"A Night of Rock and Roll Remembrance: Grateful Dead at MSG, 1990"Larry Mishkin pays tribute to Jimi Hendrix, reflecting on his iconic rock career and tragic passing 53 years ago. He shares anecdotes about Hendrix's influence on rock music and highlights the infamous 27 Club, a group of rock legends who died at the age of 27. The episode also previews upcoming music events, including Fish Fest and Tedeschi Trucks Band's shows with special guests like Warren Haynes and Norah Jones, promising an exciting lineup for music enthusiasts..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-blakesbergMeetLoaf Website - https://meetloaftribute.com/performance-schedule/Recorded on Squadcast Grateful Dead, September 18, 1990, MSG, NYCGrateful Dead Live at Madison Square Garden on 1990-09-18 : Free Borrow & Streaming : Internet Archive This show was on the 20th anniversay of Jimi Hendrix's death.  Interesting because I see it in headlines re this show, but they really didn't play anything Jimi related as far as I can tell and none of the comments even mention that.  Neverthless, it is a noteworthy anniversary (53 years he has been gone, almost double his life span of 27, he's in that club). Dead also did a show on this date in 1970, the day Jimi died but when I  checked that show there was no acknowledgement (that I could hear) of Jimi dying but of course, back then with no interenet, they may not even have known on that date anyway. Nevertheless, Jimi is Jimi so I'm openkng the episode with him on the intro and then switching over to the Dead show.  INTRO:               Foxey Lady                           Jimi Hendrix                           Miami Pop Festival, 1968 (great You Tube video , check it out)                           The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Foxey Lady (Miami Pop 1968) - YouTube                           Start – 1:30                            One of my favorite openings of any rock song out there.  Just loud Jimi from the outset,  Even if you are not a big Jimi fan, you may also recognize this because of how distinctive it is.               Jimi born on Nov. 27, 1942 in Seattle              Died in 1970 in London              Member of the “27” club along with; Brian Jones (Stones), Alan Wilson (Canned Heat), Jim Morrison (Doors),Janis Joplin,Kurt Cobain (Nirvana),Pig PenAmy WinehouseDave Alexander (Stooges – with Iggy Pop)Peter Ham (Badfinger) Created three of the most famous albums in rock:               Are you Experienced              Axis: Bold as Love              Electric Ladyland Jimi died 53 years ago today. Hendrix aspirated his own vomit and died of asphyxia while intoxicated with barbiturates.Still considered the greatest rock guitarist ever although there are a few who could give him a serious run for the money.  Dead Great show, Vince's third show (started on 9.7.90) and Bruce Hornsby's 3d as well.  Show known for all of its epic jams which I will primarily be focusing on. SHOW #1:          Minglelwood Blues                           Track #2                           3:15 – 4:23                            Perenial tune that the Dead played from Day one (and even before) through the end.  Check out Bruce's jam on this clip and then band comes crashing back in.  Very cool. SHOW #2:          To Lay Me Down                           Track #7                           Start – 1:33                            I know I have mostly been featuring jams, but Jerry's vocals are so beautiful here, with great crowd reaction, that on this one I had to go with the vocals.  A nine minute version of one of Jerry and Hunter's  prettiest ballads.  When Jerry's voice is on, like here, you can make a strong argument is is their best. SHOW #3:          Promised Land                           Track #8                           3:33 – 5:00                           Love this song whether it opens the show or closes the set as here.  Just a rocker written by Chuck Berry while he was in jail – used the prison library atlas to help him pick out the geographic route taken by the “Poor Boy” on his trip from Norfolk VA to LA via bus, plain and the houstontown people who care a thing about him and won't let him down. But check out this jam at the end of the song.  Normally breaks right off after the final lyrics but today they just jam it out – the spirit of Jimi? SHOW #4:          Foolish Heart (jam out of – from So Many Roads Boxed Set)                           Track # 11                           6:20 – 7:45                            Classic Dead jam that got a lot of attention when it was included in the Dead's original box set, So Many Roads, released a long time ago (Nov. 7, 1999) as a separate track actually titled, “Jam Out Of Foolish Heart”.  At their improvisational best here. Strong Other One foreshadowing which plays out as advertised after a strong drums and funky Space.  The whole second set just rolls along.  A good night to be in MSG seeing the boys.  OUTRO:              Knockin On Heaven's Door                           Track # 18                           Start – 1:30                            Again, the music intro jam is so great that's what I am featuring.  Be sure to check out Bruce Hornsby's jumping in on the accordion!  Really nice Bob Dylan cover, Jerry played it for years.  Was released on his Run For The Roses album.

Broken Oars Podcast returns with what might be called 'The Performance-Enhancing Drugs and Rowing Culture' Episode - if we went in for such things as informative titles. * Following a recent positive test being returned in British Rowing, rather than risk us talking about spaniels (again), we enlisted the help of an expert in the field, the exceedingly knowledgeable Dr. Phil Hurst.  * Phil is a Senior Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Psychology, at the School of Psychology and Life Sciences at Canterbury Christ Church University. An early-career interdisciplinary researcher with specialism in placebo effects on sports performance and psychosocial antecedents of anti-doping behaviours, between 2017 and 2018, Philip worked as a research associate at the University of Birmingham where he undertook two projects commissioned by the World Anti-Doping Agency and International Olympic Committee.    Highlights of his research include looking at the effects, or otherwise, of legal performance enhancing substances, the placebo effect, and the reasons why individuals might be more or less likely to use PEDs in competition.   He's also a Northerner, which is a bonus in anyone's book.   (This might explain why Lewin (the Southern one) conducted this interview alone: scared of being outnumbered by two articulate Northerner, he slipped AJ the wrong log-in time ... ) * Neverthless, flying solo the fast lad had a wide-ranging and informative chat with Dr. Hurst, covering:   - The psycho-social reasons why people turn to PEDs.   - Why athletes and organisations use the TUE mandate to push the line on where clean sport ends and doping begins.   - Why some sports have a history and culture of doping; and why sport as part of the entertainment industry may be feeding it; with the impact of living in an increasingly image-conscious world playing into the use of PEDs.   - Why performance-enhancing drugs don't necessarily work, but the placebo effect they provide does - and how to recreate that by cultivating positive mindsets and pre-performance rituals to replace the mental boost PED's offer some athletes.   - Why rowing globally is no better or worse than other sports, but how and why British Rowing's culture and history of hard work = results have helped protect the sport.   - Phil highlights Redgrave and Pinsent's 'we work hard' approach as one that not only aligns with Olympic values, but which carried and flagged the credibility and integrity of British Rowing to the wider world of sport.   - Noting the importance of cultural narratives in defining whether athletes and various sports use or don't use PED's, Phil suggests that the perpetuation of the narrative 'we succeed by hard work' from the top-down and the bottom-up has had a preventative effect that has kept British Rowing cleaner than its peers, warning that Robert Strachan's recent positive test means we can't rest on our laurels. * This episode is a must for anyone in rowing and sport concerned with protecting clean athletes and clean sport, and provides real insight into the whys, more than the hows and whats, of illegitimate performance enhancement in sport.   * Bowside holding ...

Links An article in The New York Times, in 1903, referenced in The Perilous Life of Symphony Orchestras, by Robert J. Flanagan: The permanent orchestra season has, as usual, been financially a bad one all over the country. With the end of April… come the bills for those who pay the piper…. There is always a deficit, which public-spirited guarantors are called upon to pay year after year. A permanent orchestra, it seems pretty welle stablished by American experience, is not at present a paying institution, and is not likely immediately to become so…. [Neverthless,] the prevailing note of the guarantors of the America Orchestras is one of hopefulness. Things are coming on; the public is being educated; it will support the orchestras in larger and larger numbers till they are finally… self-supporting.

The Doomsday Machine. If you ask fans of The Original Series to name their favorite episodes, invariably “The Doomsday Machine” comes up. Even James Doohan named the episode his favorite of the series. In 1968, “The Doomsday Machine” received a Hugo Award nomination for Best Dramatic Presentation; but not all are in love with the story. D.C. Fontana named the episode her least favorite of the series, and the story's author, Norman Spinrad, has expressed disappointment with its translation to screen. Neverthless, "The Doomsday Machine" remains one of the essential hours of TOS. In this episode of The Ready Room we're joined by Daniel Handlin, Drew Stewart, and Suzanne Abbott to find out where we stand on this story of a captain (well… a commodore) destroyed by the loss of his crew, the Moby-Dick allegory, the social message that H-Bombs are bad, the origins of the planet killer itself, and our thoughts on the remastered version of the episode. In our news segment we learn about Five Year Mission's Las Vegas adventure, get technical with some advancements in the field of tractor beams and their possible applications, and look back at Star Trek III: The Search for Spock on the film's 30th anniversary.

Galaxy clusters are the largest gravitationally bound systems in the universe. Clusters consist of three components: galaxies, gas, and dark matter. The galaxies themselves contribute the least, at most a few percent, to the total mass. The remainder consists of diffuse, hot gas (the intracluster medium, or ICM) and an unseen component which is needed to explain the gravitational stability of clusters (the dark matter). The two most obvious means of studying clusters of galaxies are by observing the optical light emitted from the constituent galaxies or the X-ray emission from the ICM. Clusters of galaxies, bound ensambles of hundreds of galaxies, are an ideal environment to study galaxy evolution and to learn how this is affected by different physical processes: gravity, starbursts and star formation, interactions with the intergalactic medium and galaxy-galaxy encounters. Since the very early works of Hubble in the thirties, it has been recognized that galaxies in dense environments differ systematically from those in low-density regions in their morphological types, stellar populations and gaseous content. When during the history of the Universe and why such environmental differences were established is currently one of the subjects of most intensive investigation in the international astrophysical community. On the other hand, clusters can teach us a great deal about cosmology. The distributions of galaxies on the sky shows a net-like structure in which thin walls and filaments surround large voids. The galaxy clusters are the nodes of this network. Therefore, they trace out the Large-Scale Structure (LSS) of the universe and can be used to study the LSS formation. Moreover, if clusters provide a 'fair sample' of the universe, then the fraction of their mass in baryons should equal the universal baryon fraction, known as $Omega_b/Omega_m$. Moreover, the evolution of cluster number density with redshift can determine the mass density parameter, known as $Omega_M$, and possibly determine the equation of state (and nature) of the dark energy believed to be causing the expansion of the universe to accelerate. Thus, galaxy clusters have a twofold importance: first as laboratories of galaxy formation and evolution, and second as cosmological tool. The aim of this project is to study galaxy clusters from these two perspectives. For this purpose we use the largest optical and X-ray surveys ever realized, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the Rosat All Sky Survey (RASS), respectively, to conduct a multiwavelenght study of the properties of galaxy clusters. The project is called RASS-SDSS Galaxy Cluster Survey reflecting the name of the two big surveys used for this work. All the analyses are performed on two cluster samples specially created for the survey: the X-ray selected RASS-SDSS galaxy cluster catalog and a subsample of optically selected, isolated and spectroscopically confirmed Abell clusters. The project consists of two parts. The aim of the first part is to understand which role play the gravitational processes, galaxy mergers and collisions and the interaction with ICM in the process of galaxy formation and evolution. For this purpose, we study the variations of several properties of the cluster galaxy population such as the luminosity and spatial distribution, the morphological type mix, the Star Formation Rate (SFR) and stellar mass as a function of the environmental conditions and the cluster global properties. Our detailed analysis of the cluster individual and composite luminosity functions reveals that the LF clearly shows a bimodal behavior with an upturn and a evident steepening in the faint magnitude range in any SDSS band. The LF is well fitted by the sum of two Schechter functions. The bright end of the LF is found to be universal in all the clusters. The faint end of the LF is much steeper and varies significantly from system to system, when calculated within a fixed metric aperture. The variations are not ramdom however. The more massive a cluster, the lower its fraction of dwarf galaxies. This effect disappears when the cluster LF is calculated within the physical size of the system, as the virial radius ($r_{200}$). This indicates that the previously observed variations are due to aperture effects caused by the observed increase of the fraction of dwarf galaxies with the clustercentric distance. Our conclusion is that the shape of the cluster LF is universal in all the magnitude ranges when the LF is calculated within the virial region. Moreover, the analysis of the composite cluster LF per morphological type, shows that the upturn and the steepening at the faint end of the LF is caused by dwarf early type galaxies. These systems are quite rare in low density regions and appear to be a typical cluster population. We provide evidence that the process responsible for creating the excess population of dwarf early type galaxies in clusters is a threshold process that occurs when the density exceeds $sim 500$ times the critical density of the Universe. We interpret our results in the context of the 'harassment' scenario, where faint early-type cluster galaxies are predicted to be the descendants of tidally-stripped late-type galaxies. In the same context, we investigate whether the cluster total star formation rate ($Sigma SFR$) depends on the cluster global properties for a sample of 90 very nearby clusters. The total cluster SFR is given by the sum of the SFR of all the cluster members within the virial region. It is found to be proportional to the number of cluster galaxies involved ($N_{gal}$). The best relation between the total SFR and the cluster mass reflects the $N_{gal}-M$ relation, which is a power law with exponent smaller than 1. As a consequence, the more massive a cluster, the lower its number of cluster galaxies and total SFR per unit mass. The mean SFR per cluster galaxy ($Sigma SFR/N_{gal}$) is constant troughout our cluster sample and does not depend on the global properties of the system. Moreover, in order to account for projection effects, we study the galaxy surface number density profile in our cluster sample. We find that clusters of different mass exibit different profiles. In the low and intermediate mass systems the best fit is provided by a core King profile, with the core radius decreasing with cluster mass, until, at the highest cluster masses, the profile is better represented by a cuspy Navarro, Frenk & White profile. All these different analysis converge to the conclusion that the global properties of the cluster galaxy population, such as the luminosity distribution, the galaxy type mix, the mean and total cluster SFR are only weakly dependent on the cluster mass and X-ray luminosity. This suggests that the gravitational processes and the interaction galaxy-ICM are not likely to affect those properties of the cluster galaxy population. Only the spatial distribution of the cluster galaxies depends on the cluster mass, probably reflecting the different relaxation status of systems of different masses. Instead, the variations of the LF and the galaxy type mix with the clustercentric distance reflect a link between the galaxy formation process and the galaxy-galaxy encounters, as suggested by the 'harassment' scenario. In the second part of the thesis, galaxy clusters are used as cosmological tool. The aim of this work is to elucidate which component, galaxies or ICM, traces better the cluster mass in order to understand whether different selection methods select the same cluster population. This will clarify which bias is introduced by the different selection methods in the results of the cosmological tests. This will clarify which bias is introduced by the different selection methods in the results of the cosmological tests. For this porpuse, we analyse as a first step the relation between the optical ($L_{op}$) and the X-ray ($L_X$) luminosity, respectively, to the cluster mass in the X-ray selected RASS-SDSS cluster sample. The main motivation in deriving these dependences is to evaluate $L_{op}$ and $L_X$, as predictors of the cluster mass and to compare the quality of the two quantities as predictors. Our analysis reveals that $L_{op}$ is a key measure of the cluster mass. In this respect, the optical luminosity performs even better than the X-ray luminosity, which suggests that the mass distribution of a cluster is better traced by cluster galaxies rather than by intracluster gas. On the other hand, our conclusion is at odds with the generally accepted view that a cluster main physical properties are more easily revealed in the X-ray than in the optical. Such a view was established at an epoch when the lack of optical wide field surveys precluded a reliable determination of the optical luminosities of a large sample of clusters. With the advent of the Sloan Digital Sky survey, this problem is now overcome. The application of the same analysis to an optically selected cluster sample (the Abell subsample) confirms the result. Neverthless, the Abell sample comprises a subpopulation of systems which scatter significantly in the $L_X-M$ relation and appear to be extremely X-ray underluminous (on average one order of magnitude) with regard to their mass. On the other hand, these systems do follow the general scaling relation between optical luminosity and virial mass. Therefore, we call them 'Abell X-ray Underluminous clusters' or AXU clusters for short. To understand the particular nature of these systems, we examine the properties of their galaxy population. The velocity distribution of the AXU clusters is Gaussian within the virial region but is leptokurtic (more centrally concentrated than a Gaussian) in the outskirts, as expected for the systems in accretion. In addition, the AXU clusters have a higher fraction of blue galaxies in the external region and show a marginally significant paucity of galaxies at the center. Our results seem to support the interpretation suggested by Bower et al. (1997) that the AXU clusters are systems in formation undergoing a phase of mass accretion. Their low X-ray luminosity should be due to the still accreting Intracluster gas or to an ongoing merging process. Our results give supports to the conclusion of Donahue et al. (2002) concerning the biases inherent in the selection of galaxy clusters in different wavebands. While the optical selection is prone to substantial projection effects, also the X-ray selection is not perfect or not simple to characterize. The existence of X-ray underluminous clusters, even with large masses, makes it difficult to reach the needed completeness in mass for cosmological studies. Clearly, a multi-waveband approach is needed for optimizing the completeness and reliability of clusters samples. The 'RASS-SDSS Galaxy Clusters Survey' series comprises 7 scientific papers which are inserted as part of the thesis. Four of the papers are accepted for pubblication on a scientific Journal ('Astronomy & Astrophysics') and three are submitted.
