It’s hard to imagine that anyone selling milkweed would treat it with pesticides, since the vast majority of milkweed customers are buying it to support monarch caterpillars and butterflies. Unfortunately, this is not always the case… The word regicide seems to have come into popular use among continental Catholics when Pope Sixtus V renewed the papal bull of excommunication against the "crowned regicide" Queen Elizabeth I, [4] for—among other things—executing Mary, Queen of Scots, in 1587, although she had abdicated the Scottish crown some 20 years earlier. [5] Elizabeth had originally been excommunicated by Pope Pius V, in Regnans in Excelsis, for converting England to Protestantism after the reign of Mary I of England. Being accused of conspiring with the devil through witchcraft or practising incantations was one way people found themselves in Henry's crosshairs. The fate facing those accused of heresy was arrest and a hideous death either by being burned at the stake or through public hanging. Elizabeth Barton Saunders, S. P.; Ries, L.; Oberhauser, K. S.; Thogmartin, W. E. & Zipkin, E. F. (2018). "Local and cross‐seasonal associations of climate and land use with abundance of monarch butterflies Danaus plexippus". Ecography. 41 (2): 278-290. There is evidence that regicide and the ability of states to keep or even expand their territories are negative correlated: Firstly, elite violence hindered the development of territorial state capacity, and the killing of rulers also directly resulted in a more likely loss of territory. And secondly, state capacity, reflected by territorial state capacity, could be hypothesized to have had a restraining effect on interpersonal violence. This would be consistent with Pinker's (2011) [2] view that modern state capacity leads to a reduction in violence, both interpersonal and in terms of military conflict. [3] Britain [ edit ]

Zipkin’s team also used satellite imagery to quantify the amount of living plant material in a given landscape. When the southern U.S. was greener in the fall, more monarchs arrived in Mexico; when it was browner, as happens during droughts, fewer did. This pattern arose because greener, healthier plants produce more nectar capable of sustaining migrating monarchs, Zipkin and her co-authors suspect. And indeed, a powerful drought hit the southern U.S. between 2010 and 2013, just as the Mexican monarch population was bottoming out. Kurt Russell is perhaps the best thing about the entire show. The actor is so breezy, so charming, that he lights up the screen whenever he appears. His son does well too, but it’s the older Russell who holds our attention … This may be a streaming TV series, but Russell is an old-school movie star, and that lends “Monarch” some much-needed juice.

And the necessity for a united British army was urgent with a renewed threat from the north. The Danes had recommenced raids along England’s coast, breaking the treaty they had made with Aethelred’s father, Edgar. After the English suffered a serious defeat at the Battle of Maldon in 991, Aethelred began paying tribute to the Danes in return for peace. However, the Danes were hard to appease and had restarted hostilities by 997. Karen Oberhauser was scrambling up a mountain about 100 kilometers northwest of Mexico City when she began to fear for the future of the monarch butterfly. It was the winter of 1996–1997, and Oberhauser, an ecologist then working at the University of Minnesota and more accustomed to the flat, low-lying U.S. Midwest, huffed and puffed during the steep, high-altitude hike. Her head ached in the thin air. But when she stopped to look around, she saw millions of monarchs draped like living jewels on fir trees that hugged the slopes. These are the monarch predators that you unwittingly invite in to your cage, trapping them inside with your unsuspecting monarchs. I have done this with small spiders and stink bugs. This can be a problem when you raise on potted plants because of all the nooks and crannies where predators can easily avoid detection. Charles’s illness was grotesquely misunderstood at the time – interpreted as a sign that the king was probably bewitched; he would even undergo an exorcism in the final years of his life.While its occasional deep-cut references demand a familiarity with a franchise most audiences are ambivalent about — who really remembers the nuances of Godzilla: King Of The Monsters? — its ambitious time- and globe-trotting storytelling makes the most of the series’ giant canvas, even in a smaller screen size. Regicide is the purposeful killing of a monarch or sovereign of a polity and is often associated with the usurpation of power. A regicide can also be the person responsible for the killing. The word comes from the Latin roots of regis and cida ( cidium), meaning "of monarch" and "killer" respectively. One of the key points of Felton’s overall argument is that the examples that she has highlighted are not necessarily always entirely factual (this is obviously particularly true with regard to the activities of early heroes such as Hercules and Theseus), but rather that certain aspects of them can be rationalised and are thus potentially factual. She notes that ancient authors such as Pausanias and Palaephatus were of the same mind, making the same points in their attempts to explain atrocities such as the Sphinx that terrorised Thebes until the intervention of Oedipus.

Lewis killed himself in prison at the age of 33, while awaiting trial for the murder of a young mother and the kidnapping of her child. Shortly before his death Lewis told his partner about his infamous attempt to assassinate the Queen of England. Anyone who has read any crime fiction set in ancient Greece or Rome, such as Lindsey Davis’ Marcus Didius Falco series and its companion Flavia Albia series, or Steven Saylor’s Roma Sub Rosa series, for example, will be familiar with the concept of serial killers operating in ancient settings, whether the plots are based on historical figures and events, or entirely fictitious. But is there any actual evidence for the presence of serial killers in ancient Greece and/or Rome?

Executions for Refusing the Oath of Supremacy

By the age of 17, Lewis had a history of armed robbery, arson and animal torture. He idolised the Australian bandit Ned Kelly and American serial killer Charles Manson. In the late 1970s, after a long search, biologists discovered the tiny mountainside forests where monarchs were overwintering in Mexico. The late Lincoln Brower, who worked as a biologist at Amherst College and then at the University of Florida, helped to persuade Mexican officials to place the forests under protection, launching the monarch conservation movement. Only Smeaton, being a commoner, was tortured and his false confession used to condemn the Queen. All accused were believed to have been innocent of the charges. Anne was executed in a private setting in the Tower of London on the 19th May 1536. George Boleyn (Viscount Rochford) (1503-1536) The opening speech of Charles I at his trial, The Constitution Society, archived from the original on 10 May 2012 When Louis nearly died in an accident in 817, he decided to ensure that, should he suddenly expire, there would be a neat plan of succession to set out who ruled what in the Frankish empire. He confirmed that his nephew Bernard would remain the king of Italy, but the will described his son Lothair’s position as ‘overlord’, implying that Italy would be submissive to him. Needless to say, the wording of this document did not please Bernard and, spurred on by rumours that Lothair was to invade, he set about preparing a rebellion.

Both of these events can be disturbing and disappointing, but here’s how you can largely avoid them: As improbable as it sounds, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters’ focus on individual people spurred to action by the emergence of Godzilla and his fellow Titans is exactly what makes the show a surprise delight — one that feels like it has potential to be both a proper hit for Apple TV Plus and a strong step forward for the MonsterVerse franchise as a whole.

Her name was Fredegund, and she soon caught the eye of the king. But Fredegund was unwilling to remain a mistress, and Queen Galswintha was soon strangled, with Fredegund replacing her as Chilperic’s wife. Charles II’s condition was no secret among the European court. He was just three years old when the throne became his and his mother, Mariana, became queen regent, designating much of the work of governing the country to advisors. Wood raising cages are hard to disinfect, which can cause ongoing disease issues. According to Monarch expert Dr. Karen Oberhauser: While at the time much of the blame for these actions were put on Anne, they are now considered to be the actions of her megalomaniacal husband and his desperation to have a male heir.
