The Isle of Champagne

I\u27m Pommery 2nd The King [Verse 1, Pommery]I\u27m Pommery Second the King And this is the day of my birth.I\u27ve had so much to drink It has caused me to think that I govern the whole of the earth.I\u27m a man of the style that\u27s self-made. I started in life as a Prince.I\u27ve studied the ologies of all the colleges And I haven\u27t done anything since.[Chorus, Moet & Chandon with Tenors]I\u27m a man of the style that\u27s self made. I started in life as a Prince.I studied the ologies of all the colleges And I haven\u27t done anything since. [Verse 2, Pommery] I entered a college at ten And studied until quite a wreck. The professors all said That the brains in my head were so heavy they\u27d fracture my neck. At football I took the first prize. At billiards my shots were massé. I could translate from Plato about a potato Inquite a phenomenal way. [Verse 3, Pommery] At twenty I finished at school And then I was called to the throne. Though I\u27m King of the isle I don\u27t own a mile and whatever\u27s mine isn\u27t my own. It\u27s a terrible thing to be King. If your crown isn\u27t backed up by wealth. Oh Long Live the King is a sad thing to sing When your income consists of your health.O\u27er Hill and DaleO\u27er hill and dale, in rill and vale, all sing the gathering of grape and vine.We dance and sing the harvest in, The harvest of the bubbling new-made wine.O\u27er hill and dale, in rill and vale, All sing the gathering of grape and wine.We dance and sing the harvest in, the harvest of the new-made wine.O\u27er hill and dale, in rill and vale, On sunny mountain sides we roam.To strip the vines of juicy grapes and rare all and press without a thought of care. Then homeward bound our songs resound, Our hearts are ever light and gay.We\u27ve done now with the busy hours of day, The busy, busy hours of day..... Oh, Dream of Life[Priscilla] Oh, dream of life, forever rife, I\u27m glad and breathe once more. I know not how with awful stride We safely reached the shore. Oh, dreadful night, sad was our plight, We thought that all must die. Our sailors worked, no duty shirked, And each with each did vie. The dreadful waves o\u27er-whelmed us, all our efforts were in vain. We crashed upon the shore, Our ship was no more. How bright it all seems.I live once more. Ah! Oh, dream of life forever rife, I\u27m glad and breathe once more. I know not how with awful strife We safely reached the shore. Now escaped from the ocean, With what words of devotion. Saved from peril and pain, Ah! Saved from peril and pain. [Kissengen] (joins Priscilla on line five) Their efforts were in vain, yes all in vain. They crashed upon the shore, was seen no more. How bright all seems, She lives once more. Ah! Oh, dream of life, forever rife, She\u27s glad and breathes once more. She knew not how with awful strife They safely reached the shore. Now escaped from the ocean, with what words of devotion. Saved from peril and pain. Ah, she\u27s saved from peril and pain. [Chorus]Now escaped from the ocean, with what words of devotion. (Priscilla, Kissengen, and Chorus all start the following verses at the same time) [Priscilla] With hearts full of emotion, From peril and pain we\u27re saved. Ah! Saved from peril and pain. Ah! Saved from peril and pain. With hearts full of emotion, From peril and pain we are saved, yes saved.... [Kissengen] With hearts full of emotion, From peril and pain we\u27re saved. Ah! She\u27s saved from peril and pain. From peril they\u27re saved, yes saved.... [Chorus] With hearts full of emotion, From peril and pain we\u27re saved. Ah! Ah! Now escaped from the emotion, With what words of devotion. With hearts full of emotion, yes, saved.... The North Pole[Binnacle] Now we listen mates to a story of the sea--- [Soprano & Alto] Oh list to wanderer bold! [Binnacle] I\u27ll tell you of wonders happening to me. In the Arctic seas where the icebergs freeze And you shiver, shiver, shiver with the cold. [Soprano & Alto] Where the weather is fickle as a soft icicle And you shiver, shiver, shiver with the cold. [Binnacle] I sailed from the port of Milwaukee, To discover the old North Pole. We cleared Montana in the southern sea.And they blew Cape Horn when they summoned us to tea. That\u27s the truth upon my soul. [Soprano & Alto] That\u27s the truth upon his soul. [Binnacle] We passed over Niagara falls, Where the whales and the elephants roam. And the ship lay to off Kalamazoo, On a voyage to the Northern Pole. [Soprano & Alto] Then shout hurrah! for the sailor bold and the wonders he did see. But please explain why the ship lay to? [Binnacle] Why because she couldn\u27t lay three. [Verse 2]We sailed due north thro\u27 Kentucky\u27s mammoth cave--- [Soprano & Alto] Oh list to the wanderer bold! [Binnacle] We then was struck by a mighty tidal wave. And a herd of whales jumped up on the sails And hung by the yards a wagging of their tails. [Soprano & Alto] What a horrid herd of whales thus to hang upon the sails with a wagging, wagging, wagging of their tails. [Binnacle] We threw a rope round the old North Pole, Which stands on the lee of Maine. The ship got wrecked off that awful coast, We had nothing to eat but quail on toast. That mem\u27ry gives me pain. [Soprano & Alto] That mem\u27ry gives him pain. [Binnacle] We met a tribe of bunko men, Who captured ev\u27ry soul. But I made them grieve for I took French leave On a voyage to the Northern Pole. [Soprano & Alto] Then shout hurrah! for the sailor bold who was clever enough to vanish. But please explain why you took French leave? [Binnacle] Why because I couldn\u27t walk Spanish. No Mercy He Need Expect No mercy he need expect from these four elect, We’re done brown.For though he has been so slick, We’ll yet make him sick for his scurvy trick And his crown.There is no denying that we are rattled…About privileges for which we’ve but battled… And considerations we had thought settled, but ‘tis not the time to say sca—...For as conspirators we must dissemble, Put brakes on our feelings before King and QueenJust now with the spirit o’er all those assembled t’would folly be surely to say what we mean. Here’s to Old Champagne [Pommery]The best of friends must part, alas! I’ll now say adieu, I’ll now say adieu…And ev’ry swain and lass I’ll pledge in a final glass.Never again to see you more, no never again. For here I remain,... Though all of you depart… to some distant shore…I’ll continue to reign right here,And stick to my dear champagne.Then here’s to old champagne, champagne, champagne, champagne.A parting cup we’ll drain, we’ll drain, we’ll drain.Alone in my domain I’ll reign, I’ll reign.I’ll get an ever-lasting jag; then here’s to old champagne

The Broadband XMM-Newton and NuSTAR X-ray Spectra of Two Ultraluminous X-ray Sources in the Galaxy IC 342

We present results for two Ultraluminous X-ray Sources (ULXs), IC 342 X-1 and IC 342 X-2, using two epochs of XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observations separated by $\sim$7 days. We observe little spectral or flux variability above 1 keV between epochs, with unabsorbed 0.3--30 keV luminosities being $1.04^{+0.08}_{-0.06} \times 10^{40}$ erg s$^{-1}$ for IC 342 X-1 and $7.40\pm0.20 \times 10^{39}$ erg s$^{-1}$ for IC 342 X-2, so that both were observed in a similar, luminous state. Both sources have a high absorbing column in excess of the Galactic value. Neither source has a spectrum consistent with a black hole binary in low/hard state, and both ULXs exhibit strong curvature in their broadband X-ray spectra. This curvature rules out models that invoke a simple reflection-dominated spectrum with a broadened iron line and no cutoff in the illuminating power-law continuum. X-ray spectrum of IC 342 X-1 can be characterized by a soft disk-like black body component at low energies and a cool, optically thick Comptonization continuum at high energies, but unique physical interpretation of the spectral components remains challenging. The broadband spectrum of IC 342 X-2 can be fit by either a hot (3.8 keV) accretion disk, or a Comptonized continuum with no indication of a seed photon population. Although the seed photon component may be masked by soft excess emission unlikely to be associated with the binary system, combined with the high absorption column, it is more plausible that the broadband X-ray emission arises from a simple thin blackbody disk component. Secure identification of the origin of the spectral components in these sources will likely require broadband spectral variability studies.Comment: 12 pages, 11 figures, 5 Tables, Accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journa

NuSTAR and Swift observations of the black hole candidate XTE J1908+094 during its 2013 outburst

The black hole candidate XTE J1908+094 went into outburst for the first time since 2003 in October 2013. We report on an observation with the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) and monitoring observations with Swift during the outburst. NuSTAR caught the source in the soft state: the spectra show a broad relativistic iron line, and the light curves reveal a ~40 ks flare with the count rate peaking about 40% above the non-flare level and with significant spectral variation. A model combining a multi-temperature thermal component, a power-law, and a reflection component with an iron line provides a good description of the NuSTAR spectrum. Although relativistic broadening of the iron line is observed, it is not possible to constrain the black hole spin with these data. The variability of the power-law component, which can also be modeled as a Comptonization component, is responsible for the flux and spectral change during the flare, suggesting that changes in the corona (or possibly continued jet activity) are the likely cause of the flare.Comment: 9 pages, 6 figures, 3 tables, accepted for publication in Ap

Confirmation of a high magnetic field in GRO J1008-57

GRO J1008–57 is a high-mass X-ray binary for which several claims of a cyclotron resonance scattering feature near 80 keV have been reported. We use NuSTAR, Suzaku, and Swift data from its giant outburst of 2012 November to confirm the existence of the 80 keV feature and perform the most sensitive search to date for cyclotron scattering features at lower energies. We find evidence for a 78^(+3)_(-2) keV line in the NuSTAR and Suzaku data at >4σ significance, confirming the detection using Suzaku alone by Yamamoto et al. A search of both the phase-averaged and phase-resolved data rules out a fundamental at lower energies with optical depth larger than 5% of the 78 keV line. These results indicate that GRO J1008–57 has a magnetic field of 6.7 × 10^(12)(1 + z) G, the highest among known accreting pulsars
