 Against Gardner (Apollonian Bacchanalia #47)
Gardner would go on to identify seven intelligences: musical intelligence, bodily-kinesthetic intelligence, logical-mathematical intelligence, linguistic intelligence, spatial intelligence, interpersonal intelligence, and intrapersonal intelligence -- all of which are pretty much what one would expect them to be.
Gardner “empowers” people to think themselves intelligent, to pat themselves on the back and to buck the system that would disagree, without doing any of the work that allows people to not only be intelligent but, say, a great footballer.
Gardner’s theory thus provides a comfortable explanation that implicates the academic establishment -- and its hopelessly outdated insistence on facts and mathematical skill -- and avoids any implication that American fls are less intelligent.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Juliana of Norwich
She was probably a Benedictine nun, living as a recluse in an anchorage of which traces still remain in the east part of the churchyard of St. Julian in Norwich, which belonged to Carrow Priory.
It is probable that this is the manuscript cited by Francis Blomefield, the eigtheenth-century historian of Norfolk, and that a misreading of the date led to the statement that she was still living in 1442.
Attempts have been made to identify her with Lady Julian Lampet, the anchoress of Carrow, references concerning legacies to whom occur in documents from 1426 to 1478; but this is manifestly impossible.

Gardner’s statements were meant to deceive the general public into believing that removal of the feeding was in the normal course of medical practice for this severely injured woman.
My previous post showing Gardner’s connection to BWV indicates that Gardner is not, in any event, averse to dehydrating people to death–in fact, he regards such deaths as “natural.” But as it happens, he did not actually say that Maria was literally unable to absorb nutrition from her tube feedings.
Gardner says that he consulted with palliative care specialists and that they assured him that she would not suffer… I wonder if he bothered to read the first section of the Schiavo autopsy report.

Gardner had to sweat out a dangerous flop, because Rosenblum flopped a pair with a flush draw.
But on Day Four Julian reraised about seventy-five percent of the time I tried to steal the pot with a raise, but he almost never called an all-in raise by me. Leading up to this hand, I finally had the table a bit looser and talking.
