The_Vision_of_Judgment
|
The Vision of Judgment -LRB- 1822 -RRB- is a satirical poem in ottava rima by Lord Byron , which depicts a dispute in Heaven over the fate of George III 's soul . It was written in response to the Poet Laureate Robert Southey 's A Vision of Judgement -LRB- 1821 -RRB- , which had imagined the soul of king George triumphantly entering Heaven to receive his due . Byron was provoked by the High Tory point of view from which the poem was written , and he took personally Southey 's preface which had attacked those `` Men of diseased hearts and depraved imaginations '' who had set up a `` Satanic school '' of poetry , `` characterized by a Satanic spirit of pride and audacious impiety '' . He responded in the preface to his own Vision of Judgment with an attack on `` The gross flattery , the dull impudence , the renegado intolerance , and impious cant , of the poem '' , and mischievously referred to Southey as `` the author of Wat Tyler '' , an anti-royalist work from Southey 's firebrand revolutionary youth . His parody of A Vision of Judgement was so lastingly successful that , as the critic Geoffrey Carnall wrote , `` Southey 's reputation has never recovered from Byron 's ridicule . ''

Spiral_of_silence
|
The spiral of silence theory is a political science and mass communication theory proposed by the German political scientist Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann , which stipulates that individuals have a fear of isolation , which results from the idea that a social group or the society in general might isolate , neglect , or exclude members due to the members ' opinions . This fear of isolation consequently leads to remaining silent instead of voicing opinions . Media is an important factor that relates to both the dominant idea and people 's perception of the dominant idea . The assessment of one 's social environment may not always correlate with reality .

The album features 23 tracks and a bonus remix . The songs have all been digitally remastered and also remixed from the original master tapes . The quality of the sound is much clearer than any collection before , however , the mixes can sound drastically different from the original versions , especially the songs recorded between 1964 and 1969 . Having used the original elements from the original masters , the mixers were able to attain new recordings , with much clearer sounds , heavier bass and noticeably higher volume levels of the background vocals . Another peculiarity about several songs on this album is that they are longer than the original versions . The vocals and instrumentations are let go on until the musicians stopped playing and the girls finished singing , without fade-outs . These had never been heard before being issued on this album . Soundscan posts over 500,000 sold since release . The UK version of the album uses different masters of lesser quality , and the remixing and mastering that is exclusive to this album are missing . Also , `` I Hear a Symphony '' and `` The Boss '' have been removed and substituted by `` I 'm Still Waiting '' and `` Chain Reaction , '' which were both solo # 1 hits for Diana Ross in the UK .

Soledad_Canyon_Sand_and_Gravel_Mining_Project
|
The Soledad Canyon Sand and Gravel Mining Project is the legal name of a mining project in Northern Los Angeles County east of the City of Santa Clarita , CA . First mined in 1921 , the property was later mined by Curtis Sand and Gravel from the early 1960s until 1989 when , as a result of a legal settlement , the Bureau of Land Management put 2 10-year leases to mine sand and gravel from the site out to competitive bid . The contracts were awarded to Transit Mixed Concrete , which eventually sold them to Cemex Corporation . The former operator , Curtis Sand & Gravel , sued in an unsuccessful attempt to overturn the contracts . After Curtis ' legal options had been exhausted , the City of Santa Clarita started questioning the validity of Transit Mixed 's contracts as part of a public relations campaign to cause the mining contracts to be cancelled . The BLM approved the Project in 2000 by issuing a Record of Decision after a review process which lasted over 10 years . The city challenged the approval in court , alleging that the project would spoil air quality , increase traffic on the 14 Freeway and town roads and would threaten endangered fish and wildlife species . Eventually , Cemex , with the United States -LRB- Bureau of Land Management -RRB- intervening , successfully sued the County of Los Angeles for unreasonable delays . The result was a `` consent decree '' or settlement enjoining the county from further interference , and requiring the county to issue a permit and certify the EIR for the federally-approved project in 2004 . A 2008 United States District Court decision awarded Cemex attorney fees of $ 524,476.60 from the City of Santa Clarita . In the decision , Judge A. Howard Matz responded to the City 's claim that it 's action against decertifying the CEQA decision on the Soledad Canyon Sand and Gravel Mining Project constituted `` a CEQA Action -LRB- sic -RRB- as permitted under California law '' by pointing out that `` every party seeking to enforce CEQA or any comparable environmental statute - - indeed , all statutes , even anti-discrimination laws - - has the duty to comply with applicable professional and judicial requirements . Merely purporting to promote or protect a societal `` good '' or interest reflected in a statute does not immunize a plaintiff from the consequences of litigation abuse '' . The city 's PR campaign eventually forced Cemex to agree to a `` truce '' with the city which was intended to `` explore mutually acceptable solutions that will result in a win-win for both parties . '' During this time , the city and Cemex attempted to pass a number of bills through Congress to prevent mining in Soledad Canyon through California 's 25th district Representative Howard Buck McKeon , but none were successful . The first Bill , sponsored in the Senate by Barbara Boxer -LRB- D-CA -RRB- and co-sponsored by Senator Dianne Feinstein -LRB- D-CA -RRB- is S. 771 , the Soledad Canyon Settlement Act from 2013 . S. 771 and a subsequent piece of legislation sought to engage Congress to direct the Bureau of Land Management to sell vacant land in the desert near Victorville , CA the proceeds of which would go to Cemex Corporation to buy out their interest in mining Soledad Canyon . A subsequent Bill -LRB- S. 2938 -RRB- it 's House version successfully passed , was held up in the Senate for environmental reasons by Martin Heinrich , Democratic senator from New Mexico . Senator Heinrich objected to selling public lands as a budget offset to pay for the buyout of the mining contracts . On August 28 , 2015 the BLM issued a cancellation of the contracts , and the decision is currently being appealed by CEMEX . Cemex also filed a petition for stay which along with the Notice of Appeal , is to be heard in an administrative capacity by the Interior Board of Land Appeals . Congressman Steve Knight -LRB- politician -RRB- -LRB- who replaced Buck McKeon as representative of California 's 25th District in 2014 -RRB- `` welcomed an announcement by Cemex that -LSB- the BLM -RSB- will cancel their mining contracts in the Santa Clarita Valley '' . Any decision by the Interior Board of Land Appeals is expected to be appealed to the courts .
