Mark Cook shares, for the first time, a previously recorded interview with Baroness Emma Nicholson of Winterbourne, member of the UK Parliament's House of Lords. Baroness Nicholson is an unparalleled leader of humanitarian organizations and founder of the Amar Foundation. The Baroness, famous for technologies, also saves lives, champions women in Afghanistan, and has reformed healthcare. A champion of aid to war-torn communities and leading personally, the Baroness shares insights from her personal philanthropic journey, suggesting how to tackle international leadership. The Baroness challenges us with surprising actions and a seeming paradox of focus: "Desire betterment of…livelihoods, families, and everything smashed by a real enemy." "It's a mistake to think peace & quiet don't have to be fought for every single moment." "A bit of energy, determination, & knowledge of the difference between right & wrong."

Daisy Miller is an 1878 novella by Henry James. It portrays the confused courtship of the eponymous American girl by Winterbourne, a compatriot of hers with much more sophistication. His pursuit of her is hampered by her own flirtatiousness, which is frowned upon by the other expatriates they meet in Switzerland and Italy. Her lack of understanding of the social mores of the society she so desperately wishes to enter ultimately leads to tragedy. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/librivox1/support

Patrick Doyle es un escocés que estudió en la Real Academia Escocesa de Música y Teatro. Aunque su intención ser actor combinaba su tiempo dando clases de piano y componiendo para alguna obra puntual. Su composición para la comedia musical “Glasvegas” tuvo gran éxito en el Festival de Edimburgo de 1978. En 1987 entró en la Renaissance Theatre Company dirigida por Kenneth Brannagh en la que participó como actor a la vez que como compositor y director musical de la compañía. Cuando en 1989 Brannagh dirigió Enrique V para el cine le encargó la banda sonora a Doyle y tanto la película como la música fue muy valorada por crítica y público, marcando el inicio de una carrera para Doyle que se convirtió en el compositor habitual para las películas de su amigo Kenneth Brannagh. Pronto llamaron la atención sus composiciones y ha sido requerido por directores como Brian de Palma, Ang Lee, Garry Marshall, Richard Benjamin o Alfonso Cuaron entre otros. En 1997 le fue diagnosticada una leucemia que le mantuvo alejado del trabajo durante algunos años. Cuando superó la enfermedad quiso ayudar a recaudar fondos para la Leukemia Research y habló con su amigo Kenneth BrannagH, que organizó un concierto el 28-10-2007 en el Royal Albert Hall con la London Symphony Orchestra y London Symphony Chorus dirigidos por Dirk Brossé con intervenciones de Emma Thompson, Imelda Staunton, Alan Rickman, Derek Jacobi, y Judi Dench entre otros. Es un hombre muy afable querido por sus amigos de la profesión. Ha compuesto también para programas de radio, televisión e incluso para cortometrajes y videojuegos. Ganador de varios premios, el Oscar aún se le resiste, aunque estuvo nominado en un par de ocasiones por “Sentido y sensibilidad” y “Hamlet”.

on todays story were going to go back to 1626, the place pond square in highgate london , which at the time was named pond square because of its two, man made ponds that was dug out by a hermit in the 14th century .but it was in 1626 that sir francis bacon , thethe english philosopher ,, and politician was riding through pond square in a horse drawn carraige ,accompanied by his friend Dr. Winterbourne it was a bitterly cold day in early april , and the snow lay thick upon the ground , during the journey the two men had been discussing if it was possible to preserve food other than using the salting method , sir fransis bacon was probably looking down at the brilliant white snow , and rubbing his hands together trying to keep himself warm , when all of a sudden , he had the crazy idea , that maybe food preserved in really cold conditions could stop it from spoiling .of course we know now that freezing food is a reliable way of preserving it ,but back then it was unheard of .and so to test the theory fransis bacon , went to a poor womans house that was at the bottom of high gate and purchase a chicken from her , who also slaughtered , gutted and plucked the unfortunate experimental bird.sir fransis bacon then went about packing the prepared chicken with snow , then placed it in a sack and then buried it in more snow , and voila , there you have the very first frozen chicken.unfortunatley for sir fransis bacon , whilst digging in the freezing cold conditions packing the chicken in the snow , he came down with a severe chill , and he was in no fit state to actually make it back to his own lodgings and was kindly alowed to sleep at Arundel House , in highgate ,un fortunatley the bed he was placed into hadnt been slept in for over a year and was damp and his chill quickly turned into pneumonia , and he died on the 9th of april 1626 only days after his experiment .but that wasnt the end of the story , you see ever since , through out the years , there have been many sightings of a distressed posibly phantom that likes to lurk around the area of pond square absolutley terrifing unlucky passers by who just so happen to lock eyes on the haunting appoirition ,but the ghost that haunts pond square isnt that of sir fransis bacon.please consider leaving a review, thank youhere is the link to the instagram post , come and share your thoughtshttps://www.instagram.com/p/Co...www.bizarrepodcast.com
Book Vs. Movie: Rear WindowThe 1942 Short Story Vs. the 1954 Classic FilmThe Margos are swooning throughout this episode for one of the greatest movies of all time, adapted from a short story by a very interesting (and prolific) author. Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window is one of his finest works based on the short story; It Had to be Murder by Cornell Woolrich. Woolrich is considered one of his generation's best mystery/suspense writers, with dozens of titles making it to movie adaptations, including The Bride Wore Black, Night Had a Thousand Eyes, Mrs. Winterbourne, and Original Sun. He was so proficient as a writer of novels, screenplays, and short stories he had two noms de plumes--William Irish & George Hopley. A lonely man (he once dedicated a book to his hotel room), when he passed in 1968, he left his work to his alma mater Columbia University which eventually helped change the copyright laws. (See Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act, 1998.)The story's bones are the same as the film: an injured man stuck in his apartment becomes a “peeping tom,” spying on his neighbors and being grumpy to “Sam,” who is paid to help him. Our protagonist believes he has witnessed a murder across the street and is trying to get the police to take him seriously. The 1954 adaptation was shot on the Paramount Studio lot with a full-sized apartment building courtyard to mimic the real thing in Greenwich Village. James Stewart plays LB “Jeff” Jeffries, a photojournalist who is home recovering from a broken leg. Jeff must wear a cast for one more week before returning to his adventurous life. He passes the time by snooping on his neighbors across the courtyard. Grace Kelly plays his impossible beautiful girlfriend from the upper crust society who is trying to get a commitment from Jeff. (He negs her constantly, which makes ZERO sense!) Jeff wants to see Lisa be more adventurous when he thinks he witnesses a murder across the courtyard. Thelma Ritter plays his nurse Stella, and the trio becomes detectives trying to figure out a sweaty salesman played by Raymond Burr (pre-Perry Mason) who may have made his wife disappear--permanently. This film lost out to many major awards to On the Waterfront (it was a contender!) However, time has turned it into a masterclass of direction, sound, editing, acting, and writing. The Margos debate between the original short story and the classic film--which did we like more?In this ep the Margos discuss:The backstory of writer Cornell WoolrichThe work of Alfred HitchcockThe cast of the 1954 film: James Stewart (LB “Jeff” Jefferies,) Grace Kelly (Lisa Carol Tremont,) Wendell Corey (Tom Doyle,) Thelma Ritter (Stella,) Raymond Burr (Lars Thorwald,) Judith Evelyn (Miss Lonelyhearts,) Ross Bagdarasian (the songwriter,) Miss Torso (Georgine Darcy,) and Irene Winston as Mrs. Thorwald.Clips used:Stella talks with LB JeffriesRear Window Original 1954 trailerJames Stewart gets the binocularsLisa shows upLisa gets caught snooping.Raymond Burr tosses Jimmy Stewart out the windowMusic: Franz WaxmanBook Vs.

Hailing from the Central Coast (NSW) alt-Rock duo Winterbourne (James Draper and Jordan Brady) are a refreshingly unique and energetic exhibition of musical tightness and indulgent banter - a style that they have honed through many years of continuous touring and friendship. The band walk the line between vintage rock and roll and new age pop, while staying true to their core formula of memorable melodies and perpetual harmonies. This episode I chat with Winterbourne about heading on tour for the first time in 3 years. We discussed the release of their latest tracks 'Forevermore' and 'Long Distance Runner', wisdom teeth fears, creating a movie based upon thier 2019 Echo of Youth Tour and people who talk during movies.
I recently attended a film appreciation class with Dale Pollock, called Senior Moments. And yes, as the name suggests, it was a look into how the film industry, Hollywood in particular, has treated aging. Not surprisingly it has not done a stellar job. When I asked Dale to tell me more about how the industry has changed, he said we've come a long way from depicting older characters as simply being the crazy old biddy or the wise decrepit grandfather. Especially when you look at a film like “Good Luck to you Leo Grande,” with Emma Thompson.He believes that advances in science and technology with regards aging will inform filmmaking and stories. When I ask Dale if there is anything that actors, filmmakers, and the industry in general can do to improve accurate and authentic representation of older characters, he points to three main things. The first is, as actors we must embrace our older selves. His second point is that directors, who are typically ‘risk averse', need to be more willing to cast 50-year-old characters who actually look 50. He also says those teaching in the many film schools around the country have to continue to move towards a more generous view of aging. He says, only then will filmmakers fully realize the dramatic and comedic potential of aging. Dale M. Pollock received a BA in Anthropology from Brandeis University in 1972 and MS in Communications from San Jose State University. In 1977, he became the head film critic for the Daily Variety until he was hired by the Los Angeles Times to be their chief entertainment correspondent. He was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in the early 1980s and wrote Skywalking: The Life and Films of George Lucas in 1984, which has sold more than 150,000 copies and remains in print. In 1985, Pollock joined David Geffen's company as a development executive, where he discovered the scripts for Beetlejuice, The Burbs and Universal Soldier. He joined A&M Films as vice president in charge of production, and was named president in 1990, producing such films as The Beast, The Mighty Quinn, A Midnight Clear and Mrs. Winterbourne. Pollock ran his own film company Peak Productions for 10 years, producing the box office hit Set It Off. He co-founded the producing program at the American Film Institute in 1995. In 1999 he became Dean of the School of Filmmaking at the (then) North Carolina School of the Arts, stepping down in 2006 to become Professor of Cinema Studies. He was awarded Emeritus status in 2019 and served as Interim Dean for nine months in 2021. Pollock was awarded an Endowed Professorship in Film in his name at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts School of Filmmaking and is the 2016 recipient of the UNC Board of Governors Award for Teaching Excellence. He also received the 2020 Arts Council of Winston Salem's Annual Award, its highest honor. Pollock's first work of fiction, Chopped: A Novel will be published in February 2023, and he is at work on a book about how Hollywood has treated aging in the movies.

Looking at the title and poster of this movie, you'd think you were about to watch a rom-com Christmas Hallmark movie, right? Well you could not be further from the truth as Mrs. Winterbourne truly exposes the horrors people are willing to go through to fit into a society they thought their whole lives they could not be a part of. But hey... Fraser has some pretty neat hair in this.

We're celebrating Frasuary with Diana's pick Mrs. Winterbourne (1996). She quickly points out this movie is While You Were Sleeping meets the '90s Sabrina remake. Ryan had to hold her hand as she dealt with the rewatch cringe. Fortunately Brenda Fraser's charm validates her choice. Connie, unwed and pregnant, is heading to Boston by train when she meets wealthy newlyweds Hugh and Patricia. The train crashes, and when Connie comes to in the hospital, she is mistaken for Patricia, who died in the crash with Hugh. Stars Shirley MacLaine, Ricki Lake, Brendan Fraser, Miguel Sandoval, Loren Dean, Peter Gerety, and Jane Krakowski.

Glyn opens this episode of the podcast with the announcement that he has moved the Hidden Wiltshire Headquarters from Trowbridge. Fearing that HQ had been relocated to Liverpool, Paul's initial shock was eased by the news that HQ is now at Heywood House on Capps Lane just outside Westbury! And just as Paul was left wondering where Glyn had got what was probably a five million quid asking price from, Glyn stated that in fact he was simply renting a desk in what is serviced office accommodation. From a £5m mansion to a lone desk in 30 seconds… However, this episode of the podcast focuses on a blog Paul posted on the Hidden Wiltshire website on 23 January 2021 about the River Till. A blog re-printed in the Tilshead Newsletter in March 2021. Fame at last! But first we talk about the last two weeks in Wiltshire, one day of which Paul spent in the Badlands of Gloucestershire. The excitement is building for Hidden Wiltshire's second book which this time is a collaborative effort between Glyn and Paul. With a fair wind and favourable conditions in Customs (since the book is being printed in the Netherlands) the book will be launched on 10 December at a surprise and secret venue. So it should be available just in time for Christmas. It's been an all-consuming effort but having seen a proof copy, which required a fair few tweaks, we're really excited about the release. Meanwhile Paul's had some interesting times of late working for Natural England. It's hoped the volunteers can work more independently on the local nature reserves in future which involves being trained and certified for all manner of tasks. The Government does like its health and safety courses. Paul spent a day last week near Cirencester on a 4x4 driving course where he learned that he had driven the nature reserve's old Landrover Defender all the way from Parsonage Down to Cirencester with the differential lock engaged. Which is not a good thing. It's no wonder he struggled to go round corners. And whilst working at the reserve this week the Defender was found to be abandoned in the farmyard. Broken! But not Paul's fault we hasten to add. Next step – tractor driving training. Still at Parsonage Down the volunteer team spent one day this week coppicing a small wood that provides shelter to the farm. It really highlighted the point we've made in a couple of podcasts, and in particular the one entitled Wiltshire Clumps, that woodland needs to be managed in the light of climate change and other challenges such as ash dieback. It was quite a shock to see how many trees in this small copse were dead or dying. Beech, ash, elder, hawthorn – all were dying back. Whilst some dead wood can be left to provide a rich habitat, much had to be cleared to allow the light to penetrate to the woodland floor. The area will we re-populated with a more diverse species of native tree which will provide a beautiful wood for future generations to enjoy. We then move on to the main subject – the River Till. This quintessential chalk winterbourne rises in Tilshead and flows all the way to Stapleford where it joins the Wylye. Many people quite understandably assume that Tilshead takes its name from the river. But this is not the case. The name is actually derived from "Theodwulf's hide”. The name Tilshead came into use in the 16th century. The river was called the Winterbourne until around the start of the 20th century, when the name River Till began to be used. Locally the river was also referred to as Waterlake, a name which subsists today in the form of Waterlake Lane in Orcheston. During the podcast we talk about the inevitable rich history that surrounds the Till. From the three Neolithic long barrows on the hill above Tilshead which are orientated along the lines of the river's re-entrants, to the story of the Orcheston grass that once grew in the water meadows in that village at a rate of 17 – 18 feet a year, to the Bronze and Iron Age round barrow cemetery of The Coniger between Shrewton and Winterbourne Stoke (where Roman pottery has also been found) to medieval Stapleford Castle, once the home of Jane Seymour's father. (Henry VIII's third wife, not the actress!) We also had a fairly monumental political rant! It's been widely reported that Wessex Water has been allowing raw sewage to enter the Till for several years – both at Orcheston and from the sewage treatment plant at Shrewton. According to The Times between July 2019 and June 2020 the Shrewton treatment works operated by Wessex Water spilt untreated sewage into the River Till for 5,110 hours, or more than seven months. Entreaties to Wessex Water, the Environment Agency and Natural England have all failed to resolve the issue. Meanwhile the water meadow next to Waterlake Lane in Orcheston, where the famed grass once grew, is virtually sterile. And during the spring of this year Paul saw young children playing in the stream just 50 metres below the sewage treatment works outfall. Is it any wonder that otters, water voles and brown trout are no longer or rarely seen in Shrewton? A truly disgraceful situation which the Government's new Bill does little to remedy. There is no map to follow along with this episode of the podcast. Paul pieced together the blog following two day long walks – one between Shrewton and Tilshead (which included Orcheston) and the other between Shrewton and Stapleford which can be extended to make a long day's walk taking in the hills either side of the Till valley that includes the views from Druids Lodge and returning via Yarnbury Castle and the ancient ridgeway across the Plain. A long point to point walk could easily be put together from Tilshead' where the river rises' to its end at Stapleford. Once for the longer days of summer. Then on to the wrap up: Steve Dixon's piece leading to our main subject is entitled “When Swallows Rise”. We've used it before but as Paul has spent many happy hours watching swallows dart around the Till just above the remains of the sluice gates below The Coniger, it seemed appropriate. As ever the piece in the introduction and at the end of the podcast is entitled “The Holloway”. Don't forget to subscribe to the Hidden Wiltshire Newsletter from the website.

Bill Myers Inspires I posted a simple meditation a couple days ago on Facebook "Pause. Reflect. RIP Mr. George Floyd," on the date of his killing one year later. The comments that came from my nearly 5000 Facebook friends regarding George Floyd began with "Career criminal, who committed suicide." from a white, retired Indianapolis Police Officer. The comments and debate that followed inspired me to examine these comments from my friend more closely, while pondering the question of where are we as individuals and a nation one year after George Floyd's murder?

Last week we took a small detour and discussed the Deuel House, the site of one of my personal paranormal experiences and switched meandered around history with no clear direction. However, while this week we are covering yet another haunted Victorian, a Queen-Anne to be precise, it has a much more unified and chilling history and yet again, somehow it circles back to me…I knew the name sounded familiar. However, as we have found out with most ghost stories on this podcast – the information that is perpetuated in the modern day is not often truthful or accurate. This week we are headed to Boyds, Maryland to investigate the Winderbourne Mansion. Now, I am saying Winderbourne because that's what everyone says and it sounds enchanting and like something from a Neil Gaman novel…but through my research I have my suspicions it's actually supposed to be pronounced Winder-bourne…even if it doesn't quite roll off the tongue or make any phonetical sense whatsoever. You'll have to let me know what you think. This legend is interesting, and I thought it had to be true since one of my sources is a government source but – spoiler – I don't think it is. This mansion has seen its fair share of tragedy and has been left abandoned for well over a decade. It was on the real estate market for probably just as long, but now it seems it is no longer for sale, so its future is uncertain, as is its past. Join me now to learn the alleged history of our Windy…or Windy…mansion. Winderbourne Mansion was built in 1884 at the behest of Enoch and Mary Totten. The Tottens lived in Washington DC but wished for a summer home to escape the hustle, bustle, and stifling heat of the city. The couple decided on a plot of land near Little Seneca Creek, where the B&O railroad line gently curved around the property on two sides. Access to the parcel of land was from Clopper Road, which the Tottens also purchased. Eventually, the railroad expanded from a single track to a double track and needed to cut off the road. The Tottens and the railroad came to a compromise, each paying half the cost of a bridge that went over the track and the railroad agreed to maintain the bridge in perpetuity. Enoch Totten did well for himself, as he was a prominent lawyer in DC and was a Civil War Veteran…he even managed to survive being shot four times at the Battle of Spotslyvania Court House…in fact, one of these shots may have been his own fault as a projectile bounced off of his sabre and hit his right hand. Regardless of this strange mishap and his career as a lawyer – the capital for the construction of Winderbourne mansion came from his wife, Mary. Mary was the daughter of a Wisconsin senator named Timothy Howe who was the cousin and heir to the massive fortune of Elias Howe, the inventor of the Bobbin-Winder. This device is what inevitably inspired the name of Winderbourne. When Winderbourne was completed it was painted a pale pink with dark rose trim and shutters of a deep plum – a vibrant contrast to its current pallid, moss-covered facade. It's architecture was unique, sporting a triangular fireplace, a room suspended above the foyer, and hidden rain spouts that directed water to an underground cistern. The Tottens hosted elaborate formal affairs on their lawn, landscaped with rare and exotic plants imported from around the world. And while Winderbourne acted as the Totten's summer home, it was staffed all year long, with increased staff during their stay. In addition to the parties on their lawn, they also hosted extravagant dinner events. However, the food was never set upon the table; instead maids would carry around silver platters and bowls and served those who were seated at the table. Sadly, the Totten's life was soon struck by tragedy. The three Totten children contracted typhoid fever from drinking contaminated water. Two of the children survived, while one of their sons died from the grisly disease. This tragedy soured the Totten's love of the Winderbourne property. However, they kept the property and it stayed in the family. One of the Totten daughter's, Edith, inspired by her tragic childhood experience became a physician and came into ownership of Winderbourne sometime before 1915. She did not marry but adopted a daughter. The little girl loved Winderbourne, exploring its every nook and cranny, running through its magic halls that seemed to never end. One of her favourite activities was to slide down the bannister of the massive staircase that led to the foyer. However, one day when she slid down the bannister as always, she gained a little bit too much speed, lost control, flew off, and fell to her death. The curved railroad track around the home was straightened and the bridge that was supposed to have been maintained by the railroad company was demolished. Leaving the Tottens with no access to their home. The Tottens took the case to court and the home and surrounding property was sold off to the railroad. Not long after, Edith Totten dropped dead unexpectedly after giving a lecture at John Hopkins University at only 48 years old. Winderbourne Mansion was repurchased by the Pickrell family in 1929. Edward and Beulah Pickrell raised their two sons, Edward Jr. and Paxton on the property. Both Edward and Beulah passed away, leaving the property to Edward in their will. During Edward Jr.'s ownership the house began to fall into disrepair, and he eventually passed away in 2004, leaving the responsibility of the quickly decaying property to Paxton. To this day the house remains abandoned. Vines and the surrounding vegetation have completely engulfed the property. Blending in more and more with Black Hills regional park that sits against the estate. Winderbourne Mansion, once elegantly groomed, now appears like a map from a post-apocalyptic video game with several old muscle cars left abandoned in the yard and furniture, clothes, books, and magazines still left inside. While the house has decayed and succumbed to the elements, the ghosts of its past still roam its halls in opulence; ignorant to the passing of time and the erosion of their beloved mansion. This story continues to befuddle me. I've spent so much time trying to confirm parts of this story, that as of now seem impossible. Let's see…where should we start? There are a few articles on this house and its history, they all seem to refer back to an article from the Washington Post. I dug a little deeper and hit the jackpot! Or what I thought was the jackpot: a 1978 report on the home's history available through Maryland's government website. It is an ACHS summary form, I cannot figure out what it stands for but I'm guessing it's a historical site or historical society. This form seems legitimate, I had no reason to doubt it. It compiles the history and it seems this is where most of the information available on the home and the Tottens stems from. When I started doing my own research though…I found some conflicting information. All sources say that Enoch and Mary Totten had three children and that they lost a son to typhoid fever after all the children fell ill after drinking some contaminated drinking water at Winderbourne. The historic report also details this while also saying that all drinking water there was boiled prior to use and that the cisterns that collected the water were regularly cleaned. Still, there is always room for error, this is not what I found strange. Instead, I found that the Tottens had four children: Edith, Howe, Gerald, and Alice. Even stranger still only one of them died…a daughter…but before the house was ever built. Alice Crosby Totten died at the age of 16 on October 6, 1881 according to Washington D.C.'s Evening Critic and her tombstone. Both of the Totten sons outlived Edith by decades and died in their seventies. Now, I did find the obituary for Edith Totten. Which…goes to show the stupidity of machine reading or people, I haven't decided. Some databases let you “clip” stories for collections and you can add information. For whatever reason her one obituary in the Richmond Times Dispatch was clipped with her name being recorded as “Edith Tettea Saeeamba” while her siblings names' were recorded accurately. This happened because of the title: Lecturer Dies: Dr. Edith Totten Succumbs at John Hopkins. I'm assuming this is yet another OCR issue but luckily the search picked up Edith and the Totten of her brothers and I was able to locate it. But I digress. Edith passed away after she completed a lecture on “Imagination and Thought” of a cerebral hemorrhage. So it appears this story is true. I was not able to find any record of her adopted daughter but it is entirely possible it happened. I am really curious about Edith's story as she never married, inherited Winderbourne, and became a doctor and professor at John Hopkins. For a woman produced of the Victorian age I find that so fascinating and impressive. However, there isn't too much on her. I was also surprised there were no pre-researched family trees for the family. Her father, mother, and brothers all had some historical significance and I found it odd. The name Winderbourne or Winderbourne or Winterbourne sounded so familiar to me and I found out that is because one of Howe Totten founded Winderbourne Kennels who bred Great Danes. Now you're probably like…why…does that make the name familiar to you? For those of you who don't know I used to serve as the librarian for the American Kennel Club; and a lot of my time was spent researching pedigrees or dog genealogy for various researchers as well as digitizing and archiving old photographs. I spent a good time with Great Danes and yes, this was a prominent kennel name I had seen time and time again! They bred a lot of champions and if I'm not mistaken were one of the more foundational kennels for the breed. I just always thought it was pronounced Winderbourne. So the more you know! It really is a small, small world. But I digress! Enough about dogs. So how did all this information about the family's three children and a son dying get so…wrong? I looked into the report a little deeper. All the stories about the Totten family tragedies were not from written record but were instead from a 1978 personal interview with a Hershey Ayton. While I love oral histories and I think they're great for personal experiences, preserving indigenous languages, and folklore…I do not believe they're great for accurately recording events before your lifetime from another family. Now, perhaps Ayton was some type of authority on the subject and they have information we're not privy to…that cannot be known. But, insofar as the documents available to me, since I cannot access a lot of paper records without visiting institutions in Maryland, it doesn't seem like their accounts are wholly accurate. Alice Totten surely died very young but it was before the home was built and she was not, to my knowledge, a son. Another fascinating facet of this story is how Mary Totten got her money. I won't go into it but Elias Howe does not get enough credit in these news stories. Elias Howe while he was not the inventor of the sewing machine per say, he is the one that perfected it, creating the lockstitch sewing machine. He was awarded the first patent for the device in 1846. His machine included the three foundational mechanisms of modern sewing machines: a needle with the eye at the point instead of the back, an automatic feed, and a shuttle beneath the fabric to form the lock stitch. However, despite being awarded the patent he could not find investors in the United States and so went to England. There were some business disputes and so despite selling the machine, he did not make any money. Upon his return to the United States he found that many other entrepreneurs were selling and manufacturing sewing machines using his methods. Most famously, he became embroiled, or maybe we'll say embroidered, in a court case lasting from 1849 to 1854 with none other than Isaac Singer of Singer machine fame. Isaac Singer and Walter Hunt had perfected a version of Elias Howe's machine and were selling it with the exact lockstitch that Howe had invented and patented. In the end, Howe won the lawsuit and gained a rather amazing deal in the process: he was able to collect royalties on all lockstitch sewing machines sold by not only Singer, but a number of other manufacturers as well. This is how the Howe's became filthy, filthy rich. Howe also patented the zipper, or as he called it, “automatic continuous clothing closure” which doesn't have the same ring to it. He never pursued it seriously so he is not credited with its creation. Elias Howe died at age 48 of a massive blood clot in 1867. So how did Mary Howe Totten receive his fortune? Elias' first wife died, leaving him no children and Howe's brothers also died. While Elias' did remarry, his cousin, Timothy Howe, Mary's father, became the heir to the fortune, which is eventually passed down to Mary herself. Very convoluted, very confusing. But extremely interesting nonetheless. Insofar as the ghosts of the mansion…if there are any…you could technically visit yourself. But I do not recommend it, at least physically speaking. It is still private property as Paxton Pickrell has been trying to sell it since 2004. It was originally listed at 2 million dollars, dropping to 1.5, and then to 895,000. It never sold. It's very tragic since it is such a unique home, described by the Maryland historical document as “the only grand and elegant structure in the simple rural town of Boyds” However, elegant it is no longer. The gardens are overgrown, with some of the rare vegetation from the Totten's exotic gardens still flourishing. Many people still come to the property, trespassing, I may add. But lucky for you, if you're interested you can find many urban explorers who have recorded their visits. Some of their personalities are grating while others are not, but you can explore the whole of the property through these videos. Some people come because it's creepy, strangely many people visit for the abandoned muscle cars on the lawn. Regardless of their motivations, it surely looks quite haunted…but I have not been able to locate any tales of real ghost sightings or encounters. The real horror here is the home's history…or…the urban legend of it, rather. However, Paxton Pickrell, who grew up in the house said “That place to me was just a wonderful home” and was rather perturbed when the home was first published on a list of “the spookiest, creepiest old houses for sale in America” on a real estate website. The house is dilapidated, the local government has purchased all the land surrounding it. According to Pickrell, the county has been trying to take the 9 acres of the property and that his defiance in selling it is standing in the way of progress. I stand with Pickrell on this one. While the property itself may not be haunted, what remains is a skeleton of the past. Once a place of grandeur and wealth, it sits covered in vines looking more like the home of the Addams family or the set of a Scooby Doo cartoon. Daring urban explorers frequent the site to catch a glimpse into the past, and I recommend checking it out. I will post some images of its current state on the podcast Instagram, @CrimesAndWitchDemeanors, but I also recommend checking out some of the videos. It's eerie how many objects are still left in the house. But that is all for today's episode. Please, if you enjoy the podcast, tell a friend or two, force them into listening by any means necessary. Leave a review if you're particularly cool. And until next time; don't slide down the bannister, adamantly defend your patents, and of course, stay curious, and stay spooky. Bye~

15 minutes with Emma Nicholson, Baroness Nicholson of Winterbourne, a former MP and MEP and a life peer since 1997. She has worked in the Middle East for many years, with a particular interest in countering cruelty and extremism. She is the Chair of the AMAR Foundation, which helps to rebuild and improve the lives of disadvantaged communities in war-torn areas, and President of the Iraq Britain Business Council (IBBC), which builds business links with Iraw, by facilitating trade investment, human resources support, training and technology transfer. In this podcast, Baroness Nicholson speaks to Helen Taylor, our Press & Communications Officer, about regional disparities in community cohesion, the forces that make communities more divisive, and Britain since the Brexit referendum. She calls for a greater focus on debating skills, the arts and religious teaching in schools, the importance of knowing how to argue effectively, and the importance of schools and local businesses working together. She also describes her involvement in bringing the IBBC to Cumberland Lodge, and the role of the private sector in helping to rebuild democracy in war-torn countries. This recording was made in January 2017, as part of a series of podcasts to celebrate our 70th anniversary as an educational foundation.

This episode is brought to you by Nature's Path Organics RICKI LAKE Biography From acting and producing, to dancing her way into the hearts of television audiences, Emmy Award-winning television host Ricki Lake is a pop culture icon who has built a career on her graciously candid sensibility and her authentic, relatable nature. In recent years, she has channeled her nurturing spirit and drive for social change into passion projects that are altering the way society views birth, breastfeeding, childhood obesity and birth control. Lake’s legacy and perhaps her greatest love is her role as independent filmmaker. Her award-winning, critically acclaimed documentary “The Business of Being Born” debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2007 and is often hailed as the “must see” film among mothers-to-be “I was profoundly affected by the births of my two sons in ways I never anticipated,” Lake comments. “It can be one of the most empowering experiences in a woman’s life. But part of that involves having options and being the decision-maker in what you want that experience to be.” Lake and creative partner Abby Epstein co-wrote the book, “Your Best Birth” and released “More Business of Being Born” a four-part DVD series featuring celebrities sharing their birth stories, as well as an in-depth discussion on the birth process. “The Business of Being Born” franchise includes a thirty-minute classroom edition, which has screened at hundreds of schools all over the country. Under their joint venture BOBB Films, Epstein and Lake served as Executive Producers of the 2014 documentary “Breastmilk” and the upcoming, “The Mama Sherpas.” BOBB Films is also in production on two new feature documentaries: “Weed the People” and “Sweetening the Pill.” Lake teamed up with All Stride and John Monaco, MD for her book “Too Big to be Small,” which examines childhood obesity as an epidemic, but also gives a realistic approach to helping kids lose weight. Lake shares her personal struggles as an overweight child and her path to discovering her life purpose and happiness. The world first met Lake in 1988 as Tracy Turnblad in John Waters’ film “Hairspray.” Her additional film credits include “Cry-Baby,” “Serial Mom,” “Working Girl,” “Last Exit to Brooklyn,” and “Mrs. Winterbourne.” Television credits include “Babycakes,” “China Beach,” “The King of Queens,” “Matters of Life & Dating,” and “Loving Leah.” More recently, Ricki made a guest appearance on her favorite new show, “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.” At the age of 24, Lake became one of the youngest daily talk show hosts in history with the debut of “The Ricki Lake Show.” After 11 successful seasons, “The Ricki Lake Show” wrapped in 2005 but returned in 2012, garnering Lake the Emmy for Outstanding Talk Show Host. Lake also competed on the 13th season of “Dancing with the Stars,” where she made it to the finals with partner and three-time champion Derek Hough. Lake has become an integral figure in the birthing community, having served for many years on the board of Choices in Childbirth, a nonprofit organization that strives to improve maternity care all over the world. In addition, she is a strong supporter of gay and lesbian rights working with various organizations such as The Trevor Project. Lake is also the proud mother of 19-year-old Milo and 15-year-old Owen. “They are both creative, compassionate and independent thinkers,” Lake comments. “Motherhood is the most challenging and the most rewarding part of my life.” ABBY EPSTEIN has been producing and directing documentaries for over ten years with her partner, Ricki Lake. Their first collaboration was the celebrated feature documentary The Business of Being Born, which premiered at the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival.

The award- winning doc inspired their book Your Best Birth, (Hachette) and the follow-up docuseries More Business of Being Born featuring Cindy Crawford, Alanis Morissette, Gisele Bundchen and Christy Turlington.
