prison system. In each level, the injustices and insensitivities of the current system are highlighted as they are embodied by older proponents who cannot see past the traditions of British justice . Contextually, the play also underlines problems that the system were facing in the late 80 s, early 90 s, such as a rise in immigration and a hightening sense of terror, such as the IRA . However, the play is not entirely bleak as it also showcases the possibility for change through the younger professionals both in the police force and in the legal profession. However, the overall message is not hopeful an innocent man, Gerard, remains in prison with his life ravaged by despair and sexual assault. The pessimism is slightly relieved by the final image of the play, two young women, a barrister, Irina and a police officer, Sandra, who set to work on the arduous task of revolutionising the system. ref cite journal last Abel first Sam title Murmuring Judges journal Theatre Journal volume 44 issue 4 date December 1993 url http links.jstor.org sici?sici 0192 2882 28199212 2944 3A4 3C541 3 a.m.J 3E2.0.CO 3B2 Q accessdate 2007 12 11 ref References reflist DavidHare Category 1991 plays Category Plays by David Hare ... more details

Cleanup date April 2008 The Judges Rules are a set of guidelines about police and questioning and the acceptability of the resulting statements and confessions as evidence in court. Originally prepared for police in England, the Rules and their successor documents have become a part of legal procedure not just in Britain but in places as far afield as Jamaica, Zambia and Western Samoa where English law is followed. The Rules were first issued in 1912 by the judges of the King s Bench to give English police force s guidance on the procedures that they should follow in detaining and questioning suspects. The Home Secretary had requested the judges to explain how an investigation should be conducted to avoid the resulting evidence being ruled inadmissible in court. The rules were intended to halt a divergence in practice that had developed among different police forces, and replaced earlier informal guidance, such as Sir Howard Vincent s Police Code and Manual of Criminal Law . The Judges Rules were not rules of law, but rather rules of practice for the guidance of the police, setting out the kinds of conduct that could cause a judge to exercise discretion to exclude evidence, in the interests of a fair trial. High Court judge Lawrence J explained in R. v. Voisin legal citation 1918 1 KB 531 , that cquote In 1912 the judges, at the request of the Home Secretary, drew up some rules as guidance for police officers. These rules have not the force of law they are administrative directions the observance of which the police authorities should enforce upon their subordinates as tending to the fair administration of justice. It is important that they should do so, for statements obtained from prisoners, contrary to the spirit of these rules, may be rejected as evidence by the judge presiding at the trial. The rules did not alter the law on admissibility of evidence, but became a code ... that largely preserves the requirements set out in the Rules.

While the album does not have one theme that binds all the songs, several tracks deal with high concepts such as religion Church and death Family Reserve & Since The Last Time . Lovett s renowned sense of humor and whimsy are temporarily set aside in favor of reflective musings on heartbreak and loss. The album s title is a pun made up of the names of three books that appear sequentially in the Old Testament Book of Joshua Joshua , Book of JudgesJudges , and Book of Ruth Ruth . In keeping with Lovett s other releases, Joshua received critical acclaim but failed to vault the singer into mainstream success.
