Discharge Petition for H.R. 7152, the Civil Rights Act of 1964
Record Group 233: Records of the U.S. House of RepresentativesSeries: General Records
This item, H.R. 7152, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, faced strong opposition in the House Rules Committee. Howard Smith, Chairman of the committee, refused to schedule hearings for the bill. Emanuel Celler, Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, attempted to use this discharge petition to move the bill out of committee without holding hearings. The petition failed to gain the required majority of Congress (218 signatures), but forced Chairman Smith to schedule hearings.
88th CONGRESS. House of Representatives No. 5 Motion to Discharge a Committee from the Consideration of a RESOLUTION (State whether bill, joint resolution, or resolution) December 9, 1963 To the Clerk of the House of Representatives: Pursuant to Clause 4 of Rule XXVII (see rule on page 7), I EMANUEL CELLER (Name of Member), move to discharge to the Commitee on RULES (Committee) from the consideration of the RESOLUTION; H. Res. 574 entitled, a RESOLUTION PROVIDING FOR THE CONSIDERATION OF THE BILL (H. R. 7152) which was referred to said committee November 27, 1963 in support of which motion the undersigned Members of the House of Representatives affix their signatures, to wit: 1. Emanuel Celler 2.

Justice Samuel Alito apparently decided to test out some new stand-up material when the Supreme Court held oral arguments on Monday.
While hearing the case of a Christian graphic artist in Colorado who says designing wedding websites for gay couples is against her faith, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson asked attorney Kristen Waggoner whether, following her arguments, a hypothetical photographer would be able to refuse taking photos of a white Santa Claus with Black children.
Waggoner, who is representing the designer, responded that the photographer would be able to refuse taking the photos.
Alito later tried to turn around Jackson’s analogy by asking whether a Black Santa had to have his picture taken with a child dressed in a Ku Klux Klan robe.
Colorado Solicitor General Eric Olson said no, adding that “Ku Klux Klan outfits are not protected characteristics under public accommodation laws.”
Justice Sonia Sotomayor then chimed in that, “presumedly, that would be the same Ku Klux Klan outfit regardless whether if the child was Black or white or any other characteristic.”
Alito then joked, “You do see a lot of Black children in Ku Klux Klan outfits all the time.”
Tumblr media
Alito, who wrote the majority opinion in the case of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, reversing the high court’s half-century-old ruling in Roe v. Wade, decided he was on a roll and kept up the yuks by suggesting Justice Elena Kagan was familiar with Ashley Madison, a dating site for people looking to have affairs.
Many Twitter users were shocked by Alito’s attempt at levity.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Lili-Babs, Samuel Barber, Carl Betz, the late, great guitarist Chris Bovard, Trevor Burton (The Move), John Cale, Robert Calvert (Hawkwind), Ornette Coleman, Jane Antonia Cornish, Jim Cregan, Jerry Eubanks (Marshall Tucker), Jimmie Fadden, Linda Fiorentino, Martin Fry (ABC), Will Geer, Mickey Gilley, Zakir Hussain, Raul Julia, Kato Kaelin, Laura Lee, Mahler’s 3rd Symphony (1897), Mark Mancina, Jeffrey Osborne, Lloyd Price, Bobby Sands, Thomas Schippers, Bodhi Setchko, Keely Smith, Taeyeon, Chris Thompson (Mannfred Mann’s Earth Band), Diego Torres, Robin Trower, U2’s 1987 JOSHUA TREE album, Gary Walker (Standells, Walker Brothers), Paul Winter, and one of the greatest frontman in rock’n’roll: Mark Lindsay, best known as the singer for Paul Revere & The Raiders. In their major label era of the 1960s and early 70s, PR&TR were one of the tightest and most visible acts in the business. They were the first real rock band signed to Columbia Records, and their garage band energy and declarative stage look pushed back on the British Invasion bands of 1964.
The Raiders kicked out hit after hit in multiple genres including bubblegum, country rock, hard rock, psychedelia, and soul/r’n’b, all with dazzling excellence. They cut the first definitive version of “Louie Louie” before leaving their Oregon base for Los Angeles, joining Terry Melcher (Byrds producer) to launch a prolific and innovative run of great records that still play today: “Just Like Me”, “Kicks” and (recently in the film ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD) “Good Thing,” “Hungry,” “Mr. Sun Mr. Moon,” etc. Between 1965 and 1970, as Dick Clark expanded his jukebox TV empires, he hired PR&TR to host three TV shows. Before The Monkees even twanged “Last Train to Clarksville,” PR&TR had already set the bar for TV bands, gluing pre-adolescent me to the tube with rock’n’roll comedy and ear candy—and there was eye candy for 1000s of girls screaming for teen idol Mark Lindsay. He set the bar as a powerhouse vocalist, able to croon soft sensual pop ballads then flip to paint-peeling bluesy growls.
The Raiders crested in 1971 with the #1 hit “Indian Reservation,” which was a repackaging of a Mark Lindsay solo recording (backed by the Wrecking Crew). As a solo act, Mark was already charting with “Silver Bird” and the hippy girl anthem “Arizona.” He branched into other music business roles, composing jingles and songs for films and TV shows. Legendary author Stephen King expressed his fan-dom with Mark’s 2001 cover of “Treat Her Right,” backed by Los Straitjackets. 
Meanwhile, Mark’s career intersected with The Carpenters, The Chesterfield Kings, Eric Johnson, Carla Olson, Gerry Rafferty, Barbra Streisand, Dionne Warwick, and The Monkees, whose orbit led me to cross paths with Mark a couple of times, and he always treated me like a gentleman. I first saw him in concert in 1993, and it was a rock solid show loaded with the hits and deep cuts. Lately he’s been active doing radio shows and webcasts, the latest being “The American Revolution” on Sirius XM.
If I had to pick one Mark Lindsay track, it’s "Too Much Talk.” It blew my mind when I was a kid—my 45 of it cracked but I kept pressing it with my fingers till the vinyl tissued. The fidelity on this clip is a tad distorted, but the visuals speak volumes. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EG30aN53GkY Meanwhile, HB and thank you Mark for continuing to inspire and entertain with your skills and talents.

Modernismo Tardio
En literatura, el término modernismo tardío se refiere a obras literarias producidas después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Sin embargo, existen varias definiciones diferentes de la literatura modernista tardía. El más común se refiere a obras publicadas entre 1930 y 1939, o 1945.  Sin embargo, hay modernistas, como Basil Bunting (1900-1985) y TS Eliot (1888-1965), que escribieron después de 1945, y Samuel Beckett , que murió en 1989, ha sido descrito como un "modernista posterior".  El autor afroamericano James Baldwin también ha sido llamado un "modernista tardío", al igual que los poetas de la Generación Beat . Eliot publicó dos obras en la década de 1950 y el largo poema modernista de Bunting " Briggflatts " se publicó en 1965. Los poetas Charles Olson (1910-1970) y JH Prynne (1936-) son, entre otros escritos de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, que han sido descritos como modernistas tardíos.  Existe la cuestión adicional de si la literatura modernista tardía difiere de alguna manera importante de las obras modernistas producidas antes de 1930. Para confundir las cosas, más recientemente el término modernismo tardío ha sido redefinido por al menos un crítico y utilizado para referirse a obras escritas después de 1945, en lugar de 1930. Con este uso va la idea de que la ideología del modernismo fue remodelada significativamente por los eventos de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, especialmente el Holocausto y el lanzamiento de la bomba atómica.

Clifford Olson - Canadian serial killer
Clifford Olson was a notorious Canadian serial killer and yet has slipped into obscurity compared to some American mass murderers as TV historian Tony McMahon reports
The United States and United Kingdom have seen their fair share of serial killers. But Canada, that peaceful and calm country, is also capable of producing the occasional serial killer. For example, Clifford Olson (1940-2011) who murdered eleven children and youths in the early 1980s. This was the murderous decade that gave us Jeffrey Dahmer, Aileen Wuornos, and Samuel Little in the U.S. and…

Review "The Absent Minded Professor"
Tumblr media
I watched "The Absent Minded Professor" directed by Robert Stevenson and starring Fred MacMurray and Nancy Olson. I thought Fred MacMurray was entertaining and amusing. Nancy Olson played a rather stereotypical role for the time which wouldn't be considered correct in today's world by most people. Of course, that's not her fault but rather that of the writers. Keenan Wynn played a corrupt businessman who was a bit full of himself, as was his son played by Tommy Kirk Ed Wynn had a brief appearance as the fire chief who tried to save a bouncing Keenan Wynn. Of course I enjoyed the antics of Charlie the dog.
From IMDb: "A college professor invents an anti-gravity substance which a corrupt businessman wants for himself. "
The review from Variety by "Variety Staff" notes "On the surface, Walt Disney’s The Absent Minded Professor is a comedy-fantasy of infectious absurdity, a natural follow-up to the studio’s Shaggy Dog. But deeply rooted within the screenplay [from a story by Samuel W. Taylor] is a subtle protest against the detached, impersonal machinery of modern progress."
I think think it is a fun, light movie and a pleasant break from more serious films.
This was a dvd release from Disney movie and I thought the quality was good. Thie film is b&w rather than color, which I think was more prevalent at the time.
