In today's episode, Modern Divorce Host Billie Tarascio, mom to teens in Gilbert, brings in Richard Lyons, a trial attorney who is the first to file civil charges against the Gilbert Goons, their parents, and the schools for not taking appropriate actions to stop the violent bullying that hurt so many, and caused Preston Lord's death. The so-called Gilbert Goons have been entertaining themselves by randomly beating up local teens in Phoenix's East Valley . While some criminal charges have been filed, law enforcement and prosecutors have not done nearly enough to satisfy parents and residents in the local communities. It's the first long interview by Lyons, who explains the drivers behind the civil lawsuits against parents of the Goons, and the Chandler School District. The $6 million lawsuit goes after a host of players who are being asked to damages for not keeping kids safe or removing known violent bullies from the classroom. For anyone who is sick of rampant bullying that goes unchecked in schools, and those who have been following the Goons case, this is a must listen with plenty of legal sauce and behind the scenes insight.

Orchestron French Horn disc on 'In Your Eyes' used thanks to Zac Rae. All Optigan, Mellotron and Chamberlin Rhythmate service and maintenance was performed way beyond the call of duty by Markus Resch.

Somebody's Calling Me; Finger Snaps Snaps, Matt Thornley; Finger Snaps Snaps, Synthesizer Casio MT-68, Wurlitzer Sideman, EMS VCS3 Putney, Korg Poly Ensemble, Bass, Piano Acoustic, Keyboards Roland System 100, Vocals, James Murphy; Mixed By, DS; Trombone, Jason Disu; Written-By, J. Murphy. Glenn Derringer, “The Girl From Ipanema” from Wurlitzer Swingin' Rhythm (1968 Wurlitzer). Glenn Derringer at the Wurlitzer electronic organ, demonstrating the Wurlitzer Electronic Swingin' Rhythm attachment with an unspecified Wurlitzer electronic organ. Each track on this demonstration disc explains the Swingin' Rhythm settings that were used. For “The Girl From Ipanema,” the settings were: “Moderate Bossa Nova. The Swingin' Rhythm was set at Latin, tempo control set to 1 o'clock.” What more can I say? Dick Hyman, “Strobo” from the single Strobo/Lay, Lady, Lay (1969 Command). Dick told me about this track, which was one of his Moog experiments that didn't make it onto his two albums around this time. Normally, he produced his Moog tracks with the help of synthesizer programmer Walter Sear. But in the case of this single, he did all the programming. For “Strobo,” he used a drum machine. It sounds like a Swingin' Rhythm. Jean-Pierre Sabar, “Fool on the Hill” from Super-Danse/Les Orgues Électroniques De Jean Pierre Sabar (1969 Sava). French LP of instrumental cover versions of popular music, all played on the Wurlitzer 4300 electronic organ with integrated Multi-Matic Percussion unit and Swingin' Rhythm, which was also sold as a standalone drum machine. In this case, I'm having a little trouble telling the difference between the drum machine and what sometimes sounds like a drum set with bass and toms. The settings on the organ indicate that the pedals can be used to play “drum” and “cymbal” sounds, and the Swingin' Rhythm unit had buttons for drum, brush, snare, block, and cymbal. Still, I can't account for the tambourine sound but so much of this rhythm section sounds like a drum machine repeating sounds robotically that I must assume that this is a combination of live drummer and drum machine. Jerry Styner And Larry Brown, “Dock of the Bay” from Orbit III (1971 Beverly Hills). Album produced to showcase the sounds of the Wurlitzer Orbit III organ, the “orbit” portion being a a third, two-octave keyboard that was a monophonic synthesizer. The instrument was equipped with the latest Wurlitzer rhythm machine built in. On this track, you not only hear sounds of a drum machine that sounds similar to the Wurlitzer Swingin' Rhythm machine introduced in 1969. Although the liner notes suggest that all of the sounds were created using the organ, there appears to be a regular human drummer playing along (probably percussionist and co-producer Larry Brown). I say this because there is a hit hat heard throughout and although Swingin' Rhythm had setting for a Snare, Brush and Cymbal sounds, as fills for the rhythm settings, they really did not reproduce the hit hat sound that is heard here. That and the miscellaneous drum fills added throughout sound more “played” than mechanized. Anyway, that's my take after examining this recording as compared to the actual sounds of the Swingin' Rhythm unit. Thomas Organ Byron Melcher, “Spanish Flea” from The Entertainers (1966 Thomas Organ Co.). Thomas Organ was one of the leading makers of electronic organs for the home. On this track, you can hear the Playmate rhythm component, a drum machine with 15 preset rhythms. The Thomas organ drum machine, circa mid-1960s. Thomas Organ was another maker of electronic organs for the home market. By 1966 they had created the Playmate rhythm component, a drum machine with 15 preset rhythms and a standalone device called the Band Box that had 10 preset rhythms. These were often sold as part of their Color-Glo line of transistorized organs. Color-Glo helped amateur musicians by lighting up the keys for preprogrammed melodies and chords to guide them along. Lowrey Organ Johnny Kemm “Taboo” from Latin Days (1970 Concert Recording). This album was created using the Lowrey Theater Console Deluxe organ model H25R-2 equipped with the built-in Automatic Rhythm drum machine feature. Not Sure Which Drum Machine Robin Gibb, “Mother and Jack” from the single Saved by the Bell/Mother and Jack (1969 Polydor). There was brief period in 1969 when the Brothers Gibb, otherwise known as the Bee Gees, had a sibling riff and Robin went off on his own to record some solo projects while Barry and Maurice completed a two-man Bee Gee album called Cucumber Castle. Perhaps because he was working along, Robin used a drum machine to mark time while recording various tracks and in the case of a few songs, he kept the mechanical rhythm as part of the finished recording. This might be the earliest purposeful use of a drum machine on a pop hit. I include it hear because it is probably a Swingin' Rhythm, although it might also be a Seeburg Select-A-Rhythm, also available at the time. Bruce Haack “Saint Basil” from The Electronic Record For Children (1969 Dimension 5). Tape composition, drum machine, and synthesis by Bruce Haack; Directed by P. Pandel; Performer, The Children Of Holy Trinity Cathedral School. Bruce used an unidentified drum machine on this album of children's music. Roland (Various) Michael Iceberg, “Mexican Hat Dance” from Does It Live: 100th Week At Walt Disney World (1977 Hihomusic). This album was only sold to tourists as a souvenir at Walt Disney World during the Michael Iceberg residency as a performer at Tomorrowland Terrace during the late 70's through the late 80's. Unknown drum machine, but likely a Roland Rhythm TR-55. Miha Kralj, “Apokalipsa” from Andromeda (1980 PGP). Yugoslavian record from synthesist Miha Kralj features a Roland CompuRhythm CR-78. Composer, producer, Synthesizer, Vocoder, Sequencer, Drum Machine, Effects, Miha Kralj. Gary Numan, “Slowcar To China” from Dance (1981 Atco).

This track is taken from a double LP, the only record I know of for the Noyes Brothers. Comateens, “Ghosts” from Comateens (1981 Cachalot Records). Here is a group who's unofficial fourth member was a Roland Compu-Rhythm CR-78. The inner notes for the album featured profiles of all of the artists, including Lyn Byrd on synthesizers and vocals, Oliver North on guitar and vocals, Nic North on bass, and vocals and the Roland machine, which was described as having a square black head, no body, with red, blue, and yellow buttons. In addition, the notes state that the Roland drum machine was born in Japan and existed as 3,468 separate pieces before assembled and called upon to serve with the Comateens.

This was a spinet style organ, a small upright keyboard with pedals for the home market. Arthur Brown and Kingdom Come, “Time Captives” from Journey (1973 Polydor). Brown used Bentley drum machine to provide drums on this track. The Bentley was actually a UK version of the Roland TR-77 which was the very first product Roland released under they own name. In the US this same unit was sold by Hammond as the Auto-Vari 64. The unit has 5 faders for Volume, Tempo, Cymbal/HH/Maracas, Guiro, Snare, Bass Drum.

This drum machine was one of the first Roland instruments to be equipped with MIDI, and was the first analog/digital hybrid machine, combining analog circuits for its drums with digital samples for its cymbal and hi-hat sounds. You can hear how Schooly D isolated the cymbals and drums on this track. Pixie Ninja, “Leng Plateau” from Colours Out Of Space (2020 Apollon Records). Another recording using the Chamberlin Rhythmate in the Roth Händle Studio in Stockholm. Roth Händle studios is run by producer and musician Mattias Olsson who collects, restores, and offers vintage musical gear for use by visiting bands. There is so much to listen to here with Pixie Ninja's hard-driving and somewhat deranged mix of vintage, cranky electronic instruments and modern guitars and synthesizers. You can hear the Chamberlin Rhythmmate in this track, a Bandmaster Powerhouse Drum Machine (the one that used 8-track tapes), and an Electro-Harmonix DRM-16 Drum Machine.

Background Sounds Opening: Negativland, “Side 1, Track 3” from Negativland (1980 Seeland). An unidentified drum box is heard throughout this track. It sounds a lot like the Wurlitzer Swingin' Rhythm. Recorded Dec. 1979-April 1980. This privately release album had a hand-made sleeve made of cut-and-paste artwork assembled with xerox, wallpaper, black construction paper, and magazine photos. Beneath these pasted portions, the cover itself is spray painted and stenciled with parts of the band name, as well as hand-numbered. Synthesizer, edited by, voice, tape, David Wills; Tape, Electronics, drum machine rhythms, Booper (an electronic oscillator), Clarinet, Organ, Viola, Loops, Guitar, Mark Hosler, Richard Lyons.

What are the steps to fostering collaboration in the academe, firms, industries, and organizations? Professor Richard Lyons, UC Berkeley's Chief Innovation and Entrepreneurship Officer, talks about his new position and new learnings. He discusses how the university is working to create an interface zone where ideas can be co-developed into commercial applications.Hear how the university's Changemaker project encourages critical thinking, collaboration, and communication as essential factors in achieving that sense of agency in life. Be sure to listen to the end to hear his advice on how to maintain a good balance in creating a research-driven program. Along with host Greg LaBlanc, they discuss avoiding an intensively commoditized transmission of learning. The episode concludes with ideas about how a traditional setup of universities can be combined with the delivery of online content to maximize their role as knowledge creation and discovery centers. Episode Quotes:What is the Berkeley Changemaker?“Berkeley has been involved in change in society for a long time. So, it doesn't surprise anybody to see those two words together at Berkeley. Then we put together a course, called the Berkeley Changemaker. It's really about critical thinking, collaboration, and communication —things that are fundamental ingredients to that idea of agency in life.”How are universities building an interface that bridges the idea generation happening in universities to the commercial world?“The idea that there is a transfer point. That the idea ends here and the application starts there. That interval between early conception and the ultimate application for the benefit of society. It need not be for the profit world. This could be the creation of a civic organization or a policy movement or many other things. I think every university is thinking more about how do we create an interface zone. So that we can co-develop ideas a bit more further downstream than, what's coming out of our labs historically.”How do you make the connection between what the students need and what the research priorities of the university are?“By having this kind of platform, where we can pull people in from the humanities, social sciences, STEM fields, professional schools, and each of them has a little different view on what is critical thinking and what collaboration means. And how does it happen? Then to what use do we put it. It feels like it's creating an even richer bundle than if we had at a single department in what we have in Berkeley Changemaker.”Show Links:Guest's Profile:Richard Lyons Profile at BerkeleyRichard Lyons on Twitter @richlyonsRichard Lyons on LinkedInPrograms and references Mentioned in the Episode:Berkeley Changemaker Program

Described upon his death in 1887 as the ideal diplomatist, Richard Lyons served Great Britain in a variety of roles over the course of a long and distinguished career. In Lord Lyons: A Diplomat in an Age of Nationalism and War (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2014), Brian Jenkins describes Lyons's eventful life and the often subtle impact he made in international relations. The son of an officer in the Royal Navy, Lyons was long drawn to diplomatic service. Sent to Greece as an aide soon after finishing his education, he rose steadily through the ranks over the course of a series of postings in Europe. Named minister to the United States in 1858, Lyons arrived to witness the emergence of secession, and he spent much of his tenure in America grappling with the challenges posed by the war that resulted. His success in such extraordinary circumstances cemented his reputation and led to his appointment as ambassador, first to the Ottoman Empire, then to France, where he served during the fall of Napoleon III's Second Empire and the establishment of the Third Republic. Throughout it all, as Jenkins shows, Lyons set a standard of conduct as a hard-working nonpartisan defender of Britain's interests that his successors strove to emulate.

After many years, Pastor Dick returns to OTE, along with his pals in faith, Harold Camping and…who? Anyway, this trio of God inspired  commentators go at it for 3 hours, accompanied by their argumentative engineer, Izzy Isn't. The added bonus from these collectors of God is a whole bunch of classic music and sermonizing from the right wings of religion. 3 Hours.
