Send us a textA story of early Earth science in action! Mary Anning was a pioneering paleontologist and fossil hunter who reshaped our understanding of prehistoric life. Growing up by the seaside cliffs of Lyme Regis, England, she uncovered ancient creatures hidden in the rocks—like giant sea reptiles and even fossilized dinosaur poop! Her discoveries helped scientists understand that creatures could go extinct and that the Earth was much older than people once believed. Her work was often dismissed and she rarely received the credit she deserved. Today, she is known around the world as the unsung hero for the scientific study of life through fossils. Go to the episode webpage: https://jonincharacter.com/mary-anning/             Get a free activity guide on Mary Anning: https://dorktalesstorytime.aweb.page/ep109freePDF If you enjoyed this story about Mary Anning, you may also enjoy learning about Evelyn Cheesman, another Earth Science's hidden hero of history who observed, collected and catalogued previously undiscovered insects, reptiles, amphibians, and plants—over 70,000 of them: https://jonincharacter.com/evelyn-cheesman/ CREDITS: Hidden Heroes of History is a Jonincharacter production.

Cities and Memory - remixing the sounds of the world

The Jurassic Coast is so called for its richness in terms of fossil finds and dinosaur discoveries, with this beach in Lyme Regis particularly well known for the huge number of ammonite fossils that can be found. In this recording as well as the waves and beach soundscape, you can hear the sound of dozens of people with chisels and homemade gear chippning away at rocks in the hope of discovering fossils to take home.  Recorded by Cities and Memory.  ——————— This sound is part of the Sonic Heritage project, exploring the sounds of the world's most famous sights.  Find out more and explore the whole project: https://www.citiesandmemory.com/heritage

Cities and Memory - remixing the sounds of the world

"The sound of modern humyns chipping away at solid rock searching for ancient organisms that have been turned to stone through pressure and time... the percussion of tool use was the perfect place to start, maybe the use of tools is where the idea of instrumental music came from in the first place... thoughts of musical evolution as humyns evolved with as much slowness as the forces that turned those organisms into solid rock... gradually multiplying percussion lines are kinda like the evolving complexity of life. 66 million years is an inconceivable length of time. at one point in the recording, you can hear a humyn voice, so i isolated that voice and stretched it out and used it as a melody line... as humyn voices mix with percussion, thoughts of the primal nature of percussion and voice, how ancient is this kind of humyn sound? sonic heritage indeed.  "The piece ended up having three movements: the first is the percussive rhythmic stomp of humyn activity... i pictured more and more humyns adding their particular rhythm to the party. the second is the collapse and fragmentation of the rhythms, kinda mirroring the fracturing of the stone but also could be a metaphor for the energy of life ending, crossing the threshold of life and death, turmoil, the forces that end one branch of the evolutionary tree, the extinctions that are a necessary part of evolution, the end of living that meant we can find these organisms turned to stone millions of years later. the third and final part is the stretching and distorting of time and sediment as the sound becomes crushed beneath its own increasing weight, the forces that fossilise... petrifying flattening denseness... and the piece is over."

Since the early 19th century, discoveries of fossilized bones have fascinated scientists. From Mary and Joseph Anning's 1810 discovery of the bones of a marine reptile in Lyme Regis, England, to the discovery of the mysterious and ferocious dinosaurs in 1820, these forgotten giants, buried beneath layers of rock and earth, have opened our eyes to creatures beyond our wildest imaginings. But long before the discovery of these bones, the Bible offered us glimpses of strange creatures that had frolicked in the sea and sailed through the air. The mighty leviathan, who is described as a great marine beast writhing through the ocean, and the strange and fearsome winged serpents who floated through the arid desert air populate the pages of the Scriptures, telling us that perhaps these creatures were brought to life by the hand of a loving creator. In this program we'll take a look at some of these amazing creatures: who they were, where they lived and what their origins were. Join us as we take a fascinating look at these giant marine reptiles, flying creatures and dinosaurs in this week's episode of The Incredible Journey.

In this latest episode of The Food Talk Show, host Ollie Lloyd welcomes Ed Morrison, the CEO of Roots Allotment. This membership-based business aims to empower communities across the UK to grow their food and become part of a vibrant local community. From the germ of an idea during lockdown, the company is pursuing a bold vision for sustainable self-reliance. Ed Morrison's journey with Roots Allotment began serendipitously during a pre-lockdown gardening talk in Lyme Regis, where he encountered no-dig gardening pioneer Charles Dowding. This meeting ignited Morrison's interest in sustainable food cultivation, leading him to propose a market garden on unloved land in his grandmother's garden. Roots Allotment is not just about growing vegetables; it's about fostering community and inclusivity. With nine sites across England, in places like Bristol, Leeds, Nottingham, Sheffield, Bath, Stourbridge, Chelmsford and Croydon, each allotment buzzes with human and insect life. Morrison's ambition is to develop a network of over 100 sites with over 100,000 people growing their own food within a decade. With every location fostering a sense of community,, this vision has the potential to impact more than just the way some people eat. Converting land into allotments isn't without its challenges, from sorting members' seeds into tiny packets to accessing quality compost. However, Morrison highlights that one of the most pressing issues is finding suitable land amid the competition from housing developers and other edge-of-town developers.  If all this sparks a desire to have a Roots Allotment near you, visit their website and complete an application form - apparently, all it takes is 300 signatures from friends to influence where their next site is!    Edited by Stella Gent

Historische Heldinnen. Inspirierende Frauen der Geschichte

Mary Anning war eine Pionierin der Paläontologie, deren Entdeckungen die wissenschaftliche Welt revolutionierten. Geboren 1799 in Lyme Regis, Dorset, wuchs Mary in bescheidenen Verhältnissen auf und begann schon als Kind mit ihrem Vater, Fossilien zu sammeln. Ihr erster großer Fund war mit zwölf Jahren das vollständige Skelett eines Ichthyosaurus. Mary Anning setzte ihre Forschungen fort und machte zahlreiche bedeutende Entdeckungen, darunter das erste vollständige Skelett eines Plesiosauriers und den ersten britischen Flugsaurier, ein Dimorphodon. Trotz ihrer fehlenden formalen Ausbildung erwarb sie durch Lesen und Korrespondenz mit führenden Gelehrten umfassendes Wissen. Ihr Leben war von persönlichen Tragödien und gesellschaftlichen Herausforderungen geprägt, doch ihr Vermächtnis lebt weiter. Ihre bahnbrechenden Entdeckungen und ihr Beitrag zur Wissenschaft inspirieren weiterhin Generationen von Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern."Historische Heldinnen" lässt mithilfe von Künstlicher Intelligenz wichtige Frauen der Weltgeschichte auf ihr eigenes Leben zurückblicken. Selbstbewusst erzählen sie uns von ihrem Mut und ihrer Durchsetzungskraft.Viertausendhertz 2024 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

featured Wiki of the Day

fWotD Episode 2573: Mary Anning Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of the featured Wikipedia article every day.The featured article for Tuesday, 21 May 2024 is Mary Anning.Mary Anning (21 May 1799 – 9 March 1847) was an English fossil collector, dealer, and palaeontologist who became known around the world for the discoveries she made in Jurassic marine fossil beds in the cliffs along the English Channel at Lyme Regis in the county of Dorset in Southwest England. Anning's findings contributed to changes in scientific thinking about prehistoric life and the history of the Earth.Anning searched for fossils in the area's Blue Lias and Charmouth Mudstone cliffs, particularly during the winter months when landslides exposed new fossils that had to be collected quickly before they were lost to the sea. Her discoveries included the first correctly identified ichthyosaur skeleton when she was twelve years old; the first two nearly complete plesiosaur skeletons; the first pterosaur skeleton located outside Germany; and fish fossils. Her observations played a key role in the discovery that coprolites, known as bezoar stones at the time, were fossilised faeces, and she also discovered that belemnite fossils contained fossilised ink sacs like those of modern cephalopods.Anning struggled financially for much of her life. As a woman, she was not eligible to join the Geological Society of London, and did not always receive full credit for her scientific contributions. However, her friend, geologist Henry De la Beche, who painted Duria Antiquior, the first widely circulated pictorial representation of a scene from prehistoric life derived from fossil reconstructions, based it largely on fossils Anning had found and sold prints of it for her benefit.Anning became well known in geological circles in Britain, Europe, and America, and was consulted on issues of anatomy as well as fossil collecting. The only scientific writing of hers published in her lifetime appeared in the Magazine of Natural History in 1839, an extract from a letter that Anning had written to the magazine's editor questioning one of its claims. After her death in 1847, Anning's unusual life story attracted increasing interest.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:32 UTC on Tuesday, 21 May 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Mary Anning on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Kimberly Neural.

His team did some extensive field work—particularly at the Silhouette Range locality—a few summers ago and we are keen to hear the results of their efforts. The fossils we find in the Eager Formation are slightly older than those found at the Burgess Shale Lagerstätte. Burgess is Middle Cambrian and the species match the Eager fauna one for one but the Eager fauna are much less varied.  The specimens we find are wonderfully preserved and beautifully displayed in the Cranbrook History Centre. Sound the horns, beat the drums and stomp your feet—it's official! The Puntledge Elasmosaur is now British Columbia's Provincial Fossil. Mike Trask found the first elasmosaur in 1988 while exploring the Puntledge River with his daughter.  He found the first terrestrial dinosaur remains from Vancouver Island and coined the term "sabre-toothed salmon" of legendary fame.It was Mike's twin brother Pat Trask, who led the excavation of the juvenile elasmosaur from the Trent River back in August 2020.

Wonka is a 2023 musical fantasy film directed by Paul King, who co-wrote the screenplay with Simon Farnaby based on a story by King. It tells the origin story of Willy Wonka, a character in the 1964 novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl, featuring his early days as a chocolatier. The film stars Timothée Chalamet in the title role and an ensemble cast including Calah Lane, Keegan-Michael Key, Paterson Joseph, Matt Lucas, Mathew Baynton, Sally Hawkins, Rowan Atkinson, Jim Carter, Natasha Rothwell, Olivia Colman, and Hugh Grant. It is the third live-action film based on Dahl's novel, following Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971) and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005). Development began after Warner Bros. Pictures reacquired the rights to the character in October 2016 and announced that the film would serve as an origin story. While the film tells a standalone story with no connection to prior adaptations, King developed Wonka to exist as a "companion piece" to the 1971 film by reprising some of the music, thematic elements, and visual design of the Oompa Loompas. In May 2021, Chalamet was confirmed to be portraying Wonka and the supporting cast were announced in September of that year. Filming began in the United Kingdom in September 2021, taking place in Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden, in Watford, as well as Oxford, Lyme Regis, Bath, St Albans and at the Rivoli Ballroom in Crofton Park, London. The original songs for the film were contributed by Neil Hannon, while its original score was provided by Joby Talbot. Wonka had its world premiere in London at the Royal Festival Hall, Southbank Centre, on November 28, 2023. It was released in the United Kingdom on December 8 and in the United States on December 15 by Warner Bros. Pictures. The film has grossed $469 million worldwide and received generally positive reviews from critics. For his performance, Chalamet was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy. The film also received two Critics' Choice Award nominations for Best Young Actor/Actress for Lane & Costume Design. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/popcorn-junkies/message

Jasmine Valentine and Paul Klein from Filmhounds Magazine return to Flixwatcher remotely to review Jasmine's choice Ammonite. Ammonite is a 2020 romantic period drama set in 1840s Lyme Regis directed by Francis (God's Own Country) Lee. Loosely inspired by the life of British palaeontologist Mary Anning (Kate Winslet) it focuses on a speculative relationship with her and Charlotte Murchison (Saoirse Ronan), a geologist who is left by her husband to convalescence under Mary's care. The setting of Lyme Regis isn't especially exotic, cold, grey and clammy could be used to describe the chemistry as well the beaches. Jasmine was definitely more enamoured with this chilly romance than Paul and Flixwatcher. Despite this Ammonite still scores generously for recommendability, lower scores for repeat viewing and engagement gives an overall rating of 3.57.   [supsystic-tables id=297] Episode #285 Crew Links Thanks to Episode #285 Crew of Paul Klein and (@paulkleinyoo) Jasmine Valentine (@thejasvalentine) from Filmhounds Magazine  Find their Websites online at https://twitter.com/nomajestyuk and at https://twitter.com/filmhoundsmag and at https://twitter.com/dorianawards and at https://www.tiktok.com/@paulkleinyo and at https://linktr.ee/paulkleinyo and at https://twitter.com/LWLies and at https://twitter.com/RadioTimes and at https://twitter.com/i_D and at https://twitter.com/YahooEnt and at https://twitter.com/polygon and at https://twitter.com/MetroUK and at https://twitter.com/dorianawards and at https://thejasminevalentine.contently.com/ Please make sure you give them some love   More about Ammonite For more info on Ammonite, you can visit Ammonite IMDb page here or Ammonite Rotten Tomatoes page here.

Duchess
Alice Kennard of Forde Abbey

Duchess

Play Episode Listen Later May 29, 2022 38:30


Episode Description: In this episode, the Duchess meets Alice Kennard of Forde Abbey. Alice describes the fascinating monastic history of Forde Abbey, and why it was so important in its time. We also hear from Alice about the beauty of her award winning gardens, and we learn all about the famous Mortlake tapestry that used to hang in the Abbey. Top Quotes: “I feel there is a pressure to produce that clinical visitor experience the National Trust do, which I'm determined not to do. Here, they do see the family working bits, they do see our dogs coming out of the house, they do see people living in the grounds. I think its more welcoming!” - Alice Kennard “I always say it's a partnership with people running private heritage. It's a big welcoming handshake saying come in. Share our home. We're all doing our little bit to hand this over to another generation.” - Emma Rutland About the Guest and Stately Home: Alice Kennard was born to Mark & Lisa Roper. Her parents were custodians of Forde Abbey for decades, and Alice is the fourth generation of Ropers to live at Forde. Alice studied Land Management at Cirencester, where she met her husband Julian in 1997. The couple married and moved into the Home Farm on the Forde Abbey estate. Forde Abbey is a Grade I listed building within 1,600 acres of land. The house is set on the banks of the River Axe, close to where the borders of Devon, Somerset and Dorset intersect. Founded in the twelfth century, Forde Abbey was a monastery for four hundred years, during which time it became one of the richest and most learned institutions in England. After the dissolution of the larger monasteries in 1539, the Abbey was handed over over to the Crown. In 1649, Forde was purchased by Edmund Prideaux, Member of Parliament for Lyme Regis. He was largely responsible for transforming Forde Abbey from a Monastic residence to a private home. The Mortlake Tapestries used to hang on the walls in The Saloon, now in the V&A, and replaced by copies at Forde. Forde Abbey has also been featured in 2015's Far From the Maddening Crowd, 1995's Restoration and 2002's BBC adaptation of Daniel Deronda. About the Host: Emma, Duchess of Rutland, grew up far away from the world of the aristocracy. Born Emma Watkins, the Duchess grew up the daughter of a Quaker farmer, in the Welsh countryside. She trained as an opera singer in the Guildhall School of Music, and worked as a successful interior designer before meeting her future husband David Manners, the 11th Duke of Rutland, at a dinner party. Their marriage in 1992 thrust Emma into a new world, which included the responsibility of preserving one of the nation's greatest stately homes: Belvoir Castle. While simultaneously running the day to day operations of the castle, and raising five children, the Duchess became fascinated with the history and importance of the other stately homes of the UK. Join Emma as she embarks on a wonderful journey through time, to learn more about the incredible homes that have defined Great Britain and, most importantly, meet the other extraordinary women who work tirelessly in the background, to preserve their homes history and magic for future generations.

To mark the 50th episode of The Mojo Podcast, I invite two great friends and highly successful founders onto the show for a really insightful and powerful chat about the founder mojo. Anna Barez-Brown and Caroline 'Cal' Whaley launched Shine 4 Women 9 years ago after both having successful corporate careers but looking for their next step - in their language, this 'bigger game' of founding theor own business. They found each other, they created their product and brought it to market. Our chat is a wonderful reflection on what they've done and plan to do next.  Shine 4 Women is dedicated to making business more human by enabling more women to reach the top and teams to have open, honest conversations that bring empathy, trust and inclusion. They have worked with 10,000 women (and hundreds of men) across 75 nationalities, empowering them to lead the change they want to see.  As I mention, I'm very proud to be one of the Senior Leaders at Shine - but in this conversation I discover so much more about both Anna and Cal and the business they have created. It's a great conversation.  Here's more about them individually. Anna is a renowned executive coach and has spent the last two decades helping women and men reach the top of their careers. Before setting up her coaching company in 2001 she had a corporate career working for Axel-Springer and Bertelsmann in Hamburg and London overseeing their European Marketing and Sales activities.  Anna is a CTI leadership coach, a Neuro Lingustic Master Practitioner and a qualified Organisational Relationship Systems Coach. Anna has two children and lives with her husband Chris and their two dogs in Lyme Regis in the UK. She is lucky enough to have an office with a sea view. Cal built her career in the adventure travel industry before joining Nike in 1996 where she spent 14 years in senior global brand marketing and GM roles in UK, Europe, North America and Latin America. Following this, she spent three years with the Nike Foundation, leading public-private sector partnerships and creating new brands to inspire, empower and shift social norms for millions of teenage girls living in Africa as the fastest route to eradicating global poverty. Cal is also a qualified Organisational Relationships Systems Coach and has an MBA (Distinction) from Lancaster University. When not traveling extensively for work and pleasure, Cal can be found running through Dorset with her spaniel or sailing with her husband, Tim. Please share you own take-outs from the series on my Linked In page I'd love to hear what you think and also your suggestions for future founder guests.

It's Friday, December the 10th, this is episode 30, and welcome back to the podcast. Hello, hello, hello and good morning, good afternoon or good evening to whenever and wherever you are listening to this podcast today, it is great to have you welcome. If you're new here. Welcome. And if you are returning visitor and welcome back, it's great to have all of you and welcome to the show is another Friday. Another week has gone by and as you may know, I am still catching up on talking about all the things I've done over the past few months. Today, I'm going to talk about a couple of things that we have done in September with the help of my photo library, because that is how I kind of track and remind myself where I've been and what we did. So I'm going to be flicking between screens. If you hear the odd click, that will be why. What if you are new here, then what is this podcast all about? Well, it is about mainly UK travel and largely in our camper van is done in conjunction with my website, Richard dot com, and also with the few videos that I put out over on YouTube, which is YouTube.com forward slash Richard Chubb. And this week I've made a bit of a decision to really focus on. They're going to stick with UK travel, but I'm really going to concentrate on the campervan side of things and you know, it's tough to get out all the time with a family and school and things like that. So I'm going to be doing a little mini trips, possibly on my own day trips out in the van, sharing tips and tricks that I do when I'm out and about and talking about the gear that I use and any tips or advice I can think of. So if you are a campervan lover, you have definitely come to the right place. If you are just generally a travel lover again, you're in the right place, particularly if that is UK. And if you have some weird fascination with listening to a strange person talk, then you are also in the right place. So we are going to quickly jump to watch a bit of a catch up to take take you around a few places because one, we did a trip in September that it was only one trip, but we got to see lots and lots. So let us transport you on an adventure to East Devon. We had three nights in a campsite called Oak Down Tauren Park or I think is Oak Down Touring and Holiday Park something like that? Really good campsites. It's got a great some great facilities there. Nice big, spacious pitches, award winning according to all the signs they've got everywhere around the park. And so it was a great campsite, great for the kids. There was a play park and a, you know, golf like a little pitch and thing and, you know, nearby lots of places to see which I'll get into. And we it took us about two and a half hours to get there from the new forest. We headed out west to East Devon and we stopped at Lyme Regis first and foremost, which is a great little beach side of COVI type. And there's not really a cove, actually. It's a sort of pebble shingle, beach fishing, lots of fishing boats hanging around and the usual beachside attractions, kayaks and trampoline and things like that. We had lunch in the van and took a walk along the beach as a as a little break up of the journey, and then we got tied down and parked up on a pitch. That was it was very nice. It was very spacious. We were obviously a few tents and camper vans that obviously had come together. He had never quite sure what to expect, but everything was fine. They were respectful. We wasn't noisy.

As our world becomes increasingly interconnected, how are such accents changing? Multicultural British English or MBE has emerged from the multi-cultural, multi-ethnic communities in cities like London and Manchester. Adopted by those who live in urban and rural areas - like Dorset - speakers use MBE and mix it with their local variety to create a new linguistic identity.
