  • A Cooperative Model for Preserving Historical Television News Content by Morgan Gieringer
    A Cooperative Model for Preserving Historical Television News Content By Morgan Gieringer ABSTRACT: The University of North Texas (UNT) and the Dallas-Fort Worth (Tex- as) affiliate station of the National Broadcasting Company (NBC 5/KXAS-TV) have partnered to preserve the archival programming content of the oldest television news station in Texas. This article addresses the partnership of the archives and the news sta- tion to create a fully digitally accessible archive, as well as the challenges of large-scale preservation and digitization of audiovisual materials. Using a custodial partnership model, the archives and the news station have leveraged their own unique talents and abilities to make significant progress toward the goal of digitizing this historic collec- tion. This article highlights the progress made over the first five years of the partner- ship and the aspects of the partnership that have made the project successful. Introduction The archival profession must begin to confront the many challenges inherent in the large-scale preservation of twentieth-century audiovisual resources. A significant portion of our shared cultural heritage, including historical television news recordings, is at risk due to complicated copyright issues, degradation of the original media, the cost involved in digitizing audiovisual resources, and the difficulty of preserving high- resolution digital video files. The NBC 5/KXAS-TV project highlights the extreme difficulties inherent in preserving twentieth-century television news content, but also demonstrates the cultural significance and importance of preserving this content for future generations. Unfortunately, a large amount of twentieth-century broadcast news content has already been lost, as television news reporters and production staff focus on the here and now, and yesterday’s news was only intended to be recorded and preserved for a short period of time.

  • Raoul Walsh to Attend Opening of Retrospective Tribute at Museum
    The Museum of Modern Art jl west 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart NO. 34 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE RAOUL WALSH TO ATTEND OPENING OF RETROSPECTIVE TRIBUTE AT MUSEUM Raoul Walsh, 87-year-old film director whose career in motion pictures spanned more than five decades, will come to New York for the opening of a three-month retrospective of his films beginning Thursday, April 18, at The Museum of Modern Art. In a rare public appearance Mr. Walsh will attend the 8 pm screening of "Gentleman Jim," his 1942 film in which Errol Flynn portrays the boxing champion James J. Corbett. One of the giants of American filmdom, Walsh has worked in all genres — Westerns, gangster films, war pictures, adventure films, musicals — and with many of Hollywood's greatest stars — Victor McLaglen, Gloria Swanson, Douglas Fair­ banks, Mae West, James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Marlene Dietrich and Edward G. Robinson, to name just a few. It is ultimately as a director of action pictures that Walsh is best known and a growing body of critical opinion places him in the front rank with directors like Ford, Hawks, Curtiz and Wellman. Richard Schickel has called him "one of the best action directors...we've ever had" and British film critic Julian Fox has written: "Raoul Walsh, more than any other legendary figure from Hollywood's golden past, has truly lived up to the early cinema's reputation for 'action all the way'...." Walsh's penchant for action is not surprising considering he began his career more than 60 years ago as a stunt-rider in early "westerns" filmed in the New Jersey hills.

It is not often that one is afforded the chance to read a book about a sitting Chief Justice of the United States written by a convicted felon.1 I initially had high expectations of this text, as its author, John W. Dean III, was a central player in President Richard Nixon’s White House. At first glance, the book appears to be well researched, as Dean relied heavily on 420 hours of President Nixon’s White House Tapes, which were released on October 16, 2000.2 The text, however, does little more than dredge up old charges leveled against Chief Justice William Rehnquist.

  • University of Florida Law Review
    University of Florida Law Review VOLUME XXVIII WINTER 1976 NUMBER 2 LAW, CAPITALISM, AND THE FUTURE A. DEFINING THE ENTREPRENEUR: WEBER'S PROTESTANT ETIDC REFINED EDITOR'S NOTE: Departing from the usual style of a law review article, the following manuscript not only invites but requires extensive participation by the reader in analyzing the function of the law in relation to capitalism. The author adopts an unorthodox technique and weaves together seemingly un­ related ideas. For example. by interjecting a lengthy quote from a 1964 Supreme Court decision, the author bids the reader to determine whether the law can serve "as a successful control device" in the face of the increasing internationali­ zation of capitalism. Moreover, the web of ideas that the author spins does not suggest facile distinctions or conclusions. From the confusing and complex bombardment of ideas, analogies, and theories, the reader hopefully will dis­ cover perceptions worthy of the challenge. I The Inadequacies of Weber's Ideal Type (i) History is the story of what happened, and the most instructive explana­ tions - those most deserving of the historical title - are the ones that most satisfactorily account for the presence of the phenomenon whose behavior is being described. Historical explanations are therefore judged both in terms of how well they explain given instances of a phenomenon and how many such instances they explain. Why Weber's explanation of entrepreneurship was so satisfactory is a question for the social and intellectual histories of the times during which it has been accepted. This article offers an explanation for the generally accepted proposition that Weber's theory explains remarkably few of the known instances of entrepreneurship.

  • A Distant Trumpet
    A Distant Trumpet Music by Max Steiner (1964) [movie***] [music ****] https://www.wbshop.com/products/distant-trumpet-a-mod [NOTE: This manuscript was cut & pasted from my large DVD Collection analyses paper] This “picture” (as Max would normally call a “movie”) scored by Steiner is still available at Warner Archive (see the link immediately above). It is beautifully shot in terms of locales (New Mexico and Arizona), usually very bright and desert dry scenes (except for a rainy night sequence with the Suzanne Pleshette character (Kitty) holed up in a cave with the Troy Donahue character (Lt. Matt Hazard). This is located 19 minutes into the movie. It’s an enjoyable picture to watch now and then but it certainly is no classic western (despite being directed by Raoul Walsh)! The first half of the movie kept me interested but it got to be rather tiresome afterward, especially that long, drawn-out Indian battle about an half and a half into the movie! I primarily purchased the dvd because of the music score by Max Steiner, one of his very last assignments. I researched the written full score 1 at USC-Warner Brothers Archives in the Research Annex just off-campus at 3716 S. Hope on March 11, 2005. How time flies. That was nearly six years ago. I do not plan to do an official “rundown” on the music since I worked very little on the score (not enough time). I managed to touch upon (hand- copy) segments of the first two or three reels of cues. While not a top drawer Steiner score, it is nevertheless still characteristically vibrant and energetic.
