Send us a Text Message.Embark on an enthralling exploration of the mystical as we engage with CJ Toca, the creative force behind "The Secret Heir" and "The Vacant Seat." Toca enjoys writing suspense and mystery fiction with an eye toward the spiritual or mystical aspects of life, and it should be no surprise that "The Secret Heir" contains both spiritual and mystical components. Toca enjoys settings that are somewhat unique and not often used, such as rural and urban New Jersey, rural Scotland, Malta, the Cape Verde Islands, Brazil, Turkmenistan, rural Arizona, and Mexico in "The Secret Heir." "The Vacant Seat" transports the reader to Italy, but also again to rural Scotland and Brazil. Toca's intent is to paint a vivid description of these locales, transporting the reader there. As an avid reader of fiction and non-fiction, an Anglophile, and a buff of religion, art, and history, Toca's interests shine through in his writing.In this episode, CJ opens up about his literary journey, revealing how he intricately weaves threads of suspense and spirituality into his characters' transformative experiences. Stefania and Thomas become our guides through thrilling mysteries, their skepticism giving way to profound spiritual insights. Grappling with the fusion of fact and fiction, CJ recounts the challenges of embedding authentic historical and religious lore within his tales, inviting readers to witness Stefania's evolution from doubt to clairvoyance in his upcoming novel, "The Lost Painting."Prepare to be captivated as we traverse through the rich tapestry of spiritual themes that CJ Toca masterfully depicts in his adventure-laden trilogy. The personal odysseys of Stefania and Thomas are set against the backdrop of iconic cultural and spiritual locales, from the sacred corridors of the Vatican to the vibrant heart of Brazil. Their journey is punctuated by a love for art and music, with Stefania's connection to Caravaggio and the operatic realm underscoring the profound role such expressions play in our search for meaning. As we eagerly anticipate "The Lost Painting," we are teased with the promise of deeper clairvoyant experiences and a shrouded secret about Thomas poised to weave an even richer narrative of life, death, and the supernatural.To learn more about CJ Toca Click Here  Support the Show.We hope you found the episode to be enlightening and insightful.

Tonight, we'll read excerpts from the first chapter of Charles Darwin's “The Voyage of the Beagle”. This chapter explores around the islands of Cape Verde. “The Voyage of the Beagle” is the title most commonly given to the book published in 1839 as Darwin's “Journal and Remarks”, bringing him considerable fame and respect. This was the third volume of “The Narrative of the Voyages of H.M. Ships Adventure and Beagle”, the other volumes of which were written or edited by the commanders of the ships. “Journal and Remarks” covers Darwin's part in the second survey expedition of the ship HMS Beagle. Due to the popularity of Darwin's account, the publisher reissued it later in 1839 as “Darwin's Journal of Researches”. A republication of the book in 1905 introduced the title “The Voyage of the "Beagle"”, by which it is now best known. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

The enigma machine was supposed to be Nazi Germany's unbreakable code machine. It's network carried the bulk of the German secret communications from the 1920's through the end of WWII in May of 1945. The machines carried by German Naval units, including U-Boats, were a complex gizmo of gears and wheels and keys, that required the correct plug in board to produce the encrypted messages that controlled the communications of the German Wolfpacks and other military units. The German military believed that the Enigma code was utterly unbreakable. During the course of the war, two Nazi U-boats were captured with their Enigma machines intact. First by the British in May of 1941, provided the allies with the information that would come to be known as "Ultra." This intelligence, derived from reading Enigma messages, helped the Allies turn the tide of the Battle of the Atlantic (it is also the source of the controversial film, U-571). By June of 1944, the Germans had updated their codes with newer machines and better codes, which while penetrated, were becoming more secure again.  On June 4, 1944, Task Group 22.3, led by Captain Daniel Gallery of the USN, detected a German U-boat off the Cape Verde Islands. The U-505 was not a "lucky boat" in the strictest of sense, although until this day she had always managed to survive the predicaments in which found herself. This day... would change history... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/plausibly-live/message

On From Sparks to Light, we hear the stories of people who are making a difference. People who are giving back in various ways. What we don't often hear, however, is the stories of how their actions impact others. What happens because of that work. In 2024, Honoring Our Experience will celebrate its 10th anniversary. Over the next year we will hear the voices of the people who have become integral members of the long-term survivor's community that Honoring Our Experience has helped create. People who never imagined they would live long enough to look back and recognize the path they'd walked and discover the new one that stood in front of them. People who have found their spark and are leading the journey forward.This week, Gregg Cassin, the founder of that extraordinary program and I talk to Carlos Ferriera who tells us how important community was in his recovery and learned to forgive himself and find his purpose.Carlos immigrated to America at the age of 4 from the then Portuguese African colony of the Cape Verde Islands. He grew up in Brooklyn, New York, and fulfilled his parent's dream by becoming the first member of his family to obtain a college degree. In 1982, he left for Southern California as the New York City winters were bleeding him and the pall of death hung heavy.He hoped to escape the ravages of AIDS. But in 1985 he tested positive with a 3-year life expectancy. Fortunately, he turned out to be a long term non-progressor. He survived HIV/AIDS, but  almost did not survive the meth epidemic in the 2010s. He am eternally grateful to SFAF, in particular the harm reduction based Stonewall Project, for helping me turn his life completely around.“My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so, with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some STYLE”. - Carlos FerrieraYou can learn more and support the work of Honoring Our Experience here.To learn more about Robert Maggio, the composer of "Where Love is Love," our theme music, please check out his website.To learn more about Suzanne, visit her website.

Senior Scientist at Bird Life International, previously the Principal Scientist at the RSPB, and before that at the BTO, Paul Donald is a world expert on things that fly. As such, it is perhaps somewhat surprising that he has focused this expertise into a groundbreaking book about roads, the things that travel upon them, and the damage they do to nature. This in depth discussion of two halves begins by showcasing how Paul helped re-establish the population of one of the world's most endangered birds - the Raso Lark of the Cape Verde Islands, how birds living within the EU have greater life expectancy than those living outside it, and how Buddhist beliefs may be inadvertently bolstering the illegal trade in rare birds. From then it's on to the “extinction driving, landscape splitting, wildlife slaughtering, soundscape shattering, pollution spewing, climate changing, health wrecking, global catastrophe” which Paul has labelled ‘Traffication'. Did you know that the area in a bird's brain dedicated to song learning is smaller in a bird exposed to road noise? Did you know the first electric car dates from 1888? And did you know that there is a species of Nightjar known to exist purely because of a single piece of feathered roadkill scraped up from the tarmacadam?! But most importantly, if you drive a car, what single thing can you do today to help our wildlife? This and much more in November's episode of Trees a Crowd.

About Tony Gomes and Advanced Wealth Management: Hello, my name is Tony Gomes, and I am the founder of Advanced Wealth Management. I want you to know that my firm has your best interest at heart. Our work ethic and beliefs are the culmination of years of overcoming adversities, and because of our journey, we place the wellbeing of our clients above all else. To help you understand the environment in which you entrust your financial hopes, let me tell you a bit about myself and how I came to be here today. I spent my childhood continuously moving among the Cape Verde Islands, with little to no supervision and gnawing hunger in my belly. At the age of nine, my journey to the United States was fraught with tension. I came from a fatherless background and was thrust into racial disparity, but I managed to come out on top through hard work and determination, despite the view of many that my heritage wouldn't allow me to succeed. I went from a young boy on the streets of New Bedford with no grasp of the English language, to a successful marketing agent, with a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance and Marketing through the University of Massachusetts and a Master's of Business Administration from the University of Texas. Tired of the long hours in the corporate world, marketing for brands such as Gatorade and Tropicana, it became evident that if I truly wanted to succeed and be the best father I could be to my children, I would need to rely on myself as I had throughout my childhood.I became a partner with a venture capital firm. One of the companies we funded, Inktomi, which Yahoo acquired in 2003 for an unbelievable sum, and then, after searching my soul on how best I could give back to my community, moved into the world of financial planning. After many years of working with a company that didn't have my clients' best interest in mind, I started Advanced Wealth Management in Florida with a Family Office mentality, committed to helping potential retirees through a Holistic Retirement approach.

Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe词汇提示1.leopards 豹子原文Chapter Two: Down the coast of AfricaFor two long years I lived the life of a slave.I worked in the house and the garden, and every day I planned to escape, but it was never possible.I thought about it day and night.My master liked to go fishing in a little boat, and he always took me with him.A man called Moely, and a young boy also went with us.One day my master said to us, 'Some of my friends want to go fishing tomorrow. Get the boat ready.'So we put a lot of food and drink on the boat, and the next morning, we waited for my master and his friends.But when my master arrived, he was alone.'My friends don't want to go fishing today,' he said to me. 'But you go with Moely and the boy, and catch some fish for our supper tonight.''Yes, master,' I answered quietly, but inside I was excited.'Perhaps now I can escape, 'I said to myself.My master went back to his friends and we took the boat out to sea.For a time we fished quietly, and then I moved carefully behind Moely and knocked him into the water.'Swim!' I cried. 'Swim to the shore!'My master liked to shoot sea birds and so there were guns on the boat.Quickly, I took one of these guns.Moely was swimming after the boat and I shouted to him: 'Go back to the shore! You can swim there - it's not too far. I won't hurt you, but if you come near the boat, I'll shoot you through the head!'So Moely turned, and swam back to the shore as quickly as he could.Then I said to the boy, ' Xury, if you help me, I'll be a good friend to you. If you don't help me, I'll push you into the sea too.'But Xury was happy to help me.'I'll go all over the world with you,' he cried.I wanted to sail to the Canary Islands, but I was afraid to go too far from the shore.It was only a small boat.And so we sailed on south for some days.We had very little water, and it was dangerous country here, with many wild animals.We were afraid, but we often had to go on shore to get more water.Once I used a gun to shoot a wild animal.I don't know what animal it was, but it made a good meal.For about ten or twelve days we sailed on south, down the coast of Africa.Perhaps white people never visited this coast.We did not speak their language, of course, so we used our hands and faces to show that we were hungry.They came with food for us, but then they moved away quickly.We carried the food to our boat, and they watched us.I tried to thank them, but I had nothing to give them.Just then two big wild cats came down to the shore from the mountains.I think they were leopards.The people were afraid of these wild cats, and the women cried out.Quickly, I took a gun, and shot one of the animals.The second wild cat ran back up into the mountains.Guns were new to these African people, and they were afraid of the loud noise and the smoke.But they were happy about the dead wild cat.I gave them the meat of the dead animal, and they gave us more food and water.We now had a lot of food and water, and we sailed on.Eleven days later, we came near the Cape Verde Islands.We could see them, but we couldn't get near because there was no wind.We waited.Suddenly Xury called to me, 'Look, a ship!'He was right!We called and shouted and sailed our little boat as fast as we could.But the ship did not see us.Then I remembered the guns which made a lot of smoke.A few minutes later the ship saw us and turned.When we were on the ship, the Portuguese captain listened to my story.He was going to Brazil and agreed to help me, but he wanted nothing for his help.'No, 'he said, when I tried to pay him.'Perhaps, one day, someone will help me when I need it.'But he gave me money for my boat, and for Xury, too.At first, I did not want to sell Xury as a slave, after all our dangerous adventures together.But Xury was happy to go to the captain, and the captain was a good man.'In ten years' time, 'he said, 'Xury can go free.'When we arrived in Brazil three weeks later, I said goodbye to the captain and Xury, left the ship, and went to begin a new life.

In this episode, Ken and Gisele share their experience exloring the Republic of Cabo Verde, volcanic islands. Their last stop on the Viking Jupiter before landing in Africa was Sao Vicente, one of the ten volcanic islands. Their trip was diverted from Senegal because there was some 'unrest'. There was a lot of poverty and these islands are somewhat new to tourists visiting so there was some panhandling, but it was beautiful and well worth a short visit.  They are recording on the third of four days at sea traversing the Atlantic en route to Africa. land in Casa Blanca Morocco on their final day where they will visit markets and do some site seeing. After that is a visit to Spain! Viking Jupiter  Tip of the day: We prefer carrying backpacks for essentials like airpods, ipads, books, medicines, toothpaste, underwear, etc. Also, if you are in a heavily packed area and people are coughing and sneezing, it might make sense to keep a mask in your pocket to use in these scenarios.  Ken and Gisele Fowle retired several years ago to pursue their lifelong love of travel. Their sojourns have taken them through hundreds of countries and have ranged from sublime cruises in the warm waters of the Caribbean to rugged treks up Mt. Everest and across the Galapagos. Join Ken and Gisele as they share their varied experiences and the tips and tricks that will help you create adventures tailored to your own passions and lifestyle. Also, if you need a great travel agent, we recommend Janine! Janine Nangle BellaLuna Vacations bellalunavacations@gmail.com 407-906-7193

Partimos desde las islas de Cabo Verde, arribando a los puertos del África occidental, donde nos encontramos nuevas músicas en Guinea Bissau, Guinea Conakry y Ghana. Saltamos del Atlántico al Índico para recalar en las islas Comoras, escuchando músicas que nos llegan tanto desde la dependencia francesa de Mayotte como del resto del archipiélago. Llegamos a mar Egeo, escuchando músicas populares de la isla de Leros, en el Dodecaneso griego, para acabar tierra adentro con sones del occidente ruso. We depart from the Cape Verde Islands, arriving at the ports of West Africa, where we find new music in Guinea Bissau, Guinea Conakry and Ghana. We jump from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean to reach the Comoros islands, listening to music coming from the French dependency of Mayotte as well as from the rest of the archipelago. Then we reach the Aegean Sea, listening to popular music from the island of Leros, in the Greek Dodecanese, to end up inland with tunes from western Russia.

Black Christianity in America has long been studied as a blend of indigenous African and Protestant elements. Jeroen Dewulf redirects the conversation by focusing on the enduring legacy of seventeenth-century Afro-Atlantic Catholics in the broader history of African American Christianity. With homelands in parts of Africa with historically strong Portuguese influence, such as the Cape Verde Islands, São Tomé, and Kongo, these Africans embraced variants of early modern Portuguese Catholicism that they would take with them to the Americas as part of the forced migration that was the transatlantic slave trade. Their impact upon the development of Black religious, social, and political activity in North America would be felt from the southern states as far north as what would become New York. Dewulf's analysis focuses on the historical documentation of Afro-Atlantic Catholic rituals, devotions, and social structures. Of particular importance are brotherhood practices, which were critical in the dissemination of Afro-Atlantic Catholic culture among Black communities, a culture that was pre-Tridentine in nature and wary of external influences. These fraternal Black mutual-aid and burial society structures were critically important to the development and resilience of Black Christianity in America through periods of changing social conditions. Afro-Atlantic Catholics: America's First Black Christians (U Notre Dame Press, 2022) shows how a sizable minority of enslaved Africans actively transformed the American Christian landscape and would lay a distinctly Afro-Catholic foundation for African American religious traditions today. This book will appeal to scholars in the history of Christianity, African American and African diaspora studies, and Iberian studies. Allison Isidore is a Religious Studies Ph.D. student at the University of Iowa and is the Assistant Director for the American Catholic Historical Association. Her research interest is focused on the twentieth-century American Civil Rights Movement and the Catholic Church's response to racism and the participation of Catholic clergy, nuns, and laypeople in marches, sit-ins, and kneel-ins during the 1950s and 1960s.

Jeroen Dewulf redirects the conversation by focusing on the enduring legacy of seventeenth-century Afro-Atlantic Catholics in the broader history of African American Christianity. With homelands in parts of Africa with historically strong Portuguese influence, such as the Cape Verde Islands, São Tomé, and Kongo, these Africans embraced variants of early modern Portuguese Catholicism that they would take with them to the Americas as part of the forced migration that was the transatlantic slave trade. Their impact upon the development of Black religious, social, and political activity in North America would be felt from the southern states as far north as what would become New York. Dewulf's analysis focuses on the historical documentation of Afro-Atlantic Catholic rituals, devotions, and social structures. Of particular importance are brotherhood practices, which were critical in the dissemination of Afro-Atlantic Catholic culture among Black communities, a culture that was pre-Tridentine in nature and wary of external influences. These fraternal Black mutual-aid and burial society structures were critically important to the development and resilience of Black Christianity in America through periods of changing social conditions. Afro-Atlantic Catholics: America's First Black Christians (U Notre Dame Press, 2022) shows how a sizable minority of enslaved Africans actively transformed the American Christian landscape and would lay a distinctly Afro-Catholic foundation for African American religious traditions today. This book will appeal to scholars in the history of Christianity, African American and African diaspora studies, and Iberian studies. Allison Isidore is a Religious Studies Ph.D. student at the University of Iowa and is the Assistant Director for the American Catholic Historical Association. Her research interest is focused on the twentieth-century American Civil Rights Movement and the Catholic Church's response to racism and the participation of Catholic clergy, nuns, and laypeople in marches, sit-ins, and kneel-ins during the 1950s and 1960s.

This is episode 41 and we're dealing with two main things – firstly the shift in power amongst the Xhosa at the end of the 18th Century, then the arrival of the English in South Africa. Remember we've been focusing on the Zuurveld as the trekboers and the amaXhosa both expanded their interest in the region. The fate of these contending parties would remain undecided for twenty years and for the amXhosa, it was their fractured politics that weakened them precisely at the moment their greatest threat appeared. The indecisive Second Frontier War had left Ndlambe the most powerful Xhosa chief in the west but he couldn't seize ultimate control of the Zuurveld – the trekboers were returning to their farms razed during the war. Although they did not return in the same numbers initially, the tension was set to rise once more. In 1795 Ngqika turned 17 and he immediately took action against his uncle Ndlambe who as we know had been ruling on his behalf until he came of age. Ngqika was not to be trifled with although young. He was ambitious and pretty ruthless as you're going to hear. As the tension rose amongst the amaXhosa groups, it wasn't long before a mini civil war broke out. Upheavals far away in the world were going to have a major impact on this sleepy little southern African backwater shortly. The first attempts by the British at seizing the Cape failed miserably back in 1781 as we've heard with the brilliant but obese French commander Bailli de Suffren defeating the English fleet at the Cape Verde Islands. The British had no real interest in the Cape as such during this phase, they wanted the ports and the refreshment stations. There was no idea of colonizing this somewhat dangerous part of the world. The major strategic aim was to hold the Cape to prevent it from being seized by the French to use as a naval base as part of the crucial logistics route to and from India and China.

Amilcar Cabral was one of the most significant African nationalists of his generation. Born in the Cape Verde Islands, Cabral led the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde (PAIGC) in its fight against Portuguese rule. In addition to helping found the party and then lead it, he also became a leading theoretician of revolutionary struggle and Marxism. Cabral shaped the larger independence struggle until his assassination in 1973, and though he did not live to see the independence of Cape Verde or Guinea Bissau, he remains an important source of inspiration for many revolutionaries. Despite this, biographies and studies of Cabral have been relatively sparse. What English-language literature does exist on Cabral is somewhat dated. Dr. António Tomás' Amílcar Cabral: The Life of a Reluctant Nationalist (Oxford UP, 2020) provides a fresh look at Cabral. Through archival research and a reexamination of Cabral's own writings, Tomás sketches the development of Cabral's nationalism and ideology from his early childhood and his studies in Portugal. Not only does this biography make clear the importance of Cabral's life, but it sheds valuable light on the processes of decolonization and the complexities embedded within the liberation movements. Zeb Larson is a recent graduate of The Ohio State University with a PhD in History. His research deals with the anti-apartheid movement in the United States.

On August 29, 1960, the storm that would become Hurricane Donna formed near the Cape Verde Islands off the African coast. It would go on to cause 150 deaths from Puerto Rico to New England over the next two weeks. On August 31, Donna attained hurricane status and headed west toward the Caribbean. It was a Category 4 hurricane by the time it reached the Leeward Islands on September 4. Donna left a path of destruction across on Puerto Rico and a portion of the Bahamas before turning northeast toward Cuba and the Florida Keys. Donna punished Cuba, one hundred and twenty people lost their lives in there when evacuation plans were not carried out properly. On September 9, winds with speeds of up to 200 miles per hour battered the Florida Keys before Donna skipped back to the Atlantic Ocean. The storm then rode the Florida coastline, causing 13 deaths in Fort Myers and Daytona Beach. The state's grapefruit and orange crops also took devastating blows and almost half of the largest mangrove tree forest in the United States was lost. It was the strongest storm to hit Florida until Andrew in 1992. On September 12, Donna battered the Outer Banks on North Carolina and was still a Category 3 hurricane. It stared to move quickly, it hit the New England coast on the night of September 12, 1960, still with hurricane force winds. Blue Hill Observatory, MA, had a wind gust of 145 mph. It is the only hurricane on record to produce hurricane force winds in every state that has a coast line on the Atlantic Ocean. Florida received the most damage from Hurricane Donna. Portions of southern and western Florida received over 10 in of rainfall from the hurricane. In the state of Florida, the storm destroyed 2,156 homes and trailers, severely damaged 3,903, and inflicted minor impact on 30,524 others. Winds as strong as 100 mph were observed along the coast of New Jersey. Damage from the storm was most severe in Atlantic, Cape May, Monmouth and Ocean counties, where numerous boats, docks, boardwalks, and cottages were damaged or destroyed. A resort area in Cliffwood beach, New Jersey saw its boardwalk and tourist attractions destroyed by the hurricane, and the area has never recovered to this day, 61 years later. Losses to agriculture were significant, with damage to apple and peach trees "considerable", the former of which lost about one-third of its crops. Wind damage to corn and sorghum resulted in a delay in their harvest. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Christopher Columbus' third voyage after leaving the Cape Verde Islands, his 4 ships drifted WSW in the equatorial current. A ship's account from July 22, 1498 states that "The wind stopped so suddenly the heat was so excessive and immoderate that there was no one who dared to go below after the casks of wine and water which burst, snapping the hoops of the pes; the wheat burned like fire; the bacon and salted meat roasted and putrefied." This calm area known to sailors around the world as the doldrums, is a belt around the Earth extending approximately five degrees north and south of the equator. Here, the prevailing trade winds of the northern hemisphere blow to the southwest and collide with the southern hemisphere's driving northeast trade winds. Due to intense solar heating near the equator, the warm, moist air is forced up into the atmosphere like a hot air balloon. The rising air mass finally subsides in what is known as the horse latitudes, where the air moves downward toward Earth's surface and the is often little surface wind in this region. That is why sailors well know that the area can becalm sailing ships for weeks. Columbus was caught in the doldrums or horse latitudes. The term horse latitudes came later, after Columbus, when ships sailing to the western hemisphere were sometimes stranded for weeks and as they baked, sailors reportedly pushed the horses they were transporting overboard to keep from running out of scarce water. Occasionally the ships were stranded and for longer periods and became ghost ships as entire crews perished, from heat and lack of food and water. Learn more about your ad choices.

All indications are that we could see a tropical depression form way out in the deep tropical Atlantic somewhere south of the Cape Verde Islands over the next few days. This would be very early in the season for this to be happening and a sign that we are, in fact, in for a busy season ahead. Meanwhile, another tropical wave will bring showers and thunderstorms to portions of the Lesser Antilles as it moves west and across that region over the next couple of days. And finally, we should see a tropical depression form in the east Pacific off the coast of Mexico that may go on to become the season's first hurricane. I will cover all of these topics of interest and more in my Hurricane Outlook and Discussion video on YouTube later this afternoon.

That is, until The Johnson Girls and other pioneering female singers decided to break through the "especially bearded, especially beer-bellied" resistance.

Discipleship has become a buzz word in the church over the last few years because in many ways it has been overlooked, or at the very least not been done so well by the greater church. As church leaders we've come to realize that we need to do a better job on investing in the lives of people. The goal is not just more information or data, but that we can help people truly become who God wants them to be.Eli Semedo is on staff at the Baptist Missionary Association office of Missions, has served as a missionary in his home country, Cape Verde Islands, as well as Thailand. Eli loves to disciple men because a few mentors were willing to pour into his life. 2 Tim. 2:2"and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also."www.healthychurchpodcast.cominfo@healthychurchpodcast.comFind us on FaceBook - Healthy Church Podcast.

On Christopher Columbus' third voyage, after leaving the Cape Verde Islands, his 4 ships drifted WSW in the equatorial current. A ship’s account from July 22, 1498 states that "The wind stopped so suddenly the heat was so excessive and immoderate that there was no one who dared to go below after the casks of wine and water which burst, snapping the hoops of the pipes; the wheat burned like fire; the bacon and salted meat roasted and putrefied." This calm area known to sailors around the world as the doldrums, is a belt around the Earth extending approximately five degrees north and south of the equator. Here, the prevailing trade winds of the northern hemisphere blow to the southwest and collide with the southern hemisphere’s driving northeast trade winds. Due to intense solar heating near the equator, the warm, moist air is forced up into the atmosphere like a hot air balloon. The rising air mass finally subsides in what is known as the horse latitudes, where the air moves downward toward Earth’s surface. Because the air circulates in an upward direction, there is often little surface wind in this region. That is why sailors well know that the area can becalm sailing ships for weeks. Columbus was caught in the doldrums or horse latitudes. The term horse latitudes came later, after Columbus when ships sailing to the western hemisphere were sometime stranded for weeks and as they baked, sailors reportedly pushed the horses they were transporting overboard to keep from running out of scarce water. Occasionally the ships were stranded and for longer periods and became ghost ships as entire crews perished, from heat and lack of food and water. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week's poem is by Corsino Fortes from Cape Verde. The poem is read first in English translation by Sean O'Brien and then in Portuguese by Corsino Fortes. Corsino Fortes's first book Pão & Fonema [Bread & Phoneme] which appeared in 1974 made an immediate impact. 1974 was a momentous year for Portugal and its African colonies as it was the year in which Portugal's dictator Salazar was overthrown, an act which began the process that led to the decolonisation of the Cape Verde Islands in 1975. You can buy a copy of our Corsino Fortes Chapbook from the PTC website:https://www.poetrytranslation.org/shop/corsino-fortes-chapbook This is part of our new rebranded weekly release: the Dual Poetry Podcast, one poem in two languages from the Poetry Translation Centre. As ever we will be releasing a translated poem each week. Please take a moment to rate and review this podcast on iTunes or wherever you download.

In this episode of PoPolitickin, we politick with hip hop artist D. Ardee. Danny Ramalho (born 1993) known professionally as D. Ardee is an American hip-hop recording artist, record producer, and multi-instrumentalist. As the son of a musician, D. Ardee began making music at a young age and performed in various musical venues in his hometown throughout his childhood. As an instrumentalist, he handles the majority of the production in his own projects. He recently released his debut album Fast Travels Alone on March 1, 2017 with guest productions by VZ Beatz, CashMoneyAP, and Lasik Beats. Danny Ramalho was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut by a family of musicians. Both his parents hail from the Cape Verde Islands. His father was a guitarist influencing Ramalho’s interest in music by allowing him to take piano lessons at the age of 6. Through his early years, Ramalho spent much of his time playing Cape Verdean music; however, his main interests involved hip-hop. He began rapping and making beats as a hobby at the age of 9. It wasn’t until the age of 15 when his father purchased a Yamaha MO6 keyboard that he began to take a career in hip-hop seriously. This was when he met frequent collaborator and co-producer VZ Beatz also known as DJ Invizible, who was close friend to DJ JohnGee, owner of Gee Studio (Ansonia, CT). During this time, he saw a career as a producer his main focus, but began writing to his own beats when he could not find anyone else to do so. With Fast Travels Alone, D. Ardee provides his audience with an eclectic style, exploring the depths and many subgenres of Hip-Hop and Rap. Through his music, he experiments with numerous cadences and melodic flows with sounds originating from across the country and even overseas. As a writer, D. Ardee uses complex rhyme schemes and many literary techniques to not only give people something to dance to but to bring light to the circumstances that society forces us to experience. Growing up with Cape Verdean parents, this artist was exposed to countless styles of music from across the globe at a very young age, and utilizes this with the combination of Urban music to unify all groups of people throughout the world.

Black Whalers,  with genealogist Earl Depass! Whaling: Opportunities for African Americans  Four Whalers of African Descent The whaling industry, created several black abolitionists, entrepreneurs & philanthropists! Whaling Centered until the 1870s in New Bedford, employed a large number of African Americans. This was in part due to the Quaker tradition of tolerance in the New Bedford area, but more importantly, to the large demand for manpower in an expanding industry requiring unusually large crews. Some black seamen in the business were Americans, from the Northeast and the South, some were from the West Indies, and a significant group was from the Cape Verde Islands off the African coast. Whatever their origin, black seamen found acceptance as hard workers and skilled mariners in an industry that was physically demanding, dirty, and often financially unrewarding. When the center of the industry moved to San Francisco in the 1870s, African Americans continued to form a large percentage of the crews. The whaling business was no doubt the largest employer of African Americans seamen on the West Coast until it ended shortly before World War I.
