# The Jazz Session

The Jazz Session is a jazz-interview podcast created by Jason Crane in 2007.
In the podcast's first episode, Crane interviewed saxophonist Grant Stewart. One of its earliest episodes featured Crane's interview with guitarist John Abercrombie.
In 2009, Crane and Michael Ricci developed a promotional partnership between the podcast and Ricci's website All About Jazz to which Crane had been contributing as a writer. From 2009 to 2012, Patrick Jarenwattananon made frequent mention of episodes of the show on National Public Radio's jazz blog, A Blog Supreme.
In 2012, the podcast featured a series of episodes called Jazz or Bust which included Crane's interviews with musicians and others in places he visited during a tour of the United States and Canada. Among those he interviewed was John D'Earth in Virginia. One of the stops on the Jazz or Bust tour was Auburn, Alabama where Crane ended up moving later that year, stopping production.
In 2013, after a crowdfunding effort promising to re-launch the podcast, Crane relocated to State College, Pennsylvania to be closer to family and started producing new episodes. By 2015, it could boast over 2.5 million downloads.
In 2021, Crane turned over control of the podcast to Nicky Schrire, who turned control back to Crane in 2022.
By 2023, The Jazz Session featured interviews with over 600 musicians including artists such as Sonny Rollins, Marian MacPartland, and Vijay Iyer.
The show's theme music is excerpted from a recording by The Respect Sextet.
# Derry More

Derry More (from Irish Doire Mór meaning – The Big Oakwood) is a townland in the civil parish of Templeport, County Cavan, Ireland. It lies in the Roman Catholic parish of Corlough and barony of Tullyhaw.

## Geography

Derry More is bounded on the north by Derry Beg townland, on the west by Derryconnessy and Derrynaslieve townlands and on the east by Moneynure, Prospect, Corlough and Scrabby, Corlough townlands. Its chief geographical features are Brackley Lough, a stream and dug wells. Derry More is traversed by minor public roads and rural lanes. The townland covers 125 statute acres.

## History

In earlier times the townland was probably uninhabited as it consists mainly of bog and poor clay soils. It was not seized by the English during the Plantation of Ulster in 1610 or in the Cromwellian Settlement of the 1660s so some dispossessed Irish families moved there and began to clear and farm the land.
A map of the townland drawn in 1813 is in the National Archives of Ireland, Beresford Estate Maps, depicts the townland as Derrymore.
The Tithe Applotment Books for 1827 list twelve tithepayers in the townland.
The Derry More Valuation Office Field books are available for September 1839.
In 1841 the population of the townland was 38, being 13 males and 25 females. There were seven houses in the townland, all of which were inhabited.
In 1851 the population of the townland was 30, being 13 males and 17 females, the reduction being due to the Great Famine (Ireland). There were five houses in the townland, all were inhabited.
Griffith's Valuation of 1857 lists five landholders in the townland.
In 1861 the population of the townland was 24, being 9 males and 15 females. There were five houses in the townland and all were inhabited.
In the 1901 census of Ireland, there are four families listed in the townland, and in the 1911 census of Ireland, there are five families listed in the townland.

# Resun

Resun AG (an acronym from the French REmplacement SUisse Nucléaire, Swiss nuclear replacement) was a company located in Aarau, Switzerland. Its purpose was to manage the construction of two new nuclear reactors. These are unofficially known as Beznau 3 and Mühleberg 2 from the locations where they should be built. In August 2017 the company was liquidated.
After 2020 the existing plants of Beznau (1969, 730 MW) and Mühleberg (1972, 355 MW) should cease activity. At the same time some import contracts with France for around 2000 MW will expire. With a combined electrical power output of 3200 MW, the new reactors would prevent the resulting energy gap and satisfy the expected domestic demand increase.

## Stockholders

Resun AG is a privately held company whose shares are controlled by the BKW FMB Energie AG (present owner of the Mühleberg Nuclear Power Plant, 31.25%) and the Axpo subsidiaries Nordostschweizerische Kraftwerke AG (present owner of the Beznau Nuclear Power Plant, 57.75%) and Centralschweizerische Kraftwerke AG (11%).

# Bovec sheep

The Bovec (Slovene: bovška ovca, Italian: Plezzana, German: Krainer Steinschaf) is a breed of domestic sheep from the upper valley of the Soča or Isonzo river, now in Slovenia. The breed is named in both Slovenian and in Italian for the town of Bovec or Plezzo; in the Trenta valley it may also be called Trentarka. It is raised in the Soča valley in Slovenia, in the areas of Resia and Tarvisio in Friuli in Italy, and in Styria and Carinthia in Austria. The breed is raised for milk and for meat.

## Characteristics

The Bovec may be off-white, or in about 30% of cases, black or brown. They have small ears, short, thin legs, and their belly is bare. The back legs are inclined forward so that they can walk on steep meadows easily.
Height of rams is 64 cm (25 in) and ewes 60 cm (24 in) at the withers. A breeding ewe provides approximately 1.23 lambs per litter, lactates for 210 days and in that time yields 221 kg (487 lb) of milk with 6.3% fat.

## Numbers

In 2012 a population in Slovenia of 3500 was reported to DAD-IS. Other sources estimate the number of pure-bred examples there at 1200. The Krainer Steinschaf population in Austria was reported to be in the range 2719–4000 in 2012.
The Plezzana is one of the forty-two autochthonous local sheep breeds of limited distribution for which a herdbook is kept by the Associazione Nazionale della Pastorizia, the Italian national association of sheep-breeders; in 2013 the herdbook was empty. The population in Italy is estimated at 40–50 head.
# Dietrich V, Count of Cleves

Dietrich V was Count of Cleves from 1202 through 1260. Dietrich was born about 1185 as the son of Dietrich IV, Count of Cleves and Margaret of Holland.
In 1234, he participated in the Stedinger Crusade.

## Marriage and issue

In c. 1215 he married Mathilda of Dinslaken (d. 1226). Their children were:
* Dietrich of Cleves (c.1216), married Elizabeth of Brabant
* Margaretha of Cleves (c.1218), married Otto II of Guelders
Secondly, he married Hedwig of Meissen (d. 1249), daughter of Theodoric I, Margrave of Meissen. Their children were:
* A first son who died young
* Dietrich VI of Cleves (1245–75), married Adelaide of Heinsberg

# Lautaro Lodge

The Lautaro Lodge (Spanish: Logia Lautaro) was a revolutionary secret lodge active in Latin American politics in the 19th century. It was initially known as the Lodge of Rational Knights (Spanish: Logia de los Caballeros Racionales). Its initial purposes were to apply the goals of the Spanish Enlightenment, and when Spain began the Absolutist Restoration they promoted instead the emancipation of the South American colonies.

## Creation in Europe

It was for many years believed to have been founded as an extension of the British lodge "The Great American Reunion", created by Venezuelan revolutionary Francisco de Miranda. However, recent research suggests that the Lodge was founded in Cadiz, Spain, and that Miranda was not amongst its founders, as he himself was living in Paris at the time, from where he returned to London in January 1798. As with other secret societies, such details are difficult to investigate by historians, given the secrecy of their activities. Both lodges had just a superficial compromise with freemasonry, taking advantage of their secret societies merely as a tool to promote liberal agendas, evading punishment from absolutist governments of the time.

## Buenos Aires

A number of officers from the Peninsular War, such as José de San Martín, Carlos María de Alvear, José Matías Zapiola, Francisco Chilavert and Eduardo Kailitz left Cádiz and moved to Buenos Aires. They began to organise a secret lodge, similar to the one in Cádiz. There were other secret lodges already working in Buenos Aires: the anglophile lodges "Hiram sons" and "Southern Star", and the "Patriotic Society" that united the former supporters of Mariano Moreno. This last lodge, opposed to the first two ones, was integrated into the new one created by the Spanish generals.

## Name

Although the lodge is most commonly known as "Lautaro", it did not employ that name during all of its existence. The name made reference to Mapuche leader Lautaro, which made sense in Santiago de Chile in the 1817-1820 period, but not in Buenos Aires in 1812 and much less in Europe. Historian Vicente Fidel López points that "Lautaro" was really a masonic code meaning "Expedition to Chile", but similarly, Chile was not a military target for Buenos Aires in 1812. By that point, Chile was still in the Patria Vieja period, and would not fall into royalist control until the 1814 Disaster of Rancagua. Although the secrecy makes difficult to investigate the purposes or even the name, Alcibíades Lappas considers instead that the lodge was named "Lodge of Rational Knights" in 1812, just like the Cádiz one, and that San Martín renamed it "Lautaro" when he recreated it in 1815, after the fall of Alvear.
# Martin Isaac Wilkins

# Silly Thing

"Silly Thing" is a song by the Sex Pistols that was released in 1979. It was the 3rd single released in promotion of the film The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle. It was written by drummer Paul Cook and guitarist Steve Jones, and recorded after the band's original lead singer, Johnny Rotten, left the band. Typically, Jones also played bass in the studio, rather than suffer the ineptitude of the band's official bassist, Sid Vicious.

## "Silly Thing" (A-side)
### Paul Cook album version

The original version of the song, on which Paul Cook sings lead vocals and Steve Jones plays bass guitar, was recorded with engineer Steve Lipson at Regents Park Studios in London in April or May 1978.

This original version of "Silly Thing" appeared on the movie soundtrack album of The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle and was used for the single in New Zealand, France and Japan.
A different mix of this original version, with Cook singing the verses and Jones singing the chorus, was released in 1988 in Japan, along with an outtake from the same recording sessions, the original version of the Jones/Cook composition "Here We Go Again".

### Steve Jones single version

In the second week of March 1979, Jones and Cook went into Wessex Studios in London with engineer Bill Price and recorded a new version of the song. On this version, bass guitar was played by Andy Allen of the Lightning Raiders, who later in the year formed The Professionals with Cook and Jones.
This version of "Silly Thing" was used for the single in the UK, Australia, West Germany and Portugal. It appeared on the 1992 Sex Pistols compilation Kiss This.

## "Who Killed Bambi?" (B-side)

The song "Who Killed Bambi?" was written and sung by Edward Tudor-Pole, with Vivienne Westwood contributing to the lyrics.
The song was recorded with a 45 piece orchestra, arranged and conducted by Andrew Jackman, in a large studio in Wembley in summer 1978. Tudor-Pole's vocals were added later at the same studio.
The subsequent movie sequence of Tudor-Pole performing the song was filmed in one day with actress Irene Handl at Rainbow Theatre in London.
