	Crushing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Death by crushing or pressing, as a method of execution, has a long and bloody history, and the techniques to achieve this end varied greatly from place to place.
		The most famous victim in the United Kingdom was the Catholic martyr Saint Margaret Clitherow, who was pressed to death on March 25, 1586, after refusing to plead to the charge of having harboured priests in her house (in order to avoid a trial in which her own children would be obliged to give evidence).
		The most famous victim of peine forte et dure in American history was Giles Corey, who was pressed to death on September 19, 1692, during the Salem witch trials, after he refused to enter a plea in the judicial proceeding.

		In hot pressing it is absolutely necessary to load and close the press and to apply full pressure as quickly as possible, otherwise the glue lines, particularly those adjacent to the platens will dry or cure without adequate pressure and a defective (precured) joint will resultBaldwin (1981).
		Pressing times range from less than 4 minutes up to 10 to 15 minutes depending upon the thickness of the plywood assemblies, the type and rate of cure of the glue, and the percentage of cure required.

		As Janie explains, pressing not only provides a means by which you can preserve blossoms; it can also serve as a way to record your garden’s evolution from year to year.
		According to Janie, the best flowers for pressing are those with a single layer of petals, such as cosmos and delphinium, while thicker flowers, such as peonies, lilies, and large roses, generally are not good candidates.
		Some of the flowers she recommends pressing from Martha’s garden include Virginia blue bell tulips, pink miniature roses, perennial geraniums, and forget-me-nots, while Janie uses a dwarf Jacob’s ladder from her own garden to demonstrate the process.
