mean that

“Pardon me, sir: I wonder if you could help me?” I turned and glared. The woman had been all brightness with her classic request, but my stare made her falter.

“You’ll think I’m stupid, I guess — I locked my keys inside the car.”

“I can’t pick locks.”

“Oh, I didn’t mean that! My motel is just across the bridge. I was wondering if you’d run me over there, if you’re going that way. I have another key in my suitcase.”

It is small sport shooting the bird who perches on the muzzle of your gun, but what hunter could keep from doing it?

“All right.”

The whole situation was without appeal, and as I drove Miss Peggy Rankin (her name) over the bridge from Ocean City to the mainland, I was made more desultory by the fact that I guessed she didn’t deserve to be so severely judged. She appeared to be fairly intelligent, and indeed, had I been her husband I should doubtless have been proud that my wife still retained such trimness and spirit at age forty. But I was not her husband, and so I made no such allowances: she was a forty-year-old pickup, and only the most extraordinary charm could survive that classification.

I recall a fine anecdote

For example, I recall a fine anecdote about the first murder ever committed by white folks in Colonial Maryland. It happened not long after the original settlers disembarked from the Ark and the Dove in 1634: Fellow killed his wife, or vice-versa. No problem apprehending the murderer, who obligingly confessed at once. The trouble was, there were no courts to try him in, no statutes to try him under, and no jails to sentence him to. They had just got off the boat. So the Governor’s Council, by a rap of the gavel, turned itself into a board of inquest, took depositions, and found a true bill; then turned itself into a court, heard the case, and found the defendant guilty of murder; then turned itself into a legislative body and ruled that murder is against the law; then turned itself back into a court and sentenced the guilty party to hang; then commuted the sentence lest there be, in all this improvising, some miscarriage of justice. That solved their problem; my problem is an occupational hazard of storytellers: I can’t remember now how much of this story is history and how much is fiction.

Fictitious history is something that my LETTERS novel is more or less about: false documents, falsified documents, forged and doctored letters, mislaid and misdirected letters and the like, in the history of History. But I would rather you read the novel than listen to me talk about it.

blog:Facebook use entraps students in a vicious cycle of jealousy

Posted in Uncategorized on August 27th, 2009 by admin – 14 Comments

College students who spend most of their time on Facebook are more likely to feel jealous toward their romantic partners, which later traps them into a vicious cycle of envy, according to a study.

Such a tendency leads students to spend more time on Facebook as they search for additional information that will further fuel their jealousy, in an escalating cycle that may become addictive.

Researchers at the University of Guelph (Ontario, Canada) surveyed young adults involved in romantic relationships.

They found that those who spent time on social networking sites, such as Facebook, may be exposed to information about their partners that makes them jealous, leading them to spend more time involved in online surveillance and to uncover even more jealousy-provoking information.

The study has described a vicious cycle in which Facebook use and feelings of jealousy become intertwined, and have a negative influence on behaviour and relationships.

Some participants in the study described their increasing use of Facebook as “addictive”.

The authors have recommended further research to explore this feedback loop and to determine whether a similar relationship between online social networking and jealousy toward a partner affects older adults as well.

blog: Malaysia delays caning beer woman

Posted in Uncategorized on August 26th, 2009 by admin – 1 Comment

Kartika Sari Dewa Shukarno pleaded guilty to the offence under Malaysia’s Islamic law and was to have received six strokes of a rattan cane this week.

She will be the first woman in Malaysia to be punished in such a way, but has not appealed against her sentence.

Malaysia’s majority Malays are subject to Islamic laws, while the large Chinese and Indian minorities are not.

Confusion

A van picked her up from her northern Malaysian home on Monday, to put her in detention so that she could be caned sometime this week.

But an official in charge of religious affairs, Mohamad Sahfri Abdul Aziz, intervened at the last minute, reportedly for compassionate reasons on the advice of the attorney general.

It was initially reported that her sentence had been overturned and Ms Kartika would not be caned.

The caning is now to be carried out around mid-September after Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting and prayer, ends.

There has also been confusion about Malaysia’s rules governing the conditions of caning.
