Podcasts about HMS Beagle

A l'occasion de la Journée mondiale de Darwin, le 12 février, BSG rediffuse une série consacrée au père de la théorie de l'Évolution.Dans cet épisode, l'explorateur Alexander Von Humboldt, le botaniste et entomologiste John Henslow et le géologue Charles Lyell, dont les explorations, les études et les théories ont beaucoup influencé le jeune Darwin.Alexander von Humboldt (1769 - 1859) est le «second découvreur de l'Amérique». Cet allemand, frère intrépide du fondateur de l'université de Berlin, était un mix entre De Vinci et Mike Horn pour faire simple;) Un esprit universel, qui remonté l'Orénoque en pirogue, escaladé le volcan Chimborazo (un volcan très spécial, cf épisodes volcans avec JM Bardintzeff), bravant bien des tempêtes au long cours...John Stevens Henslow obtient en 1822 la chaire de minéralogie de l'université de Cambridge. Ce religieux progressiste se passionne pour la botanique et l'entomologie. Henslow est un professeur très recherché. Son élève Charles Darwin lui doit son intérêt pour l'histoire naturelle. C'est grâce à Henslow que Darwin rencontre le capitaine Robert FitzRoy du HMS Beagle.Le géologue Charles Lyell expose vers 1830 une théorie très controversée: la terre aurait été façonnée lentement, pendant des millions d'années, par des forces toujours existantes (uniformitarisme). Cette vision s'oppose au catastrophisme soutenu par Cuvier. Selon le Français, la Terre avait été modelée par une série de catastrophes, tel le déluge, dans un laps de temps court. Cuvier was wrong... Lyell, ami proche de Charles Darwin, est l'un des premiers scientifiques reconnus à apporter son appui à L'Origine des espèces, à une époque où Darwin essuyait une grosse shitstorm...Jean-Claude Simard est  professeur de philosophie et chercheur à l'Université du Québec à Montréal, et un grand connaisseur de la vie de Charles Darwin.Sur la photo: Alexander Von Humboldt_______

Tonight, we'll read from the seventh chapter of British naturalist Charles Darwin's “The Voyage of the Beagle” titled “Buenos Aires and Santa Fe”. “The Voyage of the Beagle” is the title most commonly given to the book first published in 1839 as Darwin's “Journal and Remarks”, bringing him considerable fame and respect. The book chronicles Darwin's five-year journey aboard the HMS Beagle, during which he made groundbreaking observations that contributed to his theory of evolution by natural selection. If you'd like to start from the beginning, the first episode of this series aired on June 10th, 2024, with subsequent monthly episodes exploring Darwin's journey in detail. This chapter explores Darwin's overland journey from Buenos Aires to Santa Fe, Argentina, providing vivid descriptions of the landscape, people, and wildlife he encounters. The region is dominated by flat, fertile plains, part of the expansive Pampas, which Darwin admires for their vastness and agricultural potential. He observes the lifestyles of the local inhabitants, including gauchos, whose skills in horsemanship and simple yet resourceful way of life fascinate him. Darwin also reflects on the history and politics of the region, commenting on the social conditions and the impact of Spanish colonization. He describes the wildlife in detail, noting the abundance of large birds like rheas and the diversity of smaller animals. Darwin continues his geological studies, examining rock formations and fossils that reveal the natural history of the area. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

De Nederlandse klipper Oosterschelde is bezig aan een twee jaar durende wereldreis met het Darwin200 project. Het schip meert aan op dezelfde plekken als Charles Darwin en de HMS Beagle tussen 1831 en 1836. Tijdens iedere stop krijgen enkele jonge natuurbeschermers van over de hele wereld de mogelijkheid mee te werken aan lokale beschermingsprojecten. "What we are trying to do with this project, is create a wave of amazing drivers of change, young conservationist born with that passion to change the world", zegt Stewart McPherson. Hij is de medeoprichter en projectleider van Darwin200 en wij spraken hem in Sydney, aan boord van de Oosterschelde.

In this week's HappenedHere podcast, we take you to 1835 when Charles Darwin set foot on the remote Galapagos Islands during his voyage on HMS Beagle. His meticulous observations of the wildlife would later form the basis of his revolutionary Theory of Evolution. Written by Hamish Roberts, performed by Shama Rahman and hosted by Robbie Stamp. Sound Editor Viel Richardson.

Was wissen wir über den Engländer, der 1859 das Weltbild auf den Kopf gestellt hat, was war er für ein Typ? Und wie kam er auf seine revolutionäre Evolutionstheorie? Warum zwischen diesen Fragen ein Zusammenhang bestehen könnte und welche Rolle die Geologie dabei gespielt hat, das beantwortet Paläontologe Dr. Florian Witzmann in dieser Folge. Er ist aber nicht der einzige Gast, der sich den Fragen von Host Lukas Klaschinski stellt: Dr. Sarah Darwin, Botanikerin und Ururenkelin des Naturforschers, spricht über ihren Ururgroßvater, der den Grundstein für unser heutiges Wissen über die Entstehung der Tier- und Pflanzenarten gelegt hat. Dieser Podcast entsteht in freundlicher Produktionsunterstützung der Auf die Ohren GmbH und wurde 2021 als Bester Podcast mit dem Deutschen Hörbuchpreis ausgezeichnet.

Even if you don't know what the man's about you've probably heard the name Charles Darwin. At the very least you've seen one of those Jesus Fish car decals with legs and the name Darwin in the middle. Well Mr. Darwin was kind of a jack of all trades when it came to the fields of science. What started as a childhood passion for insects grew into a love for the natural sciences of the world, geology and biology primarily. What cemented Charles Darwin as a revolutionary of science would be his introduction of the theory of evolution in a world where religion and divine creation were fact. He challenged the very belief in where we come from and how we came to be here. What inspired Darwin to pursue this theory came about during a five year voyage around the world to study, collect, catalogue and sometimes eat literally anything and everything he came across in these strange lands he traveled. Join us as we discuss the Father of Evolution. 

The Dutch ship Oosterschelde is on a two-year mission to work with future scientists who will study species discovered by Charles Darwin and develop projects to save them. The journey is retracing Darwin's famous travels onboard the HMS Beagle, from 1831-1836. Two hundred young naturalists from around the world are expected to participate in the project over the course of two years. Here, 11 of the 200 participants, known as Darwin 200 leaders, spent time studying the environment and its flora and fauna, big and small, like scavenging beetles and sea turtles. And they were joined by Sarah Darwin, the great-great-granddaughter of Charles Darwin, herself a botanist. “The Darwin 200 project is a really innovative project,” she says. “They are empowering young people from all over the world... These people will then go back to their own countries with this newfound knowledge and this incredibly supportive network of fellow Darwin 200 leaders, as well as scientists and conservationists.” Darwin set sail aboard the HMS Beagle in 1831 on a five-year voyage that passed around South America and went to Australia and New Zealand. The visit to the Galápagos Islands was one of the most famous stops during his journey. “Charles Darwin was 22 when he left the coast of the UK on HMS Beagle on this five-year voyage. So he was quite similar in a way to a lot of these young people,” says Sarah Darwin. “He was enthusiastic. He wasn't a trained scientist, but he was very, very passionate about nature, and nature was his inspiration. And so actually he shares a lot of characteristics with these Darwin 200 leaders,” she adds. Sarah Darwin worked with the young conservationists on the islands for two weeks, studying the Galápagos tomato. The exchange of skills and knowledge between all the participants of the Darwin 200 project is inspiring, she says: “The idea is, is that we'll be educating these young people. But of course, in actual fact, they also educate us. I mean, I learned so much about communication. They're so skilled at how to communicate to their peer groups. " It will run until July 20, 2025, when the ship will return to the UK. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Először is, elnézést kérünk. Nem tudjuk már utólag, mit kevertünk egymás italába, de Grath szép hajós témája vállalhatatlanul éretlen, fiúkoleszos viccelődésbe fulladt. Reméljük, ennek ellenére / ezzel együtt / éppen ezért tetszeni fog, mert tényleg jó kis téma: egy nagyszerű hajó, ami talán kevésbé nagyszerű embereket szállított, legalábbis a tűzföldi őslakosok véleménye valószínűleg nem volt egyöntetűen pozitív. És azt tudtátok, hogy Charles Darwin, a neves tudós mindent, de tényleg, MINDENT megevett?

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 Origin of Species" by Charles Darwin, published in 1859, revolutionized scientific understanding by proposing the theory of evolution through natural selection. Darwin's observations during his voyage on the HMS Beagle led to a paradigm shift in how life on Earth is viewed, laying the foundation for modern evolutionary biology.

This episode journeys to the Galápagos islands where we investigate everyone's favorite sterile, PTSD-ridden conservation leftovers. The islands are known for their iconic wildlife, but those dumb finches get plenty of attention, we wanna talk about the goats! And the absolutely insane honeypot style scheme to eradicate them. And the tortoises! Well, mostly just one named George. Have you ever wondered why goats hate helicopters? Wanna know how to get oil from a tortoise? Have you ever felt the deeply scientific urge to poke Chris Evans' peck? Well so did lonesome George… possibly, I mean we can't prove he didn't. Pour yourself a Pina Colada and climb down into the cold, damp, turtle-filled hold of the HMS Beagle cause it's island time baby!  Follow us on instagram @biobabespodcast for the most niche memes and info on upcoming episodes.  Huge thanks to @Absolute Quantum for our theme music.

Cary Odes has been a standup comic for 45 years, coming up through the ranks at the legendary Comedy Store in Los Angeles, sharing the stage with David Letterman, Richard Pryor and Robin Williams, under the tutelage of Mitzi Shore, where he was the very first paid regular. More importantly to Ojai, he's been teaching standup comedy here in Ojai for more than 20 years, turning a bunch of boring schlubs into comic dynamos, presenting their "tight fives" to adoring crowds. On Sunday, April 14th, his latest batch of comics will perform to a sold-out audience at Kim Maxwell Studios, with another show planned for Friday, April 18th. We talked about how Cary got into comedy as an extension of him and a friend entertaining themselves, then realizing in college that he had a special talent for making people laugh. After studying in Chicago with the improvisational great Del Close, Cary nearly got his big break on the show "Bosom Buddies," and had his role snatched by a then-unknown Tom Hanks, and has steadily worked every since, touring the country, and now teaching his eight-week master classes in which students learn the components and craft of a joke (the premise, the setup, the act out, the turn) and perform the alchemy in which they take their pain and vulnerabilities and turn into the healing balm of laughter. We talked about how his style has evolved over the years, the joys of teaching, anecdotes from the trenches of the standup circuit, how to bomb on stage gracefully, and how comedy might be the Next Big Thing in the healing arts. We did not talk about kitchen knife-sharpening techniques, wolverine-trimmed parkas or the voyages of the HMS Beagle. Check out more about Cary at his website, thestandupworkshop.com where you can sign up for a class, or private lessons, or enter a joke contest.

Se están conmemorando los 190 años de la llegada a Uruguay del naturalista inglés Charles Darwin, uno de los científicos más influyentes entre otras cosas por su teoría de evolución de las especies. Darwin arribó dos veces a Uruguay a bordo del HMS Beagle, el bergantín de la marina británica en el que recorrió el mundo recolectando muestras de animales, plantas y rocas. La primera vez fue en julio de 1832. Luego viajó a Argentina y volvió a Uruguay en la primavera de 1833. En sus dos estadías en esta tierra Darwin visitó Montevideo, Maldonado, Colonia, Lavalleja, Soriano y San José. En esos lugares realizó observaciones y coleccionó plantas y animales, que luego contribuyeron al desarrollo de su teoría. Las celebraciones por el 190º aniversario, que incluyen charlas, muestras y presentación de audiovisuales, comenzaron en setiembre del año pasado y continúan hasta estos días. La Mesa de los Viernes con Alejandro Abal, Marcia Collazo, Juan Grompone y Gonzalo Pérez del Castillo.

"We should every night call ourselves to an account: What infirmity have I mastered today? What passions opposed? What temptation resisted? What virtue acquired? Our vices will abate of themselves if they be brought every day to the shrift." - Seneca, "Moral Letters to Lucilius," Letter 83."At the end of the day, you should always be able to ask yourself: What weakness did I overcome today? What virtue did I acquire?" - Marcus Aurelius, "Meditations," Book 5, Section 9 (paraphrased).Three years ago, I started journaling everynight before bed. Inspired by renowned writer Jim Collins (Author of Good to Great & Built to Last), I developed a system that not only allows me to reflect on my day but also to objectively rate my experiences, track my progress, and sometimes preserve my memories by saving photographs. This week, I will share my personal approach to journaling and offer you the tools to start your own journal which will foster personal growth and allow you to gain a deeper insight into your life experiences. Journaling every night has become an integral and profoundly impactful activity in my life, one that I hope to continue indefinitely. When I tell people that I journal, I'm amazed at how many friends and mentors will share with me that they journal too. There are many remarkable people throughout history that journaled, including Leonardo da Vinci, Charles Darwin, Theodore Roosevelt, Thomas Edison, Ernest Hemingway, Winston Churchill, John Adams, Ludwig van Beethoven, Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus.In my three years of consistent journaling, I have experienced numerous benefits that have significantly impacted my life, both in terms of self-awareness and overall well-being. Here are the main advantages that I have discovered through this daily practice:* Enhanced reflection and gratitude: Journaling at the end of the night provides me an opportunity to reflect on the day's events and appreciate the positive experiences that might otherwise be overshadowed by our natural tendency to dwell on negative occurrences. This practice helps to cultivate gratitude and fosters a more balanced perspective on my daily life.* Greater understanding of the connection between my activities and my emotions: Journaling allows me to analyze how the choices I make throughout the day impact my mood and overall satisfaction. For example, I've noticed a clear correlation between exercising and experiencing positive emotions at the end of the day, while poor diet choices and excessive screen time often lead to negative feelings. This awareness enables me to break unproductive patterns and prioritize activities that contribute to my happiness and well-being. As a self-proclaimed data nerd, this insight is particularly valuable for making informed decisions about my daily routine.* A valuable record for future reference and reminiscing: Maintaining a running log of my experiences, thoughts, and emotions creates a treasure trove of memories and insights that can be revisited and enjoyed at any time. With my digital journal, I can easily look back to a specific date, search for moments shared with a particular person, or explore similar experiences from the past. This archive not only serves as a powerful tool for personal growth but also allows me to reconnect with cherished memories and appreciate the journey I've been on.Here are some practical examples of how journaling helped me. After my friend Joe passed away, I wanted to reminisce about the memories we shared together. I wondered when we had last spent time together. By searching my journal, I could relive the moments I had saved about Joe. It was a healing experience, allowing me to recall the wonderful times we had in greater detail.One of my favorite features on Facebook is the "memories" feature, where you can look back on posts and pictures from the same day in previous years. I do the same thing with my journal. I'll look back one year from today and read about what I was doing at that time. Since it's my personal journal and not my public Facebook page, the entries are more personal and genuine compared to what I share with the world on Facebook. It helps me remember and appreciate my experiences from a year ago, which I often forget. Most recently, this was helpful because I could look back on my beginnings as a runner. I could see my excitement from a year ago when I completed my first full run around the lake. I was able to relive the thrill of that accomplishment back then, but I also appreciated the progress I've made since. I now regularly complete that run and in much less time. It's nice to take a moment to celebrate my progress and improvement as a runner. The journal allowed me to do this. Here's How: A Bullet Proof System for JournalingThe Tools: * Google Form to Record My Journal (Shared Below)* Google Calendar Reminder: To remind me every night to journal. * Short Cut on My Phone Home Screen: Instructions below for setting it up on iPhone. My Journaling Process: Each night, I get a reminder from my Google Calendar at 9:30pm to remind me to journal. In the calendar reminder there is a link to the Google Form to complete my journal. I also have the link saved on the homescreen of my iPhone and in my bookmark toolbar on Google Chrome. This way I can always quickly get into the journal. It's important to make it as easy as possible to journal. As we talked about before, I like to apply the principles from the book "Atomic Habits." I use "The Four Laws of Behavior Change" to create new habits: make it obvious, make it attractive, make it easy, and make it satisfying. The goal is to make journaling as easy as possible. Remembering to journal and then starting to write is probably the hardest part. Once I'm in the journal I begin by rating my day on a scale from -2 to 2, with 2 representing an incredible, unforgettable day and -2 signifying a particularly challenging or difficult one. While this rating is inherently subjective, I strive to maintain as much objectivity as possible in my assessment. The rating provides a quantifiable measurement of my satisfaction with the day. Following this, I proceed to write a journal entry detailing the events of my day. Some entries are concise, consisting of just a sentence or two, while others span multiple paragraphs, delving into the nuances and emotions of my experiences. To complement my written reflections, I also have the option to upload photographs from the day, creating a visual record of my memories if I feel it would be helpful.To facilitate this daily practice, I've created a straightforward and user-friendly Google Form, which serves as the platform for my journal entries. I like it because it's completely free and it's very easy to use and edit. I'll share a copy that you can use to kickstart your own journaling journey. Here are Two Examples from My Journals: A Good Day & A Bad DayI thought it might be helpful for you to see two examples from my own journal. Here is an example of a gread day. Friday - 5/5/2023 - Rating: 2 (Great Day) Today was a fantastic day, even though I didn't accomplish much work. I began by taking a refreshing run around the lake before indulging in a bath, despite knowing I probably shouldn't. (Baths correlate with lazy days for me.) Later, I had a conversation with PNC bank, and Laken arrived home from work earlier than expected.We embarked on our vacation to Grand Haven and Spring Lake, making a pitstop at the XXXXX Donuts production facility. Lane had an incredible opportunity to create his own donuts, while the owner, gave us a tour of the facility. It was really cool to learn that he can produce up to 14,000 donuts per day, with the potential to expand even further.Our journey continued to Grand Haven, where I'm scheduled to skydive with Skydive Grand Haven at 1 pm on Saturday. We checked into the Holiday Inn in Spring Lake, which has an excellent location right by the water, both outdoor and indoor pools, a fitness center, and a good price. The hotel even has boat docks and a spacious parking lot. We should come back. For dinner, we went to Fuel, which turned out to be great. Afterward, we visited Michael and Noella's home. They have an extensive circle of neighbor friends, all with children of their own. At one point, there must have been 20 kids playing in the yard. Lane had a blast and was the center of attention, bringing the donuts for everyone to enjoy. Lane climbed a tree for the first time with the help of some friendly girls. It was great to see him getting along with the kids so well.I couldn't help but feel a bit of envy towards Michael and Noella for having such a close-knit group of friends as neighbors, and their children having so many playmates their age. Perhaps "jealousy" isn't the right word – it's more of a longing for Lane to have a similar network of friends, especially since he doesn't have siblings. It made me wish we could provide him with a larger community to grow up alongside.We all gathered around a bonfire while the children played, and the adults shared some drinks, yard games, & pickleball. We returned to the hotel and settled in for the night around 10 pm, bringing an end to a great family day.Here is an example of a bad day: 4/24/2023 - Rating -2 (A very Bad Day) I was feeling extremely unwell today due to a stomach bug. Nausea and stomach upset all day long. The sickness lasted for about 24 hours, and I couldn't eat anything. It was brutal. Lots of time in the bathroom. Initially, I thought my poor eating habits from the previous days caused it, but it seems more like food poisoning. I must remember to eat healthy. It might not have caused this issues but it never helps. Indulging in unhealthy food may provide momentary pleasure, but I always feel like s**t later. By choosing to eat healthily, I might sacrifice those brief moments of satisfaction, but I will feel much better most of the time. I am committed to improving my diet.Historic Greats: Journal Keepers and ThinkersMany famous people throughout history have kept journals or diaries as a way to record their thoughts, experiences, and ideas. Here are a few notable individuals who were known to write in their journals regularly, often on a nightly basis:* Leonardo da Vinci the famous Italian artist and polymath who wrote extensively in his notebooks and journals throughout his life, covering a wide range of topics including art, science, engineering, and anatomy.* Charles Darwin, the biologist, kept detailed journals and notebooks during his journey on the HMS Beagle, where he recorded his observations and ideas that would later form the foundation of his theory of evolution.* Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States, was a dedicated journal-keeper who recorded his thoughts and experiences from his time as a young naturalist and explorer to his years in the White House.* Thomas Edison, the American inventor and businessman, documented his ideas, experiments, and inventions throughout his life in numerous notebooks and journals.* Ernest Hemingway, the American author and journalist, maintained journals and notebooks during his travels and writing career, which gave insight into his creative process and personal experiences.* Winston Churchill, a British statesman and author who served as Prime Minister during World War II, kept a diary that documented his thoughts and experiences during his time in office.* John Adams, the second President of the United States, was a prolific writer who kept diaries and journals throughout his life, recording his thoughts on politics, philosophy, and personal matters.* Ludwig van Beethoven, the composer and pianist, documented his thoughts on music, art, and life in a series of conversation books and personal journals.——-The Science of Journaling every night and the benefits You know I love data. So here it is… Research has consistently shown that regular journaling offers a range of significant benefits for individuals, including enhanced emotional well-being, stress reduction, improved immune function, better cognitive performance, and improved sleep quality. By expressing thoughts and emotions through writing, individuals can process traumatic experiences, better manage stress, and even boost their immune system. Journaling also helps to organize thoughts, clarify ideas, and facilitate problem-solving, leading to improved cognitive processing and working memory capacity. Furthermore, engaging in journaling before bedtime has been linked to reduced worry and stress, resulting in better sleep quality. Overall, nightly journaling can contribute to a healthier, more balanced lifestyle with numerous physical and psychological benefits.* Emotional well-being: A study conducted by Pennebaker and Beall (1986) demonstrated that expressive writing or journaling about emotional experiences can lead to improvements in mental health. Participants who wrote about traumatic experiences showed significant decreases in distress and better overall well-being compared to those who wrote about neutral topics.Source: Pennebaker, J.

On September 15, 1835, the Galapagos Islands welcomed the arrival of a ship that had traversed South America, offering a strikingly different landscape. The vessel, HMS Beagle, still had just over a year before it would return to England. Aboard the ship was a young naturalist named Charles Darwin, who was unaware that his brief five-week exploration of the Galapagos Archipelago would ultimately inspire him to pen a world-altering book. This work would revolutionize our comprehension of the origins and diversity of the countless species that have existed and continue to exist on Earth. Evolution Talk is also a book!

英语新闻｜达尔文《物种起源》手稿将被拍卖An "extremely rare" manuscript signed by English naturalist Charles Darwin is expected to fetch up to $790,000 at a Sotheby's auction next month.一份由英国博物学家达尔文签名的“极为罕见”的手稿，预计将在下个月苏富比拍卖会上拍得79万美元。The document contains a passage from the famous 1859 work On the Origin of Species, in which Darwin put forth his theory of evolution by natural selection.该手稿包含1859年《物种起源》中的一段，达尔文在这部巨著中提出了生物进化的自然选择学说。The document was once thought to be a discarded page from an earlier manuscript of the work. But experts now understand the manuscript was written in 1865 and sent to Hermann Kindt, the editor of the Autographic Mirror who had requested a signed writing sample from Darwin.这份文稿曾经被认为是《物种起源》早期手稿中被丢弃的一页。但专家们现在了解到，这份手稿写于1865年，《自动镜像》编辑赫尔曼·金特要求他提供一份签名的样本，因此达尔文写后寄给金特。"While some of Darwin's notes and manuscript leaves have survived over the last hundred or more years, he was known to obsessively revise his publications, often discarding pages from working drafts and treating them as scrap paper, making any autograph manuscript extremely rare," Sotheby's said in a statement.苏富比在一份声明中说：“尽管达尔文的一些笔记和手稿已经保存了一百多年，但众所周知，他痴迷于修改自己的出版物，经常丢弃工作草稿的纸张，把它们当成废纸，这使得达尔文亲笔签名的手稿极为罕见。”On the Origin of Species was voted the most influential academic book of all time in a public poll held during Academic Book Week in 2015, beating out other seminal works including The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, The Republic by Plato, and the complete works of William Shakespeare.2015年的“学术图书周”的公开投票中，《物种起源》被评为有史以来最具影响力的学术著作，击败了卡尔·马克思和弗里德里希·恩格斯的《共产党宣言》、柏拉图的《理想国》和威廉·莎士比亚全集。The book offers Darwin's revolutionary idea that species evolve incrementally over generations via the process of natural selection.在书中达尔文表达了自己革命性的观点，即物种通过自然选择的过程代代相继地进化。"I have now recapitulated the chief facts and considerations which have thoroughly convinced me that species have been modified, during a long course of descent, by the preservation or the natural selection of many successive slight favorable variations," the document reads.“我现在重述了主要事实和考虑，这些事实和考虑让我彻底相信，在漫长的进化过程中，通过许多连续的轻微有利变异的保存或自然选择，物种已经被改变，”该文件写道。Darwin backed up his theory with evidence collected during his 1831-1836 voyage on the HMS Beagle, during which he observed and collected specimens from a number of species. One major observation occurred on the Galapagos Islands off the coast of Ecuador. Darwin noted that the finches on the island were similar to finches on the mainland, however, the availability of different foods in each area had led to discrepancies in beak anatomy. 1831至1836年，达尔文在小猎犬号上航行时观察并收集了一些物种的标本，他用这些收集的证据支持他的理论。达尔文的重大发现产生于厄瓜多尔海岸外的加拉帕戈斯群岛。他指出，群岛上的地雀与大陆的地雀相似，但每个地区可获得的食物种类不同，导致喙的解剖结构产生差异。"I cannot believe that a false theory would explain, as it seems to me that the theory of natural selection does explain, the several large classes of facts above specified," the excerpt adds. "It is no valid objection that science as yet throws no light on the far higher problem of the essence or origin of life."“我不相信一个错误的理论会做出这样解释，正如我认为自然选择理论确实解释了上述几大类事实一样，”手稿片段显示，“科学还没有对更高层次的关于生命本质或起源的问题进行阐释，这不是有效的反对意见。”The manuscript will be placed on display at Sotheby's in New York between Nov 30 and Dec 8, and online bids will be accepted between Nov 25 and Dec 8. The auction house estimates that the document will fetch between $600,000 and $790,000.手稿将于11月30日至12月8日在纽约苏富比展出，11月25日至12月8日期间将接受网上竞价。拍卖行估计，这份文件的售价在60万美元到79万美元之间。The auction, which is titled Age of Wonder, will also include a first edition of On the Origin of Species and a copy of On the Tendency of Species to form Varieties, which is a scientific paper written by Darwin and Welsh naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace.这次拍卖会名为名为“奇迹时代”，还将包括第一版《物种起源》以及“物种形成品种的趋势”的复制品，后者是达尔文和威尔士博物学家阿尔弗雷德·拉塞尔·华莱士所写的一篇科学论文。incrementally英[ˌɪŋkrəˈmentəli] 美[ˌɪŋkrəˈmentəli]adv.递增地recapitulate 英[ˌriːkəˈpɪtʃuleɪt] 美[ˌriːkəˈpɪtʃuleɪt]v. 概括fetch英[fetʃ] 美[fetʃ]v.售得，卖得

Lindell made the revelation in a video posted to social media. https://twitter.com/i/status/1569847934849634306 - Play Video Lindell further elaborated about the incident on his show, "The Lindell Report." He said he was going through the Hardee's drive-thru when FBI agents approached him and demanded he hand over his phone. He said that he eventually handed over his phone after consulting his lawyer. Lindell said that the search warrant was likely related to his claims about voting machines manufactured by the Dominion company. He has been one of the foremost proponents of the conspiracy theory that the election was stolen from former President Donald Trump through the use of fraudulent voting machines. The search warrant was likely a part of a dozens of subpoenas reportedly issued by the Department of Justice in connection to the probe into efforts to overturn the official results of the election. Dominion filed a $1.3 billion lawsuit in February 2021 over Lindell's accusations. He issued a defiant response over the lawsuit in January. "I want Dominion to put up their lawsuit because we have 100% evidence that China and other countries used their machines to steal the election," Lindell said. https://www.dailywire.com/news/white-house-grapples-to-avoid-nationwide-railroad-strike-that-could-send-gas-prices-soaring-hamstring-supply-chain White House Grapples To Avoid Nationwide Railroad Strike That Could Send Gas Prices Soaring, Hamstring Supply Chain The White House is seeking to prevent a nationwide railroad strike that could worsen supply chain bottlenecks and increase gas prices. BNSF, CSX, Norfolk Southern, and Union Pacific announced embargoes on certain shipments earlier this week as negotiations continue with two of the nation’s largest rail unions — the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen and SMART Transportation Division. The Biden administration created a Presidential Emergency Board via executive order two months ago to facilitate the negotiations. “We have made crystal clear to the interested parties the harm that American families, businesses and farmers, and communities would experience if they were not to reach a resolution,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters on Tuesday, adding that the administration is working with shipping, trucking, and air freight companies to “see how they can step in and keep goods moving in case of this rail shutdown.” Labor Secretary Marty Walsh is slated to host union leaders and rail company executives on Wednesday morning, according to a statement from a Department of Labor spokesperson. Supply chain bottlenecks driven by widespread labor shortages and lockdowns in Asian manufacturing hubs have impacted the American economy over the past two years, contributing to higher inflation as consumer goods fail to reach shelves. The daily cost of a nationwide rail shutdown could amount to $2 billion, according to a report from the Association of American Railroads. Moving shipments to truckers would require the equivalent of 467,000 additional long-haul trucks per day — growth that would take “years of concerted effort” to achieve, especially amid a shortage of more than 80,000 truck drivers. The Retail Industry Leaders Association explained in a July letter to the Biden administration that freight rail accounts for 40% of long-distance shipping volume — “more than any other mode of transportation.” Last month, the White House suggested increasing railroad employee pay by 24% over the next two years — a measure that would lead to an average raise of $11,000 per employee. “An agreement based on these terms would lead to the largest general wage increase in nearly 40 years,” Association of American Railroads CEO Ian Jefferies said in a statement. Gas prices could increase between $0.35 and $0.75 per gallon if a railroad strike continued for multiple days, warned GasBuddy analyst Patrick De Haan. “Since ethanol primarily moves via rail, and much of the nation blends ethanol into all grades, it would be a big challenge,” he remarked on social media. The national average price of gasoline was $2.38 per gallon when Biden assumed office and increased to $3.53 per gallon by the start of the Russian invasion. After surpassing $5.00 per gallon in early June, prices have subsided to $3.70 per gallon as of Wednesday, according to data from AAA. https://dailycaller.com/2022/09/14/cpac-letter-republican-offices-support-bill-banning-gender-surgeries-minors-marjorie-taylor-greene/ CPAC Pressuring Every GOP Office To Support Bill Banning Gender Surgeries On Minors The Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC) sent a letter Tuesday to every Republican in the House of Representatives, calling on them to cosponsor a bill that would ban gender surgeries on minors. The letter, which was first obtained by the Daily Caller, was sent to every House Republican Chief of Staff, Deputy Chief of Staff and Legislative Director and urges them to back Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s “Protect Children’s Innocence Act.” The bill charges any person who knowingly performed gender-affirming care on a minor with a Class C Felony, which could put them in prison for 10 to 25 years or require a maximum $250,000 fine. The legislation, originally introduced on Aug. 19, also prohibits all taxpayer-funded gender-affirming care, prohibits institutions of higher education from providing instruction on gender-affirming care, and more. “Across the country we have seen the radical gender politics of the Woke Left infiltrate all facets of our lives. As a result, the Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC) has undertaken an effort to drive legislation throughout the country to protect children from the Left’s radical gender theory in schools, sports, and medicine,” the letter reads. “As such, we view Rep. Taylor Greene’s Protect Children’s Innocence Act as common-sense legislation meant to protect children. Accordingly, CPAC supports the Protect Children’s Innocence Act and urges you to co-sponsor the legislation,” the letter continues. The Daily Caller reported Tuesday that the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction promotes transgender video and reading resources explicitly aimed at preschoolers, according to a guide titled “Resources for Gender Expansive Preschoolers.” https://www.breitbart.com/crime/2022/09/14/almost-half-san-francisco-residents-say-were-victims-of-crime-in-past-5-years/ Nearly half of all San Francisco, California, residents say that they have been victims of crime in the past five years, according to a survey conducted by the San Francisco Chronicle. The Chronicle reported Tuesday: A sweeping poll commissioned by The Chronicle drew sobering results: Nearly half of respondents said they were victims of theft in the last five years, while roughly a quarter were physically attacked or threatened. The majority had negative impressions of law enforcement. The SFNext poll asked a random sample of 1,653 city residents more than 90 questions about numerous aspects of life in San Francisco. It was conducted in late June and July, and respondents reflect the city’s demographics. Forty-five percent of people surveyed for the poll said they had an item stolen within the last five years. Proportionally, Black and mixed-race respondents felt a more severe impact than other groups, with a majority — 54% of Black respondents and 55% of mixed-race respondents — reporting they had suffered theft. Property crime rates were lower for white residents, 43% of whom had a possession swiped within the time period. Critics of the poll suggest that it may have underreported crimes against Asian-American residents, who feel vulnerable lately. The Chronicle also reported that two-thirds (65%) of residents said life in the city had declined since they had moved there: “[T]he greatest unhappiness stems from frustration with the city’s biggest, seemingly intractable problems — particularly homelessness, public safety and housing affordability — as well as with the politicians who haven’t solved them yet.” Dime Payments Dime Payments is a Christian owned processing payment business.

The Boston Athletic Association confirmed on Monday that the new category would be included in all its races, including the 5K, 10K, and the half marathon going forward, according to the Daily Mail. The new category was seen in the registration information released Monday for the Marathon’s 127th run set to be held on April 17, 2023. Officials have not yet finished crafting its qualifying standards for so-called “nonbinary” runners, but the online applications will include nonbinary as a gender option. “‘Discussions are ongoing with nonbinary athletes in an effort to further promote inclusion at all BAA events. We view this first year as an opportunity to learn and grow together,” the BAA said in a statement. The Boston Marathon is not the first race to add such a category. Race organizations in Philadelphia and Brooklyn have already set up nonbinary categories for sponsored races. Some on social media worried that allowing nonbinary runners will lower standards for entrants. One social media user, for instance, noted that if they don’t make the standards hew toward the higher male standards, slower runners will abuse the category just to get qualified in a race for which it is notoriously hard to win entry.

Lindell made the revelation in a video posted to social media. https://twitter.com/i/status/1569847934849634306 - Play Video Lindell further elaborated about the incident on his show, "The Lindell Report." He said he was going through the Hardee's drive-thru when FBI agents approached him and demanded he hand over his phone. He said that he eventually handed over his phone after consulting his lawyer. Lindell said that the search warrant was likely related to his claims about voting machines manufactured by the Dominion company. He has been one of the foremost proponents of the conspiracy theory that the election was stolen from former President Donald Trump through the use of fraudulent voting machines. The search warrant was likely a part of a dozens of subpoenas reportedly issued by the Department of Justice in connection to the probe into efforts to overturn the official results of the election. Dominion filed a $1.3 billion lawsuit in February 2021 over Lindell's accusations. He issued a defiant response over the lawsuit in January. "I want Dominion to put up their lawsuit because we have 100% evidence that China and other countries used their machines to steal the election," Lindell said. https://www.dailywire.com/news/white-house-grapples-to-avoid-nationwide-railroad-strike-that-could-send-gas-prices-soaring-hamstring-supply-chain White House Grapples To Avoid Nationwide Railroad Strike That Could Send Gas Prices Soaring, Hamstring Supply Chain The White House is seeking to prevent a nationwide railroad strike that could worsen supply chain bottlenecks and increase gas prices. BNSF, CSX, Norfolk Southern, and Union Pacific announced embargoes on certain shipments earlier this week as negotiations continue with two of the nation’s largest rail unions — the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen and SMART Transportation Division. The Biden administration created a Presidential Emergency Board via executive order two months ago to facilitate the negotiations. “We have made crystal clear to the interested parties the harm that American families, businesses and farmers, and communities would experience if they were not to reach a resolution,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters on Tuesday, adding that the administration is working with shipping, trucking, and air freight companies to “see how they can step in and keep goods moving in case of this rail shutdown.” Labor Secretary Marty Walsh is slated to host union leaders and rail company executives on Wednesday morning, according to a statement from a Department of Labor spokesperson. Supply chain bottlenecks driven by widespread labor shortages and lockdowns in Asian manufacturing hubs have impacted the American economy over the past two years, contributing to higher inflation as consumer goods fail to reach shelves. The daily cost of a nationwide rail shutdown could amount to $2 billion, according to a report from the Association of American Railroads. Moving shipments to truckers would require the equivalent of 467,000 additional long-haul trucks per day — growth that would take “years of concerted effort” to achieve, especially amid a shortage of more than 80,000 truck drivers. The Retail Industry Leaders Association explained in a July letter to the Biden administration that freight rail accounts for 40% of long-distance shipping volume — “more than any other mode of transportation.” Last month, the White House suggested increasing railroad employee pay by 24% over the next two years — a measure that would lead to an average raise of $11,000 per employee. “An agreement based on these terms would lead to the largest general wage increase in nearly 40 years,” Association of American Railroads CEO Ian Jefferies said in a statement. Gas prices could increase between $0.35 and $0.75 per gallon if a railroad strike continued for multiple days, warned GasBuddy analyst Patrick De Haan. “Since ethanol primarily moves via rail, and much of the nation blends ethanol into all grades, it would be a big challenge,” he remarked on social media. The national average price of gasoline was $2.38 per gallon when Biden assumed office and increased to $3.53 per gallon by the start of the Russian invasion. After surpassing $5.00 per gallon in early June, prices have subsided to $3.70 per gallon as of Wednesday, according to data from AAA. https://dailycaller.com/2022/09/14/cpac-letter-republican-offices-support-bill-banning-gender-surgeries-minors-marjorie-taylor-greene/ CPAC Pressuring Every GOP Office To Support Bill Banning Gender Surgeries On Minors The Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC) sent a letter Tuesday to every Republican in the House of Representatives, calling on them to cosponsor a bill that would ban gender surgeries on minors. The letter, which was first obtained by the Daily Caller, was sent to every House Republican Chief of Staff, Deputy Chief of Staff and Legislative Director and urges them to back Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s “Protect Children’s Innocence Act.” The bill charges any person who knowingly performed gender-affirming care on a minor with a Class C Felony, which could put them in prison for 10 to 25 years or require a maximum $250,000 fine. The legislation, originally introduced on Aug. 19, also prohibits all taxpayer-funded gender-affirming care, prohibits institutions of higher education from providing instruction on gender-affirming care, and more. “Across the country we have seen the radical gender politics of the Woke Left infiltrate all facets of our lives. As a result, the Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC) has undertaken an effort to drive legislation throughout the country to protect children from the Left’s radical gender theory in schools, sports, and medicine,” the letter reads. “As such, we view Rep. Taylor Greene’s Protect Children’s Innocence Act as common-sense legislation meant to protect children. Accordingly, CPAC supports the Protect Children’s Innocence Act and urges you to co-sponsor the legislation,” the letter continues. The Daily Caller reported Tuesday that the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction promotes transgender video and reading resources explicitly aimed at preschoolers, according to a guide titled “Resources for Gender Expansive Preschoolers.” https://www.breitbart.com/crime/2022/09/14/almost-half-san-francisco-residents-say-were-victims-of-crime-in-past-5-years/ Nearly half of all San Francisco, California, residents say that they have been victims of crime in the past five years, according to a survey conducted by the San Francisco Chronicle. The Chronicle reported Tuesday: A sweeping poll commissioned by The Chronicle drew sobering results: Nearly half of respondents said they were victims of theft in the last five years, while roughly a quarter were physically attacked or threatened. The majority had negative impressions of law enforcement. The SFNext poll asked a random sample of 1,653 city residents more than 90 questions about numerous aspects of life in San Francisco. It was conducted in late June and July, and respondents reflect the city’s demographics. Forty-five percent of people surveyed for the poll said they had an item stolen within the last five years. Proportionally, Black and mixed-race respondents felt a more severe impact than other groups, with a majority — 54% of Black respondents and 55% of mixed-race respondents — reporting they had suffered theft. Property crime rates were lower for white residents, 43% of whom had a possession swiped within the time period. Critics of the poll suggest that it may have underreported crimes against Asian-American residents, who feel vulnerable lately. The Chronicle also reported that two-thirds (65%) of residents said life in the city had declined since they had moved there: “[T]he greatest unhappiness stems from frustration with the city’s biggest, seemingly intractable problems — particularly homelessness, public safety and housing affordability — as well as with the politicians who haven’t solved them yet.” Dime Payments Dime Payments is a Christian owned processing payment business.

The Boston Athletic Association confirmed on Monday that the new category would be included in all its races, including the 5K, 10K, and the half marathon going forward, according to the Daily Mail. The new category was seen in the registration information released Monday for the Marathon’s 127th run set to be held on April 17, 2023. Officials have not yet finished crafting its qualifying standards for so-called “nonbinary” runners, but the online applications will include nonbinary as a gender option. “‘Discussions are ongoing with nonbinary athletes in an effort to further promote inclusion at all BAA events. We view this first year as an opportunity to learn and grow together,” the BAA said in a statement. The Boston Marathon is not the first race to add such a category. Race organizations in Philadelphia and Brooklyn have already set up nonbinary categories for sponsored races. Some on social media worried that allowing nonbinary runners will lower standards for entrants. One social media user, for instance, noted that if they don’t make the standards hew toward the higher male standards, slower runners will abuse the category just to get qualified in a race for which it is notoriously hard to win entry.

(Día Internacional para el Recuerdo del Comercio de Esclavos y su Abolición) Dos siglos atrás Carlos Darwin publicó el libro titulado El viaje del Beagle, en el que describe sus cinco años de travesía por el mundo. A lo largo de ese libro, «como también en las numerosas cartas que envió a familiares y amigos entre... 1831 y... 1836, Darwin relata... anécdotas y reflexiones sobre los lugares que va conociendo y sus habitantes», escribe Ana Pais en un artículo publicado por el diario BBC Mundo en 2019. De niña Ana soñaba con ser naturalista como Carlos Darwin, pero terminó más bien explorando el mundo como periodista, trabajando inicialmente en los diarios uruguayos El País y El Observador, y posteriormente como reportera del servicio de noticias en español de la cadena británica BBC.1 «Dado que 42 de los 57 meses que el HMS Beagle pasó navegando fueron en aguas sudamericanas, la mayoría de las historias provienen de Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Ecuador, Perú y Uruguay, los incipientes países de la región que visitó —señala la periodista uruguaya—.... El primer destino... en América del Sur fue la ciudad brasileña de Salvador de Bahía, uno de los principales puertos de tráfico de esclavos. »“Darwin estaba horrorizado” por lo que observó allí —escribe la historiadora de la ciencia inglesa Janet Browne en su libro titulado [Carlos Darwin: Navegando]—. La esclavitud “despertaba en él unos poderosos instintos humanitarios”, algo que compartió con sus abuelos, padre, hermano y hermanas, todos los cuales tuvieron un rol prominente en el movimiento abolicionista británico en los siglos XVIII y XIX, agrega Browne.»2 Más adelante «en El viaje del Beagle, Darwin cuenta una “anécdota...” que en el momento lo impactó “más que cualquier [otra] historia de crueldad”. Durante su estadía en Río de Janeiro... [al intentar] darle unas indicaciones a un negro esclavo... [el joven inglés dice que] “en un esfuerzo por hacerle entender, hablé en voz alta y gesticulé, y al hacerlo, pasé mi mano cerca de su cara”. El hombre se asustó y pensó que iba a ser golpeado. “Nunca olvidaré mis sentimientos de sorpresa, disgusto y vergüenza al ver a un hombre grande y poderoso con miedo a recibir lo que pensó sería un golpe dirigido a su rostro. Este hombre había sido entrenado para una degradación inferior a la esclavitud del animal más indefenso”, concluye Darwin.3 Irónicamente, como resultado de leer el libro titulado El origen del hombre que publicó Darwin treinta y dos años después, en el que aplicó a los seres humanos su teoría de la evolución, muchos de sus adeptos alrededor del mundo en el siglo veinte se convencieron de que los negros evolucionaron de los gorilas más fuertes. Y con eso justificaron el racismo, la opresión y hasta el genocidio de la tal raza inferior.4 Gracias a Dios, quien nos creó a todos iguales, muchísimos de esos darwinistas se arrepintieron. Pero aún hay muchas personas que, ¡en el umbral del juicio final!, no le han pedido a Dios que los perdone por semejante pecado mortal.5 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 Ana Pais, «“El viaje del Beagle” de Charles Darwin: 5 anécdotas poco conocidas de su recorrido por América del Sur», BBC News Mundo, 30 mayo 2019 En línea 8 marzo 2022; «Ana Pais», Editora digital senior, Reino Unido, Linkedin , En línea 8 marzo 2022; «Ana Pais, Uruguay», Beca Gabo periodismo cultural En línea 8 marzo 2022. 2 Ana Pais, «“El viaje del Beagle” de Charles Darwin». 3 Ibíd. 4 Ken Ham, «Darwin’s Garden» [El jardín de Darwin], 11 diciembre 2008, Traducción mía En línea 8 marzo 2022 (Capítulo 1 del libro One Race, One Blood: The Biblical Answer to Racism [Una sola raza, una sola sangre: La respuesta bíblica al racismo] por Ken Ham y A.

Dr. Karen James is a staff scientist at the Mount Desert Island Biological Laboratory in Maine. She is trained in genetics, and she applies her skills to environmental, conservation, and restoration research. In particular, Karen uses DNA to identify animals and plants, including those collected by citizen scientists for conservation and restoration projects. Karen spends her free time outside on the trails of Acadia National Park near where she lives. She does a lot of gardening, hiking, biking,  and cross country skiing to get as much time outdoors as possible. She received her PhD in Genetics from the University of Washington and conducted postdoctoral research at the Natural History Museum in London before joining the MDI Lab. Karen is also Co-Founder and Director of UK-based charity The HMS Beagle Trust which is working to rebuild the HMS Beagle and retrace the journey of Charles Darwin with a new generation of students and scientists. In this interview, Karen shares more about her life and science. 

In this first episode of the new series of the Clifftown Podcast I went in search of the last resting place of the world famous HMS Beagle, the ship that conveyed Charles Darwin around the world in a trip that changed science and society forever. It also happens to lie in the salt marsh near Southend. Of course, not all is so straight forward and the episode takes in the adventurous fabled history of local smuggler ‘Hard Apple' and the strange link between the small Essex hamlet of Pagelsham and Warren Beatty.

Charles Darwin (1809 -1882) est l'auteur de la «théorie de l'Évolution». En 1859, la publication de L'Origine des espèces eût l'effet d'un impact d'astéroïde dans la mare religieuse de cette époque. La plus grande révolution de l'histoire de la biologie a commencé... Dans cet épisode, l'explorateur Alexander Von Humboldt, le botaniste et entomologiste John Henslow et le géologue Charles Lyell, dont les explorations, les études et les théories ont beaucoup influencé le jeune Darwin. Alexander von Humboldt (1769 - 1859) est le «second découvreur de l'Amérique». Cet allemand, frère intrépide du fondateur de l'université de Berlin, était un mix entre De Vinci et Mike Horn pour faire simple;) Un esprit universel, qui remonté l'Orénoque en pirogue, escaladé le volcan Chimborazo (un volcan très spécial, cf épisodes volcans avec JM Bardintzeff), bravant bien des tempêtes au long cours... John Stevens Henslow obtient en 1822 la chaire de minéralogie de l'université de Cambridge. Ce religieux progressisite se passionne pour la botanique et l'entomologie. Henslow est un professeur très recherché. Son élève Charles Darwin lui doit son intérêt pour l'histoire naturelle. C'est grâce à Henslow que Darwin rencontre le capitaine Robert FitzRoy du HMS Beagle. Le géologue Charles Lyell expose vers 1830 une théorie très controversée: la terre aurait été façonnée lentement, pendant des millions d'années, par des forces toujours existantes (uniformitarisme). Cette vision s'oppose au catastrophisme soutenu par Cuvier. Selon le Français, la Terre avait été modelée par une série de catastrophes, tel le déluge, dans un laps de temps court. Cuvier was wrong... Lyell, ami proche de Charles Darwin, est l'un des premiers scientifiques reconnus à apporter son appui à L'Origine des espèces, à une époque où Darwin essuyait une grosse shitstorm...

The grandson of Erasmus Darwin and Josiah Wedgwood, he studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh and biology at Cambridge. He was recommended as a naturalist on HMS Beagle, which was bound on a long scientific survey expedition to South America and the South Seas (1831–36). His zoological and geological discoveries on the voyage resulted in numerous important publications and formed the basis of his theories of evolution. Seeing competition between individuals of a single species, he recognized that within a local population the individual bird, for example, with the sharper beak might have a better chance to survive and reproduce and that if such traits were passed on to new generations, they would be predominant in future populations. He saw this natural selection as the mechanism by which advantageous variations were passed on to later generations and less advantageous traits gradually disappeared. He worked on his theory for more than 20 years before publishing it in his famous On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection (1859). The book was immediately in great demand, and Darwin's intensely controversial theory was accepted quickly in most scientific circles; most opposition came from religious leaders. Though Darwin's ideas were modified by later developments in genetics and molecular biology, his work remains central to modern evolutionary theory. His many other important works included Variation in Animals and Plants Under Domestication (1868) and The Descent of Man… (1871). He was buried in Westminster Abbey.From https://www.britannica.com/summary/Charles-Darwin. For more information about Charles Darwin:Previously on The Quarantine Tapes:Isabella Rossellini about Darwin, at 09:50: https://quarantine-tapes.simplecast.com/episodes/the-quarantine-tapes-083-isabella-rosselliniMerve Emre about Darwin, at 20:35: https://quarantine-tapes.simplecast.com/episodes/the-quarantine-tapes-170-merve-emreMoshe Safdie about Darwin, at 14:05: https://quarantine-tapes.simplecast.com/episodes/the-quarantine-tapes-102-moshe-safdie“The Evolution of Charles Darwin”: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/the-evolution-of-charles-darwin-110234034/“The Darwin Collection”: https://www.nhm.ac.uk/our-science/departments-and-staff/library-and-archives/collections/darwin-collection.html“How Darwin Evolved: 25,540 Paper Fragments Tell the Story”: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/13/arts/design/charles-darwin-research-notes-hackers-project.html

Day Four of our coverage of The Darwin festival brings us to Bear Step Gallery in the heart of Shrewsbury Town. We are hear to listen to a lecture by Bibbs Cameron titled Darwin & HMS Beagle A Journey Of A Lifetime.  Bibbs talks about the very famous voyage on the Beagle, the journey of a lifetime (as titled) where Charles discovered so much that it changed the face of science forever. This lecture looks at some of the finer details of the voyage that you may not have know. Bibbs you are a star and I always enjoy hearing you talk. My apologies for the technical error but we made it through and this sounds fantastic.

In this week's episode, we take a look at how Charles Darwin began his journey, which eventually led to the formulation of his theory of Evolution. We also take a look at the theories of evolution that existed before Charles Darwin's time. Read our blog post Would you rather read about his biography? Click here: Charles Darwin.

He thought that if medicine did not interest Darwin, he should become a parson [Citation1]. So, he sent Darwin to Cambridge University, so that he could do a BA degree and become a parson. But in Cambridge University, too, Darwin spent most of his time pursuing his hobbies. His most important hobby was collecting beetles, which was a big craze at that time. But besides that, he also loved riding horses and shooting. But besides spending a lot of time on his hobbies, he disregarded them and started studying whenever exams neared. Therefore, he could pass his BA degree on time. During his time at Cambridge University, he came to like the classes of his botany professor, Revd. John Stevens Henslow. Henslow would eventually become Darwin's mentor. Desire to travel After his final exams were over, Darwin read several books. One of these books was the personal narrative of a German explorer called Alexander von Humboldt. Humbolt had spent five years traveling extensively on the American continent. He then described his travel from a scientific point of view. After reading this book, Darwin decided to travel the world, and contribute to science. The place he chose for this purpose was the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean. But his trip got postponed for a year. So, he got sad. But his botany professor Henslow recommended him for an expedition which was arranged by the geologist Adam Sedgwick. So, Sedgwick took Darwin with him to the expedition in Wales, England. The expedition lasted two weeks. After he returned home from the expedition, he found a letter addressed to him. The Voyage that changed everything At the recommendation of Darwin's botany professor Henslow, the captain of the ship called HMS Beagle decided to take Darwin on his voyage. HMS Beagle was preparing for its second voyage to South America to survey the land and water bodies there. The ship needed someone to investigate the geology of these areas. This is the position that Darwin was supposed to fill in. The ship and its crew, along with Darwin, set sail in 1831. Darwin was just 22 years old at that time. The 5-year-voyage (A map of this voyage is attached below) turned out to be a boon for Darwin. He visited four continents and collected countless samples of the plants, animals, birds, and fossils there. After he returned to England, he gave these samples to zoologists, so that they could examine them. Darwin's natural history collections proved extremely useful. Darwin started publishing the reports of the analysis of the samples, provided by the zoologists, as a book called 'Zoology of the Voyage of HMS Beagle.' He even got a grant of £1,000 for publishing these books. Darwin planned to publish several volumes of this book. His voyage, the samples he had collected during the voyage, and the reports of these samples provided by zoologists helped him understand a lot about evolution. So, he started working on formulating a theory about evolution. Darwin worked too hard to finish his books, as well as formulate his own theory of evolution at the same time. But due to the resulting stress, he got sick and was bedridden. He started trembling and vomiting, suffered from stomach pain, and severe boils started appearing on his body. Even though he got better with time, these symptoms reoccurred again and again in his life, whenever he got overstressed. His disease was never diagnosed or cured. Evolution theories before Darwin's time Even before Darwin proposed his theory of evolution, there were two theories of evolution that were famous. But they had a lot of opposition.  The first of these theories was the 'Theory of Acquired Characteristics' or 'Lamarckism.' It was proposed by Jean-Baptiste Lamarck [Citation2], a French zoologist. He proposed, that when environments change, organisms change their behavior, and as a result, the organs of these organisms change as well. These organisms then pass on these changes to their offspring.  The second theory was proposed by none other than Charles Darwin's paternal grandfather, Erasmus Darwin. In his book called 'Zooomia,' [Citation3] Erasmus argues that all organisms undergo changes constantly, which their offspring inherit from them.

Darwin's Theory of Natural Selection has served as a basis to this day for the reasoning behind evolution. It has assisted us to answer our largest questions concerning how and why species look the way they do. In this episode, we explore Darwin's voyage on the HMS Beagle, the five major points on his theory of natural selection, and Lamarck's views on evolution and why they are incorrect.

Glad to be out of Gotham's Christmas nightmare, Sean and Cody are transported in chains to the marshlands of early 19th century England, where a Dickensian smorgasbord of social and environmental commentary is ready to envelop them like dust from Miss Haversham's wedding gown. In the 1946 David Lean-directed Great Expectations, an adaptation of the Dickens novel, pauper tween Pip (John Mills) lets an escaped convict stuff his face with one of his sister's meat pies, then finds himself the plaything of an eccentric matriarch who seems to want to fix him up with her bratty niece Estella (Jean Simmons). Ultimately Pip inherits a fortune under mysterious circumstances, but he's not allowed to know who his sugar daddy is. Environmental issues discussed include the tidelands and marshlands of Kent, England and their role in British history, pollution and social problems in early Victorian-era London, the environmental dimensions of prisons and incarceration as social engineering, the colonization of Australia, and more. Why did the hosts decide, within minutes of starting to watch this film, that it was an “environmental movie” that had to be on the show? What's a “gammon”? Why did William the Conqueror give up trying to take over the Kent marshes? Who was the Aldington Gang and why were they forced to turn to a life of crime? Was Dickens an environmentalist? Why did the British start dumping their convicts in Australia? What diseases could you catch on a prison ship? What happened to the HMS Beagle after Darwin made his famous voyage aboard her? Is it possible to get a Ph.D. in history without ever reading Foucault? Was Alec Guinness hot in his youth? How did Batman (John Batman of Melbourne, Australia that is) make his second appearance in a row on a Green Screen episode? Are you now or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party, or a Romulan? All these questions and more are ready to hijack your paddlewheel steamer in this Dickensian episode of Green Screen.

Welcome to My AP Biology Thoughts podcast, my name is Saarim and I am your host for episode #1 called Darwin's Early Life. Today I will be discussing the early life, academia, and internal turmoil of English naturalist Charles Darwin, who is notable for his scientific theory of evolution by natural selection. We all know the name, Charles Darwin, and his idea that all living things developed and adapted overtime as a result of random mutations which gave these organisms traits suitable for their lifestyles. But how did he come up with this idea? The impacts of his theory are enormous as they really show us where all living things come from and the theory even created divisions in society amongst Darwinists/modernists and fundamentalists. But let's go all the way back to explore the origins of this theory. Segment 1: Introduction to Darwin's Early Life And AcademiaTalking about Darwin in Academia, his experiences in school, transition from medicine to religion, to naturalism and voyage on HMS Beagle, observations from trip/significance, and internal struggle deciding to publish work Credit New England Complex System Institute and Eric Guise's AP Biology videos for the following info Darwin Info Born in Shrewsbury, England; attended Shrewsbury School Interested in nature since young age - beetle collection Father wanted him to be doctor - went to Edinburg Medical School - found lectures boring and couldn't stand watching surgeries done without pain killers (left med school after 2 years) Father arranged from him to be priest/clergyman - earned bachelor of arts degree from Cambridge; continued interest in nature Became friends with two professors at Cambridge - geologist and John Henslow (botanist) Around the world sailing trip on HMS Beagle being arranged by Royal Navy - John Henslow recommended Darwin as the trips naturalist Darwin left for a 5 year journey - wrote down all his observations, etc.  Segment 2: Example of Darwin's Observation During His JourneyBrazil Visited tropical rainforest: great diversity - began thinking about diversity of life and the creation of different species Observed animals eating and chasing each other - animals struggled to survive Argentina Observed how the grass where the cattle grazed smaller than grass that cattle had been introduced with - idea of something allowing different types of grass to survive Tierra del Fuego Saw how well suited native were to their harsh environments https://www.cake.co/conversations/K2sNdvV/the-last-people-tierra-del-fuego-the-island-of-souls (https://www.cake.co/conversations/K2sNdvV/the-last-people-tierra-del-fuego-the-island-of-souls) Chile Rocks in the south were higher above sea level than the same rocks in north Earthquake: rocks had been lifted and marine organisms hgh up and dry - changes in environments = changes in organisms Galapagos Studied 3 main species: finches, tortoises, and the marine iguanas Finches Saw a different type of finch species with different types of beaks on each island depending on the conditions of the specific island - finches with strong beaks that ate large nuts (to open them); finches with beaks designed for just cracking small nuts; finches that ate fruits and insects had different beaks Darwin developed idea that birds from one species separated to different islands and adapted to new environments https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwin%27s_finches Tortoises Looked different - different neck sizes depending on the island - must have adapted to get food: long neck (higher vegetation); short neck (lower vegetation) https://www.mun.ca/biology/scarr/4270_Galapagos_tortoises.html Marine iguanas Lizards ability to swim was unique - adapted to survive on scarce food on the islands https://galapagosconservation.org.uk/wildlife/marine-iguana/ At this point, I will talk about his internal struggle he faced when deciding to publish his observations/theory Waited 23...
