  • It's Halloween Time: Werewolves and Jack-O'-Lanterns!
    ©2020 Piranha Marketing, Inc It’s Halloween Time: Werewolves and Jack-o'-lanterns! The carved pumpkin, lit by a candle inside, is one of Halloween's most prominent symbols, and is commonly called a Jack-o'-lantern. These lanterns were originally carved from a turnip or rutabaga, although they used skulls in the Celtic ceremonies. The carving of pumpkins is associated with Halloween in North America, where pumpkins were readily available and much larger, making them easier to carve than turnips. The carved pumpkin was originally associated with harvest time in general in America and did not become specifically associated with Halloween until the mid-to-late 19th century. Anthropologists date the lore of werewolves to various points in history, with some citing as the first written account the Biblical story of Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. He was condemned by an angel to live like a wild animal for seven years. His hair grew long, and his fingernails grew to resemble claws. In one ancient Greek legend, Zeus turned King Lycaon into a wolf, thus spawning the term "lycanthrope" for "werewolf." According to legend, humans turn into werewolves after being cursed, bitten by another werewolf or by consuming the raw flesh of a rabid wolf. Brad Steiger, author of The Werewolf Book, theorizes that people are attracted to the notion of werewolves because it plays out desires for power and revenge. "The werewolf tradition sought to release the beast within and accomplish the transformation of human into wolf." “This Person Does Not Exist” This is a VERY interesting website. The ability of AI to generate fake visuals is not yet mainstream knowledge, but a new The Niagara Clean & Healthy Team website.

  • (July-November 1863) Lincoln's Popularit
    Chapter Thirty-one “The Signs Look Better”: Victory at the Polls and in the Field (July-November 1863) Lincoln’s popularity soared after the victories at Gettysburg, Vicksburg, and Port Hudson. His old friend from Illinois, Jesse W. Fell, reflected the changed public mood. In August, Fell told Lyman Trumbull that during the early stages of the war, “I did not like some things that were done, and many things that were not done, by the present Administration.” Along with most “earnest, loyal men, I too was a grumbler, because, as we thought, the Gov't. moved too slow.” But looking back, Fell acknowledged that “we are not now disposed to be sensorious [sic] to the ‘powers that be,’ even among ourselves.” To the contrary, “it is now pretty generally conceded, that, all things considered, Mr. Lincoln's Administration has done well.” Such “is the general sentiment out of Copperhead Circles.” Lincoln had been tried, and it was clear “that he is both honest and patriotic; that if he don't go forward as fast as some of us like, he never goes backwards.”1 To a friend in Europe, George D. Morgan explained that the president “is very popular and good men of all sides seem to regard him as the man for the place, for they see what one cannot see abroad, how difficult the position he has to fill, to keep 1 Fell to Lyman Trumbull, Cincinnati, 11 August 1863, Trumbull Papers, Library of Congress. 3378 Michael Burlingame – Abraham Lincoln: A Life – Vol. 2, Chapter 31 the border States quiet, to keep peace with the different generals, and give any satisfaction to the radicals.”2 One of those Radicals, Franklin B.

  • What's Happened to the Family Doctor? Ask Dwight Michael '78, M.D
    Summer GETTYSBURG 1994 What's Happened to the Family Doctor? Ask Dwight Michael '78, M.D. ome older readers will recognize the subject of the Norman Rockwell illustration on the cover. He (it was always he) was the kindly family doctor who had known you ever since you were "so high"—and knew the rest of your family, too. SHe was a friendly, caring presence during times of sickness or trouble, and on joyous occasions, as well. This wonderful doctor knew when it was important to examine a little girl's doll during an office visit. Not only that, he made house calls. He was a beloved and respected figure in the community. Is today's family doctor anything like him? Or has he completely vanished—blown away by threats of malpractice suits, high-tech medicine, overcrowded waiting rooms, and the higher status accorded specialists? To find the answers, Gettysburg chronicles a day in the life of Dwight Michael '78 M.D., who shares his views about being a family doctor, as well as his concerns about health-care reform. In other news, several Gettysburg College officials recently testified at a Congressional hearing on the exchange of land between the National Park Service and the College. The hearing received considerable media attention, but failed to clarify some of the issues, as the College had hoped. We present here a short but precise summary of the dispute. We hope you'll find the articles interesting, and—as always—we welcome your comments. The Editors Volume 85 Number 3 Summer 1994 GETTYSBURG Senior Editor A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A FAMILY DOCTOR Jerold Wikoff Associate Editor Emergencies, paperwork, long days, lack of time Susan Bryant (and lack of recognition) — they're all in a day's Class Notes work for today's family doctor.
