  • Statement of the Department of Justice on the Closing of the Antitrust Division’S Review of the ASCAP and BMI Consent Decrees
    DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Statement of the Department of Justice on the Closing of the Antitrust Division’s Review of the ASCAP and BMI Consent Decrees Washington, D.C. August 4, 2016 The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) and Broadcast Music, Inc. (BMI) are “performing rights organizations” (PROs). PROs provide licenses to users such as bar owners, television and radio stations, and internet music distributors that allow them to publicly perform the musical works of the PROs’ thousands of songwriter and music publisher members. These “blanket licenses” enable music users to immediately obtain access to millions of songs without resorting to individualized licensing determinations or negotiations. But because a blanket license provides at a single price the rights to play many separately owned and competing songs – a practice that risks lessening competition – ASCAP and BMI have long raised antitrust concerns. ASCAP and BMI are subject to consent decrees that resolved antitrust lawsuits brought by the United States in 1941 alleging that each organization had unlawfully exercised market power acquired through the aggregation of public performance rights in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1. The consent decrees seek to prevent the anticompetitive exercise of market power while preserving the transformative benefits of blanket licensing. In the decades since the ASCAP and BMI consent decrees were entered, industry participants have benefited from the “unplanned, rapid and indemnified access” to the vast repertories of songs that each PRO’s blanket licenses make available. Broadcast Music, Inc. v. CBS, Inc., 441 U.S. 1, 20 (1979).

In Sweden, one oracular method was a ritual known as year walk, and those who ventured on this perilous journey were known as year walkers. Success meant that the omen-seeker could acquire knowledge of the following year; it was a ritual that sought answers regarding the unbearable uncertainty of being. Year walk (or annual walk) is known in Swedish as årsgång, with regional and lexical variations: ådergång, julagång, ödegång, adergång, dödsgång, sjukyrkegång, and so on. Although the term årsgång has a southern Swedish pattern of distribution (Götaland), similar practices, as well as the same motifs in different types of folk legends, are common and can be found throughout the Nordic countries.

  • Alexandria and Belhaven a Case of Dual Identity
    City of Alexandria Office of Historic Alexandria Alexandria Archaeology Studies of the Old Waterfront Alexandria and Belhaven A Case of Dual Identity By Diane Riker © 2009 We returned down the river about 16 miles to Alexandria or Belhaven, a small trading place in one of the finest situations imaginable. Archdeacon Burnaby, October 17591 For the first dozen years of its history, Alexandria, Virginia, was a town with two names. The majority of those who lived, worked and visited here on the crescent bay by the Potomac knew it as Alexandria, while some of its most prominent citizens called it Belhaven. Others, including mapmakers and the visiting archdeacon quoted above, accepted the difference and used both names. More than a century after the initial sales of Alexandria lots took place in mid-July 1749, the first comprehensive history of the town was written. Its author, William F. Carne, claimed that Belhaven had predated Alexandria by at least a decade. In his series of articles published in the Alexandria Gazette in the 1870s and 1880s,2 Carne described a bustling little community of merchants and their families residing at the river end of Oronoco Street as early as the 1730s. In an otherwise estimable work, it was a questionable theory. But it proved contagious. Numerous historians have adopted this view. Which came first: Alexandria or Belhaven? This paper will attempt to disentangle fact from fantasy. Earliest References to Alexandria Among the George Washington papers in the Library of Congress is a half page of smudgy and hurried script, the output perhaps of someone taking notes out of doors.

  • The Piano Lesson
    THE PIANO LESSON Synopsis The Piano Lesson is set in Pittsburgh in 1936. Boy Willie has come to his uncle’s house to retrieve a piano that holds significant historical and sentimental value to the family. A battle ensues over the possession of the piano, which carries the legacy and opportunities of the characters and determines the choices they must make. Characters AVERY: Thirty-eight years old, Avery is a preacher who is trying to build up his congregation. He is honest and ambitious, finding himself opportunities in the city that were unavailable to him in rural areas of the South. While fervently religious, he manages to find the time to court Berniece after her husband’s death. BOY WILLIE: Brother to Berniece, Boy Willie is a thirty year old brash, impulsive, and fast-talking man. He has an infectious grin and a boyishness that is apt for his name. His story provides the central conflict for the play in that he plans to sell the family piano in order to buy land that his family worked on as slaves. He feels it’s important he does this in order to avenge his father, who grew up property-less— but not everyone in the family agrees. LYMON: Boy Willie’s long time friend is a twenty-nine year old who speaks little, but when he does with a disarming straight-forwardness. As he flees the law, he makes a plan to begin anew in the North. Eliciting stories from the families past, Lymon proves a vehicle by which we learn about the family.

  • "Many a Mickle Makes a Muckle": George Washington's Scottish Connections
    " "Many a Mickle Makes a Muckle": George Washington's Scottish Connections A Talk by Mary V. Thompson Research Specialist Mount Vernon Ladies' Association To the Clan McAllister of America At the Double-Tree Hotel Falls Church, Virginia Friday, July 2, 2004 Revised slightly, 7/6/2004 As we begin today, I'd like you to picture in your mind some still photographs of scenes from George Washington's life (Iknow the camera hadn't been invented yet, but please just humor me for a minute). There is George Washington, the quintessential American-strong, rugged, exhibiting both physical and moral bravery, as he crossed an ice-choked river to surprise the Hessians at Trenton during the Revolution. Or there is George Washington, the Southern gentleman, entertaining guests in his beautiful mansion or recklessly following his hounds as they chased a wily fox across the fields. Yet again, there is also Washington the elder statesman on the dollar bill, a firm leader, filled with wisdom gained through a long life in public service. In a way, all these snapshots of Washington are true, but when you animate these scenes by adding sound and action to the pictures, you might well hear Scottish voices as you listen to the dialogue. While Washington's own Scottish ancestry is a bit questionable, many of his friends, employees, and admirers were I undoubtedly from that country and I thought it might be fun to look at Washington's life, with a focus on those individuals. When he was contacted by an Englishman about his genealogy, George Washington wrote that this was a subject "to which I confess I have paid very little attention.

Although the theory of interpretation, Hermeneutics, shows us the incredible complexity of interpreting and understanding the written word, we will take a systematic approach to this analysis of Korngold’s song cycle, Sechs einfache Lieder (Bjørn Ramberg and Kristin Gjesdal). First, we must understand what the genre “ Lied ” is, learn about the composer, and discover the meaning behind the poetry to which the cycle is set. All of the translations done in this project were results of my own knowledge of the German language, Dr. Spohr’s and Mrs. Scholl’s knowledge of German, and through the help of Dict.cc , an online English-German dictionary. Lieder The Lied , established in Germany, is a very distinct subgenre of vocal music.
