neg: Neo-romanticism The term neo-romanticism is used to cover a variety of movements in philosophy , literature , music , painting , and architecture , as well as social movements , that exist after and incorporate elements from the era of Romanticism . It has been used with reference to late-19th-century composers such as Richard Wagner particularly by Carl Dahlhaus who describes his music as `` a late flowering of romanticism in a positivist age '' . He regards it as synonymous with `` the age of Wagner '' , from about 1850 until 1890 -- the start of the era of modernism , whose leading early representatives were Richard Strauss and Gustav Mahler . It has been applied to writers , painters , and composers who rejected , abandoned , or opposed realism , naturalism , or avant-garde modernism at various points in time from about 1840 down to the present .

neg: Anton van Rooy Anton van Rooy ( 1 January 1870 -- 28 November 1932 ) was a Dutch bass-baritone . He had a voice of enormous proportions and is most remembered for his association with the music dramas of Richard Wagner , especially the Ring Cycle , The Mastersingers of Nuremberg and Parsifal .   Born in Rotterdam , van Rooy studied with the famous voice teacher Julius Stockhausen in Frankfurt . He made his operatic debut at the Bayreuth Festival in 1897 , singing Wotan in Der Ring des Nibelungen . The year 1898 saw his debuts in Berlin and at the Royal Opera House in London ; and on 14 December that same year he sang for the first time at the Metropolitan Opera , New York City , as Wotan in Die Walküre .   He remained with the Met until 1908 , during which time he was heard in all the leading baritone Wagnerian roles . Most notably , he created Amfortas in the American premiere of Parsifal in 1903 . Four years later , he created the part of John the Baptist in the initial New York production of Richard Strauss 's then controversial opera , Salome .   Van Rooy also continued to sing regularly at Bayreuth until 1903 , when he was banned by Cosima Wagner from any further performances at the festival , because the Met performances of Parsifal that he had participated in breached German copyright law . His appearances in London spanned the years 1898-1913 . He made gramophone discs and cylinder recordings , too , and was a noted song recitalist and soloist in oratorio .   Although the acoustically recorded discs and cylinders that van Rooy cut during the early 1900s were incapable of capturing the full majesty of his voice , they do demonstrate the strength of his high notes , the dark beauty of his tone and the sensitivity of his phrasing . They show why , to quote the Oxford Dictionary of Opera ( second edition ) , `` he was considered the finest -LSB- Hans -RSB- Sachs , Kurwenal and Wotan of the first decade '' of the 20th century . ( Fortunately , some of his recordings are available on CD reissues . )   After leaving the Metropolitan Opera , van Rooy became the leading Wagnerian baritone of the Frankfurt Opera ; but by this juncture his voice had deteriorated prematurely due to vigorous over-use and his willingness to sing roles with a higher range than was ideal for his sonorous instrument .   Anton van Rooy died in Munich in 1932 , at the age of 62 .

neg: Concert piece A concert piece ( German : Konzertstück , also Concertstuck ; French : pièce de concert , also morceau de concert ) is a musical composition , in most cases in one movement , intended for performance in a concert . Usually it is written for one or more virtuoso instrumental soloists and orchestral or piano accompaniment .   In some cases concert pieces start with a separate opening movement , or are otherwise in more than one movement or section . A piece that presents itself as a miniature concerto is rather called concertino than concert piece , although in German several such concertinos are known as Konzertstücke . For instance Siegfried Wagner 's Flute Concertino was published as . Incomplete concerto movements by Beethoven and Schubert were retroactively designated as concert pieces . Schumann 's 1841 Fantasia for piano and orchestra , in form similar to Weber 's Konzertstück , was later rewritten and expanded with two further movements into his Piano Concerto Op. 54 . When the soloist is a vocalist , the piece rather belongs to the concert aria genre . Some concert pieces are written for instrumental soloists exclusively , while also concert pieces for orchestra without soloist exist . In this sense as well Chopin 's Allegro de concert for solo piano as Tchaikovsky 's Romeo and Juliet for orchestra can be called concert pieces . A concert overture is an overture which is conceived as a stand-alone concert piece .

neg: Lyric Symphony The Lyric Symphony , Op. 18 , was composed by Alexander von Zemlinsky between 1922 and 1923 and received its premiere in Prague on June 4 , 1924 , under the composer 's direction . It is Zemlinsky 's best-known work .   The work is in seven connected movements and is scored for baritone and soprano soloists and a large orchestra . The sung texts are taken from The Gardener by Rabindranath Tagore in a German translation by Hans Effenberger .   The movements are :  Ich bin friedlos , ich bin durstig nach fernen Dingen ( `` I am restless . I am athirst for far-away things '' )  O Mutter , der junge Prinz ( `` O mother , the young Prince '' )  Du bist die Abendwolke ( `` You are the evening cloud '' )  Sprich zu mir Geliebter ( `` Speak to me , my love '' )  Befrei mich von den Banden deiner Süße , Lieb ( `` Release me from the bonds of your sweetness , Love '' )  Vollende denn das letzte Lied ( `` Then finish the last song '' )  Friede , mein Herz ( `` Peace , my heart '' )   Alban Berg quoted the third movement in his Lyric Suite for string quartet .

neg: Literary fragment Literary fragments may comprise :   works inadvertently left unfinished or never completed by their authors  surviving extracts of larger works subsequently lost as wholes  works deliberately constructed as fragmentary pieces   The deliberately undeveloped literary sort of fragment played an especially important role in literary Romanticism . German literature of the Romantic period has left many such fragments . In English literature , note Coleridge 's unfinished ( but published as a fragment in 1816 ) `` Kubla Khan ; or , A Vision in a Dream : A Fragment '' .  - mw supoeowososksks alhuakbar

neg: Kreisleriana Kreisleriana , Op. 16 , is a composition in eight movements by Robert Schumann for solo piano , subtitled . It was written in only four days in April 1838 and a revised version appeared in 1850 . The work was dedicated to Frédéric Chopin , but when a copy was sent to the Polish composer , `` he commented favorably only on the design of the title page '' . Kreisleriana is a very dramatic work and is considered to be one of Schumann 's finest compositions . In 1839 , soon after publishing it , Schumann called it in a letter `` my favourite work , '' remarking that `` The title conveys nothing to any but Germans . Kreisler is one of E. T. A. Hoffmann 's creations , an eccentric , wild , and witty conductor . '' In 1843 , when he had moved from writing for solo piano to much larger works , in particular Paradise and the Peri , he still listed it as one of his best piano works   The work 's title was inspired by the character of Johannes Kreisler from works of E. T. A. Hoffmann . Like the kaleidoscopic Kreisler , each number has multiple contrasting sections , resembling the imaginary musician 's manic-depression , and recalling Schumann 's own `` Florestan '' and `` Eusebius , '' the two characters Schumann used to indicate his own contrasting impulsive and dreamy sides . Johannes Kreisler appears in several books by Hoffmann , including Kater Murr and most notably in the Kreisleriana section of , published in 1814 .   In a letter to Clara , Schumann reveals that she has figured largely in the composition of Kreisleriana : `` I 'm overflowing with music and beautiful melodies now - imagine , since my last letter I 've finished another whole notebook of new pieces . I intend to call it Kreisleriana . You and one of your ideas play the main role in it , and I want to dedicate it to you - yes , to you and nobody else - and then you will smile so sweetly when you discover yourself in it . ''

neg: Heinrich Leopold Wagner Heinrich Leopold Wagner ( 19 February 1747 -- 4 March 1779 ) was a German dramatist .   Wagner was born in Strasbourg and is chiefly known for his 1776 tragedy Die Kindermörderin . He died , aged 32 , in Frankfurt .

neg: Cello Concerto (Schumann) The Cello Concerto in A minor , Op. 129 , by Robert Schumann was completed in a period of only two weeks , between 10 October and 24 October 1850 , shortly after Schumann became the music director at Düsseldorf .   The concerto was never played in Schumann 's lifetime . It was premiered on 9 June 1860 , four years after his death , at the Leipzig Conservatory in a concert in honour of the 50th anniversary of Schumann 's birth , with Ludwig Ebert as soloist .   The length of a typical performance is about 25 minutes .

neg: Moses und Aron Moses und Aron ( English : Moses and Aaron ) is a three-act opera by Arnold Schoenberg with the third act unfinished . The German libretto is by the composer after the Book of Exodus . Hungarian composer Zoltán Kocsis completed the last act , with Schoenberg 's heirs ' permission , in 2010 , but Moses und Aron was almost always performed as Schoenberg left it in 1932 , with only two of the planned three acts completed .

neg: Die Walküre Die Walküre ( The Valkyrie ) , WWV 86B , is a music drama in three acts by Richard Wagner with a German libretto by the composer . It is the second of the four works that form Wagner 's cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen ( The Ring of the Nibelung ) .   The story of Die Walküre is based on the Norse mythology told in the Volsunga Saga and the Poetic Edda . In Norse mythology , a valkyrie is one in a group of female figures who decide which soldiers die in battle and which live . Die Walküre 's best-known excerpt is the `` Ride of the Valkyries '' .   It received its premiere at the Königliches Hof - und National-Theater in Munich on 26 June 1870 . Wagner originally intended the work to be premiered as part of the entire cycle , but was forced to allow the performance at the insistence of his patron King Ludwig II of Bavaria . It was first presented as part of the complete cycle on 14 August 1876 at Wagner 's Bayreuth Festival . The work made its United States premiere at the Academy of Music in New York on 2 April 1877 .

neg: Walter Wagner (notary) Walter Wagner ( 1907 or 1908 -- May 1945 ) was the notary who married Adolf Hitler to Eva Braun in the Führerbunker on 29 April 1945 .   Wagner was a lawyer , and a member of the Nazi Party . He was known to Joseph Goebbels , who had previously worked with him in Berlin . As the Allies approached Berlin he had been drafted into the army . When Hitler told Goebbels of his intention to marry , Goebbels had Wagner summoned to the bunker . When he arrived on 28 April he discovered that the proper paperwork was not available . Later that evening he had obtained the documentation and was able to perform the ceremony just after midnight . The event was witnessed by Goebbels and Martin Bormann . Immediately afterwards Wagner rejoined his unit . He was killed only a few days later during the Battle of Berlin .   The scene of Hitler 's wedding is depicted in the films Hitler : The Last Ten Days , The Bunker and Der Untergang ( Downfall ) , all of which portray Wagner , in accordance with Nazi law , asking Hitler and Braun to confirm that they were of pure `` Aryan '' descent before the marriage can proceed .

neg: Dante Symphony A Symphony to Dante 's Divine Comedy , S. 109 , or simply the `` Dante Symphony '' , is a program symphony composed by Franz Liszt . Written in the high romantic style , it is based on Dante Alighieri 's journey through Hell and Purgatory , as depicted in The Divine Comedy . It was premiered in Dresden in November 1857 , with Liszt himself conducting , and was unofficially dedicated to the composer 's friend and future son-in-law Richard Wagner . The entire symphony takes approximately 45 minutes to perform .   Some critics have argued that the Dante Symphony is not so much a symphony in the classical sense as it is two descriptive symphonic poems . Regardless , Dante consists of two movements , both in a loosely structured ternary form with little use of thematic transformation .

neg: Erwin Ratz Erwin Ratz ( 22 December 1898 , Graz -- 12 December 1973 , Vienna ) was an Austrian musicologist and music theorist . He studied musicology with Guido Adler and composition with Arnold Schoenberg and was active in the Schoenberg circle . In 1921 and 1922 , due to straightened financial circumstances , he worked at the Bauhaus in Weimar as a secretary . After World War II he was a professor of musical form and analysis in Vienna . He is best known for his work Einführung in die musikalische Formenlehre ( `` Introduction to Musical Form '' ) , which is devoted primarily to the work of Bach and Beethoven , and for his role in editing Mahler 's works as President of the ` International Gustav Mahler Gesellschaft ' in Vienna . From 1960 Ratz fought against the efforts of Deryck Cooke and others to create performable editions of Mahler 's unfinished Tenth Symphony , insisting in articles and interviews that no such attempt could be legitimate given the state of Mahler 's draft .

neg: Symphony No. 3 (Bruckner) Anton Bruckner 's Symphony No. 3 in D minor , WAB 103 , was dedicated to Richard Wagner and is sometimes known as his `` Wagner Symphony '' . It was written in 1873 , revised in 1877 and again in 1889 .   The work has been characterised as `` difficult '' , and is regarded by some as Bruckner 's artistic breakthrough . According to Rudolf Kloiber , the third symphony `` opens the sequence of Bruckner 's masterpieces , in which his creativity meets monumental ability of symphonic construction . '' The work is notorious as the most-revised of Bruckner 's symphonies , and there exist no fewer than six versions , with three of them , the 1873 original version , the 1877-78 version , and the composer 's last thoughts of 1889 , being widely performed today .

neg: Rinaldo (cantata) Rinaldo , a cantata for tenor solo , four-part male chorus and orchestra , was begun by Johannes Brahms in 1863 as an entry for a choral competition announced in Aachen . He chose as his text the dramatic poem of the same name by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe , which presents an episode from the epic Gerusalemme Liberata by Torquato Tasso in the form of a series of dialogues between the knight Rinaldo , who has been enchanted by the witch Armida , and his fellow knights , who are calling him back to the path of duty .   The part of Armida is not sung as she makes only a silent appearance . Although the work was four-fifths completed in 1863 , Brahms laid it aside and only finished it in 1868 after the success of his A German Requiem .   The work is scored for piccolo , two flutes , two oboes , two clarinets , two bassoons , two horns , two trumpets , three trombones , timpani , tenor solo , four-part men 's chorus , and strings . A typical performance lasts between 36 and 40 minutes .   The premiere took place in Vienna on 28 February 1869 at a concert of the Akademischer Gesangverein . The composer conducted , with the tenor Gustav Walter , a student chorus numbering 300 , and the Court Opera orchestra . Rinaldo was subsequently published as Brahms ' Op. 50 . It has never been popular , but is interesting on a number of counts , not least because it may give the closest idea of what an opera by Brahms would have sounded like .

neg: Piano Concerto No. 6 (Beethoven) Piano Concerto No. 6 in D major , Hess 15 is an unfinished piano concerto by German composer Ludwig van Beethoven .   In ( estimated ) late 1814 and early 1815 , Beethoven spent a great deal of time on a project that never reached completion : a piano concerto in D major , which would if completed have been the sixth . He made about seventy pages of sketches for the first movement . He even started writing out a full score ( MS Artaria 184 in the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin ) , which runs almost uninterrupted from the beginning of the movement to the middle of the solo exposition ( bar 182 ) , although the scoring becomes patchy as the work proceeds and there are signs of indecision or dissatisfaction on the composer 's part . Beethoven abandoned the work , and this partial movement ( known as Hess 15 ) remains one of the most substantial of Beethoven 's unrealized conceptions .   A completion of the first movement was reconstructed by British scholar Nicholas Cook in 1987 .

neg: Rob Wagner Robert Leicester Wagner ( August 2 , 1872 -- July 20 , 1942 ) was the editor and publisher of Script , a weekly literary film magazine published in Beverly Hills , California , between 1929 and 1949 .   Rob Wagner was a magazine writer , screenwriter , director and artist before founding the liberal magazine that focused its coverage on the film industry and California and national politics . Its leftist leanings attracted many of the best artists and writers during the Depression .

neg: Scenes from Goethe's Faust Scenes from Goethe 's Faust ( Szenen aus Goethes Faust ) has been described as the height of composer Robert Schumann 's accomplishments in the realm of dramatic music . The work was written between 1844 and 1853 and is scored for SATB chorus , boys ' chorus , orchestra , and a number of solo parts which , even with doubling , require seven solo singers , although eight ( three sopranos , two mezzos , one tenor , one baritone , and one bass ) is the usual number for a performance . Schumann never saw all three parts of the work performed in the same concert , or published together . Eric Sams comments ` There is no coherence in the orchestration , which audibly dates from two different periods ( hand-horns in Part III , valve-horns elsewhere ) ' , leading him to conclude that Schumann did not conceive the work as a whole , although late nineteenth-century ideas of performance mean that in the modern era the piece is predominantly heard with all three parts .   Schumann 's work on what he labeled an oratorio began in 1842 . This was just over a decade after the death of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe , who completed Part Two of the dramatic poem Faust in his final year . Many contemporary readers of Faust found Goethe 's epic poem daunting and difficult to grasp . Goethe himself declared only Mozart fit to write the music for it ( though Mozart died in 1791 , almost 20 years prior to the completion of Part One of Faust ) .   Schumann explained the weight of the task before him in an 1845 letter to Felix Mendelssohn : '' -LSB- A -RSB- ny composer would not only be judged by his treatment of one of the seminal and most-widely acclaimed works in German literature , but would also be setting himself up to be compared to Mozart . '' Yet despite Schumann 's expressed reservations about the work , it has been labeled his `` magnum opus . '' Schumann is '' -LSB- d -RSB- eeply sensitive to the all-inclusiveness of Goethe 's drama -LSB- . -RSB- '' From the work 's dark and tense overture , to its elegant and tranquil conclusion , Schumann opens wide `` a manifold musical world '' that coherently draws together elements of `` lied , horror opera , grand opera , oratorio , and church music . ''   Schumann 's music suggests the struggle between good and evil at the heart of Goethe 's work , as well as Faust 's tumultuous search for enlightenment and peace . After the overture , the music depicts Faust 's wooing of Gretchen . For Gretchen 's story , Schumann employs operatic music , beginning with a love duet , proceeding to Gretchen 's passionate and desperate aria , and concluding with a church scene . The second part of the work opens with stark contrast : on the one hand , the lively , fresh music of Ariel and the spirits calls Faust to savor the beauties of nature ; on the other hand , in the scene following , Schumann 's restless orchestration brings to the fore Faust 's delusions upon hearing of a new world being created and its rapturous promise of an everlasting present . The final scenes , drawing the work to its placid yet unsettled conclusion , hold some of Schumann 's best choral writing .   Scenes from Goethe 's Faust has often been overlooked within Schumann 's impressive oeuvre , but has enjoyed a resurgence since the 1970s . The piece has been deemed among Schumann 's most moving works , and a pinnacle of his quintessential Romantic concern with the extra-musical ( and especially literary ) potential of musical expression .

neg: A Class Act A Class Act is a quasi-autobiographical musical loosely based on the life of composer-lyricist Edward Kleban , who died at the age of 48 in 1987 . Featuring a book by Linda Kline and Lonny Price along with music and lyrics by Kleban himself , the musical uses flashbacks and the device of time running backwards to retrace the high and low points of the composer 's personal and professional life .   The original production concept was haphazardly thrown together by Kleban 's close friend and author of the book by using a trunkful of songs that Kleban had written for a number of unproduced musicals , and writing new scenes or reworking original scenes around them , with Price polishing up the results .   In addition to serving as a tribute to one of the award-winning collaborators of A Chorus Line , A Class Act provides yet another behind-the-scenes glimpse at how a musical is created and brought to the stage . In contrast to A Chorus Line however , the piece offers a considerably more severe warning as well about how an artist 's personal life -- including struggles with mental illness and cancer -- can interfere with , obstruct , and eventually doom his professional as well as his personal pursuits .

neg: The Man Without Qualities The Man Without Qualities ( 1930 -- 43 ; German : Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften ) is an unfinished modernist novel in three volumes and various drafts , by the late Austrian writer Robert Musil . It is typically considered to be one of the most significant European novels of the twentieth century .   The novel is a `` story of ideas '' , which takes place in the time of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy 's last days , and the plot often veers into allegorical dissections on a wide range of existential themes concerning humanity and feelings . It has a particular concern with the values of truth and opinion and how society organizes ideas about life and society , though the book is well over a thousand pages long in its entirety , and so no one single theme dominates .

neg: List of former DuMont Television Network affiliates This is a partial list of affiliate stations of the DuMont Television Network , which operated in the United States from 1946 to 1956 . At its peak in 1954 , DuMont was affiliated with around 200 TV stations . In its later years , DuMont was carried mostly on poorly watched UHF channels or had only secondary affiliations on VHF stations . The DuMont affiliation ending dates listed here are somewhat tentative in several cases ; DuMont ended most operations on April 1 , 1955 , and honored network commitments until August 1956 .   Many stations in the early years of television affiliated with more than one network . There were not enough local stations in most cities for each of the four major networks to have an affiliate , leading to the four networks ( as well as a number of smaller networks ) to fight for air time . Local TV stations were free to `` cherry-pick '' which programs they would broadcast . Many of DuMont 's `` affiliates '' carried very little DuMont programming , choosing to air one or two more popular programs ( such as Life Is Worth Living , which was aired by 169 stations during the 1953 -- 1954 season ) and/or sports programming on the weekends . Few stations carried the full DuMont program line-up .   DuMont 's advertising revenues depended on being able to be viewed nationwide . As a result , the company made affiliation agreements which have been described as `` a crazy patchwork of deals '' . In many cities , DuMont was affiliated with more than one TV station in order to get more of its programming cleared for broadcast . No definitive list of affiliated stations from 1946 to 1956 exists , and many sources contradict one another .   DuMont 's owned-and-operated stations are highlighted in yellow . The Paramount owned-and-operated stations , which did n't carry DuMont programs but were ruled DuMont O&O s by the FCC , are shown in pink .

neg: The Simpsons The Simpsons is an American animated sitcom created by Matt Groening for the Fox Broadcasting Company . The series is a satirical depiction of working-class life epitomized by the Simpson family , which consists of Homer , Marge , Bart , Lisa , and Maggie . The show is set in the fictional town of Springfield and parodies American culture , society , television , and the human condition .   The family was conceived by Groening shortly before a solicitation for a series of animated shorts with producer James L. Brooks . Groening created a dysfunctional family and named the characters after members of his own family , substituting Bart for his own name . The shorts became a part of The Tracey Ullman Show on April 19 , 1987 . After a three-season run , the sketch was developed into a half-hour prime time show and became an early hit for Fox , becoming the network 's first series to land in the Top 30 ratings in a season ( 1989 -- 90 ) .   Since its debut on December 17 , 1989 , episodes of The Simpsons have been broadcast . Its 28th season began on September 25 , 2016 . It is the longest-running American sitcom and the longest-running American animated program , and , in 2009 , it surpassed Gunsmoke as the longest-running American scripted primetime television series . The Simpsons Movie , a feature-length film , was released in theaters worldwide on July 27 , 2007 , and grossed over $ 527 million . On November 4 , 2016 , the series was renewed for a twenty-ninth and thirtieth season of 22 episodes each , extending the show to 2019 .   The Simpsons received widespread critical acclaim throughout its first nine seasons , which are generally considered its `` Golden Age '' . Time named it the 20th century 's best television series , and Erik Adams of The A.V. Club named it `` television 's crowning achievement regardless of format '' . On January 14 , 2000 , the Simpson family was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame . It has won dozens of awards since it debuted as a series , including 31 Primetime Emmy Awards , 30 Annie Awards , and a Peabody Award . Homer 's exclamatory catchphrase `` D'oh ! '' has been adopted into the English language , while The Simpsons has influenced many adult-oriented animated sitcoms . Despite this , the show has also been criticized for what many perceive as a decline in quality over the years .

The format of Sesame Street consists of a combination of commercial television production elements and techniques which have evolved to reflect the changes in American culture and the audience 's viewing habits . With the creation of Sesame Street , producers and writers of a children 's television show used , for the first time , educational goals and a curriculum to shape its content . It was also the first time a show 's educational effects were studied .   Shortly after creating Sesame Street , its producers developed what came to be called the `` CTW model '' ( after the production company 's previous name ) , a system of television show planning , production , and evaluation based on collaborations between producers , writers , educators , and researchers . The show was initially funded by government and private foundations but has become somewhat self-supporting due to revenues from licensing arrangements , international sales , and other media . By 2006 , there were independently produced versions , or `` co-productions '' , of Sesame Street broadcast in twenty countries . In 2001 there were over 120 million viewers of various international versions of Sesame Street , and by the show 's 40th anniversary in 2009 , it was broadcast in more than 140 countries .

The shorts became a part of The Tracey Ullman Show on April 19 , 1987 and after a three-season run , the sketch was developed into a half-hour prime time show and became a hit series for Fox . The growing popularity of the series motivated video game developers to create video games based on the series .

Additionally , several handheld device games have been released , such as Bartman : Avenger of Evil ( 1990 ) and Bart Simpson 's Cupcake Crisis ( 1991 ) .

neg: Neighbours Neighbours is an Australian television soap opera . It was first broadcast on the Seven Network on 18 March 1985 . It was created by TV executive Reg Watson , who proposed the idea of making a show that focused on realistic stories and portrayed adults and teenagers who talk openly and solve their problems together . Seven decided to commission the show following the success of Watson 's Sons and Daughters , which aired on the network . Although successful in Melbourne , Neighbours underperformed in the Sydney market and struggled for months before Seven cancelled it . The show was immediately bought by rival network Ten . After taking over production of the show , the new network had to build replica sets because Seven destroyed the originals to prevent its rival from obtaining them . Ten began screening Neighbours on 20 January 1986 , taking off where the previous series left off and commencing with episode 171 . Neighbours has since become the longest running drama series in Australian television and in 2005 , it was inducted collectively into the Logie Hall of Fame . On 11 January 2011 , Neighbours moved to Ten 's digital channel , Eleven .   The show 's storylines concern the domestic and professional lives of the people who live and work in Erinsborough , a fictional suburb of Melbourne , Victoria . The series primarily centres on the residents of Ramsay Street , a short cul-de-sac , and its neighbouring area , the Lassiters complex , which includes a bar , hotel , cafe , police station , lawyers ' office and park . Neighbours began with three families created by Watson -- the Ramsays , the Robinsons and the Clarkes . Watson said that he wanted to show three families who are friends living in a small street . The Robinsons and the Ramsays had a long history and were involved in an ongoing rivalry . Pin Oak Court , in Vermont South , is the real cul-de-sac that has doubled for Ramsay Street since 1985 . All of the houses featured are real and the residents allow the production to shoot external scenes in their yards . The interior scenes are filmed at the Global Television studios in Forest Hill .   Through its entire run in Australia , Neighbours has been screened as a twenty-two-minute episode each week night in an early-evening slot . In Australia it is currently broadcast each weeknight at 6:30 pm on Eleven . The show is produced by FremantleMedia and has been sold to over sixty countries around the world , making it one of Australia 's most successful media exports . Neighbours was first screened in the United Kingdom in October 1986 on BBC1 where it achieved huge popularity among British audiences in the late 1980s and 1990s . In 2008 , it moved to the UK 's Channel 5 .

neg: Key demographic The key demographic is a term in television ratings that refers to the most desirable demographic group to a given advertiser . Key demographics vary by network , time of day , and programming type , but they are generally composed of individuals who are younger and more affluent than the general public : `` Young adult viewers have been TV 's target demographic for decades , because they 're thought to have less brand loyalty and more disposable income . '' Most key demographic groups consist of adults who are somewhere in age between 18 and 54 . For example , the key demographic for reality television is women with disposable income aged 18 to 34 whereas for the WB Television Network it is `` eighteen - to thirty-four-year-old , educated , white , affluent viewers '' Television programming is tailored to members of its key demographics : `` Despite the increase in time-shifting to watch recorded television and shows on the Internet , the use of television as an advertising vehicle is still determined by demographic characteristics or who is watching at what time . '' The subset of ratings that only includes the key demographic of 18 - to 49-year-olds is often referred to as the `` key demo '' . Certain radio formats ( especially those dubbed `` classic '' ) and television outlets may target persons 35 to 64 , especially since the late 2000s recession wiped out many career opportunities for millennials , since the 35 -- 64 demographic has much more disposable income .

neg: Paramount Television Network The Paramount Television Network ( PTN ) was a venture by American film corporation Paramount Pictures to organize a television network in the late 1940s . The company built television stations KTLA in Los Angeles and WBKB in Chicago ; it also invested US$ 400,000 in the DuMont Television Network , which operated stations WABD in New York City , WTTG in Washington , D.C. , and WDTV in Pittsburgh . Escalating disputes between Paramount and DuMont concerning breaches of contract , company control , and network competition erupted regularly between 1940 and 1956 , and culminated in the dismantling of the DuMont Network . Television historian Timothy White called the clash between the two companies `` one of the most unfortunate and dramatic episodes in the early history of the television industry . ''   The Paramount Television Network aired several programs , including the Emmy Award-winning children 's series Time for Beany . Filmed in Hollywood , the programs were distributed to an ad-hoc network of stations across the United States . The network signed affiliation agreements with more than 50 television stations in 1950 ; despite this , most of Paramount 's series were not widely viewed outside the West Coast . The Federal Communications Commission ( FCC ) , which filed suit against Paramount for anti-trust violations , prevented the studio from acquiring additional television stations . Paramount executives eventually gave up on the idea of a television network , and continued to produce series for other networks . In 1995 , after four decades of television production for other companies , Paramount re-entered the broadcast network field when the company and Chris-Craft Industries launched the United Paramount Network ( UPN ) , a television network that operated until 2006 . Paramount 's television division is now owned by CBS Television Studios .

neg: Philip Morris Playhouse Philip Morris Playhouse is a 30-minute old-time radio dramatic anthology series .   The program '' -LSB- g -RSB- enerally ... featured straight and crime drama , '' radio historian John Dunning wrote . He noted that one of the directors was William Spier , who `` had directed Suspense in its salad days and brought to The Philip Morris Playhouse the same slick production '' that was used in Suspense .   Philip Morris Playhouse was broadcast on CBS June 30 , 1939 -- February 18 , 1944 , then returned to the air ( again on CBS ) November 5 , 1948 -- July 29 , 1949 . The 1948 edition replaced a giveaway show , Everybody Wins . Its third and final incarnation on radio was a bit more complicated , as explained on The Digital Deli Too website : The emerging popularity of between three and five other popular playhouse formats of the early 1950s persuaded Philip Morris to resurrect its Philip Morris Playhouse a third time as Phillip Morris Playhouse On Broadway , beginning with its initial CBS run on March 15 , 1951 . Emphasizing Broadway productions , the subsequent series ran over CBS for twenty-six installments , only to jump to NBC on September 11 , 1951 . The series ran on NBC for the remainder of 1951 , jumping back to CBS on January 13 , 1952 . CBS aired the remainder of the canon through September 2 , 1953 .   In 1951 , a trade publication reported that the program 's annual budget was $ 1 million .

neg: Pilot (Friday Night Lights) `` Pilot '' is the first episode of the sports drama television series Friday Night Lights . The episode premiered on the NBC network on October 3 , 2006 . It introduces the men and women involved with the Dillon Panthers , a Texas high school football team . In the pilot episode , the team is preparing for the first game of the season , which will be the first game under new head coach Eric Taylor .   The show is based on the 2004 film Friday Night Lights , which was in turn based on the 1990 non-fiction book Friday Night Lights : A Town , a Team , and a Dream by H. G. Bissinger . Peter Berg , who is Bissinger 's cousin and who directed the film , wrote and directed the pilot episode , and served as executive producer for the series . While some of the actors from the movie returned to act on the show , most of the actors were cast specifically for the television series .   Critical reception of the show was good to average , with a general appreciation for the realistic portrayal of Middle America . Generally speaking , however , there were serious doubts about whether the show would be able to stay on the air very long , though it has since gone on to complete five seasons . The episode 's viewership of just over seven million was characterized as disappointing , though it did relatively well among men aged 18 to 34 .

neg: Community structure In the study of complex networks , a network is said to have community structure if the nodes of the network can be easily grouped into ( potentially overlapping ) sets of nodes such that each set of nodes is densely connected internally . In the particular case of non-overlapping community finding , this implies that the network divides naturally into groups of nodes with dense connections internally and sparser connections between groups . But overlapping communities are also allowed . The more general definition is based on the principle that pairs of nodes are more likely to be connected if they are both members of the same community ( ies ) , and less likely to be connected if they do not share communities . A related but different problem is community search , here the goal is to find a community that a certain vertex belongs to .

neg: David Berkowitz David Richard Berkowitz ( born Richard David Falco ; June 1 , 1953 ) , known also as the Son of Sam and the .44 Caliber Killer , is an American serial killer who was convicted of eight separate shooting attacks that began in New York City during the summer of 1976 . The crimes were perpetrated with a .44 caliber Bulldog revolver . He killed six people and wounded seven others by July 1977 . As the number of victims increased , Berkowitz eluded the biggest police manhunt in the history of New York City while leaving letters that mocked the police and promised further crimes , which were highly publicized by the press . The killing spree terrorized New Yorkers and achieved worldwide notoriety .   On the evening of August 10 , 1977 , Berkowitz was taken into custody by New York City police homicide detectives in front of his Yonkers apartment building , and he was subsequently indicted for eight shooting incidents . He confessed to all of them , and claimed to have been obeying the orders of a demon , manifested in the form of a dog `` Harvey '' who belonged to his neighbor `` Sam '' . Despite his explanation , Berkowitz was found mentally competent to stand trial . He pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was incarcerated in state prison . In the course of further police investigation , Berkowitz was also implicated in many unsolved arsons in the city .   Intense coverage of the case by the media lent a kind of celebrity status to Berkowitz , and some observers noted that he seemed to enjoy it . In response , the New York State legislature enacted new legal statutes , known popularly as `` Son of Sam laws '' , designed to keep criminals from profiting financially from the publicity created by their crimes . Despite various amendments and legal challenges , the statutes have remained law in New York , and similar laws have been enacted in several other states .   Berkowitz has been imprisoned since his arrest and is serving six consecutive life sentences . During the mid-1990s , he amended his confession to claim that he had been a member of a violent Satanic cult that orchestrated the incidents as ritual murder . He remains the only person ever charged with the shootings , yet some law enforcement authorities have questioned whether Berkowitz 's claims are credible . A new investigation of the murders began during 1996 , but was suspended indefinitely after inconclusive findings .

neg: Sam Drucker Sam Drucker , portrayed by actor Frank Cady , is the operator of Drucker 's general store in the fictional community of Hooterville , which is seen in the television shows Petticoat Junction and Green Acres ( and occasionally in The Beverly Hillbillies ) . Drucker is the only resident of Hooterville to be a regular character in both Petticoat Junction and Green Acres . He is a supporting character in Petticoat Junction , but more of a main character in Green Acres , where he seems to be perhaps the only truly sane person . The New York Times describes Sam Drucker as `` a bit of a straight man to the colorfully zany folk '' of Hooterville . However , like other Hootervillians , he sees nothing unusual in the fact that Fred and Doris Ziffel 's `` son '' Arnold is a talking pig .   Drucker is provincial , but fairly intelligent . He earns a modest living , and he sleeps in the back room of the general store . In the Green Acres episode `` Milk Machine '' , Mr. Haney and Fred Ziffel ask Drucker for five hundred dollars to invest in a milk making machine . When he tells them he does n't have the money , Mr. Haney suggests getting a mortgage on the general store . Drucker tells him that he already has six mortgages on his store and is `` working on a seventh . '' Much ado is made of Sam Drucker 's baldness . In one episode , he dons a toupee for a photograph and notes that it is the first time he has worn it since high school . In another episode , he states , `` We Druckers skin out early . '' And in the Green Acres episode `` The Agricultural Student '' , Sam throws on his toupé and says he is `` Young Sam Drucker '' when a young blonde co-ed named Terry Harper needs a date for the barn dance .   Besides being the town grocer , Sam Drucker is also Hooterville 's postmaster , constable , Justice of the Peace , and Superintendent of Schools . And he is the editor , publisher , and apparently sole employee of the Hooterville World-Guardian , the town 's weekly newspaper . He operates a `` bank '' , which is merely a cash box kept under the counter in his store . In addition , Drucker is a fireman with the Hooterville Volunteer Fire Department , and plays the bass drum in the Hooterville Volunteer Fire Department Band .

neg: Uncle Sam (diamond) Uncle Sam is the nickname for the largest diamond ever discovered in the United States . It was found in 1924 in Murfreesboro , Arkansas at the Prairie Creek pipe mine , which later became known as the Crater of Diamonds State Park . The diamond was named `` Uncle Sam '' after the nickname of its finder , Wesley Oley Basham , a worker at the Arkansas Diamond Corporation .   The rough diamond as originally discovered weighed 40.23 carats ( 8.046 g ) . It was faceted twice by Schenck & Van Haelen of New York , a company which specialized in Arkansas diamonds , handling over 14,000 . The company described those diamonds as being so hard that they could only be cut using powder of other Arkansas diamonds . The final result was a 12.42-carat ( 2.484 g ) emerald-cut gem . It was characterized as M on the diamond color scale ; this nominally corresponds to a faint yellow color , but the visual impression of Uncle Sam has been variously described as white or slight pink . Judging from the color , the diamond is most likely of pure IIa diamond type meaning the amount of impurities it has is below a few parts per million . The clarity of the stone was assessed as VVS1 , which stands for Very Very Slightly Included and means the stone has minute non-diamond inclusions that are difficult for a skilled grader to see under 10x magnification .   The diamond was owned by the Peikin Jewelers of Fifth Avenue , New York . It was lent by Peikin to the American Museum of Natural History for temporary display and storage . In 1971 it was acquired by a Boston dealer , Sidney de Young , and sold for $ 150,000 to an anonymous private collector .   The discovery of Uncle Sam arguably rescued the Arkansas Diamond Corporation , which had a debt over US$ 276,470 by that time and was going to be shut down in the winter of 1924 . The number of diamonds found on the surface was decreasing , and the cost of digging operations was estimated as higher than the expected diamond recovery . Not that the value of the diamond was sufficient to cover the debts , but the discovery lifted the spirits enough to keep the surface operations . Currently , the Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas is the only public diamond mine in the world . Over 75,000 diamonds have been found here since the opening of the park in 1906 . The place where Uncle Sam was discovered is marked , and many additional diamonds have been found there .
