"I would point out to you that medical explanations are modern. That Americans today want medical explanations for things that in the 19th century would have been explained by hysteria, and in the 18th century would have been explained by religious conversion experiences in the context of the Great Awakening, when people were having these types of fits, and in the 17th century by witchcraft."posted by empath (54 comments total) 18 users marked this as a favorite
"I don't think there is a medical explanation for what happened. I really don't. It has to do with the context of the time. It has to do with the Indian war that was going on. It has to do with the tremendous fear that people had of the Indians."Being right in the middle of the unexpectedly-excellent Lies My Teacher Told Me, I was immediately on high alert when I saw that the first person the girls accused was a Native American. This is reinforced by the stuff Norton says above.
The take-home from the trials shouldn't be that poisonous plants can make you hallucinate, but that a perfectly capable, religious, and law-abiding community that laid the roots for American justice legally and conscientiously executed 20 of its own innocent citizens.This here's the important bit, though it takes a circuitous route to get there. This is why it doesn't really matter what exactly led to a set of strange behavior three hundred years ago. What matters is that it shows the evil that can be inside decent people and respectable systems.
They were by no means that stupid - and we're by no means all that sophisticated, either. What annoys me about Salem is the way that in popular culture it is unthinkingly used as a synonym for 'witches', not for 'persecution' or 'superstition'.We studied The Crucible in high-school and that was very much the message we were supposed to take away, including the fact it was written as an allegory about commie hysteria in the 50s.
I asked Norton if she had any idea of how we'd explain the Salem witch trials in the next century, once we move out of the medical thought-period.
The notion of a child as a witch did not contradict Puritan belief. Particularly in the unusual case of Salem, witches and children alike were seen as easily influenced and potential or existing conduits for the devil...Because the devil worked through people in this way, no prior experience or knowledge was necessary to make someone a witch; thus the notion of very young, uneducated children as potent witches was perfectly compatible with Puritan belief. Cotton Mather stated this directly, remarking, "Are they Young? Yet the Devil has been with them alreadyO They go astray as soon as they are born."I know Puritans were exceedingly suspicious of children and alert to the slightest hint of lack of correctness, and I'm not sure there would be a presumption that they'd have no reason to lie -- because of course, the reason could be the devil at work making them lie. For the men in this situation, the head and representative and chief religious instructor in a household, any negative behavior on the part of children had to get crushed right quick, or you would soon be the one perceived as a direct danger and a community liability.
In fact, Puritan practice may have made children more likely than adults in some ways to actually believe that they were witches. The historian Judith Graham notes that "Puritan girls and boys grew up in a culture that relentlessly required them to confront their sinfulness, and to contemplate the possibility of being separated from the regenerate and condemned to the palpable horrors of hell."24 Puritan doctrine may thus have worked with childhood fears to convince children of their own inherent immorality and unworthiness. In such a context, it is hardly surprising that children as young as five or seven could convince themselves that their "sinfulness" had been translated into direct collaboration with the devil. The children's confessions from 1692 support this assumption.
...Accused children, like ideal children, were religiously precocious, but they babbled confessions instead of sermons and covenanted with the devil instead of with God.

Hi there,
My husband bought foam weather stripping to seal the gaps in some exterior doors. He measured the gaps and then bought one thickness of weather stripping that he thought would work. We've done this before without any luck, but we thought a better grade of this foam weather stripping would work.
Well... this stuff doesn't stay where it's placed (it peels right up) even though we washed & dried the doorframe first. It is too thick to shut the door but is the right width, and no other product (my husband claims) would have worked. We tried cutting down the thickness but it doesn't help. He's been to the store three times on this project to compare.
What do expert handymen use? We are stumped and don't want to keep buying more products and then throwing them away.

- how to choose weather stripping
I like the kind that foam covered by a vynil coated coth. It is in a Lazy Z shape and can bend when the door closes against it.
One leg is smaller and fits in slot in the door casing. Look at a new door and you will see what I am talking about.
For retro fit you can get wood strip with the weather stripping installed.
This is what I am talking about. But you want it already mounted.

Calling for Protest in Israel
After years of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic indoctrination, in the schools and general media, it is not realistic to believe that the Palestinians desire what the President told the Israelis to desire: "A future in which Jews, Muslim and Christians can all live in peace and greater prosperity in this Holy Land." And maybe that is why the President did not say it to the Palestinians.
President Obama's visit to Israel, and particularly his speech to 500 university students, was a winner at many levels including one he probably had not even considered. In how many countries can the President of the United States call forth the passions of the local people and have confidence that he is calling forth the "better angels"? He did it in Israel.
The President touched on deeply felt emotions for Israelis, worked hard at erasing the faux pas of relating Israel's national origins to the Holocaust, twice declined to call Israeli settlements "illegal" while standing next to PA leader Mahmoud Abbas, and he praised Israeli technology, ingenuity, democracy and culture. Remarking on the upheaval in the Arab world he said, "So much of what people in the region are seeking is happening here (Israel)."
Yes, that is something he should have said in Cairo or Ramallah. And yes, he called for a "two state solution" that has little chance of success. And yes, yes, he made false analogies between Palestinians and Israelis. And yes, yes, yes, he called Abbas, whose single elected term expired in 2009 and who has been increasingly repressive and willing to incite against Israel and the U.S., a "partner." And no, Israel cannot "reverse an undertow of isolation," that is generated by other people in other lands who do not accept that, at the end of any "peace process," Israel will still exist.
But okay. Those are things that should have been and were expected from President Obama. It was also expected that he would encourage his youthful, carefully selected, leftish college student audience to push the rightish government of Israel to do what he could not convince Prime Minister Netanyahu to do. He directly asked the audience to pressure its government.
In full campaign mode, Mr. Obama told them, "Speaking as a politician, I can promise you this: political leaders will not take risks if the people do not demand that they do. You must create the change that you want to see. (People can) overcome a legacy of mistrust that they inherited from their parents… Your voices must be louder than the extremists who would drown them out. Your hopes must light the way forward."
That is a call to protest, to political insurrection. The interesting part is that he assumed igniting a political firestorm in Israel would have a positive effect.
Unspoken -- maybe because the President had not expressly thought it -- was that if young Israelis "do it," if they "create the change they want to see," what they create will be a force for good. He assumed without saying it that the voices they would raise would be voices for peace. He assumed without saying it that Israeli hopes are hopes for peace. And he is right, although it should be said that hopes for peace reside all along the Israeli political spectrum. Those of the right want peace no less than those of the left; they just have different levels of skepticism.
But what if it is not peace in the hearts of the people, but something malign?
Mr. Obama referenced his Cairo speech to the Israelis. "Four years ago, I stood in Cairo in front of an audience of young people. Politically, religiously, they must seem a world away. But the things they want -- they're not so different from you. The ability to make their own decisions; to get an education and a good job; to worship God in their own way; to get married and have a family. The same is true of the young Palestinians that I met in Ramallah this morning, and of young Palestinians who yearn for a better life in Gaza. That is where peace begins -- not just in the plans of leaders, but in the hearts of people."
Certainly the beginning of the Arab uprising in Tunis and in Tahrir Square was focused on jobs and justice (although not on "peace" with Israel or anyone else). But the result was not the flowering of education, work and peaceful relations. It was the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood, violence and the collapse of the Egyptian economy. And clearly many of the Brotherhood's supporters are young Egyptians. Intolerance for Egypt's Coptic citizens and the increasing violence in several cities attest to the dangers of calling for changes in or of government. Without wanting a return to the repression of the old government, it is safe to say that the revolution did not bring forth a better one.
Calling for an uprising in Pakistan does not seem like a great idea.
If the President told young Palestinians in Ramallah to demand that the PA "take risks" in "voices louder than" the opposition, it is likely that the Fatah government of Mahmoud Abbas would fall to the more radical and more popular Hamas. After years of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic indoctrination in the schools and the general media, it is not realistic to believe that Palestinians desire what the President told Israelis to desire: "A future in which Jews, Muslims and Christians can all live in peace and greater prosperity in this Holy Land." And maybe that is why the President did not say it to the Palestinians.
President Obama, perhaps inadvertently, made the case for U.S.-Israel relations grounded in the most fundamental shared values. Israel -- like the United States -- is that rare country in which the government does not fear the protest of the people, and the people do not fear protesting.

"Being a sperm of Israel in Turkey means... to get used to living on hate speech, insults and curses every day; held accountable for every act of the Israeli government although you may never even have stepped foot in Israel; treated as a 'foreigner' in the country where you were born, served in the military and you pay taxes." — Vedat Haymi Behar, digital marketing solutions coordinator, in Radikal.
Salmond's Legacy for Scotland: Civil War
by Malcolm Lowe
The losers are declaring war on all who disagree with them. They have adopted Salmond's attempts to pit one part of the population against another: not just young against old, but manual workers against the middle classes, city slum dwellers against country people, men against women, any section of the population that preferred Yes against another section that did the opposite.
The foolish devotion of Labour councilors to Palestinian militancy paved the way for nationalist mania.
Anjem Choudary, in His Own Words
by Soeren Kern
"In the Quran it is not allowed for you to feel sorry for non-Muslims. I don't feel sorry for him." — Anjem Choudary.
"Eventually the whole world will be governed by Shari'ah & Muslims will have authority over China Russia USA etc This is the promise of Allah." — Anjem Choudary.
"Under the Koran the sale of alcohol is prohibited and if one were to also drink alcohol, that would be 40 lashes." — Anjem Choudary.
"We [Muslims] take the Jizya, which is ours anyway. The normal situation is to take money from the kuffar [non-Muslim]. They give us the money. You work, give us the money, Allahu Akhbar. We take the money." — Anjem Choudary.
Why State Dept. Defends UNRWA's Artificial "Refugee" Designations
by Steven J. Rosen
The U.S. State Department has chosen to act as UNRWA's patron and the protector of its mission, perpetuating and expanding the refugee issue as a source of conflict against Israel.
Apparently more Israeli houses hurt peace, but multiplying the number of refugees is fine.

Racing: Murphy banned for King George
Tuesday 14 December 2004
Timmy Murphy's near-perfect start to his association with the Martin Pipe stable has suffered a second setback after the last-fence fall of Our Vic at Cheltenham on Saturday. The jockey was found guilty of "improper riding" in a minor race at Plumpton yesterday and banned for seven days that include some of the most important races of the jumping year.
Timmy Murphy's near-perfect start to his association with the Martin Pipe stable has suffered a second setback after the last-fence fall of Our Vic at Cheltenham on Saturday. The jockey was found guilty of "improper riding" in a minor race at Plumpton yesterday and banned for seven days that include some of the most important races of the jumping year.
Murphy will be unable to ride in the King George VI Chase at Kempton on Boxing Day, a race in which he would have partnered Our Vic or Therealbandit, and will also miss the ride on Beef Or Salmon when he meets Best Mate in the Lexus Chase at Leopardstown on 28 December.
For a jockey who is renowned for his sympathetic attitude to horses, there is a some irony that the ban should be for an act of intolerance towards one of his mounts. Murphy, 29, threw his whip at the horse Semi Precious in frustration after a fall. The Paul Keane-trained six-year-old had been going well in a two-and-a-half-mile handicap chase but had jumped right on several occasions and fell four out.
A frustrated Murphy got up and flung his whip at the rear of the horse with his left hand, striking it on the hind quarters as it galloped away.
The stewards found him guilty of "improper riding, in that Murphy had attempted to strike his horse when it got to its feet". They suspended him for seven days, from 26 December to 1 January inclusive.
The stipendiary steward, Richard Westrop, said: "We have found him guilty under the improper-riding rule, which applies whether or not the jockey is mounted on the horse."
Murphy, who rode a double for Pipe during the afternoon on Locksmith and Royal Hector, was fuming afterwards and offered a terse "no comment".
Murphy's agent, Chris Broad, believes the rider will appeal against the decision. "He'll need to take advice, but I can't see him not appealing," he said.
"Timmy cares about horses - everybody says he is too sympathetic, and most people knock him because he is not hard enough on horses. Everybody can see he went to catch the horse and missed it.
"The other day, with Our Vic, he didn't leave it [after its fall] until he knew the horse was OK, and he tried to catch this horse as well. I'm very unhappy," Broad added, "that Timmy seems to have been branded as someone who will beat up a horse. It just didn't happen."
This weekend's highlight is the Ascot meeting transferred to Windsor and Baracouda has been installed as the 1-3 favourite by Cashmans to record a fourth success in the Long Walk Hurdle on Saturday.
The brilliant French gelding will face a maximum of nine rivals in the Grade One race, which will be run at the Thamesside track for the first time while Ascot is under rubble as it continues its redevelopment.
"Baracouda has come out of his run at Newbury in superb form and I'm very happy with him," his trainer, François Doumen, said yesterday.
The nine-year-old had Tony McCoy on board for the first time at Newbury when he had three-quarters of a length to spare over Crystal D'Ainay, who is to reoppose on Saturday.
Frank Berry, racing manager to Baracouda's owner, JP McManus, added: "It's always hard to judge with Baracouda because he doesn't do a lot in front, but I think Crystal D'Ainay is an improving, up-and-coming horse and he'd be entitled to put it up to him.
Long Walk Hurdle (Ascot, Saturday) Cashmans: 1-3 Baracouda, 7-1 Crystal D'Ainay, 8-1 Rule Supreme, 10-1 Sh Boom, 14-1 Telemoss, Ilnamar, 25-1 It Takes Time, 33-1 Geos, 50-1 Kadara, Knock Down.

BP oil spill damage claims exceed $1B
Published: January 10,2013
Tags: accident, class-action lawsuit, contaminate, contamination, court, damage, death, disaster, disaster recovery, energy, environment, explosion, fatality, judicial, judiciary, justice, law, lawyer, legal, loss, natural gas, offshore drilling, Oil, oil spill, oilrig, petroleum, pollution, ppenalty
ACROSS MISSISSIPPI — Businesses and individuals who claim BP's oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico cost them money have been paid more than $1 billion through the company's class-action settlement with a team of private plaintiffs' attorneys, court-supervised claims administrator Patrick Juneau said.
Juneau said the payments reached the $1-billion mark before the end of 2012. He also said 95 percent of claimants who were offered payments decided to accept them.
"I feel this high rate of acceptance reflects the fairness of the settlement amounts as well as the fairness of the claims process," Juneau said in a statement.
The court-supervised claims process was established in June 2012. It replaced the Gulf Coast Claims Facility led by Kenneth Feinberg. Juneau said an additional $404 million in claims were paid during the transition from the GCCF to his program.
BP estimates it will pay roughly $7.8 billion to resolve more than 100,000 claims through the settlement, which received U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier's final approval last month. But the settlement isn't capped.
Juneau said his staffers have handled more than 223,000 calls about the settlement and received more than 97,000 claims.
The deadline for claim forms to be filed for the settlement's Seafood Compensation Program is Jan. 22. BP agreed to pay $2.3 billion for seafood-related claims by commercial fishing vessel owners, captains and deckhands.
The deadline for filing all other claims is April 22, 2014.
Barbier gave preliminary approval to the agreement in May 2012. Since then, thousands of people have opted out of the deal to pursue their claims individually.
The agreement also calls for paying medical claims by cleanup workers and others who say they suffered illnesses from exposure to oil or chemicals used to disperse it.
The April 2010 blowout of BP's Macondo well off the southeast Louisiana coast triggered an explosion aboard the rig Deepwater Horizon that killed 11 workers. More than 200 million gallons of oil spilled from the well before it was capped months later.

The staff went out of their way to make us welcome and accommodate special requests
Neighborhood feel, large room, privacy, proximity to Central Park and subway, treats stocked daily.
Bathroom was a bit small for two.
Snacks were very good and of good quality. Room was very nice and spa area was spacious.
Jacuzzi is on a timer and couldn't be used past 11:00 at night. No heater on jacuzzi and hot water heater was not adequate for size of the tub. Plumbing was broken on the shower and shower head could not be adjusted or moved had to remain stationary.
I loved the owners and the fact that this is not a normal hotel. The room was very spacious and well kept. They provided fresh food everyday for us and it was always different. We loved it!
We loved the location, breakfast and snacks, and the decor. It was clean, cosy, and romantic.
Large room, clean, nice people
too many different locks for the assorted keys.
Everything, 1st Class operation with an excellent staff. Very clean, luxurious room.
A lovely oasis in the midst of Manhattan. It was as though we were staying in our own cottage amidst the bustle of Manhattan.
Nothing not to like. Just reserve with the knowledge that the Inn New York City is not a chic-chic place to be seen and to see others. It is a quiet place in which to retreat each day and relax each night.

Tragic accident a statistical anomaly
Elderly driver's fatal collision shocking, rare
The woman killed in a head-on crash Wednesday on Inkster Boulevard was 97 years old. But Manitoba Public Insurance says older drivers are, statistically, the safest drivers on the road.
Drivers 65 and older account for the lowest proportion of motorists involved in collisions, MPI says.
"Seniors are the least involved in collisions," said MPI spokesman Brian Smiley. "They don't drive as many kilometres, they drive shorter distances, and they drive during the daylight."
In 2011, 16 per cent of all fatal collisions in Manitoba involved drivers over the age of 65, while 24 per cent of all fatal collisions involved a driver between the ages of 16 and 24.
The RCMP said a car heading west on Inkster was being driven erratically Wednesday and collided with an eastbound pickup truck stopped at the traffic light at Roy Roche Drive.
The force of the collision sent the pickup into another pickup truck stopped behind it.
The driver of the car was pronounced dead at the scene.
Occupants of the pickup trucks suffered minor injuries and did not require hospital treatment.
MPI does not require mandatory testing for drivers within any specific age group unless they have been previously suspended.
Last year, 5,000 medical suspensions were handed out to drivers, half of whom were over the age of 60.
Doctors in Manitoba are required to report any health concerns affecting a person's driving ability. MPI then reviews the driver's medical conditions.
"Sometimes people need to be put on medication, or they need to get glasses, or drive in daylight only," said Smiley. "One of the last resorts is to take away a driver's licence. But we work very closely with senior communities."
MPI is affiliated with Safety Services Manitoba's Mature Driver Workshop, a free workshop for senior drivers to refresh their driving skills.
Safety Services sets up workshops in Winnipeg and rural areas throughout Manitoba so drivers can learn about new road laws and defensive driving.
So far this year, 877 seniors have taken the course. Nearly 1,900 registered for the program in 2012.
"It all depends on the individual and their ability to drive -- it's not a factor of age," said Judy Murphy, president and CEO of Safety Services Manitoba.
"If we are (more) aware of ourselves and other people on the road, the safer we'll be."
As a result of their program, senior drivers keep their keys in the ignition and their wheels on the pavement longer.
"It's important that drivers on the roadway have a proper driver's licence and that they follow the rules of the road," said RCMP spokeswoman Sgt. Line Karpish. "As long as a person has a driver's licence, we're under the presumption the driver is allowed to be on the road."

McCrory to give up donations tied to paving fraud
