The winter before Captain Scott's ill-fated attempt on the South Pole, his youngest team member Apsley Cherry-Garrard (known as “Cherry”) set off across the ice in the middle of the polar night. Henrietta Hammant talks to Alok Jha about this astonishing journey and Cherry's subsequent memoir, which remains one of the most gripping works of travel and adventure writing to this day. Henrietta is an anthropologist specialising in the Heroic Age of Antarctic exploration. Her research considers how this era of Antarctic history is displayed in museums. She has worked across the UK and Canada, most notably at the Polar Museum in Cambridge, and has recently submitted her PhD thesis at the University of Reading.To support this podcast and the work of the UK Antarctic Heritage Trust click here To buy a copy of Cherry: A Life of Apsley Cherry-Garrard click here Season 5 of A Voyage to Antarctica is made possible by support from HX Hurtigruten Expeditions.Sound Credits: Footsteps in Snow by SoundBiterSFX - https://freesound.org/s/730914/ - License: Creative Commons 0Walking in Soft Snow.wav by Percy Duke - https://freesound.org/s/420633/ - License: Attribution 3.0Silencyo_CC_Wind Mistral_Strong_pine trees.aif by silencyo - https://freesound.org/s/81797/ - License: Creative Commons 0Heavy hailstorm with thunder by Cinetony - https://freesound.org/s/620489/ - License: Creative Commons 0Short Hailstorm.wav by Benboncan - https://freesound.org/s/63802/ - License: Attribution 4.0 Hosted on Acast.

  No single issue of national policy is capturing more public attention six weeks into the new Trump administration, than the president's shocking — many would say shameful — embrace of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. And among the thousands of voices that have risen up in recent days to decry what they see as Trump's […]

The complete audiobook is available for purchase at Audible.com: https://n9.cl/1yc5t The Magic Mountain By Thomas Mann Translated by Helen Lowe-Porter A new immersive edition for Audible Read by Steve Gough Sound design by Stephen Earley Original Music by Laurene Hope and Stephen Williamson Thomas Mann's vivid, dramatic, and thought-provoking The Magic Mountain is firmly established as one of the classic epic novels of the twentieth century. Part surreal comedy, part grim tragedy, Mann's story depicts a decaying European society on the eve of the First World War. Set in an isolated sanatorium high up in the Swiss Alps, we follow the destinies of a variety of exotic, high-society characters drawn from every corner of Europe. All suffer from consumption, dream of a cure - yet are at the same time squeezing as much pleasure and distraction as they can out of a situation ever-shadowed by sickness, pain, and death. These varied destinies become a metaphor for civilisation's fatal fragility, on the brink of the world's very first global catastrophe. Today, as we face many other terrifying examples of human destructiveness, this novel has acquired yet more power and relevance. In its original published version, Mann's novel contained a number of extended passages, drawn by the author from contemporary scholarly texts. A reader might easily skip these more obscure sections; but for the audiobook listener this can be difficult. And so for this new and more accessible version, some of these passages have been shortened or omitted. The result is that Mann's epic story is now free to flow seamlessly in all its original drama, variety, wit and intensity. This modern audiobook version also features a specially-created immersive soundscape to draw the reader more intimately into Mann's vivid characters and their richly-imagined snow-clad world. The Magic Mountain is read by Steve Gough, whose sound-designed version Captain Scott's 1911 Last Expedition to the Antarctic won listeners' acclaim following its Audible release in 2021.

Ever wonder what it takes to lead a mission in the coldest, most unforgiving place on Earth?  In this episode of Antarctica Did That For Me, we (your hosts, Keri Nelson and Cassa Grant) dive into the tricky terrain of leading a team in Antarctica. From the hierarchical “my way or the highway” approach of Captain Scott… to the more democratic style of Sir Ernest Shackleton, we discuss the leadership secrets that can make or break an expedition in the world's harshest environment.  We also dig into what we learned about leadership from our co-workers during our time in Antarctica, an environment that can bring out the best and the worst in folks. Whether you're planning your own Antarctic adventure, or just trying to lead yourself out of bed in the morning, this episode has something for you.  We'll show you why being relatable, flexible, and authentic are the real superpowers of any leader, especially when the going gets tough.  Plus, we'll let you in on a little secret: the most important leader you'll ever have is YOU.

Sara Wheeler on why sleeping in Captain Scott's bunk in the Antarctic got her thinking about imposter syndrome.

Blackbeard's Treasure by Jenny Dolly词汇提示1.Highness 殿下原文Chapter X: Blackbeard's PeaceBlackbeard dropped the knife to the ground."Look!The knife. It moved by itself.""It's the curse of the treasure. It's a message from Blackbeard."No one could see the ghost except for Queen Alliana.She had her great-grandmother's eyes, and those eyes would always be able to see him.She walked towards him, away from the other men, who were preparing to take the pirates to the Queen Anne as prisoners."When you return to this island, you always bring unhappiness to a woman's heart.First, it was my great-grandmother's, and now it is mine. Have you thought of this in all those years while watching that treasure?""How could I forget? I can never die and be peaceful. I always remember what I didby looking at that treasure.""But you can do something good now. You can keep others from touching it and making the same mistake you did.""How?I can't keep people from coming onto my ship and taking my treasure.""You could if you wanted. If there was never any treasure, you would have lived happily with Queen Hanzani. Now, you still have the treasure and you are still unhappy.""But that is what I was told to do, watch the treasure to pay for my mistake.""Have you ever thought of what it is that will end this punishment and let you die in peace?"Blackbeard had no answer.He was quiet.Captain Scott came to say goodbye to Queen Alliana."Your Highness, we are ready to leave your island. I'm sorry for the trouble we brought with us, but I want to thank you for giving us what we need to sail again.""Remember Captain, you must find the ship you got the treasure from and put it back. It's the only way to keep peace on these islands.""We will try.""I think you will succeed. And remember the story I told you about that treasure.Taking what is not yours can never bring you or the ones you love any happiness."Captain Scott and the others rowed back to the Queen Anne, and soon it was sailing again through the Bermuda Triangle.Blackbeard was standing at the ship's side.He was looking across the wide, blue sea, thinking of everything Queen Allianas aidto him before he left Rum Island.He was always saying the same thing to himself: "If there was never any treasure, I would be happy now."Suddenly,Blackbeard's old empty ship appeared sailing along the shining blue sea.The man in the crow's nest shouted to the Captain, and he put his telescope to his eye."Stubbs,sail straight for that ship. We're going back on board."Blackbeard was walking nervously back and forth as the men put the treasure chest into a small row boat.He sat on top of it when they were ready to leave and row towards the empty ship.Captain Scott told the men to leave the chest where they found it.Before the sailors left, Captain Scott looked around the old pirate ship."And this is what you get for wanting all the riches of the world."Blackbeard was standing next to him listening.It was the last thing that was said on that ship.The Queen Anne began to sail away when one of the sailors shouted "Look!"Everyone turned to see Blackbeard's chest rising in the air over the sea.They thought it was moving by itself, but it was Blackbeard moving it.He threw the chest into the sea, ending the curse he had to live with.The sailors of the Queen Anne saw the shining gold on top of the water for one last moment,then it sank into the sea below.When the chest had disappeared into the water, Blackbeard's ship began to break apart and sank into the sea.The sailors' eyes all grew wide as they saw the ghost of a pirate in a long blue coat, with a black beard and a red scarf around his head, fly up into the clouds of the sky."Captain,what in the world was that?" "It was the ghost of Blackbeard.It seems that he has finally found his peace."The end of " Blackbeard's Treasure"by Jenny Dolly

Blackbeard's Treasure by Jenny Dolly词汇提示1.threatened 恐吓 2.torches 火炬原文Chapter IX: The Circle of fireThe clouds came again to cover the light of the moon.The sea was dark.None of the British sailors heard the pirates rowing their boats towards the Queen Anne.Captain Pike and his men climbed the ship's side and surprised the sailors on deck. They attacked the sailors with knives and Captain Pike went below deck.He kicked open the door to the treasure, but he saw that it was gone."Gone?!Where is it?"He ran back upstairs and threatened one of the sailors with a knife. "Where's that treasure you had down there? Talk or I'll kill you right here!""The Captain took it to the island, to trade with the natives. We needed something to fix our sails." The pirates left the Queen Anne and rowed towards Rum island.Captain Scott and his men were preparing to leave the Island. They had what they needed to fix the sails, and they were saying goodbye to Queen Alliana and her people.Torches were lit all around the village, and everyone was having one last cup of rum."Queen Alliana! I hope you and your people will live long lives!"Everyone raised their cup, but before they could drink, one of the natives came running through the village. "Pirate ship! Pirate ship!"The natives all dropped their cups and began running to their huts. The Queen looked at Captain Scott. "You see, the treasure is cursed. Wherever it goes, bad luck follows.""We have enough men here to fight these pirates. We won't let them destroy your island.We have a lot of experience fighting such men, but you can help by letting us use that treasure. Don't worry, you'll get it all back in the end."The natives kept their rum in wooden barrels near a small lake, next to the village.They took all the tops off the barrels to let the smell lead the pirates to where they were.When the pirates arrived, they saw Blackbeard's treasure chest in the middle of a large circle of sugar plant leaves.Queen Alliana was standing outside the circle, holding a torch.Captain Pike saw the chest first."There it is! Take it!""I wouldn't if I were you. You can't come here and take whatever you want.""Who are you? I'll do what I want!"Captain Pike and some of his men walked over the sugar leaves towards the treasure.The leaves had rum on them, and Queen Alliana set them on fire with her torch.The pirates and the treasure were in the middle of a circle of fire, unable to move."You see, Captain, your eye for treasure has kept you from seeing what you should see.It's always the same with such men."Captain Scott, his men and the natives came out from behind the trees and houses to fight the pirates.They put out the fire, and Captain Pike with his six pirates standing next to the treasure took out his sword."I'll fight to the death for this treasure. No one'll have it if I can't."He and Captain Scott fought while the others watched."You won't kill me Captain."Theirs words were locked together and they were looking at each other fiercely.Captain Pike reached for a knife in his belt."Watch out Captain! He's got a knife."Captain Scott saw Pike's eye grow wider, then he fell back.A knife with blood on it was in the air.No one could see that Blackbeard's ghost held it.

Blackbeard's Treasure by Jenny Dolly词汇提示1.furious 盛怒原文Chapter VII: Queen Hanzani's StoryCaptain Scott did not understand what Queen Alliana was saying.He asked Mr. Stewart:"What do you think the Queen meant by saying that the treasure was cursed?""Sir, these islanders have a lot of strange beliefs. I think we should listen to what they say and leave the island.""But we can't leave without new sails. Surely they can help us there.""What do you suggest we do?""I'm going to have a talk with her.You go and look after the men."The captain knocked on Queen Alliana's door,then opened it.The Queen was sitting in a large chair with her eyes closed.She opened them when the captain spoke."Excuse me, Queen Alliana, but I would like to talk to you."She did not say anything."I don't know why that treasure made you so angry, but our ship..."The Queen raised her hand to stop the captain from talking.She stood up and walked to one of the walls of the room.She took a picture from it.It was a picture of the same woman in Blackbeard's cabin.Without her headpiece on, Queen Alliana looked exactly like her.She gave the picture to Captain Scott to look at."It's a beautiful picture of you.""It's not me, Captain. It's my great-grand mother, Queen Hanzani. She was once the Queen of this island and of all the islands in the Bermuda Triangle. She was a great and kind woman, but she died sadly, at a young age, from a broken heart.""Was her husband killed by one of your enemies?""We had no enemies at that time,except for the pirates who came to steal from us. The man she loved and married left these islands and changed into an evil person.""Does this have something to do with you not wanting the treasure we showed you?""Captain, sit down and I will tell you a story."The captain sat in a chair opposite the Queen.Her large, soft eyes made him feel very relaxed.He sat back in his chair and listened to her story.He saw everything as if it was all happening right there in front of him."When my great-grandmother was sixteen,she and a boy her age promised to love each other forever.So they married and sometime later that boy left the island. He said he was going to sail around the world and bring back all of the things which would make their life together perfect and happy. While he was gone, pirates attacked the island. They killed Queen Hanzani's parents and stole everything they had. Many people died because they had no food. Queen Hanzani found a way to make rum from the sugar plants so they could trade it with others for food. She made the island strong and soon all of the people,from all of the islands in this triangle, began working together so that the pirates would never do such a thing again. ""Everyone knew the Queen did this so her true love would have a home to return to. Each morning, she would walk along the beach to see if his ship was coming, and each morning she returned a little bit more sad.""When he finally returned, it was awful. He returned as a pirate with a chest full of stolen treasure. He wanted to give it to Queen Hanzani and take her away from the island to live with other rich kings and queens. She was furious."'Pirates killed my parents, and now you want me to touch stolen treasure?''But I did this for you, to make you happy.''Throw it into the ocean and live as we do and I will be happy.''Throw it into the ocean? After all the years I spent getting his? I was almost killed many times.'"There was a terrible storm; we call it the storm with the large face. The clouds were so large that they looked like the face of a man blowing on to the sea. The pirate ship was destroyed and now a ghost ship travels these waters with Blackbeard's ghost on it, watching the treasure he thought more important than love. My great-grandmother died in her sleep that same night. I wear this necklace to remember her. The pirate's ghost and his treasure are there to remind him, and anyone else who tries to take what is not theirs, that they will never be happy. You have that treasure Captain and you must take it from this island and put it back on that empty ship. Otherwise, you will never leave the Bermuda Triangle alive."

Clive Oppenheimer is a volcanologist, filmmaker and Professor of Volcanology at the University of Cambridge. His research has taken him on expeditions across the world, from Antarctica, where he discovered the camp of Captain Scott's attempt to reach the South Pole, to Ethiopia where he was held at gunpoint by rebels. Clive was born in London, and fell in love with rocks and the stories they tell on visits to what is now the Natural History Museum. His mother survived the Blitz in London and his father escaped persecution by the Nazis in Germany in the 1930s. On a gap year trip to Indonesia, Clive saw his first volcanoes and realised both their natural power and their significance in human lives. He studied at the University of Cambridge, and completed a PhD at the Open University.He has taken part in and led expeditions to volcanoes all over the world, including Indonesia, Italy and Ethiopia. He is one of few Westerners to have worked in North Korea, where he was invited by the government to study volcanic activity at the culturally significant Mount Baekdu. He has also made three documentaries with filmmaker Werner Herzog about volcanoes and their scientific, cultural and spiritual significance.

Blackbeard's Treasure by Jenny Dolly词汇提示1.bandage 绷带2.anchored 抛锚3.vanilla 香草味4.rum 朗姆酒5.barrels 桶原文Chapter VI: Rum IslandThe Queen Anne was badly damaged and many of its men were hurt.The captain was in his bed, with a white bandage on his head.His first mate, Mr.Stewart, came to see him."Captain, the men have found the door to the treasure broken open. It seems Pike and his men took the Queen's gold but left behind the treasure we found on that ship.""How is the ship and the men?""Many men are hurt, sir. Our sails are badly damaged. We're now sailing to an island we've seen about two miles away.""Mr. Stewart, have someone watch that treasure. It's all we have left."The Queen Anne moved very slowly with all of its sails pulled down.The men were sitting or standing quietly along the deck as the ship anchored, a half mile from the beach.They were tired and hurt from the fight with the pirates.The sun was shining and the island looked beautiful, but the men were not interested.The captain came up on deck and began ordering the men."Lower the boats! I'm going to the island to see if we can get something to fix the sails. I want to take that treasure with us. We don't know what we'll have to give them."The island had a long beach of white sand with tall, green coconut trees on it.They pulled their boats up onto the sand.As they were deciding which way to go, they saw a native boy jump from a tree and run away.The captain spoke first."Let's follow him. He may lead us to his people."The boy led the men through the green hills of the island.He stayed far ahead of them but stopped whenever he wanted them to see him and follow.There were tall green plants on the hills, and the air smelled of vanilla."What's that smell? It smells like rum.""It is, and these are the sugar plants they use to make it. They break the plants apart and mix the rum in large barrels. It smells as if they're making sweets.""It'll be nice if we get to taste it."The men laughed as they walked on.When they came to the top of a hill looking down onto a village, they saw natives working near small houses made from trees and leaves.The small boy they were following ran into the village before them and everyone began looking up at Captain Scott and his men.They stopped what they were doing and waited for the sailors.A tall, dark and very beautiful woman in a white headdress was standing in front of the natives, waiting for Captain Scott.She had large dark, eyes and she wore a gold necklace with a green stone, just like the one in the picture on Blackbeard's ship.Her name was Queen Alliana, and she was the Queen of Rum Island.The sailors put Blackbeard's treasure down behind Captain Scott when he went to meet the Queen."I am Captain Scott of the Queen Anne from England. We've come here to trade our gold for anything you may have to offer, but we also have a problem. Our ship is badly damaged. We need to fix our sails.""Welcome Captain. I am Queen Alliana and this is Rum Island. Come and sit with us and show us what you have brought."The sailors sat in a circle around the treasure chest.Captain Scott sat next to Queen Alliana and all the men were offered a cup of the island's rum.When Captain Scott opened the chest and showed the Queen the shining treasure of jewels and gold, her eyes widened and she stood up."Where did you get that?""It's not really ours. It's something we've found on an empty ship at sea. Our gold...""Take it away! We do not want it here! It is cursed! The man who owns it must have it back. You must take it back to where you found it."The Queen waved her hand. All of the natives left and went inside their houses, leaving Captain Scott and his men alone.

Blackbeard's Treasure by Jenny Dolly词汇提示1.splash 水花2.fierce 激烈原文Chapter V: The Wrong ChestThe Queen Anne sailed for a few more days,but it couldn't find the Bermuda Triangle.The men were getting angry.Captain Scott heard more and more talk about the treasure, so he decided to call the men and speak to them."I know that a lot of you want to see these islands. I want you to know that you will be handsomely paid for this long voyage. Wait a little longer and you will be rewarded."Blackbeard's ghost was walking behind the men as the captain talked.Smith, the man who stole some of Blackbeard's treasure, was standing in the front where Captain Scott could see him.He still had the jewels in his pocket,and Blackbeard knew this.Because no one could see him, he put his hand in Smith's pocket and threw the jewels on the deck in front of Smith.The others thought Smith dropped something,but when they saw the beautiful diamonds and the gold necklace, they looked at Smith to see what he would say."Captain, I don't know how they got there. It was him that put them there."He pointed at a man.He was the man who had helped him carry the chest aboard."You're a liar!"They began to fight, and the other men joined in.Some of them wanted to stop the fight,but others tried to take the jewels from the deck.The captain quickly took the jewels before anyone else could.The men didn't stop fighting with each other until they heard the man in the crow's nest shout 'Ship!'They looked and saw the black flag above the sails of a ship coming towards them, but they didn't know it was Captain Pike.Captain Scott looked through his telescope,then called to the men: "Enemy ship approaching! Open the cannons! Prepare to fight!"The men were running to different parts of the ship when Captain Pike's ship fired a cannon.Aloud 'boom!' was heard, but the cannon ball missed and landed in the water, making a big splash next to the Queen Anne.Another cannon was fired.This one hit one of the Queen Anne's sails.The Queen Anne fired back, and the battle began.It was a fierce battle.The sails on both ships had holes in them and were on fire and there was black smoke in the air.When the ships were close enough, the pirates used ropes to jump onto the Queen Anne.All the men were fighting with swords, so there was no one to watch the treasure.Captain Pike jumped on board the Queen Anne.He went below with two of his men where Blackbeard's treasure was.Captain Scott saw them below and followed with his sword in his hand.Captain Pike turned to fight him."I know you've got that treasure and I'm not leaving without it.""You will die before you touch apiece of what's behind that door!"Blackbeard was watching all of this.He followed Captain Pike downstairs, and when he had the chance, he hit him over the head with a piece of wood.Captain Pike was surprised.He didn't know what happened."Quick, open that door. Now!"Pike's men broke the door open and Captain Pike opened both chests.He left the Queen's gold pieces and put his hands on the shining jewels of Blackbeard's treasure."Look at these beauties! I've never seen such colors. Blue diamonds, pearls, red rubies!"Blackbeard closed the top down on Captain Pike's hands and he screamed in pain."Good God! Open it! Open it!"His men helped open the chest, but both Pike's hands were badly hurt."Take that one with us. We'll comeback for the other later."Captain Pike was looking at his injured hands.His men were very surprised at what happened.So, they picked up the wrong chest.It was the chest with the Queen's gold init.Blackbeard was smiling at Captain Pike, knowing that no one would get his gold.He didn't know himself that they were leaving his treasure behind.So, he sat on the chest that the men took back to the pirate ship.

Are you trying to kill each other before we find the gold?""This one was trying to cheat us at cards. We can't have that, can we?""That we can't my friend, but we're waiting for a treasure much bigger than the one you play cards for. Put him in the stocks for a day and let him think about things there."The stocks were two pieces of wood with three round holes in them.The men placed the prisoner's head and hands in the holes.Then,they lowered the top and they locked him inside.He had to stand up the whole time.Captain Pike was standing next to his First Mate, Santiago, at the wheel of the ship.Santiago asked him about the danger of finding Blackbeard's Treasure."They say no one can take Blackbeard's treasure. Why do you think you can?""I think that Blackbeard and I are the same kind of pirate. He wanted everything,and he knew how to get it. When I see that treasure, when I put my hands on it,there's nothing that can make me lose it."There was a pirate in a small seat above the sails, looking at the ocean through a telescope.This was called the crow's nest, and he was the first to see Blackbeard's ship sailing ahead of them.He whistled to the men below:"Ship,straight ahead!"Captain Pike put a telescope up to his eye.He saw Blackbeard's empty ship, then yelled to the man who was steering."Go straight for it! This is what we're looking for!"Captain Pike and some of his men went aboard the empty ship, but they couldn't find any treasure.Santiago thought they made a mistake."Maybe this isn't Blackbeard's ship. It could be a ship lost at sea.""There's only one way to find out."Captain Pike went below to Blackbeard's cabin and Santiago followed him.It was dark and the captain had to light a candle.He walked with the candle to one of the cabin walls where there was a round, old picture of a woman.She was a beautiful dark woman with large, dark round eyes.Her black hair was tied at the back of her head, and she had a gold necklace with around, green stone around her neck."Who is it Captain?""It's a woman who was once the Queen of one of these islands. They say Blackbeard was in love with her. They say she was the reason for his death. He came here to marry her and give her all of the jewels he had. No one ever saw him again, and no one's ever found the treasure. This must be his ship."They went upstairs and Captain Pike told his men to begin taking up the boards on deck to see if the treasure was hidden and where.While the men were doing this, Pike saw a clear rectangular spot left by the chest after Captain Scott took it.The whole deck was grey and dirty except for this one spot where the chest was for so many years."Stop!"The men stopped searching and looked at Captain Pike.He raised his hand in the air and looked at the clean spot on the deck."Someone has been here before Us!"

One of them yelled to the boats after he saw the chest."What have you brought us there, Captain?"Another man answered: "It's gold and rubies and diamonds!"The captain didn't want the men to get too excited, because he didn't know if he should keep the treasure."That's enough. I want that treasure taken below with our own gold until I decide what we'll do with it."Two men carried the chest below with Blackbeard still on top of it.A man named Stubbs spoke to the captain about the treasure."Will we give a little of it to each of the men for the long journey?""I don't know. I've got a strange feeling about that treasure, but I'm not sure why. I think it's better to leave it alone for a while.""But Captain, we've been sailing for seventeen days and we still haven't seen an island. The men need some encouragement.""The men shall carry out their duties and be happy with that. They will get exactly what I promised them."The two men who carried Blackbeard and his treasure below put the chest down to wait for the captain.One of the men, Smith, sat on the chest to tie his shoe.The other was standing, smoking a pipe.Blackbeard stood and watched the men with a smile on his face.He knew they couldn't see him, so he knocked Smith's hat off his head.Smith thought the other man did it."What do you think you're doing?""What are you talking about?""You knocked my hat off.""You're crazy. I was standing here smoking my pipe."The men were about to fight when Captain Scott walked down the stairs."What's going on down here?""Nothing,Captain."The Captain opened the lock on the door."Put it inside next to the Queen's gold."The Queen's gold was in a chest the same size as Blackbeard's treasure, but it looked new.The wood was clean and the lock on it was gold.Blackbeard's chest was old and grey.Blackbeard watched the men put the chest down.Smith stayed behind when the other man left.He opened Blackbeard's chest, took out some of the treasure and put it in his trouser pocket."Smith!What are you doing in there?""Coming Captain!"Blackbeard followed Smith out as the captain locked the door.

It is the seventeenth day of our voyage and still no island in sight. The men are beginning to complain, and I am afraid they are going to create problems.A knock at the door stopped the captain from writing."Enter.""Captain,a strange ship is sailing towards us. It has no flag so we don't know where it comes from. They need you on the bridge.""I'll be up in a moment."The crewman closed the door and the captain wrote one more sentence in thelog-book.Our luck may have just changed.The strange ship was half a mile from the Queen Anne.It looked old and abandoned.The captain brought his telescope up to his eye."Sail close to it and we'll see if anyone is on board."One of the crewmen flashed alight three times quickly, waited one second, then flashed it two more times.There was no answer."Open the cannons and sail next to it."The strange ship moved slowly through the water; there seemed to be no one onboard.The sails had holes in them, and there was broken wood all over its deck.The captain called over to it."I am Captain Scott, serving Her Majesty the Queen. If anyone is aboard, state your name and who you serve."There was no answer."Lower the boats! We're going aboard!"Captain Scott and twelve of his men rowed two small boats from the Queen Anne to the empty ship.A rope ladder was hanging down from the ship's side.The captain and his men used it to climb on board.There was no one on board.The captain and his men looked around the ship, but they found nothing.There was no one at the wheel, but the ship somehow continued sailing."I've never seen anything like it, Captain.""Neither have I, and I don't like it. Let's follow it and see where it goes."They were ready to leave, when one of the men saw a chest, at the side of the ship, under some old fishing nets.They took off the nets and broke the old, black lock.Inside,they saw beautiful shining diamonds, pearls and gold.The men were stunned into silence.The captain looked at one of the gold coins.It had the picture of King Edward VI on it."This coin is over one hundred years old. It is not even in use anymore.""What should we do with it, Captain?""I don't see why we should leave it here when there is no one on board. Close it and we'll take it with us."When all the men were looking at the treasure, something like a black shadow came to the top of the stairs going down to the cabins below.It stayed back in the darkness of the stairs until the men moved the chest to their boats.No one could see it, but the shadow was really a ghost that looked like a pirate.He wore a long blue coat and had a shining silver sword at his side.He had a red scarf around his head and a long thick black beard.He followed the men to their boat and sat on top of the chest.No one could see him, but it was Blackbeard, and the treasure was his to watch.

We're taking a brief side-quest from our regular coverage of Star Trek Continues, to look at an episode of Star Trek New Voyages, because it sets up the back-story of Kirk and Carol Marcus's relationship, and I just like to throw it in there when I'm doing a re-watch of Star Trek Continues. ----more---- Transcript Welcome to Nerd Heaven. I'm Adam David Collings, the author of Jewel of The Stars And I am a nerd.   This is episode 105 of the podcast.   Today, we're talking about an episode of a different fan series - Star Trek New Voyages. “The Holiest Thing”   Why? I just like to throw this one in when I do a re-watch of Star Trek Continues, because it does a similar thing to Continues, that is, to help develop the story filling in the gaps between TOS and the Star Trek movies. This one introduces Kirk to a much younger Carol Marcus, for the very first time. So I figured, let's have a look at this one. Next time, we'll be back with part 1 of the finale of Star Trek Continues.   The description on IMDB reads Captain Kirk and the Enterprise investigate the devastation of Lappa III, apparently by the terraforming efforts of Dr. Carol Marcus.   This episode was written by Rick Chambers It was directed by Daren Dochterman   And it first aired on the 15th of January 2016   We start this episode in a very unexpected place. A shuttle flies past the camera. But it's not a TOS shuttle. It's an Enterprise D shuttle. We cut to the inside where we see a woman in TNG era uniform and an older Scotty. So, clearly this is set some time after the TNG episode “Relics” where a retired Scotty finds himself in the 24th century. I have to say, they cast a pretty decent look-alike for older scotty. A guy named Carl Sheldon. He hasn't done a lot of acting.   Watching this scene, I'm again reminded just how professional the acting and writing are in Star Trek Continues. Now, don't get me wrong. I love Star Trek New Voyages. They did some amazing stuff long before Star Trek Continues was a thing. But the acting, and the dialog here just isn't at the same standard as Continues.   But I want to give this show credit for set design and visual effects. What we see in this episode is great. And not all the acting feels as amateur as this first scene.   The ensign has been doing some training with Captain Scott. They're approaching the Lappa system. She asks Scotty if he's ever been there. He recalls a time in his past, when the world was still very much on the frontier. It was un-inhabited back then. At least, that's what they thought.   We then cut to the TOS present day. A scientist, who we'll shortly learn is Dr. Carol Marcus, is working to terraform this planet. Scotty is there, and in this show, he has a moustache. Another little nod to closing the gap between TOS and TMP.   Marcus says “we have Enterprise and her chief Engineer watching over our shoulder.” This is something that bugs me. That she says “Enterprise” rather than “The Enterprise.” Voyager was the first Star Trek show to drop the word “The” when referring to the ship. And I was okay with that because “The Voyager” somehow sounded wrong. In contrast to “The Enterprise” and “The Defant” which both sounded completely natural and right.   Then we got Enterprise, and on that show, they did the same thing. They called the ship “Enterprise”, not “The Enterprise” That annoyed me a little, but I got over it.   But nowadays, in Strange New Worlds, they are referring to the original starship Enterprise, the one commanded by Pike and eventually Kirk, as “Enterprise.” I'm sorry, but that's just wrong. That ship was always “The Enterprise” so that annoys me quite a bit. I don't like it. I don't like it at all. Here, in New Voyages, we have the same problem. Carol is referring to Kirk's ship. It should be “The Enterprise”   Marcus told the science council she could terraform Lappa III in less than a decade. But with recent problems with the equipment, it's going to take twice that long. Both Marcus AND the council seem to be very inpatient about that, even though, as Scotty points out, it's a whole century faster than anybody else has done it before. It amuses me to see her pacing impatiently when we're talking timeframes of decades and centuries.    And centuries sounds about right for terraforming, something that, if it is actually possible, is not going to be quick.   Apparently, they're using transporter technology in a whole new way. Scotty wants to see what it's all about. Something goes terribly wrong and the lab explodes. Scotty and Marcus barely escape in their shuttle. But they crash. This was a pretty spectacular sequence.   The Enterprise crew have recovered Scotty and Marcus. Scotty is pretty banged up. Marcus is unconscious but should be out of here soon. But Kirk is very impatient to speak with her. He needs to know what happened on the outpost.   Jacy King plays Carol Marcus. Married to Brian Gross who plays Kirk. She's a good choice. She definitely looks the part, a lot more than Alice Eve did in Star Trek Into Darkness. And, of course, she doesn't have the inexplicable British accent.   I didn't see Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Kahn at the cinema. I don't know if it even showed here in Tasmania. But I was only 4 years old. I saw the first half of it on TV, and then watched the whole thing on VHS many years later. When I watched it, it had been quite some time since I'd seen the original TV series. So I had assumed, from the way she was introduced, that we'd seen the character of Carol Marcus at some point in the past. Of course, that wasn't the case. The back-story of Kirk and Carol Marcus always seemed like this big glaring hole that demanded to be filled. So I liked that Star Trek New Voyages chose to fill that hole.   Carol is shocked and horrified to learn all her team is dead. There's no evidence of alien contact. Kirk is going to begin the investigation assuming it was an accident. Carol wants to be a part of it. She will work with Spock.   But McCoy thinks she needs to work with someone more sensitive to her current emotional needs, given her great loss. So Kirk volunteers.   Carol's terraforming technology uses transporters to re-arrange matter. Seems like a pre-cursor to the Genesis device she'll eventually create.   Scotty thought he saw a ship on sensors, but now they can't detect anything.   Spock wants to run background checks on Carol's staff, considering the possibility of sabotage. She doesn't react to this well. There is now clear tension between her and Spock. He's not sure she should accompany him to the surface, given her “emotional outbursts.”   This episode actually gives a character arc to both Marcus and Spock. Marcus, of course, is trying to figure out how to deal with the painful emotions of having lost her crew, and feeling responsible. Spock, on the other hand, has to learn how to relate to a human who is experiencing very understandable strong emotions. It's a learning experience for both.   A quick zoom out shows us that there is indeed a ship hiding in the system. It's not cloaked. It seems to be hiding in a gas cloud. It's not a familiar design. At least, it wasn't to me, in this shot, but we'll come back to that.   Kirk goes to see Marcus. He apologises for Spock. Marcus has come to agree that Spock asked the right question, she just didn't like it.   We get some insight into why Marcus is so passionate about terraforming. She talks of a famine that happened on a world. People suffered. She wanted to help. Terraforming dead worlds is an answer, but it's far too slow to be of any practical help. She is driven by compassion for people.   She sees herself becoming a mother of worlds   It's a good conversation. There's no flirting or inappropriate behaviour, as you often get from Kirk the minute he meets a pretty girl, Just 2 people getting to know each other.  They're both people with authority. They understand each other   Kir acts s little sheepish as he starts to realise his attraction to her. Maybe he's sensing that he feels more than just sexual attraction. Something deeper.   She's feeling it too   Spock and Carol beam down to investigate destruction site. We see Xon at transporter console. He is the Vulcan character created to replace Spock in the original Star Trek Phase 2 series that was cancelled in favour of Star Trek the Motion picture, because Nimoy wasn't going to be involved in that show. When it became a movie instead of a series, Nimoy agreed to return.   Star Trek New Voyages chose to bring Xon onto the Enterprise as a new character alongside Spock.   Spock and Marcus are learning to appreciate each other. Marcus seems to be a little envious of Spock's ability to suppress emotion as a Vulcan. They've found something on the planet. Not something belonging to the team. It doesn't belong there. They're bringing it aboard for analysis.   Kirk is seeking counsel from bones on how to help Dr. Marcus through what she's going through. He claims he has no romantic interest in her. That would be wrong. Interesting to see Kirk say that when nothing usually stops him. But Carol is going through a great deal of emotional pain at the loss of her friends.   Sometimes in older fiction, like Star Trek, you'll see characters who are trying to comfort someone through grief, and suddenly it becomes romantic. Like they're taking advantage of the other person. Even Star Trek 2009 did this with Uhura and Spock, but reversing the expected gender roles. It felt really odd. I'm glad to see Kirk not doing that here. His relationship with Carol Marcus is one that is important to us as fans, so it's nice to see them doing it right.   When the mysterious object causes problems with their respirators, and even Scotty can't get a lock on Carol, Kirk has a very reckless plan to rescue her. Beaming down without a respirator of his own to give Scotty something to lock onto. It's a plan that could work, but probably not something the captain of the ships should be doing.   We're clearly seeing here how much Kirk cares about her.   Fortunately, it works.   The energy reading of the debris they found looks kinda like the graphic depicting the genesis wave in Star Trek 2. But this doesn't really go anywhere.   Kirk takes carol to the arboretum She's changed into a revealing outfit. Makes me think it's a deliberate date.   Carol is thinking of giving up. Kirk doesn't think she will. She cares too much   Kirk has been there too. At what point do you say, this is enough. Kirk says he'll tell her when he gets there. He's not there yet and neither is she   The way this is written it feels much more real than most of Kirk's many romances, of which there have been many. He's not being creepy. He's not overly flirty. It's just two people getting to know each other, going deep, and forming a genuine bond. Basically it feels like a real relationship.   It's condensed for time so it'll fit into a 1 hour episode maybe, but real nonetheless.   Carol and Spock are also growing in their relationship. A professional one. We get the impression from Star Trek II that Spock knew Carol.   Here's a question. Why does Kirk think it's appropriate to talk to the admiral with his shirt off and slung over his shoulder? I wouldn't dream of talking to my boss half dressed. If I got a surprise zoom call from him, even if I was in an unprepared state, I'd throw on a shirt before I clicked accept.   Anyway, Starfleet are itching to assemble a warfleet to engage the alien ship that might not might not be there. The admiral needs Kirk to get him some real answers. Fast.   And then, of course, we get another scene where a woman walks in on Kirk shirtless in his quarters and gets embarrassed. Seems I only just talked about this an episode or two ago, so I don't have any further comments, other than to notice it happening yet again, in another fan production.   Carol has been working very hard on her investigation and hasn't eaten for 9 hours. Kirk invites her to dinner, which she readily accepts. But it very quickly becomes apparent they're not going to dinner. They have …. Other plans.   It's really not surprising to me that the actors playing Kirk and Marcus are married. You can see the genuine affection between them. I guess that's the elusive thing that people call chemistry. Whatever that is, these two seem to have it, as you'd expect from a real couple.   The next morning, Kirk is finding himself in a bit of a melancholy place, thinking about how the Captain's chair is a lonely one. It was pretty rare for ships captains in Kirk's time to marry. It was a more wild frontier. Gone from earth for years at a time. They didn't really have families on board like they did in the 24th century. That hasn't rarely bothered him with his past conquests. Perhaps because he sees a potential future with Carol.   They're heading for the dust cloud, to try to find that evidence for Starfleet. After going to warp, Sulu says “like a leap on the solar wind” which is, of course, a reference to Firefly. Not sure exactly why they added that.   Spock has found the cause of the explosion. Protomatter. This is something that is mentioned in Star Trek 3. Apparently, David Marcus, Carol's son, used protomatter in the matrix for the Genesis device. It was the only way to solve certain problems. We're told it's use is unethical because it's “dangerously unstable”   Here, in this episode, we get a bit more of an explanation of what protomatter is. It's a remnant from the creation of the universe. It can fluctuate between matter and anti-matter states. If both appeared at the same time, an explosion would occur. It seems the matrix from Carol's experiment was contaminated with protomatter. Something she acknowledged as a very minute possibility, but so unlikely as to be statistically insignificant.  Sadly, it happened.   They've found the alien ship in the dust cloud. My first thought when seeing it this time was “that looks kinda like a Ferengi ship.” The alien's weapons are no match for the Enterprise's shields. They're refusing to respond to Kirk's hails.   When we see a camera point of view from within the alien ship, we catch a glimpse of the side of their heads. It's pretty clearly Ferengi. They claim that the transformation of the planet is a hostile act. When Kirk says they weren't aware of anyone have a claim on the planet, the response is “You didn't ask,” and Spock says they have a point. But ask who? It was an empty planet. Nobody there. It was claimed by no government that the Federation is aware of. Remember, they won't make official contact with the Ferengi until TNG season 1. So it seems to me the Federation acted in good faith with all the information they had available. I don't think they could have asked anyone else.   The alien voice makes it clear they're not interested in discovery or friendship. Only profit. And then, the episode breaks continuity by having the alien not only show his face, but identify his species as Ferengi. This is a really odd move from my point of view. They already had the Ferengi communicating by voice only. And if they wanted to show the Ferengi on screen, they could have done so purely on the alien bridge Point of View. No need for Kirk to actually see them. Why they started this way and then flipped is beyond me. They'd set it up the perfect way to include the Ferengi without breaking continuity, and then they did it anyway.   Enterprise did, of course, have an episode with Ferengi, not at no point during that episode did they mention their name to Archer and his crew.   But it occurs to me now that in Encounter at Farpoint, before that official contact, Picard had at least heard the name Ferengi. So I guess they could have heard that name this early. But it always felt to me like a more recent thing. That they'd heard of this race, The Ferengi, but just hadn't met them yet.   Anyway, the Ferengi claim to have a prior commercial arrangement with the Federation. Something that is news to Kirk. And then he say a very interesting line “The only thing more expensive than a question, is the answer.” I wonder if that's a rule of acquisition. If it isn't, then it should be.   The only logical possibility is that a member of the team on the planet had made an arrangement with the Ferengi. The question is, did Dr. Marcus know about it? Kirk is quick to come to her defence, based on his knowledge of her character. But can he offer any evidence?   Carol is really struggling with having lost crewmembers. It's somewhat compromising her ability to think clearly. This is understandable. Kirk has left people under his command before. He sadly has to let her know that it never stops hurting. I like what they're doing with Carol's character in this story.   That protomatter came from somewhere. Maybe there was a black market going on behind her back she wasn't aware of.   They've detected protomatter in the Ferengi's cargo hold. Sabotage is not a logical possibility. It makes no financial sense to kill your trading partners.  The project was behind schedule. Someone could have purchased the protomatter to speed things up, and it went badly.   Kirk is going to try to bluff the Ferengi poker style to get information. Of course, it would be good for him to be aware of the Ferengi love of Tongo. It was the project director, Dr. Robert Dewhitt, who purchased the protomatter. He was as passionate about the project as Carol was. He must have been desperate.   Carol is going to start over. She's learned a lot from this experience. She knows how to make it work now. She's going to start inventing the Genesis device.   Three days later, they arrive at the nearest starbase to drop off Dr. Marcus. But first, she goes to see Kirk.   Kirk is hoping they can have dinner before parting ways, but she says no. Then Kirk proposes.   It seems pretty sudden after only a few days. But … Carol Marcus is his soul mate.   But she says no. For the reasons she gave in Star Trek 2. For them to be together, one of them would have to abandon their dream. Carol claims she can't do her research on The Enterprise. A lot of her work would require her to be on planets, but surely much of it, especially in the early days, would be lab work. Hard to see why that couldn't be done on the Enterprise. A ship of scientific exploration. Kirk offers to leave the Enterprise, leave Starfleet. But she won't let him do that. Over time, he would resent her for it. Which is possibly true.   She admits she loves him, but, but asks him to stay away. For all their sakes - all three.   And this is where it gets really unfair. She tells him she's pregnant with David, and asks him to stay away. To have absolutely no contact with his son. Ever. This is how it has to be, because this is what Star Trek 2 set up. But I believe Carol is wrong here. I believe she is hurting not only Jim, but David as well. Robbing them both of the relationship they both deserve to have.   This is heart-breaking stuff. Kirk gallantly does as Carol wishes. Honestly, I don't know how he has the strength.   This must haunt him every day for the rest of his life. It would me.   This episode relies on accepting a lot of truncated time regarding Kirk and Carol's relationship. There's no way around that when you're telling the story of the entire relationship in one episode. But I forgive it because it's a great story. A very fitting prequel to Star Trek 2.   As fun as it was, I'm not sure what the point of the framing device with TNG Scotty was, other than maybe to show that the terraforming efforts eventually succeeded and people are living there now. I would argue that it wasn't necessary, and might even distract from the episode. But It was cool either way.   But another little thing. At the beginning, Scotty says that Lappa III was uninhabited - or so we thought. I don't think they paid off that statement. We learn of no indigenous life on the planet. The closest we get to a payoff is the Ferengi, but they're not living on the planet, just trading with one of the crew. So I'm not sure what happened there.   Next time, we're going to look at the first part of Star Trek Coninue's two-part finale. “To Boldly Go.”   I'm looking forward to talking about it.   Don't forget the first three books in my Jewel of The Stars sci-fi series are available on Amazon, Kobok, Google Play, Apple, all the usual places.   Until next time Live long and prosper Make it so.

On Tales From A Luxury Yacht Chef with Lisa Meade this week I reached out to Yacht Chef Niki Smith, who grew up in a yachting family, but never planned to actually work on yachts herself... Well, that soon changed as she and her husband, Captain Scott, spent the majority of their yachting life together based in the Caribbean.

He came to the steamboat companies asking for a job, and they laughed him off. So he built his own boat on a shoestring budget — then used it to eat their lunch on the upper Willamette run. (Oregon City, Clackamas County; 1870s) (For text and pictures, see http://offbeatoregon.com/o1110d-uriah-scott-ugly-steamboat-eats-monopolys-lunch.html)

Polar exploration is dangerous... but trudging hundreds of miles in subzero temperatures isn't made any easier if you're suffering from scurvy. The deadly vitamin deficiency destroys the body and will of even the strongest and most determined adventurer - and it seems that scurvy stuck down the ill-fated expedition of Captain Scott.  But scurvy... in 1912? Hadn't the Royal Navy to which Scott belonged famously cracked the problem of scurvy a century before, with a daily dose of lime juice? How did the 'Limeys' seemingly unlearn that lesson?  For a full list of sources go to timharford.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Roald Amundsen beat Captain Scott to the South Pole. The Norwegian - using dog sleds and skis - made it look easy... fun, even. He was heading home to safety, while the British party - hauling sleds by hand - were struggling to survive out on the ice. In this case, to the victor went a spoiled reputation. The British grumbled that Amundsen had somehow cheated, or had at least behaved in an underhand manner. These stinging accusations would haunt the adventurer until the day he died in the polar wastes. For a full list of sources go to timharford.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Captain Scott and I discuss the results from the Marine Corps Marksmanship Competition National Capital Region. We explained our roles during the 2 week period and how the competitors performed during that 2 week period.

Captain Scott Walker and I talk about some of the do's and don'ts of reef fishing while we can tuna in his kitchen. The Florida Keys have reefs 4 miles out, easily accessible. Because they are easily accessible you need to be courteous because there will be many boats out there trying to fish. Charter boats are out there trying to make a living and you are out there to make your friends and family happy. The biggest mistake I see is how much chum you bring when going fishing. Before you even set out make sure that you are taking enough chum. Chum and they will come. The commercial blocks of chum are very bulky, Scott uses 7-pound blocks and uses a dedicated cooler for chum and fills it up with as much as he can. Reefs support a lot of fish and chum holds them there - so when you pull up, if boats are already lined up, keep your distance (about 50-75 yards) and set your anchor out in front of your boat so when you come tight you will be stern to stern with the other boats. For yellowtail you want to be 35-90 feet deep, Mangrove Snappers you want to find rock piles in Hawks Channel. They could be as close as 1-2 miles off the beach. You just have to consult local charter boats and check your charts. Wherever you have hard rocks, grass, and sand - you chum it and the mangroves will be there.
