People began to think Bessie Smith must be some kind of witchy woman. After all, they said, how else could she have recorded a song about the devastating Great Mississippi River Flood weeks before it even started?The lyrics of Smith's 1927 “Backwater Blues” certainly described perfectly the kind of misery that was being reported in the newspapers across the country that spring: It rained five days and the sky turned dark as night Then trouble's takin' place in the lowlands at night… When it thunders and lightnin', and the wind begins to blow There's thousands of people, ain't got no place to go… Backwater blues done called me to pack my things and go 'Cause my house fell down and I can't live there no more…To listeners, those words evoked pictures of what they were reading about. What then, other than hoodoo-y powers, could enable Smith to write and record a song about the flood and get the disc out before the rains even began to fall.To this day, Smith's Columbia record — with Bessie's vocal over James P. Johnson's stride piano — is often associated with the Great Mississippi River Flood of 1927. Some teachers even use the song in classrooms as an audio introduction to the topic of one of America's greatest 20th century natural disasters.But….The fact is, though, the Columbia release of “Blackwater Blues” is one of the great coincidences in blues history. That's because historians now know that Bessie actually wrote “Backwater Blues” about a different flood on an entirely different river.Ninety years after the disc's release, writer David Evans made the case in the British journal called Popular Music that Smith found inspiration for her composition on Christmas of 1926 when the Cumberland River flooded during her stay in Nashville. “With her show cancelled, she found herself in a boarding house above an undertaker's, crowded together with people who'd been displaced,” Evans wrote. Angela Davis, in her 1990 book Blues Legacies and Black Feminism, also reported that story, recounting these words of Smith's sister-in-law, Maud Smith: “There was a lot of other people there, and they were trying to get her to stay, so they started hollerin' ‘Miss Bessie, please sing the ‘Back Water Blues,' please sing the ‘Back Water Blues.'” Well, Bessie didn't know anything about any ‘Back Water Blues,' but after we came back home … [she] came into the kitchen one day, and she had a pencil and paper, and she started singing and writing.”The RecordingOn Smith's next visit to Columbia's studio on Feb. 17, 1927, she recorded the new song, which the record company released in March, which just happened to be the same time the Mississippi was starting to flood, reaching record depth upriver around Cairo, Illinois. In the weeks to come, the great river's levees were starting to fail downstream, from Greenville down to the Gulf of Mexico. Ultimately, the swollen river would inundate an area nearly the size of Scotland across seven states. A thousand people lost their lives. Almost half a million homes were destroyed. A million people became homeless. Entire neighborhoods were wiped out. Despite its actual origin story, Bessie Smith's composition has become the anthem of the 1927 flood and, by extension, of other devastating natural disasters. For instance, when Katrina flooded New Orleans in 2005, many were recalling Bessie's words: I went and stood up on some high old lonesome hill And looked down on the house where I used to live…More Blues?If this song has you hankering for a second helping, drop by the free Radio Floodango music streaming service and click into the Blues Channel.

fWotD Episode 2951: David Evans (RAAF officer) Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 3 June 2025, is David Evans (RAAF officer).Air Marshal Selwyn David Evans (3 June 1925 – 2 September 2020) was a senior commander of the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), and a writer and consultant on defence matters. He served as Chief of the Air Staff from 1982 to 1985. After leaving the RAAF, he published two military treatises, A Fatal Rivalry: Australia's Defence at Risk and War: A Matter of Principles, as well as an autobiography.Enlisting in the Air Force in 1943, Evans graduated from flying school as a sergeant pilot, and was converting to Beaufort bombers when World War II ended. He gained his commission as a pilot officer in 1947. From 1948 to 1949, he was a member of the Australian contingent operating C-47 Dakota transports in the Berlin Airlift. He was a flying instructor in the early 1950s, before becoming a VIP captain with the Governor-General's Flight in 1954. His service in the flight earned him the Air Force Cross in 1957. In the 1960s Evans was twice posted to No. 2 Squadron, flying Canberra jet bombers, first as a flight commander when the unit was based in Malaysia from 1960 to 1962, then as its commanding officer during the Vietnam War from 1967 to 1968. The Canberras achieved a high degree of accuracy on their bombing missions under his leadership, and he was awarded the Distinguished Service Order after completing his tour in Vietnam.Evans held senior staff positions in the early 1970s before serving as Officer Commanding RAAF Base Amberley from 1975 to 1977. Promoted to air vice-marshal, he then became Chief of Air Force Operations. In this role, he worked to improve the RAAF's strategy for the defence of Australia, to fully exploit the "air–sea gap" on the northern approaches to the continent. Appointed Officer of the Order of Australia in 1981, he was Chief of Joint Operations and Plans in the Australian Defence Force (ADF) before his promotion to air marshal and Chief of the Air Staff in April 1982. As head of the Air Force, he focussed on morale, air power doctrine, and improving defensive capabilities in northern Australia. He was raised to Companion of the Order of Australia in 1984. Retiring from the RAAF in May 1985, Evans began to write and lecture on defence matters, and also stood for election in federal politics. He was a board member of and defence advisor to British Aerospace Australia from 1990 to 2009, and chairman of the National Capital Authority from 1997 to 2003. In 2001, he was awarded the Centenary Medal for his services to the ADF and the Canberra community.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:30 UTC on Tuesday, 3 June 2025.For the full current version of the article, see David Evans (RAAF officer) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm long-form Patrick.
When we visit the doctor, we routinely measure blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose, weight, and heart rate. For years, we've known that early life experiences—especially stress and adversity—leave long-lasting marks on the nervous system. But we rarely stop to ask: How can we see those marks?That's where the eye comes in. Why the Eye Reveals the BrainThe corneal nerve plexus is a dense network of sensory nerves at the front of the eye. It's part of the peripheral nervous system, which connects directly to the brain.Emerging research shows that these corneal nerves reflect the state of the broader nervous system, including:Stress loadInflammatory markersNeurodegenerative changesIn other words: When we look at the eye, we're not just seeing vision structures—we're seeing a living map of how the brain and body have been shaped over time. I had the fortunate opportunity to do study leave at UC Berkeley in the School of Optometry and Vision Sciences, a research project with Drs Katie Edwards and Luisa Holguin Colorado and Kerri Gillepie at QUT and Dr Suzanne Fleiszig and Dr David Evans at UC Berkeley.Why Isn't Nervous System Analysis Routine?Here's the bigger question.When we visit the doctor, we routinely measure blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose, weight, and heart rate. But the nervous system—the control center of our entire body—is rarely assessed in standard care.Why?We know that chronic stress increases risk for mental illness, metabolic disease, cardiovascular conditions, and cognitive decline. We know that early life stress reshapes neural pathways and immune responses. Yet we lack accessible, affordable, and scalable tools to routinely check the health of the nervous system.That's what makes the eye so exciting. It offers a non-invasive, real-time window into nervous system health—and a chance to shift medicine toward prevention and early detection, rather than just reacting to crisis.In this episode we discuss:How the eye reveals hidden stressWhat we're learning about the links between early life adversity and neural healthWhy public engagement is critical as we develop these new toolsThis is a conversation not just for scientists, but for everyone who cares about mental health, brain health, and the future of healthcare. I'd love to hear what excites or concerns you about this emerging field. When we truly see how early life shapes the brain, we can no longer treat people as just symptoms or diagnoses.It opens a new kind of care: Asking what happened to you? not just what's wrong? Making nervous system health part of routine care Prioritising prevention, resilience, and healingBy measuring the hidden imprints of experience, we can design treatments that help rewire the brain, not just manage symptoms.This isn't just science. It's a transformation in how we care for people.Let's build that future, together.

Few could deny that Ott Tänak was the fastest driver on Rally Portugal 2025 and would most likely have won by a handsome margin had he not been hampered by power-steering failure on Saturday afternoon. Instead, it was the old master Sébastien Ogier who was there to bring his Toyota GR Yaris home without any dramas while still outpacing all of his team-mates. David Evans and Luke Barry dissect all the action and consider why three of this year's WRC title favorites – Thierry Neuville, Kalle Rovanperä and Elfyn Evans – had relatively lackluster events.
