The Grotesque 1893 Texas Lynching That Shocked Americans
The lynching of Henry Smith, who was burned alive before a large Texas crowd in 1893, shocked many but did nothing to end the scourge of lynching.

I can't believe, in the middle of another heatwave, the Government is seriously considering letting a new gas field go ahead. Ed Miliband must block this plan. Agree? Join me and add your name to this new petition against the Jackdaw gas field: 38d.gs/fhc5

Hudson Bay #OnThisDay
On 2 August 1610 English explorer Henry Hudson entered the bay later named after him, the Hudson Bay. It was the search for a Western route to the East Indies and China that encouraged the exploration of the very northern parts of North America. Henry Hudson was on his fourth voyage to North America. He sailed around Greenland's west coast and into the bay (later called Hudson Bay by the explorers who followed him), mapping much of its eastern coast.

Every Mother’s Son
By Bernie Bell. Having read this article in The Orkney News I thought, and wrote, the following Imagine that you’re a Russian woman. A mother, wife or girlfriend. Your son, husband or boyfriend is a soldier who goes to ’fight’ in The Ukraine. When he comes home, you sit across the table from him and you think….’Did he?’ A soldier’s job is understood to involve maiming and killing but in today’s world of war, other approaches to subjugation are becoming more common, normalized, even……in a very strange twist on the use of the word, accepted. Now, the question isn’t just did he maim or kill, it’s also….’Did he?’ Photo by Alexander Mass on Pexels.com

Orkney Enclosed Part 3: Money & Measurements
In 1707 when the two Parliaments of Scotland and England were joined with the Treaty of Union did anyone ask 'What currency shall we use?' Whether they did or not the Scots currency was replaced by that of England - and yet it wasn't. Those of our readers of a certain age will remember when the UK changed over to decimal coinage - 15 February 1971.

“The discovery opens a window into a world that is dark, ancient and almost entirely hidden—but is far from lifeless.”
Hundreds of feet below Earth's surface, rocks and water teem with fungi and support complex ecosystems of tiny organisms, according to a University of Michigan study, which finds that fungi are far more abundant deep below ground than researchers previously thought. The study, led by U-M doctoral candidate Quinn Moon, is believed to be the first time fungal abundance has been successfully quantified in a deep subsurface site, as far as 1,640 feet below ground.
