Podcast appearances and mentions of jim grey

In what is a record for the longest time between recording and release, Episode 77 is finally here!  Recorded more than 2 weeks ago, in this episode we follow up Episode 76 with a second episode about "stuff we know".  Before they were podcast superstars, Theo, Mike, and Paul have blogs and we wanted to share some behind the scenes secrets of the wonderful world of blogging. Joining us are fellow bloggers, Peggy Marsh, Alex Luyckx, Eric Jason, Dan Cuny, and Jim Grey who tell us their origin stories, what their process is for how they choose what to write about, and what's next for their blogs.  Joining us are non bloggers, A.J. Gentile and Will Pinkham who get inspired and consider making their own blog! As a group, we also discuss the state of blogging, has the luster of long form reviews been replaced by byte sized content from TikTok and Instagram Reels?  Alex discusses his experiences with Adox Scala and black and white reversal developers, Dan Cuny talks about his collection of vintage film negatives that he scans and posts online, and Paul reveals a guy he found in China that can modify standard Hasselblad backs, turning them into Hasselblad XPan sized panoramic backs. Because of a combination of regular delays along with a laptop crash which required this episode to be edited from beginning to end twice, Episode 78 has already been recorded before Episode 77 was ready for release.  Paul, Theo, and Mike had an intimate discussion with Johnny Martyr, A.J. Gentile, and Miles Libak about shooting medium format, Mike's favorite Japanese 4.5x6 folding camera, and how the process of professionally shooting film in the digital age has changed from before. Episode 79 will be all about medium format SLRs.  If you're interested in Bronica, Mamiya, Kowa, Norita, Praktisix, (but hot Hasselblad) SLRs, this is the episode for you!  We will record on Monday, October 14th at 7pm Central Daylight Time and 8pm Eastern Daylight Time. The guys and I rarely know where each episode is going to go until it happens, so if you'd like to join us on a future episode, be sure to look out for our show announcements on our Camerosity Podcast Facebook page, the Camerosity Discord server, and right here on mikeeckman.com. We usually record every other Monday and announcements, along with the Zoom link are typically shared 2-3 days in advance.

With Tom Brady's future still very much in question, we begin diving into some potential replacements. And after the successes the Bucs had over the last two years, the big fish or the "sexy names" that Bucs fans want to hear about are Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson. In this episode, James dives into both players and how they got to this point, how do they fit in with the Bucs - and Bruce Arians' offense - and what it might potentially cost. Not only that, but what are some reasons that getting Russ or Rodgers won't work out for the Buccaneers nor would it work out for the Seahawks or Packers.Tom Brady also released his latest episode of "Let's Go!" with Jim Grey during the recording of this episode so I give my live reaction to his latest comments regarding retirement or his potential return.Follow & Subscribe to the Locked On Bucs Podcast on these platforms…Apple: https://apple.co/3iOePFkSpotify: https://spoti.fi/3BwlScYAudacy: https://bit.ly/3FAcIhVGoogle: https://bit.ly/2X0IEdSMegaphone: https://bit.ly/3uZOcSoFollow Locked On Podcast Network on Twitter: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNetworkCheck out all of our NFL Coverage: linktr.ee/lockedonnflFollow James on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JYarcho_BUCSFollow David on Twitter: https://twitter.com/DHarrison82Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Episode 37 of Prog Notes! In just ten short years, Australian prog metal group Caligula's Horse has crafted five studio albums that have quickly given them notoriety as one of the most innovative bands in the genre. Destin and Drew discuss their highly praised album, Rise Radiant, with the writing duo of this remarkable band, Jim Grey (vocals) and Sam Vallen (guitars). In addition to Drew embarrassing them with reviews, Jim and Sam share their thoughts on the nature of “progressive” music and emphasize the importance of purpose when writing each musical section. Perhaps it's the combination of Jim's emphasis on stimulus-response and Sam's emphasis on audiation that makes this album so fresh. Or perhaps it's the musical motifs meticulously woven into each track. Maybe it's the tenderness of the lyrics on gentler tracks juxtaposed against the crunchy guitars and complex rhythms on more aggressive tracks.

On this week’s edition of Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, pedals in for another conversation with Chris Glasser, Executive Director of Bicycling For Louisville, a community partner of Forward Radio. This time, we focus on state-wide transportation policy and its impact on Louisville. KYTC’s SHIFT plan: In 2016, Gov. Matt Bevin directed the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) to develop a process to better allocate the Commonwealth's limited transportation funds. The Strategic Highway Investment Formula for Tomorrow (SHIFT) was the result (https://transportation.ky.gov/SHIFT). Chris Glasser created an interactive map showing how SHIFT would impact Jefferson County and published it in a May 2019 Insider Louisville article entitled "State SHIFTs Priorities Away From Louisville’s Transportation Master Plan.” You can explore the map at https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=15Aahr75LpSSVkM8T9HJUOe5ybRkq04wk&usp=sharing We also discuss the potential of a newly elected Democratic governor on state transportation policy and Beshear’s appointment of Jim Grey as the new Transportation Secretary, in spite of an attempted Republican power-grab bill to strip him of the power to name a state Transportation Secretary. More about that is in Marcus Green's in-depth article on WDRB at https://www.wdrb.com/in-depth/bill-would-strip-kentucky-governor-s-power-to-name-state/article_792d0f44-0fa1-11ea-b858-8f5001b2d491.html) Lastly, we discuss the impact of e-scooters in response to Emma Rubin’s December 4th cover article in the LEO Weekly: Not Just For Fun: The Role Of E-Scooters In Urban Planning: https://www.leoweekly.com/2019/12/not-just-for-fun-the-role-of-e-scooters-in-urban-planning/ Learn more about Bicycling For Louisville and join at http://bicyclingforlouisville.org As always, our feature is followed by your community action calendar for the week, so get your calendars out and get ready to take action for sustainability NOW!

Welcome to the History of Computing Podcast, where we explore the history of information technology. Because by understanding the past, we're able to be prepared for the innovations of the future! Todays episode is on Digital Equipment Corporation, or DEC.  DEC was based in Maynard Massachusetts and a major player in the computer industry from the 1950s through the 1990s. They made computers, software, and things that hooked into computers. My first real computer was a DEC Alpha. And it would be over a decade before I used 64-bit technology again.  DEC was started in 1957 by Ken Olsen, Stan Olsen, and Harlan Anderson of the MIT Lincoln Laboratory using a $70,000 loan because they could sell smaller machines than the big mainframes to users where output and realtime operation were more important than performance. Technology was changing so fast and there were so few standards for computers that investors avoided them. So they decided to first ship modules, or transistors that could be put on circuit boards and then ship systems. They were given funds and spent the next few years building a module business to fund a computer business.  IBM was always focused on big customers. In the 1960s, this gave little DEC the chance to hit the smaller customers with their PDP-8, the first successful mini-computer, at the time setting customers back around $18,500. The “Straight-8” as it was known was designed by Edson de Castro and was about the size of a refrigerator, weighing in at 250 pounds. This was the first time a company could get a computer for less than $20k and DEC sold over 300,000 of them! The next year came the 8/s. No, that's not an iPhone model. It only set customers back $10k. Just imagine the sales team shows up at your company talking about the discrete transistors, the transistor-transistor logic, or TTL. And it wouldn't bankrupt you like that IBM. The sales pitch writes itself. Sign me up! What really sold these though, was the value engineering. They were simpler. Sure, programming was a little harder, and more code. Sure, sometimes that caused the code to overflow the memory. But at the cost savings, you could hire another programmer! The rise of the compiler kinda' made that a negligible issue anyway. The CPU had only four 12-bit registers. But it could run programs using the FORTRAN compiler anruntime, or DECs FOCAL interpreter. Or later you could use PAL-III Assembly, BASIC, or DIBOL.  DEC also did a good job of energizing their user base. The Digital Equipment Corporation User Society was created in 1961 by Edward Fredkin and was subsidized by DEC. Here users could trade source code and documentation, with two DECUS US symposia per year - and there people would actually trade code and later tapes. It would later merge with HP and other groups during the merger era and is alive today as the Connect User Group Community, with over 70,000 members! It is still independent today. The User Society was an important aspect of the rise of DEC and of the development of technology and software for mini computers. The feeling of togetherness through mutual support helped keep the costs of vendor support down while also making people feel like they weren't alone in the world. It's also important as part of the history of free software, something we'll talk about in more depth in a later episode. The PDP continued to gain in popularity until 1977, when the VAX came along. The VAX brought with it the virtual address extension for which it derives its name. This was really the advent of on-demand paged virtual memory, although that had been initially adopted by Prime Computer without the same level of commercial success. This was a true 32-bit CISC, or Complex Instruction Set Computer. It ran Digital's VAX/VMS which would later be called OpenVMS; although some would run BSD on it, which maintained VAX support until 2016. This thing set standards in 1970s computing. You know Millions of instructions per second (MIPS) - the VAX was the benchmark. The performance was on par with the IBM System/360. The team at DEC was iterating through chips at a fast rate. Over the next 20 years, they got so good that Soviet engineers bought them just to try and reverse engineer the chips. In fact it got to the point that “when you care enough to steal the very best” was etched into microprocessor die. DEC sold another 400,000 of the VAX. They must have felt on top of the world when they took the #2 computer company spot! DEC was the first computer company with a website, launching dec.com in 85. The DEC Western Research Library started to build a RISC chip called Titan in 1982, meant to run Unix. Alan Kotok and Dave Orbits started designing a 64-bit chip to run VMS (maybe to run Spacewar faster). Two other chips, HR-32 and CASCADE were being designed in 1984. And Prism began in 1985. With all of these independent development efforts, turf wars stifled the ability to execute. By 1988, DEC canceled the projects. By then Sun had SPARC, and were nipping at the heels.  Something else was happening. DEC made mini-computers. Those were smaller than mainframes. But microcomputers showed up in the 1980s with he first IBM PC shipping in 1981. But by the early 90s they too were 32-bit. DEC was under the gun to bring the world into 64-bit. The DEC Alpha started at about the same time (if not in the same meeting as the termination of the Prism project. It would not be released in 1992 and while it was a great advancement in computing, it came into a red ocean where there were vendors competing to set the standard of the computers used at every level of the industry. The old chips could have been used to build microcomputers and at a time when IBM was coming into the business market for desktop computers and starting to own it, DEC stayed true to the microcomputer business.  Meanwhile Sun was growing, open architectures were becoming standard (if not standardized), and IBM was still a formidable beast in the larger markets. The hubris. Yes, DEC had some of the best tech in the market. But they'd gotten away from value engineering the solutions customers wanted.  Sales slumped through the 1990s. Linus Torvalds wrote Linux on a DEC Alpha in the mid-late 90s. Alpha chips would work with Windows and other operating systems but were very expensive. X86 chips from Intel were quickly starting to own the market (creating the term Wintel). Suddenly DEC wasn't an industry leader. When you've been through those demoralizing times at a company, it's hard to get out of a rut. Talent leaves. Great minds in computing like Radia Perlman. She invented Spanning Tree Protocol. Did I mention that DEC played a key role in making ethernet viable. They also invented clustering. More brain drain - Jim Grey (he probably invented half the database terms you use), Leslie Lamport (who wrote LaTex), Alan Eustace (who would go on to become the Senior VP of Engineering and then Senior VP of Knowledge at Google), Ike Nassi (chief scientist at SAP), Jim Keller (who designed Apple's A4/A5), and many, many others.  Fingers point in every direction. Leadership comes and goes. By 2002 it was clear that a change was needed. DEC was acquired by Compaq in the largest merger in the computer industry at the time, in part to get the overseas markets that DEC was well entrenched in. Compaq started to cave from too many mergers that couldn't be wrangled into an actual vision. So they later merged with HP in 2002, continuing to make PDP, VAX, and Alpha servers. The compiler division was sold to Intel, and DEC goes down as a footnote in history.  Innovative ideas are critical to a company surviving after the buying tornadoes. Strong leaders must reign in territorialism, turf wars and infighting in favor of actually shipping products. And those should be products customers want. Maybe even products you value engineered to meet them where they're at as DEC did in their early days.

"As with Caligula's Horse’s acclaimed album ‘Bloom’ before it, ‘In Contact’ sees vocalist Jim Grey and lead guitarist Sam Vallen collaborating closely on the music and lyrics. Vallen comments: “In our creative process every idea is scrutinized, deconstructed, and rebuilt in a way that one of us, alone, could never achieve. We’re one another’s harshest critic, but fortunately we’ve done this for long enough now that our inspiration draws us in a similar direction - we can finish each other’s musical sentences, so to speak. And we're lucky that's the case, since In Contact proved to be a much more ambitious undertaking than anything we’d conceived of in the past.”" Ben talked to Sam Vallen about Caligula's Horse's upcoming Australian and European tours and the response to their latest album, In Contact.

HEAVY chats to Jim Grey from Caligula's Horse about their brand new Australian tour.

Jim Grey, lead singer for Caligula's Horse, takes us through a prog trip sharing 5 of his favorite prog songs and influences.

Noyan is away, so Eden hosts fellow blog editor, Nick Cusworth! This gives the two opportunity to talk about stuff that usually doesn't come up on the cast which they use to shine a light on Jim Grey from Caligula's Horse releasing a video for the A Capela segment on their latest album, Plini releasing a new track, and a deep dive on the changes undergoing the post rock scene, recommended bands that make post rock or metal and the close knit networks that make these scenes happen! Along the way, they mention bands like Man Mountain, This Patch of Sky, Town Portal, VASA, Rumour Cubes, The Physics House Band, Alpha Male Tea Party, Mountain, Below a Silent Sky, Flora, Soldat Hans and more! Then, it's time for the bad news. They start off with surprising opinions revolving around gun control, first from Run the Jewels' Killer Mike and then from Taylor Swift. They then move on to the click-bait article published on The Washington Post which claims that physical sales exceeded digital ones in 2017. While that's technically true, the two analyze why that happened and get pretty personal on vinyl and CDs! Lastly, there's a trio of terrible politics from the metal community. The first is the ridicule in the wake of The Faceless breaking up again, and what that says about the community's terrible perspectives on addiction. Then, there's another statement from Decapitated who totally by accident (allegedly) misinterpret and represent the facts of their trial again. Finally, there's the awful news of Inquisition's Dagon involvement with child pornography and, surprise, the community's desire to protect him. Cool people time includes The Witcher 3, CW's Black Lightning and Ninefox Gambit!

Angelo is joined by Tom and they discuss Deontay Wilder's big win over Luis Ortiz. They talk about why the rules don't apply to Deontay Wilder, what they learned from the fight, and why Wilder is now endearing to fans all of a sudden. Tom explains his scoring, talks about what happened that had Jim Grey yelling, and the two predict how a Wilder and Joshua fight play out. Plus, what's next for Luis Ortiz, Jose Uzcategui's win over Andre Dirrell, Sergey Kovalev's position at light heavyweight, Dmitry Bivol's win over Sullivan Barrera, and more. Plus previews of Mikey Garcia vs Sergey Lipinets, Oscar Valdez vs Scott Quigg, Regis Prograis vs Julius Indongo, and much more.

"Hailing from Brisbane, Australia, Caligula’s Horse is a progressive alternative rock powerhouse. Their unique tapestry of progressive metal laced with raw rock power is at once fluid, monumental, and striking, offering a wide audience a broad palate of unforgettable moments and timeless music." Ben talked to Jim Grey about their new album, In Contact, the concept behind it and the dos and don'ts of concept albums. Aired 7th September 2017.

I was walking thru the Detroit Historical Museum when Wendy Rose Bice, and Gail Greenberg said hello and asked me if I was Emily Gail. It was fun to have them recollect some of their memories of our efforts in the 70's-80s with "say nice things about Detroit" and the Emily Detroit Runs. Then I discovered Wendy Executive Director of the Jewish Historical Society of Michigan and Gail Senior Staff Assoc with the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit were responsible for the wonderful new exhibit I had enjoyed a few days earlier titled "Chasing Dreams Baseball and Becoming American". I was so pleased to have them take the time to tape a segment for the Emily T Gail Show espnhawaii.com about the exhibit and related family events they have planned which we talk about in our interview. Meanwhile ....Here is some of the info about the exhibit from a nice story in the Oakland press by Sari Cicurel: The Jewish Historical Society of Michigan brought the exhibit to the Detroit Historical Museum and it will run through November 27. The exhibit is presented by West Bloomfield-based Jewish Historical Society of Michigan and the Detroit Historical Society. The exhibit celebrates heroes and pioneers like Hank Greenberg, Sandy Koufax, Jackie Robinson Roberto Clemente and Ichiro Suzuki. At the same time that baseball has reflected the best of America, it has also been a mirror for challenges the nation has faced, such as racism, anti-Semitism, class stratifications, the challenges of urbanization. During the three months some special events included: • A Conversation about baseball and baseball history with Mike “Stoney” Stone, 97.1 The the event with Mike “Stoney” Stone was a casual evening featuring baseball-themed food and baseball history at the Detroit Historical Museum. • A Family Day took place presented by the Jewish Historical Society of Michigan and the Michigan Jewish Sports Foundation. Fans of all ages practiced their play-by-play radio and television skills in a Baseball Broadcast Booth, a special presentation chatting up baseball trivia and stats with a program entitled, “Old Jews Talking Baseball,” featuring Max Lapides, Bob Matthews, Irwin Cohen and Jim Grey and baseball-themed food. The Detroit Historical Museum is located at 5401 Woodward Ave., Detroit. For more information, visit michjewishhistory.org or call 248-432-5517. As on personal note. I am so grateful I joined the Detroit Historical Society. I had no idea how much goes on at the Detroit Historical Museum and Dossin Museum that fits my lifestyle and interest. The nice invites to exhibit openings, the newsletter is one of the best I have seen and read cover to cover. Less than $5 a month. detroithistorical.org
