  • Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975)”—The Eagles (1976) Added to the Registry: 2016 Essay by Marc Eliot (Guest Post)*
    “Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975)”—The Eagles (1976) Added to the Registry: 2016 Essay by Marc Eliot (guest post)* The Eagles In 1971, the arrival of The Eagles signaled a major shift in popular musical tastes in America. If Woodstock was the funeral for both the music and the culture of a decade of drugged out, hippie, free love and cultish idealism, the Seventies was the decade of blatant decadence, political cynicism, sexual distrust, and rampant narcissism. No band represented both the rejection of the Sixties and the celebration of the Seventies more than its crown princes, the Eagles. Songs like “Lyin’ Eyes,” “Witchy Woman,” “One of These Nights,” and “Already Gone,” filled with spirited playing, close harmonies and an overlay of the Eagles’ war between the sexes, comprise four of the ten selections included in the initial compilation of Eagles’ hit songs from their first four albums, “Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975).” Ironically, although the Eagles’ laid-back sound was bright and natural as Southern California sunshine, none of the original four members were Golden State natives (Don Henley, vocalist, lyricist, drummer, was from Texas, bred on bluegrass and country music; Glenn Frey, vocalist, lyricist, rhythm guitar, pianist, came from the streets of Detroit, influenced by the music of Motown and mentored by Bob Seger; Randy Meisner, on bass, was a veteran bar band night sider out of Nebraska; Bernie Leadon, guitar, mandolin, banjo, was a Minnesotan who loved and loved to play classic country). Each migrated separately to Los Angeles, like lemmings, to The Troubadour, the musical and cultural ground zero club on Santa Monica Boulevard, owned and operated by Doug Weston, who favored putting on his stage country-rock bands and female vocalists.

  • History of the U.S. Attorneys
    Bicentennial Celebration of the United States Attorneys 1789 - 1989 "The United States Attorney is the representative not of an ordinary party to a controversy, but of a sovereignty whose obligation to govern impartially is as compelling as its obligation to govern at all; and whose interest, therefore, in a criminal prosecution is not that it shall win a case, but that justice shall be done. As such, he is in a peculiar and very definite sense the servant of the law, the twofold aim of which is that guilt shall not escape or innocence suffer. He may prosecute with earnestness and vigor– indeed, he should do so. But, while he may strike hard blows, he is not at liberty to strike foul ones. It is as much his duty to refrain from improper methods calculated to produce a wrongful conviction as it is to use every legitimate means to bring about a just one." QUOTED FROM STATEMENT OF MR. JUSTICE SUTHERLAND, BERGER V. UNITED STATES, 295 U. S. 88 (1935) Note: The information in this document was compiled from historical records maintained by the Offices of the United States Attorneys and by the Department of Justice. Every effort has been made to prepare accurate information. In some instances, this document mentions officials without the “United States Attorney” title, who nevertheless served under federal appointment to enforce the laws of the United States in federal territories prior to statehood and the creation of a federal judicial district. INTRODUCTION In this, the Bicentennial Year of the United States Constitution, the people of America find cause to celebrate the principles formulated at the inception of the nation Alexis de Tocqueville called, “The Great Experiment.” The experiment has worked, and the survival of the Constitution is proof of that.

  • MESSENGER Reveals Mercury in New Detail 16 January 2008
    MESSENGER Reveals Mercury in New Detail 16 January 2008 It is already clear that MESSENGER’s superior camera will tell us much that could not be resolved even on the side of Mercury viewed by Mariner’s vidicon camera in the mid-1970s. This MESSENGER image was taken from a distance of about18,000 kilometers (11,000 miles), about 56 minutes before the spacecraft's closest encounter with Mercury. It shows a region roughly 500 kilometers (300 miles) across, and craters as small as 1 kilometer (0.6 mile) can be seen in this image. Source: JHU/APL Credit: NASA/Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory/Carnegie Institution of Washington As MESSENGER approached Mercury on January 14, 2008, the spacecraft’s Narrow-Angle Camera on the Mercury Dual Imaging System (MDIS) instrument captured this view of the planet’s rugged, cratered landscape illuminated obliquely by the Sun. The large, shadow-filled, double ringed crater to the upper right was glimpsed by Mariner 10 more than three decades ago and named Vivaldi, after the Italian composer. Its outer ring has a diameter of about 200 kilometers (about 125 miles). MESSENGER’s modern camera has revealed detail that was not well seen by Mariner 10, including the broad ancient depression overlapped by the lower-left part of the Vivaldi crater. The MESSENGER science team is in the process of evaluating later images snapped from even closer range showing features on the side of Mercury never seen by Mariner 10. 1 / 2 APA citation: MESSENGER Reveals Mercury in New Detail (2008, January 16) retrieved 3 October 2021 from https://phys.org/news/2008-01-messenger-reveals-mercury.html This document is subject to copyright.

  • Fzzz Bxxx Build Document
    Fzzz Bxxx (Based on the Sam Ash Fuzzz Boxx) If the warm saturated tone of a late 60’s era Fuzz Face is not your thing, then this is probably the Fuzz you are looking for. This circuit produces a powerful and articulate tone that re-creates the sizzling fuzz of that era. Used by greats such as Leslie West (Mountain) and Tommy Bolin (Zephyr, James Gang & Deep Purple). The Fzzz Bxxx cleans up amazingly well with the twist of your Guitar volume producing powerful chiming clean tones on the brink of breakup. Our Fzzz Bxxx will yield up to 42dB of boost making it an excellent alternative to the Rangemaster. The Tone Pot has been enhanced to allow a full spectrum of tonal adjustments over the original. Cranking the Attack knob increases saturation, enabling maximum-strength Fuzz. This setting is great for warmer psychedelic soloing (American Woman) or some tight power chording: Credit to Analogman for the Tone Control insights and Wilkie1 for his contributions. Board Dimensions (W x H) 1.95” x 1.64” or 49.53mm x 41.66mm Build Notes: While this is a relatively simple circuit its unique character is apparent. Unfortunately, the original when available on eBay will get upward of $800. Build your own and get some similar classic tones. Transistors must be NPN. Suggested hFE for this build 120-180. The original use 2N3566 however since they are hard to find we suggest 2N3053 for its similar characteristics. The board is designed for a TO-39 package but feel free to use BC108, BC109 OR 2N222.
