Bethanie welcomes back friend of the show Olivia to discuss the final 2 chapters and the epilogue of Wires and Nerve Volume 2. As the friends mourn the loss of Iko, Cress and Keeney share a heart-to-heart about their true friendships with Iko. Cress reveals that she was once jealous of Iko, that she has grown to love her, and...she made a backup Iko! As Iko reawakens, she must come face-to-face with her lost 'memories', and make some hard decisions regarding the truth about Garan's programming. The friends are finally safe and free from the tourment of Alpha Steele, just in time to celebrate The Annual Peace Festival, and for Iko to finally attend the ball. This podcast is hosted and produced by the Three Sisters Podcast Network.  Logo Art created by Cosmic Nova Flare.  Intro/Outro music composed by Emma Pavvo.

As the gang attempts to aide her, Wolf finally rejoins the fold. But just when our heroes think they've won, Alpha Steele destroys the one thing that could break this group forever. Alone and confused by Iko's loss, Keeney ponders what it truly means to be human. While he questions his strange friendship with Iko, Cress reveals a secret so powerful it could return a smile to everyone in The Eastern Commonwealth...or at least everyone on the Rampion Crew.    This podcast is hosted and produced by the Three Sisters Podcast Network.  Logo Art created by Cosmic Nova Flare.  Intro/Outro music composed by Emma Pavvo. 

Repentance (Star Trek: Voyager, S7 E13) was recommended by Rugger (They/them), who said: A lot of Voyager's preachy episodes fall flat, but this one always makes me pause. When I first watched this episode as a child, it shaped how I see justice. And, plot-wise, Repentance does a great job of combining a dialogue-heavy, philosophical discussion with real pathos for the murderer, Iko, and linking that pathos to an ongoing character arc with Seven.While Trek is expectedly against the death penalty, this episode keeps from being one-sided by the sub-plot with Neelix and Joleg.Repentance first aired on January 31, 2001, written by story by Mike Sussman and Robert Doherty, teleplay by Robert Doherty, and directed by Mike VejarPrisoners are brought onto Voyager from a damaged alien vessel, and the crew must deliver them to their destination – for execution. Seven's nanoprobes are used to help heal a prisoner.The Joy of Trek is hosted by Khaki & Kay, with editing & production by Chief Engineer Greg and music by Fox Amoore (Bandcamp | Bluesky)Send us your recommendations, or support us on Patreon.Find us at joyoftrek.com · Twitter · Facebook

ARNO believes that machining is now something like Formula 1 racing: every little screw is tuned to increase performance. Thinking outside the box is essential, especially when considering cutting tools and turning. It would be helpful if users could always use the right combination of tools, inserts, and coolant supply. In Formula 1, everything is constantly scrutinised to glean maximum performance. Yet only the driver and the manufacturer who have mastered the overall package can reap the world championship crown. Despite all the optimisations and specifications, cutting tools for turning have yet to reach the end of their potential. Responsible tool manufacturers think about selling as many cutting tools as possible and include the tool holders and cooling supply into the equation. On the other hand, users should be open to tips, let consulting manufacturers approach them, and allow them to enter the production process. The potential that can be achieved in this way can provide a decisive leading edge. Be open to third-party expert tips For example, ARNO Werkzeuge has long been involved in the continued development of tool holders and coolant supply. Thanks to its customer proximity, the family-run company has a wealth of expertise from numerous applications and a wide range of holders with and without coolant supply. Users can rely on the best overall packages for small and large batches, as well as Swiss and fixed headstock lathes. “Here, too, we are not interested in maximising sales figures for high-margin products. We aim to find the best solution for our customers,” assures Sales Manager Dieter Wollensack from ARNO Werkzeuge. As an experienced technical advisor, he focuses on long-term and intensive customer relationships. He detests the promise of ‘double the service at half the price' and pie in the sky. “I sometimes say to my customers: ‘No, that's not possible' or ‘We won't do that' and risk being turned down. I've always been successful with this approach - and ultimately, so have my customers.” Advice or not, process optimisation products must be convincing in practice. For this reason, the overall package consisting of a cutting insert or indexable insert with a matching tool holder and high-performance cooling must always deliver the best customer performance. This is exactly what users should attach importance to their tool partners to understand the processes and have the right overall package for every production situation. For example, universal packages for small batches, high-tech solutions for large batches, and special products for difficult-to-machine materials. Exorbitant promises never help. Innovative when it comes to ‘cost per part' When tool manufacturers adopt this mindset, new products and solutions result. One example is the clamping holders with through-tool cooling for inserts that ARNO Werkzeuge developed in 2022. They are produced using a hybrid manufacturing process that combines additive technology with conventional CNC milling, achieving better surface quality. But why? Coolant flows directly where it's needed. Three precisely aligned channels guide the coolant to the cutting edge from above and underneath without obstructing chip evacuation. The special geometry of the cooling channel creates a nozzle effect that greatly improves cooling compared to conventional channels. The outlet openings are always perfect—they need no adjustment. And since they are much closer to the cutting zone, the coolant significantly reduces the temperature. Experienced users will recognise the benefits immediately: greater process reliability, less vibration, better surface quality and a much longer tool life. Users have sent reports about tool life that is three times longer. Of course, this is not at all suitable for small batches - but when it comes to large batch orders, it's just the right ace in the calculation where everything has to do with the cost per part. Hybrid holder: productive from additive The secret isn't rocket science, but you must figure it out first. The shanks of the hybrid holders from ARNO Werkzeuge are produced using conventional CNC milling. On the other hand, the complex head part of the holder is attached directly to the shank using a 3D printing process. “This gives us new design freedom and outstanding stability,” says Werner Meditz, Head of Technology at ARNO Werkzeuge. The geometric design of the cooling ducts can be precisely optimised so that coolant is guided through the holder to the cutting tool at maximum efficiency and reaches the cutting edge directly from above and underneath. This cools the tool flanks in a way that was previously unthinkable. At the same time, the number of attachments required at the top of the head is reduced to the absolute minimum. The chip breaks as needed and is optimally evacuated - regardless of the cutting depth. “We get a lot more coolant to where it needs to go,” Meditz assures us. The innovative hybrid holder is exactly what clever users want - and this all comes from a tool partner thinking out of the box. Not only high-tech but also ‘basic work.' But even when it's not high-end, machine shops welcome innovative turning tool manufacturers with well-thought-out products. Meeting someone who can also offer the right holders and complete systems for small batches with frequent workpiece changes is refreshing. At ARNO Werkzeuge, you will find a wide range of turning holders for external machining, where the length is easily adjustable using a scale. “The ARNO special design is extremely simple and practical when it comes to adjusting the length and coolant access,” confirms Meditz. The holder and through-tool cooling are easy to install and ensure repeatable process reliability. Their nickel-plated, high-tensile, and precisely finished nature promises top quality and long tool life. The efficient cooling system, which feeds coolant directly to the cutting edge through three channels, not only ensures long tool life but also allows higher cutting speeds with optimised chip control. The machining time savings make the cost calculation look good. Variety of boring bars for internal machining Finally, we come to internal machining. Turning tool manufacturers have already given this much thought. First and foremost, the designers at ARNO Werkzeuge have also considered the customer's situation and developed suitable boring bars for a wide range of applications. The range includes boring bars of steel and solid carbide, each with two possible coolant hole exits. Depending on the turning process, users can choose between a coolant channel from above (IKO) for through holes and a coolant channel from underneath (IKU) for blind holes. Accordingly, chips are guided forward away from the cutting edge (IKO) or behind the cutting edge and flushed out (IKU). This reduces wear. Boring bars come in right or left-hand versions with different shank diameters, a wide variety of clamping holders, and many approach angles. This variety alone shows that the manufacturer thinks from a user's point of view. Combined with suitable mini indexable inserts from ARNO Werkzeuge, components from Dmin 4.8mm can be machined effortlessly, regardless of diameter and material. This is only the standard range, not customised products. This already promises long tool life because all ARNO boring bars are nickel-plated, high tensile and precisely machined, which certainly boosts confidence. Users looking for suitable, long-life productivity-enhancing tools for all their turning operations and processes should be glad that some manufacturers have adapted their thinking to include their customers applications.

I händelse av kris eller krig måste vi säkerställa att vi har tillgång till den information som krävs för att upprätthålla och vid behov återstarta samhällsviktig verksamhet. Samhällsviktig information behöver också långsiktigt säkras och bevaras för att inte enskilda råkar illa ut om informationen försvinner. I poddavsnittet pratar Karin Åström Iko och Marie Lennersand om samhällsviktig information och varför Riksarkivet vill se åtgärder för att vi ska ha en bättre beredskap.

So much happens! We finally catch up with Wolf and Scarlet, living their happily ever after but Wolf is struggling with the monster within, holding him back from fully committing to Scarlet. Kai has opened a facility that researches and produces the bioelectrical chip designed by Lihn Garin. It is revealed that he is the only Earthen leader to install the chip but Winter is convinced his genuine affection for Cinder/Selene will encourage others. We also learn that Jacin has recently been applying to Earthen medical schools. Meanwhile, in a heated discussion with Keeney, Iko misreads the signals and feels  a spark between them. But her obsession with net dramas has given her a false expectation of romance. Behind the scenes, Alpha Steele and his minions are planning their next move!

Thorne reaches Cress just in time to find out she can handle a couple mutant wolf soldiers all on her own! But having a friendly face, a new medal, and a romantic moment helps. Just like in the net drams! Iko learns what Steele is really after, and why he doesn't trust Selene. Keeney arrives as Steele is unpersuaded to return to Luna and cuts Iko's optic sensors. Cress saves her eyesight and after a quick reboot they learn Steele's group of mutant wolves is much larger than they had anticipated, and they may not be prepared for the fight that awaits them.      This podcast is hosted and produced by Bethanie Finger with Special Guest Ayla.

"From Chicago to Egypt: Collecting Dead Memorabilia and Memories with Jay Blakesburg"Larry Mishkin features a nostalgic recounting of a Grateful Dead concert from March 11th, 1993, at the Rosemont Horizon in Rosemont, Illinois. The discussion covers various aspects of the event, including the venue's challenges, the band's performance, and reflections on specific songs played during the show. Larry also touches on recent music events, such as Phil Lesh and Friends' performances and upcoming Phish summer tour dates. It also highlights an exhibition by photographer Jay Blakesburg and his collection of Grateful Dead memorabilia, along with personal anecdotes related to Dead history.  Grateful DeadMarch 11, 1993 (31 years ago)Rosemont HorizonRosemont, Illinois (Chicago)Grateful Dead Live at Rosemont Horizon on 1993-03-11 : Free Borrow & Streaming : Internet ArchiveFinal night of 3 show run March 9 – March 11 (Tuesday – Thursday)  INTRO:                  Help On The Way                                Track #1                                :20 – 2:06                                 Released on Blues For Allah (1975)                                Played 111 times                                First time:  June 17, 1975 at Winterland, S.F.                                       Last time:  June 22, 1995 at Knickerbocker Arena, Albany, NY       SHOW No. 1:      When I Paint My Masterpiece                                Track #6                                1:36 – 3:12                 "When I Paint My Masterpiece" is a 1971 song written by Bob Dylan. It was first released by The Band, who recorded the song for their album Cahoots, released on September 15, 1971. Dylan himself first recorded the song at New York's Blue Rock Studio when he was backed by Leon Russell and session musicians, including Jesse Ed Davis on lead guitar, appeared on Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits Vol. II, released November 17, 1971, with Russell credited as the producer.             Dylan and The Band performed the song together live, in the early hours of January 1, 1972, at a New Year's Eve concert by The Band; a recording was released as a bonus track on the 2001 CD reissue of The Band's live album Rock of Ages. Douglas Brinkley, while interviewing Dylan for the New York Times in 2020, noted that "When I Paint My Masterpiece" was a song that had grown on him over the years and asked Dylan why he had brought it "back to the forefront of recent concerts". Dylan replied, "It's grown on me as well. I think this song has something to do with the classical world, something that's out of reach. Someplace you'd like to be beyond your experience. Something that is so supreme and first rate that you could never come back down from the mountain. That you've achieved the unthinkable. That's what the song tries to say, and you'd have to put it in that context. In saying that though, even if you do paint your masterpiece, what will you do then? Well, obviously you have to paint another masterpiece". According to his official website, Dylan played the song live 182 times between 1975 and 2019.[4] Five live performances of the song from Dylan's 1975 Rolling Thunder Revue tour were released on the box set The Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1975 Live Recordings in 2019. The live debut occurred at the War Memorial Auditorium in Plymouth, Massachusetts on October 30, 1975 and the most recent performances occurred on the Rough and Rowdy Ways World Wide Tour in 2023. Played 146 timesFirst: June 13, 1987 at Ventura County Fairgrounds, Ventura, CALast: July 9, 1995 at Soldier Field, Chicago My favorite Dylan cover.  Would rotate in first set with other Dylan covers including Queen Jane Approximately, Stuck Inside of Mobile With Memphis Blues Again and Desolation Row.            SHOW No. 2:      So Many Roads                                Track #7                                :39 – 2:21                 So Many Roads was first performed by the Grateful Dead on February 22, 1992. It was then played regularly through to the last performance of the song on July 9, 1995. In total the song was played just over 50 times.Jerry Garcia spoke about So Many Roads in an interview with Dave DiMartino in 1992;“It's Hunter writing me from my point of view, you know what I mean? We've been working together for so long that he knows what I know. The song is full of references to things that have to do with me.... “....Hunter is the only guy that could do that. He can write my point of view better than I can think it, you know what I mean? So that's the kind of relationship we have. And he frequently writes tunes from my point of view that are autobiographical. There actually biographical I guess. He's the one writing them, but even so they express my point of view - and more than that they express the emotional content of my soul in a certain way that only a long-term and intimate relationship with a guy as brilliant as Hunter coughs up ... I can sing that song, feel totally comfortable with it.” Robert Hunter's comments on the origins of this song in the notes in Box Of Rain: Lyrics 1965-1993; “One afternoon, Jerry was playing some unstructured changes on the piano. Figuring they might be forgotten otherwise, I clicked on my tape recorder. Ten years later I found the tape and listened to it, liked it, and set these words to it. Listening to the pitifully recorded and time-degraded tape, Jerry protested that, although he liked the words, his changes were not very good and unfinished besides. This didn't seem to be the base and I requested that he at least give it a run through. The result was one of the better received new GD songs and one that almost got away.” Never released on a Dead studio album but was a centerpiece of the Dead's first Box Set:  So Many Roads, 5 disc retrospective of the band from 1965 to 1995. Many commentators said this was the best one ever.  When I saw the show, we were still just all hearing the song fort the first few times and getting used to it.  Over time, it has become a favorite thanks to Hunter's lyrics and Jerry's playing and singing. Very emotional.    SHOW No. 3:      Iko Iko                                Track No. 9                                4:04 – 5:38                 "Iko Iko" (/ˈaɪkoʊˈaɪkoʊ/) is a much-coveredNew Orleans song that tells of a parade collision between two tribes of Mardi Gras Indians and the traditional confrontation. The song, under the original title "Jock-A-Mo", was written and released in 1953 as a single by James "Sugar Boy" Crawford and his Cane Cutters but it failed to make the charts.             The story tells of a "spy boy" (i.e. a lookout for one band of Indians) encountering the "flag boy" or guidon carrier for another "tribe". He threatens to "set the flag on fire". Crawford set phrases chanted by Mardi Gras Indians to music for the song. Crawford himself states that he has no idea what the words mean, and that he originally sang the phrase "Chock-a-mo", but the title was misheard by Chess Records and Checker Records president Leonard Chess, who misspelled it as "Jock-a-mo" for the record's release.             The song first became popular in 1965 by the girl groupthe Dixie Cups, who scored an international hit with "Iko Iko". In 1967, as part of a lawsuit settlement between Crawford and the Dixie Cups, the trio were given part songwriting credit for the song. In 1972, Dr. John had a minor hit with his version of "Iko Iko".  Second set opener.  From intro, it was hard to tell if they were going into Women Are Smarter to Iko.  Really enjoyed Women Are Smarter, but always extra happy when it turns out to be Iko. Great version.  Jerry very energetic and really getting into it.                 Played 185 times                First: May 15, 1977 at The Arena in St. Louis                Last: July 5, 1995 at Riverport Amphitheater in St. Louis (first and last time in St. Louis!!)                 SHOW No. 4:      Space                                Track #15 (note that there are 2 “Space” tracks, this is the first one, Track 15)                                4:25 – 5:42 (The Island – Ken Nordine)                               Ken Nordine (April 13, 1920 – February 16, 2019) was an American voice-over and recording artist, best known for his series of word jazz albums.[2] His deep, resonant voice has also been featured in many commercial advertisements and movie trailers. One critic wrote that "you may not know Ken Nordine by name or face, but you'll almost certainly recognize his voice.”             In 1955, he provided the voiceover on Billy Vaughn's version of "Shifting Whispering Sands", which peaked at number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. He subsequently attracted wider attention when he recorded the aural vignettes on Word Jazz (Dot, 1957). Love Words, Son of Word Jazz (Dot, 1958) and his other albums in this vein feature Nordine's narration over cool jazz by the Fred Katz Group featuring Chico Hamilton recording under an alias.             Nordine began performing and recording such albums at the peak of the beat era and was associated with the poetry-and-jazz movement. However, it has been observed that some of Nordine's writings "are more akin to Franz Kafka or Edgar Allan Poe" than to the beats.[8] Many of his word jazz tracks feature critiques of societal norms.[9] Some are lightweight and humorous, while others reveal dark, paranoid undercurrents and bizarre, dream-like scenarios. Nordine's DVD, The Eye Is Never Filled was released in 2007.[9]Nordine hosted the weekly Word Jazz program on WBEZ, also carried on other stations, from the 1970s for over forty years.In 1990, Nordine was approached by Jerry Garcia of The Grateful Dead to be the anchor for their New Year's Eve radio broadcast from Oakland, California.[13] For the broadcast he recorded some improvisations with Garcia, drummer Mickey Hart and Egyptian musician Hamza El-Din.[13] This subsequently led to an album Devout Catalyst, released on the Grateful Dead's own label in 1991[13] and Upper Limbo in 1993[14] and an appearance with the band live at a show at Rosemont, Illinois, in March 1993.            Ken Nordine died February 16, 2019.                OUTRO:                Days Between                                Track No. 18                                4:51 – 6:51                 “Days Between,” a late song in the Robert Hunter / Jerry Garcia songbook, was perhaps their last collaboration on a big, significant song, one that ranks with “Dark Star” and “Terrapin Station” as ambitious and intentionally grand. (I was talking the other day with a friend, about Garcia's playing and songwriting, and the thought came up that Garcia, like few others, was unafraid of grandeur, and could successfully pull it off. Same with Hunter.)            It appeared like the ghostly ships it describes, as if gradually from a fog and only slowly revealing itself as something very big, towering above everything around. It's hard to say it any better than Phil Lesh did in his autobiography, Searching for the Sound:“Achingly nostalgic, ‘Days Between' evokes the past. The music climbs laboriously out of shadows, growing and peaking with each verse, only to fall back each time in hopeless resignation. When Jerry sings the line ‘when all we ever wanted / was to learn and love and grow' or ‘gave the best we had to give / how much we'll never know,' I am immediately transported decades back in time, to a beautiful spring morning with Jerry, Hunter, Barbara Meier, and Alan Trist—all of us goofing on the sheer exhilaration of being alive. I don't know whether to weep with joy at the beauty of the vision or with sadness at the impassable chasm of time between the golden past and the often painful present.”            Each verse in the song contains fourteen lines, and each evokes a different season of the year, although not in sequence. The first verse contains the lines “Summer flies and August dies / the world grows dark and mean.” I can't hear that line without thinking about August West, in Wharf Rat, and, by extension, Garcia himself. “The singing man is at his song / the holy on their knees.” Who is the singing man, if not Garcia, when it comes to Hunter and his words?                Played 42 times by the band, always in the second set, almost always out of drums                First:  February 22, 1993 at the Oakland Alameda County Coliseum in Oakland, CA                Last:  June 24, 1995 at RFK Stadium, Washington, D.C. This was just the second time it was ever played “Gave the best we had to give, how much we'll never know” No chorus in this song, just verses that keep building on each other. .Produced by PodConx Deadhead Cannabis Show - https://podconx.com/podcasts/deadhead-cannabis-showLarry Mishkin - https://podconx.com/guests/larry-mishkinRob Hunt - https://podconx.com/guests/rob-huntJay Blakesberg - https://podconx.com/guests/jay-blakesbergSound Designed by Jamie Humiston - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamie-humiston-91718b1b3/Recorded on Squadcast

    An unusual second set setlist and an unusual guest highlight this week's Deadpod from February 12, 1989 in Los Angeles.  Following an opening 'Iko, Iko', Bob breaks out 'Monkey and the Engineer' for the final time, although it sounds a bit different than in the past due to Bob's different timing of the verses. 'Alabama Getaway' follows, another unusual second set choice, then again, 'Dire Wolf', if with a bit of a ragged chorus.A nice version of 'Cassidy' follows, then 'Stuck Inside of Mobile With the Memphis Blues Again' - with Dylan adding some vocals when Bobby 'forgets' in the middle of the song..  An interesting 'Other One' follows post-drums, with a Kodo drummer adding some intensity, but it is a bit shorter than usual.. 'Stella Blue' follows and flows into a set closing 'Foolish Heart'. A nice double encore follows, with Dylan taking the vocals for 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door'..   Grateful Dead Great Western Forum Inglewood, CA 2/12/1989 - Sunday Two     Iko Iko** ; Monkey And The Engineer** ; Alabama Getaway** ; Dire Wolf** ; Cassidy** ; Stuck Inside Of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again** ; Drums > Space > The Other One*** > Stella Blue > Foolish Heart Encore     Not Fade Away** ; Knockin' On Heaven's Door** * with Spencer Davis ** with Bob Dylan (guitar,vocals on Memphis Blues, Heaven's Door; guitar only on the others) *** with Kodo drummer   You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:  http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod020924.mp3  Thank you for your kind support.

This week's Deadpod returns for the second set of the band's performance at the Oakland Coliseum Arena on December 27th, 1989.  Clarence Clemmons makes a surprise appearance on the opening Iko, Iko and adds a great touch here as the band gets the crowd wound up for what is a fine second set. A spacey 'Playin' In the Band' follows - with some extraterrestrial exploration before going into a lovely 'Crazy Fingers'. 'Uncle John's Band' caps off the pre-drums set. The post-drums is highlighted by a truly wonderful 'Morning Dew'.. there was an issue with Jerry's sound at the end but that really doesn't detract from what is a great version.  The boys then surprise the crowd with a double encore -'Johnny B.

Larry also pays tribute to Denny Lane, a musician associated with Wings and the Moody Blues, following Lane's recent passing. Additionally, he delves into the musical significance of the song "Black Queen" by Stephen Stills, its themes, and its rare appearances in Dead concerts. Furthermore, he provides updates and insights into ticket sales for upcoming concerts, specifically for Phish. .Produced by PodConx  Deadhead Cannabis Show - https://podconx.com/podcasts/deadhead-cannabis-showLarry Mishkin - https://podconx.com/guests/larry-mishkinRob Hunt - https://podconx.com/guests/rob-huntJay Blakesberg - https://podconx.com/guests/jay-blakesbergSound Designed by Jamie Humiston - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamie-humiston-91718b1b3/Recorded on Squadcast     Grateful DeadDecember 12, 1969  (54 years ago, tomorrow)ThelmaWest Hollywood, CAWith Stephen StillsGrateful Dead Live at Thelma Theater on 1969-12-10 : Free Borrow & Streaming : Internet Archive  INTRO:               I Know You Rider                           Track #1                           2:10 – 3:42               Every Deadhead knows this song, but what makes this version unusual is that it is a show opener AND is not preceded by China Cat. In the Grateful Dead universe, few song pairings stick out with such adoration and favoritism among the band's legion of fans more than “China Cat Sunflower” > “I Know You Rider”. The Grateful Dead performed the two-song combination over 500 times throughout their 30-year run, making it one of the more dependable mid-set segues capable of launching a show into orbit at any moment thanks to its dance-friendly tempo and lengthy jams transition jams.It makes it that much more special to note that the “China” > “Rider” combination made its first appearance at the legendary Cafe au Go Go in New York City on September 30th, 1969—54 years ago today, and less than a month before the venue closed its doors in October of that year."I Know You Rider" (also "Woman Blues" and "I Know My Rider") is a traditionalblues song that has been adapted by numerous artists. It has appeared in folk, country, and rock guises and is not overly identified with any particular artist. Modern versions can be traced back to Blind Lemon Jefferson's "Deceitful Brownskin Blues", which was released as a single in 1927. It appears in a 1934 book, American Ballads and Folk Songs, by the noted father-and-son musicologists and folklorists John Lomax and Alan Lomax.[2] The book notes that "An eighteen-year old black girl, in prison for murder, sang the song and the first stanza of these blues." The Lomaxes then added a number of verses from other sources and named it "Woman Blue".[2] The music and melody are similar to Lucille Bogan's "B.D. Woman Blues" (c. 1935), although the lyrics are completely different. By the mid-1960s, rock acts had begun to perform or record the song. James Taylor sang it as "Circle Round the Sun" on his 1968 debut album James Taylor).[2]Big Brother and the Holding Company featuring Janis Joplin were performing it in concert; a rendition from 1966 was released in 1984 on the live album Cheaper Thrills.[2] The Grateful Dead's interpretation was a staple of their live shows from the beginning of the band's existence in 1965, where it would soon be performed as a connected song from "China Cat Sunflower" and represented the group's forging a bridge from their psychedelic music to their more traditional country and folk side.[1] This combination was featured on their 1972 triple live album Europe '72.[1] (The Grateful Dead's segue approach was later used by Bruce Hornsby and the Range in the late 1980s, with "I Know You Rider" following their song, "The Red Plains" The combo was first released by the Dead on the original Europe '72 album.  Although Rider can be found on earlier Dead recordings.               1st – Nov. 3, 1965 at Mother's in S.F.              Last – July 8, 1995, Soldier Field              Total 563   No. 4 most played, not counting Drums and Space, China Cat is No. 3 on that list at 564  Show is at Thelma, a nightclub on Hollywood Blvd. with a very uncertain history.  First, it was a Hungarian restaurant called The Little Gypsy, then it became an upscale restaurant called The Golden Violin.  In mid-60's, the owner turned it into a rock club, Galaxy.  Was located in the middle of a block filled with music venues.  To the east, was Whisky a Go Go (most famous of them all), to the west Hamburger Hamlet (for late night munchies).  Right next door was the London Fog where The Doors, in their formative years, had a residency before Jim Morrison's behaviour got them kicked out – moved to the Whisky to become the house band.  Initially, Galaxy's house band was a fledgling Iron Butterfly.  Became Thelma in the fall of 1969. Was a three night run from 12/10 – 12/12.  Night one is the concert featured on Dave's Picks No. 10 – another great concert, but this one has one thing that the Dec. 10th show does not have – Stephen Stills playing with the boys. Recall this past spring we featured Stephen Stills playing with the Dead on April 16, 1983 at Brendan Byrne Arena in NJ when they played Stills' song, Black Queen and one of my favorite versions of Iko ever recorded by the Dead.  The next night they played Love The One Your With.  Only a 14 year gap in between!  SHOW No. 1:     Casey Jones                           Track #8                           2:48 – 4:15 The first tune Stills came on stage for (although some remember him playing in the first set as well). Just like we discussed last week (Fillmore West on 12.4.69), there is a bridge here between primal dead and americana dead.  This show features a mix of primal dead and new americana tunes.  Casey Jones was an entirely different type of song for the Dead but it rocked and Stills seems very comfortable figuring out his place in the mix.  Garcia/Hunter tuneReleased on Workingman's Dead in spring, 1970. First played on June 22, 1969 at a show in Central Park in NYCLast played on March 27, 1993 at the Kickerbocker Arena in Albany NYTotal played 313 times (No. 42) BUT, after 1972 it dropped off the regular set list rotation.  From 1973 till the end, only played 47 times and by the ‘80's it became a rarity that required good luck to catch:                                                                   1982 – 2x                                         1984 – 2x                                         1992 – 3x                                         1993 – 1x I unfortunately never saw it live.  Very disappointing. Closest I came was the '84 show at Merriweather Post pavilion outside of D.C.  I was with a group of friends on summer tour but did not head out for the east coast swing and missed that show.  But my good buddy Rick was there because he took the long car ride that I avoided.  Miss a little, miss a lot.  Article re Stills and Dead SHOW No. 2:     Good Morning Little School Girl                           Track #9                           7:00 – 8:39 We featured this song last week but had to feature it again, because on this version Stills finds his footing and jams along with Garcia and Weir as well as Pig on the harmonica.  A very cool sound.  Pig kills it as usual.  SHOW No. 3:     Black Queen                           Track No. 11                           2:15 – 3:52 We featured this song on the episode earlier this year featuring the April 16, 1983 mash up show.  This is an earlier version and just as down and dirty as the later version.  A great Stills tune that the Dead feel right at home with. As a reminder,Black Queen is a song written by American singer-songwriter Stephen Stills. It was featured on his self-titled debut solo album released in 1970. The song holds a significant place in Stills' body of work, as it explores powerful themes of love, equality, and racial injustice. Let's delve into the meaning behind this iconic song and unveil the message Stephen Stills intended to convey through his heartfelt lyrics. Black Queen is a passionate ode to the African American community, expressing solidarity with their struggle for equality and justice. The song's opening line, “White knights for the black queen, marching to the stirrings of the breeze,” immediately sets the tone for the uplifting and empathetic message throughout the song. Stills paints a vivid picture of a world where individuals of different races join hands to fight against racial discrimination.Throughout the song, Stills calls for unity and emphasizes the importance of embracing diversity. He acknowledges the strength and resilience of the Black community, praising their ability to overcome adversity and stand tall in the face of systemic racism. With lines like “Black queen, your dreams are on the ground,” Stills recognizes the struggles that African Americans have faced but encourages them to keep fighting for their rights and aspirations.This show and April '83 are the only two times the Dead played the song in concert.  SHOW No. 4:     Turn On Your Lovelight                           Track #12                           :46 – 2:25 A very short version of this tune, considering its 1969 and Pig has the lead, but after only a few minutes, they segue into a killer Cryptical/Other One which apparently was a bit too out there for Stills as he leaves the stage at the transition. Still Pig at his finest singing and rapping as only he could do.  A tune that died with Pig until Bobby brought it back in the early ‘80's and it became more of a regular after that although never as much as it was when Pig was around.  Great jamming with Stills in his final number with the band for the night.  OUTRO:              Cosmic Charlie                           Track #17                           Start – end (just about a minute because it cuts out) Released on Aoxomoxoa in June, 1969.  Grateful Dead was known for their unique and poetic songwriting style, and “Cosmic Charlie” is no exception. Released in 1969 on their album “Aoxomoxoa,” this song has captivated fans for decades with its enigmatic lyrics and psychedelic sound. Exploring themes of spirituality, love, and the human experience, “Cosmic Charlie” takes listeners on a sonic journey unlike any other. The meaning behind “Cosmic Charlie” is open to interpretation, as with many of the band's songs. Some believe it was inspired by the vision of a fictional character named Cosmic Charlie, who travels through different dimensions, spreading joy and love. Others see it as a metaphor for the human longing for connection and transcendence. The lyrics, although cryptic at times, convey a sense of wonder and mystery that invites listeners to delve deeper into their own consciousness. The overall message of “Cosmic Charlie” seems to be one of embracing the cosmic and spiritual aspects of life. It encourages listeners to let go of their inhibitions, explore the unknown, and seek connection with the universe. The song invites individuals to tap into their inner selves and discover the hidden realms of existence. Very rarely played by the Dead.  Only a total of 45 times.1st – Jan. 16, 1969, Robertson Gymnasium at UC Santa Barbara, Isla Vista, CALast  - Sept. 25, 1976, Cap Center in Landover Maryland. Played 20 times in 1969, 18 times in 1970 and one time in 1971.  The tune then went on hiatus until 1976 when it was played a total of 6 times between June and September.  Thereafter, a tune the deadheads literally begged the Dead to play again.  Around 1983 or 1984, a group started asking for signatures on a petition to the Dead asking them to play the song again.  They would also hand out cards with the song's lyrics so “when” the Dead played it, the Deadheads would be able to sing along.  Alas, they just became Dead trinkets in the same cigar box as my ticket stubs because the Dead never did play it again. Sorry this is a “cut” version of this version, but it's still great music and as any Deadhead who never heard it live would agree, this would have been an amazing tune to hear so even just a little of it is worth the listen.  Enjoy

In this episode, Big Sarge talks with The Athletic/New York Times NBA beat writer Kelly Iko about his journey of becoming one of the most well-respected journalists in the NBA circles. Iko also talks about the needs of the Houston Rockets as they begin "Phase Two" of their rebuilding process and gives his thoughts on new head coach Ime Udoka. With the NBA Draft approaching, Iko gives his thoughts on if the Rockets should stay in their current position of fourth overall selection. Sarge also tries to convince Iko that Jabari Smith Jr. may be a better overall player in the future than Victor Wembanyama.

The heroic romance is one of the West's most enduring narratives, found everywhere, from religion and myth to blockbuster films and young adult literature. Within this story, adolescent girls are not, and cannot be, the heroes. They are, at best, the hero's bride, a prize he wins for slaying monsters. Crucially, although the girl's exclusion from heroic selfhood affects all girls, it does not do so equally- whiteness and able-bodiedness are taken as markers of heightened, fantasy femininity. Female Heroes in Young Adult Fantasy Fiction: Reframing Myths of Adolescent Girlhood (Bloomsbury, 2023) by Dr. Leah Phillips explores how the young female-heroes of mythopoeic YA, a Tolkienian-inspired genre drawing on myth's world-creating power and YA's liminal potential, disrupt the conventional heroic narrative. These heroes, such as Tamora Pierce's Alanna the Lioness, Daine the Wildmage, and Marissa Meyer's Cinder and Iko, offer a model of being-hero, an embodied way of living and being in this world that disrupts the typical hero's violent hierarchy, isolating individuality, and erasure of difference. In doing so, they push the boundaries of what it means to be a hero, a girl, and even human. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.
