salem witch trials blog post 3

The 1690 Salem witch trials were caused by the moldy rye i believe. i just don´t think there is enough evidence to accuse all of those people, innocent or not of causing the Salem witch trials. However there does seem to be enough evidence to put the moldy rye and the LSD drug as prime causes for the 1690 Salem with trails.
Yes, there was some people confess, but that could´ve been the best answer for that time in 1690. however, did they ever find an actual person with enough evidence to say that he/she was the cause of the 1690 Salem witch trails. They did find enough evidence to bring the LSD drug and the moldy ry substances into effect. Shared by (Rebecca Endicott)  ¨Today, the most promising theory is one first floated in the 1970s, when a young psychology student named Linnda Caporael noticed the similarities between the girls’ symptoms and the effects of the drug LSD.¨  To sum up Something tells me that the LSD drug has some effect with the Salem witch trials. 
¨According to PBS, experts now believe that the symptoms were caused by ergot, a fungus that can taint rye grain crops, especially if the harvest season is humid.¨  However now people believe the symptoms were caused by moldy rye and if you ask me i would have to agree. the experts that documented all of this are spot on if you ask me. 
To end my post, i find it very hard not to believe the facts that have been discovered recently about the LSD drug and the Moldy rye being the reason of the Salem witch trials. i come to believe that because they are spot on with their documents of data where as they had no final person the could accuse in  the 1690s of the Salem Witch trials.

The census is what tells us how many people we have in this nation and in each of our states. How ever it is hard to find out exactly how many people we do have if not everyone completes the tasks of filling a census ballet out.

According to NY times ¨For the first time, it will be conducted largely online instead of by mail.¨  They have decided to conduct the census for 2020 online instead of paper. I believe it is a better decision because you have those people that wont fill them out just because they don´t want to go to where ever it is and fill it out. However now though they can do it on their phone or tablet or their laptop now. I honestly think they will get more done by the internet. 

Still according to NY times John H. Thompson “The career staff at the Census Bureau are really, really good and really committed to an accurate count,” he said. “They will do the best job they can for the money and public cooperation they get.”
Still, he added, “There’s an issue with funding, and there’s an issue with operational readiness. And there’s an issue with accuracy.”  He feels as if they will do a good job and not have many problems but their will be some difficulties, but like everything there is difficulties with anything and everything. I honestly think moving it to online is probably the best idea and we will get a better outcome of it being on the internet.

My one word for 2018

Joy has many explanations and meanings to the one word. Joy can be good and joy can be upsetting but most think of it as joy. i chose joy for my word of 2018, i need to show more joy to people in 2018.

In 2017 i had hardly any joy, i was never happy really and came off in a bad mood most of the time. the meaning of joy is ¨a feeling of great pleasure and happiness. i chose this word because in 2018 i want to show more joy to the world and have more of an impact on peoples lives in 2018. i feel as if i show joy to people then they will have a better day and then they will show joy to others as well.

Back in 2015 i lost my best friend to a car accident, after that wreck i lost all of my trust, all of my joy, and a lot of my happiness. It took me a while to get my trust and happiness back but for some reason i just couldn´t get the joy back in my life that i had before that wreck. So i made a commitment that in 2018 i would get my joy back and show it to others. i want this whole world to have joy and i feel as if i show joy then others will.

In conclusion i chose joy for many reasons, but the one main reason i chose it is because it is something that i need to gain back and start showing more this year. i have a plan to do that and share my joy with others, everywhere. who knows it could change someones day by just saying ¨hi how are you.¨
