  Viola MacMillan had it all: success, money, and respect. Influence, even. But in 1964, after three decades in the mining industry, one of the most fascinating women in Canadian business history was the central character in one of the country's most famous stock scandals. 
   
   
   
  MacMillan, who started out as a prospector in the '30s, had developed lucrative mines and put together big deals. But she still wanted "a major discovery." Early in July 1964, shares in Windfall Oil and Mines, a company she and her husband controlled, traded for around 56 cents. Then one day, the stock took off. In the absence of any information from the company about what it had found near Timmins on its claims, rumors and greed pushed the share price to a high of $5.70. MacMillan stayed quiet. Finally, after three weeks, Windfall admitted it had nothing. 
   
   
   
  So many small investors lost money when the stock crashed that the Ontario government appointed a royal commission to examine what had happened, which led to changes at the Ontario Securities Commission and the Toronto Stock Exchange. Although MacMillan spent a few weeks in prison, she later received a pardon and the Order of Canada.

  The Science of Mummification -...

  Mummification, the art and science of preserving bodies after death, has fascinated both historians and scientists for centuries. In ancient Egypt, mummification was not merely a process of preservation but also a vital part of the culture’s religious beliefs. The Egyptians believed in an afterlife, where the soul would continue to exist in a parallel realm. The preservation of the body was considered essential for the soul’s journey, as it would serve as a vessel for the soul's return. This chapter delves into the origins and purpose of mummification, shedding light on the techniques that evolved over millennia. 
  The practice of mummification is believed to have begun around 3500 BCE, initially as a natural process. Early Egyptians buried their dead in shallow graves in the hot, dry desert sands. The dry conditions naturally desiccated the bodies, preserving them for years or even centuries. However, as Egyptian society developed and religious beliefs became more complex, the need for a more deliberate and refined method of preservation emerged. Over time, the Egyptians developed techniques to prevent decomposition, ensuring that the deceased would be preserved for the afterlife. 
  Mummification’s primary purpose was to ensure the deceased’s body remained intact for the soul’s journey to the afterlife. Ancient Egyptians believed that the body was necessary for the soul to recognize and reunite with the deceased in the next world. The process, therefore, was not just about keeping the body intact; it was about ensuring the deceased's spiritual well-being. Alongside the physical mummification process, elaborate burial rituals were performed, including the offering of food, goods, and prayers to help guide the deceased through the afterlife.

  The life and crimes of Kevin John Simmonds, Australia's most daring fugitive. 
   
  In 1959, Australians thrilled to every move made by a new criminal underdog, a Ned Kelly for the rock 'n' roll era. 
  Kevin John Simmonds was a charismatic crook whose brazen crime spree had scored him a lengthy prison sentence. But as he was led from court, he boasted, 'They'll never hold me.' 
  Two months later, Simmo made good on his promise, staging a daring escape from Long Bay Gaol. When his bid for freedom took a deadly turn, legendary Detective Ray 'the Gunner' Kelly took charge of the search, putting the fugitive in the crosshairs of the biggest armed manhunt in Australian history. 
  They'll Never Hold Me is the true story of an antihero with a code of honour who captured the public's hearts and minds even as he enraged the cops and the establishment. Brilliantly researched and written by Michael Adams, of the Forgotten Australia podcast, this never-before-told tale takes us beyond the public adventures that made Simmo into Public Enemy No. 1 to reveal the haunting tragedies he was trying to outrun – and the terrible fate that even he might not escape.
