The Most Torturous Method of Execution - Drawing and Quartering

To be hanged, drawn and quartered was the penalty for high treason in medieval England, and remained on the statute book but seldom used in the United Kingdom and Ireland until abolished under the Treason Act of 1814. It was a spectacularly gruesome and public form of torture and execution, and was reserved only for this most serious crime, which was deemed more heinous than murder and other capital offences. It was applied only to male criminals, except on the Isle of Man. Women found guilty of treason were sentenced to be taken to a place of execution and burned at the stake, a punishment changed to hanging by the Treason Act of 1790 in Great Britain.

First the convict is dragged on a hurdle (a wooden frame) to the place of execution. This is one possible meaning of drawn, then he is hanged by the neck for a short time or until almost dead. After that he is disemboweled (described above) and emasculated and the genitalia and entrails burned before the condemned eyes. Finally the body beheaded and divided into four parts. Typically, the resulting five parts (i.e., the four quarters of the body and the head) were gibbeted (put on public display) in different parts of the city, town, or, in famous cases, in the country, to deter would-be traitors who had not seen the execution.

The Most Torturous Method of Execution - Impalement

Now here is probably the most painful and interesting death method. Impalement as a method of execution involves a person being pierced with a long stake. The penetration could be through the sides, through the rectum, through the vagina, or through the mouth. This method leads to a painful death, sometimes taking days. The stake would often be planted in the ground, leaving the impaled person suspended to die.

In some forms of impalement, the stake would be inserted so as to avoid immediate death, and would function as a plug to prevent blood loss. After preparation of the victim, perhaps including public torture and rape, the victim was stripped and an incision was made in the perineum between the genitals and rectum. A stout pole with a blunt end was inserted. A blunt end would push vital organs to the side, greatly slowing death. The pole would often come out of the body at the top of the sternum and be placed against the lower jaw so that the victim would not slide farther down the pole. Often, the victim was hoisted into the air after partial impalement. Gravity and the victims own struggles would cause him to slide down the pole.

This method is extremely painful and was used by Neo-Assyrian Empire, Greek empire, and Roman Empire.

Tips For Healthy Skin

Top Tips for Healthy Skin

Healthy skin is the basis of pure, natural beauty. Glowing, wrinkle-free skin is such a frequently sought-after feature that it has given rise to a multi-billion dollar global cosmetic industry. Many women seek expensive anti-aging skin treatments and plastic surgery to uphold a façade of youthful skin. However, preventative skin care measures can help you maintain a healthy complexion well into old age. Although wrinkles are an inevitable part of the aging process, they can be minimized with a regular skin care routine.

Hydrate Your Skin

Apply face moisturizer once or twice daily. Without a regular moisturizing routine, your face may become dry and cause your skin's natural oil production to overcompensate, creating oily pimples. Dehydrated skin is also unable to repair itself as efficiently after encountering sun or weather damage. In addition to using moisturizer, drink plenty of water throughout the day to ensure your skin is hydrated internally as well as externally.

Protect Your Skin

Maintain healthy skin by protecting it from harsh weather conditions and toxic habits. Wear moisturizer with SPF of 15 or greater every day, even if the weather is overcast. Harmful UV rays can cause skin damage and lead to skin cancer. Avoid cigarettes and alcohol, both of which speed up your skin's aging process and lead to more wrinkles and splotchy skin discoloration.

Nourish Your Skin

Feed your skin the vitamins and nutrients it needs by practicing healthy eating habits. Fill your diet with fruits and vegetables that are rich in minerals, vitamins, and omega oils. The best foods for healthy skin are antioxidant-rich berries, fish, low-fat dairy products, deep green vegetables, and whole grains. Eating iron-rich foods such as apricots and sesame seeds will help improve your skin tone.

Rest Your Skin

Give your skin the chance to rest and rejuvenate itself by maintaining healthy sleeping habits. Lack of sleep may reduce otherwise healthy skin's ability to produce collagen, which is a tissue protein vital to youthful skin. Poor sleeping habits can cause dark, saggy bags under the eyes and can lead to lingering rashes and skin irritations. When you don't get enough sleep, you get cranky, and your skin is no different. Remember that tired skin is unhappy, unhealthy skin.

A Heart Touching Story of a Soldier...!!!!!

Unconditional Love - Motivating Story

A story is told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in Vietnam. He called his parents from San Francisco. "Mom and Dad, I'm coming home, but I've a favor to ask. I have a friend I'd like to bring home with me." "Sure," they replied, "we'd love to meet him." "There's something you should know the son continued, "he was hurt pretty badly in the fighting. He stepped on a land mind and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to come live with us." "I'm sorry to hear that, son. Maybe we can help him find somewhere to live." "No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us." "Son," said the father, "you don't know what you're asking. Someone with such a handicap would be a terrible burden on us. We have our own lives to live, and we can't let something like this interfere with our lives. I think you should just come home and forget about this guy. He'll find a way to live on his own." At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him.

A few days later, however, they received a call from the San Francisco police. Their son had died after falling from a building, they were told. The police believed it was suicide. The grief-stricken parents flew to San Francisco and were taken to the city morgue to identify the body of their son. They recognized him, but to their horror they also discovered something they didn't know, their son had only one arm and one leg. The parents in this story are like many of us. We find it easy to love those who are good-looking or fun to have around, but we don't like people who inconvenience us or make us feel uncomfortable. We would rather stay away from people who aren't as healthy, beautiful, or smart as we are. Thankfully, there's someone who won't treat us that way. Someone who loves us with an unconditional love that welcomes us into the forever family, regardless of how messed up we are. Tonight, before you tuck yourself in for the night, say a little prayer that God will give you the strength you need to accept people as they are, and to help us all be more understanding of those who are different from us!!! There's a miracle called Friendship That dwells in the heart You don't know how it happens Or when it gets started But you know the special lift It always brings And you realize that Friendship Is God's most precious gift! Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed They lend an ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their hearts to us.

The Most Torturous Method of Execution - Boiling

Where the victim is dipped in a big bowl. This method was used in Russia and Europe 3000 years ago and they used oil, acid or water. This type is considered slow and extremely painful. This penalty was carried out using a large cauldron filled with water, oil, tar, tallow or even molten lead.

Sometimes the victim was immersed, the liquid then being heated, or he was plunged into the already boiling contents, usually head first. The executioner could then help speed their demise by means of a large hook with which he sank the person deeper. An alternative method was to use a large shallow receptacle rather than a cauldron; oil, tallow or pitch then being poured in. The victim was then partially immersed in the liquid and fried to death.
