There was corporal punishment in the UK up until the 1990’s.

There was corporal punishment in the UK up until the 1990’s.  Boys would get the cane, and it could have been with trousers down or even across the bare bottom. I got it across my pants several times. Girls tended to get the slipper, and this could sometimes be across the knickers.  Mostly girls were punished by female teachers, but it was not unheard of for a senior male master to slipper a girl. She’d have to bend over, and the master would turn her skirt back.  She could get up to 6 whacks. I heard of one head-master who would spank the under 13’s over his knee across their knickers, with 8 or 9 spanks.  The over 14’s would get 8 or 9 hard whacks with the slipper across their knickers… the older you were the more you would get, and the harder it would be. This could include 6th form girls.  In the 1960’s & 1970’s with more permissiveness, older school-children would flout the rules more, earning more canings & slipperings.

Many rumors have been told about the young Queen Marie The rumors abounded that Queen Marie Antoinette was sexually voracious with little care for how she satisfied these desires. The accusation was that she had a taste beautiful ladies, of the French court.  This one had remained a popular one throughout her reign. One  pamphlet that circulated about her showed Marie Antoinette portrayed in an amorous embrace with the Queen's then favorite the Duchess de Polignac. Oh what delicious gossip the people would spread about when was endless.  One rumor that has survived the ages had been that famous saying "Let them eat cake". Which she never uttered a day in her life.

Since Florida wants to pretend history didn't happen, here is a random image I came across and its history. Hungarian SS guards, exhausted from their forced labour clearing the bodies of the dead at Bergen-Belsen, are allowed a brief rest by British soldiers but are forced to take it by lying face down in one of the empty mass graves, 1945.  The British were horrified by what they found at Bergen-Belsen and forced the Hungarian SS to bury the dead without using protective gloves. Most of them contracted typhus (which is spread by lice) and died. This is a famous quote from BBC journalist Richard Dimbleby, who was present at the liberation of this very camp. "Here over an acre of ground lay dead and dying people. You could not see which was which…  The living lay with their heads against the corpses and around them moved the awful, ghostly procession of emaciated, aimless people, with nothing to do and with no hope of life, unable to move out of your way, unable to look at the

Columbus enslaves the Arawak and commits genocide

Columbus enslaves the Arawak and commits genocide Columbus and his men round up Arawak men, women, and children and enclose 550 of them in pens and four caravels bound for the slave market of southern Spain during his second voyage to the New World. Approximately 200 perish during the passage, and their bodies are cast into the sea. After the survivors are sold as slaves in Spain, Columbus later writes: “Let us in the name of the Holy Trinity go on sending all the slaves that can be sold” (Resendez, 2016). Additionally, while in Haiti, Columbus orders all Natives 14 years or older to collect a certain amount of gold every three months, an impossible task since there is so little gold there. If Arawak Natives do not collect enough, Columbus has their hands cut off and tortures them. Bartolome de las Casas, a young priest, witnessed many atrocities committed by Spaniards against Native peoples. He later wrote: “I saw here cruelty on a scale no living being has ever seen or expects

JEWISH CHILDREN TO BE SLAUGHTERED

JEWISH CHILDREN TO BE SLAUGHTERED, children in the Dombrova Ghetto in Poland, 1941 Photo: Yad Vashem. Dombrowa Gornicza was a town near Sosnowiec.   Jews settled in the area in the 1820's.  By 1931, the Jewish population was in excess of 5,000 out of a total population of about 37,000.   The Germans occupied the town on September 3, 1939, and formed a Judenrat in November.   Refugees from Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Silesia increased the Jewish population to over 6,000.   Many of the Jews were sent to labor camps in Germany, and over 2,000 were mobilized for work in local businesses supplying the German army.   Deportations to Auschwitz started in May 1942, and the ghetto was created later that year.  When the camp was liquidated, there were about 1,000 Jews remaining, and they were sent to the ghetto in Sosnoweic and from there to Auschwitz.

When Liberation Meant Demonization: France’s “Ugly Carnivals”

When Liberation Meant Demonization: France’s “Ugly Carnivals” After France was liberated from German occupation, many within the country borrowed Nazi tactics to publicly shame women. From 1940 to 1944, Nazi Germany occupied northern and western parts of France, in what to this day remains a source of deep humiliation for the country. Moments after France was liberated in the summer of 1944, celebration expanded to include demonization, with Allied victors engaging in some of the same revenge tactics against women as their enemies. Many French women believed to have had children or collaborated with German occupiers were publicly humiliated. Sometimes this meant having their heads shaved; other times -- even in addition to head shavings -- it meant public beatings. The decision to shave a women's head is The decision to shave a woman's head is imbued with gender power dynamics. In the dark ages, the Visigoths removed a woman's hair to punish her for committing a

CLIFFORD HOYT: THE MAN WHO HAS SEEN HELL

Image
CLIFFORD HOYT: THE MAN WHO HAS SEEN HELL I immediately make a premise. Many Paranormal groups report news similar to the one I am about to publish, about a certain Harry Hoyt, aged 31, who died in 1999 a few days after having an accident from which he woke up saying he saw Hell (and they put a scene from the movie “Hellraiser 2” as a photo). Well, what I found in my research is very different, although the common thread is the same. So it's up to you to decide which version is the right one (assuming one of the two is true). Let's go to the facts. The protagonist is Clifford Hoyt (not Harry: Harry Hyot is an American filmmaker to me), 31 who suffered serious injuries in a car accident due to icy asphalt in 1999, on his way home after a long day at work in Maryland. . He remained in a coma for a few hours and when he regained consciousness, he revealed to the nurse that he was looking after him that he had been sucked into a vortex that led him straight to Hell. He told of the p

What are the weirdest experiments performed throughout history?

What are the weirdest experiments performed throughout history? Nicolae Minovici was a Romanian scientist who was obsessed with finding out what happens to the human body during a hanging. In fact, he wrote an essay in which he analyzed almost 200 cases of people who had been hanged, and the factors that influenced, such as the type of knot of the rope, the weight and even the gender of the person. Minovici, he was not happy with just "reading" about people who had been executed in this way, he wanted to know how he really felt, so (and to answer your question) he started a series of quite strange experiments and above all dangerous. First he did some preliminary tests with a rope that did not contract, he hung himself 6 times a few seconds to get used to it, but as Minovici himself wrote in his notes: "The pain was almost intolerable" Still, he was determined to experience what it felt like to be hanged, so he leveled up. He and some of his collaborators put their

Babies have superpowers

Image
Babies have superpowers Babies actually have them. And surprisingly, they lose them as they get older. You probably know the grasping reflex of newborns. You hold out your little finger and it has a firm grip. Moms with long hair can tell you a thing or two about it. It just won't let go of the hair. Did you know that the grip is so strong that the baby can carry its own weight on a pull-up bar? This reflex is believed to be a holdover from the primate days of humans. If you watch monkeys holding onto their mother while she jumps up another tree....it's possible. The baby can do that for a few months, then loses that power and has to painstakingly retrain it later. - The next superpower is incredible. If a small child loses a fingertip in an accident ( for example, the famous car door), it can grow back. A Washington orthopedic surgeon had a little patient who stupidly stuck her finger in the spokes of the bicycle her brother was riding. Her finger limb was seve

The My Lai Massacre was a clear violation of international law and the rules of war

Image
Note: this post is not to promote violence but we remember the past to correct the future Graphic photos ahead! The My Lai Massacre was a clear violation of international law and the rules of war, which prohibit the targeting of civilians. Lieutenant William Calley, as the officer in charge of the soldiers who carried out the massacre, was held responsible for the killings.  He was charged with murder and eventually found guilty. However, many have argued that Calley was a scapegoat for the actions of his superiors, who had encouraged a policy of aggressive tactics against the Vietnamese population. The incident sparked a wider debate about the role of military leaders in such atrocities and the need for accountability for war crimes. The My Lai Massacre was a tragic event that occurred during the Vietnam War on March 16, 1968. American soldiers, under the command of Lieutenant William Calley, carried out the massacre, which involved the indiscriminate killing of unarmed Vietnamese civ

The Experiences of Those Imprisoned at Auschwitz-Birkenau

The Experiences of Those Imprisoned at Auschwitz-Birkenau Life at Auschwitz-Birkenau was brutal and dehumanizing. Upon arrival at the camp, prisoners were subjected to a selection process, in which SS doctors decided who was fit to work and who would be sent to the gas chambers. Those deemed fit for work were tattooed with a serial number and sent to the barracks, where they were given ragged uniforms and subjected to forced labor in a variety of industries, including mining, construction, and manufacturing. Conditions in the barracks were incredibly harsh, with prisoners given minimal food and water, little or no medical care, and forced to sleep on wooden planks with no bedding. The prisoners were also subjected to regular beatings and torture by the SS guards, who used a variety of methods to maintain control over the population. Prisoners at Birkenau were also subjected to the horrors of the gas chambers, where they were stripped of their clothes and belongings before bei

On September 16, 1932, in his cell at Yerwada Jail in Pune, Mahatma Gandhi began a hunger strike to protest British support of a new Indian constitution.  This constitution granted the country's lowest classes, known as "untouchables," their own separate political representation for a period of 70 years. After a six-day fast, the British government accepted the principal terms of a settlement between higher caste Indians and the untouchables, leading to the reversal of the separation decision. As India gradually moved towards independence, Gandhi's influence continued to grow. He persistently resorted to hunger strikes as a method of resistance, recognizing that the British government would be unable to withstand the pressure generated by public concern for the man they referred to as Mahatma, or "Great Soul." On January 12, 1948, Gandhi undertook his final successful fast in New Delhi, aiming to persuade Hindus and Muslims in the city to work towards peace.

3000 years ago a Marvelous underground water system was constructed in Iran, known as qanat . A qanat is an underground Aqueduct that functions as a Sustainable watermanagement  system. The construction of a qanat involves a series of carefully planned and engineered underground tunnels that tap into underground watersource, typically originating from mountains or hills. The tunnels slope gently downward, following the natural gradient of the terrain. The process of creating a qanat begins with the identification of a suitable water source, such as a groundwater reservoir. Skilled workers, often referred to as muqannΔ«s, manually excavate a vertical shaft from the surface down to the level of the water source. This shaft serves as the access point to the qanat system. Once the initial shaft is established, workers then dig horizontally along the water table to create a tunnel. The tunnel is meticulously excavated, maintaining a gentle downward slope to facilitate the flow of water. The

In late June 1941, while the German armies were racing east and capturing their targets, the Soviets were racing against time and targeting the captured.  ➡ The moment the Third Reich invaded, as many as 50,000 people were kept in dozens of prisons in the lands the USSR had annexed from Poland. Most were Ukrainians, a quarter Poles, the rest Jews, Lithuanians, Belarussians and other nationalities – the bulk put there for political reasons. The Wehrmacht was advancing fast, and the NKVD had a dilemma. ➡ They couldn’t evacuate these enemies of the people further east because that required time and a thousand railway cars they didn’t have. Their leadership came up with a solution: release ordinary felons and eliminate the political prisoners. The NKVD behaved like a dog in the manger: if they couldn’t have these people, the Germans wouldn’t have them either.  ➡ Wherever they were in a big hurry, they threw grenades into crowded cells, stabbed, axed or bludgeoned the inmates. If they had a

Bulgarian soldier and poet Geo Milev who lost his right eye in battle, 1918. Colourised by @pavloscolor. Georgi Milev Kasabov was born on January 15, 1895 in Radnevo, Bulgaria to parents who were teachers and owners of a book store. In 1912, Milev studied philosophy at Sofia University, before continuing his education at Leipzig University in Germany, where he took up poetry inspired by German expressionism. His first set of poems were published in a Bulgarian magazine in December 1913. Upon the outbreak of the First World War in July 1914, Bulgaria stayed neutral, and Milev moved to London to develop his poetry and improve his English. Milev returned to Leipzig on October 18, 1914, but was detained in Hamburg on suspicion of being a British spy. He was released after 11 days due to a lack of evidence. In August 1915, Milev returned to Bulgaria, who entered the First World War with the Central Powers on October 14, 1915. Milev's father was soon mobilized, forcing Milev to take over

Sleeping cat netsuke (miniature sculpture) made from ivory by Kaigyokusai Masatsugu (Japan, 1813-1892). The first recorded mention of cats in Japan comes from a teenage emperor in the 9th century. On March 11, 889 CE, 17 year-old Emperor Uda wrote: "On the 6th day of the 2nd Month of the First Year of the Kampo era. Taking a moment of my free time, I wish to express my joy of the cat.  It arrived by boat as a gift to the late Emperor, received from the hands of Minamoto no Kuwasahi. The color of its fur is peerless. None could find the words to describe it, although one said it was reminiscent of the deepest ink. It has an air about it, similar to Kanno. Its length is 5 sun, and its height is 6 sun. I affixed a bow about its neck, but it did not remain for long. In rebellion, it narrows its eyes and extends its needles. It shows its back. When it lies down, it curls in a circle like a coin. you cannot see its feet. It’s as if it were a circular Bi disk. When it stands, its cry exp

He was last seen when his trading canoe capsized as he was rowing through a part of the country.  Western propagandists went on propagating that the Asmats, a tribe who inhabited the area, captured, beheaded, and ate Michael.⁠ When the Asmats tribe heard this, they said: "we are not cannibals, and we do not eat humans, ~the colonizers only know how to tell lies, and if you wish to know when they are lying then just observe when their mouth πŸ‘„ is open and moving up and down" May 18, 1938, is the birthdate of Michael Rockefeller, a one-time area resident of note.

I can't find anymore who asked about the worst crime in my town!🀷 But I spent sometime Google translate and adapt the history in English so I think I have to publish it! (Sorry if it's not in perfect English) May 29, 1992 (MACABRE HISTORY) Fier, Albania. According to the report recorded by the Fier police: Shortly after midnight, when the clock struck 00:45, in the apartment of the Puto family, the authorities entered the rooms where the 8-month-old baby, Mardalena, slept. They folded the bars of the windows and removed its glass masterfully, in order to enter the room without making any noise. As a start, without asking for any explanation, the killers hit with an axe at 30-year-old Agim Puto, the youngest son in the family, who had only came from Greece a few days ago, where he had emigrated for almost 1 year. Then, the killers hit Agim's wife, only 25 years old, who, according to the police, felt the noise. She died with her hand on her forehead, to protect herself from
