Psychological abuse

**Psychological abuse** may also be called psychological violence, emotional abuse or mental abuse.

It is when a person puts another person under abuse which may result in psychological trauma. The abuse may result in anxiety, chronic depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder.  This kind of behaviour is an extreme kind of bullying.

This abuse happens most often when one person has power over another.
It may result in narcissism, depression, anxiety, and other disorders.

The term does not mean physical abuse. The most common thing to happen is verbal abuse including sexual harassment. Blaming, shaming, and name calling are signs of verbal abuse which can affect a victim emotionally.
Anniversary

An **anniversary** is a day on which people remember or celebrate an event that happened on the same date in a past year. The most common example is a birthday, where the birth of a person is celebrated every year on the month and day of which they were born. The first _anniversary_ of something is celebrated exactly one year after the initial event occurred. The word was first used for Catholic feasts to commemorate saints.

Other examples of common anniversaries are those of weddings and deaths. Having anniversaries for sad incidents can be for remembering someone special, like a famous person that touched many peoples lives or to remember a tragic incident, so that it does not happen again. Most countries around the world celebrate national anniversaries. These could be the date of independence of the nation or the adoption of a new constitution, or the coronation of a monarch.

There are different Latin names used for anniversaries depending on the number of years that has passed since the initial event. For example, _biennial_ means that two years has passed, _decennial_ means that ten years has passed, and _centennial_ means that 100 years has passed. For example, many countries have held a big celebration in the 100th anniversary of their country.

Wine (bishop)

**Wine** or **Wini** (died before 672) was a 7th century Bishop. He was the first Bishop of Winchester. He later became the Bishop of London.

## Bishop of Winchester

Wine had been ordained in Gaul. In Wessex King Cenwalh of Wessex had grown tired of his current bishop, Agilbert, who apparently did not speak the Anglo-Saxon language. Wine did speak Anglo-Saxon and was invited by Cenwalh to come to Wessex. Cenwalh built a new church at Winchester; dividing his kingdom into two dioceses. There, Wine was consecrated the first bishop of Winchester in 660. Agribert took offense at not being consulted and returned to Gaul. King Oswiu of Northumbria appointed a monk named Chad to be bishop to the Northumbrians. He sent Chad to Canterbury to be consecrated Bishop of York. On Chad's arrival in Kent, however, he discovered Archbishop Dusdedit had died. As no successor had yet been appointed, Chad went to Bishop Wine in Wessex to be consecrated. Wine was the only consecrated Bishop in England at the time recognized by the Church at Rome.

## Bishop of London

Wine was later expelled by Cenwalh and went to King Wulfhere of Mercia. Bede stated that Wine purchased the see (diocese) of London from Wulfhere. Wine remained the Bishop of London until his death.
Wine died in 671.

Rebecca Nurse

**Rebecca Towne Nurse** (13 February 1621 – July 19, 1692) was a pious 71-year-old grandmother when she was hanged as a witch in Salem Village on July 19, 1692.

Her death was the turning point in the Salem Witch Trials. People started to doubt that the accusers were being truthful about being tormented by witchcraft.

## Life

Nurse was born in Great Yarmouth, England in 1621. In 1644, her family settled in Salem Village in the Massachusetts Bay Colony (now Danvers, Massachusetts). About 1644, she married Francis Nurse, a tray-maker. They had eight children.

Rebecca and Francis Nurse were highly respected in the colony because few people could work wood into trays, cups, mugs, dishes and other useful objects.

### Land disputes and accusations of witchcraft

The Nurse family and the Putnam family (which lived in Salem) had several disputes over land. Two of the Putnams accused Rebecca of witchcraft, and she was arrested on March 23, 1692.

Many villagers were angry that Rebecca had been accused of witchcraft. She was 71 years old and known to be a very pious woman.

## Trial & execution

Her trial began on June 30, 1692. Many people testified about her good character. However, the girls who accused her testified that she was tormenting them.

Rebecca was found not guilty of witchcraft. Some wanted her found guilty and urged the judges to reconsider their verdict. They did, and she was found guilty.

She was hanged on July 19, 1692. Her body was buried near the gallows with others who were hanged for witchcraft. In the night, her relatives dug up her body. They buried it on the family homestead, which is now a landmark.

Nurse is a character in Arthur Miller's _The Crucible_.

Cwichelm of Wessex

**Cwichelm** (died circa 636) was the King of the Gewisse, although more commonly called the King of Wessex.  He reigned from 626 until his death. He was a pagan king who became a Christian shortly before his death.

## King in Wessex

Cwichelm was the son of Cynegils, King of Wessex. He ruled jointly with his father. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle for 614 says Cynegils and Cwichelm fought at a place named Beandun, which cannot be identified. The account went on to say they slew two thousand sixty-five Welsh. Another chronicle entry for 627 (corrected to 626) states an Eomer was sent by "Cwichelm, king of the West Saxons, thinking to stab king Eadwine". It goes on to say Eomer stabbed his thane, Lilla, and a Forthere but only wounding the king. The plot to kill the Northumbrian king failed and the following year Eadwine (Edwin) sent an army to punish Wessex.  The next mention of Cwichelm in the chronicle is for the year 628. It states that Cyngils, king of Wessex, and Cwichelm his son 'fought with Penda at Cirencester and came to an agreement with him there'. The agreement seems to have been to give Cirencester to Penda. In 634 Pope Honorius I sent Bishop Birinus to England. When he reached the territory of the Gewisse (Wessex) he found them almost completely pagan. He began to convert the West Saxons to Christianity. In 635 Cynegils was baptized and King Oswald of Northumbria stood as his Godfather. In 636 Cwichelm was baptised at Dorchester. He died later in the same year (636). Although he died before his father, both were succeeded by his brother Cenwalh in 643.

## Family

Cwichelm had a son:

- Cuthred (died 685), king in Wessex

File hosting service

A **file hosting service** is an Internet service that stores files for its users. It allows users to upload files that could then be accessed over the internet from a different computer, tablet, smartphone or other networked device. Depending on the file and the file sharing service, a password may be needed to access certain files. The files can possibly also be accessed by other users, depending on the service or what the user prefers.

A variation of this is **one-click hosting**, which allows users to easily upload one or more files from their hard drives (or from a remote location) on to the one-click host's server. Many web services provide free one-click hosting for image files.  This gives the file an accessible URL that can be used to identify it on the internet.

Natural science

**Natural science** is the study of the natural world around us. It tries to explain things we see in nature, like why the sky is blue, how plants grow, or what causes lightning. Scientists in this field want to describe what happens, understand why it happens, and even predict what might happen in the future. To do this, they use evidence, real information they get from watching carefully (observation) and running tests (experiments). For example, a scientist might observe how animals behave in the wild or test how different types of soil affect plant growth. To make sure their discoveries are trustworthy, scientists use two important methods. First is peer review, which means other scientists check their work to see if it makes sense and is correct. Second is reproducibility, which means other scientists should be able to repeat the same test and get the same results. These steps help science stay reliable and prevent mistakes from spreading.

Natural science is split into two big parts: life science and physical science. Life science, also called biology, is the study of living things, like plants, animals, and humans. Physical science looks at non-living things and is divided into subjects such as physics (how matter and energy work), astronomy (the study of space and stars), Earth science (the study of Earth, like rocks, weather, and oceans), and chemistry (how different substances are made and how they change). Each of these subjects can be broken down even further into smaller areas, called fields. For example, biology has fields like botany (the study of plants) and zoology (the study of animals). Natural sciences depend on evidence and careful study, so they are called empirical sciences. To make sense of the information they gather, scientists also use tools from formal sciences like math and logic. These tools allow them to turn their observations into measurements and write them as clear rules, often called the “laws of nature.” These laws describe how the world works in ways that can be tested and trusted.
Coronary artery bypass surgery

**Coronary artery bypass surgery** is a type of surgery that relieves chest pain, caused by lack of blood flow, and reduces the risk of death from heart disease. It is also known as **coronary artery bypass graft** (**CABG**, pronounced "cabbage") surgery, and known by doctors as **heart bypass** or **bypass surgery**. In this surgery, blood vessels from elsewhere in the patient's body are added to the heart vessels to go around blood vessels blocked by fat and get more blood into the heart so it can keep running. This surgery usually happens with the heart stopped, which makes machines that act as lungs and heart needed. However, it is possible to have the surgery with the heart still pumping, called "off-pump" surgery.
Puck (Shakespeare)

**Puck** is a character in a play called _A Midsummer Night's Dream_. This play was written by William Shakespeare. In this play, Puck is a servant to the Fairy King, Oberon. Puck has some amazing abilities. For example, he can travel around the world in 40 minutes. In spite of his abilities, Puck makes a few mistakes in the play that create confusion for the other characters. For example, he puts a love potion into the wrong person's eyes. He also plays tricks. He puts a donkey's head on one character.

Puck was not Shakespeare's invention. He was a character in folklore called 'pouke'. He was known as early as 1000 AD. He was an evil, dangerous demon. By the time of Geoffrey Chaucer, he had become linked with the Biblical devil. By Shakespeare's day, he was known as Puck, Robin Goodfellow, and Hobgoblin. He was a goblin who made mischief.

By the time of Shakespeare and other Elizabethan poets, Puck had become a combination of English folklore and English country life. Shakespeare writes that Puck would frighten the village girls, ruin the butter, and lead travelers in the night the wrong way. Mickey Rooney played Puck in a 1935 movie adaptation of Shakespeare's play.

Shakespeare used a description of Puck from Reginald Scot's _The Discoverie of Witchcraft_ (1584). Scot describes Puck with disapproval. He points out that people no longer believe in him. Scot also tells of a man whose head was replaced with the head of a donkey.
Shylock

**Shylock** is a key character and the antagonist in Shakespeare's 1596 or 1597 play _The Merchant of Venice_. He is a Jewish moneylender.

Shylock agrees to a bond with Antonio, the merchant of Venice. This bond requires Antonio to give a pound of his flesh next his heart should the money not be repaid on a certain date. When Antonio fails, Shylock goes to court to get the pound of flesh. Antonio had previously insulted and spat on him in the Rialto (the commercial centre of Venice). This helps to explain why Shylock demanded his _pound of flesh_.

Meanwhile, Shylock's daughter Jessica falls in love with Antonio's friend Lorenzo and converts to Christianity. This adds to Shylock's rage.

Shylock fails in court, and Antonio is released. Shylock is charged with attempted murder. Shylock is then forced to give half of his properties to the country and the other half to Antonio and to convert to Christianity.

Shylock has a famous speech beginning "Hath not a Jew eyes?" Famous actors who have played Shylock include Laurence Olivier.

In Shakespeare's time, no Jews had been _legally_ present in England for several hundred years (since Edward I's Edict of Expulsion in 1290). But the idea of Jews as money lenders remained from the Middle Ages. Historically, money lending had been a fairly common occupation among Jews, perhaps because Christians were not allowed to practise usury.
