Ken chats with Jon Boeckenstedt, vice provost for enrollment at Oregon State University, and the mind behind Higher Ed Data Stories, a treasure trove of data-driven (and data-visualized) observations about the state of higher ed. Jon shares some views about his recent career move as well as surprises about his reading and writing habits, as well as the unusual upside of the imposter syndrome.Shout-outs & LinksA couple of other places to get your Boeckenfix: jonboeckenstedt.net and Out Here In Oregon.The Test and The Art of Thinking a documentary about standardized tests, their role in college admission, and how they do (and don't) predict academic success. Jon's early influences that inform his wonderment about the absurdity of life: Mad Magazine's Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions (Vol. 1-3); The Stranger by Albert Camus; and Monty Python.500px and Flickr, two collections of Jon's photographyAn investigative report on whether Alex Bello is, in fact, Marlon Jackson's Episode sponsored by InitialView and their latest development, Elevator Pitch.Rapid DescentWalkout song: Won't Get Fooled Again by The Who.Best recent read: A Wikipedia entry about Norman Borlaug, which inspired him to name March 25 (Borlaug's birthday) National Test-Optional Day.Eager to read next: The Years that Matter Most by Paul Tough ("Apparently I'm in it...")Favorite thing to make in the kitchen: Semi-homemade killer chili: Hormel chili + extra sharp cheddar + Frank's Red Hot + bacon bits.What he uses to take and keep notes: Not much of a notetaker, but Jon loves a good fountain pen. Though he owns a Montblanc, he prefers his Sheaffer (for writing in black) and Lamy (for writing in blue).Memorable bit of advice: "Everybody is an imposter." Bucket list: "I do not and never have had a bucket list."
September means Deliver The Profile is doing Origins Month, aka a month of covering Season 1 of Criminal Minds. "Won't Get Fooled Again" is the third ever episode of the series and it goes so far as to resolve the trauma that set up Mandy Patinkin's character in the first place. We're dealing with a bomber this time, so that means jokes about Seinfeld's fitted hat day and a digression about Michael Morbius. Okay, maybe Morbius and bombers have nothing to do with each other, but they're both in this episode of Deliver The Profile!
Hoy te invitamos a visitar uno de los sitios de conciertos con más importancia histórica para el rock de Londres: el Rainbow Theatre.Por el escenario del Rainbow Theatre han pasado las mayores bandas de todos los tiempos. Beatles, Queen, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin o Genesis son algunos ejemplos. Originalmente se llamaba Finsbury Park Astoria y se lo conocía simplemente como el Astoria Theatre. Ya rebautizado con su nombre definitivo, el primer show rockero tuvo lugar a finales de 1971, con The Who.El Rainbow Theatre está ubicado a pocas cuadras del Finsbury Park, otro lugar clave para el rock británico del que ya hablamos en algún episodio anterior. Para llegar hasta acá, como para casi todo en Londres, te conviene tomarte el subte. Con las líneas Piccadilly o Victoria vas a llegar en menos de media hora desde Trafalgar Square o cualquier otro punto céntrico. Como dijimos en su momento, en este teatro fue donde Jimi Hendrix quemó una guitarra en vivo por primer vez. A la historia pasó su presentación en el Monterrey Pop Festival porque quedó registrada en video, pero meses antes, el 31 de marzo de 1967, el guitarrista prendió fuego su Stratocaster y terminó en un hospital para curar sus dedos quemados.Y hablando de guitarras... otro hecho histórico que tuvo lugar en el Rainbow Theatre fue el regreso a los escenarios de Eric Clapton luego de estar internado por su adicción a las drogas. Un show organizado por Pete Townshend en enero de 1973. Fueron dos funciones, en las cuales Clapton estrenó su famosa Fender Stratocaster Blackie, subastada años después en casi un millón de dólares para recaudar fondos para su fundación Crossroads. La superbanda que acompañó a Clapton fue Townshend y Ron Wood en guitarras, Ric Grech (de Blind Faith) en bajo, Steve Winwood en teclados y Jim Capaldi (de Traffic) en batería.Ese show fue editado ese año con muy pocas canciones y fue relanzado en versión remasterizada en 1995. Sin embargo, la que vale la pena escuchar es la pirata de 1998, un bootleg que incluye los dos shows completos, en versión consola y en versión audiencia. “The Dark Side of the Moon”, obra maestra de Pink Floyd, fue estrenada oficialmente en esta venue. Y no solo eso, sino que “Eclipse”, el tema que cierra el disco, había sido tocado en vivo en el Rainbow aún antes del lanzamiento del álbum, a mediados de 1972.Otros momentos históricos del Rainbow: Ramones, con el disco “It’s alive”, Van Morrison, Genesis y su “Live at the Rainbow Theatre”... y la edición de Bob Marley and the Wailers Live at the Rainbow Theatre, de 1977, que lo catapultó como una super estrella.Los shows de Queen en el Rainbow fueron editados en 2014, como festejos por el 40 aniversario de la banda. Yes registró acá su video “Yessongs”. Frank Zappa fue atacado en 1971 por un espectador que subió al escenario y lo tiró desde ahí arriba, lo que le provocó varios golpes y fracturas. Y The Kinks grabaron su tan pirateado Rainbow Theatre Concert, en diciembre de 1974.Para completar la visita al Rainbow Theatre, además de pasear por Finsbury Park, a unas diez cuadras hacia el sur tenés el estadio del Arsenal, que también vale la pena visitar.Para la despedida, “A piece for assorted lunatics”, como se conocía en aquél momento a esta canción, luego rebautizada “Eclipse”, la que cierra “The Dark Side of the Moon”, de Pink Floyd, en la versión en vivo en el Rainbow Theatre, grabada el 20 de febrero de 1972.Tracklist"Baba O'riley", The Who"Father to Son", Queen Live at the Rainbow Theatre 1974"Won't Get Fooled Again", The Who"Get 'Em Out by Friday", Genesis"Foxy Lady", Jimi Hendrix“Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad”, Eric Clapton “Eclipse”, Pink Floyd“The Heathen”, Bob Marley & The Wailers Live at the Rainbow Theatre“Celluloid Heroes”, The...
U2 were young and idealistic when they talked to us in 1980. They talk passionately about their music, their country and their fans. And you'll hear Bono get genuinely pissed off when talking about the song "Won't Get Fooled Again" by The Who. We also have a great early interview with Lady Gaga from 2008 - as "Just Dance" was hitting #1 around the world. Plus we go back to 1984 with Montreal's Corey Hart upon the release of "First Offence". Corey tells us about writing "Sunglasses At Night" and

Recorded July 29th, 2017 Seamus and Dan talk about the fact that science can't "prove" anything, and how that works its way into discussions. The two get into how our scientific understanding changes through time and how the scientific community attaches certainties to beliefs and observations. Dan and Seamus try to resolve how our technical discussions should address these issues, especially when talking to a general audience. Intro Song Credit: "Won't Get Fooled Again" - The Who
It's the last installment of this month's theme, Music May-hem, and the guys go all out on the explosive album, "Who's Next" by legendary band The Who. This week, Father Patrick Funston (aka "Father Fun") joins us with his all-time favorite album, and takes us all to church on everything there is to know about The Who's greatest album. There's plenty of talk about the hits like Baba O'Riley, Behind Blue Eyes, and Won't Get Fooled Again, as well as some deep diving into deeper cuts, the origin of the album, and much, much more.

Sidebar: cycles of revolution> Feelings of powerlessness lead to anger * one of the worst feelings is lack of control, lack of voice> The powerless throw off the oppressor * "...Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government..." > Often the once-oppressed become the new oppressors * The Who, Won't Get Fooled Again, "Meet the new boss, Same as the old boss" * The Culture War can be seen through this lens (each side views itself as oppressed and the other as oppressor) A Week that Changed the World> Happily Ever After yields inevitably to Everything Falls Apart * Yet what if Someone broke this cycle by embracing suffering and defeat as the path to true, miraculous victory?> Jesus would later tell Pilate, "My Kingdom is not of this world." * Not just "not a physical kingdom," but "not following the pattern of worldly power and authority." > If we follow Him, we'll not seek victory through personal power * That's hard for me, because I've got my rights! · And I hate being "powerless." · (I'm used to feeling short, but I hate feeling small.) * But He calls us to end the quest for personal power through surrender to the Father and obedience to His will. · Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done... · Do you have a "situation" (at work, at school, within your family) where you feel powerless, angry, threatened, like striking back? Is Christ possibly calling you to handle it a different way, following the pattern of His Kingdom? · Trust in the One who brings Resurrection when your "happily ever after" becomes "everything falls apart"
