Quanto sappiamo degli argomenti che conosciamo? Come possiamo colmare le zone grigie della nostra conoscenza? Provo a rispondere con l'aiuto del libro, "L'intelligenza del rischio" di Dick Evans. Musica: Grace - Autore:Jack Thweatt

Called Mr. Marijuana, Dick Evans is an expert in the field of Cannabis. Recently the keynote speaker at NECANN Springfield. Known for chairing the committee on creating question 4 back in 2016, we sit down with the man himself to see what he thinks about the current condition of Legalization in Massachusetts.

Dick Evans, for First Word, read a portion of his late wife Pat's written reflection about a trip to FWCC* as a representative of NWYM* many years ago. She reflected on the diversity of beliefs in Quaker circles. She wrote, "Love and respect has to override my frustrations." When she respected them for their fruitful lives, she began to see them in a new light. She could love them, because they were her brothers and sisters.

Los comienzos de U2 se remontan al 25 de Septiembre de 1976, en Dublín, Irlanda. Larry Mullen Jr., batería de U2, puso un anuncio en el tablón de anuncios de sus instituto (Mount Temple Comprehensive School), buscando miembros para formar una banda de rock. Se presentaron 7 chicos: Adam Clayton, Paul Hewson (Bono), Dave Evans (The Edge), su hermano Dick Evans y dos amigos de Larry que prácticamente no participaron en la nueva banda llamada Feedback. Durante estos primeros tiempos, Feedback solo tocaba versiones de grandes éxitos. En Marzo de 1977, Feedback paso a llamarse The Hype y todavía seguía formada por 5 miembros. En Marzo de 1978, Dick Evans abandona el grupo y la banda cambia definitivamente de nombre, pasándose a llamar U2 (nombre propuesto por Steve Averill, un amigo de la banda). A partir de ese momento, la carrera de U2, siguió creciendo de manera progresiva. El 17 de Abril de 1978 U2 gano el concurso Harp Lager Talent Contest en Limerick, Irlanda, con lo que consiguieron un premio de 500 libras y la posibilidad de grabar una demo. En Septiembre de 1979, U2 edita su primer single U2 Three en Irlanda, convirtiéndose en el primer éxito de la banda. Pero si hay un punto de inflexión en la carrera de U2, se trata de la firma de su primer contrato discográfico, en Febrero de 1980, con Island Records. Fue el inicio de una gran relación, ya que Island Records, era una compañía que daba mucha libertad a sus artistas, lo que propiciaría que U2 tuviera en el futuro una gran capacidad de maniobra para decidir su camino artístico.

The song this week is called Song of Anglesey which I composed for my pal Paul Damian and is a track off the album Portrait of Wales......it is available from my website. As I said I was in Anglesey over the weekend and visited a village on the north of the Island called Moelfre...it is a small picturesque fishing village with a lifeboat station....close by is a huge bronze statue of a famous lifeboat man called Dick Evans....his bravery earned him the lifeboat equivalent of the Victoria Cross....and he was once featured on This Is Your Life with Eamonn Andrews.....back in the 90s I had a good friend who would show me around the Island and he took me to meet a pal of his...."The is Dick Evans" he said....I had no idea who this delightful chap was until he showed me the book he received from the TV programme....sadly he died shortly after but you can imagine my amazement years later when I first saw the statue...I nearly fell over backwards....I bought a book of his adventures which was like reading a James Bond novel...I am so proud to call this hero my friend. I watched the programme on the nations favourite 20 Elvis songs....it was quite interesting how the public saw him.....a lot of the songs were from the Vegas years but personally I preferred his earlier stuff....I thought the best record he ever made was Jailhouse Rock (which appeared about halfway on the list)....when you listen to this song and consider there are only four instruments it is a masterpiece....the drum riff was genius...and lyrically brilliant.....the man was a one-off. Show business has just lost Bruce Forsyth....he was 89....although I wasn't a huge fan I appreciated his great talent....he could sing and dance and play piano......and was an excellent stand up comic....he had it all.Going by the many tributes he seemed like he was a decent bloke as well.....I can't remember a time when he wasn't around...and I remember when he failed to make in America and the media slated him....and still he bounced back.....another one-off and I think his catch phrases will live on..as they say "Didn't he do well". The solar eclipse has caused a sensation in America with thousands going out to ooh an aah at the moon blocking out the sun...we only got a partial one in this country...I believe...I doubt if anyone saw it through the clouds...I remember the one we had here in 1999 and I went out on to the River Dee in my laser dinghy with my son in his... and sailed through the sudden darkness which was quite surreal ...seals started popping their heads up and seagulls dropped down to the water...it was quite an adrenaline rush not knowing what would happen.....a great experience.
