After Mount Vesuvius erupted - and original hosts Rome pulled out - the British Olympic council sent a letter, dated 19th November, 1906, agreeing to host the fourth modern Olympic games. With just two years to go, the event was put together hastily, and on a paltry budget; a stadium erected at the White City home of the Franco-British exhibition, and the chosen events ones that British athletes excelled at, including polo, lacrosse, tug of war, deer-shooting, and duelling. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly reveal what a ‘flip-flap' was; consider the calculation done to establish the length of the modern-day marathon; and establish how a small swig of champagne contributed to one of the Games' greatest ever controversies...

Mit "White City (A Novel)" veröffentlichte Pete Townshend 1985 ein sehr persönliches Album. Es erzählt die Geschichte von seiner Jugend und dem Aufwachsen in Londons Sozialsiedlungen. "White City (A Novel)" erschien am 11. November 1985 als das fünfte Solo-Album des Sängers und The Who-Gitarristen Pete Townshend. Mit dem Album reflektiert Townshend seine eigene Kindheit und beschreibt die Welt, aus der er stammt. Der Sänger wuchs in der Nachkriegszeit in West London, in der Nähe des realen White City-Viertels auf. Die Gegend war in der Zeit eine Sozialbausiedlung, geprägt von Hoffnungslosigkeit, Gewalt und sozialer Ungerechtigkeit. Das Foto des Albumcovers wurde tatsächlich auch in diesem Viertel aufgenommen. Pete Townshends Eltern trennten sich, als er etwa fünf Jahre alt war. Da beide Musiker waren und oft unterwegs, musste er bei seiner Großmutter leben. Diese Zeit war für ihn äußerst traumatisch, da er dort emotionale Misshandlung erfuhr. Ende der 1970er- und Anfang der 1980er-Jahre verlor Townshend mehrere enge Weggefährten, was ihn stark prägte und in eine Depression stürzte. Zusammen mit seinen Kindheitserfahrungen verarbeitete er dies zunächst in der Therapie und später auch künstlerisch in "White City (A Novel)". "White City (A Novel)" greift tiefgehende existenzielle und soziale Themen auf und gibt Einblicke in die traumatische Kindheit von Pete Townshend. Für Meilensteine Redakteur Stephan Fahrig ist es ein Album, dass wegen seiner ernsten Inhalte besonders aus dem eher künstlichen Image der 1980er heraussticht. Meilensteine Redakteurin Katharina Heinius sieht das Werk sogar als den Abschluss einer Trilogie, die mit "Tommy" beginnt, mit "Quadrophenia" fortgeführt wird und schließlich in "White City (A Novel)" endet. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "White City (A Novel)" wird im Podcast gesprochen (21:19) – "Give Blood"(36:12) – "Come To Mama"(39:14) – "Brilliant Blues"(45:15) – "Face The Face"(54:47) – "White City Fighting"__________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge "White City (A Novel)" findet ihr hier: https://1.ard.de/pete-townshend-white-city-a-novel __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Journal of Astrobiology, 16, 2025JournalOfAstrobiology.com 52 Square-Shaped Structure MarsMars: Geological Formation or Archaeology? Square-shaped Structure Withinan Arabia Terra Crater?George J. Haas1 , William R. Saunders2 , and Robert M. Schoch31The Cydonia Institute, PO Box 102, Purcellville, VA, USA; thecydoniainstitute@hotmail.com2412 – 3311 Wilson St. Penticton, B.C., Canada; bsaunders169@gmail.com3Boston University, College of General Studies, Boston, MA, USA; schoch@bu.eduABSTRACT An examination of a square-shaped structure within a crater in the Arabia Terra region of Mars isundertaken. Supportive images are provided by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory's Mars GlobalSurveyor and the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecrafts. The images reveal the remains of a set of possible linear walls with 90-degree angles (as best as can be determined) at their corners that exhibit a high level of symmetry. The hypothesis of artificial design is presented based on an examination of possible artificial and natural mechanisms that could contribute to the structure of the features observed.Terrestrial comparisons of geological structures and geometrical designs are investigated. Further study and additional imaging of the structural components of this enigmatic feature are encouraged.Keywords: Mars; Arabia Terra; square; walls; foundation; mounds; Mars Global Surveyor; MarsReconnaissance Orbiter; Masada; White City; life on Mars; Anomalous Formations on Mars1. IntroductionA Mars Global Surveyor image depicting a square-shaped structure (also referred to in the popularpress as a “square-shaped formation”) was brought to the attention of the first two authors in 2001 by independent researcher Richard C. Hoagland via his Enterprise Mission website (https://www.enterprisemission.org/). This square structure has generated a high level of interest and has been featured in numerous online news programs; however no serious scientific assessment has been offered until now.2. The Square-shaped Structure (Mars Global Surveyor)In November 2001 NASA released an image acquired by the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS)camera E10/00462. The image was taken in the winter, during the early morning hours with a resolutionof 6.3 meters per pixel (Mars Viewer, MGS, 2001). The original orientation of the image was inverted,with south toward the top; it shows exposed material within a crater that includes a feature that appears tobe square-shaped structure (Figure 1). The square-shape is offset with opposite corners aligned in a northsouth direction. The northern corner of the formation consists of an L-shaped wall-like structure that ispartially buried by debris. The western and southern corners are visible, while the eastern corner appearsto be covered by fine-grained deposits in this image; the western corner also appears to be covered tosome extent with fine-grained deposits (note that “fine-grained” is a relative term in this context, giventhe resolution of 6.3 meters per pixel). A detail of the area is provided in figure 2, showing the outline ofthe square-shaped walls and linear impression.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

He was no longer Herman Mudgett—he was H.H. Holmes, and Chicago was his playground.

Sorghum State Podcast co-hosts Maddy Meier and Adam York guide listeners through a milestone moment for the next decade of sorghum improvement in Kansas: the acceleration of the Collaborative Sorghum Investment Program (CSIP 2.0). Together, they trace the history of the farmer-led initiative from 2016 and explore how it leverages resources for sorghum improvement while opening up the effort over the past 16 months to bolster the program into the future—with enhanced backing from leaders in Topeka.Listeners will hear from four producer leaders shaping the future of the crop: Brant Peterson, Stanton County; Kevin Kniebel, White City; Shane Ohlde, Palmer; and Andy Hineman, Dighton. These producers break down how CSIP 2.0 fits into long-term challenges and innovations with benefits of the investments returned directly to rural Kansas economies and water savings.From behind-the-scenes association strategy at the Kansas Statehouse to boots-on-the-ground farming insights from the fields of Kansas, this episode explores why this milestone matters to producers—and how Kansas Sorghum today helps lead the charge for the next generation of sorghum producers tomorrow.--Interested in getting involved?

Episode 373: In the shadowy annals of North American crime, few names evoke as much dread as H.H. Holmes, a master manipulator, a conman, and a predator who thrived in the chaos of a rapidly changing world and the man often called America's first serial killer. Born Herman Webster Mudgett, Holmes's reign of terror began in Chicago, where he constructed his infamous “Murder Castle”—a labyrinth of hidden rooms, trapdoors, and secret passageways designed to lure and dispatch his victims during the bustling days of the 1893 World's Fair. But Holmes's evil did not respect borders; his murderous path would ultimately stretch into Canada. During his murderous career, in 1894, Holmes claimed the lives of his accomplice, Benjamin Pitezel, 38, and three of his youngest victims, Benjamin's children: Howard Pitezel, 8, in Indianapolis, and, later in Toronto, Pitezel's daughters, Alice Pitezel, 15, and Nellie Pitezel, 11. Their tragic deaths in a quiet Toronto neighbourhood forever linked Holmes's legacy to both sides of the border. Sources: The Holmes-Pitezel case by Frank P Geyer | Internet ArchiveH. H.

Hour 3 of Baskin and Phelps with Tom Withers filling in for Jeff Phelps
Saturday 19th of December 1992 at 2:20pm, behind a wooden hut at White City bus depot off Caxton Road in Shepherd's Bush, the body of 32-year-old successful Peter Wickins was found, he was naked except for a pair of socks and had been stabbed 19 times. The Police assumed because he was a millionaire dressed in a tuxedo and that his Rolex watch was missing, that it must be a robbery gone wrong. But it led to a story which was much darker, as one of life's winners... met one of life's losers.Murder Mile is one of the best UK / British true crime podcasts covering only 20 square miles of West London.

On this week's episode, Cody kicks things off with some exciting news that has sparked nostalgia among tech enthusiasts: the much-anticipated return of a beloved classic phone, coinciding with the 25th anniversary of the iconic Nokia 3210. This device, which was a game-changer in the early 2000s, is fondly remembered for its durability, simplicity, and the unforgettable experience of playing Snake on its monochrome screen. This nostalgic moment seamlessly transitions into a broader discussion about other vintage pre-iPhone cell phones that left a mark on mobile technology, including the T-Mobile Sidekick, known for its unique flip design and full QWERTY keyboard, which made texting a breeze, and the HTC Dream, which was the first phone to run on the Android operating system, paving the way for the smartphone revolution we see today. As the conversation unfolds, Joe chimes in with fond memories of his all-time favorite long-gone phone, the Palm Pre. Joe reflects on the innovative features of the Palm Pre, such as its compact design, multitasking capabilities, and the unique gesture-based interface that set it apart from its contemporaries. He shares personal anecdotes about how the Palm Pre was not just a device for communication but a gateway to a new way of interacting with technology that many users found revolutionary at the time. The episode then shifts gears as the hosts delve into some intriguing movie news, particularly focusing on the upcoming adaptation of Erik Larson's critically acclaimed book, The Devil in the White City. This gripping narrative intertwines the true stories of the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago and the infamous serial killer H.H. Holmes, exploring themes of ambition, innovation, and the darker sides of human nature. The discussion highlights the potential for this adaptation to captivate audiences with its rich historical context and thrilling plot. Following this cinematic exploration, Joe introduces listeners to an exciting new Kickstarter campaign for the beloved sci-fi series, The Expanse. He discusses how this campaign aims to engage fans and support the continuation of the series, which has garnered a dedicated following due to its complex characters, intricate political plots, and realistic portrayal of space travel. The conversation touches on the importance of fan support in the entertainment industry and how crowdfunding has become a vital tool for creators looking to bring their visions to life. To wrap up the episode, the hosts provide a brief update on the iconic Bond franchise, particularly focusing on the recent developments surrounding its future under Amazon's stewardship. They discuss the potential leads and creative talents being considered to take the reins of the franchise, exploring how this new direction could influence the legacy of 007 and what fans might expect from future installments. As the episode concludes, listeners are left with a sense of nostalgia for the past, excitement for the present, and curiosity about the future of both technology and entertainment.Official Website: https://www.comesnaturallypodcast.comOfficial Merchandise: https://shop.spreadshirt.com/comes-naturally-podcast/iTunes: http://tinyurl.com/kqkgackFacebook: http://tinyurl.com/myovgm8Tumblr: http://tinyurl.com/m7a6mg9Twitter: @ComesNaturalPodYouTube: http://tiny.cc/5snxpy

The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair that Changed America by Erik Larson has been floating around in the American pop cultural stew for the last 22 years. Paris had always been interested in reading it, so when it happened to be in a pile of books some friends were giving away, she heeded the call of our dark lord and tossed it on the schedule for 2025. Get on your fancy new bicycles, affix a lightbulb to the front, grab a can of PBR, and somehow also balance a bowl of Shredded Wheat while you're at it for a wild journey from the 1880s through the early 20th century. Paris leads us through Larson's dual accounts of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair and its Director of Work, Daniel Hudson Burnham, alongside the Chicago years of "America's first serial killer", H.H. Holmes (Herman Webster Mudgett). If you think you know the Holmes story because you already read this book or saw some TV dramatization - you don't. Together, we'll discover that misinformation and disinformation have suffused this story for 120 years (and counting)! Thanks to Ken from the Antiques Freaks for helping me down the research rabbit hole & to Adam Selzer for a stellar book, without which much of our disappointment in and suspicions of Larson's tale would not have been justified and relieved. In addition to our usual barnyard language, today's episode includes swindling/fraud, infidelity, sexism, racism, and murder. Links & References: H.H. Holmes: The History of the White City Devil by Adam Selzer

In which Alex tells us why a Hungarian dancer was instrumental in fixing the distance for the marathon. It's a journey that takes us all the way from Pest to Chicago and from Hammersmith, through the Court of Honour, via some more dodgy colonial model villages and out to Windsor. Theatrical and event impresario Imre Kiralfy created the area we now know as White City*, to host events and exhibitions. Including the Franco-British Exhibition of 1908. What else happened in 1908? Well Rome was due to host the Olympics. Plus Fiona met a Zoomer, Indoor swimming, bad signposting and a family success. *What colour do you think the buildings were painted?

My special guest is Kate Winkler Dawson here to discuss her new book American Sherlock about America's first and greatest forensic scientist. Get her book on Amazon. From the acclaimed author of Death in the Air ("Not since Devil in the White City has a book told such a harrowing tale"--Douglas Preston) comes the riveting story of the birth of criminal investigation in the twentieth century. Berkeley, California, 1933. In a lab filled with curiosities--beakers, microscopes, Bunsen burners, and hundreds upon hundreds of books--sat an investigator who would go on to crack at least two thousand cases in his forty-year career. Known as the "American Sherlock Holmes," Edward Oscar Heinrich was one of America's greatest--and first--forensic scientists, with an uncanny knack for finding clues, establishing evidence, and deducing answers with a skill that seemed almost supernatural. Heinrich was one of the nation's first expert witnesses, working in a time when the turmoil of Prohibition led to sensationalized crime reporting and only a small, systematic study of evidence. However with his brilliance, and commanding presence in both the courtroom and at crime scenes, Heinrich spearheaded the invention of a myriad of new forensic tools that police still use today, including blood spatter analysis, ballistics, lie-detector tests, and the use of fingerprints as courtroom evidence. His work, though not without its serious--some would say fatal--flaws, changed the course of American criminal investigation. Based on years of research and thousands of never-before-published primary source materials, American Sherlock captures the life of the man who pioneered the science our legal system now relies upon--as well as the limits of those techniques and the very human experts who wield them.Follow Our Other ShowsFollow UFO WitnessesFollow Crime Watch WeeklyFollow Paranormal FearsFollow Seven: Disturbing Chronicle StoriesJoin our Patreon for ad-free listening and more bonus content.Follow us on Instagram @mysteriousradioFollow us on TikTok mysteriousradioTikTok Follow us on Twitter @mysteriousradio Follow us on Pinterest pinterest.com/mysteriousradio Like us on Facebook Facebook.com/mysteriousradio]
Our card this week is Ralph Salazar and Alice Griego, the Ace of Hearts from Utah.Back in October of 2023, we were contacted by one of Alice Griego's son, Frankie, about covering his mother's case. He was a listener of The Deck and had previously heard us cover cases in Utah. Unknown to him, our reporting team had already flagged his mother's case as one we needed to take a closer look at. Not just because it was unsolved, but because we felt it had never received the full coverage it deserved. And we are confident someone out there knows the truth. Maybe it's time for that someone to come forward…If you have any information about the murders of Ralph Salazar and Alice Griego in December of 2012 in White City, Utah, please contact Salt Lake County Sheriff's Detective Ben Pender at (385) 468-9816 or email him at bpender@saltlakecounty.gov.
