A shortcut is a way to get one or more things done quicker, and if you have ever tried to play a technically precise game of Magic, you will know there's a lot of things that can be done quicker.Join Bryan, Charles, and Marcos as we go over the tournament shortcuts found in the Magic Tournament Rules. These shortcuts are the default behavior in many situations that may arise in a game of Magic, and are designed to reduce ambiguity and protect players from other players that might want to use that ambiguity to their advantage. We go into detail for each one, even the wibbly-wobbly-timey wimey ones.

Cowabunga Judges! It's another release notes episode, and Bryan, Charles, and Marcos are here to cover new cards, rules interactions, and perhaps sneak in a pop culture reference or two while they're at it. Keep an eye out for those Mutagen canisters though before they disappear. Um... Alliance. Okay, that should do it. Stay tuned to the end for a special news bulletin from Charles regarding tournament fraud, and try to keep count of exactly how many other IPs we can mention while discussing everyone's favorite turtles.

The L1 certification process is relatively straightforward. Mix up some rules, sift in a light dusting of policy, bake for a couple of prereleases weekend at 70% of 25 questions on an exam, and BAM you're now an L1. But as a new L1, you might be wondering, now what? Join Bryan, Charles, and Marcos as we discuss a list of things new L1s often ask after they pass their exam, or should ask, but don't know that they should. We discuss: - Finding other judges- How to find other events outside your LGS - How to apply to those events- What your responsibility is now to the Magic community- What is a "purple fox"- And other topics that your mentor might have forgot to tell you.

Noel catches up with Barry Privett, the lead singer of Carbon Leaf. The band released their first full-length album in ten years, Time Is The Playground, last year to rave reviews. Carbon Leaf gained national recognition performing "The Boxer," on the American Music Awards, making them the first unsigned act to perform on the award show. Their hit, "Life Less Ordinary", reached the top five on the Billboard's adult alternative chart in 2004. They contributed six songs to the Curious George 2 soundtrack.

There's only one band I've seen more live in concert than Carbon Leaf. It's a FUN time (one y'all should experience). Jesse Humphrey and Jon Markel from the band join us to discuss the self-titled debut from Rage Against the Machine (and, no, Carbon Leaf does NOT sound like Rage).Plenty of other discussion including counterfeit Carbon Leaf t-shirts, Freebird, Fenway, "you have to play the new songs," Wilco opening bands, Grammys for 1993 & 1994, free jazzy, who is E Double, and is it a dying cat or a police alarm?Check out Carbon Leaf at:     https://www.carbonleaf.com/Check out After the Gig with Jesse Humphrey at:  https://jessehumphrey.com/afterthegigCheck out Rage Against the Machine at:  https://www.ratm.com/Check out other episodes at RecordsRevisitedPodcast.com or one all your favorite podcast providers like Apple Podcasts, Castbox, iHeartMedia, and Spotify.

Hey there, music-lovers. Welcome to Why Music Matters, a podcast where we examine the power and influence that music can wield in our lives. I'm your host, Jeff Miers. On today's episode, I'm joined in the studio by two members of a band that has spent the last 30-plus years embodying the very definition of “indie” music. Barry Privett and Terry Clark are two-fifths of Carbon Leaf, the Richmond, VA band that has spent the past three decades crafting a body of work that blends elements of rock, Americana, pop, and folk, and performing that work to devout audiences in excess of 3,500 times. Along the way, they became the first unsigned, independent band to perform on the American Music Awards, shared stages with the Dave Matthews Band, John Mayer and Jason Mraz, among many others, and have consistently taken us back to a time when eclecticism and diversity within a band's sound were considered a positive. During our chat, which took place on the afternoon of their late April performance at Buffalo Iron Works, Barry and Terry spoke freely about their journey, the importance off embracing the moment with a sense of urgency in both life and music, and the trials and triumphs of a life spent being truly independent.

TRAVEL WITH CELTIC INVASION VACATIONS Every year, I take a small group of Celtic music fans on the relaxing adventure of a lifetime. We don't see everything. Instead, we stay in one area. We get to know the region through its culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos. In 2026, we're traveling to the Celtic nation of Galicia in Spain. We'll dive deep into the history and legends of the Galician Celts, uncovering their connections to Ireland, Scotland, and beyond. We'll walk the same lands where Celtic warriors once roamed, hear the myths passed down through generations, and experience the magic of authentic Galician Celtic music, alive with passion and history. This isn't just a trip—it's a journey into the heart of a Celtic culture unlike any other. Will you join us?

Thank you for your podcast. I discovered Celtic music in the 1990s in France with a french band that has since disappeared, Tonynara. I could be wrong but I don't think I've ever heard it on your podcast. This group remains a reference for me and I can only advise you to play one or two songs at the next opportunity. Thanks !” Caleb Cotter sent a photo: "Hi Marc, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for featuring the Irish Lassies' music this year. You've introduced me to so many incredible artists, and I truly appreciate that! I've also been really enjoying your Dancing with Hobbits album—it's fantastic! You definitely nailed it with that project, and you should be incredibly proud of it. You've always encouraged us to send over recommendations, so I wanted to share one with you: My friend's band, The Mad Ferret from Edinburgh, UK. They're amazing, and I think you'd really enjoy their music. Here's one of my favorite tracks that I think you'll love. Also, the Lassies would like to send you something in the mail as a thank you. Could you please share an address where we can send it? Wishing you a wonderful New Year and thank you again for everything you do for the Celtic music community!” Patrick Rieger emailed photos: "Hi Marc, Some more celtic musicians from the family's renaissance festival season, this time the Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival. Pittsburgh is a small faire, but the musicians are still great. We could only spend one day there, so we didn't see them all. We did get to see The Reelin' Rogues, The Craic Show, Sarah the Harpist (Sarah Marie Mullen), and just as we were leaving at the end of the day, Magnus and Maggie. Despite the musicians and us seeing each other one or two times a year, we still get to be friends. Big smiles. Daniel from the Craic Show wanting to clink glasses at the Pirates Pub. Sarah and my wife Gayle got into a conversation about environmental issues.”  

Best known for the 2004 hit “Life Less Ordinary,” the indie rock band Carbon Leaf has been at it since the early 1990s. That's when they got their start in Richmond, Virginia, alongside the likes of the Dave Matthews Band, Cracker, GWAR, Fighting Gravity, the Pat McGee Band, and more. The band just released its much-anticipated new album, “Time is the Playground,” Carbon Leaf's first full-length record in a decade. The album blends nostalgic storytelling with nuanced, folk-infused indie rock, and is a brilliant rumination on time, love and personal growth that features both rediscovered musical fragments and brand new material. We recently caught up with Carbon Leaf founder Barry Privett on The Load Out music podcast to discuss all that is Carbon Leaf.

Carbon Leaf has been playing on stage since 1992 with over 3,500 shows under their belts. Their 2004 album Indian summer was a hug success with songs like "Life Less Ordinary" and "What about everything?". The band is releasing their new album Time Is The Playground on September 27th and their lead singer Barry Privett was nice enough to stop by the show! Barry and Doc talk about the last time he was on the show, what happened with the band over the last 5 years, the making of the new album, 1983 and so much more! Meanwhile, Doc and Mike talk about the possibility of eating ortolans, being on never ending cruises and eating at generic food court Chinese restaurants. Listen now!

Carbon Leaf have been around since the 90's and their newest record, "Time is the Playground," is out on September 27th. It's everything you want in a great pop/rock record. We sat down with lead singer/songwriter Barry Privett about the record, what makes a great mix tape song and, of course, the satanic panic of the 80s.For more information, you can check out Carbon Leaf's website, or you can follow them on Facebook.

After a decade hiatus, the outdoor concert series Groovin' in the Garden will be returning to Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden in Lakeside this summer. The initial event will be headlined by Carbon Leaf, a Richmond band that plays alt-country, Celtic, and folk-infused indie rock. That concert, on May 30, will mark the first time since 2013 that the outdoor series will have taken place at the venue. Last year, the garden held one "Groovin'" show, headlined by Gregory Alan Isakov and Lucius, which sold out and confirmed the Garden's plans to bring back the Groovin' series. “The decision is especially...Article LinkSupport the show

On the 7 June, 1899 - Elizabeth Bowen was born in Dublin. She was a novelist and short-story writer, best known for her novel, The Last September. On the 8 June 1917 - The Butte, Montana, mine disaster fell: there were 168 dead, including many Irish, when fire broke out in a mineshaft. Butte was the US's foremost mining town at the time, with a population of 50,000, a quarter of whom were Irish, mostly from County Cork. On the 10 June, 1944 – was the death of Frank Ryan, prominent leader of the Irish Republican Army, who led 200 Irishmen to Spain to fight against Franco. It is said that the character “Liam Devlin” in the Jack Higgins thriller The Eagle Has Landed, is based on Frank Ryan. On the 15 June 1919 - Captain Jack Alcock and Lt. Arthur Brown completed the first transatlantic flight, when their Vickers Vimy biplane landed near Clifden, Co. Galway, after a 2,500km (1,500 miles) flight from St. John's Newfoundland. On the 16 June, 1904 - James Joyce first went walking with Nora Barnacle; it became the date on which everything takes place in Ulysses and is known as Bloomsday.

Pick one up at any of our 367 locations; the complete list of all distribution points, sorted by zip code, is on OhioIANews.com. It is free, or you can see and read the interactive copy on the website as well, with more to the story: more text, more pics, stories that didn’t make the print edition and LARGER Print. May was a fun issue to compile and read. Our cover features the work of Cartoon Saloon, the multi-Academy, Golden Globe and BAFTA nominated Kilkenny based genius’, the Inner View is within. We have Part II of the former West Wing actor Melissa Fitzgerald’s Inner View story; Did you know that potato a day keeps the doctor away? Dr Peters gives us the (Kerry) gold. Toledo Irish meet & greet with Men from the Bog; so many May memorials, especially the anniversaries of the Easter Rising Firing Squads administered to most of its leaders, and the ten Hunger Striker’s deaths is not least among them. Former Celtic Women star Eabhan Mc Mahon’s first solo CD, Wildflower, is reviewed (Hint: it’s really good!), as well as Black 47 Founder and voice, Larry Kirwan’s new Book, Rockaway Blue which is also very good. Ever have an Irish Mexican Fusion? Well, the recipe is inside, and Dan Coughlin writes a very funny Home Sweet Home, and the stories discovered in the line at a wake, while waiting to pay respects. Can they Ban the Irish Language? Thin Lizzy makes an appearance in Ireland, and so does the electric car; and now, more than ever, it is time for an Irish Unity Referendum. Of course, we have the Kid’s Craic and Colour of Ireland Kid’s Contest pages, and the Irish Crossword on Patriots of Ireland, inside too. So very sad to see that Fitzerald’s Bed & Breakfast is up for sale. Certainly, COVID lingers. So, what happened on this day in Irish history? 8 May 1567 - Shane O’Neill of Tyrone was defeated by Hugh O’Donnell at the Battle of Faretsmore, Co. Donegal. 8 May 2007 - ‘Devolution Day’ in Northern Ireland: DUP Leader Ian Paisley and Sinn Fein Leader Martin McGuiness took office in a restored Northern Ireland Assembly. 14 May 1893 - George “McIrish” McElroy was born in Donnybrook, County Dublin.

But I’d rather hear the gospel from the priest, so please welcome Cleveland St. Patrick’s Gaelic Football Club president, Vincent Beach. Hello Vince! Welcome to the iIrish Songs, Stories & Shenanigans podcast. It is good to see you again, even if it is via Zoom, as we make the best of things. Tell me about Gaelic Football in Ireland, America, Cleveland - Origins, mission, goals and benefits. How has it gone, esp during COVID? Is Cleveland’s the typical Irish immigrant sports story? Differences? What do you dream about when you wake up for the team? Your work with the GAA, to me, is about a bit of a dream - but perhaps unity and hope, today and for the future – tell me about the kids program too - hat are you were aiming for with your work? If we were having this conversation three years from today, what would have to happen for you to feel happy with your progress? We always ask, any stories from the road, but the road now is a distant memory – still, any stories? What do you do besides lead the GAA in Cleveland and the Midwest? Woodie Guthrie said, ‘You write what you see’. Has that held true for you as a leader? What did you see in the GAA that made you choose to take on the leadership of the GAA? Tell us about the tournament tomorrow What will happen and when, and what else is available onsite? What are you reading or watching? Any reccs? So, what happens now for you? All podcasts past and present can be downloaded from iTunes, WHKRadio/local podcasts or OhioIANews.com. I hope you will Subscribe (it’s free) and listen to them whenever you wish. Your support helps us stay alive, please subscribe! If you have a moment, and wish to offer any feedback, it would be most welcome.  For example: Would you follow the podcast more if a video option were also available? Who would you like to see interviewed on the podcast? Every month I beg and beg our readers and organizations from throughout Ohio and the surrounding states to send us their events.  Rarely do they.  I won’t give up.   The invitation stands; send them to us at jobrien@ohioianews.com. There is no charge to have them listed in the OhioIANews. We want to feature all of Ohio, and the surrounding states too. Let us know what’s the craic in vibrant Irish America, so we can share it with our audiences. Do you know a writer who lives in the Greater Cincinnati, Pittsburgh or Detroit area?

There are many more songs and stories; I hope we will write new ones - of joy, of unification.  Here, and across the pond. We are closer to a One Ireland than we have been in more than 800 years.  Let’s unite for America, too. We’ll save those songs and stories for next time, when we release Podcast30 on Friday May 21st, with guest Irish Consul Kevin Byrne. Whelp, We’ve done what we can for this week.  Tomorrow is another day, and another chance to write the future, we want to live in. As always, I end with a bit of the Irish: Nuair a stadann an ceol, stadann an rince Which means: When the music stops, so does the dance. Most of us go to our grave with our music still inside of us.  Don’t let it happen to you. Grace us with your music. Now more than ever, wider audiences need to dance to all the beauty around us. Hope to see you tomorrow at the Tournament. Thank you listening, and for allowing me to share my stories with you. Please share yours, with me. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

TRANSCRIPT OF AUDIO From the Cumberland Gap to the Atlantic Ocean, this is Virginia Water Radio for the week of February 1, 2021. MUSIC – ~12 sec – instrumental That’s part of “Directional,” by the Richmond, Va., band Carbon Leaf, from their 1995 album, “Meander.”  In Richmond, the 2021 Virginia General Assembly has been considering over 1600 bills and resolutions as it sets directions for the Commonwealth’s laws, policies, and budget. This is Virginia Water Radio’s annual episode giving youa chance to imagine being an Assembly member, and to consider how you’d vote on some of this year’s water-related measures.  I’ll give brief descriptions of each of five measures, based on information from the Virginia Legislative Information System as of January 29.  You’ll have a few seconds of a ticking clock sound to decide if you would vote for or against the idea, and then I’ll give the measure’s status, also as of January 29.No. 1.  House of Delegates Joint Resolution 556is a proposed constitutional amendment stating, in part, that “In the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies, it is the policy of the Commonwealth to follow the principles of environmental justice, including the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of every person regardless of race, color, national origin, or income.”  [SOUND – ~2 sec – ticking]  This resolution was in a House committee. No. 2.  Senate Bill 1291 would require that any application for a water-withdrawal permit must include a water-auditing plan and a leak-detection and -repair plan.  [SOUND – ~2 sec – ticking]  This bill had passed the Senate and moved to the House. No. 3.  House Bill 1983 would set conditions for water-protection permit applicants who are seeking mitigation credits for impacts to wetlands or streams, to purchase such credits from a mitigation bank not located in the sub-watershed where the impacts occur.  [SOUND – ~2 sec – ticking]  This bill had passed the House and was in a Senate committee. No. 4.  House Bill 1937, a complicated measure called the “Green New Deal Act,” would, among other things, set a moratorium on new fossil-fuel projects, establish requirements for percentages of electricity generation from renewable sources, require a state Climate Action Plan, set a goal to reduce building energy consumption by 36 percent by 2036, and promote environmental justice in various ways.  [SOUND – ~2 sec – ticking]  The bill was in a House committee. And No. 5.  House Bill 2265 would repeal several previous acts by the General Assembly that promoted renewable energy and called for regulating carbon emissions from fossil fuel-based electricity plants.  [SOUND – ~2 sec – ticking]  The bill was in a House committee. This short game certainly doesn’t capture the scope of the General Assembly’s potential impacts on a subject as complicated, connected, and vital as water.  These measures all involve more details than you heard here, and many other significant measures are also under consideration.  The General Assembly’s Web site, virginiageneralassembly.gov, has tools to help you get more information and express your opinions to Assembly members.  The 2021 General Assembly is scheduled to adjourn on February 11, so now’s the time. Thanks to Carbon Leaf for permission to use this week’s music, and we close with about 10 more seconds of “Directional.” MUSIC – ~ 11 sec – instrumental SHIP’S BELL Virginia Water Radio is produced by the Virginia Water Resources Research Center, part of Virginia Tech’s College of Natural Resources and Environment.  For more Virginia water sounds, music, or information, visit us online at virginiawaterradio.org, or call the Water Center at (540) 231-5624.  Thanks to Stewart Scales for his banjo version of Cripple Creek to open and close this show.  In Blacksburg, I’m Alan Raflo, thanking you for listening, and wishing you health, wisdom, and good water.

EXTRA INFORMATION ABOUT LEGISLATION MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Following are Virginia Legislative Information System (LIS) summaries of the one resolution and four bills mentioned in this episode, as of January 29, 2021, accessed at http://lis.virginia.gov/.  The resolution and bill numbers are hyperlinked to the respective LIS pages for each measure. 1.  House Joint Resolution 556 - Constitutional amendment; environmental justice (first reference).  “Section 5. Environmental justice.  In the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies, it is the policy of the Commonwealth to follow the principles of environmental justice, including the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of every person regardless of race, color, national origin, or income. Further, it is the policy of the Commonwealth to ensure that no population, especially minority, low-income, or historically economically disadvantaged communities, faces higher levels or greater impacts of pollution and climate change than other populations.” 2.  Senate Bill 1291 - Va. Water Protection Permit; withdrawal of surface water or ground water, plans for water auditing, leak detection.  “Requires that any application for a permit to withdraw surface water or ground water include a water-auditing plan and a leak-detection and -repair plan that comply with regulations adopted by the State Water Control Board pursuant to the provisions of the bill.” 3.  House Bill 1983 - Wetland and stream mitigation banks; proximity of impacted site.  “Provides that when a water protection permit applicant is required to purchase wetland or stream mitigation bank credits but no credits are available (either (i) in any mitigation provider's primary service area or (ii) at a cost of less than 200 percent of the price of credits available from a fund dedicated to achieving no net loss of wetland acreage and functions), the applicant may purchase or use credits from a mitigation provider's secondary service area.  The bill provides certain requirements that the permit applicant must comply with in order to purchase or use such credits from a secondary service area, including minimum tree canopy requirements.”  [Virginia Water Radio note: The bill defines “secondary service area” as “the area outside the primary service area but within the same physiographic province in which the bank is located and any adjacent physiographic province within the same river watershed.”] 4.  House Bill 1937 - Green New Deal Act, establishes a moratorium, effective January 1, 2022, etc.  “Establishes a moratorium, effective January 1, 2022, on approval by any state agency or political subdivision of any approval required for (i) electric generating facilities that generate fossil fuel energy through the combustion of a fossil fuel resource; (ii) import or export terminals for fossil fuel resources; (iii) certain maintenance activities relating to an import or export terminal for a fossil fuel resource; (iv) gathering lines or pipelines for the transport of any fossil fuel resource that  require the use of eminent domain on private property; (v) certain maintenance activities relating to such gathering lines or pipelines; (vi) refineries of a fossil fuel resource; and (vii) exploration for any type of fossil fuel, unless preempted by applicable federal law.  The measure also requires that at least 80 percent of the electricity sold by a retail electric supplier in calendar years 2028 through 2035 be generated from clean energy resources.  In calendar year 2036 and every calendar year thereafter, 100 percent of the electricity sold by a retail electric supplier is required to be generated from clean energy resources.  The clean energy mandates apply to a public utility or other person that sells not less than 1,000 megawatt hours of electric energy to retail customers or generates not less than 1,000 megawatt hours of electric energy for use by the person.  The Director of the Department of Mines, Minerals and Energy [the Department] is authorized to bring actions for injunctions to enforce these requirements.  The measure requires the Department to adopt a Climate Action Plan that addresses all aspects of climate change, including mitigation, adaptation, resiliency, and assistance in the transition from current energy sources to clean renewable energy.  The measure provides that any retail electric supplier that fails to meet any goal or benchmark is liable for a civil penalty equal to twice the cost of the financial investment necessary to meet such goal or mandate that was not achieved, or three times the cost of the financial investment necessary to meet such goal or benchmark that was not achieved if not met in an environmental justice community. “The measure provides that it is the goal of the Commonwealth to achieve a 36 percent reduction in electric energy consumption in buildings by 2036.  The measure requires the Department, in coordination with the Virginia Council on Environmental Justice (Council) to establish performance benchmarks for environmental justice communities and to establish programs for jobs for people in environmental justice communities.  The measure requires the Council to develop and make available to each state agency training modules designed to facilitate the promotion of environmental justice. “The measure requires the Department to establish the Transitioning Workers Program (the Program) to provide support for workers in the fossil fuel industry and affected communities and provide such workers job training, relocation support, income and benefit support, and early retirement benefits.  The measure provides for funding such program by 20 percent of the revenue generated by the allowance auction established by the Director of the Department of Environmental Quality.  The measure prohibits the Commission from approving construction of any new utility-owned generating facilities that emit carbon dioxide as a by-product of combusting fuel to generate electricity.  The measure requires that all utility costs associated with the construction of, acquisition of, or agreements to purchase the energy, capacity, and environmental attributes of certain required generation and storage facilities are recovered through the utility's rates for generation and distribution services. “The measure requires that under the renewable energy portfolio standard program, Dominion Energy Virginia and American Electric Power be required to produce their electricity from 80 percent renewable sources by 2028 and 100 percent by 2036.  The measure increases the incremental energy efficiency savings that each investor-owned incumbent electric utility is required to achieve that start in 2022 at 2.4 percent for American Electric Power and Dominion Energy Virginia of the average annual energy retail sales by that utility in 2020 and increases those savings annually.” 5.  House Bill 2265 - Regulation of electric utilities; development of renewable energy facilities; powers of Air Pollution Control Board; powers of State Corporation Commission.  “Repeals provisions (i) requiring the Air Pollution Control Board to adopt regulations to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from any electricity generating unit in the Commonwealth and authorizing the Board to establish an auction program for energy allowances; (ii) prohibiting the State Corporation Commission from approving any new utility-owned generation facilities that emit carbon dioxide as a by-product of energy generation, in certain circumstances; (iii) declaring that statutory allowances for energy derived from sunlight, onshore wind, offshore wind, and storage facilities are in the public interest; and (iv) relating to the development of solar and wind generation and energy storage capacity, development of offshore wind capacity, and generation of electricity from renewable and zero carbon sources.  The bill provides that planning and development activities for new nuclear generation facilities are in the public interest.” SOURCES Used for Audio Virginia Legislative Information System, online at https://lis.virginia.gov/lis.htm.  This site provides lists and summaries of all bills, searchable by topic, member, committee, etc.  As of January 28, 2021, “Session Statistics,” online at https://lis.virginia.gov/cgi-bin/legp604.exe?211+oth+STA, indicated 1233 measures (House or Senate bills, resolutions, or joint resolutions) had been introduced for the 2021 session and 385 measures were continued from 2020, making a total of 1618 measures under consideration in 2021.Virginia General Assembly, online at http://virginiageneralassembly.gov/index.php.  This Web site offers several useful features, including member lists, session calendars, live video of floor sessions, and information on legislative processes.

TRANSCRIPT OF AUDIO From the Cumberland Gap to the Atlantic Ocean, this is Virginia Water Radio for the week of December 14, 2020. SOUND – ~4 sec This week, a Mallard duck’s quacking that somewhat resembles human laughter opens an episode that I hope will bring some actual human chuckles.  As the extraordinarily difficult year 2020 winds down, it seemed worthwhile to devote an episode to a bit of water-related comic relief—that is, water jokes!  So here are nine selected from a collection by David Ladner’s environmental engineering research group at Clemson University; some have been modified slightly by Virginia Water Radio. 1.  The other day I opened my water bill and my electricity bill at the same time.  I was shocked! 2.  Why do sharks swim in salt water?  Because pepper makes them sneeze. 3.  What do you get when you cross a rabbit with a water hose?  Hare spray. 4.  What kind of bear enjoys hanging out in light rain?  A drizzly bear. 5.  What did one ocean say to the other ocean?  Nothing, it just waved. 6.  Thirty people are sheltering under an umbrella.  How many of them get wet?  None; who said it was raining? 7.  What do you call water that’s healthy for you?  Well water. 8.  Would you like to hear a solid water joke?  That would be ice. And 9.  Did you hear that the ocean and the beach had fraternal twins?  Yep, one was a buoy or the other was a gull. Even with this year’s public health and economic challenges, I hope your world has some humor, aquatic or otherwise. We close with some music named for a Saturday morning source of humor for generations of kids from the 1960s until the early 2000s.  Here’s about 20 seconds of “Kartune,” by the [now-retired] Blacksburg and Roanoke, Va.-based band, No Strings Attached.

This episode is a revised repeat of an episode from April 2013.MUSIC – ~ 19 secThat’s part of “A Song for the Sea,” by the Richmond, Va.-based band Carbon Leaf.  The music opens an episode about Virginia’s famous connection to the sea—the Chesapeake Bay—and a wireless, floating system for getting current data and historical information about the Bay.  Have a listen for about 55 seconds to a recording from that system.VOICE - ~56 sec – “Welcome to NOAA’s First Landing buoy, part of the Chesapeake Bay Interpretive Buoy System. … This buoy lies on a shoal in the Chesapeake’s mouth, approximately halfway between the junction of the Thimble Shoals and Baltimore channels, and east of the middle section of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel.  The first landing buoy sits at the crossroads of the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic. Weather and water conditions at this intersection reflect the dynamic daily interplay of Earth’s third-largest estuary and her second-largest ocean. … In this location, the First Landing Chesapeake Bay Interpretive Buoy System buoy anchors the lower end of the buoy system.  It provides fascinating observations on both water quality and weather conditions, assisting many users, from pilots handling large ships, to anglers in small boats, and even tourists driving across the Bridge-Tunnel.”You’ve been listening to excerpts of a recording from the Chesapeake Bay Interpretive Buoy System, or CBIBS, about geography at the First Landing buoy near Cape Henry, Virginia.  Sometimes called “smart buoys,” these buoys provide current weather and water conditions at ten Bay locations, from the Susquehanna River’s mouth near Havre de Grace, Maryland, to Cape Henry.  Begun in 2007 and operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, or NOAA, CBIBS buoys collect meteorological, oceanographic, and water-quality data and relay that information through wireless technology to users of the system’s Web site or related mobile apps.  Along with the data measured at the buoys, CBIBS offers geographic, historical, and seasonal information for each buoy location, both in text and in audio recordings like the one you just heard.  This information helps interpret the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail, a water trail marking Smith’s explorations of the Bay and area rivers from 1607 to 1609.Whether you’re venturing out on the waters of the Chesapeake, or you have a land-based interest in Bay data, geography, or history, you can get information from CBIBS online at buoybay.noaa.gov or via mobile apps for the system.Thanks to Carbon Leaf for permission to use this week’s music, and we close with about 20 more seconds of “A Song for the Sea.”MUSIC – ~ 21 sec - “Sail, sail, sailor beware,” then instrumentalSHIP’S BELLVirginia Water Radio is produced by the Virginia Water Resources Research Center, part of Virginia Tech’s College of Natural Resources and Environment.  For more Virginia water sounds, music, or information, visit us online at virginiawaterradio.org, or call the Water Center at (540) 231-5624.  Thanks to Stewart Scales for his banjo version of Cripple Creek to open and close this show.   In Blacksburg, I’m Alan Raflo, thanking you for listening, and wishing you health, wisdom, and good water.AUDIO NOTES AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSThis Virginia Water Radio episode replaces Episode 159, 4-29-13.“A Song for the Sea,” from the 2013 album, “Ghost Dragon Attacks Castle,” is copyright by Carbon Leaf and Constant Ivy Music; used with permission of Constant Ivy Music.  More information about Carbon Leaf is available online at https://www.carbonleaf.com/band-bio; at https://www.facebook.com/carbonleaf/; and in Carbon Leaf still going strong after 26 years, by Mike Holtzclaw, [Newport News] Daily Press, 3/14/19.

While you are also in an open boat, you are equipped with a cell phone and waterproof maps of the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail—the first water trail in the National Park Service's National Trail System—giving you many advantages that the early explorers didn't have.“In particular, you have access to NOAA's Chesapeake Bay Interpretive Buoy System (CBIBS), a network of observation buoys that mark points along the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail.  These on-the-water platforms merge the modern technologies of cellular communications and internet-based information sharing.  You can pull out your cell phone and check out real-time weather and environmental information like wind speed, temperature, and wave height at any of the buoys.  Unlike John Smith, you know what's ahead of you, and can decide on an alternative plan to strike out for a landfall closer to home—protected from the elements and sheltered from the growing waves on the Bay.“Not only do these ‘smart buoys’ give you real-time wind and weather information, they can to tell you something about John Smith's adventures during his 1608 voyage.”SOURCESUsed for AudioChesapeake Conservancy, “About the [Captain John Smith Chesapeake] Trail,” online at https://www.chesapeakeconservancy.org/what-we-do/explore/find-your-chesapeake/about-the-trail/; and “History of the Trail,” online at https://www.chesapeakeconservancy.org/what-we-do/explore/find-your-chesapeake/about-the-trail/history-of-the-trail/.National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA), “Chesapeake Bay Interpretive Buoy System (CBIBS),” online at http://buoybay.noaa.gov/.National Park Service, “Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail,” online at https://home.nps.gov/cajo/index.htm.For More Information about the Chesapeake BayChesapeake Bay Program, online at https://www.chesapeakebay.net/.Alice Jane Lippson and Robert L.

Today on the show, I share a couple of excerpts from one of my collage textbooks.  The book is called “Black Notes” and it was written by my African Studies professor, William Banfield.  This book discusses the evolution of black music in America.  I feel like it’s important for a music podcast like mine, to educate people on the history and important impact black music has had throughout American culture.   There is also a rant on Facebook word policing and social justice warriors that may or may not make any sense… I really hope it does.  Facebook and Twitter has evolved into this place in which you’re not allowed to be anything other than perfect.  Where, Even though you stand for something good, you can be torn down for something you said when you were 16.  A place where we yell at one another and never listen and try to find any common ground.   Who are these perfect people? I’m definitely not one of them.  Enjoy the episode!   “Black Notes” by William Banfield https://www.amazon.com/Black-Notes-Musician-Post-Album-Paperback/dp/B00FDV8GDE/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=black+notes+William+banfield&qid=1591882271&sr=8-1   The Kickstarter for Carbon Leaf's 21st Recording is LIVE!

This is a Crabcake from The Maryland Crabs!  What is a Crabcake? Well, it's a very short snippet of something you need to know. It might be 5 minutes long..or it might be 20.  In any event, enjoy your Maryland Crabcake! OK, so this week John talks with Kevin Chaney who is the current and original emcee of the Annapolis Irish Festival. Aside from an inside joke about Ted and Nina, we thank O'Loughlan's for their hospitality (and food and drink) for letting us take up a table for an hour and tipping so poorly. This year's Annapolis Irish Festival will be a special one for many reasons--and you will need to attend to see about that; but today we chat about the vendors, the new and improved aspects of the fest and we answer the question--what will it take to get Kevin on stage in a kilt...and the subset question--- in a kilt without underwear! We talk about Carbon Leaf, Scythian, Gaelic Storm, The Gothard Sisters, Barleyjuice, Seamus Kennedy, EJ "Piper" Jones, and so many more.  We talk about the VIP section with unlimited "fun" (which is special code for "beer"), and special bathrooms. We talk about the pipe competition and Friday night where first responders and military (and one guest) all get in for free,  and we share some stories of the past.  Come on out to The Annapolis Irish Festival on June 1st and 2nd and see why this is THE festival of the year here in Annapolis. Hey they even let the non-Irish folk in as well. The festival is sponsored by Buck Distributing, The Greene Turtle, Homestead Gardens, Galway Bay and a host of others as well. Tickets are available HERE and if you buy them prior to 1159pm on May 25th you can save $5 on every General Admission ticket by using the code AIF when you check out.

Listen to our interview with SeeKPeeKRs of Calvert County, Maryland. Their first GPSR was the Garmin eTrex Legend but they're currently using the Garmin GPSMAP 60Cx. For paperless caching they use the notes function on their iPod loaded through MacCaching. They're playing with the Geocaching iPhone App. Their favorite location to cache has been their home state of Maryland. Her favorite books are the "Dragonriders of Pern" series. While for movies she likes "Tremors," "Buckaroo Banzai," "Star Trek," and "Star Wars." Favorite television series include "Amazing Race," "Big Bang Theory," "Firefly," and "Survivor." Favorite Musical Groups are "Carbon Leaf," "Genesis," "Rush," and "The Who."Our "Tip for the Seasoned Cacher" comes from Listener WRWhizard:"When you find a well worn 'GeoTrail' leading to the cache, it might be a good idea to drag some dead fall over to block it so it will grow back natural and help restore the difficulty of the original hide. In general, you should cover your tracks and leave no trace you were there. Conversely, I use the tracking skills I've begun to acquire, to follow the hider to his newly placed cache. I check logs to see how recently a cache has been found, and adjust for how old the traces should be when carefully approaching the cache area so as not to trample any clues."Twitter: SydneyAnneCache-A-Maniacs Discovery Coin: TB23G0EShow Sponsor: Podcacher PodcastContent Rating: NormalDate Recorded: November 20, 2009Show Notes: DarrylW4
