Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: Monarchs' Fiscal Struggles & Parliamentary Power 17th-century monarchs like James I and Charles I faced immense financial challenges due to long-term inflation and the rising cost of war, particularly with the "military revolution." English common law required Parliament's consent for taxation, forcing kings to seek funds from a "fractious" Parliament. Controversial extra-parliamentary taxes, like forced loans or ship money, sparked debates over royal power and people's liberties, notably championed by Edward Coke. 1658 OLIVER CROMWELL

Dogs have been part of Country Life's editorial makeup since its inception. Agnes has a deep love for all dog breeds. Historically, dogs served various purposes in society. The shift from working dogs to companion dogs reflects societal changes. Photography has played a crucial role in shaping public perception of dogs. Agnes's personal experiences with dogs influenced her writing. The importance of preserving vulnerable native breeds is emphasized. Humans and dogs share a unique bond that transcends time. The book offers a snapshot of the breeds dear to Country Life. Sound Bites "Princess Diana actually called them a moving carpet of corgis because she was always had them at her ankles." - Agnes describing Queen Elizabeth II's famous corgi pack. "on his wedding night when Napoleon went back to the covers to hop into bed with Josephine, fortune popped out and savaged Napoleon." - The story of Josephine Bonaparte's pug attacking Napoleon on their wedding night. "Lord Byron had his beloved Newfoundland, Bowson... But a little known fact is that he also kept two bulldogs during his time at Cambridge University. And they were called Savage and Smut." - Revealing Byron's lesser-known bulldogs with memorable names. "all I observed was the silliness of the king playing with his dogs all the while and not minding the business." - Samuel Pepys' 1666 critique of King Charles II's obsession with his spaniels during government meetings. "And when one of the young princes appears on screen, she says, you know, could be William could be George. And then as soon as a corgi appears, she says instantly that Susan." - Queen Elizabeth II recognizing her dog before her own grandchildren in family videos. "the tale of Laszlo, the Dan-Diedenmont Terrier... this particular Terrier terrorized Boris Johnson when he was editing The Spectator." - A vulnerable native breed dog giving the future PM trouble. "there are great kennels at an estate here called Goodwood, which by the way had heating before the main house did." - The priority given to prize foxhounds over human comfort in aristocratic estates. "Dachshunds had a bit of a, you know, rough deal in this country historically... They were persecuted for being German." - The unfortunate wartime treatment of German dog breeds in Britain. "I think beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I agree. I mean, I don't think any dog could be described as grotesque." - Agnes diplomatically defending all dog breeds when asked about "grotesque looking dogs." "They said that Staffies should have a tail like a old fashioned pump handle and Titan really did." - A charming breed standard description that perfectly matched Agnes's own dog.

As the lines between democracy and monarchy blur, what kind of power are we living under—and what kind of authority do we trust?In this episode of Rebuilders, Mark, Liddy, and Daniel explore the seismic shifts happening in how power is exercised and understood in our time. From Max Weber's classic categories of authority to the rise of charismatic leaders like Donald Trump, they trace how the erosion of rational-legal power and the resurgence of personality-driven, almost “royal” rule are reshaping politics, culture, and even the church.Is Trump's style of leadership a symptom—or the beginning—of a deeper cultural shift? Are we witnessing a post-secular return to sacred forms of power? And what does it mean for Christians to live under the authority of a very different kind of king?

Old Dominion vs. Indiana College Football Pick Prediction 8/30/2025 by Tony T. Recent Box Score Key Stats Old Dominion at Indiana 2:30PM ET—Old Dominion went 5-7 in 2024 for head coach Ricky Rahne in his fifth season. The Monarchs return 11 starters with only four on offense.

In this episode, we will be taking a closer look at the monarch butterfly, but we won't be talking about milkweed or nectar plants, or the migration and overwintering sites – at least, not directly. No, our focus is on pesticides and monarchs. Are pesticides a particular concern for monarch butterflies? What are the consequences of pesticide contamination to their habitat? What can we do to provide pesticide-free habitat?To answer these questions we welcome back Emily May, Agricultural Conservation Lead with the Xerces Pesticide Reduction Program. Emily works with farmers, researchers, conservation professionals, and agencies across the U.S. to reduce pesticide risks to pollinators and other beneficial insects, support the adoption of ecologically sound pest-management practices, and expand high-quality habitat in working lands. She also supports Xerces' staff by providing technical expertise that helps guide resources, outreach, and policy efforts.---Photo: Stephanie McKnight/Xerces SocietyThank you for listening!

America's brighter mirror, baseball reflects, anticipates, and even mocks the stories we tell ourselves about our world today. Baseball Prospectus's Steven Goldman shares his obsessions: history from inside and outside of the game, politics, stats, and Casey Stengel quotations. Along the way, we'll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can't get anybody out?

Episode 298 of “The Sports Experience Podcast” is here & we're continuing our block of episodes on the greatest players in the history of the Negro Leagues.Buck O'Neil was fantastic first baseman, a terrific scout and manager and an overall amazing ambassador to the game in general.Born in segregated Florida, O'Neil realized that the game of baseball was a way out of hard labor in the celery fields of his youth during the 1930s.Though forced to barnstorm and play in obscurity during his early years in professional baseball, O'Neil became a staple at first base for some of the greatest Negro Leagues teams of all time as a member of the Kansas City Monarchs.O'Neil made two All-Star teams and was an integral part of the Monarchs' 1942 Negro World Series championship squad. A great hitter and defender, O'Neil was sadly robbed of a chunk of his prime years when he served in the Navy in World War II.After his service, O'Neil returned to the Negro Leagues and managed the Monarchs from 1948-1955 when the league was struggling financially in the post-integration era.Armed with a keen eye for talent, O'Neil then became a scout for the Chicago Cubs and signed legends such as Lou Brock. He is even credited as being the first African-American manager in MLB history when he became manager of the Cubs in 1962 despite never getting to manage on the field.He continued to enjoy decades of success as a scout for the Cubs and the Kansas City Royals, and even helped establish the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City.A true pioneer and credit to the game of baseball, O'Neil was a legend. Finally, in 2022 he was enshrined in the National Baseball Hall of Fame for his contributions to the National Pastime.Connect with us on Instagram!Chris Quinn: @cquinncomedyDominic DiTolla: @ditolladominicProducer: @ty_englestudioInstagram: @thesportsexperiencepodcastIf you enjoy this podcast, please help support us @:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-sports-experience-pod/support#sportspodcast#comedypodcast #buckoneil#baseballplayer#baseball

Bird flu, which has long been an emerging threat, took a significant turn in 2024 with the discovery that the virus had jumped from a wild bird to a cow. In just over a year, the pathogen has spread through dairy herds and poultry flocks across the United States. It has also infected people, resulting in 70 confirmed cases, including one fatality. Correspondent Bill Whitaker spoke with veterinarians and virologists who warn that, if unchecked, this outbreak could lead to a new pandemic. They also raise concerns about the Biden administration's slow response in 2024 and now the Trump administration's decision to lay off over 100 key scientists. Demis Hassabis, a pioneer in artificial intelligence, is shaping the future of humanity. As the CEO of Google DeepMind, he was first interviewed by correspondent Scott Pelley in 2023, during a time when chatbots marked the beginning of a new technological era. Since that interview, Hassabis has made headlines for his innovative work, including using an AI model to predict the structure of proteins, which earned him a Nobel Prize. Pelley returns to DeepMind's headquarters in London to discuss what's next for Hassabis, particularly his leadership in the effort to develop artificial general intelligence (AGI) – a type of AI that has the potential to match the versatility and creativity of the human brain.  One of the most awe-inspiring and mysterious migrations in the natural world is currently taking place, stretching from Mexico to the United States and Canada. This incredible spectacle involves millions of monarch butterflies embarking on a monumental aerial journey. Correspondent Anderson Cooper reports from the mountains of Mexico, where the monarchs spent the winter months sheltering in trees before emerging from their slumber to take flight.

In the last episode we met 7 living former monarchs who chose to retire, hand their thrones to their children and enjoy their golden years. But not all living former monarchs chose to get off the throne, some were pushed off. In the 20th century, 28 national-level monarchies across the world were abolished. Their former sovereigns were downgraded, exiled or even executed. As the majority of these revolutions and coups happened in the first half of the century, few ex monarchs are still alive today. Their children and grandchildren carry on defunct royal dynastic lines and, if they're lucky, enjoy what's left of their ancestors' glory, palaces, and fortunes. Today there are only 4 living former monarchs who lost their thrones when their monarchies were abolished. All of their reigns ended and one began in bloodshed. And one managed to return to his former Kingdom and be democratically elected Prime minister. Let's meet them! Jamshid bin Abdullah, Former Sultan of Zanzibar Simeon II, Former Tsar of Bulgaria Gyanendra, Former King of Nepal Fuad II, Former King of Egypt and the Sudan Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

Queen Elizabeth II considered abdication to be a dirty word. She remained on the throne until her death at 96, and left her son Charles to waiting 73 years to take the job he was born to. But abdication is not so despised in other countries. In recent decades more monarchs have elected to retire and pass the throne on to the next generation. Thus allowing them to spend their golden years relaxing and enjoying their ridiculously well-funded retirement plans. Plus we'll find out what an ex monarch does in retirement; from studying fish to living in a log cabin to getting into even more scandal than they did on the throne. Let's meet the world's 6 living former monarchs... Akihito, Former Emperor of Japan Albert II, Former King of Belgium Juan Carlos I, Former King of Spain Beatrix, Former Queen of the Netherlands Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Former Emir of Qatar Jigme Singye Wangchuck, Former Dragon King of Bhutan Margrethe II , Former Queen of Denmark Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!
