| | That 70's Show (Gotham Gazette. May 9, 2005) |
 | | But I think you can see that in a sense the city had to bottom out in a way for the people to be willing to endure the things that Giuliani did. | | | I think that's certainly a factor, but I think the aftermath of the 2003 blackout is a testament to the fact that the city is a much different place. | | | Naomi Dagen Bloom: What I am interested in is whether you had a sense that in 1977 things were going well for other cities. |

| | Distortions at 4th Hand |
| | David Andelman, May 2, 1977, speaks without qualification of "the purges that took hundreds of thousands of lives in the aftermath of the Communist capture of Phnom Penh on April 17, 1975." Even the U.S. Government sources on which journalists often uncritically rely advance no such claim, to our knowledge. | | | Ponchaud's book is based on his own personal experiences in Cambodia from 1965 until the capture of Phnom Penh, extensive interviews with refugees and reports from the Cambodian radio. | | | Elsewhere in the press, similar numbers are bandied about, with equal credibility. |

| | In future years, when New York would make dramatic strides to address the problems that surfaced in the seventies and forge a new image of national and world leadership, the memories of these times would linger as a reminder of how hard it could be to fall from skyscraper heights. | | | The "urban crisis" had become a permanent national emergency, claiming New York as its latest victim. | | | Because many of the problems behind the urban crisis remain unsolved despite the prosperity of recent years, the memories of the 1977 blackout have taken on the quality of morality play or myth, with widely diverging views of what the myth means. |

| | Following the elections in 1977, which ended with the same result, protesters were shot down by the hundreds and the UNO was banished, its leaders exiled or killed, its followers targets for arrest, torture and death. | | | During 1977 President Carter firmly committed the United States to work toward a order that respected individual human rights and responded to human aspirations. | | | The government responded by blocking all news coverage, and, in two days, it was announced that the PCN had, in fact, won. |

| | Ash : 1977 - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect |
| | Two-thirds of Ash were born in 1977, which means that their latter-day punk-pop isn't very catholic. | | | Instead of sticking to the rigid rules of American punk-pop -- which means you can't stretch the song past three minutes -- Ash take a cinematic approach to their songs, throwing in elements of power pop, glam, post-Nirvana grunge, and post-Oasis rock. | | | Sure, Ash still use loud guitars -- they're all over 1977 -- but they create a distinctive, melodic, and energetic sound that's equal parts heavy grunge and light pop. |

| | On the one hand there was the brilliant military strategist and leader who directed Allied forces in the Pacific against the Japanese in World War II and for the first half of the Koran War. | | | The 1977 film "MacArthur" is well aware that there were two sides to the controversial military leader Douglas MacArthur, and you can almost see the makers of this film flipping a coin to decide which side Gregory Peck gets to show in the next scene. | | | Peck considered this one of his favorite roles and fought with the producers over the screenplay and editing of the film -- and fought he should have because those very flaws kept this movie from being a great film. |

| | 1977 in film - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In 1977, however, it attracted heavy criticism and director George Lucas ultimately resigned from several film production guilds over his decision. | | | The film revolutionizes the use of special effects in film and television production, and also popularizes the notion of omitting any sort of opening credits sequence, something that would become commonplace in American cinema by the mid-1990s. | | | In the Academy Awards, Peter Finch, Faye Dunaway and Beatrice Straight win Best Actor and Actress and Supporting Actress awards for Network. |

| | Amazon.com: 1977: Music: Ash |
| | Ash's 1977 opens with the cheesy roar of a Star Wars TIE-fighter (did they have to pay royalties to the Lucas empire for that audio clip?), launching itself into a high-octane, quick energy groove, where it happy sits for its entirety. | | | One of the reviewers said that many people would consider Ash punk, or worse, pop punk. | | | Throw in some really great anthems about...well...girls, a song about Kung Fu, and a hidden track where Mark pukes his guts out (no...seriously), and you get 1977. |

| | The strong-willed Jackson and Martin bruised each other's egos right and left in 1977, but they patched up their differences long enough to work together in the common quest of bringing a World Series championship back to Yankee Stadium. | | | Jackson's removal and ensuing dugout confrontation with Martin during the Saturday afternoon game were captured by national-television cameras, and Reggie's spirits plunged. | | | New York, getting its second complete-game performance of the Series from Mike Torrez (an April acquisition from Oakland), rode Jackson's five RBIs to a clinching 8-4 triumph that earned the Yankees their first World Series crown since 1962 and 21st overall. |
