MONEYBALL 2011
I know these guys. I know the way they think, and they will erase us. And everything we've done here, none of it'll matter. Any other team wins the World Series, good for them. They're drinking champagne, they get a ring. But if we win, on our budget, with this team... we'll have changed the game. And that's what I want. I want it to mean something.

Okay, I don't give a shit about friendship, this situation, or the past. Major League Baseball thinks the way I think. You're not gonna win.

Elfeledett jeles mesterremekek 31. – Blackfoot: Marauder (1981)
Elfeledett jeles mesterremekek 31. – Blackfoot: Marauder (1981) - https://metalindex.hu/2021/07/05/elfeledett-jeles-mesterremekek-31-blackfoot-marauder-1981/ -
A southern rock nem igazán európai stílus, az itteni népszerűsége meg sem közelíti az ottanit, hiába Gojko Mitic és Limonádovy Joe. A Lynyrd Skynyrd azért errefelé is megvan, a Molly Hatchet még csak-csak, de a Blackfoot már nem igazán ütötte át az ingerküszöböt. Erre utal legalábbis az, hogy a “Blackfoot zenekar lemezkritika” kifejezés a gugliban néhány említésnél – azok is jobbára tőlem – többet nem hoz fel. Pedig egy, a ’60-as évek végén alakult patinás és legendás bandáról van szó. Igaz, többször voltak inaktívak az 50 éves pályafutásuk alatt, legtöbbször amúgy éppen azért, mert néhány tagot (köztük a banda kulcsemberét, a gitáros-énekes Rickey Medlocke-ot) átszippantotta a Lynyrd Skynyrd a soraiba.
1975-ben jelent meg az első albumuk, de pályafutásuk csúcsán egyértelműen ’79 és ’82 között voltak. Az 1979-es “Strikes” még egy igazi southern rock lemez, de már itt megvillantották, hogy ennél többre hivatottak és képesek (“Road Fever”, “Train Train” és minden idők egyik legjobb epikus száma – a “Child in Time” és a “Stairway to Heaven” után – a “Highway Song”). A “Tomcattin'” és a “Marauder” már inkább lettek vérbő hard rock korongok, déli behatásokkal-gyökerekkel persze.
Erre a korszakra a koronát (megint csak minden idők egyik legjobb élő felvétele a “Made in Japan” és a “The Song Remains the Same” után) a “Highway Song Live” tette fel 1982-ben, mely egy elementáris erőben lévő hiper-tehetséges southern hard rock bandát mutat (írtam róla korábban, ha valakit érdekel, megtalálja). Fene se gondolta, hogy mindezek után bevesznek egy billentyűst (mondjuk, ha már, akkor Ken Hensley-t), és egy teljesen más (dallamos) irányba mozdulnak el. A korszellem ugyebár…
Nem szidom az ezt követő megjelenéseket, mert azokon is találni egy-két jó számot (egyik napról a másikra nem lettek fos dalszerzők, sem szar zenészek), de az a korszak már inkább az AOR rajongóknak tud örömet szerezni. Míg a fent tárgyalt aranykor bárkinek, aki kedveli a tökös hard-heavy rockot, és nem vet meg némi egyediséget sem. Gondolok itt az autentikus western imázsra (több tag részben-egészben indián származású) és ízre (pl. bendzsó, zongora, trombita néhány számban – ne ijedj meg, ezek ettől még tényleg dögös lemezek), valamint arra a bizonyos nagybetűs fílingre, mely majd’ szétveti a szerzeményeket. Ez a muzsika csak ott születhetett meg, Európában nem.
Úgy látszik, ez nem olyan, mint a westernfilm, amit az NDK-tól az olaszokig mindenki megtanult többé-kevésbé élvezhetően csinálni. A muzsika mélyebbről jön, itt nem lehet csalni!

What we have: Representative democracy
A basic user's guide.
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
U.S. senators and congressmen represent the interests of their constituents at the federal level. The authorities of Congress include the passage of new federal legislation, the amending or repealing of existing federal laws and the spending of federal tax dollars.
U.S. Sen. John Boozman (R)
1401 W. Capitol Ave., Suite 155, Little Rock, 72201
372-7153
141 Hart Senate Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20510
202-224-4843
U.S. Sen. Tom Cotton (R)
P.O. Box 25216; Little Rock, 72221
223-9081
124 Russell Senate Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20510
202-224-2353
U.S. Rep. French Hill (R)
1501 N. University Ave., Suite 150, Little Rock, 72207
324-5941
1229 Longworth House Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20515
202-225-2506
STATE GOVERNMENT
Constitutional officers
Arkansas's executive branch is headed by the governor, who has ultimate authority over the operations of most state agencies, from the Department of Human Services to the Department of Correction. The second-most important statewide elected office is the attorney general, who serves as counsel for the state and acts as an advocate for consumers. The secretary of state has authority over Arkansas's election records (although the administration of elections is handled by county officials). In addition to the governor, attorney general and secretary of state, Arkansas has four other constitutional officer positions not listed below: lieutenant governor, auditor, treasurer and land commissioner (you probably won't ever have cause to deal with them).
Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R)
State Capitol, 500 Woodlane St., Room 250, Little Rock, 72201
682-2345
Attorney General Leslie Rutledge (R)
323 Center St., Room 200
General inquiries: 682-2007
Consumer hotline: 682-2341
Racial profiling hotline: 877-246-4404
Crime victims and outreach hotline: 682-1020
Medicaid fraud reporting hotline: 682-7760
Secretary of State Mark Martin (R)
State Capitol, 500 Woodlane St., Room 256
682-1010
State legislators representing a portion of Pulaski County
The Arkansas General Assembly creates the state's laws, controls how state tax revenue is spent and has limited influence over the operations of state agencies. Because state senators and representatives are elected to represent the interests of their constituents, contacting these officials is generally the most direct means for citizens to communicate with state government. Every resident of Arkansas has one senator and one representative. General inquiries to the House of Representatives can be directed to 682-6211 during the legislative session and 682-7771 when the General Assembly is not in session. The Senate's in-session number is 682-2902; its out-of-session number is 682-6107.

LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
County and municipal governments are responsible for administering local services, including law enforcement, maintenance of local roads, waste and recycling pickup, and maintenance of sewer and water systems. The county also runs the jail, administers local elections and collects property taxes.
The executive at the county level is the county judge, and the legislative body is the quorum court. The structure of municipal government varies according to the city: Some cities have a strong executive, others do not. In Little Rock, an unelected official, the city manager, is responsible for the broad day-to-day operations of the city.

SCHOOL DISTRICTS
In a traditional public school district, voters elect school board members, who set policy for the district, make spending decisions and hire and fire its executive, the superintendent. However, the state Board of Education and the Education Department have the authority to seize control of a district and dissolve its elected board, under circumstances. In the event of a takeover, the (unelected) state Education Commissioner serves as the board until the district is returned to local control.
The state took control of the Little Rock School District in Jan. 2015 due to six out of the district's 48 campuses being deemed in "academic distress." In 2016, the state returned the Pulaski County Special School District to local control after five years of state takeover, and voters elected new members to the PCSSD school board in November. The Jacksonville-North Pulaski District, which was formerly part of the PCSSD, achieved full autonomy in 2016.
Traditional school districts are funded by local property tax revenue, state revenue and federal funds. In addition to its four traditional public school districts, Pulaski County is also home to a number of charter schools (which are publicly funded but privately administered) and private schools.
