Ryan Tucker Jones, History, and 2024–25 OHC Faculty Research Fellow. This interdisciplinary global history integrates the newest, exciting advances in whale science to reinterpret the last 500 years of human-cetacean relations. In the past decades, satellite tagging, drone footage, DNA analysis, and long-term behavioral studies have revealed whale lives in unprecedented detail. The newest cetacean science not only reveals ways that whales experienced this history, but also casts new light on the crucial global stories of colonization, industrialization, and the creation of a modern, interconnected world.

Novo Resources (TSX: NVO - OTCQB: NSRPF - ASX:NVO) is ramping up exploration at the John Bull Project in New South Wales, with a 1,500-meter RC drill program planned for June.   Executive Co-Chairman Mike Spreadborough and General Manager of Exploration Kas De Luca join us for a detailed update on Novo's growing pipeline of exploration activity across Australia. The conversation centers on the John Bull Project, where a recently extended gold-in-soil anomaly now spans 1.5 kilometers and includes multiple rock chip samples grading up to 67.9 g/t gold.   Key topics covered: Overview of the John Bull Project: Background on the asset, the significance of the soil and rock chip sampling, and how recent work has confirmed and expanded a robust gold anomaly. Upcoming drill program: A 1,500m RC program will test newly defined quartz vein arrays and multiple fault zones. Only ~300m of the anomaly has seen previous drilling. Four priority targets: John Bull Main, John Bull South, Hills Creek West, and Digger's North - all within a 1.5 km trend. Updates on other projects: Drilling has just been completed at Balla Balla (Pilbara) with results expected in 3 weeks, and drilling is underway at Tibooburra (New South Wales), also acquired in late 2024. Cash position and funding: Novo holds approximately A$9 million in cash, along with marketable securities, giving it the flexibility to continue executing across multiple projects. Visit the Novo Resources website for full project detail.

As it’s the end of the tax year John Bull and Robert Salter suggest that it’s time to move the tax year having been stuck on April 5th since 1752. Whilst Trump’s “Liberation Day” dominates international headlines there is further turmoil in the US as DOGE makes sweeping cuts to the US social security system. And here in the UK, the VAT battle on private school fees reaches the High Court. Could adding VAT to school fees be a breach of human rights?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week John Bull and Malli Kini look at the latest tax stories making headlines and it’s clearly not been a great week for some. Former Liverpool star and Sky Sports pundit Phil Thompson has more to worry about than his Club’s recent cup exits, as he’s just lost his IR35 appeal, leaving him with a hefty £300,000 tax bill. Across the pond, the US tax scene is heating up, with the Administration planning to slash the IRS workforce by 20% by mid-May, while one of President Trump’s ambitious goals is to eliminate taxes altogether for those earning under $150,000. Meanwhile, Uber’s Supreme Court appeal in July could drive up private taxi fares by 20% if VAT comes into play, so enjoy your cheap rides while you can. And finally, with the Spring Statement just around the corner, John and Malli are crossing their fingers for a quiet one.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Novo Resources Corp is preparing to identify drill targets at the John Bull and Tibooburra gold projects in New South Wales following extensive geochemical sampling. The company has collected 340 soil and 63 rock chip samples over a 1.3-kilometre trend at John Bull, while 962 soil and rock chip samples were gathered across a 2.8-kilometre trend at Tibooburra's Clone prospect. Results from the sampling are expected by mid-March 2025 and will be used to refine drill targets with high mineralisation potential. Novo has also conducted an assessment of historical data and remote geophysics at the Toolunga Project in Western Australia, identifying multiple targets for further investigation. Additionally, the company is progressing towards securing the Odette 4 Rocklea exploration application at the Cane River Project, expected to be granted in the second quarter of the 2025 financial year. Novo anticipates potential delays to drilling at its Pilbara projects due to tropical Cyclone Zelia, which could impact operations in the Karratha District, Balla Balla Gold Project and Egina JV area. The company remains focused on advancing its exploration activities and will provide updates as key milestones progress. #NovoResources #GoldExploration #MiningNews #DrillTargets #GeochemicalSampling #JohnBullProject #TibooburraGold #WesternAustralia #PilbaraMining

Dans notre mémoire collective, le personnage de Napoléon est souvent vu d'une certaine manière. Ainsi, on s'imagine volontiers l'Empereur coiffé de son célèbre bicorne et la main droite dans son gilet. On se le représente aussi comme un homme de petite taille. le "petit tondu", comme l'appelaient familièrement ses soldats, était-il donc un nabot ? En fait, il n'en est rien. En effet, Napoléon a été mesuré à plusieurs reprises au cours de sa vie. Il l'a été par son premier valet de chambre, Louis-Joseph-Narcisse Marchand. On a aussi évalué sa taille avant son voyage vers Sainte-Hélène, en 1815, et à son arrivée dans l'île. Or, ces mesures varient entre 1 mètre 68 et 1 mètre 70. Étant donné que, en 1792, la taille minimale pour être incorporé dans l'armée était d'environ 1 mètre 62, Napoléon était sans doute un peu plus grand que la moyenne des hommes de son époque. D'où vient alors cette légende de la petite taille de l'Empereur ? Elle est d'abord née de la manière dont on le représente souvent à l'époque. Sur les tableaux et les gravures, en effet, on le voit souvent entouré des grenadiers de sa garde, dont font partie les fameux "grognards". Or ces hommes sont de véritables géants pour leur époque. Ils ne sont en effet acceptés dans cette prestigieuse formation militaire que s'ils mesurent plus d'1 mètre 80. Au surplus, ils sont coiffés de ces hauts bonnets à poils qui ornent encore le chef de certains militaires anglais. Leur taille était encore grandie par ce couvre-chef. À leurs côtés, Napoléon paraissait en effet bien petit. Mais cette assertion fait aussi partie de la légende noire de l'Empereur, colportée par les Anglais, ses ennemis les plus acharnés. Le pied anglais, différent du pied français, n'accordait à Napoléon qu'une taille inférieure à 1 mètre 60. Il n'en fallait pas plus pour que les caricaturistes anglais représentent Napoléon comme une sorte d'avorton, paraissant minuscule auprès de John Bull, ce Britannique massif censé symboliser la nation anglaise.

We have the Barberena brother's in the studio this week. Brandon @code_5537 is not new to the show but Andrew decided to join in on the fun. They recently had a what was supposed to be a quick trail run up John Bull in Big Bear before grabbing lunch, turn into an all day indever. They go over the series of events of that day and any lessons that were learned. We also talk filters as Andrew works for SB Filters, how to properly wire a circuit breaker, and why you should always carry ratchet straps.

Louise Hung plays William Byrd's Earl of Salisbury's Pavan and Galiardo Secundo from 'Parthenia or the Maydenhead of the first musicke that ever was printed for the Virginalls (in England at least), composed by three famous masters: William Byrd, Dr. John Bull and Orlando Gibbons' was probably printed in 1613. Audio production by Matthew Antal. 

'Parthenia or the Maydenhead of the first musicke that ever was printed for the Virginalls (in England at least), composed by three famous masters: William Byrd, Dr. John Bull and Orlando Gibbons' was probably printed in 1613. As the chief counsellor in the last years of Queen Elizabeth I's reign and the first years of James I's, Robert Cecil, the Earl of Salisbury was at the centre of a web of political patronage, artistic patronage, and a web of spies that seems to have included musicians. John Edwards and Louise Hung talk about Salisbury's patronage of the arts, especially the art of music, his musical instrument collection and his collection of musicians. At the end of the chat you'll hear Louise play William Byrd's Pavana Earl of Salisbury and Galiardo secundo from Parthenia. Further reading: Patronage, Culture and Power: The Early Cecils ed. Pauline Croft and John Dowland by Diana Poulton.

Brockway cordially requests the presence of Seanbaby and guest, John Bull, to discuss It's a Royal Knockout! The slapstick obstacle course TV special conceived of, executed by, and starring the actual British royal family. And Walter Payton. And John Travolta. Tom Jones headshots Christopher Reeve with a ham. It cost half a billion dollars. Meat Loaf attacks a Prince. It damaged the monarchy forever. This one is impossible to describe.

Louise Hung plays William Byrd's Preludium and Galiardo Mrs. Mary Brownlo from 'Parthenia or the Maydenhead of the first musicke that ever was printed for the Virginalls (in England at least), composed by three famous masters: William Byrd, Dr. John Bull and Orlando Gibbons' was probably printed in 1613. Audio production by Matthew Antal. Virginal made by Matthew Redsell after an instrument by Johannes Perticis in the Royal Ontario Museum. 

'Parthenia or the Maydenhead of the first musicke that ever was printed for the Virginalls (in England at least), composed by three famous masters: William Byrd, Dr. John Bull and Orlando Gibbons' was probably printed in 1613. MIO's Artistic Director John Edwards talks to harpsichordist Louise Hung about the terminology of plucked string keyboard instruments in the Elizabethan and Jacobean period, how they make their sound, the association of the virginals with young women in our period and the techniques and fingering which they used and which Louise deploys to get the characteristic sprightly articulation in Mary Brownlow's Galliard and the spectacular passage work in the prelude by Byrd, both of which you'll hear at the end of our chat.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the origin of this personification of the English everyman and his development as both British and Britain in the following centuries. He first appeared along with Lewis Baboon (French) and Nicholas Frog (Dutch) in 1712 in a pamphlet that satirised the funding of the War of the Spanish Succession. The author was John Arbuthnot (1667-1735), a Scottish doctor and satirist who was part of the circle of Swift and Pope, and his John Bull was the English voter, overwhelmed by taxes that went not so much into the war itself but into the pockets of its financiers. For the next two centuries, Arbuthnot's John Bull was a gift for cartoonists and satirists, especially when they wanted to ridicule British governments for taking advantage of the people's patriotism. The image above is by William Charles, a Scottish engraver who emigrated to the United States, and dates from 1814 during the Anglo-American War of 1812. With Judith Hawley Professor of 18th Century Literature at Royal Holloway, University of London Miles Taylor Professor of British History and Society at Humboldt, University of Berlin And Mark Knights Professor of History at the University of Warwick Producer: Simon Tillotson

Welcome back to another episode of reflections - this week dive into conversations with John Bull, Owen Eastwood, Lisa Jacob and Ray Goggins. We hear from our excellent guests on the topic of Psychological Safety including: - (6:07) John Bull: Specialist in High Performance Leadership and Teams, Head of High Performance at Management Futures - (8:04) Owen Eastwood: Performance Coach, and Author of 'Belonging: The Ancient Code of Togetherness' - (15:10) Lisa Jacob: Team Manager at Hockey Ireland, and Co-Owner of Hidden Strength - (20:11) Ray Goggins: Director at Coreskill Training, Chief Instructor RTE television Special Forces Ultimate Hell Week - and author of 'Ranger 22' Our lens focuses this week on Psychological Safety first popularised by the great Amy Edmondson. This is a huge part of our current work with Hauora around enlightening, educating and empowering individuals in the performance wellbeing space in Ireland and abroad. We hope this medium allows you to take the lessons from the very best and apply them in your life. Our key takeaways from this episode are: 1 – Vulnerability and creating a space to see people for who they truly are, will allow groups of individuals to break through the glass ceilings and truly work effectively as a team 2 – We can create focus and cohesion more easily on stable teams, but what about when things are uncertain and changing? We need to create a culture that promotes teaming to navigate the ever-changing world and unpredicted challenges; 3 – Look back to understand where you're going. Note all the good in your buildup…it can help reveal your progress, to drive you on to new heights Thanks for listening and as always please rate, review, and share.

For a long time, nobody said anything. They just stood on the bank of the strange new river with the wounded as if the whispering of the water would explain what had happened. All in all, Dance thought, it could have been a whole lot worse and it probably would be before the end. Pete asked, “You want to get up a posse and go after them, Sheriff?”Dance shook his head. “Let’s figure out what we’d be raiding into before we go a-raidin’. Besides, if that boat went upriver, it will come back down. Next time we’ll be ready for target practice. As Dance thumbed rounds into his Winchester the Englishman walked up and stood next to him. Dance looked him over and said, “You got sand, Mister. But if you’re gonna pass the time out West, you best get heeled.”“Archimedes Croryton, but my friend call me Archie,” he said, holding out his hand. “Good for them,” said the Sheriff, “John Dance. What was that you were barking at them?” “Aramaic, Syriac, Latin, some Attic Greek. Anything I could think of really.” “You know what the hell they was?”“Not a clue,” answered Archie. He nodded at the body of an archer floating in the river he said, “But I know how to find out.” And started stripping off his clothes. When he reached his underwear, Archie waded into the river and swam out to the dead archer. His silken garment had billowed out around him, trapping air and giving the corpse buoyancy. Archie grabbed a handful of fabric and dragged the body back ashore. When Archie got to the mud, Dance helped him land his strange fish. As Archie caught his breath, Dance asked, “Anything familiar about this to you?”“I was hoping you would know, you’re the native.” Archie rolled the body over on its back and brushed the mud off the face. The man had a dark, olive complexion with a large, hooked nose and strange characters tattooed on his cheeks. Out of respect, Archie closed his eyes. The man’s silk garments were held at the waist with a thick belt of bronze plates. Archie asked for the Sheriff’s knife and used it to cut the shirt open. It was surprisingly tough. The man’s chest was tattooed in the same diamond pattern as his face. Archie made a close examination of the man’s hands.Dance asked, “Mr. Croryton, how’s a man like you, an educated man, wind up here?”“Sheriff, if you can tell me where here is, I’ll answer your question.”“Hell, you’re in Grantham, Arizona Territory.”Archie said, “Last night, I was reasonably certain that I arrived in Grantham. But now, I am not so sure.”“Fair enough,” said the Sheriff, “What do you make of our guest?”“My guess is this man has done little else in his life but fire a bow.”“Professional military?”“No, I am saying, this man was not merely in the army. His entire body and one might well say his being, has conformed to being an archer.” He gently turned the dead man over in the mud and pointed to the imbalance in the musculature of shoulders and arms. The right arm with a noticeably bigger biceps muscle, the left with a well-defined triceps from extending the bow. And the muscles between the shoulder blades stood out in almost chiseled detail. “He is a professional warrior. Like a Spartan or a Myrmidon.”Dance said, “I ain’t never heard of them, but were they too dumb to duck too?”“Yes, they did not react like men who had ever seen a firearm before. The question is where did they come from?”Dance spit and said, “No idea. Not yet,” as he looked grimly up the river. “Well, then you’ve got bigger questions. Who is this military power on your doorstep?”“Hardly call them military if they don’t have guns.”Archie said, “Did you not see how cool they were under attack? How they continued to nock and fire even as their commander was struck down and their comrades were dying around them?”Dance rubbed his chin. “Yeah, fair point. I was at Shiloh and others besides, and I never saw any company, North or South, that stood that straight under fire.”“Yes, your Civil War was fought by volunteer soldiers. These were warriors,” said Archie as he buttoned his shirt. Dance said, “Maybe he was a rower?” looking for a way out of the mess he was in. “A rower’s back is different,” said Archie. “How do you know that?” Archie removed his shirt once again and turned around. “I rowed crew for Oxford.” He made a rowing motion and Dance could see the imbalance in his musculature and the curve of his spine.“Mostly with the right,” said Dance.Archie flipped his shirt back up and nodded. “This man’s arms are different lengths. His left is shorter than his right. He could have been at Agincourt. But that was 1415. What’s he doing in 1888?”“In America,” added Dance. “I do just wonder about that…” said Archie.Dance bristled. “What do you mean? We took this land from the Mexicans. Maybe not so fair and square, but we signed a treaty on it.” “No, no, it’s not that. Plant whatever flag you like. I care not. What I’m saying is, if a river appeared last night to the West of Town, then what awaits us to the East? Or the North or the South?”They looked at each other for a while in the hopes that somebody would have the answer. Finally, Speedy Pete said, “Mister, you think somebody done stole Mexico?”“You mean since the Spanish?” asked Archie. “Mr. Croryton!” cried a rasping voice, “Whatever are you doing with that corpse? And where did he come from?” Archie looked up and saw Jean DuMont, strutting towards them with the aid of his nurse. Archie straightened up and tugged the bottom of his waistcoat and buttoned his suit jacket in an effort to appear presentable. “I was conducting an examination, of sorts, M. DuMont.”DuMont looked at the river and the fertile plain beyond. “Damned odd, wouldn’t you say, Mr. Croryton. A river from nowhere?”“Yes, sir.”“A lake collapsed in the mountains, you think?” asked DuMont.“Sir, I do not. This mud is of a different composition than your native soil.”“Come now, sir. Mud is mud. We will make advantage of this river and hope it lasts. Construct a silver mill, a ferry for travelers from Bisbee, charing a modest fee of course, but as for the rest… ” He nudged the dead man with his boot and said, “Just another tribe of savages.”“Sir, I must —““I appreciate your excitement, Mr. Croryton, but I am not paying you to examine the savages. Whatever tourism you engage in will be on your own time. I have a mine that is filling with water, and I am paying for you and your marvelous pumping engine to pump them out.”Archie said, “But with this unexpected development. This new… frontier… of possibility…”“The Frontier is not your business. And I assured you all those who come from Bisbee,” he nodded his head and indicated where the road to Bisbee had once been, “will be coming for my silver, not, your corpse. That is, provided the Sheriff here lets them live long enough.”“A man shoots at me, I shoot him back,” said Dance, not looking at DuMont. “I don’t pay you to philosophize, Sheriff.” “That’s O.K. Johnny,” said Dance, “You don’t pay me. The town does.”“I am this town,” said DuMont, as he checked the time on a gold pocket watch. He snapped the watch shut sharply and said, “Mr. Croryton, mining has commenced for the day, and I expect you to do the same. There is much work to be done.”DuMont walked back toward town without waiting for an answer. Giving one last look to the far side of the river, Archie said, “As you say, sir,” and followed his employer. Pete looked at Sheriff Dance. Dance said, “Pete, get on back to the jail and lock yourself in there with young Burdock.”“What are you going to do?” asked Pete.“I’m going see if that John Bull was right.”“About what?” asked Pete.He nodded at the river, “It’s one thing to be faced with the unknown. Another thing to be surrounded by it.” Get full access to Patrick E. McLean at patrickemclean.substack.com/subscribe

I wasn't sure I wanted to celebrate Christmas after this dumpster fire of a year. But we're starting to have some good news, so I've become cautiously optimistic.  But did I feel optimistic enough to do a holiday episode? Would anyone want to hear one? I put the question to you in Instagram (@alonglookslowart) and the answer was a resounding yes! You guys are the best! So I pulled together three past episodes on works by Jan van Eyck, Giorgione and Gilbert Stuart that reflect the season and the idea of hope and miracles. Follow these links to their page on the Gallery's site. On each Gallery page, click on the image and you'll be able to zoom in and pan around. So please join me for this extended Christmas episode of “A Long Look!” BTW, the show will go back into hibernation after this. I've got some exciting changes brewing, which I'll let you know about here and on Instagram!
