Issue No 2 – Autumn 1977
The Edinburgh Geologist ~ November 1977 Cover Picture. This view of Suilven, one of the isolated west Sutherland peaks of Torridonian Sandstone resting on a pavement of Lewisian Gneiss, was drawn in 1888 on the back of a Geological Su~~ey field map by Dr B N Peach. Many of Peach ' s field maps are embellished with similar drawings of landscapes, geological sections , animals or rustic scenes. Reproduced with permission of the Director of the Institute of Geological Sciences. HISTORY OF TIlE SNARCH .I!'OR GOl,D VElNG IN THE LEADHILLS-WANLOCKHEAD DISTRICT "No charges whatsoever should be spared, till mountains and mosses were turned into vallies and dales • • • • and to turne brookes, rivers and cloughes from their courses, and so to run over mountains. And they hoped in that manner to find out the bedd or vaine of Gold in Scotland". Stephen Atkinson, 1619. 1 That part of the Southern Uplands, in the vicinity of the Leadhills and Wanlockhead lead-zinc mining district, was anciently the location of the "gold mynes in Scotland". Mounds of debris, old watercourses, the "gowd scaurs" along the valleys of the Glengonnar, Shortcleuch and Wanlock Waters testify to the large scale exploitation of the river gravels during the 16th Century. The degree of success of these early operations can be judged from the documentary evidence extant. The Treasurer's Accounts for the years 1538 to 1542, for example, relate that the gold mines, while under the management of John Mossman, produced 411 ozs of gold for a crown for the King and 35 ozs of gold for a crown for the Queen2• Much of the gold coinage of James V and Mary Queen of Scots was minted from gold from the district3• Bevis Bulmer, the Great Elizabethan mining expert4, is reputed to have employed 300 men at Leadhills and that in three summers' work obtained gold valued at £100 000 sterli~. -

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract We retrieve three mysterious sentences Albert Einstein wrote in the early years of his wondrous scientific career. We examine their implications and we suggest that they provide a surprising new basis for Quantum Physics as well as some enlightenment concerning the whereabouts of Dark energy. Keywords Einstein, Absolute Measurements, Electromagnetic Energy, m = E/c2, Space Points, Dark Energy, M. S. El Naschie, Quantum Meteorites 1. Introduction Einstein’s name is affixed to stunning discoveries made in the field of theoretical physics in the early years of the twentieth century. Less known is the fact that, even as he worked then as a Technical assistant Third Class in the Swiss Patent Office in Bern, Einstein also made a genuine great invention (i.e. discovered a hidden treasury, as in archeology) which has remained unnoticed hitherto. We retrieve this invention in the present note and we examine what it entails. Three mysterious sentences that Einstein wrote at that time will help us in this endeavor. -

CURREN$Y Verde Terrace 8.23.11 JetLife Recordings / Warner Bros. Records Hip-hop artists who need help figuring out their live show, talk to Spitta. Philadelphia Weekly New Orleans weed-rapper Curren$y has built a large following over the past few years for his mellowed-out rhymes and spacey instrumentals, releasing a string of solid albums and mixtapes at a nearly inhuman rate. Riverfront Times "You also can't argue against the fact that Curren$y's both prolific and consistent, a rare quality if there ever was one." PrefixMag.com "There is not a week that goes by, where his name isn’t either buzzing or trending online, something new drops on the radio, or there is new material available on iTunes." stupidDOPE.com Verde Terrace doesn't break any new territory for Curren$y, but "new territory" isn't really part of his M.O.-- he is digging a groove, one into which he settles more comfortably each year…Curren$y is refining the contours of his tiny universe so that it resembles no one else's. Pitchfork.com, Verde Terrace review (7.3 of 10) Curren$y understands the formula to creating a cult following: consistent, high quality music delivered frequently…Spitta offers an album full of his standard weed, women and clothes that made him the cult icon and fan favorite he is now. Off Beat Magazine, album review Curren$y’s the paradox in the microwave rap argument. Ology.com, mixtape review (3 of 5) With that, Curren$y and his Jets crew add to his ever-growing discography of mixtapes. -

Dressed in the black cloak and cap of a magician, the artist, with bulging eyes and open mouth, has witnessed this apparition while standing behind a table filled with books, some with alchemical notations, a variety of vessels, a snuffed-out candle, and a skull resting on hot coals. To emphasize the personal character of this dramatic image, Van Laer prominently signed this work on the musical score lying in the foreground, its lyrics warning that “the devil doesn’t jest.” Clearly, in his conjuring up a world of occult forces, the magician has unleashed realms far beyond his control, and he is about to suffer the consequences of his audacity. -

New Urban Demands in Early Modern London
Medical History, Supplement No. 11, 1991: 2940. NEW URBAN DEMANDS IN EARLY MODERN LONDON Rosemary Weinstein From 1550 onwards, London grew and changed enormously, with the attendant problems of disease and disorder. The combined impact of "rapid immigration, recurrent mortality crises and population growth applied critical pressures to the social and administrative structures" ofthe metropolis.' This paper gives an overview ofhow local authorities endeavoured to deal with problems of drainage, water supply, and street cleaning between 1500 and 1700. Despite London's growth in area and population, it continued to have two separate administrative centres-the Court of Common Council in the City, and from 1585 the Court of Burgesses at Westminster. Outside the City liberties and Westminster, the Middlesex Justices of the Peace (the royal representatives) were responsible, either collectively or as individuals, for law and order. This division led to conflict over public responsibilities. The City, for example, could not compel the Middlesex Justices to clear the Fleet River above Holborn Bridge ofthe filth which polluted the downstream City ward of Farringdon Without. No single authority ran hospitals and almshouses, organized street cleaning or policed streets in the new suburbs east and west of the City-Stepney, Soho, and St James's. "Many problems of drainage and flood prevention, safe building, welfare, fire prevention, medical care and education were outside the powers of the Justices of the Peace and the parish vestries to control. Various ad hoc bodies were set up to deal with these problems",2 as we shall see. The Corporation of London has a tradition extending back to the Middle Ages of care for the health ofthe citizens. -
Terror Since the Public School Error: Reconciling Hip Hop and Education 2
Terror Since the Public School Error: Reconciling Hip Hop and Education Randy Ojeda & Eduardo Roman Loyola University Chicago School of Law Education Law and Policy, 2013 Terror Since the Public School Error: Reconciling Hip Hop and Education 2 Introduction Hip Hop and Education have been presented as oppositional spheres of influence in youth culture. Since its inception, Hip Hop has promoted values that conflict with the aim of the Public Education System. This division was created by the educational budget cuts which led to the rise of Hip Hop instrumentation and ethic. These budgetary cuts, along with the Hip Hop movement it birthed, enforced a culture of destabilization and anti-education in inner-city schools. However, these two spheres of influence can in fact overlap successfully to the benefit of educating urban youth. A possible solution to ending this ceiling of stagnation is using hip hop culture as a tool for education. While Hip Hop has created an urban youth culture of destabilization and anti-education, an embracing of hip hop by the educational system could lead to the development of social consciousness and critical skills both in and out of the classroom.
