Holmes thumps his stick on the pavement in front of the pawnbroker's shop to create a distraction and draw the attention of the pawnbroker, allowing Watson to discreetly observe the shop without being noticed. This action helps Holmes and Watson gather information without arousing suspicion.
It seems like you might be referring to a misspelling of "crayon," which is a colored wax stick used for drawing or coloring. If you have any other questions or need further clarification, feel free to ask!
Surenos came first they started in the 1950's & Crips started in the 1960's, but Crips started wearing the blue bandanas first. Surenos didn't start wearing blue bandanas till the 90's the Crips have been wearing them since the 60's. Surenos nowdays don't really fly colors they stick to tattoos to show their gang affiliation. *Crips are close allies to the Surenos cause they share a common enemy which are the Bloods.
Usually when someone who does not normally lie gets caught in one, they won't continue to lie about it because, basically, they aren't very good at lying. Lyng will cause that person considerable stress, and you will be able to see this. You should remember though, that people lie for all sorts of reasons, and whether or not they stick to the lie depends on whether the emotional discomfort of lying outweighs the goal of the lie (for example, if someone is lying to reach an important goal, they may stick to their story).AnswerWell, it would depend on the lie wouldn't it? If they lied about being somewhere and they werent then they would have to continue to lie to cover it up. If they lied about spending money on something then there could be proof, like a receipt or record. When someone is hiding something and they think they can continue to get away with it then they will. Deception is a hard game to keep straight because somewhere along the line they'll make a mistake or someone will figure it out. Why should someone be typically honest, they should be entirely honest. Once you lie you have to cover it with another and another, etc. They may confess if they have a conscience but then that brings us to the fact that they should have made the right decision in the first place.This one is "Keep your eyes wide open" and your ears.
Forensic Scientists on tv crime shows portray some realism to the job but are not 100% accurate, it may be a fun job for some and not for others. Alot of what is seen is created/made up to increase the audiences attention and entertain the audience, yet they usually stick to some realistic procedures, such as finger printing and number tags for evidence as well as the need for gloves to prevent print damage/tampering.
"[The assistant] was doing something in the cellar - something which took many hours a day for months on end. What could it be, once more? I could think of nothing save that he was running a tunnel to some other building. . . . I surprised you by beating upon the pavement with my stick. I was ascertaining whether the cellar stretched out in front or behind. It was '''''not''''' in front." -- Sherlock Holmes, 'The Red-Headed League'
Holmes had formed a theory about what was going on at the pawn shop. He tests his theory with two specific items. Rather than knock on the door, he pounded on the pavement in front of the door with his stick. Seeing the clay on the knees of the pants confirmed that the assistant had been digging.
I assume you are referring to Fleet Street, but I'm not sure what answer you are looking for.Holmes found at least three things at Fleet Street.He found:Jabez Wilson's pawn shopThe villain, John Clay (aka Spaulding)A hollow under the streetPlease note there was NOT a hollow underneath the street in FRONT of the pawn shop."I surprised you by beating upon the pavement with my stick. I was ascertaining whether the cellar stretched out in front or behind. It was not in front." -- Sherlock Holmes, 'The Red-Headed League'
the walking stick story
Holmes already suspected that Vincent Spaulding was up to no good in 'The Red-headed League,' but he needed to know why. He beat his walking stick upon the pavement, and he determined from this by the solid sound he heard that a tunnel would not be in front of the pawnbroker's shop. When he knocked on the door and saw the soiled knees of Spaulding's trousers, his suspicions were confirmed that a tunnel must be under construction. Holmes then walked around the block (BEHIND the pawnbroker's shop) to find the Coburg branch of the City and Suburban Bank.
Find the answers to these questions and you will have your clues. 1. What two businesses were found to be in close proximity? 2. What happened when Holmes thumped his stick on the pavement? 3. What about the pawnbroker's assistant did Holmes find interesting?
Conan Doyle only uses the word 'cane' for Holmes' walking-stick in two stories. First, when he confronts the speckled band in 'The Adventure of the Speckled Band,' and second when he struck one ledge of Thor Bridge to determine if a mark could be left in 'The Problem of Thor Bridge.' On every other occasion, including when he beat bodies in the dissecting rooms of St. Bart's hospital to verify the degree of bruising after death in 'A Study in Scarlet' and when he thumped the pavement in 'The Red-Headed League' to ascertain the direction of the tunnel, the word stick or walking-stick is employed. The short answer to the question is, yes.
Teeth marks on the stick.
You make sure Holmes isn't there and get a big stick.
{| |- | Sherlock Holmes was a versatile man. He was an expert at the single stick, a sort of fencing with a walking stick. He favored a 'loaded crop' meaning a stick that had some lead added to it to add weight. On at least several occasions, he used a revolver. |}
the way he looked at the stick showed that he knew just what he was doing
