LUCAS CRANACH: LEADING GERMAN MASTER IN THE 15TH CENTURY
One of the things most fathers want the most for their sons is to grow up healthy and well. In the past ages, though, it goes way beyond that: fathers want their children to usually follow after them. So many fathers would pass down the skills of their trades to their children, leading to the creation of long-living family business dynasties that still existed today. So when it comes to the stories of the Old Masters, and the lives these individuals lived, it isn't strange to come across the same story: Artists with children teach their kids art, and these kids will grow up to become the revered masters of art that we would study and learn from hundreds of years later. Many artists known for their skills owe their artistic parents and one such master is the German master of Northern Renaissance during the 15th century, Lucas Cranach.
Lucas is a German printmaker, illustrator, and engraver. But he's most certainly known as a painter who combined the German Gothic style with the improvements discovered and made through Italian Renaissance art into his own style of romantic oil paintings that are landscape paintings that also tells a narrative. In his time he became the leading German Renaissance artist and he was a founding member of the Danube School in southern Germany. Not only that but he's also noted for other works of art, such as female nudes and religious art, which also includes his later Protestant-themed works. Though he isn't the only German master of his time: there are others, such as Hand Holbein and Albrecht Durer.
Born in Kronach, Bavaria, in 1472, Lucas was named after St. Luke by his father, Hans Muller. Hans is an artist and he wanted his son to someday follow his footsteps and become an artist as well. So he taught his son everything and Lucas learned the basics of painting and drawing. People speculated that he was also apprenticed by other German masters as well.
Lucas Cranach and his father's, Hans Cranach, family name is originally Muller or Maler, meaning "painter". You can see this as something that's kind of a tradition during their time. The name was dropped and was replaced with Cranach (after the city, Kronach, which was "Cranach" during his time) after Lucas started living in Vienna when he was 30 years old, sometime between 1500 to 1504.
The style that Lucas paints, that of the combination of landscape painting with religious art, is a style that isn't uniquely his, but something he also shares with several other artists in the Danube area. This style became what is known as the Danube School of Art and Lucas was known to have made a lot of contributions to this style, enough for him to be considered as a founding member of this style.
Sometime in 1504, he went to accept the title as the Elector of Saxony's court painter. He spent all his life holding onto that office since then, serving three electors. He seemed famous enough to be asked by the famous and the powerful people of his time to paint for them. The list included Johann Cuspinian (1502), The Elector of Saxony who hired him (Frederick the Wise), Emperor Maximilian and his son Charles V (in 1509), Martin Luther (in 1553), and Cardinal Albrecht von Brandenburg. As he travelled around he also made it a point to increase his knowledge in art and absorb the art from places he visited.
Another thing he was known for is the creation of several nudes which he made for the Elector of Saxony around 1526 to 1532. When Protestantism was on the rise he also was commissioned to create illustrations for their religious doctrines. Because of this, Lutherans consider him as a prominent figure in their sect. His workshop is known to produce art after art for a diverse list of customers: famous people, Protestant or traditional Christian. During all this work he also found time to marry and have a son, Lucas the Younger, with whom he continued the tradition of passing down the father's craft to the son. Lucas the Younger is a skillful artist in his own right. So good in fact, that experts found it difficult to differentiate the two's work. When he died in 1553 he had three sons and one daughter. Lutherans would forever be commemorating his life every year on April 6.

Foundry fined $144,750 for safety & health hazards
OSHA has fined a Brooklyn, N.Y., foundry $144,750 for a litany of safety and health violations, including unguarded machinery, inadequate hearing protection, lead overexposures and a steam explosion hazard.
J&J Bronze & Aluminum Casting Corp. was cited for a total of 33 alleged willful, serious and other-than-serious hazards following OSHA health and safety inspections that started in February.
Inspections revealed that employees exposed to high noise levels were not provided an audiometric testing program and audiograms to measure possible hearing loss, and that saw blades and abrasive grinders were not guarded against employee contact. These conditions resulted in three willful citations.
In addition, the company was issued 28 serious citations, including
* employee overexposure to lead and the absence of work practices, engineering controls, respirators, a clean changing room, showers, medical surveillance, employee training and other required safeguards;
* a deficient hazard communication program;
* lack of hearing protection and eye protection; and
* no hearing conservation training.
Among the safety hazards was a potential steam explosion hazard in the plant's furnace and mold form areas that had a wet fire sprinkler system.
Pasadena Refining Services fined $115,650 for multiple safety hazards (1/3)
Bronx, N.Y., manufacturer fined for uncorrected safety hazards (12/6)
OSHA cites brass foundry $550,400 for exposing workers to lead and other hazards (9/2)

Jesuit Bishop George V. Murry, of the Diocese of Youngstown, Passes Away
June 5, 2020 — The Roman Catholic Diocese of Youngstown, Ohio, has announced the death of the Most Reverend George V. Murry, SJ, the fifth bishop of the diocese, this morning at Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospital in New York. Funeral arrangements are pending.
Bishop Murry, who served as chairman of the Committee Against Racism for the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, has long been recognized as a leading voice in the Catholic church on the topic of race.
In addition to listening and learning, the church must break her silence and "seek the forgiveness of those that she has victimized by her past injustices," he said during a lecture at the Jesuits' St. Peter's Catholic Church in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 2018.
The church can foster reconciliation by including people of color in leadership roles and by confronting racism wherever it occurs, and must "speak and live in truth, leaving behind the comfortable attitudes of superiority and fear," he said. "To get to that truth, we must break the silent complicity with the social evil of racism."
Father James Shea, SJ, with Bishop George Murry at St. Peter's Catholic Church.
Bishop Murry was born in Camden, New Jersey, on Dec. 28, 1948. After graduating from Catholic elementary and high schools, he attended St. Joseph's College in Philadelphia; St. Thomas Seminary in Bloomfield, Connecticut; and St. Mary's Seminary in Baltimore, where he received a bachelor's degree in philosophy in 1972.
That same year, he entered the Society of Jesus. He was ordained in the Maryland Province of the Society of Jesus on June 9, 1979. He earned a Master of Divinity degree from the Jesuit School of Theology of Santa Clara University in Berkeley, California, in 1979 and a doctorate in American Cultural History from George Washington University in Washington, D.C., in 1994.
Bishop George V. Murry, SJ, gave a keynote speech at the Ignatian Family Teach-In in 2018.
Bishop Murry served on the faculty and was dean of student activities at Gonzaga College High School in Washington, D.C., from 1974-1976. He was assistant professor of American studies at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., from 1986-1990, and president of Archbishop Carroll High School in Washington, D.C., from 1989-1994. He was named associate vice president for academic affairs at the University of Detroit Mercy in 1994.
On January 24, 1995, Pope John Paul II appointed him titular bishop of Fuerteventura and auxiliary bishop of Chicago, where he was ordained to the episcopacy on March 20, 1995. On May 5, 1998, Pope John Paul II appointed him coadjutor bishop of St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands, and he became bishop of the diocese on June 30, 1999. Pope Benedict XVI appointed him the fifth bishop of the diocese of Youngstown in 2007.

Bishop Murry has served on numerous boards, including Saint Joseph University, the University of Detroit Mercy, Fairfield University and Walsh University. In addition to his service as chairman of the Committee Against Racism for the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, he served as secretary for the Conference and chairman of the Committee on Priorities and Plans. He also served as a member of the board of directors of Catholic Relief Services. [Source: Diocese of Youngstown]

After conducting several raids on residences of opposition leaders in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, the Income Tax department has now trained its guns at Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK)'s Kanimozhi.
Just less than 48 hours before the constituency hits the polls, a team of I-T officials and a static surveillance team of the Election Commission on Tuesday evening conducted searches at the Rajya Sabha MP's residence in Thoothukudi in south Tamil Nadu region.
As the sleuths didn't find anything from the searches, Kanimozhi and other DMK leaders slammed the PM Modi-led Centre's over what they called attempts to subdue the opposition parties.
No polling in Vellore: President Ram Nath Kovind has accepted the Election Commission's recommendation to cancel the election in Tamil Nadu's Vellore over excessive use of money power, days after a large sum of cash was seized from the warehouse of a DMK candidate.
Polling for the two Assembly seats under the Vellore LS seat - Ambur and Gudiyattam - facing bypolls, will go ahead as planned on Thursday as the order was specific to the Lok Sabha election, officials told News18.

Consumers have questions on Denver's garbage-by-volume fees
Some of Stacie Gilmore's northeast Denver constituents may be fans of city plans to turn recycling and composting into a universal weekly proposition, and charge fees for garbage by volume.
But others have some big questions.
Can the city place a lien on homes that don't pay the monthly fee for a garbage bin, which range up to $21 a month for the biggest waste cart?
Are there fines for mixing in fee-based garbage with "free" recycling? If so, does that mean someone is sorting through everyone's garbage?
And is anyone worried about elderly residents or people living with disabilities, who if the plan passes would be wrangling three heavy carts — garbage, recycling, composting — into alleyways or to the curb every week?
"The fees have been a major point of contention, especially for District 11 residents, which is a majority community of color, and so I think we need to give them the time and the space to share more about what that looks like," Gilmore said, at a city council briefing on the new waste management plan presented by the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure and the city climate action office.
Moreover, Gilmore told the city officials, "We as the city now are possibly talking about putting liens on people's homes and for a lot of the constituents that I represent, that's a non-starter."
Denver officials said they have heard those concerns, in dozens of meetings around the city, and plan to work out details of fines and liens in a way that acknowledges consumer budgets and habits. But they also indicate they need enforcement powers if they are going to implement an entirely new fee structure for a vital service to 180,000 households.
"I want to make it very clear that our priority is education and outreach" before punitive measures, said Jessica Lally, a project manager in the infrastructure department. "We want to make sure that residents understand how to use the carts correctly, how to not contaminate the recycling and compost streams and how to pay their bill, how to log in online."
Residents using the largest garbage cart of 95 gallons, which will cost $21 a month at full price, wouldn't be eligible for a lien for non-payment until nearly a year of missed payments, and after months of outreach and warnings, Lally said.
And for the fees themselves, Denver will be rare among the major cities that have implemented a garbage-pricing plan — bin fees would be reduced on a sliding income scale, city officials say. Denver residents making only 30% of the area median income, for example, would pay nothing for their bins; for a household of four, that income level is $31,450. Households with higher income would qualify for fee reductions of 50% or 75%, before paying full price at a four-person household with income of $68,880.
One of Denver's arguments for a recycling and garbage overhaul is the disproportionate toll of past pollution and waste on the city's lower-income neighborhoods; the darker the blue, the more challenges for that neighborhood. (Office of Climate Action, Sustainability and Resiliency)
Denver officials are also pointing to fee comparisons with other cities, saying Denver's proposal is by far the lowest in price by volume. The largest garbage cart in other cities ranges from $34 to $54 a month.
The city has been talking about a volume garbage fee since 2010, said Grace Rink, director of the Office of Climate Action, Sustainability and Resiliency. She told the City Council it's time for Denver to stop climate-damaging methane emissions from landfills, and build better markets to reuse valuable resources.
"This is it. The time has run out for us to do the really hard work that the climate is demanding of us," she said.
There will be garbage inspectors.
Some residents will accidentally put garbage in the recycling bins, or throw things in compost that don't break down into soil. Others might try to move garbage, which they would now pay for, into the recycling bins. Still more might move their own overflowing garbage into neighbors' trash.
"As part of this initiative, we will have inspectors on the ground checking carts for contamination," a spokeswoman for the transportation department said in an email. "Education will be the first step as we work to build compliance. Contamination fines will follow after multiple warnings. Fine amounts are being discussed and will be finalized when the ordinance request is submitted to Council."
Council members told the city officials some of their constituents still wonder why they would have to pay for a service they currently get as a form of tax-funded city services, such as policing, libraries or road paving.
The city's response is that the portions of property taxes dedicated to waste hauling don't currently fund the recycling effort. The proposed ordinance says the city can't make money on the new fees — if the collected fees turn out to be more than the costs of the expansion, that money will be returned to taxpayers in some form.
City officials are striving to make a connection between global warming, local air pollution, and the benefits of a recycling expansion, as they demonstrate the proposal around Denver. Methane contributes to greenhouse gas production, and also contributes to local ozone and smog, impacting air quality in the lowest-income neighborhoods in a bracket from the northeast, along I-70, and to the west of I-25, according to one map in their slide show.
The city expects the new waste and recycling program to generate about $35 million in fees in its first full year, if about 45% of residents choose the largest, 95-gallon waste cart. Proponents want the city council to vote on the plan in June, and roll out weekly recycling beginning in the fall. Other components, including composting bins for all single-family home residents, may have to wait for supplies to arrive.
Some council members at the briefing were in strong support of the overhaul, saying they get constant demands for a weekly instead of twice-a-month recycling pickup. Many also like the universal composting bins, which currently cost nearly $10 a month and are only brought to those who sign up.
Denver's schoolchildren can help their households sort out the new recycling rules, and where to put what, said Council Member Amanda Sandoval, representing northwest Denver.
"So we're teaching our kids in our public school system, and then we also are following up with that behavior at our house," Sandoval said.
Denver is currently removing only about 26% from the garbage stream through recycling and composting, city waste officials said. Portland is removing 81%, Los Angeles is at 76%, Seattle is at 54%, and Salt Lake City is at 40%, the officials said.
We believe vital information needs to be seen by the people impacted, whether it's a public health crisis, investigative reporting or keeping lawmakers accountable. This reporting depends on support from readers like you.

We&Dem es un grupo de música español que nació el año 2002 en Zaragoza. El nombre es una acotación de las palabras inglesas We and them, que en español significa nosotros y ellos

Estilo
Se trata de una banda de fuerte impregnación reggae roots, cuya producción musical se realizó combinando las últimas tecnologías con equipos analógicos de los años 70. Según palabras del propio grupo, su música se caracteriza por "ritmos sugerentes, bases y arreglos depurados, llenos de los inconfundibles ambientes de la música reggae". La temática de las canciones es inminentemente social, algunas rechazando el uso de las armas o criticando la actuación de los políticos, como puede escucharse en la pista No more conquest. Emplean tanto el español como el inglés en sus canciones.

Junto a los integrantes de la banda, otros artistan han participado en varios de sus conciertos como Dubby Ambasah, Rapsusklei o miembros de Lone Ark.

Edición
Su primer disco es homónimo a la banda, y fue grabado en Santander (España) en el A-Lone Muzik Studio, al mando del productor Roberto Sánchez, quien también participa en ocasiones en los coros. Su música se distribuye en Internet de forma gratuita, pues se publicó en el sitio web Jamendo, dedicado a distribuir música bajo la licencia Creative Commons 3.0, destinada al uso no comercial. We&Dem ha ido ganando mayor popularidad hasta el punto de participar en el Festival Nueno Rock o Lagatavajunto Reggae. La masterización de su primer disco, que también se vende en soporte físico, fue llevada a cabo en Bilbao por Ibón Larruzea en Euridia Estudios.

Disolución y presente
We&Dem abandona los escenarios en 2010. Cambios en el rumbo de algunos de sus miembros y un cierto estancamiento llevaron a tomar esta decisión
De esta disolución surgieron dos nuevas bandas. Por un lado Los Brodies, que mezclan el reggae clásico con pinceladas roqueras y una aire más mestizo. En 2013 graban su primer disco en los estudios Garate de Andoáin y cuentan con la producción del mítico Kaki Arkarazo. El álbum Está en el aire recibe muy buenas críticas y permite al sonido de Los Brodies llegar a mucha más gente. Se edita bajo licencia Creative Commons y puede descargarse libremente desde su web:
Otros miembros de We&Dem forman una nueva banda de reggae-roots llamada Irregular Roots, que lanzaron su primer álbum del mismo nombre en 2016, autoproducido por uno de los miembros de la banda, Nacho García.

It was hysterical: Watching them get sucked in. They would literally come running into the kitchen to tell me about this great laundry cleaner that got out stains but wouldn't bleach colors, or a floor cleaner that left a great shine. It wasn't so funny when they fell victim to the commercials convincing them they truly needed every toy and gadget advertised.
Clearly they didn't possess the wisdom to discern the difference between a want and a need. I was hoping that would come with maturity. But when I look around at our world today, I realize that battle is far greater than just an age thing.

Judge Nap: AG Sessions Can Press Charges Against Hillary… "Mountain-Load Of Guilt" (Video)
Do it, Jeff Sessions! Go ahead and indict that crook!
Some Republicans are behind the deep state leaks. I wasn't always sure, but the latest efforts to protect Mueller are clear indications. It would be one thing to be silent, but to propose legislation?
TGP: Judge Andrew Napolitano told Stuart Varney today on FOX Business Network that Attorney General Jeff Sessions has a "truckload of materials" that "paint a picture of a mountain load of guilt."
Judge Napolitano: What is new is that there are new emails that were obtained by a lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch which the State Department in the Obama administration and the Trump administration declined to turn over… We are the only ones that are talking about this.
Trending: Unintended Consequences: Thanks To Hogg Die-In Stunt Causes Publix To Cancel Donations To Planned Parenthood
…Is this enough to cause Jeff Sessions to present the evidence against her for the misuse of state secrets to a grand jury? Absolutely! Do they need a special prosecutor? No they don't!… Actually he (AG Sessions) doesn't have to investigate. He has a truckload of materials that the FBI accumulated under Jim Comey which paints a picture of a mountain-load of her guilt.

So the Bill of Rights was written down after the Constitution was ratified to remind the government (and the people of the United States) what Rights the government could NOT touch.
Oftentimes when we discuss the First Amendment and the freedom of speech that it protects, we mention that the First Amendment was written to protect speech we might find despicable. That is the unadulterated truth.
If we don't protect speech that we dislike then there is NO Freedom of Speech.
Which is what makes the results from the latest YouGov poll so terrifying.
Seriously? Advocating genocide and hatred against are very different things. One could be a call to specific acts of violence against a certain person – the other is simply a feeling that someone gets… they are hardly the same thing.
The overall poll response stands. 51% of Democrats and 25% of Republicans would make hate speech illegal! This is an utterly terrifying statistic.
Our allies in Europe (and Canada) already have similar statues in their nations and these laws have been used to stifle speech from conservatives who are not spreading hate at all, but simply voicing what they believe.
In Canada, mainstream American conservatives like Ann Coulter are constantly being threatened with prison because of the things they say. It's absolutely ludicrous.
In England, our closest European ally and friend, Christian street preachers, are being jailed almost as often as they speak simply for quoting the Bible! Earlier this year, the leader of Britain's 3rd largest political party was arrested for quoting Winston Churchill – I kid you not! UK Independence Party (UKIP) leader Nigel Farage was arrested for reading about a paragraph from a book written by the famous British Prime Minister.
Hate speech laws are insidious because while sounding noble and just, they actually encourage the evil of totalitarianism. Liberals are often fond of explaining to conservatives that because culture changes so too should our laws and our governments change. On the flip side of that, Mr. Liberal, is the truth that because culture changes it is all the more important to ensure that some laws do not.
Imagine if you will the majority of Americans one day deciding that support for communism was now hate speech because communist government slaughtered millions of people in the 20th Century. What an injustice that would be for the thousands of Americans who support communist ideology!
In the same manner the current cultural trend could make some Christian speech illegal – specifically the orthodox Christian beliefs on homosexuality and abortion.
Dear reader – we must fight against Hate Speech legislation with everything we have. Hate speech may be disgusting and wicked – but hate speech legislation may lead our nation to even greater evils. Our founders had hate speech in their day; nonetheless they made sure that the protection of all speech was ensconced in the Bill of Rights.


To meet the financial needs of borrowers, FMO enters into various irrevocable commitments (loan commitments, equity commitments and guarantee commitments) and contingent liabilities. These contingent liabilities consist of financial guarantees, which commit FMO to make payments on behalf of the borrowers in case the borrower fails to fulfill payment obligations. Though these obligations are not recognized on the balance sheet, they do obtain Credit Risk similar to loans to private sector. Therefore, provisions are calculated for financial guarantees and loan commitments according to IFRS 9 ECL measurement methodology.
Moreover, FMO receives guarantees from various guarantors, which participate in the risk FMO takes. For more details refer to section 'Credit Risk' within the Risk Management paragraph.
For 2018 total irrevocable facilities contain 84% USD, 14% EUR and 2% other currencies (2017: 85% USD, 12% EUR, 3% other).

Imperial Treasury Bond Certificates – The Imperial Government of Norton I
In 1859 a self-proclaimed, penniless, US Emperor continued to live the good life and became a beloved member of the San Francisco community.
On September 17, 1859 Joshua Abraham Norton, resident of San Francisco, California, became the first and only emperor of the United States of America. Emperor Norton I enjoyed a 21 year reign, then on a dark and rainy night on a San Francisco street he collapsed and departed this life. The Emperor's obituary was printed on the front page of every San Francisco newspaper, and as many as 30,000 people from all walks of life attended his funeral. He died penniless. How could a man with such a high social standing die broke?
Norton immigrated to San Francisco from South Africa in 1849 following the death of his father. With $40,000 from his father's estate he made an entry into the real estate market, and eventually branched out to other businesses. His businesses quickly amassed Norton a fortune of around $250,000. But, unfortunately, after a poor investment in Peruvian Rice and many failed court cases, his fortune was gone and his property had been foreclosed on.
Norton fled San Francisco and disappeared for a couple of years. When he returned he was described as being "insane, or at least highly eccentric". More than likely the loss of his fortune had affected him greatly. Shortly after his return he proclaimed himself Imperial Majesty Emperor Norton I, and Protector of Mexico. His proclamation was printed in all San Francisco newspapers and he instantly became a local celebrity.
Utterly penniless, Emperor Norton I enjoyed nightly dining at the city's finest establishments and balcony seats at every major play and musical. How did a broke self-proclaimed Emperor do this? It is simple, since he was Emperor he just issued his own notes…and the people recognized them. The Emperor's notes became an accepted piece of local currency in San Francisco, much like other types of scrip notes (merchant scrip etc.).
If one looks carefully enough walking the streets of San Francisco, brass plaques outside of doors declaring "By Appointment to his Imperial Majesty, Emperor Norton I of the United States" can still be seen. These plaques depicted restaurants where the Emperor could spend his self-issued currency.
Emperor Norton I issued his Imperial Treasury Bond Certificates in denominations ranging from 50 cents to $10. These bond certificates were printed on standard banknote paper, were hand dated, hand signed and serial numbered. Although the print quality was low, these quickly became popular souvenirs with tourists. They were sold along side Emperor Norton I postcards and dolls. In fact, these notes are still very popular with collectors and ranked #100 on the list of 100 Greatest American Currency Notes.
Essentially what the Emperor had done is establish his own currency, backed by no guarantee or standard (reportedly, no one ever tried to redeem the bonds for their fictitious 7% interest) and it was widely accepted in a large city. A 1933 issue of The Numismatist even ran a story on these exceedingly popular notes.
Emperor Norton I may not have been a legitimate political ruler, but the people loved him (it is reported that all police officers would salute him on the street) and his legacy continues to live on. In 1980 the City of San Francisco even held ceremonies to honor Emperor Norton I on the 100th anniversary of his death.
These Imperial Treasury Bond Certificates are physical remnants of the story of one of America's most interesting, eccentric and lesser known figures. Exceedingly rare, these bonds represent a magnanimous American.

E3 & Alter Echo - Cave Dweller EP – Unearthed Sounds
E3 & Alter Echo - Cave Dweller EP
From Gourmet Beats
Regular price £7.49 (£8.99 Inc VAT)
GourmetBeats 011 features four selections: "Stalactite" and "Stalagmite" by E3, "Stalactite Remix" by Alter Echo and "Stalagmite Remix" by Tetrad. All four tunes are available to buy on 12" vinyl and digital formats.
Alter Echo / AKA Sound Secretion (Josh Derry), has spent the last fifteen years working as a dub scientist of the highest order and performed in the United States, Mexico, Canada, France, and Senegal. Creating a highly distinctive sound and collaborating with DJ Spooky, Lee Perry, Mad Professor, Scientist, Twilight Circus, Dr. Israel, and Systemwide, he often works as the "Hidden Hand", perfecting and alloying disparate materials into completely new dub forms. Alongside E3, he was one of the founders of world-renowned future-dub label BSI Records, and has released music on ZamZam, Khaliphonic, Moonshine, Lava Lava, BSI, M Records, Six Degrees, Thirsty Ear, Sub Rosa, and Bangarang.
E3 (Ezra E Ereckson) is a producer, DJ, and co-boss of the ZamZam Sounds and Khaliphonic recordlabels. A founding member of Portland's pioneering agit-dub band Systemwide and the president of now retired BSI Records, E3 has been collecting records since the age of 13 and DJing for over 15 years. Past Portland residencies such as Deeper Roots, Bassism, and Atlas (one of the earliest and longest-running global bass parties in the US), as well as regular rotation at Various and now Signal, have cemented his reputation as a sonic tactician without boundaries, borders, or genre constraints - all of it is rooted in a deep love of reggae and dub. E3 has remixed Ishan Sound for Bristol's Hotline label, and has 7" vinyl releases on 45Seven, Bella Union, and Boomarm Nation, and has represented ZamZam from Echo Chamber in Brooklyn, New York to Subdub in Leeds, England.
Alter Echo & E3 have extremely deep roots in dub and are in high demand in the world of underground sound system music since their first 7", "Kufic Dub" backed with "Dub Is Not Easy," dropped on ZamZam in early 2013. Their signature productions have varied tempos with thick, heavy atmospheres, masterful dubbing, vinyl archaeology, and loads of sonic detail and intrigue. Whether floor-filling or abstract, the Alter Echo & E3 sound is unmistakable. Their second ZamZam release, "Nubian Dub" backed with "Warning Dub" created worldwide appeal, championed by selectors from Dub War to Joe Nice, Pinch to The Bug—and received a glowing 9 out of 10 in Mixmag. Both tunes spawned remixes on Khaliphonic from Ishan Sound, Egoless and DJ Madd. A third 7" release followed in partnership with Young Echo's Rider Shafique, and the Bristol bonds grew even tighter with a B-side remix on Ishan Sound's "Rush On The Tonic" 7". In December of 2016 Alter Echo & E3 debuted their mutant dancehall hallucinations on Ossia's new Lava Lava label, and in January 2017, a 12" on Moonshine gained mass appeal.
Tetrad is the dubstep and bass music project of L.A.-based musician, producer, songwriter, and DJ, Cheyne Bush. A lifelong musician, Cheyne learned jazz on saxophone and guitar in school, and punk and experimental music at home. Gaining experience as a youth, starting a band called Issue 89, playing a fusion of street punk and ska, and joining a metalcore band MidMourn on vocals and synthesizers, he turned to electronic music when he experimented with music software, tinkered with Ableton Live, and began listening to Aphex Twin, Autechre, and Boards of Canada. Cheyne spent his first year of college at Berklee College of Music and completed his Bachelors of Fine Arts in Music Technology at California Institute of The Arts (CalArts) in 2012 and a Masters of Fine Arts in Film and Video in 2015. As he developed his style and listened to deep minimal techno, a new sonic influence came from his burgeoning interest in 4x4 and 2-step Garage music -- dubstep, most specifically Burial and Shackleton. Discovering the Hyperdub and Skull Disco artists, and listening to early DMZ, Deep Medi, and Chestplate releases, Tetrad shifted his sound in this new direction. Following multiple collaborations with Brukha as Friendly Strangers in 2007 and LMNOP as Cybertooth in 2009, Cheyne started recording solo as Tetrad in 2015 and released a clutch of deep and weighty dubstep tunes Sure State in the United States and Heavyweight in the United Kingdom. Most recently, he released his vinyl début with the 7" single "Awaken Dub" on Portland, Oregon's vaunted ZamZam Sounds label, and a follow-up 7" with newly debuting Bay Area label Material Sound with his tune "Eazy Street."
Worldwide support from: JoeNice, Alter Echo, E3, Tetrad, JayZer0, Kursk, Ishan Sound, Gantz, Emmo, InfraDub, VIVEK, SapLeo, DubDiggerz, BunZero, Raggs, Basstrace, DubPhase SoundSystem, Nousless, Moonstones, FKOF, Trusik, True Soldiers Productions, DataSetClothing, SubFM.
Thank you for your continued support. Enjoy the music!
Peace, love, and bass....

"The idea behind spiritual comics is to inspire people, and give them a fun way to think through life's challenges and joys.
There is a lot about spirituality that might seem remote, but everyone needs a way to think through their days. This is what my books, illustrations, and comics are for.
I want to enchant people, and bring them inspirational concepts in a fun, colourful and visual way. Something anybody can just pick up and flip open to any page and feel enlighted."
Mike Medaglia is Editor and Publisher of Wu Wei, an anthology that gives writers & artists a space to creatively explore spirituality through the medium of comics. 'Wu Wei' is a Taoist term meaning non-action.

The Great Northern Railway (GNR) No. 1 class Stirling Single is a class of steam locomotive designed for express passenger work. Designed by Patrick Stirling, they are characterised by a single pair of large (8' 1") driving wheels which led to the nickname "eight-footer". Originally the locomotive was designed to haul up to 26 passenger carriages at an average speed of ." They could reach speeds of up to 85 mph (137 km/h).

Development
On his arrival at GNR, Stirling set out to standardise the railway's rolling stock. He also borrowed a 'single-wheeler' from the Great Eastern Railway and, in 1868, designed two versions of 2-2-2 with  driving wheels.

The outcome, in 1870 was a locomotive with  driving wheels, designed specifically for high speed expresses between York and London. The British norm in those days was inside cylinders (although it was different on the continent and in the US). Not only were there frequent failures of the cranked axle shafts, with such large driving wheels, they would have set the boiler too high. He therefore used outside cylinders with a four-wheeled bogie for lateral stability at the front end. According to Hamilton Ellis's description entitled 'Pat Stirling's masterpiece,' the design was a version of a 2-2-2 designed by Stirling for the Glasgow and South Western Railway, 'considerably enlarged, and provided with a leading bogie.'

A total of 53 were built at Doncaster between 1870 and 1895, in three series introduced in 1870, 1884, and 1894;. (George Frederick Bird, referred to the three series as 'G, G2 and G3 classes' in 1910, and this classification has been used in other sources but it does not appear to have been used officially by the GNR.)

The GNR did not number its locomotives sequentially, instead using numbers freed up by withdrawing older locomotives. Thus the 1870 series was numbered between GNR No. 1 and 671, the 1884 series 771-8 and 1001-2, and 1894 series 1003-8.

Performance

These locomotives were able to haul  trains at an average of , with a top speed on lighter trains of . When taking part in the 1895 Race to the North, GNR Stirling No. 775 made the  from Grantham to York in 1 hour 16 minutes. This translates to an average speed of .

Members of the 1894 series were originally built weighing  but following two high-speed derailments in 1895/6 the weight was reduced by 1% to .

Accidents and incidents
On 10 November 1895, an overnight Scottish express hauled by locomotive No. 1006 derailed at St Neots when it encountered a broken rail. One person was killed. The accident report by Her Majesty's Railway Inspectorate commented on the abnormally heavy axle loading of the locomotive: nearly 20 tons on the driving axle.
On 7 March 1896, a passenger train hauled by locomotive No.1003 was derailed at Little Bytham, Lincolnshire due to the premature removal of a speed restriction after track renewal. Two people were killed.

Withdrawal and preservation
With the arrival of the Ivatt Atlantics after 1898, the class began to be displaced from the most prestigious express services. Several examples were rebuilt by Henry Ivatt after 1898 with a domed boiler, but withdrawals of the 1870 series began in 1899. The last examples of the class were in use on secondary services until 1916.

The first of the class, No 1 is the only engine to be preserved. It is exhibited at the National Railway Museum, York.  It was restored to running order during the 1930s for the fiftieth anniversary of the Race to the North and steamed again during the 1980s.

The locomotive remains in good mechanical condition, though it has not steamed since 1985, and was used recently to act as a star player in York Theatre Royal's stage-performance of The Railway Children play, in which it was seen to move into a stage set of a period station, created initially at the National Railway Museum in 2008-9, and then in the redundant Waterloo International station in 2010-11. For the later Toronto and Kings Cross performances, LSWR T3 No. 563 was used instead.

The locomotive appeared to be in steam for its 'performances', however it was not, with fog machine generated smoke being used to portray escaping steam. In reality the locomotive was shunted into position during the performance using a Class 08 Diesel Shunter which remained out of sight of the main stage.

Modelling

An 18" gauge model of No.1 was built in 1898, at the Regent Street Polytechnic, from a set of parts supplied by W. G. Bagnall. Amongst the students at Regent Street who worked on the model was Henry Greenly who later became a celebrated miniature locomotive builder and supplied locomotives for the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway. The locomotive was initially sold to Mr.E.F.S. Notter the Great Northern Railway District Locomotive Superintendent at Kings Cross, who between 1910 and 1914 operated it at Alexander Park (London) and later kept it in King Cross 'Top Shed', the home of the full size Stirling Singles. In 1926 this locomotive was bought by the Fairbourne Miniature Railway and in 1936 it was sold to the Jaywick Miniature Railway, which ran it until 1939. It then passed through the hands of a number of private owners until it was bought by the World of Country Life Museum at Sandy Bay, Exmouth, Devon, in 1986.

Bagnall had earlier, in 1893, supplied a similar model (works number 1425) to Lord Downshire of Easthampstead Park, Crowthorne Berkshire. This engine was later preserved by Mr Hoare in the Boys Reading Room at the Training Ship Mercury at Hamble. It was subsequently sold to a private owner in Southampton in 1946. Its current whereabouts is unknown.

Nuremberg toymaker Georges Carette's range included a 2.5 inch-gauge model of Stirling Single 776, in around ~1900. It was marketed in the UK by Bassett-Lowke, appearing in their 1904 catalogue.

An unpowered 5" gauge model of a Stirling Single locomotive, engineered by Dennis Hefford, is on display at the entrance to Arch Two of Brighton Toy and Model Museum.

A 1/12 scale model of No.93, built by 'R Jackson' around 1888, is displayed at Worthing Museum and Art Gallery.

Kitmaster produced an injection moulded plastic kit of the Stirling Single in the 1950s. David Boyle, founder of Dapol Model Railways, recalls seeing the moulds being destroyed in the early 1980s, leading him to purchase the tooling for and reissue the remaining Kitmaster kits.

Aster Hobby introduced Gauge1 live steam model in 1996.

In April 2015, Rapido Trains announced that a forthcoming OO gauge model would be exclusively available from Locomotion Models.

In fiction
Emily from Thomas & Friends is based on this class.
In the anime film Case Closed: The Phantom of Baker Street, in which the protagonists are in a virtual reality game, the protagonists confront Jack the Ripper on the top of a runaway passenger train, which is pulled by a GNR Stirling Single Engine.

There is a risk, though, that a focus on the mechanics of work means we miss broader societal change that reinforce and amplify negatives in the labour market.
There are workplace trends in most developed economies that are hurting many people and communities; de-industrialisation, the systematic shifting of risk onto workers in the form of insecure work, the destruction of life-long career paths, stagnant real incomes, and vanishing middle income jobs.
The decline of unions and the weakening of other labour market institutions and protections is both a cause and consequence. The potential for widespread job-killing, as machines with the ability to perform tasks of increasing manual dexterity and cognitive complexity, are developed is being widely discussed.
Although the exact way this plays out is a function of changes and the choices societies make, the labour market issues are old and obvious. Income and job security. The extent to which workers have control over their working life, and therefore their personal life. New types of automation. The challenges are real, but as capable of being dealt with with as they ever have been.
None of these developments should be the end of unionism, although they could be. The more pressing, and infinitely more complex, issue is embedded in our broader culture and environment. The threat to unionism comes from something much more fundamental about identity and individualism.
The Dutch psychiatrist Paul Verhaeghe has written compellingly about the struggle between the sheer pervasiveness of markets and identity. Identity, of course, is always derived from an interaction between the identity holder and the wider environment.
Just as the 'wealth management' industry is based on the lie that anyone can be wealthy if they are just prepared to take enough individual risk in the form of debt, the modern lie about work is that your place depends on a vicious competition with those around you.
This is a sort of sociopathic individualism, one that denies the collective project, where even the team resembles more a gangster faction than a collective. Success is said to be entirely a function of your own efforts, rendering solidarity not just a foreign idea but inimical to your own interests.
Every organiser knows, and fears, the fragility of solidarity. Solidarity can be broken dramatically by force or by the erosion of ties based on locality, religion, occupation or class. But it can also decay from neglect. And with it goes power.
Solidarity is cognitive muscle memory — a learned behaviour that becomes natural through experience and repetition. It's normalised by a widespread incidence of collective action. Seeing others take collective action and win gives others permission to try it. Conversely, the effective absence of collective action, the situation I'd argue we have now with workplace actions like strikes extinct, robs the collective of the legitimacy of familiarity.
People don't reach for a collective response to their problems in the workplace because such a response is beyond their experience — it literally doesn't make sense to them. This is a bicycle that individuals, and even whole societies, can forget how to ride.
This is not an argument for an apolitical unionism. Rather it's a prescription for the creation of an ingrained, sustainable, values-based politics that vaccinates against the lie that self and group interest are necessarily and always opposed.
The experience of successful collective action is the key to recovering what American political scientist Sheldon Wolin called 'politicalness': the 'capacity for developing into beings who know and value what it means to participate in and be responsible for the care and improvement of our common and collective life'.
Organised workers, as any number of studies on voting behaviour and political participation demonstrate, are 'unionist citizens' (I use the latter term in the 1789 sense and not that of the Migration Act). Voting, an action where you ask others to do something for you, is but a small part of this. Organised workers are naturally predisposed to democratic action that builds and preserves a politics of the common good more generally. A focus on winning the state through the parties as the precondition to rebuilding workplace power (and therefore community power) is upside down.
Unions need to recover their identity and their function in society, as organic exercises in group self-improvement — as organisations that are a natural part of the order of human affairs and not defined (and therefore restricted) by their relationship to the state, the law and party politics.
Unions must rebuild the notion of collective as not something you participate in despite your self-interest, but as the only plausible pathway to securing them for almost all people.
As it was, so it will always be. The answer to the challenges of work is to rebuild solidarity of purpose and action. A solidarity unfettered by legal structures of collective bargaining but anchored in human relationships and, yes, in rational self-interest.
